Wil liam Hope, Bridgeport, ; Conn., newly-elected president of the American Institute of Account ants, asserted here last night, "Though we may be very com fortable at present, with . every thing somehow seeming to work out all right regardless pf the calamity howlers it appears that sound judgment should make it eminently necessary for us all to agree to a cutting down of the frills and wastes in government to pull in our belts, work a little harder, and sacrifice a few of our comforts under an austerity pro gram enforced by a non-political governmental .:. administration , " Hope said. Addressing a banquet session of the 12th annual Symposium on Taxation and Accounting at the Carolina Inn here tonight, Hope was introduced by Allen E. Strand, Greensboro, president of the North Carolina State Board of Certified Public Accountant Examiners. Frank L.

Prescott, Raleigh, both past president of the Associ ation, will be held in Chapel Hill Saturday morning. ' .riope, discussing the govern ment's fiscal policy, said "we must realize that the central - govern ment" has no income of its own that it can use for relief of the states, local governments and in dividuals; we the people finally pay all-of the bills. The re-routing of expenditures from us through the federal government does .nothing more than add more costs to the transactions; common sense should tell us how economP cally unsound this procedure ac tually is ;and the sooner we stop this riding on the Washington merry-go-round snatching at San-( ta Claus's brass ring, the sooner we will get back on a sound op erating basis." - Hope said that the national debt of 256 billion dollars sounds stag gering until it is checked against the productive capacity asset which currently yields annually an amount in value approximating the total of the debtr By BiU Peacock COLLEGE PARK, Md.

The Terps, darlings of the local fans after their tremendous victories over Washington and Lee, George Washington and Georgia, are confident of their first victory over the Tar Heels since 1926. Folks in these parts are taking Maryland and giv ing better than 14 points, so well do they like their chances. kjji paper tne Terps appear in vincible. They are the seventh ranked team nationally and come into the game with the third best rushing offense and the 5th. best Ltotal offense. Coach Jim. Tatum, a former coach andplayer at Car ; olina, has two sets of backs who Lhave moved the ball equally well from the spht-T formation.. Tatum will probably start Jack Scarbath, brilliant, at times last year, at quarterback, Bob She-, monski, the top scorer in the con- Cadet Corps Of Maryland Will Appear The Air Division of the Corps of Cadets of the University of Maryland will march on the field immediately prior to the Maryland-North Carolina game today.

What is the mysterious sound erupting from the walls of "A" dormitory? For three years the "Ghost of A" has been ejecting its shrill call day and night. What is the answer? The sinister menace of solitude breaks the silence of quiet halls and three - occupant rooms throughout the gloom of day and darkness of night. Strange noises are heard by the boys of "A" dorm and no one as yet has solved the creaking corri dor mystery. No one seems to have the answer. Theories are flying hot and heavy. Some "Dick Tracys" have come up with leads, but proof is still lacking to mn. vict the ectoplasmic sou pair inf haunting the dormitory. I Cne boy asserts that the origin, is in the showerroom and that the ghost is nothing, more than an un-oiled hot water faucet. Others say that it is a lazy occupant wb continually turns and twists in bed. Still more believe that the uninvited guest is a squirrel en chambered within the walls and for three years has been trying : to gnaw his way to freedom. What is the answer? We hate to think our 100 per cent "A" dorm ghost is only a rusty knob, or sloth-like student, or even a imprisoned rodent. Maybe someday we'll solve the caper, but right now we still have our doubts as to; 1 whether, th : sound is an hn.t-t cry of a Civil War hero or a POM. unromantic squeak in the water pipes.
