$dday.
The University Party has printed an explanation of the
Student. Party's explanation of the election. The Student
Party's Student Tar Heel was delivered Sunday night. The
University Party has the campus well covered-with election
posters. There is a loud speaker going full blast, in competi
tion with the Y court politicians.
So elections are definitely upon us. Today, that is. And be
lieve it or not, this election is important to you. Individually,
singly, and as the student body -of the University of North
Carolina.-
. Through your student legislature come the laws under
which you live while you are on this campus. Today 35 seats
in that legislature will be filled. v
- Through your student courts come-the justices or injustices
meted out under the campus law. One third of those seats will
be filled in today's election.
Possibly even, more important are three amendments. to the
Student Constitution to be presented to students for ratifica
tion : today. The Publications Board amendment is a weak
measure, but a move in the right direction. The abolishment of
Coed Senate and establishment of Women's residence Council
is a long-overdue move, and deserves a hearty "yes" from stu
dents. The third amendment is to remove an unused duty from
thb Men's Inter dormitory Council, and is largely a routine
clarification of the constitution. -
How ever you vote .. . -

. Carl Snavely is coach of the football team at the University-;
of North parolina. His team has lost most of its games
this; year. Rumor predicts his dismissal at the end of the
season.
A member of the athletic council in Chapel Hill declared:
"When alumni support crystallizes, it forces us to do some
thing." . . . . '
;Uose a game and the alumni grumble.
Lose most of the games and the alumni "force" the official
to do something.
Anyhow, the athletic authorities in Chapel Hill are honest
enough to admit who has the power, who is the boss and gives
the1 orders in big-time football.
Star Shows
After seeing 'Tall Star Fami
lies;" the Morehead Planeta
rium's third show of the season,
V have come Jto realize why the
presentations given there have so
little- appeal for the students. It
is -because they are not designed
r for that purpose. The manage
ment evidently feels that it can
best-justify its existance oh this
. campus? by .catering to large bus
loads' of school children and to
the .ladies, of Petunia Garden
: Circle Number 12, and the shows
; have: been planned accordingly.
This : naturally excuses their in
1 tellectually unstimulating quality,
but'itdoes not explain why they
are supposed to be of educational
or' entertainment value to anyone
else; - .. ' '

The Atlanta ConsfrituHon

Reviews and Previews
are visible at this time of year,
complete with cute pictures
superimposed over the star groups
they are intended to represent.
The stories themselves are not
without interest, but they are
narrated in a stilted, lifeless
manner which is no doubt the
result of too frequent repetition.
Aside from the stories,-the. show
consists of a long string of the
' usual Planetarium a clinches, in
cluding the final "Good morning,"
a trade mark having the rather
unfortunate effect of making one
feel as if he had wasted the -whole
night and not just an hour.
If the tone of the shows at the
Morehead Building remains the
same throughout the year, I hope,
that the management will insti-f
tute a policy of t giving merit;
badges, or at least gold .stars in
our workbooks, for attendance

Riff . . :
Have you ever seen a lit ciga
ret falling toward ' your - bare
foot and then found your leg
paralyzed? Have you ever
stepped on a step that wasn't
there? These are the exact sen
sations of a youth at a draft
board. You can almost feel the
hot breath of a drill sergeant
on the collar of your civie
sloppy-Joe sweater.
The whole process of signing
up as a prospective GI is as ro
mantic as washing out a three
week old pair of socks.. 'With
chest" out and the vision of a
bearded symbol of patriotism
pointing his nasty finger at me
and saying "I Want You!" I
climbed the two flights to my
. local draft board and prepared
to sign over my life.
I had left the Hill for the ex
press purpose of being a good
citizen, but little did I realize
what a traitor I actually was.
Proudly I opened the door
knocking over an old lady and
a hat rack. As my eyes aren't
too good, I unfortunately placed
my hat on the woman's out
stretched palm and proceeded
to apologize to the dormant
clothes tree. This taken care of,
I introduced myself to the secre
tary and began to exchange
pleasant conversation with her,
when in the midst of a tete-a-tete
on elephant breeding, she
came across my record in the
files.
All had gone well, but now
papers were being thrown in
front of my face, accusations
were hurled at family back
ground, and I believe there was
some mention made about the
size and shapj of my head. 1
It seems that I was a little
shorCof four months late with
my appointment with Uncle
Sam. All the things I ever said
and even some of the things 1
ever thought about Benedict
Arnold were being directed to
ward my personality. One sec
retary was not enough, but I
had to be rushed through a line
of frustrated Colonels like from
here to Hong Kong.
Each one of them denounced
my uncouth attitude and waved
a hasty finger in front of my
blushing . countenance' warning
me of what might have hap
pened. It is very possible that
my next roommate will be in
Sing Sing. I could have been
fined $10,000 or vacationed ten
years - on the. sunny shores ot
Alkatraz.
Silenced by this revelation, I
think I remember saying I was
. sorry and I wouldn't do it again.
This they agreed to and told
me that from now on I was as
' close to them as the General's
undies are to him the General,
of course. . v
I apologized again in the hope
that all would be forgotten, but
never was I so' mistaken. As I
was leaving (by way of the
Colonel's Jarmans) I was handed
a stack of papers" knee-high s to
a Texan with the instructions to
fill them out immediately ! and
-send them back.' :;. J M

Light up a cigarette. Now stop
and think about it. How many
times a day do you smoke one?
Do you realize the .terrific
amount of advertising which
goes into the sale of one 20c pack
of cigarettes? A friend of mine
didn't either, that is not until
he decided to start smoking, and
and walked into a drugstore to
buy a pack of cigarettes. And.it
went like this:
He walks up to the counter
and says to the clerk, in what he
considers a very collegiate,
sophisticated college voice.
"Gimme a pack of cigarettes."
The clerk makes a snappy
comeback , with, 'What kind?"
(And this friend (call him
Jqe) says, '""What kind you got?"
"We got Luckys, Chesterfield,
Philip Morris, Old Gold, Camel,

Letters To
Madam Editor:
To The Student Body:
One thing should be straight
ened out today: The Student
Party did not appeal the Elec
tion Board's decision on the val
idity of the University Party's
nominations. The matter was
taken to the Student Council
by an .individual acting on his
own initiative and receiving the
support of one of the members
of the Elections Board. They
were two of many who sorrow
fully noted the Elections Board's
disregarding of a very "plainly -written
law in a re vote after it
had voted in recognition and
accord with the law. However,
the Student Party did not in
tend for the matter to' be con
tested so close to an election.
Those bringing the appeal, al
- though admittedly members of
the Student Party, were acting
on their own, and the Party
and its Chairman knew nothing
of the action until after its
initiation. The individual broad
casting from Steele Dorm yester
day not only was acting in a
manner unbecoming one who
was to sit in judgement on the
matter that afternoon, but one
who also had his facts, mixed
up. ' "'

Madam Editor'. ;
I want to take this opportu
nity to ! thank ' all the ' many
people ' that have' helped 4 the
University Club' -this 'year' with
, the presentation , of the ep
ralfles. Some I wish to thank
in particular are Chancellor
l House, Gordon Gray, President
. of the University, Athletic Di-I
rector "Coach Bob" Fetzer, Head
Cheerleaders Cyril Minett and
Durwood "Nose" Jones, all of
the cheerleaders, the University
band and their director, Mr.
Earl ;Sldcum' Mrs. Kay Kyser,
; Mr. Gege Farringtbn; and last,
but certainly far from least, Mr.
mont, Domiiio, Holiday, Bum
and Maple, Chocolatey VaniHa
and Strawberry, not tO mention
the popular brands. We got th
nose test, the throat test, th
lung test, and 300,C00 doctors
whose word you can trust -
"Is your T-Zone irritated?
Have you got cigarette hang
over? We got cigarettes made I
the finest imported tobaccos
money can" buy, specially aged
and blended in huge warehouses
where happy tobacco experts
like E. Z. Speed Riggs con
stantly inspect the curing pro
cesses. "We got the cigarette that giv
es you a treat and not a treat
ment, we got the cigarette that
filters the smoke, we got the cig
arette that is best for folks with
pneumonia, we even got Turk
ish cigarettes.
. "We got cigarettes which are
smoked by Crosby, Godfrey, and
t Como. Also Joe Dimaggio, Wil
ly Hoppe and Tallulah Bank
head. Now here is what leading
figures of the stage, screen,
sports, and education worlds
have to say about their brands."
My pal Joe is snowed under.
With his year's tuition money
clutched in his sweating hand,
he has one last statement.
"Gimme a case of each brand,
quick. I gotta class to go to."
The Editor
Kay Kyser. It was Mr. Kyser
that at any time we had any
worries and problems about the
rallies, came to the rescue and
gave us many ideas, solutions,
generous help and work to make
possible the successful rallies
that we had. The University -Club
at this time takes its hat
off to a grand man who still is
imbued with the "Carolina
Spirit." Also to all others who
gave so generous of their time
and effort do I thank in behalf
of the Club for their help.
To the Carolina student body,
I wish to thank and congratu
late for their efforts at keeping
up the "Carolina Spirit. At
times this year I thought that
it was lost, but it has come back
tenfold. I, myself, was over
whelmed by the spirit shown by
the student body at the Notre
Dame game. It can be summed
up in one word ; GREAT! The
season this y e ar is just aboufr
over, so all we can do is wait
for next season, but let's keep
the spirit high, get behind our
coach, and team and really show
: them that we are behind them
100 percent.
Thanks again in behalf of the
University Club to all those
people that helped us this fall
