50 years," was William Starr
Myers, who as a senior here wrote
"Hark the Sound," the Univer
sity's alma mater.
Myers wrote the school song
to fit the German tune "Amici"
for Glee Club Director Karl P.
Harrington, That was back in
1897. The same year he lso wrote
two other songs, "Only a Bow of.
Ribbon" and "Winning Run."
Both were presented at mid-winter
concert.
While at Carolina back when
The Daily Tar Heel was a weekly
and the Yackety Yack was the
"Hellian," Myers was athletic
editor of the newspaper and busi
ness manager of the yearbook.
He graduated in 1897.
Myers did graduate work in
history and political science at
Johns Hopkins University. Then
he studied under Woodrow Wil
son at Princeton and later took
over Wilson's classes there. After
46 years he retired.
Many of his old classmates
were at. the Library dedication
here last weekend which he at
tended, but he found himself the
oldest member present at the
Beta Theta Pi centennial celebra

the second annual Intramural de

a field of ' six other teams. Carl
Lowthrop, a freshman from' Dur

award. .
The team and speaker awards

Celebration
Here May 24
Plans for the celebration of the
10th anniversary of the Navy Pre
Flight school here, which trained
some 20,000 men during World
War II. were released yesterday
by Oliver K. Cornwell, general
chairman.
The anniversary wilL be spon
sored by the University and the
Chapel Hill Merchants associa
tion. The affair is scheduled the
weekend of May 24. ;
Invitations have ' been sent to
men and officers who attended the
school as well as a number of
special guests. 1
Commodore O. O. Kessing who
n o w 1 i ve s here and who
commanded the school at its
opening in May, 1942, yesterday
said efforts are being made to
have Arthur Godfrey attend the
anniversary. Godfrey broadcast
the commissioning exercises, in
1942.' ' :-:
women are continually con
tent with subordinate posi-
tions. Look at the school sys-; '.
tern, for example. The teach
ers are mostly women but the
principals - and executives, the'
board members are almost al
ways men."
"What about the women
who crusaded for rights? ;
Where did the conviction in
militative feminism die out?" ;
This lack of a "sense of dedi
cation is quite puzzling to Dr.
J ones and he discussed it in
his article in Mademoiselle
Magazine recently.
. When, asked -if his impres
sion of college women was

but that the article was based x j

jDr; Jones believes the atti

different as most of them have
specific jobs in mind and have
aligned their college careers
accordingly.
"As to interest in causes and

students in general seem
frightened.. Political interest
