" the' proposal of President Berryhiii of tie Sfinidf class- tnat the entire student body choose the man that is. to nead the Cdtincil, we" hope will Be accepted. Td otir mind it is only another step in the complete realization of our ideal of a self-governing" student body ... , , . . , In the first place; It seems to Us that the argument, from, the stand point of the President of the Senior class, who now heads the CoUttcil, that the" present system throws too much work on this man, is genuine. And if so, it will be well to make some change which. Will Scatter; responsibilities. And incidentally, if the proposed plan is adopted, the Student body should refuse to allow its president to serve jit any othet position, this brie posi tion is big enough to challenge the capabilities of the best 6f our Students., But the deeper and niore vital feaSoft for favoring this change Is be cause the man who heads the Council should be" the selection of the entire student body, rather1 than of any particular group. If we are going to have student government in a manner that opens up the way for the highest and finest achievements in self-government, it seems to Us that it is imperative that this change be made. It is the only logical way In which to handle this Question. , The Student Council is the least important .thing that we have in our system, In fact, ita very existance is a yiolation of the honof system. The success of our system depends upon constructive leadership, and not upon negative action. You can't lead this campus by the Student Council, f or then . you would be leading the campus by its tail. But the beauty Of our present . system is that in this negative force-r-the Student Council, we have the leaders of the several classes Which makeup the Student, body. The same : men see both ends of the situation. If the positive end of leadership fails", then they bring In the Council for action.. This is the last resort. , By having a man to lead student government who has been selected by the entire student body, you have a man. who is free to go to any group on the campus to engage in the work of leadership. He is everyman's own representative. And as we understand it', the problem of councijmen is the problem of leadership. And so give us a man from the student body who should do this. Too many safeguards can not be thrown around the election of such a man. This, however, is a matter of detail and can be handled. The im portant thing is the need for a change in system. . R. L. Gray, Jr. Apropos of the recent disturbances in favor of open politics and earlier oleciions a timely word or two might o; be misplaced. For the student body of Carolina :aj, outgrown its present system of idverament just as effectively and as ly as it outgrew faculty control iver '1 years ago. Communities have fjiiny little way of outgrowing y items. The cries for earlier elec ; oas and Open politics are merely ymptoms of the fact that the system due a change. : They are merely forerunners of radical reforms which must Come sooner or later either as a result of level-headed legislation or ridiiig in as ait after effect of an orgy of lawlessness and contempt for authority; ! It is to prevent our methods of seli-government front beaming ob jects Oi edh tempt arid ridicule that We must make the hdno system both systematic and hdnorable. It has Masted to be either. ftd we fiiusi hot think that it is tne fault 6, the studeat council that tfi3e" (SdriditidttS have, dome about, they have. faded a SerioiLi FiLUatiofi this yeaf and Bart aCqUitted thehi selves nobly.

Aftd the-l draw: the lifi THERE!. Let's tijake the student-eotiHe-ii fc f tentative of the nudents' desires in fact as well as in theory. Let's have the stjident tody interpi the hontt system and not put that iespoftU- biiity oa the shoulders ef a few ntett. Let the , pubiiiatiofi, the literary societies, the athletic council and the Pan-Hellamc coutici appoint . repre sentatives to meet, confer, and draw up a constitution fof thfl students. Let them put the hs-tt interpretatiii they know of On the honor system and then, when the spring elections are held, let their work be put before the student body for their ratifica tion. This will be both systematic and honorable. Every student entering the Uni versity shall then affirm in writing his intention of abiding by the laws embodied in this constitution. If he does not, let the s.udent council acv in accordance With the definite rules roverning the specific cases. This vi.J give the students government of, .'or and by themselves (if Ab9 wll -ardon a little Plagiarism.) I do not want my Use of the word 'honorable" to be misinterpreted. It "- not my purpose to do any mud linging either at the present council or any past councils. It is the so called system that is a disgrace. How any civilized or even semi-barbarous people, such as we, can live under such a flimsy and ramshackle make shift is a monument to the genius of the administrators we have chosen to run our little campus for Us. Now we shall kick over the traces and ruh it oUrselves some. U.T. C. UNIT MERE HOLDS FIRST SUED 1 "Babe. of , Harmony,"- "Pantbmlne Poker Game," and "Mjritery of the Si At T. C.
