that day has passed. One visit to the
educational center of the state right
here in Chapel Hill will thoroughly
convince one of that, were there no fig
ures to back up the proof.
And now the University calls on the
Legislature, as the duly elected repre
sentatives of the people of the state, to
grant more money so that this great
progress can continue, so that we can
further add to and equip the Univer
sity for the proper accommodation of
the gradually enlarging student body.
We need every cent that the state can
afford to give. The Budget Commission
has seen fit to cut down the requests
originally made by the University. As
their report now stands, the amount
called for is not too large, only reason-
tied nd somewhat unsocial should have,
perhaps, little to say about the ques
tion. Yet we are counting on stepping
out around about Easter time, and we
want some good music to step by. Hence
this dabbling in the business of others.
No German club, perhaps, has been
so consistently and constantly stung on
orchestra dance music than this one
right here in our own dear Universitat.
On several occasions, when we wished
to splurge and have some real honest-to-goodness
hops, we have sent to the
metropolis to get famous orchestras,
and on each of these several occasions
we have got just exactly what we didn't
want. Weidemeyer served us on sev
eral consecutive dates, and though his
orchestra performed fairly creditably.

VoL XXXI. Jan. 23, 1923 No. 27
We are told that some of the campus
leaders, the "big men" of certain
groups and organizations, are about to
get in jail on account of tardiness in
paying up the Yackety Yack bills. It
is, of course, to be deplored that this
situation has arisen, and carelessness
and indifference on the part of the or
ganizations concerned seems to be the
chief cause of all the trouble.
It is absolutely absurd that the presi
dent of the Junior class or the presi
dent of the Sheik Sophomore order
should be brought into court because
their organizations have not properly
settled their bills, inasmuch as they are
no more to blame than each individual
in their organizations. Yet we clearly
see the attitude of the Yackety Yack
business-manager, and one can hardly
blame him for trying to collect his bills
in any manner possible, since he needs
the money to settle his own debts. We
are one of the hit dogs, being connected
with two of the organizations that are
embarrassed with Mr. Phipps sudden
legal activity, and there is nothing for
us to do save hang our head in shame
and say, "We are guilty, and we will
pay yon up as soon as we can scrape
the coin together."
It is our opinion that nobody is try
ing to evade paying the Yackety Yack
bills, but it has simply been a matter
of carelessness and indifference on the
part of those who have not paid up.
Some of this indifference has been due,
we suspect, because the Yackety Yack
rather made a mess of things on some
of the pages bought, and the organiza
tions who bought these pages, not at
all satisfied, have seen fit to take their
time in settling up. We know of at
least two instances where the pages
were laughing stocks, and certainly
these organizations do not down in
lHr jftns any too willingly or cheer
fully. But the fact remains that the
bills ought to be paid, and paid when
presented.
Surely this year a better system will
be employed by the annual managers
They should, first of all, see that a
plain agreement is made with all the
activities demanding pages, and then
they should see, by all means, that the
pages they buy are properly and accu
rately made up, just as contracted for.
The money should be either paid in ad

willing to pay for good dances, if good
dances they will be. Everybody seems
to be wanting something very elaborate

various dances to see that the Easter
dances are the best ever.

Greater University.
The Budget Commission, in a report
published a few days ago, grants tha
University $1,650,000, for permanent
imprp-ements, or $667,380 less than
asked for, and for the two year period
grants $1,300,000 for current mainten
ance, which is $130,350 short of the
request made by the University. This
report is to be placed before the Legis
lature, now in session, for final action.

The election for sophomore hop lead
ers was held last week and was done
as usual according to frame-up. it used
to be that a successful frame-up caused
a great deal of talk and scandal on
the campus, but now it is hardly re
marked upon. The uuiisual is when an
election takes place without the frame.
"Doc" Wimberly, D. K. K., was
elected leader over Oglmrn Yates, A.
T. O. The Zeta Psi's candidate, Dick
Thorpe, and Jack Lane. Sigma Nu, in
line with the D. K. E.'s, received large
majorities for assistant leaders. It was
all very cleverly done and everybody
seems well satisfied, as the men elected
have reputations for being unusually
capable men.
According to President "Squatty"
Thomas, the sophomore class treasury
is in very precarious condition. With
assets aggregating about $."0, and about
$300 debits, a stream of creditors are
worrying "Squatty." He claims that
it is time to take a little strenuous ac
tion. Besides all this the sophomore
class is being sued.
"Squatty" suggested a plan that
will cure all troubles and leave a boun

sophmore strong box for parties. "Why
