State College is to have a hu morous magazine called "The Howler." Well we hope it will be a howling success. 1 the professor meant when he ex plained the meaning of a poem the other morning. He said it is a "pretty little thing about a little girl but it has no sense." PLEDGE DAY Bob House, Executive Secre tary of the University, speaking in chapel this week, said two kinds of fools come here; those who think their career is made when they join a fraternity and those whfl think their career is ended if they don't join one. Sec retary House said something worth thinking about a long while. X)ur congratulations to those who have been pledged, but we offer no sympathy to those who were not. Whether you are a fraternity man or not matters little on this campus. It won't make or break you. You will find as many good men outside as there are inside, and a good many outside by choice rather than necessity. If you wanted to make a fra ternity and didn't get a bid, don't waste one moment worry ing. If you have the feeling you must really join a Greek letter organization before leaving the University, and set your head toward that end, your chance will' come later, provided, of course, you so conduct yourself here as to reflect credit. Cer tainly you can serve the Univer sity and yourself as well wheth er you wear a tiny jeweled pin upon your left breast or whether you do not. Perhaps your great grandchildren will be able to sur vive regardless of whether you "did or didn't." THE MAGAZINE VERDICT Freshman Fritz says his sym pathy goes to the mother who wouldn't let her daughter go out with the college chap because he won a loving cup while in college. Wake Forest is to have indi vidual pictures of . the sopho mores in the annual this year, and Duke is going one more and carry individual pictures of all freshmen in the year bookl And Carolina is going to v-.: ??? According to the catalogue, "The student body of the Uni versity is self-governing." ' Re member we say according to the catalogue. . We wonder if any of the members of .'the Faculty Appellate Committee helped write the catalogue. The handf ull of Co-eds at N. C. State are evidently not loved any more than some others we know of. The Technician ex pressed the following melanchol ia : "Now we just wonder if, when winter comes, we shall be bothered with such things as mosquitoes, flies, fleas, and--Co- eds?" Speaking of State College "lov ing" the Co-eds, i how . about Duke? TKe eminent Chronicle carried this : "We wonder what The faculty committee ap pointed to consider the case of Julian S. Starr, Jr., and R. K. Fowler, editor and assistant ed itor, respectively, of the Carolina Magazine, has filed its report. The committee finds that .. the Student Council was acting with in its rights in assuming juris diction over the case and holds that the story, "Slaves," by Fowler, was "improper for pub lication." A' further finding is that Starr and Fowler showed "bad taste and faulty judgment in their capacity as contributor to and editor of the Magazine The judgment of the Student Council requesting the resigna tion' of Starr and Fowler on the ground that the story was "in decent and improper was set aside, however, with the explana tion that the committee "does not consider' the publication of the story an act of personal miscon duct, but rather as an act of bad taste and faulty judgment." The committee's decision con stitutes a compromise verdict, The fact that it required two night sessions to reach a de cision shows there was ho agree ment reached on the early ballots.. Evidently. Starr and ; Fowler were considerably more concil iatory in their attitude when ap pearing before the faculty com mittee than when they were be fore the council. If reports that are current be correct, the two editors were rather arrogant in their attitude when they ap peared before the council. They are said to have admitted that they "probably over-estimated intelligence and tolerance of the student body," but to have re fused point blank to give assur ance that such stories would not appear in the magazine in the future. Such lack of coopera tion naturally was calculated to antagonize -the council, and the council probably did about the only thing.it could have done under the circumstances. ; As we' see the situation now, the faculty committee has said in substance to the editors : In yiew of the fact that this is your first offense, we are going to draw a fine line of ; distinction. We will consider the story "bad taste and faulty judgment" in stead of "personal misconduct." But, beware and let's don't have any more of this rot or the ver dict may be quite different. A. S. Kartus wrote two Open Forum letters to the, Tar Heel in which he made certain state ments that S. A. Garriss and Tom Capel, in another Open Fo rum letter, took issue with. In their letter Garriss and Capel made statements which have not been proved to the satisfaction of some parti es concerned for which an apology is due Kartus MEN WHO ARE IN "WHO'S WHO By Dill Gardner JAMES FINCH ROYSTER James Finch Eoyster, present Dean of the Graduate School, is absent on leave to carry on re search work, which he is now doing in the British Museum at London. Dr. Royster was born at Raleigh, June 26, 1880. He received his higher education at Wake Forest and the University of Berlin, Germany. He has taught English at the University of Colorado, the University of Chicago,- the University of Tex as, and here. In 1921 he became Kenan Professor of English Phi lology here and Dean of the Col lege of Liberal Arts later, and recently, Dean of the Graduate School. Dr. Royster is a member of the Modern Language Associa tion of America, the American Dialectic Society, of which he was treasurer from 1922 until 1926, and Sigma Chi fraternity.

The Stick of Candy It is evident that the Student Council has been told to run and sell its newspapers when certain cases are to be tried.

TWO DANCES THIS WEEK-END ARE ON SOCIAL CALENDAR Second Grail Saturday Night Tau Epsilon Phi Dance Friday Night The Order of the Grail will give another dance Saturday night and the Tau Epsilon Phi Fraternity will hold its annual Fall Formal at the Carolina Inn Friday night, The second Grail dance of the year announced for Saturday night to follow the N. C. State- Carolina football game is expect ed to be perhaps the most suc cessful dance held during the fall quarter. This is the first year ;that these institutions have play ed in Chapel Hill and a goodly portion of the crowds that for merly attended the fair week game in Raleigh will be expected in town for the contest. A large number of girls have already ac cepted bids to come and indica tions are that the dance will be well attended. Kike Kyser and his Orchestra have been engaged again.. ' Invitations have been received for the Tau Epsilon Phi Fall Formal to be held in connection with their house party and this among the numerous other e vents points to a full week-end. Kyser 's orchestra will also play for this dance. Fold thine arms, turn to thy rest Let them rave The publications union dispute is a thing of the past. The rush- ing of freshmen by fraternities vields to temporary rest. Chief Featherstone has spoken quiet ing truths. The Tar Heel has ceased to belch flaming words and berins crooning a cradle song. ; Let us have peace : But let us review the battle field also. The greatest shell hole is in the anatomy, of our revered Student Council. We congratulate the solons upon their escape from villains who would have each of their indi vidual anatomies open to day light. It is our opinion, by the way, that they almost deserve such punishment for so presump tuous a decision. But that's an other story. The Student Coun cil enters this column through another door. The Old Gray Mare To all "who have studied the recent dispute, it must be evi dent that the Council has been given a stick of candy and told to run sell its newspapers. The limitations set upon the student judiciary confine its jurisdiction to affairs .which are condemned by campus opinion. For ajl fu ture misdemeanors inolving doubt, the decision of the Stu dent Council may, and rightly, be set aside by higher authority The solution of the problems so involved as the recent one is no matter to be trusted to puppets of politics. By this statement is intended no special discredit of the present Student Council. It is well known that all offices are filled at this University by cliques, usually fraternities. There should be, however, a def inite understanding that the Council has no authority to dis cipline any student who offends by more complex action than bloating himself with whiskey, cheating where he may be seen, gambling, or some "ungentle- manly offense" equally obvious. The victims of this recent blun der refused to be humiliated ; Dut subsequent offenders may lack the courage of these edi tors. Therefore, let it be known that the Student Council, as the University catalog states, is grounded upon the students and exists for the expression of their views. Further, certain impor tant matters must be treated by higher authorities. , The student government here is not by stu dent officers, but by them only until they are challenged. Then the case goes to older, judges, University men. God forbid that any such matter as the re cent- affair should be entrusted to students ! lo w Horn the Sceptre! A Who rules the campus? Xa we have shown above, a higher and better authority thfen the Student Council The Jitter, by avowal , of its memWers reprer sents student opinion. But these councillors electa three judges to the recent ajart. Were these three men to fapport the Coun cil's opinoin? if so, the Coun cil had no rLht to choose them, for it has never known that the campus en,orse(i its demand for the resignation or suspension of the Mag4zine editors. And the Council fexists, you know, only for the Wxnression of this r.am- pus opinion. Nor did . it have the righr t0 choose three impar tial mei to represent the stu dent bjdy, for that studeiit body certaijnjy naa an opinion of some lund.f Until authorized by their consf;ituentS, the elected council ors! had no rio-ht. tn tranqfor n cerity. But whose DECISIUIV stands? And judiciary bodies are elected to decide cases, not to pave streets in Hell with good intentions. There are many stu dents who could not have done as well as the present coucillors did in this case. They have not run for positions on the judici ary body. The death knell of presump tion must have been decided But what a glorious fight it was ! LEE JOHNSON IS NEW ASSISTANT BOXING COACH T ,ps JnVinsnn Charlotte. N. C. has been added to the Univer sity coaching staff in the role of assistant boxing coach. Johnson is a prominent boxer who has been engaged in the fighting game for the past five years. When he started out he was only a bantamweight, but nature has worked its charms so thoroughly on this lad that he is now grown into the welterweight class. He has fought a number of good lightweights in his time and enjoys victories over Dave Eddleman, present North and South Carolina lightweight champ." Last year Johnson was under the tutelage of "fighting" Bob Martin, former heavyweight champion of the United States Army and Navy, who is devel oping a promising stable of fighters at Fort Bragg, N. C. Johnson is at present in train ing for a fight that has already been arranged as the clash to de termine the North and South Carolina welterweight champion ship. Francis Bradshaw, Dean of Students, has left Chapel Hill for a ten day's trip. He will visit Cornell and Columbia Uni versity, and will attend several important conferences.
