The fall term is the lAiy UVJLiftl lVUM I I Editor of Tab Heel: ; My attention was attracted by an article that appeared at the head of the open forum of the Tab Heel on Saturday last. It was a vain attempt to justify the Golden Fleece upon the grounds that it is secret and aristocratic. ' I wish to voice nothing against the Fleece, but it cannot be jus tified by such terms as "aristo cratic" and the propagator of this, as a term of justification, should avail himself of the as sistance of a member of his bootee. If the Golden Fleece is, or claims to be, aristocratic, I should say that this was the only objection to it, but it doesn't seem that the gentleman has the the right "of criticism", which in many cases is the expression of private opinion. : What if some one took the opposite view from him in regard to Golden Fleece; it would be criticism and he says that this man must keep quiet while he himself fills whole col umns with his, opinion.

This must be welcome news to the juniors. We are wondering if the senior class cannot adopt a similar plan, as the fourth year men have many other financial obligations to meet during their last year here. How about it, class officers? The professor tells this one. He was teaching a course in In vestments, r The first day he an nounced that the text book would cost six dollars. Former cheerleader Frbneberger jumped to his feet and as he walked out of the room was heard to say, "that's a helluva investment." Now we are wondering wht will be next since the Golden Fleece controversy has come to an abrupt end. The Freshman Debating Club is doing a commendable thing in trying to revive the waning art of oratory. Speaking of debating which new order. If there is anything aristocratic about Golden Fleece, it can best be justified by keep ing it a secret. The article (signed A STU DENT) reminds us that we have no license to argue very evi dent by his lengthy article.' It hasn't been forgotten that argu ment is the spice of life, or that his implied license is limitless. The gentleman also questions Editor of Tar Heel: I am extremely glad that the calendar prepared for next year is tentative, and there is hope that it will not become perma nent. To my notion, with cer tain possible exceptions, it is as poor an arrangement as could have possibly been suggested. In the first place, I am at a loss to understand why it has been so arranged as make school open so late in September. When September comes around, I be- ieve that most boys are becom ing a little tired of the vacation and are ready to head back for the Hill. I, personally! would rather start back to school ear- ier in the month, than to fool around until the 23rd, as the committee has proposed. Then, too, what is the big idea of the Christmas holidays being deferred until December 22, only tnree days before Christmas? This arrangement will throw a ot of boys out of chances to get jobs preceeding the holidays. This loss of money will be felt by a great number of students. I think that the plan to change he date of Easter holidays is very commendable. I can't, how ever, say so much for the bril- iant plan that has been pro posed if for no other reason than that it makes our Easter vacation three days shorter than it has been in the past. The committee proposes that our vacation be shortened by five days; our Easter vacation by three days ; and they suggest that school not close to June 8th. Why, they don't even give us time to sober-up after holidays, such poor judgment! Come on, give us a sensible plan! MR. I. CRAVE PUBLICITY WHAT'S HAPPENING , TODAY 7:15 p. m.
