Carolina Saturday Game Is Major Test For Tar Heels By Lloyd Koppel Carolina tackles its second intersec tional contest of the first V-12 gridfron season this Saturday when once again a Tar Heel representation moves to Franklin Field, Philadelphia, to meet the Quakers from the University of Pennsylvania. Playing their Northern opponent for the first time since 1939, the Tar Heels will be hard-pressed by the Penn out fit, defeated only once and out to avenge the 30-6 defeat suffered by George Munger's squad at the last meeting between the two schools. Those were in the days of "Sweet" Lalanne, George Stirnweiss, and a guy named Severin, however, and the dopsters on this year's contest place the boys from Philadelphia as heavy favorites.

Some of the campus notables are go ing to see themselves coming and go ing when a. rejuvenated Sound and Fury presents "Gadabout," a musical comedy parody on Carolina life, No vember 25, 26, and 27 in Memorial Hall. Familiar personalities flit through the intrigue of a football week-end, complete with big name band, their collegiate-minded torch singer and the confusing, contradictory orders issued by the V-12 division of the Navy De partment. S&F History Sound and Fury was originated in the spring of 1940 by Carroll Mc Gaughey and Sanf ord Stein. Its first production was "One More Spring" fol lowed by "Standing Room Only" and "Baghdad Daddy" given in 1941. All three of these were original shows, written and produced by students. The last official president, Ben Hall, left the organization in the hands of Libby Izen and Joan Kosberg The group was inactive last year and plans to revive it were made when Mary Louise Huse and Jack Ellis wrote the script and songs for "Gadabout." Outstanding among the tunes will be the title song "Gadabout," "I Knew You When" and "Big Love Song Blues" sung by Miss Kosberg. The directors would like to take the show on the road if the various details can be ar ranged with the administration heads. Cast The cast is headed by Betty Don Sweat, soprano transfer from Ward Belmont Junior College, who plays the part of Judy, a - stagestruck coed. This is her first experience in musical comedy. The male lead, Tom Richards, the traditional football hero, is carried by Harold Gould. One of the semi-professionals in the cast, Gould drove a neighbor's car to California just for the ride, then thumbed his way into Takes On Eight-Count Them-EightBeautjQueens Will Reign Supreme on Duke Weekend Yearbook Heads Concoct Scheme By Sam Whitehall "And in the year 1943-44, not one, but eight coed beauties reigned su preme over the campus at the Univer sity of North Carolina." Belieing the old adage that it is im possible to please everybody, the 1944 Yackety-Yack, on the night of Novem ber 20, will sponsor the newest and most novel beauty contest ever to hit the. campus, with the object of naming the eight most beautiful women at Carolina. The ancient Order oi the Grail has planned the biggest single dance of the fall for that Saturday night, in Woollen gymnasium, follow-1 mg the Carolina-Duke entanglement.

After looking them over long and hard, these sages will retire and after lengthy delibera tion, emerge with the names of the winners. This selected array of femi nine charm and grace is destined for unfading fame within the pages of the beauty section of the annual. Beauties in the making will be spon sored by the four sororities on cam pus, the fraternities, the Carolina In- dependent Coed Association, and the Graduate Women's' Association.

" The contesting: beauties will be pre sented in a figure at nine o'clock, and the decisions made by the judges will be announced during intermission. - The revolutionizing of the method of picking the girls-to be featured in the beauty section of the Yackety Yack, came about this year after stu dents ; had. made many and long com plaints to the effect that former judges had either been prejudiced, or the se lections had been made absolutely on the basis of photographs, without even allowing the judges to see the people they were judging. In this way, the selections will be made on a, combina tion basis, with1 judges considering both the merits of the coeds in person. and their photogenic potentialities. The names of the judges will not be made public until after the selections have been made, and Editor Karl Bishopric promised that "we have the most unbiased men on our faculty for the job." . Last year selections for the beauty section of the annual were made by student judges, and in the years be fore pictures of a large number of coeds were sent off to some well-known iiersonality, who selected the assigned ever having seen the number without girls in person. -Further details concerning' the Beauty Ball will be made in next week's issue of the Tab Heel.

This will be the last time freshmen pictures will be made. Fraternities and organizations on campvs who desire pictures in the Y-Y should have these pictures in the Y-Y office by Sunday, midnight.

Odum, will be initiated Thurs day night at the regular bi-monthly YM-YWCA Supper Forum to be held in the Methodist church tomorrow night at 6:00 p. m.

Aided by promotional plans from Charlotte's director, Harry B. Dia mond, and publicity properties sent from the Queen City, drive heads ex pect to go over their quota in the cur rent nationwide campaign to raise funds to support the federation of al lied charities. The Special Gifts division, charged with covering campus organizations, business concerns and commercial donors, made an appeal to all Carolina extra-curricular units to contact drive officials, and subscribe from club treas uries. Meanwhile, SG canvassers be gan a preliminary attempt to find all possible donors. Foreseeing the difficulties in obtain ing funds immediately from V-12 men, the committee's pledge-card system is being utilized to give all would-be con tributors a chance to aid in the cam paign. Originally planned as a four-day drive, the charity campaign has been extended, officials explained, "to give each member of the student body an opportunity to contribute in some man ner toward the single appeal we'll be called upon to aid this year. The char ity is a combination of many organiza tions which formerly had separate campaigns. Many people from our own prisoners of war to the starving peoples of occupied Europe need our help now." Coed leader Ward named Dot Schmuhl, Barbara Manly, Marge Hen derson, Rosalind Davisson, Beth Chap- pell, Jean Lockridge, and Tolie Moreau to Canvass Women's Hnrmitnrioo otiH sororities.
