He had been impressed at first with Fascism's outward appearance, but as his ideas changed, his book had to be revamped.

The "movie palace" was the one thing on the "Hill' you could not forget. "The 1:30 lab" consisted of stu dents who were so well armed with peanuts, popcorn, acorns and other similar articles either for self defense or for vengeance that townspeople re fused to attend either of the after noon shows or the early evening show beginning at 7 o'clock and made them selves content with the late 9 o'clock one. In those times everyone made a scramble for the much favored back row in order to evade the flying am munition of the "lab" students. Theatre Established In 1927 E. Carrington Smith came to town and established the Carolina located in the building now occupied by the Navy Pre-Flight theatre. Bene fiting from experience gained in the Pickwick, SmitfiV engaged several ex football players as bouncers. For the first several days part of the audience was thrown out. Since then little trouble has appeared and "we have the most appreciative audience in the country and they like good movies," See UNFORGETTABLE, page A ' 'Si i , ' 1- , mm r '-' iii hi is. is If I cf r ; ill s A f.. f I Pictured above and to the right are the most recent photographs to be taken of E. Carrington Smith's latest addition to Chapel Hill's entertain ment. If pictures had been taken of the old "Pickwick" they would have presented, a marked contrast to the modemly designed auditorium and foyer of the New Carolina Theatre. The bouncers may not be present in the make-up of the new establish ment but popcorn and candy are still in evidence. f : - - i ?T3 NROTC Issues Annual Edition Of Catapult Mag The annual edition of the NROTC Catapult was issued this week by, and for, the Cadets of the Naval ROTC here. This issue is dedicated to Cap tain R. H. Haggart, the first com mandant of Carolina's ROTC, who is now on active duty. F . G. Await, Jr., is the editor of the Catapult, assisted by a larfre staff of ROTC men. The ohotooranhv for- tht issue is credited to Karl Bishopric. editor of the Yackety Yack. and Joe Denker, of the Pre-Flight School. Complete Account The Catapult" is bound in blue leather with gold lettering and con tains a comnlete account vf v,a. student present Elections In the light of approaching elections? and a new switchover in the offices of the present student government setup, advocates of this move already are voicing strong incentive for such a procedure. In effect, the action called for would suspend for the duration all student government on this campus. This will be the second in the Di Senate's current series of open com pus forums. In these discussions any student may register his opinion on pertinent campus problems; it was emphasized that any student, coming from any campus group is given the liberty of the floor in this open analy sis. Pro and Con Several proponents of this imnorw tant step have alreadv emnhasizpd that they will be on hand Wednesday night to bolster their opinions concern ing this procedure. Likewise, repre sentatives from the other side of th issue have served notice that they also intend to be present. Current Issue Tackling the current issue of freez ing student government is probably the greatest problem which faces the University Student Body today. It is a problem which definitely has two different sides and one which, during the course of impromptu "bull-ses sions," has proven more than once to be worthy of considerable debate. Student Council Reports Facts: Two boys were reported by their instructor for having used mechanical drawing sheets, that were done last semester, as their own and turning them in as their own work. The boys had lost their own notebooks and secured some work done for, the course last semester. They went over the sheets that had been turned in and partially reworked them, correcting mistakes that they observed and adding to the work already done. When they had re-done the exercises to their satisfaction, they signed their names to them tivities of th nnm v, ; y saia iney aia tms so tnev would not have to buy Decision and Opinion: The Student Council felt that this was a violation of the Honor System even though the boys apparently did not look on it as such. It was not done with the knowledge that it was a violation, since both felt that they had done considerable work in completing the drawings. The council felt that it was their responsibility to familiarize themselves with the require ments that the instructor placed on the work. It was recommended to V-12 Headquarters that they be brought before the Commanding Officer Results: Both boys were put on probation and given a heavy demerit penalty Ihis means that they will be separated from the V-12 program if they are guilty of any future violations of discipline or conduct imposed by the a7or y thG CounciL U also means tha their service records can never Aif were squired to make up the work in accordance with the Honor System.
