o Return
WCUNC Visit
On March 25
On April 29, the WCUNC Freshman
Friendship Council will return the visit
paid them by the Carolina freshmen
on March 25.
All Freshmen boys, civilian and mili
tary, can sign up for dates in the "Y"
'office, or with Merril Kelly and Mance
Bogey. Deadline for registration will
be Friday, April 14.
A program to entertain the girls has
been organized. First, there will be a
forum discussion between the boys and
girls on the topic of "Race Problems."
Later the boys will take their dates
to supper, "anywhere in town." -The
climax will be an informal dance that
night. Boys who register for the pro
gram will have from three to Jour
dates on the day of the visit.
These visits are made annually be
tween the two schools and are spon
sored by the Freshman Friendship
Councils. "To acquaint the girls with
the Carolina campus, to promote bet
ter relations between the two schools,
and to provide entertainment for all,"
are some of the reasons given for the
visit.
Anyone desiring additional informa

ask of students coming to this cam
pus?" he asked. "Does it expect them
to live up to the level of the campus
code of conduct, to report violations
by their fellow students, to testify for
or against themselves or fellow stu
dents when called upon by the student
council or related agencies, to keep on
the lookout for violations, and to be
lieve that what one student does is
another student's business?"
Campus Code '
"The campus code of conduct today
includes many elements," he stated,
"It includes the standards of conduct
set by laws of the United States, laws
of the North Carolina General Assem
bly, and standards of conduct set by
the trustees of the University under
authority granted by the GeneraFAs
sembly in 1789, and by the faculty
and student governing organizations
under powers delegated by the trus
tees.
"From the ' very beginning," Mr. J
Coates said, "University students
drew a distinction between rules and
regulations made by the trustees and
faculty and those made or accepted by
themselves. But it took years of
struggle to bring students to accept
responsibility even for the enforce
ment of their own rules. . . . Students
made their own rules, cavalierly
shifted responsibility to the shoulders
of a supervisor elected by themselves,
and immediately proceeded to break
their own laws in order to give their
self-appointed supervisors something
worthwhile, to do."
"When these students . . . super
visors wearied of well-doing and
failed to report their fellow students
as a matter of law, their fellow mem
bers asked them to report as a matter
of honor, their fellow members
threaten to impeach them.
" 'If you will not release us from
our duties to report to you,' said the
monitors in reply, 'You should at
least give us committees to share this
responsibility. With the backstopping
of supporting committees, the super
visors . . . returned to their duties
with , renewed determination'." ,
"This device of sharing the super
visors reporting responsibilities with
a supporting committee went a long
way toward solving the problem of
law and order," Mr. Coates continued,
"but it did not go far enough; the
supervisor's committees thereupon be
gin to call for the further sharing of
responsibilities through" the appoint
ment of a series of committees to look
out for and handle reporting respon
sibilities of various types of offenses
He stated, "This growing sense of
individual responsibility shines out
from the records with increasing fre
quency through the years:, time after
time the students voted down revolu
tions to repudiate the obligations they
had voluntarily assumed."
Mr. Coates concluded with the state
ment that scum is never found except
on stagnant water, and that honor is
never found in stagnant bodies.

UNC Folklorist
GetsHonors
From Society
A signal honor has just come to
North Carolina's distinguished folk
lorist Dr. R. S. Boggs of the Depart
ment of Romance Languages.
The annual volume of publications
which has Just been released by the
Folklore Soeiety of Mexico in Mexico
City has been dedicated to Dr. Boggs,
"on whose initiative the Folklore So
ciety of Mexico was founded."
A full page picture of Dr. Boggs ap
pears on the front of the volume, and
the lead article is an essay by him in
Spanish on the definition of folklore ;
and its place among the sciences.
During the summer of 1938 he went
to Mexico and was so impressed with
the folklore materials he found th,at
he urged fellow folklorists there to
found a society for its benefits of co
operative enterprise.
The Mexican Society of Anthro
pology invited him to give a lecture in
Spanish on Mexican folklore at its
meeting that summer. His- address
aroused much interest and the follow
ing month a meeting was called by the
Society of Anthropology for the pur
pose of organizing a folklore society,
with Prof. Vincente T. Mendoza, an
internationally known ballad scholar,
as president.
Dr. Boggs was made an honorary
member of the Society which now holds
monthly meetings at which studies and
collections of Mexican folklore are
presented, discussed and later pub
lished in the annals.
He feels that the Society is one more
step in Inter-American cooperation and
mutual understanding.
Huggins Purchases
Hardware Concern
Vic Huggins of Chapel Hill, who has
traveled throughout the state for nine
years as representative of the Haas
Tailoring company, has resigned that
position to take over the business of
the University Hardware Company.
Mr. Huggins has bought the com
pany from L. E. Jones. Robert Ray,
salesman and general assistant, will
remain in that capacity.
Mr. Huggins is a University grad
uate of the class of 1925 and was prom
inent in undergraduate activities. He
was regarded as one of the best cheer
leaders the University has had.
LT. BERNARD

nevale's ship made for South America
under a full bouth Atlantic moon.
There had already been several sub
scares, and messages had come in that
other ships had been hit, so the actual
torpedoeing was not unexpected. Two
German torpedoes struck the ship, one
forward of the engine room, and one
aft. Within five minutes the ship had
buckled, and broken in two. It is Lt.
Carnevale's opinion that the second
torpedo was fired to hasten the ship's
sinking So the gigantic fire would not
attrack the attention of any passing
vessels.
Doughnut Rafts
Two doughnut rafts were tied to
gether and floated, but some men were
lost during the attack. 'After the ship
had disappeared into the 44,000 fath
oms of sea water, the German subs sur
faced, and their crew officers inquired
if the American survivors knew their
location, and if they had provisions.
Lt. Carnevale says the men on the
raft did not answer, since it is the
Navy's belief that it is better not to
risk antagonizing the enemy by a
chance remark.
Choppy Sea
The water was so choppy while the
men were adrift that even men who had
been sailing for 35 years were seasick.
A lifeboat from the ship picked up the
men from the rafts, piling 26 men in
the boat, originally intended for a ca
pacity of 18.
Equipped with a pilot chart, com
pass, and provisions, the crew sailed
for seven and a half days, during which
time they saw nothing but water, sky,
and each other. They knew they were
approximately 500 miles off land, but
had no instrument that could tell them
if their destination would be reached.
Time was passed standing watch, steer
ing, being sick, and munching graham
crackers and pimpkin, a dehydrated
food concoction of cocoa, raisins, choco
late, dates, and other ingredients.
Extreme Temperatures
The temperature during the day hov
ered at about 115 degrees, but the freez
ing point was reached during the
nights. Most popular dreams during
the voyage were of a large, juicy steak.
After a week of drifting and dream
ing the men on the lifeboat hit the
exact spot they had aimed for Natal,
a Brazilian naval base. At their haven
Lt. Carnevale slept for two days, and
filled up on good old-fashioned bacon
Student Council Report
FACTS OF THE CASE: Several civilian boys were reported to the Stu
dent Council for flagrant poker playing. From the testimonies of all the
boys it was discovered that two of the boys had cheated at poker recently.
However both boys had made some effort at reconciliation. The Student
Council ruled that a case of cheating in poker or in the classroom should be
dealt with in a like manner. Since the boys readily admitted their guilt and
previously had attempted a reconciliation the Council was lenient in its
decision. "
ACTION: Motion made and passed that the two boys who admitted
cheating be put on University conduct probation and that the remainder of
the boys be severely reprimanded.
Seniors to Elect
Officers in June
The senior class executive committee'
decided not to replace the class officers
who had left for the armed forces at
a banquet given that group Monday
night by J. M. Saunders, secretary of
the Alumni Association.
Peggy Parker was elected to sign all
checks necessary for the senior class.
Permanent class officers will be chosen
Friday night, June 2, at the Senior
Class Banquet.
Student Art Show
To Open Tomorrow
Easter Sunday will bring to the
Person Hall Art Gallerv an unusual
collection of paintings.
Augmenting the exhibition of works
by Latin American painters, which has
been held over until April 17th, the 7th
annual North Carolina student art ex
hibit will make its debut this Sunday
morning, April 9th. The carefully
chosen artists represent students rang
ing from the 7th term elementary
school to college. Because of the lack
of space caused by the dual exhibit the
entire collection of the students works
will not be displayed until the depar
ture of the current show.
By way of an additional Easter
treat, Miss Harriet Adams will deliver
a lecture at 3 o'clock dealing with the
always-popular artists of Latin
America.
Joke
This one has been doing the rounds
of the publication offices for the past
several days, and in order not to
suffer our agonies alone, we pass it
on to you :
Once upon a time (so the story
goes) the lady of the house went
into her kitchen and opened the door
of her Westinghouse refrigerator.
To her immense surprise inside sat
a little white bunny rabbit.
"What are you doing in there?"
she demanded, somewhat taken
aback.
The rabbit looked-up. "Isn't this
a Westinghouse?" he inquired.
"Yes."
"Well," sighed the little white rab
bit, "I'm just westing." (Sorry. Sorry.
Sorry.)
and eggs. He still remembers with
something akin to nostalgia that the
first pineapples he ate after landing
were cubed and set in ice, and that
tropical fruits were in abundance.
Sad Note
Perhaps the saddest note of the land
ing party was the death the day after
hitting land of a crew member who had
been burned as he stood above a hatch
on the ship. It had been consumed in
a 300 foot flame, and the man had re
ceived an eighty per cent burn, which
had turned gangrenous during the
week he was aboard the raft.
Lt. Carnevale, in December, returned
to New York where he had to spend
some time in the hospital, resting, be
cause of a brain concussion and small
clot, but he was permitted to go home
for Christmas.
Naval Intelligence
Reassigned, he worked with the in
telligence branch of the Navy, travel
ing through Ecuador, Colombia, Vene
zuela, Peru,', and Chile. Ordered to
Washington in J anuary, the officer was
next sent to Chapel Hill.
The lieutenant is a member of Phi
Gamma Delta was in "Who's Who in
American Colleges" in 1938, and was
elected to his senior sphinx society,
composed of the 15 outstanding seniors.
He says, "No matter where you go,
or what you do, there's no place like
the States."

is another contender in the two-mile
having placed in the indoor mile Here,
and has shown up good in practice.
Jumps
The high jump and the broad jump
I are pretty well taken care of. Charles
Bock, high jumper, who placed in the
Indoor meet is again on hand, and
with a little more polishing, may soar
to six feet. Also out for these events
this year is George Grimes, football
star from Virginia and last year, a
Tar Heel. Another high jumper of
widespread acclaim is John W. Slinn,
from Spring Valley, N. Y., who has
done five ten, and will be able to do
better as the season progresses. Five
ten is the mark of Edward B. Guy,
ex-William and Mary trackster, who
will be on hand to bolster Tar Heel
hopes in the high jump.
Donald D'Antoni, New Orleans, La.,
and product of Jesuit High, appears
to be the top man' with the javelin.
D'Antoni has thrown this object a
distance of 165 feet. Right along with
D'Antoni is Richard B. Wrillingham
who has heaved the javelin 150 feet.
U. G. Cornogg, West Chester, Pa.,
appears to have the shot put field in
hand. Cornogg, also a great football
star, has put the shot 39 feet. R. F.
Horton is another star in this event.
Vaulting
The pole vault and the discus ap
pear to be the doubtful part of the
outdoor track lineup, with only one
holdover in the pole vault. He is Jesse
Erwin, and with some hard work may
develop into a point-maker for the
Tar Heels. Erwin has vaulted 10 feet
6 for Carolina and Coach Ranson ex
pects him to better this mark when
the track season swings into full
blast.
The preceding is by no" means the
complete roster of the track team, but
the ones who have shown to be the
top performers in their field, and
there are probably many dark horses
on the squad whom Coach Ranson
has not uncovered.
