Paul Stassevitch, dis tinguished New York pianist, was solo ist. " . The good-sized audience heard the orchestra play Bach-Reger's "O Man, Bewail Thy Grievous Sin" after they had sung "The Star-Spangled Banner" with the accompaniment of the orches tra. The orchestra then played "Allegro," "Larghetto," "Gavotta," and "Finale: Molto Vivace," all from Prokofieff 's Classical Symphony, Opus 25."

The only business of- the meet ing will be the election of six hold over members from the present leg islative body and the approval of thiee new members of the Student Council. Carolina Institution Changes Hands As Harry Leaves Town The changing scene had a new touch last week when Harry's Grill exchanged hands and the little round faced proprietor, Harry Macklin and family decided to sell out. With Har ry's going from the Carolina scene, the final link to pre-war memories left with him. Once an employee of the original Harry, Mr. Macklin and wife, Sybil Macklin bought the Grill some four years back and continued an institu tion that catered to student eating needs and served innumerable quanti ties of beer day in and day out. Week ends at Harry's made the place a meet ing ground for a majority of students. There was never a major ' athletic event that didn't see huge sandwich orders delivered to the press boxes. Brisk Pair The Macklins were a brisk pair. Once when Mrs. Macklin, who handled the administrative end of the business was Yanks, Rebels Clash On Race InDiTomorrow Tomorrow night the Dialectic Sen ate discusses what promises to be one of the most controversial issues ever brought before that body for public analysis. A resolution calling for equalization of Negro rights will be brought up on the calendar by five Senators, four of whom are Yankees. Upon announcement of the resolution last weanesaay nignt, tnere arose spontaneous outburst from the Sena tors then assembled. Private argu ments, both pro and con, broke forth upon the floor. Intrepid debating ap pears inevitable on this question. Bill Crisp, President of the Di, stated Sunday night that it was un likely that the bill would come up for vote Wednesday night. He explained that, due to the length of the resolu tion and because of the unlimited re buttal which would surely be required, it would probably take two or possibly three sessions for the Di to bring the bill to vote. The bill is divided into four sections. These sections call for the abolition of the lifting of separation laws, the re strictions on inter-marriage, and the establishment of co-racial educational institutions, with equal political, eco nomic and social rights for both races. Five new members will be initiated into the Di in the business session Wednesday night, and all members are urged to be present. Anyone wishing to do so is welcome to come and partici pate in-the diseussion.nMembership is still open for the spring quarter. The Dialectic Senate meets every Wednesday night at 9 o'clock in the Di Hall, 3rd floor New West. Debate Council To Hold Meeting The University Debate Council will hold its regular meeting tonight at 8:45 in the Grail Room of Graham Memorial. There will be an exhibition debate between the four debaters who are contesting Georgia Tech in the re ciprocal debates to be held here and in Atlanta, Georgia, on April 22. The debate will be on the national debate topfb: Resolved that the United States should cooperate in establishing and maintaining an In ternational Police Force upon the defeat of the axis. The Lineups Bill Crisp and Rene Bernard, who will furnish Carolina's opposition to Tech here Saturday, comprise the neg ative team. Kitty Kelly and Betsy Ross Howe, who will invade Georgia Tech the same day, comprise the af firmative team. All members, of the debate squad and Council are urged to be present. After the debate and squad business there will be a short business meeting of the Council. v Visitors are welcome. asked if beer was really the. only draw ing card that made the Grill a rendez vous she replied "Where else can you get meat blintzes? It's perfectly ob vious." For the uninitiated, "meat blintzes" is a Russian delicacy: meat baked in wrapped dough and browned. Those who wondered where Harry has gone have asked as though an in stitution reminiscent of Carolina memories was passing on. Before he left Harry Macklin mentioned that their new home would be Baltimore, Md. There, with his wife and son, Ralph, they intend to settle down to a more quiet existence.. Due to the fever ish rush of business and the lack of freedom to spend more time out of business hours, the couple and their son feel that their choice was a wise one. Of course they intend to continue in business but it would not be a res taurant this time. Harry felt that he See HARRY, page 4 Top Candidates Stated Platforms Last Night The Carolina student body goes to the polls to vote today for the campus: leaders of the coming school year. Polls' will be open from 9 o'clock until 5 o'clock: the YMCA for civilians, Alderman dormitory for coeds, and Swain Hall for Navy students. The annual Tar Heel election party will be held tonight in the main lounge of Graham Memorial. Beginning at 8 o'clock an up-to-the-minute account of election returns will be chalked up on a blackboard and broadcast into the lounge as the votes are counted. Everyone" is in vited to attend to watch the tabu lation of votes. Platforms Clarified Last night at. a meeting in Gerrard Hall the six major candidates made mmmmmmmm White three-minute speeches, clarifying their platforms and stating what they in tend to do if elected. Turk Newsome, acting president of the student body, conducted .the meeting and introduced the candidates to the student audience. "We must preserve the honor sys tem at any cost," said Charlie Frank Benbow, University party candidate for president of the student body. "I am definitely opposed to splitting the Wiggins Student council," Benbow stated, "for 'I consider such action injurious to the honor system. There will probably be cause f gr a lot of changes because of the speed-up program. Any change necessary will be made, but not un necessary ones which could be harm ful." Benbow urged all students to study the qualifications and experi ence of the candidates and vote ac cordingly. Retain Government Harvey White, United party candi date, stated his platform by saying, "I definitely want to retain student Wallace I ' - I ' ' :-6'; 7 I i - - i i ' J? ' I i ' v I 3 I 1 1 Benbow government of the Carolina campus. Every student in the University, no matter what his status, should take an active interest in seeing that student government works. If elected, I will do everything in- my power to see that every student be given that op portunity." Only coed speaker on the program, United Party nominee Libba Wiggins outlined the three planks in her plat form as candidate for speakership of the Student legislature. "I would like Vance to see the following three things ac complished," said Miss Wiggins: "the creation of an- active interest on the part of students in student govern ment; the awakening of every student so that each will feel that he is a vital part of his governing body; the bring ing about of a closer cooperation be tween students and their representa tives in the legislature. , Decline Explained Char.ie Vance, University Party janiiaate for the top post of the legis- 9 ; Carter lature, pointed out in his platform speech that the "only way to preserve student government is to elect com petent and experienced students as leaders." "There jure many people on campus who believe that the student legislature has reached its lowest ebb at the present time.. The main reason for this decline," Vance explained, "is utter disregard of the constitution of that organization." He suggested the establishment of See CAMPUS, page 4 pill piiiiii wmmm " - f- ?f i- f- i ' ' ' - - -, 4 , f -3 ' l . ! LJ:.:Z i
