For Civilian And Military Students Started Yesterday With the termination of Navy leaves and civilian holidays following the six weeks "short term" to synchronize fall University classes at Chapel Hill, V- 12-ers and civilian students began the coordinated trimester system here yesterday which will continue for the duration. Registration for new students, Navy transfer students, and those civilian students who did not register before the holidays were held Friday and Saturday, with indications that the civilian enrollment would' top that of the short fall term. Students may enroll for credit through Saturday, November 11. According to administrative officials today, approximately 60 to 70 new ci vilian students registered, and 200 new V-12 students were enrolled. A number of new war veterans who have been dis charged from active duty were also registered in addition to 67 enrolled in the short term. Before the holidays 1915 civilian students enrolled in the short term re gistered for the new trimester. This new system provides a four- months' semester with short vacation periods and is equal to the regular nine months' term which has long vaca tion periods. Students can, therefore, complete one full year of academic work in the eight months' period. The Uni versity will operate on a 12-months' University Seeks New Building For Pharmacy School The University of North Carolina will seek a new building for the School of Pharmacy, it was announced by President Frank P. Graham and Dean of Administration R. B. House today in paying tribute to the late Dr. E. V. Zoeller of Tarboro who was instru mental in founding the school in 1896. Plans for honoring Dr. Zoeller's con tribution to pharmacy and for announc ing the University's purpose to house pharmacy more adequately were inter rupted by Dr. Zoeller s illness and sub sequent death. The school has now outgrown the third of three buildings it has occupied during its lifetime of 43 years on the campus. Its first home was the ground floor of New West building (1897-1912); it was next given the whole of Person Hall in which it stayed until 1925. When Ven able Hall was erected in 1925 for the department of chemistry, pharmacy was moved into the old chemistry build ing. Dean Beard said plans are to place the new pharmacy building in the area set aside for the health and biological sciences such as medicine, public health, zoology and botany, in order that its students may more conveni ently pursue instruction in these fields. This applies especially to graduate stu See UNIVERSITY, page U HUNT basis with the third term beginning Julyl. With the return of practically all fraternity houses to the local chapters, the housing situation with respect to ci vilian men will be considerably improv ed.

The change from two systems, one for civilian and one for military stu dents, was effected in order to offer a richer field of courses to both stu dents because of the shortage of in structors and to increase the graduate department facilities as well as for -1 -WT 1 1 economy, uean Jiouse explained. He also added that it was his hope that under the new system Carolina would experience one of its most suc cessful years and he predicted that the trimester system which puts military men side by side with, civilians would function harmoniously.
