C, SATURDAY, JANUARY 13, 1945 Editoriil: F-814U Newt: F-314. F.8II7 m J, 25000 Mvster olved For Students "By Announcement By Mary Hill Gaston ,.. Kitty Kelly, chairman of the War Coordination Board sponsoring the "Miss Victory" bond-selling contest to begin January 15, has cleared up the "Foolish Nobody's James" mystery causing considerable head-scratching on campus this week. "Foolish Nobody's James" is the name of the Navy, plane which, it is hoped, will be purchased by war bonds bought at Carolina during the drive. For the past three days showers of mysterious slips of paper with "Fool ish Nobody's James," "25000," and with pictures of planes on them, have been found all over the campus. The figures, Kitty revealed, stand for $25,000, the. cost' of the plane, and the goal in the drive. A bond and stamp-selling booth will open at 8 o'clock Monday morn ing, January 15, in the "Y" and will remain open every weekday until 5 o'clock through February 14, when the drive will officially end. Plans call for the selection of the Carolina pin-up girl, the Miss Victory" of the campus, through votes cast with stamp and bond purchases. Every ten-cent stamp entitles the purchaser to one vote and in the case of war bonds, the maturity value will be the marker for the number of votes. Votes may be cast at the "Y" at the time of purchase or in the case of coeds, with dorm representatives who will sell stamps from room to room. . Photographs of -contestants for the "Miss Victory" title - will be dis played in the "Y." . Every" f raternityi sorority and dormitory on the campus, and - the C.I.C. A. have been invited to partici pate in the contest by sponsoring a candidate for "Miss Victory." A fee of one dollar will be levied on each entry in the race. Deadline for entries is midnight tomorrow .night. ..They should be submitted to Kitty Kelly at second floor Carr or to Dal Davis in Pettigrew before this time. A list of entries will be published in the next issue of the Tar Heel. The winner in the contest will be honored at a mammoth "Miss Vic tory" dance Saturday night, Febru ary 17, in the gym. Freddie Johnson is expected to play for the dance and $1.00 in war stamps will be the ad mission charge. Coeds sponsored in the contest will make up the figure, which will feature the winner, "Miss Victory," and the. two runners-up. Servicemen are to buy their stamps and bonds at the "Y" booth, which will be staffed: by coed volunteers. Coeds and civilians may buy theirs from dorm representatives or at the "Y." A booth wifl be set up in Navy Hall in the Pre-Flight area at least one afternoon a week for cadets to buy stamps and bonds and to vote for the contesting coeds. . In the "Y" a cardboard plane will be colored from day to day. as bond purchases are made, to show how near the goal is being approached; Three Fraternities For Rushing Following a thorough . investigation by the executive committee of the Interf fraternity Council and the ap proval oi the council, three t Greek letter fraternities on the campus were fined for violations of the rush ing -rules during the past silence pe riod. , , , The case brought against one fra ternity concerned giving a freshman a ride from Chapel Hill to his home in South Carolina during Christmas holidays. The freshman, from the same home town as the fraternity man, was given a ride with no inten tion of rushing and fraternities were not mentioned during the trip. Mem bers of two other fraternities rode in the car also, but they did not know the freshman until they were intro duced asthey entered the car. Neither did they realize that the boy was a freshman until they were weir on their way, The executive committee fined the offending fraternity $20 ana Legislature Thrashes Out Council Bill Speaker Hunt Blames Matter On Tar Heel In a hot session, marked by mis understandings, the Student Legisla ture passed, ' Thursday night, an amendment to the Student Council providing for the election of holdover members of the Student Council. . The amendment, brought forth by a misinterpretation of the original act, provides that in the case of disquali fication from office "of any member of the Student Council a holdover shall be elected by and from the group (civilians, V-12's, Marines, or ROTCs) that elected him. Ed Gaither, chairman of the elec tions: committee announced that all nominations for the current vacancy to be filled by a Marine must be turn ed in to him before 6 p. m. Tuesday, at Iredell HalLi Ti e-new-coraicit mem ber will replace Marine Tom Lane, who has left school. During the course of the debate, Gaither, a V-12er, commented vehe mently on what he thought to be un fair, editorial practices by Charles Wickenberg, TarHeel editor. Gaither explained that Wickenberg had used the editorial columns of last Saturday's Tar Heel for personal grudges. Speaker Doug Hunt also explained that the claim of the discovery of a flaw in the Elections Act by the Tar Heel was unfounded, and that in fact, Libba Wiggins, Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, had discovered the mistake, and had reported it to Wickenberg, who then telephoned to Hunt in Durham to straighten out the situation. Several members of the Legislature commented that the Tar Heel's headline was a mis-statement and a slap in the face of the Legisla ture. At the next meeting, Thursday evening, , the Legislature will discuss the bill providing for the setting up of a class organization for the stu dents graduating in June. Tar Heei Staff There will be an, important meet ing of the Tar Heel staff Monday afternoon at five o'clock in the Ro land Parker lounge of Graham Memorial ruled that the f reshman could not be rushed by that fraternity until March 1 of this year. , , . A second case was brought against a' fraternity in regard to violations of the rushing rules. Five members of the fraternity were seated with a freshman in the Campus Cafe Friday night after rushing hours. Another member of the same fraternity en tered, saw that the other boy was a freshman; and asked him .to leave since there was a silence on all freshmen. The boy left, and members of another fraternity asserted that the freshman had not been seated with the fraternity men over five minutes and that there was no talk about any fraternity. The committee felt that nd benefit had been con veyed, A fine of $10 was placed on the fraternity. - - A Marine, who was a member of a fraternity at another school before See FRATERNITIES, page A Fined Violations General Opening Of University ? kti ftt 5 v if ?

The provisions of the bill, as pre sented by the ways and means com mittee, were that a personality coun cil should be set up in coordination with the Woman's Honor Council and the Dormitory House Councils, and that the council should function for one calendar year. At the end of that time the Senate will vote for continu ance, dissolution, or transferal of the activity to some other organization within the Woman's Government. During debate on the proposed council, Marian Gurney explained that "any girl who comes to Carolina as a student agrees to abide by its rules, and if she breaks her contract, there must be a reason for it. It is the Council's responsibility to find the source of her trouble or discontent." The underlying principle of this council designed to correct a weakness of most woman's governments, is pro tection for the individual as well as for society.- Thus its success will place our woman's government among the most progressive, in any southern uni versity, i - The Speaker appointed a commit tee composed of Tharon Young, Pat Hughes, and Dixie Jean Bodge to study the dormitory house councils, and to make -recommendations for improve ments in the system. , . .-. The next meeting of the Coed Sen ate will be held Tuesday, January 16, at which- time the various, subsidiary organizations will present their yearly reports. , a , Presented to the.
