Bill Stubbs Loves Carolina, Tennis,
UNC, Sleep, Chapel Hill And A Girl
By Dave Lilienthal
Declaring firmly that it would
take centuries to tell of his real ap
preciation of Carolina, Head Cheer
leader Bill Stubbs still admits that
he is a South Carolinian born and a
Georgian bred.
Ever since arriving at Chapel
Hill in September, '43, he has shown
plenty of interest in proving his de
votion to UNC, for he has taken part
in many campus organizations.' His
recent election as Head Cheerleader
is just a slightly larger feather in
his over-crowded cap.
In his campus career, Bill has
been a member of the Di Senate, the
Tar Heel, the Men's Glee Club, and
Sound and Fury, while he's current
ly in the Order of the Gimghoul,
, treasurer of the University Club
and in the Monogram Club. He
joined Phi Delta Theta fraternity
in October, 1943, after a brief so
journ in Steele and Carr dormi

Articles From
Three Nations
To Go On Sale
Low Retail Prices
To Feature Event
By Mary Hill Gaston
United Nations Fund Week
will formally begin here at 9
o'clock Monday morning, when
articles from our three big al
lies Russia, Britain, and China
go on sale in the Y.
From 9 until 5 o'clock every day
through Saturday next week, volun
teer workers will sell articles sent
to Carolina from national United Na
tions Fund headquarters in New
York.
Sponsored by the War Coordination
Board, the week-long program will
feature an address by Dr. Eugene E.
Pfaff, head of the Southern Council
on International Relations, at 8
o'clock Wednesday night, May 2, in
Gerrard Hall.
Purpose of Event
Primary purpose of the event is to
develop interest in the entire UNF
program. Since articles in the bazaar
will be sold at nominal prices, it is
not expected that their sale will net
any sizeable amount to be sent to
national headquarters.
On sale at the Y will be a variety
of things. From Russia there will be
cigarette boxes, match cartons, lip
stick, compacts, kerchiefs and pen
cils." British" items ' include all sorts
of leather goods, greeting cards, cor
respondence cards, ladies' lapel pins,
calendars, telephone and address
books and diaries. From China will
come pencils, greeting cards, post
cards and key cases, all to be sold at
prices no higher than those found in
retail stores.

committee planning the program. Her

Play Tryouts Planned
Preliminary tryouts for two parts,
Katherina and Petruchio, in "The
Taming of the Shrew," which is to
be presented in the Forest Theatre,
will be held at 4:30 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon in the Playmaker Theatre.
Due to the short period of time
available for preparation of the an
nual Forest Theatre production after
presentation of the original full
length play, Virginia Page Spencer's
"Calliope" on May 10-12, it is neces
sary to begin work on "The Taming
of the Shrew" now.
Vigorous students with strong voices
for outdoor acting are particularly
urged to try out for part3 in this ex
tremely lively production.
charm for him, however, because of
his circle of friends, including a
certain young lady for whom Bill
has the highest Tegard.
Anxious to leave no doubts in any
one's mind that Carolina is tops
with him 24 hours a day, Bill con
fesses that Georgia Tech was his
second choice. Here he is a junior
majoring in law, and despite his
great interest and success in campus
politics, Bill announces that post
college politicking ia definitely out.
Standing at medium height, his
pleasant features topped by curling
carrot hair, Bill Stubbs presents a
vital and energetic picture. He
speaks quickly and easily, with an
ever-present spark of humor. With
cheerleading responsibilities before
him, he is already planning new
yells and a new set of uniforms for
the cheerleaders. If the rest of the
squad follows their active leader,
you can be sure of a snappy group
of cheerleaders, to spur Carolina on
to new victories in the coming year.
