ormitory Clubs to Organize
Tonight; First Year Men To
Be Guests of Upper classmen
Members of Dormitory Groups
Will Gather in Their Social
I Rooms This Evening at 10:30.
It has been the custom dur
ing the last few years to set
aside one night in the early part
of the fall quarter for the or
ganization of the dormitories
and tonight is set for this fall's
meeting. Usually the freshmen
are entertained with food and
speech by the upperclassmen, as
a gesture that the student body
of the university is interested in
making friends as well as in the
pursuit of education. '
In those dormitories that have
sociaL rooms, the members will
gather at 10:30 p. m. Other
dormitories will have their meet
ings in the first floor halls or
; sections. Proper signs or other
means of communication will be
used by the dormitory presi
dents to inform the members of
the meeting. j
At these first meetings the
men ,are encouraged to get ac
quainted; to elect dormitory of
ficers not already elected; and
after the main meetings . the
members will retire to their re
spective floors or sections and
elect the councilmen. Two
councilmen are elected from
each floor or section, and sitting
with the dormitory presidents
chairman, comprise the dormi
tory council. . This council has
jurisdiction over the dormitory
deportment, and other affairs
peculiar to each dormitory. The
student council last year em
powered the dormitory councils
with complete authority over
dormitory disturbances. The
powers of the councils will be
explained in detail at the dormi
tory meetings.
Each dormitory is entitled to
send two representatives to the
meetings of the Carolina dormi
tory club. This organization
deals with the various problems
which face the . dormitory occu
pants and legislates concerning
them. The object of the club for
the past four years has been to
make the dormitories better
places in which to live andv study.
Many men have moved out of
dormitories because of excessive
noise. This condition should not
exist. The dormitories should be
the best places on the Hill to live.
The club is trying to make them
so.
All dormitory members are
urged to turn out for these first
meeting. The new men are es
, pecially .urged to attend and find
out the Carolina method of per
Ifecting self-government in the
dormitories. r

- J. Maryon Saunders, execu
tive secretary of - the General

that all alumni ,clubs of the uni
versity will meet on October 11
instead of October 12, as was
previously planned.
One of the main objects of
this meeting will be to increase
the number of active , alumni
clubs in this state. There are
alumni'living in every county of

being made to have more alumni
club meetings during the com
ing year than have been held in
the past.

Publishers Syndicate,
CHANGE IN GLEE
CLUB ANNOUNCED
New Head of Music Department
. Announces Plans for
Fall.
An entirely new policy for the
coming year will be adopted by
the glee club, Harold S. Dyer,
head of the musical department,
said Thursday. "Enough men
for more than four clubs have
answered the first call of the
year, and places on the first club
will be awarded after intense
competition," he stated.
Decrying the habit of the old
men remaining away from prac
tice sessions until immediately
before the trips, Mr. Dyer said
that all men failing to appear at
every practice will be dropped
from the group. "Instead of a
select group of 30 to go through
the year, 65 men will be kept in
the club this season and the 30
men to make the trip will not.
be selected until time for the
trip grows near," he said.
Dr. Dyer announced that in
spite of the fact that the dead
line for glee club tryouts was
made yesterday at 4 p. m., there
will be another opportunity for
men interested in this work to
tryout later providing special
appointment is made with him.
He is particularly anxious to
give every person in the univer
sity who is interested in music
a chance to tryout for the club.
He has discovered some wonder
ful talent in previous tryouts,
and he hopes to find more.

American Association of the
Colleges of Pharmacy held in
South Dakota, Professor J. G.
Beard of the university's school
of pharmacy was elected presi
dent. Pharmacy School
To Require Four
Years for Degree
The school of pharmacy an
nounces that in 1932 the three
year course, in pharmacy lead
ing to the Ph. G. degree will be
changes to a four-year course.
This change of policy is dictated
by a new ruling of the American
association of schools of phar
macy which requires all phar
macy schools claiming member
ship . to institute a four-year
course.
Interesting statistics are of
fered by Professor Beard of the
pharmacy department relative to
the required change. For the
last three years pharmacy stu
dents have been voluntarily
changing from the three-year
Ph. G. course required by the
school of pharmacy to the four
year B. S. in pharmacy required
of those in the school of applied
science. This year 18 of the 81
students registered for phar
macy are voluntarily taking the
four-year course.

the work is of a large variety,

to take part in the work of the
Playmakers begin now, in order

with the Playmakers is a satis
factory scholastic standing.
Otherwise, the selection of ac

student interested, would be held
