Our contention is that they should not be denied the benefits of 4 years of this instruction! After having had two years. of train ing at the average woman's col lege of this state or of the South, girls are not appreciably better fitted to cope successfully with the problems which confront them here on the campus and in the classrooms of the Univer sity. There is not enough simi larity between conditions here and those surrounding the wom an's colleges of the state to oc casion any appreciable transfer. It was only after a long and bitter fight that girls were ad mitted regularly to the Univer sity at all.

Euripides. this is the case, however, the University of North Carolina j will not be a full-fledged coedu cational institution. The State of North Carolina is being won over to the fact that its future greatness does not lie solely in the male sex. "The hand that rocks the cradle" must not be forgotten in this grand old commonwealth. Full fledged coeducation is the next milestone which the University must reach in its program. This change, although it will come about gradually, is a certainty. Full-fledged coeducation, once it is established here, will be "as fixed and unchangeable as the laws of the Medes and Per sians." J. C. W. Carolina Needs Full-Fledged Co-Education Comparatively speaking, co education is a recent thing at the University of North Caro lina. The "mixed student body" experiment is still in the infant stage. Even the erection of Spencer Hall is an event of the last decade. After having con sidered the results of the pres ent system of partial coeduca tion,' the writer is convinced that the University should be completely coeducational. The development of this point of view is the purpose of this writ mg. At present' Carolina admits only those girls who have com pleted enough work at other institutions to enable them to be enrolled in the junior and senior classes. Carolina must be clas sified, therefore, as a semi coeducational university. Al though there are many advan tages of excluding girls from the freshman and sophomore class es, there seem to be many unsurmountable disadvantages which go hand in hand with such a system. . The curricular requirements of Queens College, Meredith, Agnes Scott, N. C. C. W., etc., are so, utterly different from those of the University of North Carolina that even those who enter here with eighteeen courses credit are usually ob liged to take many freshman and sophomore courses to "get off" the required work of those two ' years. Such transfers are given credit for much of the work done elsewhere only for entrance purposes the major ity of such work being counted as elective, but a very appreci ative amount of it not counting toward graduation at all. Clear ly, the admission of girls to al four classes would eliminate this difficulty. Looking at the matter from j another angle, is there any rea son why girls should not be ad- FRATS ENTERTAIN AT HOUSE PARTIES Theta Chi and Lambda Chi Alpha Give Dances At Inn Over Week-End. A Plea For Study A deserted, dreary, rain swept campus is never quite the ideal audience for any speak er, but in the matter of the shut-down of the hosiery mill at Carrboro, it matters not if the entire student body and the f ac ulty were to carefully read this notice, for they can do nothing, absolutely nothing to prevent this stroke of ill-fortune for the 200 workers, and families of the mill. Yet, that is not completely rue. For, although readers are powerless to stay this inevitable result of over-production, they may pe miiuencea, not merely by this one incident, but by many similar ruthless, cold, un feeling shut-downs, to take a greater interest in the why's and wherefore's of such economic movements. And, once interest ed to that degree, they will in all probability, study the various practical plans that have been suggested to alter the too ob viously unbalanced economic system. There, in Carrboro, the manufacturing company is faced with an all too common busi ness problem. Over-production- low, price-operation can only be continued at a loss for an ini definite period all these force the mill-owners to notify their workers that the mill will "be shut down as soon as the stock on hand is manufactured into the finished product. The owners of that particular mill can not be blamed for anything that they have done. Nor can the workers be chided for lack of class-consciousness or "desire for their rights." Both of them are acting as they must under A certain condition in a certain system. Those people who al- reluctantly verified the report.

Well, listen, I'm paying for this at the rate of two bucks a minute, so catch it, and don't talk back. This week-end is over, thank the Lord, so there's a little breathing spell from the prom-hoppers and high school children. How about a quiet little date next week on the Hill? No? Well, there's no reason to be so cold about it. Listen, baby, you know it's been a damn hard month for me in the old law school. We've had elections there too, you know, and we've all been busy dodging mud and keeping out of f rames-and I don't mean picture frames, either. Huh? Hell, gal, I wrote and told you all about it. Well, they're in now, and it ought to be over it ought to be, but it isn't. You know, I heard (Mr. Malone's voice dropped at this point and became very confiden tial, so that Central missed it until Mr. Malone picked it up at this point) . . . and he was supposed to have offered his shirt, a brand new set of poker chips, and two empty pint bot tles all for two votes. Yep, and he got 'em, too. Yeh. Since you were last here, baby, Memorial Hall was destroyed, so we can't have any more of those dates in the gal lery. . . . But they do say that Kenan Stadium is open these days, and nights, and that the clover is in bloom. . . . And I'm sorry you won't be able to catch the Wigue and Masque produc tion this year, because there's no place to have it. So you won't get a chance to bust your Stays laughing, as you said you did last year. But that's all right, there'll be another one along next year. By the way, you remerriber that little spot we dated in in the Arboretum? Oh, the hel you don't! Well, anyway, it's The social activities of the past week-end were limited to a group of three fraternity dances and a house party. Theta Chi entertained Friday night from 9 until 1 o'clock in the ballroom of the Carolina Inn. While, in the same room on Saturday af ternoon from 4 until 7, Mr. and Mrs. Householder of Durham gave a dance honoring the guests of the Lambda Chi Alpha house party. And again on Sat urday evening the Lambda Chi Alpha's were hosts to a large group of local and out-of-town people from 9 until 12. The Inn ballroom was decorat- "Horse-play!" What an awful feeling this word brings to the minds of a few of the unfortun ate pledges that have not yet had their turn. And for those pledges that have completed their pre-initiation stunts, this word is looked upon with un pleasant memories. Many of the noted "Greeks" have finished their perform ances long ago, but there still remain quite a few that have been more considerate of their freshmen by giving them time to "get in condition." There still can be seen numerous weary looking creatures, trying to get back to civilization, creep ing along the many county roads leading to and from the Hill. And if anyone in a passing car would do the poor mortals the kindness to stop and pick one of them up, the driver would hear some of the weird and monotonous-deeds that this sleepless lad has ex perienced in the past few days and nights. ' Many are thef queer things that the ' night watchman sees as he makes his rounds during the latter part of the night and early hours of the morning. Ghosts dressed in white sheets, "sleepy-eyed" ireshmen looking for the "unseen eyes" that are watching them, 'and many other such sights are witnessed by the night owl and the watchman. These sights are apparently not confined to the darkness of the night,' for if one will be on the lookout, he will see numer ous things during the course of a day that will give him a good laugh provided he is hard- eat such mess as a hungry dc would turn up his nose at. few other pitiful pre-initiates are made to walk all over Orange Durham, and Wake counties on treasure hunts only to end the wearisome journey by finding the treasure to be a long wooden paddle that will soon be put into use. ' Numerous other stages of ini tiation are going on, on the cam pus, but it would take a volume to hold the entire list. The only consolation that these meek vic tims have is that they will "get it back" on the others when they come in next year. One neophyte, who was prob ably instructed to catch a bird before coming back to the frat house, was seen late yesterday afternoon running about the campus with a handful of salt which he was going to sprinkle on birdie's tail. Still others, probably with the same instruc tions, could be seen waiting longingly for a bird to come and stick his head in the cunningly set trap of a baking powder box. ed in the University colors of hearted enough to overlook the blue and white for all of the dances. Music for the Theta Chi dance Was furnished by Alex Mendenhall and his Tar Heel Boys, directed by Billy Ar thur. Ty Sawyer's Buccaneers play ed for both the afternoon and night dances on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Householder, Dr. and Mrs. Fussier, and Dr. and Mrs. A. K. King were chaperons for these dances The Lambda Chi's also enter tained at a week-end house party in connection with their dance. The following is the list of guests: Misses Mary Ayers and Linda Connelly of Taylorsville, Grace Dean Forrester of North Wilkesboro, Dorothy Stutz and Katherine Wiley of Southern Pines, Anna Gray Watson of Louisburg, Hortense Herring of Winston Salem, Teddy Estes and Katherine Morrison of Dan ville, Va., Louise Harrison and Anne Rogers of Durham, Ade- 1 laide Fortune of Greensboro, Hazel Baumgartner of Belmont, Adelaide McAuley of High Point, Pete Hamer of Keysville, Va., Anne Arrowsmith of Hillsboro, Mary Stringf ield of Waynesville, Courtney Peace of New York City, and Mrs. J.

Other actions which do not cause so much pain to the poor "f reshie" . may also be wit nessed. Such things as having to port two eggs around in each pocket seem to have become quite a fad with a number of the fraternities. Others seem to take great delight in making the poor, worn-out "neophytes" UNIVERSITY TEAM TO MEET VIRGINIA IN RADIO DEBATE (Continued from first page) those which are needed for police purposes."
