Heated Debate Results In Most
Radical Move Made In
Recent Years.,
UPSETS OLD PRECEDENT
' The Phi Assembly last night,
after heated discussion, passed
a resolution admitting co-eds
into the Phi Assembly with full
privileges of that institution.
The representatives speaking
for the resolution were McDufBe,
James, Wilkinson, Neely, Kelly
and Campen. The opposition
was composed of Representa
tives Hobgood, Brown, Baldwin,
Haywood, Albright and Naza
reno. .. -
The main contention of those
favoring the resolution was that
the co-eds had been admitted to
practically every other organiza
tion on the campus, and the Phi
Assembly should not entertain
any objections to their becoming
members.
Those opposing the admission
of co-eds to the assembly con
fended that they had. not shown
any desire to enter and they
should not be granted the right.
Nazareno in his speech said :
"You class them your equals;
you forget their place."
The Phi favored a resolution
submitted by Representative
Speight that the assembly should
hold a dance in the near future
in the assembly hall. ,
Senator J. C. Williams from
the Di informed the assembly
that the Bingham, debate had
been decided upon. The ques
tion to be discussed in this de

' Because of many "requests '
for another period in which
orders for senior commence
ment invitations may be given,
the committee in charge of
taking these orders has de
cided that it will accept orders
today and tomorrow. : -
The committee states that
this is positively the last time
that invitation orders can be
given, and that anyone want
ing them must place his order
during these two days.
There will be someone in
both Patterson's and Sutton's
from 1 :30 to 9 o'clock on these

DI PREPARES FOR
BINGHAM DEBATE
Senators To Hold Banquet In
May ; Proposal For Dance
Is Defeated.
At the regular meeting of the
Dialectic Senate, in the Di hall
last night, an enthusiastic group
of senators were parties to a
number of important legislative
transactions.
In regard to the Bingham de
bate, an annual affair which is
sponsored by both the Di . and
Phi, the senate voted to accept
the following query: "Resolved,
That the government of the
United States should recognize
the Soviet Union." The senate
also agreed to take the negative
side of the question. Participa
tion in this debate is limited to
members of the junior class
only. Teams representing both
societies will immediately be
chosen.
Unanimous approval greeted
Senator Dungan's motion that a
committee be appointed to draw
up plans for a banquet to be
given at the Carolina Inn during
the third week of May, that the
Phi Assembly be urged to take
part, and that the Honorable
Josephus Daniels be invited to
deliver an address upon this oc
casion. Senators Dratler, Dun
gan and Patterson were ap
pointed to serve on this commit
tee. Following two amendments,
the report of the improvement
committee was accepted by the
senate. This report included the
following: rule, which is now in
effect: "Upon the event of two
unexcused absences from Di
meetings during a single quar
ter, the offending senator will
be automatically dropped from
the senate and barred from all
social activities engaged in by
the senate."
A motion proposed by Presi
dent Rector, that in the future
the vote of the senate be taken
It was announced by Presi
dent Rector that only one more
initiation meeting will be held
this quarter, at which time all
new men will be admitted.
Greene Speaks Monday
Dean Bradshaw announced
yesterday at chapel period that
"Red" Greene, incoming presi
dent of the student body, had
requested that the installation, of
student body officers for next
year be postponed until next
Monday.
To Sell Invitations
OIL INSTITUTE WILL
SPONSOR PROJECT
HERE NEXT YEAR
Chemistry Department An
nounces Award of Two New
Fellowships By American Pe
troleum Institute.
Professor R. W. Bost has re
cently received word from the
American Petroleum Institute
that two new research fellow
ships will be sponsored by the
Institute here next year. The
Institute already has one fellow
ship in chemistry here, Mr. Mil
ler Conn being the holder.
At present the national re
search council has 42 research
projects in as many universities
in the United States and abroad.
The, project at the University
of North Carolina is listed as
project No. 41.
The acquisition of these re
search fellowships places the de
partment, of chemistry at Caro
lina along beside that of other
larger universities in this coun
try. At present the University
of North Carolina and the Uni
versity of Texas are the only
southern universities that have
been honored with these fellow
ships. Some of the larger uni
versities which have received
fellowships are Johns Hopkins,
Harvard, Princeton, Northwest
ern, Illinois, Minnesota, Michi
gan, California, Leland Stan
ford, Missouri, Penn. State, the
University of Brussels in Bel
gium, and Charles University, in
Czechoslovakia.' - "
. The, fellowships entitle the
holder to take graduate work and
to devote his whole time to re
search work. Eleven months
each year are to be devoted to
the work and one month to va
cation.
In project No. 41 the "Thio
phanes" are being studied. These
are organic sulphur compounds
which occur in petroleum and
the reactions pf which very little
is
known. A number of these
compounds have been prepared
in the , chemistry laboratory
here by Dr. Bost and Mr. Conn,
and their properties are being
studied at present. '
The new fellowship will take
up the study of the substituted
"Throphanes" and the substi
tuted "Thiophenes." As the
nronerties are unknown, the
A mT
preparation of these compounds
is very laborious and time con
suming. Under the present
grant, however, several part
time men will be employed dur
ing the coming summer to as
sist in the preparation of the
sulphur compounds. This will
make it possible to obtain earlier
results.

MISSING CAROLINA
STUDENTLCCATED
Bill Pemberton Returns Home
After Two Months Of
Wandering.
One of the mysteries arising
from the recent disappearance
of two students from the Uni
versity was explained yesterday
by a report received from the
parents of Bill Pemberton of.
Greensboro that Bill, who dis
appeared from the campus over
two months ago, had returned
home.
Mr. T. Pemberton, who was
here recently in search of the
missing boy, is now happy in
the return of his son, while the
mother of M. P.Moorer, whose
more sensational disappearance
occurred in March, is yet un
aware of the whereabouts of the
other Carolina student, whose
abrupt departure caused a na
tionwide search.
From all appearances young
Pemberton has returned home
after nothing more than an ex
tended period of wandering.
Penn Harrison, of Chapel Hill,
and former student at the Uni
versity, has stated that on a
recent trip north he saw him in
Philadelphia. It is understood
that New York, which held much
interest for' the ' lad, figured
prominently in his wanderings.
The manner of his travel is not
known, but it is a matter of rec
ord that he returned penniless,
and by no means proud of his
adventures.
Although Pemberton did - not
leave Chapel Hill until February
he was not registered in school
last quarter. SHe has already
begun work for his father, and
will, of course, not return to
school this year. He will prob
ably register here again next
fall.
