Music Week Of interest to music lovers in the Chapel Hill community is the announcement that in con nection with national music week beginning May 4 a com plete program has been arrang ed for Chapel Hill. This pro gram which will provide almost every type of music has been arranged by a committee repre senting the University and practically all organizations in Chapel Hill. The University band and glee, club will give performances, while the Carolina Theatre will present the "Rogue Song." Cli maxing the week's program will be the appearance of the Cincin nati Chamber Orchestra as a part of the Student Entertain ment program for the spring quarter. Without doubt there are many who will welcome a rest from the continual blare of jazz mu sic broadcast almost continually from practically all radio sta tions. It is seldom that an op- are here, it should behoove us to take a certain amount of inter est in the courses offered in spite of what our reason for attend ing this institution may be. In doing this, a variety of subjects studied will doubtlessly aid our future lives in quantities which we have no means of estimating. Philosophy is one of those subjects which have been more or less neglected by the students of the University. Just why, it would be hard to say. The word itself suggests to many that it is mysterious. Some may even think that long hair and, dirty hands are necessary in studying it. However, whatever th'e rea sons may be, it has not been given the attention by the stu dents that it should. As defined, philosophy is the study of thought, and the re sults of thinkers who have proved their theories correct to a certain extent. One is en couraged to try to visualize life and all it contains. It does not attempt to tear down one's re ligion or one's ideals. On the contrary, it fends toward re- enforcing them. The ultimate aim in philosophy is to find out that which is true without reser vation. If ideals and beliefs must be hidden and untried, wherein lies their value? Many theories by philosophers have been denounced by a vast ma jority. However, this majority did little in finding out whether these theories were true or false. Yet they were philosophizing when they declared them false. To think is to philosophize. So, it may prove advantageous to learn how to think correctly as well as with some degree of originality. In short, it is my opinion that one of the best courses now offered by the Uni versity is being slighted cause lessly and most unprofitably. H. D. Campus Life should come to recognize the co ed. She is no longer a curiosity ; she is as much a part of a college of the present day as the male student. The prejudice that has existed in the east and the south against co-eds is hard to understand. Girl students in the midwestern and far western universities are ' never thought of with anathema; their pres ence on the campus is not looked upon grudgingly. They are never thought of as a subject for con troversy. But on the Atlantic coast' co-eds have had a hard time breaking down this preju dice. Even such urbane insti tutions as Cornell and the Uni versity of Pennsylvania have regarded her doubtfully, ten tatively, and have finally come to accept her presence as inevi table. The south has held to her barriers as long as possible, but now they are being washed! away in a flood of reasonable tolerance and a tacit accep tance of the principles of ad vancing feminism. R.

The Growing Equality Of the Co-ed Now that the Phi Assembly has at last let down the bars of membership to include the fair sex many old timers, as well as present undergraduates, are probably asking what the state university is coming-to. It re quires little effort to remember the number of objections that were raised against changing Carolina to a coeducational in stitution when the proposition was first debated. But in spite of those numerous and violent objections the deed was done; the march of progress con tinued, and women were allowed to enter the university, in the junior and senior classes, any how. And of course they were admitted to the professional schools. , In spite of the many dire con jectures of and probably wishes for the failure of the innova tion, the co-ed has come, has stayed, and slowly but surely is The number of sity student and a member of the Phi Assembly, came prom inently into the limelight yes terday when his views on the question of , admitting women into the assembly were pub lished in the Daily Tar Heel. In an interview yesterday af ternoon Nazareno offered an ex planation of his statements which evolved into an interest ing and delightful discourse on "What Men Want in. Women." His talk on this subject follows : die for her. No man would ask of a woman to place him on a pedestal; he would hate it; neither would he accept her pro tection.

Review Prints Copy Henderson's Address Copies of the Sewanee Re view containing the 1929 com mencement address of the Uni versity of the South (Sewanee) delivered by Dr. Archibald Hen derson of the mathematics de partment of the University of North Carolina have been re ceived here recently. The subject of Dr. Hender son's address was "The Higher Scholarship." Dr. Henderson shows the need of a super scholarship and the means of obtaining it. No real woman would be happy all her life working in a busi ness office, and living in com mon apartment houses. Always an average woman wants a home if she has a chance. Such ideas may be out of date, but they are still good ideas.

The Study Of Philosophy Many have wondered just why they came to college, and numer ous of their acquaintances have wondered also. Some ' come to participate in athletics, some to there are two sororities on the campus and probably will be more before long. More and more is the Carolina co-ed com ing into her own ; there are girls on the staffs of the campus pub lications, and girls take part in every activity that is not too in decorous. They even have a basketball team ! And now, final proof that the female of the species is getting perilously near par with the status of the long dominant male of the University campus, the Phi Assembly, au gust, formal, secure in its tra dition and its history, proud in its claim of being the training ground of a president of the Uni ted States, to say nothing of numerous prominent lawyers j "The Daily Tar Heel in sum marizing my speech at the Phi Assembly with regard to ex tending to women absolute and equal rights that the men enjoy, quoted the following: 'you class them as your equals'; 'you for got their place.' Such two phrases are too beautiful to change, therefore I shall not try to defend myself, but only ex plain what I mean. "I don't know if it is safe for any man to judge women with out exposing himself to ridicule and criticism one must judge fairly. The Spanish writers, af ter an exhaustive study of the nature and character of the fair sex contented themselves by asking: 'Mujer que astro eres' (woman what star art thou) . They saw in women the work of God in its perfection. This is auite a contrast to wnat we learned from Bill Shakespeare: 'Frailty thy name is woman.' "That same idea is not con fined to Bill alone ; King Solo mon advised his men never to trust women not even their wives. A certain Russian scien tist studied the women of the world as he would an insect un der a microscope; afterwards he published a volume entitled: What Do You Know about Wo men.' To the great surprise of the readers the book was found blank from cover to cover except the title on the front page.
