TO BE NOMINATED
Candidates for Magazine Head
To Be Nominated in Memo
rial Hall Tomorrow.
Candidates for the editorship
of the "Carolina Magazine" will
be nominated tomorrow morn
ing during assembly period in
Memorial hall.
At the election last spring
there were three candidates for
the editorship of the "Magazine"
and as no one candidate received
a majority, there was a run-off
and E. C. Daniel was elected edi
tor. This" fall, because he had
become during the summer an
associate editor of a daily news
paper, Daniel failed to return to
the University, leaving the edi
torship vacant.
Harper Barnes, meeting ah
unprecedented situation, ap
pointed Bob Barnett acting-editor
to handle the first issue be
cause he was editor last year and
had experience.
Now thatrthe registration list
has been checked, it will be pos
sible to conduct the nominations
and elections.
If necessary to conduct a spe
cial ballot election; that is, if
there is more than one nominee,
this election will be run off Wed
nesday with the freshmen being
allowed to cast their votes.

by the Freshman Friendship
council as part of its regular
Monday night meeting. The
roast will take place at H. F.
Comer's residence. The fresh
men will transact little business,
simply deciding upon the proce
dure of their election next week,
and spending the rest of the
time getting acquainted.
The sophomore and the junior-senior
councils will devote
their, time at their Monday
night meeting to setting up com
mittees and making a complete
organization of members into
working committees. Each
member will be given his choice
of the committee he will serve
on, and each member except the
secretary will be on some com
mittee. Harland Sick

CHAPEL HILL, N. C SUNDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1933
T. E. P. IS AWARDED
SCHOLARSHIP CUP
Prize Is Offered Annually by Inter-
Fraternity Council.
Dr. G. K. G. Henry, assistant
registrar of the University, an
nounced yesterday that the Tau
Epsilon Phi fraternity had been
officially awarded the interfra
ternity scholarship cup for the
school year 1932-33.
In bestowing the cup, Dr.
Henry commented on the un
usualness of the Tau Epsilon
Phi fraternity's having won
it for the third successive year.
The scholarship cup is award
ed annually by the Interf rater
nity council to the local of the
national fraternity maintaining
the highest . scholastic average
throughout the year. For 1932
33 Tau Epsilon Phi achieved an
average of 2.66, two points bet
ter than its nearest competitor,
S. A. E. -
It was the idea of the Inter
fraternity council that inaugu
ating the award would improve
scholarship on t h e campus.
Time has supported this view,
for the general feeling on the
campus is now to the effect that
Greek letter scholarship is on
par with that achieved by non
fraternity men.

RUSSELL WRIT
NEW BIOGRAPHY
Author Has Worked on Life of
William the Conqueror Since
Return From England.
The new book of Phillips Rus
sell, member of the University
faculty, will be a life of William
the Conquerer to be published
by Charles Scribner and Sons
the latter part of this month.
The actual title of the biography
is still uncertain because Hilaire
Belloc, an English writer, has
written a biography of the same
man. .
Russell has been working on
this book at intervals since his
return from England, where he
spent five years collecting this
and other material. While liv
ing in England, the author seiz
ed the opportunity to explore
the famous battlefield of Hast
ings, where the Norman invad
er defeated Harold of England
in 1066. Russell was spurred
on in this not only because of
the historical interest, but also
because his grandmother, Mrs.
Charles Phillips, was a member
of the Battle family which, ac
cording to an old legend, got its
name from that of Hastings.
Finds "Senlac" House
Russell said that he "found
there in the town which has
grown up on the battlefield, a
house near Battle Abbey (the
first building erected by Wil
liam to commemorate his vic
tory) which carried a name
plate with the word 'Senlac
which is the name long applied
to the home of Dr. K. P. Battle
here (now occupied by John M.
Booker) and which gives its
name uj otiuat iuou.
The writer further stated
that although he was unable to
obtain more evidence due to the
sparseness of the ancient re
cords, he did find his own name
on the roll of the conquerors
which is kept in the abbey, only
it was spelled with one "1" in
stead of two. This bears out,
apparently, a vague tradition in
his father's family that the
name is of Norman origin. It
is interesting to know that this
