Delegate Majority Is For detention;
But, Shucks, There? No Convention
As a result of the method of
balloting employed in Tuesday's
voting on the repeal question,
North Carolina finds itself with
120 convention delegates -but
with no convention for them to
attend. -
And all the delegates have
their minds made up as to which
way to vote on the matter. Six
teen are opposed to retention of
the 18th amendment, and 106
are all for it.
But these gentlemen will nev
er have the opportunity to cast
formally their votes.
It happened this way:
According to a provision of
the North Carolina constitution,
there can be no constitutional
convention in North Carolina

unless the question "convention'
or "no convention" first be put
to the people and carried.
Last spring, by a three-one
vote, the North Carolina Su
preme court handed down a de
cision declaring that a conven
tion on a federal constitutional
question, according to the state
constitution, would have to be
called by the people of the state.
The state constitution also
states that the people will choose
delegates who will attend the
convention, if called.
So yesterday, while declaring
that they wanted no convention
for a vote on the proposed 21st
amendment, the people elected
delegates to a convention that
will never be held.

Saunders Releases
Football "Review"
With stories on Carolina's
win over State College, the regu
lar weekly football issue of the
Alumni Review, edited by J.
Maryon Saunders, was distri
buted yesterday from the office
of the alumni association.
General write-ups of the game
are displayed on the first pages
of the number. Coach Collins,
in his weekly column on the
first page, states that although
the Tar Heels played better
football against State, that the
brand of playing was not as good
as it could have been. Speak
ing of the Wake Forest game,
Carolina's head football coach
says, "Wake Forest will be a
tough game for the Tar Heels."
Statistics on the game, line
ups, a summary of the two sides,
and a play-by-play account of
tne state-Uaroima matcn are
given. The freshman football
squad's undefeated season and
the coming Wake Forest game
are discussed in the latter part
of the supplement. The issue is
illustrated with pictures of the
teams in action.
Dr. Jackson Leaves
Dr. W. C. Jackson, dean of
the school of public administra

national conference on govern

and closes Sunday. Dr. Jackson
will return to the campus Mon
day. Frantic, Hurried Preparations
Made for Town to Withdraw
From North Carolina.
Revolution has been narrowly
averted in North Carolina.
Chapel Hill, cut to the quick
and stung to fury by the dry
avalanche registered Tuesday,
has finally been persuaded to
abandon its impulsive plot to se
cede from the state.
Long before the ballots had
been completely counted, omin
ous rumblings of rebellion swept
from home to home in the usual
ly passive village. Farewell let
ters were written to parents in
Charlotte, New Bern, Lexing
ton, and other "centers of liber
alism" ; ornamental firearms and
swords were removed from the
wall to serve as weapons in de
fending- the town asrainst Da
vid Clark, Cam Morrison, Cale
K. Burgess, Furnifold M. Sim
mons and whole tribes of moun
taineers froni west, of Asheville;
telegrams were sent to Walter
Murphy, Bob Reynolds, and R.
H. Lassiter, urging them to join
the "glorious revolution of
1933."
MilitiaTakes Shape ;
Shouting, "This is the
est state in the union," the Caro
lina minute-men tore about town
enlisting everyone from "Uncle
Bill' McDade to Judge Winston
in their ranks. Prominent Cam
pus journalists attacked their
typewriters savagely to write
off ultimata to Governor Ehring
haus. In substance these mis
sives stated that the youth of
Chapel Hill, representing the
youth of the state, had been
aroused to such militant shame

Honor Is Heart of Self-
Government, States
University Head.
"The honor system is the very
heart of student self-government,"
said President Frank
Graham yesterday at the sopho
more assembly in his address
of the school year to the stu
dents. Dr. Graham stated that the
rebirth of real student govern
ment was coming out of this
sophomore class. It is now be
coming a government of the stu
dent body, and not as was in the
19th and early 20th centuries
a government where the presi
dent of the senior class was ex
officio president of the student
body.
Century of Tradition
"More than 100 years of tra
dition are speaking through the
voters at the spring elections
when they elect campus and
class officers. We have been
moving ahead. At first we had
proctors and faculty govern
ment," said Dr. Graham, "now
we have student government
and the honor system, which
grows better men and carries
out the ideals of the University."
President Graham cited a con
fidential survey that had been
made o universities employing
the honor system and those
which had the proctor system.
According to this report, proof
was8 given that thehf is much
more cheating in institutions
employing proctors than in
schools with he honor system.
According to Dr. Graham,
when a student registers at this
University he becomes a mem-
1 A 4
oer oi a sen-governing com
munity based on the ideals , of
the honor system, and must up
hold that nonor system or pack
up his belongings and go else
where. "There is more than one man
who stands for the honor sys-
