DEBATING CLUBS
HAVEMETINGS
Both Societies Have Furious
Debate Sessions; Phi Elects
Officers for Next Quarter.
Both tiie Philanthropic assem
bly and Dialetic senate held reg
ular meetings last night. A
special order: Resolved: That
the honor committee tactics be
condemned, occupied the greater
part of the meeting of the Di
alectic senate last night. The
senate passed through a heated
and hectic session in the dis
cussion of the bill to which two
amendments were proposed
which received attention equal
to that . shown the original is
sue. The measure was final
ly tabled when it was seen that
time to discuss it adequately
was lacking. '
Even though no actual vote
was taken, the majority opinion
in the senate showed itself op
posed to the methods which
this self appointed judiciary
committee has adopted in its
pursual of a way -to make the
honor system more effective.
Opinion was decidedly against
the secrecy surrounding the
members of this committee and
their methods of procedure.
The argument .defending - the
committee had as its strong
point the praise of this group
for attempting to improve the
honor system on the campus.
Discussion on the resolution will
be continued at a later session.
The resolutions concerning
the change in the curriculum
now being; discussed by the fac
ulty and the proposal of a suc
cessor to "Chuck". Collins were
both tabled.
Phi Assembly
At the meeting of the Phi
lanthropic assembly, elections
for officers took place - for the
major portion of the meeting.

Self -Help Students to Get Work

"It appears to me that until
the state reemployment office in
Raleigh approves some work
project in Chapel Hill, in addi
tion to those projects already
approved, on which only Univer
sity self-help students . may
work, there is little hope of
placing students on 'civil works'
projects," said Edwin Lanier in
a notice issued for the benefit
of those interested in securing
work in Chapel Hill on the new
projects.
"Some of the University of
ficials are now busy in an ef
fort to secure such an approved
project on which students may
work," he continued. "There
fore, beginning Wednesday
morning, December 6, students
may register in the self-help of
fice as applicants for work on
such projects if and when ap
proved.
Students to Apply
"A list of definitely approved
students for such work may be
needed in getting the approval
of the Raleigh office in regard to
a student work project. It is
well, therefore, that those desir
ous of such work apply at once.

of the mechanical age.

Armed with jnovie magazines,

Sybille Berwanger), certain co

Prouty Asked to Aid
In Silurian Survey
Dr. W. F. Prouty, head of the
geology department of the Uni
versity, has been asked to aid
the National Research council
in its monographic study of the
Silurian rocks of North America.
In this work the Silurian strata
are to be studied in a very de
tailed way both stratagraphical
ly and paleontologically.
Dr. Prouty will contribute the
portion dealing with the im
portant East Tennessee depos
its. Eight other scientists have
been asked to assist the council
in this work. With Dr. C. W.
Swartz of John Hopkins Uni
versity, Prouty has previously
completed a study of the sOurian
strata of Maryland.

Tuberculosis Seals to Be Sold on

The Freshman Friendship

tuberculosis seals on the cam

the last meeting of the officers
of the "Y" cabinets. The sale is
to be held during this week,
closing Saturday.
Each year a Y. M. C. A.
group sponsors the sale of these
seals; the proceeds of which go
to a fund for the arrest and
cure of tuberculosis. The sale
of the seals will be handled in
Chapel Hill by the Community
club.
All students are urged by
members of the council to coop
erate by purchasing as many of
the seals as they can afford to
use in Christmas mailing.

The peculiar thing about the
dryer is that it is so noisy that
the curled co-ed thinks she can
talk as loudly as she pleases
without being heard. If there
is another co-ed sitting across
in a similar dryer, one will lean
out of her air-tirade to discuss
campus problems with the other.

Charge Dropped
As Irial Nears
Parker Drops Action Against
Clark for Theft, But Con
tinues Suits for LibeL
The first of the three actions
which were pending in the court
of "Manning" county, the origi
nal action in which Parker
charged Clark with the theft of
a valuable notebook, has been
dropped.
The two other cases which
grew out of it the suit against
Parker for alleged slander in
accusing Clark of the theft, and
the suit against the. Daily Tab
Heel for libel, are still on the
calendar.
In the slander case, Clark al
leges that he was defamed and
unjustly accused when Parker
made the statement in class,
"He stole my notebook."
In the libel case, Clark at
tacks the Daily Tar Heel for
statements made in an article
in which he was described as
fleeing "like Little Eva across
the river."
Now that the first action is
out of the way Anderson and
Shepherd, counsel for- both
Parker and the Daily Tab Heel,
will attempt to have the . judge,
Dr. Mcintosh, combine the re
maining suits into one. They
will ask that this be done on the
grounds that their defense in
both suits is substantially the
same, namely, that the state
ments at which offense was
taken are true. ;
The attorneys for the defense
feel confident of victory.

PRESSRELEASES
LIFE OF WARDEN
"Osborne of Sing Sing" Presents
Life of a Foremost Prison
Reformer of America.
The University press an
nounced yesterday that it has
released "Osborne of Sing Sing"
by Frank Tannenbaum. The
book presents an account of the
work of Thomas Mott Osborne,
one of the foremost prison re
formers that this country has
ever known. The introduction
is by Franklin D. Roosevelt
. In his introduction to the
work President Roosevelt states,
"Thomas Mott Osborne had
courage; even his enemies admit
that; he had vision; even those
who laughed at him twenty
years ago admit that now. When
Osborne first began his work in
the state of New York the cells,
the food, the sanitation in our
prisons, had changed little from
the status of 1850. .
Osborne a Pioneer
Mr. Osborne was the great
pioneer in calling our attention
to these physical conditions. It
was a voice crying in the wilder
ness, and it has been only in the
past half-dozen years that socie
ty as a whole and leaders of
government have heeded the ap
peal." The first four chapters of the
book give a picture of the
American prison as it existed
in 1910. The balance is devoted
to Osborne's challenge to the
existing penal system, the mag
nificent fight he made, and the
reforms he secured.
Author Experienced
The author is peculiarly fit
tea to write this book. Born in
Austria and coming to America
at the age of twelve, he has be
come an authority on the sub
ject of prisons. His interest in
prisons was derived from a
