BOARD APPROVES
EXPENDITURE FOR
A1MALPRINT1G
"Yackety Yack Budget Increased
$1,000 over Last. Year for
Improvement of Book.
Aboard purposes deficit
The Publications Union board
yesterday approved the expendi
ture of $8,994 by Alex Andrews,
editor of the Yackety Yack, for
printing and engraving costs.
This amount is over $1500 more
than was necessary last year.
Andrews' budget called for a
much larger annual The 1934
edition will be 9 by 12 inches
awhile last year's book was 74
by 10 inches.
Due to high labor costs and
other causes Andrews' expenses
Tiave been unavoidably increased.
The definite policy of the
board to reduce the surplus of
the union and to improve the
publications was revealed in the
statement of estimated accounts
for the annual. Over" $800 has
been deducted from the revenue
of the book through the reduc
tion of the; representative fees
from juniors and seniors and
.another $800 of revenue was
purposely deducted by the
board's action in allowing a 20
per cent discount for organiza
tions paying Yackety Yack costs
Jbef ore a certain date.
' Deficit on Purpose
A budget for all four publi
cations revealed that the operat
ing costs for 1933-34 will exceed
the revenue by over $1000. This
loss will be sustained by a bank
surplus which the board is en
deavoring to reduce through
heavier expenditures in the pub
lications. The deficit, however, is also
-explainable otherwise. The
board's action has been taken
with the idea of reducing the
income or increasing the publi
cation investment and their ef
forts have reduced the account
so that an approximate par
would ordinarily be established.
However, a reduction of income
due to the decrease in the stu
dent enrollment of 200 has de
prived the board of over $1000.

convictions and looking forward
to a future reward for remain
ing true to his ideals." The lib

principle applied to modern life.

Of Negro Questions.
Guy B. Johnson of the insti

day afternoon on the topic "Eth
He confined his talk almost en
tirely to the Negro in the com
munity.
Johnson opened his talk with
a few words on the function of
class feeling in the community.
The remainder of his remarks
consisted of a concise statement
of informational data on the
Negro race.
Ten Main Points

ten main points. He spoke on

distribution, and general im
provement of health.. He pass

home and land ownership, and

COLLEGE PRESSES
ARE NECESSIT
SAYS W. T. COUCH
In Address to Community Club,
Press Director Traces History
Of University Presses.
CULTURAL BOOKS NEEDED
W. T. Couch, director of the !
University of North Carolina
press, spoke before the Chapel
Hill Community club at a meet
ing in the Episcopal Parish
house yesterday afternoon on
"University Presses."
"The history of University
presses goes back to the begin
ning of printing in English,"
was the opening, thought in
Couch's address. "One of the
oldest if not the oldest-business
establishment with a fair
ly continuous history existing
today is the Oxford University
Press. The first book issued at
Oxford bears the date; 1468, al
though the real date is prob
ably 1478. Caxton's commercial
press at Westminister issued its
first book in 1477."
The content of the remainder
of his talk is contained in the
quotations following, . "Books
and magazines of all -kinds are
comparatively rare in r. this
region, and large classes of our
people college " graduates as
well as the technically unedu
cated not only do not have
books but do not have the ability
to read them even if they had,
Look' into the homes of most of
Our college graduates today and
see what you find in the way of
books and magazines and active
mental life. In most of them
you will find pleasant and easy
reading but nothing resembiing
intellectual activity."
"Whatever we say in the
south, we still act in accord with
Governor Berkely when he
thanked God that there were no
printing presses or schools to
disturb the peace. I would
shock the most recent and most
progressive south into forget
ting some of its contemporary
sociological jargon by publish
ing a popular set of the best po
litical thinkers of the old south,
who spoke clearly and forcefully
and intelligibly and with per
haps some truth that is worthy
of circulation today."
"A university press in this
region must stimulate generally
the reading and writing of seri
ous books on a scale both more
intensive and more extensive
than ever before."
