The principle object of this committee is to fathom student opinion on the subject and to attempt to have more emphasis placed on pure entertainment in the programs than upon cultural advance ment. A motion was passed to have executive committee meetings every other Wednesday instead of every Wednesday as has been the practice since its organiza tion. JThe first part of the meeting was devoted to the taking of pictures f or- the Yackety Yack. CHIMES RINGERS ORGANIZE GUILD Walter Patterson Asks for Ap prentices with Fundamental Musical Knowledge.

SAUNDERS TALKS TO SOPHOMORES Ml I II 'X Alumni Secretary Tells Second- Year Class of Meaning of Alumni Connections. Maryon saunders, secretary of the alumni association, yester day spoke to the , sophomores at their weekly assembly in Ger- rard hall. He concerned himself mainly with the topic "What it means to be an alumnus." Many alumni use their time when they graduate to live in the past arid talk about their good times at Chapel Hill, ac cording to Saunders, but there are many who are really inter ested in the present and future of the University. They try to help the University and often offer helpful criticism, and they recognize it as-a tool for build ing better citizens for a better government and state. Alumnus Can Help According to Saunders, there are two things an alumnus can do for the University: first, be a good citizen (this is the first responsibility of a former stu dent) , and second, to continue his interest in the University. He must realize that this state has established its educational system for the perpetuation of democracy. "The work of the alumni as sociation is based on local clubs and the organized classes," said Saunders. "As a class the alum ni will carry forward their so cial contacts made here, and so keep in touch with one another and facilitate their Work in aid ing the University." Saunders closed his talk by asking the sophomores to speak to prospective students this spring and to help alumni in bringing new students here.

Chase Speaks on Leadership. "The leadership shown by col lege men during the depression has compared unfavorably with their leadership during the World War," stated Chancellor Harry Woodburn Chase of New York University, former presi dent of the University of North Carolina, last week to alumni of Dartmouth College at a dinner at the Hotel Plaza. time of the great war," added Chase, "that the college grad uates as a class possessed qual ities of leadership, the ability to handle men, and the willing ness to make personal sacrifices in their devotion to a cause. "In the present situation which has confronted the Unit ed States for the past few years there have been many evidences of fine leadership in government, in finance, and in business, on the part of college men ; but, on the whole, I have questioned whether the leadership of the college man in this emergency has been quite as adequate as in the emergency fifteen years ago." rm. .f J A, 2.1 - xixe lurmer presiueiiu ui tnc University also advocated the formation of public opinion against any attempt to capture the colleges and universities for political ends. Citing how universities in Germany had been practically destroyed by the government's attempting to capture the minds of youths for political ends, Chase drew a lesson for this country to benefit by. The dinner, at which the Uni versity's former liead spoke, was in honor of Dean Craven Lay cock of Dartmouth, who will re tire in June after 37 years of service to education.
