MacNider to mem bership at its meeting Tuesday night. A great debate raged in the senate before the actual induc tion took place as to whether Dr. MacNider should be-required io make nis maiden speech in the hall before or after he had been accepted as a full fledged senator. It was finally decided to havp Vi3 rvvr.TiH-,A qtiphV tytp- ;viou to his takini of the oath of office.

Dr. Graham began his remarks by delving into, the past of a few of the men whose pictures line the walls of the senate chamber. He told of the , days when liberalism on the campus was in its growing stage .mentioning in particular an in cident which occured in con nection with a commencement banquet held by the senate in the 'old days. At that time, according to Dr. i Graham, the University was not at all troubled by those who objected to having teachers in the school and visiting speakers who were socialists or who had political beliefs radically differ ent from those of the population of the state. The great fight at that time was a campus affair on the matter as to whether a republican would be invited to deliver the main address at the (Continued on page two) ildegarde line eland, Star Witness In Senate Investigation, Visits Hill Woman Accused by Wirt of Being Revolution" Refuses to Comment on Charges; in Chapel Hill To Confer with Odum in Connection with Research.

Miss Kneeland, discovered dimns at the Carolina Inn, talk- I ed freely about her work and her reason for being in Chapel Hill, but repeatedly ignored questions revolving about Dr. Wirt's charges. She said her purpose in being here was to talk to Dr. Howard Odum in connection with her research work on "consumer's expendi tures" which she is doing for the department of agriculture. "I found I would not be call ed as a witness until Thursday, FRESHMEN MUST PASS 5 COURSES Upperclassmen Must Complete Seven Courses During Year for Readmittance;. Expulsion Is Penalty for Non-Completion. Freshmen must have success fully parsed at least five courses by the end of this spring quar ter to stay -in the University, first-year men are reminded by a statement issued yesterday by Dr A- w-.Hobbs dean of the Upperclassmen must pass two courses a quarter or seven dur ing the 1933-34 school year. "Freshmen must pass at least two courses m the first two larters, and at least five i x j i 1 courses in tne nrst tnree quar ters," according to the Univer sity catalog. "After the fresh man year (three quarters) a student must pass at least one - t i n course eacn quarter, iour courses in two successive quar ters, and seven courses in three successive quarters." Penalty Is Expulsion The penalty lor not passing the required number of units is expulsion from the University. Deficiencies may be made up correspondence work or by summer school. In case work made up by Work m the sum- mer or by corresponaence, oniy credits exceeding one course credit so obtained shall count for readmission to the Univer sity. If a freshman is making up deficiencies by , correspondence or summer school, he must therefore pass six courses in the first ' three quarters. Upper classmen must, when making up failed, credits, finish eight units in three quarters. If a student fails to qualify to the above requirements, he may be readmitted only by vote of a sDecial .faculty committee which meets three times a school year to consider written peti tions of students who have defi nite reasons for entering again.

Miss Kneeland has recently figured prominently in the charges brought against the Roosevelt Brain Trust on the grounds of plotting to over throw the government. Several subversive, remarks were at tributed to her by Dr. Wirt in the cross-questioning by the senate committee Tuesday, re marks which Miss Kneeland flatly denied. In response to a statement by Wirt that Miss Kneeland and "her group" (department of agriculture) recognized the leadership of Dr. Tugwell, who was named by Wirt as the lead er of the revolution, Miss Knee- iana claimed sne did not even know Tugwell. She has also been accused by Wirt of saying "we believe we have Mr. Roose velt in the middle of a swift (Continued on page two) Audit Board Action Increases Efficiency , HSH At a meeting of the Student Audit board yesterday afternoon definite decision was made to bond responsible officers under the board, in all probability the auditor and bookkeeper. Under the set-up the audit ing and bookkeeping together will cost' approximately two- tenths of one per cent of the total amount of money handled by the board. Accurate checking of bills and increased accuracy have been made possible because all the ac counts of the various organiza tions under the board have been lumped together into one single account. This action has brought about a savings to all the organizations under the board to an amount consider ably more than the total cost of bookkeeping and auditing.
