president until 1931, when she
left Maysville. She served as
chairman of the woman's divis

As a young woman, Mrs. Jen

first principal of the Maysville

to direct the annual high school

received. This amount was
offered as an incentive to get
the officials to meet on time.

men of the town, she led raids

though she led the raids herself,

NOMINATION BILL
DEFEATED BY PHI
Phi Wants Publications Staffs to
Have Official Nominees.
The Phi Assembly at its meet
ing last night did not discuss the
four bills on the calendar. The
bill, Resolved: That staff nomi
nations on the publications be
abolished, was defeated. Rep
resentatives Garis and Winslow
led the discussion.
"The Phi does not now occupy
the place it formerly did in cam
pus life," said Representative
Jones. For the return to the
high condition of yore, Jones
advocated three things: faculty
guest speakers, class announce
ments, and better topics and
preparation. "The high school
debate between Thomasville and
Gastonia was far better coordi
nated than any of the University
debates that I have heard this
year," said Jones.
Attention of the assembly
members was called to the fact
that the Phi pins have arrived

and that the notes are now due.in Bingham hall auditorium.
This Morning
ci
ONLY TEN POSTS
TO BE VOTED ON
Four Campus-Wide and Seven
Class Onices Contested; Of
ficers of Woman's Association
to Be Elected.
With indications for a com
paratively light vote but for
rather heavy poll-campaigning,
students will turn out at the
polls in Graham Memorial today
to ballot on nominees for four
campus-wide and six class of
fices. The polls will - open at
9:00 oclock this morning, and
will close at 5 :00 o'clock in the
afternoon.
The small number of con
tests is due to the fact that 23
of the nominees for the 33 po
sitions went into office without
opposition at nomination meet
ings held last week.
General Offices
Nominees for the following
campus-wide positions are :
president of the student body,
Virgil Weathers and B. C. Proc
tor; editor of the Daily Tar
Heel, Lonnie Dill and Carl
Thompson; editor of the Caro
lina Magazine, Joe Sugarman
and Virgil J. Lee, Jr.; and sec
retary of the Y. M. C. A.. Phil
Hammer and Butler French.
Probably the closest fights in
the elections will come in . the
contests for the publications ed
itorships. Campaigning in
these divisions has been more
vigorous than that in any of the
other races.
Class Elections
Class offices and the nominees
are as follows: senior class
president, Jack Pool and Leo
Manley; treasurer, K. W.
Young and Paul Kaveny.
Junior class: vice-president,
