CITY EDITOR FOR THIS ISSUE : WALTER HARGETT Saturday, April 28. 1934 With an Eye ' ' For Discrimination We are indebted to the Chapel Hill Weekly for what turns out to be an interesting, if not entirely original, observation on a current chanere which should concenrevery thinking person. The editorial referred to the' and remarked that the fact that it remains to most of us an abstraction prevents an interest in it on the part of the public which should be forthcoming. ' ... All this ties in very nicely with a number of events that have happened on the campus in the past two weeks. , As the Weekly points out. our public bowls itself hoarse over personalities witness, the past elections, or for a more violent example, last year's elections.; but is silent on ,an Issue which is of .more. immediate Importance compare this i with . the recent poll taken' to ap prove the centralization of student government. Not that it means pulling the wool over anybody's eyes r the ' proposal approved, we understand, means very, little, change, over the former status of the Student council, and the vote was merely a ratification of what was already in effect. .out me iacc tnat only ten per cent of the stu t dent body turned but to vote on the measure of centralization, while almost 75 per cent troop dow?i to the polls when a few harassed individuals ars to . receive the ithumbs-down or thumbs-up according to their wishes, shows the difficulty of catching the eye of any crowd with an abstrac tion. ., - j -. . - , . . . So far, all this as merely comment. As things and human nature stand, nothing can be done aDOUt it, although the lack of interest fiisnlnvpH is regrettable. . For we are heartily in favor of seeino- thp ni 4 T J 1 " J , . otuueuu oouy cuck a discriminating eye at any thing that concerns its student government. which, is now, after centralization has been put in black and white and aDDroved -one nf tho nc potent in the country. And because it is, we have a right to expect both that the Student council will realize its responsibility arid that me stuaent body will realize its obligation in the matter of referendum to make known its will. 3.50 each ; the total cost of equipping Memorial hall with such seats would be $15,810. There is no doubt that the defect of the hall should be - repaired. -At the present time, it is impossible for the University to: finance the in. stallation of jiew seats . Where, then, would the money for the work come from? ' .' The gift committee of the senior class, which will shortly be called on to decide upon some gift for coming student generations to remember the present senior class' by, might well lookinto the matter of new seats for the building. Of course, the class cannot give the entire amount needed, but it could give a sufficient amount to start a fund, on the basis of which appeals for more money could be made to students and alumni. And certainly future audiences in Memorial hall I would remember with thanks the class of 1934. T.H.W. APRILS 1 institutions of the country today,!

To the outgoing members of the University club we give a salute. Under capable guidance and with a zest and enthusiasm that has been -arely paralleled in the annals of University his tory, the group has developed from a straggling and disunited gathering of students representing every corner of the campus into a well-knit, pow erful organization. It has blazed new trails, has rekindled the ebbing Carolina spirit and has willingly accomplished worth-while , activities that a year ago were considered impossible. It may all sound like too much flourish for a club which has been in existence for but one year, but it is necessary to stress the importance of carrying on to tne new members . and" officers; They must realize that the University club fills a vital need on the campus. They must endeavor to continue and increase the good work. They must feel that they, as the most representative set on the Hill, are looked to for definite and im portant functions that demand sacrifices on their own part. . . ' ' ' '. ' With a heavy sports calendar involving many visits by competing teams remaining, with a new class of freshmen upon whom a lot depends com-; irig here next fall, with the Institute on Human Relations, a quadrennial conference, scheduled; for next winter, the University club can look for ward to a busy year. The campus is behind them in their work and the administration, t realizing the importance of their vitality and their ideals of spirit, is ready vto lend its cooperation. To them is dedicated the. job :of keeping fresh thei wouiuuua cum spmi-ut Carolina, may. they do well.

Graham Memorial is the Student Union, and nothing is more natural or fitting than that a stuJ dent whose executive ability, willingness to co operate, friendliness and ponularitv have bee well proven in a trying year as president of the student body be selected to direct its affairs. Graham Memorial has, under its present direc tor, come to play a more and more imnnrtanih rnlp in student affairs, and come to have more and more significance in student life. It is the focal point of all the extra-curricular activities on the campus, and the position of the directorship is pe that will bring its incumbent many respon sibilities. On the basis of his nrevious reonrH it is our belief that Harper Barnes is man enough for the job. And it is our hope that Harper may even better the excellent record of his predeces sor in making Graham Memorial at once the play-house and the work-shop of the campus.

The poor acoustics of Memorial hall, home of the largest stage on the campus, has of ten dur ing this year been brought to the attention of the student body and the University administra tion, but so far no step to remedy the situation 'has been taken; and apparently none ever will. In the case of some of the entertainments which have been staged in the building this year,' no great. amount of harm has resulted from the poof acoustics; but in more instances than not, the inability of the audience to hear what was being said on the stage has spoiled shows and meant a waste of time and money. Ihis question has been raised: Are the archi tects and engineers who designed and erected the structure at fault ? 'The answer to this query has been given by H. D. Carter, Chapel Hill architect, in a letter to this paper. According to Mr. Carter, the plans of the building, before work was begun, were submit ted to a leading firm of acoustical engineers, and the.instructions sent were carefully followed A report from the company, says Mr. Carter, states that the acoustics will be perfect when cloth backed chairs similar to those in Hill MusiV hi have been installed. The cost of such chairs is W it h Contemporaries bxxxo uicooogc 11 Jlll LilC L Willi t: , , Princetonian: "This certainly tne resPonsibility for, promoting: is a vacation spot in the swell- and developing a program.

Enrollment of American students in English schools has nearly tripled in the last several years,, according to the an nouncement.
