WOLF GATHERING
SURVEY REPORTS
Records Will Be Basis in For
mulating Unemployment
Insurance Bill.
Employing six research work
ers and a statistician, Dr. Har
ry D. Wolf of the University
school of commerce has begun,
as executive chairman of the
State Unemployment Insurance
uommission. tne tasic oi as
sembling reports on a survey of
the jobless in this state that he
has been directing since last
August. -
When the data is complete, it
will be presented, together with
a bill providing a system of
unemployment insurance, to the
forthcoming General Assembly
General Fund
The bill to be presented is ex
pected to specify periodical pay
ments by botn employers and
employees into a general fund
to be used to aid the workers in
time of unemployment.
Such a bill was introduced at
the 1933 session of the Legisla
ture by Senator W. O. Burgin of
Lexington, but it was deferred
when Governor Ehringhaus ap
pointed the commission on
which Dr. Wolf is now. serving.
Dr. Wolf will remain in
Chapel Hill until the completion
of the report. He outlined the
forthcoming legislation in an
address to the North Carolina
Club December 11. .
Sluggish German Intellectuals
Give Prof usely
The "World Topics in German
Four Class," an eight-thirty as
sembly, conducted by Dr. E. C.
Metzenthin, voted the other
morning to appropriate , a sum
of not. less than $4.00 from its
treasury for the purpose of aid
ing ex-assemblyman Phillips
Russell in his trip to GeneVa.
The class, . suddenly realizing
that Russell's namethad been
dropped from the roll and know
ing the value of Russell's pro
foundly intellectual contribu
tions to the world political dis
cussions carried on at its meet
ings, willingly voted that its
coffers be emptied by at least
$4.00 for his cause.
Burdened Souls
The assembly is composed of
a group of students whose very
souls are burdened with every
international problem. For
months they have chewed the
anti-war rag with vigor; always,
of course, Russell led the chew
ing. From Russell's head there
XT.1AS SEAL DRIVE
NOWMPROGR
Mes dames W. R. BerryhiH and
A. S. Jordan Head Campaign;
Proceeds Go. to Students
The annual drive for the sale
of Christmas seals- in Chapel
Hill is now underway under the
direction of Mrs. W. R. Berry
hill and Mrs. A. S. Jordan, pub-
icity director.
This year the receipts from
the local sale will be used to cre
ate a fund for use of . Univer
sity students afflicted "with or
having symptoms of tuber cu-
losis.- Themone.v can h used
to pay for X-ray treatments for
students unable to raise the
.f' '
also for sanitorium treatment of
financially-incompetent students
found to be tubercular.
Downtown Booths
Booths. for the sale of the seals
will be placed at the post office
and at other convenient spaces
down town. Fraternities will
respond to the campaign through
their own representatives and
dormitories are being canvassed
by Y. M. C. A. members.
Heretofore the proceeds from I
the sale have gone to the Chapel
Hill township.
The creation of the student 1
fund will take care of students
in the future, similar to 15 such
cases this year, who are unable!
to get proper medical attention.
Mrs. Jordan stated recently
that there are between 50 and!
60 active cases of -tuberculosis
in the. community. These will
be affected through town seal
sales, a record being kept during
the campaign of receipts from
students and townspeople as
separate contributing units.
Part of the money received
goes to the expense of the na-
tional tubercular relief organi-
zation and to the state sanitori-
um. Seventy-five per cent of
tefl-hm goes to the
Bull's Head Open
. The Bull's Head bookshop in
the Y. M. C. A. building will re-
main open during the holidays,
announced Elizabeth Johnson,
director of the bookshop.
Miss Johnson stated that she
would beT at the shop "between
sleeps, between eats and between
a few other necessary periods
of recreation."
To Fiery Cause
continuously popped words of
extraordinarily pearly textures.
bo pearly that at times tney
even outshown those of Dr. Met-
zenthin but rarely.
For the last 12 assemblies the
W.T.I.G.F.C. has been extreme
ly sluggish - in action. Many
members for lack of topics re
sorted to ruminating on bits of
gum. Even the Herr Professor
became less ardent in his pur
suit oi argument, rrom a cen
ter of intellectual fire the class
suddenly sank into a crater of
Germanic darkness.
This .condition so vexed the
Herr Doktor that he looked
about for reasons. Thus it was
that recently he explained to
the assembly that the absence of
Russell was the sole cause of the
sudden change in things. It was
thought that Russell had just
given out of fire. "So," said J
the Herr Professor, "We must'
spfid him to Geneva fnr new
coals." .

DOCTOR HEDGPETH
SPEAKS ON COLDS
infirmary Official Discusses Pre-
Tentative Measures for
Common Ailments.
I Dr. E. M. Hedgpeth of the
University infirmary concluded
his series of lectures on health
and hygiene at freshman chapel
yesterday morning
Calling attention to the pos
sibility of exposure at this time
of year, Dr. Hedgpeth asserted
that chills were a presupposing
factor in colds. Warning
against leaving gym in a sweat
w j t h 0 u t adequate protection
against the- wintry weather,
he-asked the freshmen "not to
turn on the cold water immedi-
ately on taking a shower, but to
taper it on slowly."
Athlete's Foot
The infirmary physician told,
in connection with a discussion
on the so-called athlete's foot,
that the infirmary was . now
working on preventive measures
to be placed in the shower
rooms.
Condemning the popular mea-
sure against cold at night by
closing the windows m the room,
Dr. Hedgpeth claimed that the
more oxygen that circulated
throughout the room the great-
er was physical and mental
alertness.
Dean Bradshaw announced
that there would be no freshman

JEALOUS DORM
ATTACKS LEWIS
The offer of Bing Crosby to
present Lewis dormitory with a
fully equipped ping pong table
in the event that Alabama's
Crimson Tide makes Stanford
see' stars, has brought forth
signs of revengeful jealousy.
A groifp of boys from a neigh
boring quadrangle surrounded
the dormitory and began the
siege. Rocks, milk bottles, and
all available debris was hurled
in the direction of the windows,
which crashed in many places.
Hie residents of the rooms af
fected by the crashes rushed
out and put the vandals to
flight.
Caught!
One of the more daring occu
pants of the stricken dormitory
followed the attackers and soon
returned to the dorm claiming
that he saw said-rivals entering
Mangum. The police were then
notified and rushed over to
Lewis' neighbor. One of the
boys involved in the mischief
walked out of Mangum and as
he broke into a run was caught
by an officer. He claimed to
have been at the dorm store dur
ing the time of the siege, but the
finding of rocks in his pocket
quickly convinced the officer to
the contrary.
Peace apparently reigns su
preme in the trouble area.
The total amount of the dam
age was five windows and
broken sign. The windows have
been replaced but the sign re
mains down. Lewis dormitory
residents are now having heat
ed discussions as to whether
"Lewis" should once again
adorn their residence or whether
instead "Crosby" should be
substituted.
HAYES AND FERA
CLASSIFY MAXIMS
Students Working under FERA
Funds and Supervised by
Spanish Professor.
Through FERA funds, sev
eral boys, under the direction
of F. C. Hayes of the Spanish
department, are making a file
of Spanish proverbs.
Approximately 32,000 . pro
verbs have already been fileci
out of a total of about 80,000
Historical Dictionary
The ultimate end of this work
is to compile an historical die
tionary of Spanish proverbs.
In one of the books of Spanish
proverbs used in making this
collection, 14 pages deal with
God : 8 naees on friendship : 5
pages on love; 3 pages on death;
5 pages on evil; 11 xpages on
man: and 17 nasres deal with
women. .
Proverbs, Mr. Hayes pointed
out, are practically the same
everywhere. As an illustration,
he quoted, "A bird in the hand
is worth two in the bush." The
Spanish version of this is, "A
bird in the hand is worth more
than 100 buzzards flying.'
into effect September, 1935, is
intended, according to Dean R.
B. House, "to co-ordinate kindred
subjects and departments for
the general good of the Univer
sity and the students."
Instruction will be organized
under the new system to carry
out this intention as far as pos
sible; but the plan, says Dean
House, "aims at the same time
at full freedom for special and
individual programs of study."
Special Courses
Certain special courses, such
as pharmacy, engineering, pre-
medical and pre-dental work in
applied science, and B.S. courses
in chemistry and geology, neces
sarily have programs which do
not fit in with this plan. Ad
justments will be made to meet
this situation.
There will be no change in the
administrative set-up under the
new system.
From the faculties of the four
divisions President Graham will
select councils which will do
most of the actual work of for
mulating the programs of study.
These councils will advise with
the various constituent depart
ments of the divisions and will
be open to suggestions from in
dividual students as to the
courses of study they - wish to
pursue.,
"6-6-6 Plan"
Each student will follow in
his last two years what is known
as the "6-6-6 Plan." He will take
six courses in his- major, six,
