"Aha," said Haywood because he really had nothing better to do, "then it must have been an other law enforcement campaign being waged by the Chapel Hill police." . , So, said Haywood, he went to see Judge L. J. Phipps, who is 2 udge of the recorder's court here.

Washington, Jan. 8. (UP) A four-day-old 74th Congress, faced with finding work for 3,500,000 unemployed and other tremendous tasks, found itself with virtually nothing to do to day, so the House started airin vestigation. Roosevelt's practice of send ing only one piece of legislation at a time Caused the delay. With the first item on the schedule, a social security plan for enact ment, he is expected to transmit message on the subject late this week, putting the law mak ers to work in earnest. Discuss World Court While the Senate recessed, its foreign affairs committee met to discuss a resolution for Ameri can adherence to the World Court. The House, which expected to take up the $750,000,000 inde pendent office bill, the first de partmental appropriation mea sure of the session, was delayed by the fact that the appropria tions committee wasn't complet ed until today. Consequently, the House con fined itself to a one-hour session during which it launched the first investigation of the new Congress, an inquiry into the real estate bond holders protect ive committees. The House also received .sevfiralbills .'of resolu tion. The Senate is in recess until Thursday. Yale Professor Praises University O Dr. E. V. Meeks, Dean of Yale Characteristic of Our Buildings Lies in Harmony of Colors; Disappointed in Gothic Structures at Duke University. o - By J. E. POINDEXTER "I was greatly disappointed in the architectural effectiveness of Duke University because its Gothic buildings are not in har mony with its natural setting," said' Dr. E. V. Meeks, dean of the school of architecture' and director of the Yale art gallery. Dr. Meeks visited Chapel Hill Monday and lectured under the auspices of the Southern Art Society on "Trends in Modern Architecture." Asked if he favored any spe cial type of buildings for college constructions, Dr. Meeks de clared that he did not. "There is 'only one condition that I make " he remarked: "the build ings must have a native appro priateness. For example I should not like to see a Gothic cathedral standing in the midst of a pine forest. Such a setting calls for Georgian or some other style of building design native to the south." Harmony Dr. Meeks was unbounded in his enthusiasm for the sound ar chitectural qualities of the Uni versity buildings. He pointed out that the best characteristic of our buildings as a group lies in their pleasing harmony of color. He off ered as a cause of this condition the fact that local ly produced sand, clay, and stone were used in the construction of the older buildings, all of which blend in a variety of tawny shades. University Club To Circulate Petitions For New Bus Schedule EDITORIAL BOARD All men who have tried out for the editorial board of the Daily Tar Heel since the re organization and all members of the former board are asked to meet with Phil Hammer, editorial board chairman, this afternoon in Graham Memo rial at 3 o'clock. Trophy Committee Pool Names Pitt Head of Group to Collect Athletic Trophies. Jack Pool, president of the senior class, yesteraay an nounced the appointment of Billy Pitt as chairman of a tro phy committee; The action of the committee will consist of gathering all University athletic trophies and other awards, and arranging them in an attractive display in Graham Memorial. The collection will be made in hopes that it will lead to a permanent trophy room. Ac cording to Pool, at- present the awards are scattered all oyer the campus with no permanent dis play. The exhibit in Graham Memorial will be the first time that all the trophies have been displayed together. Winter Quarter Fees Students whose names begin with N through P are scheduled to pay or, mak arrangements for paying their winter quarter student fees today at the busi ness office. Architecture ; School of Architecture, Says Best The Yale professor, pictur esque with his neatly cut black beard, continued, "Your genera architectural scheme, although developed spontaneously, shows real and distinctive character. Indicating austerity and sim plicity, it fits perfectly into the traditional architectural devel opment of the south." Jeffersonian Trend He declared that the architec tural trend of the campus dates from about 1830. It owes its origin to Thomas Jefferson and other amateur architects of the period, who based their designs on classical lines. The Play makers theatre tvith its Jeffer- soman corn capitals ana sim plicity of line is the best local example of this trend. Someone laughed and asked Dr. Meeks to criticize the Morehead-Patterson tower. The laugh turned to a dry grin when Dr. Meeks replied, "It's very good, I think. Of course, it's built on a small scale; if it were a third larger it would be bet ter." "What about the fool's cap on tne top?" he was asked. "That's aU right, too," continued Dr. Meeks. "The trouble with you fellows is that you are too close to the University to criti cize it fairly. You can rest, as sured that your bell tower is better than the majority of such structures." Most of Dr. Meeks' criticism was directed at the library. Continued on pagt two) Organization Adopts New Sales Campaign Group Arranges Schedule for Welcoming Visiting Athletic Teams During Quarter. Forty petitions were distrib uted to University Club men, representing every campus dor mitory and fraternity, yester day afternoon to be circulated for the signatures of all students interested in the establishment of a new bus line by the Atlan tic Greyhound Lines through Chapel Hill. The petitions will be collected next Tuesday and forwarded to the North Carolina Utilities Commission, which body will hold a hearing January 22 on the Greyhound line's proposal for a new route from Greensboro to Raleigh via Chapel HilL If the commission grants a certificate of operation, the new service will begin immediately. Speedier Transportation The new bus service will pro vide a much speedier trip to both of the main points and connect ing centers on either end of the new line. The Greensboro Raleigh route is the only un linked distance of any impor tance in the Atlantic Grey hound's southern system, and if the privilege of connection is granted, will afford direct con nections for all parts of the country. '" As proposed, four buses will be v east--and -west-bound daily, the rates being considerably cheaper than those now charged and the trips negotiated in much less time. Students are especially re quested by the student commit tee in charge of the petition- signing to avoid duplication of signatures or fictitious names. Other business of the Univer sity Club meeting yesterday, after petitions had been distrib uted, included the arrangement of the club schedule for visiting team welcomes during the win ter quarter and the adoption of a sales campaign presented by Agnew Bahnson.
