ANDREWS SHOWS
ATOMS IN MOTION
BY MODEL FORMS
Johns Hopkins Professor Talks
on Molecular Action, Spon
sored by Sigma Xi,
AUDIENCE ENTHUSIASTIC
Dr. Donald H. Andrews, the
'.noted Johns Hopkins professor of
chemistry, delivered his some
what technical lecture on "Mole
cular Models" , to an enthusias
tic and interested audience last
night under the auspices of the
North Carolina chapter of Sigma
XI
As an introduction to the talk
the professor gave a short his
tory of the molecule from the
early conception- of the Greeks
. -which bears striking similarity
to the theory advanced by our
modern scientists.
Demonstrates Structure
By mechanical constructions
of various chemical compounds
Dr. Andrews demonstrated the
nature of the different forces
between the atoms of a molecule
.and the structure of different
chemical compounds.
With the aid of lantern slides
of the motion and spectra of
chemical compounds Dr. An
drews pointed out that the force
of attraction between the atoms
of molecules is proportional to
the number of chemical bonds
between atoms.
By using a demonstration ma
chine the Johns Hopkins profes
sor produced the actual motions
that molecules undergo under
the influence of forces of difT
ferent frequencies. Pictures of
the motions of atoms were more
clearly shown by slides.
Dr. Andrews will deliver an
ether lecture tonight at Duke
University as the guest of Pro
fessor Paul Gross.

NEGRO OUTLINES
IDS RAM WORK
Freshman Council Hears Talk by
Professor Taylor of Durham
College for Negroes.
As a preparation for the phase
of the coming Human Relations
Institute dealing with inter-ra
cial and class relations, the
members of the Freshman
Frendship Council heard Profes
sor J. T. Taylor of the North
Carolina College for Negroes at
Durham, who talked to them last
night on "The Achievements of
the Negro Race."
Professor Taylor later deliv
ered the same address to the
smoker of the sophomore and
iunior-senior "Y" cabinets in
Graham Memorial.
"If you are really going in for
a practical application of your
idealism, you are picking a hard
road to travel," said Professor
Taylor preliminary to his main
address. "You can get along
very easily without worrying
about our problem, but I can't
conceive of anyone who could do
this and still have complete hap
piness."
Negro's Achievements
The speaker cited some use
ful achievements of the colored
race in Africa and later in other
countries of the world. He dealt
largely, however, with the work
of the Negro in America, "their
adopted country."
Discussing the cultural de
velopment and general improve
ment of the Negro race, Taylor
gave some enlightening stasis
tics pertinent to education and
to the Negro's place in the Unit
ed States. He offered the fact
that 89 Negroes were listed in
Who's Who and that 116 were
Phi Beta Kappa initiates.
Professor Taylor mentioned
many illustrious Negro musi
cians, novelists, and poets, read
ing several poems.
Before concluding, Professor
Taylor mentioned George Hor
ton, a janitor at the University
back in the '40 who used to
compose love lyrics for the stu
dents and finally decided to get
an education as best he could.
This meeting marked the close
of the Council's meetings;f or the
winter quarter.

Tau Beta Pi, honorary engi
neering fraternity, will meet a

by the present Student Council
from the time it assumed office
in May, 1934, to February 1 of
this year, according to a report
rendered yesterday by Francis
Fairley, secretary and junior
representative.

of suspension unrevoked by
subsequent action of the Coun
cil, t

opened and re-heard, four were
bad check cases, 12 concerned
violation of the campus code,
and 12 were trials for breaches
of the honor system.

plagiarism; (4) credit for quar
ter's work denied, "F" on
course; (5) suspension for
cheating and lying to the Coun
cil; and (6 )"F" on course, Stu
dent Council probation.

publication that led to its aboli
tion and the establishment of the
Finjan.
List of Cases
. The list of cases follows :
Campus code violation :Nine
for dormitory disturbance, six of
which carried penalty of general
conduct probation and three
dormitory probation; three for

lack of evidence; three for ly
ing, one of which carried Stu
dent Council probation and two
acquittal; six for cheating.
Cases re-opened: In three of

quarter's work previously denied
him; the remaining case was
granted re-admission but was
put on general conduct proba
tion.
Bad check cases: one, Student
fcouncil probation ; one, denied
credit for work; two, made to
pay debts incurred.
The Council reviewed briefly
in the report its work during
freshman week when it spon
sored lectures on the honor sys
tem. The report stated that it
conceived of its duties as of a
"corrective rather than punitive
nature in so far as' possible."

senior executives for the win
ter quarter will be held in the
Y. M. C. A. tonight at 7
o'clock, Class President Jack
Pool announced yesterday.

year, Pool said. Plans per
taining to senior week and
other class activities will be
discussed. Pool urged all
senior executives to attend.
University Club to Get
Rooms for Visitors
Dorms and Fraternities Are
Urged to Place Track Men.
The University Club is still
campaigning to find places on
he campus for all visiting track
men who will be here this week
end for the annual Southern
Conference indoor track meet.
Thus far, most of the visitors
have been placed by the club
members. However, more places
are still needed.
The buildings department will
put an extra bed in every dormi
tory room in which the occu
pants would like to take care of
a visiting track man. Students
wishing to help are asked to get
in touch with Frank Willingham
at 'the S. A. E. house or "Bo"
Shepard in the athletic office as
soon as possible.
The visitors will spend two
nights here in most cases, Fri
day and Saturday. Meals, of
course, will be furnished at the
regular training tables by the
University.
HOUSE CONCLUDES
SERIES OF TALKS
Dean Speaks on "Desire" in
Message to Freshmen.
Concluding his series, of talks
on the "Intellectual Life," Dean
R. B. House talked to the fresh
man assembly yesterday on "De-
sire.
Before dealing with his last
subject, Dean House gave a brief
summary of his previous ad
dresses. He reminded the fresh
men of the value of building
strong characters, the necessity
of hard work, and the use of the
imagination as a forerunner of
constructive thought.
"Desire," stated Dean House,
"is the one thing which domi
nates a man's life and gives him
a sense of direction." Stressing
the importance of understand
ing one's own desire, "one's
philosophy of spirit," he recom
mended a study of the philoso
phies of other men, advising
that it is not too early to start
such a study.
"Your university career rests
with you," concluded Dean
House. "Always remember that
anything of worth that has ever
been done required conscientious
effort."
Herr Metzenthin Bombards Students
With Good-Natured Sarcastic Wit
Squeak, squeak, here comes
the professor's brogans. Duck
your cigarette or be greeted with
"You, you sir, you smoke like a
smoke stack!" "
"Guten Tag, meine Damen
und Herren" at least that is
what it sounds like. A chorus
of "Guten Tag, Herr Professor"
echoes back. "Hey, you crazy
fellow, march as fast as you can
to your seat," commands Herr
Doktor Pastor Prof essor Metzen
thin. Quietness prevails until some
late straggler comes quietly into
the door and pauses and greets
the professor in a cordial but
pathetic tone with the same
words every time, "Good morn
ing, Herr Professor. It gives
me great pain to disturb" in
German, of course.
He's a Married Man
Deathlike silence reigns until
the regular morning program
begins with verbs. A girl re
sponds before being called upon
explanation: Herr Spann's

BUS LINE HEARING
POSTPONED AGAIN
s
Greyhound's Petition to Be Con-
. sidered March 18 or 20.
The Atlantic Greyhound Lines'
hearing before Public Utilities
Commissioner Winburne, sched
uled for today, has been post
poned until March 18 or 20, ac
cording to a letter received yes
terday by Phil Hammer, chair
man of the student committee
which has been co-operating
with the bus -company, from J.
L. Gilmer, vice-president and
general sales manager of the
company.
This makes the second time
that the hearing has been puti
off-. It was first postponed from
January 22 until today because
of the illness of a member of the
commission. '
The reason for the latest de
lay is that one of the interested
attorneys has a case in court
which cannot-be continued.
This will throw the hearing
into the holiday period, so that
the mass student attendance
planned for the hearing by the
University Club will be made
harder of attainment. Despite
this additional difficulty, how
ever, the club wrll make an ef
fort to have a number of stu
dents present.
