The government's high silver policy ought to cut down on the number of men born with silver spoons in their mouths. Di and Phi . Of the Future . The high, schoolers began their annual activ ity at Chapel Hill yesterday when the debaters foughtr each other from the platform in quest of the Aycock cup and the tenniseers batted the ball areund in order to determine the best net players in the state high schools. This annual pilgrimage means much to the stu dents and to the University. Behind the novelty of gathering together in the beautiful setting of Chapel Hill there is much serious zest for im provement and education on the part of the younger of our cohorts in the pursuit of knowl edge. That they might gather, together in a common purpose to debate and to play may Tiave some significance other than the face value of the competition, in that in college and thereafter the same competitive forces, under somewhat less ideal conditions, will prevail in the contin uance of life's struggle. It is rather ironic, from our point of view, that over 20(X debaters come to Chapel Hill for their competition, to Chapel Hill where students care little for debating, on the whole. The .signifi cance lies in the question : what is there about the University or its debating activities that makes for this shying away from declamation on the part of the students? The question can well be left unanswered until later, but it at least presents an interesting phase of the Uni versity's elf ort annually to gather high schoolers in the common interest in. an activity which in Chapel Hill holds little favor. , Aside from this digression, we make' our wel come to the high school students and wish them continued success in their efforts to effect a well rounded education by including the essentials of debating and athletics into the curriculum. The Old Gives Way to the New New members of the University Club, includ ing a handful of co-eds, met with the outgoing clubbers last night to get a "pre-view" of t ' program of this organization. " rrn j t i j i i i j 111 inese recentiy-eiectea siuaems wm nave a young but powerful tradition to uphold in their work during the coming year. Although one of the youngest of campus organizations, the Uni versity Club, filling a definite need, has increas ingly become more important on this campus and the results of its efforts are showing them selves in many ways. ., "For the University" is the motto which the new members must carry on. In bettering inter school relations, in -promoting good sportsman ship and University loyalty, in carrying out mul . titudinous functions connected with undergrad uate spirit, this club has become firmly imbedded as an immense undergraduate influence. Jobs for the f v - ' - -V v College Graduate Fqr many years business has recognized the advantage of taking college graduates with background and training them up to positions of responsibility. During the earlier years of the present' economic depression there was a general curtailment of this policy just as there was a general curtailment of employment. However, sixty-three seniors and graduates were interviewed here recently by representa tives of the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company for the purpose of selecting a number out of these to be trained for employment. Without pointing out that this is any tangible evidence of return of prosperity, we think that this should at least be an encouraging sign to many college 'students who have nothing in sight but graduation. Dean House might use the actions of the TVA and the Goodyear Company in employing college 'graduates as examples of the positive side of his query, "Why go to' college?" Since a great num ber of students today refuse to recognize the intrinsic worth of a liberal education, they may reconcile' themselves by seeing their effort ma terialize in a job which would not have been available without their college training and ex perience. - s - - ' - At the End Of His Rope Herr Hitler, in a very few years, has done far more toward bringing Germany back to its pre-. war status than even Kaiser Bill could have hoped for in his most f atherlandistic dreams. He has proved the Treaty of Versailles to be a mere scrap of parchment and brought arms back to the men of Germany, but what next? . All that has been gained is likely to remain permanent. . However it must be remembered that thus far the Allies have taken no forceful action because nothing that Hitler has done to date has been quite worth fighting about. The next logical step, the reclaiming of the lost Ger- man territories and colonies, will not be so easy. You can tear up treaties and build heavy guns without causing war, but you can't march your troops into foreign territory (even if it was once yours) without something happening. ; Even if the Stresa conference between Italy, France, and Great Britain had failed in a definite understand ing, Germany would still have been forced to consider the recently formed agreement between France and Russia. And the anti-German party can always rely upon Italy and probably Great Britain. The result the encircling of the Reich by a well-sharpened ring of unfriendly; bayonets. Hitler has two alternatives : to be satisfied with what he has; accomplished; or to try for more with the risk of crushing defeat and prob able dismemberment. He has accomplished much in a short time by force, but the Republic might have accomplished more in the end by the peace ful diplomacy it was using. , r Peace by , 1 Understanding Secretary of State Cordell Hull recently in formed the nations of the world that the solution to their political and military problems did not lie in political negotiations, as exemplified by Sir John Simon's recent visit to Hitlerland, but rather in the adoption of "a sound and compre hensive economic program, both domestic and international, and carrying it forward." At one of the many seminars of the recent Human Relations Institute we heard a prominent German authority on world trade and interna tional commerce make the statement that al though harmony in international trade and com merce was quite important to world peace it did not play the important part assigned to it. The House of Representatives has just passed the McSwain bill taking the profits out of war, and supposedly removing all possibility of enter ing any but a defensive war, caused by invasion of our coasts or borders. Here we have three divergent opinions con cerning the probable causes and effects of war. There are many .more. But after all is it really anything more than a matter of whether the nations desire war or peace? Increased under standing and an international attitude will come in time, but until then pressure against war, such as the proposed, strike, will have its effect. Help Prevent Athletes' Foot ; a... .. . . The tubs of solution for the prevention of ath letes' foot placed about the campus baths by the University health officer have been welcomed lay many a student who has suffered in silence from the discomforting malady. Since the beginning of the quarter only 25 tubs have been set in the dormitory rooms; but, according to Health Officer Nathan, the solutions in a short while will be placed in all the Uni versity bathing places if the, preventive works. , The. occupants of the dormitories where these Uubs are ipw should abide by the request of the health authorities to keep the solution i ree from trash, for only by the fullest co-operation of the students can the spread of the detested malady be prevented. Casual Correspondent . ...- by ' Nelson Lansdale HOW ABOUT ADMIRAL BYRD? Somebody somewhere along the line last week told one about a candidate for West Point tak ing the -entrance examination, and reaching the last question with only two minutes in which to finish. ; The question read : "Name ten Antarctic animals." The answer the cadet-to-be gave was : "Five walrusses and five seals." He passed the exam. WHAT (YOU DON'T KNOW "WON'T There's another, told, in a sociology seminar by Sanford Bates, director of the Depart ment of Justice's Bureau of Prisons, about an examination, this one given to a dumb athlete. Indispensable to the team, our athlete was flunking chemistry, so the coach baseball, we guess it was made , an arrangement with the chemistry professor to give, the athlete a special ex amination, in which coach and professor agreed that the ath lete need make only a grade of 50 to . pass. They asked him only two. questions. The first, "What isJ the color of blue vi triol ?" he - messed up, replying that ' it was green. Then they asked him: "What are the com ponent parts of H20?" to which he answered he didn't know. They couldn't argue with that, so they gave him his 50 v and he played in the game. V War Protest JOHN BULL AGAIN We thought we weren't going to tell any stories about the Hu man Relations Institute, but we think it our duty to pass along one told us in an interview with the New Republic's genial mild voiced Editor ' George Soule, who was illustrating the Eng lish habit of looking at every thing through English eyes. He recalled a terrific storm a few years ago , which paralyzed all communication facilities be tween the Island and the rest of the world. In the London Times the headline over the story read as follows : "Terrific Storm : Continent Isolated." (Continued from page one) cuss these questions in your classes. The purpose of the demonstration, as already an nounced, is to stimulate student thought and action on the means of preventing war. The ques tionnaire plays an important part. Appeal to Students One of the results of the anti war demonstrations which are taking place all-over the coun try today will be the effect that it will have on the militarists and those who promote war. All University' students are asked to attend to show that the campus is conscious of the war problems that confront the youth of to day. Senators Nye and Bone are among the many prominent peo ple endorsing the anti-war strikes.- Senator Nye comment edT on the movement: "The stu dent strike on April 12 is not as futile as some people seem to think. A strong demonstration will have the salutary effect of convincing jingoists of the task they will have on their hands if they attempt to force the youth of this country into another war. A unified and . simultaneous movement on a national scale will have a , far greater effect than has been obtained by occa sional independent outbursts." The call goes out to all -Carolina students and faculty mem bers to be on hand today. The committee especially urges the high school debating and ath letic teams visiting the Univer sity to attend. Don't, forget South building, 10:30! , V. GIVE 'EM HELL, BOYS And we think you ought to know about the fraternity which piled its pledges into a car and drove them eight or1 nine miles out in the country, parked the, car alongside the road near a ditch, and led the brothers-to-be blindfolded up into some wood about two hundred yards away. Leaving the blindfolded freshmen to shift for themselves, the brothers slunk away to the car. In a hasty effort to get away before the pledges should overtake them, the driver of the car somehow pulled it over in to the ditch, where it got stuck. They spun the wheels and swore and grunted and shoved, but it didn't do any good. Relenting somewhat in self-defense, the brothers summoned "the pledges, and everybody pushed. That didn't do any good either. The upshot 'was- that two of the brothers walked the three miles to the nearest filling station, got a truck to pull them out, and brought the pledges on home.

Their energy and their enthusiasm make them popular. But many others fail to take proper care of their health. Their drive and pep is often slowed down by constipation due to insufficient "bulk." t Fortunately, this can be cor rected. Kellogg's All-Bran, a delicious cereal, supplies "bulk" as well as vitamin B and iron. This "bulk" is mild in action. Two tablespoonfuls daily, served with milk or cream, are usually sufficient to promote regular habits. Ask that it be served, at your fraternity house, eating-club pr campus restaurant. " The most popular ready-to-eat ce reals served in the dining-rooms of American colleges, eating-clfibs and fraternities are made by Kellogg in Battle Creek. They include Kellogg's Corn Flakesf PEP Bran Flakes, . Rice Krispies, Wheat Krumbles, arid Kellojg's whole wheat Biscuit. Also Kagee Hag Cof feereal coffee 97 tjaffeine free.
