These Will Take Office Tomorrow dXD 0 )CYXBXOXA)(fcX 0000 000 62 7ie Editor 4 We note a lit tle item from the Waynesville pa BARKING OPINION per, which ran it as follows: "The Kings Mountain Presby tery yesterday voted against dancing in any form at Davidson College." We're not going to pass an opinion, but we'll let the little fellow speak for himself. All we have to say is that a dog is much better off scratching a gadding ilea, which he dismantles with xnuch pleasure, than trying to rid himself of a lowly tick which .sucks all his life blood. . Which all goes to prove that W have an excess imagination. At least, it ought to prove that to the Kings Mountain Presby tery. Henry Nelson Lansdale, new PLATFORM EDITOR Fin j an editor, is a, most versatile person. First be has a splintery plank m a campaign of local politics, and most recently he has become chief mourner at the funeral of a defeated politician. You see, one candidate for public office ran on the strength of a supposed "dirty deal" to ward Mr. Lansdale. This can didate lost, which meant little or nothing to the latter. Now, the victorious candidate for the student body presidency won't lift a finger toward helping Mr. Lansdale get his Finjan changed to the Buccaneer again because it was the slogan of one of his rivals in the recent political im broglio, "Change Finjan Back to Buccaneer." It must be fun to be so fought over. The funny part about the whole thing is that Lansdale has Iiad no interest nor has been in volved in the political wrang ling and its subsequent results. As for ourselves, we'd rather be the editor of a magazine than J ust another - issue. ' So would Lansdale. The Association BOVINE SURVEY of Southern Col leges and Secon dary Schools, as we know, was polled by the administration to see what the ereneral rule for class hours was. Over 65. of the institutions (around 100 answered) report ed that they held classes in the morning at 8 o'clock. We like polls and this was good one. But we scanned the list of this association yesterday and found that most of the schools were rural institutions. In these institutions even 8 o'clock is probably regarded as bemg afternoon, since the cows "were milked three or four hours earlier. Also, the butter was churned and the pigs fed in the meantime. Belonging to the Association of American Universities and eing rather proud of the fact Tve believe that this University "would do a better job polling in stitutions more like ourselves. We would suggest that the southern group be polled again and all schools reporting retiring fours before 9 p. m. be thrown out. That would help some. WILL DISCUSS BUC FINJAWJESTION Incoming Editor Lansdale Wants Return to "Buccaneer" in Name, Not in Policy. COUNCIL TO MEET TODAY The Student Council, full of new members, will be put to test tomorrow night for the first time in the 1935-36 administration as the Buccaneer vs. Finjan con roversy claims its attention. T 1 . incoming numor magazine editor Nelson Lansdale wants he name of that publication to be changed back to "Buccaneer" again, after a year's appearance as the Carolina Finjan. So the Student Council will put its brains together and decide the question of grave importance. Last fall there was consider able difficulty after the Carolina Buccaneer had been abolished, because the " Student Council could not solve how to apply Buccaneer fees to the newly created Finjan. This was final- y achieved after some haggling. Lansdale does not want peo ple to get the impression that his desire for the re-instatement of the Buccaneer title is moti vated by a plan to put out a magazine similar to the ill-fated Buccaneer. it 'Finjan' Means Nothing" Changing the name to Buc caneer does not involve any re turn to the policy of the old Buc caneer," he stated yesterday. "The name Finjan simply 4oesn' t mean anything to. me or (Continued on page three) McKEE LAUNCHES N.C. NEWSSERVICE Weekly News Service to 80 State High and Preparatory Schools Will Start Tomorrow.

McKie Will Read Drama Of History Tonight Professor to Give "Valley Forge" At Playmakers Theatre. Professor George McKie of the English department will read Maxwell Anderson's historical drama, "Valley Forge,", in the Playmakers theatre tonight at 8:30 o'clock. "Valley Forge" portrays Washington at his noblest and bravest, with the bitter world for a background. Historically accurate; and telling as it does, the story of courageous, out spoken men and women in the language of the period, it is a play to be read as well as seen. In it the defiant spirit of 1776 is brought to life again as no dramatist has done before. The play enjoyed a successful season in New York where it w7as presented by the Theatre Guild with Philip Merivale play ing the role of George Wash ington. It was favorably re viewed by the' New York Eve ning Post, the New York Times, and the New York Sun. The reading of "Valley Forge" is the eighth Sunday evening reading to be given by the Play makers this year. Professor McKie has read "Green Pastures," "Capponsa chi," and others on the play reading program. NHS' ii V::-7 -yyyy.-! Vim iiuiA' CHARLES A.
