The poster displays A circle of life crossed by four jbars of equal size that represent IBeauty, Truth, Goodness, and Usefulness in an interlocking .and interdependent fashion. To Really Live According to Dr. Niebuhr, to discover and consistently live the proper balance between these :four qualities is really to live.

CAMPUS KEYBOARD Debaters Selected For Cambridge Meet McMullan, Barnett to Oppose Visiting Pair from England Harry McMullan and Joe Bar nett have been chosen to repre sent the University at the de bate on November 18. when Car olina will, be host to C. J. M. Alport and John Rbyle, versatile Cambridge debaters. Oliver Cross was chosen as first alter nate at the last meeting of the debate squad. : The Wake Forest debate is the next verbal battle on the de bating schedule. At this time Carolina will be represented by Oliver Cross, Joe Barnett, and Harry McMullan, with J. B. McMillan serving as first alternate. yjiXLvuuA win participate in a number of debates with nation ally recognized teams this year. rphere may be some analogy be tween the scarcity of presiden tial timber in the national poli tical scene and the equally grave scarcity of men-of-the-campus at Chapel Hill. It is well recognized that no man, however brilliant, can pos sibly comprehend all a United States president could know about his office (and still have a long way to go). And so it affects the parties' search for a candidate. In addition to the cranial qualifications and ex- penence, a presidential candi date must have money, either in his own pocket or the purse of a friend, he must have a popular record, and he must have flexible enough views, despite his career, to make suitable party conces sions. On the face of it, find ing candidates looks like hunt ing for a needle in a haystack. On the campus a somewhat similar situation exists, although there are different determining i actors, a stuaent orwuia through and earns a name for himself early in his sophomore year. From then on he is kept pretty busy turning down new jobs. The reason he is offered them is because his name is known and his abilities tried, and because he has little compe tition. Many of our most cap able men. have never broken through .early in their college careers and consequently don t stand a prayer of larger campus positions during later years. : Furthermore, politics affects the local aspirant from the mo ment he arrives, in most cases. Nationally, however, a man can run along for many years before he has to get into the game, al though it is usually a good idea to have been interested even if not active in politics during those years. xesteroay we taiKed witn a student who has only been here slightly over a - year, having transferred from another cdfl lege. He got his break through sheer ability last spring and this year he has had so much to do that he hardly finds time to sleep. He is most able and would be an idea student leader after spring elections gave him the opportunity; but he won't be elected because he hasn't been m campus politics long enough. . Whether it is the local politi cal system or just plain student ennui that causes a few men to be worked so desperately hard is conjectural. In the nation the latter situation results from the former system, and we have an idea that something of this na ture has happened on this cam- pus.P.G.H. Approximately 750 students yesterday answered the call of the peace mobilizers, did without their morning Coca Cola and the snack at the Book Ex. and flock ed to Memorial hall to hear in the able words of Bill Carter, principal speaker on the pro gram, a challenge which struck right at the heart of the peace issue. After outlining the growth of imperialism and the expanding nature of the present economic system, Carter drew this signi ficant conclusion: "A demand for peace would involve a com plete reorganization of our eco nomic system a planned econo my much more far-reaching than the New Deal, an economy abol ishing the profit motive." And the challenge: "Are the students of America willing to take such a step to secure peace?" Few Voters' Of the number of students who attended the peace meeting, 12 and a half percent voted on the issues presented in the Daily Tar Heel ballot, or 94 out of 750. Of these 94, 87 voted yes on the first issue; that is, 87 favor genuine neutrality "legislation to prevent : entanglement of the United States in war no loans, credits, munitions, or secondary war materials. To the second question, "do you favor the demilitarization of our colleges and schools by as suring the passage of the Nye Kvale bill to make R. O. T. C. op tional instead of compulsory."

Mysterious Placards - Protest Board Rates Student Protective Association Again Bursts Forth The mystie Students Protec tive Association has again burst forth in printed protest of high board rates in Chapel Hill. In place of the old theme pa per posters used in the last ex pression of contempt for local hash-houses, neat, cardboard ones, printed in red, feature this larger, second epidemic of "pro tecting." Whether or noT this fly-by-night clan is an organized body is uncertain. Thus far its sole sign of activity seems to be the posting of placards about the campus. .
