C., WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1935 business momt NUMBER 59 Hoping to raise at least $100 the local branch of the National Tuberculosis Association is con ducting its annual drive to sell Christmas seals among Univer sity students. -. Seventy-five per cent of the money thus collected will be used on the campus to assist stu dents who have a tubercular in lection but who are unable to pay for examination and treat ment. The remaining 25 per cent will be given to state -and na tional associations to be used hi their activities to prevent and cure tuberculosis. According to D. Mosier who has charge of the drive, the percentage al lotted to local use is larger than that of any other charitable or ganization. Student Canvass A personal canvass of students wall be made today. There will be at least one man in each dormi tory and fraternity house to sell the seals. Frank Rogers is sub chairman in charge of the upper quadrangle and Harold Bennett is directing -the drive in the low er quadrangle. - Mosier pointed out that the co-operatiori of the student'body is necessary to make this drive a success. If each man in the University contributes no more 'than 10 cents, he said, the goal of the campaign will be reached. He also pointed out that there is no fund on the campus at pres ent which provides for the aid of needy students with tubercu lar tendencies and that this drive is the only way in which money for such a project can be obtained. kach year the Tuberculosis Association conducts a drive to . wards raising money for tuber- cular patients. Funds are raised j oy the selling of Christmas I seals to be used on envelopes and packages. ,.. , 7 WORLD TRAVELER TO TALK TONIGHT Cummings to Relate Experiences In South Sea Islands Philip H.

A student movement to de mand the re-opening of Swain hall as a modern dininjr room center was definitely begun last night, as Phi assembly president Francis Fairley appointed a three-man committee to take im mediate action. The appointment followed a unanimous recom mendation for the rehabilitation of Swain at a previous meeting. The committee, composed of Stuart Rabb, chairman, Wilburn Davis and Ed Hamlin, plans an actiT campaign culminated by a mass meeting of students to call upon the Administratim for action . . . Meanwhile, when reached last night, Dean A. W. Hobbs "knew of ' o action" that the adminis tration had taken toward re opening the eating establish ment. Other administrative officers could not be contacted.

A summation of the findings of McKee's committee with sta tistical proof appeared in a re cent issue of the Carolina Mag azine. The conclusion was that student welfare requires a Uni versity managed eating estab lishment here. It was pointed out that the University is one of the few schools that do not provide eating accommodations for their students.

A BOUT this time of the year,1 when the fall quarter drags its weary self to an anti-climac tic ending, many of us begin to wonder if something shouldn't be done about the length of the fall session. The fact that it's two weeks longer than the other two quar ters very probably has many reasons to justify it, but it's somewhat surprising that the state legislators, . in their ef forts to cut down expense, didn't slice off the first two weeks of the fall quarter for financial rea sons. Think of the coal they would save and other things, too, with every student costing the state about $150 a year, or $5 per week. - But" that was one thing the legislators overlooked and shame on them for it. Maybe they be lieve, as many people do, that in college as it is. Other people think the legislators don't spend enough time in, the legislature, either, but that's beside the. point. Anyway, there is something to this complaint about the excess length of this session. When ex aminations are in the mid-term, as under the semester system, the intervening holidays at Christmas and Easter are long enough to break in and allow a little rest before the final spurt toward exams. But, in our, opin ion, after two months or more of somewhat hectic college life, the Thanksgiving holidays under our system do nothing more than make the last three weeks of the fall quarter a tedious anti-climax. - ..; Perhaps making "the session shorter wouldn't help much, but we'd like to find but . why it's longer than, the others. Maybe it's because there is so much happening in the fall that we need lots of time to do every thing on the program. Put to a vote, we'd wager that about 90 per cent of the student body would rather forego the pro gram for two weeks of Septem ber, weather before the class rooms open. That is, if you could get enough people out to vote in the poll. P. G. H. ; . ;
