"TO CREATE A CAMPUS PERSONALITY A JOURNAL OP THE ACTIVITIES OF CAROLINIANS VOLUME XLIV EDITORIAL PHONE 4351 CHAPEL HELL, N. C., SATURDAY, JANUARY 4, 1936 BUSINESS FHOXE 4156 NUMBER 70 III Yif THE CAMPUS KEYBOARD by Phil Hammer Insects in Education Students and Faculty Class Lecture Calendar Student-Faculty Day Committees Enter Home Stretch Preparation Snyder's Machine Now in High Gear For February 13 Stunt Night and Exhibit Pro grams for. Second Celebration Are Nearing Completion The mortality rate in Carolina scholarship described an altitu- dinous curve for .the fall quar ter, and no wonder. All other personal factors aside, there were plenty of dis tractions to harass the Carolina gentleman at his books Perhaps the most aggravating of all the disturbing insects was the Rose Bowl bug, better known as the Gold Coast Mosquito. And run . ning a close second was the soci ety butterfly, harmless enough looking but capable of quite an irritation. - "V v There were other insects,, too. like the new curriculum centi fta the eligibility worm, the j .. w . w . , . Duke wasp, and a few others All in all,, it was. a question of winning at the old skm game. and a few hundred of our f el low campusites had little luck. DATE CHANGE NECESSARY H is foolish to expect the stu Sent body to get excited abou Student-Faculty Day so soon af ter the two weeks' respite from the grind. But the second an nual event is coming up in a month and a half and there's much work to be done. : Stiident-Faculty Day is still in a metamorphic stage, so far as its becoming a tradition is con cerned. It was founded on a very sound idea, however, and its spirit will carry it on through out the years. Few of us ban forget the sheer charm of such student - faculty interminglings as were in evidence at the first celebration last February. ". As usual, several over-worked individuals will have to carry the burden of arrangements. But the idea behind the whole thing is so compelling that nothing really matters much except Student-Faculty Day itself and the spirit which it conveys. Plans for the-second annual Student-Faculty Day, which will take place in Chapel Hill Feb ruary 13, are rapidly material lzing as Jake Snyder and his student-faculty committee begin their active work. Due to a conflict with the ap pearance of Gladys Swarthout, famous soprano, which is spon sored by Phi Mu Alpha, the date of the affair has been changed from Wednesday, February 12, to one day later. Exhibits On Wednesday, however, the departmental exhibits will be assembled and the freshman Parents' Day will be celebrated Two of the sub-committees one headed by Jane Ross to de,- vise the stunt night program and the other by Frank Willingham and Dr. Harold D. Meyer to arrange the exhibits, have al ready completed many plans in their respective fields. Other committees, one of fa culty invitations headed by Jul ien Warren and Dr. E. L. Llac kie" and another to arrange con vocation services headed by Billy Yandell and Dean R B. House, Staff Members Members of the editorial staff of the Daily Tar Heel will meet this afternoon in Graham Memorial at 2 o'clock. Every staff member is re quired to be present. The meeting will be brief but important.

" : ... The pros and cons of the Play maker organization will be dis cussed in another article,-in which Pete Ivey attacks the act ors and Irving Suss and Bob Christmas brought among other things the renovation of several campus dormitories and buildings according to a con struction . program outlined by Assistant Controller L. B. Rog erson, and P. L. Burch, super visor of the physical plant." The reworking of Battle- Vance-Pettigrew dormitories, begun a few days before the holidays and scheduled for com pletion Tuesday evening, has re sulted in two coats, of paint in each room. The bathrooms of the New Dorms were repaired and paint ed, as were the - walls and stair ways. Mirrors ' which were taken down during the painting will be replaced over each lava tory in the various rooms. Picture molding was placed alongside the ceilings of each room. The renovation t is part of an extensive program which will continue in the fu Continued on last page) For Those Who Failed All those who failed a course during the past quar ter must repeat that course before continuing with its successive class, according to C.

It was exulted optimism to be lieve that local students would "want to increase the number of their daily classes, despite the attractiveness of the program. And it was perhaps unfair to ask the faculty to assume the main burden, in arranging their schedules to allow for visitors, since our faculty members seem to have enough to do in the new curriculum as it is. We can push along, however, and the more ambitious 'students and less entangled professors might be able to get together enough to warrant a continuance of the plan. December sanitary ratings of Chapel Hill restaurants and dai ries will be published in Tues day's issue of the Daily Tar Heel pending the return of Dr. M. H. Rourk, local health chief, to Chanel Hill. Dr. Kourk is expected here Monday. The new ratings are, accord ing to a cursory survey here yes pets Left on Broadway."

Those arrested were cited to court and must appear as per threats of the highway depart ment to "show them no mercy" if they failed to display the black and green plates by Jan uary 1. ; . . . The arrests attracted a con siderable crowd of idling stu dents and town standers-by. Ef forts of the Chapel Hill police force were directed at keeping the crowd of spectators at bay so that the state officers might ply their trade freely. Interviewed yesterday, City Manager J. L. Caldwell said that Chapel Hill car owners would have until tomorrow to get city tags. Arrests are expected to be made starting Monday. L. C. MacKinney, professor of history, will sail from. New York today with Mrs. Mac Kinney and his son Loren, bound for Cherbourg, France. Working on a Kenan travel ling professorship and a grant in aid from. the American Coun cil of Learned Societies, Dr. Mac Kinney will spend the next nine months in France, Germany, Italy, and England doing' re search in medieval medicine. Translation He will find most of his ma terial in old hand-written illu minated volumes; and the bulk of his work will be translating these Latin texts. At the con clusion of his research he ex pects to write a book, probably in collaboration with some med ical expert. 7 - - - The MacKinneys will return to Chapel Hill in September, be fore, the fall re-opening of -the University.
