It" has been our observation throughout that never before has a freshman class so quickly and effectively adapted itself to new environments and new du ties. And this condition in large part can be attributed to Chair man Spruill and his committee. One fault has become more ob vious, however, as the time rolls on. The faculty advisors are, in our opinion, considerably over worked. It may be alright to ask a young faculty member with his future before him to give up his entire afternoon each day to ad vise freshmen at no extra remu neration, but it's too much to in crease his duties to the point where he has to come back at night and clean up what the aft ernoon left undone. .; Young faculty members are interesting people, because they are usually brilliant and ambiti ous and vigorous.

Ex-President Verner was at first appointed but was unable to fill the vacancy. 1 Members of the senate passed the bill condemning the Supreme Court's . decision concerning the AAA and the second bill, that all upperclassmen - should have op tional attendance, was defeat ed. Senator Verner, acting as critic for the meeting, comment ed on the lively discussion which these subjects incurred. President Howell appointed Wingfield, Watts, Reid, Sloan, and Miss Beacham to serve on the membership committee, with Wingfield as chairman. Willi ams was nominated to act as critic again this quarter and was unanimously elected. Two new members John Miller and Jerry King, were presented and unanimously accepted.

The speaker, in giving a sur vey of the more prominent thinkers of the world, explained the philosophies of Aristotle and Kant, and summed up their en tire beliefs in the philosophy of Hegel, who lived in the early 19th century.

Demonstrating his lecture with pictures taken during his seven months of visiting in Rus sia, Nelson offered his interpre tation of the existing Russian government and society. Accord ing to the world traveler, Rus sia is at present in the midst of a tremendous industrial and so cial revolution, the effects of which will not be known for sev eral years. Religion The Rhodes Scholar spoke of the Communistic influences on religion. Religious faiths other than atheism are tolerated only so long as they do not interfere with general social functioning.

In Today's News There's no sense in opening Swain hall," declared the pro prietress of one of Chapel Hill's boarding houses, "because col lege boys want bright lights where they eat." Be that as it may, the brightly lighted restaurants on the whole do not intend to make the im provements necessary for the ex tra number of students who, mi nus Swain, are now eating up town. These eating places claim that they, can accommodate all their patrons, and therefore see no need for extra space. It is quite obvious however that the noon hour finds them too crowd ed for comfort.
