Recollections The fire flickered on. Each stu dent recalled what Uncle Billy had done for him and recounted some little bit of conversation that had passed between them. Each cherished whatever connec tion he had with the old janitor. All were deeply moved by the news of his death. If Uncle Billy could have seen and felt all that went on in that room, he would have properly understood his in dissoluble unit with the Univer sity for which he has worked so faithfully all his life. Now Uncle Billy becomes one of the cherish ed traditions of the University.

When Carolina re-opened aft . . . er the carpet-Dagger regime, young McDade attached himself to the University's employ. Since that time he has served in Old East dormitory when his main job was carrying water from the Old Well to the boys' wash rooms, and in many of the fra ternity houses, including Phi Del ta Theta, Sigma Chi, and Beta Theta Pi. When Graham Memorial was opened he took over a share in the janitorship of the student union, which post he actively held until his recent heart trou ble two weeks ago. Uncle Bill, for long chief " Wa-ker-upper" for Carolina stu dents,, held a pre-eminent place among the colored people of the community, according to his friends. A member of the African Methodist church, he was a ste ward and class leader. He was a trustee, treasurer, and chaplain at one time or another in both the Negro Odd Fellows and the Negro Masons. And once he was he was Noble Governor and pre late in the order of the House hold of Ruth. ; Confident Well-to-do for a colored man, Uncle Bill had established him self as a confidant for people of his own race and as a helpful "listener" for many Carolina students. He held his position as treasurer for the Odd Fellows for over 18 years, despite the fact that vail the other officers were constantly changing. Speaking yesterday, some of his ellow townsmen commented on the length of his service as treasurer. They said they kept giving him the job because he was "honest and pious" and ev erybody was "sure" of him. Several years ago the old jan itor was asked why he'd lived so ong. His reasons: "I jes guess 'se lived so long 'cause Fse work ed hard, all de time doin' sum pin' and get up early. I'se jes tried to do right and treat folks right." Little America (Continued from page two) In the past week the Admin istration has roughly sketched substitute plan that appears likely to do all that the old AAA did as well as to undertake the readjustment of conditions that had previously been undv turbed. Taking the South as an example, the new plan will retain the price of cotton, by in creasing profitable production and by decreasing, eventually wiping out, sub-marginal pro duction. Southern farmers will receive cash adiustments for planting soil-building instead of soMestroying crops where the soil is not capable of producing normally profitable returns; where areas return normal pro fits, the farmer will be paid to increase his yield. If the plan that is -being now considered by the President and his advisers is adopted, agriculture will have taken an important step toward conserving the nation's land-resources as well as acquainting the Southern farmer with the advantages and necessity of crop diversification. Unfortunately, like the old AAA program, the new proposal has not connected Southern ag riculture with the "plight of the share-cropper" except in spirit. One of the reasons why farm incomes in the South are about half the incomes earned by farming in other sections of the country is that 60 out of 100 farms in the cotton belt are run by tenants and that the great majority of tenants refused few benefits from the old AAA. Just as landlords since 1933 have gathered to themselves most of the government's cash ad j ust ments by restricting their own acreages and not their tenants, so it is to be expected that they will continue to do so under the new plan. Agriculture's third phase will come when the Federal Govern ment, scratching the soil without the assistance of landlord or credit merchant will find that the basis of the old cotton cul ture is the tenant farmer.

YANDELL Uncle Bill McDade was with out a doubt one of the tradition al landmarks of this University. His life of simplicity, "devotion, and perserverance should be an mspiration to all who knew him. White or black, he held their esteem." POOL "The student body is grieved by the death of Uncle Bill. The simplicity, humility, and rich ness of his life will forever be a source of inspiration to Caro lina students. He was a gentle man in every sense of the word, and words cannot adequately express his unselfish service and devotion to our University that he loved so well. ft Patronize Our Advertisers Varsity Basketball (Continued from page three) The conduct of the spectators at last night's game was much better than has been shown be fore.
