Believers in a class concious ness on the campus find little so lace in such happenings as the xecent meeting of the seniors to discuss the class budget.

E. Zucker's lecture at the Bull's Head yesterday afternoon. "We have no figure in litera ture, Zucker began, "who has caused more excitement than Henrik Ibsen caused in his day. When Ibsen finished an act of one of his plays, all the newspa pers ran stories about it on the front page. "Once I made a pilgrimage to the graves of Ibsen and his wife. Both graves were very plain. A hammer was engraved on the monument at Ibsen's grave, and the word 'thanks' was engraved on Mrs. Ibsen's tombstone. "For six years Henrik Ibsen worked as clerk in a drug store. The store has been preserved as a monument to him. "He wrote one play every oth er year. During this time he lived with his characters and re fused to receive callers. This is how he came to give us such life-like characters in his famous plays." In conclusion, Dr. Zucker said of the playwright : "In Ibsen we do not find a well-rounded per sonality, but we do find a man who was supreme in his field." - The speaker, who is head of the University German depart ment is an authority both oh the Chinese theatre and Ibsen and has written several books. CHANG TO DISCUSS CHINESE CULTURE Exchange Professor will Speak at 8 :30 Tonight in Hill Music Hall Chinese civilization with its varied political and social changes, will be rapidly survey ed by Dr. Y. Z. Chang, visiting Chinese professor, tonight at 8:30 in Hill Music hall. The exchange professor has served alternately as professor of Chinese at Johns Hopkins University, where he received his doctor's degree' in English, and as professor of English at National Wuhan University, at Wuchang, China. An important phase of his discussion will be that on the yielding of China's pacifism and contempt oi torce to a new source of strength and science, and the question of peace and international co-operation or revenge and imperialism. (Continued on page two) Sociologist Urges Betterment v Of Negro University Facilities Dr. Johnson Claims White and Negro Education Systems Not Equal Southern state constitutions provide for. separate and equal school systems for whites and Negroes, but Guy B. Johnson, so ciological professor and one of the foremost authorities on ra cial questions in the south de clared in a recent interview that "the systems are separate but they are not equal." "And there are only three al ternatives open to the states," continued Dr. Johnson. "They must either provide adequate fa cilities for graduate and profes sional instruction in separate Negro schools ; they must give cash subsidies to Negroes to pay their tuition in schools of other states; or they must admit Ne groes to white universities." He said that the third alter INTEREST SHOWN IN BIRTHDAY BALL BY TICKET SALES Proceeds of Affair to be Given to Cure Of Infantile Paralysis The large sale of tickets to the President's Birthday Party to morrow night reveals a keen in terest displayed by students in the gala celebration in the Car olina Inn and Bynum gymnas ium.

PHI MEN DISCUSS ADMITTING NEGRO Assembly Votes Against Allowing Ne . groes to Enter State Universities Discussion on a bill proposing the admission of Negroes to all state universities started mildly in the Phi Assembly last night and ended in a smoking debate in which even Speaker Wylie Parker participated. ' Nearly all of the assembly men took part in either attack mg or defending the bill. The debate was of the longest dura tion of any so far this school year. Several assemblylmen held that the Negro should be "held in his place," advocating segre gatibn. They warned against "mob violence" that might be precipated if Negroes were ad mitted here. . Ah equal number of speakers held that the long-run solution (Continued mt page two) native would be the most econo mical but that it would have very little chance against the prevail ing prejudices. Such a proposi tion would leave the state in an uproar, he stated. "And what of the Negroes' viewpoint?" asked Dr. Johnson. "They are not solidly in favor of attending white institutions, principally because of the preju dices which they would have to stand. Many say they would pre fer separate schools if the states would live up to their promises of equal facilities. Although they do resent having to attend second and third rate schools, they are not in favor of out-of-state subsidies, an - alternative which they say passes the buck and delays the solution of the problem." .

"Call attention to your good points, and people will forget about your bad ones. Whatever your good points are, accentu ate them. I am sure that every woman knows whether her ank les, or her arms, or her complex ion are her best points. If you have a small waistline, by all means see that your coats and suits are cut to show; that waist line." The young mezzo soprano adds, "The average girl in this country poisons her body by eating starchy foods, breathing improperly and suffering fa tigue, fear, and boredom. , jCp eds should cultivate a taste for simple foods and preserve their energy." "Never wear scarfs or muff lers because they enhance the possibility of colds. Take hot baths in the summer and . cold ones in the winter in order.. to combat the temperature."

Archibald Henderson will give the last in his series of lec tures on the geometrical solids this . afternoon from 3 to 4 o'clock in the mathematics semi nar room before members of the mathematics department and ad vance and graduate students.
