""stinks" could have been avoid
ed by the simple exercise of
normal functions by student
leaders. It is extremely unfor
tunate that we are content to
allow odoriferous exposes jack
us up, when simple interest and
intelligence would have contin
ously precluded the necessity
for our shake-downs.
The Student Council began its
yearly activities much as any
other council, drifting along
with full sanction of the student
Iwdy. It came to the inevitable
realization that many things
were in a sorry state and its
membership was strong enough
and intelligent enough to push
forward at rust-chipping. Per
Tiaps the council should not have
started investigating the co
op. However, the fact remains
that, if they could have proved
that the co-op was a. student
organization, it was their duty
to protect student interests by
such actions. "
If there is one student who
can refute the argument that al
such reaking affairs as the cheat
ing ring resulted from campus
sanction of governmental torpid
ity, we will be glad to take his
-word as authoritative that the
Student Council is "sticking its
neck out." Until we find him

SENIORS SELECT
OSBORNE'S BAND
Executive Committee to Get
Will Osborne's Black Hawk
Orchestra for Dances
The Student Council last night
temporarily called a halt to its
investigation of the Student Co
operative association by declar
ing the company "not a student
organization."
Francis Fairley, president of
the student body, emphasized the
fact that this declaration was
suspended 'merely the opinion of the pre-
sent council and might be re
versed' by succeeding bodies.
Question
The question decided last
night, Fairley stated, did not
concern any results of investiga
tion into the Co-operative asso
ciation but merely the power of
the council to conduct a probe
into-. the. activities and status of
the organization.
Harper Barnes and Haywood
Weeks, who represented the di
rectors of the association, con
tended that any student member
is free at -any time to examine
the books of the company, but
that the council, as a body not a
members could not investigate
the records in order to determine
the association status.
Probe Origin
The probe of the Co-operative
association began March 3 when
the Student Council unanimous
ly passed a resolution to investi
gate the organization and clear
up numerous accusations and ru
mors on the campus. Two days
later a committee, headed by
Stuart Rabb, was appointed.
When an objection, centering
around the council's right to take

made because the person had a

It was voted last night at the
joint meeting of the senior class
executive and dance committees
to have Will Osborne's orchestra
for the Junior-Senior dances.'
Osborne is now playing at the
Black Hawk in Chicago and
broadcasts over WGN, on the
Mutual hook-up. His orchestra
is noted for its trombone sec
tion.
lhe Junior-benior dances on
May 8 and 9 will close the senior
week program which begins on
May '4.
The executive committee also
announced a tentative program
for senior week. On Monday
there will probably be a free
movie for members of the class ;'
Tuesday, a faculty baseball
game ; Wednesday, carnival
night ; Thursday, Golden Fleece
tapping; and Friday and Satur
day, Junior-Senior dances.
Next Tuesday morning at 10

Chapel Hill's Dogdom
Possesses Many Noted
And Popular Members
Chapel Hill without its dogs
would be like a circus without
its elephants.
These canine citizens of the
town sleep in dormitories, in
spare rooms, andr in fraternity
houses, depending upon the diff
erent boarding establishments
for meals. Some of the dogs at
tend classes regularly and oth
ers make a point of being pre
sent at all public gatherings.
Among the socially prominent
members of the dog population
are Bing, the howling sensation
of the current year; Thomas
Jefferson, the stateliest of the
dogs-about-town ; and Patsey,
the playwright and "terrier" of
the Mongrel theatre, who is
probably the best known because
of his habit of getting lost.
Rubinoff, a seven-year gradu
ate, in summer maintains a
bachelor apartment in Memorial
hall, and in the winter alter
nates . between suites in the
Kluttz and Strowd buildings.
Boots, who lives somewhere
across Franklin street, is popu
larly supposed to have the long
est tail for his weight of any
dog in Orange county; and
Stovepipe, a lengthy pooch of
Dachshund extraction, is believ
ed to be even lower than ab
sconding cafe proprietors.
