Musical minded students on the campus received welcome news recently when Phi Mu Alpha an nounced that Albert Spaulding would appear here next quarter. Added to this attraction are the sev eral musical performances , to be sponsored here by the student entertainment committee. This committee, however, in trying to bring here several performances each year, cannot, for financial reasons, bring here as well known men as Spaulding. An example of the type of entertain ment they must bring here due to financial strin gency resulting from getting several performan ces is the magician scheduled to come to this, a University campus. It would be of much greater benefit to the stu dent body if this committee would attempt to bring here fewer performances, if necessary only one or two, and have these performances consist of top-ranking . entertainers. College students would certainly forego the pleasure of seeing rab bits come out of hats, and many of the other pro grams already scheduled, if their pass books would enable them to hear the violin of Albert Spauld ing. E. L. K. Pariah Memorial Of all the buildings on the campus, Graham Memorial alone is denied University maintenance. The , Student ; Union must pay customary high prices to the buildings department for repairs and painting. Even the Y. M. C. A., home of the profit-making Book Exchange, receives main tenance service free. Director Pete Ivey is asking that the adminis tration extend its maintenance services to Gra ham Memorial. Students pay three dollars per year to support the Union. These funds are best used to replace equipment and furnish entertain ment. The Student Union is a vital part of the cam pus, a valuable addition to the University. It deserves University maintenance. S. W. R. o Do You...? In spite of the age of mechanization in which we live there are some of us who still use the old-fashioned two-for-a-nickle lead pencils. And that is one explanation of the violent expletives one hears at intervals echoing through the halls of Bingham, Murphey, and Saunders. To be. brief, we need pencil sharpeners; not a little dab of pencil sharpeners, but a whole mess of pencil sharpeners. There is an acute scarcity of this commodity in our class buildings, and the few we have are confined to professorial cells. One in each classroom would not be too many. Students in the midst of an exam find themselves faced with the problem of locating a pencil sharp ener in order to continue. And we are sure the harassed secretaries who do possess them would be grateful if someone put an end to the continual interruptions caused by students poking their heads in the door with the query: "Do you have a pencil sharpener?"

ARE WE MEN OR MICE? To the Editor, The Daily Tar Heel: I would like to explain to my fellow freshmen why we appar ently are the bulwark of the school and yet have nothing to say. ' While we are being fattened by flattery of our importance by President John Parker and his cohorts, they are carefully keep ing freshmen off the various committees. Thus only upper classmen are put up for nomina tions, but no freshmen ! We freshmen as a body control the campus vote. Let's show our power in the election. Dean House gave us the one piece of advice that we must fol low don't take others' advice ! Think for yourself ! The time is coming when we must combine our forces and make our deci sion. Are we men or are we mice? Think it over! Frederick E. Banner. ORIENTATION To the Editor, The Daily Tar Heel: Dear Janie, . Well I'm a full-fledged worm, now: freshman, to be exact All us "underlings" are - going around with purple handbooks that are so loud they almost yell out like the upperclassmen, "Fresh-muh." ' We've been tak-: ing placement ' tests yesterday and : today. Yesterday morning we had English. Had to write a 500 word theme in 55 minutes from one of six inadequately named topics. Result, 0. Had French in the afternoon. Prof who administered it was ok but the exam was sorta tough. This- morning all we poor green eggs went; up to take the psychology department's College Altitude VTest ; (they called it aptitude, tout vsince . it tells how high up you're to be put, I guess that musta been a typographical error). The first section was taken up with trying to see if we were fools, the second with making us prove we were fools, and the third gave us an oppor tunity to be made fools of. Really it was a magnificent test; clinches a person's ability to teach psychology; but it looked a bit overwhelming for a poor, underprivileged, motheaten, un derfed, dumb f reshie. v Wahoo Then came the Indians (or rather the mathematicians). Janie, if you know that a tan gent is anything but a kind of red bird, you've got me beat. I didn't remember even the bear essentials of Trig. I also just remembered that a radical is a communist, but they tried to tell me that a number of times itself DO YOU KNOW YOUR STATE ? I maw coiiawibie home were 5hiprh FROM HERETO CUIfORfllA DURING THE GOiP RU5H IN 1040 would be the same as one under a radical. AIM ever saw under a radical was a soap box; but I couldri't argue with 'em, 'cause they had Ph.D's and I only got a headache. Afternoon dawned at last. In firmary, here I came. Had to sit down and tell 'em all my family history, including whether I thought Uncle Ezra's bad dispo sition was caused by fallen arches or whether he was just a natural-born horse-thief. Had I ever had mumps? If so, how many? What about measles? That was just what I wanted to wanted to know, what about it? but they kept on by asking if it was German or just ordinary. Did I jhave the usual three whoops when I had whooping cough?; Then after all these questions, they asked me if I had or ever had had dandruff or ath lete's foot or anything between the two. Upon telling them I rode a bi cycle for exercise, I was asked whether I used a band to keep the bicycle chain from chewing up my trousers. I said no, I didn't ever need one. They put that down against me, saying I was careless or something. I didn't know that those things were so important, but it seemed . that if you part your hair in the middle, you should be vaccinated in the left arm. I seized upon this by asking one of the doctors very confidentially where they vaccinated you if you didn't part your hair or parted it on one side instead of the middle. He looked at me so much as to say, "Why. you poor fool !" But then he looked very wise and said that as a rule you were given vaccinations on the left arm any way. Funny business, this medi cal profession. I guess when I get to l?e a senior I can act that way and be called smart too. Questions Stopped They stopped asking questions after a while and decided that maybe they could find out more about you if they looked them selves. Gosh, they got it worked out systematic-like. They test your lung capacity by seeing how much air you can blow in a little can. Then while you are still breathless, they make you more, so by sending you up a flight of stairs. There is a fel low there to meet you who takes your blood pressure and kicks you in the shins to seeLif your reflexes are all right If you grab your leg and holler, the re flexes are ok and they check on the tonsils, teeth, and liver while your mouth is open. I found out how to get out of the eye -testing department quick. When they say, "Read the IN immVE XtM NO RAIN IN KC FROM THE MIDPIE OF MARCH 10 JAf FIRST OF DID YOU KK0W that APPROXIMATELY 400 TAR HKHf FOUGHT I N THE WAR OF JENK1 N' EAR?THEY FOUGHT THE5PANIW IN fOUTrf AMERICA mmirn cm ohm mum MAN5EAR FACTS ABOUT YOUfc COnnOfllTf letters on that chart," why you just say very nonchalantly, "What chart?" v While they're doping that one, slip out. They catch you at the door, though, and tattoo you They don't call 'em Susie and Annabelle like the sailors have, though. They got college names and modernistic designs. They called my two Small Pocks and To Berkley Osis. They are both real gems of art. This dissertation is overcom ing my endurance, Janie. An other chapter will follow soon if you don't object. I'm getting along pretty fair, hope you're the same. Write. ,.-. ' George. , R AD I O By Bud Kornblite Denotes outstanding program. 7:00 WDNC Col. Stoopnagle and Bud.

So tough is he, in fact, that when Communist Candidate Earl Browder came to Terre Haute for a speech at the In diana State Teachers college, Mayor Beecher "had a reception committee sent to meet Mr Browder at the train. The com mittee membership was police in nature, and they took Mr. Brow der to jail. Had Mayor Beecher jailed Governor Landon or President Roosevelt, both candidates for the same office Mr. Browder seeks, public opinion would have been outraged. We may not agree with a sin gle idea that Mr. Browder pre sents. We may be prejudiced enough to regard communism as a loathsome mess. But, like Vol taire, we must fight for the right of every man to the free expres sion of his principles. Mr. Browder may be a num ber of things, but he is scarcely a vagrant. It is regrettable that the electorate of Terre Haute, the people of Indiana, and the citizens of America must share with Sam Beecher the blame for an asinine blunder. z: NOW PLAYING FRJUiilS IE0ERER AIIIJ SOTHEMI UK' 1 A fmiMgnt Pictwr with FRED STONE BILLIE BURKE ALSO COMEDY NEWS CASH NIGHT TONIGHT Cash Award $50.00 7 Just Received At The YOUNG LIEN'S SHOP TWEED SLACKS Authentically tailored and correct for campus and sports wear.
