Other business of the Publica Winter Quarter To Open Three Days Later On Monday Registrar Moves Resulting from a conference held yesterday afternoon, Regis trar T. J. Wilson and Dean of Administration R. B. House is sued a statement that the win ter quarter would open Monday, January 4, retracting a previous announcement that classes would begin New Year's day. Registration "After an examination of the dates which have been used for the past 10 years," the state ment read, "we have asrreed upon the following plan: regis tration of all students now in the University, Thursday, December 10, until 1 o'clock Saturday, December 19; registration of new students and final comple tion of all registration Saturday, January 2; classes start Mon day, January 4, at 8:30 a. m." Protection The decision to begin classes on January 1 was made mainly to protect the work to be done hi the winter quarter, according to the statement. "It was fully realized," it continued, "that these dates were somewhat ear lier than has been the custom. "It now appears that a mis take was made and that begin ning classes on Friday, January 1, is not wise." The statement called attention to the fact that the editor of the catalogue, T. J. Wilsoh, was not entirely responsible for fixing the dates. The beginning of the spring quarter immediately after the Phi Assembly Bill olina Magazine, due out this Senators Robert Reynolds and m0nth.

DEAN ADDRESSES FIRSTYEAR MEN Spruill's Theme Is Value Of Education "The schooling of a technician is less important than the edu cation of a man," said Dean C. P. Spruill in freshman assembly yesterday morning. "While universities will tend to die out unless they serve the purpose of training a person to earn a living," he stated, neither vocational -training nor educa tion is the whole of life: "The essentials here are ex- - j : 1 "1. . pansion, deepening, strengtnen ing, and discipline ; but whatev er your purpose in coming here, these essentials must be trans J mm latedmto action tor that pur pose," he stated. Mr. Spruill expressed the hope that each student would get the feeling of "coming home to Chapel Hill" and would seek the great rewards to be gained from meditation surrounded by the beauty that is "here. Carolina Student Tells of Exper iences Upon Return from European Study To be mistaken as an English spy was the experience of John Kendrick, of Greensboro, who has returned to the University this quarter following a year's study in Europe. Traveling in Italy during the recess between semesters, Ken drick and another American were mistaken as English spys, 'for the feeling toward England was very intense," John stated. Surrounded by a whole group of excited children, the two only managed to get away when a person who could, explained that they were Americans. Studied Kendrick attended the Uni versity of Berlin for one semes ter and spent another at Koe- nigsburg, in East Prussia. "I was , supposedly studying," John smiled, "for I thought it best to keep my eyes and ears open in order to assimilate the customs and ideas of the people of the country." .
