To Help Something Better Crow o Bridging The Gap IN THE CAROLINA Inn tonight, Dr. Graham of ficially welcomes the newly-organized Hillel foundation to the campus. With purposes to promote the cultural and re ligious life of Jewish students, the Hillel chapter has offices in the Y. M. C. A. and is under the su pervision of Rabbi Zeiger. Caring for the spiritu al lives of students otherwise ignored, the founda , tion will fill a wide gap in the religious life of the University. Any organization seeking after the good life5 is vital to an educational institution, and to the Hillel foundation the campus extends a cordial welcome. Good Going Bad? IMMEDIATE manifestations of student spirit in- dicate a splendid new enthusiasm 'that is rising in intensity among undergraduates. Friday night late after the coed ball tuxedo-ed boys and gown ed girls yelled and sang themselves hoarse; 40 campus leaders in various fields are working late hours on a plan for a real student union; the stu dent audit board is this week returning to the fold of student government ; fraternity rushing is providing, however artificial, a wave of friend liness and-brotherhood ; the ball game and Grail dance last Saturday reflected general student wel fare and good will; the proverbial, but accusedly faded, Carolina spirit is fresher and livelier this s morning than we've seen it under normal condi tions in our generation . . . . With a sound group of men being installed in the class honor councils, (and the momentary fi asco of New Year's day classes happily blown ov er), we may be witnessing a re-animation right now of that Carolina student body carcass Fred Weaver pictured last week . . . The prospect of smooth sailing should not by any odds make us ' pull light on the lines: there really might be such a thing as harmonious progress without a strug gle. J. M. S. Downkeep YOU MAY NOT know it, but if you paid your fee to Graham Memorial last year you also paid part of the cost of operating the union for stu dents here during the past summer session. Because the administration wanted to encour age students to come here last summer, absolute ly no fee was charged them, for the upkeep of Memorial. Most students will not object to paying for run ning' the memorial while they are in school. But it hardly seems fair to use their money for up keep when they are not here to get any benefits therefrom. We join Director Pete Ivey in suggesting that summer school students be charged for using Graham Memorial. Or, if the tax is so direct that it reduces summer session rolls, the state might appropriate a lump sum for summertime upkeep. That word "appropriation" is so easy to say. S. , W. R. ". I -- ( i G o r r e s p o n d e n ce Letters Over 250 Words Subject to Cutting by Editor DATE BUREAU To the Editor, The Daily Tar Heel : There has been a lot of whoop-de-doodle about admitting Chapel Hill girls as coeds so that University Profs can pay that next installment without ' rob bing the baby, which seems to be an excellent idea. For a better balance to the so cial life of the campus, I feel a crying need for more girls which this freshman-sophomore en trance would bring. But while waiting to achieve that GOOD TURN for addi tional girls on the campus why not use more efficiently our pres ent resources and institute -procedures that would give wider circulation to our present girls. Believe it or not there is a surprising number of girls who know very few boys well enough to date and the same is true of the boys in spite of mass intro duction at Grail dances. Surely one is not demanding too much to ask for more girls at those hello-goodby struggles. The solution? Can anyone, inform me of the Y. W. C. A. Dating Bureau spoken of last spring? R. A. it PLEDGE WHAT? To the Editor, The Daily Tar Heel: The freshmen were told on coming nere that the honor sys tem, supported and administered by the student body, was one of the finest aspects of life here on the campus. We were also told that this system depended upon the co-operation of each individ ual for itsfinal success. When we go into class we are required to sign each paper with the honor pledge. Does this show that the students are really trusted by the faculty and that the honor system is in their hands? " Further, what real good does this pledge do? If a student is cheating, he certainly would not hesitate to go a little further and lie also. If a fellow becomes a gentleman here at Carolina by writing a pledge upon a piece of paper, instead of becoming one by arousing the better, parts of his nature, then we have ceased to have a real honor system here.

LET'S LIVE Even an unemployed Ameri can can be thankful for one thing he does not live in Eu rope. The question is not : "Will there be a general war?" but "How long until it breaks?" And it should not matter to Americans who fights whom, whether the Reds beat the Fascists or vice versa or if they, exterminate each other. What we want to do is to stay out. We want to stay out and retain our national honor. If it .becomes a case of sacrificing a little national honor to keep out, we say still let's stay out. National honor can be rebuilt. Consider the war of 1812. One would think that we could not possibly keep any seeds of honor through that debacle. ""But if we are killed, we can not be brought back to life. If our legs and lungs are ruined, we can't get new ones. It is a question of life versus war. Let's live. Newspaper correspondents in the war zone have so much time on their hands that they have resorted to knitting. And using, we suppose, the wool that's been pulled over their eyes. Kansas 'City Star, Quail Gyips -By Mac Smith "Know Thyself S.A.E. Junior Clark James, oft-cited by us, came through again Sunday night when, on the end of a heavy day of rush ing, he failed utterly trying to introduce himself to just one more freshman. ... "Brother" Clark couldn't recall his own name! Judas Ardent Advocator of Honor Systems Francis Fairley, presi dent of the student body during all the rumpus last year, is now a proctor, spying on cheating at Columbia!

"What paper do you repre sent?" demanded the man secre tary. "I represent the Daily Tar Heel . . . the only college daily in the South . . . except Monday and the Daily Texan!" Bud saw the boss. Let Live Lewis dorm's Ed Hamlin claims that they named the path down through the Arboretum "Senior Walk" because mention of the same by-way always pro vokes the question: "Who was that I senior with last night?"

Cracker Crunibs Down in Graham the other night Alan Knott, dormitory, manager, had gathered all his occupants together. "He was tell ing the boys (all freshmen) how he intended to serve them dur ing the year, to keep a fine store,, keep the rooms in good shape et al. . . . "Now fellows," continued Knott, "I will make the regular inspection tour of the rooms every Sunday night. . . "Does it count against you,' interrupted a meek voice in the corner, "if you don't have your beds made up?" Last Laugh Carolina men back from a night in Durham last week re ported the mistreatment of a Duke freshman by five or six Duke upperclassmen. Kidding the blue-capped mar tyr (i.e. Duke freshman), the upperclassmen finally came around to asking the little fellow his name. "John Doe," came the sullen' answer. ... The upperclassmen, irate by now, mobbed him. In the ensu ing scramble out fell the boy's wallet. Someone grabbed it and upon hasty examination found the boy's name actually to be JOHN DOUGH All a Mistake The most intrepid typographi cal error we've found recently came from a little railroad sid ing town down in RoBeson coun ty.

These quiet dis cussions will long be remem bered for their picaresque (pic turesque is becoming extant, ex tinct, and what have "you? So what?) style and freedom from censorship. At the time of his unfortunate decease, the doctor was engaged in research work for his book entitled "To Barter, or Not to Barter," or "Why Barter About Barter?" (He was an ardent knock-knocker.) . Dr. Willie Wangle, beloved (accent on the be) economist of long standing at this institution (particularly when there was no place to sit down) , expired today as the result of a classroom dis cussion of Communism, Social ism, Fascism and the law of diminishing returns. Born at an early age and reared accordingly, the doctor became interested in the share-the-wealth movement at the im mediate conclusion of a hotly contested marble game which resulted (as the dear doctor would say) "in an inhuman con centration of wealth in the cal culating clutches of a capitalis tic minority." Only occasionally did he express himself in such an unrestrained manner. He was generally the mildest and most lovable of economists (and that, my children, is a pro digious accomplishment). History of Scholar A brilliant scholar, the doctor completed an intensive three year course in six years and one session of summer school. His subsequent rise has been me teoric (to say nothing of meta phoric). An assistant associate assistant at the University since 1900, he won undying fame (eco nomically speaking) (in more ways than one) as the world's leading authority on "the boll weevil as an antidote for the law of diminishing returns." His work in this field caused an up heaval in boll-weevil economics. For his unexcelled work in the classroom Dr. Wangle re ceived the D.S.O. from the S.P.C.A. (P.D.Q.). Hismethod of discussion in class is known AreWe Becoming Educated? (By Addison Hibbard) No college educates the stu dent; but today, far more than ever, the college makes available to the student, a chance to edu cate himself. Colleges have never "given" learning; they "offer" the means for securing an education. The problem is to make the students seek an edu cationa problem to be solved by parents and by the student himself. If the spark-of fire is there it can be blown into full flame; if it is absent a college faculty can rarely bring it into being. To revert to our mechan ical metaphor, even a self starter ucmanas a live battery. C 1 v opeea liear-Shift Q U English Bicycles O Now For Hire at the Carolina Cycle Ex.
