Get The Habit Trade At TAYLOR'S In Raleigh "The Show Place of the Carolinas" Correspondence (Continued from page two) II 1 J ' All inis political voice 01 tne ma jority explained the organization fully explained the set-up and purposes of ift However, I shall briefly review here for the benefit of those who failed to read the article. The party was organized because certain mem bers of the class of '39 realized that.in order to rule itself they had to organize against a well- oiled political machine. The bucking of the machine resulted in success. The slogan, I believe, was the following : "Government of the freshmen, for the fresh men, and by the freshmen." There was no hard feeling against the old party and no "mud-slinging" by the new party. They merely called upon the class to' govern themselves, and not be governed. I do the same now. Twiddle? No! Are we going to just sit by twiddling our thumbs while our class is dictated to by a few? If we work as separate groups for the same cause but without a definite leader, we shall only meet defeat, from the political bloc. The few who have based their control on the fact that the majority of students "just aren't interested in politics" will con tinue to win. It will be another case of the best defeated because there was no teamwork. They heretofore based their power on the fact: that no organization opposed them and there was no great interest in politics. Don't let it happen again! By joining the Students' Party you can carry out a majority rule and defeat the minority which has formerly held the sway of power. G. Z. Glee Club Started Opera Star Cordon On Road To Success Metropolitan Performer is Grad uate of Class of 24; Nephew Of State's First Lady Due credit must be given the University Glee club for the ap pearance of Norman Cordon in the Metropolitan Opera house The famous bass-baritone, nephew of Mrs. J. C. B. Ehring- haus admits that it was during his University years, when he was soloist for the Glee club, that he "definitely decided upon a singing career." A member of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity, Cordon grad uated from college in 1924. He went immediately to New York City where he sang in musical comedies for two years. Radio work followed, and in 1933 he made his opera debut in Chicago with the Gallo Opera company. His debut at the Metropolitan last spring was in "Rigoletto: Very favorable comments fol lowed this performance. The 32-year-old singer still considers Washington, N. C, as his only home and is "still con- vincea tnat JNortn uaronna is the greatest state in the Union. Assembly Discusses Grading System Now In Use At University Phi Men Also Vote Approval of Civil Service System After discussing the question of the civil service system m preference to the spoils system, the Phi assembly voted last night 17-6 that the merit sys tem is the better. A heated argument arose when a bill was introduced, Re solved, That the present grad ing system of the University be abolished. With Representatives Martin, Dixon, Dudley, and Crowell leading the fight for a different evaluation of a stu dent's knowledge, the question of a-substitute for the system arose. The representatives disagreed on this point, and voted that the bill be carried over until the next meeting. Speaker Pro-Tern Drew Mar tin appointed Leighton Dudley and Julien Lane to investigate the system employed at the Uni versity of Chicago and report at the next meeting, when the bill will again be discussed. Freshmen Hear Violin Recital By Dr. Swalin Music Professor Gives Notes And Explanations Giving historical notes and explanations as he went along, Dr.NB. H. Swalin, accompanied by Mrs. Swalin, gave a violin recital in freshman assembly yesterday morning. For his first number Profes sor Swalin chose "O Classate," by the Italian, Alessandro Scar latti. After this piece, with its sustained, songful style, the vio linist played the rather humor ous and impressionistic "Min strels," a composition by DeBus sey faintly reminiscent of the American Negro "cake walk,f the professor said. The next work was J'La Pisanella," a composition with a rather radi cal harmonic scheme, by Pizet- ti, an Italian modernist. Characterizing his last selec tion as a "bromide," Dr. Swalin closed his program with "Lie- besfreud" (Love's Joy), an old waltz made over for the violin by Fritz Kreisler. LOST A gold football.

Bull's Head Tea Mr. George Horner of the University English department was the guest speaker at the Bull's Head tea yesterday aft ernoon and spoke on "Collecting Items of American Humor." Statesman King Came To Campus In Early Youth Illustrious Son of University Vice President of United States Under Pierce One of the University's most illustrious sons, and one of the country's most capable states men, the late William Rufus King, came to Chapel Hill when he was but 12 years old. After graduation he set up law practice in Fayetteville and was later elected to the state legislature. He moved to a farm in Alabama when his term ex pired and became one of the first senators from that state. His health failed him and he re signed, but was later appointed minister to France. In the fall of 1853 he was chosen vice president of the United States under President Franklin K. Pierce, but sickness overtook him, and he died before entering on his duties. About six years ago President Hoover signed a bill which pro vided for the erection of a monu ment to his memory to be built in Clinton, N. C, his birthplace. Senate Has Debate On Inter sectional Football Contests Di Discusses Emphasis Now Be ing Placed on Sport The Di senate last night dis cussed the bill, Resolved, That the University should not sched ule intersectional football games. President Steele led the de fense of the bill by stating that the purpose of football has been greatly changed. In the begin ning, he said, the object of foot ball was to promote friendship with other schools as well as to give exercise to the players. He stated that this purpose has been lost in the present fight for national recognition. Aim A school is no longer recog nized by its educational facilities but by its football team, accord ing to Steele.. He added that the aim of a school is either to ad vance education or to put out a good football team. He argued that the purpose of a school is to advance education and concluded by saying that no institution had the right to ask players to go one thousand miles or more to play football when it meant missing classes. He said that it is just a case of the "tail wagging the dog." Opposition . Senator Kendrick opposed the bill by stating that there was no reason why a school should not be good in both educational facilities and sports. Senator Craig upheld the bill by saying that the football team tries to become nationally known and produce all-America players. He said that football is injurious to players because it brings bodily harm and a loss of study. It was announced that initia tion of new members will take place next Tuesday night. Dr. Beale To Discuss Academic Freedom Dr. H. K. Beale, University history professor, will open this year's program of the Southern Committee for People's Rights tomorrow at 8 o'clock in the basement of the Presbyterian church with a discussion of aca demic freedom in the United States. QUALITY MEATS WEST FRANKLIN .Delivery Service Mrs. Tack Continued from first page) show, and if anyone in Chapel Hill ever goes to picture shows, they will remember seeing this dog's sire in 'Tage Miss Glory." Mrs. Tack has some interest-1 ing and appropriate names for her dogs.. Of another Chinhua hua she said, "I named this one Charlie Chaplin because he's as funny as any clown I ever saw. Look at the way he walks around on his hind legs and tries to attract your attention." Another one is named "Sticky" because "he is much too sweet." Birds When asked if she had ever been bitten by any of her dogs she replied, "Yes, one time. He's buried over there under . that pear tree." In Mrs. Tack's cottage three of the four rooms are lined com pletely with bird cages of cana ries,- lovebirds, and parakeets. This year she got 110 more ca naries and the number is still increasing. She is especially proud of her white canaries and parakeets, and of her brilliant blue lovebirds. Because of a number of other duties, Mrs. Tack has had to neglect s her garden. Although last year she had 135 different varieties of roses and an iris field with other 500 different named varieties of iris, she does not expect to get them all again this year. Carpenter Mrs. Tack is a native of Northern New York, but came South in 1919 because she liked warm weather. Her first years were spent teaching in various North Carolina schools as she went from one place to the oth er looking for a desirable home. She finally decided on Chapel Hill because she "loves the Uni versity." The little house which she now occupies was first tak en over to be used as a vacation retreat One fall she was forced to give up teaching for a while and went there to recuperate from her illness. Trying- her hand at carpentry she fixed up the place by herself, weather boarded and painted the walls, sealed it in, and cut and framed the doors and windows.

This course would pre sent the most efficient and quick est ways to study as are outlined by modern psychologists and educators. Not all students study alike, it is true, but such a course would point the correct general way. Each individual could adapt it to his own personal method. The value of a method of study course is apparent. It should be seriously considered by faculty and administration when changes are being made in curricula. More tangible results would be realized and more real good accomplished by this one course than a dozen other less practical courses which are re quired of college freshmen. LOST Small Cairn terrier.
