Except for election time, the names of the ten austere members Tarely appear in print. Like the United States supreme Court; the action, of the council isabove public criticism or commen tation. ;l w " . ' Yet the action of these ten men is of more cam pus importance than that of any . other student group. The success of the Honor System depends first on the attitude of the student body But secondly it depends on the student council The student WORLD NEWS Continued from first page) civilians were killed and .wound ed, and expressed -the govern ment's hope that there will be no more air raids. MR. IVEY HAS A GOOD IDEA BUT We read, that Mr. Pete Ivey proposes a "Swap Shop" in Graham Memorial. The idea is indeed timely and not a bit too ambitious for so resource ful an entrepreneur. We. feel, in fact, that Mr. Ivey has not begun to tap the plan's full possibili ties. Let us elucidate. At the approximate spot between the Memor ial's eight granite columns where last spring stood Mr. Ivey's political campaign amplifier, we shall have the intrepid director hang three gold balls, traditional of the time-honored money lenders. -V' T-l J.-J.1 " T 1 J T i- -.-.-.1,- .Degmiiiiig uiusiy we wiuiuu uavc jluju mcic-jr the campus's carelessly lost-and-found objects, but those deliberately forfeited. Surely as the traffic of lost, stolen, and pawnable goods mounts, E. Carrington Smith will see fit to locate his theater's , bureau of uncalled for goods in Mr. Ivey's head quarters. ; v Perhaps by that time all N. Y. A. funds for "Swap Shop" employees will be exhausted and Mr. Ivey will have to discover a new patron. Easy enough ! Fame of the campus center will have grown so that ice cream venders, patent medicine men, date bureau operators, and panclerers of all sorts will rent stalls near the Graham Memorial doors. ' ; , . - ; The resulting efficiency will surpass the most wild fancy of even Mr. Remington or Mr. Rand. "Swap Shop" will be the Carolina slogan of life. Only classes will keep us from fulfilling Mr. Ivey's supreme dream spending our waking day at the "Swap Shop." - V : Then the climax !V Class meetings moved td Graham Memorial ! Up in the morning, down to the student union for breakfast, lunch, supper, classes, extracurricular, and dates v. . . Mr. Ivey will not have lived in vain. , GO AHEAD ; ! WITH THE IMPROVEMENTS One chief item in the University's dormitory improvement policy concerns the 24 Negro jani tors. Along with unsettled ideas on social rooms, lighting fixtures, more furniture, and possible lavatories in each man's room, the business ad ministration has been looking at the janitorial set-up. -.'.;. '; . Uniform white jackets for the fellows who make up the student beds', clean under their chairs and tables, handle their clothes' and care for their toilets; a private bath for the colored men to use every day; and possibly a required physical exam ination periodically these seem to be the chief points of improvement under consideration. Last spring during the tipping season of the American Chemical Convention (mass meeting like that of the American .Legion in New York ; slightly different interests) the Carolina janitors smacked of real "class" and service with their little' ribbons flying on their white uniforms. The Student Advisory committee endorsed the above recommendations, and in all probability the University janitors organization would heartily approve them too. South building has the right idea; there ought to be some sort of tangible ac complishment along this particular line even now at the beginning of the next year. Money ought - not to be such a terrific block on this one matter at least. body may won der sometimes, however, whether or not the honor system is work ing. It's not easy to support a cam pus institution wholeheart e d 1 y when no results are obvious . . . especially if the institution is as all-enscoping as student- govern ment. -, Should the stu dent council have no cases, judicial student govern ment would be working perfect ly. This is too much to believe, however. But with the new student government adminis tration a new policy has been adopted . . . . a new policy which solicits the loyalty of the student body. " While the names of defendants in student coun cil cases will be kept as secret as ever, the cases themselves will be publicized. For the first time the student body will know that the student council is an active body. Yet violators would have no fear of unfavorable publicity. With campus attention focused on council ac tivity, a new interest in student government' may awaken a fresh loyalty. ' ACTION SPEAKS LOUD Out of the maze of campus organizations and activities comes the Carolina Political Union and its Farleys, Nyes, and Trotskys. So alive was campus interest in the organiza tion under the regime of last year's Frank Mc Glinn that President Alex Heard has been swamp ed with applicants for membership this fall. To cope with the situation, old Union mem bers have restricted the membership to 25. This leaves four, places open-for the horde of appli cants. Inhe line-up for this fall appear such names as Norman Thomas, Ogden Mills, Earl Browder, Senator Bob Reynolds, and Frank R. McNinch. And Leon Trotsky volunteered to leave Mexico for Chapel Hill until the United States government interfered. . NEW MOVEMENT There are nearly 3,200 students in the Univer sity this fall. '5; , To these 3,200 the University is the student body . . . . with the faculty and administration carrying on the routine duties of the everyday affairs connected with the classroom. But in between these are squeezed a neglected group of middlemen who are called the "service force." They are 106 employees of the University who carry on the very backbone of its adminis trative activities. The state is providing the student body with a new gymnasium, a .new dormitory, ana a new medical building. Even a number of new faculty members have been provided. Many University men . live in a whirlpool of social life and dances usually just mean that another week end has come. But the University service force was always "just a necessity"-that is until this summer. ; Largely through the sponsorship of Assistant Controller Rogerson and other members of the administration, "The Cabin" near the Buccaneer Club was, rented as a clubhouse for service force members. Ninety-six of the 106 members have joined already. After a summer's success of dances, bridge, checkers, ping-pong, and social activities in gen eral, the club has gained solid social footing and members of the force are provided with social opportunities equal to students. The old idea has given way. Maybe the service force is a part of the University anyway BREAD PRICES RISE TO SEVEN YEAR HIGH Washington, Sept. 23. D. E. Montgomery, consumer's coun sel of the agricultural adjust ment administration, revealed today , that retail bread prices are the highest in seven years. Winston-Salem, N. Ci has the highest average retail price in the country according to the re port. " Ivey Will Sell Any Articles (Continued from Jbst page) center" Ivey declared, "since it is agreed that one man's poison may be another man's meat. Ar ticles of usefulness and useless ness. will be determined when one brings said articles or wear ing apparel to the 'swap shop." The exchange will try to swap anything, said Ivey, who began promotion of the trade bureau after it was suggested by As sistant Controller L. B. Roger- son. "Perhaps someofcie wants it, no matter how out-of-date it may be," he stated. "Personal effects, such as fraternity pins and private jew elry will be kept secret and will get no further than the Graham Memorial pawners' boys." NYA labor will enable the service to be without cost to the parties in the swaps. The bulletin board in Ivey's office will have two columns. On the left side will be "things wanted"' and on the other side will be a column of "things for exchange." Ivey said that "Ef forts will be made to arrange deals for anyone wanting to sell for cash. No profit will be made by Graham Memorial," Ivey contended. "So any old rags or bones are eligible to be bartered for any old bottles anyone else pos sesses," Ivey concluded. i CPU Won't Pay Men To Speak (Continued from first page) Spilman of the State Unemploy ment Compensation commis sion; D.
