HARD CASH FOR TIN CAN TISSUE A Nearly $2,000 is spent each year at Carolina on crepe paper decorations for the Tin Can and By num dances. The average life of a single decorations job is usually about three days, at the end of which time the neat effects have been ripped, off either unoiff icially by departing dancers, or officially by the "clean up" crew. No one is profiteering off the job, as far as can be determined, for the actual cost of the crepe paper, of the fireproof kind necessary for the Tin Can, usually runs around $90 or $100 each time. The finished job regularly costs the or ganization putting on the dance and footing the bill $140, "which means that the workers who spend nearly three days pn the job split the The whole ' point is that such a lot of hard money is annually thrown away for tissue paper, green or red or blue. Carolina isn't alone in the folly, for special decorations at Virginia for ex 1 ample, have been known to run as high as $500 for a single dance week-end. No green light for Carolina, however. The Grail, for -one dance-prpducer, bears much of these costs, at the indirect expense of the stu dents who pay the script and look for the Grail "returns" to the campus. Right now it is under stood that the Order is investigating the possibili ties of reducing this item in their budget. They haven't the slightest idea of giving dances inside bare walls and underneath open steel girders, but they are prepared to consider the substitution of regular scenery, possibly indirectly lighted for changing the effects, for the perishable tissue paper. : v'" ; '' Every other dance , organization, the "United Co-eds and the Dorm council included, can easily profit by the development of a newtechnique for doing the expected decorations.

Thus it was surprising that an insignificant, tiny slip of foolscap with only seven lines of writ ing stopped us so promptly the other day.

SOME RUFFIN YARNS " Ruffin dormitory is the upper quadrangle's hotbed of swell yarns. Lots of off-the-record his tory has been made there. Any old night you can get an upperclassman down at the Ruffin store for his 10:30 stretch to tell you of the snow a couple of years ago. Na sooner had the two or three inches nestled on the campus than the boys got up a bet.. A dollar said that some body wouldn't strip and race three times around the outside of Ruffin in the cold snow. Out went a dare-devil, stark naked under the bright February moon, to do his racing. Then the spectators decided to lock the" sprinter out and have some fun. Doing the three laps didn't particularly exas perate the dollar-earner, but he promptly got mad when the betters wouldn't let him in. In fact he began to ( rave and rant and run around to keep his vital juices from freezing up. Then the prank sters, in high glee, called the police department and told them a student had gone crazy from too much stddying down in Ruffin! the program, Dean W. W.

Send home.1 the Daily Tar Heel STYLE TRENDS STYLE Why SHOULD a man pay at- tention to style? Because lie owes it to himself, to look his best. Most men look their best when they're well dressed. "Well dressed" means in "good taste" or in "Style," because . "Style" means good taste. A "Style" becomes a "Fash ion" when enough men adopt ' and wear it to establish popu lar acceptance.

' i ' THE HOWELLS HAVE FUN Mrs. A. C. Howell was pouring tea at the Bull's Head last Tuesday just "before her English pro fessor-husband was to speak. "Do you know him? Is he interesting? Should I bother to stay and listen?" asked a strange lady. "Yes, I think so,' rallied Mrs. Howell, "You see, he's my husband. . . . Which promptly reminded the victim-hus band of a swell yarn for the G. O.

In trudged a burly man, seated himself next to- the secretary's wife, and waited. The speech was hardly underway before the- burly man began growling disapproval.
