Von Ribbentrop, of Germany, insisted that the granting of belligerent rights is an essential preliminary condition . for the -withdrawal of foreign volunteers from Spain. Ribbentrop said that- the com mittee could not proceed further "because of Russia's insistence on withdrawal of the bulk of for eigners before any rights are granted. '. - - r : New instructions from Moscow which were read by Ivan M. llaisky, Russian member of the subcommittee, declared the Soviets tioifld not accept present Anglo-French proposals for get ting fighters out of Spain "in iheir entirety." . ' The Anglo-French plan sug gests sending a commission ta Spain to arrange and supervise volunteer , troop . withdrawals. The hop for such a plan was lost today, however. Eight of the sub-committee members were prepared to go ahead without Soviet Russia if Moscow persisted in her stand against granting of belligerent rights to the warring sides in Spain until the "bulk" of foreign soldiers are removed.

Note: This is the first in a series of four articles in which Mr. Rabb comments on the University athletic situation in relation to alumni, athletic association, adminis tration, and the student body.) In the dormitory store we talked about the Fordham game and Ramsay Potts. "I hope they don't get any of the football players before Sat urday," Carl said. "You don't think any of the team would talk, do you? I've got some bets down on that game and I want to eat next week."

Union Carolina's 6 Big Spreads To West Coast When Pete "Little Napoleon" vey carried several Carolina students into the ball room' of the Hotel Commodore in New York City a few weeks ago in order that they might introduce the "Big Apple" to the north via the rhythm of Tommy Dor sey, little did he or anyone else have any idea as to the outcome of his brainchild. .....

Patterson Unable To Obtain Quorum For Senior Voting Class President Cannot Record Balloting; Only About 150, Members On Hand Despite several warnings by Joe Patterson, president of the senior- class, only about 150 sen iors, far less than a quorum, at tended a meeting yesterday morning in Memorial hall. ' Because of this poor attend ance, the meeting was conduct ed informally," and no votes were recorded. The proposed exclu sive showing of "Johnny John son" to the class was dropped because of the failure to pass upon -a budget. " " " Patterson intimated that there probably will be another meet ing some time next week. Why Should They? Nah, why should they? Why should they get themselves kicked out like Ramsay Potts? How they gonna find out what alumni pays what football play er, and even if they did find out, how they gonna prove he's being paid primarily to play football? Boy, I tell you those fellows down at that last Southern con ference meeting were mighty smart when they put that "pri marily" in that rule."

' Tar Heels Take Light Drill; Retire To Sanford Rams At Duke By Fletcher W. Ferguson North Carolina makes a de termined bid for a top spot in the national gridiron limelight here this afternoon when the Tar Heels play host to Ford ham's Rams at 2:30 o'clock in Kenan stadium. A crowd up wards of 20,000 is expected to witness the intersectional battle between two of the country's few undefeated elevens. Carolina went through a short but spirited drill here yesterday afternoon and then ' retired to Sanford for the night, far away from the din of pep rallies and an excited, enthusiastic campus. Over at Durham, Coach Jim Crowley worked the kinks out of his Fordham squad on the Duke field and stayed overnight at the Washington Duke. Number 6 Of Nation Ranked by Sportscaster Ed die Dooley as the numbers six and ten teams in the country, Fordham and Carolina will be meeting in one of the important games on today's schedule. The prize of victory will undoubted ly give the winner a standing in the first five. Again the "big boys" are pick ing the Tar Heels as underdogs. Probably they are justified for the Rams do have a fine ball club and there's no doubting that as can well be seen by their performances against Pitt ami Texas Christian. But then there's the "name factor" enter ing in. Fordham has been fixated in (Continued on page three) Gym Being Meet Schedule POP QUIZ By Bob Perkin . It's eight feet between two points.
