With today's wars and rumors of wars spread ing insidiously over the earth, it should give us ''peace-loving" Americans pause that from little, prankish inter-collegiate "bonfires" (and the spirit they produce) mighty international confla grations may easily grow ! . ' DeWITT BARNETT. N. Y. U. To the Editor. Dear Sir: -A TWO-WAY VICTORY UNIVERSITY EDUCATION, FLIGHT FROM REASON, VANDALISM The smart crowd who dashed over to Duke and painted up the Woman's campus, tore down the Devil goal posts, and ran into the police and the Duke defense were not representative of Caro lina. They were representative of high schools and prep joints where immaturity and irrespon sibility is not uncommon to juveniles. The rest of the University regrets the un-repre sentative display of emotion and thoughtlessness of those, who under the wild excitement of the moment, went off half-cocked. Even if Duke freshmen did burn our bon-fire which is highly conjectural their showing themselves jokers made it high time we show our selves as asses, is that it? Such events as these not only threaten athletic relations with Duke, but wreak no mean havoc with our own psychology on the eve of Saturday's game. There might easily be such apology in the air by Saturday that we'll feel like giving the Dukes the ball game to make up! The great shine act we pulled several, years ago over there was followed next day by Duke's doing us up brown, 21-0. The immediate stand : the thoughtless dis charge of patriotic spirit night before last was Your readers may be interested in the follow ing editorial from the November issue of The Crisis, official organ of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It - is headed "North Carolina Does It Again. "Just for the sake of the record, The Crisis wishes to report that for the second year in suc cession the football team of the University of North Car olinaf came to New York October 9 and played against the team of New York University which has Ed Williams, 217-pound colored star, as one of its backfield men. The Tar Heels de feated New York, but N. Y. U. followers cannot advance the alibi that the Southerners weakened them by refusing to play against a Negro. This is a brand of sportsmanship which other Southern universities .might copy from progressively lib eral Chapel Hill. BULLETINS Y. M. C. A.

GLENN HUTCHINSON. 1- From The Bottom Of The Well... by Allen Merrill THE REDEEMING FEATURE OF A FIRE THAT BURNED TOO BRIGHTLY The village fire department answered a call to number five Cobb Terrace at 7:45 last night. An asbestos cover being used to control the heat from a burner caused flames to break loose in the basement of the cottage.

That his son had changed his name to "Joseph Collegian," a gentleman of re sponsibility and no little prestige. A few weeks ago somebody claimed that a loud and rollicking cheer in the football stadium had changed to a mild smile of satisfaction. Their three reasons were "Joseph Collegianism," a stu dent body growing too large for unified spirit, and professionalism, either openly or secretly, regrettable, did not represent an intelligent stu- in intercollegiate athletics. dent body; that there will be no recurrence of the thing tonight is the responsibility of all of you who will look like the fools later. And this goes, even should a few straggling Blue Devils, unrepresentative of . Duke, show up over here. Laugh their "invasion" off, for after all High School Week comes in the Spring. Letters To The Editor Over 250 Words Subject to Cutting To the Editor. Dear Sir: V : While the non-academic world whirls around in a senseless delirium howling "War, War, War!" and like an impotent gelatinous mass slides quickly towards it, Carolina students, represent ing the white tope of civilization, allow them selves to be ignited with a shockingly similar dangerous spirit of violence and emotional hys teria by the mere sight of a blazing bon-fire! "Duke did it! They came over and lighted our bon-fire! Duke did it! Down with Duke!! Yeah!'.' And with that, hundreds of students shouted, marched to the boom of a bass drum, ran brain- lessly around, migrated in crowded speeding auto mobiles to the Duke campus all without know ing exactly why! Carolina with its great tradition of culture and intellectual achievement should be ashamed that a mass of its students could so easily break loose from all civilized restraints and, reverting to the animal, run wild in the night air. It saddens or at least puzzles one that youth can get so excited, as Jay Nock puts it, "about the silly littje stuff of late parties, hip-flasks, turning ; their girls upside down," (please refer to front page picture Daily Tar Heel, November 10) and may I add, football; all the while remaining so indifferent, so lethargic to "something that really counts" say an effective Peace. (Did you Who ran and yelled around the bonfire last night, NOTICE Messrs. Fearing and Holroyd Yesterday's wish was an ab surd one. What ever made you believe that the picture in Tues day's Tar Heel was a Carolina co-ed's? after seeking a basis for your advertisement the only evidence found was in the recent campus poll where themajority of the co-eds admitted that they were in favor of more than a good night kiss. But gentlemen, this piece of evidence is easily broken down. Words without deeds is like a garden full of weeds. -Committee on Ways and Means (adv.) Wednesday night 1,500 students that gathered en masse around a hotly burning bon fire refuted all these contentions. A pack of incensed Carolina students that in vaded the Duke campus riddled these beliefs with a thousand and one holes. It is a dangerous move to point a wagging fin ger at the courageous crusaders. But probably it will be done. If the ill-burning fire was lit by prankful mem bers of our own student body, the Dukes since they are human beings too will have an indefen sible case of poor sportsmanship againsx us. Our action was merely on the basis of totally un founded suspicion. It may have been an unfortunate occurrence all- together. But it has been a long time almost too long since 1,500 marching Carolina students enkindled a spirit that blazed brighter than flam ing Emerson field. . A PLUM OUT OF SEASON, It was not many weeks ago that the nation focused a spotlight on the white robes of that old Civil War relic the Ku Klux Klan. "" ! The organization was denounced as un-American and a new Supreme Court Justice joined eight "old men" with one mark against him ' in the eyes of the nation. The following issue of the Carolina Magazine came through with a story on this current situa tion which was ranked in literary circles as "na tionally significant." It was not long after this that the Carolina Political Union announced for publication that Imperial Wizard Evans, national head of the order, of the Ku Klux Klan, would soon appear in Chapel Hill to speak before the students of the University. : 4 So two campus organs are breaking down the old adage that institutions for higher learning are isolated from the world of current affairs. The Carolina Political Union and the Magazine have even stuck a finger in national pie.
