' Ni l 1 THE FIRST CAMPUS VOTE OF THE YEAR TODAY Today the first general campus vote of the year will take place, with ballots being cast in the lobby of the Y. M. C. A. j Addressed to the members of the Publications Union (fee payers), the ballot slips read: "Do you favor the establishment of a student owned and operated radio studio to be administered by the Publications Union oh the same basis as the other four Publications (it is understood that this will mean the allottment to the studio of a portion of the $6.90 publications fee now authorized by the Publications Union.) Answer yes or no." Before your ballot is cast, you should be aware of two points (1) That a radio studio is different from a radio station in that it does not broadcast per se, but rather via other stations. (2) That if a majority of the 800 voters are favorable, it does not cinch the fact that a studio will be estab lished. Rather it grants them the power either to do so or not to do so, according to their discre tion. -. ., :; " ' .- - "': If you are not sure of some detail, it will prob ably be explained in the plans Milton Hogan, en thusiastic proponent, appearing in the Daily Tar Heel Sunday and Tuesday. - The outcome of today's vote will probably give the council a fairly clear picture of how the stu dent body in general feels about the difference in "rebate" and "reduction" of student fees. amination. Which means that America is so psychologically tuned that, especially in trouble some times, we the people would likely believe anything we heard repeated enough times any thing at all, and particularly jingo that we might emotionally want to believe at the moment. A HINT OF THE OLD DAYS The Phi Assembly and the Di Senate crashed into a three column lead yesterday when Senate President Dave Kerley and Treasurer Bill Coch rane resigned their offices as the result of a fi nancial mix-up over the Di-Phi dance. When the campus centers attention on the two organizations, it is rare. And this time public in terest was pivoted around individual members rather than the organizations themselves. x For it cannot be denied, as a truism, that the Phi Assembly and the Di Senate are in a state of evolutionary decay as organizations. There was a time in University history when they were the ruling bodies of , the campus, but with the new era -in student government, their power has been re moved. More than just the shell of their power re mains, however. They have changed, from legis lative bodies to,' forums for constructive student discussion. Sophs To Try To Pass Budget (Continued from first page) consume the entire half hour. Sponsors of the budget wish to reiterate the fact that there will positively be no class dance un less the budget is passed. Only 50 sophomores were lacking for the necessary quo rum on Tuesday morning. Me morial hall and the budget will welcome every sophomore this morning at chapel period.

The number of athletes the dormitories can accommodate is as yet unknown. If anyone in town will be able to volunteer rooms for Friday and Saturday nights, they are requested to get in touch with either Jim Balding at 4161, or Mr. Hinson at 7731 today. Exiled Rabbi Here Friday WORLD NEWS USING DR. PRINZ TO MAKE SURE "IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE" Dr. Joachim. Prinz, the foremost spokesman for German Jewy under the Hitler regime, a scholar and an orator, will visit Carolina tomorrow on the invitation of the Hillel foundation. Although the Nazi Ambassador who spoke last week virtually refused to discuss the treatment of the Jews in Germany, we as students and Americans are constantly shown in the news papers how the trick of Anti-Semitism is being used in foreign countries 1 to assist "groups of force" in their rises to power. But the value of hearing Dr. Prinz tomorrow goes beyond the quieting of our natural curiosity to near the Jewish side in a far-away incident we should welcome the opportunity to examine this characteristic symptom of the internationa epidemic of Fascism so that we ourselves, should the symptoms appear m this country, will know how to handle it.

Farraris put up the following question : "I have a certain amount of money. If you give me dollars for cents and cents for dollars for the-amount I have, I could buy a $79.20 second. hand car and still have left the amount I now possess. How much have I?" No one seemed to know and Farraris would not tell. Can you solve it? - Answer to yesterday's quiz: ! The hare can make 700 jumps be fore the hound catches him. The hound's 3 umps are nine-sevenths as long as the hare's, but he makes them only five-sixths as fast. These two fractions multiplied together give 45 seconds, so " that the hound gams three hare-jumps every 42 hare jumps. The hound has 50 hare-jumps to gain. The hare will evidently have time to jump as many times 42 as three is contained in the 50 vet to be gained. This gives 700 jumps. If you want to go into further details see if vou can decide whether the hound will be at the end of a jump when he catches the 'hare. (Continued from first page) deal with the charges concern ing the "Alleged Jewish Stab in the Back"; that Germany lost the World War because of the activities of its Jewish citizens; that the Jews dominated the eco nomic and political life of Ger many; that the Jews were part of an international Jewish Marxist conspiracy. These pre sumptions have been fed to Nazi Germany by the Hitler regime, and Prinz will attempt to refute them as untrue propaganda. Berlin Pulpit After a brilliant scholastic career at the Universities of Breslau and Berlin and the fa mous , rabbinical seminary at Breslau. Prinz was called to a Berlin pulpit in 1926. There, as the youngest rabbi in Berlin his tory, he achieved an immense popularity. Simultaneous with his com munal activities he wrote exten sively in the fields of history, essays and belles-lettres. Be coming one of the most widely read Jewish authors in Ger many, his books reached numer ous editions. H Prinz assumed a new role with Hitler's ascension to pow er. The first reply to Nazi alle gations against the Jews was Prinz's now famous book, "Wir Juden" (We Jews). It was a political volume dealing with the Jewish problem which won the respect of even certain off i cialsj)f the Nazi government. Becoming a fearless thorn in the side of Hitler Germany, Prinz was frequently arrested and molested by storm-troopers. In the years since Hitler came into power Prinz was the actual eider of German Jewry. In 1936 his passport was seized and he was told that it would be returned only when he left Ger many. Thus he left Germany for America "the land," he says, "where the Jewish future will be determined." (Continued from first page) John J.s Pershing was definitely better. The war leader was taken yes terday from his hotel quarters to' a sanitorium, where he was given a thorough examination. General i Pershing has been ill more than a week with a heart complication and rheumatism. Last night he suffered a sud den relapse which caused con siderable anxiety among friends here. His doctors reported that the condition of his heart was "en tirely satisfactory. Only eight of the twenty Ha waiian islands are inhabited. , On The Air 7:30 "We (WHAS). 8 :00 Kate th e People Smith with the Ted Straeter Chorus and Jack Miller's orchestra.

"Sharecropper" Tonight At 8:30 (Continued from Page One) vis, who directed the play, de clared that "It would cause a real riot in either a conservative white place or before a Negro audience." - Of Contemporary Interest In view of the present legis lation agitation concerning lynching, the play is of contem porary interest. Howard him self, speaking of the lynching in nis play, stated that: it is a sore on the surface showing the bad blood underneath. In pre senting what is "underneath" namely the struggles of the sharecroppers the author has taken no sides. He has written a "study of human beings caught in the midst of a social problem," and leaves a decision and a solution to his audience. Because of the many obvious high dramatic points in the play, Director Davis has had difficult work with his cast. But, after two dress rehearsals, he pro nounced his players fit. "They just have to be ready, that is ,how things are in the show busi- ness. From One-Act Play The full-length production which plays at the Playmaker theater tonight is an enlarged version of Howard's successful one-act "New Nigger." "Share cropper" deals with the author's original ' theme at greater lengths.

Class dismissed Mr. Spearman, Frontiersman Another professor in the week's news : Walter Spearman. The youngish journalism proff wandered into the Bull's Head Bookshop, called for "New Fron tiers of the Mind" by the Duke psychologist, Rhine, considered himself lucky to find it in, and wandered out. That night the blushing newly-wed read a few pages then flipped hastily back to give the book's jacket another look. Inside the "New Frontiers" cover they had given him "Sex Life of An Un married Adult." Column Forward- BIRTHDAYS TODAY (Please call by the ticket office of the Carolina theater for a com plimentary pass.) Hugh Bennett Beasley. Kathryn Gillespie Cushman Muhammadan chronology be gins September 20, 622, the date of the flight of the Prophet from Mecca. Henry Nigrelli tells me that The Carolina Lea gue for International Co-operation is getting a program underway to publicize collective action for peace. Congratulations. It's time students dispensed with some of their precious apathy ani became more interested in the prospects of their being used as cannon fodder in the near future. Add to this the Venidas group and it begins to look like the campus will see a lot of peace activ ity this spring. Out of it all should grow some thing bf a permanent campus peace committee with a definite program of action. At least it is hoped that this will be one' of the results. All we have to show for the last war are a lot of gilt edged securities and a depression. Of course the Morgans managed to retain something a bit more tangible. r - - The isolationists, noting that we held the bag last time, are hoping that somebody will now hold the bag for us. Meanwhile the more immediate matter of stopping the present ag gressions and preventing a general conflict seems to have slipped their minds. - - - This is one of those instances were selfishness won't pay. We've been accustomed to selfishness so long we're too blind to see there isn't any future in it. It's 1D letting a person bore a hole in his part of the boat because you're in the other end. Tonight comes Fred Howard's "Sharecropper, a "must" on your local playgoing list. The former title "Let None Cry Peace" was more militant and suggested more in the way of idea and thought We'd still like to know why it was changed and by whom. Nevertheless it's interesting to note that at least one of our student playwrights can find something important and social in folk drains something that may stimulate thinking. - - - or a long time the matter has not been with the Playmakers, but with the Playmakers' W' wrights. Wnat a vacuous existence they lead, to judge from what they produce ! Senator Bailey and company are successi continuing the filibuster against justice. This a time when democratic license is preventing tual democracy. It also is indicative of what & be done in the future when a minority wishes i prevent the mandate of a majority. The pects are none too encouraging. However there 3 some hope.
