Seniors will have their Yackety Yacks mailed to them July 15. Underclassmen may have to wait until next September, unless the Publications Union board chooses at its next meet ing to pull from its proverbially tight jeans some $440 to cover mailing charges. According to Mr. J. M. Lear, PU board faculty advisor, delay in Yackety Yack printing was caused by "labor troubles" within the Pictorial Engraving company, annual engravers. Now Dave Thorpe was required to meet his deadline. This he did, by setting a time record of turning out copy even earlier than necessary. The implications are further reaching than the mere mat ter of the book being late : 1 Dave Thorpe and his boys' hard work toward punctual ity is thwarted. 2 Work on the Freshman Handbook will be paralyzed. This publication is entirely self supporting and is conse quently dependent on Yackety Yack cuts for illustrative ma terial. yThis means that the handbook staff will have to work far into the summer. 3 General undergraduates will not (unless the PU board donates the $440 or more necessary for mailing) get their annuals until next September which means that our much anticipated yearbook will go straight to the study desk or book shelf, unused and unappreciated without any chance of acting as a distributor of Carolina good will to our friends. 0 Purer Than Drinking Water If we can believe our eyes, and the Swimming Guide of the National Amateur Athletic Union, our swimming pool is the largest college indoor tank in the country. It contains 380, 000 gallons of water, which through the efficiency of a fil tering and chlorinating system is purified every 8 hours. During the little over two weeks that the pool has been operating, it has been tested for harmful disease germs twice every day. While the number of germs allowed for safe drinking water is 100 per cubic centimeter, the tests on our new pool have shown not more than 15 in any one test, and the majority of the tests taken have shown a zero result. In view of the fact that the water is kept as pure as drinking water, the chlorine and copper sulphate used might irritate the bathers' skins. However, tests are also made daily to determine the irritability of the water, and chemi cals are used if necessary to make it bland. Our hat is off ! 0 Lysistrata Paves Way For Peace Strikes Student groups, like our own Venidas, scattered all over the country, this week demonstrated, programmed, striked, even rioted to show the world the way to Peace. Say the demonstrators: Peace must and can be gotten by refusing to join the armies or fight wars, by signing pledges, by going to Peace conferences, by boycotts, by this and that. Contrasting with Venidas' "Pax Via," the Chapel Hill Ar tillery Troop prepares for Peace by keeping prepared for war. Some thirty, faithful members meet every two weeks -in the firm belief that military training is one form of prac tical, positive peace insurance. . Uncle Sam 'is trying a variety of ways to get and then keep Peace. Reciprocal trade treaties are accompanied by billion dollar armament appropriations. But there was one peace strike which brought results. Back in the days when Greek culture was at its zenith, a woman with ideas, Lysistrata by name, led the women of Athens and Sparta in a bedroom strike against war. To make belligerent husbands " stop fighting, the wives locked themselves in a temple, refusing to return to the arms of" their men until they had signed a pact of peace. Her strike required the men to make a choice. They de cided to make a Peace. D. B. Photography Study Will Be Sponsored By Physics Group Camera Course To Be Given At First Summer School Session A credit course, designed for ama teurs, art students, prospective teach ers and others interested in photogra phy, will be given by the University department of physics during the first summer school session, it has been announced by the University extension division.

The class will be divided into groups of eight for the laboratory program. Two groups of eight will work simul taneously, one in the dark room and the other in the studio. t Further , information may be ob tained from-the University Extension division, South building. Howison Is New Law Review Editor (Continued from first page) first must consult every bit of law they can find about the case, even to Eng lish law; then it must be submitted I to the student editor and after mak ing corrections to suit him inciden tally quite a task for the editor the work must be worked over for the faculty editor and then resubmitted to the student editor. The leading ar ticles must be checked and styled by the editorial board as must also the book reviews. Least Read Probably the least campus-read University publication, the Law Re view is one of the widely circulated. Of an approximate circulation of 1500, only about 100 remain on the campus. There is a great deal of hard work for the members of this staff and lit tle recognition. However, in the law school it is an "honor and shows the ability of the prospective lawyer. An interesting sidelight of the Re view is that there are no advertise ments in TE. It is supported by sub scriptions, any deficit being made up by the University of North Carolina Press which publishes it. Howison Howison, the incoming editor, was a member of Phi Beta Kappa chapter here and belongs to Phi Delta Phi I legal fraternity. He is vice president of his class as well as being on the Law Review staff for the past year. In interview he said, "I hope that with the cooperation of the very fine staff that the Law Review has, to be able to put out a magazine which (will do credit to the University and to the law school. I will do my best to continue the precedent set this year in getting every issue out on time." The other members of the incoming staff are: Moses B. Gillam, associate editor, and Clarence A. Griffin, Jr., book review ediior. The retiring of ficers are the following: W. C. Holt, editor in chief, J. M. Verner, associate editor, and C. M. Ivey, Jr., book re view editor. An important extra-curriculars man dressed as an illegitimate negroid off spring would be highly amusing, and just cause for a shotgun wedding. A group of distinguished athletes and scholars posing as a bridal train should be fit accompaniment for a forced wedding.

By ArRiAN Charles Spies Shanghai, April 29. Japanese forces in' Anhwei province moved north toward Suchow today. It was reported that they had almost reached Suhsein, 40 miles from the junction of the Tienstin-Pukow railroad. Chi nese troops fought desperately to de fend the strategic line. They used to call him Laughing Boy. He lived with his family in the wheat fields that run along a pretty lake in the vast land of Anhwei, of the measureless miles of China. His peo ple were poor, and their land was poor too. But they grew a little wheat and a few beans and bothered no one. And the young one played in the sun and was happy and was called Laughing Boy. One day the strange men come to the fields around his home. Their skin was white, their words were sharp. They cut his father's land with shiny steel lines, and brought a little black animal which rolled along the steel streams faster than any friendly wind that cooled Laughing Boy's black hair. The animal sent smoke up into the summer sky soon it was carrying strange men with it. Laughing Boy knew that they were foreigners who had come with the smoke and steel. Their pale and sweaty faces used to laugh at him as he stood in his fath er's fields. Sometimes they cried of a new and mighty God more power ful than all the honored Gods of his ancestors, Laughing Boy respected their God., He forgot them and their black smoke to play in the shadows of the wheat stalks. Then, months ago, other strangers came to Laughing Boy and his people. They were yellow men like them selves, but there was little sun on their sick faces. There was death in their eyes. They said that his father must come with them to fight the fearful neighboring Japanese. And Laughing Boy's father went to join a strange new chieftain called Chaing Kai Shek who was leading all the Chi nese against their enemy. There were more men riding in the black monster now more yellow men from distant provinces who had for gotten their hate to fight the hungry neighbor. Laughing Boy had been told that they were his new friends; he waved to the men and hoped they would help his father kill the Japanese. But,, he knew that the neighbors were driving on. that they were not being stopped, He heard much talk of the black monster. He learned to speak of it as a nart of the Tienstin-Pukow line He knew that the Japanese coveted the monster that they were killing his people who defended it. He saw many men crawl back through the neglected wheat fields. There was death and defeat in their sightless eyes and famished bodies. Shanghai, April 29. Japanese in vaders yesterday closed in on the vital Tienstin-Pukow railway. But yesterday his mother told Laughing Boy he must no longer play in his fields. They must run from the land which nursed the monster white men called the Tienstin-Pukow line. The Japanese who had killed his father were coming to seize the monster and Laughing Boy must flee. He wondered why the white men did not die too for their smoke and steel. But his mother only knew that they must leave their land and flee. Shanghai, April 29. The Jap anese are marching through a bloom ing land far different from the win tery fields of last February's cam paign. But as the little one marches through the forgotten fields of Anh wei he knows that he hates the strange white who brought the black monster and he hates the neighbor Japanese who covets it. He wonders why his father has been left behind, with only his blood to refresh the thirsty wheat. His mother is taking him to Can ton, to the land of Chaing Kai Shek, the new and wonderful chieftain. And Laughing Boy who laughs little now wants to be a warrior like his fath er was. tie will fight to save his land from the foreigner, and the white men who cut his play-fields and bled it, with his father, to death. Laughing Boy is growing now. He will be a wild and cruel warrior some day. A vengeful warrior who will kill the foreigners wih the same cursed weapons they brought to his peaceful lands. It would be extremely mirth-provoking to see a stellar athlete dressed as Lady Godiva, passing about the campus on a grey mare. BIRTHDAYS TODAY (Please call by the ticket office of the Carolina theater for a com plimentary pass.) Build-Up For Build-Up Many thought that Charler Gilmore (no relative of mine) should have taken either a fistic or a literary poke at me when I emphasized our quite different origins recently. Columnists should always be getting poked. An authority in New York even says a columnist is no good if he hasn't had a few beatings up. Two years ago, you remember, Winchell refer red to the pre marital life of Al Jolson. At a public entertain ment soon after, Mr. Al and Wal ter met, and the Mirror column ist almost lost his life as his head bounced off a projecting rock. Saddest case I have reoAntlv seen, however, is that of little lea .tsurger, 17-year-old gossip monger at a Spokane hirfi school, who calls his column tedburger: ground-up reputa tions." Ground-Up Reps Sympathetic with his near- tragedy last fall, I wrote him for a sample of the column which almost took his life. His twa most vicious items read, "To those who have wondered where Ned Lageson is, here's your an swer. Ned was injured in a fall from a haystack last Saturday night" ; and "It is rumored that Dick Ferrell (an ardent woman hater) is now taking a 'shinm to the women." Ted turned in his column and went home to spend a peaceful evening of 'studying. Next day he told newspapermen "some students get pretty mad" about what he writes. A bullet had crashed through a window of his home and buried itself in the wall in front of his face. "If I'd nodded they'd have had me," said Ted. His column had been, he writes, "all in fun." After all, I've been figuring, Charley Gilmore is perhaps plenty glad I'm not his brother. And I hope he feels good enough about it not to take a shot at me, even though that would make me a good columnist.
