For This Issue NEWS: LAFFITTE HOWARD SPORTS: RAYMOND LOWERY Walking And Thinking The Olympic record for the 50,000 meter walk is 4 hours, 50 minutes, 10 seconds. It belongs to an Englishman, Thomas Green. We couldn't walk that fast not with our heavy brogans and corduroy pants and short winds. We couldn't walk nearly that fast. But we do get around. When a child is two years-old, walking has already been established. He has learned to walk, and will never have to learn again. When he is five years old, other reactions: love, hate, anger, fear, jealousy, joy and envy, have already been es tablished. They, too, will never have to be learned again. Some psychologists say a child's personality, when he is five years old is fixed for life. When a boy is sixteen years old, he has already estab lished reactions to most of the social situations he will meet in later life, to most of the political shibboleths he will hear, and to most of the economic inequalities he will see. His school teachers and the older members of his family talk in terms of unquestioned truths. His friends do likewise. He is soon equipped with a perfect set of opinions based on nothing but an animal memory of what he has heard. He is soon equipped with a perfect set of prejudices. When 3,000 young men, lately past sixteen, meet in a Uni versity, they bring their prejudices with them. They bring the tenant farmer's reaction to the Negro question, the Yan kee business man's reaction to "communism," and the Bap tist preacher's reaction to the Jewish problem. They bring reactions to men they have never seen, to problems they have met only in conversation, to ideas they have never examined. We know a fellow here who says he's proud of his preju dices racial, political and economic. He's a sophomore. He has two more years at Carolina. Carolina offers that sophomore courses in anthropology, in history, in logic, and in psychology. They aren't required. Carolina offers him contacts with men from the Island of Cyprus and from Red Springs, N. C. He doesn't have to know them. , : '! But if he takes those courses if he knows those men, he may realize there is nothing sacred about an opinion. F. H. Price Of Progress Not so many weeks ago the University's new $500,000 ath letic plant was opened for student use. At present, work on our $25,000 infirmary annex is pro gressing rapidly, recently contracts have been let on our new $250,000 medical building, and over in Venable the scientists supply room soon will be enlarged. , These facts offer conclusive evidence that in one way Caro lina is growing ; we are getting more and better equipment. Is the' new equipment being added to take care of more stu dents in the near future, or is the administration just im proving things for a moderately sized student body of around 3,000 persons? We like Carolina as it is. We don't want to see it go the way of some of the other universities that have developed into huge education machines lacking the qualities we want Caro lina to have. So before rejoicing too much over the addition of athletic plants, infirmary annexes, and medical centers, shouldn't we find out if these improvements are forerunners of a larger, impersonal, un-Chapel Hillish Carolina? D. S. THE DAILY TAB HEEL Paul Whiteman Forms Museum Of American Music King of Jazz To Play For Duke's Tenth Anniversary May 13 and 14 The King of Jazz, Paul White man, who will play for the Duke university's Quadrangle Thea ter's tenth birthday celebration on May 13 and 14, has recently organized the Whiteman Mu seum of American Music at W;V f liams college in Williamstwn Mass. Whiteman, school in music from early childhood, turned to dance tempos, and was largelv responsible for the recognition of this ""problem-child" among critical classicists. Interested since childhood, the dance maestro has returned, in a measure, to the classic school. The museum contains already many old organs and other in struments transported on the slave ships, as well as old manu scripts and scores which repre sent the development of Ameri can music from colonial times.

"Birdie" Bay roff and E. E. "Whizzer" Erick son, both admittedly, notoriously and profoundly professional. It is also rumored that R. B. "Bingle" Wolf will hurl for the Sox.

"I am starting a tour of the United States from this section," he said, "I intended to remain in the Tropics five years but I couldn't stay away from here that long."

George Sanford, Ned Trice, and Caro Riggsbee, Univers ity Negroes, finished sawing up the great .limb fallen from the towering old elm tree which had watched Cameron ave nue and Old West grow up beside it. Two years ago another great appendage of the old tree, which had extended far out over the avenue had been taken down when on the verge of demolishing a passing car. Yesterday morning about 11 o'clock passing pedestrians heard a groaning and a creaking from above. Then with a thunderous, deafening, noise the massive limb crashed to the ground, where the passers-by had been. SATURDAY, MAY 7 193g 8 Two New Events To Feature Week (Continued from first page) And More Bids Bob Ray, chairman of the dance committee, announced that those juniors and seniors who have not paid their class dues may get bids for three dollars.

This is to warn the Golden Fleece boys of a horrible trick that might be pulled on them 'at the tapping tomorrow night. For years now some uppr. classmen-pranksters have hatching schemes to monkev wrench one f the annual cere- . 1 monies, so aus. v tere and impres sive, at which ; eight or nine or campus reach 'their pinnacle of campus glorv. They have noticed that the audience is required to be inside Memorial hall by 8:15, the time when the doors are locked, and that little but whispering goes on for the next 15 minutes. Apparently the Fleecers are backstage, making last plans. It is then that the schemers plan to strike. They propose to hood a couple of spurious G: F. members and have them stalk about the hall, official-like, tapping lesser lights of the campus at random. There might even be a couple of for eigners or duskies planted to make the trick real mean. Well, when the honest-go-goodness Fleecers come out to get their choices, there will al ready be 15 or 20 happy tappees on the stage. Of course I could go on and on with what might happen. But it's just being fair to get the Fleece ready for anything. Alumni Expected For Anniversary (Continued from first page) president of the North Carolina Bar association ; George Stevens, president of the Alumni associa tion, and Burton Craig, promin ent Winston-Salem lawyer. Sayre Discusses Exchange (Continued from first page) reorganization. "I need not point out to you what this would mean to the South," he said. "You know far better than I that the price of cotton is di rectly dependent upon our main tenance of cotton markets abroad. Normally we are able to sell within the United States less than half of our annual cot ton production. So that every serious loss of foreign cotton markets means Southern cotton farmers and cotton workers thrown out of employment. It means loss, and perhaps disas ter, for compressors and ginners, seed and oil processors, brokers, bankers and shippers." "If there is one issue of life and death importance to the South it is the protection and strengthening of foreign mar kets for American cotton," Sayre told the conference. Dr. E. W. Zimmermann, Ke nan professor, of economics, led a panel discussion in Graham Memorial lounge yesterday af ternoon. Various aspects of in ternational trade were discussed by Dr. Otto Nathan, New York university graduate school pro fessor, and Dr. Rex Winslow and Dr. D. H. Buchanan of the Uni versity Commerce school. 5 Committee Meets The University building com mittee will meet this morning at 10:30 to hear a report on bids recently submitted for the new public health and medical school building. 7? r
