O College Publishers Representative O 420 Madison Ave. New York, N. Y. CHICAGO - BOSTOR i LOS ANQELES SAM FRAHCISCO For This NEWS: RAY LOWERY o Facts Of Enrollment Hardly have curricula activities gotten under full swing when we hear again the old controversy regarding the rising population of out-of-state students here at the University. According to a survey recently made there was an increase of 900 in the enrollment of these students during the dec ade, 1926-36. The same survey showed no appreciable in crease in the freshman enrollment of North Carolina matricu latees since 1925. . If the native' population at the University is to, remain static, and the University can bear the expansion, it would seem that the emigration of well-picked students from other states is a healthy situation. But why, with a steady increase in the school's enrollment1 and a vigorous growth in our state has the number of native students remained virtually static? A recent investigation may throw some light on the mat ter. In North Carolina there are 19 junior colleges. Of this number only three are approved by the Southern Association of Junior Colleges. Every -year a large number of the high and preparatory ; school graduates come to these little schools, with promises of a "friendly atmosphere," full credit and ample accommo dations. Result: the institution provided by the State for the education of its sons and daughters is used for the sons and daughters from other states, while ours go to unapproved junior colleges. T. S. ' o Browsers' Retreat A man in shirtsleeves dropped into the office of Graham Memorial for a friendly, casual conversation with the Union's director. He said, "Why not stock the browsing lounge with something more than just philosophy books -for students to read?"; - , ,.' ' r : The visitor turned out to be Dr. Lewis R. Wilson, former University . of North Carolina librarian. His portrait hangs today in our library. As executive secretary of Graham Memorial's Building Committee, he took, and apparently still takes, a great interest in the development of Carolina's Student Union plant. , ; : ' Our campus library, Dr. Wilson recognized, is filled with excellent books of current interest. However, unlike some more modern library buildings, there are no comfortably furnished, informal lounge's in which a student can pick out of its shelf some novel or book on current affairs, can en sconce himself in an easy chair, and spend an absorbing, re laxing period with his book. ' Without trying to duplicate the University Library's col lection of books, Graham Memorial might well borrow books of current, student interest and make them available in such a conducive place for casual reading as the small lounge. This move might satisfy the needs of hundreds of students who in the busy course of daily schedules have little time to read such books, but who might do so if they were given the opportunity while snatching their moments of relaxation in Graham Memorial. D. B. o House Cleaning Stanford students held last year an 'annual junk day. Fra ternities and sororities and dormitories collected all the old clothes, bottles, and other useless articles from all over the campus, sold them, then gave the proceeds to the university building fund. , - Cleaning out the junk from Carolina's living quarters wouldn't hurt us. Fire hazards could be removed, and the . general appearance of the campus would not suffer. A little money for the building fund here wouldn't be refuse either. W.

And now Jim Joyner is beginning his term. A study of the regimes of the first three of these men would be a history of the breakdown, the rebuilding, and the coordina tion of student government and the honor system. Francis Fair ley stepped into office when the University' had just been torn asunder "by the revelation that a highly organized cheating ring had been in existence on the campus for several years. As a result, about 50 students were suspended from school, and Fairley's term of office was mainly one of cleaning house and strengthening the weakened student government. He appoint ed a committee, headed by Phil Hammer, former Tar Heel edi tor, to make an intensive re search into the philosophy and workings of the honor system. Its findings brought about the establishment of class honor councils, which were intended to make the handling of honor code violations more efficient and more equitable. Parker's Task John Parker had the task of restoring confidence in the honor system and in making stu dents realize the responsibilities it entailed. His was less a pro gressive regime than one of criti cal self-examination, correction T)f abuses in student government and coordination of student ac tivities. It was at this time that a rule was made that a majority of a class had to be present at class meetings to pass class bud gets. He campaigned for the stu dent legislature, which, however, was not authorized until Bob Magill came into office, and was against Istaff nominations, be cause he thought it would cause politics to play too big a part for Carolina to tolerate. Fairley and Parker, during their terms, tried to clarify the relationship between the student government and various student activities, too many of which re garded themselves as indepen dent of the student body, and to decide the amount of authority the student council had over or ganizations like the woman's 22CoL 23 Half an cm. 25 Right. 26 Electrified particle. 27 Not confined, 23 His was also a U.

Up until Bob MagiU's presidency, each of these groups had been autono mous with no meeting ground to settle their differences and no sounding board for campus opinion. The legislature is designed to remedy these faults and to "give the general student body more control over the above organiza tions. Ground was cleared for this by the abolition of hazing in 1936, the great improvement in the managing of student fi nances, and the establishment of the student advisory committee three students who are per mitted to study all phases of campus activities and to make recommendations to the comp troller, many of which, like screens on the dormitory win dows and mirrors over the dor mitory basins, have been fol lowed. It was MagiU's intention to make students realize the educa tive values of student govern ment both at college and in later life. The framework of the legis lature, intended to be a step in that direction, was drawn up by a special appointed committee, one of whose members was Jim Joyner. And the future of all that Fairley, Parker, and Magill have accomplished is now in his hands. Margaret Johnston Engaged To Gardiner Mrs. George A. Johnston of Chapel Hill announced last Sun day the engagement of her daughter, Margaret, to Robert Gardiner of Philadelphia, Pa. The couple will be married in the Episcopal church in Chapel Hill on October 17. Miss Johnston was a coed at the University last year. Gardi ner, who graduated from Caro lina in 1937, was a track star and a member of Delta Psi fra ternity.

CAMPUS PERSONALITIES By DON BISHOP The small blond young man you see pounding down the home stretch at Fetzer Field or down the gravel walks in the vicinity of Bingham Hall is quite likely to be Bill Hendrix, vice-president of the University of North Caro lina student body by unanimous approval. Hendrix is a track and cross country man extraordinary. He is captain of the hill and dale squad and co-captain with Bill Corpening of the track team. Last spring, just before campus elections, both political parties stampeded to the Hendrix camp to put him on their ticket for student body vice-president. At that time, he was vice-president of the Junior class, understudy to President Jim Joyner; he now holds the same relative position for the entire campus. In his cross country running, Bill seldom sees his opponents once the race has started. It seems he is always out in front He has placed first, or tie for first, in every cross country event he has entered since his .sophomore year, except one. In his first year on the team he ran fourth in one of the races. Last summer he participated in the Princeton Invitational meet, and he readily admits run ning is one of his greatest in terests. . But the name Bill Hendrix must also be associated with other phases of campus life. He has always had a great interest in student government, here and in high school at Greensboro!. There he was president of the Junior class. He is studying banking and finance here. Bill declares he doesn't go in much for the social life here abouts. However, he is president of the German club, campus dance organization. He is also president of Beta Theta Pi fra ternity. Dr. Harold D. Meyer Speaks To Freshman Friendship Council Topic Has To Do With Youth Movements In . Germany, Italy Today - "The Two Youth Movements In Germany and Italy" was the Dr. Harold Meyer topic when he spoke at the first meeting of the Freshmen Friendship council held in Di hall last night. "Hit ler will take Czechoslovakia and then Poland," Dr. Meyer stated. lie went on to tell of how the youth all over Germany met every Wednesday night at the same time and discussed various problems and also of the many other things he observed con cerning youth movements while he was abroad. W. T. Martin, president of the council, opened the meeting by reading Psalm 121. The meeting was then turned over to Francis Fairley who introduced the speaker.
