Test Of Allegiance
, "The boys are playing football, how, interesting" is Shel
ley Rolfe's description of the expression of the student body's
support for the team at most of the pep-rallies held so far.
But we refuse to believe yet that Saturday's game in the
North is just ah exhibition of professional skill, or that the ;
members' of the team are not still inspired to fight harder
when they feel evidence of support from the student body.
& With j a deep conviction that , our trouble so , far has been
negligence-in expression of : our, enthusiasm rather than the
absence of enthusiasm, the Daily ; Tar Heel is sponsoring
tonight's pep rally and tomorrow's grid-graph session in
Memorial hall.
Tonight we learn whether our conviction is wrong. We
will know whether or not we are setting up a hollow frame
work for the expression of something that died with the Vir
ginia games of the nineties. -
Stepping Stones
Mid-term quizzes and reports are perennial stumbling
blocks for many students. They cause some painful revela
tions to students who meet the crises of examination and
discover that they simply have not acquired adequate knowl
edge of a subject or that they are unable to organize and
express the knowledge they seem to have locked in their
brains. '
Many students become chagrinned at the results shown
by mid-term exams. Some become seriously discouraged. Of
course there are many who feel quite happy about the prog
ress they've made in half a quarter.
If mid-term quizzes act as stumbling blocks, they can be
made to act as stepping stones. It depends on the student's
attitude. A poorly done quiz can discourage a student, but it
can also impress him rather forcibly with the holes he's left
in his fabric of knowledge. He can thereupon patch up the
holes. The poor grade may stick in the grade book, but the
student has "patched up the holes." That is the more im
portant thing. The student may think he knows all there is
to know about a subject. When he puts it down in little, blue
quiz books, he gets the stuff all confused so that nobody
knows whether he knows what he's talking about or not. If
a quiz can make the student realize this lack of technique of
expression, it can become a stepping stone toward better
technique. DeW. B. '
Birth Control
The fact that families in which the father and mother are
college graduates have the lowest average number of chil
dren, 1.5 per family, of any similar large group in our popu
lation, might seem to be one thing showing that Mrs. Mar
garet Sanger's talk this morning in Memorial hall is un
necessary, that the college student will know much about the
subject, and how to use this information intelligently.
But if birth control is a device for the ultimate benefit of
society, Mrs. Sanger's appearance here should be a reminder
that college , students have the burden of spreading the in
telligent view of the question - and turning what has been
learned about the subject to the best possible use.- W. K.

HE LAS
Word
, By Jane Hunter
Your scribe was faced yester
day with the alarming situation
of being 20 years old for the
first time. The shock of the sud
den realization brought forth a
bit of feverish research up in
Mrs. Stacy's office. It was gra-
tiiying to learn, alter pawing
anxiously through the files, that
of the 87 senior women enrolled
this quarter, 30 of them are 20,
and 26 are already 21. The age
19 comes a close third with 18
students of that age, and the
rest scattered between 17 and
24.
It is interesting that the aver
age for the 127 junior girls lies
between 18 and 19, but the aver
age, for seniors is two years be
hind, lying between 20 and 21.
Three juniors are only 16 years
old and six are 17.
And, according . to a hasty
comparison, the graduate wom
en are getting younger every
year. Time was when the grad
staggered about covered as ade
quately as possible beneath a
pile of books so that nobody
could see her white hair and
toothless grin. Nowadays you
can't tell the difference between
a feminine Ph.D. and a fresh
man pharmacy girl. Statistical
ly, the fashionable age this year
for the 159 graduate women is
21. There are 35 at this age, 19
are 22, and the rest are strewn
between the mileposts, of 16 and
50, with one standing guard at
each end. Privately, we are a
bit skeptical about the 16-year-old
Playmaker prodigy, since
she is a graduate of Columbia
and has taught several years.
Pete .M XL 1 l is, enterprising
young capitalist of Old , East,
wishesl to use . this . column , as a
channel for propagandizing his
establishment. He suggests that
as we book-laden , coeds plod
wearily home from the library
in the middle of the night, . Old
East, being the half-way, point,
would be an excellent place to

ment. Just stand out in the path
and yell "rete, witn your
nickel ready please, and in no
time at all you will have a choco
late milk in your mittens and be
merrily on your way.
"It seems to me," said an in
dignant senior coed yesterday,
"a pretty sad commentary on
the famed liberalism of 'the
most progressive state univer
sity in the South' that the stu
dents are not allowed cuts and
urged to attend Margaret
Sanger's lecture tomorrow."
Nearly, every coed in school is
planning to hear Miss Sanger
and few have shown any hesita
tion at all to take the class cut.

ERSONAtlTIES
By DONALD BISHOP

Big Steve Maronic is the man
with the prodigious appetite
who , fills a mighty important
place on the left side of the line
for the Carolina football team.
He; is co-captain of the squad
and would probably feel more
natural if classed as a Gridiron
Personality, but today he is de
scribed as a campus figure.
"I've eaten all my life," Steve
jokingly affirms. He weighs 215
pounds and plays a hard fast
game, and when mealtime comes
the slashing left tackle plays' a
good game at the table.
According to news bureau
sidelights on the Pennsylvanian,
Steve is the fastest man on the
team, an exceptional diagnosti
cian of tne opposing: eleven s
strategy, and a rugged and ag
gressive aeiense and 01 tense
man.

final season. Tony suffered a
severe leg injury in 1935 and
has .just returned to action this
year. Steve .is in line for All
Southern honors - this season.
Steve, Tony and George Stirn-
weiss now form one of .the snap
piest roommate triumvirates on
the campus.
"I don't have much time for
anything except football," Steve
says. He does have time, though,
to be at least an average scholar
in physical education. He hopes
to start coaching somewhere
next year.
Steve's literary and artistic
tastes are on a pretty high stan
dard. His favorite actor and
actress are Clark Gable and Si
mone Simon, and his favorite
author is Alexandre Dumas.
He is somewhat of an artist
himself, an expert at selecting
football winners. He frequently
ventures predictions on a number
of games throughout the nation
and has a nice batting average.
