TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1938 !BVosh.: Nominations Today Frats Deny Participation No Greek Cliques In Thursday Voting Party Heads Claim By DONALD BISHOP Wholesale denials that any fraternity or group of fraterni ties would be active in freshman elections next Thursday were vigorously asserted by Greek house leaders yesterday as re ports wildly floated about the campus that combines were being formed for cooperative electioneering. "The University party will take no. part in it," Chairman Studie Ficklen tersely declared. Student party leaders, headed by Chairman Mitchell Britt had previously washed their hands of any connection with the elec tion even before the campaigns started. Cliques On the heels of the denials, however, came rumors that va rious cliques would be active and would have slates lined up for nomination today. One up perclassman politico said that a Sigma Nu-ATO-Phi Kappa Sig Phi Delt union existed, possibly bulwarked by other Greek houses, but heads of the houses in question were quick to declare their skirts were clean. This same spokesman a fraternity man who asked that his name be withheld assured the Daily Tar HEEL'he would -place a man in the field, classed as an inde pendent. Meantime, it was almost defi nitely learned that there would be a flood of candidates named today, with many fraternity and non-fraternity factions having office-seekers on the ticket.

Cy Jones Misses Coast- To-Coast Grid Broadcast Carolina Student Scheduled To Appear On Mutual Hook-up Last Saturday The golden voice of Cyril Jones didn't represent the Uni versity on a coast-to-coast hook up " from Newark, New Jersey. He missed the broadcast. But it wasn't Cy's fault. It was just one of those things that happen. It seems that several weeks ago Wally Dunham, a member of the Carolina coaching staff, received a letter from of ficials of WOR, Eastern outlet for the Mutual Broadcasting system. The officials wanted a Carolina student to appear on the Collegiate program which the station presents every Satur day. Wally asked Cy, who hails from near New York, and he ac cepted. That Wally! Somehow Wally misplaced the letter and Cy didn't know what time the program was held. He was under the impression that the broadcast would be about 6 :30 Saturday evening at least not until after the Carolina-NYU game. But he wasn't sure. That was just the impression. So when Cy arrived in the Big ( Continued on page two ) Published Quarterly Here 'Southern Economic Journal' Has Nation- Wide Popularity Fire Destroys Colored Home Fire beginning at approxi mately 7 o'clock last night com pletely demolished a colored dwelling house owned by Less Massie, colored, and four sisters and brothers.
