Speaker Declares
Communism "Can
Happen Here"
Describing Communism as a fatal
plague which is eating and gnawing
at the heart of humanity, George H.
Derryt widely known anti-Red
speaker and prominent Catholic lay
man, last night appeared before a
large crowd in Hill hall as the
second Carolina Political union
speaker of the year.
Dent, director of the Knights of
Columbus department of social edu
cation, frequented his address with
the warning that "It can happen
here !" inf erring that what he called
atheistic Communism should be
taken more seriously than it has
been taken heretofore in this coun
try. The speaker declared that "The
class struggle has produced newer
and more obnoxious class diffusions,
and the only group which has been
benefited at all by the Russian revo
lution are the party bureaucrats and
job-holders. But they have purchased
their precarious prosperity by the
craven and servile surrender of
every form of freedom that civilized
men have always revered."
Derry accused Communist workers
in this country of kindling throughout

Margaret Edwards
To Talk To Chapel
Hill Club Today
Miss Margaret Edwards, head of
the home economics department of
WCUNC, will speak to the Chapel
Hill Community club at its meeting at
3:30 this afternoon on "How Business
and Government Can Help the Consumer-Buyer."
The United States government
saves nearly $1,000,000 a year by
purchasing through strict specifica
tions all goods for its manifold depart
ments, such as office supplies and
army and navy equipment. The gov
ernment supplies expert inspectors to
the manufacturers and producers who
request this service of them for the
inspection of their products to see
that they are up to specifications.
There is no dependable system of
standardization or of informative la
belling in general use. Miss Edwards
will recommend the standardization of
goods and labels so that the con
sumer and buyer can know what he
is getting. It is necessary to know
about the possibilities of informative
labelling so that every one can help
in creating demands for this aid to
intelligent buying. ,

UNIVERSITY CLUB
RESPONSIBLE FOR
NOVEL PROGRAM
Band Will Feature
New Pep Song From
Bob M'Maneus' Pen
With the University club's sky
rockets zooming into the night and
bombs bursting in the air, a glittering
galaxy of fireworks will provide
plenty of color and noise at a most
unusual pep rally tonight beginning
at 7:15 in Memorial hall.
Discarding the usual procedure of
pep rallies in the past, the club has
planned a novel rally which will be
conducted much like a community sing
featuring Carolina songs old and new.
The glee club and the University band
will be on hand to add support to the
musical atmosphere.
As an extra added feature, a new
Carolina song will be presented for
the first time in public. Bob Mc
Manus, president of the University
band, has dug down, deep into his bag
of musical tricks and come up with a
new song, "Carolina Victory March."
In addition to the singing of this
new. ditty,, such musty ballads! as
"Split It for the Team," "Here Comes
Carolina", and. "The Song of the
Cheerios" will be revived and sung.
Pat Patterson, head cheerleader,
will be present to lead in a few yells
as a parting shot to keep up that
Carolina spirit that will wreck those
engineers from Blacksburg Saturday.
Words to McManeus' song "Caro
lina Victory March":
ThereH be a Ca-ro-li-na victory
When cross the field the foe has fled,
Let's cheer the team to victory
For we are Tar Heels born and bred.
Rah! Rah! Rah!
Glory Glory UNC
Our hearts will live with thee.
Fight Fight Fight the blue and
white
Are rolling to victory.

WoodHouse Determined To
Carry Fight For Democracy
From Saunders To Congress
SHORE ACCUSED
OF SELFISHNESS
BY WARDMAN
Statement Addressed
To Frosh Who
Want Democracy
Stubborn as the Rock of Gibraltar,
freshman politics approached another
fervent stage yesterday following recently-elected
President Bill Shore's
announcement of various class com
mittees.
- Active in the 1938 first year cam
paign which proved to' be one of the
most heated in years, J. B. Spilman
issued the following statement im
mediately after Shore's committees
were made public:
"This statement is directed to the
freshmen who believe in representa
tive government.
"In the past election 44 per cent of
the voters expressed their favor for
the losing candidate. When the gov
erning committees were chosen, Bill
Shore completely omitted any man
known to support or even vote for
his opponent. You elected him on his
promise of adherence to democratic
principles' and not" as an advocate of
the spoils system. He has completely
ignored a large element of the class
and has shown that his primary in
tention is to set up a 'political ma
chine with which to control future
elections.
CHAMPIONING DEMOCRACY
"No true believer in pure democracy
can stand by and allow the entire
class to be used as a means to an end
by a few selfish politicians.'
"Bill Shore promised a square deal
for. the freshman class. He proved by
hist first official act that he has no
desire whatsoever to keep this prom
ise. Never before has a freshman
president so completely disappointed
his class mates."

Professor Claims
Group Should Have
Named Barker
From 211 Saunders to the hall of
Congress is a considerable distance
but that is just how far Dr. E. J.
Woodhouse says he intends to carry
his quixotic battle for democracy and
election of Oscar J. Barker over Carl
Durham.
The political science professor said
that he "questioned the democracy of
allowing four men to choose a candi
date and overlook the wishes of 15,-
700 voters. Although I haven't closely
studied the state statute that permits
this situation, I am inclined to doubt
its legality and most certainly ques
tion its fairness.
"The only reason that I have been
able to find is that Barker is a Roose
velt man and that the anti-new deal
Bailey Democrats advised the commit
tee against his nomination."

Shepler Completes
Three Paintings Of
Chapel Hill Scenes
Dwight Shepler, the noted Boston
artist, has just completed three pic
tures that should be of special inter
est to residents of Chapel Hill, stu
dents or townspeople, for included in
his current exhibition of water-colors
at Person Hall are scenes of much
local color.
The first of the three pictures is
in the vicinity of the Old Well en
titled Campus; the second is of a ca
bin on the Hillsboro road; and the
third named Windy Hill characterizes
part of the negro section of town. ,
The picture, Campus, is particularly
pleasing because of its colorful repre
sentation of such familiar sights as
the Old Well, South Building, and
other university landmarks. The na
turalism of the buildings, the hurry
ing students plus the mellow light of
a four o'clock sun make a startlingly
real composition.
After November 1 Mr. Shepler's
work, including the Chapel Hill folio,
will be moved to galleries in New
York. There at Radio City, where visi
tors come from all over the world,
Chapel Hill will be well represented.
Natives of every nation will have the
opportunity of seeing the Chapel Hill
paintings along with the rest of 'Mr.
Shepler's work.
These pictures will be for sale and
consequently an American traveller
may one day see our South Building
represented in Bombay, Berlin, or
even South Milwaukee. At least, men
tal pictures of our local scenes will
get around. -
