Although the following is believed

At Banquet Meet
"The most malignant virus that in
fects the world is war," Dr. M. J.
Rosenau, director of the Public Health
department of the University, told
scientists attending the meeting of
Sigma Xi in Phillips hall last night.
"We have a serum and a vaccine to
prevent it. It is cooperation and good
will to men. To achieve this end, we
must have a brotherhood of man and
God," the noted doctor said.
In speaking on "Immunity," Dr.
Rosenau described it as "the funda
mental property in life, the foundation
of preventative medicine." Many of
the great triumphs," he asserted,
"have been made in the control of dis
ease through immunitization. Ex
amples are diphtheria, typhoid fever
and smallpox.

Board Declares

Possible Use Of
Ground Floor Will
Be Investigated
The Graham Memorial board of
directors decided today that to install
a "night club" in the banquet hall
on the second floor of the building
would be impractical. However, a
new committee was formed to investi
gate and turn in a report on the pos
sibility of using the ground floor of
the building, which space is now oc
cupied by the game room.
The Graham Memorial board of
directors decided today to send Bob
MagQl, director of the Student
Union, to the annual convention of
the Association of College Unions
to be held in Minneapolis Decem
ber 1-3. Magill would keep the
board informed of happenings by
direct wires.
The game room would be discard
ed, the kitchen enlarged, a soda foun
tain installed, and the room redeco
rated in the manner previously sug
gested, following some theme such as
the collegiate idea. The room would
be utilized as a cafeteria during the
day and the "night club" in the eve
ning. ,
ASK STUDENT OPINION
The board is interested in sound
ing out student opinion on the re
spective values of a game room and
an enlarged cafeteria and . "night
club." It is possible that the report
will be submitted to the newly
formed student legislature sometime
after Thanksgiving.
"The members of the newly-formed
committee are: Skipper Bowles, Sam
Morton, Bob Magill, and Felix Mark

By SANFORD STEIN
Every night at 10:30 or 11 she
strikes. With set face and unsmiling
lips she silently stalks the living
robin of the Shack, mechanically and
unfeelingly turns out the lights one
by one, and brusquely flings open
the outer door with a "never darken
my doorstep again" look in her eye.
And herein, despite all rumors to the
contrary, lies the true reason for the
formation on the campus of the "So
ciety for the Extermination of Lil
lian Howell."
Lillian, in short, is the young lady
whose job it is to see that no mem
bers of the male sex hang around the
interior of Spencer hall after closing
hours. She is really a kind person at
heart, quite sociable and pleasant,

NBC And CBS Will
Broadcast Speech
Here December 5
University President Frank Porter
Graham will introduce Franklin D.
Roosevelt when the chief executive
speaks here December 5 at the third
anniversary celebration of the Caro
lina Political union. Previous to Dr.
Graham's introduction Governor Clyde
R. Hoey will welcome the expected
15,000 visitors to the campus and
state.
Dr. Graham was chosen by the CPU
to present Roosevelt because he has
served on several presidential advi
sory committees and has long been a
personal friend of the President.
NATION-WIDE HOOKUP
Both the National Broadcasting
company and tne Columbia .Broad
casting system have notified the union
that they will definitely allot at least
one-half an hour of radio time from
4:30 to 5 o'clock for the President's
speech, which is expected to contain
some reference to the administration's
legislative plan for the coming Con
gressional year and some suggestion
regarding the present economic posi
tion of the south.
It has been estimated by union
Chairman Voit Gilmore that probably
$1,000 will be needed to finance arrangements-
for the President's visit
here December 5. The group's finance
committee has prepared a budget
which reveals a need of extra hun
dreds of dollars for special items, in
cluding printing, transportation, cor
respondence, and banquet arrange
ments. CONTRIBUTIONS
Two campus organizations, the
Order of the Grail and the Interfra
ternity council, have contributed to
the union's finances since the an
nouncement that Roosevelt will make
an address here. Already the Univer
sity administration Has cooperated in

DEBATERS TO VD
FOR TEAM POSTS
Dartmouth, Alabama
Stetson Scheduled
Tryouts for debates between the
University and Dartmouth, Alabama
and John D. Stetson universities will
be held on Sunday and Tuesday nights
at 8:30 in Graham Memorial.
Topic will be the Pi Kappa Delta

for the stimulation of business.
North Carolina will take the nega

Tuesday. The spring trip this year
will probably be a southern trip, per
haps to Porto Rico.

ent from any other attractive coed.
But Lillian's position forces her to
act ruthlessly and without mercy,
and many pleasant conversations,
piano concerts, and ' other forms of
social contacts have been broken up
by her interference.
DOING WHAT?
"Most of the boys respond very
well, though," said Lillian. - "They
rarely make any fuss about leaving.
Sometimes, however, when I turn out
the light, they just keep right on in
the'' dark doing what they were
doing. Then I have to come back and
bid them a special ? goodnight.
"The only real trouble I ever have
is when the boys insist on playing
the piano after 8 o'clock, which is
against the rules. Sometimes I have
to call Miss Lee and that stops them.

ahead of time, but frequently I can't
