FRATERNITY
TO LAUNCH FIRST
BUNDLE DAY
Phi Gamma ueiia
To Collect Clothes
For Poor Next Week
Tuesday night of next week at 7
o'clock, Phi Gamma Delta, local so
cial fraternity, will launch its first
annual Carolina Bundle day.
The object of this drive is three
fold: first, to help the underprivi
leged residents of Chapel Hill; second,
to enable fraternities, sororities, and
dormitories to clean out from the
corners of closets things no longer
used by the boys and girls; and third,
to enable Carolina students to ex
press the Christmas spirit while still
at school.
TO COVER CAMPUS
The members of Phi Gamma Delta
with their pledges will cover each
room in every dormitory,- sorority,
and fraternity on the campus Tues
day night. Students are asked to have
their bundles ready at 7 o'clock, but
time will be given for clothes to be
gathered when the rooms are visited.
To aid in the collection of the pro
ceeds of the drive, a pick-up truck
has been obtained through the coop
eration of the University. Contact for
cooperation by the Chapel Hill Boy
Scouts is being made also. After they
have been collected, the bundles will
be taken to the distributing point of
the King's Daughters, Chapel Hill
charity organization, at the home of
Mrs. R. B. Lawson on East Franklin
street, and there distributed.
CLEAN-UP DAY
It. is felt that clothes left by gradu
ating students have accumulated in
closets' of fraternity houses - over a
period of time, and that they would
like to aid the underprivileged as well
as getting rid of this accumulation.
This is the first time that any such
drive has been sponsored on the Caro-
gree of success this year, the custom
lina campus, and if there is any de-
will be continued every yaar.
CHINESE ART TO
BE ON EXHIBIT
TDaumier's Work

An exhibition of paintings of Budd
hist images by Mary Atfgusta Mulli

sel T. Smith, head of the art depart
ment, 'will make a brief studio talk
on the exhibition at 4 o'clock.
The paintings by Miss Mullikin and
Miss Hotchkis are of Buddhist sculp
tures carved in the sandstone cliffs at
Yun Kang, Shansi province in North
China. These images are the work of
the Toba Tartars who ruled North
China from 386 A. D. to 532 A. D

kin relates the experiences of the two
artists while they were in China and
briefly outlines the history ol tne lm

The lithographs by Daumier, the
greatest of 19th century French car
toonists, are caricatures ridiculing all

LOCAL STUDENTS
TO EDIT STATE
COLLEGE MAGAZINE
New Publication
Will Be Created
For N. Cs30,000
"It will be a dream ccme true"
for editor Adrian Spies and his as
sociates Ernest King, Frank Hole-
man, and Bob Doty, when the first
issue of the new magazine, "College
Town," comes off the presses early
in March. ,
All four editors have spent a long
fall working on the idea. All during
the quarter they have written to edi
tors of publications in every one of
the 35 colleges in North Carolina,
asking their aid and suggestions in
creating a publication for every one
of the state's 30,000 college students.
Men contacted on the various
campii have agreed to act as edi
tors, sending in material from their
school every month. The aim of the
magazine will be to provide a medium
for exchange and common expression
of all the various colleges in the
state, and will also offer a general
commentary of all things collegiate.
A "NEW YORKER"
Spies, and his chief aide-de-camp,
King, Buc business manager, plan to
model the magazine, published month
ly, along the same general lines as
the New Yorker as they believe that
this style is most acceptable to the
largest amount of students.
There, however, will be a serious
note as lent by articles by outstand
ing personalities in the state and na
tion. The magazine will also contain
articles in the lighter vein, pictures,
and a sports section. Plans are being
made for one of the more popular
professional sports editors in the
state to conduct this section, assisted

Your Roomie May Be Garbo's
Uncle Or Cousin Or Grandma
Blackmer's Nephew, Hardy's
Cousin, And Foran's Brother
Are All Here With Us.
By ARTHUR DIXON
You had better get acquainted with
your dorm neighbors and fraternity
brothers; one of them may be cousin
to Garbo or an uncle of Shirley
Temple. Hollywood is rather closely
related to Carolina, it seems. "At any
rate, in school at present is a nephew
of Sydney Blackmer,' a cousin of
Oliver Hardy, and a brother of Nick
Foran.
These various relatives of movie
stars consider their cinematic kins
men very matter-of-fact when off the
screen. For instance, Walter Black
mer, University junior and member
of Sigma Nu, fraternity, says that his
Uncle Sydney is, off-stage, just the
ordinary man, who likes a good time,
and usually gets it in Hollywood
night life.
Blackmer was a success on the
stage for about 15 years, then desert
ed Broadway to play character parts
in Hollywood. Apparently he could
retire, but prefers to act. He is very
active, Walter thinks, and never be
comes the joke-cracker that we often
associate with the movie colony.

The University had Sydney Black
mer here as a student for one year,

Haddaway Acts
As Head-master
Nine neophytes were introduced in
to the mysterious realms of the Delta
Sigma Pi, professional commerce fra
ternity, brotherhood last night with
the rites being discharged by War
ren Haddaway, former head-master.
Jim Williams, Benny Hunter, Dave
Judson, Tom .Crockett, Archie Foun
tain, John Dorsey, Henry Akers, Ben
Heath, and Frank Stearns were the
men initiated. After the services a
secret election was held with Hunter
being declared winner.
Plans for the winter quarter include
another business tour to some point
in the state, a possible speaker, an in
dustrial movie, and a second initiation
for other neophytes.
Haddaway, one of the founders of
the local Alpha Lambda chapter re
turned to the campus to act in the
capacity of honorary head-master for
the meeting. He is now connected
with a large insurance company in

join a fraternity that year, there is a
strange tale told by the Sigma Nus
which says that he was a secret

Walter has visited his uncle at -his
home in California and still insists
that Blackmer is not an unusual rela
tive. FRY AND HARDY
Among other things, there is in
the lower quadrangle a student who
is cousin to a 325-pound laugh. The
student is Tom Fry; the hefty laugh
turns out to be Oliver Norvell Hardy,
who is known from Everett to Phi
Delta Theta as a mirth provoker
with huge potentialities.
Tom, modest young man, claims
kinship to dear Oliver only if you
state that such is an established fact.
Then if you ask plenty of questions,
you may find out that Mr. Hardy is
spoken of, in hushed tones, as "that
versatile man"; that he is an Horatio
Algerite a none-too-rich boy who
withthe aid of the American funny
bone climbed to his position of sover
eign slap-sticker of the screen.
BEFORE AND AFTER
When young, he was relatively as
fat as he is now, and he did not take
long to capitalize on his tonnage.
Fry says that some of the first money
Hardy earned was made working for

SAPONACEOUS
SUPERLATIVES
First Returns
Of Campus Poll
Well over 50 students were made
candidates for the University's eight
1938-38 superlatives yesterday in one
of the largest one-day campus polls
to be held. Because of the number
of votes cast and the necessity of
checking names signed by each voter,
those counting the ballots last night
were unable to release final results.
Twenty-four nominees were report
ed to be heading the list of those def
initely in the running at press time
last night. However, none of the stu
dents named held a big lead.

Virginia Kibler was holding a small
lead over Molly AlbrittorK'and Lucy

most beautiful coed. Olive Cruikshank,
Elsa Winters and Virginia Giddens
followed close behind.
Mickey Warren, Jane Hunter and
Mary Wood Winslow were in that
order for coed with most personality.
Bill Malone, Mary Lewis and Mary
Peyton Hover were leading in the
most indfvidual coed race.

JUNIORS DEFEAT
SENIORS IN CLASS
F00TBALLGM1E
3-2 In First
Downs Prove
Victory Margin
By FRED BROWN
While the rest of the football world
was speculating as to the outcome of
the Rose, Sugarr and lesser bowl mix
tures, the juniors did a little bowling
themselves yesterday afternoon, and
bowled over the highly favored seniors
to take a little dignity by the margin
of one first down, 3-2. A crowd of
nine braved the elements to see the
annual classic.
, To the most outstanding player on
each team went" a gold football. As
their hero deluxe for the afternoon
the juniors unanimously chose Dante
Bering fleet-footed halfback who,
along with Zan Carver and Ken Royal,
accounted for all the junior first
downs.
A poll of the senior players after
the game showed that they favored
Ed Niven for the gold ball. Niven,
an intramural all-star halfback, threw
passes till it seemed as though-footballs
rained down from the heavens
above. . .
Though most of these aerials were
knocked down incomplete by, the ever
alert junior backs, several did find a
way into the waiting arms of eager
receivers. Shell scored one of the two
senior first downs on one of these
passes heaved by Niven, and the other
point was likewise gained by a pass
from the accurate Niven wing.
AERIAL WARFARE
Passing seemed to be the order of
the day as the jnniors presented one
of the most sensational skyward
seiges that this pair of poor peepers
has ever seen. Not content with just
a passing combination, the juniors
