Legislators Appear To Favor
Increase In Out-Of-State Fee
Indications Point
To Large Raise
In Appropriations
The fifth North Carolina legislative
eek ended in Raleigh with indica
tions of growing sentiment among leg
islators to provide appropriations , to
educational institutions above the bud
rei recommendations and to leave tui
tion for North Carolina residents at
about present levels. Most of the leg
islators, however, were in favor of in
creasing the tuition for out-of-state
students in the three branches of the
Greater University.
Two conflicting proposals one to
follow the budget recommendation and
increase tuition charges at the greater
University and the other to raise its
appropriations 53 per cent and wipe
out any boost in fees were made be
fore the joint appropriations commit
tee on Thursday.
FOR LARGER GRANT
Senator Sutton of Lenoir offered the
motion that the appropriation of the
greater University be increased from
the budget figure of $2,083,294 to
$3,178,885 for the next two years in
order to replace receipts anticipated
from higher tuition charges.
Sutton said his figure provided for
no jump in tuition rates but he ex
pressed a willingness to impose in
creased charges on out-of-state stu
dents at the three units of the Greater
University.
Representative Pickens of Guilford,
a University alumnus and leader of
the economy bloc, opposed Sutton's mo
tion and asked the committee to in
uca tuition and provide a $137,000
loan fund to aid needy students in pay
ing the charge.
ANOTHER PLAN
A third proposal was discussed
among a group of legislators as they
left the committee room.. This plan
would increase tuition rates for out-of-state
students, eliminate proposed
salary raises at the greater Univer
sity and effect other savings in the
appropriations.
Pickens stated, "North Carolina
cannot stand any increase in appro
priations." He favored applying the
tuition increase to all out-of-state stu
dents and to resident students who
are able to pay. "There are many
North Carolina residents who can af
ford to pay," he declared.
The appropriations committee will
meet Tuesday to further the discus
sion on the matter and will probably
reach a conclusion before the end of
this week.

Songstress Marion
Eats, Likes Spinach,
Gets Plenty Sleep
By BILL RHODES WEAVER
"Oh, yes, I do eat my spinach,"
Marion Hutton, Glenn Miller's gla
mour girl singer, smiling, said last
night at intermission at the final for
mal of the German club Mid-Winters.
" . . . And I like it very much. I
watch my diet, eat green vegetables
and fruits and get plenty of sleep . . .
or, at least, try to get plenty of sleep."
Marion, one can well see, is an at
tractive girl. She's 18, and has been
singing with the Glenn Miller orches
tra seven months. She likes her work,
preferring slow rhythm tunes and
blues to fast, jazz music.
RECEPTIVE SOUTH
"People down south have been very
receptive ... I think even more so
than they are up north. Everyone has
been lovely to the band and meThe
boys say they like the south, and par
ticularly the beautiful girls.
"College boys, and what do I think
of them? They're very nice . . . agree
able, too. And the girls are lovely,"
she exclaimed.
From an earner report, based on
pure imagination, it was said: "When
Mrs. Hutton's little gin,
a very small child, her mother made
her eat her spinach, wash behind her
ears and tie little ribbons on her pig
tails, and she did those things
GREAT THRILL
"People began telling her she had
missed the greatest thrill in her life
time. But she must wait, wait, wait
until she comes to Chapel Hill with:
Glenn Miller's Dana to b6
Mid-Winter dances of the-German club
February 3 and 4."
The odd thing about that fabrica
tion is that, though at the time it was
thought to be a tall tale, it has proven
true to the last detail. Marion says
she is "thrilled" to be here.
Marion, who sings "My Heart Be
longs to Daddy," so well, is just as

is perfect, her. manner gracious,

nyson's "Enoch Arden" with piano
accompaniment by Mrs. Benjamin
Swalin and organ accompainment by

repetition have been coming to Mrs
Schinhan ever since and with earnest
ness and insistence that she has con
sented to read the classic again.
ACCOMPANISTS

sentation has been designed to con
tonue until after sun-set. Mrs. Swalin
at the piano and Dr. Schinhan at the
organ will play selections from the im

the accompaniment is said to lend a
charming note to the. program.
Mrs. Schinhan has been widely ac
claimed for her presentations of mus
ical readings and after appearing in
San Francisco recently the San Fran
cisco Chronicle bestowed great praise
upon her work.
She was very active in the Play
makers in Berkley, Cal., and was
prominent soloist in many churches
and was often featured over radio sta
tions in San Francisco.
The accompaniments by Mrs. Swa
lin and Dr. Schinhan are said to be of
the finest and Mrs. Swalin is well
known for her accompaniments to
many of the Chapel Hill artists.
Favorable Comment
On Band Indicates
Mid-Winters' Success
The German club today is basking
in glory after giving the campus one
of the most satisfying orchestras it
has played host to in several seasons,
The Mid-Winters ended last night, and
the common comment is "Gee-but-
what-a-fine-set-of-dances" and "such-
a-good-orchestra."
Glenn Miller and his orchestra
brought high praises with renditions
of both sweet and smooth music. Their
hand-clapping and general cutting-up
reminded jitterbugs of "our own

ears. The public address system work
ed well and was not blaring nor too
loud.
The Tin Can was decorated in Du

Negress Suggests
Discussion Before
Decision Is Made
By MOPJUS W. ROSENBERG
Pauli Murray, the woman who re
cently applied for admittance to the
University, has submitted 10 ques
tions dealing with interracial relation
ship and feeling here to President
Frank Graham in an effort to obtain
student opinion on the matter, ac
cording to a Pittsburgh Negro news
paper. The Negress has suggested that
the questions be discussed before it
is definitely decided to bar Negro
graduate and professional students
from matriculating at the University.
President Graham himself is un
able either to admit or bar Negroes
from the University and has referred
the matter to the state legislature.
The questions are:
1. What is "social equality?" Is
social equality" the same as "racial
equality?" Is an inter-racial confer
ence an expresion of social equality?
2. Does the concept of democracy
include equal rights for minority
groups?
3. To what extent would "the ad
mission ox a JNegro student to tne
University of North Carolina affect
the prestige of the school?
4. What advantage might be gained,
if any, through admitting a Negro
student to classes? What disadvan
tages? "
5. If the purposes of higher educa
tion are to gam insight into social
problems, what valid objections would
white students have in admitting a
Negro student to their classes?
6. To what extent would white stu
dents be able to discuss Negroes
frankly; if a Negro were present in
their classes?
7. What conduct would white stu
dents expect on the part of a Negro
student oh the campus?
8. If the students of the Univer
sity of North Carolina are convinced
that it is unjust, unwise, and dicta
torial to admit a Negro student into
their classes, by what means can they
test this theory in real life if they
have not had the experience of a Ne
gro student on the campus?
9. What have been the experiences
of Southern white students in North
ern universities where they found Ne
gro students? Have these students
left school? Has the presence of Ne
groes in their classes hampered their
ability to learn?
10. What has been the experience of
the athletic teams of the University
