leaders
Without efficient leaders this
student body, with all its intri
cacies, cannot function proper
ly. Likewise, campus officers
without thorough training can
not be expected to take the part
of these self-same 'efficient lead
ers. "
With this thought, the Stu
dent council has instituted a re
volutionary idea, the Campus
Government conference, set for
May 15-19. To be successful this
conference must have the active
attention and participation of
each newly elected student of
ficial. ' '
One of the primary purposes
of this training session is to pre
pare these officers for the part
they will take in freshman orien
tation next September. This
point cannot be stressed too
much, because training . in the
theory of the University's Honor
system depends greatly upon
how well it is explained during
the week of pre-college orienta
tion. That we have here a f unction
s ing honor system is our pride
and joy. It is one of the finest
attributes of the University. But
the system must be kept aggres
sively alive, not allowed to take
even a short nap. During orien
tation week, if the counselors do
not stay on their toes, it would
be very easy for something? un
wanted to creep into the scheme
of things and deal the honor
code a knockout blow.
This knockout blow would be
in the form of a class untrained
and uncorrelated to the system,
a cancer which would and has
been hard to eradicate.
This paper therefore endorses
the Campus Government confer
ence, especially the part dealing
with the Honor system. The
system is far too valuable to risk
abolishing it. The best accident
insurance is adequate training
of campus leaders and, through
them, the class of '43.

sessor of numerous degrees for
attainments in scholarship and
an experienced newspaperman,
he has exposed himself to the
vicissitudes of life in the raw.
. He saw service in the news
paper , business back in the rol
licking days of 1912 on the New
York front. In the World war
he found himself on the battle
front as a second lieutenant. As
a participant in peace negotia
tions and later as an economist
for the United States govern
ment, he gained more of the in
sight and experience that quali
fy him to speak to an audience
about to launch into the world.
The senior class is fortunate
in having John Temple Graves,
II, as its commencement speaker.
More than 400 persons will cast
off the friendly ties of college
life to take their places in the
"outside world." In this time of
strained international relations
and hectic domestic conditions, a
"man-of-the-world" is best quali
fied to give advice and wish gra
duating students bon voyage.
no doldrum
The baccalaureate sermon dur
ing commencement week com
ing between final dances and the
actual commencement on Tues
day night is often considered
the inevitable doldrum of an
otherwise pleasant week-end.
This year's seniors are lucky,
however. They will have a bac
calaureate address, but with Dr.
Wyatt Aiken Smart to deliver
it. And they can look forward
with pleasant anticipation to this
part of the program.
Dr. Smart received his educa
tion at Vanderbilt university,
Union Theology seminary, Sou
thern Methodist university, the
University of Chicago, and Wes
leyan university. He is now a
member of the faculty of Emory
university, where he is professor
of Biblical theology.
We predict without qualms
that a man as well-educated as
Dr. Smart will be able to offer
not only valuable, but interest
ing suggestions on Sunday morn
ing of commencement week.
THE ls30
CLASS
By SANFORD STEIN
The combination of Emily Bronte,
Samuel Goldwyn, Ben Hecht and
Charles McArthur may at first glance
seem like a nightmarish impossibility
or at least a tragedy of modern art.
But "Withering Heights" (Sun. and
Hon.), one of the fiinest and most
beautiful pictures ever . to come out
of Hollywood, proves that this cine
matic quartet (Emily, we regret to
say, is quite dead, but since she wrote
the story, it may be safely said that
she had a finger in the pie) had lit
tle trouble in working together har
moniously. EMILY GOES TO HOLLYWOOD
As a novel, "Wuthefing Heights,"
set in the weird, haunting English
moors, was a tale of grim, wild, un
relieved passion and tragedy, an ac
count of two half -barbaric creatures
who loved each other so intensely that
it not only destroyed them and those
with whom they came in close con
tact but also thoroughly shocked the
"Victorian reading public who would
never admit that sex is fundamentally
a primitive and physical force.
In transferring it to the screen,
Hecht and MacArthur have retained
all the story's violence and power and
kept closely to the original plot,
changing it only to tighten the main
theme, eliminate extraneous charac
ters, and modernize some of the rather
archaic dialogue. In fact, the pic
ture's slow pace, concentration on psy
chological reactions and. complete lack
of comedy may prove too heavy, too
morbid, and too monotonous for many
people.
GOLDWYN HITS THE "HEIGHTS"
But in the matter of cast, direc
tion, atmosphere, photography, noth
ing has been stinted. Merle Oberon,
Lawrence Olivier, Geraldine Fitz
gerald, David Niven all give splendid
performances-and Samuel Goldwyn
once more demonstrates that while he
may murder English prose in his
speech, he is a master at putting it
on the screen.
"Zenobia" (Tues.) is chiefly notable
because it presents Oliver Hardy
minus Stan Laurel, the latter's mari
tal and alcoholic life having inter
fered somewhat with his work and
necessitating his replacement by
Harry Langdon. Concerned with a
medicine man and an elephant (sorry
to disillusion you, but contrary to the
ads, that's who Zemobia is), the pic
ture is thin and mildly amusing very,
very mild, almost to the disappearing
point.
GIVE ME MILK STRAIGHT
The story of the fearless, two-
fisted and two-gunned he-man who
cleans up the corrupt conditions in a
Western frontier town has been done
hundreds of times before, but rarely
with as much gusto and sheer physi
cal action as in "Dodge City" (Wed.
and Thurs.). Boasting a good cast,
an historically authentic background
and one of the best "knock-down, drag
out" bar-room fights ever filmed, the
picture is swift and exciting enough
to keep a not-too-critical person from
realizing that it's just the same old
melodramatic hokum until the hero
has wiped out the last gambler and
clutched his beloved to his manly
bosom (here left frequently bare so
that Errol Flynn's physique can be
seen to best advantage).
Flynn has two heroines in "Dodge
City" Olivia da Havilland, the vir
tuous patrician who appeals to all
that's noble in him and Ann Sheridan
(her next pictures are "Naughty but
Nice" and "Oomph Girl"), the invit
ing cabaret singer who appeals to all
that's human in him.

ECHOES
From the
Fourth Estate
By LAFFITTE HOWARD
Once upon a time a little Dutch boy
stuck his finger in a hole in a dyke and
stopped a - flood and became a hero.'
Motivated by a rosy-hued soul and
probably a hangover, a Spanish knight
broke his lance jousting with a wind
mill. He became a hero too, even if
brain baby of Don Juan Miguel Cer
vantes. Ever and anon the WPA does things
as foolish but the aren't heroes,
they're just dumb. Well maybe theyve
got hangovers too, but libel laws
being what they are etc. etc . . . Any
way, for weeks and days Alumni build
ing has been fenced off every morn but
come eventide and beer drinking time
fences across main lines of transport
have been battered and taken by storm.
It has been reliably reported that some
of the more adventureous two-by-fours
have followed students home. Now a
piece of lumber isn't what students
want to take home with them at night,
is it?
"Just among us girls," as Skipper
Coffin would say, would it not be much
more to the better interests of this
great and liberal University if walks
remained unimpeded and WPA work
ers stayed in buildings, sleeping in the
sun might give 'em a sunstroke or
something.
Johnny Williams lost both arms one
day but that didn't stop Johnny and
last; September he came to Carolina.
Last week Lewis dormitory elected
Johnny vice president, but Johnny will
be a sophomore next year and not eli
gible for the job. Still the honor re
mains. To those whom the lower quad
rangle has marked as "dam good boys"
let no man fail to respect.
Take an editorial Before this
school can be safe for non-varsity,
amateur tennis players a bunch of
bickering high school brats must be
taken out and shot down like dogs.
Two lordy seniors stroll forth lux
uriating in the ease of classless morn
ings. But spindle-shanked young
sters romp over all clay courts. They
start to play on one of the two concrete
courts only to yield before an advanc
ing, mob of freshman engrossed in Hy
giene 3. They moved to asphalt courts
a summer sun had softened to near
jelly .Balls bounced feebly and with
no sense of direction.
Disgusted they went back to dor
mitories. Muttered one, "Take an
editorial. ..."

Daily Tab Heel
Dear Sir:
"A Faculty Member" voices bis dis
pleasure at the paucity of student-
extended invitations to faculty mem
bers and charges it as the responsibil
ity of the students that certain pro
fessors were not "dated" on Student
Faculty Day.
Before this person who is pleased to
call himself "A Faculty Member" so
impolitely became divulgative about
his social disappointments, it might
have been well had he looked over his
POU STO. He should have tried to
see whether there were anylogical rea
sons why a polite faculty member
would not have been flooded with these
luncheon invitations.
There are many reasons some pro
fessors lunched at home. The great
est is perhaps the lack of companion
ableness in certain of the neglected.
Second, some students regard the
"date" as an ingratiating act and it
is. Since this is not Utopia and things
(meals included) must unfortunately
be paid for, many students do not have
the necessary two dollars for two good
steaks.
And there are some professors who
say that a course in manners should
be given here at the University. Well,
boys, charity begins at home.
Very truly yours,
"A Freshman."
