For This Issue: NEWS: CHARLES BARRETT SPORTS: FRED CAZEL not discriminatory Out-of-state students, particu larly from the North, may charge rank discrimination because of the new "quarter-hour" tuition plan. Students from most northern states will pay $6 per quarter hour, and students from the other "five regions" will pay $3.65. North Carolinians' quarter-hour fee will be $1.65. As adopted, however, the ad ministration's policy, determined under a MODIFIED reciprocal plan, ' has not discriminated against northern students. Ac tually the reciprocal fee for most northern students would be from fifty cents to one dollar higher. Already in operation . at Co lamb ia university and used here in the summer school sessions, the "quarter-hour" tuition pay chart will put a definite money value on each course. Each stu . dent must pay for what he gets. . Though the new plan may dis courage the energetic student who likes to carry an "over load" (more than 16 hours per quarter), the self-help student will no longer be a spendthrift when he carries a 'light load." The new plan puts courses on a cash-and-carry basis. Faced with the thankless task of getting $75,000 additional revenue from out-of-state stu dents, the committee did a com mendable job in scaling the tui tion pay chart, for the plan is less discriminatory than adding a flat tuition rate. By ED RANKIN Progressive! The average student could hold down almost any position on this campus, although most so-called student lead ers would hesitate to admit it. But the majority of students, both average and above, frankly do not know which end is up concerning the struc ture of our student government and campus organizations. To cope with this problem, the Student council is taking one of its rare progressive steps by forming a Campus Government con ference, scheduled to come off May 15- 19. A lot of ideas and plans are formed around here they all look good on paper but they usually lack the punch and hard work that would make them possible. This brain child of the Coun cil seems to possess all the ear marks of the greatest thing since Pete Ivey's well-worn "Ice Age." Not only is it badly needed, but it is backed by a very thorough, efficient group who will push it to the limit. The conference will be held just when the new student leaders are most interested in their positions a very laudable idea. By next fall, and cer tainly, by Christmas, the novelty and glitter will have worn off highly polish ed political plums, and both interest and vitality will lag. It is smart to strike when the iron is hot. Unless we miss our guess, this year's edition will be the first cousin to a howling success. May it only be guard ed from the dry rot of red tape and in activity that has choked the usefulness out of so many programs at Chapel Hill. We wish to give all the good luck that might be tagging along with us to the new plan, and hereby call upon the congregation to offer up a special prayer to what or whoever guides the destinies of college students' projects. greater need While nobody will question the humanity or good intention of the group on the campus which is trying to bring - six German refugees here, the rest of us . whose help will be asked must wonder if money thus .spent will do the most good in the present situation. It's a question of weighing need against need. Is the Univer sity education of six refugees on $1,800 the best use, to which that money can be put in the whole crisis? We doubt it. If all the people persecuted now in Germany could be brought out, if those already out were being fed and housed, we would have no hesitation in subscrib ing pur mite for the education of sitf. But as long as some can't af ford transportation out of that hell, and as long as thousands more are being shuttled starving and homeless across inhospitable frontiers, we are inclined to send our contribution to the organ izations in New York which deal with escape and settlement. More than once, good people have been so "carried away" with a grand passion of sympathy that their help lost direction and effectiveness. We ask the group sponsoring the six refugees here to look again at the more imme diate, more desperate, needs of homeless thousands. political windup Carolina's politicians part of them at least will become statesmen, campus leaders, and what-have-you tonight. Under! old Davie Poplar's creaking limbs ! they undergo inauguration cere monies and officially take over their duties for 1939-40. Thus the big political circus will ring down its curtain for the last time during the current sea son. This business of choosing campus and class officers began back in the winter quarter when parties were drawing up their slates. Doubtless inspired with the pet philosophy of that deluxe showman, P. T. Barnum, Student Body President Jim Joyner is of fering special attractions to se cure a large attendance at his show. Besides prizes to the dor mitory and fraternity having the largest proportional representa tion, there will be "some very es sential information" revealed, in the words of Joyner. So, with an opportunity to see whom you voted for or against, a chance to help your dormitory or fraternity win a prize, and as surance of some essential en lightenment being thrown your way, you can lose very little by attending the inaugural cere monies' tonight.

I How "Wuthering Heights" succeeded New Differentials (Continued from first page) puting the average tuition and differ ential fees a North Carolina student would be required to pay if attending universities in any of the above dis tricts. It was emphasized that these fees are based on the average that will be found in the districts and not ne cessarily at every university in the dis trict. A North Carolina student at tending a college in Vermont, for ex ample, would have been charged $675.00 for the tuition-plus-differential fee alone. At the lowest rate found in that same region the charge would have been $250, or $29 below the rate adopted here. The reciprocal rates have been raised in the case of the "low" states in or der not to violate legislative under standing that charges would not be reduced. They have been lowered in the "high" states so that they will be merely high enough to produce the amount necessary. The reason for the slight increase in tuition fees for North Carolina stu dents is to put the tuition fees here on a level with those at State college. The plan of charging for quarter hours the student actually takes is not a new idea. It has been used here in sum mer school for some time and is the only system used by Columbia univer sity and the University of Arizona. - The idea, as adopted by the Univer sity, was worked out by the University committee, ratified by the faculty ad visory committee, and approved by the administration. Members of the ad ministration expressed themselves yes terday as believing that "the best pos sible has been made of a very difficult situation." merry-go-round By CHARLES BARRETT ONE OF MANY - Everytime we hear of the student committee seeking funds to "adopt" six German refugee students for next year, we are haunted by the ineffec able memory of the North Carolina boy who is slowly going insane because he doesn't have enough money to con tinue his career at Carolina. Many of us knew this boy last year as a normal freshman who had to work like the devil to stay in school. He was popular in the quadrangle, and liked Carolina even more than most of us do. Something in the back of his head snapped last fall quarter when he real ized he didn't have enough money to continue in school. He went back to his home town, but he's never been tlie same since. Most of his friends would be sur prised to know that a few weeks ago, clad in pajamas and bath robe, he col lapsed at the door of a quadrangle dorm manager's room. He had jumped out of a Duke hospital window and hired a taxi to bring him to Carolina. His body was cold and stiff. In his de lirium, he pleaded with the dorm man ager not to "let them take me away." They would be surprised to know that in his home town he has been found lying unconscious in the gutter of the road leading to Carolina. He had climb ed out of his window after midnight and started toward his Mecca, but his body wouldn't follow his mind. Perhaps some of you knew him dur ing summer school last year. He wasn't going to school he was just staying here because he loved it. He was work ing from 8 o'clock at night to 6:30 in the morning in order to get enough money just to stay here. It's obvious that if this boy doesn't get to Carolina it will wreck his life. It's very probable that tie will go com pletely insane instead of just spas modically so. And that's why it seems queer that students are planning to spend $1800 on free education for six refugees from Germany. Der Vaterland is a long, long way off. Faculty Chips (Continued from first page) student opinion," Bagbyfcaid, "and the students in reporting the efficiency of instructors have an opportunity of helping them." Dr. Bagby indicated that a report from the students aids assistant professors particularly bo that they will not be dependent quite so completely upon receiving offers from other institutions for increase in salary and for promotion. Bagby urged that instead of students marking the "Grade Your Professor" sheets without due consideration, they discuss the professors with others, de cide on their important qualities, and establish the relative importance of those factors. Dr. Bagby suggested also that stu dents in grading professors consider the opportunities of the material they teach, consider whether it is a requir ed or elective subject, and contrast clearness of diction with clearness of explanation. "FEARFULLY ..." Dr. Epps of the classical language department gave his support to the survey and said that he was "11 for it even though fearfully so." F. C. Hayes of the romance langu age department remarked that the sur vey was "a good idea" and that it had prospects for a success. R. S. Osborne, English department, said that "ability" and "personality" was not enough evidence by which to grade a professor. He stated that the survey in its present form- is not de tailed enough in order to specify the weaknesses of the teachers. J. O.. Bailey agreed that it was an interesting thing and a good idea, "but there is a lack of objective standards." Bailey thinks that "dumb" students are not capable of judging the ability of professors. P. W. Wager, a professor of poli tical science, stated, "I do not think the survey will. do any harm and may have the effect of making some of us check upon ourselves." J. L. Godfrey of the history depart ment thinks that the survey wiH amount to something if it is continued over a number of years. He said that a student does not learn enough about a professor in one quarter to judge his ability. DR. R. R. CLARK Dentist Office Over Bank of Chapel Hill PHONE 6251 WW ... mi tmesis
