Tar Heel begs the pardon of each stu dent above the classification of freshman for writing the following editorial. The officialdom of South building, the Interdormitory council, the. In terfraternitv council, almost - all campus organizations and even indi vidual students have worked to gether and separately to keep the many student pedestrians off the grass. But somehow the many stu dent pedestrians, enough of them at least to maintain some 25 paths which bisect the campus' grass, can't resist the lure of the short-cut" to destination if not to fame. So, apologizing in advance to those of you who have heard it for years on years, the Daily Tar Heel feels duty-bound to join with the Interf raternity council, the Inter dormitory council, the buildings de partment (which plans to turn all grass-bisecting paths under the plow) to present a united front and re-issue this oft-heard plea). PLEASE Keep Off The Grass ADVANTAGES And Disadvantages In Fraternities Recently this office was in receipt of a letter from one of that large group of freshmen who, although receiving fratern ity, bids, will be financially un able to pledge. ...... In his tetter the freshman made this statement : "Now my financial standing probably wouldn't allow me to join- a fra ternity even if I did see an ad vantage in joining but I have a number of friends who would probably join if someone would point out a reason .'. . why they should pledge themselves to one of our many social groups." ' Speaking from the standpoint of a non-fraternity man, the writer hasten3 to say hat there are undoubtedly certain definite advantages gained by fraternity men. Speaking from , the same standpoint, however, he repudi ates the freshman's assumption that fraternities are strictly "so cial groups." Originally they might have belonged to that category, but now they are poli tical bodies, athletic teams, and assorted other organizations as well as convivial fellowships With the power provided by unity, fraternities can, put you into political and publications of fices and place you on all-campus athletic teams, as well as give you social entertainment. If you are likely material, they can make you a "Big-Man-on-the-Campus." You can meet -per haps room- with numerous in teresting personalities, and, in later life, that pin on your coat lapel may do you some good when the going gets rough. As the fraternity men themselves will tell you, you can get as much out of fraternity life as you are willing to invest in it. Remember, however, that fra ternities are not the only cam pus organizations - wnicn can give you your moment of fame and pleasure. Dormitory clubs can make you president of the student body, editor of the Buc caneer, or all-campus halfback, depending" upon your individual qualifications. The Interdormi tory and class dances, the literary societies, and the YMCA can give you a goodly share of. social en joyment, when supplemented by athletic contests and student en tertainments. The friends you make in your dormitory clubs can be as faithful after you leave school as the friends you would find among your fraternity brothers. It isn't necessary, therefore, to join a fraternity in order to enjoy a full college life. The im portant thing is to enter com pletely into the work of any or ganization you join. You are the unknown quantity who will final ly determine the success or fail ure of your college career. Don't be disheartened, then, because you are not one of the 240 who have already pledged fraternities, or because you will not be among those who will probably pledge before the year ends." ' ' Perhaps the other 600 fresh men aren't wrong, "after all. HELLO KER! sue 4 By ED RANKIN PASS THE BUC THIS WAY "The Buccaneer this year will fea ture lower quadrangle humor in a form that the Shack will like," said Bill Stauber yesterday morning to chapel weary freshmen in Memorial hall. And lo and behold, in this very un retentious setting stubby Stauber breaks the news of the type of humor . -. he will use. His first issue last spring heralded the reign of the belly laugh but the matter is now cinched by Bill's statement. Every year the Buc changes ac cording to the man at its helm. If the editor loves brittle, sophisti cated humor the old Buccaneer heels over in that direction, but if he wants the broad, sensational type the of ficial University humor rag must fol low his directions. So with each new editor there is a new Buc, whether the campus likes it or not. There are certain features that remain somewhat the same, but Hay- den Clement would not have run Pugh's dark meat layout and Carl would have scoffed -at some of Hay den's brainchilds. This year we have a cheerful little fellow from Rural Hall (N. C. to you out-of -staters) at the wheel and most people believed we would: have some spun humor, or the "have you heard about the traveling salesman who went to a farmhouse one night, etc.,' kind of joke. But if Stauber is like most Buc chieftains, and I think he is, no one can tell what will happen next. And to the student body, this is its most desirable asset, while ministers and a few of the professors see 'the decency and respectability of townspeople and state-for whom the Buc is not writ ten highly insulted. . All I can say is the new Buccaneer will be out on the campus Wednesday so loosen your belt or corset and judge for yourself. ' FORMER U. S.

J. Kellum. When the faculty has University Day and the students hold State Fair day, next . Thursday, the students may turn their thoughts to their forebears of 1860 and be happy that they are living, in .the twentieth century- September, 1860, the faculty issued a circular to the public, declaring: "The rule of the faculty requires that no one shall be allowed to attend the State Fair unless the parent or guar dian asks for it and himself is to be present." . That would be embarras sing to everyone except the all-but a-half-dozen-or - so students who really do see the agricul tural exhibits. Another old time ordinance pro hibits the students from visiting a tavern without leave of a. professor. Rather odd it would be, nowadays, to have to go down to Harry's, or other Chapel Hill taverns, to ferret out a professor and secure from him the necessary per mission. jMU,WWHIiJ,ii IH1HIJKMI.MI H M.i. The Old East cornerstone (laying By DON BISHOP of which is celebrated on University Day) was appropriately laid by the Freemasons of North Carolina, of which William Richardson Davie was grand master. .The Masonic influr enc was strong when, the first' Uni versity buildings were planned. In all lodge rooms of the Masonic order, the worshipful master sits in the east the senior warden in the west, and the junior warden in the south. Old East, Old West, and South were there fore built in these positions and in decen ding order of importance. So, with all this Masonic atmos phere, those people who believe. Hit ler (who is extremely anti-Masonic) may try to conquer the world, may begin to fear for the sanctity of these historic edifices if ever Der Fuehrer arrives on American shores. . ' A Tale A Freshie , One of Steele dormitory's aspiring, scholars a freshman, of course- confronted with books and notes the other night around 7:30 o'clock pro ceeded to study for an 8:30 quiz un til the late hour of 2:30 a.m. Then, satisfied with knowledge, he .retired, only to sleep right on through his 8:30 class. . . . . -; Largest Herbarium (Continued from first page) the fungi specimens from insects was developed by Dr. Coker, and is only used here, he believes. Instead of using napthalene to ward off pests, the fungus, after being dried, is merely wrapped in paper and put in an envelope whose mouth is folded several times. The insect is not smart enough to crawl through the folds. A number of well-known books have been wrtiten by Dr. Coker, among which are works on coral mushrooms, puffballs, and water molds. He wrote, in collaboration with Totten, "Trees of the Southeastern States." A com panion book on the shrubs of the southeast is now in preparation. 5 Squeaks clnd Squawks By You 2 Dear Editor: Since there, are a number of new dormitories on the campus which are still unnamed, I would like to suggest, as an alumnus of the University, that one of the dormitories be named for William Rufus King, the only alumnus of Carolina to . attain the position of vice-president of the United States. William R. King was born in Sampson county, N. C, in 1784, attended the University from about 1798 to 1800, studied law, was elected to Congress from Wilmington district, member of Alabama Constitutional convention, pp-nrpRpnt.prl Alabama in Jio TT R Senate for 20 years.
