Nominate Officers Tnesday; Election Thursday Little Activity Seen As Student Council Sets Date Nominations for freshman class of ficers -will be received in Memorial hall Tuesday morning at 10:30 and elec tion "day will be Thursday, Jimmy Daivs, president of the student body, announced last night. - The nomniation and election dates were set at the regular meeting of the Student council last Tuesday night, but announcement was withheld, Davis said, in keeping with council policy of allowing freshmen only one day of of ficial campaigning in an endeavor to keep upper-classmen "out of freshmen elections." Wednesday morning's freshmen chapel period will probably be given over to candidates for campaign speeches. As first year men are not allowed a student councjl repijesentjative, they will only choose a president, vice president, secretary and treasurer. Election of class honor council will be held later in the quarter. NOT MUCH "POLITICKING" There has been little hint of pre nemination activity, although Yates Poteat of Winston-Salem, is known to have backing for president. Last year's frosh campaign featur ed three candidates for Thief execu tive, with Bill Shore finally defeating Bill Ward in a run-off. Ward led in the first election but Muck Dunn, who ran third, threw his support to Shore. Location of the votrag-piace-has not been decided upon by the Student coun cil, which supervises all campus elec tions. But Davis said that the ballot boxes would probably be placed in the lobby of the YMCA.

Striking through the air for a touchdown in the waning moments of the opening quarter, the Violents out played, outfought and outgeneraled the Tar Heels in such a manner that for a time there was fear that Ray Wolf's team would not come out of the game alive let alone with any thing but damaged reputations. But in the final period, those two grand Rebels, Lil George Stirnweiss from New York and George Radman from Cleveland who combined to defeat NYU last autumn, got together again. Making his biggest Ail-American bid of the year Stirnweiss scored the first touchdown and passed for the second, Radman caught passes and the Tar Heels collected the two touch downs., that enabled them to wiu their fourth "game in a row this "fair and end the NYU winning streak at. two. The Carolina turn-about came so suddenly and unexpectedly that it caught most of the spectators una ware. Except for the first few plays of the game, NYU held the upper hand against the baffled Tar Heels. Violet backs gained almost at will through the Carolina line and the Tar Heel running and passing attack was effectively bottled up. NYU held a statistical edge from one end of the game to the other, but in the end Carolina had the fireworks to win the fourth season in a row over the puz zled Violets who are beginning to won- Continued on page 3, column 6) Big Five Story Building With Equipment Gives UNC Proper Medical School Setup Although the paint is hardly dry, the new home for the school of medi cine and division of public health at the University has been completed and students and faculty and their inevit able animal companions have moved in. If you haven't inspected the new building, you will doubtless be amazed at the completeness and modernity of everything about it. Every piece of equipment and apparatus, every gadget represents the most recent de velopment in its field. Conforming to the preaviling style of other campus structures, the build ing is of Southern colonial architec ture, in red brick with limestone trim mings. Six suge columns grace the en trance. Not counting the basement, there are five stories, and the structure con tains - approximately a million cubic feet of space, 10 times as much as was. available in the old homo, Caldwell hall. In length it is 260 feet. The cen tral portion is 40 feet deep, but there are wings at either end that project forward 78 feet. LOCATED ON PLATEAU The building is located on a large plateau to the. west of the main Uni versity campus, facing the Pittsboro road, and there will be room for any type of expansion for an indefinite pe riod. It is of fireproof construction throughout and has all the modern features to be found in the leading two year medical schools. Dedication exercises are to be held (Continued on page 2, column 3)
