FILTH
Presbyterianism
A La Hearst
In a. lengthy tirade published
in the news columns of the Daily
Tar Heel Friday Rev. Donald
Stewart, the crusading minister
of the Presbyterian church, pro
ceeded to give the local health
and welfare department a pat on
the back and a slap in the face.
We advise Dr. Stewards praise
of the effectiveness of the de
partment whose files and records
were unhesitatingly put at his
services when he wished to pre
pare an article, on the state of
local living conditions for the
Chapel Hill Weekly.
We do not admire Dr. Stew
art's continued criticism of the
department simply because, as
Mr. Louis Graves so neatly ex
pressed it in his paper last week,
Dr. Richardson (the health of
ficer) and his nurses refused to
turn themselves into "state di
rectors and play-acters to present
a skit -and recite case histories
at a public meeting."
Several days ago the Daily
Tar Heel asked for a Statement
from Dr. Richardson concerning
his stand in the situation in which
the health department presented
a program before the Union Stu
dent forum. We were satisfied
with his reply. He stated that the
files and records of his depart
ment are open at all times to
anyone who wishes to view them.
We cannot see why Dr. Stew
art or anyone else can expect the
department to go any further.
The department has legitimate
reasons for its stand on the mat
ter if it is as effective in its real
work as Dr. Stewart would have
us believe.
Dr. Stewart states in his reply
to Dr. Richardson: "To say that
the files are open but to deny
presentation of those facts in the
form in which they were request
ed is surely to short-circuit and
retard the interests of a group
which cannot present themselves
individually at the filing cabi
net." We cannot see how Dr. Stew-
art considers himself in a posi-
request" favors of the

j health department. We further
believe that the department
would be quite happy even now
to allow the minister to present
himself at the filing cabinet for
his collective group and peruse
the files to his heart's content.
If what we have said seems to
imply that we are not in agree
ment with the movement to en
lighten the student populace on
the state of living conditions in
Chapel Hill, we have created a
mistaken impression.
We admire the work being
done in that direction, but we
cannot sympathize with the al
most juvenile attacks made on
the health department because
it does not wish to sensationalize
its histrionic abilities for what
Dr. Stewart must fear was a
rather dull Union Student forum
meeting.
In short: we feel the health
department has complete juris
diction and discretion over re
leasing the facts it has compiled.
If the health department doesn't
wish to sensationalize, all right.

Honor Council
Men Elected
Seven freshmen were elected
Friday to become the freshman
class honor council.
In spite of a few "vote-for-me"
greetings, most of the balloting
was done without influence of
politicking. This pleases the Stu
dent Council, which, by admis
sion of its members, forsakes
politics after taking office.
Be' that as it may ...
The freshman honor council
has an important function. It,
and all the class honor councils,
serves as a kind of grand jury for
cases of honor and campus code
violations, returning "no bill" or
"true bill." "True bills" go to the
Student Council.
The freshman council is more
important in schooling seven
freshmen in particular in the
workings of the Student Council
as a judicial body.
Schooling is necessary in order
that the freshman, when he be
comes "of age" for the spring
elections, will have a better
THE DAILY
By JIMMY DUMBELL
"Y Period" Tough guy Shelley
Rolfe in lobby at the busiest time of
the day, daintily using a pink Kleenex.
. . Being accosted by some bird with a
Tab Heel, turned to the cross-word puz
zle. "Hey," he sez, "do you spell
"motor" with an "e" or an "o"? .
The guys who reap the nickels from
the nickledeon will undoubtedly be dis
appointed next time they make their
haul. Some villagenius discovered a
way to make it give out about 20 rec
ords on one slug, and the information
as to the modus operandi spread faster
than does news of a weekend date get
around in a beauty parlor. . . The
same old mob hangs out inside, now
that the weather is mauvais, (fr) .
Does seem as though somebody would
come through with some more and
some new couches, benches, chairs or
what have they. . . The cokes at the
soda fountain there are just about
the louisest to be found in town. Busi
ness is so good that sodajerks just
don't have time to stir the concoctions
after they have poured the ingredients
together.
Remarkable Remark. . . Says "Twee-
die" of the Columbia, Tenn., Yeatmen
"You just can't toast marshmallows
on a date, no matter how hot she is:"
And Dr. Irwin of the Geology dept.
cracked yesterday morning to a class,
most of which didn't even hear him:
If we don't get some air in this room,
not only .: you will be asleep, but so
will I." . . . And in response to one
of those questions aimed at everybody
within earshot, viz : Who's gotta white
tie and tails? Bill Snider answered "I
have but it's dirty." . . . Said Dr. Tay
lor in class yesterday ayem: "How
many of you have seen the picture
'Garbo Laughs' at the Carolina the
ater?"
Wonder Why . . . One of the four
barber shops in the village sells hair
cuts for 40 cents, while another sells
same item for 35. (We don't know
about the other, two shops. Never
could afford that many haircuts.) . . .
G. Memorial's night club stays- in
business. A peep in at 10 p.m. the
other night showed a sleepy proprie
tor and one couple dancing. Nobody
else was even sitting in. While on
the subject maybe someday you will
be able to major in night club proprie
toring . . . People work cross word puz
zles at the DTH office. Maybe it's so
that when they get stuck they can pick
up the mat for the next day's puzzle
and get the answer today. . . Royal
typewriters smell like New York sub
ways. . . MayDe tney re ootn tne same
type of stuff. Phew, that did stunk. . .
E. Carrington doesn't turn up the
sound just a little bit in his Carolina
theater. 'Twas so low in Ninotchky
hat nearly half the cracks were smoth
ered in laughter of the audience.. . .
Mickey Warren seemed very anxious
to know if any of her postcards from
New Orleans were read by any male
students. . . Duke doesn't go to the
Dust Bowl and stay there.
Classified . . . Lost: Several dollars
by several people on the Duke game
ast weekend. If found please return
to Tar Heel office. . . Wanted: A ride
to New York over Thanksgiving holi
days. Must be very cheap, we bet on
Carolina, too. Latest model car with
radio, heater, built-in-bar and siren
preferred. Not the kirfd of siren the
fire department uses, though. If not
available, however, will take ride in
ModelT." Please see "Pealings" for

numerous ace reporters, Ray Stroupe
to embark upon a one man expedition.
Stroupe's single order is: "FIND
HALLIBURTON."
And with that order, Stroupe will
eave this afternoon by special plane
to embark upon an uncharted course
to the four corners of the globe via
New Orleans, Panama, Pitcairn Island,
Azores, Gobi Desert, Timbuctu, and
Raleigh.
Three days ago Stroupe arrived at
the ripe old age at which he decided
that there is good" in nothing, espe
cially school. In the middle of cram
ming for exams several nights ago,
he suddenly decided that he would set
out to find the real truth. His en-
husiasm mounted, and he decided upon
today as the day to mak e a scratch
to start from. On a brief last visit to
the Tar Heel office, the Halliburton
mission was conceived and Stroupe ac
cepted the challenge.
Credentials were immediately 'pre
pared and signed by witnesses. As
does the lamb's tail, they follow:
This is to clarify that the bearer is
one Ray Stroupe, reporter of the Daily
Tar Heel.
On the twenty-third day of Novem
ber, 1939, Stroupe was given the fol
lowing assignment: "Find Richard
Halliburton." j
Grant to him all permissions and
liberties allowed members of the press
so that he may complete his assign
ment. Affixed this day, November 23, 1939,
A.D., with my signature in the pres
ence of official. witnesses:

The adventurer will send back
periodic reports of his journey and
the campus will be the first to know of
his success. As a proviso to Stroupe's

the Associated Press, or the United
Press scoop him on the story, Stroupe
is no longer a member of the Tar Heel
staff, which is tantamount to the Rus
sian treatment of exile to Siberia.
Stroupe's first move will be to con
tact the Tar Heel ..South American
correspondent, Mr. E. L. Rankin, Sr.,
and there will place himself in the
hands of Rankin and Fate. All dis
patches will be relayed to Chapel Hill
via shark circuit.
Thus, with the clatter of typewrit

and on the staff of the Daily Tar

was the. first president of the Caro-
