But if you lhad looked close you would have ob- Managing Editor ed that he was having difficulty majung nis connection. Yeah, you guessed it. He was call ing a coed dormitory. Pausing for a few seconds be tween Business Manager Circulation Manager if Bill Bruner, Andrew attempts, he dialed 25 times straight without getting anything but the Bell Company's Bronx cheer, the busy signal. The girls get many calls but not so large a number that you can't break in some where over a decent interval. Which brings up the matter of what's wrong with Chapel Hill phone service in all the dormitories. According to my very conservative estimates there are . approximately 2,100 students living in Carolina's 21 dormitories. Seventeen of these dor mitories have one phone to serve their 100 or so residents, while the four Business Staff Local Advertising Managers: Jimmy Schleifer, Gennett.

This means, 200 prospective callers are served by one telephone line. The complications are endless. In the women's dorms the regular first floor phone must be used to call up to the second and third floors for dates. If a fellow is calling, say, the second floor of No. 1, either, the girls may be calling out, the first floor may be call ing up to the second, or boys may be calling in. Try 6096 sometime if you MR. C0ATES New Ship For Institute Were Albert Coates a child, WPTF's afternoon birthday an nouncer, Uncle Scotty, might tell Mr. Coates he would find his birthday present over on Frank lin street, across from Graham Memorial. But it isn't Mr. Coates birth day in the first place ; its the tenth birthday of the Institute of Government. The $50,000 building, how ever, is a gift for Mr. Coates whose idea became the organiza tion and whose work and per severance has resulted in success for a needed institution. Back in 1929 the Institute was begun and it's been growing ever since', first housed in the base ment of Manning hall, then in the state capitol at Raleigh, now in the Methodist church and in two days to move into a spacious, well-built home of its own. Mr. Coates, a University law profes sor, could hardly have dreamed of the expansion of the institu tion in 1929 when stocks were dropping and banks were closing doors faster than the speakeasies of the "roaring twenties" pe riod. But the most important func tion of the Institute of Govern ment is welding the principals and principles of local, county, state, and federal government into an efficient and money-saving hierarchy "to replace out moded methods of government and to. instruct office-holders in the requirements of their posi tions. The men who should know, economists, historians, politici ans, will tell you that in spite of the general hullabaloo bemg raised because of the federal government's vast spending pro gram, federal government is far more efficient than any other branch ; that the taxpayer gets more for his dollar in federal services than in local services. This is the purpose of the In stitute of Government, to elimi nate the deadwood and waste Sports: SHELLEY ROLFE jont believe me.

Considering the first ten years' progress and the needs of such an organization; we must com pliment Mr. Coates and his staff and bid them bon voyage on the next trip. We're glad they've got a new ship. GOOD MUSIC Fritz Kreisler To Return After a highly successful con cert here eight years ago, when the depression was still fresh in the minds of local audiences, Fritz Kreisler, foremost violinist in the world, returns here in the winter quarter. Sponsored by the local chapter of Phi Mu Alpha, national honorary music fra ternity, his appearance will be in Memorial hall. And there is every reason to believe a sell-out audience will be there to hear him. Phi Mu Alpha is far from being a headline hunter. It is the sort of organization one hears little of. And it is gratifying to see that when it does break into public print, it does so with distinction. Dismissing .the controversy which occasionally bobs up as to the value (in 10 cent beers) of student entertainments sched uled bv the Student Entertain ment committee, we wish to con gratulate Phi Mu Alpha for bringing here an artist in whose ability there is no doubt. ing part of the conversation. It seems to this writer that a house phone system, like the one in the Shack last year, should relieve coed dorm tangle. A direct line to each dormi tory would help the other 17 men's buildings tremendously. The University is a school of a thou sand organizations. At least one group should take- up the fight for better phone arrangements on the campus if for no other reason than justify their existence. Lost Articles Now In YMCA Office Several articles lost are now at the YMCA office. The articles are a gold wrist watch, fountain pens, an over coat, and some books. Tempe Newsome said yesterday that I YMCA cards were ready for those stu- from public administration. Al- dents who have not received them.

The gamell be played between the Dazzling Day Dogs" and the "Battl ing Border Rats." Which doesn t sound a bit pansy like to us! ' Boy, you really need those extra smokes per pack, if you're an Emory University student. A survey there revealed that if you buy one pack, you're almost sure to have one-quarter of the 20 bummed before the last one is gone. Definitely, two can't smoke as cheap ly as one ! Here's something new the democrats are being blamed for these days. The editor of. the Wheaton College Record received a letter which said: "Dear Editor (You. Democrat): We never froze at homecoming when Coolidge and Hoover were presidents." An Ohio State University sociology class survey shows that the social dis tance between members of a class is great but there was a high degree of "interaction" reported between stu dents and their teachers. Which explains why "An Apple for the Teacher" is a popular theme song!

Several Chapel Hill children were in a heated discussion on the World War II.

' I - 1 As his literary works gain their de served recognition with the passage of time, little incidents connected with the life of Thomas Wolfe, the Uni versity's greatest contributor to litera ture, will be of interest to his ad mirers. On one occasion several years ago, Wolfe and- Alumni Secretary "Spike" Saunders were traveling by train from Atlanta. Mr. Saunders, who was at the time reading Maragret Mitchell's verbose novel of the Civil War South, inquired if Wolfe had read "Gone With the Wind." "Oh, no," he answered, "It's much too long for me." , From an item in an old Alumni Re view: At the Asheville "jamboree" on August 28 the exhibits were Thomas Wolfe '20 and Judge Robert W. Win ston '79. Massive, mountainous, and yet halting and faltering as he respond ed to an introduction, Mr. Wolfe scor ed the hit of the party when he stam mered: "I suppose you folks will not believe me when I tell you I'm at loss for words. But I am." In "Look Homeward, Angel," the author (who incidentally, was editor of the Tar Heel) recounts how he would be walking along Franklin street and would suddenly dash up to a house, fall on the porch floor, and gaspingly cry for water, all the while pawing at the door. An excited housewife would find him there, frantically bring him water, and attempt to revive him. He j would then suddenly stand erect, say "Thank You," and stalk away, ap parently in perfect health. . . . Such are the attributes of genius. . .
