Heavy Vote Forecast Today For GPU Ballot to Reveal Campus Reaction To Conscription A -heavy student vote approxi mately 2,000 is expected today in the ' Carolina Political Union's question naire poll designed to reveal campus reaction toward the conscription bill and presidential campaign issues. Voting precincts, to be supervised by Union members, will remain open in the YMCA lobby from 8:30 a.m. cntil 5 p.rru," and in the cafeteria lob by during meal hours. Operation of this year's poll will "vary somewhat from previous ones in that the CPU will use the printed Iballot instead of the customary voting machine. ,( ...... . Instead of tabulating the votes on a total basis ; Chairman Wiliam Jos lin said that they would be classified this time according to political party, ex and home states! ' This method of tabulation, he said, should indicate regional feeling toward the issues. Today's vote should reflect a sig nificant light, on the current campus activity of 'the ever-querying Willkie and Eoosevelt club scouts. "We hope,'! Joslin said, "that all student will avail themselves of this opportunity to show how they fee about conscription, about fighting' for Britain, and - about the presidential candidates, 1 because' they will be the ones who will have to bear the burden of the rearmament program and who -will have to do the fighting, probably under the leadership of the man chos en by the voters in November." Joslin left this morning for Wash- ington,where. he hopes'-, to make def i mite arrangements with the Roosevelt and Willkie forces to send high party officials to the campus to explain in detail the questions listed on the bal lots. Politicking on the campus for both presidential nominees has been more intense than during any national cam paign in recent years, observers say.

A Under the leadership of Harry Gan derson, secretary-treasurer bf j the Graduate club, a petition will be cir culated shortly in an attempt to give Smith, the graduate men's dormitory, a representative in the legislature. ; If one-sixth of the student --body signs such a petition the ? Student council is required by the-constitution to call a general campus referendum within 20 days after it receives the paper. "Graduates are part of the stu dent body ' and deserve representa tion in student government along with undergraduates," Ganderson said yes terday.; Four Graduate Dorms There are four graduate dormi tories, only one of which is directly represented in the legislature. Wo man's dorm No. 3 has a representa tive. Carr, the law, students' dorm, and L, the med students' dorm, are represented only by the law and med school representatives. Smith is not represented at all. Sentiment has been strong on the campus for several years to give graduate students more representa tion in student government, but little was done toward that end until the present constitution was .drawn up; last spring allowing the law and med schools one representative each in the egislature. - There was some talk last year of giving graduate students a representative on the Student Coun cil.

On Square Dancing m Commenting on square dancing Worley said: "Square dancing and folk dancing has a psychological value in educa tional work. It is a superior metftod for teaching beginners to dance. "It is attractive for many reasons. The formations in groups, circles, and squares, with frequent changes of partners, make them truly social. If hilarious enough to make good whole some fun." A large crowd is expected to attend, as this is the only social event taking place on the campus this week-end.

' By Orville Campbell - Herb Hardy, senior class president, yesterday named 69 seniors to com pose eight committees which will con duct senior class activities during the year. In making the appointments Hardy stated that every student was select ed on his ability to serve the class, and not on the political pull or power they might hold on the campus. - "Every member of the senior class was considered in the selection," Hardy said. -"When -1 was elected president of the class last spring made no political promises, therefore it was easy for me to select the best possible students for each committee," he added. Last year, Benny Hunter, senior class president, named 75 students to the various senior class committees. Felix Markham, senior class prexy in '37, made only 26 appointments. Committee Chairman Kenan .Williams, who was appoint ed chairman of the executive commit tee -by Hardy, heads the list of chair manships. Other committee chair mans include Bill Wall, chairman of the ring committee; Bob Farris.and Al Hewitt, co-chairmans of the invi tations committee; Charles Barker, chairman of the senior regalia com mittee; Coleman Finkel and' Allen Grimes, co-chairmen of the cap and gown committee; Archie Mcintosh, chairman of gift committee, and Car- (Continued on page 4, column 2) Roosevelt Club MeeteTohighf Japanese Warn of 'All or Nothing' Struggle if Americans Ban Exports By United Press : TOKIO, Oct. 3 (Thursday) The newspaper Asahi warned British and Americans today that 'if they banned oil, rubber, and tin exports to Japan the Japanese would choose an "all or nothing struggle" rather than "wait ing for death." 1 The newspaper said there was an opportunity for Anglo-American re flection toward eliminating unneces sary international friction but added that the new tri-partite pact most ikely will cause a stiffening instead of a softening of Anglo-American Far Eastern politics."
