This service is part of the current campaign which the YDC is con ducting here on the campus and, as a member group of the state Young Democrats organization throughout North Carolina, to arouse interest and soirit amoncr students in behalf of the reelection of President Roosevelt.

The person who submits the name which the board adopts will receive the award of $5.00. The bill passed by the legislature Monday provided that the PU board should appoint the editor of the new magazine to serve for this, and the board chose to give all students a chance to apply for the position. Next year the editor will be elected by the student body in the regular manner. All material for the publication will have to be approved by the entire staff, which, as provided in the bill, will include as department heads a managing editor, feature editor, car toon editor, photography editor, and exchange editor, to be chosen by the editor and approved by the PU board. The approval of material by the staff was deemed necessary to insure against the inclusion of anything not in keeping with the "highest stand ards, principles, and traditions of the University." against him? If you are beaten at your own game, you got what you asked for. Besides they have given away the case to Hitler in still an other respect. In effect, he says that men are a bad and beastly lot and so you have to have a super-man like him to rule them. If men are essen tially animals, then every society will be a wolf pack and the strongest and cruellest wolf will run at the head."

Christian Groups Meet Here Sunday The YMCA and YWCA will be joint hosts to the quarterly meeting of the North Carolina Student Chris tian movement, when representatives from all colleges in North Carolina gather on the campus Sunday.

Harry Comer, executive sec retary of the YMCA, said that the convention "is an outstanding expres sion of inter-racial understanding among all student YM and YWCA's throughout the state." News Briefs (Continued from first page) litical censorship of course, but it was significant that deep down in a dis patch from United Press correspon dent Scott Watson in Athens there was a paragraph saying that Greeks everywnere were asKing, "Wnere is the British fleet?" In a speech disclosing to the Greek people, anxious for word of British aid, that many 'British naval units were in action on their side, the British Ad miralty in London announced that British warships from eastern Medi terranean bases were actively aiding Greece, and have mined strategic western and southern coastal waters to protect Athens from naval assault. ATHENS, Oct. 30 Sharp-shooting Greek mountain troops today were re ported to be mowing down Italian forces attempting to advance along the Albanian frontier under protec tion of a terrific aerial bombardment of the Greek defense lines. BELGRADE, Oct. 30 A smashing Italian attack led by bombing planes today captured the Greek highway town of Breznica and opened up a main route for the Fascist invaders across .Macedonia toward the Aegean port of Salonika, frontier dispatches said. LONDON, Oct. 30 New defense guns studding a ten-mile" wide space along the southeastern coast threw up a fiery war against German raiders ferrying bombs to London tonight and most of the attackers dumped their bombs hurriedly and beat a retreat back across the channel. LONDON, Oct. 30 Despite gales and a raging snowstorm British bombers were said today to have bombed an electric plant in the heart of Berlin and to have pressed whole attacks on other military objectives in Germany . and German-held terri tory. BOSTON, Oct. 30 President Roose velt said tonight that he is clearing the way to furnish Britain with vast quantities of war supplies, and has asked the new defense priority board to "give the most sympathetic con sideration" to proposals that Britain be furnished 12,000 warplanes in ad dition to 14,000 already on order. WASHINGTON, Oct. 30 Specula tion of the future status of Secretary of State Cordell Hull, who left the Tennessee t mountains to become one of the world's best known statesmen, enlivened the party's vital president tial campaign tonight. It was believed that if the third term ticket triumphs, Mr. Roosevelt will ask his friend and adviser to carry on. Reports that Wendell L. Willkie, if elected, will invite him to continue in his present position brought no denial Grid-Graph (Continued from firtt page) in the last 10 minutes to come from behind and tie up the" Carolina-Tulane game. Those who followed the game by grid-graph had given up hope, but when the Tar Heels started to march, their yells in Memorial hall were equal to those at a regular game in Kenan stadium. Students who have witnessed - grid graphs in the past claim it is more thrilling to follow a football game in this manner than by radio, Sadoff pointed out. The grid-graph is composed of a miniature playing field, and the play ers on each team are placed in their respective positions. As each play of the game is made you can tell who carried, passed, or punted the ball and for how many yards. Workers will set up the grid-graph tomorrow and the mechanism will be put into operation promptly at 2:30 Saturday. Students may : purchase tickets from the Memorial hall box- office starting at 1:30 Saturday. ! Howell Publishes English Handbook j A revised "Handbook of English in Engineering Usage" by Dr. A. C. Howell, University professor of Eng- lish, is now replacing his first edition of that textbook, which has guided technical and engineering students for over ten years in the development of clear, concise English. Published by John Wiley and Sons for $2.50, the new text retains the fundamentals of the first edition and has been "keyed to present practice" by several changes. Illustrative material has been in creased and deals with all types of technical writing from letters to re search reports. Several appendices have been inserted in the back of the book, including la supplementary list of style books and authors and a com plete form used by a government agency in an investigation report. Playing The Game (Continued from page three V garded. All the world loves a win ner, the saying goes; unless, of course, he wins too much as does Carl Snavely. A comparison of the starting line ups of the 1937 and 1940 elevens won't be fair for several years more, until all names have had a chance to mel low with time and be bandied about by the old grads. But take the first and second strings now and list them with the 1937 team, which was a 60-minute club. Taking them man for man or team for team, the '40 eleven boasts a better passing attack, a running at tack almost as strong and all-around potentialities capable of someday going to town in a big way. Take the "present combination, with Paul Severin and John Miller at left end, Dick Sieck and Ed Michaels or Dick White at left tackle, Gwynn Nowell and Bob Whitten at left guard, Carl Sunth eimer and Bob Smith , at center, Freddy Marshall and Bill Faircloth at right guard; Gates Kimball and Bob Heymann at right tackle, Stew art Richardson and Howard Hodges at right end, Jim Lalanne and Frank O'Hare at tailback, Harry Dunkle and Dave Barksdale at blocking back, Don Baker and Roy Connor at wingback, and Sid Sadoff and Bill. Sigler at fullback. In those two teams are 14 lettermen. ' Comparative scores are to be thrown out, and the won-lost record of the 1940 Tar Heels cannot be compared with the 1937 slate. If this eleven is better than any other coached by Wolf, so too might Carolina's opponents be improved. The contention is still de batable, but the argument that the present Tar Heel forces have, extra passing and running strength com bined is hard to disprove. It seems quite evident. Carolina gained a first down against Tulane last Saturday without making ten yards, thanks to a technicality in he rules. Many noticed at the begin ning of the second quarter that when Carolina went "into punt formation on third down with eight to go, a Tu- :::wv.ia Mmmmmmm ft ,7 ' wit. m mm mmz-M win nm ,(ffijH Direcfd by m XillUMX GAR6AN Another INFORMATION PLEASE COLOR CARTOON Playmakers Cast Experimentals Complete casts for the three experi mental productions to be presented next Tuesday night in the Playmater theater were announced yesterday by Dr. Frederick H.

Varsity Football (Continued from page three i noon, everything can be pronounced complete for the Tar Heels. The battle with the Rams shapes up as one that will be fought in all methods, passing and running and kicking. Fordham has gained on the gimnd and through the air, with a deceptive attack built around Esh mont, Filipowicz and Noble. The Rams broke loose against Tulane in New York several weeks ago for long gains on their passing. The squad seems much improved in condition, and will leave tomorrow after finishing work practice today.
