paired lads and lassies for the Sadie
Hawkins brawl slated to shake the Tin
Can tonight from 9 to 12 o'clock.
Jane McMaster, president of the
Woman's association, drew Rogers'
name, but at the last minute she
found she would be unable to go to
the dance. So Ann Williams, vice-president,
will escort him. Natcherly.
Marjorie Johnson, president of the
'Woman's Athletic association and
Sound and Fury beauty, drew Colton
3. Allen.
"Maybe the result scared him,"
IVIarjorie said illogically last night,
""and he is dodging the draft he
-didn't answer the telephone when I
-called him tonight."

Apparently there weren t enough
T)aisv Maes to eo around, but the
-droves of Lil Abners still looking wil
turn up at the dance tonight as stags
So it is really a great day for all the
ampus Sadie Hawkinses.
The little capsules containing the
fateful names really were drawn out
-of the fish bowl yesterday morning at
a rapid pace. , The gals were 50 anxious
that they showed" Washington how to
conduct a lottery which didn't last far
into the night.
The free dance tonight will be a fit
ting celebration to the memory of the
immortal Sadie Hawkins. The Skunk
Hollow Slide and the Salami Swagger,
nough entertainment to fill two days,
And colorful costumes direct from
Dogpatch will all make real Dogpatch
citizens out of the student body.

French Relief
By United Press
WASHINGTON President Roose
velt, backing his pledge of further
aid to Great Britain, revealed today
that the British Empire will get half
of this country's plane and armament
production.
The priority board followed the
announcement promptly by granting
Britain permission to negotiate for
the purchase of 12,000 more modern
army planes.
Mr. Roosevelt disclosed that he has
set the rule of thumb under which
United States, Great Britain, and
Canadian armed forces will go fifty-
fifty on war materials rolling off
American mass production lines.
This means that the U. S. will get
half of the total output of flying fort
resses, other planes and ammunition
or five per cent less than it has pre
viously received since the beginning
of the rearmament program.

Joslin and Rogers Comment
QmBU, iM Guest-Conflict
Club Heads Fail
To Offer Solution
Bill Joslin, chairman of the Car
olina Political union, and Manfred
Rogers, president of the International
Relations club, yesterday admitted a
conflict between the two organizations
but failed to offer any concrete sug
gestion for solution.
Joslin disclosed that the union has
discussed "the danger of flooding the
campus with too many speakers as a
result of the new policy of the IRC"
but said "the work of the union is con
tinuing as it has since its organization
four years ago. We have adequately
filled the needs of the campus during
this period."
Rogers expressed hope for a "sue
cessful erasing of any existing prob
lems" and maintained that "two or-i
ganizations such as the IRC and CPU
can do a far superior job of presenting
men in our respective fields than could
only one group."
"Sour" Situation

Heel pointed out the conflict and the

Begins
Savings Drive
Dorm Plans To Cut
Utilities Tariff
Encouraged by campus-wide inter
est, Steele dormitory begins Monday
its formal campaign for reducing light
ing and water costs, savings from
which will be used for purchasing
permanent equipment.
"We're not cutting down our lights
and water consumption to a drastic
minimum,", dormitory president Cole
man Finkel, originator of the plan,
said yesterday. "We just want to
eliminate all unnecessary waste just
as we do in our homes.
"Lots of electricity and money are
simply thrown away when students
leave lights burning all night in their
regular rooms, halls and washrooms.
They also of ten forget to turn off
water spigots. That's the kind of thing
we're going to stop."
To keep the dormitory men in
formed, daily readings of the light
and water meters will be posted on
the bulletin board for comparison with
the average daily consumption of last
November, which totaled $69.60. .
Large Saving Estimated
Finkel . estimates that a saving of
from 10 to 25 per cent can be affected.
This money will be credited to the
dormitory by the University at the
end of the month.
Finkel has already appointed three
section chairmen and 11 floor leaders
to explain the purpose of the drive
more fully to the dormitory students
and to supervise the elimination of
waste. - - ' -
Sam Teague, Charles Phillips and
Walt Hargroves are the section chair
men. Floor leaders, are Dick Jones,

Spiders Reputed
Virginia's Best
Gridiron Squad
By Leonard Lobred
Through with all inters ectional foes
and Hearing the big game of the year
and the subsequent close of their -campaign,
Carolina's Tar Heels sally forth
in Richmond today to meet what is
reputedly a "breather" team but which
in reality appears to be the best eleven
in Virginia. Kick-off time is 2:30 in
City stadium.
Richmond cannot be ranked with
such former Carolina opponents as
TCU, Tulane and Fordham, but the
Spiders have a light, speedy team
fashioned much like the Tar Heels
themselves, and hold victories over
Apprentice school, Randolph-Macon,
Virginia Tech, VMI and Hampden
Sydney with losses only to Franklin
and Marshall and Washington and
Lee.
Sweet Jim Lalanne remained a
doubtful participant in today's con
test with Richmond, and Johnny Pe
cora seemd to be Coach Ray Wolf's
choice for first team quarterbacking
duties. Joe Austin, sophomore wing
back who started against Fordham,
had to stay at home with a bad cold,
but the line-up was marked by the
addition of Bob Smith, senior center,
and Roy Connor, playing at wing
back. Although Lalanne has rested this
week in an effort to recover from
thigh and foot injuries received in the
Fordham engagement, the Sweet One,
ranking, Np 4 among the. nation's ball
carriers, made the trip,, but it is likely
that hell see the game only from the
side. Pecora, 165-pound second-year
man, and Frank O'Hare, 185-pounder,
will handle the tailback assignment.

tion in the line for the first time this

Cheerio Members
To Guard Rameses
Before Duke Game
Over 15 members of the Cheerio
club at Thursday night's meeting in
Memorial Hall answered a call for vol
unteers to guard Rameses the night
before Carolina's game with Duke.
Volunteers were requested from
the membership of the Cheerio club to
guard Rameses the Friday night pre
ceding the Duke game. Hogan has
guaranteed a night of fun and excite
ment at his farm for those who under
take this patriotic task.
Plans are incomplete now for spe
cial cheers and card displays at the
game, but President Charlie Nelson
said that he hopes to work out a neat
card display showing a Blue Devil
being butted by the Carolina Ram.
Seats will be reserved on the 40-yard
line for those taking part in the card
display: "All displays will be new,"
Charlie said.
Sophomores Must
Call For Midterms
All . sophomores who have not yet
called by for their midterm grades are
requested by the General office to do
so by Monday.
