International" Relations club, has post
ponei his speaking: engagement until
January 7, IRC President Manfred

4tz a clear picture of the present
European conflict,"
According to the announcement,

ferring the war and related events.
T&e former Ambassador has been re
tzntd from France for about three
mo-ths, but has yet to make a speech
of noteworthy consequence.
Boomed for English Post
Highly significant . with Bullitt's
appearance is the fact that a new am
bassador to the ' Court of St. James
is to be named in the near future, and

to Bullitt as successor to Joseph P.
Xersedy.

Graham Memorial was the scene of

fires burning (literally, too, as a cord
of wood went to ashes in the lounge

vacation.
Everything from a wedding to con
certs, broadcasts, movies, dances, pea

entertained the "damn Yankees" and
stray rebels (who insisted they stayed
to study, but who knows?)
After advertising that they would

Hobson Says It Feels Good
To Be Outside Jail Again
By Faye Riley
It all began back on a Saturday night
last July when Mack Hobson, a Uni
versity student and editor-elect of the
Carolina Buccaneer, walked into a
crowded dime store in Dunn,' whipped
out .a pistol and emptied it at Alease
Tart, his sweetheart who jilted him.
Two negro women were slightly in
jured when the bullets went wild.
Mack received a four-month sen
tence in the Harnett County jail,
which he completed November 27, by
serving a total of 85 days, the rest of
the time off for good behavior.
Smiling and looking, much better
than before, Mack said it was' wonder
ful to be home on Thanksgiving. "It
feels so good to be outside again." He
grinned as he told that instead of re-

Favors Repeal
Of Johnson Act
If Necessary
Senator Claude Pepper, ardent ex
ponent of President Roosevelt's for
eign policy, last night unreservedly
lashed an appeasement move on the
part of the United States with regard
to dictators and advocated this coun
try's entrance into the warhouki pres
ent aid to Britain prove insufficient.
Declaring that "if all else fails we
shall fight for our country, our insti
tutions, our principles, and our integ
rity" Senator Pepper, Florida New
Deal Democrat, addressed close to a
thousand students, faculty, and towns
people last night in Memorial hall.
The Senator, speaking under the
auspices of the Carolina Political
union, further stated that when Britain
needs our financial aid, "I'm heartily
in favor of repealing the Johnson act
and extending that aid." Pepper is
regarded by some sources as being
close to the Administration and his
speech is considered to reflect the ad
ministration's attitude.
United States
If Britain goes down the United
States will "have to face the terrify
ing force of the totalitarian forces al
most single handed," he said, and since
the two systems can no more exist
than darkness and light in the sama
space because the totalitarian powers
have "a peculiar world of their own
to house, and the temples of democ
racy will not fit in," we must have
great power and vision "to defend the
nation we love."

controls the buying and selling power
of the. world,", we cannot accept his

Sponsored by the North Carolina
Council of Churches, the first state
wide interdenominational student con
ference will convene Friday evening in
Greensboro with representatives from
all colleges arid junior colleges in the
state expected to attend.
With "Adventures in Applied Chris
tianity" as a theme, the conference will
feature addresses by W. J. Faulkner,
dean of men at Fiske university; Ar
thur Raper, social science analyst for
the U. S. Department of Agriculture;
Roy McCorkle, executive secretary of

Dr. Paul Braisted, program secretary
of the Edward W. Hazen foundation.
Fifteen discussion groups will meet
twice on Saturday, led by outstanding
religious leaders. Topics for these
groups include "The Christian Atti
tude towards War," "The Purpose of
Higher Education," "Christian Faith
and Democracy," and "Christianity
and the College Experience."
Limited to a total attendance of 300,
the conference is organized according:

largest quota with 15 representatives
allotted.

jail, he was given a Persian kitten
which had kept him so much company
while serving his sentence.
Well-known and well-liked for his
outstanding work here at the Univers

telegrams of encouragement from stu
dents. He said it made him especially
happy for his friends and fellow stu
dents to "stand by him" and he wishes
to thank every one of them.
Likes Tar an' Feathers
The Tar an' Feathers made a hit
with Mack. He said that it was an ex

the "best man for the job." Mack fears
that the new magazine will slip back
into the tracks of the Buccaneer and
become just a Buccaneer with a new
