Sixth Season With Met Now entering her sixth season with the Metropolitan opera association, Miss Jepson made her debut in the Philadelphia orchestra's presentation of Das Rheingold. She sang the part of one of the Rhein Maidens. Her first important operatic role was that of Nedda in "Pagliacci." Her Metropolitan debut was made opposite Lawrence Tibbett in 1936. Before she signed a contract with the opera association she sang on a radio program with Paul Whiteman and his orchestra. Miss Jepson isn't temperamental and is thoroughly American. She likes to hunt and fish and raises rabbits as a hobby. She is now singing a concert tour covering 50 cities which "seems childs play after the Chautau qua days." Her program tomorrow night will include three Shakespearian settings, "If Music Be The Food Of Love," "When Daisies Died," and "It Was A Lover And His Lass," by Clifton, Arne and Morley. The aria' willow song, from "Othello" by Verdi will also be sung. Hugo Wolf's songs "Und Willst Du Deinen Leibsten Sterben Sehen," "In Dem Schatten Meiner Locken," "Mig non," and "Er Ist's" will be given. Other number are Berners' "Funeral March of a Statesman," "Ondine" by Ravel and two arias from "Manon" by Massenet. Robert Wallenborn will play a solo number "Telemann Fu gue" by Reger. After intermission Miss Jepson will sing "L'Invitation Au Voyage" by Dupare, "Le Matin" by Koechlin, "Le Nelumbo" by Moret and the Mirror song from "Thais" by Massenet. The concluding numbers on the pro gram will be "April Children," by Clive Carey, "Vocaliee" by Rachman inoff, "If You Have Forgotten," a manuscript by Elinor Remick Warren and "Journey's End," a. manuscript written by Wilton Mason, a graduate student at the University. Whiffing Alcohol . . . Yesterday's seeming symptoms of a potential epidemic were dispelled to day since only seven students were admitted to the infirmary, whereas 18 were admitted yesterday. The following seven students have renounced the fragrance of the wistful perfume of blooming daffodils and japonica for the more pungent odor of alcohol ip the infirmary: Gail Davidson, Jean Lindsay, Ann Bord ers, Claude George, Charles Gordon, Henry Smernoff, and Raymond Owens.

Profs Oppose Revision of Regulations English Department Action Criticized By Students, Faculty By Sylvan Meyer A volcanic eruption of complaints and commendations, cries of regimen tation and groans of totalitarianism, greeted the news yesterday that the English department has clamped down on attendance rules and that the rest of the faculty is considering a general revamping. "Too miich trouble taking the roll,; some professors said. "They really oughtta come to class," others thought. Anyway, as the furore grew louder, so did the squawks, so did the ranks of people with different ideas on the matter. Wells Statement . Professor William Wells told his sophomore English class yesterday, quite logically, that if he could get 4to an 8:30 Saturday class, they could. This seems to be the concensus among many instructors. Enforce the rules, they claim, because the number of cuts last quarter was altogether un reasonable. , If we are going to hold classes, say the folks who make the rules, stu dents should attend. They can still take their three cuts, at 'their own risk of course, but "they are here un der an educational system that de- mands they come to class," assert the profs, and "they cannot derive the full benefit of the course unless they attend class." So thinks the English department, the Latin department which has never allowed cuts at all, and several other faculty members who "didn't want their names in the paper." Others said, also off the record, but along the theme that "if they pay for their education and don't want it I personally don't give a d . Be cause, there is a lot of material in this course and calling the roll is a waste of time." Students opined that they didn't care to go to school with the thread ed sword dangling perpetually over their heads. DTH editorialler Bill Snider stated that he thinks the mat ter of absences should be left to the discretion of the individual instruc tor, wonders why they didn't just let things alone. The "things" means the habit in practice of having the rules on the books but just forgetting them in actual cases. In response to a suggestion pro posing unlimited cut allowances, the Chicago University system, Art Link, Di president, said, "There would be a lot of students taking advantage of such a method. I think that if a stu dent is doing good work he should be allowed unlimited cuts until his work falls off, if it does. Students who are really interested will attend class regardless of rules. But if a man can make A's and B's without going to class, I see no reason why he should. In other words, leave the matter up to the individual prof." Tantamount to shipping papers are the rejuvenated rules in the eyes of many students who make fair grades, just can't get out of bed Saturday morning, or want, to take an occasion al weekend. Not one student interviewed liked the new system. Majority were strong ly opposed, many griped passively. With both cheers and groans readied in their larynges students await the word from the committee studying at tendance rules while they read the papers thanking their stars they go to school in an individual's America. BASEBALL (Continued from page three) ...... . i ed by George Radman and Jim Mal lory remain unfilled, except for the shift of Hal Jennings to center. The two-year veteran lends speed and ex perience to that position, and yester day socked out a homer, the only one of the day, as if to indicate that his form at the plate will approach that of his sophomore year, when he hit well up in the .300s. Al Mathes will probably go to left field and right field will be shared by Bob Saunders, Bo Reynolds, Bob Smith and any others that Coach Hearn wishes to look over in competition. This trio will doubtless be used as -alternates for Jennings and Mathes. This combination leaves a team of four eeniors Mathes, Browning, Rich and Jennings and two juniors Jones and Myers with the remainder to be. taken by sophomores. Oswald, filling in the place left by Matty Topkins, so far leads other second basemen, and Bob Saunders, hardest-hitting 1 1 - -: .- t I NORTH AMERICAN TRAINERS, like the one pictured above, were used in the training of three former Uni versity students, Joseph H. Boone, Fayetteville ('37-'39); Walter J. Broadwell, Jr., Angier ('40); and Calvin H. Smith, Greensboro ('34-'37), members of the largest class ever to graduate from Randolph Field, Texas, the "West Point of the Air." Four hundred and ten student pilots have completed 10 weeks at the nation's largest basic training center. On March 14, they departed for their final 10 weeks of training at advanced flying bases. National Defense Program Expected To Call 80,000 Men From Nation's Universities -s Cashier's Office Issues Schedule Payment of tuition should be made in the cashier's office in the basement of South building according to the following schedule, T. H. Evans, Uni versity cashier, announced yesterday. Bills held by students with registra tion numbers from one through 1599 are already due. Today numbers from 1600 to 4999 are due. On March 27 numbers 5000 through 5999 will be due. Numbers 6000 to 6899 will fall due on March 28 and on March 29 numbers 6900 . to 7199 are scheduled. Students are requested to stop by the cashier's office early on March 29 as the office closes at noon. Next Monday, March 31, the sched ule calls for all numbers from 7200 to 10199. April 1 numbers 10200 to 10999 inclusive are called and on April 2 numbers 11000 to 61299 are due. Failure to pay or to make proper arrangements for payments during the pay period will result in a five dol lar fee for delayed payment. Bookkeeping Course Offered This Quarter A special course in bookkeeping is offered this quarter by Professor R. H. Sherrill of the Department of Eco nomics and Commerce. It is intended to provide an introduction to this sub ject for students who do not expect to return to the University next fall or who have definite plans which will prevent them from taking the more complete courses in accounting in the School of Commerce. The course will be presented in three hours of lectures and two hours of laboratory work each week through out the quarter. The class will have two. meetings per week for two and one-half hours each meeting. The first meeting will be tomorrow at 7:30 p. m. and all meetings will be in the eve ning in Bingham 303. , It is a non-credit course, not count ing toward a degree in any curricu lum. For purposes of determining the amount of academic work in the nor mal student's schedule of from fifteen to twenty hours, the course will be regarded as equivalent to four hours. The cost of the course will be a uni form fee of twelve dollars plus books and materials. A minimum of sixteen students will be required. Students who are interested in taking this course are invited to see Dean Spruill in 308 South before 1 o'clock on Thurs day, March 27. man on last year's freshman club, are the only second-year men successful in breaking in the line-up. Close battles for several positions will probably follow this initial game. Bobby Gersten and Jimmy Howard re turned yesterday after their basket ball trip, and both are considered threats in the infield, Gersten at short and Howard at second. Mike Bobbitt and Bob Smith, seniors, returned to the outfield. Carolina and Springfield played un officially, yesterday in a practice game in which ten men went to bat each frame. Les Tomlinson hurled for the Tar Heels, holding the New Engend ers well. St. John's university is offering 25 fellowships, assistantships and schol arships to graduates of accredited colleges or universities. : i't Survey Discloses 10 Will Not Return in Fall Colleges and universities over the nation will lose 11 per cent of their male students to Uncle Sam's defense pi'ogram this summer, if these stu dents today accurately prognosticate their future, Student Opinion Surveys of America disclosed in the results of a national sampling. Projected against the total enrollment in col leges today, this figure suggests that more than 80,000 college men believe they will either be called by their local draft boards or else they will volunteer for their year's service in stead of returning to school in the fall. Because of the Selective Service Act provision permitting deferment until June 1 for all men 21 or over enrolled in school, very few under graduates have already- entered into their year of military training. 10 Pe?Cent Not to Return to School Besides" the 11 per cent above, nearly 10 per cent are not planning to return to school next year, but do not believe they will be drafted or will volunteer. Nearly four-fifths of the students now in school believe they will return for at least one more year's study. This study should not be interpreted to mean that college enrollments will be depleted by 11 per cent. This figure is merely an indica tion as to how much the defense pro gram is liable to affect the college male. The exact percentages, as found by the Surveys through interviews taken on the scores of campuses participat ing in the poll, are as follows: Will volunteer or be drafted 11.2' Will Return to College 79.2 Will Do Neither 9.6 (This tabulation does not include the 6 who are undecided.) Slightly more than a year -ago, in February, 1940, the Surveys found 81 per cent of the nation's college stu. dents opposed to passage of a bill by Congress requiring ' every able-bodied young man 20 fears of age to enter a year's training in the Army or Navy.
