A list of compe tent experts, representing the various sides of the labor problem have been scheduled for a panel discussion Tues day afternoon at 4 o'clock.

It was hinted obliquely that one or more German diplomats would face like action, but Hull said that he could not discuss that matter now. Under the fixed rule of diplomatic protocol, Italy must accept the dictum. Hull advised the Italian government that Iais was "persona non grata" be cause "facts and circumstances" con nected the attache with illegal acts the sabotage of 26 or the 28 Italian ships seized.

BERLIN, April 3 (Friday) Re ports that a British expeditionary force of possibly 350,000 troops is spread across Greece's northern frontier was emblazoned across the Nazi press to day amid a sudden unexplained lull in emphasis on the Yugoslavian-German crisis. Some quarters said that the toning down of the violent press and radio at tacks on the Yugoslavs might be an ominous "quiet before the storm" and German political quarters intimated that only a complete political and mili tary about-face by the Belgrade gov ernment would satisfy the Reich.

With Faculty Dave Morrison's student committee took its first definite action yesterday as it conferred with a faculty sub-committee and recommended that the issue of class absences be left entirely to the individual instructor. In a two-hour bull session with three faculty members who are gathering all information and recommendations possible before the faculty takes final action, the five-man committee aired the. student viewpoint and criticized certain points in the present set up. The suggestion to allow the individ ual instructor to act on his own discre tion in permitting each of students, a certain number of absences was bas ed partly on the student opinion poll conducted last weekend by the Tab Heel. At that time, the poll showed a 38 per cent support for this method over four other alternatives including com plete freedom in class attendance. Two other recommendations were made by the students. One advocated that the first day of classes be made significant enough by instructors that students will realize the need for at tendance. The present monetary pen alty for missing these first classes, in effective for the past two years, should be replaced by some other penalty possibly the counting of a double-cut-it was suggested by the committee. The other recommendation labelled as "disciplinary and unfair" the rule now being enforced by the English de partment that weekend cuts be counted double. Members on the faculty sub-commit tee were H. R. Totten of the botany de partment. S. A. Stoudemire of the ro mance languages department apd G. R. Cof fman of the English department. Presenters of the student view point were student body president Dave Mor rison, Tar Heel editor Don Bishop, Buck Marrow, Jack Emack and Bucky Harward. Prouty To Examine Marble Deposits Dr. W. F.

Hal Pope for vice-president, Sam Sherman for treasurer and Sam Means and Benjie Parker for legislature members completed the senior class slate. Bob Shuford was named to re place George Rue on the party's sopho more legislature ticket because Rue has decided not to return to school next fall. An hour-long debate preceded the convention's vote between Sanford and Bill Ward for speakership of the legislature and Sanford won by one of the smallest margins in this season's SP nominations. Sanford and Harward are the second and third men to receive double nomi nations in this season's political cam paign. Henry Moll, staff nominee for editor of the Mag and Student party candidate was doubly endorsed by the University party this week. Charlie Nelson is the first candidate to. be named to the cheerleader post by either party. Action on this office has; been postponed because of pend ing action on 'proposals that it be re moved from the ballot, but the pro posals were killed by the legislature Monday night. Nelson is now co-head cheerleader with Jane Rumsey as a result of one of the biggest surprise moves in last year's political campaign when the Student party nominated co-head cheerleaders for the first time in his tory and brought coeds into the cheer ing squad. This resulted in one of the first tea pot tempests of the year last fall when objections to coed cheerleaders brought on a week-long furore and subsequent subduing of coed activity on. the squad. Armstrong was nominated by the Tar an' Feathers staff on its second try Tuesday night and last night the Student party followed its tradition of backing staff nominees by' naming him by acclamation. Plans were announced last night for a big party rally next Thursday night in Gerrard hall when all candidates and. delegates will hold some kind of "big celebration" to which the whole campus will be invited.
