Doctors Stress
Infirmary Rules
Students have become lax in ob

cians at the health service said yes
terday.
Doctors have electrocardiograms,
X-rays, laboratory experiments, and
numerous clinical duties to perform in
addition to examining ailing students,

At Convoys for Aid Ships
German Blitzkrieg
In Greece Stalled
By British Forces
By United Press
WASHINGTON, April 24 With
out mentioning United States con
voys, two ranking cabinet officers
Secretary of State Cordell Hull and
Secretary of Navy Frank Knox said
tonight that United States aid to
Great Britain must reach its destina
tion and ways will be found to do
this.
"Aid must be supplied without hesi
tation to Great Britain and those
other countries that are resisting the
sweep of general conflagration," Hull
said in an address to the American
Society of International Law. "This
policy means the practical applica
tion that such aid must reach its des
tination in the shortest of time and in
maximum quantity so ways must be
found to do this."
Knox, speaking at New York before
the annual dinner of the Bureau of
Advertising of the American News
paper Publishers Association, de
clared :
"Hitler cannot allow our war sup
plies, and food to reach England; he
will be defeated if they do. We can
not allow our ships to be sunk in the
Atlantic; we shall be beaten if they
are. We must make our promise good
tc give aid to Britain. We must see
the job through. This is our fight."

Recount Called
Again for
DTH Editor
Campbell's Lead
Drops; Tabulation
For Hobbs Verified
The Student Council yesterday all
but wrote finis to Tuesday's elections
by announcing the ratification of all
nine amendments to the Student Leg
islature constitution and, after double
recounts, by shifting a few votes to
losing candidates but not reversing
the original decisions.
Since only 2152 students voted on
the legislature amendments, the 1169
who approved all nine made it un
necessary for the Council to tally split
voting on the proposals.
Recount on Editorship
Only the race for Tar Heel editor
will have to stand another recount
this afternoon. Orville Campbell now
stands with a 4-vote lead instead of
the 10-ballot margin he had over Louis
Harris Tuesday night. Present totals
now rest at 1229 to 1225. Harris was
only one vote behind after the recount
on three of the four precincts, but
Campbell came through with three
extra tallies in the tabulation of the
Graham Memorial polls.
Hobbs' original edge of 41 votes for
student body president dwindled to
34. A recount of the , first precinct
picked up 10 tallies for Ferebee Tay
lor, but in subsequent counting he
gradually dropped back until the final
totals stood at 1265 to 1231.
Jean McKenzie retained her 13-vote
lead over Breezy Breazeale for secre
tary of the senior class despite a shift
in the vote totals. Tuesday's count
was 327 to 314; yesterday afternoon's
was 325 to 312.
Goodman's Lead Increases
Ray Goodman, sophomore repre
sentative to the Student Council, saw
his 8-ballot edge over Wade Weather
ford increase to 22, as the final count
mounted to 287 to 265.
Most significant in the passage of
the student legislature amendments
was the student body approval of the
student fees proposal, which transfers
