First of all, it must make its proper contribution to the defense program of the government!. Its research facilities and laboratories must develop technical skills and perfect new devices today 'the precision gauge is mightier than the sword It must furnish proper physical training to prepare its students for the arduous tasks ahead. It must furnish skilled leadership. It must band its energies, as never before, to the education of ordinary citizens for service in a democracy. "It must clear the meaning of democracy its responsibilities as well as its privileges--and show wherein it is superior to other systems of government. It must teach what America has meant in the past and the promise it holds for the future. It must not be afraid to show in what ways American practices should be modi field to serve present needs. "Especially is it the task of the colleges to look beyond the pre sent crisis to maintain intellectual freedom, to guide students through perplexities of thought and action, to point the way to the irood life, to educate the whole man, to preserve the eternal values. "Some persons are beginning to question whether the small , liberal college can survive under present conditions. It will not, unless it can make some real contribution to the society which created it; "But if it meets the challenge of the heavy demands made upon it, it will survive. If , in a crucial emergency, it not only educates for action but trains for contemplation, it must survive. For it will have remembered that students will be individuals in a society Inner afffr fViPV PPJISP tn he soldiers." Ginn and company, "What AVAi) mA.

Gala Senior Week. o Peck and Pep Rallies It is unfortunate and decidedly unlike Carolina that the spring sports program has not received more f ullhearted support from the student body. In order to correct this condition and arouse more student interest in the few varsity matches left on the slate this year, Steve Peck, newly elected head of the University club, has planned a huge pep rally to be held in Emerson stadium next Tuesday night. Peck is off to a good start, and it would be well for other new campus off icers to do likewise. On Wednesday the Carolina baseball team will take a little pleasure jaunt over to Durham and, we hope, wrest the Conference Champion ship from Duke. Tickets for the game wiH be sold to students at half price, and it is hoped that as many Tar Heel rooters as possible will follow the team to those foreign parts and hold up their side of winning a victory. But everybody who has a stout pair of lungs, all thos"e students who voted for Curry Jones for cheerleader and want to make his initial rally a success, and above all everyone who is interested in having Carolina beat Duke, should be on hand in Emerson stadium Tuesday night at 7:30 to give our baseball team the rousing send-off they deserve. Senior Week And The Future Almost four years ago a group of green kids arrived on the campus ready to find out what college was all about. Many of them have been left behind, but those who maintained the pace have gained greatly in friendships. Now seniors are beginning to re gret the approaching end of their college careers ; there is a cer tain sorrow about saying goodbye to a host of friends. Next week has been set aside as Senior Week for the seniors. Banquets, parties, sport events and other activities will make, up six days of happiness. These will be followed by junior-seniors on Friday and Saturday. For many of Carolina's proud seniors, it will be the last time they will have a chance to gather together. The future is dark, and what it holds is an unknown quantity. Seniors who are faced with fighting a war do not have the same opportunities awaiting them as the youth who graduated one, three, five or ten years ago. But where there is hope, there will be success. Seniors, we salute you! We congratulate you for the fine stand that you are taking. And to start things off right, we sug gest that you participate to the fullest in senior week. It will be an occasion that you will never forget. Editorial Headline: "Vaudeville Is Hardly Dead." A recent stage show in Durham bears out that statement. It's the actors. See bv the naDers , where Hitler says he can lick the whole world with one hand tied behind his back. With PATH? t6 'of German i army. And FDR stated AUUL that the United States On Other Campuses From was ready to fight again, too. Even if it has to be for Democracy. With all this pugalistic chatter we feel that we ought to be allowed to put in our two cents, .too. But all we can say Is . . . My God, here we go again.

Campus Comment of the Syracuse Daily Orange boldly states that "War only destroys." In this era of severe international stress we should not make statements blandly without weighing both sides.

Freshman Cuts It is much easier to criticize cau stically than to criticize constructive ly, but even the easier course leaves one at a loss to cope with this ex cerpt from the Pitt News: "For the purpose of declaring it unconstitu tional for judges to declare laws un constitutional, an ICG informal meet ing, will take place under the auspices of ICG. "At 3:30 o'clock in 132 Cathedral, the group will meet in 132 Cathedral at 3:30 o'clock.

Gordon, Elizabeth Byrd Peeler, Lackey Boggs Wallace, Samuel Reuben WeatherfordWade S Jr. Weiss, Andrew Mortimer MAGAZINE REVIEW By Charles Barrett The editor of the April issue of tie Carolina Mag has admonished the re viewer not to "lop our heads eff hs the guillotine of make-up chaos." Okeh, we will overlook the fact that turning to find an article on pays 30, we have to scout all over the back end of the magazine. We will see if there isnt sufficient justification t lop off somebody's head on other grounds. There are three significant points about the April issue the beginning of Sylvan Meyer's monthly diatribe on what happened two months ago the failure to follow ex-editor Spies' policy of keeping the magazine read able and meaningfull for a majority of the campus; and the sudden and inexplicable scarcity of cartoons, a highlight of the other issues this year. Mr. Meyer's "The Month in Re view" is an interesting experiment and perhaps shouldn't be judged too severely on the first effort. We would advise, however, that the writer try to uncover some central theme, some single event or series of events, that will bundle the re view together and avoid the hap hazard rambling of this month's column. More important, the writer should struggle against the sopho moric tendency to tear down with hallowed Time-style sarcasm every event, organization, and attitude ob the campus during the past month. A good newsman should sift from the train of happenings those that are really important, and comment on them without trying to demon strate his cleverness and superior ity. Next, the April issue is a reversion back to the old type magazine too full of articles which the writers imagine are highly intellectual but which are completely meaningless to a great majority of the magazine's readers. Ed Kantrowitz "After Agar" and Simon Roof's "Guinea Pigs" are the worst examples. We are not, as Mr. Kantrowitz' charges, red-blooded . college students wb& must avoid anything "heavy" or "in tellectual." But we cannot see the value of some youngster who has a book or two or had a course or tw setting himself up as a guiding light whose words (usually vague and in comprehensible to all but himself) be offers to the campus as the wisdom of the mighty which will save tire masses from their pitiful plight. We listened-with intense interest to every word that Mr. Agar had to say but we felt that Mr. Kantrowitz' post-mortem was somewhat wasted. There is a difference between the two men. It is possible, however, that every now and then a magazine editor ca discover an "intellectual" article fey a student that will contain a real con tribution to other students. These are very rare, but we believe Lee Wiggins comes as near to the goal as anyone we have read. His AprS piece is not as good as some of his others, ass? he still tends to wander up among the clouds at the end, but yet he has something meaningful to say. Bill Joslin's article also seentfl to be an unusually clear and helpf discussion by a student of a topi very difficult for a student to contri bute much on. Don Bishop's adequate stady f student editorial freedom, Bucky Harward's somewhat vapid treatise on the amazing Mr. Carmichael, and Miss McMaster's parting shot at the wide ranks of WA critics are not wonderful or inspiring articles, but they are of the general nature and subject matter that if carried out more effectively could make the magazine interesting to the people it allegedly is written for. and make it play a more significant part in the life of the community it lives in. Fiction in the magazine never has been .and never will be particularly good, but the stories by James Cos and Henry Moll in this month's issue fulfill the purpose' of fiction in the magazine giving students an oppor" tunity for creative expression airtl aren't too much of a strain on the reading habit. But next time, editor, let's don't leave out the cartoons.
