Steve Peck, president of the Uni versity club, has arranged to have Coach Johnny Vaught . speak at the rally and introduce the team. Co captains Carl Suntheimer and Harry Dunkle, and Frank O'Hare and Dick Sieck will speak on the program. "I've been talking to members of the coaching staff," Peck said, "and they say that South Carolina is high ly regarded. They want to win this game and will be hard to beat." Peck said that the rally would be over in plenty of time for those who are going to the Coed Ball tonight. "Let's all turn out tonight and make this rally one of the best ever," Peck said. "We want to show Coach Wolf that the 12th man on his squad is just as ready for the game as is his team."

Grail To Hold First Dance Satterfield Plays For Informal Hop Johnny Satterfield and his band will play for the first Grail dance of the year tomorrow night from 9 until 12 o'clock in Woollen gym, ex chequer George Coxhead announced yesterday. The dance will be informal and ad mission charge for Doth stags ana couples will be $1.10. Frosh Not Admitted As in previous years, freshmen will not be permitted to attend because of the impending rush season. The execu tive committee of the Interfraternity council held a special meeting last night to consider the Grail's request that first yearmen be allowed to come but then decided to maintain the ruling. Satterfield, who took over Charlie Wood's band last fall, played engage ments off and on the campus last year and started off the current season by supplying swing for the freshman smoker. The band plays best on blues ar rangements, many of which are the original work of Satterfield himself front man and pianist, and Frank Jus tice, lead sax. Real Swing John Hammond, best swing critic in the country, judged Satterfield's band runnerup in the contest here last spring but also declared that the bandleader had as true a conception See GRAIL, fage 4 Frosh, Soph Attendance Regulations Listed Regulations Governing Attendance of Freshman and Sophomore Courses in the Departments of Botany; Chem istry; Economics (21-22-23, 31-32); English (1-2-3, 22-23-24, 41, 42); French; Geography; German; Greek (below 50); History (20, 21-22-23); Hygiene; Latin (below 50); Mathe matics; Natural Science 1; Natural Science 2; Natural Science 3C; Naval Science; Physical Education; Physics; Political Science; Psychology; Social Science; Sociology; Spanish; and Zo ology were released yesterday by South Building.

Legislature To Meet Next Week By Paul Komisaruk Tight-lipped legislative leaders be gan setting machiriery in motionyes terday for the legislatures first meet ing of the year, early next week, as feeling grew that a bill preventing students from bringing motor cars to the University would be presented and would find a prominent place on the legislative calander. These restrictive measures, which have already taken place in three New England colleges Amherst, Williams, and Wheaton have been termed a "blessing in disguise" by the Baltimore Evening Sun. On Problem s It was felt in some quarters that the bill, presented ostensibly to pre vent the usage of gasoline and thus help preserve the nation's supply, was merely being a welcome excuse for "attacking a problem which is much older than that of gasoline consump- j tion". j The Sun explained that nine other institutions including, Harvard are putting the matter up to their students in the form of a request, and went on to remark that the "motor car has extended the range of college stu dents," has given the deans something else to worry about, has ruined eve nings for many serious minded stu dents, and has increased the dangers to students because of hurried week end visiting trips of friends and rel atives. Commenting on the measures taken by the New England schools, the Sun said, "The ban, whatever the excuse for it, should be of considerable value if it serves to reduce the impatience of undergraduates to leave their un hurried lives in the colleges, for the hurried life of the outside world which, in any event, they experience all too soon." Campus Budgets Certain also to appear on the legis lative dockets during the first few weeks are the budgets of campus or ganizations which must be . approved by th eLegislature. Coming under surveillance will be the annual re quests from the Debate Council, the PU Board, the four campus publica tions, and the classes. Also headed for the calendar are two bills concerning elections. The first would set up machinery for the fast approaching freshman elections and the second would deal with con duct of future campus-wide elections, This action arising out of the disorder and complications of last spring's cam paign. Keutzer Calls Meeting Monday Of Glee Club Professor Clyde E. Keutzer an nounced yesterday afternoon that the first meeting of the University Men's Glee Club will be held in Hill Music hall on Monday night at 8 o'clock.

Although actual try-outs for the new men are not scheduled until Wednesday, it is imperative that all interested students be on hand for the group's first meeting. Number of Vacancies A number of outstanding men from last year's successful club have grad uated and as a result there are a num ber of openings for freshmen and up per classmen alike who have talent. Keutzer, when asked about this year's prospects, termed them "ex cellent" and let word drop to the ef fect that the club was already sched uled for a broadcast direct from Town Hall in New York's Radio City this coming spring, in addition to the annual spring trip, a number of other worthwhile tours are being mapped out.

There is no cost for participation.- IS ' i-Zf i " JWWW .y,,, I Memorial Hall Convocation Slated for 10:30 Carolina embarking on what ha3 been labeled "its greatest test" of ficially opens, this morning with a long heralded address "by President Frank P. Graham, an address which looms as the most important in recent Carolina history, the beginning of the Univer sity's campaign to become "the na tion's college." Subject Not Known The speech, slated for 10:30 in Me morial hall, will be the first message delivered by Chapel Hill's President since last spring, and administrative leaders last night offered no key to the subject of the address. Early this morn ing it was still not definite that Dr. Graham would be able to leave his business-buried desk in Washington where pressing problems of national defense and strike mediation have kept him for the past year. Dr. Graham, already noted as one of the foremost educators in the coun try, has been credited within the past ew months as doing the most outstand ing work on the board. The 148th convocation, marking the completion of nearly a century and a half of service on the part of the coun try's oldest state university, may go down in contemporary history as the South's leading educator makes his challenge to youth. Classes Shortened Scheduled for an hour, the convoca tion will end at 11:30, with 11 o'clock classes meeting at that time, and end ing at 11:50. Reverend C. M. Jones will give the invocation, and Dean of Administration R. B. House will preside. Arrangement; Browsing Room
