For This Ittus: News: BOB HOKE Sports: MARK GARNER o The Future Is Now When students mark an (x) either for sending or not sending aid to Russia, in the CPU poll today, the results will surprisingly be significant. r Though no epoch-waking events will follow whether the stu dents at the University of North Carolina vote for a stiff or vacil lating policy toward Japan, the stakes in what H0TJA3E students are thinking today bear a great im THINK portance in the world that will shape up about us in the next few years. A quarterly venture on the part of the Carolina political union, non-partisan group fostering interest in national and international affairs, the poll reaches new heights of meaning in times as these. A very legitimate question is asked by most college students today. They look at blaring headlines each morning of a new Nazi offensive in the Ukraine, or read of the President's extension of Social Security. Nearer home, they discover that hair-cuts, meals, and other costs on the campus have risen. They realize that our nation, our state, and our University are all facing a crisis, but they normally, and rightfully ask, "Well, what can we, as young students, away from the direct effects of the war, what can we do about it?" To answer this query today, we only have to take a fleeting look at the nation and the people within it. For the past year, President Roosevelt has been moving closer toward armed conflict with the aggressor totalitarian nations. He has admitted many times; how ever, that public opinion and dissention, spurred on by America Firsters and other groups in disagreement with the Administra tion's policies, has held him back from making it a real all-out effort. - Public opinion a familiar phrase in our day of Gallup polls and political races. Yet, it is perhaps the very core of our democra cy in such a crisis. Today, when students vote on the pertinen national issues of the day in the CPU poll, they should stop and realize that what they have to say HAS some weight in shaping the policy of our government. There is more: today, we are merely college students. Tomor row, we will be soldiers, sailors, service men of all sorts, and most of us just plain citizens at large. As we ascend to places of promi nence in our communities and our state later on, our importance in forming public opinion will be greater. The rub comes, in that we cannot then begin thinking about the problems of our nation. We have to begin today, simply because our country is first facing a crisis, and second, because snap judgments have never been sound opinions. 1 So stop and consider the importance of ballot today. Individuals might bear the brunt of blame in history books, but all of us bear the crushing brunt of defeat and injury when catastrophe falls upon our nation."

Editorially Speaking By The Editor o In Passing Despite the fact that a good many students list themselves in the student directory as Druids or some such pagan creed, most University students are affiliated with some organized religion. And most of them have been church goers at home, because of proper parental encouragement. Here at Carolina, no one forces students to attend any religious services. Consequently, students too of ten forget that one does go to church on Sundays. Too, a lot of students want to use Sun day for "sleeping day." Every church has an organization here at Chapel Hill. It might be a pretty good idea to get up a little earlier Sunday and go to church. Go with a couple of friends. You'd probably be agree ably surprised and might find that you'd been missing something and didn't know it. O Periodic classroom criticism of the Daily Tar Heel in general and of its columnists in particular seems to have become a "tradi tion" with certain Carolina professors. A good deal of the cen sure, pointing out factual and philosophic inaccuracies is prob ably deserved and well intended. We appreciate their interest and their suggestions. However, we would like to have them make concrete criticisms of specific material, trying to avoid generali zations, so that we can take advantage' of those suggestions and publish a better Tar Heel. o . Some guys are good guys and some guys steal penny candy in the dorm stores. There is a more important consideration, how ever at Carolina we practice the Honor Code. We're still pretty green at this job of being editor. We're plugging along and managing to get the paper out, but down deep we're not certain if we're on the right track. A newspaper, it seems, is just like a country at war. It can't last very long, it won't have many supporters, and it won't be respected if it just "muddles through." It must take a definite stand. It must fight for the principles it believes right regardless of who is against it. The whirl of pre-registration, regis tration, changing programs, receptions, etc., has slackened and the campus has the time and we hope the desire to keep themselves informed of what is happening out beyond Chapel Hill. Face the Facts When we ran for editor we went on record against given our editorial col umns any space corcerning world prob lems. Since then we've changed our opinion simply because we've decided that those problems are our problems. We've got to face them sooner or later. Why not now? The Daily Tar Heel will continue to take a definite stand on all campus problems and from time to time will voice its opinions on world affairs. Now, this is not going to be an easy job, discussing all these problems. Our readers are college students and pro fessors. They are not the type of read er to whom some of the metropolitan papers address their arguments. We can't get by around here influencing our readers with name-calling, half- truths, jingoism and the like. We have an intelligent audience, though prob ably not as well informed as it should be. America's Problem is Ours' Now, as to the decision. If we are not to straddle the fence, which side will we take? Things have changed since 1918. America has gotten herself in volved in a very complicated world situation. We are all part of one sovereign na tion and must sooner, or later face the question of what part we, as the world's greatest democracy, are to play in the eventually necessary defeat of Hitler and the readjustment of the society of nations. We are now involved to the extent that we are supplying the tools of war in increasing amounts to England and Russia. Our men are stationed in Ice- and, a scant 700 miles the distance brm one end of our state to the other. Sink on Sight We are patrolling the seas between this country and Iceland with orders to "sink on sight" any enemy raider or submarine. To protect the materials we are ship ping to England we will soon be arm ing our merchant ships and probably convoying ships across the Atlantic. Right now this is the best way we can best help win this war. Don't Send Army They do not need our army. They are having a hard time keeping up the morale of the Canadian soldiers in Eng land. They are even shipping some of them back to Canada since they can find nothing for them to do. It is our opinion that this country's part can best be played by speeding up our own national defense, legally repealing the restricted Neutrality Act, increasing our aid to Britain, control ling the strikes tying up our industries, and generally following the broad out line of the policy formulated by the administration. We should not jump into a war for which we are not yet prepared, and in which we are not yet needed, but we should be ready to play our part when the time comes. Physics CIiiB The Undergraduate Physics Club will meet tonight at 7:30 in Room 250 Phillips.' Send the DAILY TAR HEEL home Campus Keyboard By The Staff A COED'S VIEWPOINT We've all been Americans with a trim and wigger since Kate Smith and God blessed us, and we're all doing our part even if we don't like knitting. But lets get down to brass buttons about this soldier situation. We think it would be phenomenal if somebody who runs along Elsa Maxwell lines literally, not f i gu ra ti vely speak ingwere to organ ize a few dances a- round here on week-ends where the boys in khaki would meet coeds. Most of the girls want to be friendly but even friendship limits. They don't like be ing picked up, nor does the 7-1 ratio make them over-eager to be blind-folded on a date. We're patriotic and all that, and well string along with FDR, but we won't be stung! We're undecided that we can trust our preparatory training. Now and again we have cut a few classes be cause oh, well, why should we let the campus use our excuses free. Anyway, it. seems we have done the unpardon able by skipping a quiz, so we shine up a red apple and give it to the prof. He not only relents, but smiles when he says it, all of which goes to show that you may learn more tricks after grammar school, but the old dogs still go for the old ones.. O Not to be Grotzely negligent,we give you the Quacker's Grotz for the day. It chanced that a prospective pledge sends his tentative frat bills to papa, who wires back, "DEAR SON DON'T BUY ANY MORE FRATERNITIES"! , Q Everybody's beginning to look for ward to the Fordham game. And don't ask if we can a-Ford it? Us and Fish Worley gave them a square dance in New York last year, and we think it only fair that they import a collapsible version of the Stork Club this season. We could set it up in the Tin Can with the aelp of all the fresh men who're making good, and with peo ple like Boots Thompson and Dot Cut ting for entertainers we'd probably have the vanquished trying to occupy our territory and suing for a separate peace It's Wonderful, Father Divine. STORK CLUB That liifty, intriguing poster in the passageway of Graham Memorial re minds us that the Grill is to open for unch today with a fanfare of trumpets. A little bit tardy in grabbing off some of the student trade, it will be operated as a subsidy of the University dining hall cafeteria and managed by super efficient E. F. Coo- GRILL, lej- WrIey Can W seen standing around in the background with a beaming smile on his face, we imagine conjuring up visions of a square dance floor show for the eatery. Quiet, affable Sam Morton, head of the institution in past years, is seeking bigger game along the restaurant line in Virginia S. S. O In the Animal Lover's Division we've found four seeing-eye dogs who're help ing four students get around at Caro lina. We all love puppies, and we all love to pet dogs natcherly. But ac cording to best reports, we're not to distract the pooches when they're work ing. "Imagine walk ing in and patting Dr. Graham on the head in the middle of a conference," Hazel Long, who runs around with one of the dogs, suggested. What wont this generation think of next?
