Not even staggered by a 52-6 defeat, about one third of the stu- dent body met the incoming team on Franklin Street and gave Coach Ray Wolf a regular "Knute Rockne" recep tion. A mile long caravan of student and faculty cars drove out beyond Carrboro and swamped the incoming bus, but the majority of the reception committee sat on the pavement of Franklin Street while two cheerleaders and a few mem bers of the band furnished noise and music As the busses arrived the reception ists rushed down the street and began yelling, "We want Coach Wolf." When Wolf stepped out of the bus towering over the crowd on stalwart shoulders he said, "It's kinda hard to talk," followed by, "This could only happen at Carolina." "Next week," Coach Wolf promised, "will be a little different." Dr. Frank Graham, found time to be present and spurred the reception on by saying, "Let's win those next five games." With red ' flares illuminating the scene punctuated by firecrackers the group marched up the street chanting "Beat Wake Forest," while traffic was held back by the cooperative police force. , Phi Initiations Scheduled for Meeting Tonight The Phi Assembly will hold its reg ular weekly meeting tonight in the Phi hall on the fourth floor of New East at 7:30.

An important factor in student gov ernment, the honor council reviews cases of freshmen violations of the Honor System. If the case is an im portant one, it may go directly to the Student council, but in minor offenses, the Freshman Honor council reviews the case and recommends a decision. In any event, final judgment always rests with the Student council."

America wanted to continue on a "business-as-usual" basis. Fur thermore the people wouldn't ac cept the all-out pleaif the Ad ministration. There, Wayne Coy charged yesterday, were the es sential reasons why American production might be lagging. The general defense coordina tor, interviewed in the Carolina Inn yesterday afternoon, hesitated for a moment, then plunged into the task of explaining American production on a war time basis. "Had there been a more-out effort," production would have speeded up, he 'said.

Thousands of tanks, hundreds of bombers, and disguised Nazi parachut ists were thrown against the barricaded former capital, now a fortress. But, the Germans were said to be engaged heavily about sixty miles west of the city where counter attacks stopped them Monday.

D.

Maybe you'll do it for me and see to it that the Jboys 'get it.' "Sometimes these things help out! See RICHARDSON, page U Action Must Be Speeded OEM Director Says Cooperation Vital for Defense Wayne Coy solemnly declared last night, "I pray God my coun try is awake," as he pointed out that the task of this country is to build a government "strong enough to meet the complicated difficulties we face." The 36-year old Office of Emergency Management director vigorously declared that there is no "ready made solution" for our current problems. 'Our problem today," he said, "is to keep our Government channeled in the direction of democracy." Answering questions of possible subjugation of democracy in view of severe national pressure, Coy main tained that through intelligent public administrators, and through the "per sistent attention, the continuous in ventiveness of our citizens;" the job of national defense will be done effici ently. The Job of Government "The job of the government," Coy maintained, "requires securing for the 130 million free men and women the great democratic traditions the quali ties of freedom and tolerance of its country." Coy, who spoke under the auspices of the Carolina Political union assert ed that the idea is prevalent that guns and planes and tanks and ships "would sprout like weeks if once a one-man director with powers of omniscience were put in charge." He added though, "Seasoned public administrators have learned, I think . . . that it is human beings, limited, See LEND-LEASE, page 4 Graham to Address WC Alumni Tonight There will be an alumnae dinner to-' night for the alunmae of the Woman's College at 6:30 in the Carolina Inn.

At 16 Shirlie started her ballet car eer under Martha Graham, outstand-' ing American dancer.

Mrs. Frank Graham, production chairman, urges all coeds to aid the work shop in this task. About one hundred Chapel Hill and Carrboro women are engaged in fulfill ing the local quota, which was estab lished by the Red Cross, but "two hun dred would be useful," Mrs. Vida Grum man, vice-chairman of production an nounced. The garments produced by the work shop are sent to the National Red Cross shipping center in Jersey City, N. J., where they are bundled into lots and snipped to the various countries m need of supplies.

The work shop, located in the base ment of the Zoology building, is fur nished with about a dozen sewing ma chines and work tables. University co operation, in the supply of heat, light and electric current, has aided the bene fit organization.
