Leaders Send Note to Duke Note: Reports have reached Chapel Hill that certain unknourn per sons, perhaps Carolina students, committed wanton acts of deface ment on the Duke stadium sometime Monday night. This report has prompted the following statement: To the President of the Student Body ; and The Editor of The Chronicle Duke University, Durham, N. C. "Rumor has it that certain acts of vandalism and related childish pranks have been perpetrated in the Duke stadium by anonymous parties apparently bent on arousing unwhole some and unbecoming animosities between our two universities on the eve of our annual football game. May we assure you and your fellow students that we express the overwhelming sentiment of our student body and of our football team in particular, when we state that we regret sin cerely such actions as have taken place. Moreover, if Carolina students were involved, they have not dared make public their part in thus belittling the fair name ' of our Alma Mater. ' We rejoice in the cordial relationships of clean rivalry, genu ine sportsmanship and mutual high esteem which have char acterized the competition between Duke and Carolina during several years. We shall enter the game Saturday determined to beat your team soundly. But, if victory rests with the Blue Devils at the end of the fray, you can know that a host of Carolina boys will be pulling for you to win the national championship in the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day. If you beat the Tar Heel team that will charge on your stadium Saturday you will have earned national honors. Cordially yours, Truman Hobbs, President of the Student Body, Orville Campbell, Editor of the Tar Heel, Carl Suntheimer and Harry Dunkle, Co-Captains of football, University of North Carolina ble losses. - The committee receives the tickets from German club members not plan See GERMAN BIDSi page h CPU to Present Film Depicting Czech Betrayal Three years old, but still considered remarkably "timely," "Crisis," first documentary film describing the be trayal and subsequent conquering of Czechoslovakia by.

Madry Et Al Intricacies Of University News Bureau Newly Exposed By Ben McKinnon . "Consisting of a desk, a typewriter, .. . , t-ii onion . skin ana ; caroon paper, a mi of office space, and a reporter, tne University News Bureau was - estab lished as such in the fall of 1918" sol emnly avows the cardboard constitu tion of the bureau, "Its purpose was to keep the newspapers of the state and nation informed about the.pror gress of the University, to dissemi nate all legitimate news, the good and the bad, in keeping with the institu tion's policy of. non-censorship." Before the founding of the News Bureau, news of the University had been handled by student correspon dents and Journalism professors. Na turally only a few of the larger daily newspapers received the information. Mr. R. W. Mardy was the first full time news director. In 1919 he re signed and the management fell into the hands of Lenoir Chambers then See NEWS BUREAU, page h ffe& ffzz J w J R. W. Madry in contrast with his former at tacks on the.
