O ;:. t-.j mm ':NJ" " By Bob Hoke For TAt Utvs: News: PAUL KOMISARUK Sports: EARLE HELLEN o Tea Dances Twice A Month . During last week's furor over NYA cuts and civilian morale, we overlooked editorially .the Woman's Interdormitory council's plan to stage semi-monthly tea dances starting in the winter quar ter. We now tardily but sincerely commend the idea as the most progressive and practical measure for bettering coed-men student relations yet formulated. . If these were only more of the typical Carolina dances, the ap-t palling number of which grieves citizens of the state, we would not even bother to mention them. But here, for a refreshing change, are dances which actually have more value than the kill ing of time and money. . V- The deprecating attitude of men students toward the Carolina Coed has been due mainly to the fact that the two student bodies never thoroughly mix. When once these dances start, even the lower quad hermit will be able to meet several coeds and feel a little stupid about his former whistling. No More Weary Feet Long lines, a familiar ordeal for most Carolina students, the bain of many students, griping, and making a return to school a pain instead of a pleasure, has gone the way of all excess bag gage. Under a stream-lined version of registration, I. C. Griffin, head of the Central Records office yesterday announced a new plan whereby enrollment would be carried on by appointment rather than the old hit-or-miss method. v . This is progress. . ' Many of us will remember the days when registration, whether it be the fall or the spring took many long hours. Tired feet, many weary hours were the only results. Yet, this new system will take its own little toll. It will mean that each student must keep his appointment, that each individual will have to be exactly on time for a change, and that cooperation between everyone involved will have to be the order of the day. Yet, praise to Ike Griffin and his staff. They at least are one part of the University always looking for improvement. In Passing: Honor Week like any other drive will have to be carried on throughout the year to really be effective. So why not make this week a starter for each student to realize his responsibility to all the other students from now on? O The suggestion was made yesterday that the NYA drive . be made one that will be a yearly occasion sort of a local Community Chest drive. This might be a first rate idea, considering the atti tude the government now has toward further appropriations. Stu dent support on this would make it so. O Most of the Republican governors tossed Franksgiving aside this past November 20, and ate their turkey a week later on the 27th. Tis rumored that the Democratic governors gave the GOP states the leftovers from their dinners, which, in passing, were loaded with gravy. o "I'm as unprepared to speak tonight as the United States is to carry on a defense effort. However, I don't object to dollar-a-year men in the government. They are worth every nickel of it." James Carey, executive secretary, CIO. British newsmen seem just as bad as the local Tar Heel report ers as far as getting dates and names are concerned. In a recent British newspaper announcement, it was stated that "Lindbergh's Gettysburg. Address" would be played on a special program for American technicians working abroad. We hope that the America Firster will not soil our fond visions and memories of Lincoln's historic spot. Twenty shopping days until Christ mas, in which brief space of time we must pass a few exams, buy that Christ mas present, and read two more of Henry Moll's latest productions. The unpredictable Mr. Moll, stymied by the Passing Parade in the ." last three months, is attempting the unprecedent ed feat of publishing two separate and complete Carolina Magazines within the period of a month, both to come out on the same day. Budget and printshop troubles held up distribution of the October Mag until two weeks ago. Moll's molecules and Morton's and Field's camera are now being pushed to capacity for the November and December Mag's to come out upon a worried campus, the first day of exams. Might be that serious repercussions will be felt from national advertisers at this idea anyhow, it will be some thing noteworthy to show the folks in the home town. O President Frank P. Graham is tak ing a vacation with NYA and such troubles here, while reorganization of the Defense Mediation Board is being stirred up in the brass hats of Wash ington. This august body stared at a day's trouble sheet absent of trouble after the captive coal mine dispute, haughty CIO members resigned and left the board incapacitated. Big plans are underway for a revamped group but here in isolated Chapel Hill, we're glad to see Dr. Frank back. O Beside worrying ' about when and how to make full use of his gigantic white elephant, Airport manager W. R. Mann faces another term of CAA instruction with predicted enrollment far below the quota. This fall, strong arm methods were threatened to fill the quota an OGPU is being readied to assist the January enrollment. Chapel period is an interesting con glomeration of 30 minutes and restless students from which columnists con tinually draw material Swing bands, and Sound and Fury stunts; milk shakes and chatter were rivaled this morning by the intelligent forethought of man's best friend. One particular campus canine col lected all used milk shake cups that were discarded as useless by wasteful students and began his business for the day. Undisturbed by saddleshoes the brown wooly creature ripped a strip out of the cups and licked the remnants of the Book Ex breakfast in very order ly fashion. Very intelligent: Dan's position is being undermined.

T. Martin Vice-President of Student Body The Honor System is for me an em bodiment of the ideals of fine living. I know that the System itself is but a mechanical structure to bring to the front, to crystalize in a statement these moral principles that are i inbred within every man. The Honor System does not teach honor that is a task which has already been completed in our in ner selves. But it does emphasize the honorable way of life. It has always been a joy to me to sit in discussion groups at various stu dent conferences and have the delegates turn to me when the matter of an Honor System is brought up and say, "Tell us about Carolina's Honor Sys tem." I dont think the average stu dent realizes just how well-known our way of life is outside of our own cir cles. In three years, at seven different conferences that I have attended, when ever-discussion came to honor, this System at Carolina has always been the basis for discussion, the point of departure. There is a simplicity and completeness in the very statement of our way of living that makes me thrill at any opportunity to expound on its virtues. It strikes me that any man who has a love for truth and the virtues of honorable living must be moved by the realization that a com munity, our University, operates di rectly under these statements of honor. I have always been a lover of tradi tion. There is something about build ings bound with thick webs of ivy, old pillars weathered with age, gnarled oaks that shelter companion edifices of earning, and desks that bear carved remarks of long-gone, students that make me revere and respect these things that have been tried and found true and worthy. I like to think of the Honor System as I do of these other symbols of tradition. It, too, has a past that makes keen the imagination and stirs a fierce pride in its continued existence through the years. It seems to say very plainly that it has seen men live and grow in character through their attachment to its ideals. I accept with gratitude the opportunity to f ol- ow these men of the past. 4 . mHmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm More than 1,000,000 panes of glass were required to repair damage to Ma drid during the Spanish civil war. 9t cMcfup&wi cM&ie College Success HEALTH: All-important for good health was satisfaction with living conditions. "Dates" with mixed groups, occurring more than three times a month, were bad for health ; but one-girl dates were not injurious. Those who were active in religious organizations had better health, but those who were over-active tended to have poorer health. Those who lived on the campus enjoyed better health. 2:30-5:00 Casting tryouts for Sound and Fury's "Bagdad Daddy' will be held in Memorial hall. 3:00 Songwriters meet Randy Meb ane in Sound and Fury office. 3:00 Frosh finance committee meets in Gerrard hall. 7:00 Raleigh boys meet in Gerrard hall to form club. 7:30 Town Students meet in Ger rard hall. ,8:00 The UNC Flying Club meets in room 108 Bingham. 8:00 Student Entertainment series presents Whittemore and Lowe, piano team and Madame Elsie Houston, so prano. in Memorial hall. 10:00 Asheville boys meet in Ger rard hall to organize club. LEGISLATURE (Continued from first ixge) of the secretary-treasurer of the coun cil and raising the traveling expense appropriation, the budget request was finally passed with an amendment pro posed by Pinky Barnes that the $200 item of surplus be turned over to the Self-Help committee to alleviate the NYA slash. , Presented by Ferebee Taylor, chair man of the Finance committee, the $8,337.01 Student Entertainment bud get was passed with an amendment by Terry Sanf ord that an appropria tion with a $330 limit be turned over for NYA students to replace the for mer practice of refunding the cost of entertainment tickets for self-help students. Appropriating over $13,000 for the broadened activities of the Graham Memorial Student Union, the legisla- ure extended the courtesy of the floor, to Richard Worley, director of the Student Union, for explanation of the different items. ' SLIP SLIP The band at the University Res taurant i3 really causing a stir. No body can pass and hear the strains of their favorite tune and not drip in. ..Crowds gathered outside the door to listen to the music that is sued loudly therefrom. O In Tuesday's Keyboard the type slipped a little, as did the quality which has been getting worse and worse. We got a couple of words in backwards and messed the thing up generally. Thus the slip up in the NYA para graph. The correction is: A group of students who like the NYA fellows and think they should stay in school, as we all do, are gathering funds to help. If you feel in accord with such a movement try and help any way you can. Moral support from the female population will be accepted. o - y Henry Moll and his ace sidekick with the camera have decided that they will start a "bosom" campaign which they claim will sweep the campus, liie exact meaning of the word is clear, and we suggest the Student Council look into the mat ter before it is too late. Sound and Fury found that casting was easier than they thought yester day, but they still need more beautiful coeds. In fact there are many of us who need such. Please take note Santa Claus. The turn out, however, was the bestest yet,- but more beauties are desired, literally. If you have . . or maybe A dose of . . . or maybe even a little or . . . then by all means bring it over to the casting renearsals. BEAUTY HERE The powers that be are a little s worried about the possibility of Tar . an' Feathers being banned before its publication about the fifteenth. It is rumored that there are some clean jokes included, and that just wouldn't do. O Up until now we have withheld some valuable dirt on a certain Mr. Jack Dupe. We have been doing the black mail act and it has worked because said information would absolutely ruin his rep here and anywhere else he might run to hide. But now the ittle drap has slipped up. He has failed to toe the mark, and as we go o press tomorrow, we will tell all. READ THIS COLUMN TOMOR ROW! . T. R.

Engineers at Bell Telephone Laboratories developed this circuit which enables two pairs of wires in parallel cables to carry as many as twelve separate conversations at the same time. K carrier is one of the ways we have found of adding a lot of long circuits in a hurry to meet defense commu nication needs. Such problems constantly challenge Bell System men with pioneering minds.
