Grail Holds First Dance Initial Frolic Set for Saturday The Grail initiates its 1942 program of dances with a Football Frolic in Woollen Gym Saturday evening from 9 to 12 o'clock, Sam Gambill, exchequer of the Grail, announced yesterday. The entire campus is invited with the ex ception of freshmen who cannot attend because of rushing regulations. Cleared through the new social com mittee set up by Bert Bennett, presi dent of the student body, and chair- manned by Hobart McKeever, the dance will be held in Woollen through cooperation with Navy officials and the administration. Script was set at $1.10 per couple or per stag. A dance of firsts, it will be the first Grail dance of the year, the first time all coeds and all upperclassmen may attend a '42 Carolina dance, and the first campus-wide dance to clear through the social committee.' Resuming its annual custom, the Grail will present a script dance after all Carolina home games with the ex ception of the weekend of Fall Ger mans. During winter and spring quar ters the Grail usually presents three dances to which the campus is invited. Freshmen will be allowed to attend all Grail dances after the completion of rush week. The policy of a period of silence in which upperclassmen . have no conversations with freshmen was instituted to prevent unfair rushing competition and tactics.

Music for the ball will be played by Johnny Satterfield and his orchestra and optimism runs rampant through male circles today in preparation for meeting the queens of the campus. Freshmen will not be allowed to at tend the dance because of rushing regulations laid down by the Inter fraternity council, arid old coeds act ing as marshals will not be permitted to dance. The ball is reserved for the special entertainment of new coeds and introduces them into the social life at Carolina. Student Rules Govern Coeds At University When a house mother tells a new coed she has to be in at 10:30 every weekday night, that isn't a faculty de cree; it is a rule set down by the coeds themselves. The Woman's Government Associa tion, headed by Marsha Hood, deals with coed activity, on the campus. It makes coed rulings; it punishes in fractions of the Honor System by co eds; it handles dormitory rules and regulations.

A series of short blasts on the fire sirens of the Chapel Hill fire depart ment will introduce North Carolina's first state-wide blackout sometime be tween 7 and 12 p. m. on Tuesday, Sep tember 29. During the 45 minute blackout period ordered by the army, all stu dents who are outside must immediate ly seek shelter of some kind, student director of Civilian Defense, Joe Leslie, emphasized yesterday. "In case of a real air raid," he stated, "the most dangerous, spot is in the open where there is no protection against falling debris and shrapnel. Even the light from a single cigarette is visible 4,000 or 5,000 feet in the air," he stated urg ing that students Ho not sit cArtside and smoke. The warning- blasts will continue for twa minxrtes. Immediately afterward all dormitories, fraternities, and soror ities will blackout. Students must stay in their own rooms during the state test to turn out their own lights and draw shades to make certain that no light shows outside. Matches, cigar ettes, and candles are taboo for the period. Director Leslie stated that student air raid wardens will be chosen for each floor or section of the student-occupied dormitories and an additional war den ill each buildingr will coordinate their activities. Each fraternity and sorority, will have an air raid warden appointed to see that blackout rules are observed. All wardens will appoint auxiliary policemen to assist them in See BLACKOUT, page Speech Looms As Most Vital Of Career Students Excused From 11 O'Clocks Significant and martial, the address of President Frank Porter Graham select, at their meeting this afternoon, at the general student convocation tn me cuiwr ox me x ackety- x acK. uay a ii o'clock in Memorial hall However, the PU Board will consi- ,00ms as the most important address der each application for the position to students in the president's career. -vu ujr uu6u iyiunon, wno wem in- xno miormation has been released zo tne army, and give the applicants by administrative heads na tn Tia ck a personal interview.

Together with the Circulation Department, it is con sidering every plan to get the Daily Tar Heel to the students. However, as nothing much can be done until a cen sus is taken of the town students, the Board has recommended that central points be established for the distribu tion.

This organization, which was orginated dur ing the 1928-29 academic year by Presi dent Chase and Dean Hibbard, has continued to bring entertainment to this campus which would otherwise be impossible. The organization has in the past brought to Chapel Hill concerts under the direction of famous orchestra lead ers, singers of the Metropolitan Opera, dance groups and plays. Glancing back at last year's series we can recall Charles Wagner's opera group in "The Barber of Seville"; Elise Huston, Bra zilian soprano; Lowe and Whittmore, dual pianists; "The Pirates of Pen zance" sponsored by tne uarolma Play makers and the Student Entertain ment series; The National Symphony orchestra under the direction of Hans Kindler; The North Carolina State Symphony with Ruggerio Ricci as vio lin soloist; and Elizabeth Waters' "Dancers en Route". Four undergraduate students and three faculty members serve on the committee to choose the entertainment. Dr. Haydon of the music department1, Prof Koch of the Carolina Playmakers and Dr. J. P. Harland, professor of archaeology and chairman of the group, are the faculty members. Student mem bers on the committee, chosen by the President of the Student body, consist of two seniors and two juniors: Wil liam Melaffy, Tom Baden and Joe Les lie are serving on the committee now. Funds are provided by the students and the $1.00 assessment is placed on the bill for tuition each quarter. Dur- mg its iirst year, tne program was subsidized by the state with a grant of $1,000 but since the depression, that has been abandoned. The idea for a Student Entertain ment series was voted for by the stu dents of the Liberal Arts department at the outset and then those in the Com merce department asked to be admit ted. Since then, all students except for graduate and Pharmacy students are admitted. The program for this year's enter tainment has not yet definitely been decided upon. Two programs have been scheduled thus far. Around November, Albert Morini will present "La Tra viata" and on March 5, the Bellet Russe comes to Chapel Hill. The organization tries to present two attractions each quarter and it is work ing now to complete the schedule for this year.
