Growing out of CPU discussion of the Negro problem, the panel will contain representatives both of the Negro and the white race. Negro mem bers of the panel will be Dean James T. Taylor, of the North Carolina College for Negroes, and Dr. David Jones, president of Bennett College. Dean Taylor has already spoken at a previous meeting of the Carolina Political Union since discussion of the Negro problem began, declaring that it was necessary for both races to solve the current problem rather than one of the races alone. Giving reasons why the racial prob lem should be solved, Dr. Taylor said that "in this current war it' is neces sary that America have all available manpower. This will include the 13, 000,000 Negroes in the United States. Secondly it is necessary that we don't become a subject for Axis propaganda by allowing such incidences as oc curred in Mississippi to be spread among the colored peoples of Eastern Asia." Must Win Peace "We must win not only the war but the peace, Dr. Taylor concluded. Cit ing Burma as an example of Axis propaganda playing its part, he stated that we must not allow progress in the war to be retarded by such activi ties." Also present at the discussion will be Dr. Howard Odum, head of the So ciology department, and Dr. Guy Johnson, professor of sociology. At a previous meeting of the CPU, Dr. Johnson gave a short speech on the Negro situation, "Dr.- Odum, recently returned from an Interracial confer ence in Atlanta, will give "some very pertinent information gathered there." Three Meetings Held Since the inauguration of the dis cussion, the CPU has had three meet ings at which faculty members have participated, and has run, columns in the Daily Tar Heel concerning the various angles of the problem. "The panel will be open to the pub lic," Chairman Dick Railey said.

They are the twelve-year-old ink spots who sit complacently on a fruit growers' box somewhere on campus, usually around Graham Memorial. Eric says business is "pretty good." They get more than they charge some times, he hints with an oversized smile. With luck they go home with as much as a dollar apiece in their, blue jeans. This goes for clothes, they said right eously, or maybe a show. "The Three Mosquitoes" are their favorite movie stars. Working hours are from 9 a.m. until about 9 p.m., but the job isn't strictly a seven-day week affair. Rush busi ness comes on the weekends. They haven't had any trouble with union See SHOE SHINE, Page 4. UNC Delegates, Smith and Railey Present Measure Feature bill at the meeting of the North Carolina Student Legislature yesterday and Friday in Raleigh was a resolution on post-war peace terms introduced by the Carolina delegation. Drawn up originally by Dick Railey as a University bill, the measure was reworked "by a joint house and senate committee composed of Ray Leake, Guilford, and W. J. Smith, Carolina, of the senate, and E. O. Brogden and Railey, Carolina, and David Harris, State, of the house. Also representing Carolina at the annual student legislative conference was Cecil Hill, who acted as president of the senate. Railey served as ma jority whip of the house. The bill urged that: (1) At the successful conclusion of the war the United Nations should establish a confederation of nations. The defeated nations would be invited to join. (2) This federation would unite all the nations of the world for the mutual solving of their common economic, so cial, and political problems. (3) An international police force be formed to enforce these decisions. This international police force to be built around the combined air force of the United Nations.

J. Smith, speaker of the legislature, stated yesterday. Conducted by the finance commit tee, the hearing "will be open to all students to express their views," Roy Strowd, chairman of the finance committee, added yesterday.

Harper pointed out at great length that swing tunes have been duplicated for the crowd, and will be sung over the snazzy piano accompaniment of the Memorial hall ivory box. The rich baritone voice of Dick Ford will again be a feature part of the pro gram. Freddie Caligan and Libby Izen will repeat a dance duet that has been absent from the program for several weeks. Popular accordionist Johnny Fisher will present several selections in his own distinctive style and for addicts of the hot piano, Dick Katz and Buck Dud ley will play several duet numbers in cluding some deep wild boogie-woogie and also themore gentle ballads of the moment. Successful in the past, the Sunday night sessions are planned for the en tertainment both of those students who already saw the movie in the afternoon, of those who were too broke to see it, and of those who wouldn't go to see it in "the first place. Ample crowds have been in evidence in the past, greatly adding to the pleas ure of the community singing projects. OUTSTANDING for. the Tar Heels yesterday in their losing stand .against the powerful State Wolf pack were Co-Captain Joe Austin, left, and Hugh Bigham. Playing on an injured .leg, Austin turned in a sparkling performance and in the closing seconds of the first half raced down field to take a long aerial from Walt Pupa and ran over the goal '1 line untouched for the first Carolina score. Bigham while in the game . turned in a fine effort at his end position. Itate Outplays Carolina To Cop Exciting Contest By Westy Fenhagen RIDDICK STADIUM, Oct. 31 In one. of the most thrilling battles ever witnessed here,' an up where they left off last year 21-14 triumph over a badly out-classed Tar Heel eleven. Except for brief flurries in the second and fourth quarters, the Tar Heels were completely outgeneraled and outplayed by an excellent State team that resorted to every trick in the game to TT m i J omi isoara Will Report Officers to Give Students Advice The Joint Presentation board of officer representatives Irom the Ar my, Navy, Marines and both air corps will be on the campus all day Thurs day to give Carolina students latest in formation on enlistment opportunities. War adviser W. D. Perry and Dean of Men Roland Parker plan to call a mass meeting of the student body Thursday morning when the recruit ing representatives will help to clari fy the mass of incomplete information which has been coming from the Capi tal since Congress undertook the 18 and 19-year-old draft bill. Conferences Slated After the morning meeting, the representatives will hold conferences with individual interested students in the lounge of Graham Memorial, it is planned. Now appearing at colleges in east ern Tennessee, the board should ar rive in Chapel Hill late Wednesday night or early Thursday morning from Duke University. Sponsored by the War Department and headed by Lt. Col. L. C. Coleman, the Board will have visited over 50 colleges by No vember 19 when its current tour ends.

Recommended by Joseph Eastman,' director of the Office of Defense Transportation, alternatives were an nounced through Guy E. Snavely, secretary of the Association of Amer ican Colleges. It is not clear whether all colleges will adopt one of the three suggestions or whether they will adopt different plans. Reports indicate that in some areas colleges will adopt the staggered plan. A. W. Hobbs, dean of the college of Arts and Sciences, is now at the meet ing of the Association. He is expected to bring back news of the decision that the Association has voted. Definite an nouncement will be made at the last of this week, it, was stated. inspired State College eleven took and smashed out a well-deserved frhand the Tar Heels their second con- I secutive licking. Furious Fourth Before a large Homecoming Day crowd of 15,000, which cheered every move the Wolf pack made, State went out to a 14-0 lead in the second quar ter and were never headed. The Tar Heels brought the score up to 14-7 just before the half ended but the Wolf pack came" back "in the 'third stanza to score again and assume a 21-7 lead. A furious fourth quarter flurry brought. Carolina its second touchdown and in the closing moments of the game the Tar Heels put on a brilliant attempt to tie the score but the threat fell short. State Shows Power State power and deception told the story of the game. The inspired Wolfpack forward wall broke through time after, time to spill Tar Heel ball carriers or backs attempting to pass. On the other hand, the Tar Heels were continually back on their heels in the shadow of the goal posts and only several stubborn stands saved addi tional scores. The Tar Heel running attack was pretty thoroughly stifled all afternoon and only when Carolina took to the air lanes were they able to negotiate considerable yardage. The Tar Heels who had been unim pressive during - practice all week were even more unimpressive today ex cept for fleeting moments when for ward passes caught the Wolfpack sec ondary napping. Austin Stars Co-Captain Joe Austin, who was ex pected to see only limited service to day, because of a severe knee injury, and sophomore ace Billy Myers, play ing the finest game of his career, carried the brunt of the Carolina at tack.

Born in Valparaiso, the "Pearl of New Sick Bay For December Pre-Flight School Infirmary Will Be Modern, Spacious By Madison Wright The new infirmary the $192,000 structure rising rapidly behind the Medical building is expected to be ready for Navy occupancy in early De cember, officials said yesterday. The essential parts of the frame work are finished, and workmen are now installing water and gas mains, electricity, flooring and roofing. Built in the Georgian style to con form with the woman's dormitory de sign, the three-story brick building is planned for comfort and convenience, is completely fireproof, and is to be supplied with the most modern medi cal equipment available. Its designed capacity is 50 beds, but this number can be increased easily, for under the present plan the building is very spa cious. Facing Kenan stadium, the new In firmary will be back-to-back with the Medical building. The ambulance en trance will be in the rear, connecting with the present drive, while in front will be a spacious porch for the pa tients. At the north end is the entrance for the cadets. On the ground floor the reception room is located just inside the cadet entrance, next to the record room. This floor will handle most of the Infirmary activities, as it houses the doctors' of fices, examination rooms, pharmacy, laboratory and dental clinic, where a staff of three dentists will be located. On the second floor are both single rooms and small wards, the private rooms being ranged alongthe east face. Above. on the third floor are the major and minor operating rooms, along with more private and ward beds. These floors are served by an elevator and three stairways. A special grinding process is now under way on the floors that have been completed downstairs. This flooring is terasso, of a durable black-and-white surface. Flooring is still being poured upstairs, and the plastering has not yet begun on the walls. Neither the water, gas, nor electricity has been connected permanently, but this will be done within the next few See NAVY, Page 4 Mozart Concert Planned Tonight Turning from the moderns to the classics, the newly-organized Carolina Music club presents an all-Mozart pro gram tonight at 7:30 in the Choral room of Hill Music hall.
