House Privileges Board Releases Case Decisions EDITOR'S NOTE: The following are facts and decisions of sample cases brought before the House Entertainment Privileges board, liason agency between the Interfraternity council and Woman's Honor council, concerning infractions of the coed-Interfraternity agreement. Case I rAiS: A junior fraternity man and his date had been drinking beer , .town and took two bottles to the house to finish. There was no one -se in the room with them at the time but soon the Fraternity Council Rep e-'entative came in and reported them on the next day. They both said) nat they did not know beer was included in the coed agreement. DECISION: The house of which the boy was a member was not allowed entertain coeds for a period of three weeks and was put on probation for e rest of the year. The coed reported herself to the woman's honor council 3nd was severely reprimanded. Case II FACTS: Two members of a fraternity had coed dates and, although they d been warned not to do so, took their dates into a room where drinking Va going on. A house officer asked them to leave and one couple did so Promptly although the other couple was a bit reluctant to do so and waited r a few minutes. The first boy said that he had forgotten the agreement and the second boy did not seem to understand it. Since the girls did not ePrt themselves, the boys were forced to do so. DECISION: The house entertainment privileges board felt that because tfle dates nf tha ,j , a-.a a-.- nr did the coeds, and since the! i w.. inu lucua tuu nut " " - ' n"se involved had a good record, to be rather lenient. The coed entertain "!ent Privileges of that house were taken away for one week, the week in cluding a dance weekend. The two coeds were called before the woman's nor council and severely reprimanded for not upholding their part of the Sreement and for not reporting themselves. Red Cross Director Says Need Surpasses Supply of Dressings "The number -of surgical dressings being made by the women of Chapel Hill is gratifying," according to Mrs. Oscar Hamilton, head of surgical dressings. "By the end of next week we will be able to ship five cartoons containing 120,000 dressings. Thi3 sounds good, b'lt the Red Cross says they could use the dressings faster than we are sending them." The surgical dressings room was opened recently, and is now open to the public on. Wednesday nights. Some women have questioned the need for making surgical dressings by hand when machines can turn them out many times faster, "the fact is that manufacturers of surgical dress ings are working at full speed and top capacity, and can make only 10 percent of the dressings which it is estimated will be needed by the armed forces. This means that 90 percent will have to be made by the women of this country under the direction of the Red Cross. Every woman who makes surgical dressings will be contributing to the war effort," Mrs. Hamilton said. aces will be classed as institutional users and, under OPA regulations, will be allotted for the first allotment period November 22 to January 31 the same amount of coffee that thev used in September and October of 1942. This institutional allotment, based on a former order which restricted cof fee deliveries in September and Octo ber of 1942 to 65 of the coffee used m the same period in 1941. will mean that college students will get 35 less coffee than last year. In calculating their allotment, OPA officials report, colleges must make an inventory of the coffee they have on hand, and this amount will "be sub tracted in calculating just how much coffee each college will receive. "-- w luoutuuuiiai auuuiieni period is nine days longer than the base period on which colleges will make their calculations. For that reason, O P A officials point out, the college stu dent will have slightly less coffee ner capita than he had for the first two months of the academic year.
