Gives Students Chance to Save
Liberties Learned in Chapel Hill
Beginning this Wednesday the University will be asked to do
its part in the current national war bond drive. At that time
the campus drive gets under way to last through Saturday.
The drive will urge the purchase of bonds or stamps through
two methods, (1) individual purchase by students at the booth
to be set up in the YMCA, and (2) by campus organizations
investing surplus income in bonds.
Students are perhaps tired of hearing the old appeal to buy
bonds so that their friends fighting the war may have every
type of equipment necessary to defeat the enemy. Yet an ap
peal on this ground should be totally unnecessary. The obliga
tion to buy bonds for this reason and this reason alone should
be so evident that any urging to purchase them would be un
necessary. But in sheltered Chapel Hill (a phrase which has been ren
dered no less true by repeated use), students, faculty, and
townsfolk are apt to lose sight of the necessity for providing
the material aspects of waging a war. Perhaps they are a little
to concerned with such problems more interesting to scholars
as a workable plan for post-war settlement.
But while they are setting up such a plan, they must see to
it that their government is in a position to enforce it. The
enemy hasn't called on its historians and scholars to help with
any post-war plans, Their only post-war plan is written on
steelof bayonets and machine guns.
One good way to make sure that the proper post-war plan is
enforced, is to see that your government gets every cent you
can spare by the purchase of bonds and stamps.
This drive isn't for charity. It is a drive, the success of which
will play a large part as to whether you may be able to use the
liberties you have come to know and appreciate at Chapel Hill.

It seems that the job of de
feating Bob Reynolds may be
handed to former Governor
Clyde Hoey, of Shelby. Hoey,
brother-in-law of O. Max Gard
ner, was quite active in support
of Gardner before the latter
announced on Thursday that
he would not be a candidate.
Observers believe that Hoey is
one man in the state who can
marshall together all the anti
Reynolds ivoters. In the event
that Hoey, present nation
al democratic committeeman,
does not run, and it is prac
tically a certainty that he will,
the race against Reynolds for
the Senate seat would be multi
manned one.
It was only mentioned in the
last paragraph of a news story
sometime ago, but President
Frank P. Graham wil deliver
the graduating address to the
1943 Senior class. For the
many in the class who were
freshmen in 1939, it is a dis
tinct honor. For the school
year 1939-1940 was the last
one in which Dr. Frank held
only the job of President of the
South's greatest University.
Since that year he has been
busy commuting between Cha
pel Hill and the nation's capi
tal as he has patiently held
down two important jobs. The
Senior class could ask for no
better word of parting than
they will receive.

She walked into the Caro
lina Mag office where lively
young coeds were practicing '
up their toothpaste smiles be
fore going out for ads.
"I want to see the editor,"
she said softly, and the type
writers stopped clicking.
The editor wasn't around so
she talked to the weary wom
en. She wanted to work on the
Tar Heel and the Mag. "I love
to write," she stated simply.
We thought of the chaotic
Tar Heel office next door.
Could she work amidst the
noise and confusion of a 6 :00
deadline ? Could she cover
South building? What did she
know about student activities ?
Patiently we explained to
her the ways of the Tar Heel.
Did she like to dash around
Chapel Hill on foot or on bicy
cle?
Persistently she asked,
"Could I get an assignment
from the Carolina magazine?"
We told her to write about
anything she liked. If the edi
tor liked it, we promised, he
would consider it for publica
tion. Without a word she left, as
quietly as she had come.
We looked at each other and
shrugged our shoulders. Why
would a woman of fifty, with
wrinkled face and bobbed gray
hair, want to work on the Tar
Heel or the Mag?
Journalism students who
cover recorder's court here
have spent the past week kid
ding Skipper Coffin. His maid
was brought up for cursing on
a crowded bus. One student
handled the news story by J
falsely quoting, "I didn't know
there was anything wrong
with cursing in public. Mr.
Coffin does it all the time."
With photographer Bisho
pric, the Weary Women went
to take pictures of Mrs. Betty
Smith, whose novel "A Tree
Grows in Brooklyn" was just
accepted as the September
Literary Guild selection.
In a husky voice, with a
slow mixture of Brooklyn and
southern accents, Mrs. Smith
talked of her life in Chapel
Hill ... of the writers group
where she, Paul Green, Noel
Houston, Josephine Niggli
and George Mills read their
work to each other on Sunday
nights last winter. Since their
last informal meeting Green
has gone to Hollywood. Mills
and Mrs. Smith have had
novels accepted. Houston has
written short stories for Lib
erty and Colliers. Miss Niggli
has had a play published. Be

To the editor:
This is to correct a grave and important misrepresentation
that was made in the State papers, (the Greensboro News and
the Durham Herald Sun) and that happens to be believed gen
erally on our own Campus.
It deals with the very few students who worked particularly
hard on the 100th Anniversary Issue of the Carolina Magazine
and who devoted many hours
of assiduous work in making it

There was a time when they
were seen together a great
deal. There was a time when
they were sufficient to one
another. If he couldn't dance
she was content to go to a
midnight movie with him. He
had her phone number mem
orized, and as far as she was
concerned he could be put to
music. She memorized his
ways and knew what pleased
him or what displeased him.
As college matches went this
affair was placidly wonderful.
But, as is the way with
males, he was never sure of
her. He would slip his long,
gawky form in a chair and
drape his thin legs around the
army of the chair and mourn
his doubts in soft southernese.
"I tell you she's too re
served, too cold. Ever time I
watch her she's as purty as
picture or a painting. But
Hell's fire who wants a paint
ing anyhow ?"
- As the quarter came to a
close he had taken the various
stages of doubt: suspicion,
jealousy, distrust, etc. Often
he came home restless and
stood poised over the tele
phone. Inevitably, he picked
up the receiver and called her.
The new school quarter
came in. The season changed.
The small courtship came
to a close. The cool num
ber had begun to see the varie
ty found in a. uniform. Once
so immaculately frigid she
now took down her beautiful
hair (once marcelled and gol
den), and dressed in comfort
but still with care and taste.
She came out of the mono
gamous state of giving dates
to one boy.
Our gawky lover was one
never given to brooding. Per
haps .the male in him was put
out and he may have drowned
it out in the foamy hops but
Spring had softened him. The
time was gracious and Ab's
Bookstore was as crowded as
ever and the following week
there was a dance and so why
worry.
Yes, why not. He turned ap
preciative eyes on a slim,
sweet-mouthed lovely and he
"rushed" with the same zeal
and patience as before. She
proved more responsive.
He has memorized another
phone number and in his slow
slumberous way he spoke in
that soft southernese:
"Ever'time I'm with her I
think she's about the sweet
est thing that ever lived . . .
but you know something? I
ain't sure I know what is but
Hell's fire I don't know if it's
love or not!"
Monogamy, thy name is
man!

Canada Doing Her Part
In Pursuing War Effort
By Buddy Cummings
As a member of the British Empire and of . the 26 United Na
tions Canada is shaping her pattern for total war according to
her resources in material and manpower and in relation to the
needs of her allies. Her chief contribution to the allied cause
may be categoried in three channels : the production of food,
the production of war materials, and the supply of men for the
armed forces to met the Axis on sea, land and in the air.
Numbering several hundred vessels manned by a force of
40,000 men, the Royal Cana- .
dian Navy has grown sud
denly from a 15-vessel, 2700
men body to keep open the vital
sea supply lanes to Britain.
Its work has been intensified
by the spread of Nazi U-boats
to North American shores, and
by the entry of Japan into the
conflict.
One of the most highly mech
anized mobile units in the
world, the Canadian Army
Overseas is a comparatively
new organization, its 305,000
troops seeing action in the
West Indies, Gibraltar, and
Newfoundland. Until recently
Canadians were allowed to be
drafted only for home defense.

are 180,000 men, some of
