Bennett, University building supervisor, in explaining the coldness of the new tem porary classrooms, "it's pipe." The radiators and heating units are all installed ih the wooden structures, Bennett said, but contractors have been un able to obtain the necessary pipe to bring the heat in from out side sources. "We contracted with J. L. Powers of Bennettsville, S. C, to do the work two months ago." Bennett went on. "It was sched uled for completion by October 1, but the faclory hits shipped no pipe, due to steel production bottlenecks, and doesn't know when any will be available."

All students who are interested in world government are invited to attend. There are two important items on the agenda: Officers for the-coming year will be elected, and plans for the radio program to be sponsored by the Duke and; Carolina chapters of World Federalists will be discussed. Several students from Duke will be present to take part in the discussion. It is especially urgent that all old members be present since this is the first meeting of the new schoof year and important decisions must be made at this meeting. , Russell Baldwin, president during the summer session, will preside until a new president is elected. He will make a re port on the activities of the chapter during the summer and also on the forthcoming radio program to be broadcast by a Durham radio station. predicament. Construction gangs took out Dr. Graham's furnace this summer, expecting to have the elusive pipes in place before chilly weather. "We are looking everywhere for pipe," Bennett concluded, "and have even tried to procure oil stoves for temporary use, vith little luck. We are hoping to have something worked out shortly, though." As soon as pipe can be ob tained, connection between the old heating outlets and the new buildings should be a speedy procedure. University building authorities will endeavor to heat the buildings being used the most first, then the structures closest to the heating outitits. which they are to' occupy in that publicti6rirThis"'was announc ed in a letter sent yesterday to all groups involved by Dick Gordon, Yack business manager. . , Gives Reason Any organization which has not either contracted with the annual or made special arrange ments by that time cannot be included in this year's book. Commenting upon the speed-up, Yack editorial . board member Harold Bursley explained that it had been made necessary by competition with other annuals for scarce materials and printing facilities. There is not a sufficient sup ply of these items, and conse quently only those annuals which bid first will have all their requirements satisfied. Brown and Gold In compliance with the ad vanced deadlines thus set, all preliminary work on the book is in the final stage. Brown and gold have been selected as the dominant colors in carrying out the "spirit of Carolina" theme. The budget of $45,000 has been drawn up, and the dummy copy has been completely set up. However, the other Board of editors members, Ruth Evans and Gene Johnstone have join ed Bursley in urgently request ing the utmost in student co operation especially in the mat ter of individual and group photographs. "If this co-operation is given the Yackety-Yack editors and staff are confident that they can give Carolina the biggest and best Yack of- all," ' concluded Bursley.

Graham, presi dent of the Greater University, was appointed by President Tru man yesterday evening as the United States representative to a special United Nations com mittee to investigate the cur rent dispute between the Dutch and Indonesians. Dr. Graham will work with delegates ' from Belgium and Australia in an effort to settle the argument in the Nether lands East Indies. The commit tee was set up when the U.N. offered the services of its securi ty council as a perogative for the peaceful conclusion of dif ferences which have already flared into civil war in Java.

Quonset Hut Students Believe Life in Dorm Would Be Cleaner By Wallace Kirby If you happen to be one of Carolina's lucky gentlemen with a dormitory room, don't feel discouraged or down-trodden be cause your roommate isn't co-operative about helping keep your room clean and the boys up and down the hall insist on noise sometime, but drop down to Quonset Hut stretch and get a glimpse of real college life.

" Wcfiave". two study huts, one on each level, serving occupants of sixteen Inns or about three hundred and twenty boys. Then there we other huts set aside for addi tional requirements, one for laundry and dry cleaning, one for mail, and two or so to help the fellows keep looking like people. Each hut houses 20 boys, so if you happen to drop around when one or two of the room mates are out, come again for you may catch them in. With twenty boys in one hut, you would expect some squabble as to when the lights should go out, who occupies what section, and bow much noise should be allowed. Such doesn't exist around the area, for each fel low is considerate, of his buddy, and so on down the line. Usual ly, unofficial taps are sounded around eleven; and with the ex ception of late daters, late stud iers, and general night owls, the area quiets down. ; The big event, breaks each morning as everyone searchs through the DTH to see if their names have been added to the dormitory list.
