Arabs Reported Massing At my For Invasion - Beirut, Lebanon, Oct. 9 (UP) --Arab troops are reported to -Jbe. j. massing along the borders of Palestine, ready for a pos sible invasion of the Holy Land. Abdul Pasha, Secretary General of- the. Arab League couunucuiul of the Arab League council, says that the Lebanese and Syrian governments have ordered units of their armies to assemble at ihe frontier, and that the first . units have already started march . ing. Pasha says that the Egyptian government . is also ordering strong " contingents of its army tp move up to Palestine's south ern'frontier. i Reports indicate that if an in vasion i starts, the Arab army -would be composed of trained forces from Egypt, . Iraq, Syria and Lebanon, and would fight hand-in-hand with the Arab un derground army in Palestine. .-.The reported troop move ments . ; came , after the Arab League 3 officially recommended that the seven Arab states get ready for military action if the British withdraw from the Holy land. A spokesman for the League says that this time the Arabs mean business, and that united Arab forces will fight any plan that does not establish Palestine as an independent Arab nation. 1 .The Jewish Agency has called on hundreds of war veterans to form a Jewish army for what is called a "Life , or death show down" with the Arabs. Mrs. Gbidie Meyerson, head of the Agency's Political department told veterans at Tel Aviv that .salvation for Palestine rested in the Holy Land, not at Lake Success. Mrs. Meyerson said that Wa ; Tews are not looking tor trouble, but are ready for it Torchlight Parade, New Song To Feature Pep Rally Tonight By Chuck Hauser A torchlight parade, a brand new fight song, and talks by Tar Heel co-captains Sparger and jWright and by 'a member of the coaching staff, are the high lights of tonight's pep rally, announced Myrt Sherard, head cheerleader. The pep rally will begin in Y court at 7:15 this evening, said Sherrard, and will precede as a torchlight parade over the usual circuit, ending up in Me morial hall, where a yet-un-lowed by the team co-captains, named member of the coaching staff will address the rally, fol lowed by the team co-captains, George Sparger and Joe Wright. The new Carolina Fight song, which was first presented to the student body by the University band at the Carolina-Georgia game, will be featured in to night's rally in preparation for the game tomorrow. The song was written by John McManeus, a University alum nus and former president of the band here. Students are request' ed to bring the words of the song, printed below with them to the rally this evening. t By Ken Roth well Following an executive meeting held last week officials of the veterans co-operative grocery store at Victory Village announced that a five per cent patronage dividend would be paid all cus tomers. A patronage dividend, they explained, is a cash rebate based on the total amount of groceries purchased by members. According to chairman Tom McDade this dividend is the first to be paid the store's customers since the project was launched in June. "Since the purpose in organi zing the co-op was to aid fac ulty and student married vet erans on campus in combating the high cost of living it is a real pleasure to distribute these checks as concrete evidence that we have at last partially fulfill ed our mission," he said. j Organized by a group of vet erans last year the co-operative grocery store functioned only as a buying club until June. At that time a building was obtained in the center of Victory Village for use as a store. Any married vet eran is entitled to make pur Carolina Fight Song Carolina, Carolina, . fight for N.C.U. All hail to colors white and blue, Let's make a touchdown, Carolina, fight! We fight for Alma Mater, Fight 'til the day is through. We sing your praises, Carolina, Fight, fight for N.C.U.! Chaperones Must Be Approved For Coeds' Visiting Coeds will only be allowed in fraternity houses this week end if a chaperone approved by the Dean of Women is present, announced Charlie Blackburn, chairman of the House Privileges board, last night. The chaperones will be nec essary because, according to a general statement issued by the Board, "A complete visit ing agreement has not been reached between all parties j concerned." OFIUM SEIZED Russia Schedules ig Boycott Lake Success, N. Y., Oct. 9 (UP) Russia disclosed today that she will boycott the "watch dog" commission which thy United Nations plans to send to the Balkans. Immediately after the Russian announcement, Yugoslavia ani four other Soviet 'satellites said they also would ignore the com mission. The Russian bloc's snub of the commission, which, still has to be set up formally by a two-thirds vote of the Gen eral assembly, practically wrecks its chances of bringing any so lution of the Balkan problem. The commission has virtually no prospect of succeeding if Greece's northern neighbors re fuse to cooperate and decline to let commission investigators en ter their territory to obtain evidence. Vancouver, British Columbia, rw O MP) Roval Canadian ; The report that Arab troops Monted Ike in Vancouver have been oroerea " have confiscated more than along the Palestine border has 4 000 000 dollars worth of .opium created a sensation at the Unit- & jyOi ship. eJ Nations.

These special arrangements have been made, because of the heavy work loads ahd class schedules carried by those af fected. "We are especially anx ious," Board Member Evans de clared, that all of the men and women in the above category take advantage of these arrange ments so that this Yack will be representative of all the students." oene - tflake, semorsection editor of the Yackety-Yack, likewise indicated that complete representation will be one of the major goals of this year's an nual. In a statement issued yes terday, he called on all seniors to stop by the Yack office and fill out their class cards. "It is important in the in terests of an accurate and com plete picture of the people of this campus that all students, especially seniors have all of their activities listed in the Yack, and that will not be pos sible unless we have a class card from every student," he stated. Explain Work Editors Johnstone, Bursley, and Evans moved also to explain what is to be done with the proofs of individual pictures which are now being returned to the students. Where the proofs are accompanied by in structions, no explanation is nec essary. As a final prelude to the fast approaching Sadie Hawkins day festivities, a mountain - style square dance will be staged in Y court from 7:45 till 10 o'clock this evening. The Student party will spon sor the affair in honor of its candidate for editorship of the Yackety-Yack, Art Melton. With caller and orchestra re cruited from the ranks of the Western North Carolina club, the dance is to follow immedi ately the Wake Forest pep rally, and will adjourn at 10 o'clock to the Rendezvous room for round dancing. Arnold Wilson, caller last year at the WNC square dances, will lead festivities, and "the Little Brown Juggers," an en semble of bona fide mountain musicians directed by Ed Nor wood has been signed to play.

Last year organizations like UVA, as well as individuals j purchased it both as an invest ment and to help the co-op. "We are very anxious that all new married veterans on cam pus, both student and faculty, who are interested in cutting down on living costs join with us," said McDade. He also anncinced the elec tion of two new members to the co-op board of trustees, Clay Cochran, a member of the Uni versity Economics department, and John Elmendorf.'a graduate student from Lumberton. Proposed by Charlie Loni-', Student Party floor leader and speaker pro-tem, was a bill auth orizing the Legislature's Finance committee to determine if In 2 Publications board might exceed its budget allowance. The bill placed top priority on the prob', asking a report "as soon as pos sible." Joyner Speaks Ed Joyner, treasurer of the board, said that yesterday aft ernoon three of the four publi cations' allotments were com pleted, and that the board woutl have its final budget complete within a week. Joyner did not indicate whether the board ex pected to exceed its allotment in the student body budget bi.Ii passed last spring SP Victories In a session punctuated by Student party victories, the Le?- Try-Out Response To Sound and Fury Impresses Leaders According to Pete Strader and Ken Gnmrnagc, things seem to be looking up for the Sound and Fury productions. The re cent response to the trv-outs for the coming production, "Gin I.ane," w;is enough to make the cist ing heads dizry. Because of the small number of students previously attending the University, the group has been composed, until recently, of the same people from pro duction to production. No matfer how good actots are, an audience soon tires of seeing the same faces time and again. The need for new blood was evident and fulfilled.

All students receiving sets of that kind are asked to select their best picture and bring or send it to the Yack office. The board of editors will then take care of having them finished. Dance Scheduled By Monogram Club The Monogram club is spon soring an informal dance Satur day night after the UNC-Wake Forest football game. Jimmy Marshall and his orchestra will play for the dance which will be held in Woollen gymnasium from 8:30 until 12 p.m. Tickets for the dance may be purchased at Lenoir dining hall, Woollen gymnasium, and the Y.

Part of the proceeds from the dance will go to the University club for sponsoring pep rallies and part to the building of the inter-dormitory shack. in music!" And Melton reminded that it would be one of the last social functions before male and fe male resume their traditional Sadie Hawkins day hostilities. The dance has been timed so that the pep rally crowd can begin dancing immediately fol lowing the march through town.
