Kickapoo Joy Juice and All the Trimmings To Engulf Campus on Friday's pogpatch Day By Eoland Giduz If Carolina gentlemen, gone Dogpatch for the day, don't like Ole Man Mose's Sadie Hawkins day predictions Friday, they can go drown' their sorrows in some of Lonesome Polecat's Kickapoo Joy Juice. For starting off SH day festivities at 1 o'clock Fri day afternoon, these two care free characters right out of Li'l Abner, ;will be in the Y court peddling their respective wares. In addition to bringing to life these two figments of comic art ist Al Capp's imagination, the Sadie Hawkins day committee has promised an old-time ex hibition of true Dogpatch square dancing, to be presented in com- plete costume by the boys who should know all about it, the Western North Carolina club. Tentative Program Mike Loftus, chairman of the Z ; day's festivities, yesterday an nounced a tentative final pro gram. Meeting of all members of Loftus' committee will pe 'zeld in Parker lounge No. 1 of Dry Fans Mark Tennessee Tilt - Saturday's Carolina - Ten- nessee football game here 1 was " as drv as T'vp ovpr coon Only one arrest was made Saturday afternoon, and that one not at the game. It was a case of public drunkenness on a down-town street. Direct Contrast This was in direct contrast to the total of 14 arrests eight of which involved stu dents which were made Fri day night and early Saturday morning, on charges of pub lic drunkenness, drunken driving, reckless driving, and speeding. Chief Sloan de scribed Friday night as a "merry-go-round" at some periods, with a continuous parade of incoming arrest. Halloween vandalism Fri day night was reported as slight by City Patrolman Ed King. Chapel Hill pranksters If or the most part confined themselves to soaping of win dows ?'and ' parading in cos- tume with little or no . dam- I ages being reported. 'Hey How U' Days Will Begin Today "Hey, how U?" the traditional campus greeting, has been turn ed into a better relations cam paign sponsored today and to morrow by the University club to promote renewal oi friendly greetings among students. Tags bearing "Hey, how U" and a space for the wearer's name will be distributed today by University club representa tives in all dormitories, fraterni ties, and sororities, and also will be handed out in the Y court during today and tomorrow morning. The University club, made up of representatives of all organi zations on the campus, regularly sponsors pep rallies, football caravans, and extra school spirit campaigns such as the "Hey, how U" program beginning to day.

Going around the block through the business district, floats in the parade will be judged by a secret committee, and a valuable prize awarded to the best. "Feetsball" Game - Following around Columbia United Press Eller Asks Inquiry Info Cancellation Of State Assembly Branding the State college cancellation of the State Student Legislature as "regrettable," stu dent body President Tom Eller stated yesterday that, "It is my hope that the Debate council will investigate the situation thoroughly and will consider the practicality of sponsoring such a meeting itself under the same terms as last year." "Student government will be happy to aid the Debate council in any possible way to accom plish this objective," continued Eller. "While there is no ques tion but that State college is act ing within its responsibility, a great deal of misunderstanding could have been avoided by their contacting other colleges and universities in the state to get a representative viewpoint on the situation." Shropshire Comments In Chapel Hill on business Sunday evening, Don Shrop shire, speaker of the house of last year's legislature, stated that "We can't let Helms kick us around." He was speaking of Ira Helms of State, president of the legislature and head of the Leg islative council which cancelled this year's assembly. Shropshire, not in school this quarter, will return to his academic work in January. I "I accuse someone -of negli-1 gence, Shropshire declared, in not disseminating information on rules of the legislature and the council and on plans being made by the council. If only State was represented, how were oele- l gates at Carolina or any other schools supposed to know what was going on." Negro Question Latest information received here from Raleigh was to the effect, that the University was not entitled to representation on the Legislative council, and that State, as.sponsor of the legisla ture' ;con trolled -ihe council by itself. After -the fight' by State delegates in 1945 to prohibit the entrance of Negro schools into the organization, all persons commenting on the dissolution of the legislature have stated that the race question was ob viously a- the bottom of the de cision. Helma himself, commenting on the reasons for dissolution, said, "The race question does have something to do with it." j Eller, Shropshire, and Maurice Braswell, however, have said that the races worked together in perfect harmony and that there was no cause for alarm on that score. Braswell, a former delegate to the legislature, is president of the Deba'te council here. street, the Grand Parade will proceed directly to Fetzer field for gala "feetsball game" be tween members of the Mono gram club. Captain for Fortes cue U. will be Tommy Hearn, star Tar Heel matman, while basketball's "Mr. Rebound" Bob Paxton is scheduled to lead the loyal grid charges of Phogbound U. Right after the ball game slaughter comes the race for life, the Human Race, on the in tramural field above Fetzer sta dium. Execution ceremonies of rn.arria.ge and a number of games for "happy" newlyweds will be run off at this time. Though the entire ' student body is requested to dress Dog patch style for the entire pro gram, beginning at 1 o'clock, this mountaineer costume will be mandatory for admission to the grand ball in the evening. . The Alumni Association re quests that exhibits for Satur day's Homecoming football game be erected on a Sadie Hawkins motif. i ! CHAPEL HILL, N. nil. immJL - ' ''' 4, a .-J- 9 s Lfcuw mn Saaufej Dormitory Aid In Coed Guidamei . The first University of Caro lina coeds of 50 years ago got a lot of attention from the men, but it is doubtful if they got as much friendly guidance and counsel from their older sisters as the undergraduate coeds of 1947, which finds approximately 1,000 women students, 110 of them veterans, enrolled at Chapel Hill. The fathers and mothers c the Carolina coeds of today shouldn't worry too much about whether their daughter is get ting -enough- supervisionat - the University. The positive ans wer is that she is. Dr. Katherine Carmichael, Dean of Women, receives enough letters, however, to indicate that many families do not know that each of the regular un dergraduate women's dormitor ies has a hostess and a graduate counselor and that each incom ing coed is assigned a carefully selected undergraduate student counselor, who is responsible for the orientation, adjustment and guidance of the new woman student. In addition to the dormitory hostesses there are four assistant hostesses and 50 student advis ers who are chosen from the seniors and graduate students. Government Checks Prove Choice Morse! For Hungry Veterans in Quonset Area By John Stump That starving Europeans have little on. checkless UNC veterans was the news over the week-end from all corners of the Carolina campus. Cigarette haze was much less dense over the Quonset hut areas as the end of an expensive week end and that last smoke be- fore the checks come in ar rived together. Three typical cases were Richard Veasey, Bill Walker, and Bob Walsh who found themselves up against it after a foodless Sunday that would have done the Luckman com mittee's hearts good. How ever, about 6:30, they finally succeeded in borrowing $5 from "generous Jim" Kelly, hut area manager and, joined by this hungry reporter, hit for Lenoir hall on the double. -"It's been a rough day" was Walsh's opinion about 10 minutes later as he wolfed down the last bite of his first meal in 24 hours. Evidence was not lacking from various sources that many others had had it just as hard as Walsh and his buddies. Campus veterans asked to make meagre funds last over five weeks before receiving their first VA assistance of the current school year have been feeling the pinch, for several days past. However, relief had arrived last night, according to J. R. Webb local superintendent of mails who C. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER Counselors The job of the advisors is to provide a guidance program for thej new girls, and they ought to fbe able to do a good job, for no adviser is assigned more than eight girls and some have only three. , These advisers supplement the individual guidance offered by the deans, religious counselors, personnel advisers and doctors. Pictured above are the coun selors and chairmen o the ad visor groups for each of the coed dormitories. jp - row,. ieit i-a---ngnu Margaret Ellis, Rayville, La., Alderman Dormitory; Patricia Carruthers, Akron, Ohio, Mc Iver Dormitory; and Phyllis Johnson, Brookhaven, Miss., Smith Dormitory.

He explained that a com bination of the fact that the local postoffice makes no af ternoon deliveries on Satur days and the failure of the checks to arrive in Chapel Hill until 10:30 Saturday morning was responsible for the. delay in local distribu tion. Ordinarily we deliver them on the first of the month, but we were just not able to do so this time," he said. Some few allegedly born under a lucky star had re ceived theirs on Saturday, but generally speaking the week-end was spent on bor rowed money if not on bor rowed time. MUSIC RECITALS Studio recitals will replace the weekly student recital Wed nesday afternoon in Hill hall, ft was announced yesterday. All students taking applied music should consult their teachers as to time and place of their recitals. Phone General Assembly Agrees in Voting On War Publicity Lake Success, Nov. 3 (UP) The United Nations General assembly tossed aside its dif ferences today in a rare demon stration of agreement to vote unanimously for the resolution that condemns all war propa ganda and calls on all members to promote publicity for peace. In another part of the world organization, however, disagree ment still reigns between the United States and Russia which threatens to endanger U.N. plans for Palestine. The American Soviet disagreement hinges on the questions of just how and when the Holy Land should be partitioned. Russia has proposed that the U.N. council take over Palestine January 1, divide it into Jewish and Arab states, and grant full independence by the end of 1943. The United States had sug gested that the British pull out of the Holy Land July 1 and that the Arab and Jewish states receive independence at the same time. The American pro posal also called for a three-man commission of the General as sembly to act solely as advisors to the two states. The Russian plan submitted today to a U.N. subcommittee on Palestine met with immediate United States criticism. An American delegate warned that the idea of the Security council controlling Palestine is so un satisfactory to the United States that it might lead' to the failure of all partition proposals. The spokesman said that the small nations would object , to giving new duties to the Secu rity council where the veto can be used. Phi Assembly Airs Parking Situation In Meeting l onight Mr. Ed Lanier, Director of Central Records office, will address the Phi assembly to night at y o clock in the Phi hall, fourth floor New East, when the Chapel Hill traffic problem comes before the de baters. Opposing the establishment of parking meters and the elimination of overnight parking as proposed by the Board of Alderman, the bill to be introduced favors other solutions to the problem. Among these are a 30 minute parking limit in the business district, an additional traffic officer, rigid enforcement of present traffic laws, and elimination of the U turn in front of the Post Office. Preceding the debate, the Phi will hold a candlelight ceremony for the initiation of new members into the as sembly. New initiates are James Marlin Stanley, Pilot Mountain; Ernest House, Ma rion; Charles Dixon, Bel- jmont; David Sharpe, Chapel Hill; William Duncan, Nar beth, Pa.; Frank Giraffe, Southington, Conn.; Ruth Nelson Bradley, Forest City; James Browne, Wilmington; Mintie Cantrell, Etowah, Tenn., Emily Baker, Ashe ville; Herman Sieber, Hen dersonville, and Douglas Car ter, Winston-Salem.
