Coaches and players are not
the only busy folks in football
circles here this week.
The tremendous job of re
moving from Duke stadium
approximately 12,000 portable
grandstand seats and return
ing them to Kenan stadium,
where they will be used for
Saturday's Carolina-Virginia
game, is taking place.
These seats, property of the
University Athletic associa
tion, were used at Duke sta
dium last week and helped
accommodate the record
breaking crowd of 56,500.
R. L. Hutchins, Athletic as
sociation foreman, supervised
the work of transferring the
bleachers to and from Duke
stadium, and has been highly
commended for the efficient
way in which the job has been
done.
Indications point to a crowd
of 35,000 or more attending
the Carolina-Virginia game,
which means that most of the
portable grandstands will be
in use at the Z o'clock kick
off. Kenan stadium normally
seats only about 24,000.

Small, Black Puppy
Is Lost on Campus,
Wants to Go home
The Baily Tar Heel business
office and lost dogs just don't
seem to get together these days,
decided two sad souls at about
8:30 last night when they walk
ed into the DTH news offices
wanting to place a lost ad for a
fuzzy black puppy of unknown
heritage.
The dqfe belongs to Mrs. Bara
bara Harmon, of 157 Daniels
road, and may be returned there
to her or husband John, or to
the pup's "godfather," Leonard
Qettinger, at the Kappa Sig
house.
Last seen on the practice field,
the three-month-old puppy is
reported to be suffering from a
cold already, and the winter j
weather descending on the Sill
undoubtedly isn't helping it any.
The dog answers to the name
of Cookie, has a white, left rear
foot and a little tafland wants
to go home to its mother very,
very much.

Molotov Tics Up
Opening Session
Of Big Four Meet
London, Nov. 25 (UP)
The opening session of the
Big Four conference here
has been tied up by a dispute
over Austria, Soviet Foreign
Minister Molotov having flat
ly turned down a proposal
that the Austrian peace trea
ty be considered before the
German question.
Secretary of State Gccrc
Marshall led the fight to get
the Austrian treaty first cn
the agenda and he was fully
supported by the foreign
ministers of France and Brit
ain. Marshall pleaded that Aus
tria was the first country to
fall to the Nazis and should
receive justice. He warned
Molotov that the conference
must reach an agreement on
something quickly, as he put .
it, "to reassure the people of
the world."
Molotov insisted that the
German question is more im
portant than Austria r:nd
should come first. If Molotov
gets his way, it means that
if there is no agreement on
Germany and none is ex
pected the Austrian ques
tion will hang in the air for
a long time to come.
