Stassen, self-announced contender for the Re publican presidential nomination, announced in a letter to the Young Republican club that he might be able to appear before the student body of the University of North Carolina during the spring quarter.

New students are es pecially invited to become ac quainted with this and other features of the student union. , Bill Shuford, director of Gra ham Memorial, in announcing the dance, said, "It is my sincere hope that a large number of stu dents will turn out for this first dance of the season. Particular ly do we want them to avail themselves of the opportunity of utilizing Graham Memorial fa cilities more than they have done in thte past. We certainly want those students who have not been in the habit of visiting Graham Memorial to start the quarter off right." The regular Saturday night bingo session usually held in the main lounge will not be staged tonight, Shuford said, but will be held throughout the remain der of the quarter. "The staff of Graham Memori al," Shuford said, "is here for the sole purpose of serving the stu dent body.
