Plenty Smoke But Shortage of Fire An electric stove that had been turned on for at least 20 minutes, locked doors, and a lot of smoke were the major opponents of the Chapel Hill fire department yes terday when they answered a call to East Franklin street. The fire, at the residence of Miss Mary Manning, sent forth more smoke than it did flames. Originating in the kitchen of an apartment just rented by Mrs. Mebane, the fire had spread very little when the firemen arrived. A shelf over the electric stove , had been badly burned and the walls around the stove were hot. The electric stove and a f rigid - aire had just been installed yes terday morning. In the afternoon some boxes had been piled on the stove. The boxes were thought by firemen to have contained some books and canned goods.

Long of the state high way division yesterday warned that people whose names begin with the letters E, F, and G arc not renewing their drivers li censes. Long said that all licenses for people whose names begin with these letters must be renewed by January 1. "If people vait until mid November like they usually do, they'll be caught in the rush and will have to spend several hours down here getting their licenses," Long pointed out. Any student who accepts em ployment during school will be required to procure an N. C. li cense. Anyone who has had an examination since July, 1945 will only have to fill in the form and pay the required fee. But if he has not renewed his license since then he must take the road test, eye test, road sign test and writ ten'examination. If he has a valid out of state license the procedure is the same.

He didn't show up and a court attachment was issued forf him. He was supposed to appear again yesterday to answer speed ing charges, but again he failed to appear. . Will Defend His Cause Warriner Works Hard for Student Government; Friends Give Him Rating of 'Good7 Politician 'Editor's note: This is the first in a series of Daily Tar Heel feature articles on personalities on the Carolina campus.) By Bill Buchan Dortch Warriner is a campus politician. This, of course is no novelty among the dozens of self- made politicoes on campus, but Warriner is unusual in the line because he rates as a "good poli tician". Good politicians are rated as such, because in the opinion of their friends and associates they work not only for their in dividual party but for the better ment of the campus student government as a whole. Warriner's rise as a campus "wheel" began almost immedi ately after he transferred here last September from Berea Col lege in Kentucky. He joined the Student party and quickly rose through the ranks of the group until he was appointed to fill a vacancy in the student log;s lature in January. F-3371 F-3361 Carolina Favored In Important Tilt By Buddy Vaden ATHENS, Ga., October 1 The University of North Caro lina football squad is due to arrive here tomorrow morning at 7:15 on a special train from Raleigh, North Carolina. The Tar Heels, 38 strong, will make their headquarters in the Holman . hotel. Accompanying the players are Coaches Carl Snavely, Russ Murphy and Max Reed, along with managers and trainers. Thp Tar Heels will face Coach Georgia Spirit Seems Listless To UNC Invaders By Chuck Hauser ATHENS, Ga., Oct. 1. Fifteen hundred University of Georgia students held a half-hearted pre Carolina game pep rally here tonight at which two scheduled speakers. Coach Wally Butts and team co-captain Weyman Sellers, failed to appear. Nine cheerleaders and a 50 piece band had little success in attempts to bring out a show of school spirit. When a michro phone wielding Georgia cheering squad members asked the throng, "Are we going to beat Carolina tomorrow?" A cynical "Like hell" could be heard from a student in the background over a weak "yes" from the meager repre sentation of the 7,000 member student body. Bulls No Speak After several cheers and songs accompained by the loud if not harmonious band, repeated re quests for Wallace Butts to speak as scheduled were greeted with silence from the crowd. Appar ently Sellers decided not to speak, either, for the next step in the preceedings was a demand that all freshmen, not the entire pep rally crowd, immediately join in a "victory" snake dance around a huge bonfire which was the only big and exciting event of the evening. The cheerleaders, male and fe male, and a handful of freshman were hardly able to form a half circle around the blazing pile of boxes and timber. At. 8:30 tonight, after the Geor gia pep rally closed down shop, two cars of Carolina students pulled into town, apparently the first of many to arrive this even ing and the impromptu pep rally they tossed at the edge of the Georgia campus was enough to put the Bulldogs to shame. As far as enthusiasm, if not actual volume, was concerned. Spirit All Tar Heels It was obvious that there would be plenty of spirit in thens be fore the night was over, but it would be all Tar Heel spirit. Crys for the band to play "Dixie" were finally heeded to ward the end of the 40 minute rally, followed shortly after by (See GEORGIA, page 4) . In the legislature, he served as a member of Jess Dedmond's election committee and took an active part in the writing of the elections bill which was passed by the legislative group last spring. He was elected as treas urer of the SP. Warriner, a political science major, is an active member of the Naval ROTC and was one of the number of Tar Heels who parti cipated in cruises this summer. His particular cruise, in company with buddy John Stump, was aboard the U.S.S. Astoria and took the boys to Honolulu, San Francisco, Seatle, San Diego and other cities along the Pacific coast. He is a member of the Dia letic Senate, having served as chairman of the orientation and membership committees and is at present a member of the member ship group. Last spring he and Marshall Pennix copped the In tramural debate crown for White head Dormitory, where the two NUMBER 8 n u !y Wally Butts' Georgia Bulldogs here in Sanford Stadium tomor- row afternoon at 2:30. Pronounc ed only in fair physical condi tion by the trainers, the Tar Heels will put the same offensive and defensive teams on the field that saw action against Texas last weeks in Chapel Hill, with the possible exception of end Bob Cox, who has seen only light workouts throughout the past weeks. Starting Lineup Mainstay of the Carolina of fensive team will be tailback Charlie Justice, who had a hand in all five of the Tar Heels tallies last week. Justice, already a can didate for Ail-American honors, will be in the backfield with Ho sea Rodgers, fullback, wingback Johnny Clements, and blocking back Don Hartig. The Carolina line, which held the Longhorns to less than 50 yards on the ground in the Tar Heels' opener, will be the same, with Art Weiner and Cox or Mike Rubish at the ends, Chan Highsmith and Ted Hazelwood at the tackles, guards Bob Mitten and Sid Varney, and center Dan Stiegman. Using a two-team system in augurated last year against William and Mary, Coach Snavely . will have as his defensive start ing team ends Ken Powell and Mike Rubish, Haywood Fowle and Len Szafaryn at tackles, Bill Wardle and Larry Klosterman at guards, Irwin Holdash and Bobby Weant backing the line, Bill Flamisch and Johnny Clements at halfbacks, and safety Bill Maceyko. Georgia Always Rugged Georgia, always a rugged team for the Tar Heels to tackle, will be the underdogs in tomorrow's contest on the basis of their showing against little Chatta nooga. Although the Bulldogs won the game by one touchdown, they did not show much power in do ing so. On the other hand, the Tar Heels climbed to the top of the national football rating list with their impressive 34-7 triumpt over a supposedly latent Texas aggregation. In the two Georgia- Carolina encounters last season, "one in the Sugar Bowl, eoch ' team was credited with a win. TSihe Bull dogs came out on top in the bowl game, 20-10, while the Tar Heels won the regular season game in Chapel Hill, 14-7. (See FOOTBALL, page 4) . . . At Drop of Hat were living at the time. Dortch rooms with Pinnix this year in 313 Grimes. Mentioned occassionally as a potential presidential candidate (a rumor which he denies), War riner is getting a close-up view of top student government pro blems as a member of the student body president's coalition cabinet and as a member of the highly successful committee. His views and opinions on local political questions are re spected and sought out by stu dent government workers, both SP men and those belonging to the University or Campus parties. That Dortch Warriner is am bitious, that he plans big things for himself after his college life is finished, is obvious in his every day work and plans. He's one of the many hard workers here who are interested only in improving our student government for the benefit of the entire student body. He's a man with ideas and he's definitely a man to watch.
