Hal Miller eiigioos We were sitting at a counter in a Toddle" House about: -midnight not along Cago, drinking -coffee and ; listening to a loquacious counterman explain his religion. 'Tm a vegetarian, see. You know why?" We did not and we were enjoying our hamburger. : "You're eating a cow. Well, I don't particularly like cows, buti f you eat cows you might as well eat cats and dogs and horses. I got the prettiest cocker pup you ever saw. Would you eat my puppy?" . We admitted that we would not. ''I'm a Seventh Day Adventist, too. You know, the Bible explains that the seventh day is on Saturday, instead of Sun day. Saturday is the real Sabbath, and I don't do any work on Saturday, no matter what." -: The joker next to us quipped, "We don't care what day the Seventh Day is; because we're all atheists." ."Jhat's all right," our counterman said kindly. - "You can go to heaven no matter what kind of Christian you are." He had a point. Which leads us to the hope that every church in Chapel Hill will be filled this morning. fired Of H onorr To most students at this time, that phenomenon of "truth of thine ownself" known as the honor code is a hackneyed subject. In sports, in academic life, in everyday affairs, it has been impressed upon them repeatedly. v Moreover, it has recently; become an issue worthy of the front page in news papers all over the country. v To some students, the code is just a couple of paragraphs in the handbook which means be honest or get kicked out of school. To others, it is something connected with one's own conscience, but in one comment emanating from a corner of the "Y" Court, a plaintiff charged, "They've raved about the honor system so much that I'm going insane; I'm sick and tired of it!" , . To that person and to all others who feel that honor is a cliche, we wish to say this:; If honor is a trite matter to hat person, we hope that his whole life is a trite existence, for honesty should become a part of everything we do, a na- , tural reflex uppermost in our minds at all times; therefore, :et's not tire of hearing or thinking about it until we are tired of living. BB Same Old Sfory JTherJ Court Litter-ature Society is at it again. Letters Madam Editor, In the issue of The Daily Tar Heel dated September 21, 1951, there, appears an editorial bear ing the title "It Must Be Won derful," and signed by MW. This article is a' clear libel upon two public servants of the State of North Carolina, Congressman Harold D. Cooley and Superior Court Judge W. H. S.-Burwyn. I call 7your attention to the following: ' : ' -I ; " ' "He oqley) hemently. in sulted arid attempted to assault the chief ofv police, who pulled himi After much snorting, his trial came before court and he was aequitecl." ; - ; Referring to the March 6 edi tion of the News and Observer ( Raleigh N. C. ) , page 1 , col. 2 (1931), I find the following, under-' the title "Cooley Pleads Guilty, Pays Fine,' by Jay Jen- . kins:, V:-; , :'V - "Nashville, March 5 Dapper . Congressman Harold D. Cooley today. pai4 a fine of $25 and costs for speeding . . . . m. Thus, it can be seen that your editorial writer is guilty of a serious misstatement of r the facts. sTelear inference that Mr. -Coo - does "fear the wrath of the public" he serves, is a vicious slander of Congress man Cooley. . J udge Burgkyn was tried in a duly constituted court of law in the State of Virginia, where he was charged with commiting the crime referred to., .This court, ' after hearing the evi dence, found that Judge Bur- gwn was not guilty of the of -r fense charged. That is a judi cial finding of fact, and the in ference of your writer, MW, that the - facts were otherwise is another libel. 1 have no idea who this self appointed jurist on your staff is,, but I intend to find out. I call his attention to' The North Carolina General Statutes, sec- tion 14-47 (1943), which reads: "If any person shall state, de-. liver or transmit by any means whatever, to the manager, edi tor, publisher or reporter of any newspaper or periodical for publication therein any false and libelous statement concern . ing any. person or corporation, . and thereby secure, the publica tion of the same, he . shall be guilty misdemeanor." , - In addition to being a viola-., , By David "Aloxahdcr "Mr. Imperium": This is the picture . that I talked about in my last column, and it has been released. - This technicolor "musical is al most a flop, due1 to " handling, and not particularly due to Lana Turner and Ezio Pinza. It had been scheduled to open at Ra dio City Music Hall, but when screened at the studio, caused so much comment that it was withdrawn from that schedule and shelved, at least for the time being. Pinza nade this before :-- he made "Strictly Dishonorable" with JaneK Leigh, and this was to have been his big debut. As it turns out, the film is being shown one or two days in theatres where Lana usually enj oys a week, at least. It opened Friday - in Durham for a two-day run. The plot itself, has not been particularly worn from use, but it just doesn't have i what it -takes to make a, useful picture. From the start, there- is a bog down, and remains so until the next - to the last scene. Lana is a young American singing in It aly, and she is swept off her feet by a distinguished member of a royal family. The prince is called back to his country to take the throne and Lana makes her way to Hollywood. Twelve years later, the prince now a king, sees lovely Lana's picture in front of a Parisian Cinema. They )iave a rendezvous in Palm Springs, California, but their happiness is short lived. The king's prime minister has come to take the king back to his people. And so ends the pic ture, with Lana, and boss wav ing farewell to the king. The film is packed with per sonalities, including Debbie Reynolds, Marjofie Main, Barry Sullivan, and Sir Cedric Hard wicke, and Ezio manages to sing -three or four musical offerings. After seeing this film, I only look forward to some good M. G. M. musicals which are being filmed, "The Merry Widow," "The Student Prince," and "The Chocolate Soldier," PKCXjrAvxuo V"' BLONDE DOLLS: In 1943, Fox studios had a big musical ready for the cameras, but they lacked a lead ing lady. Betty Grable had the part- but became Mrs. James and Alice Faye was assigned. Miss Faye abdicted her throne to present Phil Harris with his first heir. There were three blondes left who could fill the ' bill J une Haver, an unknown, Martha Stewart,-a torchy voca - list, and Vivian Blaine, who had made several low budget films. , Haver was given a role in "Hornet In Indiana" along with Jeanne Crain, and this left Mar tha and Vivian. Vivian landed the part, died her blonde tresses to red," arid was billeoTas 'the cherry blonde.' "Greenwich Village" was the film, and Don Ameche and Carmen Miranda the stars. Viv was so well re ceived, that she followed up with the role Ethel Merman cre ated on Broadway in "Some thing For the Boys." Next came, "Nob Hill," "State Fair," and "Doll Gace." In "Doll Face," she again met Martha Stewart, who was to play the girl friend to an unknown singer, Perry Como. Martha was no stand out, so Vivian got her role in 'Three Little,.-; Girls I In- Blue"; with J une - Haver and -Vera- : Ellen. : - ; . . y - From then on, she received ,;Jhe cold ; shoulder and retired role in "I Wonder Whose Kissing - Her Now? " with June Haver and Mark Stevens. The film made money, but-JMartha's- op tion. was, dropped. - Last ; f all, a i new : musical op ened on B' way called. "Guys and Dolls" and in this show there was a, .bleached blonde named Adelaide. As Adeliade, Vivian "Blaine . made.. ,a . terrific, hit and was called "back io' Hollywood and M. G. M. signed her for a other hand, jgot . an. ; important role in "Skirts Ahoy" with Joan Evans, Esther Williams, and Vera-Ellen, the same Vera that k she had known at Fox. When Miss ; Blaine left "duys and Dolls! - she was replaced by a . newcomer to Broadway, her , r name-r-Martha i Stewart. Who knows what isin store for her? Already she has been offered a chance to come back to glitter wood -as a star. At .any rate, i keep ; your eyes open- for Mar tha Stewart. One Vdfe By Paul Berwick Coed . Senate . ? passed j a law last year - which is . unconstitu tional. The Senate- passed a bill which takes late violations out of the ; hands of: the.; House Council and places- it in i the hands? of . the . Women's. Council if the girl is one hour or more late. ;4 Under the old set up, the House -Cciinl tried all late casesv Woweyer, las years a rgirl was sent ict the Women's Council for trial for being i late. - Later the girl appealed her case to the Student- Council - on the grounds that the Women's Coun cil had jio legal authority to hear a late violation case." The appeal 'was upheld by the Stu dent Councikv ; I s fv ; Li: i :, : . - . - . , Then, the Coed Senate passed its bill which said any girl com ing in under ' one hour late was to be tried by the House Council and any girl coining in, one hour late wasrto W trexl by the Wo. :;inen' febuntil. jri-l" r,- - s- v s-'--According to the Constitution, the House , Council :- tries all - dormitory . violations. Being late is a dormitory violation. . However, the Coed Senate said that after being late one hour, a girl automatically goes to the Women's Council. This is un constitutional and a bad policy, for duel jurisdiction is granted on a single law. It is" understandable that a girl is sent to the Women's Council after the fifth late of fense. But not after one late violation. Under some circumstances, a girl coming in 30 minutes late is more guilty of breaking either the Honor Code or Campus Code than a girl who is over an hour late. Therefore, I suggest that the bill by Coed Senate, dividing jurisdiction, be killed and let all late violations be placed in the hands of the House Council for original jurisdiction. However, reserve the right for the House Council to refer any case which it deems necessary to the Wo men's Council.
