Night Editor for this issue: Louis Kraar The Raleigh News ond Observer The Long And Short Of t Nobody who remembers his own college days will be surprised that students at Chapel Hill, who have been having no classes on Saturdays, are indignant over a proposal by the trustees calling for classes on that day. In the long ago students tried to work out their schedules so they could duck Saturday classes, too, and if possible, any 8:30 a. m. classes during the week as well. The short work day and the long weekend seem familiar goals of man and boy, citizen and student. Clearly, however, there is something funny in a consoli dated university in which boys at State College and girls in the Woman's College at Greensboro have classes on Saturday while teachers and students at Chapel Hill get the whole day off. It may be that the boys in Raleigh and the girls in Greensboro are unduly oppressed but certainly the boys and girls in Chapel Hill ought not to be entitled to special Satur day treatment. Good cases have been made out for the five-day week among working men as well as laboring students. Also both professors and students have made out elaborate cases to prove that 15 hours of class attendance and less than that of class teaching cannot be regarded as the true work week of the teacher or students. Both, they say, labor long and late outside the classrooms even maybe on Saturdays. It seems possible, however, that the trustees, recognizing the increasing costs of college plants and staffs, felt that if plants and staff could be profitably utilized by other colleges on Saturdays, they might be profitably used for the benefits of the students and the State at Chapel Hill, too. They may have felt that neither the purposes or the pupils or even the teachers were essentially different at Chapel Hill from those at the two other parts of the university. ' The argument in this matter will undoubtedly proceed with much indignation and some erudition. It will be a good thing for it to proceed. - Saturday classes or no Saturday classes is a subject for debate into which a scholar can put his heart. One thing would seem to be- clear even now, however. That is that one decision would seem to apply to all three of the units of the Greater University. It is doubtful that even Chapel Hill would be served -even if its students could sleep later on Saturdays by a verdict that Chapel Hill is the school of the long weekend and the short week while the colleges in Greensboro and Raleigh are the long week, short weekend, hard working institutions. One rule ought to prevail at all parts of the university. There is nothing special about the students, their labors or their climate at Chapel Hill which justifies any special exemption or exception. On Saturdays as well as other days all students in the Greater University should be fed out of the same spoon. ya ia Is i Nf r r r r m - I !r IL !Ll!ll!l . , . -iVV i - i TTTT ' J s p p m 11 1 EH 1Mb HORIZONTAL 1. calm 6. cheek bone il, stoves 12. shunned 14. indefinite article 15. changed 17. mother 18. duct 20. penetrating tastes 21. the heart 22. feminine name 24. bond 25. recent 26. canonized 28. rescues 29. meadows 30. excavation for digging ore 31. hurl 33. hero of First Crusade 36. jargon 37. possessive pronoun 38. grafted (her.) 39. floor covering 40. needs 42. perched 43. hypothetical force 44. official agreements 46. religious denomination (abbr.) 47. testify 49. long, narrow sword 51. measured medications 52. boxes Answer to yesterday's puzzle.

At last campus politicians have overlooked partisan poli tics and come to the aid of the students on an important issue. The unusual cooperation of both parties with each other and the students was beautiful to watch as they battled Saturday classes last week. Sights like that of Ham Hor ton's office, frequently a scene of UP caucuses, filled with SP and UP party members working side by side, and UP and SP leaders unrolling the many yards of student petitions were rare indeed. Too rare. Whether or not the battle against the extra day of classes is won seems almost unimport ant. What is vital is that for once student government leaders went to work for the students that they represent all stu dents and strived for a com mon cause. That's pretty hard to beat, even for trustees. THE HOME STRETCH: To day is the day that students pick their leaders in student govern ment. Among those leaders, but not a political post, is going to be a new Daily Tar Heel editor. Walt Dear, slightly frenetic chairman of the Publications Board, has exerted every ounce of his nervous energy in his campaign. A little more placid, Biff Roberts, sports editor, has steadily and calmly plodded the course of campaigning. Both are proficient newspapermen. Either would make a satisfactory edi tor. But only one can be select ed, and who that one is is to be up to the students. HIS MASTER'S VOTE: Ham Horton (UP) at the University Party meeting peptalking cand idates, "You can put up all the pretty little posters you want, but if you don't go around, shake that hand, and give 'em that smile, you can't win." BLACK MAGIC: The newest campaign promise is "I will get rid of Saturday classes." Two overly-enterprising and probab ly overly-ambitious candidates for Legislature in Cobb Dorm , added that promise to their list. The elaborate posters, one of which ironically sat on a steam ing radiator, and free cigarettes . that they distributed weren't elements of a sane rational campaign. They won't win con- fidence or votes that way. POUNDING THE BEAT: Bill Brown (SP) knocking on Cobb Dorm doors to get those votes ... Bob Little and Gaither Wal ser (UP) loudly drumming up the vote in "H Dorm" . . Biff Roberts taking time out from sports editing for a little cam paigning . . . Ken Penegar (SP) giving an old soldiers farewell at Legislature for Sol Cherry (UP), Henry Lowett (SP), and . himself . . . Gene Cook (SP) mentioned for Speaker at the State Student Legislature by political leaders on campus . . . Bob Gorham (UP) lending that helping hand in the beat Satur day sessions move . . . Gordon Forester (SP) at the campaign headquarters for his party . . . modest Herb Cohn (SP) quietly, but surely running for Student Council . . . Sol Cherry (UP) caught with his political pants down when asked for his party's platform . . . and the lack of campaigning. i OVER-HEARD IN Y COURT: "There's no sense in trying to fight Saturday classes. It's really not up to us. No, I don't want jthem. Sign a petition? Are you bidding. Don't believe in them." The Ram Sees The Ohio State Yearbook, Makio, has thrown a new twist in the publications business. This year the Makio will be wired for sound, the first college yearbook in the nation to try such an idea. There will be a special recording of highlights of the year on a 45 RPM record, which will be . inserted in the back of the 650 page volume. UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. Secretary of State Dean Acheson and other top level U. N. diplo mats met privately yesterday to consider an Indian compromise proposal to end the Korean fight ing. Diplomats attending in ad dition to Acheson included Sel wyn Lloyd, British minister of state, Harvard Lange, Norwegian foreign minister, and Paul Martin, Canadian minister of health. "We -.r The Washington Merry-Go-Round WASHINGTON It's been 20 years almost to the day that an other President-elect called on an outgoing President, as Dwight D. Eisenhower calls on Harry S. Truman today. President Hoover was bitter then, just as President Truman is today. All sorts of charges had been hurled at his admin istration, just as charges have been hurled at Truman by the man he once proposed for Presi dent of the United States. However, for the good of the country, as today, they sat down together. With them sat grave, long faced Raymond Moley, top Roo sevelt brain truster who later quarreled with his boss and has been bitterly against the Dem ocrats since; also cherub-faced Ogden Mills, Secretary of the Treasury. Hoover talked in a monotone, at times plaintively. He reviewed the toboggan slide of British finances, told of the dangerous economic state of the world. The President-elect listened, talked little. Finally Mr. Hoover said: "Now, Governor Roosevelt, I wonder if I could speak to you alone." The others withdrew, Hoover talked longer to the President elect regarding Britain's desper ate condition. Coming out of the White House later. Governor Roose velt told Moley: "We're not go ing back. T don't want to get mixed up in this." Today, 20 years later, Eisen hower likewise declines to share HOT HAIN 'T - MV .irr V lik. n "i, t , 'ZI phoo f guT, With that )i Apmts I ccwepovbkto Vm stiu. puttin' Y hops vdu pint IHATESTOVUP iiOTHEE PEU-ES 1 7DU LOOKS POR.ISYA CUP OP .

But the time between election and in auguration is shorter now, and at least two of his representa tives are working with the out going administration. It's a 100-to-l bet that Joseph Dodge, the Eisenhower adviser on budget problems, will not become Secretary of the Treas ury or budget director, as some observers have speculated. For some of Ike's advisers aren't at all happy about the discovery that Dodge borrowed money from the RFC for his Detroit bank in 1933 and did not pay it back until this year. They feel that with the Repub lican party having talked loud ly about "keeping out of the red," Eisenhower couldn't afford to appoint a man whose bank has been in the red to the gov ernment for 19 years. Dodge has been President of the Detroit bank since 1933. On Dec. '31, 1933, the bank bor rowed $4,000,000 from the RFC in order to keep from folding. Repayments on the loan were scattered and irregular. By the beginning of this year, the bank still owed $2,000,000. But strangely this large sum was suddenly paid up in full on May 20, 1952. In order to pay it, the bank issued new pre ferred stock to private interests. Mr. Dodge is still president of the bank, on loan to General Eisenhower. Washington's lame-duck Sen.

( The .Budget?" leave the Senate that he is pull ing strings to get the relatively unimportant job of sergeant-at-arms. This has brought him into a backstage clash with New York's powerful Congressman Dan Reed, who is boosting his son, Bill, for the post. The junior Reed is now deputy ser-geant-at-arms and is counting on his daddy to .help him move up. Congressman Reed will pack a lot of weight in the next Con gress as boss of the House Ways and Means Committee, which fixes the nation's taxes. But the Senate is known to be sym pathetic to ex-members of its exclusive club; so senatorial courtesy will probably prevail and the ex-senator may get the job. Senator Cain has whispered that he is anxious to take the step-down job for the sake of his wife, whom he almost di vorced to marry a Senate secre tary four years ago. Mrs. Cain prefers the Washington social whirl to the ' humdrum life of Tacoma, Wash. Note Senator Cain has told friends he can't figure out why he was defeated in a state that gave Eisenhower an easy ma jority. Chief, reason was the drive and personality of his op ponent, newly elected Senator "Scoop" Jackson. Another rea son was Cain's close political liaison with Senator McCarthy.

On Wednesday "Viva Zapata," starring Marlon Brando as the Mexican guerilla leader, will be playing the Varsity. It was here not so long ago, but for those who have not seen it previously, it is well worth seeing. The same can be said for "High Noon," on Thursday at the Caro lina. Starring Gary Cooper, this Stanley Kramer production is the best western to come out of Hollywood in many a moon and the Lord only knows there has been a lot of them. "Daniel and the Devil," which will be at the Varsity on Thursday, originally appeared about ten years under the title of "All that Money Can Buy' The movie is a superb adapta tion of Stephen Vincent Benet's "The Devil and Daniel Webster" and stars the late Walter Huston as the Devil (one of his most famous roles), Edward Arnold . as Webster and James Craig as Jabez Stone. On Tuesday and Wednesday the Carolina will be presenting "The Thief," one of the years most talked about films. Acting on the old theory that actions speak louder than words, the producers have made the movie without using one word of dia logue. This is not to say that "The Thief" is a silent film; it is far from that, for it gains much of its suspense from the use of all kinds of sound effects and background music. It is simply that the picture in telling the story of a nuclear physicist who gives secret information to the Russians revolves around a number of situations in which words would be superfluous and in some cases detrimental to the plot. To say that the experiment is completely successful would not be entirely correct, for the limitation that the movie has set upon itself prevents adequate motivation of the leading char acter and tends to make the physical actions which are the manifestations of his thoughts repetitious. Nevertheless, if only for the novelty of seeing a silent talkie, students will probably enjoy "The Thief." Ray Milland turns in a powerful performance as the traitor, and Rita Gam is "silent and sexy." Senate floor, Cain was always the first to do so. Russians and Prisoners Ma dame Pandit, head of the Indian Delegation to the United Na tions, believes there is no chance whatever of arranging a truce in Korea even with Eisen hower directing the negotia tions: Madame Pandit has talk ed secretly with foreign min ister Vishinsky. Each time the Russians flatly refused to listen to any concession regarding prisoners of war. JUNIOR CLASS VOTE alter Pridgen TREASURER f A
