Joe Raff atlj The official student publication of the Publications Board of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, where it is published daily, except Monday, examination and vacation periods, and during the official summer terms. Entesed as second class matter at the post office in Chapel Hill. N. C. under the act of March 3. 1879. Subscription rates mailed $4 per year. $1.-50 per quarter; delivered. $6 and $2.25 per quarter. Interim Editorial Board- IOLFE Managing Editor Business Manager Sports Editor Night Editor for this issue: Rolfe Neill The Greensboro Daily News Uniform Policy Needed In all probability this argument over Saturday classes at the University of North Carolina has been magnified out of proportion. But even with such allowance the basic policy involved calls now for careful study rather than any snap judgment or mass appeal one way or the other. Nor do we believe the decision should be left to faculty members or students, both of whom have special interest and a day to gain, however you may look at it, from the present five-day class schedule. As we understand, the quarter system, which allows for no classes on Saturday, was instituted at Chapel Hill well before the university's consolidation. The semester system obtained at the university's other two units at Greensboro and Raleigh and has so continued down the years. This difference is what the public, which after all has greatest interest in the Greater University and foots the bill for its operation does not understand. If five day classes are good for the University unit at Chapel Hill and hold certain advantages or benefits for students andor faculty why should not these same advantages or benefits rule at State and Woman's Colleges? Or, vice, versa, if Saturday classes are justified and bring certain advantages to these two units why should they not also apply to Chapel Hill? These are details which the trustees through proper channels, should study and analyze carefully; and unless full and sufficient reason can be given for existing dif ferences uniformity of policy should obtain. For what ever it may be worth, we note that Louis Graves, whose comments in the Chapel Hill-Weekly can generally be counted on to be as sage as they are sapient, declares for Saturday classes from his argument-side seat. Express Yourself Editor: I would like to suggest to the party responsible for the hiring and firing of the barbers that do the trimming in the basement of Graham Memorial please fire the present barber and get some one who will work when he is supposed to work. Last Saturday two other students and I waited for an hour to get a hair cut. Now don't get me wrong the wait would not have been so bad if the barber had been on the job, but he was not. The shop was open and thinking that the. barber had stepped out for coffee we entered and waited forjais return. After we had been there about 20 minutes the janitor came in and told us that the barber was in another room in the building and that he would tell him that we were waiting. We waited about 20 minutes more anticipating his return. No barber came so I started to leave. On my way out who should I see but the barber in the "Tarnation" office typing letters. I asked him-if the barber shop was open on Saturday mornings and he answered "yes." I then informed him that there were three of us waiting and had been for almost 40 minutes. He curtly informed me that if we didn't like to wait to go downtown. I then asked him if he was coming in to wait on his customers he answered that he would be in shortly. We waited another 20 minutes. This was more than I could take I left. Whether or not the barber ever came in or not I don't know ....

Miss Fradly started things off when she came out against Sat urday classes. Miss Kyke, not to be outdone, stated she was not only against Saturday classes, but was against all out side assignments by professors. In addition, Miss Kyke stood strongly for the serving of free beer between classes on the, steps of the Old South Build ing. Not to be outdone, Miss Kyke came out for both free beer and free love, to which Miss Fradly replied that she thought Miss Kyke had always been fairly free with her ove. "I'm not in favor of fre love, but I ap prove of the inexpensive kind," Miss Fradly stated. As election time neared, Miss Kyke hired a jet pilot to fly over dropping handbills. She also persuaded the Jones Pork Sausage people to alter their banner to r ad, "Jones Pork Sausage and Ila Kyke." But Miss Fradly was far from licked. Procuring a helicopter, she had herself lowered to the top of the bell tower, where she did a strip tease, accom panied by the chimes in the tower. Miss Fradley played another trump card when she appeared at a discussion of "How to Cure the Troubles of the World," and obtained the floor. Here she stated her unequivocal sup port of manhood, womanhood, and the American flag. When called upon by The Daily Tar Heel, Miss Kyke was furious. "That Madli Fradly wasn't interested in solving the world's problems. She just wanted to campaign," she as serted. "You can tell your read ers that I'm in favor of free speech and against sin." Election Day came, and many marched to the polls, like good little boys and girls. And when . the ballots - were ' count ed-lo, and behold, both Miss Fradly and Miss Kyke had lost. The winner, by a write-in vote, was Harry Truman. Many wondered why this strange jthing had happened. But the Chapel Hill Meekly, edited bv John L. Tombstones, explained it all in a stirring editorial: "When Miss Fradly came out in favor of the American flag, she lost the support of the stu dent body, for believing in keeping all the dear old tradi tions of Chapel Hill, the stu dents naturally upheld none but the flag of the Confederacy. "And Miss Kyke failed when she camnaigned against sin. For she should have known well that no student is against sin. Why would he come to college if he were? "Why was Harry Truman the selection? Being the only Dem ocratic campus in the country, the students didn't want poor old Harry left without a job after next January, so now he can stay in politics here at Car olina." Gray (Continued from Page 1) both at State and at Chapel Hill. In 1939-40, he said, it be gan with a grant budget of $28,000. This year its budget amounted to $350,000, Gray said. During the period since its inception, $2,000,000 has passed through the . institute, Gray declared. The institute at State is con cerned with applied statistics and the one at Chapel Hill deals with thbretical statistics. Gray also told the fellowship he had just returned from New York where he was negotiat ing for two grants, one for UNC and one for N. C. State. -Rally- (Continwed from Page 1) mory that jnight. The rally will be led from the intramural field to the Armory by the cheerleaders. This will be the last home football game of the year, Head Cheerleader Bo Thorpe point ' ed out. He asked all students to participate in Friday's rally, adding, "With the proper spirit , behind the Tar Heels we can show those Blue. Devils that we can beat Dook."

The Washington Merry-Go-Round WASHINGTON Here are some of the views of top Ameri can scientists behind the official announcement of the first explo sion of our first hydrogen bomb: 1. We know now that the II bomb can be made. Prior to this, we simply did not know. It was a most uncertain experiment. But we also know that before long the Russians are bound to, have an H-bomb too. 2. For psychological reasons it wras imperative that the free world beat the Russians in de veloping the first H-bomb. If the Russians had announced its perfection 'before we did, it might have thrown the free world, especially Western Eur ope, into panic. 3. The H-bomb will have only a limited number of targets when used by us, whereas for Russia it would have many more targets. In other words, the number of Russian industrial cities of any size is limited. And to the cold view of the military strategist, there is no use wast ing an H-bomb on a medium sized industrial city. On the other hand, our great industrial cities Detroit, Pittsburgh, Chicago, New York, Philadel phia fully merit the use of H-bombs by an enemy. 4. The scientists still do not know what might happen to the world's atmosphere if a large number of hydrogen bombs were to be exploded almost simultaneously. If, for instance, 100 H-bombs were to be explod ed in a short interval, the at mosphere of the earth might become so saturated with radio active material that all life on there's thb feulek what 1 ie BEEN GOIN' Nil TW5T,POeOt LOCKS UKE AN Ur TO NOW 1 19 EBMSiP APUUUN'OUT. lSx$mr7 Tr I v estuize -jers i ttzs, x 5 ' ' i i : Ifr. f"l VV T MUST & HS-eftf AfAA ) MAH FAVORrrE, ) OlZhASBOKES SO-VO'.s' A Hjffil w 1 Z. .

Scientists still do not know how much radioactive matter the atmosphere can stand, and some fear the final answer may come when it is too late. Since the United States is such an attractive H-bomb target, the scientists Xelt it was imperative that we know as much as pos sible about the new bomb so we can at least partly defend ourselves against it. This was the reason for the rushed -up Eniwetok explosion. President Truman, who has been burnt up at his old friend General Eisenhower, is planning to talk to him in a fatherly way at their conference Tuesday. However, some White House advisers predict that the Presi dent, frequently given to letting off steam, may talk more like a Dutch uncle than a Father. In advance talks with his ad visers, however, Mr. Truman has emphasized that he would tell the President-elect he want ed to let bygones be bygones and hoped to cooperate 100 per cent in arranging for a smooth transfer of government from one administration to the other. The main point he plans to make with Eisenhower is that the next two months will be ex tremely critical, and that the Russians could well take advan tage of American indecision and confusion to take over Iran, part of Germany or all of Indo china. The Kremlin, he will point out, may bank on the fact that an out-going administration would not want to take responsibility &U.

Yet, a brief period of indecision, while the Truman administra tion is bowing out and the Eisenhower administration bow ing in, might find a Russian Communist government sitting astride the oil reserves of Iran and the strategic gulf of Persia. Similar indecision also could be disastrous regarding Com munist putsches in Germany and Indo-China. 1. The December 15 NATO Conference. At this, the Atlantic Pact countries are scheduled to fix their budgets and goals for the next two years. However, unless Eisenhower cooperates with the Truman representatives who go to this conference there is no use having it. Truman will tell the General that unless that cooperation is forthcoming, he will have Secretary Acheson call the meeting off. 2. Prisoners of War Truman wants the President-elect to issue a statement that he sup ports the Democrats 100 per cent in refusing to repatriate Chinese and Korean prisoners who do not want to return to Commu nism. Unless there is unity on this point, Truman argues, the Communists will play the role of divide and conquer, and prisoner talks can get nowhere. 3. The French and North Af rica Premier Antoine Pinay and almost every political leader in France is sore because the United States has voted to let the United Nations discuss Arab independence in French North Africa. The French consider this an insult, and Premier Riff .by Raff Several years ago when I was still in high school and college looked like something that would never come, I stood out on a North Carolina highway and with my thumb in the breeze, I was determined to see how Carolina was railroaded to gridiron popularity under the guidance of Choo-Choo Justice. Well, I made it to Chapel Hill and my hopes of seeing high football spirit were augmented only by th reality of observing the stadium in a not-too-rare (for those conquering days) state of pandemonium. The tu mult of winning was ear-shattering and all the cheerleaders had to do was raise a finger and the stands would do vocal tumblesaults in praise of the bi blue bombers. I have to sort of chortle un der my breath and at myself for having been taken in by such a group of happy hailers. At the Virginia game (like many of the others during the last two years) I felt like I was sitting in a doctor's reception room. If there ever was abso lute silence it certainly existed in Kenan Stadium. What I am getting at is that the fault lies not with the cheerleaders or the team (or the coach though I doubt it), but with that finger-nail chew ing mob sitting around the for ty yard line. You know those people they are pretty garru lous about five o'clock in find ing fault with the cheering sec tion, the leader, the team, and the coach. What's wrong with the team is another matter and I'm not concerned with that now I just want to give a vertil castigation to those folk who complain about all these things and don't do anything about them. I guess the fact remains that people are people and that's their biggest mistake. I don't know this fellow Bo Thorpe, but if he were Eddie Arcaro I still realize he couldn't make a dead horse run. Getting those stands emotionally pitched is like trying to make J. P. Mor gan turn communist. Of course, we all want to see a winning team and it's diffi cult to feel elated over the pres ent pigskin situation after the memorable days of the reign of Justice. The boys out on the field this year however deserve just as much support. In fact, I think we all would agree that they could use a little more. To offer a remedy other than the obvious would be silly, so the only suggestion that re mains is to support what we have got even though we are not satisfied with it. Pinay has wanted to come to Washington to discuss the entire matter, plus French Indo-China, before the U. N. talks go any further. Since U. N. deliberation can not be postponed, this is another vital problem needing Eisen hower's decision. Friends of both the President and President-elect say that al though the sparks may fly at first they will cooperate together for the best interests of the na tion and in the end they will part as friends.
