Janie Night Editor for this issue Tom Peacock Iowa State Daily Breaks Tradition The all-college guessing game has come to an abrupt end It ended when Dr. James Harold Hilton was named to succeed Dr. Charles E. Friley as President of Iowa State College in July. To the public, Dr. Hilton was somewhat of a darkhorse candidate for the job. The names of educators most familiar to the campus populace included Dean Floyd Andre, of the Division of Agriculture, and Dean Harold V. Gaskill, of the Division of Science. Allan B. Kline, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation and an Iowa State graduate, also was considered as a possibility. These three men were among those given a great deal of consideration by the Board of Education. The Board's appointment of Dr. Hilton as Iowa States next president broke a rather consistent pattern which has been followed in the past by Iowa State's presidents. Dr. Hilton is an alumnus of Iowa State. He graduated with a B.S. degree in 1923. He is the first alumnus to become presi dent of the college. Dr. Hilton, soon to become the tenth Iowa State presi dent, is not a native Iowan. In this respect, his appointment follows the general trend. Only one native Iowan, Dr. R. M. Hughes, now president emeritus was chosen . . . This information stacks the background of the next presi dent against those of past presidents. Looking over the rec ord that Dr. Hilton has made in his lifetime, it seems there is little need for comparison. It can stand alone. North Caro lina's loss is Iowa's gain. Express The students of Carolina are preparing to celebrate our pe riod of National Thanksgiving, and immediately following this we look forward to the Yule tide. We greet all students at the beginning of this holiday season with wishes for Health and Hap piness. As you receive your let ter the 1952 Christmas Seal Sale gets under way across the nation. Once again, as has become the tradition here at Carolina in the past, good Tar Heels will pour out their hearts in the form of inch square stamps to combat tuberculosis.

Be cause of the belief of the Union that the case against Saturday classes has not yet been fully and effectively presented, the following resolution has been prepared and is offered in en tirety. All persons interested in the subject are invited to at tend and take part in the dis cussion. ' ' WHEREAS: The executive committee of the Board of Trustees of the University of North Carolina has instructed the administration of this Uni versity to prepare a schedule for a six-day class week; and WHEREAS: There has been considerable protest by the stu dent body and continued op position by the Administration during the four year period that the matter has been under consideration, and WHEREAS: It is felt by the Union that the recent action concerning Saturday classes and the student reaction to it has not been handled as well as it might have been, and WHEREAS: The Union feels a great vacuum of facts con cerning the institution of a six day class week; THEREFORE BE IT BY THE CAROLINA POLITICAL UN ION RESOLVED: ARTICLE I. that the Board of Trustees should reverse the decision of the executive com mittee concerning the institu tion of a six-day class week at the University of North Caro lina at Chapel Hill. In a spirit of co-operation and factual approach we offer the following reasons in sup port of our stand. 1) Saturday classes will not solve the mass exodus ; prob lem because a) according to surveys by the office of the Dean of Women and the Psy chology Department there is no mass departure of students on the weekend, and b) stu dents go home when they do go home largely because they have little homelike atmos phere here. 2) There hav been no sound academic reasons advanced to us proving the advisability of this action. 3) Our Administration and faculty have held since 1948 that a six-day class week would be impractical and a poor mo rale factor. 4) The University at Chapel Hill has unique opportunities, traditions, and problems which would not facilitate the adop tion of this system as used by N. C. STATE and W. C. 5) Saturday classes would rob the Carolina student of valuable time used for econom ic employment, extended study, and cultural absorbtion, while adding little of value to the student. 6) While the entire Board has decided that this action should bQ taken sometime, the executive committee meeting which decided that the time should be now, saw only five out of twelve members voting. We feel that not only is this procedure unsound, but that al so the Board should be consider ing the effects of the approach ing war and the method of se lection of military manpower which may result in an extreme ly reduced student body. ARTICLE II. That, while the student 'body and their student government should be commend ed for their energy in opposing the decision of the executive committee, they should be rep remanded for hasty and ill-considered action in the use of emo tionalism and name-calling, and for not approaching the matter in a quiet, considered, gentle manly, factual manner. ARTICLE III. That the Board of Trustees as an alternative and more effective solution to the problem should take the fol lowing steps: 1) Make all possible speed in providing the student body with an adequate Student Union building to help replace the at mosphere and facilities lost by not going home. 2) Take immediate steps on problems which have been, un der investigation by the Board and Administration such as the Advisee system, free class cut policy, over stress in the gradu ate level, and over-loading of many professors and instructors. 3) Increase the self-help and 'ft-- "A 1 Lj( I -g--- rr55 v Wy9r' b The Washington Merry WASHINGTON What Har ry Truman told Dwight D. Eis enhower and vice versa is known directly only to the two men themselves. But what is known is what President Tru man told intimates he said to Ike. . Both men were obviously ner ous before and after their inter view. One friend who talked to Truman just before he saw Eis enhower, noted that he looked fidgety and dropped some pa pers. Eisenhower also looked nerv ous and wiped perspiration from his barren brow after the con ference.v The version which the Presi dent gave one of his closest friends also indicates that the two men were a little tense at first. But he broke the ice by telling Ike something like this: 'Tve been in politics for 40 years. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. That's poli tics. "Sometimes you have to say some harsh things in politics, because everyone's out to win. But let's forget all that. "The only important thing is the future. I want to help you in every way. I want you to have as much assistance as we can give you between now and scholarship program. 4) Help students become more mature and responsible students and citizens by helping them in their extra-curricular activities by providing a) trained faculty advisees, b) more building space and equipment, and c) academic Lv k&Wl axiup onj-v , W& A-eom' is abound-uxx-i ' Rx-tAYocAT the "irjyl'i TAKE OCTAJ-L MAH VASSUH, SSA I TWIN'T'CWISS.1.

"I only wish I could have been briefed before I to,ok this job. President Roosevelt's death hit me like a thunderbolt. I didn't even attend a cabinet meeting. I don't want you to go through that." Truman pointed to a sign on his desk which read: "The buck stops here." "Every government official has a boss to whom he can pass the buck except the Presi dent," he said, according to the account given a friend. "But when it gets to the President, he has no one to pass the buck on to. 'The buck stops here.' " Mr. Truman had also prepared for the President-elect a series of loose-leaf notebooks contain ing copies of all his executive orders, reports on defense pro duction, and charts showing ex actly the amounts of production achieved in every strategic ma terial. He told friends that he hoped these would be of value to Eisenhower and he certainly wished someone had prepared such reports for him when he took office in 1945. When Eisenhower and Tru man appeared in the cabinet room a minute or so later they were smiling and appeared to be congenial. At this second and enlarged meeting, Secretary of State Dean Acheson did most of the talking. One important point he made was that, unless Eisenhower made some reassuring statement about continuing the present You - Go - Round policy for Europe, the govern ments of France and Italy might fall. Eisenhower interrupted at this point to say that he had already made one such statement, but he did not elaborate as to what statement he referred to. Acheson also said he was "un happy" about the split between the United States, Canada, France and England over the Indian proposal on Korean pris oners of war, but said he felt that our differences could be re paired though he did not indi cate any approval of the Indian proposal. He also discussed the Decem ber 15 meeting of the North At lantic Pact nations originally scheduled to make important de cisions on . Army strength for the next two years. Britain and France want to proceed with the meeting as scheduled on Decem ber 15, though because of the changeover of administrations in Washington, no important de cisions will be made. ( Secretary of the Treasury Snyder gave a report on the fi nances of our Allies, warning especially of the economic pre dicament of France and Italy. England, he felt, was not in such bad shape. Secretary of Defense Lovett talked chiefly about Korea and defense production. The latter was the only domestic question discussed during the entire con ference. Neither President Truman nor General Eisenhower did much talking during the conference. It was purely a briefing session, I eom POZVCf .. . .. i I'll GO At-ONS AN7 Yourself Express Dear Mr. Freshmen: I am a bit surprised at the difference between you and your counterpart of ten years ago. You are no younger on the av erage, your experience before coming to Carolina are generally the same, but your interests and and willingness to try your ath letic potentialities are quiet dif ferent. , Ten years ago from a smaller freshman class some sixty to seventy boys would try out for freshman swimming. Although we did not cut the squad about half of the group would drop out, developing other interests. The remainder formed the nu cleus of a group of boys whose hard work brought Carolina rec ognition in swimming. There were no scholarship swimmers and many had never been on a siwmming team before, yet they went on to become outstanding performers. Many were pre-med and pre-law students, some were self help students, yet they found time by arranging their academic and athletic work to swim. The important fact is that "many" had a desire to try out for the team with a goodly num ber enjoying the fun of work and competition enough to stay with it. This year thirty-five freshmen reported for the first meeting. Twelve quit without ever com ing to the pool,' seven others have for some reason dropped out. Thus only sixteen boys out of over eight hundred apparent ly have the interest to try out for swimming only four of these have had previous com petitive experience. If this is all of the men in the freshman class with an in terest or desire to try out for freshman swimming that is fine. I wonder though why you are so different, why you wouldn't try some sport. It is puzzling that such a distinct change should occur in the interests and desires of young men in such a short period of time. This is no plea for swimmers, we only desire boys who want to swim and who are willing to do the work necessary to be good in swimming or any other sport. This is a challenge to you, Mr. Freshman, to ask yourself if you have the interest and desire to be on an athletic team, and if so, why are you unwilling to at least try. Dick Jamerson, Prof Physical Education Editor: In answer to Ira Davis' letter of Nov. 10. Dear Mr. Davis, If making you take boxing and tumbling twice a week ser ves no other purpose than to make you take a shower twice a week, the whole program is justified. Check Goodin with little opportunity or neces sity to talk. When Eisenhower came out of the White House the grim and irritable manner noted by re porters was probably because he was surrounded with newsmen. He had expected a military aisle through which to walk, and re marked that he thought things had been outrageously handled. NATURAL , ACCOPPiN' TO WHOM i3 TWS n Average time ( laUoa: IS wiaate.
