The Daily Tar Heel Thursday, December 4, 1S52 Wht SBmto Ear wttl The official student publication ot 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 Entered 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 Editor Managing Editor -Business Manager Sports Edilor Night Editor for this issue: Tom Peacock Co-ordination? This is intensive studying time, even for those who have given regular daily attention to their academic work. In spite of this, there is a barrage of extracurriculars, most of them worthy of our time. Tuesday night, Secretary of the Army Frank Pace gave a rousing talk on the values of working for the government, and answered some important questions about the Army and the Korean War. Less than 200 students showed up. That same night, Will Herberg, philosopher, spoke on "Communism, Christianity, and Democracy." Last night you could take your choice: University Symphony, "The In spector General" at the Playmakers Theater, the Duke Mad rigal Singers, and. a basketball game. Tonight Arthur Loesser, distinguished pianist, performs at Hill Hall. Perhaps this is a healthy rash of extracurricular activity. But it is unfair to ask students to attend all these events dur ing the last few weeks of the quarter. We urge the Coordina tion Council of Graham Memorial, the group that handles the scheduling of activities on campus, to keep the last few weeks in the Winter and Spring quarters relatively free of a large scale extracurricular program. In Season We seldom compliment the merchants of Chapel Hill, stu dents mostly complain. However, the merchants of Chapel Hill deserve praise for restraining themselves on Christmas shopping. Some cities in the state have been boosting Christmas articles since July. Santa Claus parades are held on Thanksgiving Day. The lights, the music, the fanfare, and the other lures come out in October instead of December. The candles on the lightposts here didn't go up until this week. We can enjoy Christmas shopping in Chapel Hill this season in season. -Joe Raff- A Star Is Reborn What would you do if you had to get more laughs than Milton Berle or write funnier jokes than "Joe Miller? You would prob ably fail just like I am doing. The Dearest (to the Frosh our editor) fellow I know balled up to me not too many hours ago and questioned, "How would you like to do a review on the new Tarnation.' While I stut tered for an excuse Walt Dear was telling me where to pick up an early copy and giving me review instructions. The only in struction I got was "Make it funny I" He could have sooner thrown a copy of the Constitu tion of Bulgaria at me and made the same request. Tom Alexander, mother of the .giggle sheet, has given mirth to the reincarnated infant - The Tarnation. There is enough va riety to shame the Junior Cham ber of Commerce throughout the country. There is everything from "Filler" to a "Freshman Glossary" which explains to the neophytes that cheating is an unofficial eye-test. For the legal beagles wiry re corder Bill Brown contributed Robert's Rules of Order Re visedgiving living proof to the adage, there order be , a law. Included also is the classical "Out Damned Spot" which nar rates a young man's sentiments as he watches two tails disap pear in the distance. Ham on Wry and a photographic story of Hook's Tour by Jim White compromise another feather for rib-tickling. In addition to these depart ments the new Tarnation is not without out-and-out jaw-breakers. Here is a sampling: "There was a farm girl who returned from college after one quarter. Her father met her at the sta tion, and they drove home in the family tractor. On the way the girl snuggled up to Papa and confessed: "I ain't at all pure as I used to be, Papa; I ain't even a virgin." The father's face fell, the horse neighed, and there was a prolonged silence. Finally the father turned to his wayward daughter and said: "After all your Mother and I have done for you scrimped and saved to send you through college, worked our fingers to the bone and you still say ain't!" R. Taylor, drawing with one of Charles Adams' blood-filled pens couldn't have done better with the cartoons than did Jerry McMahon. Art Einstein and oth er members who had their jokes tacked to the roaring - boards. They were arty, tarty, and fine pieces of work. Any way you laugh at it, the Tarnation is well worth the buck for four issues. WALT DEAR ROLFE NEILL JIM SCHENCK BIFF ROBERTS Express Yourself Editor: . Some people who read this may classify it as a gripe, ohersj when they read it will say that the writer is a poor loser. I have written this letter neither to gripe nor to attack my oppon ent who won the election of the Freshman seat on the Honor Council On the contrary, I con gratulate him and wish him the best of luck. However, I write this letter as a protest; a protest against an article under the General Elec tions Laws. This clause spelled defeat for me and automatically conceded the election to my op ponent. The clause in the Elec tions Law states: "The candi dates involved in the run-off shall submit a request in writ ing 24 hours after the results of the initial elections are announ ced officially for there to be a run-off." It is a law; clearly and definitely stated, and I shall abide by it. But here are my only complaints: why were the candidates for offices in the fall elections not told of this clause at the required meeting which was held at Gerrard Hall? Why, after the elections, if my oppon ent was informed of this ruling, why wasn't I. I would like to enter a bill ffsJJf t ;nV,xl ' f J . -J, . -'VI I- ; 'jr l?yfA' TBS r "An Entertaining Movie!!

The program will feature a speaker from Venezuela. before the Student Legislature for the repeal of this law, or the adding of a provision to it stat ing that all candidates who are to be in run-off s be informed to that effect. Pele Adams To the Editor: The failure of our fair uni versity to make Senator Mc- Carran's honor role, accusations of harboring Communists, is truly alarming. There must have been an oversight; and we must demand a re-accusation. Can't we have at least one Socrates; the next generation will be truly lost unless they are indoctrinat ed with some sort of ideas (and the risk is inherent in playing with ideas of poisoning the mind). Surely any University, worthy of the name, which isn't accused of radicalism, Commun ism, or un-orthodoxy of some sort is not fulfilling its teaching funcjtion and should be ashamed to take the poor taxpayers mon ey. O. L- Crawford Ed. Note. Duke University was recently accused of having Com munist sympathizers on its fac ulty. V We make large loans on typewriters, watches, guns, clothing.
