Na tional Safety Council spokesmen said they were sure that 400 deaths were an all-time record for a New Year's holiday but added they will have to study their files to de termine how much it surpassed the previous record.

The Dailv Tar TTppI will nnh-3 lish five days a week for the re mainder of the year at The News Inc. printshop in Hillsboro, Walt Dear, chairman of the Publications Board, announced yesterday. The student newspaper will ap pear everyday except Saturday and Monday, and will remain a seven columns. The new printer ly. the paper published everyday except Monday. "It was a question of size and cost. The board voted to remain sveen columns. The new printer was secured at a reduction in cost, but because of insufficient student fees, the board was forced to cut to five days a week," the chairman pointed out. Student fees have decreased pro portionately since the academic year 1947-48 when they reached $25,446.42. In '48-'49, they amount ed to $24,714.37; in '49-'50, $22, 828.53; in '50-'51, $18,949.86, and in '51-'52 $21,386.89. This year there is an estimated decrease from the figure $19,128.63 budget figure. The need for a new printer arose when Orville Campbell, president of Colonial Press, Inc., in Carrboro, told the board he would be unable to continue printing the newspaper in the Winter Quarter. Negotiations were opened for a new printer in the middle of De cmeber and The News Inc. turned in the lowest bid for a seven col umn paper. Hillsboro, the county seat of Orange County, is 14 mile's from Chapel Hill and is a half hour's drive from " here via " the new road. In the last two years, The Daily Tar Heel has switched sizes twice. In 1950-51 it cut its number of is sues from six to four times a week. The board hopes that the five day arrangement will be a permanent one. Ballet Group Will Perform In Durham DURHAM, Jan. 5.

Song Festival Coming Here For Thursday The "Festival of Song" will be presented here Thursday at 8 p.m. in Memorial Hall under the auspices of the Student En tertainment Committee. The Chapel Hill perform ance is part of the festival's first nation-wide tour which will take the company of 33 people 16,000 miles through 36 states. The conductor is Dr. Lara Hoggard.

Two of the three buildings are complete and the third should be ready by about January 15. Work remaining to be done is mostly concerned with outfitting the south building, officials say. This includes installation of chairs, desks and bookshelves. All of the seats in the auditorium of the center building have been install ed. None of the buildings have yet been named. This job falls to the Trustees. At present, the Business Administration School occupies Bingham Hall. No final disposition of Bingham has yet been made. The three new BA buildings are behind on their completion sche dule. They were hampered in December-January, 1950-51, by a strike of bricklayers, whose work shutdown at that time also affect ed some $15,000,000 worth of other UNC building underway. Later shortages of materials also pro longed the buildings' completion. F. J. leClair, University land scape gardener, recently reported that some 4,000 plants are being set out in front of the three new buildings and the hospital. In the open spaces, leClair said, he is us ing mostly oaks, maples, poplars and dogwoods, utilizing broadleaf evergreens near the buildings. For the court of the BA school, leClair said he is selecting trees that will match as nearly as possi ble those in the Manning-Saunder-Murphey court on the opposite side of the mall that runs from South Building to the Library. The new BA buildings stand be hind Memorial Hall on ground for merly used as a parking area. Duke Artist Has Exhibit In Morehead A collection of watercolors of North Carolina and other scenes by a Duke University artist, Robert L. Blake, are now on view in South Gallery of the Morehead B;uilding. A member of the Durham Art Guild and of the art faculty of Duke, Blake has exhibited in many Durham and local art shows and has won the popular award the last two years in the guild's spring exhibit. He also has won five awards from the North Carolina State Fair over the last three years, and early last spring he had a one man show at the Bek Art Galleries in Durham. A native of New Jersey, Blake studied at the Graphic Sketch Club, a Philadelphia art school, and has for a time head photog rapher and fashion artist for Kraft and Phillips, a men's fashion com pany in Philadelphia. During the war he served with the armed forces and was stationed at Duke for a time where he as sisted in the medical illustration department. Following the war he remained to become a member of the Duke Art Department as in structor in medical art and il lustration. TUCWFS r or Todaw were tacked to the front doors of all but one Greek letter house. The Chi Psi Lodge, which recently un derwent remodeling, was the only house to escape the building in spectors' disapproval. The build ings are condemned above the first floor. Local firemen and officials of the State Department of Fire In surance who conducted the inspec tion found, in the main, one ma jor thing wrong. Two methods of exit are required from every floor, and none, with the exception of Chi Psi, met the specification. The inspectors also suggested that the town electrical inspector make a check of wiring in the buildings. "The wiring in the older build ings apparently wasn't designed to take care of the load imposed on it," wrote State Engineer Kern Church. "These wiring systems are dangerous because of overloaded circuits." The inspection was held in No vember but the results didn't come out until the latter part of exam week, Dec. 13-18. Roy W. Holsten, assistant dean of students, called a meeting to day for all fraternity-sorority pres idents. The meeting is scheduled for 2 p.m. in the Morehead Lounge of the Morehead Building. Holsten will address the presidents and said he would discuss methods of complying wiht the requests as quickly as possible. He pointed out that under state law 90 days is allowed for com pliance with building regulations after a structure has been con demned. However, if the work is not complete at hte end of that time, an extension may be applied for, Holsten added. The 90-day period began yester day. The findings of the check in each case were handed to the house residents along with a diagram showing how the defects might best be remedied. Citing the general statutes cov ering fire precautions, the notices pointed out that a second means of exit for all rooms above the first floors would have to be pro vided so that should one stairway be closed by a fire or other emer gencies, all occupants of rooms above the first floor would have another means of escape without having to pass the one involved. P. L. Burch, local building in spector, said the inspection will be extended to all lodging houses in the town itself. Those not com plying with the statutes will be required to swing into line just as the houses on campus, Burch said.
