'So Many Cute Girls'
One More
"'We certainly are glad so many
cute girls have come out for rush
ing." That was the statement of one
sorority, as the first hectic round
of rushing wound up.
By now the rushees have had to
cut down to four the number of
sororities they will visit tomorrow
night. Monday it will be three.
Wednesday and Thursday mark
the end of rushing with grand din
ner parties staged at each of the
houses to tempt, prospective pled
ges. The sororities are all pleased
with the number that have come
out, and think rushing "grand"
fun," besides being the best way
they know of to "meet the new
girls."
"It's the highlight of the year
h Streets Getting
Face Lift Job
Before Game
Three or Chapel Hill's streets
just had their face lifting jobs
completed in time to handle to
day's football traffic.
Sections of Raleigh and Hender
son Streets and Cameron Ave.
have been repaved by Nello Teer
-Construction Co. of Durham.
Six blocks of West Cameron,
.from Columbia Street past Graham
Ave. were completed Thursday.'
Two blocks of Henderson were
-completed Friday afternoon. Work
on the section of "Raleigh Street
in front of the Women's Dorms
was expected to be completed last
night.
The local police department,
who have been having to contend
with traffic jams caused by the
paving work, breathed a sigh of
relief when the work was finished.
Police Capt. W. D. Blake said,
"We're expecting a heavy load of
traffic this weekend. That is if the
weather is nice because Carolina's
game S the only home game in the
Big Four Saturday."
Some students and townspeople
have registered complaints because
the street work was not done dur
ing the Summer while traffic was
comparatively light.
City "Manager Tom Rose cleared
this up yesterday when he stated
that the reason the work wasn't
started before now was that the
town "simply oldn't have the mon
ey " The work is being done
through the Powell Bill passed by
the state legislature last year.
This bill returns part of the
state tax collected from gasoline
to towns. The percentage returned
is determined by the town popula
tion and street mileage.
Tvjn mnre streets are yet to be
repaved. They are Lindsey and
McDade. ' Hill and Jones streets

arise from the fact that at cne
Voters Decide
On Bond Issue
At Polls Today
Today North Carolina goes to
the polls to say "yes" or "no" to
the bond issue which would im
prove state schools and mental in
stitutions. If passed, the issue will provide
$50,000,000 for the construction of
urgently needed school facilities,
and $22,000,000 for inrp'rovements
at North Carolina's mental hospi
tals. Dr. Frank Graham, former presi
dent of the University will fly here
from New York to cast his vote
for the bond issue.
Fach county . throughout the
state will get $100,000 of the school
bond money, with additional funds

need under a formula to be pre

of tire parties there are too many
girls, maybe 50 or 60, and then
at the next oniy eight or ten girls.
"That makes it hard for us to get
to know each other," another soror
ity said.
But most sorority girls think you
can get to know a new girl pretty
well during rushing, and are pleas
ed with the way things are going.
Rushing is tiring, no question
about it, with the girls going to
as many as four parties in one
night, But all the girls, actives
and rushees alike, seem to be hav
ing a fabulous time.
By next Friday evening when
the bids are distributed by the
Dean of Women's office, the girls
can look back on two weeks of
joviality. They may be tired, but
they'll ail say, "Wasn't it fun!"
Little Change
Is Shown By
Auto Figures
Registration figures for student
automobiles for this year are 832
as compared to 857 for last year.
This is a reduction of 25 from
last years registration.
There is no way of determining
whether this decrease is the result
of a letter sent to the parents of
all students by Dean of Students
Fred Weaver this past summer.
In his letter Dean Weaver asked
parents to discourage students
from keeping automobiles on the
campus this year.
Dean Weaver wrote the letter as
a result of recommendations made
by the Board of Trustees of the
University.

Carolina's Tar Heels are general
ly considered to be the favorites
as they take the field this after
noon in Kenan Stadium in then-
second game of the season against
the Generals from Washington and
Lee. Starting time is scheduled for
2 o'clock.
A crowd of 20,000 is expected to
be on hand as the Tar Heels go
after their third straight win. Last
week they opened the season with
a 29-7 win over N. C. State and
thev ended up last season with a
victory over Miami.

encounter. The lineup in the for
ward wall will be exactly the same
with the changes occurring in the
backfield.
The biggest switch will be at the
quarterback position where Lou
Britt will start in place of Marshall
Newman ,the sophomore who was
Britt performed very well on both
offense and defense against State,
and for that reason he has been
elevated to the first string com
bination. The distinction between Newman
and Britt is easy to make New
man is a good passer but weak on
ball handling; Britt is a good ball
handler, especially on the pitchout
plays, but is weak on passing.
One other change will be made
in the backfield, that at the right
halfback position. Connie Gravitte,
who also plays in the outfield on
the Carolina baseball team, will
start at that position in place of
Flo Worrell, last week's starter.
Both Gravitte and Worrell are fast,
hard running backs, but Gravitte
will get the nod because he is
stronger on defense.
Another reason for Gravitte's
elevation along with Britt to the
first string backfield is because of
Britt. Since Gravitte is a better
than average passer, his presence
