Sound is a serious thing to Maes tri Ed Sauter and Bill Finegan, whose exciting band, unlike the average aggregation, numbers 25, including five saxophonists, who double on such unlikely danceband instruments as the flute, piccolo, oboe, English horn, bass clarinet and recorders. (The last-mentioneft is a woodwind instrument of an cient vintage.) toy share drums. Sauter and Finegan have explain ed it this way: "We have included an actual percussion section, aside from the drummer because we feel that percussion sounds are needed to add color and thus broaden the musical spectrum of our arrange ments. In fact whenever we feel that only a toy trumpet or a toy drum or even a kazoo will give the particular sound we want why we'll use a toy trumpet, toy drum or kazoo! The only thing we don't use are artificial sounds, which is why the band sounds the same in person as on records.

SP Heads Discuss The Party By JACKIE GOODMAN "The majority of students on this campus know nothing of stu dent politics. (Through membership in this party you can give the stu dents good government," said Vir ginia Agnew in a panel, discussion held in Student Party meeting last night.

E. B. Jeffress has been in and but of this University since 1903, and iri the meantime he has also been publisher jnd half owner )f the Greens ioro Daily iJews, president f the Greens oro Chamber ) f . Commerce, nd mayor of hat city. From 1931-33 he sat in the State Legislature. In 1903, Jeff ress came t o UNC to major tf r Jeffress in history, but the administration "derailed"1 him, as he put it. When he left the library was still locat ed in the building now known as the Playmakers (Theater, Carr was known as the wildest men's dorm on campus, and there were not more than four or five coeds to brighten up the scene. Now the picture is quite differ ent, but E. B. Jeffress is back, com plete with a cane, a battered grey felt hat that got a smudge on its crown when it blew across the street in Salt Lake City, Utah, and an opinion on almost any subject anyone wishes to discuss. Having given up hope of obtain ing a degree, the bright-eyed old gentleman has simply decided that Chapel Hill is a fine place to loaf and to "keep your mind active." Currently, he's studying problems of highway transportation in North Carolina, with a political science course thrown in for good measure. The professors are pretty good, he thinks, but "There are too many Republicans among em!" One of Jeffress' favorite topics is the fact that the "University is losing leadership in the State." He sems to think that the legislature in Raleigh is going to be in pretty sad shape if the people don't wake up and start nominating their own candidates for ihis body. These bright young men must come from the University, he says. Right now they're not. He blames this, in part, on the fact that students' in terests are now scattered among too many activities. In 1903, ev eryone had to belong to either the Di or the Phi, and the debate a gainst Georgia was more important than the football game against that institution.

Editor Charles Kuralt appoint ed Shores to the position yester day upon Shortt's resignation. The former business manager gave "pressing outside duties" as reason for his resignation. Duties of the business manager include supervising the business and advertising offices of the newspaper, as well as keeping an eye on the circulation and subscription departments.
