No Big Changes Seen
In Selective Service
Col. F. C. Shep3rd, advisor to
UNC veterans, announced yester
day there have been no major
changes in Selective Service regu
lations for students eligible for
service in the armed forces.
1 According to the bulletin of
regulations issued Colonel Shep
ard,' these are the clasifications as
they stand now:
Class I-D, for students in the
KROTC and AFROTC who meet
the requirements for deferment.
They are considered "persons in
military" and not "students" in
the normal sense of the word;
Class I-S, for persons who have
never been deferred as students
in Class I-S;
Class II-S, for . students who
have completed more than one
year of residence work in an in
stitution of higher learning (2 se
mesters) and who meet the mini
mum requirements set up by the
Selective Service System.
The summer session, according
to the bulletin, does not count as
a portion of the four years to
which a student is entitled to de
ferment under regulatons. How
ever, the bulletin states, if a stu
dent is entitled to deferment for
the next school year, his defer
ment is valid through the summer
vacaton.
A student whose school year
ends in June said the bulletin,
should be sure to request defer
ment for the next year, and should
report to Colonel Shepard's of
fice to fill out the proper form, to
be sent to his local draft board.
This should be done before the
student leaves for summer vaca
tion, according to the Bulletin.
Colonel Shepard said the only
change in Selection Service law
pertains to graduate students who
must now be in the upper 25 per
cent o their class for the last un
dergraduate year or attain a score
of 80 on the Selective Service
College Qualification Test.
An associate justice of the Un
ited States Supreme Court will
give a public address tonight un
der the sponsorship of the Law
School Association and the Caro
lina Forum.
Justice William O. Douglas will
speak tonight at 8 o'clock in Me-
pointment,. Douglas was chairman
of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
The Supreme Court justice col
laborated with the U. S. Depart
ment of Commerce in bankrupt
cy studies from 1929 to 1932.

trian poet, Hugo von Hofmanns
thal, and has been presented for
many years at the Salzburg Sum
mer Theater Festival.
"Appropriate to the Easter sea
son," Dr. Reichert said, "the time
less story of Everyman tells of the
rich man who learned in his final
hour that power and wealth were
of little avail, but that Christ had
died to redeem just such sinners
as he, if ony they would repent
and believe."

sul in Atlanta, on behalf of his

What They Won't Do . . .
WILMINGTON, April 4 UP) Ed McCurry, University of North
Carolina junior who is a candidate for president of the student
body in tomorrow's election, moved his campaign to Wilmington's
Azalea Festival during the week-end because, he said, "here is
where many of the students are."
McCurry arrived Saturday morning and sought to enter his
red, sign-bedecked automobile in the annual parade.
Officials turned him down because of the "political angle" but
finally an obliging officer let him in the end of the parade for a
part of its route. Meanwhile, many of McCurry's friends and their
girls climbed aboard the automobile and waved to the thousands
of spectators.
Afterwards, McCurry, a native of Shelby, visited several house
parties at Wrightsville Beach as a part of his campaigning. He
was accompanied by Buddy Hamrick, also of Shelby.
