Senators
Talk On
By PEG HUMPHREY
Dialectic debators argued over
finances, maturity, and responsibi
lity in their Tuesday evening dis
cussion of college marriages.
They hill, which stated that
"childless college marriages shall
be encouraged with the partici
pants' being legally permitted to
dissolve the marriage after college
ii there are no children," was de
feated; by a vote of 13 to 3 by
he senators. Senators and guests
voted it down by 19 to 2.
"The life of the' college student
is not secure," boomed Sen. Moss.
He felt we have adopted the eat,
drink and be merry attitude and
care little for responsibility or au
thority. ,
The Senator believed the system
would result in better academics
and that "the dangerous business
down in the woods would be stop
ped to some extent."
The system was condoned by
Sen. Reid, who pointed out the
changes that have already taken
place in the structure of the fam
ily. He cited the number of cases
where women are choosing careers
in preference to marriage. This he
feels, is a "threat to the social or
der." Reid said encouraging college
marriages may be a possible solu
tion to this problem.

Pep Rally Slated
Friday Afternoon
'Follow the Beat Dook float pa
rade tomorrow to the gym for the
Beat Dook pep rally," urged Col
lie Collison, head cheerleader, yes
terday. Collison said therally could not
be held in Memorial Hall as orig
inally planned, due to the Sound
and Fury props which have been
set up there. He also said the
broadcast of the Carolina and Duke
pep rallies by WDNC, which had
been originally planned, could not
be done because of the Duke bas
ketball game tomorrow night.
The University Band is schedul
ed to play in the parade, and Coach
Barclay and the Carolina football
team will probably be on hand for
the rally, said Collison.
"Everybody fall in line behind
the parade to cheer for a winning
team on Saturday," said Collison.
The Queen and a court of six
coeds were chosen Tuesday night
to reign over the parade, sponsored
by Pi Kappa Alpha social fraterni
ty. These girls will ride on the
Mrs. Sedalia Gold, the house
mother of Smith dorm, said, "I
heard the boys when they were
digging the grave, but I didn't
get up and see." Mrs. Gold didn't
know any more than that, but
was understandably curious.
The University Flower Shop
admitted to having sent the 12
red roses last Tuesday, but could
not say, who had ordered them.
The Carolina Flower Shop ad
mitted to having taken the or
der for the single red rose, and
gave a description of the pur
chaser. A male student, who fitted the
description, when questioned, de
nied being part of the plot but
inadvertantly pointed the way to
a second bojr. . The second stu
dent also denied having anything
to do with the conception of the
plot,-though he admitted having
carried it out as a favor to some
one else, and suggested a skect
shooting coed as a lead. Natural
ly, skeet-shooting clouded the is
sue considerably.
The "someone else," despite
the fact that he was distinctive
ly described by the second stu-
dent, cannot be "found to exiM,
and the flower-gathering coed
says she knows no one of this
description.
So it appears that someone
sent some flowers, contrived a
humorous grave and arranged
for the distribution of mourning
bands all for the love of a iady.
Furthermore, explanations of
the meaning of the inscription
on the first card, or the meaning
of the Greek letter. "psi" and the
numbers.' ''7-13".; on the grave ...
marker, were not forthcoming
from any source at all.
