Prob ably not. Anyway, it's defense haircuts-the latest fad to strike the co-eds of the Caro lina campus. The idea started when the co eds heard that, on account of metals being needed to con struct implements of war, pro duction of bobby pins, those most necessary aids to fem inine beauty, was to be cut down. This announcement struck terror into the hearts of the girls. What would happen when the time came that there was nothing with which to Dreher Inaugurated As Clariosophic Prexy Holnes Dreher was cff;cia!!y in augurated as president of the Clario sophic literary society at the regula meeting Tuesday night. In his address, Dreher con mended outgoing President Dicl Jefferies on the progress lie niadc during his administration. As to the constitution he intends to use Dreher declared, "Althougt I'm very dissatisfied with the lates constitution, I shall conform to i and if the chair should be overrule< on any of his decisions based or this constitution, he shall gladl comply to the wishes of the neces sary majority. g NecessaryI flavor and ig fun-the d elios ~armint Gum itinues ups Cut Up Curls etal Consumption hold up their tresses? Some thing must be devised. So the co-eds went into a bull session, and the result-defense hair cuts.1 The hair is cut with bangs so that there will be no need for pins on top, and the sides are flowing loose and free-also de void of pins.S The result is a kind of "soup g bowl" variety of a haircut, but i the girls profess to be very satisfied with the results of their own invention, and go merrily on their way, hair blow ing in the breeze, secure in their knowledge that they're doing their bit for defense. an Y Forums Started For New_Semester Gr Students Will Choose vt Six Subjects To Hear Student forums sponsored each Ht semester by the YMCA got under M way Tuesday night with the elec- of tion of officers in each tenement N NOd group, R.

"This is heartening evidence of the steady growth of interest in the preservation of our historical re sources and of the realization that this responsibility cannot be neg lected, cannot be ev--n put aside for a season without irreparable loss." "In the books, newspapers and manuscripts placed in this library the past year, the scholar of the near future or the distant future will find, we may be sure, light on economic and social problems of his day, while students and general readers will find in these records that special stimulus and inspira tion that comes only from the ji brary that is rich in the things of the past, Carolina Students Hear Rev.

The rdse succeeds but the actress ap pears unexpectedly and professes to remember the affair. The arrival of the jealous fiance of the star and a mysterious woman provides further complications for an already muddled situation. The plot winds deviously through a maze of incidents to a surprise ending. Alumni In Service Reply To Call For Letters From Home Association Foresees Difficulty Of Alumni Adjustments After War The recent appeal by the Alumni Association for names of Carolina men in the armed services of their country has brought letters pouring into the association's offices from mothers, fathers, sisters, and friends of these men as well as the men hemselves. Letters tell of men on ships at sea, army forts, camps, and other centers, marine bases the world omt, and at icast one message came from Pearl Harbor. To handle correspondence with service men which is increasing daily, the association's files have been completely renovated. In the general file, the alumnus' name is kept with his home adl dress. If he is in the service, a red signal is attached to his eard. His latest military address is then found by consulting a special "ser vice file". "Occasionally", said Ralph Lewis, secretary of the association, "our attempt to bring the addresses of service men as near up to date as possible gives us information as to troop movements which are to be regardled as military information andl must be guarded as such." "When the general file shows an alumnus to be in the service, but no data is given in the service file, it meanq that his address is un known, or that it would reveal im portant troop movements." The association has received re quests for aidl, and has been of di rect service to the Marine Corps, the Navy Department, the War De partment, the Treasury Department, the Civil Service, the State Em ployment Service, andl the Commit tee on Recruitment of Student Nurses of the Nurses Council on National Defense.
