Formal Opening
In Field House
The llidee-lo club, sponsored by
the freshmen Y, will have its
formal opening in the form of a
dance in the Field House Wednes
day night, November 28, from 8
until 10:30. Roy Neal'. orchestra
will furnish the music. Commander
Mullens has announced that all of
his boys may have extra liberty to
attend the dance that night.
This club will serve as a college
age canteen for all University stu
dents who want to have a good
time for a minimum cost and in
the best surroundings. It marks
the beginning of the first project
of its kind in the history of the
University.
The llidee-llo club is to be held
every weekday from 3 to 6 o'clock
in the afternoon, and from 7:30 to
10:30 every night. For the present
time, it will be held in the Field
House until Flinn Hall can be en
larged enough upstairs to ade
quately accommodate the canteen's
visitors.
The second floor of Flinn Hall
will eventually be the site of the
cluh. The partition will be remov
ed, and the room will be remodel
ed for dancing, ping-pong, shuffle
board, cards, and conferences.
Chaperons will consist of stu
dents themslves who will take it
as their individual responsibility
to see that every one else behaves
himself as benfits a Carolina stu
dent. Soft drinks will be sold
each evening.
The committee which has made
this idea a reality is composed of
Veinon Atkins, chairman, Richard
Gallman. Mary Jumper, and S. B.
Norwood. It has the copoeration
of Dean Chase and Dean Childrs.
