Toda Homecoming Game Events Are Revealed By RUTH BARKER One of the highlights of the Wake Forest game on Saturday, November 26, will be the crown ing of the H-omecoming Queen by J. Willis Cantey, president of the Alumni Association. An election by the students will decide who is to be this year's queen. Because of a clause in the new constitution stating that,elec tions must be announced four weeks ahead of time, it was decided unanimously by the students and faculty that the North Carolina game would not give enough time for the proper preparations. Ralph Lewis, the executive sec retary of the Alumni Association will be the master of ceremonies and President Norman Smith will introduce Mr. Cantey at this event which is the last home game of the year. With the aid of Mr. George W. Tomlin, Jr.. the director of Stu dent Activities, the Student Coun cil, the Athletic Association, the Alumni Association, fraternities and sororities will all cooperate to make this one of the year's big events. As yet the committees have not been announced.

The dean of men, feeling that some men may have derived the wrong idea from an editorial of last week, advised the Gamecock that any action which might be construed as hasing will be severe ly dealt with. "It Is perfectly all right," Dean Jackson said, "as far as the Uni versity Is concerned, for a fresh man to cut his hair in any way that he pleases, but It seems to me that a gang has no business go ing to a dormitory or elegwhere and, as a result of that visit, see lng that a freahman's hair is cut."
