Hillel Hy-Lites
By STANLEY B. RICHARD

On Sunday evening, December
18th, at Tallahassee, two Univer-
sity of Florida students could be
heard muttering, "You can't ar
que with a woman!" That same
afternoon, Selma Schloss of West
Palm Beach and Mitzi Joy Solo
mon of Miami, representing the
Hillel at the Florida State College
for Women, debated with and de-
feated the University of Florida
Hillel debating tie m of Sidney
Aronovitz of Key West and Kurt
Teutsch, university refugee stu
dent. This gives the Tally Hillel
girls the right to represent Flori-
la in the next round of the Ma
tional Hillel Debating Tournament.
The girls had the negative side of
the question, Resolved, that OPP
portunity for free speech should
be denied those who advocate ra-
cial or religious discrimination in
the United States.

Hillelite Norris Haimowitz of
Miami was the sole recipient at
the University of Florida of a bid
to membership in Phi Beta Kappa
for the first semester of the pres
ent school year. Morris earned
this honor by compiling the excel
lent scholastic average of 1888
points out of a possible 400 in
earning the Bachelor of Arts de-
gree. He is graduating at mid-year
after having completed the usual
four-year course in two and a half
years.

RECISTRANTS MAY
ENLIST in NAVY
Lieutenant in Charge of
Recruiting Accepting
6=Year EnrOllments

Men who have registered for Sell
ective Service are not barred from
enlistment in the Navy Lieutenant
w. F. Hinckley, Officer in Charge
of the Navy Recruiting Service for
Connecticut, said today.
Officials of the Navy Recruiting
Service here were advised today by
the Chief of the Bureau of Naviga-
ton, that when applicants who are
eligible for Selective Service present
themselves for enlistment in the
Navy, and are qualified for enlist
ment, the Local Board should be in
formed of their names.
Lieutenant Hinckley stated that
he was authorized to accept for
enlistments for a period of six years,
and reenlistments for four years,
any applicant who has already been
fully qualified and is called by a
Local Board, Selective Service for
induction into the armed services.
All an applicant over 81 years of
age needs to do is to produce his
registration card so that the Re-
cruiting Service may make note of
the Precinct Number and Place
where the registrant registered. If
the applicant fulfills all the re-
quirements for enlistment in the
Navy and is duly enlisted, the Sell
ective Service authorities will be
notified as to the final action on
the application.
Cooperating with the Connecticut
State Department. the Navy Re-
cruiting Service has forwarded to
the Secretary of the State the names
and addresses of 283 men who have
enlisted in the Navy from Connec-
ticut since June First 1910.
Lieutenant Hinckley said that
applicants for enlistment are flock
ing into recruiting stations at the
rate Of twenty per day. The majority
of these applicants, however. are
under twenty-one years of age and
therefore exempt from the draft.
