PAGE 8 THE CAROLINA JOURNAL WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1968 Letters To The Editor Overabundance Of DoggereV ‘ In Hancock’s Doggerel Two Firms Give Money For Seats Dear Mitor; It would be rather useless to attempt a point-by-point rebut tal of the Letters to the Editor, submitted by Mr. Stonestreet and Mr. Reddy in the January 31 issue of the Carolina Journal. Neverthe less I feel that an attempt should be made to clarify points made by Mr. Logan and myself in the Janu ary 10 issue. Both writers have missed the point of our letter, in that they considered it as a broad attack CSM Now In Library The Christian Science Monitor, generally regarded as one of the five outstanding newspapers in the United States, is now available on microfilm in the Atkins Library. At present the library’s micro film holdings are limited to edi tions since January 1, 1960; how ever, back issues will be acquired as funds become available. The library also has an index to the Monitor from 1960 to the present. Current issues of the Monitor are held until receipt of the micro film edition, then discarded. The Monitor, an international newspaper established in 1908, is published in five editions—four in the U. S. and one in London. Hie Atkins Library receives the I'iastem edition published in Bos ton. The Monitor is published daily except Sunday and has a circula tion of approximately 180,000. It is edited by Dewitt John. One writer describes the Monitor as “devoted to dignified re^rting of news of the world. Crime and violence are totally absent from its pages. National and international affairs are pre sented with scholarly restraint.” World Book Lore AKU TO THINK...

This was not our intention. VVe merely criticize the over abundance of dt^erel, which some would seek to label as poetry. This does not mean that we are opposed to poetry appearing in the Barnstormer. It merelymeans that we feel that the Barnstormer is losing sight of the goals it set for itself at birth, an attempt to foster, and bring forward (all) of the arts. Amid the many lines of poetry, one must strain valiantly to find the short story, the book review, the critique of art appearing locally, the drama, record, or movie review. Yes, interviews, and drawings have become standard features. But nowhere is there found, at least recently, a section for crea tive photography, or social satire. Even cartoons could become per tinent on the pages of the Barn stormer. One might simply avoid these goals by saying that many are ac complished on the pages of the Carolina Journal, but I surely do not have to differentiate between the popular movie and record, and that which is a work of art, and a classic. Thus, I feel that the Barnstor mers must not explain their sen sitivities to life, merely through verse. This limits the Barn stormer, to the statue of a col lection of poetry. Thus I hope that the Barnstor mer, which has in the past sym bolized the forward and progres sive elements on this campus, at least those willing to be coun ted, will attempt to return to its original creed of existence. Sincerely, John 0. Lafferty, Jr. Two Charlotte firms have made a gift to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte toward the erection of concrete seats in the amphitheater. The gifts were announcedbyR, Evans of Concrete Supply and Pa J. Verna, Jr. of Concrete H erials. Concrete Supply Company and Concrete Materials, Inc. have given $500 each in lieu of per sonal Christmas gifts to their cus tomers. The customers were sent tetters advising them of the gifts. The amphitheater, now n, construction, is expected to ready in time tor next summe Charlotte Bicentennial outil drama, which is being written writer - in - residence, LeGet Blythe.
