New High School Here To Be Ready For Use Next Fall Welcome news to Chapel Hill pa rents of high school children is the promise that the first unit of a new school building is to be erected in time for, the opening of school next fall. Ever since the high school building on the Pittsboro highway burned down in the Summer of 1942, secondary edu cation in Chapel Hill has been serious ly handicapped. In view of this criti cal situation the school board has de cided to provide as much classroom space as can be had under the present restrictions. The new structure, which will 'be erected on West Franklin street on property adjoining the elementary school, will be the west wing of the final and complete building. Its sep arate construction will add somewhat to the cost of the whole building but this is justified by the urgent need. This new building will cost between $70,000 and. $80,000 and will provide fifteen classrooms.

To San Francisco Conference 50 Messages Wired To Selected Institutions Throughout South From Virginia To Oklahoma By Mary Hill Gaston Student representatives from fifty colleges and universities in 13 Southern states will convene here next Sunday, April 15, to consider the problems facing the coming San Francisco conference of the United Nations and to coordinate a plan for study on their respective campuses of Bretton Woods, Dumbarton Oaks and other plans related to world peace organization. Conference members will- elect two delegates to attend the San Francisco meeting as observers and representatives. These dele gates will report to Southern colleges through their campus news papers in order to give Southern students as a whole a sense of participation in the deliberations. Inspired by the Institute of Human Relations coming to a close here tonight after an eight day session, and particularly by J. W. Fulbright, junior senator from Arkansas, one of the Institute speakers, the idea for the coming conference grew out of discus sions on effective student action between Institute guest leaders and University students. Concerning the projected Chapel Hill meeting, Senator Ful bright stated iiMiis concluding Weil lecture Sunday night that only through the full participation of students and young people throughout the nation would the stimulus for continuous solution to the daily small problems involved in the peace, as well as the outstanding issues of San Francisco, Bretton Woods and Dum barton Oaks,. be possible., Hefurther stated that. San Francisco would not in itself win the peace or guarantee America's partici pation in world organization. The conclusion that students must participate directly in the resolution of the problems of peace came out of a luncheon meet ing Saturday when students and University guests grappled with the problem of the place of democracy at the peace table. Spurred by the realization of the necessity for immediate, concrete action by Southern students, the meeting broke up into small groups who spent the afternoon discussing ways of implementing the moral force of Southern students. Representatives from these groups met late Saturday afternoon to formulate definite plans for the conference of Southern colleges now seen to be necessary. It was decided to present a general plan to the Council for Religion in Life at its supper session. The council discussed and specified the plan submitted to it and voted unanimously to endorse and support the conference, the temporary name of which is the Conference of Southern Students on the San Francisco United Nations Meeting. A temporary committee was appointed to draw up a telegram to be sent immediately to 50 selected colleges throughout the South, from Virginia to Oklahoma. Meeting Sunday the committee sent follow-up letters signed by President Frank P. Graham to the pre viously invited colleges and universities. Appointed temporary chairman of the projected conference is Buddy Glenn. Jean Buchanan has been named secretary and Mary Lib Barwick treasurer of the organization. Chairman of the pub licity committee is Bob Morrison, and serving with him will be Olive Ann Burns and Fred Flagler. Heading the program committee is Garland Worsley.

UNC Has Former Equestrian In New Student Body Prexy By Bobbie Wyatt Before Bill McKenzie entered college he spent most of his time riding and hunting, but since he has been at Carolina he has not found time for his sports. Bill used to own a horse which he rode almost constantly. The only accident he ever had of note was being thrown from a neighbor's wild pony which he rode bareback on a dare. At Carolina, McKenzie is on the varsity track team. He- remembers that the most exciting meet was at Annapolis when the Academy had a field-day with 29 competing teams. Although Carolina's men didn't win any events, he says he got the biggest kick out of the experience. At Virginia Episcopal School in Lynchburg he was on the staff of the school paper as well as on the foot ball and track teams. He graduated from Episcopal jn 1941 and came to Carolina that fall. ' He was elected to the Freshman Honor Council. Bill has distinguished himself at Carolina ' as President - of the Interfraternity Council, Chairman of the House Privileges Board, Presi dent of the German Club and May Frolics, and as a member of the Grail.
