Dr. Wilson Dies After Illness Dr. Thomas James Wilson, Jr., who had been connected with the Univer sity faculty for almost half a century and who had served as a professor, Registrar, Dean of Admissions, and Faculty Secretary, died at his home October 25 after several years of poor health. Well known and greatly beloved by thousands of University alumni, Dr. Wilson remained in close contact with students through the Phi Beta Kappa scholarship fraternity, which he served as corresponding secretary treasurer since 1894. As Registrar and Dean of Admin istration, "Dr. Tommie," as he was af fectionately known, attained high rank in his field. He served as presi dent of the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and as presi dent of the North Carolina Associa tion of Registrars. OPINION (Continued from page two) They list some ideas which their candidates are supposed to uphold. They pledged themselves to educate their candidates to these ideas "be fore we enter them in any political race." "This idea has been dropped. One of their candidates in the com ing election hasn't even heard of these ideas much less having been educated. They have pledged themselves to nominate the best-qualified candi dates for office, yet in their platform committee's meeting they have agreed to train student officials for their positions after they have been elected to office. Surely the best qualified candidate won't need such training. Maybe they're providing ' for University Party candidates who happen to be elected. Doug Hunt, Al Lowenstein, Dot Churchill, ( Pete Pully and most of the other members of UCP mean well, but they'd better look around for one of those pseudo-sheep. Their principles are good for Carolina. But Hunt, Lowenstein and com pany are being led to one of those shearings. Playmaker Tryouts Tryouts for the Playmakers' next full length production,, "Liliom," will be held in the Playmakers Theatre Friday, Nov. 9, at 4:00 and 7:30 p.m. Both the campus and Chapel Hill are invited to tryout for parts in "Liliom," the play by Ferenc Molnar on which "Carrousel" was based "Liliom" is a strange mixture of real ism and fantasy and one of the greatest love stories ever written.

LETTERS (Continued from page two) mentioned are just a few of the in justices done to us students. We were willing to accept these as best ,we could, but now the Book Ex change has gone too far; the time has come for some things to be brought out in the open. For the past few days there have been on sale in-the Book Ex. some items which the University bought from the government after the ter mination of the Pre-Flight program here. Since Monday," each day has been "bargain day" there. Many a boy has walked away with a fluor escent lamp in his hand, thinking about the wonderful bargain he took advantage of that day. You see, he was told that the lamp was originally priced at $18, and since it had been used slightly, he was going to get a ten-dollar discount; my, what a bargain! What that boy didn't know was that the lamp only cost the Navy $6.91 when it was new, and that the University bought it for approximately 69c 10 of the original cost; the lamp sold for $1.33 MORE than the Navy paid for it when it was new. A profit of about 1200 was made on that one deal. That's what 1 call "high way robbery," and such, should not be tolerated. Such actions are bad enough in private business, but when a place with university influence takes ad vantage of students in that par ticular university, action should be taken immediately to produce reform no matter what drastic changes have to be made. Blocks of art gum were also bought from the Navy at a cost of two cents per block. The blocks were cut in half, and are now sell ing for five cents each at that same place. I admit that the Book Exchange does help us in some ways such as, the soda fountain and the cash ing of checks without charge, and most of the clerks are very nice but there has to be something there to satisfy the students. Of course, the management doesn't realize that 20 "good" does not overcome 80 "bad." You now have the data before you, and I trust that in some way PICK NOW PLAYING Froa tto Best Seller by COL R0BT.LSC0T1 Starring H MORGAN DANE RAYMOND ALAN ILARK - MASSEY - HALE lANDREA KING - JOHN RIDGELY Stan Lomax Louts Effral Ned Brotvn Leonard Lew'm Chester L.

Fire, Explosion Damage Gym Pool; One Person Injured Fire and explosion damaged the $150,000 Bowman Gray pool and se verely burned one person in an early morning fire yesterday. .The blaze which was discovered at six o'clock by a janitor, was put out by the Chapel Hill fire department before it became serious. The fire started in a storeroom and is believed to be the result of spon taneous combustion of liquid cleaning fluid. . The fire was confined to the connecting passageway between the pool and Woollen Gym. H. Maynor, gym janitor, discovered smoke when he came to work at six and immediately notified the fire de partment. C. B. Huggins, adminis trator of athletics, opened the door of the smokey storeroom to determine the exact nature of the fire. The pent up gases exploded, burning him, scorching the hallway, and shattering the pool's skylight. Mr. Huggins is in Watts Hospital in Durham with face and body burns. The fire was put out in a few min utes. ' Sixty gallons of liquid cleaner and other supplies were destroyed. The exact amount of damage has not been determined. it will inspire action to do away with these preposterous conditions.' I'm not saying whether or not the management of the Book Exchange has a legal right to bring about these things I charge, but I do say that the students could and should rise up and rebel. We have been on the wrong end long enough; we have stuffed pockets with money which many a boy or a Dad had sweated to obtain. I appeal to you to wake up and refuse to submit to the present circumstances any long er. If we don't, and if the Book Ex. keeps going at the rate it is going now, within five years we will almost be buying "penny" pencils on the installment plan.

Stephenson con verted from placement to send Tenn essee ahead 7-6. Gorman got the next kickofF in the end zone and returned to the 16, but on the first play from scrimmage Buster" Stephens, the star of the day for Tennessee, snagged a pass from Gorman on the Carolina 30 and ran the remaining yardage for another Vol tally. Stephenson again kicked good, 14-6. Stephens, attempting to knock down a pass from Clayton, batted the ball in the hands of his teammate, John Manning, about five minutes later to set the stage for the final Volunteer score. Manning ran the ball back to the Carolina 24, and he gained a first down through the line for Tennessee on the 14. In two plays, Stephens carried the ball over to make it 20-6 three minutes from the end of the game. Stephenson's try for point was no good. PROFESSOR (Continued from first page) al party meetings with the new presi dent. "I was impressed by the sincer ity and honesty of purpose of Betan court and the other men," he declared. "There was a democratic spirit per vading the entire group of workers, professional men, artists, writers, prominent citizens." Dr. Gil said that President Betan court has long been influential in spite of the ruthless dictatorship under which Venezuela existed. "He knew that eventually there would have to be a change but he, along with all the other liberals who wanted democracy for Venezuela, hoped to avoid revolu tion if possible. Things got so bad, though, that there was no other way. And in 24 hours Betancourt was put into office. It's a great forward step for Venezuela and for South America. I am very happy for that country be cause it is a wonderful country, rich with great possibilities, and with dem ocracy. I believe we are on the right track." ?j?
