Letter To Graham Calls For Memorial
To Send Carolina Professors Abroad
By Mary Hill Gaston
To commemorate Carolina students who have offered their services and,
in many cases, their lives to gain world peace, 15 recent graduates of the
University have proposed establishment of a War Memorial Fund which will
aid Chapel Hill in strengthening the
foundations for universal peace and "li o i TTI11 CJl
understanding laid by these men. VIlapCl 11111 Oflip

proportionate to the time spent at the
University. ... The students would
benefit through the classroom; and
the general public through the
medium of books and other literature
emanating from the great liberal
center of Chapel Hill."
The letter went on to say: "We
fully realize how little we know of
Russia, Great Britain or China; yet
we are destined to share with these
countries the great responsibility of
world leadership. We cannot send all
the students out to study these and
other nations. But, to the teachers,
on whom much of the responsibility
for preparing future students for an
international and cosmopolitan world
will fall, we can give aid. From them
knowledge and understanding of this'
'new' world must emanate, or the fu
ture is more than doubtful. We would
help them give fuel to the flame of
universalism that ft may not die."
No Action Yet
No action has as yet been taken by
the administration, the Board of
Trustees or the Alumni Association
on the proposed War Memorial. Prob
able channel for funds will be through
- contacts with alumni through the
Alumni Office. Any campaign for
money from the alumni must have
clearance from that office, according j
to the Alumni Secretary, J. Maryonj
Saunders.
Signers Listed
All of the signers, ranging in classes
from '37 to '43, were campus leaders
while they were students here. Ridley i
Whitaker, who initiated the project,
was president of the Carolina Political
Union in 1941-42, as was another
signer, William Joslin, the year be
fore. Others include William M. Coch
rane, who was student director of
Graham Memorial; William T. Mar
tin, Jr., who was vice-president of the
student body in '41-'42; Charles Nice,
'42, chairman of the student advisory
committee; Charles W. Tillett III, '43,
editor of the Yackety Yack; and Or-
ville Campbell, '42, editor of the Tar
Heel. Completing the list of signa
tures are other graduates, all promi
nent m campus activities while at
Carolina: Earle Hobbs, '39; Thomas
Baden, '43; Robert Magill, '38; John
McNeill Smith, Jr., '38; James B. Mc

standing on a chair surrounded by
dancing Naval ROTC students and
university coeds.
Checkered tablecloths and candles
provided a gypsy air for the party for
first semester ROTCs. It was one of
a series given by Martha Mallory and
her YWCA recreation committee of
the University. There are parties for
veterans, for marines, as well as
ROTCs. The sixty girls of the com
mittee try to see that every service I
unit on campus is given a party just
for them every now and then.
We try to create an informal at
mosphere at the parties that will make
everybody enjoy -themselves," says
Martha. "At the party for the vet
erans there was ping pong and bridge
for those who didn't want to dance
and Hallowe'en decorations all
around.
Plans for this fall include a series
of parties for the 600 veterans on
campus, parties for the marines, sup
pers for soldiers from Camp Butner,
and a dancing class at the high school.
When asked how she managed to
give so many parties in spite of a busy
school schedule, Martha smiled in her
enthusiastic way and said "Everybody

a good time and make everybody get
around and meet each other."
Martha Mallory is from Macon,
Georgia. She attended Hollins col
lege and is now a senior at the Uni
versity and is a member of Pi Beta
Phi sorority.
Not only did she help at the USO
and canteen; she would go out and
teach soldiers how to dance and there
were dances at the officers club. It
is not only the experience gained in
Macon that makes Martha such an able
hostess, she is also extraordinarily
able to remember names. As ten
guests stride in, Martha can hear their
names and manage to introduce them
correctly minutes later.
