On M. C. College Expansion
A decision is expected -this
week on whether $271,000 will be
appropriated from State emer
gency reserve funds for institut
ing doctorate work in education
at North Carolina College in Dur
ham in September, 1952.
A joint UNC-North Carolina
colleg-i committee, named to
study immediate expansion of
graduate werk at the Negro in
stitution wilt appear before the
Council of State of Raleigh to
morrow and request that the ap
propriation be made.
The most recent action on the
controversial issue was when a
UNC subcommittee agreed on
July 16 to help obtain the funds
for N.C.C.
The emergency appropriation,
if approved Friday, would provide
$157,200 for next year when the
graduate training would begin
and $114,000 for the current year
before the Ph.D. program is in
stituted. The University -group also
agreed to support N.C.C. when it
makes a request before the 1953
General Assembly for $1,800,000
for the building program N.C.C.
trustees have said is necessary for
expanding graduate work. The
funds would be used to construct
buildings for study in the field of
education, biolov pd commerce.

Council Charges Draft
Boards Show Prejudice
(Special to The Tar Heel)
WASHINGTON The American
Council on Education complained
this week that some draft boards
are showing prejudice 'against
college students.
Brig. Gen. Louis II. Renfrow,
acting director of Selective Ser
vice, replied that "arbitrary ac
tion by local boards should not be
tolerated."
The complaint was aired on a
radio program, "Youth and the
Draft."
Raymond S. Howes, staff asso
ciate of the council, said this pri
vate organization of educators is
getting many letters complain
ing that local boards "have a
bias against college students."
Howes said some of these
boards classify college students
1-A immediately eligible for the
draft regardless of their scho
lastic standing or their score in
the recent draft aptitude test.
Renfrow said that the number
of boards of that type probably
is small, and that local boards
may know the individual "so well
that what on the face might look
like discriminatory action, in
reality may be justified."
j "Always, the authority of the
defer a registrant must be pre
served," Renfrow said.
Renfrow recommended appeals
to the state board and, if neces
sary, to the state or national di
rector, for reference to the presi
dential appeals board, in such
cases. He said the appeal may be
taken by the registrant, or by
the college itself.
He also urged that colleges
send reports on scholastic stand
ing to draft boards as rapidly as
possible.
"Those reports may mean much
to the men who failed in their
aptitude tests," Renfrow said.
College men have been given
a blanket determent until Aug. 20.
