College Draft Increase Is Expected
(Special to The Tar Heel)
WASHINGTON The govern-,
ment is planning to draft 300,000
men by next July 1, and will
probably call low-ranking col
lege students at midterm if they
already have been deferred. Col.
Richard H. Eanes of the Selective
Service, told a House appropria
tions subcommittee this week.
Eanes, who was representing
Selective Service Director Lewis
B. Hershey, stated however that
the 300,000 was a '.'guesswork
figure."
The Selective Service, he said,
has been aslied to supply more
than 300,000 men if necessary,
and it" has been estimated that
the Army alone may need as
many as 430,000 men this year to
fill discharge vacanies.
Deputy Draft Director Brig.
Gen. Lewis H. Renfrow has
warned that students failing to
get a passing mark on the recent
draft deferment tests or students
who slip below the required top
part of their class may be called
by their draft boards at midterm
if their induction had been post
poned once before.
The recent blanket deferment
for college students ended last
Tuesday, August 21, and. local
draft boards now may use the
test results as a basis for defer
ments. Colleges must provide
local boards with academic rat
ings of the draft eligible students.
The new draft law entitles col
lege students to only one manda
tory postponement to the end of
the academic year. Previously,
they could get such deferments
repeatedly and stay in college
until graduation unless draft
boards called them during vacations.

of them removed their masks
during the course of the meeting.
Bill Hendricks, grand dragon
of the Florida Klan and a candi
date for the governship of Flori
da, was applauded Vhen he said,
"People of the south have died
and fought for segregation we'll
keep on fighting."
"The University of North Car
olina is a hotbed of communism,"
Hendricks declared. And "from
now on let's keep those politic
ians who think more of Negroes
out of office." I
Hendricks several time3 in his
speech referred to the citizens
of South Carolina but meant the
citizens of North Carolina, these
incidents brought laughter from
the otherwise passive but curiou;
onlookers.
"There will be many more
meetings like this in North Caro
lina in coming months," Hamil
ton declared. The Klan is hoping
to organize several other Klans
in North Carolina in addition to
the present Klan in Columbus
County.
University officials contacted
after the meeting had no com
ment to make on the remarks of
the Klan concerning the Univer
sity. Chapel Hill The local Jaycee's
in their regular meeting last
Thursday night passed a resolu
tion instructing their delegate to
the State Jaycee convention this
weekend to ask for strengthening
of the state law concerning the
Ku Klux Klan.

tions for rooms to enable the Uni
versity to furnish all of the some
150 students now on the waiting
list for a room with dormitory
accomodations. Thus for the first
time since the last war it would
appear that the school will be
able to provide dormitory rooms
for all students who desirehem.
Also for the first time since
the war, the capacity of some
rooms has been reduced from
three men to only two men, de
creasing the total dorm capacity
from 3,000 to 2,500.
The new men's dormitory, now
under construction next to the
Monogram Club on the Country
Club Road, is expected to be ready
for occupancy by the Spring
Quarter. It will furnish housing
for about 400 students, Wads

and memorable performance be
ing that of the title role in Men
delssohn's "Elijah" with the
