PAGE FOUR THE DAILY TAR HEEL FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1949 I f Jl I Wk I - - I veTerans Advisor LairKeLare Many Tales Of G I s Success By Wink Locklair He was a nice-looking fellow, about 28 or 29 years old, and he had been a lieutenant in the Army during the war. He was from New Jersey, married and had two children. What he didn't have was a job or a background A E Likely, has it at Down to Earth Prices -7 'ONE YOU MUST SEE' N. Y. Times HELD OVER THIRD WEEK C0!0i6YYXKn!S3LSBi A J ARTHO RANK Presentation SPECIAL DISCOUNT FOR STUDENTS that would enable him to sup port a family. He had come to the University of North Carolina to do something about it. After passing the necessary en trance examinations, one of the administrative officials called the new student into his office and asked what he planned to study. "I think I'll get a Ph.D in Eng lish," he replied. Doctors' degrees are not easy to come by and candidates for them are usually students of ex ceptional background and ability. This ex-lieutenant from New Jersey didn't even complete high school and had done nothing more constructive toward a college di ploma than driving a truck by Columbia University occasionally. Yet he was sincere when he said he was after a Ph.D. That was in 1945. During the next two years he was able to get most of his make-up work and general college requirements out of the way. As he went along he took special examinations which enabled him to pass over some GM Football Contest courses, ny tne tnira year ne was close to Phi Beta Kappa and his faculty advfser praised his remarkable progress. So, this former truck driver, without benefit of a high school education, is enrolled in the sen ior class this fall and he will graduate with the Class of 1950 next June. This is one of the many suc cess stories F. Carlyle Shepard, Veterans Adviser in the-University, likes to tell to illustrate the fine record which veterans of World War II have made and are continuing to make in Chapel Hill. There are 3,320 men and 74 women enrolled here for the fall quarter who served at ?ome time during the . war, and they make up about 45 percent of the total enrollment of 7,519 students. "Many people, including some college officials, were afraid that the veterans were going to lower scholastic standards when the tfAirDrnmunt rtaccisrl tVif fT "Rill in 1944" Shepard said. "But they!abmst 70 percent of the student i i i w-. Ai-ir ii r n iirrt mn t ni i r For games of Saturday, Nor. S. 1949.

'While it is always pleasant and desirable to 'present cases such as the GI from New Jersey, it is obvious that not all veterans who have come to Chapel Hill are 'A' students. And,' as a matter of fact, we have no positive way of telling just how many veterans graduate from the - University, Shepard said. , - I "Some of them hold back on their GI funds for future use, others exhaust their eligibility before completing the require ments for a degree. And, of course, we handle many transfer students, so it is difficult to get an accurate picture of just how the veteran situation stands at any given time. We are, however, quite pleased with the very im portant role the veterans have taken in the life of the Univer sity- during the past six -years, he said.1 . Certainly no man in Chape Hill is more familiar with or bet ter qualified ' to speak on the veterans' accomplishments than g. Carlyle Shepard.
