Not Effective
If Budget Men
Increase Funds
Student- Leader
Speaks 'Against
Jump In Charge
RALEIGH, Feb. 19 (AP)
The University of North Cai-o-lina
Board of Trustees today
approved increased tuition
cnarges for students in the
Division of Health Affairs.
If the Legislature should in
crease appropriations. to the divi
sion substantially beyond those
proposed by the Advisory Budget
Commission the increased charges
will not become effective, the
Trustees were told.
John Sanders, president of the
studeitt ' body of . the University
at Chapel Ilill, spoke in opposi
tion to the tuition increases. "
The increased tuition charges
were proposed by the Advisory
Budget Commission. They would
increase from $389.50 to $600
charges for tuition and fees for
medical students, from $383.55 to
S600 in the Dental School, $300
to $500 for public health stu
dents, and from $234 to $309 for
students of pharmacy.
Members of the Board were
told they saw little hope of ob
taining the funds from the Legis
lature sufficient to make the in
creases unnecessary.
The Board also approved in
creased charges for board, room
and laundry at the Woman's Col- J
lege in Greensboro. i
Charges will be increased as
follows: board from $28 to $31 a
month, room from $42 to $60 a
year and laundry from $27 to $30
a year.

Flag Finally Furled
Old Glory
From Post
By Andy Taylor
Old Glory finally came down,
but not without a fight.
Dirty, tattered and torn, the
stubborn set of Stars and
Stripes that has flown for some
four weeks over the Chapel
Hill Post Office was brought
to earth yesterday afternoon.
The flag was hoisted as usual
at fi:30 in the morning about
a month ago no one can re
call the exact date. But when
the time came that evening to
pull it down. Old Glory turned
the tallies on its keepers.
The rope had slipped the
iyilky!at the top of the GO-foot
pole and the flag wouldn't
budge. Nor would it respond to
any amount of coaxing.

mer Secretary of the Army Gor
don Gray asserted today he hoped
that "we as a people can avoid
the conclusion that the only solu
tion of our international problems
is a military solution."
Gray warned, however, that
"the importance - of military
strength cannot be discounted."
Gray. now president of the Con
solidated 'University of North
Carolina, made the statements in
a talk to the Raleigh Rotary Club.
Gray discussed certain phases
of the report he made last fall to
president Truman on foreign
economic policy. Gray served for
eight months as special assistant
to the President after resigning
as Secretary of the Army.
The report, Gray declared, "is
based on a recognition that a sus
tained security effort will be
necessary over a period of years.
American policies in the econom
ic, political, v military and in
formational fields must all play
an essential role if any just and
lasting peace is to be established."

Newman Gives Lecture
Thursday In Hill Hall
The second in the University's
series of three Lectuures in the
Humanities for 1950-51 will be
presented by Prof. William S.
Newman of the music faculty on
Thuursday at 8:30 p.m.. in Hill
Hall.
Dr. Newman will speak on "The
Climax of Music," illustrating his
talk with piano music, slides, and
phonograph recordings.
"The Climax of Music" con
cerns the question of where the
peak of interest occurs in music
of various eras, forms, styles,
and composers. Though seldom
touched upon, the question is re
garded as a basic one in the
understanding not only of mus
ical form but of much other form
in art. Especially fn the integrated
works of the 19th century does
the idea of the one climax become
important in creative effort.
