For This Issue: Night News Editor, Andy Taylor Night Sports. Ed Starnes Take The Vital Step The Coed Senate acted properly last week irr reclassify ing the terms "social" and "house" rule. But the Senate did n't take the step that is necessary for the best administration of coed justice. i The move was an expected one As we pointed out last week, the laxity with which the house councils are arranged and the lack of any real feeling of responsibility for justice by the councils made their handling of more serious breaches of coed discipline an injustice, even though that was their constitutional job. The Coed Senate, under its power to make laws pertain ing to coeds only, ruled that failure to sign out when remain ing out all night and returning more than an hour late were "social" rules, and not subject to house council jurisdiction. The "social" rules are considered Campus Code offenses and triable before the Women's Honor Council. But the Senate, the highest coed government organization, failed to make any mention of the fact that the house council organization needs serious study and revampment in order to make the handling of coed justice more just and fair. Such action should come first from the coeds themselves, and the Coed Senate seems to us to be the best place to get the ball rolling. Until such time as the house councils become effective in their job, the administration of justice to coeds, whether it be lor cases involving violations of "house" or 'social" rules, is going to suffer. . , . Good For Lenoir These days when mounting prices begin to hit us right where it hurts, it's encouraging to note that the meals offered at our famous dining hall don't cost more than they did six months ago. . The subject for much discussion, a topic for many campus wits to search for the proper adjective, Lenoir Hall is current ly giving the student his best bet when it comes to decent meals at fair prices. And more some prices have been actual ly lowered. This isn't a walking advertisement, but just a few words about the trend in prices in our dining hall. You can get a bak ed potato, some french fries, or even sweet potatoes for three to five cents less than you could in June. The same is true of peas and carrots or string beans. Roast veal, grilled pork chops, baked ham, and breaded pork chops, all cost five cents less than they used to. The basic prices of meats from chicken to steak have not been raised but remain the same. All these prices and reductions are certainly helpful to stu dents who feel now more than ever the sharp pinch in their pockets We thought reduction of prices was a thing of the past. So, hat's off to Lenoir Hall for its price policy. WMD t on the Carolina FRONT by Chuck Hauser The inside story of student sex activity, - campus government and faculty politics at a big mid western state university is all wrapped up in a new novel by Joseph Gies which is being pub lished by Harper today. A Matter of Morals is the name of the lightly written, smooth reading book. I don't know what school Author Gies attended, but many things in the story could and do happen every day on this campus and at every other school comparable in size and organization. The book "touches on jusf about everything you're familiar with in student life, from bod ling on a sorority front porch to the wrath of a regent of the state university when the daily student newspaper prints a story which reflects on the reputation of a business concern which he controls. . , Among the story are: characters of the Philip Slidell, ah energetic non-fraternity man who wants to be editor of the newspaper, thinks he's in love with a snob-' bish sorority girl and an over sexed Communist at the same time, and writes the wrong kind of editorial to suit the faculty controlled Publications Board. Victor Townsend, a popular and liberal professor who wants to be chairman of the History Department, has a drawn - out affair with the department sec- retary behind his wife's back, and makes the wrong decision to suit the influence-wielding Dean of Students who could help him get the history chair. Along with those two heroes of our story are a string of characters whose prototypes are to be seen all around you here at Carolina. A Matter of Morals is not the best writing I've run across re cently, but it's enjoyable, ( easy reading and holds your atten tion. If you're, not careful you'll find that you've finished the thing in two or three hours without ever putting it down. But then, I like a book like that. The theme of the story is principle versus expediency conscience versus opportunism. How Slidell and Townsend fac ed those forks in the road and made their decisions is the basis for atale of the perpetual prob lem facing members of the hu man race. Joseph Gies has spun a good story with a college angle, and Doctor Hauser recommends it for relaxation purposes. A lot of people at the Student Party meeting in Graham Me morial Monday night were sur prised at the standing ovation presidential nominee Bill Prince got when he finished delivering his acceptance speech. They shouldn't have been. While Prince was talking, a piece of paper was passed around the room urging the "spontaneous" demonstration. wmmmmmmo mm Tar Heel At Large ' y Robert Rucrk, -35 Scuttling down New York's Fifth Avenue the other day, in a bitter rain, the answer to eventual Russian invasion of this nation suddenly came to me, together with a sharp pain in the right eye. Both the solu tion and the pain were induced by the same stimulus an um brella in the hand of a woman. . Citizens, lear ndt outside ag gression, for the umbrella is our first line of defense. No bayonet, no hand grenade, not even an . atom bomb can beat it as an offensive weapon in the hands of a determined female. An um brella needs no radar, for it un erringly finds the target with no especial effort on the part of its wielder. swingback to the olden days of basic warfare, and is arming herself gradually. The bones and wires which are secreted in her intimate apparel make her im mune to ordinary simple .as sault. She wears so much metal in her costume jewelry that she clanks like a paid-up .member of King Arthur's Round Table. An attempted embrace makes an ardent fellow liable to severe gashes from earrings, brooches and kindred dinguses. She is nwver without her sidearms, the hatpin and the spike-heeled shoe, which is a' dangerous wea : port in itself, especially in i crowded places. It seems to me that she is arming secretly for trouble, as the Russians cook up messes of atom-powered broth under the guise of consumer goods. If you have notice the preval ence of veils on our most chic damsels today, you will notice that the nose-veil resembles an oldtime knight's visor rather too uncomfortably for. masculine mental peace. The tout ensem ble is disquieting visor; lance (umbrella point); shield, or the umbrella itself; dagger (hatpin) armor - plating, or reinforced underwear, and the barbed wire she wears as jewelry. This is more hardware store than girl. It is the perfect weapon, in that it seeks its own objective, protects its pilot, is cheap to produce and repels everything in its path. It is as lethal as a bayonet, and we have t trained shock troops to handle it, since the girls have been schooled for generations in its use. The fearsome thing about um brellas approximates the awe some aspects of a strafing plane. You know the machine is moti vated by manpower, but it as sumes all, the aspects of a brain equipped machine gone berserk: The umbrella similarly supplies the necessary anonymity of suc cessful warfare. I will personal ly guarantee that no man ever pondered whether an umbrella brandishing woman had legs. It is possible that the modern woman contemplates a full Rolling Stones by Don Maynard o.

HOTAL ") J S The Editor's Mailbox ' Those 'Fightin' Words' Editor: Today I received in the mail a most idiotic and poorly n.cmou. -graphed circular that purported to be from the North Caio; Labor Youth League. Fightin' Words Ed.) The strange thins js that it was mailed in Chapel Hill ,is supposed to be for Nrth Carolina students, but gives a New York address and no narr.fs. Aren't they brave? Could the local address be m .Carrbuiu ty any chance? v This organization starting a newspaper in N. C. for our supposedly inert and completely stupid students. Their aim u "the complete changing of our economy from capitalism to socialism and eventually to Communism." Blunt, aren't they? In the pro cess they use the Negro Question to push' their points. Whik this ; is not to be a constructive analysis of the pamphlet, this shows that ! they are using the racial hatred to their advantage only and to i everybody's disadvantage. Divide and Conquer! On the front page is a section devoted to the capitalist sc ht mt behind the Korean conflict. This is based on the emotional appeal to those about to be drafted. : Then there is a full page on the Jim Crow system. I an not discussing this point except to say that this question is used hm ' to promote Communism by these frustrated misfits. All their aches can be cured by other means in a capitalistic system. The fourth page is headed "The Suppression of the Dukt N' Duchess." This page I enjoyed since I didn't know why it v;,s banned. They have some good excerpts from the mag but to use this to spread Communism is going too far. Referring to the banning of the magazine "It must have indeed caused embarrass ment to demonstrate so conclusively their subservience to the t bacco tycoons." I prefer to answer to people who are tycoons and still maintain my personal freedom, rather than be subservient a bunch of flunkie jackasses bred from the Moscow Mule. Next the paper (which is an insult to a real one) attacks the S.D.A. "a liberal anti-communistic organization," for not settlirm the Negro question overnight. It is amusing how both a Com munist and a non-Communist group can both be "liberal," by a Communist's terms. Next, four articles are culled from newspapers which seem tu support the Communist cause. One of these is from The Daily Tar Heel on the Martinsville case. Out of context, anything can be distorted and the publishers of this kindergarten philosopohy are past masters athis. Did they get permission from the writers to reprint the articles? The one from The Daily Tar Heel was h -It unsigned. I'm sure the writer to The Daily Tar Heel was not ad vocating Communism, but you would think so in this poop sheet. Then they have books you can send in for which are written by such outstanding men as Eugene Dennis and Gus Hall. Sueh a group as this gripes the devil in me and to allow them to send such hogwash through the mail is an outrage. This is an abridg ment of rights by a bunch of stupid, assinine, and ignorant idiots. But let us remember that these freaks are dangerous to our freedom and know how to prey on the minds of the unsuspecting. It won't do any good to shoot a hole in their heads as they already have r,ne there. Joe Clark 'A Little Red Echo?7 Karl Marx' intellectual red herrings have jumped out of the' can . again, from present campus indications. I thought the Reds had been Jong overdue since Austria-bound Hans raised his voice in crimson wailings. No sooner did the "Martinsville Seven" hit the news headlines of the Daily Worker, than I said to myself: "Donsie, boy, here Ve go." And sure enough. First, pinkish letters to the editor of this paper on the case, then a special visit to St. Paul's A.M.E Church by one William L. Patterson, a man who has nothing in his mouth except venom for the American way of life. And now Junius Scales' pet project, Fightin' Words, appears on the Carolina scene with all the familiar rantings which filled the pages of The Daily Tar Heel several years ago of Messrs. Scales, Friedstadt and Robertson. One letter-writer to this paper expressed himself in no uncertain terms just what was done wrong in the rape trial of the Martins ville Negroes. And when asked from where he obtained his "half truth" facts, his answer was: "The Civil Rights Congress." That's right, folks, it's on the list. Patterson, executive secretary of the Civil Rights Congress, himself a Negro, appeared before some 100 Chapel Hill and Carr boro Negroes to give his views on "The Negro People and the His toric Fight for Full Citizenship." He was to have spoken on Negro problems, as I understand it, but nowhere in the news report did I read anything- except, for example: "Mr. Truman is a man taken from the sewer" and "there isn't a city in the U.S. th'at isn't in the hands of gangsters." I have to give the man credit. He is the only one thus far who has had the audacity to, appear publicly and deliver his opinions in recent months here at the University. Since Hans left, most of the skullduggery has been underground. And so to Scales. While Hans was here, the periodic comic strip was entitled Tte Communist Bulletin. I received a copy of it, maybe because Hans liked me. He liked mo because I was always ready to listen to his nonsense. The more you learn about your op ponent, the more callable you ute to meet his attack7;. I haven't been "himurod" by a subscription to the 'latent fa ret-, Fightin' Words, but there's no noe.l for it. Without reading the pub ' lication, I can till what it contain-:; half-truths and misrepresenta tions of fact. Read the letter to the editor from Joe Clark in today's Daily Tar Heel r.nd you will be reading what amounts to a con tinuation of this column, or at' least what I would have written on the subject were there more room. v Mr. Clark, I agree, these follow-treavelers, "intellectuals," or what have you, very much resemble a ""bunch of fiunkie jackasses bred from the Moscow Mule." And them's "fighting words." Any takers? . - Editor: Mr. Coutlakis: , Just as a matter of letting the readers know that it is you, rather than I, who practices poor judgement, I would like to answer your charges published in this paper a week ago. You have called me a liar, saying that all the facts in my column about the "Martinsville Seven" are fabrications.' I would like to refer you to the court records of the case, the Martinsville police, the attacked lady, the United States Supreme Court, "The South eastern Report," and Governor Battle. I realize that there is a lamentable racial discrimination in the South but that does not interfere with the fact that these men were convicted and executed of a crime too heinous to discuss in mixed ( company. As one judge noted, the jury would have been guilty f a crime returning a verdict other than guilty. As to the wife of one of the men being at.the scene of the crime at the time of the attack, I again refer you to tlie same sources fur proof. I didn't see how your being in Richmond on the day of the exe cution could possibly prepai-e you to write a truthful report on the case unless you refer to the same sources of information that I did and reiterate my previous statements. It seems to me that I have heard your sentiments voiced by groups hot likened with the American way of life. Are you. Mr. Coutlakis, a little red echo? Jc.ck Seism ACROSS 30.
