Douglas MacArthur's views by saying the deposed commander's mili tary policies in Asia would "jeopardize world peace,", may have his Thursday night Memorial Hall address broadcast by a national radio network. Carolina Forum Chairman Bab Evans also said Life maga zine and a state television stations- may be here to cover the event. In addition, he said, the Voice of America will transcribe the speech for possible use in over seas broadcasts. Bradley leveled his attack at five-star General Mac Arthur in a speech yesterday before the Na tional Association of Radio and Television Broadcasters in Chi cago. As chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, Bradley solidly backed President Truman's stand against MacArthur's ideas and defended the Administration's policy of limiting the war in Korea. Yesterday, Evans said the De fense Department is trying to ar range with either NBC, CBS, MBS or ABC to carry the speech on a coast-to-coast hookup. No word has been received from Bradley's office yet as to which network will be used, Evans stated. . "Although there still remains a possibility of cancellation, Life magazine has consented to do a story on General Bradley's visit to the Carolina campus," Evans said. "I feel the outlook is ex tremely good that one of the magazine's representatives will be on campus Thursday." In addition, the Greensboro tel evision station," WFMY-TV, has been contacted, and the station has expressed interest in televis ing the speech. Arrangements for the telecast are still in the tenta tive stage, Jiovever, Evans said. Local radio stations may also pick up the event for broadcast ing in this area. Bradley's appearance is the climax of one of the most suc cessful Forum years in its his tory, Evans commented. In addi tion to Bradley, the year's pres entations have, included such speakers -as Lt. Gen. Mark Clark, radio commentator Edward R. Murrow and U. S. Sen. Leverett Salstonstall of Massachusetts. All of the previous presenta tions of the Forum have been well attended by students and Chairman Evans yesterday ex pressed his hope that there would be a good turnout for tomorrow night's program.

Half Of His Professor's Institute Of Government Head Began School With Own Funds By Joan Charles Twenty-three years ago Albert Coates, professor of law at the University, began to analyze his job of teaching .criminal law to young lawyers and the results of his analysis set the foundation for our present Institute of Gov ernment. In examining his work Coates found that only four cases in every 1000 get to the Supreme Court. Also he was teaching his law course from a case-book of Supreme Court decisions. He called his class together and said words to this effect: "I have been trying to teach 100 percent of a course out of ieofo No Negroes Admitted Yet Says Attorney Given As Reason For Continuation Of Case In Court Special to The' Daily Tar Heel RALEIGH, April 17 The chief counsel for a Negro seek ing admission to the Univer sity of North Carolina Medical School said today that despite recent Trustee action "we cer tainly will continue the suit . . because we haven't seen any Negroes admitted yet." The Negro filing suit, James Edward Thomas of Wilmington, is represented by Herman Tay lor, Raleigh lawyer. When asked why they would . continue the suit in view of the new UNC pol icy to admit Negroes to graduate and professional schools when separate facilities do not exist, Taylor told The Daily Tar Heel: "We have a case in court and it still has to be decided. Just because, something comes out in the paper doesn't alter anything. (See NEGROES page 2) Ugly Contest Will Benefit Cancer Fund Proceeds from this year's Ug liest Man on Campus contest will go directly to the Damon Runyon Cancer Fund, according to Theta Chi fraternity's contest chairman Jim Nichols. The second annual UMOC con test opened yesterday with a call for photographs, will run through April 27, when the Ugly Man will be presented to the student body at the. annual University Club Carnival. Nichols said that photos may be mailed or brought to thd Theta Chi house at 214 E. Rosemary St. There is no entry fee and natural ugliness is not a basis for judging. Voting will take place next week, Tuesday through Thurs day, when students will vote by penny ballots- on 10 candidates selected by a Theta Chi commit tee. The male student receiving the highest, number of votes will be named Carolina's Ugliest Man on Campus. And all the pennies will go to the Cancer Fund, Nichols said. Entries may be submitted by anyone who is a male student here at the University. To be considered "ugly," makeup may be used, provided it is not pro fessional. Any size "or t5'pe pho tograph may be entered. The entry deadline is next Tuesday at 9 a.m. Salary four-tenths of one percent of the knowledge. That difference rep resents the law as taught in my classroom and government as practiced in the city halls and county court houses in North Car olina." This discovery gave us the pres ent Institute of Government which presents three main serv ices for the people of North Caro lina. Particularly it serves the University of which it has been a part since 1942. These services are comparative studies of the structure and workings of the government in the cities, counties and State of North Carolina; a legislative service of new laws in Pushes UP Decides Not To. Back Independents Jenrette Traces Several Reasons For Party Defeat By Rolfe Neill The University Party yes terday voted by a heavy ma jority not to endorse any can didates in today's runoff cam pus election. Also, Chairman Dick Jen rette presented an analysis of why he thought the UP "took it on the nose" in last Wednesday's campus-wide balloting. Jenrette, a former editor of The Daily Tar Heel, pointed out, how ever, "that we weren't the only ones who took it on the nose. The SP also suffered. It was a holiday for independents." In giving a breakdown on how the UP fared, Jenrette said the UP has a 13 to 10 majority in the Student Legislature with four members who were elected get ting ... double . ...endorsement- . Of these, he continued, three are "staunch UP supporters," which gives the party a working major ity of 16 to 11. He announced that new officers will be elected at the party's meeting Tuesday, May 1. Further elaborating on the election trends, the party chair man said he hoped to compile in the "next two or three weeks" a report which would analyze UP weaknesses for the past three years. Stating that "we've got to get away from the stigma of UP in , the dorms," Jenrette asserted, "that the future of all parties, es pecially the UP, are hanging in doubt now." "One reason why I think Dick Penegar (UP presidential candi date) lost is because he didn't have enough first-hand lieuten ants," Jenrette declared.

This information is conveyed primarily through various pub lications issued by' the Institute. Among these are daily and peri odic summaries of laws passed while the- state legislature is in session, digests of Supreme Court decisions, and a general informa tion service. As an integral part of the Uni versity, the members of the In stitute staff can teach courses in (See COATES page 2) rEy on fr Penegar Jenrette Dick Penegar, defeated Univer sity Party candidate for president of the student body, yesterday backed Student Party nominee Henry Bowers for the post in the runoff, and occasioned a remind er from UP Chairman Dick Jen rette 'that the UP has taken no stand in the runoff. "The party has voted not to endorse any candidates other than its own in the runoff," Jenrette said, "and the party stands be hind that decision." Meanwhile, Paul.

This privilege includes all reg ularly scheduled Planetarium demonstrations. School children throughout the state have been extended this rate at special after noon shows when they have at tended the Planetarium in groups of considerable sizes, said Jen zano. He continued, "I feel that, it is impractical for the students here at the University to organize groups to see our demonstrations for special rates, we should al low them to attend individually the regular showing at the re duced rate." Jenzano indicated that re sponse from thousands of school children showed that a terrific amount of education and enjoy ment is being derived from these demonstrations. He hoped "this courtesy will encourage more of our own stu dents to take advantage of these benefits." The "End of the World" is now being shown and was recom mended highly by Jenzano. He explained he felt most stu dents hesitated before spending for pure enjoyment, and by low ering the prices to the present rate, the Planetarium, would serve recreational as well as edu cational purposes. The new rate becomes effec tive immediately. - espite Backs Bowers, But Repeats Wo Stand' vidual and not as a representative of the University Party." James' campaign manager, Joe Pete Ward, released this an nouncement in behalf of the in dependent's supporters: "Much has been said that tends to discriminate against the inde pendency of independent candi date Ben James. For the infor mation of those who do not know, the petition requesting him to run for the presidency was circulated before either political party nomi nated their presidential candi dates." Penegar's . statement read in part: "I wish to thank the people who supported and worked in my mittee on the Medical School. The cornerstone will be laid in accordance with. Masonic rites, with North Carolina's Grand Mas ter of Masons, Dr. Wallace E. Caldwell of the History Depart ment, in command.

Navy Gets Star Playmakers Are Home From Five-Stafe Tour By Andy Adams After a highly successful five-state tour of "Romeo and Juliet" 'through the Deep South, the Carolina Playmak ers have circled home to Chap el Hill.

Policy it New President, Paper's Editor Will Be Chosen Three Positions In Senior Class Are Still Open The campus will wind up its spring elections today when it votes in a runoff to elect a president, editor of The Daily Tar Heel, and several other offices including three posi tions in the senior class. All procedures will be the same as those followed in last Wednesday's election. Polls open at 9 a.m. and close at 6 p.m. A valid identification card is all that is needed to vote. Three of the four major can didates are independents. For president of the student body, Ben James (Ind.) will face Henry Bowers (SP). Dick Penegar (UP) was eliminated last week. Don Maynard (Ind.) is opposed by Glenn Harden (Ind.) for the job of editor of The Daily Tar Heel. The SP endorsed Glenn this week. Should Glenn win it would make it a clean sweep for women in Carolina publications the first such occurrence in Univer sity history. Sue Lindsay as new Yackety- iY.aek- editor on the strength; of ;a;jdoublc endorsement and Lynn Miller is editor of the Carolina Quarterly. Bill Bostic (UP) faces party vice - chairman Archie Myatt running independently for pres ident of the senior class.

Three of the runoffs were or dered Monday by the Student Council after reviewing appeals for a revote from a number of candidates. The other runoffs resulted from the failure of either opponent in any one race to poll a majority of the votes cast for the position in the general election last Wed nesday. ) Counters Needed Elections Board Chairman Julian Meson yesterday sent out an urgent plea for balloi couniers in Graham Memorial tonight to help tally up elec tion results.
