Sheriff Says
Reports Still
Not Received
Sheriff Sam Latta of Orange
County said today that he has
had no report of tests made by
the Federal Bureau of Investiga
tion or the State Bureau of In-
vestigation in connection with the
murder of Miss Rachel Crook, 71,
of Chapel Hill
Sheriff Latta had no comment
on possible reasons for the delay
in the reports.
Meanwhile, Hobart Lee, 33, of
Burlington; is still being held in
the Durham County jail without
bond on a charge of murder.
The sheriff said that if no hear
ing is requested by counsel for
the defendant, no further action
will be taken until the Orange
County Grand Jury convenes on
December 10.
Some of the clues that have
been submitted for investigation
to the S. B. I. and the F. B. I
include scrapings removed from
underneath Miss Crook's finger
nails and some reddish brown
hair found on her smock, after
her severely beaten body was
found on a deserted road about
seven miles from here.
Although a veil of secrecy has
been thrown around the clues in
the possession of the police, it
is known that they have received
reports that screams were heard
issuing from a pickup truck which
was seen beyond Carrboro the
night of the killing.
Lee is reportedly the owner of
such a truck.

The Athletic Association han-

the Association is not considered
an educational service.
"It has long been accepted
here," said Bowers yesterday,

C. O. Pearson, Negro attorney

day that he did not know when
the suit will be brought, but he
indicated that-action will be in-

Delegates
Meet Here
Representatives of the South

Morehead Faculty Lounge at 10:30
a.m. to discuss policy, a new con
stitution, and rules and regula
tions of the Conference,
President Gordon Gray, Chan
cellor R. B. House, Professors A.
W. Hobbs, O. K. Cornwell, and
Coach Bob Fetzer will attend.
Gray arrived in Chapel Hill last
night after flying from Washing

. Walker returned the tickets to
House Monday with a note stating
the action was a refusal on his
part to accept nothing less than
a student passbook.
"I would not have gone to any
of the games if he had given me .
the passbook," said Walker. "More
important to me is the principle
involved."

Bowers further stated, "To
make such a decision without con-
suiting Student Government is
Government as an organization
whose operation, will be limited
to discpilinary problems."
"We feel . that students can be
of great value in the operation of
the University," he continued,
"and feel that implementation of
this belief is one of the best
reasons for the existence of Stu-
dent Government."
"The recent incident was un-
fortunate and the unwise hand-
ling of the situation is far out of
phase with the ideals and tra-
t dition of f air play which have
been so. long, cherished in this
University." .. '
Robert "Coach Bob" Fetzer, the
athletie director of the University,
said that the Athletic Association
is merely complying with the
State law. with respect to segrega
tion, and with the policy of the
administration. .
House has indicated that the
treatment of Negroes in the Uni-
versity wiH always be done "in
good will, in good faith, and on
an extremely conservative basis."
W. D. Carmichael, Jr., Comp
troller, has gone on record as say
ing that the administration will
have the full support of the Board
of Trustees of the University.
Walker said, "I feel that Lam'
a part of the student body and
am entitled to cheer and express
school spirit as part of the stu
dent body." '
"I feel the administration," he
continued, "is acting in bad faith
with the student body, for none
of it which I have come into con
tact with has expressed the f eel
inJ of the administration."
The University was ordered to
admit Negroes to the Law School
last spring by the United States
Fourth Circuit -Court of Appeals.
At about the same time the trus
tees voted to admit Negroes in
cases where separate facilities are
not provided by the State, "With-
