Just Tell 'em State Patrol ; By Jsannette Chance Saturday proved that highway patrolmen go beyond the call of duty ' in " 'directing1 traffic and watching games on football weekends.' ' - A little gray-haired woman ap proached a patrolman. "Will you help me look for my car? she re quested. "I can't find it.'' Willing to assist, he asked, "Do you remember where you parked it?" "Not exactly," she answered, "but it was in a big place with lots of other cars." Trying again, he asked, "After you parked, did you go in the north or south side of the stadi um?" - v;, Her confused eyes brightened as she said, "The one with all the trees just outside." Well, suppose you just give me "the" Kcehse ' number and Til see what I can do, he told her. On Segregation; IT pec By O. Mac White 1 Boom! vSuch is the keynote of student reaction to the University admin istration's alleged policy of Negro segregation. , Since Henry Bowers, president of the student body, went on record Friday condemning the policy, three Chapel Hill student church groups and one campus student group have passed reso lutions to the same effect. Bunny Davis, vice-president of the student body, has called a -special meeting of the stu dent of legislature for 7:30 o'clock tonight to consider a resolution on Negro segrega tion. According to Davis, all legis- lalors must be present at the session, and if not, in accord ance - with the legislators by laws, will be unseated. In their Sunday night meetings the Baptist Student Union, the Presbyterian Student Group, the Wesley Foundation Methodist Groupand the Episcopal Canterbury-Club devoted most of their meetings " to consideration and adoption of resolutions affirming the organizations' belief in non esgregation. Such resolutions passed , in all but the Canterbury Club. And this group referred it to an exe cutive committee for the purpose of wording such a statement. Late yesterday afternoon the Y.WCA cabinet voted to take a - stand for non-segregation, and entrusted to a special committee the job of wording the resolution. The YMCA held a meeting last night to consider a like resolu tion, but at the time- of this writ ing no action has been taken. Unidentified sources intimate that even more student . groups will take a stand on the issue in the very near future. The Baptist Student Union in its resolution restated the princi ples of the Southern Baptist Con vention in opposition to racial Whafs Lost, Will Find It . After fumbling in her pocket book,' she wailed, "I cant seem to find it." Suddenly she ' added, "But it's a '50 Ford, a black one." Don't ask how he did it, but 30 minutes later the patrolman showed the little gray-haired woman a 50 black Ford in a big place with lots of other cars near, a stadium gate with trees grow ing just outside. The moral: Take your problem to the Highway Patrol. Sgtr R. S. Harris, a veteran of 19 seasons, handles the problem of football traffic. He explained that 90 patrolmen come in from surrounding areas to direct traf fic and patrol the highways lead ing into Chapel Hill. Commenting on the increasing co-operation the patrol 4s receiv ing from fans, Sgt. Harris -added a word of thanks to University officials for providing additional parking space SSIOO prejudice, and continued, "In view of the above principles and in light of our previous stand on racial segregation, we reaffirm our belief in the Christian doc trine of the dignity of the indi vidual and in the equality of rights and privileges of all our fellow students. The recent ruling segregating some members of our student body is in violation of these prin ciples, and we pledge ourselves to support every effort on the part of the Administration . to bring University policies in line with these historic and inviolable foundations of our Christian de mocracy." The - Presbyterian group in its resolution reaffirmed its belief "that men as men have certain inalienable rights with which they are endowed by their Cre ator; that all men, being created by one God, are entitled to equal opportunities for enjoyment, re demption, and self -fulfillment "In accordance with our belief we are soely distressed over the action of the administration of the University of North Carolina in restricting the opportunities of the Negro students." - ettach Lists Visiting Laws "The Coed Visiting Agreement, which was passed by the Coed Senate last October, will contin ue in effect this year,- said Mrs. Betty Denny of Dean of Women's Office.
