PAGE , EIGHT Dul Students Forget oveted Victory Bell (Editor's note: The following story was written by Lee Edwards of The Duke Chronicle, we are indebted to him and the paper for the story. Although we are of the opinion that if the students are not interested in the bell, they should returnit where it is ap preciated.) -Covered by bail of wire and twenty-foot boards, the dusty Victory Bell lay in forgotten iso lation in a tool shed near the West gate of Duke Stadium. Once the coveted prize of Duke and North' Carolina .who -have fought since 1949 for the right to display it on their campuses, it lay. in a back corner-of the Duke Campus, ignored except by a few. Some people wondered why the bell was not booming out at the State game, but no one seemed to know why. A Chronicle reporter was told by John Stewart, grounds and maintenance keeper, that he had strict orders from the Adminis tration to let no one see, touch or in any way learn the whereabouts of the bell without official per mission. He confided to' the re porter that many- times he had been tricked by Carolina students in regard to Duke student prop erty, and it was his job to see that the bell was kept in a safe place." After "Visiting the Administra tion and obtaining permission to see the bell, the reporter was led to the West gate. Unlocking the chained gates, Stewart walked to the shed and unlocked the large padlock on the door. Push ing the creaking doors -in, he pointed to a dark corner where the bell lay chained to a iron pipe. He cleared away the debris, and the Columbia -blue of Carolina shone in the sun. "Needs a little air in the tire. Guess I'll get some." The reporter ventured the com ment to the keeper that the bell would probably be painted Duke colors in the near future. "Sup pose so." The 20-year Veteran of grounds keeping then very will ingly pulled the bell on its stand down to the football field where a photographer was waiting to take a picture. He explained that the real reason for the bell being taken from the students was the treatment that it received last fall.

Also, there is a contour map of the 700 millibar presxire surface based on radiosonde observations begun between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. and collected by 1:30 p.m. the day previous.
