Se of of Than ksgivin g Next week this community will celebrate Thanksgiving. Students will celebrate the national holiday by beginning the Weekend exodus a day or so early, hi-tailing it for home and Horn's Thanksgiving dinner on Wednesday. Townspeople will move quietly up the streets, rich with tradition and so many past Thanksgivings, to enter houses of worship for their private giving of thanks. ' We have suggestion to the residents of Chapel Hill and to the students who make their homes within the boundaries of the village. Those of us who are healthy may be first thankful for that. The Chapel Hill-Carrboro Christmas Seal drive will begin Cppropriately during Thanksgiving week. On Monday, stu ents and townspeople will receive letters from the chairman til the seal sales asking for contributions. At the same time, some citizens will receive Health Bonds. No obligation is in curred in the use of these seals, but the moral obligation of continuing research in battle against this greatest killer. kills someone each 13 minutes. It kills more people than all other communicable diseases put together. There were six deaths in this county last year from TB. We who have escaped this blight may truly be thankful,. and may show our thanks in the most positive way. It Is beyond question that expediency can never conflict with honor . . . Cicero. The people are ignorant, and lazy in their ignorance. And they are cowards. Grave ills threaten our world and the people run away, from the ' problem of curing them. They don't know what to do and they do nothing. To excuse their preoccupation in doing nothing, they have de vised a self-deception of "looking for . the silver lining," an old variation of the rainbow with the. mythical pot of gold at the end. To defend their cowardice, they bitterly protest any oppo sition to their faith that every thing will automatically turn out all right in the long run. Some have sold humanity down the river in selfish antici pation of a heavenly berth in a fabulous after-life. Most have be trayed themselves by stubbornly disclaiming their responsibility for the world which they still command but barely Everywhere a great inertia makes the people unyielding to the growth of truth and justice as attainable goals. Living by the clock buying groceries, building houses, drink ing liquor, paying taxes, whor ing, adding life insurance, exist ing by a mechanical schedule of thinking, loving, working, dying unaware that it is a time bomb. Mass escape corrupt poli tics, the greed of man, the war dead, more dead from the crush of the very machines they built, the 100-mile an hour rush toward an eluding joy, loose morals, scandalous injustices, bribes, . thefts, murders, sex de pravities, dope, Communism from self-destruction. The mass delusion people knowing nothing, learning noth ing, thinking nothing, saying nothing, doing nothing with the dim awareness that some thing is wrong. Declarations of truth and pur pose the education of automa tons, the superstitions of a thousand worn-out religions, the embalming of the liberal spirit, sex and politics subordinated to, the unspeakable extremes, Ci cero riots while the world is rent apart. Human relations are a thou sand years behind technology that can wipe out humanity with frightening swiftness by careless handling or accidental triggering. And the people have quit, following the discouraged realists and the disillusioned dreamers to their drugged death. The double.. double-cross. The peorle. drown out hope with their wounded cry.

Nov, 13 Tar Heel paper. For over five games the Caro lina team "km had a losing streak. This team eant hold the passes; or they dont time the running so as to get over the op ponent's line at the same time the ball is hurled to them; or they have . better fmgers; or perhaps they do need a bucket to catch the ball. Evidently a lack of team . work. Everybody is playing for their pwnself, for their own glory. So they think. I suggest that instead of going for such a hard ssport that takes real men with guts to fight, dig and win a game,' they should go for ballet dancing or swimming. These sports . can't do . them harm; but please, leave the real sport, the fighting sport,- as foot- ball is, to real He-men.-So, take notice, girls, of the football sqaad; ' ! !..,,,, Teddy OriV DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS t.
