Yesterday, The Daily Tar Heel galloped to the rescue of
Coach Carl Snavely, currently under attack for coaching a
losing football team. This behavior belongs in the general
category of" Cardinal Sins
Carolina is playing pro football, and pro football coaches
don't last long unless they field winning teams.
The people who are blaming UNC's ace Saturday's Hero
have some fine ideas:

Madame Editor:
I read with great displeasure We - the student body, the
the account cf the Legislature alumni, and various other loud
meeting last night which reveal- mouthed screaming know-it-alls
ence
Snavely does nothing but play favorites."
"Snavely knowg less about football than Hedda Hooper."
Well said, exponents of the Lynch Carl Crew, but we think
the situation can be analyzed a; little more deeply.
-Let's face it. If the current" trend continues, we might as
well continue to field a pro outfit and call it that, pay players
their regular salaries, plus free tuition, free board, free room,
free clothing, a Cadillac convertible, straight A's and a harem.
Then we can schedule the Washington Redskins and the
Chicago Cardinals.
There's just or2 other alternative. Keep Carl Snavely, get
rid of the alumni in football, and return to a college game.t

Seated beside me now is the
bone of much recent conten
tion in the state papers and the
state government. He is Duncan
Brackin, recently an attendant
tt the Butner Mental Hospital
who Was fired without cause
...after making charges of brutal
treatment of patients by staff
members. I want you to hear
what he has to say.
'"The article whiih appeared
in the;, Raleigh paper yesterday
was a fine piece cf reporting
but the facts as given by the
attendant who administered the
beating were almost wholly un
true. He claims that he was
attacked by the patient, but the
truth is that the patient was
jgrabbed from behind and
.dragged several feet before
being thrown to the floor and
beaten on the left side of the
head.
A male nurse assisted in the
beating fey striking the patient
. on the left hip. I then grabbed
the right arm of the supervisor
of attendants who was beating
' the patient on the head, pleading
with - him and asking him to
stop the beating. .
According to the attendants
testimony he was attacked by
the patient. I was standing
within six feet of the entire
conflict, and my testimony was
verified, in the words of the
chaplain, to the hilt, by a
natient who has been . cured to
Hhe extent that he is afforded
ground . privileges- This same
patient volunteered the informa
tion that this same attendant
had beaten several of the pa
tients before.
Dr. Murdoch's statement that,
"My inquiry shows that the
whole thing has been exagge
rated,' indicates the super
ficiality of the inquiry. I was
not present and the testimony
of the chaplain and the wrtness
was apparently disregarded.
I am willing to testify to the
absolute truth of these state
ments before any board or court
at any time.

In this case we have an ex
cellent example of the abuses
which can arise when a system
such as this is organized with
out adequate safeguards. Here is
a place where one man , has
another- in his control and com
pletely helpless. Here there is
i no appeal, br recourse to higher
; ! authority j i except when the
pgstem breaks down and an
Siceaefitly - intention ed man
K2owed to see what is happen-
S2e avaigatien was con-
known; so a hearing was con
ducted with the principal wit
ness absent in order to carry
out an expeditious white-washing
of those concerned. .
In a case such as this a com
plete investigation of this
"showplace" of our institutional
system should be conducted by
a responsible outside authority
who does not have to cover up
a scandal to protect himself.
ed the pigeon-holing of the Re
districting Bill introduced last
week by Bob Pace. Furthermore,
the term "ridiculous" used by
.the UP members of the Legisla
ture as a description of the bill
should rather be applied to the
attitude of the UP toward the
important matter of representa
tion. The UP has no other motive
for killing this bill than that of
personal gain. The will of the
students is not given-a chance
to assert itself. It is a well
known fact that the University
Party depends solely upon fra
ternity and sorority students, for
its life. To split the town appears
to it sudden death and the loss
of the power it has held on the
campus since the ratification of
the Constitution.
To many other students, how
ever, this split would give the
Town Student his rightful place
in Student Government Approx
imately 1400 students," male and
female, are being deprived of the
rights they acquired upon ma
triculation. . G. Robin Gilmore, Pres.

seem to have lost sight of the
fact that we jlay Notre Dame
today. I do not include the play
ers and the coaches in the above
list; I feel certain that they are
trying to prepare for the hard
intersectional game, but the rest
of us are making it very diffi
cult for them.
Dissention has a terribly de
moralizing effect, and today the
players and the coaches need to
be free from all unnecessary ex
ternal pressure. Probably no one
but the players themselves know
how much it means to have the
people they represent behind
them, cheering for them.
Today, let's forget our own
ideas of what we think is right
or wrong about the team. Let's
remember that we want to beat
Notre" Dame. And remember to
let the boys you go to class with
five days a week, the boys who
seem so far away on Saturday,
know that you want them to
onoiogu
Just a reminder: Next Satur
day we journey over to Tobacco
Town to engage in a football,
game with a school called Duke.
Spirit will be high, a party will
be had, and general hell will un
doubtably be raised, whether we
win lose, or draw.
But there is one . thing which
we ought to keep in mind, And
that is this recurring deal about
vandalism. I know you are sick
and tired of hearing us yell and
carry on about vandalism, but
last year our shouting vorked
out pretty well. There was only
one incident, and it carried no
retaliation.
