Announcement of plans for a
campus "Kef auver for President"
club was termed "premature and
inaccurate" by Hugh Wells yes-
teraay.
While admitting that he and
others on campus had been dis
cussing Senator Kef auver as a
possible candidate for some time,
Wells stated "We have discussed
this in the light of our belief that
Mr. Truman will not seek re-election
for himself, and since he has
not spoken his mind on the sub
ject yet, I believe it is too early to
make public pronouncements as
to organized support for any other
candidate .on the Democratic
ticket."
Connection of the group, which
included "John Sanders, Jack
Potts, some others on campus,"
and Wells, with Chapel Hill real
tor Lloyd Gardner was denied,
and Gardner's statements on their
behalf regarding the matter were
termed "unauthorized", by Wells,
a third year law student.
"We believe," he said, "that if
Senator Kefauver should become
a candidate, he would be in the
real Democratic tradition as set
out by Franklin Roosevelt and
Woodrow Wilson."
Wells emphasized, "I would
like to point out in particular that
we are not, as was suggested by
Mr. Gardner's remarks, looking
for a candidate with views simi
lar to those of General Eisenhow
er. The General is a Republican
and talks like one when discuss
ing politics."
Students interested in the sub
ject were invited to contact either
Wells, Sanders, or Potts as to pos
sible future actions.

reaTer jyuTies
The cold war has thrust ne,w
responsibilities on the press : to
portray America abroad in the
best possible, light and to demon
strate conclusively to the rest 'of
the world that America has some
thing unique to 'offer a society
of both freedom and plenty.
This view was voiced here last
night by John Scott, an editor of
Time Magazinend former chief
of several foreign news bureaus
of Time, who is now on. a speak
ing tour of colleges and universi
ties throughout the country,
Scott spoke, in Gerrard Hall un
der the auspices of the Carolina
Forum, non-partisan student or
ganization, and the UNC Press
Club.
The new responsibilities of the
American press, Scott said, "fall
particularly on those publications
like the Readers Digest, Time and
Life which - publish foreign edi
tions, on Hollywood with its im
mense foreign audience, and on
our radio, newcasters and pro
gramming directors, both those
working for our networks and
those employed by the Voice of
America in radio free Europe.
"The coordination of these ef
forts to show the world our best
falls at least in part to govern

mental agencies like the Psycho
logical Strategy Board, the secre
tary of which until last week was
your president, Mr. Gordon Gray."
v Scott said "I cannot emphasize
enough the importance of the Psy
chological Strategy Board in
planning and coordinating Amer
ica's cold war. Political warfare,
an activity in which until recently
the United States was completely
inexperienced, is now being
pursued vigorously and intelli
gently by such able servants as
General Walter Bedell Smith of
the Central Intelligence Agency,
and Brigadier General Robert Mc
Clure of the Pentagon.
"It is their duty to harry and
harass the Kremlin and the Com
munist leaders of the satellite na
tions as they have sought for the
past 30 odd years to harass the
western nations through the Com
intern, the Cominform and a host
of front organizations. One of the
most effective instruments to
achieve this end is the press the
written and the spoken word
brought to the peoples of the
ruble area through newspapers,
magazines, radio broadcasts, leaf
lets and plastic balloons."
Scott said a second function in
the cold war effort is the making

his geology final, was acquitted.
Two men and two women were
acquitted on English course
cheating counts on grounds of
lack of evidence. The cases were
handled separately by the Men's
and Women's Council. "I
The Council suspended one man
found guilty of cheating in a
math final while it acquitted
another after evidence showed
that he had no knowledge that
the former had been copying from
his paper.
In its January 3 meeting the
council suspended one student
who had plagiarised on" his Eng
lish theme. In this case plagia
rism and its consequences had
been fully explained by his pro
fessor prior to the violation, the
council pointed out.
In another Honor Code case,
the student was acquitted.
Student Council
Rejecting an "unjust" convic
tion claim the Student Council
upheld a Men's council decision
which ; suspended a student for
copying material from a library
book for an English theme. The
studeni had turned the theme in
as his own work. ' :
An appeal was denied the stu
dent, , a; freshman: because "the
sentence determined ; by the .Men's
Council was not ;un just or un
usual," chairman j Larry Botto
pointed out. "ThejjMen's council
took intOi consideration past
cases ' and established precedent
in setting a sentence in this case.
Monday the council will hear
another appeal case from the

In a precedent breaking move
here yesterday, Pi Kappa Alpha
fraternity was granted permission
to conduct a fund raising drive for
the National Polio Foundation in
the fringe areas of the campus.
Sororities, fraternities and Vic
tory Village will be solicited for
contributions by members of the
fraternity, next Wednesday, night,"
January 14, under authority
granted them by the Campus
Chest.
It will mark the first instance
of a charity drive's being con
ducted on the campus since 1949
when the student legislature
created the Campus Chest, a
Community-Chest-type organiza
tion which combines-all of the
fund raising drives into one cam
paign. Authorization was given for this
particular drive ' because of the
large amount of funds which have
been spent by the polio founda
tion in the Chapel Hill area in the
past year. In addition, several
employees and faculty members
of the University have been af
flicted by the disease in recent
months, and at least one is still
undergoing treatment, costing
over $1,000 a month. . .
Cited as a further consideration
for permitting the drive to be held
on the campus is the fact that the
national March of Dimes has
poured more money into North
Carolina in recent, years than the

Hears Bowers

A program " to overcome 'stu-

student government was asked '
of the Legislature last night by
President Henry Bowers in his
state-of-the-campus message.
The program's goal, now in its

Administration and faculty.
The student president traced
the origin of student government
from its inception when the Honor
System was created. This was
the ' first phase, he said. Bowers
said the second phase was the
legislature 2nd student supervi
sion of publications. '
He urged - the - solons to "try
to evaluate student government
in your own minds (and; when
you see how necessary and bene-:
ficial it is), then try to sell it to
the students."
He expressed the belief that
this ; final goal - could , not be
i reached without a rebirth of stu
