Once Upon A Time I MET A MAN ONCE WHO SAID: I missed out on my college days You see, I didn't enter into it quite all the way. I never really got acquainted with a Professor. Or even a textbook. Not seriously. I never learned ?he toll of digging fosils on a mountain side. Or working till dark over a tfst-tube. Or getting on the trail of something, fn the library and searching it down feverishly for hours. I told mvself that people who did that sort of thing are queer And I said that professors were dull and I complained about the classes. I could learn more out of school, I said. I slid through some way without even letting my mmd grow cur ious. And,,it's funny, but do you know I feel kind of regret ful now when I talk to a scholar. Or go to a library. Or wander through a museum. I missed out on all of that. AJid 1 find myself wishing I could go back to college and live those days over again. I MET A MAN ONCE WHO SAID: I missed out on my college days. You see, I didn't enter into it quite all the way. Working my through school took all my time, or I told myself it did. The f ellows my way used to go bumming around at night and sometimes they'd ask me to go along, but I had to study. It seemed to me a lot of fool ishness, the way they used to hang around the college drug store, or loiter on the library steps, or go to snake dances or rallies. I even missed the football games. Froth, I called it. Wasted time; I was in school to study. And, it's funny, but you know I turned away now every time I see a group of college men gathered in a drug store or on a corner , of the campus. And every time I see two old college chums slap each other on the back and say, "Remember the time that we ..." I gulp a little because I missed out on all that, and I find myself wishing I could go back to college and live those days over again. I, MET A MAN ONCE WHO SAID: I missed out on my college days. You see, I didn't enter into it quite all the way. I was afraid, I guess. I wanted to try for a part in the school play once, but I didn't; I intended to. I went up to the room the night they were reading the parts, but I didn't go in. There were so many there who were better than I, and I turned away and went down the hall. I wanted to try for the football team, too, but I told myself I was light and turned away from the practice field. And It's funny, but do you know that I can't go to see a football game now, because I see myself out on the field or on the stage as I might have been if I hadn't been afraid. And I find myself wishing I could go back to college to live those days over again.

News Item. Have you heard the latest news yet? Duke has taken to the air ... They are sending their own games out to the na tion ... They provide their own announcers, and they have no need of sponsors; they just spend their whole darn time dei fying their blue monsters, 'cause there's no one ito dispute their adulation ... They monopolize the broad casts with their football players' broad pasts . . . from their day of birth to their matriculation". . . There's just one thing I've been fearing: That the day is quickly nearing . . . when their mikemen in their praise of Duke so avidly are cheering, they'll forget to name the college which the Dukes are bravely smearing and I'll tune them off and find another station!

A teacher in a Moscow kin dergarten was briefing her youngsters on the gloriously high standard of living enjoyed by those fortunate enough to dwell within the confines of the Soviet Union. "Tell us, little Ivan," she be gan. "Who gave us this wonder ful school building with a play ground, workshop, and exqui site shrubbery?" "Comrade Stalin," answered the cherub. "And who gave us this mag nificant city with skyscrapers, museums, and broad boule ' vards?" continued the teacher. "Comrade Stalin," came the reply. "And who has transformed our one desolate homeland into a socialist paradise of peace and plenty?" Once again little Ivan uttered the magic password. "Excellent," beamed the teacher. "Now tell the class, do you have a portrait of Comrade Stalin on your wall?" "No." "Why not?" snapped the shocked, indignant tutor. "We don't have a wall." whimpered Ivan. "Our family lives in the middle of the room." "And Now For A Change In Tempo If- .Ms Tommy VITRIOL "Undoubtedly some of the 182 projects would not be under construction today if Congress had had reliable information from the Corps of Engineers, de veloped by competent engineer ing and planning." This statement is from a con gressional report investigating excessive costs of construction projects of the U. S. Army En gineers. It seems that the engin eers have a habit of making an estimate which is based on chance approval rather than cost of construction and then going ahead and spending the funds in order to make it neces sary to commit more to rescue the first. An example of this technique was a certain Missouri Valley dam project. The original esti mate was exceeded by over 3,000 more than thirty times the estimate. More recently there was a lit tle air base project started over in Africa. It isn't finished yet about half done so the present estimate is only 50 over the original. The difference amounts to about a dollar for every bu reaucrat, taxpayer and child in the nation. One might expect that the re sults of would be of superfine quality. Does it happen? Uh-uh, the runways (laid six months ago) of those African bases are already breaking up. With all that gravy the engi neers should be downright obese compared with certain five per centers.

Despite the impressive evi dence to the' contrary and the lack of favorable conditions they have decided that certain areas are convenient sites to practice, building huge ' dams. Just what the need for engineers who are experts in building dams on unlimited budgets is in combat is not quite clear. Nor is it quite clear why there is a need to destroy millions of dollars worth of fertile farmland to build a flood control system which is demonstrably inade quate as well as far more costly than more efficient methods. Perhaps it will boost farm prices by forcing less fertile land into use and relieving the world of its overburdening food surplus. Somehow my own mercenary motives keep intruding upon my consideration of this altruism. I keep remembf-ring that every time the government spends a billion dollars it costs me ten plus the hidden taxes. OLD book s From Paper - Backs At 2 ' for 25c On Up To Rare Items. Come See.

Camp To most of Carolina's fresh man newcomers, Wednesday, Sept. 17, was the big day the first day of college. Early in the afternoon on that day, how ever, another group, easily dis tinguishable by the rather hag gard and unusual air imparted by several days of rustication, made their appearances.. For them, the new life was not just beginning. They were already well on the way in pur suit of Carolina Tradition. I think that I was lucky to have been a member of this group of the approximate 170 boys who attended the Univer sity Y.M.C.A. camp at New Hope, seven miles from Chapel Hill. For us, Orientation Week gave knowledge to be stored, not up on a vacuum of ignorance, but upon an already-sound founda tion of the spirit, love, cordia lity, and loyalty of Carolina. Remembering the upperclass men and faculty members who had come to Camp New Hope to talk, sing, laugh, and meditate with us, we felt that we had gained a head start upon the later-arriving freshmen toward the love of the campus and the school. And there were few who had not made many first ac quaintances that will lead to life long friendships. Under the direction of Y.M.C.A. board, students, faculty and administration leaders, the Freshman Camp got underway Sunday, Sept. 14. Most of us who had come to Carolina had expected friendli ness and helpfulness to be qua lities of those leaders whom we were to meet. Yet, the actuality of these expectations surpassed our hopes. ,We learned something of the "Carolina Spirit." We became familiar with the magnetism and wonder of this sincerity that binds men with traditions and with a optimism toward the fu ture, not only for themselves, but for the world. We had mental glimpses, of the inspiration of a Thomas Wolfe, a Joseph Caldwell, a James I Lai Jar c Amit fPTl v V ( .

Graham, and of the meditation that is the fruit of a literal melting pot that molds, from men, buildings, "and idealism, the substance of a great state, and of a nation. Of the many activities of the Freshman Camp program, there were but a negligible few that did not meet with the hearty approval of the campers. From the high regard of "Men and Traditions at Carolina," as in terpeted by Director of Admis sions Roy Armstrong, and "The Expression of Religion in our College Experience," by Dr. Preston Epps, of the Department of Greeek, to the singing of "Hark the Sound," one could sense that here, in this open en vironment of camp, were being shaped ,the men who would exalt Carolina and all of its meaning to an upper stratum of their minds and hearts. What phase of Carolina life could not be complete without discussions, informal debates, and interest-inspired forums? Certainly, these things were not omitted at Camp New Hope. Great impressions were left, as persons, from members of the faculty, administration, Y.M.C.A. and student body, led groups of freshmen in hashing over topics that would be vital to them in the future. Some questions were an swered. Some, upon the never ending topics of such things as student and national govern ment, religious life, and politics, were covered thoroughly, then left to the decision of the indi vidual. Vice President Logan Wilson's final night address, "Faculty and Students Co-workers in a Com munity of learning," was the summation of the freshman camp atmosphere, the realization of the campus's freedom, the al lied responsibilities, and wake fulness to the fact that the stu dent's twenty four hours are his own.
