OCTOBER 4, 1952 FOUR PAGES TODAY 'Chased Around Pasture' 1 Death Of Rameses Is Attributed To Harassment, Heat, Or Old Age By Bob Slough 'Hi you ask me what killed Rameses, I'd say those Duke students worried him to death last fall when they chased him around the pasture all night." H. S. Hogan, the ram's care taker, was doing the talking as he looked over a flock of sheep grazing on the Hogan farm and told how Rameses died during the early part of July. "We are breaking a new ram now and should have him ready for the next football game," Ho gan said. Rameses VIII is a broth er to the ram that died in July. The 9-month old Dorsett is the son of a ram given to the school by a Carolina alumnus in Texas. Farmer Hogan stopped, puzzled a minute, then went back to Rameses' death: "Or, instead of those Duke boys it could of been the heat or just plain old age." The first Carolina ram was pur chased in 1924 when Victor Hug gins, local merchant, was cheer leader here. Bought by the Ath letic Association, Rameses made his first appearance at a pep rally before the game with Virginia Military Institute. The ram made quite a hit with the students and so did the Caro lina team as they squeezed by VMI the next day, 3-0. The history of Rameses VII is the most colorful of any Carolina mascot. He went to New York in 1949 and even caused a traffic jam while enroute to Yankee Sta dium for the Carolina-Notre Dame game. Even after the football season was over, the ram and "Bushy" Cook traveled throughout North Carolina, appearing in parades. "Bushy", the bewhiskered char acter seen s at Carolina football games, accompanies Rameses on all personal appearances. The Ram is not only popular with Carolina students, but Duke students as well. "In fact," Hogan relates, "there was a group of Duke students over here every night for two weeks last fall look ing for the ram." "They came over here during the day to find out where we were keening the ram and then came back at night to steal him," he said. "Every night I had to go out and take care of him." Sometimes the Duke men got as close as 50 yards to the Caro lina mascot but Hogan drove the ram further into the woods, The old ram became a pet on the Hogan farm. "He used to come by the barn every day for his feed," Hogan said. Hogan found the ram dead in the woods after he failed to show up for his daily feed Rameses VIII does not have horns equal to the old ram but they will develop as the ram grows older. "We even looked for a erown ram in Texas and Vir ginia but we couldn't find a good one," Hogan said. Dr. Norman Johnson Will Speak Monday Dr. Norman L. Johnson of Uni versity College in London will speak Monday afternoon in 206 Phillips Hall at a meeting of the Statistics Colloquim.

The Carolina mascot died in early July but no one knew it until Bob Slough, Daily Tar Heel reporter, noticed the ram was not at last week's game and began an investigation. A new ram an and old Bushy are scheduled to appear at the next home game.

At least, haphazard was the impression of Chapel Hill gained by a visiting Brazilian,- Alceu Amoreso Lima, writing in I 1 the current issue of "Americas." Lima continued, "The flavor of university life at Chapel Hill was a happy beginning for my tour of 20 universities." This tour took Lima through the South, affording him a close look at the universities in the United States in which he be lieves "lie the secret of the United States cultural might." Lima chose the South because of its closeness to Latin America and because of the South's social progress. Redeeming himself for the "haphazard" remark, he said, "I strolled around the campus among trees that were here a century be fore the university. T wandered among the forsythia in the aro boretrum, and spotted the Bra zilian independence date, 1822, on the facade of the old theater." In between looking around at the haphazard creation of the University and lecturing to Dr. Sturgis Leavitt's, Federico Gil's, and Harold Bierck's classes, Lima found time to learn more history about Carolina than most students themselves probably know. Lima started his tour of the South with the "oldest state uni versity in the country," which most people do know. Haphazard or not, Senora Lima was duly impressed by Carolina, saying, "The fascination of the university town is that its whole life is centered around the school. That is what lends so much charm to Chapel Hill. "Alumni come back to end their days where their eyes were open ed to intellectual life. To univer sity people, years spent on cam pus are the best years of their life." In the universities and in the South, Mr. Lima saw three things which warmed him greatly: ex traordinary economic, political, and cultural resurgence; close ties with Latin America, and an at tempt to resolve problems of ra cial discrimination. Duly impressed by the warmth of friendship, common feelings to ward racial problems, and the haphazard campus, all at Caro lina, Mr. Lima continued his tour k Vipnriinff for. you guessed it, Duke. UNC Lar oricKers Requited For Student Autos The dean of students' office yesterday reminded students who are using cars in Chapel Hill that there is a trustee regulation re quiring registration of all ve hicles.

H 5 f I $1' 9 1-TW( V --KVf mpirv JV Footballer Sam Sanders Is Mew Case Students Leave Despite Request To Remain Here Samuel L. Sanders, fresh man footballer from Winston Salem, was reported yester day as the fifth case of polio in the University. Sanders was scheduled to play in tonight's canceled jay vee game. He is being treated at the University Hospital. His con dition, and that of Harold "Bull" Davidson, Tar Heel fullback, have not reached a sufficiently advanced stage for proper dia gnosis, Dr. E. M. Hedgpeth said. Students earlier were request ed, not ordered, to remain in Chapel Hill for the next two weeks as a precautionary mea sure. The request, however, ap parently had little effect. Dor mitory parking lots were sparse ly filled late yesterday afternoon and the outgoing highways were dotted with hitchhikers. University officials renewed their request that students re main here and refrain from over exertion, since fatigue lowers polio resistance. Meanwhile news came that Pete Higgins and Bob Barden were out of isolation and improv ing very rapidly. Lee Bostain al so is progressing, Dr. Hedgpeth said. Higgins is a varsity swim mer and Barden and Bostian are on the cross-country team. Sanders was a spectacular guard at Reynolds High School in Winston. He was given all-city, all-conference and all-state re cognition in the grid sport, ex celling also in baseball. He has a brother, Tom Sanders, who is a senior here. Long distance telephone calls both in and out of Chapel Hill were reported as doubled in num ber by a telephone company offi cial. The official said the polio scare was the cause of the in crease, as students contacted anx ious parents, or vice versa.
