New Move
Made Here
For Funds
By Tom Parramore
Something is being done about
furthering the University's devel
opment. An organization known as the
University Development Council is
presently getting up steam to
launch a drive for gifts, grants
and bequests from UNC faculty
and friends. , . . . .
The idea for such a council
originated with President Gordon
Gray, who spoke of its need in
his inaugural address. Since that
time, a group of North Carolina
business men have set up commit
tees, acquired offices and begun
what will become a barrage of
printed matter on the subject.
Original chairman of the Devel
opment Council was the late James
A. Gray, but it is now operating
tinder the acting chairmanship of
J. Spencer Love of Greensboro,
chairman of the board of Burling
ton Mills.
Purpose of the organization is
to "attempt to derive maximum
benefit from present and poten
tial resources to make them more
active,, more serviceable and : to
unfold latent possibilities." To fur
ther this purpose the Develop
ment Council has sent or will send
letters and descriptive booklets to
University alumni and friends so
licitins their aid. In addition to
this, a Committee on Alumni An
nual Giving will present to all
alumni the opportunity of annu
ally assisting the University by
contributing to an unrestricted
fund.
Director of tne Council is
Charles M. Shaffer. Mr. Shaffer
is also director of the General
Alumni Association, president of
the Delta Kappa Epsilon Alumni
Association and former All-
Southern halfback at Carolina.
One of the main interests of
the council at present is to at
tempt to keep a central record
office for records of gifts, grants
and bequests and to act as a co
ordinator of all campus founda
tions and fund-raising organiza
tions. Among projects under con
sideration are a student union,
new auditorium and a museum.
Some of the prominent business
men who have volunteered their
services to the council are Robert
M. Hanes, Winston-Salem, presi
dent of the Wachovia Bank and
Trust Co.; George Watts Hill, Dur
ham, chairman of the board of the
Durham Bank and Trust Co. and
the Home Security Life Insurance
Co. and Holt McPherson, editor
of the Shelby Daily Star.

CLAIBORN McD. CARR
Heart Fund
Head Picked
Claiborn McD. Carr, of Biltmore,
well known executive consultant
for industry, has, been appointed
state campaign chairman of the
1953 Heart Fund Drive.
The appointment was announced
yesterday by Dr. Edward S. Orgain
of Duke Hospital, president of the
North Carolina Heart Association,
which has headquarters here.
Colonel Lawrence Simpson, U,
S. Army retired,: of Charlotte, was
named vice-chairman. He was chair
man of the Mecklenburg county
campaign last year. .
Goal of the drjve, in the State,
to be held during the month of
February, is $125,000.
A native of Durham, Chairman
Carr retired in 1951 after serving
more than 20 years as commercial
vice-president of the American
Enka Corporation. Prior to becom
ing associated with American Enka
in 1929 he was president of the
Durham Hosiery Mills for five
vears. He is a 1905 graduate of
the University of North Carolina
UNC History
Given Space
In Magazine
The University has received
plug throughout the country by way
of an illustrated feature article in
a nationally circulated magazine
Paul Green has written an in
teresting history of the oldest state
university from the point of op
eration, illustrated by a colored
man painted by a North Carolina
artist which appears- in the. cur
rent issue of the Lincoln-Mercury
Times, which has a circulation of
300,000. '
The North Carolina playwright,
writing of his alma mater, says the
University "has poured her gradu
ates into the structure and the mak
ing of a vital and dynamic dem
ocracy in the United States."
"She has provided a president
and vice-president for the nation,
five secretaries of the Navy and
many other cabinet members, num
erous United States senators and
congressmen, ambassadors and gov
ernment officials, presidents ana
faculty members of other colleges
and universities, and 26 governors
of the state."
His article occupies the four
center pages of the 34-page maga
zine. Artist for the two-page map of
the campus is Corydon Bell, for
mer advertising artist of Cleveland,
Ohio, who now lives at Sapphire in
the mountains of North Carolina
where he paints and writes and il
lustrates his wife's books for chil
dren. Author Green traces the growth
of the University from the laying
of the cornerstone of Old East,
oldest state university dormitory
in the nation, in 1733, to roaay
when, he says, even while expand
ing the Tfllage of Chapel HOI "still
remains a typical college town with
an attnosphei-e conducive to study
and devotion to leanaB&v

"tin the cafeteria. It simply was the
installation of a rubber stamp approval-
service. The clerk at the
cigar counter in the lobby indi
cated approval with the rubber
stamp provided by student gov
ernment. Then, cashiers in meal
lines accepted checks as cash and
without further checking of ID
cards.
"The first attempt to establish
a complete check cashing service
in Lenoir Hall failed miserably.
We're going to keep trying," de
clared President Ham Horton in
announcing the defeat.
Chief cause of the failure, stu
dent leaders say, was the lack of
support from the operators of the
cigar stand in the lobby. They com
plained of having to approve the
checks and said it overworked
them, according to student govern
ment officials. .
Commenting on future plans for
renewing the improved service, H.
R. Ritchie, manager of the Uni
versity retail store, declared, "We
met with Ham Horton and Stuart
Jones and discussed the pros and
cons of the situation. We haven't
just dropped the thing, but are
still trying to work out a way."
Stuart Jones, who worked out
the original arrangements with
George Prillaman, Lenoir Hall
Manager, Ritchie, and Archie Chris
topher, manager of the Scuttle
butt as well as the cigar stand
in Lenoir Hall, said that he is
still working on the project.
'Mr. Prillaman and I are going
to work out our own solution, sep
arate from the?. Book Exchange'
declared Jones. '.
Lenoir has been cashing checks
since septemDer, according to
Prillaman, so the new service was
just a supplement to the old one.
The new plan, engineered by Jones,
lasted only about two weeks.
Checks may still be cashed in
Lenoir, as always, as long as they
are for $5 or less.

' A new emphasis on the teaching
of economic concepts in the pub
lic schools will be felt throughout
Norht Carolina this year when the
first Economic Education Work
shop convenes here from June 10
to July 1.
Dr. J. R. Skretting, director of
the Workshop and assistant profes
sor of education in the School of
Education, said yesterday that this
important new development will be
brought to the people of North
Carloina by the School of Educa
tion and the School of Business
Administration of the University
in cooperation with the national
Joint Council on Economic Educa
tion. The importance of this move
ment to improve economic instruc
tion in the schools is indicated
by the fact that a group of busi
ness leaders in North Carolina, un
der the leadership of Dean Thomas
H. Carroll has agreed to finance
the entire expense of the three
week workshop, including 70
scholarships for full room, board
and tuition to administrators, su
pervisors, curriculum men, el
ementary and secondary teachers
interested in economics and social
studies.
