Charges Are Denied By Graves By JIM PURKS Louis Graves, editor of the Chapel Hill Weekly, calmly de nied yesterday a statement by Joe A n rtucti'nn r f i It T"-! r r PrnmA. posed to progress in Chapel Hill. "I'm not against progress at all," Graves said. He reiterated, ! however, his opposition to the merchants' idea of putting adver tising signs outside the city limits of Chapel Hill. Graves pointed out that he was "just one" of a great number of people in Chapel Hill who think it is not appropriate for Chapel Hill to have billboards. He said that the merchants' plan of using painted signs instead of billboards would not lessen the opposition. "I think the merchants should consider the good-will of the peo ple in Chapel Hii. their regular customers, who aremore valuable to the merchants than an occa sional stranger who may: buy something." , 1 ' Graves repeated tie was "hearti ly" in favor of progress in Chapel Hill, but believes the merchants will hurt their business if they go against the wishes ' of the Uni versity faculty and the residents of Chapel Hill. ' h Augustine said' Saturday! that Graves' editorial in last ; peek's Chapel Hill Weekly- in which he opposed the merchant's idea of putting advertising signs outside Chapel Hill was "unfortunate" and had incurred ill-will, against Graves among the merchants. Augustine is chairman of the Trade Promotions Committee of the Merchants' assn. and has. been authorized by ithe Board d Di rectors to look" further intt the possibilities of advertising ootside the immediate limits, of Ohapel Hill. ; " WUNC-FM'S GAME BROADCAST: Commercial Complaint Caused Cancellation By CHARLIE SLOAN Cancellation of WUNC - FM's basketball coverage planned for last night came as the result of a misinterpretation of the Uni versity's broadvision agreement with commercial radio and tele vision stations. WUNC Radio Director John Young explained that when Uni versity officials met with repre sentatives from radio and tele vision stations in WUNCtTV's broadcast area it was agreed that three games would be broadvised. Since then the proposed broad vision of th? State game has been cancelled. When Young discovered that no radio or television stations in the area were planning to ' cover . the Virginia game in Charlottesville 'last night . ths WUNC-FM 'staff started making arrangements - to report the play-by-play. . -V; -; ' Sunday; morning, Rafter ' wide spread, publicity was 'released on WUNC-FM's coverage Consoli dated University Vice President and Finance - Officer ..W'illiam ; Car-1 michael notified Young that the University had received ' a com plaint that the coverage was in violation of the broadvision agree ment made Jan. 15. . ; - UP To Discuss Procedures For Election Today The University Party will meet tonight at 7:30 in Roland Parker Lounges 1 and 2 in the Graham Memorial.

They stop drivers who en ter the danger zone going too fast and give them lectures of the follies of driving too fast. They also give parking tickets. They are our friends. . Young said the University group had. not meant for radio to be in cluded in the agreement, but that the University's policy is to "work cooperatively with all groups." According to Young the Uni-! versity was faced with the decis ion of whether to go back on the publicity to their audience and cancel the game or go ahead and broadcast the game and appaar to break faith with the commercial stations. Al group of WUNC-FM staffers had already been sent to Char lottesville when the cancellation was made. The Athletic Associa tion, had arranged to pay the line charges, and were offering com plete cooperation, said Young. Speaking of the broadcast's un expected cancellation. Young said, "I .' regret very much wre can't carry it." - The broadvision .of the State game was cancelled because , of heavy conflicts ' with high school gam.-s the same night. Young ex plained that for most schools it will be the final night of the season and WUNC-TV could not compete with commercial, stations earning high school games: Four Players Drop Out Of School: Tatum .

Louis - Armstrong ! has spread his musical fame throughout Europe and other parts of the world. One of his greatest successes came in Britain, where-, his' jazz fans included such notables as Princess Margaret and the Duke of Kent. The quotable Satchmo has his own colorful views on jazz and the musical world. When he was asked the reasons for the return in popularity of Dixieland jazz, Louis grinned, "Daddy, it ain't! never been away."
