Stipends for teaching fellow ' ships are $1,000 for the first year, with extras for tuition, fees and for dependents. ! Since those, selected choose the college or university most likely to equip them best for their future careers in the "academic world, the fact that the University at Chapel Hill was picked more frequently than any other institution in the country is significant of the regard which graduate students hold the graduate and research and teacher training opportunities at Chapel Hill. Significance The meaning of the grants and the irecognition that has come to the University was heralded today by Dr. Louis Round Wilson, Kenan Professor and author of the book published yesterday '"The Univer sity of North Carolina 1900-1930." Professor Wilson said, 'the im portance of the presence of these scholar and students in the Univer sity lies in the fact that from the beginning the University has the opportunity to select a specially qualified group for its teaching pro-'p-am and for its fellow institutions in North Carolina and in the region. This Importance is accentuated !by the flood of students that the Uni versity will have to take care of 'In common with other institutions, all of which are going to be con fronted with securing instructors, and in view of the competition of industry and the federal service." Research Triangle Dr. Wilson added that the Uni versity of North CarilLna, in colla boration with otfter institutions of the state, have got to "man the Re search Triangle." The decisions of this high percentage of doctoral candidates and prospective college teachers to come to the University and other institutions in this state is a gratifying sign, he declared. Dr. Wilson also' recalled the mes sage of former President Harry Wood burn Chase in 1930 to the Board of Trustees': " "The University of North Caro lina 'has attained ta position among the significant institutions for high er education in America .... At precisely the time when the State and the South are being brought in to competition in such definite ways with the remainder of the country. the University has come into a pos ition in which it can offer to South ern youth a training that does not shrink from measurement by na tional standards." Legislature An effort is being made now to maintain the standards, declared Dr. Wilson, the reputation which the University at Chapel Hill holds in the eyes of scholars in the South is a reflection of tbo.se standards. The General Assembly, now in session, has programs before it for strengthening the graduate program and raising faculty salaries at UNC, a prime purpose, being to put the faculty salary scale here on a firmer foundation which would enable the (University to hold on to faculty members who might be tempted to leave "for higher paying Jobs at other institutions. corvawHT im tmc coca-cji company Dorit just sit there!

Reducing friction to a minimum enables Timken bearings to eliminate the hot box problem, No. 1 cause of freight train delay. They roll the load instead of slid ing it. And that's why the Southern Railroad has started to go "Roller Freight", with 415 of its freight cars on Timken bearings. One of 58 railroads making the big switch to "Roller Freight" to speed shipments, by eliminating the hot box problem, cutting terminal bearing inspection time substantially. And when all railroads go "Roller Freight", they'll save an estimated $224 million annually. The Timken Company pioneered the use of roller bearings for freight cars. We're looking for young men to pioneer improvements like this with us, help find new places to reduce friction, speed up machines. Men who want to grow with the world's largest manufac turer of tapered roller bearings. Men. who will work hand-in-hand with the railroads, and with the people who make aircraft, automobiles, construction and farm machinery. We think you might find profitable reading in our booklet, "Career Opportunities at the Timken Com pany". Drop us a card at The Tiraken Roller Bearing Company, Canton 6, Ohio.
