The xvay to find out facts
useful facts about Carolina isnt
in handbooks or guidebooks or
even in orientation, really. It's
from the people that run things,
and often the people that don't
get much recognition. They're the
ones that really love their jobs.
Graham Memorial is one of the
places lots of students take for
granted. But if you get curious
about what goes on their ask
Unnd Bailey about it.
Rand is starMng his fourth year
as a cog in the GM wheel. He
started out xvorking in the pool
room and is now building supervi
sor. You'll find him doing every
thing from making oxer desks in
to cofee tables to xvashing xvin
dows io making electrical repairs
in The Daily Tar Heel office.
He knows the building inside
out and gets as excited about
building partitions in the Ram
Kwe office as he does about the
new color television set on the
TV lounge.
He was telling us the other
night about improvements in GM
this year The color television set
is one. Another is the additional
television room that has been set
up on the landing on the right
hand side of the building. The por
table television set is moved other
places when it isn't in use there.
The TV lounge, according to Band,
was packed Sunday night and peo
ple are even coming in to watch
afternoon programs.

FROM THE DAILY KANSAN:
London's Switchblading,
And A Censored Cadaver
The Russian's increased stub
bornness at the London disarma
ment talks following their an
nouncement of the creation of an
inter-continental guicltxl missile
shows that negotiations between
nations ai not grounded upon
reason. "Priiaicss" has taken tho
reins, and man is now guided by
his missile.
Man's present' plight over to
atomize or not to atomize, as em
bodied by the London disarma
ment talks, is another in a con
tinuing series of events illustrat
ing how easy it is to jniss the
point.
The babble of disarmament has
grown so large that disarmament
itself appears to have become the
end. rather than a means to end
war. The diplomatic battle at
London regressed to a high-level
hullfest comparing national switch
blades. The contemporary " reasoning
seems to be that the cause of war
is ihe weapon. This discounts the
age-old method of choking an an
tagonist to death. This reasoning
followed to a conclusion, would
dictate that each man would have
his hands severed at the wrist
and his toes blunted.
The desire to xvage war is not
based upon possession of weapons,
but upon a state of mind Some of
the basic causes of xvar, such as
greed, fear. envy, and misunder
standing have been forgotten as
man runs a footrace xvith his be
loved machine.
The idea that the discontinuance
of the armamcMits race will con
tribute to the halting of world con
flict is sound, but it is the begin
ning of the toughest job tho worltt
x ill ex'cr face the creation of a
lasting peace.
Man is not preparing for a fu
ture, but rather is postponing an
end. Diplomats appear to be men
not in control of their technical
forces, but guided by them. Each
innovation in xxeapon-making up
sets the delicate balance of di
plomacy. This says little for man
and points to the victory of mach
ine over reason, and eonscciueiv.ly,
man. The policies betxveen gov
ernments are not based upon rea
son, or evcn attempted under
standing, but on the present levcl
of technical intelligence.
If and when disarmament is
accomplished, man is liable to sit
back and say, "We've destroyed
man's ability to wage xvar." This
is nothing but international cheer
leaderism. The desire to xvage xvar is a
hardy weed and not easily up
rooted by diplomtaic exhortations,
objurgations, and snorts. The fact
that John Doe in Zarah, Kan.,
doesn't have a gun means little
to Abdul who stands barefooted
in the sand and contemplates a
haywire jingoistic slogan. It is of
such Under that xvars are made,
and no amount of diplomatic nin
ccmpoopery will stave off basic
hatreds.
The Kansas City Star has cen
sored poor, pitiful Claude, one of
the latest additions to the chain
ot characters xvhieh pass through
the life of Dick Tracy.
A picture of Claude, ensconced
in his icehouse penthouse, xvas
dolcied from a 4-panel series of
Dick Tracy in a recent edition of
the Star.
Thc deletion xvas probably made
in an effort to prevent publication
of material xvhieh the Star con
siders to be in bad taste.
Claude doesn't present a pretty
sight. The mere fact that he is
dead, let alone the fact that ici
cles drip from his salloxv chin,
eliminates him from any consi
deration as Mr. America.
His absence from the comic
s:rip didn't hurt the story' much,
either. All the censored panel con
tained was an off-stage quote from
his wife, the gal responsible for
Claude's present low temperature.
Nevertheless, xve had grown
fond of Claude. In a comic strip
which has seen prune faces. B-B
eyes and dxvarfs. Claude xvas a
genuinely new txvist.
At least he doesn't prance
through thc strip sticking his nose
into young lovers' affairs. Not
once did he strut across the Sun
day comic section with a chest
full of Air Force service ribbons.
He may never xvake up, but it's
a cinch he xvon't wake up in a
newspaper office, clad in a negli
gee. Claude may have made off xvith
S200.C00. but he ll have a long time
to repent while sitting in that
cold-storage room. He really may
be a nice felloxv. His personality
just needs to be a little xvarmer.

The title of this column correctly impeses that
it exists by and for music, but unlike it; od:ous bed
fellows it will not endeavor to pursue the prosa.c
s We hat has branded recent musical journalc
as publicity slosh and hackneyed presentation.
3 But though there will be no patented presenta
tion "Odes On Music'5 shall always have Uxo un
derling purposes: to entertain and to how tha
even where music is concerned, -The uorld. a,
Oxenstierna so ably put it," is ruled only b a
fraction of . wisdom."
Fitfeen years go, or thereabouts, a small weed
appeared on a swinging horizon. The country was
stiil entralled with the melodious drive of the
Goodman's and Dorsey's. and the subtle swing ot
Glenn Miller. .
fiut there were men in music tired cf a goo-,
thing Thev wanted something new, something of
their own. they called it their seedling bebop and
it consisted of weird solo patterns interspersed xyitn
fractions of melody lines from such old Mcnhcr
Goose reciters as "Mary Had A Little Lamb ai.a
"Jack Korner Sat in A Corner. '
For five years this legitimate youth ef azz
couldn't get to first base with the public. For that
matter, nothing could, because the public donned
ear muffs for-the entire duration of the war, caus
ing bands to drop off like flies in the face of -flit.
So devotees of bebop labored for peanuts and
self-en jovment in booze dumps. Harlem cellars and
fellow advocates' garages. Its pillars of granite
were Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker. Stan Kenton.
Roy Havnes, and a handful of others who fell on
their heads as babies, creating ambry os for ex
citing, surrealistic forms of expression.
From these shaky beginnings, modern jazz, with
its gendarme of progressive, cool tut and tuthcr.
has miraculously grown to undreamed of popularity.
But why? The Ivv League kiddies (these come
in all forms) go for it because it's like them.
STRANGE. Brainy individuals say the music isn t
trite and offers food for thought. Belt-buckled cats
needed an excuse so they pounced on this one like
a fat xvallet.
Though the" vogue threatens to become consum
mating in our colleges, the dissenter has the hope
of final triumph, for man needs a musical reicae ol
his repressions and this modern jazz docs not pro
vide.

The Genesis Of
Progressivism
Al Walker
So you've been through registration. So your
troubles have just begun. You are now attending
the University of North Carolina. Oh. ou po.r
fish.
One of the most firmly entrenched institution
at this school is The Daily Tar Heel. It is deiivered
to your door, whether you're going to read it or not.
It will try to start controxersies. and then solxe
them, to increase your interest in it. But it won't
do any good, because you will have already fallen
into the trap that ensnares most of the people vhj
live here and ''study" here.
Ah. but this year The Daily Tar Heel ha a new
and xvonderful attraction being added to its pate
thrice weekly. And this xvonderful thing which will
cause you to pick up the paper with trembling fin
gers and tear open to the page on xvhieh your
eyes now rest is my column.
Oh, if only some senior had written a column
as good as mine is. when I wai but a mere wander
ing freshman. Hoxv it would have saxed me from
many self-evaiuating looks at my development in
this large, crawling place The Hill. But this xcar.
things arc different.
When I was a freshman I came a week early for
orientation week. What a wonderful way to start off
your college career. Meeting under the beautiful old
trees with a real college man in a white butto.i
down shirt and a dull tie and about seven or eight
other wide-eyed members cf your indoctrination
group. As he fingers his blue book with all the won
derful facts about our school and its traditions and
sayings and things to do and things not to do, you
can't help but wonder how you yourself, will' turn
out after four years here.
And you wander drearily around the campu
seeing the lovely sundial which, incidental point
at thc North Star, in case you ever wonder which
way is north, and the planetarium, which v,Ul
probably be your last visit there unless vou inv te
somebody down or up from your hometown and
you want to impress them with the academic ido
of our campus, and the art gallery, which alo in
cidentally, we are getting a new one of, over near
Barclay's Station, and the library. I can remember
when my orientation counselor showed our
around the library. The thing he stressed thmoi
was where the head was. Apparently when he xxa
a Freshman, he nearly split a gut looking for the
damn thing. Well, he showed it to us. and fhaxe
never forgotten where it is. It is a very good head.
As I th.nk back about my orientation counselor,
the thmg that I remember most clearly about him
s the fact that he "tried" to be a typical Carolina
Gentleman, not only in his clothes, but his thinking.
At the t.me, as I recall, I was truly impressed by
those mtang.ble qualities which go to make up this
Now that I have found that Chapel Hill has

self to the fact and at times even have enough guts
to sit amongst aw hole passel of them at "Wi

So much for that.
