Oppenheimer's statement is as fol

Carolina to be intrusted with the
privileges of self-government. Such

Tension Eases
At Little Rock
By The Associated Press
Nine Negro students moved
smoothly through a second day of
integrated classes at Central High
School Thursday. They were pro
tected every step of the way by
Army paratroopers but tension at
the buff brick institution seemed
to be easing.
There was no blood-letting and
no skirmishes outside the big
school, ringed today as it was yes
terday with steel-helmeted, bayo-ncl-rMdy
Army rffrnv. fstttftr-tlt
coming out of classes reported no
disturbances inside.
' 1 would su;;geM that you study
them carefully; nianv of them were
;i ado for your benefit and protec
tion It you are m doubt as to what
is and what is not a violation, have
the point clarified by some respon
sible individual before you innocent- ,
ly violate them; for remember that
by violating these rules, you jeopar
dize yourself and the fraternity, but
more importantly, you betray a
.sacred trust which we have placed
in you.
Speaking for myself and all the
fraternity men at Carolina. I wish
you the very best of luck during
your rush week and . your college
career."
Initial rush parties will be held
Sunday from 2:3U-:t(l Sunday and

Such veterans could, under ap
plication to and subsequent ap
proval of the Dept. of Physical
Education, be excused from all
physical education courses.
The change approved by Dean
Johnson and the General College
Administrative Board grew out
of a petition submitted to General
, College authorities last spring.
! The petition asked that physical
education requirements for vet
erans be placed on a "voluntary'
; basis, and resulted in following
changes in the administration's re
quirements: ! 1. Any veteran who feels that
he has a valid reason for not tak
ing physical education may submit
a request for exemption to the
Dept. of Physical Education.
i 2. Valid reasons will include
j such things as excessive age and
family responsibilities.
i 3. Every such request will be

Roy Armstrong, director of ad
missions, was contacted by the
Daily Tar Heel to issue a statement
as to why the freshman enrollment
j at the University has declined,
i Armstrong said that while the de
crease in the General College can
not be attributed to one or two ma
jor factors, it could partially be ex
plained bv the increase in the cost
j of living, increase of interest in
i technicological training and the eli- j
gibility rules. !
Concerning the higher cost of liv
ing. Armstrong said that a partial '
failure of tobacco crops in :he east- !
ern part of North Carolina might i
have accounted for the absence of
some students who might otherwise
be here. The statistical report in
