Oct. 17 (AP) The Examiner says it has been told that Russia will try to hit the moon with rockets Nov. 7. The newspaper's science editor, Christian Clausen, wrote today that the information came from a Euro pean scientist "who has talked to rocket experts who have escaped from the huge Russian rocket and missile base at Peenemunde in Germany." The scientist's name was not given. Clausen said his source told him the Soviets will aim three of their huge rockets at the moon from a launching base on the Caspain Sea, "the same spot whence the Red satellite was sent aloft." Flu Outbreak WINSTON-SALEM, Oct. 17 (AP) Wake Forest College reported today its 220th case of flu since the campus was hit by an out break about two weeks ago. College officials are presuming the flu is of the Asian variety al though only two cases have been definitely diagnosed. Infirmary quarters are remaining busy since new cases are coming in as fast as others are being released. ' Three new cases of flu were re ; ported at Salem College and Salem j Academy. The small infirmary al j ready was filled. There were 15 Academy students and five college students in. the infirmary. Four other students from the college have gone home at the request of ' their parents.

Wire Service 1 o J S)U (SOD Ask Lenoir Hall Invesiigation Bill By PRINGLE PIPKIN Representative Pat Adams (SP) introduced last night at the Student Legislature a bill to set up a committee "to investigate the negligence cf the duties of the management of Lenoir Hall." The second article of the bill stated, "the Student Legislature send a request to the N.C. State Board of Health for frequent sanitation in spections of Lenoir Hall without prior notice to the management." "Lenoir Hall has been derelict in maintaining this (a high) standard of good food at reasonable prices and of cleanliness," he charged. None of the bills from the meeting of a week ago got out of their respective committees. The bill to grant the Carolina Symposium ad ditional funds was held in committee for further study. None of the other standing com- : mitlees were aoie to meet Decause i they lacked quorums. ' Obviously ! the flu bug has taken its toll." said Speaker Don Furtado. The bill to allow the Carolina Symposium to keep funds appro priated by the Student Legislature in the Bank of Chapel Hill was al lowed to die quietly under Student Body President Evans' veto. Speaker Furtado announced that there were two vacancies for the Student Party on the finance corn- mittee. He also reminded the members that if they had more than one un excused absence from a regular legislature meeting or committee meeting, then they would have to drop out of the legislature. Representatives who "cut-out" are not eligible to run again for at year, he said . . - - SP members fatty Wall, Pat Hammer, Al Walters, Denton Lotz. Dave Jones, and Denis Rinzlcr along with Marian Ellis UP were sworn into the Student Legislature. Nineteen legislators were absent Twelve were from the University arty, and the remaining seven were members of the Student Party. The legislature is made up of 50 representatives. The flu epidemic seems to be waning according to campus med ical authorities. On a tour of dorms, fraternities, and sororities doctors visited approximately 750 students. Lenior Hall's effort to supply the students in the dorms sick with soup is reported "to be going well." Chancellor Aycock visited Lewis Dorm last night. He reported the student morale seemed good. SP Will Nominate At Monday Meeting Nominations for the fall elec-, tions will take place at the Student Party meeting on Monday at 7:30 p.m. in Roland Parker Lounges 1 and 2. Nominations will be made for Men's Dorm Districts 1, 2 and 3; for Town Men's Districts 1, 3 and 4. Nominations will also be receiv ed for dorm women, town, and freshman class officers. The Student Party will also elect a new treasurer and appoint cam paign officials at this meeting. Student Government Allots Dorms Money Student government officials announced yesterday that 50 dollars will be alloted each men's and women's dormitory for TV maintenance this year. The money is to come from $1,300 appropriated into the Student Activities Fund from dormitory vending n:hine profits. The repair work will be done according to a contract let to Dollar Radio and TV Service; the policy, as planned, is to have TV sets ordinarily repaired in two days. Procedure for repair work is that any dorm president or student body treasurer Bob Carter may report TV break downs, and that the procedure will be handled through the student gov ernment and not through the. IDC. After repairs have been made, bills will be sent directly from Dollar to treasurer Carter. Bills will not pass through in dividual dorm administrations for the sake of expediency. However, if dormitories overspend the allotted $50, the over draw will be taken from individual dorm social funds. The repair proposal is to iunction on a trial basis this year. If operations prove successful, the plan possibly will be institut ed on an annual, permanent basis, according to Carter.

It's not known here whether Queen Elizabeth sa;d, as she ac cepted the invitation, '"Now don't you folks fix up anything extra for us.' If she did, nobody paid any attention. Eisenhower, smiling and bowing, met her at the aircraft's door. A 21-gun salute echoed and the strains of "God Save the Queen" and 'The Star Spangled Banner" were played in the full scale mili tary welcome. Elizabeth, her husband and Eis enhower then moved in triumph ant procession from the airport to the W'hite House. Hundreds of thousands cheered, clapped and waved British Union Jacks as the three rode by in Eisenhower's bubbletop limousine. The weather, as if taking part also in the event, fitted itself to Elizabeth's schedule. Threatening rain held up during her hour-long procession. Then, later, it fell in a dreary drizzle from leaden skies when she and Philip went to Arlington National Cemetery. There, an unsmiling Elizabeth laid identical laurel wreaths, fes tooned with red rnd white carna tions, at the tomb of the unknown soldier and at the Canadian cross. Symposium Head Calls For More Participation Carolina Symposium Chairman Sonny Hallford yesterday called on all students, faculty members and townspeople who are interested in the 1958 Symposium to sign up for committee in student government offices at Graham Memorial.. Hallford made the request in the following statement submitted yes terday to The Daily Tar Heel: 'T would like to extend, on be half of the Carolina Symposium, a cordial invitation to all interested students, faculty members and townspeople who would like to seive on one 'of the symposium committees to come by the student government office in Graham Memorial and sign their names to the committee interest sheets. "One can contact Miss Staples, executive secretary of student Offices in Graham Memorial 1B.SG n Muffled drum rolls and taps sounded at the impressive cere monies. The dreary weather lent an added note of pathos to the bugler's call of lament for the war dead. The queen seemed wan as she arrived at the airport, perhaps be cause she already had put in four days of almost constant activity in Canada and Williamsburg. However, she was smiling broad- Ty. Mouth Opened On Closed TV A dental surgeon performed an operation this week before a closed circuit audience at . the UNC School of Dentistry. This operation was the first of its kind to be televised in the state. Dr. Marvin E. Chapin, who per formed the operation, removed 28 teeth from the mouth of an 11 year old girl. Senior dental students and stu- dents from the departmfjit of anesthesiology at North Carolina Memorial Hospital viewed ' the operation. The primary purpose . of the operation was to demonstrate techijues of administering gen eral anesthetics for oral surgery. government, who will show him the committees which are offered. We need good and capable committee heads as well as committee mem bers. I strongly urge you to let us know your interest as soon as pos ible. "The committees are classroom and Departmental seminar commit tee, organization and Administration commitee, handbook committee, social hospitaility committee, fin ance committee, physical arrange ments committee, publicity commit tee, exhibits committee and office staff. The functions of these committees will be briefly outlined on the inter est sheets. This request does not epply to those who have already expressed their choices." M ... Pi Roving Boctors Are Calling O n By ANN FRYE Carolina students suffering from the current "respiratory infections" have been urged not to attend classes. This advice came from Dr. O. David Garvin, district health officer for Orange-Person-Chatham-Lee counties. Though not specifically singling out UNC students, Dr. Garvin said that medical authorities agree on a simple treatment for flu-like cases. This treatment includes aspirin, fluids and rest. . The health official especially urged rest, since he believes the peak of flu cases will come within the next two weeks. He said that the cases may temporarily subside over the weekend. The number of flu cases in the University Infirmary jumped to 82 yesterday. There were 65 hospitalized Wednesday. According to a report from Ray State Dept. By EDITH MacKLNNON The selection process, the extent of work and the benefits of Foreign Service work came under discussion yesterday in a talk made by Howard R. Brandon. BrandoiK a U. S. State Depart ment representative, spoke to stu dents interested in career opportuni ties with the U. S. Foreign Service. Four- steps were outlined in the explanation of the selection process. Brandon told the group that appli- cants must pass both a written and an oral exam, a physical test and a security" check. cw-"-- ICWe are"fter the. very finest per - ... w -. ... sonnel, Brandon said.

Brandon also said that all trans- portation costs, housing or allow- t ances for rent, and clothes allow- ance for certain climates are paid by the U.S. government. In mentioning the benefits of Foreign Service, Brandon maintain ed that ."you never have a chance to be bored." A member of the F oreign Service for 15 years and s ' - an onicer on tour amereni cont inent, he noted that the total turn over in the service per year is less than seven per cent. Appliciations for the one-day writ- ten exam must be received by the Broad of Examiners in Washington before Oct. 28. Form blanks may ' be picked up in the Placement Serv ive office within the next few days. A written examination will be held Dec. 9 in Raleigh. Candidates must be between the ages of 20 and 31 and must have been a U. S. citizen for nine years.
