Contrary to what -Eisele had said in an editorial Sunday, all three comic strips will appear in the paper, starting probably after Christmas. In his editorial Eisele said that all three strips would take up too much room on the editorial page. He said that an election would be conducted to determine which two of the three, students would prefer to have run in the Tar Heel. In reversing his decision, Eisele said that by putting the titles of the strips to the left and by a tighter make-up on tHf editorial page, the three strips would take up only one more inch in length than the two comic strips do now. The titles of Pogo and Lil' Abner, which appear in The Daily Tar Heel, are now placed above the strips. Eisele said he decided to include all three after a discussion with th printing shop that publishes the newspaper. The printing shop indicated to Eisele that under a revised make-up, all three I strips would take up only one additional inch. ?)

Writer Analyzes History, Evolution Carolina S ymposBum By DAVIS YOUNG In !, than four months the Car olina S mpoMimi will present it '.)7H program to the campus, stale and nation. This is one of the fore most organizations of its type in the country and a closer analysis of the pertinent work that it i.s accomplishing now, what it has done and that which the future va il' reveal is important to a complete understanding of the Symposium's purpose. Stephen Vincent lienct once stat cd: 'There is a crisis in our nation al life and it is now. It is not torn morrow or the day alter tommor row, but now. How long it will last, not tme of us can say. But while it lasts, it will touch the thoughts, the acts, and the day-to day lives of us all." The recognition of the criticia Mtuatioiis we must constantly face as a nation has been one of the integral works of the Carolina Sym jMitim and its parent organization the Institute of Human Relation These two organizations have seen as Benct stated, the crises which touch our thoughts, nets and lives. But the Institute and Symposium lave done more than merely ack nowledge the presence of our im perfections and problems. They have L'one further than a mere dissection by offering concrete sug gestions lor our improvement thr ugh participation of outstanding leaders in various lields and thr- ougn educating those who have t'ome to listen and hear. The reputation of the old In stitute and the present Symposium is ea.sily seen through the willing ness of such outstanding men as Dr. Frank Graham, Ralph Bunche and General Carlos Romulo to participate. It is considered a high honor to be asked to partake in the activities of Symposium Week. The first Quadrennial Institute on Human Relations was held in 15)7 under the auspices of the YWCA. It started a strong traditi- s. nin Institute-Symposium affairs by presenting the now .standard three part program. It concentrated on relations and human elements in industry. Although its speakers were not as renowned as those now invited, they represented a wide cross sec tion ol outstanding academic and clerical leaders. In retrospect it is easily seen that in an evaluation ot this initial program its chiet significance is that it was the first such venture at Carolina and would eventually evolve into the import ant and powerful Symposium of the 1950s. In May of 1931 the Institute held its second program with much broader participation and interest There were 19 guest speakers, 22 public meetings, 94 classroom sem inars and a general attendance of over 25,000. A similar program was held in 1935 as the third Quadrennial In stitute on Human Relations. How ever, the 1953 committee recom mended that in the future the In stitutes be held on a biennial basis due to the rapidity in which the world conditions were chang ing. With World War II becoming imminent, the 1937 and 1939 In stitults concentrated ttieir efforts on examining our international re lations and educational system. In 1941 the Institute covered the most pertinent of all problems lacing us in this trying era: "The Unitea States in the World Crisis." Many political and diplomatic leaders from both the national and international scene participated in this event. The seventh Institute in 1943 discussed "Total Victory and Glo bal Peace." It presented a careful analysis of a "review and study of our domestic and international pro blems and responsibilities in the War, in Post-war Reconstruction and in the Peace." On April 8 of that year, Ameri ca's Town Meeting of the Air kick ed off the '43 program from the UNC campus featuring Sen. Joseph Ball of Minnesota and John Flynn, I noted New York journalist. Other speakers included Clarence Dyk stra, former chairman of the Se lective Service Board and ex-Sen. Josh Lee. President Franklin D. Roosevelt stated in 1945: "As we dedicate our total efforts to the task of winning this war we must never lose sight of the fact that victory is not only an end in itself, but in a large sense, victory offers us the means of achieving the goal oi lasting peace and a better way of life." The Institute of that year reali stically recognized the problems we would face after the most ter rible war known to man. Such specific topics as "The Stabiliza tion of the World Economy" were discussed at length. Sen. J. W. Full bright of Arkansas and Wendell Berge, assistant attorney , general of the United States Justice De- j partment were on hand Jor this program. The termination of the 1945 In stitute marked the end of an era at Carolina for during the next 11 years nothing was to be heard from this organization. However, in 1956, alter this prolonged absence, the Institute on Human Relations was revived as the Carolina Sym posium on Public Affairs. The '56 Symposium program examined Old Problems in the New South," "The Emerging World Community Problems and Prospects," and "The United States in the World Today." Dr. Frank Graham, Ralph Bunche, General Carlos Romulo, Colbert McKnight, Benjamin Mays and Dr. Ralph E. Lapp all helped to make this one of the finest events of its type ever presented And now in 1958, we have pro spects for a most pertinent, edu cational and provocative program As outlined in the pre-Symposium brochure it will once again be pre sented in three parts: "Physical Survival,' "Cultural Survival," and 'American Values in Crisis." Sonny Hallford, chairman of the 1958 Symposium had this to sa concerning the program: "The 1958 Symposium is attempting to focu the attention of the University community on the key issue of out times - survival. In subject .matter the speaker. and contributors to the Symposium will consider: "The threats and promises of contemporary science, the political strategies of peace and war, the strengths and weak nesses of contemporary educatior techniques, the relationships of American cultural patterns tc other in the world, and the rea sons why survival Tias value ir human, democratic, religious and ethical terms. "In the course of Symposium week in March a great variety of distinguished speakers will come to the University campus for sem inars, classroom discussions and formal addresses. "They will offer 9 variety o view points. We expect broad par ticipation in these activities by students, faculty and citizens in what we hope will be a most stimu lating series of experiences." The 1958 Symposium will be the tenth such program presented on he University campus in the past 31 years. Participation for this vear's program has come from a wide variety of sources; from the office of Chancellor Aycock to the general student body. Aid, both in a monetary and 'abor sense has been contributed by almost every social and service organization on campus. With such widespread interest and a tenta tive list of outstanding speakers, the 1958 Symposium on Public Af fairs cannot be anything but a suc cess.
