U-Mike Todd of film fame around the world was buried today as his beautiful widow, Elizabeth Tay lor, screamed "No, No" and his cab driver brothers started a family- argument. The beautiful brunette movi star let out a piercing scream the first time she saw the ctiskct that held the body of her hus band, who was killed with three others Saturday in a New Mex ico airplane crash. As she cried hysterically, Todd's elder brother; Carl Gold bogen, created a ruckus that al most stopped the simple Jewish rites before they started. Goldbogen, 61, a Long Beach. Calif., cab driver, had been es tranged from Todd and some other members of the family fo' years but he flew to Chicago for the services anyway. He had fought earner with his brother, David. Then as the funeral party en tered the tent that secluded the rites from a crowd of 2,500 curi ous, Carl screamed: "Get that Hanley out of here. He wouldn't let me in the house." He was objecting to the pres ence of Dick Hanley, Todd's ex ecutive secretary. Then David tried to restrain Carl but the cabbie yelled: "Throw me out. I dare you to throw me out. I will not be here while Hanley is here. 1 know I am only poor Carl." Finally, brother Frank took over and appeased him. Carl said: 'Til do it for yon, Frank." And the service went on. Miss Taylor, who has been in semi-hysteria since hearing the news of her husband's death, barely made the' walk from the limousine to the grave. With her bearded brother, Howard, holding one arm and Dr. Rexford Kennemar the other, the actress' feet barely touched the ground at times as she ap proached the tent-over the Gold bogen family plot. Twice during the rites in Waldheim Cemetery in suburban Forest Park, she wailed: "No, no." Then as a final gesture, she flung herself on the bronze cof fin and sobbed quietly: "I love you "I love you, Mike." Then, back to the limousine at the end of the service, she let her head fall on the shoulders of her brother, Howard. As the car had difficulty getting through some 300 or more per sons who lined the roadway, she said: . "Please, for God's sake get the car moving." Those who were closest to her feared that the ordeal was too much for the 26-year-old widow, still suffering from a virus at tack that reached a 102-degree fever. Policemen who escorted her up an elevator of the Drake Ho tel said she collapsed but was quickly revived by her doctor. According to the Jewish cus tom, male survivors of the dead producer spoke words over his casket. His son, Mike Jr.. 28, called his father "the greatest human being I've ever known.'

The Elections Board . ruled Monday that Brooks, a junior from Greenville, is ineligible to participate in spring elections because he does not meet requirements set forth in election laws. The election laws say a candidate must have an aggregate of 27 hours in the two semesters prior to the semester in which he is nom inated for office. Brooks has only 25 hours. After the Election Boards decision, the vice president nominee ap pealed to the Student Council but Council chairman Mac Patton said his body "definitely will not hear the case, as it stands now." A Student Party spokesman told The Daily Tar Heel that no candi date has yet been named to replace Brooks in the race for the vice presidency. - , . "As far as we know, he's still in the race until someone makes a -definite decision as to whether he can run," he said. j Attorney General Sonny Hall- ford, however, questioned about the Election Boards decision and the refusal of the Student Council to hear the case, was much more Miss Alice Mary Baldwin received j Miss Baldwin accepted her award . from Washington, D.

Here's Chance To Be A Star By MARY MOORE MASON ThereJs music in the air around Chapel Hill these days, and it comes from Chapel Hill students, students who are sending : records out to be played across the nation. Many of us have heard of George Hamilton IV of "Rose and the Baby Ruth" fame, of Andy Griffith who made "What It Was Was Football" here, of Hoke Simpson and "Gigi" and of Pee-Wee Batten who sang "My Big Brother's Friends." , All these talented students got their start through Colonial Re cords, a small recording company, headed by OrvUIe Campbell, which has its studios located in Swain Hall. However, just within the last few weeks, a completely different type of recording venture has been start ed, a company owned and operated by students who are looking for stu dent talent on the campus to record. Looking For Students Bill Tunstall, one of the owners of the enterprise, said just the other day, "To my knowledge nothing like this has been done on the cam pus before. We are looking for sut dents who can sing and play instru ments, and we already have some people writing tunes and words for us." When asked what the name of the company was going to be, Tun stall said that it was to be Tobe Records. He picked the name "Tobe" w hen he was looking through Life magazine one day and saw the name, so he and his "silent" partner decided to name their com pany that. Tunstall himself is a veteran who went to Campbell College at one time and who has also had quite a lot of radio experience. He has worked at radio stations, in pro duction and announcing in Texas, Oxford, Southern Pines and . Dur ham. Here at UNC he is a Radio-TV-Motion Pictures major. The first record that his com pany has made is one of a group led by Nick Kearns well-known cam pus entertainer and combo leader. One side of the record has a catchy rock and roll song "Down in Mexico," on it; and the other side holds a ballad with a slight somebody with that name. He like swing, "What Did Somebody Say?V The record has been played in the local stations but also on Jimmy Capp's, ' programs, "My Best to You." It is now being considered for RCA. The group of boys who made the record and who are eagerly await ing its outcome are Ed Crow, the sophomore drummer; Dick Stoker, sophomore sax player; Donald Trapp, arranger; Ralph Harrington, Gerald Purgason, and Jim Shumate, singers; Doyle Craven, bass; Wally Kufal and of course, Nick Kearns. Who knows, maybe we have an other George Hamilton IV right here on the campus. Whoever he is, he might do well to go down to Swain Hall and be "discovered" by Bill Tunstall and his recording com pany, , , ' . ,: v;, .

Boys, Boys & More Boys By MARY MOORE MASON Boys, boys, boys. That's what, the UNC trip to Europe this sum mer needs. They now have twenty attractive young women going, and six young men. Odd as it might seem, this call of distress came not only from the young ladies involved but from the gentlemen who are slightly afraid of the ratio. The tour now has room for about three more boys, and those who are interested have been asked to apply at the Y office. The following boys are already going: Dick Stoker, Ward Sims, and Norm White from UNC; Tom Hunter, Davidson; Waring Boys, NC State; and Ed Willingham. UNC graduate. In his appearance befor e the Election Board, Brooks said his lack of sufficient hours to meet re quirements of the law followed doctor's orders that he should not take a full schedule. Sticks To Laws ' The board, however, stuck to a strict interpretation of the law. "Election laws say you must have 27 hours for two semesters imme diately preceding the semester in which you are nominated," srid chairman Bob Furtado." John Brooks had only 25 hours." The ruling on Brooks by the Election Board followed closely on the heels of arf announcement Sat urday from the Dean of Student Affairs office which ruled eight other candidates for spring elec tions ineligible because they did not meet the requirements of the election laws. "Not Over Yet" Just what the outcome of Brooks attempt to remain a can didate would be was not known yesterday. He indicated, however, that he would press still further for added consideration by the Election Board. "It's not over yet," he said. IN THE INFIRMARY Students in the infirmary yester day included: Misses Carol Suther, Nancy Grubb, Nancy Hamilton, Caroline Richards, Rosiland Earle, Mrs. James Pully, and John Thompson, Townsend Holt, Frank Riggs, Nel son Lavern, David Parrish, Frank Abernathy, John Smallwood, Don Patrick Ray Collins, Abe Walston, Harry Stessel, Dick Clark.
