Keep Student In Mind
In DTH Says Whitley
DISTINGUISHED EDUCATORS A group of four distinguished educators who have been closely con
nected with the history of the School of Medicine has been unveiled at the school. The presentation was
made by Dr. Francis M. Clarke of Brunswick, N. J., a member of the class of 1920. The four men shown
in the painting are. left to right, the late Dr. C. S Mangum, the late Dr. I. H. Manning, Dr. James B.
Bullitt, now professor emeritus of pathology and th late Dr. William deB. MacNider. Shown here, back
to camera, is Miss Mittie Pickard who unveiled the portrait. Miss Pickard and Miss Sarah Virginia Dun
lap, both veteran staff members of the School of Medicine, were recently named honorary members of
the UNC Medical Alumni Association. This is the fi st time t'lat such action has ever been taken by the
organization.

"In the past, editors of the Tar
Heel have over-evaluated the im
portance and influence of their
editorials and grossly under-em-phasi.ed
the news. On a college
newspaper where the editor is
limited in the time he can spend,
the decision must be made as to
all else. Only if this basic function
of the newspaper is giv?n the im
portance it deserves by the editcr,
can the Tar Heel ever hope for im
provements along other lines.
"The editor can improve the
news that appears in the Tar Heel,
but only if he is willingly to work;
with news himself and willingly
to understand and solve the prob
lems connected with a non salari
ed, student staff.'
John Whitley, candidate for the
editorship of The Daily Tar Heel
said Friday that "The Daily Tar
Heel should be published with the
student in mind, and strive for
the good of the students and the
welfare of the University."
Continuing his statement, Whit
ley said: ,
"I believe in basically a con
servative editorial plicy, but one
which will take a definite stand
on issues. The editor should have
first-hand knowledge about issues
before writing; he sh,ould not be
too liberal, not too extreme.
"The editorial page should de-

keep the student body up-to-date
on the most important world .news.
"More interpretative editorial
columns are needed to acquaint the
average student with his Univer
sity. Letters to the editor are a
vital part of the editorial page. I
would encourage all constructive
criticism.
"All campus organizations should
be covered as thoroughly aspos-
sbile. To accomplish this. I will
strive to institute a larger staff
and bring the Tar Heel to a closer
working association with the News
Bureau and the Sports Publicity
Office.
"Very important world news
should be published, but only the
most important. National news
could be condensed by rewriting
the articles into short briefs.

Curtis Gans, candidate for edi
tor of The Daily Tar Heel sum
med up his program calling for a
larger, more lively, educational
and responsible Daily Tar Heel
Friday.
"In the past two weeks, I have
presented a program which would
lead to a financial sound, provo
cative, journalistically honest and
technically competent paper.
"I'm exceedingly gratified at
the support given me by the ma
jority of the staff of The Daily Tar
Heel and by the Student Party.
This represents a ratification of a
sound program for newspaper im
provement by both journalists and
student leaders.
"My program calls for a pro
vocative editorial page utilizing
both divergent opinions as well as
the. resources of the university fa
culty. ..
"The paper should include fea
tures on all walks of campus life
not only the student government
beat. Moreover, the paper should
undertake studies and investiga
tions into various aspects cf cam
pus life, utilizing the GMAB Polls
Committee to sample student opin
ion on the various issues that the
Daily Tar Heel is studying.
"The Daily Tar Heel can more
fully cover the campus by utilizing
a stringer and news tip system
which I have advocated in the
past. A more full coverage of in
traraural sports, minor sports and
women's athletics is included in
this program.
"The Daily Tar Heel can be a
larger paper if it wants to, by put
ting advertising men on a com
misson basis to give them some
incentive to get ads.
i The paper can become more
1 financially sound by tapping on
the resources of the 40,000 living
alumni and 7,000 parents, who rep
resent a potential revenue to the
paper of $200,000.
"Many of these parents and alum
ni cannot be reached on a daily
basis, but if The Daily Tar Heel
had a large Sunday paper with a
news of the week in review sec
tion and perhaps a people in the
news feature, the paper might be
able to sell subscriptions on a
weekly basis, which in itself would
raise advertising rates and add
extra revenue.
"A training system must be es
tablished for the staff to both
create and perpetuate good jour
nalism on the paper.
"Editorials dealing at least 50
per cent with campus events will
provide a proper balance, so that
the editor realizes his responsibil
ity to the campus as well as plac
ing the campus within the world
scope.
'I feel that with over six years
newspaper experience affiliated
in various capacities with such pa
pers as the Asheville Citizen
Times, Sylva Herald, New York
Times, New York Herald-Tribune
md many others, as well as over
'wo years of experience in all
ohases of The Daily Tar Heel op
eration, I will be able to put out
the most journalistically compe
tent newspaper.
"The participation in student ac
tivities for a period of almost
three years on this campus, has
given me knowledge of the entire
campus.
"I hope the student body will
take into consideration, my experi
ence, ability and program for
newspaper improvement before
they vote."

Pringle Pipkin, Daily Tar Heel
Editorial candidate, in a statement
Friday stressed the importance of
careful consideration of all prob
lems by the editor before launch
ing into controversial issues.
"The editor should think first ot
the good of the campus and its
students before he worries ab ui
trying to provide some provocative
controversy. i
'There are many problems on
this campus which need intelligent
investigation and consideration,
and the. editor should confer with
student and University officials to
learn more about these problems.
, Dissension
"But the editor should, never
stoop to stirring up dissension for
the purpose of assuring that he
will be able to stimulate and ex
cite the students every day.
"The editor must remember that
what he will write will probably
influence the public one way or
the other, and consequently, his
criticism should be constructive
and his ideas should be practical.
"The editorials should relate pri
manly to the campus or events of
campus. During the past two years
I have covered the news of the
campus, and I feel I am fit to ex
press intelligent Views on these
matters.
Aware Of Problems
"My approach to the campus will
be dual, for I am in a fraternity
and I also live in a dormitory. I
am aware of the problems facing
both groups of students, and I will
deal sympathetically with both
groups.
"I do not intend to avoid contro
versy; I will face every issue
squarely. However, my chief aim
is not to create controversy, but
rather to urge reform when it is
for the good of the students and j
the University.
"My basic beliefs, I feel, are
those held by the majority of the
oblivious to.
(See MEASLES, page 3)
be willing to urge worthwhile re
form, he also has a responsibility
to student opinion.
Will Take Stands
"I will take definite stands on
various issues after I have consid
ered the facts involved. Unless the
editor knows the facts, his stand
can hardly be wise regardless of
his high flown phrases.
"Speaking of the news' aspect of
the paper. I intend to increase the
staff by instituting an organized
recruiting and training program
next year.
"The campus news must cover a
wider range of activities. The
newspaper should make the stu
dents aware of the many worth
while, though small, organizations
which exist on this campus.
"On the business side of the pa
per, the circulation can be im
proved and the paper should work
