WHILE YOU WERE GONE: There Was No Summer Slump Around COMPILED BY CLARKE JONES Several important news stories occurred while you were gone dur ing the summer. Included are: 1. Visit of a Russian student group whose leader drew sharp criticism from News Bureau Di rector A. G. (Pete) Ivey; 2. The first truly international congress in the field of humani ties1; 3. Anniversary celebrations of North Carolina Memorial Hospital end Chi Phi fraternity; SUMMARIES OF THE STORIES: A group of ten Russian students visited .the UNC campus in early August. Its leader, 34-year-old Evgenii Bugrov, consented to a press conference. The time, however, conflicted with a Gov. Hodges conference, and a new time was set. As a result only one reporter showed up. Ivey waited ten days, then wrote an appraisal of the group's visit. He said Bugrov was "a mode! of modern Soviet double talk and tricky footwork." Ivey also called him "two-faced.' r 4 Stall Photo iJy Buday ipoon SIGN HERE, AND HERE AND HERE-Registration wasn't all standing in line; sometimes new stu dents got to sit in line and fill cut forms.

Daily Tar Heel Editor Curtis Gans, then acting student body president during Don Furtado's absence, strongly disagreed with Ivey's appraisal. Gans said Ivey ". . . forgot his responsibility to the fads" some where along the line. "It could hardly be called Bu grov's fault that (Gov. Hodges) decided to call a press conference at the time that a Chapel Hill press conference for the Russians was scheduled.'' Chancellor William B. Aycock stood by Ivey, saying the News Bureau official had the right to report his appraisal of the tour. "Ivey is regarded by me as a fair and impartial reporter of the news," Aycock said.

The housing status for women was described as "very comforta ble" by Miss Isabelle MacLeod, executive secretary of the Dean of Women's Office.

Physicists pointed out that the lights are not uncommon this far south once every 11 years. They say this is because the lights are especially strong when there are sun spot, or signs of special activity on the sun. This occurs in eleven-year cycles, and this is the eleventh year. Because of the changing posi tion of the earth in relation to the sun, it is also likely that the lights are visible during March and September. The coincidence of the 11th year cycle and the month of September accounts for the likeli hood of continued display of the northern lights at latitudes this far south. Professor Everett D. Palmatier, chairman of the Physics Dept. and an authority on cosmic rays, said recently the remarkable "fire" seen in the skies earlier this year is likely to be repeated again this month. Morehead Planetarium Direc tor Anthony Jenzano compared the lights to a neon light elec tricity passing through gas to cause a glow because it is in a vacuum. The same sort of thing happens as raj's pass through gasses to cause the aurora phe nomenon.
