According, to Rick Wolfer. senate
member and chairmen of the Ways

is one which will Increase govern

th antiquated federal system and
the friction Inherent within the U.S.

Wolfer added the need for this

Wolfer also pointed to such in

Is Talk Topic
Tonight At 8
The Bernard Baruch of Julius
Caesar's days Marcus Cicero '
will be topic of the Humanities Lee
ture tonight by Latin Prof. Walter
Allen of UNC.
The speech will be given in Room
106, Carroll Hall, at 8 p.m.
In "Private and Confidential: Cic
ero's Correspondence" Dr. Allen will
bring up such topics as the famed
Roman's orator's position on the
Caesar-Pompey controversy and his
later stand against the tyranny of
Mark Anthony.
The lecture is open to the public
nation. An editorial by Christian
efebure, editor of the Quarterly
ast year, was reprinted in the
ntro-Bulletin, a monthly newspaper
of the arts published in New York
City.
As a result of a Quarterly article
ast year called "Reds, Profs, and
Cadillacs" Dr. Walter Arndt of UNC,
was asked by The Nation to write
a similar article for their use.
Recently the North Carolina State
Department of Public Instruction
approved the Quarterly for pur
chase by high school libraries in the
state.
The Quarterly provides a place
for writing of merit from students
of UNC as well as contributions from
authors from all parts of the coun
try. According to a policy state
ment made last year the wide
scope, as opposed to drawing ma
terial from local sources only, has

Real Tragedy
Several IPlaymakers had a close

the mock trial preliminaries Sun
day night after the final perform
ance of "Look Homeward, Angel."

the rope slid through the hands of

soon recognized as futile since the
deep cut over Miss Johnson's temple
apparently caused death instantaen-
ously.
Unaware of the accident, Mrs.
Fitz-Simons and other members of
the cast carried on their perfor
mances flawlessly. When informed
of Miss Johnson's death, however,
Mrs. Fitz-Simons was hysterical
with grief.
According to the script, during
the third act while acting the part
of Eliza, Mrs. Fitz-Simops was
called upon to pick up a flower
pot and hurl it at boarders retreat
ing from the stage. Miss Johnson,
one of the last to flee, was struck
just as she left the wings and
crumpled to the floor almost im

night that his office would con
duct a routine investigation as to
the possibility of foul play, but add
ed on the surface of things "This
looks to me like no more or less
than a terrible accident."
