Former Tar

By BLAKE GREEN
"The suspension of the Duke
Chronicle was an inviolate of the
principles of free press set up bv
the National StiifU
at its congress last summer," said
Curtis Cans, national affairs pres
ident of NSA, yesterday.
During his visit to the uni
versity, the former Daily Tar
Heel editor expounded on his
views on the suspension of the
Chronicle and the NSA's policy
behind such actions.
According to Cans, the resolu
tion concerning student newspa
pers passed at the NSA Congress
last summer states that the edi
tor of the newspaper is responsi
ble for what articles are printed in
the paper and cannot be removed
unless he- violates the rules of
libel, fails to put out the news

sponsibility by refusing lo print !

probably wouldn't have published

About 750,000 approximately the same number that cheered Eis

"I assure you that the welcome

I hope that the discussions I will

Eisenhower had spoken similar

U.S. aid. Speaking to Parlaiment,
he praised Iran for joining other
non-communist nations in alliance
against Communist aggression.
"I know I speak for the Ameri

proud to count so valiant a nation
as a partner," Eisenhower said.
Eisenhower conferred with

The first convention of the North

preliminary plans for the program,
which will concern such areas as

Miss Marie Johnson of Queens
College, Chalotte, is chairman pro

Mrs. Eugene Johnston, Moores

The group is part of the Music

of the oldest and strongest organ
izations for music teachers and
students, founded in 1R76 by Theo

"Dr. Edens had neither the
right to ban the Chronicle nor to
fire Andrews and Cohen. If An
drews hadn't allowed criticism of
his paper, a student faculty com
mittee might h?ve had a right to
review his qualifications.
"But," continued Gans, "An
drews was seeking to stimulate
opinion and provoke criticism.
I don't believe in iconoclasm for
iconcclasm sake, which this was,
but I do feel very strongly that
Edens' actions were a violation
of the resolution, and I con
sider Andrews one of the best
Chronicle editors in the past
five years."
W'ade Hargrove has been' select

In addition Hargrove will make'
use of the UNC, Duke University
and State College News Bureaus
as well as a staff of local report
ers covering the campus.
WUNC News Director John
Moore describes the new setup
as "affording a more compre
hensive coverage of all news as
well as making a better, more
interesting presentation."
Pack Mayo, WUNC station man
ager announced Monday that the
position of national and interna
tional news editor and news cast
er was still Open.
"We are looking for someone
with the necessary background in
news reporting who can compile
a comprehensive summary of im
portant news events as they hap
pen. This person must have a per
ception for news as well as a plea
sant delivery on the air," he said.
Mayo urged any student inter
ested in the new position to con
tact him at the WUNC offices in
the basement of Swain Hall any
afternoon Monday through Friday
3-5 p.m.
For the immediate future the
old system of having one an
nouncer compile and edit the
news will be used. But the new
system will go into effect when
WUNC expands into an AM op
eration on the campus.
This additional coverage on the
UNC campus on the AM band
will give WUNC AM and WUNC
FM a potential audience of over
50,000 people.
Two hospitals and a first aid
station said 8 of the 43 injured
required hospitalization. There
were no deaths.
Eisenhower learned of the ac
cident when he arrived at the pal
ace, where he is spending the
night as King Paul's guest. The
President expressed sympathy and
asked that his regret be extended
to the victims and. their families.
It was the first incident to mar
the President's trip to 11 coun
tries, of which Greece is the sev
enth. Eisenhower flew in at dusk near
the end of a Urine 22-hour dav
that began with a farewell to In
dia. He got in two one-hour naps
on the big jet airliner, however,
and looked fresh when he landed
in Athens.
He flashed his famous grin
and waved in response to the
cheers of the housands who
came out in the chill and mist
to line airport to palace.
In response to a call from Pre
mier Constantine Karamanlis, the
Greeks turned out to show their
gratitude to the United States for
the military aid that helped stamp
out a Communist rebellion in the
l.Ws and has since built up
Greece as an ally in the Western
Alliance.

Draws Scant
Class Interest
Although interviews are in pro
gress now for the selection of
members of the Sophomore Cab
inet little interest has been re
ported in the organization.
Similar to the Freshman Cab
inet organized by Jay Fiefell last
year, the purposes of this new
cabinet are to propose plans for
the general benefit of the Sopho

development of the scholarship
fund established by last year's of
ficers of all four classes.
George Campbell, sophomore
class president, announced that
interviews will be again today in
the Grail Room, 1-2:30 p.m.
In Athens a line of 20 motor
cars, escorted by motorcycle po
lice, traveled from Ellenikon
Airport down a six-lane high
way to the arch built by the
R'man Emperor Hadrian in the
second century at the entrance
of Athens proper.
Crowds packed all along the
way cheered and tossed flowers.
In the distance loomed the Acrop
olis, ancient Athens' fortified hill,
i and the ruins of the 2.40O-ve3r-
old Parthenon.
At the Hadrian Arch, a mounted
escort took over the motorcade.
j Six buglers on brown horses pro

Then the President took a two
