C, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1966 Founded February 23, 1893 Jet Tr ansport Resumes After Runway Repair Jet traffic has returned to Rale,gh . purham airport aft er a massive repaying of the runways in 13 days. Jet pilots began landing on tne new runways Thursday and called them "the smooth est surfaces we've ever land ed on," according to W. C. uisen, chief engineer for the Pnect. The repaving project was planned after hairline cracks were discovered in the old portions of the runways which were built by the Army dur ing World War II. The repaving job, described as "unique" by Olsen, in volved the laying of 37,000 tons of asphalt. No single lo cal contractor was equipped to complete the job in a short time, so two paving contrac tors were awarded the con tract jointly. Commercial jet traffic was barred from the airport only 13 days, as a result of the fast work by the two companies. Total" costs for the repaying amount to about $280,000. To have built the runways new would have cost about two and one half million dollars, Olsen said. Jet traffic has increased to about eight flights per day at Raleigh - Durham. With the recent improvements, any jet used in the continental United States can be landed at the airport, according to Olsen. Ivan Sutherland Sutherland Will Talk Thursday On Computers Dr. Ivan E. Sutherland, one of the world's foremost ex perts in the field of computer graphics will speak on the U.N.C. campus, Thursday at 8:00 p.m. in Room 265 Phillips Hall. His talk will deal with the present state of computer graphics. This is the first in a series of lectures in the field of Com puters and Information Sci ence by nationally prominent speakers supplied by the As sociation for Computing Mach inery in its 1966-67 ACM Lec- tureship Series. Dr. Sutherland, who is pres ently at Harvard University, received his Ph.D from M.I.T. in 1963. His doctoral thesis set forth the method by which a user could draw pictures dir ectly into a computer and with the computer's aid could make and manipulate drawings. This method has had wide implications in many engineer ing and designing fields. For example, it allows auto de signers to change designs in stantaneously and to receive the engineering effects of their changes almost immediately The lecture series is spon sored locally by Central Carol ina and U.N.C. Student Chap ters of the Association for Computing Machinery in con- junction with The Department . J of Information science ana Computation Center at U.N.C. The dates and topics of future lectures will be announced at a later date. f . . . x 1 Death To The UP, UP AND AWAY: Commercial Jet serv ice returned to Raleigh-Dnrham Airport this week after repairs on the main runway were Columbiis In Again, Ruled Out By Pa. Judge FHHiADELPKIA (AP) After a year of outrage and research, Justice Michael A Musmanno of the Pennsyl vania Supreme Court tonight unveiled his case against Yale University's Vinland map. His conclusion: The map is a hoax; Chris topher Columbus did discover America, and there is nothing to show that Leif Ericson or Conversion Of Klan, Birchers Called For By KAREN FREEMAN DTH Staff Writer "We have played the harlot too long we have waited un til it is too late. . .It is now too late to integrate. "That leaves us with a seg regated church and with a clear call and mandate to minister to the Ku Klux Klan and the John Birch Society." So spoke Will Campbell, Di rector of the Committee of Southern Churchmen and member of the NAACP, to the Wesley Foundation Sun day about "Race and the Re newal of the Church: A Theo logical Critique of Black Power." Campbell has found that in race relations history, there are always two opposing groups: The New Negro" vs. those who claim that he will set race relations back 50 years. In the case of Stokely Car- michael and the Black Power movement. "It's iust nossible movement, "It's just possible that this time it's true." Other matters concern him more than the threat of the Black Power movement, how ever. "There simDlv are not enough Stoxeiy uarmicnaeis to mount a revolution, but apparently there are enough Maddoxes, Wallaces, and Rea gons to bring about a political revolution. . .in the finest democratic and Christian tradition." Since the "institutional structure of the church today is the greatest barrier to the proclamation of Christian doc trine," Campbell urges the abandonment of the losing battle for integration and the facing of a "new frontier" through a "sectarian notion of the Church." The new sect will bear the gospel to the Ku Klux Klan and the John Birch Society through the "simple phenom enon called conversion." Campbell took exception to President Johnson's advice to vwm 1 ruan members over nauun- wide television, "Get out of the Ku Klux Klan and back into decent society while there is still time," saying, completed. Propeller planes with deir shelt er runway requirements replaced the jets during the paving work. DTH Photo By Ernest H. Robl any other Norseman ever landed on this continent be fore 1492. Musmanno's rebuttal, in a book entitled "Columbus WAS First," was timed for release before the birthday of Colum bus Wednesday just as, he contends, Yale timed its an nouncement of the Vinland map last year for Columbus Day. If that doesn't ring of police state, I don't know what does." If the Klan is Christianized, Campbell admits that the hope of integration may not be extinct, but at the present time he sees "the new lep ers," the Klan and John Birch Society, as the only group to minister to. He feels that the work will have to be done through a Christian sect rather than the SDS, because the SDS isn't radical enough they have too modest an ap proach." The "prophet, pastor, and reconciler - at -large to the South," according to Anne Queen, director of UNC's YMCA, holds a Doctor of Divinity degree from Yale University. Spivak Plays r hlC kvPTIinff lllO t --B-JL-a-B- m Raul Spivak's Piano con cert in Hill Hall at 8 p.m. to night may make a memorial scholarship fund a reality for Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia. The fraternity has been try ing for five years to set up a fund in memory of James Michael Barham, its former vice-president who was fatally poisoned. Barham died inOctober, 1961 along with his Cobb dormitory roommate of cyanide poisoning. Their deaths are still a mystery. Since then, the fraternity has been staging benefit con certs. So far, however, they haven't gotten enough money to award a scholarship. They now hope to be able to begin awarding grants by next fall. Tickets will be on sale for .50 cents at the door or may be bought from any Phi Mu Alpha brother or pledge. Spivak, who was b o r n in Buenos Aires, is considered one of the most prominent musicians in Latin America. He has presented a series of television concerts and has recorded for RCA Victor. Irish Leif Of the Vinland map, Mus manno says: "No one knows who drew it, no one knows where it was drawn, no one will say where it comes from, and it shows on its face that it is a venus' flytrap strangl ing historical truth. Musmanno, son of an Italian immigrant and a trustee of the Italian Historical Society of America, details how calip ers in hand he checked the wormholes on which much of the Yale identification was based. "Only a determined con-J spiratorical determination to take away from Christopher Columbus the glory and match less heroism of his enterprise could have moved the propon ents of the Vinland map to as sign to five worms the task oi toppling the great Genoese navigator from his pedestal as the discover of America," says Musmanno. "I found when I studied the map that not only do the wormholes not coincide, but not one of the slithery worms was sufficiently interested in the Vinland map and the al leged two accompanying ma nuscripts to eat through the three documents, which would be the only way of proving the three documents were bound together at one time. "If a manuscript can be counterfeited, why not a wormhole?" The Vinland map, accord ing to Yale, was drawn about 1440 A.D. It is a map of the world, showing, in the upper left hand corner, an island designated "Vinland." This was the name given m norse sagas to a land reached by Leif Ericson and others in the 10th or 11th centuries. On the map it lies to the west and south of Greenland. Greenland is amazingly ac curate, but other points on the Vinland map are not, says Musmanno. He also says Greenland was not mapped accurately until around 1912. j Pep Rally j I Thursday j :g Bring your gongs, tin :$ Span, truck horns, anvthinff nln tl.. t ill l. l .V Llidl Will llia&C cIHJUgU $ racket to let Notre Dame gknow the Tar Heels are go- $ ing to hand them a heck &of a fight this weekend. $ Be at the Bis Fratpmifv Si Court at 7 p.m. Thursday $: where the cheerleaders will 8 ::: neaa tne second big rally ::: of the season at 7:30 p.m. gGrab the torches, and give gthe team, the coaches and S Ramses a send - off for send - off for $ victory this weekend at 8 U South Bend.

Pike said Monday. Speaking to an overflow crowd at the Duke University Law School, Pike described as nonsense the "general assump tion that if something is nau ghty there should be a law against it." . He said he is opposed to laws aimed at regulation of person al moral beliefs and practices which have no bearing on the public interest. Specifically, he called for re form of laws having to do with abortion and hoxxexual re lationships between consenting f adults. Both, he declared, are nobody's business, but the in dividuals concerned. Pike said his own state of California permits abortion in cases where the pregnancy poses a threat to the life and health of the mother. This has been interpreted to also include mental and emo tional health, he said, but some doctors who have ex tended it to include victims of rape and incest have lost their licenses. He said Roman Catholic cannon law, dating back for centuries, denies that there is any life until the fetus assert itself in the womb. Therefore, Pike said, birth control prac tices and early abortions can not be termed murder, as some Roman catholic leaders have charged. He chided those who have been concerned with the tak ing of life in cases of abortion, saying they have displayed no concern in cases of capital punishment and war. If the fetus does not have life until it asserts itself, ""abortion is nobody else's busi ness, he said. If life does exist from the moment of concep tion, the ethical pros and cons of each individual case must be weighed to determine whe ther an abortion is desirable, he continued. Pike, who has been charged with heresy said churches are too often "the taillights, not the headlights, of reform. "Seminaries are largely 17th century institutions training men for a 19th century min istry," he said.

Carlyle Sitterson told the student-faculty conference this weekend. Speaking before some 60 students, faculty members and administrators attending a conference on "The Role of Students in University Policy Making", Sitterson said that anyone on the campus is still able to express ideas to him with only a couple of day's notice. Sitterson stressed the ideal of an informality and highly personal quality relationship between students and faculty. "But the delemma of faculty members in the University to day is the multiple demands to teach, research and pub lish,'. he said. The panel discussion o n "The Student's Role in Aca demic Policy Making" heard views from students and fac ulty members. Student Body President Bob Powell said, -"Students in the University today are given a part in the judiciary, traffic scholarship; but they are still scholarship ;nbut they are still excluded from the policy mak ing concerning academics." Powell said the best learn- Briefs Election of officers and plans for the year will be in cluded on the agenda. YAF, a nationwide conserv ative political organization is the largest youth organization in the nation with almost 100, 000 members. All interested persons are urged to attend the meeting.

The sessions offer training and experience for any stu dent interested in obtaining an FCC "third class radio telephone operator permit with broadcast endorsement." George Grils, chief engi neer of the Radio, TV and mo tion Pictures, and Mel Smyre, chief WUNC studio engineer, will conduct the weekly cours es. .

"The cost has risen to the ing is self-motivated in con trast to the passive educa tional process which leads to boredom for students. Dr. J. C. Morrow said that when thingking about the student's role in academic po licy making, "it is most im portant not to overlook the role of the individual stu dent." Morrow questioned how much the University should idealize and forget the practi cal aspect of the problem. "In order to improve our present program, I feel that students should participate in more areas such as survey courses," Morrow said. Eric Van Loon, student body presidential assistant, gave four reasons for the need of student participation in academic policy making: ''This participation helps to determine to an extent the kind of education the student will get. "If a student does not get an education, it is he that will suffer and not the facuty member. "The student has a unique point of view to offer. "It is educative, because there is more to being edu cated than possessing facts." Dr. Rollie Tillman ques tioned the concern on the part of the students to parti cipate in the decision making of academics, in addition to the competence and continuity of such a program. "We first need to know the amount of concern about the program on the part of the student body, because not all students are capable of par ticipating in such a program," Tillman said. tew mk. h ... - Wd 503 CLASS secretary Alice Deemer says to keep Ce .j and bay y0Ur girl a mum for homecomia.

The Consolidated University is now asking the General As sembly for permission to bor row $30 million more bring ing the total of money borrow ed since 1955 to $85 million, he said. This is as much money as the University can borrow without pushing the cost of at tending the Consolidated Uni versity to a prohibitive level for some students, he said. "We at all times try to keep the University's doors and all doors open to qualified students who wish to improve themselves," he told the pan el of three newsmen. "But by increasing this load, we're pricing this out of the range of many students." Already, Friday said, eve ry self-help job and scholar ship that the University has is taken. The remaining expansion funds will have to be gotten from General Assembly ap propriations, Friday said. And if the General Assem bly doesn't appropriate the rest of the $180 million which Friday said he didn't expect they would the expansion plans will have to be tailored to fit the funds available, he told the panel. "We know that every dollar of that money could be spent in improving the four cam puses," he said, "but we also know that -that much money won't be provided." Friday said later in the pro gram that the University has stayed close to the people of North Carolina "who support it," instead of moving away from them as some people have charged. "The University touches hundreds of thousands of peo ple in a very direct way," he said, ": .. this is it's mis sion." Friday referred specifically to the work being done by Memorial Hospital and the Dental Clinic, and surveys and studies of coastal erosion, farming problems and small businesses. "I think the University is closer to vastly more people than before," he said. - 4 is
