only member ■ of the group
speaking fluent English.
The group exchanged.school
pennants with NCC and were
given a general tour of the cam
pus.
Before coming to Chapel Hill
and Durham, the group had
visited San Juan, Puerto Rico;

The delegation is in the
United States to visit universi

they have contacted student
organizations, including NCC’s
NAACP and the National Stu
dent Association.
The group also visited indus

acquainted with labor-manage-
ment-relations, farm programs,
and diverse aspects of U.S. life
and culture.

Baker said that according to
releases from the convention
corfimittee, this is expected to
be the largest convention ever
held in the state.
“It is expected to draw the
largest group of militant and
dynamic civil rights leaders ever
to visit tho state,” he said. •
The NCC students will stay in

ship of a rightful inheritance.
TODAY, the young genera
tion of Negroes no longer look
at the world of entertainment
as a gate of transition which
will take them away from pov
erty and depravity. TODAY
they are dissatisfied with dou
ble-meaning signs of fair em
ployment opportunities. TODAY
they are tired of hearing ^he
words of “unqualified Negroes”
used as excuses. It is with this
purpose that they attempt to let
no one forget their motives-to
be nothing short of a man. The
motives are understood by most
people but very few realize that
they are part and parcel a sepa
rate ideology as compared to a
great many of their fore fathers.
This new generation has become
engulfed with the spirit of com
plete freedom or nothing.
In their struggles for dignity
and respect, the Negroes have
found that it is necessary to
take uncompromising stands.
Why use valuable time trying to
communicate with one who
turns his deaf ears towards you?

In addition. Dean Latham said
the findings will first go to the
women’s steering committee,
second to the Dean of Women,
next the Dean of Students, then
to the President, and could go
as far as the state legislature.
The present rules according
to Dean Latham, was adopted in
concurrence with the aims and
objectives of the college.
Dean Latham said the present
rules would allow them to at
tend “bonafide eating places”
which serve beer. She mention
ed the College Inn Ice Cream
Bar, College Plaza Bowling
Lanes and the Ranch House in
Chapel Hill.
Though NCC, co-eds are pres
ently allowed to frequent places
serving beer, the present rules
will not allow them to visit
places known for selling and al
lowing hard liquor^ to be con
sumed therein.

er in making them aware that
mere words are worthless un
less given an avenue for ex
pression. They know that as
long as the Negro is still re
legated to the role of bowing
and scratching and scrapping for
everything that he desires, these
separate lines will continue to
exist. One who asks for ap
peasements places himself in a
subservient position. But as soon
as he begins to demand his share
on firm bases he gains rightful
respect. Therefore, they ap
proach without feelings of senti
ment those who stand in opposi
tion to their justifiable aims.
Tne new generation wants
America to know that they are
her products and that they will
not forsake her, nor will they be
forsaken by her. Every cog of
human relations will be turned
over and over again. Uncivil and
bias attitudes will not blind
them as they endeavor to un
shackle her bonds of ignorance,
misconceptions, frustrations, and
prejudices. Their goal is to chan
nel America into a harmonious
state whereby every man will
be able to stand side by side
and watch each other progress
according to his efforts and
ability. It is for this reason that
they dedicate themselves, to be
leaders guided by national prin
ciples. - ■ ’
With continuous persistence
and hard work they shall show
to all America that she is still
the land of the, l?rave and home
of the free.

THE DEAN YOU SAVE MAY BE YOUR OWN
Colleges are complicated and bewildering places, filled with
complicated and bewildering people. Today let us examine
one of the most complicated and bewildering—yet fetching and
lovable—of all campus figures. I refer, of course, to the dean
of students.
Policeman and confessor, shepherd and seer, warden and
oracle, proconsul and pal—the dean of students is all of these.
How, then, can we understand him? Well sir, perhaps the best
way is to take an average day in the life of an average dean.
Here, for example, is what happened last Thursday to Dean
Killjoy N. Damper of the Duluth College of Belles Lettres
and Pemmican.
At 6 a.m. he woke, dressed, lit a Marlboro, and went up on
the roof of his house to remove the statue of the Founder
which had been placed there during the night by high-
spirited undergraduates.
MWtl. ittr-dc.
At 7 a.m. he lit a Marlboro and walked briskly to the cam
pus. (The Dean had not been driving his car since it had been
placed on the roof of the girls dormitory by high-spirited
undergraduates.)
At 7:45 a.m. he arrived on campus, lit a Marlboro and
climbed the bell tower to remove his secretary who had been
placed there during the night by high-spirited undergraduates.
At 8 a.m. he reached his office, lit a Marlboro, and met with
E. Pluribus Ewbank, editor of the student newspaper. Young
Ewbank had been writing a series of editorials urging the
United States to annex Canada. When the editorials had
evoked no response, he had taken matters into his own hands.
Accompanied by his society editor and two proofrea,ders, he
had gone over the border and conquered Manitoba. With great
patience and several Marlboro Cigarettes, the Dean persuaded
young Ewbank to give Manitoba back. Young Ewbank, how
ever', insisted on keet>ing Winnipeg. ‘
At 9 a.m. the Dean lit a Marlboro and met with Robert
Penn Sig’afoos, president of the local Sigma Chi chapter, who
came to report that the Deke house had been put on top of
the Sigma Chi house during the night by high-spirited under
graduates.
At 10 a.m. the Dean lit a Marlboro and went to umpire
an intramural softball game on the roof of the law school
where the ■ campus baseWl diamond had been placed during
the night by high-spirited undergraduates.
At 12 noon the Dean had a luocheon meeting with the
prexy, the bursar, and the registrar, at the bottom of the cam
pus swimming pool where the faculty dining room had been
placed during the niglit by high-spirited undergradua^.
Marlboros were passed after, luncheon, but not lighted, owing
to dampness.
At 2 p.m., back in his office, the Dean lit a Marlboro and
received the Canadian Minister of War who said unless young
Ewbank gave back Winnipeg, the Canadian army would march
against the U.S. immediately. Young Ewbank was summoned
and agreed to give back Winnipeg if he could have Moose Jaw.
The Canadian Minister of War at first refused, but finally con
sented after young Ewbank placed him on the roof of the
metallurgy building.
At 3 p.m. the Dean lit a Marlboro and met with a dele^
tion from the student council who came to present him_ with
a set of matched luggage in honor* of his fifty years’ service as
dean of students. The l5ean promptly packed the luggage with
all his clothing and fled to Utica, New York, where he is now
in the aluminum siding game. ©loss mm shuimm

claim that Marlboro is the dean of filter cigarettes—but it’s
sure at the head of the class. Settle back with a Marlboro
