AYCOCK: A COMMUNIST KILLED JFK It is traditional that American people admire, respect and love their President, whoever he may be or whatever their differences id politics or political philosophy. The bitterest political opponents often are th very closest personal friends.. Every decent, loyal American citizen respects the office of Pre sident and the man who holds that office. It is strange, therefore, in fact, amazing, that some of the left wing, ultra liberals today ate blaming the tragic assassination of President Kennedy on what they call "hatred^ bigotry and bitterness” among the American people. Nothing could be further from the truth. KILLED BY COMMUNISTS Ml available lacts clearly show that *Our President was killed not ‘bp. a..

STRONG PARALLEL Isn’t Oswald’s position on Cuba exactly the one taken by Larry Phelps, a recent graduate of the University of North Carolina who during the past summer defied the President of the United States and the State Department and went to Cuba as the guest of Fidel Castro? Phelps, you may recall, is the same Communist sympathizer who just a few weeks ago was allowed by Chancellor William B. Aycock to speak "informally” in a dormi tory at UNC. Though he reported ly spoke for about two hours to a group of nearly 200 students, Mr. Aycock excused it on the grounds that it was an “informal” (Continued On Page Five) :ret door in his father’s desk makes a wonderful playhouse for e little hoy, just no* turning three, comes into the President’s office when most people have gone home.

C-Oeiecfive Division - - * Lillington Man Tel Is Risks Of Guarding Our Presidents It is almost humanly impossible to prevent the President from be ing assassinated if the assassins want to get to him, said a man who spent nearly 30 years seeing to it that they did not. “The President likes to see the people; and the people like to see the President,’’ said Howl D. Secrest, retired chief of the de tective division, Metropolitan Po lice of Washington, D. C., when pressed for a comment on the tragic death of President Kennedy from a sniper’s bullet in Texas. Secrest was among the few North Carolinians who could ac tually visualize what was happen ing in Washington when news of the President’s death stunned the capital. Secrest was one of the four men detailed on that April, 12, 1945 to leave their accustomed places at the White House and elsewhere to accompany Harry Truman, then vice - president on that his toric day 18 years ago that saw him succeed Franklin Delano Roosevelt as president. As chief of the detective divi sion of the Metropolitan Police, Secrest was responsible for the safety of the President, the vice president and all foreign diplo mats and visiting statesmen while in the District of Columbia. He was among the men who met the body of President Roosevelt at Union Station in Washington. He was present when Truman was sworn in as President and re mained beside him that historic day. V Secrest absolutely declined any comment whatever on protection measures taken in Dallas for the President. Hdwever,, he noted that the Secret Service With which the division he headed worked closely, always goes over every foot of a route any President will travel. He pointed out that automobile travel always presents safety ha zards. In the old days in Wash ing, the President was always met at the train or airport by a car. Now to Washington the practice is to use a helicopter. “Much sa fer, much faster,” Secrest obser ved, but noted that it is not the kind of vehicle Presidents like to use in touring. The fact that the driver of the president's call knew where to turn immediately to the hospital v.as a sample of the minute ad vance planning that goes into a presidential visit, Secrest noted. Asked if he had ever been pre sent when a shot was fired at a (Continued on Page Five Strip Operator Killed Oswald Sex Dealer Faces Trial For Murder DALLAS (UPI) — Jack Ruby a Chicago street brawler, wanted the big time and came to Dallas to make is as a realer in legal sex. He had a record as a tighter, a bouncer in his own clubs, a fast man with his fists who occasion ally got picked up on charges of carrying a concealed weapon. But none of his friends ever thought of him in the role he cast for himself — avenger of the martyred Presi dent. “You son of a bitch,” Ruby shouted at the manacled Oswald as he stepped up to him. He fired once with a 38-caliber snub-nosed pistol held four inches from the 24-year-old Oswald’s chest. (Continued on Page Five) Who'll Be Merrie Christmas?
