Henry Royall i of Chapel Hill, a retired Army of- I fleer, told the Sanford Traffic Club last nightgtgnet Club that, in his opinion, the con troversial North Carolina Com munist speaker ban law was fully justified. Colonel Royall said he hoped the law will continue on the law books. He cited the fact that similar laws are in effect in California and Ohio and are stringently en forced. “They are not looking for the loop holes like they are in this state,” said the speaker. “An unsavory traffic in the minds of young people,” he told the club members “prompted the passage of such a law.” Colonel Royall, who is a graduate of the U. S. Military Academy, also en rolled in the University of North Carolina from 1947 to 1982. A native of Smithfleld, he now re sides in Chapel BUI. The speaker described what he termed the “persuasive tactics of the Subversive elements in and around the University. Royall claimed that representatives of Communist - front organizations and what he described as “far left’’ groups are concerned with “latching on to the minds of tin suspecting young people.” He cited such groups as the Student Peace Union. He noted that a group of students from that organization defied a State Department order and visited Cuba and said on their return, some of this same group spoke in the Chapel Hill-Durham area and pre sented slides and pictures made In Communist Cuba. The speaker who is devoting much time and attention to what he calls 'the “expose of the Com munist threat” cited that certain ly two known Communists—Jun ius Scales and Hans Preistadt— got their start at the University of North Carolina. Royall said 'that the speaker ban law, which he helped draft, was the best legal answer to the problem. He also expressed the wish that the University would return to the loyalty oath which was once lequired of all professors if they had ever been a member of the Communist party or taken the 5th Amendment before any Congressional investigating com mittees. “I do not think we should fur nish a platform paid for by our tax payers for Communist speak ers, regardless of their merits or accomplishments,” said Royall. Charles McBryde introduced Col. Royall. Frank Gilliam presided. Around 30 attended. Announce ment was made that the club’s an nual Christmas party Will be bald on December 16.
