Belgian Students Visit Campbell From their native country Just across the Straits of Dover, six Bel gian students and their gToup co ordinator, Eddy Janssens, arrived friday in Buies Creek for a two *eek visit at Campbell College. Their fortnight at Campbell will tie the first part of a one-month visit to the United States arranged through the Experiment in Inter national Living. Dressed in clothes heavier than late July allows in Eastern North Carolina, the young Belgians ex pressed surprise and a little dis comfort as the temperature rose in to the high eighties on the campus Friday morning. Janssens, the group coordinator, said that in his |ia tive country the temperature has not climbed so high during this entire year. The students will attend classes and participate in other college ac tivities at Campbell for two weeks. Then they will travel to Macon, Georgia, for study and enjoyment of American family life, where they will spend another two weeks in individual homes. The student travelers, their ages ranging from 19 to 22, are Robert Van Den Berghe of Bavegem, Marie Cristine De Witte of Baaigem, Jean Pierre Nolens of Hasselt, Ivo On kelinx of Landen, Catherine De Vestele of Bruges, and Monique Van der Vecken of Wetteren. Janssens, 28, is from Bree, Belgium. All of these young people, who are majoring in the humanities in their colleges at home, speak at least three languages. They used German to order up their first meal in Buies Creek - - from Riki Kolbl of Salzburg, Austria, who is a stu dent member of the Campbell cafe teria staff. Greeting new friends in English, chatting in Dutch, and ordering meals in Germa ndo not faze the Belgian students. Robert L. Newton, dean of the chapel, is serving as campus coord inator for the group during thdir stay at Campbell. Dean Newton has planned a sche dule of seminars with Campbell students, trips to universities and places of interest in the tri-angle area, and social occasions for the Belgians.

The Experiment arranges ex change visits for students all over the worll. The exchanges are sche duled throughout the summer and are programmed for visits to col leges and universities and short stays in homes in each of the coun tries. When asked his reasons for mak ing such a trip to America, Mr. ivo Onkelinx, a 21 year old law stu dent, said that he wished to learn about other ways of living and thinking. “I am convinced,” said Onkelinx, “that such exchanges are the best way to strengthen the bonds of friendship between the peoples of the world.’* The Belgians will leva eCampbell College on August 4.

Music rn and Magid^Sr THURSPAY SHOWS LAST “THE T-'i *FiWVf* f w TALK CONTINUES... .The only man who has worried Herbert Bon ner much in the past few years is Walter Jones of Farmville. Jones, now a legislator of some experience — terms In House and Senate — apparently wants Bonner out of the First District seat so he can get in. Bonner, now ill, doesn’t like this idea at all. Talk persists that Bonner may quit. If he does, will Qov. Moore appoint Jones? No, not with Bon ner’s blessings. Quite the contrary, it wood seem. If Bonner runs agan, Jones in all probability will be his opposition. Few men in the Nation have been in and about Congress as long as North Carolina’s Herbert Bonner He originally went there as admin istrative assistant to Lindsay War ren, succeeding his boss when War ren became Comptroller General under FDR. That puts hinl up there near the 40-year category. If Bonner should decide now he has had enough, he may be able to name his successor. If he should delay this decision . . . long en ough , . he may not have this choice. BIG DISTILLERS.Although not everybody liked the idea, the feel ing here was admiration for the honest approach Jerry Stockard and friends followed in their efforts to get approval for a home-owned dis tillery in North Carolina. But the Legislature — and the Governor *— didn’t go along with the bill; and so, after a long per iod of reasonably good health, it suffered sudden death. Odd, too, that this should hap pen in view of the fact that this -State — thanks to liquor store le gislation adopted bjr the 1963 and MWLegislatur,es —* aailfirtm the majority pf its population living Th legally wet counties, cities, and towns. tllMMJK While Gov. Moore did make state ments against the distilleries pro gram, they were mild, and the really big licks against it, we now find, came from a few name brand big distillers who knew that pat rlotic ‘Tarheels would turn, from the Imported variety tci'the North Car olina product. There is one distiller (Bowman) in Virginia. Relatively small, it is Situated in Fairfax County. Its chief brand is Virginia Gentleman. ABC people tell you this whiskey moves off the store shelves the fast est of any make sold in North Car olina. You frequently find —*■ for one reason or another — whiskey peo ple and ardent anti-whiskey people cuddled together in the same bed. IN NAME ONLY......Various In fluential members of the Appropria tions Committee in the recent Le gislature did not like the name, “Good Neighbor Council”, , the agency set up by Terry Sanford to foment peace between whites and Negroes in North Carolina. That may be one reason its ap propriation got badly short-circuit ed. But Governor Moore seems deter mined to keep the agency alive. We heard In the spring that he might prefer somebody elae — possibly a minister or religious lay leader — as director. It is understood the Governor likes 0. 6. Coltrarie, one of the few giants still living In the State, but has made casual search for a younger man suitable for the position.
