First Days Prove Hardest
For Navy Training Group
Football Stars and Battle Heroes
Meet on Common Ground at Carolina
By Jud Kinberg
Carolina gained a new student population last Thursday, com
pliments of the United States Navy- " v - . ;
It is a strange crew that has come aboard : men from Carolina,
Ole 'Miss, South Pacific warships and Parris Island training
grounds." 'But by Monday morning's eight o'clock classes, the men
were all bedded down and get
ting acquainted in the best Tar
Heel tradition. ; V.
For the majority of the 1,330
V-12 men it was the 3rst view of
South building, the Library, the
Porthole. For the old Carolina
men it was a return under vastly
different conditions. For all it
was a tough orientation problem,
but in a few days, all were Tar
Heels.
Leathernecks
In BVP and Smith are the
Leathernecks, a strong 300.
Among them are football stars
from southern colleges and a
large number of men ordered to
the college training program
from active duty. The twilight
bull sessions quickly smoothed
out the few differences and made
a cohesive unit of the Marines.
The only c6ntingent of all
Carolina men, the NROTC, drew
quarters in Old East and Old
West and an issue of cruise uni
forms until their khakis arrive.
It was a new life for these men
too, a life, where they wore their
uniform seven days instead of
two, drilled every day instead of
lina Times, a Negro newspaper
published in Durham.
Reverend Jones has partici
pated in previous CPU discus
sions on the Negro problem which
were held last year, while Dr.
Ericson is well known to the cam
pus for his activities on previous
panel groups.
"The subject for discussion
was chosen by the CPU since the
recent race riots have assumed
so much importance in national
affairs," said Lee Bronson, CPU
chairman j
After the panel proper the floor
will be open for questions from
feain War- Time
twice a week. ;
Largest group of the three is
the remaining V-12 students,
spread from Old East to Frater
nity Row and Whitehead dorm.
IT6 most of them this is entirely
new. They have been, students at
colleges or high schools, whose
' only contact with the Navy would
have been the post-graduation
four months that made them 120
day wonders. Now Navy rules
and tradition will govern their
lives ; the Navy will take over the
job of turning them into deck
officers and specialists to man
America's fleet from the time
they enter college.
For all there was the Navy
"bible" and regulations : "Salute
all officers and instructors . . .
smoking and eating in public are
prohibited . . . drinking and
gambling at all times are pro
hibited ... all lights must be out
by 2300 . . ." Summary Court
Martial is the big stick in the
serious offenses.

the audience.
Miss Bronson,
"Everyone," said
"is invited to at-
tend."
On Friday night, the CPU will
hold its regular meeting in the
Grail room of Graham Memorial
at 9 o'clock. This meeting will be
open to all members and any in
terested persons who wish to at
tend. Subject under discussion
will be the . Poll Tax ' question
which is still pending in congress.
At the CPU meeting last week,
the Union discussed the candi
dates who have announced them
selves for the coming Guberna
torial race in North Carolina.

I Wo ollen Gymi Still Able
To Handle All Groups
Male Undergraduates' Executive Councilmen
Continue Activity To Improve Conditions Here
The University's physical education department killed all rumors
concerning cancellation of civilian activity for the remainder of this
session with a flat denial by director Dick Jamerson late last night.
"Physical education," he said, "will continue as usual for the rest
of the first term, and for the second term. Intramural contests, as
well, will be scheduled through these periods."
The statement,, coming when the majority of civilians had as
sumed phys ed classes would end this week, corrected a rumor which
may have had its origin through the supposed need for coordination
of Navy V-12 and civilian programs.
Answering questions posed by the Old Guard, male undergradu
ate civilian organization, Jamerson said that "the gymnasium and
all other facilities are available for all students as usual." The Di
rector said that there is no differentiation between civilian and re
servist use of the facilities, and welcomed participation by any group.
"There are no more students here now than there were during
the winter quarter," Jamerson told the Tar Heel, "this includes
civilians, V-12 and Pre-Flight. Therefore, space, equipment and
teaching staff is still able to give all an adequate physical education
program."
Mott Blair, president of the Executive Cabinet, said, "Civilian
Students not only want Physical Education as they are privileged
to have, but also they want it at times convenient for them. This
applies especially to use of the swimming pool."
Since the beginning of the Summer Session the Civilian Male
Undergraduates have been organized. Begun at a meeting called
last Spring by Dean of Men Roland B. Parker, the whole group is
now governed by an Executive Cabinet run along Parliamentary
lines with Mott Blair as President and Jimmy Wallace as Vice
president. Faced with the great problem of overcrowded eating facilities
the Old Guard has discussed the possibility of recommending to
the Graham Memorial board of directors that the Grill be restricted
to the use of Civilian Students. Numerous complaints have been
filed with the Cabinet suggesting that crowded conditions could
partially be alleviated in this way.
Summer Dance
At present the Old Guard is planning to present a dance jointly
with the Summer School Activities Committee headed by Miss Nell
Barefoot. This dance which is the regularly scheduled Summer
School Ball will be presented Friday, July 16 in Woollen gym
nasium. As yet no definite arrangements have been made about an
orchestra, but negotiations are now under way to hire Johnny Sat
terfield and his band.
The dance will be open, according to current plans, to all Civilian
students, although coeds may bring a guest in uniform at their
discretion.
Since the Tar Heel no longer comes out daily the Civilians have
procured the use of bulletin boards in the YMCA and Graham

Student Council Releases
Facts In Honor Court Case
At regular intervals the Stu
dent Council will publish reports
of cases that have been tried and
acted upon. Every student is
strongly urged to read these re
ports in order to familiarize him
self with the workings of the
council and the Honor System.
At present the Student Council
is made iip of four Navy V-12
representatives, two representa
tives from the Marines, and four
civilian students. All cases of
violations are turned over to this
body for trial. In the case of civi
lian students the decision of the
Council is final. Wherever any
member of the V-12 program has
been tried, the decision is subject
to the approval of Captain W. S.
Popham, Commandant of the U.
S. Navy Training Unit.
Violations of the Honor System
consist of lying, cheating, or
stealing. Below is given a case
tried this past year:
To
'OW
Case I
Facts : A transfer student from
a military school was suspected
of violating the honor system on
physics course by a number of
fellow classmates. After ob
serving him cheating on a num
ber of quizzes, they turned the
case over to the student council.
After three hours of continuous
questions the offender still de
nied his guilt.
Decision and Opinion: He be
suspended from school and denied
credit for that course and a let
ter be sent to his college in regard
to his offense. After the sen
tence was announced, this student
said he would admit his guilt if
the council would lighten its pen
alty. For the benefit of all new stu
dents, there is one thing that the
council cannot tolerate and that
is lying. It is our objective to help
not to harm ; you shoot straight
and the council will do likewise.
