Turtle Takes Over
Third Floor Kenan
The latest information received
in the Tar Heel office by the paper's
Kenan correspondent has a turtle
more or less ruling the roost these
days. v
It all started this way: A certain
young Marine, while traveling up
New. York way, . became attached
to a little turtle. Just for the
novelty of the thing he . sent the
amphib to a certain little Carolina
coed who lives on third floor Kenan.
Since, his arrival amidst the' fe
male lair he has been the object of
V considerable amount "of'" atten-"
tion. The girls have secured ham
burger meat for his daily diet. We
failed to find out whether or not
new inhabitant likes his menu, but
the girls seem to think he will get
along all right.
There is one peculiar 'character
istic about this particular turtle . . .
he is never satisfied to stay in the
same room two nights in succes
sion. This traveling turtle takes
turns taking naps in various rooms
of third floor Kenan. This cute little
animal mammal or something has
been a constant worry of some of
the local gobs who find that the
turtle is getting just a little more
attention than is necessary.

Arts And Crafts Workshop To Be Established Here
Designed to meet the increasing
need for therapeutic workers in cen
ters now being set up in Army camps,
such as the one at Camp Butner, a
special studio workshop in arts and
crafts has just been established by the
Art department here.
The course will include silver-smithing,
copper-smithing, jewelry design,
enamelling, block printing, . batik,
sculpture and modelling, leather work
ing and tool-making for these crafts,
said Prof. Kenneth Ness, acting Head
of the Department.
The course will be given in the Per
son Hall Art Gallery by Stephen Hop
kins Walker, artist-craftsman, of
Washington, D. C. Mr. Walker was
formerly Zoo Sculptor in Washington;
instructor in teacher - training in
sculpture and allied arts, University
of Virginia; and director of art, Fair
fax County, Virginia. Last year he
was teaching principal of reorienta
tion classes for problem boys in the
Washington Public School system. He
is an artist as well as a teacher, being
represented in the Phillips Memorial
Gallery in Washington and other col
lections. He was a pupil of the famous
Russian sculptor, Alexander Archi
penko, in ceramics and sculpture; and
studied with the Danish craftsmen,
Lauritz Eichner and Adda Husted-An-dersen,
two of the world's leading
silversmiths.
Certificates .
All members of the class will be eli
gible for certificates upon satisfactory
completion of the work, the announce
ment said. Credit on degrees can be
obtained by education, sociology and
other students in the University suc
cessfully completing the course.
Classes begin Monday, March 19,
at 7 p.m. and will continue on Mon
days, Wednesdays and Fridays from
7 to 10 p.m. through June 16. Regis
tration closes on Saturday, March 17.
Full information may be obtained at
the Art Department of the University.
"People with an eye for beauty and
a wish to 'make something for them
selves' will have an opportunity to. de
velop their talents in this workshop,
Professor Ness said. "They can make
pins, brooches, rings and other jewelry.
Tie-dyed batik materials, leather
work and block prints that can be used
will be made while learning practical
working methods.
"Those with a professional interest
in learning the methods so as to later
help others find pleasure in, making
useful things can consider future pos
sibilities in rehabilitation work. Re
habilitation programs are stressing
the crafts because they provide emo
tional release and coordination in the
use of the hands. Men are given the
opportunity of acquiring new skill
through which to earn a living.
"The rehabilitation program at
Camp Butner is now being organized.
Within the next few months there will
be need for .hundreds of therapeutic
aides in various regions. Those train
ed to teach the crafts will be in great
demand."
