Scope of UNC Morale Program
Will Include State Agencies
Coordinator Grumman Adds Schools,
Civic Clubs, Libraries to Program
Civilian morale already covering every facility of the Univer
sity enlarged its borders yesterday afternoon when Russell M,
Grumman, coordinator, called in a dozen state agencies and hun
dreds of local schools, libraries and civic clubs, skyrocketing the
movement in the state press, and increasing its influence.
g In developing and conducting the
service, urumman said tnat "close co
operative relationships" will be main
tained with the State Department of
Public Instruction, the North Caro
lina College Conference, the State Ci
vilian Defense Council, the State Li
brary Commission and colleges, de
fense councils, and organizations in
the various municipalities.
When the present plan is .worked
out, observers believe it will pave the
way for Dr. Ralph' McDonald's crea
tion of forums, round tables and in
stitutes throughout the state. Particu
lar significance has been attached to
yesterday's action because officials
"expect the local groups to act as
sDonsonnsr organizations to Drine
representatives from Chapel Hill."
Emphasizing the determination of
the committee to keep the entire proj
ect "on a democratic basis of free dis-
cussion," tne coordinator promisea
that the individual town clubs would
choose their own speakers and their
own topic. "All information on either
side of the question" will be available
at the special library here.
The eight-man advisory board, in
statement to the faculty prepared by
Morale Chieftain Grumman, defined
the principal function of the center as
"furnishing information and training
necessary to public discussion and un
derstanding of the issues and prob
lems of national defense," with the
general purpose to "build morale and
unity based on enlightenment not
propaganda."

Fete Faculty
One in a long series of social meet
ings to further student-faculty rela
tions, and part of the program to re

given at the Chi Phi house on Thurs

party continues its week-end run to
night with a banquet in Lenoir dining
hall and a dance in Graham Memorial

Dr. E. E. Ericson, professor in the
English department,vwill be the speak

Approximately 80 girls have taken

campus talent. . . ..
The dance tonight will be given to
the music of Johnny Satterfield.

Further extension of coed hours was
obtained late yesterday as Dean House

2 o'clock on Friday nights, 1 o'clock
on Saturday nights, and 12 o'clock on
Sunday nights.
Jointly-proposed by the Interfrater
nity council and the Woman's associa

committee composed of Mrs. Stacy,
coed adviser, Miss Mary Caldwell,
president of the WA, John Thorp,
president of the Interfraternity Coun

UNC Football
Scholarships
Still Mystery
Sports Editor Wade
Terms His Source
As 'Confidential'
Befogged under a haze of official
silence and misinformation, the alleged
movement for establishment of 50
football scholarships for the Universi
ty remains hidden under a cloud of di
verse rumors.
With "high" sources vying for the
position of most reticent, little fact
has seeped through. Jake Wade, Sports
Editor of the Charlotte Observer and
Carolina alumnus, first sprang the
story that an effort to raise $50,000
for athletic scholarships was under
way. In a telegram to the Daily Tar
Heel, Wade said: "Source confidential.
Something definitely cooking if they
can get it through."
An article in the Charlotte Observ
er Thursday morning asserted that an
alumni meetinsr will be held in the
Carolina Inn tomorrow at 4 o'clock to
discuss the plan. No reservations have
been made at the Inn.
When questioned, Maryon Saunders,
president of the Alumni Association,
said "I know nothing of the movement.
All I know is what I read in the pa
pers." Several officials expressed the opin
ion that Wade was merely "making
news" when he published this story.
All officials in the Administration
claimed ignorance of the plan. Opin
ion is, however, that President Gra

would lose a sizeable portion of- their
income, and "many of them would
find it virtually impossible to continue
at the University."
Preliminary plans of the newly ap
pointed committee would call for the
collection of some percentage of the
$8,300 through appeals to campus or
ganizations and individual students, it
was explained. It was expected that
once the students took the initiative
and raised a part of the money they
would appeal to alumni of the Univer
sity for the remainder of the funds.
J. Maryon Saunders, executive di
rector oi tne Alumni association re
marked yesterday that once the stu
dents took the initiative, "the idea
might become exceedingly appealing
to the alumni."
