When things look bad he's magnificent. England's concentrated bravery is terrific.

The Number Two Public Enemy on the Gestapo's list described the concentration camps and ghettoes he had seen, the cattle-car massacres of which he had learned. "I've seen too much. I, as a Christian, feel terribly ashamed of the ghettos, the nauseat ing brutaliy, that exist in the year of our Lord 1942.

He received the SP nom ination late in the winter quarter. Editors Call Meeting i The meeting, called by editors Henry Moll, Sylvan Meyer and Harley Moore, was announced for the purpose of approving the first proofs of the forthcoming and newly installed "Ba by-Esquire" magazine. Approved by the majority of the staff, dissension from the minority of "literary men" occurred when they criticized the pic ture on the cover and a photographic spread "on the first few pages as of "too revolutionary and debatable a nature." A satire "Miami Highway 321 Over Our Heads" on the three stories in the old Carolina Mag that have been called "sexy" this year was also accused of "being in bad taste." Shortly after the debate, a vote was called and the remaining members of the staff unanimously voted to "cease working for a completely literary mag azine." This essentially means a self- abolition of the literary Carolina Mag bv its members who stated they "will refuse to work for the old Mag." Distribution Tomorrow- Moll, Moore and Meyer last night stated that they "fully supported the action" and will continue to work on the proofs of the "Baby-Esquire" so that it may be ready for distribution tomorrow unless any action is taken against it. The ceasing of hostilities and sur prising action of "self -abolition" on the part of the Mag staff are new and cli matic angles to the old Carolina Mag Tar an' Feathers feud.

AP Book Editor, John Selby, To Vacation Here John Selby of New York, Arts and Book Editor of the Associated Press, and Mrs. Selby have just arrived in Chapel Hill and will be here for a month. It is a vacation for both of them, but Selby, already the author of two novels, plans to finish his third book while here. He plans to work pretty hard mornings and take things easy the rest of the day. They are staying at No. 30, Caro lina Inn Apartments. Mrs. Selby is seeing the University Village for the first time, but it is not Mr. Selby's first visit to Chapel Hill, and that, he said, is why he is here now. His last visit was to cover the South ern Drama Conference several years ago. "I was here for several days then and fell in love with the place," he ex plained today when asked why he had chosen Chapel Hill for a vacation-work spot. "But who wouldn't fall in love with this place!" he exclaimed. "I can't imagine a place more suitable for a combined work-rest program." . Selby is a native of Missouri, and Mrs. Selby, who was the former Miss Estey Baxter, is a native of Kansas. Selby's novels deal chiefly with fam ily life and are drawn largely from people he has known. His first book, "Sam," published several years ago, brought him a $1,000 prize in an inter national contest. It has since been pub lished in England, Italy and Brazil.
