Asks for Faculty Men
The Publications Board has ratified
DTH Editor Bill . Woestendiek's ap

Turned Away
the necessary funds to educate civili
ans into efficient fighting men. It is
just as logical for the Federal Govern
ment to provide the necessary funds to
re-educate these fighting men into
healthy, happy, elfective citizens. It is
morally sound. It is economically
sound. It will cost a great deal of
money to do it. But not to do it, may
cost a great deal more than money.
"Every veteran on the three cam
puses of the consolidated University
is costing the State of North Carolina
$200-$250 a year, despite the vast
amounts of money that are being con
tributed by the Federal Government.'!
Controller Carmichael pointed out
that in 1941, the peak year for college
enrolments in North Carolina, "there
were 31,500 students in our institutions
of higher learning: 26,500 were whites
and 5,000 were Negroes. Approximate
ly 52 percent of the 31,500 were men
and 48 precent were women.

The NROTC will continue to offer
courses in naval science and tactics
during the summer, Captain Donald
W. Loomis announced, with approxi
mately 20 students taking courses to
receive a degree and commission in
the Naval Reserve.
Beginning next September, he said,
the NROTC will offer courses under
either the "Holloway Plan" which is
now before Congress or under the
former peacetime NROTC regula
tions. The Holloway Plan
Recommendations made by the Hol
loway Board, which were favorably
reported out of the House Naval Af
fairs Committee, are now before Con
gress. If the plan wins?. Congressional
approval, students will be selected for
the NROTC program by a competi
tive examination given throughout
the country. Those appointed under
the program will receive all tuition
and fees plus $50 per month during
their four years' college training, but
they must arrange for entrance into
the college of their choice and room
accommodations after their arrival.
Those who successfully complete
the required naval science subjects,
Captain Loomis said, as well as those
subjects for a baccalaureate degree,
will receive a commission. They are
obliged to serve 15 months' active
duty with the fleet after which time
they may return to civilian life with
a reserve commission or they may
apply for a commission in the regular
Navy.
Students under either the Holloway
Plan or the peacetime program in ef
fect before the war would be under
Navy control only during attendance
at naval classes and drills and would
not be required to wear uniforms ex
cept during drill periods.
All Marines Leave
Captain Robert E. Brown, in charge
of the Marines, said that &5 men in
this unit will be sent to various bases
for commissioning as lieutenants. The
remaining 50 will be discharged at
Camp Lejeune the middle of June. Al
most "400 members of the corps have
received training here.
Captain Brown, third commanding
officer which the unit has had since
its formation here, is to be trans
ferred to San Diego, Calif., where he
will attend sea school for two months,
after which he will be given sea duty.
His family is living in Oberlin, Ohio.
Other leaders of the Marine Corps
group here have been Major James
Marshall, who opened the unit, and
Captain Preston S. Marchant.
Local Group Proposes
War Memorial Fund
The Chapel Hill Chapter of Ameri
cans United for World Organization
has offered to sponser the establish
ment of a war memorial fund to be
used to bring to Chapel Hill each year
a distinguished lecturer on some phase
of continuing problems of world or
ganization and lasting peace.
The Chapter, represented by Dr. J.
B. Bullitt, Preston C. Farrar, and Mrs.
Russell M. Grumman, in an open let
ter in the Chapel Hill Weekly re
cently asked for suggestions for an
appropriate way to "honor the young
men of this community who gave their
lives that civilization might live and
that the world might be free from the
greatest danger that has threatened
it in a thousand years."
There were many suggestions for a
memorial fund for a lecture each year
by a distinguished speaker.
"It is the intention of the Commit
tee that the Honor Roll of the men
from the Chapel Hill community who
fell in the war be printed on the pro
gram of each lecture," it was ex
plained. . .. '
Contributions' are being mailed to
Dr. Bullitt.
