ough Campaign Against Georgia In Kenan Today
Carolina's highly-geared ground attack and Georgia's brilliant
aerial circus, with both offenses being headed by candidates for
All-American honors.
Charlie (Choo-Choo) uJstice, the sophomore sensation who
sparked the Tar Heels into their most successful season in years
during 1946, looms as the player on whom all eyes including
those of the five major newsreel cameras will focus. Written
up in several national magazines as the prospective "player of
the year," the Asheville speedster will be making his attempts
to break into the clear against a rugged Georgia forward wall j
that has set up a special defense designed to derail the Tar Heel
Express.
- But by no means is Justice the only offensive threat in the
Carolina backfield. The Tar Heels have a host of other fine run
ning backs to use in the attempt to snap hte Bulldogs' 17-game vic
tory string, put together over a three-year span. Accompanying
Charlie in the starting backfield is the same crew that opened
against Georgia on New Year's Day Pupa, who tallied Carolina's
lone touchdown that day, at f ullback;, Jim Camp, the game's big
gest ground gainer, at wingback; and Co-Captain Joe Wright at
blocking back. '
Also certain to see action in the offensive operations are such
capable replacements as Jack Fitch, IJill Maceyko, and Billy Britt
at tailback; Johnny Clements, Fred Bauer, and freshman Fred
Sherman at wingback; Bob Kennedy and Hosea Rodgers at full
back; and Don Hartig and Bobby Weant in the quarterback slot.
The double job of leading the Bulldogs' passing parade as well
as directing the team's T-formalion attack falls on Johnny Rauch.

Russian Radio.Blasfs University fffis
For Publishing of 'Reactionary' Dqoks
A Russian radio commentator,
broadcasting from Moscow, re
cently denounced the Univer
sity of North Carolina as re
actionary. What prompted the
commentator's tirade was the
University-Press's publication of
R. H. Markham's new book,
"Tito's Imperial Communism,"
which was released earlier this
month.
"Publishing Slander"
The Russian commentator as
serted that "for two years the
University's publishing depart
ment switched over from pub
lishing scientific papers to the
publishing of dirty slanders
against Slav countries. Recently
the University has published a
book of slanders against, the new
Yugoslavia written by a certain
Markham. It is sufficient to
know the author to know some
thing about the book."
The commentator proceeded
at this point to describe Mark
ham, a Boston newspaperman
and foreign correspondent dur
ing and after the war, as a "typi
cal American reactionary jour
nalist for whom the highest
measure of morality is the dol
lar This iranester of the
cj j
pen paid particular attention to
the SlaV countries. He invented
such provocative stories about
the new Rumania that the Ru
manian government was forced
to deport him. Markham the
slanderer lost his job in this
country of new democracy, but
found himself popular in re
actionary America."
"Russian Symphathy"
The indictment continued
against the University: "There
is no sense in arguing with the
wild ravings of this, journalist
who appears under the shield
of a university. One can only
express sympathy to the students
of the University of North Caro
lina that such slanders ar being
forced into their heads., -.
"One can have pity on Amer
ican readers who are at the mer
cy of slanderers of the Markham
type, who should be kept away
from any printed words. How
ever, in the United States the
Markhams enjoy popularity.
Therefore it is no wonder then
that other American journalists
among them those who are in
Yugoslavia are trying to fol
low in his steps."
New Men Asked
To Sign GM Cards
All new students who have
not filled out Interest Indicator
cards for Graham Memorial
should do so immediately. These
may be secured at the student
union information desk.
Purpose of the cards is to as
sist the Student Activities cen
ter in getting the new arrivals
into the many extra-curricular
activities on the campus. Each
card has an index of 11 extra
curricular interests and hobbies,
in addition to many special cam
pus organizations. Check marks
are placed beside each activity
in which the student is interested.
Paratrooper Restores UNC-Georgia Grid
Tickets, Student's Confidence in Army
Donald F. MacDonald, senior
journalism student, has reason
today for confidence in the post
war U. S. Army. - -
Two weeks ago while travel
ling from Chapel Hill to his
home in Little Rock, S. C, Mac
Donald lost 18 tickets to today's
sold-out Georgia-Carolina foot
ball classic. ; J :
The student purchased the
general admission tickets iot
Carolina enthusiasts in1 Marion,
S. C, and lost them along the
highway south of Fayetteville.
A search over a three-mile area
that afternoon proved futile.
Later in the weekanother at

Harper, Bob MacDonald; aftd

students ended in vain,
Last week MacDonald received
the following letter from an
unknown paratrooper at Fort
Bragg:
"Recently as I was hitch-hiking
south of Fayetteville, I
found 18 football tickets which
bear your name.
. "I am sending these back to
you for a few reasons. I know
of what value they are to me,
as I could have easily sold them.
I had plenty offers. My main
reason is to show the civilians
that soldiers and paratroopers
are not low, cheap trash and
bums who would swindle a per
son out of his last dime. Keep
this in mind and let your friends
know our opinion. So long, A
Paratrooper."

a creat deal of justice left in the

TO HOLD MEET
Students of Greek descent are
invited to attend a meeting to
be'held in Roland Parker lounge
of Graham Memorial at 8 o'
clock Tuesday evening.
4 o'clock in Graham Memorial's
main lounge. Recently distin
guished by making the first
commercial recording of "Hark
the Sound" since Kay Kyser's
first discing some seven years
ago, Cole's group has been pop
ular on the campus since its or
ganization in January 1946.
A number of Cole recordings,
including "Sweet Lorraine,
and "That Old Black Magic,"
may be heard on juke boxes in
Graham Memorial and down
town. This fall Cole plans to
enlarge his band by adding a
string section, which, he says,
would give him the only such
band in this section.
Boasts Library
The group boasts a library of
musical arrangements worth
well over $2,000, which were
written exclusively for Roy
Cole's orchestra. Chief arranger
is Frank Settlemyer, former ar
ranger and pianist for Dean
Hudson. A native of Kannapolil,
Settlemyer is now completing
work for an A.B. degree in Mu
sic. v
Vocalist George Demas is cre
ating quite a stir among music
critics with his renditions of
tunes such as 'Prisoner of Love,
"Temptation," and "Night and
Day." Practically every member
of the organization is featured
in either vocal or instrumental
specialties and the band as a
whole has proved its versatility

Hans Eisler
WASHINGTON, Sept. 26-4-(UP)
-The House committee on
un-American activities has asked
the Justice department to de
port Hollywood compoer Hans
Eisler. ' . ,
The group also requests the
department to prosecute Eisler
for alleged perjury and passport
fraud.
Eisler is the brother of the
so-called Number One Com
munist agent - in this country,
Gerhart Eisler. He admitted dur
ing three days of committee
hearings, that he was once a
member of the Communist par
ty in Germany.
The committee report adds
these words:
"The record is clear that
Eisler perjured his way in and
out of the United States at will,
going to Soviet Russia and other
countries whenever he pleased."
The committee made no spe
cific mention in its report of
X f TM T 1 .1 !

T Committee Chairman J. Par
nell Thomas was asked if he did
not consider both the Labor and
State Departments at fault for
letting Eisler into the country.
Thomas replied and we quote:
"From the evidence given us,
there is no question but that the
Department of State was more
at fault than anybody."
