THE DAILY! TAR HEEL SUNDAY, APRIL II. iv.- PAGE TWO ID ! '4 1 3 This is definitely not the springtime Henry Wallace wanted it to be. Of late, Wallace has been running into trouble at every turn. Even in his home state Iowa he found it, not long ago, more than difficult to get a place to speak. While visiting a friend in that same state,- he de cided to hold a press conference. His friend offered his apartment and Wallace accepted. As the press men came in the door, the land lord of the building stood in the hall, deadly serious, handing them little cards stating that the views expressed upstairs by Henry Wal lace were not necessarily those of the apart ment owner. Last summer Wallace was in Chapel Hill and, although not as many persons listened to him as attended a football game some months later, he wasn't given any trouble. Even after he announced his candidacy it was safe to be seen with him. Now, how- spring. B.S. Que A I An editorial writer of The Mesa College Criterion sketches a college girl: - "She is a little too fat and usually has some trouble with her skin. She diets spas modically for both faults and keeps them almost under control. Her hair , looks nice most of the time, but she insists it's a mess and she doesn't know what she's going to do with it. She wears a sweater, a skirt, saddle shoes, and anklets because all the other girls do, and she loves being one of the group. She looks well washed and brushed and attractive. . "She has an inferiority complex, she says just an awful one. She invariably thinks of herself as shy and she says she hates to meet people. She finds her own actions and reactions fascinating. She likes to tell how tired she is, and how many hours sleep she's had since Friday. She falls asleep in class. The Peopfe, Yes -And Then Again, No By Sandy Grady These are the days when every politician and editorialist keeps a wary but blood-shot eye on the doings of that slumbering beast, the Carolina Voter. It is a time of i making many small X's on many ballots and counting these X's and shouting huzzah if they fippen to tally in the right di rection. There is much talk about what "they" the Average Caro lina. Joes are going to do about this and that. . It is open season on reading the campus mind, and you can't raise a damp rock without find ing "two bright lads figuring out the student trend. Everyone is eager to lift a finger beside his nose, draw sagely on a pipe, and make sounds like a minor league Gallup. The time has come when any opinion a guy has an Average Carolina Joe, that is will be ser iously considered simply because he is a potential voter, a Cipher Among the Seven Thousand. The politicos will listen to anybody because they must have an ear to the ground, a hand on the pulse of the people keeping their nose to the grindstone, and stay ing on the ball at the same time, I suppose.

FOR THIS ISSUE: NIGHT Springtime Jor J4enry? ditorial: Coed Portrait by it, and she knows what run the gamut of emotions in an attempt to get the voter out of his sack and over to the polls. They have pled and teased and shouted and tried to shame him into doing his duty. When only half of the student body has been tugged to the polls by can didates, political machinery, printed barrages, and habit, everyone is pretty perturbed not quite understanding why the merry-go-round of cliques and hot air didn't make any difference to the other half. Everyone is interested in the masses and their lack of interest these days. I guess we're just a bunch of fat, happy sheep being herded through a field, but I sure wish those damn sheep dogs would be quiet. There are always complaints after elections that "you can't ever tell what people are go ing to do." It's like MacArlhur said yesterday. The General had been walloped pretty badly by Stassen in the Wisconsin pres idential primary, and the Jap anese couldn't understand how it happened. MacArlhur said, "Thai is one of. our great Amer ican customs: . voting indepen dently and without restraint." He sounded a liitle bewildered himself though. Daily 2Tat Heel columnists are their own and are Daily Tar Heel. Complete Leased Wife of United Press EDITOR: Chuck Hauser ever, his speeches are picketed and earlier this week his campaign manager and a cou ple of men in his retinue were worked over by picketers moving into a meeting. If Wallace expected this spring to be a period of growth for his party (which, by the way, is due to be legally named by his strategy board within the next few days), he was only half right. He has gained new sup porters but certainly not in the number that he had expected. No, Henry Wallace probably isn't happy this spring. But if Henry isn't, think of his wife Ho. Look Magazine reported last week that "she is extremely sensitive to the catcalls and criticism of her husband's enemies, and hopes he will soon retire from politics so they can live at their farm." We wonder how his farm is doing this Her powers of concentration are just gone at the end of half an hour of listening to that man, she, says, and she gets so bored she could just die. She likes to fix you firmly with her eye and tell you she has eight themes and 2,000 words due Monday, and if you think she's done any of it you're wrong, she says. She's perpetually appalled at the amount of work she has to do. "If you probe ever so slightly you will suddenly be face to face with her serious side. She will confide it, as a fault, that she is not all gay exterior. She thinks everyone wishes she knew more about good music. She feels a lot better about Art since she took that appreciation course and to look for. She looks forward to that time when she'll be able to catch up on her reading.

Hollywood Hollywolf Conway Looks the Part By Patricia Clary Hollywood (UP) The title of the "biggest wolf, in Holly wood" has been given to actor Tom Conway. Conway insists it's only be cause he happens to look like a wolf. Actually, he says, he's a home-loving, contented hus band, utterly harmless off the screen, and no more a wolf than the falcon he has played for years in the "Falcon" series. "The biggest wolf in Hollywood was what Universal-International producer Lester Cowan demand ed for the role of Whitfield Savory, the department store owner in "One Touch of Venus," who stalks Ava Gardner, who's Venus. Conway, they decided, fitted the character of the rich and predatory Savory even better than such conventional movie wolves as Vincent Price, Fran chot Tone and Clifton Webb. It's by far the best part t6 date for Conway, brother of the actor George Sanders. A trick of fate started Con way's career on the English stage. "I was a saleman for a safety glass company," Conway ex plained. "One day I tried to sell a casting director an order of glass. This man couldn't get his mind on my sales talk. He kept trying to sell me on being in his play. He said I was just the type he needed. "I told him I had a quota of sales to make; I couldn't spend all day talking theater. So we struck a bargain; I took the part and he bought up the rest of my glass quota." match their beanies, nearly every college man owns at least a cou ple of bow ties. Preferences range all the way from plain, small polka dots and striped reps to figured foulards that reflect the new Bold Look. ing: one is the straight bow tie with straight ends; another is the straight bow tie' with pointed ends; and the third is the butter fly shaped bow tie. They've got fashion by the throat! Here's something to add col or to your outfit the odd waist coat in wool flannel. The design that we've seen on nearly every campus we've looked over is the classic tattersal check ; these are as popular as a "snap course." We've seen them in blue and brown checks on a white or yellow ground, and in black and blue on while, and even in red and black on while. "The designs of which we've seen only a few not because they're not as popular (far from it) but because they're still so hard to come by are the waistcoats of brightly colored tartan plaids. t These Bold Look patterns come in combinations of blue, red, green and grey, and they catch the eye even more quickly than do the tattersal checked waist- coats. They've been available in such limited numbers that some shops have had trouble meeting the demand for them. Write Away Fitzgerald tor Childress Editor: I wish to express my appre ciation to those who supported me in the recent election. Being defeated, however, isn't as bad as it could have been, due to the well known abilities of my oppo nents. The parties have shown that they were interested in more than just winning an election in their selection of these men; they were interested, and succeeded, in se lecting capable and experienced men. After careful consideration, however, I wish to direct your attention to the Student Parly candidate. Gran Childress. I have worked with Gran since entering this University in va rious phases of campus activ ities, and I have seen examples of his conscientious and ca pable work. Gran has worked with this phase of Student Government through the Student Legislature, and is qualified in every way to fulfill the position to the best in terest of the student body. I would appreciate your serious consideration of this request for his support. Earl Fitzgerald Injustice We of the tennis team feel that a great injustice has been done to our captain Vic Seixas.

In other words, the old Army- Navy battle supposed to have been stopped by unification is hotter than ever. The first part of this secret memo pointed out that the Navy was in danger of becom ing obsolete, and that it should assume a new offensive role for itself that of dropping the atomic bomb. The A-bomb, it J They look especially good when teamed up with tweeds the plainer the tweed the better or plain grey flannel suits. And . another good thing about the i waistcoat: they give us back the use of pockets that were lost to us when the undergrad for the same inexplicable reasons that j control all campus fads stopped wearing a vest. It was bound to happen: cor duroy jackets went over so big when they first came out that now college men are wearing trousers and even sport shirts of corduroy as well. It's a good rugged fabric particularly well suited to knocking about the cam pus in after classes. The favorite jacket is the three-button singls breasted model with a center vent and a flap over the chest pocket. Natural tan and dark brown are the favorite colors. Trousers come in the same nat ural tan and dark brown, but it isn't very often that corduroy jackets and corduroy trousers are worn at the same time. Sports shirts are made of pin wale corduroy a fabric with a finer cord. Besides' the same fan and brown, these shirts come in soft bluish tones, grey, and bright red. Being wash able, the corduroy makes a practical sport shirt as well as a durable one. And it's the only material we know of thai doesn't look messy when it's unpressed. that we can best speak for him. We know thai he is a fine sportsman and a true gentle man and regret thai Ihe cam pus may have been given a false impression of his charac ter by the letter appearing in the DTH cn Monday. Coach Kenfield believes, as we do, lhat Vic is one of the finest sportsmen ever to play on a Carolina team. We believe that the writer either does not know what sports manship is or knows, but wanted to undermine Vic's political status. We also feel that the Campus might like to know what rules of tennis etiquette should be fol lowed by a spectator at a tennis match. They are very simple and one can follow them and still give wholehearted support to his team. Rule 1. No applause or other noise should be made while a point is in play. As soon as the point is over you have a chance to express yourself. Rule 2. It is not considered proper in the tennis world to cheer or applaud when the- op posing team makes an error. In further regard to the letter attacking Vic's sportsmanship, we feel sure thai the Campus has seen many examples of such let ters in the past, and is well aware of Vic's true character.

The B-29s I which pounded Germany and Japan toward the end of the last war, according to the Navy, should now be virtually ground- ed, with offensive fighting left to the Navy. The United States. argues the Navy, has now become like England in 1938 and must re sort to a net of interceptor planes over its shores to keep off the enemy. Concluding portions of the Navy's amazing memo used in the. new Army and Navy tug-of-war are given below. The Air Forces point of view regarding all this will follow in an early column. "The following are the advan tages of the carrier task force bomber for atomic attack: "No amphibious task forces re quired to seize overseas bases. "The logistic problem of sup plying overseas bases is elim inated. "Operations are conducted from a mobile base and enemy diss: - I pates his resources in trying to find it. "1500 mile range is built into carrier instead of into airplane. "20 knot wind plus catapult always available for take-off. "Submarine recoveries elimi nate landing gear. "So much for the future role 1 of the Navy. What becomes of the Air Forces if ihe Navy takes over the role of strategic bomb ing? There is plenty left for the Air Forces to do. In view of the nature of a future war, it is possible that in a future war Ihe mission of the Air Forces may be more important ihan thai cf the Navy. "It has always been a military axiom that the best defense is a well-directed offense. In our na tional defense planning we have therefore given much higher pri ority to planning for the offense than to the defense. With the ad vent of the A-bomb, and the in creased range of heavy bomber aircraft, we are forced to modify this axiom. "In the past we have always regarded taking the offensive against the enemy and carrying the war to his own country as the most important objective of all. This is still important, for unless we do this, we cannot break his will to fight. But in the past carrying the war to the enemy was in itself the best way of insuring the security of our homeland. This is no longer true. "With the possession of the A-bomb by an enemy, attack ing his counlry no longer in sures the security of ours. Each country now has the capability cf ruining each other simulta neously. It. will be impossible to bomb the enemy air force out of existence on the ground by a surprise attack, while it has the capability to do this to us.
