Former DTH Editor Says UNC Has Undergone Many Changes By Leonard Dudley Lt. G. E. "Ed" French, USNR, a graduates of the University, class of '32, and former manag ing editor of the DTH, has been assigned to the staff of the Na val ROTC unit on the campus as an instructor. He has been on active duty with the Board of Naval Personnel in Washington, D. C. Lt. French said the thing that impressed him most about the DTH was "the addition of wom en to the staff." "In the days when I was managing editor," he wailed, "we only had one or two girls working on it and now you have several 'slick chicks" put ting out columns." In those days, French said, things were really tough. The managing editor was the man re sponsible for putting out the pa nel'. "There was no such thing as 'night' editors," he aaaea. . , Vi nonor Vip said is tne size ui h" "At that time it was a six-column tri-weekly and the students vot ed to increase the fee and make it a daily," he said. Becky Huggins Chosen Queen Of Durham Tobacco Festival Miss Becky Huggins of Chapel Hill was crowned Queen of To baccoland at jthe Coronation ball of Durham's annual Mer-r chants Association Tobacco Fes tival Friday night in the City armory. Lyndon Hobbs, Miss Huggins'- escort who is also from Chapel Hill, reigned as king of the festival. Miss Huggins, winner of a beauty contest sponsored by the Durham Merchants Association, is the daughter of Vic Huggins, president of the Chapel Hill Carrboro Chamber of Commerce and Merchants club. Both the king and queen are students at the University. Miss Elizabeth Lyons also rep resented Chapel Hill at the threq day festival, which was climaxed by a 50 unit parade down Dur ham's Main Street yesterday morning and a square dance in the City armory last night. Friday's festivities included the Merchant association spon sored ' beauty contest in which Miss Huggins was chosen queen from among 22 girls from the Durham area, and a fashion show at the City armory. Music for the Coronation ball was furnished by Johnny Satter field and his orchestra. Graham Memorial, said French, was just another unfinished building for "about ten years'! and during his reign as editor it was finished and became the stu dent union. The DTH had been housed in the basement of Alum ni building up until the new building was finished, after which it was moved to its present loca tion on the second floor of Gra ham Memorial. "Another thing that amazes me," observed French, "is to hear some of these students talk ing about coed visiting agree ments as though it were some thing new. We had the same trouble back in those days." One of the biggest stories of the day, said French, was the inauguration of Dr. Frank P. Graham as President of the Uni-, versity. Lt. French said he spends much of his time renewing old ac quaintances around the campus and trying to get adjusted to his new duties. At present he is liv ing at the home of Mrs. A. H. Patterson on East Franklin street. r oTin UNC Professors To Lecture At Health Meet Dr. Hughes Bryan and Dr. Lucy S.

Athens, Ga., Oct. 2 Some 500 carefree Carolinians showed the none-too-friendly town of Athens some real School spirit and thun dering cheering at noon today as they met for the official "pre Georgia game pep rally outside the large Georgian hotel here. A traffic-blocking parade of the traveling Tar Heels then wound through the streets of town and onto the University of Georgia campus, chanting, singing and cheering. Head cheerleader Norm Sper led the rally, assisted by cheering squad members Sarah Jane Farlow, Claudia Lee, Wray Farlow and Durwood Jones. A smaller, but just as noisy in proportion, group of Chapel Hil lians . got up or stayed upi to welcome in the caravan train carrying the team, students, and hundreds of alumni and friends of the University. The rail-riding sons of Carolina arrived in two train sections at 7:30 and 8:30 this morning. The new arrivals were paraded from the train station to their respective hotels, elderly alumni and students-alike either walking or riding the several-block trip. Two busses took the team to their hotel where they rested and re laxed in preparation for the grid iron tussle which began at 2:30 this afternoon. ' Sorhe Georgians' Rude v University students here for the game have found many of the Georgians, both students and townspeople, friendly, courteous and eager to assist their weekend guests. But most comments are of rudeness and unfriendliness on the part of North Carolina's hosts. Several acts of vandalism have already marred the Georgia week end slate. At least two students reported that their car radio aerials were torn from their auto mobiles, and one owner of a well advertised "Carolina 34, Texas 7 Georgia, you're next" car dis covered that Georgia students, re (See HAUSER, page 4) UNC Officials At Fort Bragg Approximately 600 ground force reserve officers left yesterday for Fort Bragg in Fayetteville for a contact camp.

GM Fans Are Sad, Remain Confident During First Half By Stewart McKeel It was only half time, and it was only a football game, but it might have been the funeral of the greatest man alive ac cording to the long faces in the main lounge of the student union on the campus of the Uni versity of North Carolina. The score was only seven to nothing but it might as well have been 70 to nothing. Most of the students who were there for the main purpose of listening to the football game were very quiet, talking listlessly to one another. The radio was giving Car olina most of the credit, but af ter all the score was against the Tar Heels, the team that was rated number one in the nation the past week. True, they had pushed Georgia all over the field, and had gone down to the Geor gia 12 inch line, the one yard line, and the five yard line, but on none of these occasions did the Tar Heels score. For all of these long faces though no one gave up hope, all around could be heard the re marks, "it's only half over," "we only need one half," and "spot them seven points, they will need all of them and then some." Yes, for all of the disappoint ment that these students felt they still had faith in their team Forever confident that as last week, the Tar Heels, in the weeks to come, would still be rated among the top in the land. Movie at Village Features Germany MGM's "The Search", a movie of displaced persons camps in Germany, will play at the Village Theatre Sunday and Monday.

Reports from persons who have seen the movie say that it is a very good portrayal of act ual conditions and attitudes in the camps. Where Ghosts Walk . Girls of Alpha Now Live At By Emily The girls of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority started moving into their new home, the Crys tal Palace, on September 23. The house, belonging to the Univer-t sity, is also known as the Alger non Sydney Barbee place. The house was rented from the University following the expira tion of the lease on the soror ity's former residence on Battle lane. It is located directly in front of the partially completed Morehead Planetarium on Frank lin street. Crystal Palace has seen many changes during the 90 years of its existence. The small servant's dwelling which once stood behind was torn down for fire wood during the depression. Also nota bly absent are the elm trees which once shaded the place and the pasture in which the cows grazed. The University bought the old house in 1946 from Mrs. R. B. Parker of Enfield, who had inher ited it from Mrs. Barbee, her sis ter. Miss Nancy Hilliard, builder of orno From Behind To Achieve Victory By Buddy Vaden ATHENS, Ga., Oct. 2 Overcoming a seven-point deficit at halftime, the University of North Carolina Tar Heels pushed across three second-half touchdowns to defeat the Georgia Bulldogs, 21-14, in Sanford stadium here this after noon. A capacity crowd of 43,000 witnessed the nation's number one grid team capture their second win of the season. The general opinion in the Carolina dressing room alter the Georgia game seemed to be that Georgia (and Carolina) had better teams than the scoVe would sug gest. Coach Snavely, who was pleas ed with the outcome, but was not totally satisfied with the first two periods, said, "It was a tough ball game, and we made it more so ourselves by failing to score when we had the opportunities. Georgia played a bang-up game, but we had anticipated that. We expected them to be rough." Snavely con tinued. Concerning the brilliant ex hibition displayed by Charlie "Choo Choo" Justice, Coach Snav ely commented, "Charlie seems to get better and better with every game. He's a great little ball player and great to have on our team." There were more compliments for the Ashville flyer from the rest of the team. Ted Hazelwood, who played a bang-up line thought that Georgia had a won derful team. "I'm glad we won," he com mented, "and with a few more breaks we would have added several more TD's." Max cooke was of the opinion that this Georgia game was tough er than the Texas rout. "We were lucky to get by them. The rest of the teams on our schedule will be 'up' for us now. We're the team to beat, "he said. Art Weiner was no different from the rest of the tired, but happy Tar Heel crew. All he could say was, "I'm just glad its over. It's been the tougheest game I've been in in three years." Irv Holdash, defensive line backer superb, seemed relieved too. Said he, "Our team looked great today after coming from be hind and going on to win. We can really get those points when we need 'em most. Gamma Delta Crystal Palace Baker the house, came here from Gran ville county with her family in 1817 when she was 20 years of age. About 17 years later she opened a lodging house near the present site of Graham Memo rial in a building later known as the Eagle Hotel. In 1853 Miss Hilliard sold the hotel to Major R. Guthrie for $10,000 and short ly thereafter built the house now known as Crystal Palace. Stu dents dreamed up the nickname because of the house's many large windows and bright white paint on the outside. After the Civil War Miss Hil liard found herself in desperate financial straits and was forced to sell the beloved Crystal Pal ace in the year 1869. Solomon Pool, the non-so-popular Recon struction president of the Uni versity, assumed ownership of the dwelling for a paltry $150. Following Miss Hilliard's death in 1873 Crystal Palace was oc cupied by Major Guthrie and two years later was sold to the Algernon S. Barbees, the death Even though the score was very close, the ball game was not so. Although unable to score in the first half, the Tar Heels were in side Georgia's fifteen yard line four times. Twice the locals ad vanced the ball to the one yard line. Choo-choo Charlie Justice, liv ing up to his pre-season AU American ratings, scored all three Tar Heel touchdowns. He went over from the nine for the first score, went 14 yards through the middle for the second and return ed a punt 83 yards for the game winning third touchdown. Carolina Line Holds The big Carolina defensive for ward wall held Georgia's Tun ing game and it was not until the final minutes of the game that the Bulldogs could put on an offen sive drive to score. Johnny Rauch's highly-touted passing was finally successful with three minutes to go when he tossed a 29-yard pass to Lorendo for the score. Time and again the Carolina offense rolled up first downs while Georgia was not able to register a first down until their scoring drive began in the fourth period. The Tar Heels ran up 21 first downs to 3 for the Georgians. The game was close .all the way from the opening Carolina play down to the final gun. At one time the Tar Heels held a 21-7 lead, but the Georgia charges of Wally Butts came back fast to register their second touchdown and make things look tough for a time. Carolina Supporters Go Wild Carolina supporters, several thousand strong, went wild in the second-half as their team finally began to cross that praviously for biding double stripe. Georgia broke into the scoring column midway in the first quar ter when halfback Eli Maricich intercepted a Hosca Rodgers pass on his own 30 and raced 70 yards for a touchdown. Joe Geri split the up-rights to make the score 7-0 for Georgia. Carolina had previously driven to the four-yard line where Art Weiner fumbled on an end around. Carolina had recovered Gen's fumble on the Georgia 25 and Carolina rooters were sure the Tar Heels would be able to push the pig-skin over. Tar Heels Move 69 yards After an exchange of purity the Tar Heels worked the ball 36 yards to the Georgia 30, only to lose possession on downs. After three Georgia plays, Geri kicked and the locals were back knock ing on Georgia's door once more. It took 16 plays to move the ball 69 yards and two feet, but Billy Hayes fumbled when trying to buck the center for the last foot. Georgia recovered in the end zone for a touchback. Just before the first half ended the Tar Heels again began to drive for pay-dirt and got to the one yard line when time ran out. This Tar Heel drive covered 64 yards, but was again unable to cover the few remaining feet that lay between scrimmage and the chalk mark. Carolina started the second-half with a big bang. Running plays without huddling, Justice, Rod gers and sub fullback Bob Ken nedy worked from their own 43, where Rodgers had taken the (See CHOO CHOO, page 4) I -4
