The meeting climaxed a movement started a year and a half ago at the an nual Merchants Association con vention when Louis Lipinsky. prominent Asheville merchant, suggested the endowment. The middle of January was tentatively set as the date for a statewide campaign. Dr. I. G.

Instead they do just the contrary. They practice songs and dance steps and otherwise expend their energy in a way that makes you wonder if their dancing and singing is rejuven ating rather than tiring. A typical intermission during rehearsal would probably ' find Florabel Wolf and Bob Thomas rrninr? over a scene with chore- ohor Martv Jacobs.

Forrest" Covington Vows Over, Veep, Wife Are Happy ST LOUIS, Nov. 18 (P) A charming St. Louis widow who! says she has led "a plain, pro saic life" became the second lady of the land today when she mar ried Vice President Alben W. Barkley. Jane Hadley Barkley, 38, smiled through tears of happi ness when she was led from the altar by the 71 -year-old Vice President . She nodded to her mother, Mrs. Estle Rucker, and her two daugh ters, Anne, 17, and Jane, 14, who were standing at a front pew. -. When the newly weds reached the chapel vestibule, the Vice President did something he fail ed to do immediately after the wedding ceremony. He kissed the bride. "Wasn't he gorgeous?" Mrs. Barkley exclaimed later. With the bride at the wheel, the newlyweds left in an auto mobile at 3:30 o'clock (EST) for an unannounced honeymoon des tination. They had a motorcycle police escort. The courtly bridegroom told newsmen he didn't know where they were going, then added: "Of course we are going to Shangri-La, and that's a difficult drive over the Himalaya Moun tains." A reporter asked wouldn't it be cold in Shangri-La this time of year. "Well, we'll warm it up after we get there," the Veep ;ieplied. "We are leaving by automobile. She's going to drive at the start, because she knows how to get out of St. Louis." Solemn during the ceremony, the Vice President grinned proud ly and showed his good humor to a cheering, rice-throwing crowd outside the church. stands by the stage strumming his guitar and softly singing one of the ballads he sings in the show. One or two industrious people may try to get in a few quick licks at Latin or French during time-out. Larry Peerce, Panch and Jane Milligan, The Old Maid School Teacher, go over a scene together away from the noise of the rest of the cast. The students taktng part in "Oh, Bury Me Not" just naturally love to sing and dance. If they're not working on the show during intermission they're liable as not to an impromptu jitter bugging contest or even an informal pep rally. Someone starts a Carolina fight song and before they're through they've sung all the pop ular football songs heard at Car- olina football games Card Stunts For Are On Tap Sper Requests Colorful Show To Shame Duke University spirit's calling card, halftime fun with colored plac ards, will be performed at to day's game in Duke Stadium, Head Cheerleader. Norm Sperj said yesterday. V r ' An unblocked-off aisle through the middle of the card ' section will necessitate great cooperation on the part of the students, Sp'er., asserted. He asked for those sit ing outside the section to fill fn the aisle during the stunts. V Sper called on students, "to show Weed Village that we are better than they are in athletics, college spirit and ability to, put on a better halftime show." He deplored the inability of Duke to "do card stunts because of the lack of spirit and proper knowl edge." Sper also reminded students that newsreel and i newspaper men would be taking in the card stunt show at halftime. Regular card stunt procedure will be followed at the game, with instruction cards under the seats. The cards will be passed out at halftime. Seats in the stad ium are marked with tape so that students can sit behind each other. "Duke is supposed to have card stunts today," Sper said, "but that doesn't mean they'll have them." At the Wake Forest gasnre they were going to, but before the cards could be passed out, the halftime was over. Reverend Manning, Divorce Foe, Dies NEW YORK, Nov. .18 (P) The Right Rev. William T.

Cromme lin fired a new blast at the mili tary high command today even as the Navy announced a sharp cutback in the naval air power that he has fought to preserve. In and out of official hot water for months, Crommelin has charged that the Navy's attack strength was being wrecked by Pentagon military planners. 1 .

They agreed on a list of seven major safety factors to be check ed. A bus which fails to meet all of them will be grounded immed iately. Buses which don't come up to other factors must be repaired within 24 hours. The operators will get equipment check cards which must be returned within that time and show that repairs have been made.

Snavely Is Speaker A t Beat Duke Rally By Don Maynard "Tomorrow we ace a pretty rough job," Coach Carl Snavely said to nearly 2,000 Tar Heel students gathered about a tower ing bonfire blazing at the Intra mural field "Beat Dook" pep rally last night. "Duke is rated the belter team in tomorrow's game," the Coach told the shivering students, "but in my experience, I have found out that a rating never means much in the long run. "A fighting heart and a fighting spirit means more than all your football polls. "It's going to be a tough game, but we're ready for a tough game," Snavely said. Things got off to a slow start days ago, Crommelin demanded that the rebuke be cleared from his record "completely and for ever" or that he be court-mar- tialled. The Navy's 48-year-old stormy petrel told a news conference he thinks the chances of getting a court martial now, on the strength of his latest broadside, are "probably pretty good." Admiral Forrest P. Sherman, new Chief of Naval Operations, who administered a stinging rep rimand to Crommelin on Nov. 10, declined to comment immedi ately on the Captain's demand. Sherman said Crommelin's re ply to his reprimand has been received in his office, but said he had not yet read it and did not expect lo get to it until late tonight. Capt. Ira Nunn, executive aide to Sherman, said Crommelin s new outburst created an unprece- dented problem for the Navy. on. at a conference between Pa trol Commander C. R. Tolar and C. C. Brown, head of the State Board of Education's Transpor tation Division. - Commissioned officers of the patrol also sat in. Factors which can mean grounding of , a bus if- they are not up to par, Tolar said, are: Steering assembly, brakes, stop signals, exhaust system, door controls, proper identification by lettering (required by law), and windshield wipers. Tolar said that patrolmen also will take buses out for a run to determine if motor governors are set to hold buses' speed to the maximum of 35 miles an hour. Buses i at the Y cojrt, after the South uiicung Den rang out ror mteen minutes ta summon students to the torch parade and rally, but Carolinians chanting "Boot Dook" joined the torch . march as it moved along Chapel Hill streets. Heading . the,- procession was a muffler-bound and ' earmuffed fragment of the University band, led by director Earl Slocum,' and the cheerleaders, headed by Norm Sper. Former Warner Brothers screen starlet Joyce Reynolds concluded the evening's demonstration with the presentation of the PiKA cups to the winning divisions in this afternoon's "Beat Dook" float parade. After a few preliminary cheers and the lighting of the bonfire, termed by Sper as the largest he had ever seen, and "naturally better than Duke's," the crowd began chanting "we want Snave ly." As the affectionately-called "Great White Father" pushed his way through, the crowd gath ered about the hastily construct ed grandstand, the students broke into a roar which took Cheerlead er Sper several minutes to quiet. In the glow of the bonfire, Snavely complimented the Tar Heels and said the season's cheer ing and spirit like that which prompted the students to meet the team after the LSU defeat has inspired the team greatly. "I know we all feel pretty good the way we played Notre Dame .for two quarters . ." The Coach broke off as the students shouted in a voice ". . . for four quarters, Coach!" "Well," he smiled, "that's the spirit I mean. I'm glad you feel like that . Have it your way." Look Out Fellers! Sadie Hawkins Activity Is Scheduled For Dec. 2 Letters have been sent to soro rities, fraternities, and other cam pus organizations inviting them to participate in the annual Sadie Hawkins Day festivities, which will be sponsored Dec. 2 this year by the Carolina Independent Coed Association. The, organizations have been asked to enter a float in the Dog patch Parade, which will begin the day's activities. Following the parade, for-which prizes will be awarded for the best floats by the CICA, special entertain ments, games, and the traditional hooman race will be held at Emerson Field. Organizations planning to en Crowd Of 57,500 o Witness Game In Duke Stadium By Larry Fox It's an old story, but like most of the old masters it gets better with each telling and the wonderful thing about it is that the ending changes almost every time you sit down to read it. This literary similie coming in the closing weeks of No vember when the football fever is approaching the crisis stage could only mean the Carolina-Duke encounter, which is scheduled for Duke Stadium this afternoon at 2 o'clock" before a record crowd of 57,000. For the 36th time in the history Float Parade Is Studded With Talent A broken-down wagon carry ing a KA hunter, a hound dog and a real live 'possum caught the fancy of the five judges yes terday afternoon and won first place in the fraternity division of the Beat Dook float parade. Goose pimples were prevalent on most floats, but it was a bunch of blue devils, a 22 foot ball player and some haloed an gels that won out over the girls in shorts and gave first place in the sorority division to Pi Beta Phi sorority. When the Mangum Dorm entry passed, the boys looked as if they had lost their best friend. But actually, the dcaJ in the coffin was Duke. Never once during the long procession did any of the. mourners crack a smile. And their solemnity won for them first place in the, men's dorm di vision. Eat Smith Sausages" was the theme of the Smith Dorm float. As Smith was the only girls' dorm to enter, the float placed first in this division. Queen of the float parade was Betty Smith, Tri Delt from Charleston, West Va. Her float was made by Pi Kappa Alpha, and was not entered in compe tition. "We're not competing, thank you. We just joined the parade," a carload of bedraggled frontier gals advertising Sound and Fury told the judges. Vet Wounds 2 Cops In VA Office Battle ERIE, Pa., Nov. 18 (JP) Two police sergeants were seriously wounded today attempting to capture a war veteran who bar ricaded himself in the Erie of fices of the Veterans Administra tion. Shot were Sgts. Leo Waldinger and Elmer May. The extent of their injuries was not immediate ly learned. Police said the war veteran, whose identity was not estab lished, was captured. They said the man had barricaded himself in the office of Lieut. Col. Ar thur Criswell, the manager of the Erie Veterans Administra tion Office. ter floats in the parade are asked to contact Carolina Bruner, pres ident of the CICA, before the Thanksgiving holidays. The festivities will continue Sadie Hawkins Day with a cos tume dance in the Tin Can Square dancing, round dancing and games will be featured, and prizes will be awarded for the best, costumes. . Social Chairman of the CICA in charge of Sadie Hawkins' Day is Jo Ann Stewart, who will be assisted by Peggy Warren.

Neither team has an unbeaten season on the fire this afternoon but the Southern Conference championship will be decided to day. Duke doesn't have a chance for the crown, but can act as a spoiler by defeating the Tar Heels, who are tied with Maryland with four victories apiece. The Terps have played ' all their league games and so a win by Carolina would mean a 5-0 record and the title. If the three-year Tar Heel scor ing progression holds up today, Carolina should count a total of 19 points. Three years ago, the Tar Heels started their victory string with a 22-7 triumph and the next year Bob Cox kicked a field goal after missing all three extra points lo make it 21-0. Then last season Carolina came out ahead by 20-0. Three in a Row Many of the record number of fans without a doubt will be present to catch a glimpse of Charlie Justice, Carolina captain and ace of the Tar Heel offense, who has led his-teem to those three consecutive victories over the Blue Devils during his col- ege career. The Tar Heels and , Justice hope to make it a clean sweep, but the Carolina Choo Choo is a doubtful starter this afternoon his injured ankle still not completely healed. Then of course, many folks will be out to see the fabled remains of an outfit that has just run up against Notre Dame, but un fortunately the sadists in the stands will have to be content with any blood spilled during the game, for the Tar Heels are in about the best shape they've been all season. Wingback Fred Sher man is still out, but Justice is the only other doubtful man in the lineup. Joe Neikirk, the only serious injury in the Notre Dame contest last week, was back out yesterday and took his turn in the pivot post as the Tar Heels rar through their plays. "Two Bad Boys" Duket however, is not quite so fortunate with Fullback Jack Mounie and Wingback Jack Fried- lund both on the doubtful list. The Blue Devils have been fur ther hampered by the suspenson of John Montgomery and Tommy Harris earlier this veek. Mont gomery was the number one quarterback for Coach Wallace Wade while Harris was a regular defensive halfback. Top tailback for the Blue Devils Billy Cox is now expected to be in good shape after an early (See JUSTICE MAY, page 5).
