"In the coming run-off for the editorship of The Tar Heel the voters are faced with the choice of cither of making the newspaper a student newspaper or of letting it continue as the completely biased organ for Chuck Hauser and then, if Hau ler so wills, the University Party. "Mr. Hauscr's " pro-Hauser manipulation of the front page during pre-election furor was. a taste of what will happen to The Tar Heel should the student body make the mistake of elect ing rum. Carolina will have a Daily Tar Hauser, not a Daily Tar Heel. "Graham docs not boast Mr. Hauscr's lengthy and colorful journalistic experience, but he does boast the one all-important which Hauser has proved him self to' be completely lacking honesty. "Therefore I wholeheartedly urge not only all those students who voted for me, but all stu dents who are truly interested in making The Daily Tar Heel an honest, non-partisan outlet of student life and government," to vote for Graham Jones. "Jones is sincere. He will work for the welfare of the student body. Please support him. He deserves it."
