Dr. Graham, whose record of service to our University began at the start of the century, and whose direct work with the sons and daughters of this State has extended oner a 40 year period, was in the mountain city of Asheville at the time of his newest award. As he has for so long a time, hewwbs taltyig't,ith' North Caro linians, and he was speaking of the great goat for which' men have been striving since-even before the. Legend of the Golden Fleece: the Fatherhood of God md B fatherhood, of Man. - The Golden. Fleece selected' Frank Graham and its new initi ates because of. . . Work well done Courage in the face of scorn and devoted service to Humanity. In a, world pleading for leadership, a wofld split into artificial' and hell-made antagonisms, Frank Graham's refreshingly ener getic advocacy of the most practical-and most, idealistic of all ideas helping ourselves and pleasing our God by' serving out neighbors. ' We won't add. an anticlimatic commendation to Golden Fleece for s it?eII-balojiced election... . - We wouldn't even try to say anything about Frank Graham that hasn't ieen said a thousand times by tens of thmisands of his fellow North Carolinians... We would only say that from 4.000.000 North Carolinians, none has exceeded Frank Graham's character. The University of North Carolina and the citizens of this state are humbly proud of its most humble son Frank Graham. ', 4 0. e. j.

Along witn Sen. Graham were tapped nine students who have shown outstanding ability, and general all-around excellence of character and leadership. One other had been tapped previous ly, but not announced. This is the second time the former president of the Greater University of North Carolina had been called back to his Alma . Mater in 12 months to receive highest campus awards. The first time was last May when he received the first annual Di-Phi Award, given by the two oldest debating organizations on cam pus. Also announced at the only public meeting of the Fleece for they ear ."'were the honor society's " officers "lor the past year. Named as Jason was Jess Dedmond; Hyparchos, Al Lowenstein,-Sam Magill; Grammateus, Harold An drews and Christopher, Billy Carmichael III, Dick Gordon. Graham was xe-tapped into the society 41 years after he first became a member. He was first tapped in 1909, me year he received his degree from the University. As the citation of Sen. Graham's work was. being read by Jason Jess Dedmond, the Senator was 550 miles away, in Asheville, campaigning for re election to "the Senate. The nine students tapped were: Charles Samuel Bartlett, Jr., Chapel .HilJ; Andrew Cornish, Washington, D.

Though iat year Dr. Walter Reece Beryhill was tapped as the faculty member of the Fleece, no faculty member was chosen for this year's ritual. Membership- in the 47-year-old honorary group is based on leadership in one or more cam pus activities, and all-around ex cellence as a . student and in campus leadership. The practice of re-tapping alumni began two years ago when Kay Kyser, fam out bandleader and native of Rocky JMount was honored. Last year Federal Judge John J. Par ker of Charlotte was , re-tapped.
