Significantly, the van dals always do their deeds under the cover of night, thus admit ting the indefensible nature of their ac tions. There is a recog nized possibility, however, that the current acts of vandalism might not be the work of stu dents from either school. "The competitive feeling which naturally surrounds the "big game" might cause some persons, raistakeningly to believe that by. defacing the other campus, they wiJl be furthering their own school spirit.' Student ' authorities, of both schools have declared that any student caught defacing the property -.of cither-school will be subject 'to immediate suspension. "We appeal -to.- the students of Duke and Carolina, iri the name of good sportsmanship and de tent conduct to refrain from any act of vandalism, either now or in the future."

The Demon Deacon fans will get the proceedings', under way with yells for their grid heroes Maj. Gen. Hobart R Gay, com manding the U. S. First Cavalry Division, declared there was no evidence of any reinforcement and the enemy was so spent he "cannot man a solid defense line." ' But the advance was cautions tu-avoid, losing lives "uselessly in these, last days of the war," Gay said. Ninety-five miles almost due east of Pyongyang, South Koreans completed the mop-up of the big east coast of Wonsan. There the South Koreans were in position to strike west across the mountains' and hem in enemy i forces now being pressed back by the might of the U. N. attack along the 38th Parallel. Wonsan is 105 miles north of the Parallel. Aerial observers said groups of 50 to 200 Reds were seen retreat ing before armored columns of the U. S. First Cavalry Divisior and British and Australian unit: along Parallel 38. These forces were closing r pincers on the strategic road an rail center of Kumchon, 11 mile north i of the 38th on the mail road to. Pyongyang. The Reds fleeing before the ad vance. were being pounded b Allied warplanes and artillery. Gay told correspondents the Communists were "pulling out'" io the north and west snd added: ".These copkies are beaten." j , ' ". : '" It "is only r matter time, he said, "until wc are in Pyongyang." While some Communists re treated before the Allied advance, promptly at nine o'clock. Loud speakers will bring the Deacon yells to the Carolina fans. And at 9:15 the Tar Heels will get their chance. to answer with cheers of their own. - , Bristol . said that the 9-9:30 period on the air is especially well listened to.

Due to the crowded schedule of events on the inauguration program this week, the Univer sity Administration decided that another formal celebration today would be overdoing things a bit. So the inauguraj, events here, in a way, are to- take the place of the usual birthday observance. The cornerstone of Old East, oldest state university building in the nation, wjjs-lald on October 121793. The -University had been provided for in the constitution f adopted at Halifax in 1776. It was chartered by the Legislature in Fayetteville in 1783. In 1795 the institution opened its doors to students. The cornerstone laying 157 years ago was a colorful, dram atic, scene.vA long procession of people for the first time marched along the narrow lane .which is now Cameron Avenue. Many of them were clad in the striking insignia of the Masonic fraternity! their Grand Master William Richardson Davie, arrayed in the full decorations of his rank. They marched with military tread because most of them had seen service. Many were scarred with wounds of war. Their faces were serious, for they were en gaged in a great work. 18 Vote Age Being Sought By Student Special to The Daily Tar Heel DURHAM, Oct. 11 A Carolina student who sought nomination to the State Legislature last year but failed because he was too young, today said he intended to seek 1,000 names on a petition asking the law making group to give 18-year-olds the right to vote. Robert Pace, a UNC student from Durham County, said in his announcement he did not be lieve young men up to 20 years old should be called on to defend their rights and then be denied the privilege for which they fight. Pace cited N. C. Secretary of State Thad Eure as a staunch ad vocate of the move to give 18-year-olds the right to vote. In an address at Chapel Hill last spring, Eure came out in favor of letting 18-year-olds vote. The present age is 21. Georgia is the only state which allows 18-year-olds to go to the polls. Referring to his unsuccessful bid for nomination to the Legis lature, Pace said: "The fact that I was disqual ified to run for the General As sembly because of my age is not the reason why I am going to present this petition.-Whatever ac tion is taken will not affect me because I will be 21 in December. "I am nresentin? this nntition because I believe that it is un- fair and undemocratic to require young men under 21 to defend our freedom and at the same time refuse to them the privileges for j which they fight." Frank Aliston, Roy Parker Vie For Post Polls To Oq Open From 9 Until 6; . - . , f' Counters Wanted 4 Y Rolfe Neili 'remarkably rnud-f ree campaign closes today when students vote in a special election for a new Editor of The Daily, TarrHeeU fill seatij 1 ih' tfie Student Legislature and Publications Board, and select rrrfabers for two girls' groups. r' Polls will be open from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. and are conveniently located throughout the campus. Julian Mason, Chairman of the Elections Board, yesterday asked for interested students to come by the student government office in Graham Memorial to sign up for counting ballots tonight. The most important position to be decided in the election is The Dally Tar Heel's Editorship. Frank Aliston, Jr., and Roy Park er, Jr., 'aie. the only two candi dates. ''. . Aliston, University arty candi date, is a junior from'Vrljngton, Va. He served as Associate Edi tor for the spring quartef.o'f 1949 and at present is Assistant Sports Editor. Aliston is a mem ber of the Publications Board and of 'the Order, of the Grail. He has worked on the paper since enter ing here. V An Ahoskie junior,.. Student Party nominee Parker las, 'held numerous reportoriaand editorial posts since coming to work for The Daily Tar' Heel as a fresh man. He 'was News Editor Until last spring when he became Man aging Editor. During the summer he was both Editor and Manag ing Editor at different times. Parker was Acting Editor until recently, filling the vacancy created when Graham Jones fail ed to return to school. Parkti resigned because of the "awk ward and unfair position" he would command by holding and running for the job. On-the Publications Board, it will be a three-way fight for two seats. ' Doubly endorsed Buddy Vjaden, Herb Nachman (UP), and Tom Kerr (SP) are running. Vadenl clerk of the Men's Honor Council and former Sports Editor, of The Daily Tar Heel, will be running to succeed him self.

Kerr switched to the success ful format and worked on the humor magazine for several years. He edited it last year. Zane Robbins, Acting Chairman "of the Publications Board, yes terday issued this statement: "One thing I would lik? to call to the attention of the Voters is that a man with a double endorse ment is not necessarily an auto matic winner for the office he seeks. I refer specifically to Bud dy Vaden, who has such an en dorsement for one of the two senior seats. "Vaden has leeii a. member of the Board in good standing since his appointment but must stand for reelection. If, however, both his opponents poll more votes be cause people fail to check the double endorsement, Vaden will not retain his Board post." The ballot as released by Ma son with the exception of The Daily Tar Heel and the PB: Dorm Men's I (vote for one), John. Poindexter (UP) and Bill Burkholder (SP). . v ; (See Elections, page 4)
