VOLUME LIX Associated Press CHAPEL HILL, N. C. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14,' 1950 United Press NUMBER 47 Parking Area Near Peabody Is Re-Assigned Drivers Who Live Out Of City Gain From New Rulings The 300 red sticker car owners who live outside the city limits are eligible for parking privileges in the parking area behind Pea body Hall but must exchange their present stickers for a new one at South Building. The Traf fic and Safety Committee made this announcement in a meeting yesterday. The new regulation, which goes into effect immediately, is the first relaxing of parking rules since the stringent regulations made after Worid War II. Students in the red sticker group should go to the Dean of Students office in South Build ing. A blue sticker with the bot tom cut off will permit use of the new area, the Committee ex plained. . Only those living outside the city limits of Chapel Hill; not including car owners with red stickers in Victory Village or Geln Lennox will be issued the blue stickers. The area for park ing does not include the concrete parkway immediately behind Peabody. Formerly, the parking space, once called "The Little Arboretum," was used by faculty car owners. After a survey had been taken by the committee, however, it was found that only one-third of the lot was being used. The lot has spaces for 100 cars. In other business, the committee (See PARKING, page 4) YWCA Worker Will Recruit Career Girls Irnia Sundling, staff member of the National Board of the YWCA will be at the University through Wednesday. Miss Sundling, a consultant on health education for the YWCA, will visit this campus in the in terest of recruiting professional workers for YWCA career work. "A career with the YWCA to day is a job with a plus," says Miss Sundling, "for our organiza tion works for and with young people. Such a career presents a real challenge to all who are concerned in helping to bring about a world in which good will, freedom, and justice prevail." "Young people today have grown up in an era of great un certainty. They need to feel that they are vitally important in shaping a bette world. The lead ers and program of the YWCA are directed toward helping these young people realize this, and to use their energies and talents for building a better life for them selves and others," she added. Miss Sundling is particulary in terested in interviewing graduate students and faculty members who are interested in YWCA work. Anyone, including under graduates, who would like to have a private conference with Miss Sundling is requested to make an appointment in the YWCA office. Frosh Speaker Al Lowenstein. University graduate and ex-Orienlaiion Chairman, will address the Freshman Assembly in Mem orial Hall at 10 o'clock this morning. Lowenstein graduated from Carolina last year and is now president of the National Stu dents Association. All students and faculty mem bers are invited to attend the assembly.

IFC action came swiftly this year after a scholarship news letter for the College Fraternity Scholarship Officers' Association indicted University fraternities for being in the scholastic "dis grace column." , "The report put Chapel Hill f raternities in the lower 10 per cent of nearly 100 campuses rated. The recommendation as passed will be presented to the Univers ity administration as a proposal to go into effect immediately that the University change the present ruling which states that before initiaion the prospective member Small Gains Made By UN Along Front TOKYO, Tuesday, Nov. - 14 (UP) American troops spear heading a limited offensive in Korea smashed forward Monday to the great Fusen reservoir and to the walls of ancient Yongbyon in the hills seven miles beyond the Chongohon River. Allied troops gained a few miles in most sectors of the 250 mile Korean front.

According to the recommenda tion, those men now pledged to a fraternity would fall under the ruling and would be required to meet the -all-C average require ment when the Administration puts the ruling into effect. With the recommendation, proposed by the Pi Kappa Phi representative, a "letter of ex planation shall be enclosed, the motion states, which shall explain why the IFC did not adopt a ten tative plan submitted last Monday night. , The earlier proposal was more harsh in its treatment of fra ternities with low scholastic standing. It provided that a fra ternity failing to maintain an overall C average for three suc cessive quarters would automati cally lose its social privileges and 'Men Are In For It?

Summer all, commanding officer of the Army ROTC unit at Harvard, said tonight he had declined to distribute an Army comic book urging freshmen to enroll in the University's ROTC program, Summerall said he sent a letter to "all accepted freshmen" in July explaining the program and that "it served the purpose more than anything else." The colonel said the Harvard undergraduate newspaper, The Crimson, had quoted an official of another university as saying Summerall had refused to dis tribute the pamphlet because it was beneath a Harvard student's intellectual level.

I thought my letter served the purpose." privilege to ; initiate during the following quarter. : It was apparent at the meet ing last night that the majority of chapters felt the penalty too harsh, and that by tightening up on pledge scholarship grades could be improved. The motion was not brought up last night. The chairman of the Associa tion appealed to the University administration to "act quickly" to correct the "huge thud" in Caro lina fraternity scholarship. The report pointed out that only seven fraternities were above the all men's average. The motion passed last night was hailed by IFC President Dale Morrison as a "progressive step on the part of Carolina's fratern-: ities. The move shows foresight," he said.

The ratioed women sneaked up behind unsuspecting campus males before the men had a f chance to get in shape -for" the4 race. It was over this weekend the Carolina Independent Coeds Association announced that the "Hooraan Race" would be held Nov. 17. But the startling revelation by the husband-hungry females was that they are not content with the more humane torture of a band of women chasing their menfolk across a field. This year they are declaring open war on the Carolina eligible bachelor. " All day Friday will be open season, they say. "Instead of the usual 'Hooman. Race' all day Fri day will be Sadie Hawkins Day," they declare, "and coeds will be able and urged to capture dates." What is worse are the rules set down for the protection of captured men. There ain't none! P. J. Warren, in a letter to all fraternity men, warned that the coeds will capture dates "by fair means or foul, for the evening's square dance in the Tin Can. "This means," the grasping coeds state, "that all Carolina males are susceptible all day in class, in the "Y," on campus, up town ..."

In GM Grail Room A bi-partisan selection board will meet from 3-5 p. m. in the Grail Room of Graham Memorial today and tomorrow to interview and 'nominate candidates for the two seats on the Men's Honor Council to be filled in the coming General Election. One freshman and one junior seat are open, both with one year terms. ' The board is composed of rep resentatives of both campus polit ical parties and will nominate candidates to run for the Council positions on a non-partisan slate, rather than having individual party nominees seek office on a political plane. ' The group hopes to interview a number of eligible students and select several cf them whose names will then be placed on the campus-wide ballot. The only qualifications are that candidates be members of either the freshman or junior class and have an interest in the , student judiciary. The campus General Election will be hold Nov. 30.

'Dollar Gap' Finished By Gordon Gray Gordon Gray wrapped lip his "Dollar Gap" project and . deliv ered it to President Truman over the weekend with the recommen dation that the United Stales continue economic aid to western Europe for three or four more years and spend up to $900, 000,000 annually in backward areas of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Gray has worked on the pro ject as special assistant to the President since last. March 31. He undertook the task after resign ing as Army Secretary to take the job as President of the University. ' In his 131-page report, Gray said a bold U. S. foreign policy is second only to military rearm ament as a means of winning the cold war with Communism and achieving a stable world peace. Mr. Truman "fully endorsed" Gray's statement that the basic U. S. objective is to encourage development of "stable democrat ic societies willing and able to defend themselves and raise the living standards of their peoples." At least two proposals .in the report are almost a certainty to provoke bitter controversy, the United Press reported -yesterday. Gray said farm price support should be modified and that direct government subsidies to the mari time shipping industry should be limited as two steps toward open ing world trade channels. 1 Ham Wade Appointed M-Sgr.

The hitch that keeps it from being a strict nominating con vention is that prospective can didates will do no speaking. According to a student govern ment official, the freshmen will be told to write down the names of their nominations for the class positions on the back of attend ance cards. The individual secur ing the highest number of these votes will be declared the nom inee for each particular office.
