The Interdormitory Council an
nounced yesterday that a semi

work on entertainment would be
made.
The Council expects soon to re

social rooms would be modeled
after the first one.

being moved as fast as they can
be handled, and we are anxious
to get the dorm social rooms fix
ed up as fast as possible, he con

18-Year Draft
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14 (UP)
The Senate, Armed Services Com
mittee voted unanimously, today
to draft 18-year-olds for 26
months service but stipulated
that no draftees regardless of
age could be sent overseas with
out four months basic training.
Local draft boards would have
to exhaust their supply of eli
gible older men before inducting
18-year-olds.
The bill also would order draft
boards to call up as many 4-F's
as possible for limited service
and would wipe out present ex
emptions for childless husbands
and other men with only one de
pendent. Veterans still would be
draft-proof.
The measure gives military of
ficials authority to enlist 25,000
aliens a year for five years. At
the end of their terms of service
the aliens would be eligible for
citizenship.

Sees Threat
To Economy
Prolonged conditions of war or
near war will so accustom this
country to governmental con
trols that the system of private
enterprise may be lost altogether,
is the opinion of Dr. Edwin G
Nourse. noted economist and
author, who was Chairman of the
President's Council of Economic
Advisors from 1946-49.
' Delivering .the second in a ser
ies of three Weil Lectures on Citi
zenship in Hill Hall last night,
Dr. Nourse said that war restric
tions, coming so near together,
are the "most untoward develop
ment in our economic evolution.
"While I do not think it need
do so, I am very fearful that it
will habituate us to extensive
controls over an extended period
and create such a. distortion of
plant development, labor admin
istration, and price income struc
ture that we shall not be able to
reconvert to peace in the future
without serious loss of our pri
vate enterprise system.
"The decisive issues are embed
ded in the spending, the taxing,
and the control programs being
hammered out today in Wash
ington by men who in law and in
fact are the representatives, of
the people back home."
Dr. Nourse was introduced by

Chinese Reds
Renew Battles
On Long Front
TOKYO, Thursday, Feb. 15
VP) Chinese Communists, ignor
ing stunning losses to four shock
divisions, renewed massive as
saults along a bloody 20-mile sec
tor of Korea's central front early
today in an attempt to score a"
major breakthrough. .
Front dispatches said fighting
still was in progress after United
Nations forces, buttressed by
powerful artillery and air sup
port, smashed the first waves of
the Red onslaught Wednesday
and held their lines firm.
At the same time South Korean
marines staged a spectacular
commando-type raid on Wonsan,
east coast port 90 air miles North
of the 38th Parallel.
While General MacArthur pre
viously ruled out any sustained
U.N. drive north of the old polit

the Communist supply port and
drove to the Wonsan city limits
under the protective fire of al

On the western front, U.S. in
fantrymen, including Puerto Ri

Reds who infiltrated United Na

enemy troops used civilians as
shields. Some 250 more' Reds were
captured in a wild melee that

When Joseph Caldwell, first
president of the University, set
out for his new home on Oct. 31,
1796, he was confused about the
name of the town because he had
been told it was called New Hope.
"New Hope," written by James
B. Meade, is the story of some
incidents in the life of the first
president and the troubles he en
countered in making the Univer
sity a leading institution in the
South.
Dr. Caldwell was beset with
difficulties when he came to
Chapel Hill. When he started

in the backwoods, and sometimes

Astronomer Plans
To Continue Shows
On NY Television
Dr. Roy K. Marshall, direc
tor of the Morehead Plane
tarium and head of the De
partment of Astronomy, has
resigned, it was announced
yesterday.
The resignation is effective
March 1. Marshall has been di
rector of the Planetarium since
it opened in May, 1949.
In accepting his resignation,
Chancellor Robert B. House said
"on behalf of the entire Univer
sity and Mr. Morehead (John.
Motley Morehead,: NeW York
philanthropist, donor of the
Planetarium) and for the thou
sands of our people who have
enjoyed his great . gifts of in
formation and entertainment, I
express our thanks to Roy Mar
shall.", Dr. Marshall, in his two
years at Chapel Hill, has become
widely known not only in the
University community for his
dramatic and informational stories
and shows about the heavens but
throughout the state and nation.
As a national figure, he is seen
on two television shows weekly
from the New York and Philadel
phia. area.
In his resignation to Chancel
lor House, Dr. Marshall said "it
has been a thrilling experience
to pioneer America's sixth plan
etarium (the only one on a col
lege campus in the world), but
I believe it can now get along
very well without my personal
services, while I go on to more
intensive work in fields which
have, heretofore, been only side
lines . . . If, at any time, I can
be of service to the Morehead
Planetarium, I shall be very
glad to do whatever is in my
power."
.
Dr. Marshall said that he would
continue producing and present
ing the two television shows, his
own three-year-old "Nature of
Things," devoted to fundamental
science, -and the educational com
mercial that he presents on the
Ford Dealers of America program.
He will also continue his news
paper writing and his writing of
two books on science for the
layman.

appointed to a five-man commit

Commission to plan a permanent
exhibit on nuclear energy for the

The party decided to postpone
nominations for class and coun

of a bill in the Legislature to
create a special board to select
council nominees. v
The controversy over a non
partisan board to nominate the
head cheerleader broke out again
"when Bill Prince, Chairman of
the SP, told the members the
plan was opposed by the groups
that would be represented on
the board.
"Pat Faireloth, the only mem
ber of the non-partisan board
still on campus, told me that he
did not see how it would be pos
sible to put this plan into action.
Faireloth also felt that party
nominations would be better,"
Prince said.
He added that there seemed to
be a similar attitude among the
other groups which have a seat

Coed Council
Loses Power
Over Rules
The Student Council has
ruled that the Women's Coun
cil no longer has jurisdiction
over violations of - coed house
rules, Chairman Larry Botto
announced yesterday.
Botto said the ruling came
on the grounds that the
Women's Council did not have
the right to try the coed de
fendant in question.
The Council heard the ap-;
peal Tuesday night.
"The appeal," Botto said,
"was based on the grounds
that being tried by the
Women's Council for failing to -sign
out of a dormitory for an
all-night stay was unconsti
tutional, in that the Women's .
Council does not have juris-,
diction."
Botto said the previous trial
was voided and the case was'
remanded to the proper court,
which is the House Council of
the dormitory involved.
The section of the Constitu
tipn under which, the ruling
was made states, "Each
Women's House Council shall
have original jurisdiction in
all cases involving infractions
of the house rules by residents
of the house."
The Student Council will
meet with the chairman of the

which will be visiting many uni

of Laughton's readings of ex
cerpts from the Bible and Shake
speare on tour last winter.
As Laughton himself express
ed it, "Everybody prophesied dis
aster. But, lo and behold, au
diences came out of the ground.
There seems to be' enormous
audience for this sort , of thing."
"Don Juan in Hell" is a 90-min-ute
play within a play, rarely per
formed in this country. Laughton,
who personally directed the pro
duction, will play Mephistophcles,
while Boyer will perform Don
Juan, legendary romantic rascal
of literature.
Sir Cedric Hardwicke will be
the Spanish commander whom
Don Juan killed on earth before
they all met again in this Shavian
heaven. .Agnes Moorehead por
trays Donna Anna, the command
er's daughter whom Don Juan
had courted.
Laughton had long believed
this scene from "Man and Super
man" was Shaw's finest work, and
when it was suggested by his
manager that he take a play on
tour, this was his immediate
choice. "It is a discussion of sex,
life, economy and everything un
der the sun in extremely witty
terms," says he.
He then says he wrote to Shaw
"an extremely frightening thing
to do." The 94-year old author's
"very nice" reply gave him per
mission for the scene to be done
separately from the whole work.
In quick succession, he spoke
to Boyer, Hardwicke and Agnes
Moorehead, and to his great de
light, they were as enthusiastic
as he. Preliminary- rehearsals
were begun at once in Laughton's
home.
