By a unanimous vote of the local Jaycees yesterady, Iris Mer ritt, runner-up in the recent Chapel Hill pageant, will go to the State contest at Winston Salem in July. With another unanimous vote, the civic group decided to send Mils Jacobs to the 1953 pageant. She was ruled ineligible for this year's contest, this week because she is six days too young. Miss Merrittr a charming bru nett in her senior year of high school, said she would be "proud and happy" to compete in the Winston-Salem pageant this year. Chairman of the local pageant Bill Alexander said yesterday that Miss Jacobs "is not all to blame in . being declared inelig ible for the Miss North Carolina pageant. She entered the Miss Chapel HilJ pageant in good faith and we are extremely proud of her winning. The disqualification occured entirely1 through the fault of the Jaycees. We knew her age, but misinterpreted the national Miss America contest rules." All 9:00 a.m. classes ...J......... .....77.. All 3:00 p.m. Classes and Bus.

Glen Harden, editor of the Daily Tar Heel, was unable to attend. The following items resulted: 1.

Clark yesterday indicat ed that he is "seriously consider ing" entering the State guberna torial race. - Clark, whose campaign to pre serve segregation recently pro voked skirmishes with students at Woman's College here and the University in Chapel Hill, stated that he had "been , getting a sur prising number of calls, tele grams, and letters from folks who want me to enter the primary with Umstead and Olive." (William B. Umstead and Hu bert E. Olive are two of the three announced candidates for the Democratic nomination ; for Gov ernor.) Clark said that he was giving the race consideration, although he has, as yet made no definite plans and does not want to jump into a primary where "so much money" was iiKeiy to oe spent Most of the support for him which h.as come to his attention, he stated, was in Cabarrus, Ran dolph and Guilford counties. Such support, he explained, has come r primarily in the past few days, after newspaper articles outlined, his views favoring seg regation. , The chief advantage of his get- oiiey plained y Associate Durham rThe National Associ ation for the Advancement of Colored People was founded , "to bring full ' citizenship to all American citizens," C. O. Pearson, regional attorney for the NAACP said here last-night. - The Durham lawyer recently charged that Negro students at the University of North Carolina law school were being "harassed" and discriminated' against in grading. He was one .of the ma jor workhorses in the move which culminated last summer with - a U.S. Supreme Court decision opening the law school to Ne groes. "". ; V ' "Wp are throwing mud on the Constitution," he told the Bench and Bar Society at Duke Univer sity last night, "wfien we permit some people to be ridiculed and denied ; the protection of law."' "Americans can sell the value of democracy to the world by working in a parliamentary framework and - earring their problems to the courts of law, he explained to the student pre- legal group. 5 " "We are vulnerable to ' attack at our weakest point," he "said, "until we let the world ' know that we have one citizenship." Speaking on "The v Legal - Work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People," he said that "one6f the associa tion's; greatest : contributions has been made through carrying legal problems to , tha , Supreme . Court.' (See KCAAPj. -page 3 " NAACP..P is.. -Ex thinking ting into the race, Clark said, would be "to give our people the opportunity to express themselv es", on the issue of segregation. Meanwhile, Clark's brother, Dave, was creating political news of his own. . Titling himself State chairman of the States Rights Democratic Party he asked the State Elec tions board to name the - party's followers to 30 North Carolina counties come March 22. The Charlotte industrialist chairman of the splinter party presented elections board secre tary Raymond Maxwell a list of 90 names three elections nomin ees from each of the 30 counties involved. The States Rights party polled 69;652 votes in the -1948 presi- dential election. Its list was sub- mitted under a law saying that in every county there shall be an elections board, composed of three voters, who shall be appointed by the State Board of Elections on the 10th Saturday preceding every primary election. "Not more than two members of "the county board .". . shall be long to the same political party," the statue continues, "and the state chairman of each political party shall have the right to re commend three electors in. each Whether the move was tied up with John Clark's announcement that he is considering running for governor could not be determined. Clark (John), a member of the University . trustees for 30 years, saw his activities concerning seg regation at the University brand ed as "his individual responsibil ity" and "inappropriate" of the board's T "official recognition,", at a trustee meeting in Raleigh last week. He had written letters to the Dialectic - Senate in Chapel Hill, as well as to home town mayors, seeking information on Universi ty students opposed to segrega tion. .Student leaders, in turn, charged , that he was attempting to "intimidate"- campus leaders with "the best tactics of the Gestapo"- and trying to be a self-appointed censor of student J opin ion., . . ., . . . -.
