The Student Party, mainly op
posing it, says the law cannot ap
ply in the coming Fall election
because of elections law technical
ities. The University Party, main
ly supporting- the new law, says
the law must apply because of the
technicality.
The question then, is one of in
terpretation of the elections laws.
If the redistricting is put into
effect immediately, Cobb Dormi
tory will be considered in one of
the dormitory districts. If not, it
will ba included in a town dis
trict. This point seems to be the
crux of the problem.
Cobb, largest of the dormitories,
holds 443 students and would
yield much weight politically un
der the new law.
Members of the Student Party,
whose main strenght lies in dor
mitory districts, claim that redis
tricting will further strengthen
the dominant University Party.
University Party officials purport
that redistricting will "bring the
student and his legislator into
closer relationship".
Jerry Cook, chairman of the
Elections Board, described the sit
uation as "highly technical" in
nature due to a "discrepancy in
existing laws."

'Big Story'
Of Graduate
A Carolina graduate, now a
reporter who turned the pages
of a classic book and found a
murder confession, will have his
story dramatized on "The Big
Story" program Wednesday night.
Sam Hood, 1933 graduate,
helped solve the murder of a
small town business man on the
steps of Carnegie Music Hall. His
curiosity was aroused by the fact
that the killing occurred in Pitts
burgh's cultural center. He sought
an intellectual angle and found
an explanation in a disciple of
a "superman" philosophy.
His write-up of the case won
the $500 Pall Mall reward and a
Dlaaue for service in the field
of journalism. It will be dra
matized Wednesday at 9:30 p.m
over WPTF, NBC in Raleigh.
Hood is a native of Raleigh.

controversy
Durham Road
Cracks After
A Few Weeks
The new highway, between
Durham and Chapel Hill is
cracking, just weeks after its
completion, and the blame is
being tossed around like the
proverbial hot potato.
Numerous cracks in th scen
ic thoroughfare are the result
of the State Highway Commis
sion's failure to permit the dig
ging of adequate drainage ditch
es, according to the Nello L.
Teer Construction Company.
But according to the High
way Commission the cracks are
the result of a decision by the
Teer Company and Chapel Hill
and Durham to surface the road
with a smoother but less per
manent material than that orig
inally agreed upon.
Nello Li. Teer Sr. said yester
day, "There has been no sug
gestion by the (commission)
engineers or anyone from the
commission that we wouldn't be
paid for the repair work."
However, the commission
pointed out that the highway
has not been accepted by the
state and won't be until it is
carefully inspected.
Ike Boosters
Hold Meet,
Adopt Name
A ffroun of surmorters for Gen-
eral Eisenhower for President met
in Phillips Hall Thursday night
and adopted the name of "Citizens
for Eisenhower," patterned after
other such organizations in the
state and the nation.
The meeting was organized by
George Schroll, graduate student
in physics. The first thing on the
program was an address by
Grady Pritchard, Chapel Hill bus
iness man, He gave reasons why
he, a Democrat, was voting for
Eisenhower.
Ham Horton, president of the
student body, was elected chair
man of the group. In connection
with his position in student gov
ernment and the Eisenhower
group, Horton had this to say," I
want it to be understood that I
assume this position as an indivi
dual who is deeply concerned over
the present political situation and
in no way would pretend to rep
resent student government, tne
student body or anyone except
myself."
Other officers elected were Ann
Page, vice-president, tjen xoiea-
nnn. secretary, and Ben James,
treasurer.
The group decided to hold the
next meeting on Monday, October
20, at 8 p.m.

if he is elected president. His
speech opened his campaign in

against giving the states title to

The pill will contain thousands of

grown in a fertilized hen's egg.
The viruses will then pass into the
blood stream and the blood will

$30,500 Gift Is Made
To Health Division
A grant of $30,500 has been
made by the Health Information
Foundation to the University. It
was announced by Chancellor
Robert B. House.
The gift will enable the Uni
versity's Institute for Research in
Social Science to make a two-year
community health study.
"This is a major move toward
developing social science research
in connection with our expanding
programs in the health and medi
cal fields," Chancellor House said.
Admiral W. H. P. Blandy is
president of HIF, a new founda
tion recently established by the
drug, pharmaceutical and allied
industries for the purpose of gath
ering and distributing basic infor
mation about health.
Directors of the study here will
be Dr. Floyd Hunter, associate
professor of social work, and Dr.
Cecil G. Sheps, research professor
of health planning and director of
Celebration
in Latin America. It was particu
larly well received in Chile, since
it was the first bibliography of
its kind ever compiled in that
country.
Dr. Leavitt is also the author of
bibliographies of Argentina, Boli
via, Colombian, Peruvian and Ur
uguayan literatures, as well as
numerous other studies of Span
ish American literature.
It is in recognition of his work
and his personal acquaintance
with Jose Toribio Medina that he
received the State Department
appointment.
