C, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 14, 1953 t FOUR PACES TODAY XI (iDSDTD Vdfi D"D (5(o)giei;D Education's Big Three Are Listed To be educated, Dr. Archibald Henderson said last night, there are three great realms of knowledge in which a person must be oriented: cosmos, society and art. The distinguished educator, scien tist and historian elaborated brief ily on what he considers the funda mentals necessary for an education today in the true sense of the word. Dr. Henderson, for many years pro fessor of mathematics here, spoke to the inaugural session of the Philanthropic Assembly. He opened his address with the anecdote of the Yale graduate who, Immediately upon receiving his di ploma, rushed to the telegraph of fice and wired home "Educated." A simple, eloquent but ridiculous word, said Dr. Henderson, ridicu lous because there Is no end, no finality to education. A university, he pointed out, can only offer a person the everlasting pursuit of education. Touching first on the need for an orientation to the universe, Dr. Henderson said the immensity of the cosmos might tend to make men feel very small. Actually, he con tinued, an understanding of its size should heighten him immensely in dignity, greatness and significance; because it is his brain that has grasped and analyzed the cosmos. "It behooves us then, each and everyone, to acquaint himself to the limit of his faculties with the nature of the cosmos." It is curios ity, but more a sense of insecurity that drives men on in quest of ways to command and control the forces, of nature, he said. Dr. Henderson emphasized a growing need for orientation in so ciety at all levels local, state, na tional and international.- "The recrudescence of giant trusts, the fascistic ditatorship of vast industrial organization, the for midable cycles of business varia tion known as 'boom and bust, which seem inherent in a capitalist civilization, the global tyranny of king dollar, were mentioned as some of the conditions that great ly need our intelligent attention on the international scene. On the local level, he named Jim Crowism, lobbyism, municipal corruption and slums as those things which are becoming glaring ly apparent in America. To correct these inconsistencies in our way of life will require the high patriotism, shrewd brains and liberal judgment which only true (See EDUCATORS, Page 4) Bill Acker To Head IDC Bill Acker, a senior from Winston-Salem, recently was appoint ed president of the Men's Inter dormitory Council, succeeding Paul Somerville, who resigned Monday. Acker was vice president of the council before the appointment. Acker says plans for the future include the regular interdorm dance which will be held either April 11 or 18. An effort is being made to get Johnny Long or Woody Herman to play for the dance. The job of amending council by laws will begin Jan. 26. They will be voted on two weeks later. Election of a new vice-president will take place at the council's next meeting. m NO SATURDAY PAPER ' Readers of The Daily Tar Heel are reminded that due to finan cial difficulties the paper does, not publish on Saturday morn ings.

N BRIEF WASHINGTON A Justice De partment offer to compromise its antitrust action against an alleged international oil cartel bogged down yesterday amid hot words pointing to almost certain rejection. One ma jor defendant, Standard Oil of New Jersey, turned down the offer and thus apparently killed hopes of compromise since the government offer was made on condition that all of the companies concerned ac cept it. Standard Oil has called the proposition "cold and outrage ous blackmail." DURHAM Gov. William B. Umstead is resting well at Watts Hospital where he is reported re covering after suffering a mild heart attack here Sunday. His con dition is described as "good." Dr. Ralph G. Fleming prescribed a "short period of rest" for Gover nor Umstead after his heart condi tion was discovered. SEOUL United Nations fighter-bombers unleashed two 220-plane attacks on the main Manchuria-to-Korea supply route yesterday while protecting Sabre jets destroyed or damaged four Communist MIG-15's attempting to break up the strike. An early morning attack by 220 planes on five bridges north of Sinanju was followed up Dy an equally large Allied strike yester day afternoon. RALEIGH The 1953 General Assembly, now in its second week, likely will receive a bill calling for a 825.000,000 bond issue to im prove facilities of the State's mental institutions. Some $13,000,000 or more would be spent at Camp But- ner This is the amount Gov. Wil liam Umstead had in mind in his in augural address when he recom-1 mended a bond issue lor tne men tal institutions, according to the governor's brother, Rep. John W, Umstead of Chapel mxi. FISH HAVEN, Idaho A big search party gathered at Beaver Basin south of here yesterday to set out for the burned, crumpled wreckage of a C-46 troop transport which crashed last week with 40 persons aboard. Two para-medic rescue troopers, who spent a lonely night long vigil in subfreezmg weather by the wreck on White Pine ridge about seven miles west of here, found no survivors when they parachuted to the site Mon day The plane vanished Wednes Hav'' mi route from Seattle. to Ft.

The first is a listing of the veteran's educational or vocational goal Nurses' Dorm Boasts Phone In Each Room By Sally Schindel How would you like to live in a dorm complete with a telephone in each room, modern - kitchens on every floor and elevators? You can have all these luxuries and more if you're in the School of Nursing, which moved into new living quarters the week before Thanksgiving. On the first floor of this three story brick building, which resem bles an apartment house from the outside, are three date parlors, all furnished like home, in different 'color schemes with soft rugs, com fortable furniture and paneled walls. The graduate students and visiting faculty each have private parlors. Also, with an eye toward comfort, on the mam floor is the Reading Room or the Nurses' Li brary, a division of the Medical Li brary. Another section of the same floor houses a practice lab for second year students with 10 beds and equipment similar to that found in hospital wards. In this part of the building are two classrooms the dean's office and an ultra-modern faculty lounge on the same style as the date rooms. The future nurses can impress dates with their domestic skills in the basement's complete kitchen unit equipped with a stove, refrig erator and sink combination. Ad joining this is a large recreation room, which has a piano and, soon, a. juke box. Down the hall are several storage rooms. With.two elevators at their serv ice, the students have no trouble reaching the second or third floors. Besides having a choice . between blue, gray, pink or green walled rooms, there are deep closets, Vene tian blinds, huge mirrors and tele phones. The girls may receive calls only. The deck beds, one layer high, are deep enough to have two long drawers on the des.- For nursing students who don't want to eat in the new Medical Cafeteria, opened during Christmas vacation, both v floors have two lounges and kitchens, which can be used for snacks or entire meals. Also on the second floor" is the Nutrition Lab where a -student learns to cook- what she wishes. VI CO ? and the second is a statement of how he proposes to reach the goal. A careful consideration of both the goal and the means of reaching it is vital, the Veterans Administra tion said, because the Korean GI Bill provides that a veteran may may make one change in his course after he has started it, but no more than one. Examples of goals would be law or medicine as professional aims; college diploma as educational aims, or carpentry or plumbing as vocational aims. Examples of the listing for meth ods of reaching the goal would be a statement of the highest degree to be gotten, if a University course is involved. If the veteran does not aim for a degree in his educational training, he should list the actual subjects which will be taken under his plan. In vocational training, a description of the kind of work should be given. Korean veterans wishing to ap ply for education or training who are not sure of their goal or meth od of reaching It may receive vo cational guidance from the VA On the application form they snouia cnecK me oox wmcn re- quesis guidance. For benefits under the GI Bill, veterans who have served in the armed forces anywhere in the world may be eligible. There are now approximately 1,500,000 such veterans, the VA said, of whom many are expected to apply for education or training for the com - ing Spring term. Carolina's Each Day By Tom Parramore ! "Ninety-one point five on your FM dial, this is the University of North Carolina . . . WUNC, Chapel Hill, with studios in the Communication Center." Thus the voice of Carolina identifies itself seven days a week. Now in its second quarter of operation,' the student station . has put itself over to the, student body and is working on plans to ' make it one of the finest. ' For program material, WUNC calls on several sources. The Na tional Association' of Educational Broadcasting and many commer cial and non-commercial agencies, including the British and French Horton For Continuing SEC Fare By Louis Kraar SEC programs are as much for education as entertainment," said President Ham Horton " yesterday, commenting on political rumors concerning possible abolisnment of the programs brought here dur ing the year on student fees. He stated he was definitely for the programs. "If any change is made, it should be to spend more for them," he declared. The high cost of these programs and relatively few students who can attend them has centered political and campus attention on them in somewhat more than a casual man ner. Both Student and University Party leaders have indicated that Legislature may make revision in the present setup. Horton did, however, say that he might consider appointing a com mittee to investigate the possibili- ties of a subscription type Student Entertainment program. This has been editorially suggested by The Daily Tar Heel. University Party legisltaors sup ported a bill in Legislature last quarter to give SEC more money. "But you see how it was refused," Horton pointed out. He indicated further that he doesn't particularly favof putting the programs on a subscription basis. "Frankly," said President Hor ton, "I don't think students would pay to see a lot of the really cul tured programs that are so much a part of their educations. But it's there for all now, and they are more likely to attend." Asked if he would mention SEC in his Legislature address Thurs day, he declined to comment. He agreed with opponents of SEC who have pointed out that it was actually impossible for each stu dent to attend because of the small size of Memorial Hall where the programs are held. Memorial Hall seats 1,600 of the 5,000 or more students enrolled.. He cited this year's programs as "good examples of how much stu dents want them." The U. S. Ma rine Band and the Festival of Song have been presented thus far this school year. Both programs had (See SEC, page 3) SP Solons Tag Leader Sophomore Joel Fleishman was picked Monday night to lead the student Party's legislators, party 0fficiais announced yesterday.

Own Station Is On Air With Varied Programs Broadcasting Companies, are sources of all types of programs ranging from educational talks to light and classical musical programs. WUNC also produces shows of its own and tape rec ords speeches and special events around campus. Among other sources of pro gram material are Hill Hall, which provides records and rec ordings of recitals, and the School of Business Administration, which has discussions on business. The station also has reproduced talks by noted persons, including Gov ernor Umstead's inaugural ad dress.

Shea, editor and for eign correspondent for Time Inc., will give a series of three speeches here tomorrow. Shea will speak to Dr. David G. Monroe's political science 81 class at 10 a.m. on "Ridgway's New Right Flank the Importance of Greece and Turkey to the West."

At 2 p.m. he will speak in the Grail Room, Graham Memoriral, on Latin American Ferment Peron Exploits our Neglected Good Neigh bors." This speech will be made to a group of students interested in Latin American affairs, but it is open to the public. Shea recently has returned from Argentina where he was chief of bureau for the magazines Time and Life. With Life photographer Leonard McCombe, Shea was ar rested by the Buenos Aires "pol itical police" in February, 1951 in connection with the peaceful at tempt by the employees of "La Prensa" to return to work.

Healy decides whether or not the broad casts will be of interest to UNC students. By staying 6 or 7 days behind agency schedules, he manages to be prepared for strikes or other delays.

Many people had expected the meeting to be a showdown between Jim Tatum and Stu Holcome for the job, and perhaps it was but, no definite answer was made pub lic. Tatum is Maryland's coach and Holcomb is at Purdue.

Many observers felt that the de lay would be a decision against Ta tum but council members made no comment. Others felt it meant Holcomb would not be asked and the delay meant that George Barclay, Snav- ely's assistant during the past sea son might again be gaining ground. The Tar Heel aide enjoyed early popularity in the race but was not as prominently mentioned of late. Though the council's lack of de cision leaves the race as wide open as before, observers continue to align on one of the three sides. All three candidates have im pressive coaching records with Ta tum's probably the most glittering considering the one-loss aspect. His nine-year coaching record at Caro lina, Oklahoma and Maryland is 68-18-5. Holcomb, who moved from West Point as an assistant to the top spot at Purdue, has a lifetime mark of 24-29-1 all of his games in six years of stiff Big Ten competi tion. Barclay came to Carolina last Fall to assist Snavely in installing the Split-T formation after the Grey Fox switched from his old standby, the single wing. Barclay brought Washington and Lee its greatest success while head coach there, taking the Generals to the Gator Bowl in 1950. He has wide acclaim as one of the best offen sive line coaches in the game. Both Tatum and Barclay were players before going into the coaching end of the game. Tatum graduated here in 1935 and then followed Snavely to Cornell when the Carolina coach moved there. MARINES OFFER COMMISSIONS TO SENIORS, GRADUATES A majority of college seniors and graduates who enroll now for the Marine Corps Officer Candidate Course which will be conducted in March, will receive specialized training, Maj. F. C. Caldwell, USMC said, yesterday. Major Caldwell said officer train ing programs are open to both col lege graduates and seniors who graduate between now and March 1. Applicants may be married or single. He advised interested col lege men to contact him at the Na val Armory 7246 for an interview.
