Man Becomes
Cockroach:
Film Tonight
"Metamorphosis," the first- in a
series of five art films sponsored
by the Student Union Board, will
be shown at 8:30 tonight in Ger
rard Hall.
Admission cards for the five films
cost $1-50 with single tickets not
being sold. Cards may be purchased
tonight at the door.
"Metamorphosis," produced at
the University of Michigan by an
unsponsored group on campus, is
based on Franz Kafka's tale of a
man who turns into a five-foot
cockroach. It represents the initial
attempt to adapt Kafka to a feature
production in this country on either
professional or amateur level. .
This film is recognized as a pio
neering effort to incorporate all
the features of the 35 mm. films
into the 16 mm. film productions.
Edmund Wilson has called the film
"'the realistic nightmare of Kafka."

Final Action
Slated ASoon'
On New Policy
By Rolfe Neiil
Campus store profits probably
25 percent will be turned into
ahtletic scholarships if a plan un
der consideration goes through, it
was revealed yesterday.
By Trustee order the profits must
go for student scholarships, with
the "nature, number and financial
value" to be decided by the ad
ministration. Under the reported
plan then, athletics would get $10,-
000 of this year's estimated $40,
000 profit.
The plan to specify a certain
amount for athletes, if passed by
the special committee, then would
go to Chancellor Robert House for
his approval. From House it would
go to Consolidated President Gor
don Gray's desk.
The special committee was ap
pointed by Chancelor House to de
vise a plan to disrtibute the funds.
On the committee are Dean D D.
Carroll of the Business Administra
tion School, O. K. Cornwell, direc
tor of physical education, and
Claude Teague, University business
manager. Student body President
Ham Horton and several other stu
dents sat in on the committee's
meeting Wednesday.
Whether or not to allot an
amount to athletes will be definite
ly decided by the committee in a
meeting "soon," according to Dean
CarrolL The committee's plan then
would start on its round for ap
provaL At present, practically all of the
University's athletic scholarships
are awarded by the Educational
Foundation through the UNC Schol
arship Committee. Money for these
scholarships is subscribed by
alumni who are members of the
Educational Foundation.
Here's the chronological battle
oyer athletic scholarships:
Feb. 29, 1952: Following a recom
mendation of W. D. Carmkhael Jr.,
controller, the Board of Trustees
appointed a committee of seven to
investigate the student stores on
the three campuses of the Con
solidated University.
The situation prompting Car-
michael's suggestion occurred when
the Technician, N. C. State student
newspaper, published stories show
ing that a large percentage of the
campus store profits were going
solely to scholarships for athletes
Shortly afterward, Carmichael was
quoted by The Daily Tar Heel as
saying, "My hope is that whatever
profits made by the stores be de
voted to scholarships for all stu
dents in 'need of financial aid. Ath
letes shouldn't get preferential
treatment, but there should be
more scholarships for everyone
April, 18-19: The seven-member
committee, headed by Lt. Gov. Pat
.Taylor, conducted hearings at State,
r
lg-iture to disburse as it saw in. ne
other group asked that the funds
go toward a student union or out
fitting additional dormitory social
rooms. The committee asked if it
would suit for the -profits to go en
tirely toward scholarships. Both
factions agreed.
May 6: The investigative commit
tee, after its three campus hear
ings, met with the president, vice
president, chancellors and business
managers of all three institutions
before drafting the final report to

European Crisis
Is Past Peak,
Shea Reports
By Bob Slough
Frank R. Shea, former member
of the inter-departmental commit
tee which set up military and eco
nomic aid missions for Greece and
Turkey, told a political science
class yesterday "Europe and our
selves are in for a long period of
dangerous living."
But the Time-Life correspondent
said he thought the peak of peril
had been passed. "There already
is a lot of unity existing in Eu
rope," he added. "There is certain
ground for disappointment at the
moment," Shea said, "but I am
heartened at what is going on in
Europe."
The former member of ECA in
Paris told the class that Ridgway's
right flank, the Greek-Turk line
is the strongest point in the NATO
line. He said that of the 65 divi
sions in East Europe, 31 are in
Greece and Turkey.
The whole NATO idea, according
to Shea, rests in the strength of
the NATO line. NATO works under
the assumption. Shea said, that
Russia will Jiot move into
strengthened line.
In December of 1945, the Com
munist took over all of Greece ex
cept 15 blocks in Athens, Shea said.
"It was a very close call," he added.
He listed the following reasons
why the Communist rebellion was
put down: (1) stamina of the Greek
people to resist, (2) vigorous Ameri
can aid, and (3) Tito's defection
fron Stalin.
''If Greece had fallen," he said,
"Turkey would have fallen and
Russia would have realized an old
dream of breaking into the warm
waters of the Mediterranean."
Shea said the big problem in
Europe today is the program of
rearmament. "It is guns or butter,"
he said. "The only way to solve the
question of the dollar gap is for
those countries to send goods to
us."
"The Russians are not knocking
on the door as they were several
years ago," he said. "But I dont
want to preach relaxation."
"If you want to relax, just count
the number of divisions in Eu
rope," he said.

said.
Continuing, he said, "I have deep

Educational
To Be Made
University students may at
some future date be looking at
television for educational as well
as entertainment purposes.
A bill has been passed in the
General Assembly clearing the
way for a state commission to
study the role of television in
North Carolina public education.
The bill notes that the Federal
Communications Commission has
allowed tha state eight TV chan
nels to be reserved until June
2 solely for non-commercial ed-
ucational use. The act gives Gov
ernor Umstead power to have a
12 - member commission study
what use should be made of these
channels in education. The Uni
versity has been allotted a chan
nel. The bill apparently contem
plates control of these channels
by the state, probably through
the Department of Public Instruc
tion, for use as a supplement to
the teaching program. It notes
that the General Assembly "is
aware of the complex problems
Qompnasis s
(An Editorial)
Students have always wondered what happened to book
exchange profits. For years, the funds, amounting to over
550,000 at one time reverted back to the General University
fund, a. catch-all to pay salaries and improvements.
Last May the Trustees decreed that profits should "be de
voted to grants-in-aid to students selected on the basis of
character, citizenship, leadership, and complete compliance
with all requirements of the institutions concerned pertaining
to admission and normal academic progress." The Chancellor's
special committee is now seriously considering a proposal to
set aside a certain percentage of the profits for athletes. This
year's profits may amount to $40,000.
The Daily Tar Heel thinks that the Book Exchange profits
are student funds. We are opppposed to the idea that student
funds should go directly to athletes. Any percentage, whether
it's 25 per cent, 50 per cent, or one per cent is too much.
The principle remains the same. Profits are profits derived
from our pockets. If the money is to be awarded for grants-
in-aid, then there should be no qualifying clause tor a certain
type of human being versed in some extracurricular activity.
An athlete is a student first of all. The president of the
student body, the editor, etc. are all students, first of all.
The philosophy of consolidation can sometimes be carried
too far, especially when the point seems to run against estab
lished traditions and principles. Just because State College
gives a majority of its book exchange profits to athletes doesn't
make it right for UNC at Chapel Hill.
The Daily Tar Heel hopes the committee will consider
these points: How many students leave school each year be
cause of lack of funds? How many would-be students go to
smaller schools throughout the State because of the relatively
high cost of tuition and other fees here? How many people
now applying for scholarships can't get them?
The object of the grants-in-aid system as we believe it was
originally intended to be, was to establish a broad program of
financial help for all types of future students-
To slap a percentage allocation on such a program is to
disqualify eligible students. If an athlete is qualified, then
let him have a grant-in-aid. But a separate and distinct ruling
for a certain percentage of profits directed to athletes is not
in keeping with the traditions of the University.
If the receipts of the Educational Foundation, the private
financed athletic aid program, are low, then we suggest that
the University dig somewhere else besides the Book Exchangi
profits.

In assuming the presidency of

which would be posed by State
control and operation of a basic
means of communication."
In addition to deciding what
use may be made of the eight
channels, the bill assigns the
commission the task of "devising
a scheme for financing any ar
rangements." The bill carries an
appropriation of $5,000 to finance
the committee's study.
In his inaugural, Governor Um
stead called for a "thorough in
vestigation of TV possibilities to
the end that we may avoid, if
possible becoming involved in an
unwise venture."

say.

Requests End
Of Rebates To
Yaclc Staffers
By Louis Kraar
Glib-tongued Ham Horton, presi
dent of the student body, had a
long list of suggestions last night
for student lawmakers at their
first session in Phi Hall.
Following a short evaluation of
his administration, he urged the
following steps:
1. Referendum on the question
of the National Student Associa
tion to remove "once and for all"
this "political football" from poli
tics. 2. Appointment of the Secretary-
Treasurer of the Student Body to
the Graham Memorial Board of
Directors, which controls all ac
tivities of the student union.
3. "Appropriate" legislation to
be carried out to forbid staffers
of the Yack to accept rebates from
publishers which are received for
meeting datelines, and to put these
funds back into the Yack budget
Horton admitted "many inform
ed students" felt that the Student
Entertainment program should be
put on a .subscription basis. He
appointed a "special executive
committee to study the feasibility
of a voluntary system."

ly, "I am certainly not opposed to

academic ability and financial need
like any other student."
Ken Barton (SP), regional NSA
president, curtly commented on
Horton's attitude towards NSA
saying, "I was not aware that NSA
was a political football on the
Carolina campus."
He added, "I hope that Presi
dent Horton will make his position
clear and submit to me a full re
port on NSA's status."
The Student Party's candidates
for Legislature officers were, for
the most part, victorious. However,
legislators did not vote strictly
along party lines. The consenus
among most legislators was that
the session was an excellent start
to closer cooperation between par
ties. Horton also suggested revision of
the method of selecting head cheer
leader. He outlined a plan of se
lection by a bi-partisan committee
that would consist of members of
both political parties, the retiring
head cheerleader and representa
tives of the University and Mono
gram clubs.
TRAIN GOES WILD

WASHINGTON A runaway
passenger train crashed through a
barrier into Union Station here
yesterday. At least 49 patients were
rushed to the hospital, but no one
was reported killed. There was no
immediate explanation as to why
the brakes apparently failed as
the train approached the station.
The train demolished the station
