At 3 O'CIock; 19 Girls To Be Presented
Nineteen Carolina coeds will be presented as sponsors to units
of the AF ROTC Wing during a formal review on Navy Field Tuesday
afternoon at 3 o'clock. . ,
The first such organization to be established in this area, the
Sponsor Corps was initiated to ad?
to the esprit de corps of the ROTC
unit and to assist in the planning
and execution of social functions.
Members of the Sponsor Corps
were selected from a field of 63
girls nominated by the various
sororities and women's dormitories
on campus. The basis for selection
included beauty, brains, social
graces and interest in aviation and
air power.
The organization of the Sponsor
Corps parallels that of the AF
ROTC Wing, and is commanded by
Diane Breslow, Rahway, N. J., who
holds the rank of Honorary Cadet
Colonel. Miss Breslow was elected
to her office during the first meet
ing of the Sponsor Corps. Her staff
is composed of Judy Landauer,

Display Shows
Bookbinding
By Swedes
By Betty Johnson
A display of Swedish bookbinding
is now in the lobby of the Library.
The display was arranged by
George Bentley, a library adminis
trative officer, in cooperation with
the Swedish Association of Master
Bookbinders, the Swedish Institute
of Stockholm and the Swedish Em
bassy at Washington.
- The books have been chosen pri
marily for the quality and beauty
of their bindings, in order to give
a jucture of. Swedish icraftsmanship
in bootanaHngr library officials
said.
Both hand-bound and machine
volumes are included in the exhibit.
"As most Swedish books are pub
lished in paper covers, many pub
lishers there have their own book
binders who make high quality
bindings for the books at a special
price," a library news bulletin
said. "Most books are available in
three different editions, paper
cloth or leather binding.
"The publishing companies, as
well as the master bookbinders, of
ten employ well-known artists to
design the bindings for them. Some
of the best known publishing hous
es have sent examples of their
bookbinding to this exhibit."
The practice of Swedish booklov
ers of having their favorite volumes
bound by a master bookbinder is
rapidly disappearing because of the
" A nationwide campaign to inter
est . outstanding young men and
women in the teaching profession
moved into high gear this week as
regional . selection committees
throughout the country began
screening nearly 1,000 nominees
for the National Woodrow Wilson
Fellowship Program.
Applying to higher education the
positive recruitment policies that
have been followed for many years
by business and industry, the Wil
son Fellowship Program amounts
to systematic coverage of the Unit
ed States and Canada in attracting
to teaching some of the talent that
is being lost every year to the oc
cupations and professions whose in
ducements seem more compelling
and rewards more obvious.
Wilson Fellowships, Prof. Court
ney Smith, national director of the
program, said yesterday, "are
awarded upon invitation only and
only upon nomination by responsi
ble members of the academic pro
fession. The criteria for selection
are the highest qualities of intel
lect, character and personality,
with the. selection committees
looking mainly to the graduating
classes of colleges and universities
in making appointments."
In essence the program, estab
lished at Princeton University in
1945, enables members of the pro
fession "to say to a group of high
ly qualified young men and wom
en that they have confidence in
their promise as teachers and scho
lars and that they are therefore ex
tending to them an opportunity to
find themselves intellectually, to
try out their interests at the grad
uate level and thus to determine
whether they wish to enter the
profession t teaching iuadseholar
ship." -;.. V
With the program's expansion
on a nation-wide scale, the Wilson
Fellowships have been nnderwr-
ten by the 37 members of ttfe
American Association of Universi
ties and by two recent foundation
grants $300,000 from the General
Education Board and $500,000 from
the Carnegie Corporation of New
York, both for a five-year perioTl.
Earlier grants from the Carnegie
Corporation for the Program as it
operated under Princeton's dir
ection totaled $150,000.
The Wilson Fellowships, 100 of
which will be awarded this year,
carry a guarantee of an adequate
living for one year at any graduate
school in the United States, Canada
or abroad. Students in any college
or university are eligible, but no
student can apply for the awards

Fusion Of 'Religion,
Science Needed Today
The need to resolve the stresses
and the strains in the world of to
day is a fusion of religion and
science into a common unity.
This view was expressed at the
University by Dr. Hugh S. Taylor,
dean of the Graduate School of
Princeton University, who spoke in
Gerrard Hall this week on "Science
and Religion: A Roman Catholic
View," His appearance was spon

"Unless we can ennoble the ma

outlook is dark indeed. Our physi

Army Defends
Battle As Not
An Exhibition
SEOUL The battle of T-bone
Hill was being fought all over
again here yesterday.
This time it was the entire
Eighth Army Headquarters, not
just a part of the .Seventh Divi
sion. The Eighth Army defended
controversial Operation Smack as
a fully justified, well-planned but
imperfectly executed military op
eration. t
- It was the military's answer to
congressional criticism that the
battle was a throwback to Roman
gladiator shows. ,
Sunday's 150-man raid on the
western. Korean Jta&trwas. in no
way designed as a demonstration
for spectator benefit," said a
three-page statment from head
quarters. The raid was witnessed
by field commanders and1 news
men who were give ngaily cover
ed printed programs prior to the
attack.
Meanwhile in Washington, the
chairman of the Senate and House
Armed Services Committees
agreed afte rreading secret Army
reports that the operation "was
necessary for tactical reasons."
Three U. S. soldiers lost then
lives and 61 were wounded while
attacking an "enemy installation
which threatened our forces."
The Eighth Army statement
said: "In Operation Smack, two
infantry platoons were used in
co-ordination with the tanks, ar
tillery and air. As is possible in
any operation, certain things
went wrong; co-ordination be
tween the various elements was
faulty and the operation failed
of perfection."
It was also pointed out that the
printed timetables were "no dif
ferent materially" from briefing
notes prepared for any operation
using several service arms.
Part of the Congressional cri
ticism seemed to arise because
on one page of the time table the
Army used the word "scenario,"
primarily a theatrica lterm.
Despite the fact that "certain
things went wrong" the U. S. at
tackers succeeded in destroying
Chinese Red bunkers, killing
from 13 to 38 Reds and "prob
ably wounding severa ltimes the
number killed in action."
The America nforces proceeded
o nschedule until the infantrymen
neared the Communist bunkers
and were caught in a vicious Cross
fire of machine guns.

"There is no necessary reason
why a scientific world civiation

"The rationalism that is necessary
to the ordering of the material
world in the minds of men need
not be divorced from a religious ap

. It is at the boundaries of science,
where it can go no further into ul
timate reality, that religion can
take up the task, Dr. Taylor said,
adding that together they can see
life and see it whole.
The task of reconciliation, the
fusion of devotion both to scientific
and Divine truth, falls upon "those
of us who recognize the duality of
our nature, who think in terms not

. RALEIGH, Jan. 31 (Special)
He thought a, smaller group could
do a better job.
Sen. R. Grady Rankin of Gaston,
chairman of the 16-member Senate
Committee on University Trustees
has set up a sub-committee to
screen nominations for election to
the board. He called on the House
Trustees committee to do the same.
The sub-committee would work
jointly with a House sub-committee,
if one is named, and the results of
their work would be subject to ap
proval by the full committees prior
to transmittal to a joint meeting
of the House and Senate.-The elec
tions actually are made in these
bodies.
There are 27 or 28 seats to be
filled on the Board of Trustees of
the Consolidated University. Twenty-five
result from the expiration
of terms this year. Several Trustees
whose terms do not expire have
died, and this Assembly will fill
those vacancies.
Holding its first meeting, the Sen
ate committee adopted a suggestion
by Sen. J. William Copeland of
Hertford that "we deem it our duty
to nominate one person, and only
one, fo reach vacancy." Any other
nominations, Copeland said, "should
come from the floor of the joint
session of the General Assembly
when it is held."
The committee also approved a
motion, advanced by Sen. Hamilton
Hobgood of Franklin, that in con
sideration nominations the commit
tee should take into account "prop
er representation" for Carolina
alumni, for State College alumni,
for Woman's College alumnae, for
the public and for women (there
is a statute requiring that at least
three ofthe..-Trjustees,be women).
Hobgood's motion also called for -"proper
geographical representa
tion" with "as many counties as pos
sible being represented where cap
able persons are nominated and
available."
Each nomination, Hobgood's mo
tion said, must be accompanied by
a detailed "summary of the nom
inee's past achievements and pub
lic service and qualifications." -
Rankin was instructed to confer
with Rep. Ben. Fountain of Edge
combe, chairman of the House com
mittee, and request him to submit
the same plan to his committee.
January 7 Rankin made it known
he was opposed to the practice of
naming legislators to the Consolid
ated niversity board. Several law
makers agreed with him at the time
of his speech.
On the subcommittee for the Sen
ate, Rankin named Copeland, Hob
good, William B. Shuford of Cataw
ba, Robert W. Proctor of McDowell
and Edwin Pate of Scotland. Cope
land is chairman.
Among the University Trustees
whose terms expire this year is
John W. Clark of Franklinville.
Clark has been a stormy figure in
student life and created quite a
ruckus last year with his investiga
tions into students' segregation
views.
