UNCM
Builds His
Telescope
By Jim Wilkinson
Few people cared that last Fri
day's eclipse of the moon was ob
scured by clouds. To Bill Beard,
it was just short of catastrophic.
Bill is probably Chapel Hill's
most avid amateur astronomer.
With the aid of his home-made
telescope he directs his attentions
heavenward every chance he gets.
According to Bill, a chemistry
fcnajor from St. George, S. C, his
interest in astronomy started sev
eral years ago when he happened
upon a book on the constellations.
Like some people take to memoriz
ing limericks, Bill took to memoriz
ing these heavenly formations,
about 60 of them he estimates.
, His interest aroused, he learned
that it was possible to construct
his. own telescope. With a set of
plans under one arm and a "pile
of junk" under the other, his work
began. Still in high school, he
completed the telescope in 1950 in
somewhat cruder form than it
is now.
Using assorted nuts, bolts and
Balvaged stove pipes as his chief
ingredients, he constructed the ap
paratus for approximately $30. This
included the cost of the mirror kit
and the expense of sending the
glass to New York for polishing.
Bill can get up to 145 magnifi
cations on his telescope. That is
enough to see the moon's craters,
the ring around Saturn and various
other Celestial landmarks.
There are two other eyepieces
of 25 and 35 magnifications. These
are better for viewing such ob
jects as the double cluster in Per
cius, one of his favorites. That, ex
plained Bill, is the only double
cluster in the heavens and gives
an astronomer double his money's
worth.
When this writer visited Bill in
his room at Oid West, his silver
painted brain-child was standing
in the middle of the floor, mounted
on a permanent tri-pod.
It's pretty convenient, I remark
ed, that you can just poke the
nose out the window and observe
from here.
Wincing at such an unscientific
approach, he explained that the
instrument had to be taken out
into the open because the indoor
temperature affected it to such
a degree that vision was blurred.
Therefore, his "observatory" is
anywhere on the campus that best
6uits the purpose.
Last Friday, Bill lugged his 50
pound telescope over to Emerson
Field and prepared to observe the
eclipse. Twice before he had miss
ed the phenomena, nee because
his glass was in New York being
aluminized and again because he
was out of town.
This time he was ready.
But so were the clouds. Almost
spitefully, they drifted in just in
time for the eclipse and moved
on when the show was over.
Science marches on!

inicirecise
Gordon Gray goes before a Legislature budget committee at 2
o'clock today in Raleigh to ask for an increase in the University's
appropriation for the biennium 1953-1955.
The Consolidated University president is expected to request more
funds in the areas of permanent
improvement and maintenance of
physical facilities. The Advisory
Budget Commission has recom
mended that the Legislature spend
$6,646, 576 on the University at
Chapel Hill during the 2-year pe
riod. This is almost entirely for
operations.
This figure includes only $400,-
000 for permanent improvements
at the Chapel Hill branch, out of
$5,665,000 originally requested.
The Advisory Budget Commis
sion also refused to recommend
renewal of the salaries of three
development1' officers in the Uni
versity. Gray will almost certainly
ask that these salaries be restored.
His" development program has re
ceived much praise from educators.
Gray appeared before the same
committee last Wednesday to ask
for an increase in the appropria
tion to the Experimental Station,
a sub-division of State College.
Shorter Hours
Are Scheduled
By Bus Station
H. C. Pearce, manager of the lo
cal bus station, said yesterday that
effective Monday the station will
close at 8 p.m. four days a week. .
, This schedule. will . be , in effect
Monday through Thursday. The old
schedule of a 10 p.m. closing time
will operate on Friday, Saturday
and Sunday, Pearce said. The sta
tion will continue to open at 7 a.m.
Pearce said the shorter hours are
made necessary by a decline in busi
ness in the evening. He said the sta
tion is not making enough money
to meet its expenses at the late
evening hours.
For those who come in after the
station has closed, the outside lights ;
will be kept on and there is an out
side phone on which to call a taxi,
Pearce noted.
. Pearce said bus schedules will
remain the same and people who
ride busses after closing hours can
still meet them at the station.

Chapel Hill's American Legion
Auxiliary will hold a benefit bridge
canasta party next Wednesday at

Graham Memorial. Admission is
75 cents a person and $3 a table.
Money goes to the various Auxili
ary benefits. Everyone is invited.

As Prince Hilarion remembers
his childhood betrothal to Prin

On Feb. 2, 20 years ago, the
curtains parted on the first musi

rected by Harry Davis, who stag
ed "The Inspector General" this
season, the cast featured Foster
Fitz-Simons as King Gama, with
Samuel Selden as associate and

Twenty years ago, The Daily

a "triumph of spontaneity, polish,

Library Shows
Early Conflict
7On Drinking1
The first in a series of displays
sponsored by the English Club
is located in the west wing of
the Library.
The current exhibition em
ploys rare books, manuscripts
and contemporary illustrations to
demonstrate the conflicting views
of Addison and Steele "On Drink
ing." Their disagreement on this
point is symptomatic of a basic
personality difference which is
often apparent in their writings..
The display, which , was pre-'
pared by members of the English
Club under the supervision - of
John Schnorrenberg, "contains
many interesting literary items.
Prof. Richmond P. Bond has ldan
ed a volume containing the com
plete run of the "Tatler" in its
original sheets and a volume from
the first collected edition (1714)
of the "Spectator."
Also on display is a manuscript
letter to Mrs. Steele: "Dear Prue,
Sober or not I am ever yours,
Richard Steele."
LONDON Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden announced yesterday
that the British government has
protested to the United States
against President Eisenhower's de
cision to deneutralize Formosa.
Eden made the announcement in
the House of Commons shortly after
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles arrived here from Paris on
his fact-finding tour of Europe. It
was indicated that British anxiety
over the President's go-ahead signal
to the Chinese Nationalists to raid
the Communist - held mainland
would take precedence over Euro
pean issues in Dulles 'talks here.
