Dr. Robert Franklyn told how, a falsie can be made with plas tic and inserted under the skin. And Hollywood, never one to lag, is keeping well abreast of these trends. "A size 34, which is insuffici ent, can become 36, which is suf ficient and a 36 can become a 33, which is more than sufficient, even in Hollywood," the surgeon said, who numbers many a movie queen among his patients.

Correction Due to a typographical error, a story in Friday's paper incor rectly listed Bubber Hill, UNC student, as pleading guilty In m Raleigh court to a theft charge at State College. The story should have read that Hill pleaded not guilty. The Daily Tar Heel regrets the error. S cessfully performed the operation on 25 women, some of them well known to movie fans. The plastic, first developed by him in a soft; form, is a sponge-like substance that feels fleshy. It also can be used to build up hollow cheeks or chinless chins. The operation requires a sur gical incision that will allow the spongy plastic to be pushed into the spots required. "So far," the doctor- comment ed, "we have found it inert and well tolerated by the body. Tests on humans and animals show it is no more harmful on the body than air."

S. government's GI Bill will be sent to school by the state if a pro posed act goes through. The Military and Veterans Com mittee of the Texas House of Rep resentatives has reported favor ably on the bill and thus far no one in either the House or the Senate has spoken in opposition to the bill. The bill provides that Korean veterans attending state education al institutions will have their tu ition and fees paid by the state. But the act will not apply to those veterans who receive federal bene fits. As it is now, only vets of World Wars I and II receive state aid after their federal benefits ex pire. The proposed bill is similar to one passed to aid World War II vets. After their federal eligibility ran out, they had their tuition and fees supplied by the state for as long as 48 months. The proposed bill would apply to vets who serve during the pres ent emergency. Its benefits also would apply to the children of persons who were killed in action or died while in the armed service. Draft Status To Be Aired WASHINGTON, Feb. 7 (Special) John A. Hannah told Senators this week that the present policy of draft deferments for college j students will be reviewed. j "It worries me," the ex-president of Michigan State said, "that' there is so much validity in the statement that the son of a well-to-do man goes to college and the son of the less well-to-do goes to Korea." :V' Banquef This Week The YMCA will hold its quarter Fellowship Banquet Tuesday night, Feb. 17 at 6 in Lenoir Hall.

Shams of Colleges' US Colleges Merely Messy' Says Author Louis Brom field NEW YORK, Feb. 7 (Special) "Education at its present state in the U. S. seems to be merely messy," says author Louis Brom field in a March Esquire article. In the article, entitled "The Shame of our Colleges," the au- t hor of "The Rains Came," says "This tragic condition" stems from "our failure to discipline . our children, our tolerance of downright subversion in the schools and our emphasis on the college rather than the college education." Writing about the "ugly seed" of subversive education, Brom field feels that arguments about Marxian socialism and true dem ocracy should be presented with complete objectivity and finally, the student should make up his own mind. Such a process rarely occurs in the U. 9. and in all too CilOOl The title "Mr." and "Miss" Rep resentative Student Teacher," has been given Richard B: Wilson, Cha pel' Hill, and Margaret Dickinson, Raleigh. ; ' The honor is bestowed each year upon one man and one woman from the upper class in the school of education. A joint student-faculty committee selects the students who are to represent he University in this capacity at the annual con ference of the North Carolina Edu cation Association next month . in Asheville. The selection is made on the basis of personality, scholarship, leadership, and qualities most de sirable in a superior teacher. Dick Wilson, Phi Beta Kappa was initiated into Phi Delta Kappa, honorary educational fraternity last week. At present he is, doing prac tice teaching at the New Walter Williams High School in Burling ton. A history major, Dick entered Carolina in the fall of 1950 and will be graduated in June, 1953. Margaret Dickinson, who holds several scholastic honors, was list ed on the Dean's list, at Peace Col lege and made the Dean's list here after her transfer from Peace in 1951. Margaret is president of the physical education majors club for member of the Women's Athletic men and women. She has been a Council for the past two years and plays on the hockey team. Her prac tice teaching will begin next quar ter in a high school not far from Chapel Hill.

That Ain't All It happened the other day in Greensboro when they were intro ducing President as the speaker of the day. The person making the introduc tion recited a long list of accom plishments for the educator, men tioning his rise in the Army and the several capacities in which he served the government as a civil ian.: J ' ; ' After the impressive ist had been completed, Gray prefaced his speech with, "He forgot to tell you I was once a notary public in New York." V: many instances both teaching and textbooks degerate into mere , propaganda, he says. America's small regard for the status of its professors, unlike other countries, provides us with the answer to why many of them turn to Marxian socialism, writes Mr. Bromf ield. America thinks little of its professors and as a result they fall victim to the Communist doctrine, which prom ises everything to everybody but the staunch individualists. Under this influence many of them cease to be objective . teachers and become engulfed in propa ganda. Undoubtly this kind of teaching is one of the reasons we get such bad results from our schools and colleges. "The answer is not to - exact oaths of loyalty," -says Bro in IKE ... free-wheeling WASHINGTON President Eisenhower went a long way Fri day toward restoring the nation to a free-wheeling, economy. Ripping aside the controversial controls sys tem set up during the" Truman ad ministration, Eisenhower issued two-fold executive orders: (1) Abol ishing all federal controls over wages and salaries thus clearing the way for quick pay boosts for perhaps a million workers; and (2) junking price curbs on thousands of items, including all meat, cloth ing, furniture, restaurant meals, bar and tavern drinks, and hun dreds of household goods. Both or ders are effective immediately. THE HAGUE Secretary of State John Foster Dulles flew to flood ravaged Holland Friday and imme diately began laying the basis for an extra American aid program to enable this country to pull its oar on the Western Europe's defense team.

The professor who emphasizes propaganda rather than fact ... is incompetent and a bad influence on education and deserves discipline or dismissal." Elaborating on our emphasis on the college degree rather than the college education. Brom field feels "there are too many young people in our institutions of higher education who are there not to acquire knowledge but to get a job somewhere, or to make a club or to escape from their father's business, or, most commonly, simply to please their parents. There are too many who don't want to be there, at all and make passing marks only because their teachers nag them or their parents scare them."

Planetarium Dramatizes Dooms Day "Birth and Death of the Earth." is the new February sky fantasy at Morehead Planetarium. Visitors will see cosmic events that may have taken place billions of years ago and those which plaus ibly may occur billions of years hence. Early in the presentation our sun and another star collide. resulting in great masses of mat ter being pulled from the two bodies. Several other theories which may account for the origin of our solar system are offered and ex plained. A later portion deals with the predictions of scientists as to how life on the earth could end due to existing natural forces. Audi ences will experience an ice age and hear a two-way broadcast be tween a satellite and the last liv ing people on the glacier-trapped earth. The glaciers at that time seem to surround the audience. In another sequence- lightening streaks, across the Planetarium dome accompanied by simulated storms and tidal disturbances. The possibility that the sun could release heat and energy capable to scorching the earch is shown. The Planetarium moon falls to ward the earth, shatters into a mil lion pieces which will encircle the planet and be held there by the earth's attraction. Again the earth's population has been destroyed by volcanic eruptions and tidal dis turbances.
