CHAPEL HILL, N C. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1953 FOUR PAGES TODAY '1 VOLUME LXI, NUMBER 99 6 Germans AOraauate' From -UNO; By John Jamison Carolina's German student gov ernment team set a new University record last night. They were grant ed diplomas by Chancellor R. B. House after only five months on the campus. The team, consisting of six hon or students from Goitingen Univer sity in Germany, came to Chapel Hill in September under the au spices of the State Department to observe student life in a democrat ic community. Last night at the Carolina Inn they were given a banquet and took part in simulat ed commencement exercises. Prefacing the awarding of the diplomas, Chancellor House told them, "You are being given a diploma ?which will entitle you to entrance into the followship of our University's alumni." He further advised them, as he does freshmen orientation groups: "If, while you have been in Chapel Hill, you have gotten some grit in your shoes, then you also have got ten Chapel Hill in your soul." The diplomas are almost identi cal to their baccalaureate counter parts, and bear the following words (punctuation added): "To all to whom these presents shall come, greeting. Be it known that (name) having resided at this -University in good standing as a '" member of the student government team has accordingly been admit ted tc fellowship as honorary alum nus, with all rights, honors' and privileges thereunto appertaining." The documents were signed by Chancellor House, Student Body President Ham Horton, Dean of Students Fred Weaver and Alumni Secretary J. M. Saunders. One member of the team, Dr. Fritz Hartmann was not present for the ceremony, having already returned to Germany. Two others, Martha Schaeffer and Helmuth Deicher, will leave this weekend for home. Otto Vehrenkamp, Hans Lambers and Eberhard Kindiger plan to remain at the University , until the end of the quarter. All six have traveled extensively in this country during their stay. They visited Washington and New York as a group over Thanksgiv ng and split up for Christmas ex cursions all over the South and East.

"In such a contest the merits of the respective candidates are seldom presented and are seem ingly unimportant. I believe that the student body has a right to expect more from its potential lead ers than mere name-calling, mud slinging and backbiting." In his opening statement which also opened the campaign Penegar named Gene Cook as his campaign manager. The naming of Cook confirmed reports that he will not be the SP vice - presidential candidate.

Mr. Jones, pastor of the Presbyterian Church here, has been asked to resign by the Judicial Commis-t sion of Orange Presbytery. He has refused. Time gives several columns to a discussion of the controversial case. Seven Chapel Hill ministers ral lied to the defense of Mr. Jones recently in asking the Commission to "alleviate suspicion in his case by making a direct statement of charges against him. which they suggested tnat tne Chapel Hill Presbyterian Church and its minister were being penal ized for "the very things which have distinguished it in the minds of many Christians." The Rev. Richard L. Jackson of the Congregational - Christian jChurch, a spokesman for the group . emphasized they had presented , their appeal to the Commission as individuals. Signers of the letter were Mr. Jackson, C. T. Boyd, Church of God, J. C. Herrin, Baptist student chaplain, W. M. Howard Jr. Uni versity Methodist Church, Maurice A. Kidder, rector of the Episcopal Church of the Holy Family, and Da vid W. Yates, rector of the Episco pal Chapel of the Cross. They pointed out that the wel: fare of all their churches in some respects rested with the commis sion "and depends upon the way in which the whole matter is re- solved. The ministers' letter said "no ! doubt the commission of Orange, presbytery has its reasons for con- ducting its investigation in secrecy but because it has issued no of ficial statement of the charges and testimony, it is impossible for the people to know the nature of Mr. Jones's fault in the eyes of the commission. "Since the church exists to pro claim the truth in love, we feel that a demonstration of the 'truth in love' in this particular case would ease the burden of anxiety (Sfe JONES, page 3) jpens Gene Cook Appointed To Manage Race; Is Ineligible For Veep the two quarters previous to the nomination. The prospective president, spe cifically, outlined his stand on three issues. They were: L "If elected I propose to set ; up a civil service system, whereby made on a merit basis, giving ev ery student the opportunity to ap ply for positions in any area that interests him." 2. "Of immediate concern to us is what happened to the efforts to get a new student union "build ing that would provide an active social program for the entire cam- pus," said Penegar. He said that 1 1j Plane To Drop Paper Hearts Here Saturday Paper hearts, 50 of them worth $1 each, are scheduled to drop on Chapel Hill tomorrow after noon. The hearts will be dropped by plane in connection with the cur rent state-wide heart health cam paign. The campaign is seeking $125,000 in funds. The Chapel Hill heartfall is a repeat performance, having been tried last Saturday. However, winds put the hearts in the wrong place fields surrounding Chapel Hill and thus far not one of the paying hearts has been cashed in. Members of Pi Beta Phi sor ority and Delta Psi fraternity are assisting in the work. Jones Battle To Be Topic Sunday evening at 8 o'clock in the Grail Room of Graham Memor ial the Carolina Political will dis cuss the current controversy in the local Presbyterian Church. Chairman Bob Pace said the fac tions involved would present their views either through personal rep resentation or statement, and fail ing this, from official records, re ports and the like. The purpose of the discussion, he emphasized, is not to say who is right or wrong, but to present clear and representative views. The student body and general public is invited to attend, discuss and reach their own conclusions, Pace said. -id Camp 0 s !H ssues the General Assembly might rec ommend a bond Issue to cover the costs of constructing the new ac tivities buildings - "I am, therefore, calling on Pres ident Horton to join with me in directly contacting the General As sembly to promote such a plan," he said. 3.

The Nursing Service has a suc cessful formula for patient care. Treating each patient as an in dividual, giving him expert pro the North Carolina Memorial Hos for making the sick well. In order to live up to this plan, the North Carolin aMemorial Hos pital Nursing Service today is the largest department m tne nospitai , from the standpoint of the number of personnel. In addition ta over 75 professional nurses (this num ber is steadily growing), it has licensed practical nurses, ward aids and orderlies.. With its busy schedule of 24 hour service, the service is re- sponsible for direct nursing care j of all patients in the hospital prop-, er and of those m the outpatient department How does this schedule operate? The 24-hour day is divided into three shifts so that each nurse is assigned eight hours five times a week. In order to keep one shift from getting a monopoly, a rotat ing plan has been devised so that a nurse will average about 10 even ings and nights at a time (longer on the day shift). The service has been busy since before the hospital's opening day. The nurses assisted in ordering supplies, gathering suitable equip ment and establishing nursing pro cedures, improving methods of nursing care and training plans. Even among the nurses there is an unofficial volunteer service. In some instances, when a graduate nurse can't do active duty because of home responsibilities, she may volunteer to do extra work. Active nurses do outside duties, too. One of the head nurses on the staff, having offered her serv ices, is now conducting a Red Cross Nurses Aid Class during her free evenings. The Nursing Service should not be confused with the University of North Carolina School of Nurs ing. Although there is close func-. tional association between the su pervisors and clinical instructors, the School of Nursing and the hos pital, of which the Nursing Service is a part, are two units of the Di vision of Health Affairs. Consist ing of six units in all, this Division of Health Affairs is also composed of the Dental, Public Health, Medi cal and Pharmacy Schools.

WASHINGTON Chances that an Allied blockade of Red China might lead to dangerous incidents involving Russian planes and war ships are being weighed cautious ly by State and Defense Department strategists.

It was learned that the risks involved in a blockade also are under study at the Defense Department, but final recommenda- tions have not yet reached Presi- detlt- Eisenhower.

Jelke took on the as pects of a Balkan spy drama yes terday and easily qualified as the most unusual morals case in the last half-century.

The board also announced that it will hold a public meeting Thursday at which the problem of Communist teachers in the nation's universities will be dis cussed. The chairman of the board said the topic is important enough for the board to determ ine the sentiment of the student body before taking a definite stand. cheduledl in AAoy -4" Law Prof Here To Help With T-H Revision Prof. Maurice T. Van' Hecke of the Law School faculty leaves for Washington Sunday night to serve on a committee of citizens to help draft administration pro posals for changing the Taft Hartley law.

A little-known play by a little known German playwright, this ex pressionist drama of the conflict of good and evil is being given its first southern production here, as well as one of the first in this country. "The Good Woman of Setzuan" is the tale of how three gods found, after a long search, one good per son on earth a woman of the town of Setzuan and how she tried to maintain her goodness in spite of the insistent greed and hate of people around her. Bertholdt Brecht, author of the play, holds a theory that audiences should never get involved in the play, but should always remain simply observers. "The Good Woman of Setzuan" is written in support of this idea, and director Kai Jurgensen has staged it accord ingly, using 12 actors playing the 24 characters of the play by chang ing costume and mask on stage. Special incidental music composed by. Tom Nichols of "the Music De partment is calculated to add to this effect. "The . Good Woman of Setzuan" will play at the Piaymakers Thea ter beginning Thursday. Tickets are now on sale at Swain Hall and Ledbetter-Pickard. In order to voice its approval of the stand taken by the Wil liams fraternity, the board vot ed to send letters to the presi dent of Williams College and ' to the Phi Delta Theta national headquarters in Oxford, O. The Phi Delta chapter at Wil liams was suspended from mem bership by its national last week because it pledged a Jewish stu dent. The chapter accepted him unanimously and the president has since stated that the chapter does not regret its action. Meanwhile at Boston Univer sity, fraternities and sororities have agreed upon a plan to re move all racial and 'religious (See FRATERNITY, page 3) 9 mi By Louis Kraar - The Legislature decided last night to hold a referendum on the National Student Association question. The referendum will be held in May, after the regular Spring elec tions. It will determine whether Carolina continues membership in the group. A month of Legislature debate, highlighted by private parleys be- tween Ken Barton, regional NSA chairman, and President Ham Hor ton, was climaxed in the session. Barton read a letter from Horton in which the president said NSA should be "relieved of the threat that continually hangs over it, of' being interjected into the political campaign." Barton said holding the referen dum at the same time of Spring elections (April) would make NSA a 'political issue. He tagged Hor ton "a person whom I can't respect for his NSA stand." Horton said his stand has been "neutral." He has in the past in dicated he was not in agreement with certain" NSA policies. Horton did not name which ones. When directly asked if he opposed the group, Horton previously has said, ' "I do not oppose NSA but I think the issue should be put up to the students." By giving the students a ballot chance at NSA, the Legislature saved Horton the trouble. Yester day, Horton pledged a personal campaign to get the necessary 10 percent of University enrollment to sign a petition requesting a ref erendum. The swearing in of Gene Cook (SP) and Sol Cherry (UP) added spice to the lengthy meet. The pair spoke frequently. At one point when Cook caustically censured Horton for his stand on NSA, Cher ry asked, "Is the gentleman ger mane?" Speaker Jim McLeod told Cook to briddle his invective; Cherry, one of the main propon ents of the, NSA referendum and a former UP chairman, said, "If NSA is so wonderful, what are NSA op ponents worried about? Are they afraid? I say they are, and I say let's bring this thing out in the Spring election." Asked by John Ammons (SP) which NSA policies he objected to, Cherry answered, "I dont think they represent the students on segregation and the Negro question." The controversial bill designed to take the Student Council out of politics finally passed. It was ve toed last time by Horton and the opinion among many legislators is that the student president will veto it again. Jack Stilwell, UP floorleader, voiced the major opposition to the bill, saying, "I think it's an admir able idea but I don't think it can be done." Stilwell proposed in place of the non-partisan selection board a plan whereby the parties would create a joint board. Honor council nominations are made by this type board now. The Junior-Senior Class was granted $1,600 for their annual party leaving $800 in unappro priated funds in the legislative money bag. A. bill also was passed making the local NSA representative one of the elected executive offices. Absent legislators were Seymour Bane (UP), William Beebee (UP), Dave Clinard (SP), Sandy Dann (UP), Don Geiger (SP), Bob Glenn (UP), Bob Grimes, Tom McDonald (UP), Everett Parker (UP), Ed Stevens (UP), and Ben Tison (UP).
