The Daily Tar Heel And Sex
Would the campus rather haye . us. publish no pictures
at all? Would the coed populace prefer Charles Atlas or Mr.
America, instead? ' O ,''
We think first of all, that Miss Monroe is news. Today's
communication represents the first complaint from the male
element of the campus. We have heard other murmurs from
coeds concerning prints of Miss Monroe published in The
Daily Tar Heel. , ,
Most of the prints have served a purpose. A
movie in which Miss Monroe participated was in town. Ray
Anthony's band was in town. Or Miss Monroe had recently
made a statement that had been widely publicized.
The Daily Tar Heel believes in pictures as one form of
communication in presenting the news. It will continue to
present the news with pictures, with the objective of keeping
students informed.
We suggest the following sonnet for our letter writers
consideration:
X C VI
Some say thy fault is youth, some wantonness;
Some say thy grace is youth and gentle sport.
Both grace and faults are lov'd of more and less;
Thou mak'st faults graces that to thee resort.
As on the finger of a throned queen
The basest jewel will be well esteem'd,
So are those errors that in thee are seen
To truths translated and for true things deem'd.
How many lambs might the stern wolf betray
If like a lamb he could his looks translate!
How many gazers mightst thou lead away
If thou wouldst use the strength of all thy state!
But do not so. I love thee iq, such;, sort, r
As thou being mine, mine is thy good report.
......... William Shakespeare
A Hitch In The Weather
We try to keep up with the weather. But because we send
the material on this page to the shop a day early, we sometimes
fail.
A. Z. F. Wood's comments on the arrival of spring fell
somewhat flat as the iceman painted the poplars and oaks with
a silvery glaze. As we slid to classes on our slippery walks, we
couldn't help enjoying the invasion of Yankee weather for a
brief visit to the Sunny South. You might say that weather
is one of the binding ties between the North and Southh. It
gives us a brief glimpse into the storms, the blizzards, and the
skiing, and skating, and sledding. We get a tiny sampling of
sludge, and muddied streets.
Think of it. Montreal: zero weather; New York, a low of
21; Boston down to 12; our nation's capital, shivering with
a low of 22; Charlotte ranging from 36 to 34. Yet Dallas main
tains the tradition with a high of 72; Birmingham enjoys the
spring with 81; Savannah relaxes under 76; and New Orleans
hits 82.
The weather: strange, unpredictable, and the topic of
thousands of conversations.

"We Got To Stop Reckless Spending'
Once upon a time was a group
of professors at a fictional uni
versity. One 6f the professors had been
at the university for yea many
years. He was a lousy teacher, it
was agreed by all students and
his lectures were an abomination
to the soul of the studious.. But
the persons who hired him had
been too tenderhearted to sug
gest that he fold his tents and
make like the Arabs..
Another professor had also
been around for many years. But
he was an ear-banger and a boot
polisher, and none dared to raise
a voice against him. For he sat
high among the hallowed.
There was still another pro
fessor who father had had plenty
of jack. The father, deciding he
couldn't take it with him, left
it to the fictional university
with the provision of course that
his idiot son be made a profesor.
And so it was done. For it is
well-know that in the time of
this fictional university, the love
of money was the root of all in
iquity. And there was another profes
sor who was also not among the
higher ranks as a lecturer. But
this professor had once written
a book, and managed to have it
published. So he rode on his
reputation, and taught practically
nothing. But everyone said, "He
is a great professor. He once
wrote a book."
Also among the professors was
one who had studied abroad. In
fact, he had a Ph. D degree from
a foreign university (which, luck
ily, no one knew he had bought
from a forger). And this profes
sor was acclaimed by all, for
when any topic of discussion
came up, he would say. "Now
when I studied abroad, we decid
ed the answer was thus and so."
And everyone agreed it must be
true, for it had been -decided
abroad.
Now those who were not stu
dents especially acclaimed all
these men, for they had not suf
fered under their tutelage. And
those who graduated were gene
rally ashamed to shatter the il
lusions of the others. So the il
lusion persisted.
And as time passed, and these
professors lingered - on and - on
like a summer cold, they grad
ually became the oldest in ser
vice in their departments, and
thus were made department
heads. And the unenlightened
rejoiced, for they said, "Ah, now
we have fine men as department
heads."
And the students also rejoiced,
and they said, "Ah, at last we
have got the . old buzzards as de
partment heads, where they will
be put out of the way."
Then one day, these professors
all died, and being essentially
romantic, everyone remembered
only the few good things about
them, like the way they fed pea
nuts to squirrels and so on. So
the professors were eulogized by
all and sundry.
And universiry buildings were
named after them, as well as
newborn sons.
This, my children, is how a
myth originates.

A Pre-Co!lege Habit
NEW HAVEN, Conn. (I.P.)
Disclosing for the first time pre
liminary results of a five-year
study into the drinking habits of
American college youth, Robert
Straus, research associate at Yale
University's Laboratory of Ap
plied Physiology, reports that
four out of every five college
men who drink began their drink
ing before entering college.
"We hope the study will help
create a better understanding of
student behavior on the part of
persons affected by such activi
ties, such as residents . of the
college town, alumni and pa
rents," he declared.
Data was secured by the Yale
survey at 27 colleges and uni-
CROSSING THE INTERNA
TIONAL DATELINE We're
flying at 8,000 feet over the chop
py Pacific, and no one on board
quite knows what time it is or
whether it's today, tomorrow, or
yesterday.
We've been racing the sun for
about 20 hours now. It's come
up behind us, sped by, and drop
ped into the water miles ahead, as
our DC-4 plods along toward the
Far East.
Wake Island is the next stop.
That tiny green dot in the vast
ocean blue is invisible tonight,
however, to everyone but the
pilot and his radio.
The four throbbing motors
outside in the dark fill the cabin
with a feeling of security, and
you know that wherever that
green 'dot ahead is, the giant
plane will seek it - out and settle
on it like a huge eagle return
ing to his aerie, after a night's
hunting.
Hawaii and its summer weather
are behind us. We flew in over
the Islands just before noon with
Wakiki, Diamond Head and Pearl
Harbor sparkling beneath us in
the midday brightness.
A three-hour stop at Honolulu's
versities in the country. A total
of 17,000 students took part in
a wide sampling of student drink
ing habits and attitudes toward
drinking. "The probability that a
young person will 'drink at all,"
Mr. Straus said, " is closely re
lated to the practices of his or.
her parents. Of the men whose
parents both drink, 90 per cent
are themselves users. However,
only half of the men (51 per
cent) whose parents both abstain,
drink. An even more striking re
lationship between parental use
and own use is - 6een now for
the women. "Where both pa
rents are users, at least 83 per
cent of the "women drink on oc
casion. However, when both pa
rents abstain, only 19 per cent
of the women students drink."
Of the American women students
who drink, 65 per cent also start
ed drinking before entering col
lege, the survey disclosed.
Editor:
Sex has reared its ugly head
in The Daily Tar Heel far too
frequently in the past few weeks
to escape an humbly pious pro
testation from the less-libidinous
area of the student body. We,
the self-appointed censors of the
public morals, have viewed with
increasing alarm the inexcusable
lack, of good-taste shown by the
editor of the "Daily Police Ga
zette" in trying to boost his cir
culation by flagrantly displaying
the denuded carcasses of Mis
tress Marilyn Monroe and other
damsels of delight in various ob
scene poses.
Succulent slices of cheese
cake" featuring 'melon-breasted
maids (the melons are usually
over-ripe) in spicily suggestive
postures, garnished with juicy
portions of deviled derriere or
heaping servings of rump roulade
. are being crammed down our
throats despite our "retched"
complaints of revulsion and ex
treme nausea.
Cease and desist, we beg you
Mr. Dear,, before the wrath of
the clergy is directed from vari
ous pulpits against your shame
ful wickedness. If the imminence
of springtime has stirred certain
erotic desires in your breast, we
would suggest that you channel
your pent-up energies toward
more constructive, rewarding and
healthful activity, like taking long
walks in the bracing air of the
surrounding countryside.

International Airport, and we
were off again, chasing the sun
which had gotten a healthy lead
on us.
At sunset, the ocean was hidden
beneath a carpet of thick cumu
lus clouds that stretched to the
horizon on all sides.
It seemed that we were in a
special new world of our own.
There were valleys, and plains,
and canyons, and enormous pink
mountains that reached up hun
dreds of feet from their bed of
fleece to catch the dying sunlight.
Behind us.Hawaii; ahead, Wake
and after that just 2,000 or
so more miles of Pacific before
we welcome home in Tokyo.

Oh Marilyn, My Marilyn
Last Sunday and Monday this Tar Heel town,
Had a chance to spend some of its dough,
For a truly great actress appeared here on film,
I refer to blond Marilyn Monroe.
The streets they were mobbed with delirious boys,
Who loudly cried "bravissimo,"
"At last we've a chance and we'll take a long glance.
At twentieth's' Marilyn Monroe."
A "high water mark for the screen," so they said.
She's not satisfied with one beau,
She "hit with the power of Niagara itself," .
Of course I mean Marilyn Monroe.
Oh, the falls are all right, there's no doubt about that,
Niagara puts on a great show,
But it doesn't compare with that lass, oh so fair,
Called Marilyn (the body) Monroe.
Her golden hair shines in the bright summer sun,
Her black eyebrows tilted just so,
We'd give our life just to have such a wife,
As innocent Marilyn Monroe.
She electrifies all with her grace and her charm,
Her intellect's something to know,
She relies on her mind almost all of the time,
Thank heaven for Marilyn Monroe.
Without benefit of those lace underthings,
(Her covering's never de trop)
She cries, "I don't believe in concealing what's me,
For my name is Marilyn Monroe."
She acts with the force of the Barrymore clan,
Her lines are the height of the show,
With impact, suspense, she eclipses the falls,
Here's an Oscar for Marilyn Monroe.
Oh! said is the town, for our sweetheart has gone,
Though Niagara continues to flow,
So the poor lonely men must just wait until when,
They again can see Marilyn Monroe.
If she comes around to this town any more,
I'll be quite glad to forego
Any movie she's in, for her acting's a sin,
So the devil with Marilyn Monroe!
The Happy Time
Tonight our basketball . Tar
Heels will meet their first Sou
thern Conference tournament
test under their new coach Frank
McGuire.
When McGuire came here this
season after a successful tenure
at St. John's, he inherited a non
descript team of temperamental,
individualistic players, along with
some inexperienced youngsters.
He has molded this group into
the best cage team at Carolina
ia several years, and the first
to finish above the, .500 mark in
three seasons.
The Tar Heels are still not
world-beaters. They still have a
long way to go. We doubt that
they will advance far in the
tournament this year. But we
can only remember the old say
ing in sports circles, "There'll be
other years."
Basketball at Carolina seems
destined to become better and
better in the next few years. And
the influence of the schools of
the Big Four is expected to cause
an improvement in the caliber
of high school teams in the state,
making more North Carolina boys
available for Big Four teams.
McGuire, when he came to Cha
pel Hill, said he liked Carolina.
And after being here for a sea
son, he may rest assured that
the feeling is mutual.
