Simpson-McConnell A Family Team Father-Daughter Educators Reunite On University Faculty By Elizabeth Alexander A father-daughter team is hard to beat, and this one forms a rap port between Harvard University and this University. The team got together in Chapel Hill this week and no doubt full reports on both institutions were exchanged. Former Brigadier General James S. Simmons (UJ5.A. ret), now Dean of Harvard School of Public Health who attended the national meeting of the Association of Schools of Public Health in Chapel Hill, got a behind-the-scenes view from his attractive daughter, Mrs. Frances Simmons McConnell, administra tive assistant on the Continuation Education Program of UNC's School of Public Health. Dean Simmons is author of a number of books and articles on experimental bacteriology, preven tive medicine and tropical medi cine. He has been awarded the Stern berg Medal, the Sedgwick Memor ial Medal, the USA Typhus Com mission Medal, the Carlos J. Fin- lay Medal, the Walter Reed Medal, and the Distinguished Service Medal. Mrs. McConnell began her duties with the School of Public Health here last February. She graduated from Sweet Briar College and took her master of science degree in public health here in 1951. She has been information anal yst for the American Red Cross and was associated with .the Chron ic Disease Division of the U. S. One From Mitchell Society Bureau Chief Astin Retained After Stormy Protests Filed WASHINGTON, April 18 (Spe cial) Secretary of Commerce Weeks, faced with stormy" protests over his ouster of Dr. Allen V. As tin as director of the National Bur eau of Standards, announced last night that Astin will remain in the post for several months. Then he will be given a job of comparable grade where, Weeks said, his abilities will be used "in the national interest." Weeks said he had never questioned the in tegrity of Astin or the bureau. One of the many protests filed with Weeks came from the 69-year-old Elisha Mitchell Scientific So ciety at the University of North Carolina. The society is composed of faculty members and research staff of the various science de partments of the University. "We, along with other scientists in the world over, have had com plete confidence in the Bureau, in its personnel and in the integrity of its reports," the resolution to Weeks stated. ti.

Seasons Show Set To Often At Planetarium Final showings of "Easter, The Awakening" will be given at the Morehead Planetarium through to morrow night. Today's perform ances wil be at 2,3,4, and 8:30 p.m. The popularity of the Easter story is attested by the fact that more than 15,000 visitors have wit nessed it since opening on March 24. On Tuesday, a new presentation entited "Reasons for the Seasons" will open. Several special demon strations of this showing are com pletely sold out. "The causes and effects of cer tain physical factors involved in bringing about our seasonal sycle will be presented in this program," Manager A. F. Jenzano said. "Con trary to a common misbelief, sea sonal changes are not due to the varying distance between the sun and the earth as it travels in its elliptical orbit about the sun. "Actually, we are closest to the sun in the winter and farthest in the summer!

Here The resolution passed this week by the society called the dismissal "incomprehensible" and "incon sistent with the administration of the government of a free and dem ocratic people." Following is the complete text of the resolution: "Therefore be it resolved: 1. That the Elisha Mitchell Scientific So ciety voice its objection to the manner in which Secretary Weeks has summarily dismissed the Dir ector of the National Bureau of Standards, since such methods are an affront to science and scientists. "2. That the Elisha Mitchell So ciety deplores the intimation by Secretary Weeks that the play of the market place' should color the objective reports emanating from the National Bureau of Standards, for if such a policy should ever be adopted, the value and integrity of the Bureau would be completely destroyed. "3. That the Elisha Mitchell So ciety call upon the Secretary of i m fCAHPUS SEEN High School students in Ren dezvous Room wildly cheering antics of exhibitionist Carolina piano player.

Map Stealers, Duelers Are On The Loose Spring-like weather probably wasn't the reason, but no other ex planation was offered as to why a student would steal a may of North Carolina from the office of a dorm itory housemother while two other gay blades carried on a French accented epee duel in the Y Court Saturday morning at 3 a.m. The duel happened after four students marched into the Y Cour with epees and masks. Two of the students acted as seconds while the other two battled around the Y Court like two characters out of an Arabian movie. After several parries and a couple of thrusts they left.

Commerce, and if necessary ask Congress to intervene, to have an impartial and unbiased committee, composed of experts, examine at the earliest possible date into the merits of AD-X2 and related sub stances, rendering a full report and interpretation of their findings to interested scientific bodies and to the public. This is essential and necessary for the following reasons "(a) If the implications of the Secretary of Commerce are true that the Bureau of Standards is guilty of issuing prejudicial and unbiased reports, and, therefore is no longer the impartial fact-find ing body it is designed and we still believe it to be, then the sooner the matters are aired and correct ed, the better. "(b) If the accusations of the Secretary of Commerce are without foundation, the Bureau deserves to have its name cleared promptly so that the public may continue its reliance on the Bureau . and its reports with renewed confidence." Annillo QB Standout'; Whiles Nearly Ge Tie By Tom Peacock Fullback George Wallin scored twice to give the Blue team a 20-14 edge over an evenly matched White team before 6,000 people in the annual Carolina intra-squad game at Kenan Stadium yesterday. The game ended with the Whites only nine yards away from the CUSC Groups Aren't Official, Says Horton By Louis Kraar What President-elect Bob Gor ham will do about student con solidation is anybody's guess. But outgoing President Horton, of the same party, has voiced some def inite views on the situation. "I don't think that any of the Carolina groups were authorized to represent Carolina," commented Ham Horton on last week's Con solidated University Student Coun cil meeting in Greensboro. Horton's remarks were directed at the meeting of the three school student government group which he has already said doesn't exist anymore. The controversy started last month when Jim Adams, head man for Carolina in CUSC, and President Horton quit the big council. "In spite of the difficulties that we have had in getting our feel ings across to the students, I want to tell them how much I appreciate the many men in the dorms and houses who have told me that they backed our stand," continued the student body president. "Space doesn't permit a com plete explanation of my feelings," he pointed out, "but I hope the students will have confidence that everything we've done has been in a sincere effort to protect Caro lina." 1 . Adams quit the group, he said, because it was serving as a "gag for student opinion." Horton's ob jections have been that the CUSC could develop into a super student government under its present set up and be supreme over the cam pus student government. Horton also contends that since the prob lems of the three schools are dif ferent, they must be handled sep arately. WC spokesmen said last week that Horton started efforts to break down CUSC last fall. Horton said that it was not true. "I want to reorganize so that it (CUSC) can't work to erect a super student government that will choke out Carolina's independence," Hor ton declared. Carolina actually had three dif- ' ferent groups at the CUSC meet ing last week original CUSC members, four more appointed by he Legislature and President Horton's CU Day Committee. Tom Sully, CUSC president and a Carolina student, recognized all but Horton's committee. And com mittee members said they were only representing Carolina as far as the day's plans were concerned. The CUSC, according to its con stitution, acts as a liaison between the Consolidated . University ad ministration and students. It is made up of 11 delegates from each of the University branches. The big student council decided that it still exists and that Horton is still a member, whether he likes it or not The CUSC said that Hor ton, by virtue of being Carolina's president, is a member of CUSC. "I had not realized that CUSC had already become so powerful that it could take upon itself the duties of our own student Coun cil," commented Horton.

Carolina's coaches and fans got their first look at the new one platoon system, but the quarter back problem is still unsolved. Be sides Annillo, his freshman team mate, Doug Farmer, turned in a creditable job, as did Blue quar terbacks Charlie Motta and Lou Britt. Marshall Newman, freshman who ended the season last year as first string quarterback, played a few minutes at halfback, but an in jured thumb prevented him from working under the center. The Whites, captained by full back Bob White, jumped into a 7-0 lead with only 2:32 gone of the first quarter. End Don Main er set up the touchdown inside the Blue 30 yard line by recovering Flo WorreFs fumble. On fourth down, Annillo ran to his left, was trapped, and threw from the 27 by end Dick Starner on the five. Motta batted the ball, but Starner made a desperate catch as he fell into the end zone for the score. Halfback Billy Williams converted. The Blues got the score back with five minutes left in the period. After taking Williams punt to the White 36 yard line, Motta direct ed Parker and Wallin down to the five where Wallin bulled over. A bad center prevented Motta's attempt at the conversion, and White kept a 7-6 lead at the end of the first quarter. The Blues struck again with 7:13 away in the second quarter to cli max an 84-yard sustained drive. Lou Britt directed Blue backs E. C. Smith, J. C. DeWeese, Sonny Ridenhour and other down the leld, and threw a 10 yard pass to end Van Weatherspoon to set up the score. Weatherspoon took the toss on the White 25, raced to the 10, and Deweese scored two plays ater from the one-half yard line to put the Blues ahead, 13-7. Linebacker Paul Hursh intercept ed Motta's pass on the Blue 35 to put the White team in scoring po sition. Annillo kept the ball on the option, swung around left end, picked up some good blocking and scored standing up with 12:33 gone. (See BLUE-WHITE, page 4) Dorm Men Tomorrow is the last day for men students to reserve dormi tory rooms for summer school or the fall semester, the hous ing office said yesterday.
