Bulldogs in Sanford Stadium Saturday af ternoon. "Spirit for the game is run ning high," said Jim Fountain, Tar Heel head cheerleader. "The defeat last week didn't seem to lessen the spirit a bit in either the team or the students," he said. The approximately 300 Caro lina students who will attend the game today left Chapel Hill for Athens late yesterday and early this morning by car, bus, and train. Although there was no organ ized caravan, Fountain said, "We should have a good cheering section today." Commenting on the "fine spir it" shown by students so far this season Fountain said, "The cheerleaders will be there to day, and we and the students will stick together with the team until the end of the game." The last year Tar Heel fans staged such a rally was in 1950 when more than 1,000 students traveled to the East Georgia town to cheer the team on to a 0-0 tie. At an earlier rally, in 1948, the Carolina fans were beset by a wave of Georgia vandalism which resulted in torn-off aer ials and smashed car windows. The reception at the '50 contest was a big improvement, although observers at the time said the Georgia ' hospitality left "much to be desired." At the 1950 rally cheerlead ers required all freshmen to at tend and snake-dance through the Athens streets, but this year compulsion is out and sponsors are counting on the school spirit demonstrated in the four con tests already past, to provide the stimulant for cheering. - , , s " 1 tm : TrrJ Clark Accepts Post As At The Citadel Prexy Stilwel! Appointed By Gorham; Replaces Rejected Wolfsheimer By Richard Creed After more than a week of indecision President Bob Gorham yes terday announced his appointment of Jack Stilwelljas, attorney general to replace Lou Wolfsheimer, who was rejected by the Student Legis lature last week. Gorham's decision resulted from the contesting of the validity of . the Legislature's action by Phin Horton, past attorney general. Commenting on the appointment of Stilwell, Horton said, Stilwell is qualified to fill the post of at torney general; and Wolfsheimer is qualified to fill the post of at torney general. The president should be allowed to pick his right hand man." The appointment of Stilwell will come up for approval by the Legis lature this Thursday night. Stil well, if accepted, will resign as University Party floor leader in Legislature and as chairman of the UP. . Gorham indicated that .he has been waiting before making anoth er appointment to see what Hor ton wculd do., Horton contested the Legislature's rejection of Wolf sheimer by a, vote of 50 to 15 on the grounds that nine 'members, of the Legislature abstained, and that their abslntions should not have been considered as negative votes; "which, In effect they were." Horton. said yesterday that he just wanted to clear the matter up bojh tor tne benetit of tne Legislature and the students; The by-laws of. the student Leg islature state that "allv appoint ments to Executive and Judicial offices made by the President of the Student Body shall beTatified by a majority of . the Legislators present." GEORGE BARCLAY COLUMBIA, S. C, Oct. 23 (JP) Gen Mark W. Clark, retiring from the U.S. Army Oct. 31, will be the next president of The Cita del, the South Carolina military college at Charleston. v He will succeed Gen. Charles P. Summerall, former U.S. Army chief of staff who retired ast June after 22 years as president of the 111-vear-old institution. The office pays $12,000 a year. Clark, now visiting at Charlotte, N. C, today notified Gov. James F. Byrnes that he will accept the re cent offer of The Citadel board of visitors. Byrnes is an ex-offfcio member of the board. Clark said, however, that he can not take over the post before next March 1. A distinguished World War IT figure, Clark was supreme Allied commander in the Far East until Oct. 1. Before that, he was - chief of the Army ground forces. Clark rocketed into prominence early in the war when he went secretly by submarine to North Africa to see Admiral Darlan, in command of the French forces there after the fall of France. His conference with Darlan played an important part in the subsequent conquest of North Africa by the Allied forces. Later, Clark commanded the Fifth Army that drove the Ger mans out of Italy and knocked that country out of the war. After that, he was commander-in-chief of the U. S. occupation forces in Austria and the United States member of the Allied Commission for that country. In 1947, he became a deputy sec retary of state and sat in at coun cil of foreign ministers meetings in London and Moscow. Byrnes, a former secretary of state, said Clark proved himself a "statesman and diplomat as well as a soldier." He added that he often conferred with him about other European matters as well as about Austria. NROTC Team Off To Athens By Air Today .

Rights ROCKEY MOUNT, N. C-, Oct 23 IP) A North Carolina Negro eader warned his people tonight that they could still lose their "civ il rights battle"-because of "our in ertia, our smugness, ,and . our false security." . ' He urged them to demand leacf- ers with more initiative and bold ness. He said such leaders must be responsible and "keep abreast or ahead" of new situations. Kelly M. Alexander of Charlotte, in an address prepared for the 10th annual convention of the North Carolina Chapter of the National Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People, aid ed that he felt NAACP's program of "making American Democracy a living reality for Americans, Negro as well as white," is succeeding. 'f The address was a highlight of the convention's first session. '"Alexander, president of the North Carolina Chapter, reviewed his year's program which called for; equality of races in political ac tion, housing, education, employ ment, recreation, public health and public facilities. . Concerning education, he said: "We are continuing our legal pro gram against governmentally-im-posed racial segregation and we are nearing a climax in this fight with re-arguments before the Supreme Court in December. You may be assured of the fact that prepara tion for the re-argument of these cases is being done thoroughly and most efficiently under the direc tion of our brilliant legal expert, fie his key position in an attempt to find the right man Bullock won the nod with his excellent show against Maryland late in the game last week. Coach Wally Butts of Georgia, a Southeastern Conference school, has no quarterback problem. The nation's number one pass thrower, Zeke Bratkowski, leads the Bull dog split-T, and the key to Caro lina success is to stop the passing of this gentleman. V The Tar Heels have worked on defense against Bratkowski's pass ing all week, but the effectiveness of Bill Edwards' scouting and Steve Belichick's coaching won't be known until after this closely-rat- j ed ball game is over. Georgia now holds . a slight seven-point edge over Carolina. Captain Ken Yarborough, Tar Heel left end, returns to the lineup tomorrow after missing a week, and number one center Bill Kirk man will be ready for the first time this season after breaking his , arm in practice. Only center Junior Seawell, suffering from a sprained ankle, will be out of the lineup, though right end Will Frye won't be able to play at full speed. Carolina takes its best record in, four years into the game, a 3-1 season slate that is marred only by last week's 26-0 loss to mighty Maryland. Maryland blasted the Bulldogs, 40-13, the previous week for tne only oasis of comparison of the two teams. Jim Tatum, Terp coach, said, "If Carolina only had a quarterback, it would be a great team," and "Zeke Bratkowski is one of the finest passers I have ever seen. That sums up tomor row's contest. The Bulldogs are given the edge on the strength of "The Brat," who has pulled many a game out of the fire including the 195 con test in Chapel Hill when he com pleted nine out of 17 passes for 215 yards and a 28-16 win. The two teams didn't meet last year because of the polio ban at Caro lina. Besides the addition of Bullock to the starting backfield, fullback Dick Lackey has firmly establish ed himself on the first string with his hard running and excellent punting against Maryland. Lackey got off quick kicks of 60 and SO yards that rolled into the Terp end zone for touchbacks. He leads the Atlantic Coast Conference in that department with a 42,8-yard average for 16 punts. Halfback Ken Keller will lead Carolina's running attack tomor row, with rble assistance from right half Connie Gravitte and re placement Larry Parker who is having his best season. Keller av eraged 3.2 yards last week. Parker (See CLASH, page 3) SPE As the Tar ens, Georgia Daily Tar Heel. 2,000 cobles of will be flkfwn to the reau inihe Holman Hotel.

"From the very start one was fascinated by the warm feeling in her exquisite rendering and extra ordinary control of her voice," was the opinion of the critics who heard her sing in Stockholm, Swe den. Since returning from, abroad, Mrs. Downs has toured and given concerts throughout the nation. GM Shakes Up Former Office Arrangement There was a general shake-uo of office arrangements in Graham Memorial yesterday. "The changes were made with mutual consent of all concerned," 23 T tTT11 -HJT jrAn4-MM saia iim wauare, uneuiui terday. "The changes were for the sake of convenience," he said. So as to be near the information office on the first floor, Wallace moved from his second floor office" to the office previously occupied by Student Body President Bob Gorham. Gorham moved into Vice- President Baxter Miller's old of fice. This arrangement gives the President waiting room space. " Miiler moved into the old SUAB office, and SUAB took Wallace's old office. This gives SUAB a pri vate telephone, which they had not had previously.

It would be made clear," Gray said, "that the Atlantic Coast Con ference cannot require a team to go to a bowl. Should Carolina be invited, the decision of whether to accept would be up to the fac ulty and the administration." "However," he said, "it is, I feel, not up to us to tell other schools in the Conference whether they can accept bowl invitations." The Atlantic Coast Conference and the Big Seven lest weekend signed a contract which will .send a team from each conference to the Orange Bowl n New Year's Day. Carolina faculty inquiry as to what this means for Carolina and State College teams prompted Gray's remarks. President Gray has gone on rec ord in the past as personally op posing bowl participation for Uni versity of North Carolina football teams. Three years ago, he was one of those who helped write in the Southern Conference rule pro hibiting post-season games for conference members. Last year, he changed his mind about the best method of regulat ing bowl games. He said then he felt "institutional conscience" should be the guide, rather than conference rule. He said he was still apposed to post-season games for either State or Carolina. Last Spring, Gray outlined five conditions under which he would be willing for State and Carolina to enter the Atlantic Coast Con ference.
