It's Cold Outside!

Even George Scurries
As Winter Hits Campus
By Joyce Adams
It snowed here yesterday.
Hard to believe at. first, per
haps, but students soon were
convinced and bundled up against
the grim weather. Even George
the campus collie, shivered and
headed for the warmth of the Y.
For the first time since school
started there v were no coffee
drinkers on the steps of South
building, and even the ping-pong
players at Graham Memorial gave
up.
Down in the library students
gazed out the window, hypnotiz
ed by the falling flakes, and a
coed reached a hand gingerly out
the window to watch the stuff
as it melted on her glove.
Some students failed to recog
nize their friends bundled up in
coats, scarves, earmuffs, and as
sorted old army gear.
If you thought it was cold you
were right. The weather bureau
says it's the coldest November
sixth on record, the high tern-

Art Exhibition
On Display At
Person Hall
An exhibition of water colors
and drawings, selected from the
annual exhibition of the Whitney
Museum of American Art, is being
shown in Person Hall Art Gallery.
Many nationally known Ameri
can artists are represented, such
as Lyonel Feininger, John Marin,
Morris Graves, Hans Hofmann, and
Jackson Pollock. Their works set
the pace for the exhibit, reflect
ing in ' their various styles the I
many facets of contemporary art.
Also shown are works of Rich
ard Koppe, Willem de'Kooning, and
Gabor Peterdi. "The many styles
do not detract from the impact of
the exhibit, but rather compliment
one another. This assures a ct
heasive and forceful review of the
important elements of modern
art," said John Alcott.

Today it will start warming up

is due to a storm off the coast
of North Carolina which has

Chapel Hill service stations
yesterday reported a boom on
anti-freeze that started early, in
the morning and never let up.
One service station said they
had about 30 cars at a time all
day long. Another station re
ported having 12 boys doing no
thing but put In anti-freeze
since 8. in the morning and esti
mated that by 4 in the afternoon
they had serviced over a thous

a lot of calls for coal and oil,
since most people seem to wait
for the first cold snap before
getting in their fuel supply.
The clothing stores downtown
had a run on topcoats, raincoats,
hats and gloves. One clothing
merchant said he had sold out
all his rain hats, and most of his
felt hats, besides doing a brisk
business in heavy tweed top
coats. Other stores also report
ed heavy sales in weatherproof
apparel. '
Doctor Linker
Helps Launch
Cobb Smokers
Dr. Robert L. Linker, professor
in the French department, opened
a series of Cobb dorm "smokers"
this week.
In an informal chat with aBout
100 Cobb men, Dr. Linker dis
cussed "the good old days in Chap
el Hill," stressing the fact that
student-faculty relationship is hot
now as close as it once was.
Dr. Linker brought out that if a
better relationship could be built
up college life would mean
much more to students, and alum
ni returning to the campus would
feel they were returning home to
visit old friends.
A leader in promoting better
student-faculty relations for many
years, Dr. Linker was awarded a
Di-Phi award last year for his ef
forts along this line.
It was appropriate that Dr. Link
er be chosen as Cobb's first guest
speaker because it was largely
through his efforts as a dormitory
club member while a student here
that the first provision for social
rooms was made.

Princeton Prexy Denounces
ROTC As 'Intellectually Thin'
PRINCETON, N. J., Nov. 6
The Reserve Officers' Training
Corps structure in the American
college is made up of subjects that
are "intellectually thin" and man
ly concerned with "dull memoriz
ing of detailed facts," according
to President Harold M. Dodds of
Princeton University.
Dr. Dodds said that this is the
most basic faculty criticism of
the system and Is a sound one.
"The defects in the ROTC studies
should be corrected," he added.
His remedy calls for a close
integration befween college and
ROTC courses, and a closer alli
ance between academic and mili
tary professors. He pointed out
that "total war is more than a
strictly military problem. The
'know why' is an essential element
of the know how' and should be
part of the equipment of an ROTC
graduate."
At Princeton, Dr. Dodds pointed ;
out, the history department has
opened a new course in military
history which is required for
ROTC students and also open as
an elective. Results have been
pleasing to both academic and
military professors.
He also suggested a course in
geopolitics. "Officers and civilians
alike need fuller knowledge of the
economic as well as political uses
of manpower and resources, and
of the impact of military policies '
upon our economy," he said.
"Collegese should be permitted
to compress the courses into few-

Gray Not Impressed By
Merii Of Accreditation
The question of accreditation for Carolina's un-accredited School of
Journalism brought comment from President Gordon Gray yesterday.
"I'm not impressed by accreditation,", he said,
"I feel," Gray said, "that, an ag-
credited standing is not very
important, for the School of Journ
alism." Moreover, he said, "J am
not convinced of tUft worth of
accreditation in general, except
in cases involving legal require
ment." Gray's comments , came in re
sponse to Daily Tar Heel ques
tions. The Daily Tar Heel recently
took an editorial stand in opposi
tion to t!ie selection of Dr. N. N.
Luxon as Dean of the Journalism
School. The editorial suggested
Luxon, a Ph.D., was chosen over
present professors in the school in
order to bolster the school's' case
for an accredited rating.
But Gray said accreditation
didn't enter into the decision. He.
said he felt there are some schools
with an accredited rating which
"don't match" the Carolina School
of Journalism.
Accreditation for a journalism
school can come from any 6T a
number of national accrediting
agencies. The school here has not
been accredited since it became a
school several years ago.
SUAB Frolic Features

The televised North Carolfha
South Carolina football game will
be the main feature of today's
Saturday Afternoon Frolic, which

entertainment. It will be at the
Main Lounge of Graham Memor
ial. Sponsored by the Recreation
Committee of SUAB, the Fr0!ic,
which is held on Saturdays of
out-of-town games, will be pre
sented from two to five o'clock,
er classroom hours and exercises.
The cure for the scholastic thfn-
ness of the ROTC curricula is not
to load on more of the same
stuff," Dr. Dodds continued.
The criticism that civilian and
military discipline do not mix is
without foundation," he said. He
pointed out that discipline in the
ROTC has little semblance to dis
cipline in actual service duty.
"The campus remains distinctly
civilian in spirit, and the same
is true for the officer candidates,"
ne concluded. -

Poi'fi cos Still
Confused Over
Probe Rhubarb
By Richard Creed
Student Party and University
Party leaders yesterday apparent
ly didn't know just what President
Bob Gorham's Orientation study
committee had done or what it
was supposed to have done.
One SP member of the commit
tee refused to sign the committee's
report. Another SP member signed
the report Thursday, but later the
same day indicated he would with
draw his name. Still another SP
member signed the report, But
agreed with those who refused to
okay it that there was a statement
in it which had no business being
there.
And there's one SP man who
didn't sign the report because Bill
Brown, chairman of the commit
tee, couldn't find him Thursday.
This one was reportedly "glad
that they didn't find him."
Then there's the UP point of
view. Three UP men on the com
mittee signed the report. Their
fourth man went to the first com
mittee meeting, got sick, and spent
the next two weeks in the infirm
ary. He said yesterday that he
hasn't seen the report and doesnt
know what the committee has
done. And one of the UP men who
did sign the report said yesterday
that the SP members' point in not
signing the report "was well
taken."
The whole thing started about
two weeks ago when Gene Cook,
chairman of the SP, accused Gor
ham of choosing too many fratern
ity men as orientation counselors.
Cook threatened to bring a bill
before Legislature to create an
Orientation investigating commit
teee. But he and Gorham went
into a compromise huddle, fn
. which Cook asked that a commit-
tee be set up to study orientation
and that an equal number of men
j from each party be put on the
I committee.
, Cook said that his charges must
be answered. Both Cook and Gor-
ham agreed that politics should
not enter into the committefis
operations. Gorham set up an
eight-man committee with Brown
as chairman. Cook, Gordon Fores-
iter. Joel Fleishman and Don Geie-
er were appointed from the SP; I

religion as creeds and beliefs. If
one thinks of religion in thesfe
ways, he doesn't have much. Reli
gion should be an integration of
everything."
He pointed out that the YMCA
could be the means by which the
student "comes to a higher reali-
zation of fellowship with God."
Mr. Jones added, "We are, as col-
lege students, apt to run from this
fellowship because we do not
understand it."
"In the academic field," he
said, "we learn a lot about eco

Allocation
Said Okay
At Present
By Charles Kuralt
President Gordon Gray yester
day defended the Admiinstration
allocation of $10,000 of last year's
campus store profits to athletic
grants-in-aid.
Gray said he thought the funds
25 percent of the $40,000 store
profits- "should have gone to ath
letes under the circumstances.".
But he made' it clear he doesn't
think a slice of the mqney should
necessarily continue to go for
athletic grants in the future.
The $30,000 bulk of the funds
went into the University's general
scholarship fund, but will be ad
ministered as "grants-in-aid."
It was "a combination of fat
tors," Gray said, which led to the
Administration's allocation of the
money to athletic grants.
These are two
of the factors
he referred to?
The profits
from the stores
were turned
into grants-in-aid
last year by
order of the
University
Board of Trus
tees. The Board
GRAY
gave the Administration a free
hand with regard to "nature and
number" of the grants. It avoided
mention of the word, "scholar
ship." It did not make scholastic
attainment a prime basis for mak
ing the awards.
And at the time of the alloca
tion of the $10,000 to athletes, St
least $30,000 of book store profits
was going for athletic subsidy at
North Carolina State College.
Because of these two situations,
the Administration felt justified
in delivering the profits slice to
athletic grants here.'"
However, Gray pointed to his
statement on the subject made
two days ago. In that statement,
the President indicated he is
!not convinced scholarships de
rived from student money should
be earmarked for athletes, or "any
; P-rticular group of students."
Store profits allocation at State
is being steadily reduced by Ad
ministration order. It is believed
this could mean elimination of the
allocation for athletic grants at
both State and Carolina in the
next few years.
And Gray reminded of two
other facts: That students other
than athletes benefit by the pres
ent arrangement. They get $30,000
in scholarships they have not re
ceived before.
In addition, Gray said, "In all
this discussion about what should
be done with the money, we are
likely to overlook the fact that
athletes are students, too."
"I believe," he said, "that the
normal scholastic average among
participants in varsity sports is
higher than the student body
average.".
Gray indicated a detailed Ad
ministration statement on the
grants-in-aid question may be
rightly relate ourselves to thirigs
that we eat and wear, people we
know, we have missed some
thing," the pastor continued.
He said that the University Is
a good place "to learn to appreci
ate people. Now is our chance to
get out and relate ourselves to
people of different faiths and out
looks. This is part of the avenue
of life that the Y offers."
"If you can bring the things of
life, relationships of people, and
the relationships of the ultimate
together, you have brought every
thing together," added Jones.
"It is difficult to live a whole
life, yet, until you do, you don't
find the true purpose of yourself
and the University," he concluded.
