'Demos StarfWith Man' Way nick For Truman By Ken Sanford "I believe in a two-party sys tem that is balanced enough that one can put the other out of office," Capus M. Waynick, for mer U S. Ambassador in South America, told the Carolina Young Democrats Club this week. "It is a great temptation to talk partisan politics, because I believe in party loyalty," Way nick said. "The fundamental dif ference in the two parties is in the fact that we Democrats start with the man while the Repub- State Reduces Concert Prices For Carolina Carolina students may purchase a reduced ticket to the concert by Gustave Haenschin's "American Album of Familiar Music" which will be held at Memorial Auditor ium in Raleigh at 8 o'clock to night.

Industry Opposes Custom New And Old South Contrasted In Talk By Greensboro Author By Babbie Dilorio "Truth is more of a stranger than fiction in the South, prob ably because the Southerners are the biggest liars in the world," commented William T. Polk in a Bull's Head Book Shop chat this week on his recent book, "South ern Accent." The author used Himself as an examle and told of an inquiry Tie had received as associate edi tor of the Greensboro Daily News, asking for some information about a poker game which, according to legend, had been in progress since the days before the Civil War. Polk said that his reply contain- game, which actually didn't exist, and almost classified it as an in stitution. He noted that the game had teen interrupted only once when Robert E. Lee came to town. Polk thought nothing more about the incident and said that he hadj written such a detailed "story" . only because he didn't want to dis-, appoint the inquirer. As it happened, news of the( famous poker game traveled far and wide and before long he began to receive requests for member ship into the group from avid Those nominated 'from the Uni versity will be in competition with students from other North Carolina colleges. Final choice of those "to be" awarded scholarships will be made by the Central Committee and Board of Trustees of the John Motley Morehead Foundation. The basis of selection is a list of qualities laid down by More head in creating the Foundation: 1. Scholastic ability and attain ments. 2. Qualities of manhood, truth fulness, courage," devotion to duty, sympathy, kindliness, unselfish ness, and fellowship. 3. Evidence of moral force of character and of capacities to lead and take an interest in his school mates. 4. Physical vigor as shown by in terest in competitive sports or in other ways. " licans start with the institution. If you take care of the man, he will take care of the institution." In defense of former President Harry S. Truman, Waynick said, "I regard Truman as a man of integrity and courage." He said a Negro driver gave him the best answer for Truman's decision to go into Korea when he said, "Well, suh, the time comes when you are being pushed down an alley that you have to take out your razor." Waynick said he had been in vited to ramble on any subjects, and he did just that as he talked on politics, Russia, Reds in the U. S. and politics toward South America. "If Russia had a balanced two party system, I wouldn't be afraid no matter how far they practiced an economic system. I do believe firmly in free enter prise. Its system of checks and balances is the only way to en able men to have all the bless ings we enjoy and yet retain heir freedom." In speaking of Communists in government, Waynick said, "I would get them all out, but I would beware of saying to the liberal people of the world that I was setting up an inquisition." Waynick spoke of South Amer ica where he served for several years as ambassador to Nicaragua and later to Colombia. He said, "Our - future lies with these South American countries. They are our . second best market. Just on the basis of coldblooded statistics, we had better be good neighbors to them. It's good bus iness." poker fans all over the country. Polk said that few of the works written about the South are au thentic and although this southern gentleman had spent most of his life in the South, he found it nec essary to travel and investigate thoroughly before writing "South ern Accent," to find out if it's true what they say about Dixie. "Writing the book was absurd," he said, "but although it is thor oughly confusing and ridiculous, I contend that it is entertaining." tii, icHo anrl informatively rvuv iojubj - - j discussed the South, and his charm and wit mingled with his descrip tion in such a way that any Yan kee would be forced to move hisj residence below the Mason-Dixon Line. I He said that it is hard to say just what the South is, because it moves around so much and because j there are two Souths, the old and the new. He described the Old South as conservative, made up of people who are convinced not only that the Civil War turned out wrong, but that the American Revolution did as well.

'Old Soldier7 Horton Leaves Legislature By Dick Creed In an "old soldier" speech which came as a result of his defeat in the fall elections last Tuesday, University Party floor leader Phin Horton last night challenged the student Legislature "to pull itseH out of the slimy quagmire of ill re pute into which it has fallen as a result of too much emphasis 6"n party credit." Horton was saying goodbye to the Legislature which he has served for the past three years. He was defeated in the election by Jim Fountain (SP). As he spoke of "ill repute" be cause of "emphasis on party cred it," he did not mention specifically the recent hassle between UP and SP leaders over who should get credit for a student faculty-rating isystem when it is set up. In a previous Legislature meet ing Jie had called an SP bill to set up the faculty-rating program an attempt by the SP at "glory legislation." About SP overwhelming ma jority of 31 seats to the UP's 18 which the SP gained in the fall elections Tuesday, he said, "There will be, in the next session, a clear cut majority. The most partisan issues can be decided quickly and without too much debate. Think, I adjure, each time you vote on a bill, on the question of whether it's for the good of a select few party members." Horton was given a standing ovation by both the UP and SP representatives at the conclusion of his speech. It was suspected by SP leaders earlier this week that the UP would try to pass a bill tonight redistricting the campus to give the UP more favorable returns in the next elections. Said Horton, "There was no redistricting bill introduced here tonight by the so- called bitter UP. There won't be. That is the type legislation which (See LEGISLATURE, page 6) it has the. opportunity of making industry the tool, not the master. Polk also commented on south ern dialect and said that it "has aristocratic antecedents on its dia lectical tree." He pointed out that such great monarchs as Queen Elizabeth would have been as prone to say "hit don't make no nevermind," as any Southerner. Polk made ah enlightening state ment concerning Southern viol ence. It seems that the South has an altogether different pattern of violence, leading the country in murder and aggravated assault. He pointed out that North Caro lina has more cases of aggravated assault than any other state and he classified it as mostly intra -racial. With regard to politics, Polk commented, "we are beginning to send more responsible men to Washington. "The South changed its whole government from aristocratic to democratic. f "Now an almost irresistible force is meeting an almost immovable object, the force being industry, the body, old custom."

I Carl Bauguess, of 203 Manley, reported the theft of $46 from his wallet "sometime between 10 p.m. ; and 1:30 a.m." Monday night. "I was either in the shower or in the room," said Bauguess, when the money was stolen. Tuesday morning the missing billfold was found on the informa tion desk in South Building, with out the $46. A thief was a little kindef to Neil Bell, of 311 Aycock. When Bell woke up Tuesday morning, $30 was missing from his room. "They ieft me one dollar, though," said BelL He said his door was unlocked, and lie was the sack." As to the thief or thieves, Bell said, "I think it's a fellow on tEis Tuesday by the Debate Council floor." on the basis of their respective Both Bauguess and Bell men- records in the intra-squad quali tioned the names of several other 'fying rounds. They will be accom- victims of money thefts, but none were available for comment yester day afternoon. Assistant to the Dean of Stu- dents Ray Jeff eries, commenting on the thefts, said, "Sixty per cent of the students leave their doors unlocked all the time." Some even leave their doors open when thfey go home for the weekend, Jeff eries added. He stressed the fact that students should be sure to lock their rooms oveF Christmas holidays, and flock their belong ings in trunks" if possible.

Joyce, executive vice president of Notre Dame, Wednesday de clared that "there is a growing attitude intercollegiate football should be abolished" and called on universities themselves to establish safeguards against ath etic abuses. Rev. Joyce, speaking at the annual Notre Dame civic foot ball banquet, said that "it is disconcerting to find that some educators feel that all of the abuses that have occurred in intercollegiate football can be laid at the feet of spectator interest" ", . . .

In an effort to find out. a stu dent organization at the University of California at Los Angeles re cently sponsored a lecture by a local Communist, who spoke oil "McCarthyism: A Real Danger." Henry Steinberg, organizational secretary for the Los Angeles Communist Party, asserted, "The big lie of McCarthyism is the charge that anyone who disagrees with McCarthy of the McCarthyites is a spy." He added that another "big lie" is "that the Rosenbergs were guilty of spying, which I don't ' believe was true."

"Then they say, evils would die away; once the lure of gate re ceipts are removed the colleges would no longer be tempted to lower their academic standards or professionalize the players by offering under the table inducements.
