Kuralt, speaking after Peacock, pointed out, "I'd like to make it clear that Rolfe ! Neill isn't -run ning for editor of The Daily Tar Heel." Neill, Kuralt said, "has a right to say what he wants." He went on to explain that he didn't agree "unequivocably" with the present editor's stand. (Earlier Pea cock charged that Suralt had en dorsed Neill's editorial policy "un equivocably.") In answer to a question from the audience of about 15 students, Peacock said that although Neill hadn't censored his writing on big time athletics, the editor had ex erted "subtle pressure, though I nothing that could be called out ! right censorship." Answering another question Kur- alt declared, "I am a great deal mre satisfied with the Carolina sports situation than the present eauor. Peacock replied to a question j concerning alumni giving money to itbletes saying: "I'm against the University giving money to play ers. But if some of the alumni give privately to subsidize ath letes, I would consider it "their right." Kuralt said he opposed this practice. Track coach Dale Ranson, in a lengthy talk, strongly criticized present DTH editor Neill for "dis- respect to the president Of the chancellor and president of the University.

She was al so a member of the Orientation Committee, and is a member of Pi Beta Phi Sorority. Two Chapel Hill girls, Sarah Rose and Charlotte Davis, were honored. Qh Spbrf s; Editor Neill The letter was run and an editorial comment followed the next day. "I think it's just about time," Rahson said, "that students, when elected editors of publications, don't have the privilege to ' say anything they want. A due respect to the University is necessary, and the paper hasn't lived up to it this year, Ranson charged that instead of learning about the University, stu dent editors are "trying to set up good jobs for themselves as big newspaper men when they get out of school." Ranson said he wasn't endorsing either Peacock or Kuralt, but was merely "interested in the policy" of the student paper.', Both candidates agreed that the editor of the paper should have the right to say what he wished. However, Peacock said present edi tor Neill "embarassed the admin istration and made fools of the uQi.versity before the whole world." Kuralt repeated that he was run- nin3 fnr priitnr w Npil1 TClir-u ning tor editor, "not Neill." Kuralt said he "would be fair both in news and editorial pages." U. S. Is Failing In Leadership, Sfafes Hodges "America has had world leader ship thrust upon her and is fail ing because, unfortunately, the new administration in Washington has created more confusion and suspicion throughout the world," Lt.-Gov. Luther Hodges said here last night. . Addressing a public meeting sponsored jointly by the Young Democrats Club and the Law School Association, the Lieutenant Governor said the "confusion and suspition" he referred to "hasn't been intentional but it has been allowed to happen through an un curbed McCarthy and his associ ates. "People are confused and con cerned about their government and its leaders," the speaker said, j "They hardly know what or whom to believe. America is on the spot, j "McCarthy and company have j not only stolen the headlines world-wide," Hodges said, "they have almost succeeded in sabotag ing our international friendship by ' bipartisan foreign policy and by hard-working foreign staffs dedi-: cated to world peace "and under standing." j SARAH ROSE Sarah Rose is rush chairman of Pi Beta Phi and vice - president of the YWCA.

Hume Claytor, Orange County Dog Warden, says that George will be on his way to the pound in Hillsboro on Monday if he doesn't dig up a new rabies inoculation tag to replace the one he lost. Claytor, as a matter of fact, made a special exception in George's case. He is already picking up other Chapel Hill dogs who are not wearing the rabies tags. Mrs. A. M. Jordan, of the Chapel Hill Humane Society, requested that The Daily Tar Heel inform all local dog-owners that if their mutts show up miss ing why, Claytor's probably got them. The thing to do is go to Hillsboro between 8 and 12 o'clock on Saturday morning ei (See GEORGE, page 4) cn the Political Spring, When A Politico's Fancy Turns . . . President -Bob Gorham served notice this week that things will be active around his office. He has issued tha frequent, and hereto fore ineffective, complaint that the Book Ex makes too much money on used books. If he can help get the prides down, fine. But what makes us wonder about the whole thing is that he waited until spring to reg ister his complaint. We always thought that spring was the time to be lazy. Get Your Issues While They're Hot Another Gorham move was to go on record as opposing delayed fraternity rushing for freshmen. From the looks of things, this sounds like an ideal campaign issue. The rival Student Party has already said it favored sorrh sort of revised rushing. And Gorham, as University Party spokesman, now opposes it. The SP took its revised rushing stand last January. And Gor ham's stand, accompanied by a UP student Legislature bill backing the president, is the first outspoken opposition to the SP stand. 'Tho-J Shalt Not . . When a campaigner "lies," and one has been accused of doing just that, it would seem that ah Honor Council case would be in order. Hyperboles are as frequent in politics here as campaign posters. Lies, we like to think, are infrequent. If one accu-es another of a lie, why doesn't he press his suit in a student court? If this were the rule or a general practice, we think you'd hear fewer psliticos shouting, "Liar." t -. BETTY OTTO ANDERSON Va., is president of Carr Dormitory.
