French Catholics Going Leftward -Van Breda The present place of the French Catholic is definitely left of cen ter, Dr. Herman Leo Van Breda told the UNC Newman Club last week. But there is strong opposi tion to the leftward shift from wealthy Catholics who fear the church's taking the proper stand on scoial issues just as much as they fear Communism, he said. Van Breda is professor, at the University of Louvain in Belgium, director of the Husserl Archives of Louvain, and visiting professor at Duquesne University in Penn sylvania. He spoke here on "Re vival of Catholic Social Thought in Western Europe." The speaker told Newman members that papal circular let ters have condemned not only communism but the fundamental principles of capitalism.

Wrote DTH Column, Too 'Executive Suite' Director Judd Active On Campus As Carolina Bv JOHN JACKSON -Executive Suite," playing Thursday through Saturday at the Carolina, is directed by Judd Kinberg, a Carolina alumnus. Kinberg was, at Carolina in 1941 and had his education inter rupted by the Army. After basic training h6 was shipped to France where he was wounded in combat and returned to the United States. Officials at the University Alumni Office report that Kin berg wrote regularly to them during his entire time in the Army and his many letters still .are on file at the office, located in the Carolina Inn. Complete JP, photo and Wire Max Crohn To Lead Carolina Delegation; State & WC Invited planned. The trampoline team from Carolina will put on an exhibit, ard the drum and bugle corps from State will perform. Other activities include softball, bowling, tennis, billiards, ping pong,' skating, dancing, and bad minton. These activities are avail able for stags, couples, or groups. From 7:15 until 8:15 that night the students from Womans Col lege will team up with the Greens boro television station to present a variety show for the men -from State and Carolina. Tho show will be in Elliot Hall. The finale of the program w:ll 'tuals in the French clergy and laity, he said, have started to agi tate "social justice, and not for "social charity." ' Van Breda said the wealthy Catholics opposed the movement to the left toward a progressive non-provincial and non-national community of peoples and a more just distribution of goods , be cause, as he put It, true Catholic ism, like communism, threatens the status quo which supports the wealthy in their unjustly superior economic position. The speaker noted that as the Catholic "associates of power, gold, and provincialism increas ingly prevail over thei social phil osophy, of Pius XI, as is current ly most lamentably happening in Franco Spain and in French Que bec, then the church will suffer even more greatly from its old ills: extra-prudence, paternalism, and conservatism.' But Van Breda said he .antici pates the future years when the "spirit of the reconstruction of the social order according to Christian justice, as inspired by the papal letters, will conquer the admittedly strong, and often un witting efforts of the many self interested conservative Catholics, both clerical and lay." 22 Groups Entered In Carnival To Be Held This Friday Night Three girls' dorms, three boys' dorms, five sororities, and 11 fra ternities have officially entered the University Club's carnival said Harriet Parrish, chairman, yester day.

Chosen vice-chairman was Bob Harrington from Greensboro. Other officers are David Mundy, Black Mountain, secretary-treasurer, and Jim Turner', Winston-Salem, rep resentative to the Carolina Forum. The Carolina Political Union was organized in 1936 by a group of political science students u tih the help of Dr. E. J. Woodhourc of the Political Science Departnu-nt. I later shifted from its original pur pose of a "union" form of discus sion and emerged with u round table form of discussion. . For several years it brought na tional speakers to the campus and then that function was taken over exclusively by the Carolina Forum. The CPU now holds its meetings on Sunday nights usually at 8 o'clock in the Grail Room . of Graham Memorial. Chi Phi and Tri Delt, AIPi and Chi Psi entered as fraternity sorority combinations.

Future Glimpse Will Be Given At Planetarium By ' BILLY ARTHUR Astronomically speaking, it wont be long-Honly'a matter of 12,000 years before the Southern Cross and the Magellanic Clouds, now visible only in the extreme southern hemisphere, will be seen by North Carolinians. Then, too, the constellations of the Big Dipper, Orion the Hunter and Leo the Lion, which are now visible in the northern hempis phere, will have perceptibly changed in form and positions in the heavens. Almost all of the precision in strumentsplus a new one con ceived and constructed by More head Planetarium technicians, are employed to show and explain these phenomena during the cur rent offering "12,000 Years into the Future" at the Planetarium. The new visitors in the north ern hempisphere and the changed constellation patterns by the year 14,000 A.D. will have resulted from the various motions of the earth, stars and planets. To ex plain these motions Planetarium technicians put in some 200 man hours to plan and construct a ro tating earth device to demonstrate the rigidity in space principle. Incidentally, the device is used only two minutes in the show. It and a precise gyroscope, the latter lent by Sperry Gyroscope Co. and the Wright Machinery Co. to the Planetarium expressly for the demonstration, astound the audience by their perform ances. The instruments enable witnes ses to understand why in the year 14,000 A.D. we will have a new polar star, not the North Star we now know but an entirely differ ent one. In those future years astronomers doubtless will regard Twentieth Century civilization just as crude as we now regard the prehistoric inhabitants of the Earth 12,000 years ago. Penegar, Roberts, Tolbert, Matthews Given Awards At the Di-Phi annual awards banquet Monday night, Ken Pen egar' was presented , the Di Sen ate's Highest Award of Merit. - The Phi Assembly gave to Jim Tolbert its Best Freshman Award.

S. Senate and Carolina graduate Alvin Wingfield Jr. will speak here to night on "The American Political Party System." David Mundy, UNC Young Re publican Club's secretary, an nounced yesterday that Wingfield would , speak .tonight at 8 o'clock in Gerrard Hall, -after which the spealcer would hold a question answer session. Following the . speech a recep tion in Wingfieid's honor will be held in Graham Memorial at 9:30. Wingfield, who was not includ ed in the Young Democrat Club's "Meet the Candidate" series, is a candidate for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senator. Mundy, in a statement released yesterday, gave the "reason behind the UNC, Young Republican Club's invitation to Wingfield.- Mundy said that "The - YDC although bound to give equal treatment to all the Democratic primary cand idates has invited only two to speak on campus. The YRC could not let such a lack of fairness go unchallenged. We want no one to imagine that sueh unfairness is typical of the campus, and there fore decided to invite at least one of the candidates to speak on campus." , Wingfield stated in an earlier campus visit that he would answer any questions asked him in Ger man and any in Russian submit ted in writing. He speaks both anguages. He is' opposing ex-Gov. W. Kerr Scott and Sen. Alton Lennon for the senatorial seat. All three are running in the Democratic pri mary to be held May 29.
