Since Justice's First By BOB EBERLE 'I don't know how many games I've been to," said Bushy, as he threw a large metal bed frame on a pile of scrap iron, "I've missed a few, but I've been a goin' to those games ever since Justice's first year." Bushy Cook, the caretaker of Rame ses, UNC's beloved ram mascot during the football games, is a tall farmer with a beard that grows long and in all directions. Though he has be come as muclr a tradition around Carolina as Rame ses, there is actual ly very little! known about him. It took the combined aid of GM Director Jimmy Wallace, Po r ft1 - - t lice Chief Sloan and the athletic department to final ly learn that Bushy lives just out side Eflin, and it was later found that to reach Bushy's farm one had to take a Toad that makes the Northwest Passage seem like New Pine Room Boasts Pizza, Dancing Room By BOBBIE ZWAHLEN Hot dogs, 10c. Juicy hambur gers, 15c. And hot Pizza pie (a nine inch one at that), 75c. Sounds unbelievable, but it's true. ' I These prices, plus good musi and a wonderful atmosphere are just a few of the things that are making the Pine Room in Lenoir Hall one of the most popular places on the campus, since it has been redecorated. George Prillaman, manager of Lenoir Hall, has announced that the Pine Room has been com pletely ctone over. The first . .thing that catches! your eye will be the cleaver new murals done, by W. B. Christ mas. On the wall "of the nack shop is a kingsize sketch of those fabulous jitterbugs. In the dance room, which is out of this world, there are drawings of various; campus scenes from the Arbore tum to the Old Well. A collec tion of college pennants will ev entually be added to the room. In the dance room are individual- tables, with lights, and a marvelous hard dance floor. Prillman said there would be a contest for naming the new dance room with a $5 meal' book as first prize. The judges will consist of a faculty member and two student representatives. 4v a - A .... i. Si- Year . . . ' usfiy 4t v.. -;." i i ? ,," Ci -fk. acsium I Quay ja paved super-highway. The fact that Bushy lives so far off ..the Main path is probably why so few really know much abodt him, but he is always happy to see any Carolina student who wishes to take the time to go and see him. Rameses is really bred and cared for at Hogan's Farm, but since 19 47 Bushy has been, taking- the beloved Ram to all - the games . that' he could possibly at tend. Bushy got this start in 1946 when he attended his first Carolina foot ball game. A news paper reporter spot ted him sitting in the end-zone ("Best tickets I could get") and thought that it would make a good story. When I'll his picture appear ed in the papers the next day he was asked to care for Rameses at the games, and since then he has missed very few games. Bushy has not always been a resident of Eflin, but was born and raised in Haywood County. For the major part of his life Bushy worked in textile mills, and he has become one of the best men in the operation of a loom. When the war broke-out Bushy took his family of seVen to Con necticut, where the pay was bet ter, and they all got jobs in the mills up there. With the seven of them working Bushy's , family soon made a lot of money, and when the war was over they de cided to come back to Carolina and buy a farm. In the meantime Bushy's folks had moved to Ef lin where they had purchased a small farm, so Bushy decided to see if he could find some land nearby. After looking around he bought a 69-acre outside Eflin and stocked it with 20 head of cattle. In spite of all the games that Bushy has attended, he never tires of going, and he is looking forward to watching another sea son of football from the sidelines as he and Rameses march up and down the length of the field. "I was just over to that there Wo man's College ast week, and they all seemed to recognize me. They said that they were coming over for the game, and if Carolina Won they were all going to give me a kiss. I guess I'll have to levae quick right after the game 'cause that'll be a heap of women a comin gout of those stands at the end." With the start of a new season everyone will be looking for Ram eses and "the beard," and, . as Bushy assured this reporter, he would not fail them. "I'll be down there With those cheerleaders as always, and I'll be pulling, for those boys out on the field."

Drinking Wont Get 'Out Of Hand7 Sloan Chapel Hill Police Chief W. T. Sloan ! said yesterday he would not let drinking at the Carolina State game this afternoon "get out of hand". The stadium ticket officer earlier, announced that there would be no drinking at the game. Chief Sloan said he received no word from stadium officials, but that police would enforce drunk eness laws. The chief said he expected a large turnout at the game, and consequently a lot of traffic. He said the State Highway Patrol and the Chapel Hill Police De partment would handle" traffic going to and from the game. BSU Leader Will Replace J. C Herrin The Rev. James Olin Cansler, of Chapel Hill, who is doing graduate work in sociology at the University, is to be the new stu dent chaplain for the Chapel Hill Baptist Church and Baptist Stu dent Union secretary at the Uni versity of North Carolina.

The Chapel Hill Baptist Church has been without a student chap lain and BSU secretary since last March, when the Rev. J. C. Her rin was dismissed from the post by the General Board of the State Convention on the ground that he had been the source of constant friction between his BSU program and the leaders of .the Chapel Hill Baptist Church. The then State BSU secretary and the BSU director at Duke University were discharged at the same time. The appointment of the Rev. Mr. Cansler thus brings to an end a long search for a successor to Herrin, who is now serving as pastor of a church in Scarsdale, N. Y. Endorsement. Mr. Cansler had the endorse ment of the local 'church's Stu dent Affairs Committee, which is headed by William Friday and is composed of seven regular church members and seven stu dent represntatives from the lo cal BSU. Dr. Samuel T. Habel, .the pas tor, and the board of deacons, headed by Judge L. J. Phipps, had also endorsed Mr. Cansler. Judge Phipps, Dr. , Habel and Friday said in a statement, last night that "we feel very fortu nate in obtaining the services of of Mr. Cansler."

"Looks like you ought to have fair and warm weather." That's the forecast made by Av iation Forecaster Bryan Stone, at J the Raleigh-Durham Airport, for Chapel Hill and vicinity. Stone forecast temperatures in the middle 80's along about the time the Carolina-State game be gins, with dry air all through Ke nan Stadium. Would the day be good "football weather?"

He Suffered With The Heat A Lot' Rebel, 145-Pound Newfoundland, Long One Of Chapel HHPs Residents, Died In Summer : ... By CHUCK HAUSER In The Chapel Hill Weekly Rebel, the 145-pound black Newfoundland land dog, who, with his 92-pound mistress, Mrs. A. M. Jordan, was a familiar sight on the paths of the campus for many years, died during the summer at the age of 12. The big, friendly dog died of an attack of asthma, which affected his heart. And the summer heat, Mrs. Jordan "'agrees, was prob- ably a contributory cause. "He suffered with the heat a lot," she commented the other day. Mrs. Jordan, who is treasurer of the Chapel Hill Humane Society, is interested in buying or borrow ing photographs or negatives of Rebel from anyone who has photo graphed the dog. "Many people stopped us from time to time and asked permission to take pictures of Rebel, especial ly on the campus," she said, "and I'm hoping that I can get some of the pictures to make copies of." The Jordans were in Los Angeles this summer when Rebel died. Pro fessor Jordan, who teaches in the School of Education, was a visit ing lecturer at the University of j Southern California. ! Rebel was boarded for the sum- mer at Dr. Vanderbilt's kennels on the Durham Road. Dr. Vander bilt gave the big dog every atten tion, said Mrs. Jordan, but he could not save him. "Rebel was the friend of all the children in town," she said, "and he never fought with any other dogs. If any dog started bothering him, Rebel would just lower his head,' back up, and butt the dog amidships full speed right in the ribs. We never had trouble with any dog twice." The Newfoundland had been in the Jordan family since he was six months old. He was born in Taunton, Mass., and was given to the Jordan's son. When the son A. M. Jordan, Jr., went into the service in World War IL his wife and Rebel went tolive with Dr. and Mrs. Jordan. When Rebel's master returned, the younger Jor dans went to live in Florida and the dog stayed with the older gen eration. "He was named Rebel as a joke," Mrs. Jordan explained. 'My daughter-in-law said she would name him after my son, and she called him Rebel. That was his full name just Rebel." Most people around Chapel Hill had never seen a Newfoundland before, and Rebel attracted quite a bit of attention when he came here to live. He was still attract ing attention as the only animal of his type in these parts right up to the time of his death. Rebel had not . been in good health since an attack of encepha litis sleeping sickness several years ago. Since then he had be come susceptible to bouts with pneumonia and other maladies. Umiw ersity WPTF The rally was broadcast in sep arate parts over WPTF with Worth White, announcer, and Wil lard Dean, engineer. Hugh Baker from State started the broadcast off at Red Diamond with seven minutes of the State side of the rally and then Jim Fountain took over here. - After several minutes of "Beat State" and jubilant cheering, UNC Chancellor R. B. House was intro duced and set the crowd off com pletely with "I believe in my soul we're gonna beat State tomorrow." Chancellor House gave the stu dents a few of his memories from past years and warned that State was not "out for-small potatoes." He then swung into "Roll on Boys" on the harmonica.

Hi I 7 UNC Looking For Eighth State Defeat By BERNIE WEISS North Carolina's Tar Heels open their 1954 season today and also compete in the lirst game between two Atlantic Coast Conference teams this year, taking on . the N. C. State WoUepack at Kenan Stadium. , The Consolidated Universi ty Day contest is slated for 2 o'clock. , Carolina will be out to extend its winning streak over" State to eight games and the Tar Heels, rated a 21-point favorite, may do just that. The opponents are with out their star fullback and team captain, Don Langston. Langston injured his leg Sat urday against Virginia Tech and will also be minus the full-time services of the No. 1. quarterback, Eddie West, who was also injur ed against Tech. West, however, may see limited duty although he will not start. Carolina is in excellent shape for the game. Eackfield ace Ken ny Keller's sprained ankle is com ing along nicely. He worked out again yesterday and is expected to be in fit condition for the con test, though he will not be in the starting lineup. The probable starting UNC backfield will be Marshall Newman at quarterback, Larry Parker and Connie Gravitte at the halfback positions and Don Klochak at full. Kiochak, a tough customer at 213 pounds, will be in his first game for the varsity. Gravitte and Kirkman Co-Captains Gravitte and center Bill Kirk man have been named as co-captains for the game. The two sen iors will lead a team which av erages just a little below 195 pounds per man. Probable Starting Lineups: UNC Pos.

In addition to Langston and West the 'Pack is also without a key guard, Al D'Angelo. The invaders are pinning their hopes on soph omore flash George Marinkov, a 165-pound speed demon who tal lied twice against Tech. Soph Billy Franklin will start at quarterback in place of West, while Harrison MacKeever, also a soph, will take over for Langston. UNC Ahead In Rivalry Carolina holds a wide margin over State in the history of the intra - school rivalry. Since 1894 UNC has won 32 games while dropping only five. Six of the games have been ties. State is operating this year un der Coach Earle Edwards, former ly with Michigan State, who suc ceeds Horace Hendrickson. Ed wards has brought with him the Spartans' "multiple offense" type of attack .which operates from an unbalanced line using the basic T-formation with both single and double wing variations. Edwards is determined to better State's 53 record of 1-9 and would like noth ing better than to get on the win- Ining track at Carolina's expense. Pre-game estimates late yester dav nlaced the attendance fisure at 20,000 to 25,000.
