Fowler Man Charges
McCurry Act Unfair
According to a worker for pre
sidential candidate Don Fowler,
Bob Colbert, chairman of the Mon
ogram Club's program committee,
has said that the "handbills given
out by presidential candidate Ed
McCurry were unfair to the Mono
gram Club Scholarship Fund."
Accordng to Charles Ackerman
publicity director for Fowler, Col
bert said, "The McCurry handbills
had the starting lineups on them
and thus took away money from the
fund which would have been gain
ed through the sale of the official
game programs.".
Ackerman, in commenting on
MISS MARGARET UNDERWOOD:
Coed Ballad Singer To
On Horace Heidt Show
Hobbies not only can be fun,
but they also may lead to fame
and financial rewards, as a UNC
coed ballad singer who has just
won a Horace Heidt talent audi
tion can well testify.
Miss Margaret Underwood, a
senior from Greensboro, has been
selected to appear on the Horace
aieidt television show which will
be broadcast from Raleigh Friday.
Accompanying herself on a guitar,
Miss Underwood will sing several
lolk ballads, a performance she
has given often in North Caro
lina m.Vical circles during the
past year.
Auditions for the program were
held recently at Station WPTF m
Italeigh, with Miss Underwood
competing with many other aspir
ing young musicians, dramatists
and singers.
Her renditions of "The Rebel
Song", and "ly Heart's in the

groups previous to joining the
Ensemble. j
James Pruett appeared in The
Marriage of Figaro, while James ,
Chamblee has had previous ex
perience in Gilbert and Sullivan
and has worked with choral groups
in the billet of bass.
"In working on this program,"
said Ludwig, "we have paid equal
attention to the vocal and drama
tic requirements of the songs. We
have tried to include as many of,
the traditional actions that char
acterise Gilbert' and Sullivan, and
we . hope ; that the- - sparkle and
laughter that show through all
Gilbert and Sullivan will be pres
ent in our performance," he con
cluded. There will be no admission
charge for the performance, and
no seats wil be reserved. The pro
duction is being sponsored by the
Graham Memorial Activities Board.
the statement, said, "This, of
course, hurt the sale of official
programs and took , away needed
money from the fund. Campus
campaigns should be run on an
ethical basis with the intent of
bringing out the qualifications of
the candidates. It is not a channel
through which we are able to help
ourselves by hurting others," he
said. ' .
"I hope that from now on when
trying to get votes, the presiden
tial candidates do so in a manner
that will not be at the expense of
so worthwhile a cause as the Mono-

Since then she has- sung folk songs

Her guitar playing began strict

on rivals Manning Muntzing (SP)

to making statements.
.McCurry has piled up four
