House. Most of the 6,221 gifts were ear marked for specific purposes, in special programs for development of the economic, health, profes sional and educational programs at Chapel Hill and throughout the state. Other gifts were "unrestric ted," enabling, administrators to channel funds to needed areas, sometimes in emergencies, for de serving recipients.

In addition to the more than $220,000 raised during the year ending June 30, there were 9,000 alumni listed as dues-paying mem bers of the Alumni Assn.

In many ways the University has enjoyed its most meaningful, year of support. . .The University con gratulates each of you upon your thoughtful and enthusiastic re sponse and renews the challenge for an even greater record in the future. The result can only mean a more comprehensive program of service and an institution which will continue to rank-among the greatest state , universities."

Problem Is lih; Space ' g-AAcCurdy Tilt, Student Traffic Com. 'mittee has not considered limiting the undergraduate use of automobiles, said com- j mittee Chairman Layton Mc- i Curdy yesterday. ; . McCurdy said that even j though some faculty members ( have been pressing for the limi- j tation of autos, students can re tain their car rights by register ing with Assistant Director of Student Affairs Ray Jeffries. f .The main problem, according to McCurdy, is finding enough park ing space for the students. "We ' have looked into the posibility j of increasing the parking area on the campus," he said, "but we could not find any reasonable places for parking area."- McCurdy said he hopes "the students will acept this registra tion. It's not much trouble to walk up to the Dean of Student Af fairs Office and register their car." . The. system of registration, he also said, was like that of the state registration of lincese plates Automobiles are registered so that the Dean of Student Affairs Of fice can know that students have Uiieir cars registered in their name instead of in their parents name. Registration of autos, a long pro cess, was not through yesterday. Assistant Difector of Student Af fairs Jefferies said he planned to nave the total figured up some time today. The student car nroblem came to the fornt last week, when state representative and trustee John Umstead, a Chapel Hlllian, de clared the University hasn't done "anything" to solve the problem. Umstead asked the Chapel -Hill-Carrboro Mechants Assn. to ap point a committee to "investigate" the student car problem. Later in the week, Consolidated University Secretary William Fri day said the University was doing something to correct the problem. Dean of Student Affaire Fred Weaver also pointed to a memor andum he ' sent to Chancellor Robert House last springs The memo said the administration had compiled with a Visiting Commit tee of the Board of Trustees rec ommendation tWat the "admini stration attempt to improve the regulation of the use of cars" and "that the administration consider seriously the question of the pos session of cars by undergraduates."

Under the sponsorship of the Assn. of Col lege Unions, he has been selling the game of pocket billiards to j everyone he sees for the past 25 . A TT " years, lie loured u. o. army camps during the war giving ex hibitions . and intsructions. "President Eisenhower should play billiards instead of golf," the champion says, "Golf is too strenuous a game for a man his age; billiards would give him just the right kind of exercise." "The greatest of all partici pant sports," Peterson said, "poc ket billiards exercises shoulder and arm muscles and keeps eye muscles strong, besides keeping its player active on his feet." This and the fact that it is a mental challenge, a scientific procedure, are the reasons for its becoming a favorite sport and one of the most popular col lege games in the U. S., he said. COEDS PROMINENT Coeds are becoming prominent in the college billiard picture, entering the national tournament from 11 different schools last year. Ohio State University .has 20 tables ( 10 of which are usual- ly always occupied by girls) and gives credit for the game. Michi gan State and Washington Uni versity have the next largest number of college players and the best faciliteis. Billiard-playing schools in the North and West are ahead of those in the South, he said. Peterson . deplores the mis nomer, "pool," that is sometimes applied to pocket billiards. "Call ing it pool has done real harm to a good game in the past." George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and many other fam ous leaders, played billiards fre quently. "In fact, I have Wash ington's billiard cue,", Peterson said. , GEORGE'S CUE "I was lecturing to GIs at Fort Baldwin in Maine during the war. A 92 year-old couple in the audience came up after the pro gram and offered to give me Washington's cue. He was sup posed to have used it playing with Lafayette at Moorestown, N. J.
