When the casting : committee pursues the complements and comments which it scribbled during tryouts it will have to remember that each actor must double as technician. There will be only 12 people on tour, in addition to Whet stone and student set designer John Cauble. These 12 are mem- refzes bers of the cast and their, under studies. This means that afctor, stage hand, makeup artist, and moral officer will have to com bine into one person for the tour. ; Whetstone said after thei try outs, " I think we'll have a good cast out of these people."

However, said the column, Dr. John D. Messick, president of East Carolina College in Greenville, is being mentioned in some circles as a replacement for Gray. Messick, when called by tele phone, said "It was a complete surprise to me. I have not promot ed myself nor have Tasked anyone to "do so" . . ,. .. Officials at Sou. th Building had no comment to make on the mat ter. A total of 2,132 "student automobiles lias been register ed with South Building, ac cording jx a report from Ray Jelfeiies; assistant to the dean of student, affairs. The figure more than dou blues that of last year; but, ac cording to Jef f eries, there . were some married students who did not nave to register their cars last year but are required to do so this year. "Therefore," he said, "there are not actuilly that many more cars here." The total number regis tered last year was 1.052 ,he said.

Janitor Still Convalescing After Accident Javan 'Mitchell, janitor at the Monogram Club, is convalescing at home after, being pushed through a plate-glass window in last week end's pep rally. Mitchell received cuts and bruises in Friday night's rally as students formed a "snakeline" past a downtown service station and pushed him through the win dow. , , . Head Cheerleader Collie Colli son could not be reached yester day to comment on payment for the window. After the accident, Collison said he would solicit stu dent donations to pay for the win dow and for Mitchell's hospital bill. The University Club 'and cheerleaders would also help pay, he said. I. C. Pendergraft, owner of the service station, said yesterday the window had been replaced at a cost of $104.10. Pendergraft said he has talked with the Chapel Hill Po lice Dept. and has said he will drop charges against students if the window expenses are paid. As yet, he said yesterday, he iias heard nothing from the students involved in the . accident. stock company, will have its 1956 premier Tn December, j The theatrical organization, a committee of Graham Memorial Activities Board, lives through student talent, according to Miss Kirksey Sink, a Sound and Fur member. Miss Bo Bernadin, senior in dramatic arts, directs the pro ductions, which Ken Lowery, Jun ior, produces. The result of their efforts are musicals in which stu dents act, sing and dance. "About seven years ago, Sound and Fury grew silent, dying an untimely death at the accusation, 'risque,' " said Miss Sink. "Then, last season, under the ; guiding hands of several interested stud ents, the organization returned from the . dead, first as part of GMAB's Dance Committee, which nearly suffered its own death under the added money strain," she explained. - Sound and Fury's first pro duction after revival was a com bination of the scores of "Pajama "Scandals of ,55.'; , , Miss Bernadin describes the Sound and Fury comeback by saying, "It really came off better than it should have." , Sound and Fury script writers next gotx together and molded songs and dances from "The Boy Friend," "Pal Joey," "House of Flowers," into its second priduc tion "Satan's Saints," which was produced in April. This season's first show will be entirely original, according to Miss Sink. Jack Spooner, radio-television major, has joined Miss Ber nadin to create a script. The musi cal score is being set down by Al and Howard Smith, Miss Barbara Newcomb, Spooner, Joel Spivak and Dr. T.C. Toops of the Mem orial Hospital staff. , Miss Sink added that students interested in participating in the December production of Sound and Fury should watch for announce ments of try-out dates, .slated within the next few weeks. town police. He would take the fines collected and build more parking facilities. Fowler added that since the law covering parking violatons would not allow the University to take over, he thought the solution un likely. Yesterday, Fowler, who is in the NEUROLOGIST DESCRIBES BRAIN WO.UC Dr. Denny-Brown Bryson Lecturer By PETE IVEY The extraordinary fact that cer tain movements of the human body work better after removal of one hemisphere of the brain was explained here last night by Dr. Derek E. Denny-Brown, world famous neurologist, in the fourth annual Bryson Lectures at N. C. Memorial Hospital. . In recent years epileptics and other patients with severe damage to portions of the brain have re covered better use of limbs after entire removal of one side of the brain. Such operations have been performed -in New York, Boston, Cleveland, Montreal and iii Eu rope. The entire behavior of the Infirmary with sinus trouble, ex-jpatient is often much better af. plained his two statements as be ing a qu est! on of ' terminology. He said his objection was in calling the regularatory body a court. ' . According to Fowler, the , new program would ' be under a com mittee since, as he put it, "I did not want ' another court." He em phasized the plan is similar to the one currently in effect at 'N. C State College in Raleigh. FRESHMEN The solution of the campus parking problem by denying cars to freshmen is not the one he wishes, said Fowler. He said this might bring "evils" which could end in hazing and beany caps. "That is why," said Fowler, "I am reluctant to take this course." Fowler said the committee, un der the chairmanship of Layton McCurdy, has considered . the freshman restriction plan, but de clared freshmen's cars would be limited only if no other means of solving the problem were seen. He added that if such a step could not be avoided, the restriction (See AUTOS, page 4.) IN MEN'S CLOTHES: Comfort & Style Importan For UNC Study TinospnGtG By PEG HUMPHREY Comfort and style are the keynotes of men's fashion, ac cording to New York fashion editors. They cite the Italian influence as important this year. 1 ' Evening wear is ' highlighted by a dinner jacket of tropical weight black wool and mohair with satin-bound lapels. With this is worn a white broadcloth evening shirt and black silk bow tie. Our friends north of the Mason-Dixon line are wearing double-breasted blazers of navy blue hopsacking with gold jne 'tal buttons and removable blackbelts. These they team with gray flannel slacks, but its predicted that these blazers will be favored with white flannels here in the South. " ' "Replacing the polo coat is a coat with set-in shoulders which are cut raglan style at the back for greater comfort. The' back is belted. The V-neck classic sweaters still lead, in popularity with the crew-neck pull-over giving it a good bit of competition, he cardigan coat sweater is no longer strictly for sports but with the new low opening that keeps it hidden under a-buttoned suit jacket, it may serve as a decor ative vest. Take your pick of colors. For casual wear, subtle stripes, bold argyles, space fi gures, checks and allover pat terns effer a wide range of, choice. RUGGED MEN For rugged individuals, manu facturers are turning out rough-textured tweed jackets which team effectively with a cotton twill 'shirt. Orion and tweed mixtures are popular, and many sports coats are trim med with leather and velvet and have three buttons. Narrow lines with pleats or plain front at the waistband and belted, in the back, of course, characterize trousers. Overcoats are of textured or smooth fa brics with plain or velvet col lars. Small shaped, narrow hats are endorsed by fashion editors. They emphasize the trim, under stated look. "N ' Black and jet brown seem to be -this year's favorite colors. Wrhite shirts are being manu factured with tiny black and white pinstripes. The button down shirts are still good, but the English tab collars, the boned collars .held neatly in place by two concealed tabs, are returning to the fashion scene. The rage in belts are the tiny plaids, small prints, and repR stripes. Many are manufactured with tics to match and come in sets. Ties are' narrow and con servative, many of wool chal lis with paisley prints or tiny patterns. The black repp tie is still a good bet. Grains are returning to shoes with the textured look especi ally popular this year. The Ital ian influence is obvious in the comfortable and light, low slung loafer style, with or without laces. . ter the operation than before, said Dr. Denny-Brown. ; The explanation is that a l:be of the brain damaged by blows or other injuries could rcsulfj in "suppression" of bodily move ments, he said. Faulty perform ance of hands, feet, fingers er other parts of the body can be. traced to "negative" reaction ef the injured part of the brain. Such negative reactions are the basis of tremors and other in voluntary spasms, he said. Discussing "Positive and Ne gative Aspects of Cerebral Motor, Function," Dr. Denny-Brown, British-born neurologist now on the staff of Harvard Medical School, gave word illustrations and pictures to describe disturbances of behavior from the neurological point of view. He presented meanings and methods -of diag nosis of tremors, involuntary spasms, St. Vitus Dance and other disorders. POSITIVE EFFECT In one type of brain injury the patient' is likely to have an ex cess of movement and become ag gressive in actions. This is a posi tive effect of cerebral motor func tion. In another type of brain injury the patient shows an "avoiding reaction" or a withdrawing type of paralysis. That is called the negative aspect of cerebral motor function, he said. WThen that part of the brain which produces the negative as pect is removed, frequently the patient's withdrawing tenden cies are corrected. The neurologist described in technical language functions of the nervous system and the rea ctions of the brain in terms of environment. Dr. Denny-Brown spoke to doctors of the UNC Division of Health affairs and other physi cians; and the general, public at the clinic auditorium on the fourth floor of N.C. Memorial , Hospital. Dance Tonight Bob Hicks and Bobbie Zwah len, co-chairmen ef the Grahira Memorial Activities Board Dance Committee, announced there will be an informal dance tonight in the Rendezvous Room ef Graham Memorial from 9 midnight. , A combo will supply the music for the affair, and refreshmsnt will be served. A fall theme will highlight fhe deccretians. Dow, ir
