Jake ..Wade .then The Manager, very., adeptly said, and said, "I'll sell him "No." . . 1 , my house." Tatum was then questioned about Maryland's 20-6 defeat by Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl. He said the Oklahoma team had a fast backfield. The slowest man in the Oklahoma backfield was speedier than the fastest man in Maryland's backfield, he said. He illustrated this by telling how Ed Vereb, his fastest back, was caught after breaking away on a long run by Bobby O'Neill, the slowest Oklahoma back. Tatum said the Sooners had a much, better second team than Maryland. He said the Oklahoma fast style of play had a lot to do I with the Terps loss. The Maryland coach said he knew the Sooners would use their fast playing style, but he could not hold practice to combat it because of a icy field during De cember. Tatum said he believed seven points would be the difference between these two teams anytime. After the conversation a waitress was overheard asking the manager of ..the Inn if she should charge Tatum for the cup of coffee he drank while talking with his uncle. y makers To Present vels Here Tonight xolina Haymakers' an- zie and Fingernail File. elfih Night Revels," a of the plays produced in the current season, presented tonight at 8 he Playmakers' Theatre. 32ram, under the direc Miss June Craft, Play Assistant Costumer, will alires on "Ondine," "The r" "Even The Gods" "3d Wedding."

NOW ARTS & SCIENCES DEAN: ittersoh ame Up Through Ranks By ROBERT BARTHOLOMEW Had his eyes been better' Joseph Carlyle Sitterson would probably be in command of a battleship today. Instead he is in charge of 1,200 students here in his position of dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Dr. Sitterson has been elosely connected with the University since he first registered here as a student back in 1927. During that time he has moved up in the academic ranks from a part-time instructor to a full professor, and this year was made dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. The University deaa is a na tive of Kinston, where be at tended public schools and made plans to attend the United States Naval Academy. On grad uating from .high school he en rolled at the Columbian Pre paratory School in Washington, D. C. to prepare, for the Naval Academy. Four months later, following a physical examination, he was told he would never be abfe to enter Annapolis. He withdrew from the school and entered the University of North Carolina the following fall, Dr. Sitterson received his A.B. degree from UNC in 1931. While an undergraduate, he worked during the summer as a carpenter's helper for the not unreasonable salary for that time of 12 cents an hour. He wanted to go into gradu ate,work in the field of history and this was made possible by a fellowship that was granted him to make a study of the sugar J, C. SITTERSON industry in the . South. Sittesron received his mas ter's degree during the depth of the depression, but was able to get a teaching position with the Georgia Military Academy, which he held until the follow ing spring. The young school teacher wanted to visit Europe but his monthly teaching salary was less than what a common labor er makes today in a week. How ever, there was a solution to the problem. He went to Norfolk, Va and signed on a freight steamer as an ordinary seaman and was able to visit England, Scotland, and Germay. . During the academic year of 1933-34 Sitterson returned to the University of North Caro lina and began working toward a Ph.D. degree. He then drop ped out of school for a year to work as director of the Hall of History in Raleigh. He returned to UNC in 1935 and was given a job as part time instructor in social science while he continued to work for his doctor's degree. He received his degree and the position of full-time instructor in 1937. His dissertation, which was publish ed by the University of North Carolina Press, is entitled "The Secession Movement in North Carolina." During the academic year of 1940-41, he made a study of the sugar industry in the South on a Rosenwald Fellowship. This study leave not only took him to libraries all over the South, but also into sugar cane fields, fac tories, and refineries in the low er South. Returning to the University in 1941, he taught for a year be fore going into the army as a private in the spring of '42. Sit erson was selected to attend of ficer's training school, but was discharged on disability before he received a commission. Dr. Sitterson returned to the University in 1942 and taught until 1944, when he was called to Washington by Donald Nel son to join the War Production Board. At the end of the war he took part in writing a history of the WPB. While he was on leave 'with the WPB, Dr. Sitterson was pro moted to associate professor. He rejoined the faculty in 1946 and was promoted topfull professor the following year. he lives by.

Boole Sales Show Student Study Habits It may come as a surprise to everybody, especially to UNC pro fessors, but this seems to be a studying year at the University. Paul Smith, manager of the In timate Book Shop, said that the sale of college outline books from September to December has shown a marked increase over last year. Smith said "the University must have a studying bunch of students this year, either, that or the pro fessors are giving more pops." When asked if there had been an increase in sales since the holi days Smith said that he didn't know, but( that there probably would be. Smith said that always just before exams when the stu dents began getting "exam scare" they start piling in the Intimate wanting the college outline books.
