Housing Director Says UNC Still Has Housing Problem Housing Director James E. Wads wbrth said recently the "serious" housing problem still confronts the Universtiy. ' "One of the prime aspects of this problem is to find housing for married students " attending the Universtiy. These married couples constitute a real problem as they often have furniture of their own, besides often having one or more children, and are not willing to live in the ordinary dormitory fa cilities," Wadsworth said. He said "the great tradgedy is that some forty or fifty married students who have been in school here since last September will not have rooming facilities in Victory Village when the fall semester of 1956 arrives." Wadsworth said these students cannot afford to stay in school be cause of the high rent they have to pay if they live in housing fa cilities other than those provided by the University. Monday, May 28, 2:00 p.m. I He said the problem would be -Tuesday, May 29, 8:30 a.m. even more acute this fall with an increased enrollment to house. Wadsworth also said every possi ble and speedy remedy to the situ ation is being sought by the Hous ing Office. . ' , - Many veterans are returning to I .the University and, because they cannot find housing facilities on the campus for themselves and their families, have to change their plans and seek their education at other schools," Wadsworth said. Holidays Begin Today And End Next Tuesday Spring holidays begin today at 6 p.m. and end next Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock. During that time, students will probably divide their time between going home, lulling around at var ious beaches and taking trips to New York, Florida and various other places. Some may even stay bere at "The Hill" and loaf in an environment where they usually study. Some students may take books home and study, but this is doubt ful. Carolina Gentleman and co eds will probably be glad to get away from the tremendous load of quizzes piled on them in the past few weeks. The outlook for fair weather and beach trips looks favorable. Stu dents will probably take advantage of it to the fullest extent. Musk Festival Will Be Held Here April 8 .
