Refuses Testimony
WASHINGTON (-Poker-faced
William Langley, district attorney
of Portland, Ore., took the Fifth
Amendment before the Senate rac
kets committee yesterday and re
fused to testify about gambling and
prostitution in his bailwick.
He listened to tape recordings of
what purported to be conversations
between him and a pair of gamb
lers but refused to say whether he
recognized his own voice.
He also declined on grounds of
possible self-incrimination to ex
plain a $500 check drawn in his
Lame by the Western Conference
of Teamsters in: 1954. ;;
The tape recordings, made secret
ly by a third gambler, quoted Lang
ley as saying; it .was "all right" to
run card games, handbooks, pinball
machines and punehboards.

ed satisfied they had the goods on
him and could send him to prison
on charges of ad $18,009 bribery
scheme.

HOKE SIMPSON

UNC Glee Club
Will Feature
Hoke Simpson
By BEN TAYLOR
Tall, tanned and talented Henry
floke" Simpson will take his Bel
afonte sway and song style on a
rambling tour of North and South
Carolina next week when he tours
vith the UNC Men's Glee Club.
The soft spoken Georgian will be ;
the . glee club's featured vocalist
when it leaves Wednesday morning
at 9 a.m. on its annual spring tour.
The cheerful freshman will per
form three songs at the Glee Club's
numerous concerts. In eaeh perfor
mance he will be arrayed in an
outfit he refers to as a "dock
worker's wardrobe."
By this he means he'll be sport
ing white duck pants and a red
shirt opened lazily at the neck.
A quartet of glee club members
will provide background music on
some of the numbers. They will be
fcttired in white shirts with the op
en neck synonymous of the Jamai
can natives, and dark tux pants.
The amiable calypso singer will
perform "Marianne," and "Jamaica
ca Farewell." The third number in
his relaxing repertoire is as yet un-
determined, but either "Hold 'Em
Joe," "Matilda," or "Pretty Girl"
will round out his performance.
Hoke's soothing style is as fresh
as his, big southern grin. He's been
a calypso singer for only "about a
year
" ... . . , lt '
Simpson stated that he felt that
"the five day tour will give me a
chance to meet and perform before
just about every kind of audience.
The opportunity to perform on tele
vision along with the Glee Club will
eJso be provided."

UN Seminar Students
Hear Dr. Frank Graham
By PEG HUMPHREY
- Special to the Daily Tar Heel
NEW YORK The art of medi
ating an international settlement
between Indonesia and The Neth
erlands was graphically explained
last night by Dr. Frank Graham
to the group of students which
made up the UN Seminar trip.
Dr. Graham described to the
UNC and WC students the diffi
culties which he encountered as
a member of the UN commission
which settled the revolt of the In
J donesians against the Dutch, and
gave sovereignty to the Indonesian
Republic.
With the Indonesians, led by
President Sukarno, clamoring for
independence in 1945, from the
Dutch, Dr. Graham was appointed,
along with an Australian and Bel
gian representative to mediate the
dispute for a peaceful settlement.
Dr, Graham went on to relate the
deadlocks which the UN commiss
ion bogged down on. The Dutch
wanted the problem settled in In
donesia. The Indonesians out of
their country.
Out of this impasse came the
solution, through diplomatic chan
nels, to negotiate the dispute on
an American warship, the Ren
ville, a naval vessel.
On Board the Renville" in 1947,
acute arguments and more dead
locks arose over the principles
Kings Share
Most Precious
Possession
It has been said a man's most
precious possession . is his name.
And two Daily Tar Heel staff mem
bers have been concerned with
this recently.
Why?
Both are named Bill King; con
sequently, there has been some
confusion over which is which.
One Bill King is assistant sports
editor and confines his articles to
the sports page (except for possi
ble front page color stories on
sports events). He also writes oc
casionally for the editorial page.
The other Bill King is a report
er on the, news staff. His writings
appear soiely on the news pages.

Luther Hodges. Jr., has issued
a stern edict and fair warning
from the Student Council.
"Active attendance," he said,

More Than 60
Earthquakes
Recorded Here
At least 60 different earth
quakes were recorded in the past
four days by the UNC seismo
graph. Dr. Gerald , R. MacCarthy,
geophysicist in charge, said Wed
nesday. Dr. MacCarthy said the number
"far exceeds" recordings for any
similar period since the seismo
graph was established here in
1953.
Then tremors ranged from
" 'world-shaking' to barely percep
tible," he said. The period covered
the time from 9:33 a.m. of Mar.
9, when the first big Aleutian
earthquake of the current scries
began, until 8:45 a.m. yesterday.
In the past 24 hours, 13 earth
quakes, all "moderate to weak."
were rcccrded. Dr. MacCarthy
said. Most were located in the
Aleutian region, he said.
The series of tremors constitute
what is called a "swarm of earth
quakes," Dr. MacCarthy said. They
have been decreasing in' intensity,
following a regular pattern, he
said, and can be expected to con
tinue for several months or possi
bly years.
