JULIA n O Loyalty Oath Abolishment Is Di's Topic A bill to abolish mandatory facul ty loyalty oaths of state employed people has been introduced by Pres. ident Gary Greer for debate at to night's meeting of the Dialetic Sen ate. All people employed by the state of North Carolina and who hold positions of trust and profit are required to sign an oath pledging the support of state and federal con- rotations; . Thex'imstZalsfr- disclose in their application 1 forms weather they have ever been a member4 of a party supporting violent over- throw of the government. Many citizens believe such practi ces to be violation of personal free dom. These practices, they , say, question the loyalty of. Amtrican cit izens and identify individuals with past association, judging them ac cordingly. The subject of state loyalty oaths has been previously discussed in The Daily Tar Heel by the editor Curt Gans. He said loyalty oaths would be a strain on man's freedom of concience if he did not agree with every article of the United States Constitution, Theft In Dorm Is Reported Chapel Hil Police yesterday were investigating the theft of $169 in photographic equipment from a room in a University dormitory. John B. Read told officers tha someone entered his locked room last Wednesday and took a camera case, a movie camera, a light met 1 er a Portrait lens, and four rolls of film. He said stolen. $5 in cash was also s "It is well known," the speakers said, "that certain damages result from exposure to radiation and ways must be found to determine and measure the safe limits of such ex posure. At the turn of the century it was though that man could safely be exposed to a certain amount of radiation. Today the amount of dai ly exposure that is consitered safe is only one-five-hundredth that of what was consitered safe from 1900 to 1925." What has brought about this re duction in the amount of exposure consitered safe Chanlett and Lum sden cited two main reasons. "It is now known that over exposure to ra diation may produce abnormal af fects on the future generations. It also is believed that there is a short ening of the life span due to radia tion. There is evidence of this from experiments with labratory animals. "On he other hand, there is no evidence that people workicg in ato U (& Part Of M 0 1 A 1 STAPLES nnnninKo mm mm mm mm wt v ( , FOR QUICK THINKING . . . Cadet Peter A.

Dr. Mauro,: who administered treatment, credited Foley's action with saving her life. Foley applied a tourniquet. J - mic energy projects have been so effected. The extensive 4 safety pre cautions taken on such projects are determined by awareness of all pos sible risks." The speakers listed three' princi ples that should be followed in re gard to radiation exposure. 1. Exposure should be reduced to an absolute minimum, , 2. ' The effects of radiation must be recognized as accumulative and scientist must be concerned with the lifetime burden of radiation. 3. An. exposure to radiation must be decided upon in terms of bene fits that may be derived from the exposure. Such decisions should be left up to the physican, dentist and safety engineers, and those profes sions concerned with environmental protection such as industrial gygien ists and healtn physicists.

Recognized were Miss Nancy Ann Adams, Miami, Flor ida; Miss Charlene Lynne Bass, Elberton, Georgia; Miss Sipra Bose, Chapel Hill; Miss Diana ; ' Arneson, DeVere, Morganton, North Carolina; Miss Margaret Lee Jackson, Boca Raton, Florida; Mrs. Julia Staples, Chapel Hill; and Miss Nancy Elizabeth Turner, Cary, North Carolina. -., - The Valkyries began their, candle-light march at .1:30 a.m. in their customary black, robes and hoods. As the march proceeded through the women's residence halls, the sound of the golden gong called forth those women who were rec ognized for the Valkyrie ideals of scholarship, leadership, character and service. Following the secret ceremonies, special breakfast was served at 6 a.m. in honor of the new mem bers. Former members of the Or der were also present for this con clusion of the ceremonies. The Order of the Valkyries was begun on the Carolina campus in 942 so that outstanding women students might be given special recognition for their services. The name of the organization is taken rom an ancient Norwegian legend centered around the warrior god Odin, who represents Thought and Memory and who was mankind's benefactor. Odin had nine select maiden at tendants, the Valkyries, wh$were daughters of tha gods and yet were mortals -as well. These attendent maidens waited on the tables in Asgard, but their chief task was to go to the battlefield and decide at Odin's bidding who should win and who should die, and then to carry the brave dead to Valhalla, the hall of fame. It was considered a great honor to belong to this chosen group because they shared the glorious companionship of de parted heroes. ine purpose of tne urder as stated in the Valkyrie creed is: "As a Valkyrie I will strive to ac complish gladly and quietly the tasks which lie before us, to be unaiiectea oy success and un daunted by failure, to have an ac tive interest in the welfare of my felow students; to act always with a spirit of helpfulness and to try to inspire co-operation in others to De sincere ana considerate on all t occasions, to work toward tolerant and sympathetic under standing of others, and yet to stand staunchly by my own convictions to be above pettines in all my dealings and to direct my thoughts and actions persistently toward the highest purposes, as a Valkyrie will strive constantly toward those ideals of character, scholarship leadership and service for which our organization stands.
