English Major Publishes Letter In October Issue Of 'Esquire' Howard Wheeler, a sophomore j "To a certain extent 1 agree that rnajoring in English here has a let-, the liberty of expression won by the ; major writers of this century has 'degenerated in libertinism,' but the joung writers I know are not will ing to throw this freedom away in a flight back to Victorianism; they i'dmire the literature of the Lost Generation too much and are too otten exasperated by the tongue-in-cheek styles of Dickens, Thackery,' nd the rest." Wheeler agrees that the limit of sex sensationalism has been reach ed, but predicts that literature will shift the emphasis from sex, rather than adopt an "austere concept of decency." He concludes that real ism and symbolism are the char- tt r published in the October s.sue of Esquire Magazine. V. heeler took exception to an arti cle appearing in the July issue of tii magazine in which a "Puritani ;.! Revolution in the literature of the entire world" was predicted. The article in question envisioned Charles De Gaulle as the symbol lor a new spread of an "austere concept of decency." Wheeler says, in part, "With all respects to your prophetic powers, I find your statements contradic tory to what has been taught to me by professors and writers at the University." Autumn Is Here! Autumn made her appearance quietly yesterday. There was no sudden change in the hue of the leaves or the color of the grass. Coeds, exhausted after the rigors of the first round of rush, and oth er new students, still in a daze after. ..the . maw , o bh first of classes, continued their usual round of activities. Di-Phi Defeat Resolution In Support Of Disarmament Ity IIOHAKT STEELE The newly-merged Dialetic and I'hilanthro- !c Literary Society de feated a resolution for support of Khrushchev's p r o p o s al disarma ment. In the first meeting of the Society the members voted against support of Nikita Khrushchev and his disarmament proposal bv a Mnall majority. i The resolution was presented by a member of the Ways and Means committee, Rep. Glen Johnson. In h.- opening speech Johnson stated that the Russian people were de manding the same consumer goods available to those of the Western werld. Russia, he stated, must appease tin se peoples by cutting the pro tection of war machines and turn ing out more consumer goods. The United States also could survive on economic competition in the con sumer field, explained Johnson. acteristics of today's writers, and not pornography as the original aiticle implied. "Hemingway and Faulkner are the bronze gods of today's young college writers. I don't know that any of the students at the univer sity look upon Charles de Gaulle as a leader of Lterary fashions. With the. rich, literary legacy left to us by Lewis, O'Neill, Anderson, Pound, Eliot, Stein, Wolfe, Crane, Faulkner, Hemingway, Dos Passos, Steinbeck, and Caldwell (to name only a few) why should we look to France for literary leadership? The writers of the Lost Genera tion fled to France because she was liberal; she promised them an at mosphere in rich the serious writers produces his best work. And these works are our heritage and will be our influence."

CORNELL COON RAPIDS, Iowa, W Nikita Khrushchev plowed his way afoot and by car today through some of the world's richest farm- and and concluded that in this part of tha country "God has help ed you a lot." But the Soviet Premier, an athe ist who likes to dip into religion now and then, added: "You must not think God is help ing only you. He's helping us, too . . We are developing quicker, and therefore God is on our side. He helps the intelligent.'' Khrushchev, rugged and bouncy too, tramned through part of a mile-square corn field, looked at fat cattle and tried to get an idea how it is that it takes so few Americans to raise so much food and even have a surplus. His host was capitalist farmer Roswell (Bob) Garst, who operates Camp New Hope Listed As Baptist Retrea Camp New Hope will be the new Baptist student retreat for all in coming students September 26-27. The schedule for the weekend consists of three discussion periods. In addition, there will be recrea tion Saturday afternoon and a so cial that evening. A service will be Sunday morning alter which dinner will be served. Students return to the campus Sun day afternoon. Cost for 'the weekend will be $3.50, all inclusive. Interested students may call 9-1811 by Friday.

'Help' - Debate Team "We need students. Students who are interested, who like to travel and like to work." So stated De bate Team President Taylor McMil lian and Vice President Joe Rob erts. All those interested in, or enjoy debating and traveling, are invited to the debate team's first meeting today in the Grail Room or Gra ham Memorial. The time of the mf-eting is 3:30-5:00 p.m. This year the debate team plans to attend meets in Washington, D. C, New York, Boston, Virginia and South Carolina, hoping to continue it's excellent record of wins. No previous experience is re quired in debating for member ship. Seven members of last year's team are returning. This year the debate counseler ill be Dr. O. B thousands of acres in this area of West Central Iowa. Garst had met the Premier previously on two trips to Russia. He invited the Premier to visit him when he visit ed America. At one point, Garst threw his arm around his guest and remark ed: "You knov between us, we two farmers could soon settle pro blems faster than the diplomats." Garst caught sight of Henry Ca bot Lodge, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, who is guiding the world's top Communist around the country. "Oh, excuse me!" Garst exclaim ed. - Khrushchev didn't arrange it at all, but his very presence created chaos in a cornfield. Newsmen and photographers, hundreds of them, had to push and shove their way up so close that the Premier and Garst scarcely could make their way along beside the rows of towering corn over to a silage trench, on past modern farm machinery to a cattle feeding lot. Garst was exploding all along the way. He picked up a corn stalk with a heavy root and threatened the photographers with it. He grab bed up a handful of ensilage and threw it at cameramen and news men. He called up a neighbor mounted cn a horse to push them back. A reporter bellowed: "The Cossacks are coming." Finally, National Guardsmen and State Troopers, State Department j jjjce Although the Premier was re ported to have stayed up late hand ling pap?r work flown in from Moscow, he was amiable and perky and saying at his first stop that "this is going to be a jovial day." He motored some 80 miles cut into the countryside from Des Moines, where he spent the night, and took in several farms in the vicinity of this little town of 17,000 people. Thousands of school children were out yelling and waving along the route. Sum; in autumn colors splashed the rolling prairie land with red here and there beside the highway. But mostly, Khrushchev rolled along between those fields of famed Iowa corn and acres of grain sorghum and soybeans. As anyone who knows his farm ing is aware, Iowa grows more corn than any other state. And this year the state is expecting a record crop, mere than 800 mii-r lion bushels. It is a land of bounty and abun dance, and that is the way Khrush chev saw it. Standing in a grain sorghum field 10 miles east of here, the Soviet leader spotted Donald Wat kins. Watkins weighs 240 pounds and displays a girth as ample as Khrushchev's own. The Premier reached out and patted him on the stomach. Roaring with laughter, he exclaimed: "liar mat's what America is Security Officers, and even Lodge locked arms and formed a ring around the Premier. Garst no long er had to haul his guest along by the hand. A man with a temper himself, Khrushchev didn't flash it during all the bedlam. But he did wave his arms in a "get back" motion and joshingly remarked that "we'll Hardison of the English department; tum'the'DUlls loose 1 "against you."" Student Body Reaches High Siz Level p.m. in the basement of Graham Memorial. Seniors Fourth year med students Fourth year dental students Third year law students Wearing apparel: Men: dark coats, white shirts and ties Women: Black sweaters Representative Gary Greer, speak ing in opposition to the bill, stated that bearing of arms does not cause murder. "If this were so," he ela borated, "our founding fathers would not have included the right to bear arms in our Constitution." Greer went on to say that differing political doctrines was the cause of war and not armament. Rep. Roger Foushee then at tempted to show by an exaggera tion of the Soviet point of view that disarmament would be unwise. Rep. Don Jacobs warned against disarmament leading to a "peace ful police force." Jacobs stated that Hitler had in his S. S. and S. A. troopers just such a "police force" until the eastern front was at tacked full force. A i oil call vote defeated the re solution by a small majority, while a vote of all members and guests in the hall resulted in an overwhel ming defeat.

Nancy Combes, editor of the Quarterly, said "We are hoping to increase the circulation of the magazine this year and this can cnly take place if we have a large and enthusiatic staff. Out of this year's staff, the new editor will be nominated and it is therefore im portant to begin working with the magazine in its initial stages." Jock Fletcher, the Quarterly's business manager, said, "Students with a realistic business sense will be most welcome. I want to train someone to step into my shoes when I give up my position at the end of this year. We will not discourage anyone who is willing to give his time to helping boost the prestige and subscription lists of the Quar terly. We need workers as much as writers." Students who are unable to at tend the meeting are asked to leave their names and addresses at the Information Booth in Graham Me morial.

By LINDA BISER From advance indications, a rec ord number of students have been attracted to the UNC campus this year, according to Samuel French, assistant director of admissions. Although the official count will not be released for several days, the sizable student body is no won der when the advantages of the University are considered accord ing to French. The combination of the research, chemistry and physics departments have been ranked by Burke Davis of the Greensboro Daily News among the top three in the coun try. With increased emphasis on sci ence, this makes UNC a major at traction. A proposed one million dollar expansion of the math and science departments will lure even more scientifically minded scholars. Not only is Carolina the oldest state university, but it also has "tougher" admision requirements tnan most state universities. The general quality of students the Uni versity attracts is improving year ly, as proven by the fact that near ly all successful candidates for ad mission are in the top one-half of their graduating class and fewer students with math and language deficiencies are being accepted. The merit of the UNC Graduate School, based on the number of Ph.D.'s conferred, earned UNC one of 40 memberships in the Associa tion of American Universities which include United States and Canadian schools. Only three other southern universities, Vanderbilt, Duke and the University of Virginia, can claim similar distinction. . . The Freshman Honors Program is a pioneer in advanced education, offering courses designed for above average students. This is its sixth year and its fame has spread na tionally, especially since the Car- nagie Foundation donated $100,000 to its promotion. The Morehead Scholarship pro gram adds to the intellectual ranks by providing funds to cover the cost of education of selected out standing men students. A library, reported to be one of the top in the southeast, is another of the many things which exert an influence on many students' deci sions to come here. Here in the heart of the Farm Belt, Khrushchev repeated again his claim that Russia is going to outstrip the United States in pro duction of eveiy thing corn in cluded. He remarked that: "I must say you are a very wise, intelligent people in this part of the country. , But God has helped you a lot. He's given you good soil, but you mustn't think that God is helping only you. He's help (See KHRUSHCHEV, Page 3) Dead Letters Still looking for those letters that never came? They might be up in Ray Jef feries office in south building wait ing to be addressed to you at your dorm. Unless the letters have dorms and room numbers they will not. be delivered. Jefferies asks all students, es pecially the freshmen and new transfer students, to give their campus addresses completely when writing home and to friends.

Parkina Regulations Ammended Cars blocking legally parked vehicles on campus will be re moved, under an amendment to the Parking Regulations.

Under the new provision Chapel Hill police may authorize the re moval of any vehicle blocking oth ers legally parked within the de signated boundaries of the campus. One provision of the amendment provides for the removal "to a place of storage any vehicle parked or left standing on any street, way or parking area" for more than 48 hcurs.
