This stall numlK-r is Rus ty Hammond. Mr. Heller slrikcvs me as the type who lakes everything that is sai.l seriously. He couldn't possibly have a sense of humor wi h such a dispoNition as this. As I read his article. I woniered if Mr. Hel ler ever thought Ntht Rusty 's column might be all in fun. Isn't this uhat the title ' Sideswipes.' . suggests? I think so. Every day, students all over -the camims are making remarks similar to those Rusty uses ia.his columns remaiks. having to do vith the Honor Coun cil, Woman's Residence Council, the football team, and many othJ ers. But does .anyone really mean what he says about .these institu tions? fclxecpt for a few, I believe 1 can say "No." These remarks are typical of students on -every campus ia the na'.ioti. and.I tla.e say that even Mr.. Heller falls in-, to this category. Yet he has the nerve to ridicule a member of the Uai'.y Tar Heel staff lor some thing he most -likely does himself. Mr. Editor, you may have no ticed that Mr. Heller had every thing to say , against Rusty'.s idea of keeping the ' Carolina Spirit" high. but . not . once did he , give ;.ny suggestions as to how it ct-uld be better accomplished. Thereiore. unless Mr. Heller has a better idea or thinks he can do a better job 'both of which I ttoubt very .seriously. I suggest that he keep his thoughts to himself. .

Let's go to Yale! Let's go to U. Va.!" English majors talk of 'Virginia's : Faulkner, his tory majors of Harvard's Sehlesingen sociologists of Harvard's Iliesman. while their own professors have to teach classes filled with students who arc con vinced that the course isn't going to' be much good because Duke has someone in thc same field who's "so much bcter." This attitude of academic negativism is not one in which a university community -thrives. Yet this University thrives. No one really knows why, al though perhaps the reason can be traced down to a small group of students who get at least ' some degree of enjoyment out of attending a couple cf their courses, who do their reading diligently and with some interest, and who seem to feel that may be the guy at the front of the room knows more than thev do. , - The most puzzling aspect of thc attitude is that it would seem natural that students, being prideful like all human beings, would want to bolster their own egos through support of their college. Yet they seem to feel that their ego rises higher if it ap pears they themselves are superior to that college. Well, let it be said with a great deal of certainty and without a moment's hesitation that none of them are. Or should it be said none of us arc. There is more here than any of us could hope to gain in a lifetime of painstaking and devoted study. Every student would discover a new leash on his intellectual life if he would change his approach to his education and begin to think of it as some thing greater than he is and to which he must recognize his inferiority. We have a great deal to learn of the knowledge that man has carefully stored away during his short tenure on this earth. We are not going to learn any of it if wc are convinced that thc men who try to teach it to us do not know anything themselves. Few students here or anywhere else arc fortunate enough to be on a level footing with their teachers. When all stu dents recognize this they will begin to learn more and the teachers arc gonig to feel more disposed to teach it to them.

Report To Trustees STUDENT PARTICIPATION IN THE BOND ISSUE ELECTION (PART 61 On October 27, the Bond Issue Election for Capital Improvements in North Carolina was voted on by the citizens of this state. Passage of this by- a majority of the voters meant that 34.4 million dollars would be devoted to construction and renovation of state facilities. A great portion of this money was devoted to new construction at the University of North Caro lina. For this reason, Student Gov ernment took an active interest in securing passage of the Bond Is sue by the following action: 1. In cooperation with the UNC amateur Radio Club, the Aca demic Affairs Committee, ch.ared by Norman B. Smith, sponsored the transmission of a numocr of radio messages from students to their parents, the stipulation be ing that they include a request tt vote in favor cf thc Bond Is sue. These messages were sent to 47 communities. 2. A booth was set up in Graham Memorial where a master list of all the state newspapers was kept. Studcats wc:e encouraged to sign this list and write letters to thc editors of their home town news papers. 3. There was a week long drive dedicated to getting students to write to their parents urging them to vote in favor of the Bond Issue. 4. Brochures were printed by S.udent Government that were en tilled "Urgent." These brochures were distributed along with a booklet from the Committee of Sixty to all residence units at thc University. Enough copies of "Urgent" were printed so that every student received one and was urged to enclose it in his next letter home. 5. A special edition of the Daily Tar Heel was printed through the efforts cf Presk.t William C. Friday, Chancellor William B. Ay cock. President of the Student Body Charlie Gray, Editor Davis Young, and many others. 17,500 copies of the paper were printed and students, all parents of North Carolina residing students, and all people on President- Friday's and Chancellor Aycock's mailing lists received copies. The special issue was six pages long and con tained many pictures, graphs, and statements concerning the vote. The issue was financed chiefly through the efforts of thc Commit tee of Sixty and the UNC Student Legislature. . ,. . It was felt that "the symbol of an informed, interested student ' soliciting aid that would come not to his own, but to future genera tions of students in this institution surely would have an effect upon the outcome of the vote."

The onlv official voice ol discontentment came from the Polish Student Delegation. This phase of getting to know Polish senti ment, Polish conditions. and meeting mam Poles was to Mr. Perghahn the real and ei important value of his trip. As they traveled visiting dillereiit parts of Poland, Mr. lierghahn was impressed by the socially and economically poor condi tions.
