A reporter must keep his imagin ation alive. A. G. ' I'cto hey, director of the I'XC Ne.vs Bureau, who has been I a jcun.alist fcr over 20 year.s. thinks that a goo.1 reporter must Guatemalan : Students Observe Law School Thirteen Guatemalan law students r.n.1 two law professors from Gua temala have observed the Law School Monday through today. They are paiiicipating in a stu dent exchange program sponsored by the United States Department of State. The three-day visit to Chapel Hill is the tail end of their trip in the United States. They previously vis ited Law Schools at American Uni versity, Columbia, Bucknell. Har vard and Boston College. This aft ernoon they will visit Duke Univer sity and then move to Miami, Fla., where they will depart for home. George Hardy, assistant profes- j sor of law. is their guide during ; their stay 'here. The visit is being conducted on an informal basis with the students j asking many questions, attending : clashes and seminars, and partici- pating in tours. Also scheduled were conferences with the editorial staff of the North Carolina Law Review and with officers of the Law Stu dent Association. In addition to visiting the Law School they visited the Institute of , Government Tuesday. Last night j they had dinner at a fraternity j house. have imagination. He said children have greater imagination than most adults be cause imagination is beaten out of a person as he becomes an adult. A reporter cannot afford to let his imagination go to waste. He can keep his imagination alive by digging into news stories and finling excting and appealing aspects to usually straight news. The reporter must not take him self "dead serious"; he should not be afraid of being criticized or to try something new. Ivey, who graduated from UNC in journalism, has retained his vivid imagination through the years. As an editorial writer in Winston-Salem he had to constant ly use his imagination to bring out the whys and wherefores of things he used in his writings. His imagination is still workng for him now as director of UNC's bureau. He says that he is always getting information that professors are going somewhere or have just returned. He has to dig into why the professor went and what he did there. The journalist brings out that the professor was associated with others from universities all over the country and world and that the meeting was important to those in that field. This is imagination at work to make an ordinarily dull story in teresting and appealing. A reporter should be interested in his work. He should enjoy it and have fun doing it, but he must be accurate and respect his readers enough to get things right. The reporter has his duty to the public to report the news, but he must make sure his story is "just and with mercy" to those involv ed. To make sure that he does all these things, a reporter has to be a "generalist", that is he must know something about everything. He has to read up on science, medi cine, politics and others in order to write with authority. "A newspaper man can talk to anyone," says Mr. Ivey. Doctors, scientists and other specialists have their own jargon. They can speak to their colleagues, but the ordinary man on the street would be lost in their conversation. The reporter has to translate this "foreign language" into simple terms for his readers. "Yes, if I had it all to do over again I would be a newspaper man," says Ivey. He says that he would necessarily do the same things again that he has done in the past, however. Love of job, imagination, love for people, respect and devotion to duty as a . newspaper man makes a good reporter according to the director.

But few people realize that the most abundant aquatic life is microscopic in size, floats aimlessly with the currents and forms the grazing lands of all natural waters. These plants and animals are called plankton and are as important to fishes, shell fish, and all other aquatic animals as grass is to cows and indirectly to man. It teases the imagination to realize, for example, that every 400 pound marlin landed represents the consumption of 20 tons of plank ton. DYNAMICS Dr. Gerald S. Posner. oceano yrapher at the UNC Institute of Fisheries Research at Morchead City, has just received a three-year grant of $26,500 from the National Science Foundation to study the "Dynamics of an Estuarine Plank ton Population" The investigation will concentrate on Pamlico Sound and the lower reaches of the Neuse i'tivcr and will involve direct study of Plankton and their physical and chemical environment.

The floating plants phytoplankton) are a lar more important food source in thv sea than attached plas. Ary '.iimc." can tell you ex actly vha'i phytoplankton require: light, plcn'y of nutrient and rea sonable temperatures. In fact you might say that nature had "hydro ponics" long before man even thought about it. Of course, except for proper temperatures and salt content, all the plankton animals zooplanktcn require is plenty of phytoplankton to eat. MORE AND LESvS Research that Dr. Posner has con ducted over the past four years in the North Carolina sounds indicates that phytoplankton are much more abundant in Pamlico Sound than would be expected from the small amount of nutrient present in those waters while in the Neuse River there is much less phytoplankton present than the large amount of nutrient available would lead you while in the N -use River there is much less phytoplankton present than the large amount of nutrient available would lead you to expect. Furthermore, there is a remarkably small quantity of zooplankton in the North Carolina sounds. The Na tional Science Foundation grant will make possible a detailed study of these and other problems. Dr. Posner, an oceanographer, has performed marine biological re search at Morehead City .since 1955. He received his doctorate degree in oceanography at Yale University in 1958 and has degrees from the City College of New York and the University of Miami. He has in vestigated plankton productivity in the waters of the Peru Current off South America. Since coming to the University of North Carolina Institute of Fish cries Research, Dr. Posner has been concerned primarily with gain ing a 'better understanding of the complex environment in which the multitude of marine organisms are found. Physical and chemical changes in this environment may produce a profound effect upon the plants and animals inhabitating the area which is reflected in fluctua tions of food supplies, migrations, reproduction, growth, and survival. Such changes may scii-jslv affect i the future fisheries po.er.ti .1 cf the state and, when possible, should be 1 t suaraea against. To this end. Dr. Posner's research program, con sisting of regular cruises on the sounds, contributes basic data con cerning the environment of the es tuarine plants and animals which are of use to investigators working on particular plant or animal groups such as mollusks, crustaceans, fishes, and algae. dint western-style t the Ranch House on THURSDAY'S y v 1 reneci uiUfiir Especially Bee U al Ghfetnias ! : : j l3ij Am - - - ' : , t - 'r V PARKER SUPER "21" PEN 4 1 v 5 This year, for those ''- special people on your ' 'C Christmas list, choore the famous Parker 4 SUPER "21" pen.

But she is a brave, brawny girl and she never complains, and by and by her patience is rewarded: in the summer of 1859 she wins a football scholarship to Alabama.

They are poor as snakes; they work from cockcrow 1 evensong; their dear old father Philip is away with the Uakm armies; and they can't do a thing with their hair, U. Still, nothing can dampen the spirits of madcap Meg, joroiar Jo, buoyant Beth, animated Amy, and crazy old Marmee, m the merry March girls laughingly call their lovable mother;. Well sir, one Christmas the March girls get an invitation to a ball. They are dying to go because they never have any fun at all except maybe a few chuckles during the hog-rendering season. But Beth reminds her sisters that tbey ean hardly go traipsing off to a ball and leave poor Marmee all alone at Christmas time. The sisters swear a lot, but they finally azree with Beth. - Marmee, however, will not bear of it. 11 Land's sakes, httk women!" she cries. "You must go to the ball aatj have some fun. There will be fruit punch and Toll House cookies and Early American sandwiches. Best of all, there w3I be mom dancing.

"The best!" cries Marmee- "Philip eouH morris m soft paek or flip-top box and was full of fine, fresh, natural mildness F' The girls are cheered to hear this and go to the bail. Marmee stays home alone, but soon gets a wonderful surprise: Philip comes back from the war!
