Campus Briefs 6 Students Caught On Duke Campus Given Reprimands Student Council has given official reprimands to six students who were apprehended on the Duke University campus Nov. 25, 2 a.m. The students, with paint and paint brushes, were caught by Duke Campus police before any painting had been done. Chairman Erwin Fuller said in passing the sentences the council considered the fact that no warning of the seriousness of the action was given the student body although plans had been formidated at a group meeting of UNC-Duke student leaders to urge that all forms of vandalism be avoided. "The fact that five of the six were freshmen and residents of Durham where they had observed UNC-Duke pre-game activities of recent years also influenced the council," he said. Fuller indicated that if the students had succeeded in carrying out their intentions to paint some of the Duke property, the sen tences would have been undoubtedly more severe. "It is unfortunate," Fuller concluded, "that some of our stu dents feel it an expression of school spirit ot attempt to paint or otherwise deface property on the Duke campus. The Student Coun cil cannot condone or tolerate this willful intrusion upon the Duke campus with the intent to deface and destroy property. Dramatic Arts Faculty To Speak Six members of the Dramatic Arts Department will be featured on various panels during, the annual meeting of the American Edu cational Theatre Association which meets in Washington Dec. 28 and 29.

Davis is executive vice president of the South-, eastern Theatre Association and will attend an Executive Commit-; tee meeting of that organization while he is in Washington. ; Other topics to he discussed by the University faculty members are "The Director and the New Playwright" by Foster Fitz-Simons, "Tin Epic Insight." by Russell Graves, "Presentational Theatre Prior to Bertolt Breclit" by Kai Jurgensen, "Myth, Mortality and Emotion . . The Playwrights Search for Material" by Thomas M. Patterson, and "The Educational Theatre's Responsibility to its Audience" by John W. Parker. 'World Legal Order' Out Today "Peace cn earth and throughout interplanetary space" is an unofficial and unauthorized subtitle of "World Legal Order" by Wal lace McClure, published, by the University of North Carolina Press today. Dr. McClure is consulting director of the World Rule of Law Cen ter at Duke University. "Never has the vital need for effective universal law been so perilously acute," states Dr. McClure. In a' book described as "timely, convincing and practical," Dr. McClure tells the people of the United States what they themselves can do, through their courts, Congress, and Prsident, to establish the rule of law in the world and to set the pace for other peoples. rhat can Americans do? What can the individual citizen do to make his voice heard in promoting effective world legal order? McClure says that the simplest contribution ,by Americans would be a change in the attitude of their courts toward the rela tive legal position of treaties and national legislative enactments. "Legal logic prescribes the supremacy of supernational common law," he points out. Realizing that laws must be both asserted and enforced, he stresses that changes and developments necessary in existing law, the United Nations, and other legal institutions to make them a satisfactory basis of world legal order.

WUNC-TV Slates 3 Christmas Productions For This Week AAonument To Beethoven's Works Lies In Appreciation, Enjoyment By DAVE JONES The new symphon's first performance was over. The audience was wildly .showing its appreciation, but the great composer at the podium heard noth ing. A little girl, the flutist in the great orchestra, got up from her chair, walked to the podium, tug ged the composer-conductor by the sleeve, and pointed his attention to the audience's applause. Thus was Ludwig van Beethoven able to ap preciate the enormous reaction to his "Ninth Symphony," written and performed years after he lost his hearing. Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany, Dec. 16, 1770. His father was a singer in the Elector of Bonn's Choir. Johann van Beethoven was a task master over his son. He taught him violin and piano and forced him to give public concerts for money. By the age of 11 young Ludwig had composed and published three piano sonatas, and by 14 he was drawing a salary of 150 florins a year as as sistant court organist. At the insistance of Hayden the Elector of Bonn sent young Beethoven to Vienna in 1792. He joined Viennese high society and entertained and amaied them with his musical talents and his attitude toward them. "It is good to mingle with aristocrats," he said, "but one must know how to impress them." Impress them he did, and the whole world qf music benefitted. A partial list of his works in cludes the nine symphonies, five piano concertos, 38 sonatas for piano, an opera, an oratorio, 75 songs with paino accompaniment and seven books of English, Scotch, Irish, Welsh and Italian songs for voice, piano, violin and cello. Among his most popular and best known works are the "Fifth Symphony," "The Emperor Concer. to" and the "Eroica (Third) Symphony." It is said that he ripped out the title page of his Eroica, with its dedication to Napoleon, when he heard that the general had proclaimed himself emperor. Beethoven's hearing began to bother him at 30, and he was stone deaf at 50. Bad colds and pneu monia weakened his resistance, and after several unsuccessful operations Ludwig van Beethoven died in Vienna March 26, 1827. A great talent was gone, but a magnificent man ument to that talent still remained. That monument is the appreciation, enjoyment and inspiration given by his great music to the ages. Three Christmas programs of im portance will originate from the three studios of WUNC-TV this week. A Christmas concert by the Wom an s College singers ana musicians will be telecast tonight by the Greensboro studio. An unusual dramatic-musical version of the Na tivity story will originate Thursday night fromthe Chapel Hill studio. Another Christmas concert is scheduled for Friday night, fea turing the Raleigh Oratorio So ciety in its annual program, tele cast by the Raleigh studio. Today, 9-10 p.m. WUNC-TV studio in Greensboro will present a Christ mas concert from Aycock Auditori um with the Woman's College Choir, and the 13-piece Woman's College Chamber Players. Featured selection of the eve ning will be the first presentation in this country of Cedric Thorpe Davie's arrangement of "Rejoice and Be Merry." The Woman's Col lege Choir, composed of 60 voices, is under the direction of Harvey Woodruff. On Thursday evening, 9-10 o'clock the Chapel Hill studio will present a dramatic and musical rendition of the story of the Na tivity, entitled "The Riddle of Ue Sphinx." Taken from medieval and mod ern sources, and with a backdrop of classical and folk religious music, the program consists of a series of readings, with original woodcuts, by the 17th century German artist, Al brecht Durer and other artists, dis played throughout the program The woodcuts art on loan from the Ackland Art Museum. On Friday, 9-10 p.m. the State College Studio of WUNC-TV will present The Raleigh Oratorio So ciety in its annual Christmas con cert. Major work of the evening will be the Gloria, by the Italian composer Vivaldi, who was a con temporary of Bach, and provided inspiration for much of Bach's mus ic. Following this, the society will sing a medley of Christmas carols heard around-the-world. The Ra leigh Oratorio, now in its 18th con secutive year, is a volunteer organ ization under the direction of Ed ward Blanchard. of prospective jurors prior to the convening of the trial.

The students are selected by the university on the basis of scholar ship, student activities and charac ter. They must also submit a pa per to the selection committee tell ing of their desire to go to Oxford. The study at Oxford consists of from two to three years. There are three terms of eight weeks each starting in October to June. They have a six week Christmas and spring vacation, with four months in the summer. Fuller, a business economics major, is interested in The Po litics, Philosophy and Economics course at Oxford. He said he is intrigued with the irregular way of teaching: "A student does not auena classes Dut works under a tutor and his only exam is at the end of his two years." Airlines Nearly Full For Holiday Rush Home At least two airlines have re ported near capacity bookings for the approaching holiday season. One airline noted Monday that their west-bound flights for Sat urday are full, including an ex tra flight put on for the holidays. However, they did state that space was available on flight headed east, and while traffic was running heavy in all directions, bookings were still being taken 'for Dec. 18, 20 and 21. ETI Officers Travel At Low Price Carolina students are being of fered an "unique travel opportun ity under the auspices of Educa tional Travel Inc. (ETD. ETI was established in 1948 as a non-profit travel organization, whose "purpose was to provide in expensive travel programs to stu dents as individuals and as groups. The outstanding feature of the ETI tours is the relationship which participants have with students of the various coun tries. ETI works in close coop eration with the European stu dent unions which make many of the travel arrangements and provide guides. Each student guide is an able representative of his country and is familiar with the history, customs, art, music and literature of his na tive land. ' Once in Europe, the participant is given great opportunity to be come familiar, not only with the customs of the land, but the peo ple also. He meets students, their friends and families and is urged to take part in all types of social and cultural activities with stu dent groups. Included in this program are such things as: theatre parties, skiing, visits to museums, galler ies and to the summer portion of the Olympic Games in Rome. CHILDREN'S SHOWS NAR RATORS James W.
