University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, North Carolina Dear Nancy and Jim: A recent note from Mr. Shot's indicates you are expecting to yo over your v,oal of Sl.OO. This a ehievement and success is di rectly attributable to the admin istrative ability, the enthusiasm and the dedication both of you expressed during the preparation plans and actual campaign. You will be interested to know that only once before, according to my records, was over S3UO0.00 able to be raised through an en deavor such as the Chest cam paign. This was during the year 1947-43 when the Y.M.C.A. and Y.W.C. sponsored a campaign in which World I'uiversity Service was the only recipient, with the re.-ult that S421G.00 was raised. Therefore, both of you are to be highly commended for r.cconip lishin t something thai has rot been acconii I:.-!.; d on your camp us for the last twelve years. It has been a p!va-ure to work with both of you during the past few months. I only wish a- much cooperation anil enthusiasm could be expressed from the other H4!1 campuses in the teqi slates of the South. Many many thanks to ou and Jim for a job well done. As always, if I can be of any service to you and our campus. 1 trust jou w.li not hesitate to let me know. Leon O. Marion Regional Executive Wcrld University Service As the University officials may wonder what caused the U.N.C. students to protest to the action of the University policement. I would like to state the follow ing three incidents as a possible explanation of our acti ns: 1. One of the university police men, while riding by Joyner Dormitory became infuriated when his car was hit by a snow ball. He stopped his car and im mediately blamed the offense on a bystander who knew nothing about it. The student, of course, protested and accompanied by several friends, was transported to the police station. After the policeman decided that nothing could be proved the boys were released Later another police car came up and officer Beaumont got out. He was struck by a snow ball after which he unholstered his revolver and entered Aycock dormitory. Prior to this, officer Beaumont had threatened to fire the dorm janitor by saying, "If you don't put down that window you may as well look for another job, because I will have you fir ed. The officer had said this while some dorm residents were hurling snowballs out of the third story window. Later offi cer Beaumont was hit and. this was when he unholstered his re volver. This incident caused much disturbance. Whether or not alterations should be made in the present setup of the uni versity police force, remains to be seen. pus as Student Body President next year, we would like to place c-ur.-elves co. record a.s favoring Djvid and ask our friends to sup port him a'so.

We. tne unJtrsigneJ members oi The Daily Tar Heel staff, wish to take thL opportunity to make public cur support for Ed Riner as editor of the DTH. We feel that he is by far the most capable and best qualified candidate lor the editorship. Our conskision is based, to a large ""xltv.t. upon Ed's long ex perience with the intricacies of newspaper wprk. In addition to his reporting experience, he has been actively affiliated with every phase of newspaper publication. Crupled with his demonstrated journalistic, abilities, we know that I believe that the dents at CAROLINA some of the female students re member the attempted panty raid just before Thanksgiving. This writer believes that a dem onstration of this type is neces sary once in a while to break the more or less boring routine oi simple academic pursuit. 0 Well, it has been brought to my attention by certain female sources that the female students are ready and would enjoy a good, old-fashioned panty raid. They want to have a good time once in a while, too. To the CAROLINA- male, let me direct this question. Who are we, mere males, to deny the fe males a panty raid? The time is right. Let us strike now while the iron is red hot. Let nothing stand in our way. Strike now while victory is in sight. Our motto is. "WE WANT PANT IES." Live up to it men. With hope, P. T. Harris, III Ed Riner Reporting Edward Neal Riner And thi- i- too bad. P. i- loo bad ter North Carolina tb.it Ihere is n d cnunr.' Lheral in the race. It is too bad for Tcrr Sanloid that be can't be as liberal a.s we h-. li: ve be w ants to be. He is no more guiltv of platitudenous statements than his opponents. He is no more guilty of hedg ing on issues. But neither is be a crusading liberal. Neither does he appear to represent a "new day" for North Carolina, but more likely, if his speech is an indication, a continuation of what we have so often had Should he win on May 2b a.s we expect he will, we hope his actions as Governor will be based on firm convictions. It is unfortunate that North Carolina won't per mit Terry Sanford to speak out as he might be inclined to do. This is the dilemma of politics and politicians. What About This? .

However, iti tabling the Plannim; Hoard's lctominendation, the aldermen remembered an old orinance which permits three or more (ireek-letter houses to build a' court in an are; - without the area having; to be reoned. The catch here is the area is limited to three acres. Three or more fraternities on three acres absurd. I i l and Little Irateinity courts have proven that more than just land lor a house ; .id a bit of yard is needed. A court' needs tluee things: space lor houses, space lor paikiii'4 and space lor lecreatiou. The I'uiversity has already recognized these needs. The new dorm aiea has a laip,e puking lot ;..nd several tennis conns in ad dition to the buildings. Fraternities and donns have at least two things in common: they are residential units and the hou-e en ergetic college students. 1 he enciclic college students are the reason the reonin; was tabled. The towns people in the proposed area ; .e lihtino the reoninv, plan because of the noise and iow diness of the (iieeks. We admit that the president day (Greeks are not the quiet ones of ancient Athens, but they do ;o to the mar ket place to buy things. I he townspeople have the tiht to liht in that they were in the are; liist. They have settled in their houses and planted their gardens. They enjoy hi-fi sets in their living rooms, but they do not appreciate the King ston Trio bursting through their bedrooms late at nijjht. Only one area is involved in the now .dead, prcjwised reoiling. However, the fraterni ties that would like to move in that area would move from various parts of Chapel Hill. The board made its decision in consi dering only one part of the town. Since the board is supposed to represent all of Chapel Hill, it should consider other residential areas annoyed with fraternities. True, these other areas do not want a fra ternity court, but they are not pleased with the fraternities already in their area. Although it would bother one back in the town, the whole town probably would be happier if the aldermen leoned the area in question in oieler to more or less consolidate Creek houses in one place. Dear Editor: We reside in Aycock Derm. For the past several months it has been a rare occasion indeed when we have received our copy of The Daily Tar Heel. In fact, the failure of delivery has oc cured so frequently that unnl last week we were under, tho impression that The Daily Tar Heel wras only published four times a week as that is the num ber of editions that w have been receiving. We have discussed this failure of deliv ery among ourselves, and since we have been unable to ascer tain any logical reasons for it. we' have supposed that your de livery staff from time to time is unable to find Aycock Dorm. Since you and your staff are probably so busy writing editori als on liberal lights, sit-down strikes, and "the dear ole demo cratic pary," we don't feel that you will be able to devote the proper amount of time in seek ing the solution to this problem, thus, we have taken the liber'y of enclosing a 9 by 12 inch map of the campus of the University of North Carolina which shows in detail and in scale the loca tions of the various -buildings here at the University. We have also taken the liberty of drawing one very bright red line extend ing from Graham Memorial which houses your offices to Ay cock Dorm. You will find that a study of this map will show you that Aycock Dorm is located in the lower quad on the corner of Cameron Avenue and Raleigh Street. We sincerely hope that this map will be of great assis tance to you when you under take the problem of finding Ay cock. We would also like to sub mit this map for your future reference in finding other camp us buildings which, from time-to-time, you may have the de sire to frequent. We suggest that you either post this map on a conspicuous spot on your office wall, or place it in your office file so that you will not lose it as you lost Aycock Dorm. In conclusion, we offer this brief summary of our problem: WHAT ABOUT THIS??? - 1. The DTH is published 6 times a week. 2.Ayeok receives DTII approxi mately 4 times a week. The DTH staff must exert a vastly greater effort. There's still time . . . brother. More Sitdown Mr. Davis Young, Ed'tor Hie Daily Tar Heel University of North Carolina Chapel Tliil, X ..- th Carolina Dear Mr. Editor, In the last two m o n t h s newspapers, throughout the south hae been carrvin-j; headlines, pictures, editorials and news storie- concerning the Negro sit-down strikes and protests. In our own state, Charlotte, Creensboro. Durham, and Raleigh papeis -to mention the larger ones - have been flood ed with the same news events. To get a bit closer home, last week the News of Orrjnge Countv-a Ireelv distributed paper-c arried a lather -extensive account of the sitdown strike presently occurring in Carrlxno. The Daily Tar Heel also has carried several series of pictures and news articles regarding the sit down strikes in our own locale. L'ndoubtedlv Mr. Kditor. something important is happen ing in the south; however the students at l..C. either have not been reading the papers enough to know what has been going 011. or else they have read the papers and have developed the .ittitude of "I eouldn't care less."

Weighty issues, I don't de nv, but hardlv anything that would give Chapel Hill an "intelee tual" reputr.tion.

In stead it would be more fitting to refer to Carolina now as "that place in the South not ed lor its tudcnt ap;.ihv". I feel that this is a true summary of what goes on among the students at Carolina.

I wonder: what will it take to -hake the throne of this spectre? What will it take to make this place a I'niversity again, wliete ideas and movements are in rich fer ment? In my opinion the I'niversity of North Carolina is vitally at stake now. For students to remain silent now in lull lace view ol a -crisis which threatens their own existence as a I'niversity community, and which questions as well their humanity, would mean that this I'niversity is but an empty shell of state owned buildings and these students have failed to be responsible' persons in a world which demands responsi bility if it is to continue to exist. The era of student apathy on many southern Negro campuses is over. When will it be over at Carol ina? It is my wish that Carolina students ex amine these rights that they claim 'for them selves on the basis of the fact that they are human beings l ights such as freedom, equal ity, pursuit ol happiness and obvious others. I hen I beg vou to ak these simple ques tions: II I claim these rights due to my hu manitv, why can't a Negro claim the same rights because of his humanity? And then: II the Negro is doing exactly this and yet tjiese human rights are denied him. shouldn't I lake a stand in favor of the Negro being granted equal human -rights? I urge vou to take such a stand. I urirc .'on to join with other students on this cam pus and tluoughout the South in demanding that the Supreme Court decisions be en io (eel. in public school education, that ie t t:r, t and tiator owners grant equal pihiicges to Negioes, and that these own ers be re-issiued that they will not lose your patronage if they allow their establishments to become integrated.
