J Featured In Forum With Dr. Berger Iiy WAYNE KING "As exeniplil icd by thc accompanyin",- picture, there is a roar which lies on thc negative side of silence, and its visage may well leseinble such a skull-shaped spectre. That roar may easily explode avs ue wallow in our mindless and dispassionate cocoons." This was Carolina Forum c hair man 1'rautk Crowthcr's comment on what he considers "the sacred cow aura which surrounds our churches id our educational institutions.". This, however, is thc negative side of silence the side on which some declare tha'i. we stand. On the positive side cf the barrier of silence lies the individual, according to Dr. Maurice Natanson. "When one .splits the barrier of silence, one finds himself," says Dr. Natanson, who will speak on the topic or "Silence In Our Universities" tonight at 8 in Hill Hall. "As long as the individual lives in a world de fined by tradition, he cannot find himself. "To split silence, you must speak. And if you speak, the question is: What will you say?" asks Dr. Natanson. In a statement commenting on his tpoic, Dr. Na tanson said in part, "I am interested in escaping the almost inevitable stereotype that is invited by such MMrM.tv.W4r fy I tsl Seniors Asked To Attend Meet Today Which of the 27 different degrees v ill you receive at Commence ment'.'

Commencement procedure will be explained in detail. ""I would like to urge everyone who is to receive a degree from the University this spring to attend the meeting this afternoon," said David Grigg, student body presi dent. "Commencement Ls quite a com plicated procedure and in order to have a smooth running ceremony on graduation day, everyone re ceiving a degree should be present for the meeting." Over 2,100 persons will receive degrees at graduation ceremony Monday, June 6, n't twilight in Kenan Stadium. It will be the largest number of degrees ever awarded at the University. The I960 Commencement, June 4, 5 and 6, will be three days of re union activity by classes dating back to the first of the twentieth century as well as special events for graduating seniors and the pro fessional schools in the University.

' i After Months Of Waiting, The Yack Is Finally Here Tape Recorder Stolen From Parker Dorm Arthur Beaumont, campus police chief, said yesterday there has been an increasing amount ot thefts and vandalism on campus. Beaumont said an Ampex Stereo Tape Recorder was taken from 213 Parker Dorm Tuesday night. The dark grey recorder, owned by James G. Ferguson, was valued at $750. While investigating the case, of ficers discovered that other items had been missing, but students had not reported the thefts since the articles were of minor value, it was pointed out. All pawn shops have been alerted in the area to be on the lookout for the tape recorder. Anyone who has any information on the recorder has been asked to contact the campus police. Beaumont said there has also been much vandalism recently. Many drink machines and tele phones have been damaged. titles as "Silence In Our Univer- sites." The stereotype is essentially this: American Universities are apathetic. The students for the most part are unconcerned with the central issues of day. The pro fessors are either bored, boring, or sly. A discussion of "silence" must go beyond this standard image. At a deeper level, silence, re veals a central aspect of man's be ing in the world. What the individ ual takes for granted, his basic pre-suppositions, constitutes the lo cus oi silence. The central challenge to the uni versity community today ... is directed toward thc mythical world of bad faith. It is the task, of the student as well as the professor today to lo cate his own existence over and against the assumptions and the fundamental prejudices of tradition The Negro demonstration in es sence presents a basic challenge to a traditional silence, and that challenge involves the ambiguity of a world in which the individual will have to choose values for himself." Dr. Natanson's co-speaker for ihe evening, Dr. Peter Berger, will speak on "Silence In Our Churches." Dr. Berger is director of Church and Community of Hartford Sem inary Foundation. His topic will be a discussion of prevailing attitudes in the church of today and this attitude in rela tion to the self and the world. Dr. Berger is a native of Vienna, Austria, and came to the United States in 11)46. He is a graduate of the Univer sity of London and holds M. A. and Ph. D degrees fr&m the New School for Social Research. The author of articles in vari ous professic.nal journals, Dr. Ber ger reveals an encompassing knowledge of current and pas-1 re ligious movements and their ef fects. Following the two talks, a discus sion period will be held to allow the audience to ask questions from thc floor. . . . The Other Side Of Silence . . . Carolina Student, Friend Seeking Answer To Lost Confederate Sub By LUTHER SMITH A successful search for a "curs ed" submarine and the unfolding of the last chapter in its ill-fated career could put a happy ending on two years of research by a UNC student and his partner. Jerry C. Cashion, a sophomore history major, and Robert L. S. Cole Jr. first became interested in the sub two years ago. Since then they have used their spare time to compile information on the boat and are now confident they can locale it. Anyway, they plan to try this summer. Both are from States-ville. The submarine is, or was, the CSS Hunley, a Confederate "tor pedoboat" described as being "fish-shaped." The "unfolding" will be the discovery of why it sank after completion of its first mission. The fact that it did sink proba bly surprised no one, for that was not the first time. There was al' ways an air of mishap about the boat. After the Hunley was built at Mobile, Ala., it was capsized and sunk in port by the waves from a passing steamer. Two lives were lost in that accident. The ship was J raised and repaired, and it per- formed without incident during! succeeding test runs. j During one of the last trial runs I it was submerged but failed to surface upon command, resulting I in the loss of its seven man crew i and its captain, who was ironical-! ly its builder and financer.- The shiD Was again raised, repaired. and tested. Then it was moved to Charleston Harbor. On the night of February 17, 1864, the Hunley slipped from its dock into the inky depths of the harbor. At some time after 9:15 p.m., it rammed its spar torpedo into the side of the USS Housatonic, a sloop of war de ployed in blockading the port of Charleston. The Hunley's victim immediately sank, but the sub marine never returned to dock, if Jerry and Bob de find tho sub perhaps the facts concerninr; its disappearance can be cleared where to look, because a few years after the war, a "fish-shaped" boat was seen lying close to the Housa tonic by a diver who was examin ing that wreck. But after 96 years of being submerged in salt water, it is doubtful that much of the sub remains. Of even more value than the submarine's hulk will be the papers and documents il may hold. If you believe in superstitions, then yon might say it will never be found because of its "cursed" nature for seeming to want to stay below surface. Jerry's reply to that is, "We think it will be well worth while to look for it anyway. up. They are fairly sure they know j Besides, we aren't spooky."
