Disaster Area By Eisenhower
WASHINGTON (UPD President Eisenhower has declared
coastal North Carolina a "major disaster fareayV authorizing
the use of federal funds in the state. " . .

earlier by Gov. Luther H. Hodges.
Eisenhower said "the hardship suffered by residents of
those areas is of deep concern to me and I am hopeful that
their distress may be rapidly alleviated."

Soviet Fighters Harass Allies
BERLIN (UPI) Soviet jet fighters in unusually heavy
numbers flew into Berlin's air links today in a tactic that
recalled their efforts to harass Allied traffic during the 1948
1949 airlift.
With all East Germany to fly over, reinforced Soviet jet
squadrons flew across the 20-mile-wide air corridors and took
off and landed from fields along the corridors while Western
planes were flying passengers and vitally needed supplies into
West Berlin.
Cubans Deny U.S. Demand
HAVANA (UPI) Cuban secret police Friday ignored two
formal American demands for the immediate release of a
pretty U.S. embassy secretary held on spy charges.
Embassy officials said they had no idea when Mrs. Mar
jorie Lennon, 26, a divorcee from San Francisco, would be
released. She is held at Army intelligence headquarters.
U.S. State Department officials said they were unable to
determine what, if any, basis the Cubans had for charging
that Mrs. Lennox was guilty of "intervention in Cuban do
mestic affairs" and "improper activities." She came to Ha
vana from Washington in 1S58.
Congressman Assails Perfectors
WASHINGTON (UPI) Rep. Francis E. Walter said Fri
day that one of the two code clerks who defected to Russia
belonged . to a subversive group "at some time or another." .
He declined to say -which man . it was or to name the or
ganization on the grounds it would hamper further investigation.-
-" ....
Walter did say, however, that the organization was on the
Attorney. General's list of subversive groups..
Nikita's Guards Warned
WASHINGTON (UPI) Russia has been warned that Pre
mier Nikita Khrushchev's bodyguards will not be permitted
to carry "sidearms" while they are in the United States, the
State Department said today.
State Department press officer Joseph Reap said the warn
ing was given the Russian delegation at the United Nations
and also was conveyed to missions there of other Communist
bloc nations and Cuba.
It was disclosed earlier that Cuban Premier Fidel Castro
arid his gun-toting bodyguards have been warned to leave
their firearms at home when they come to New York next
week for the U.N. meeting.

Demo Nominee Begins Tour
In Tobacco-Rich Greenville
By JONATHAN YARDLEY
CHARLOTTE Sen. John F. Kennedy, on the third
leg of a bullwind tour through the Tar Heel state, made a
"categorical, flat denial" of charges that Kennedy of
fices contributed to campaign funds of North Carolina's
Democratic candidate for Governor, Terry Sanford.
The Kennedy tour through the
state started slowly this morn
ing at 9:15 with the nominee's
arrival in tobacco-rich Green
ville. After a brief visit to a to
bacco auction, the senator rode
by motorcade to the football
stadium of East Carolina College.
In the lead car with him
were nominee Sanford. Rep.
Hopeful Buys
Leaf During
Tobacco Sale
GREENSBORO (UPI) Sen.
John F. Kennedy bought a
pound of tobacco at auction,
was serenaded by, an all-Negro
band, and became an honorary
citizen of Greensboro during the
first half of his 700-mile whirl
wind campaign tour of North
Carolina Saturday.
A tobacco warehouse at
Greenville in predominantly
agricultural eastern North Caro-
ina was opened especially for
the Democratic presidential can
didate's visit. There is no trad
ing on the Tar Heel state's
three flue-cured tobacco belt
markets during the weekend.
Kennedy, surrounded by a
milling throng of warehouse
men, auctioneers, farmers and a
large press corps, engaged in the
bidding while auctioneers Billy
Clark and Ray Oglesby went
through their traditional chant.
He purchased a pound of flue-
cured tobacco for 95 cents amid
cheers and clapping.

Students in the Infirmary
Saturday included Ronald Hoop
er, Fred Wrench, Sue Hara,
Peter Van Riper, James Fox and
Francis Griffin.
Ikti Si
William Mirischew of Wilson,' an art student in the Uni
versity, will present here during the month of September, a one
man show of creative abstract paintings.
Set up in the North Gallery of the Morehead Building, the
Minschew ' exhibit is in a style believed never before at
tempted. Minschew has been planning and constructing the paint
ings for several months, putting the finishing touches on the
large panels at a warehouse in his hometown. The paintings
themselves cover some 400 square yards of canvas.
. The exhibit represents a "rebellion" not against former
techniques of abstract painting but against the way in which
it is displayed and the relationship which it evokes between
the viewer and the paintings.
"Painting no longer has to be considered as an accent
or decoration to be added to architecture' said Minschew.
"I have sought to establish a closer connection between -sculpture
and painting in an architectural scale.
- "Most paintings are displayed in a limited rectangular
frame; the viewer's eye sees and engulfs them all at one
time. I have tried to break with this "by not confining ny
paintings to a limited space or shape in the normal sense
The" canvas articulates the-room space in a continuous jicrm
and movement. The constructed movements are heightened
by the painterly movements. The viewer's eye can notlsee it
all at one moment. He is drawn by the movement of the
painting to flow with it about -the room and is in turn-engulfed
by it; a complete reversal of the usual relationship
between viewer arid painting.
In order to increase this effect, the forms and ihe.
- paintings which cover them have been carefully pro
portioned to the height of an average man' and iaegpaa- -

County Democratic Chairman
John Clark. In the second car
were North Carolina senators
Sam Erwin and Everett Jor
dan, Gov. Luther Hodges and
Democratic nominee for
Lieutenant Governor Cloyd
Phillpot.
In his speech the senator de
parted from his prepared text
to stress what he called Ameri
can prestige abroad. ' .
He also outlined Democratic
foreign policy saying, "We be
lieve in an agricultural program
that lifts the farmer up."
The Highway Patrol estimated
some 15,000 persons were in at
tendance.
Next stop on the Kennedy
itinerary was Greensboro,
where the Democratic presi
dential nominee addressed an
estimated crowd of lO.CQQ at.
the airport. -' -
In what was called one of his
most effective speeches to date,
Kennedy again stressed the need
for a strong foreign policy so
that peoples abroad might "look
to us with confidence and hope."
The next scheduled stop was
Asheville, but the Kennedy
plane turned and headed to
Charlotte after circling over the
new Hendersonville - Asheville
airport for some 15 minutes.
The senator spoke to the
Asheville rally by telephone
from Charlotte. His appear
ance in Asheville was can
celled due to uncertain land
ing conditions at the new
field.
Throughout the state the sena
tor has been received with re
strained warmth and enthus
iasm. The Greensboro gathering
was the most enthusiastic.
Kennedy looked tanned, fit
and in good humor. He seemed
happy with his reception.
At this writing the nominee is
about to address a capacity
gathering at the Charlotte Coli
seum. The reports on this will
be in Tuesday's Daily Tar Heel.

Town Takes Snooze
Saturday
By SUSAN LEWIS ...
Ordinarily Chapel Hill is a
lively place.
But on weekends without
football games, the Hill is bare
ly stirring at least as long as
the sun is out. -
Saturday mornings run pretty
much as usual, with students
hustling and shuffling to and
from class (excepting, of course,
those who had a bad night Fri
day or who are infrequent Sat

of the human eye. If is impossible for the viewer to see
any part of the exhibit without movement of both his
eyes and his body.
The relationship between the movement of the form,
painting and viewer is not limited to any particular- part of
the room in which the exhibit is displayed, Minschew as
sures. .
"As the viewer enters the gallery, he may not at first be
aware that certain movements on one side . of the room are
related to movements on another side, but by moving and
transversing the distance from the entrance, he begins to be
come aware ; of the relationship between the "flow" and
rhythm of the paintings in various parts-of the room.
Every part is connected with other parts, though sepa
rated in space and are tied together by the movement of the
viewer. The viewer must become an integral -part of the ex
hibit. He can not remain an aloof observer as he may in
many conventional exhibits."
-"My 'rebellion! is against the limits that are placed on
painting by. shape, and size and the limits that have been
placed on the viewer by such conventional painting," Min
schew said,. - - v
The individual paintings have no titles. . The overall
exhibit has no theme or purpose other than to create an
environment to evoke some aesthetic experience. "It is
something to feel, to enjoy, to experience as an .-emotions!
and new experience." Minschew added. v ;;
The exhibit will be accompanied by music coming from
a hidden speaker. Bela Bartok's "Hungarian Music for
Strings," Alwin Nikolais and certain ' other : composers works
have a -definite rhythmic similarity to the , structure of. his
paintings, Minschew, feels. ...... -

'Afternoons'
When afternoon rolls -around,
however, the town takes a, nap.
Downtown the merchants do
a nalt-nearted business and
customers - lazily stroll the
streets.
Graham - Memorial is prac
tically vacant, except the TV
rooms (where the ball game
blares) and the Tar Heel office
(where the typewriters roar).
Few roam the campus.
It's too improbable that stu
dents are studying, it's too ludi
crous to think that all are
snoozing and it's too early to
head for WC.
As soon ' as the moon comes
out, Chapel Hill's inhabitants
come out of hiding and once
more fill the streets with cars
and the air with music and
chatter.
Sunday rolls around and
again the campus sleeps, hides,
studies or - whatever in pri
vate. -
But weighted steps and hag
gard looks on Monday testify to
the assumption that SOME
THING besides rest took place
during the" Hill's quiet hours.

Over 700 Two-Man Rooms
Occupied Sy Three Students
By WAYNE KING
" Overcrowding in UNC dormitories has reached mam
moth proportions due to this year's record enrollment.
At this time, more than 700 rooms normally occupied
by two men have been converted to three-man occupancy
through, the utilization of double-decker beds.
Coeds also face the same problem as coed enrollment
showed a marked increase overt
last year.
Some relief is in sight,
however, according to James
Wadsworth, director of hous
ing. Fraternity housing. Wads
worth feels, will provide for
some 200 lodgings by Thanks
giving, with another estimat
ed 150 choosing to acquire off
campus housing in Chapel
Hill and Carrboro.
This prediction, however, of
fers little consolation to cramped
students who are forced to stuff
the personal belongings of three
men into two bureaus and closet
space already inadequate for
two man occupancy.
Harrassed housing officials
did manage to afford some late
arrivals who were faced with
the not-too-encouraging spectre
of spending .the first days of
their college career in "The
Black Hole of Calcutta"Cobb
dormitory basement.
The use of Cobb basement
in years past for temporary
housing was this year avoid
ed by tireless work' on the
part of the . housing office,
which utilized every means at
its disposal to place students
immediately upon their arri
val. Housing director Wadsworth
stated that though the situation
was "at best, undesirable" co
operation and spirit among the
students was commendable and
appreciated.
He also seemed confident that,
though next year will be even
worse, overcrowded conditions
will be somewhat relieved by
new housing which is planned
for 1962.
Plans for two new men's dor
mitories are already under way,
with preliminary sketches al
ready having been submitted on
May 30 of last year. The new
dormitories should be ready for
occupancy by September, 1962.
Vice President
Sees No Sigi
iv o oign
Of Defeatism
United Press International
Vice President Richard M.
Nixon, sprinting through the
Midwest to wind up his first
week of campaigning, Saturday
said he found no sign of "de
featism" in Republican ranks.
Nixon also said Democratic
foreign policies were as "old
and outworn as a model-T
Ford."
The Republican presiden
tial nominee flew from Des
Moines to Sioux City. Iowa,
for a downtown rally; then
swung into Minnesota for a
news conference at Minne
apolis and an evening ad
dress at MacAlister College in
nearby St. Paul.
At Des Moines, Nixon told a
breakfast meeting of Polk
County Republicans that he saw
"evidence of optimism" among
the GOP faithful in his cam
paign stumping about the na
tion. "There is no reason what
ever for Republicans, in sup
porting our ticket this year, to
be' in a defensive position, or a
defeatist position regarding our
record or our program for the
futue" . Nixon said. . i
-k
Each of the dorms will be six
stories and will house approxi
mately 700 occupants each.
The new dorms will not
permit a material increase in
enrollment, however, and it
appears that they will pro
vide only temporary relief
from overcrowding, as pre
dicted enrollments continue to
climb at a frightening pace""
and actual enrollments con
tinue to exceed the predic
tions. Contracts have not
been let as yet and probably
will not for at least another
two months.
. Upon completion of the two
new men's dorms, Cobb dormi
tory will probably be converted
to occupancy by women stu
denj. Some small consolation is of
fered to those students who have
no plans for moving from their
crowded cubicles! A reimburse
ment of $12.50 is planned for
those students who occupy
crowded rooms for a period of
nine weqks or more.
