Young : Tim Burnett Richard Weiner Charles Whedbee .. John Jester The Very Best Of Hands? Friday night's debates between Kennedy and Nixon showed a quick ening of campaign tempo as the battle moves into its final month. Vice President Nixon pulled out all the stops in an attempt to regain some of the gound that he lost in the initial round of the "Great Debates," although neither candidate gained a clear edge in the Friday night haran gues dealing with Matsu-Quemoy, Cuba, U-2, and the summit. Both sides apparently are cognizant of the fact that the candidate who carries the large population states with the commanding balance of elec toral votes will be winner come No vember, since both seemed willing to stop all the waltzing about the po litical ring and throw some punches. Nixon, however, seemed the more aware of the value of the magic tube of TV in swaying some of the 63 mil lion voters who were looking in on the battle. The Vice-President assumed an at titude of aggressiveness and increased emphasis on differences in policy be tween himself and the Senator from Massachusetts. The attitude, however, broke down to political flagwaving on one occa sion as Dick declared that "Ameri can prestige is at an all-time high." Now his statement appears to us, as well as to Mr. Kennedy, to be a little hasty in light of the U.N. and Cuban situations. A healthy respect for the problem of declining U.S. prestige is called to attention by the defeat of the U.S. in the vote pertaining to the neutralist resolution seeking a renewal of nego tiations between the U.S. and Russia. The foothold gained by the Com munist bloc in Cuba would also seem to pose a slight problem as regards the prestige of the U.S. right here in our own hemisphere. We wonder, Mr. Nixon, isn't this type of statement slightly reminiscent of a tune from a recent Broadway Musical: "Our Country's in the Very Best of Hands." Sing on, Dick, sing on. Wayne King What's Khrushchev Up To? Plain citizens will be relieved if not comforted to know that a couple of questions uppermost in their minds are also puzzling diplomats at the U. N. What is Nikita Khrushchev up to and how is he doing? In the lounges delegates put the questions to one an other, and the answers supplied vary according to ideological background of the analyst. The Western diplomat believes the Soviet premier has alienated public opinion by his bad manners and in temperate behavior, but the neutralist diplomat has a slightly different view. Khrushchev's conduct, the neutral ist will" admit, is impolite, but never theless neutralist countries agree with a great deal of what Premier Khrush chev says. For example, the U. S. headed off a neutralist resolution calling for re newal of "contacts" with the Soviet Union, but in so doing it was forced to line up against the neutrals. The Communist bloc promptly de clared the fight between the U. S. and the neutrals as a victory for Khrushchev. As one Communist rep resentative put it, Khrushchev "did not even have to lift a finger" to achieve it." And an angry Prime Minister Neh ru, after having cautiously defended U. N. Secretary General Hammar skjold, turned and attacked the West after Australian Prime Minister Men zie accused the neutrals of playing the Communist game. The Prime Min ister joined other Afro-Asians in ad vocating some changes in the U.N. secretarist to correct its "Western" leanings, echoing the Khrushchev proposal of last week. In a manner similar to partisan ral lies currently going on in the U.S. presidential campaign, Khrushchev is pepping up his faithful and rally ing his partisans to the colors. Leaders of the East European coun tries are with him every day; he dines them, entertains them and discusses his problems. He has used this ses sion for all it's worth to beef up his position vis-a-vis Red China. As for his relations with the neu tral nations, the U. S. "victories" on several key questions do not tell the whole story. The way Khrushchev views the world, the balance of power has shifted the Soviet Union has not only grown to parity with the United States but the colonial system has broken up into a large number of new states. If the new countries of Asia and Africa can be guided toward the Com munist path, he feels, the Soviet Un ion will clearly emerge as the world's leading power. Thus the persistent and ardent wo6ing of the Asian and African diplomats at New York. Un happily there has been no compara ble activity on the part of President Eisenhower, Secretary of State Her ter, Ambassador Wadsworth or any other American. The U. S. has left the field almost entirely to Khrush chev. Many diplomats, writes Harrison Salisbury in The New York Times, believe that Khrushchev is certain to succeed eventually in forcing the resignation of Secretary Hammar skjold, even though the Soviet leader has mustered little support for his plan to alter the secretariat. Continues Analyst Salisbury: For the future, Mr. Khrushchev clearly expects that there will be changes in the United Nations, perhaps both in personnel and structure, to reflect the new balance of world power. To the West this may appear, as Mr. Khrushchev points out, "wrecking." But to the Soviet world and to parts of the African-Asian world Mr. Khrushchev ap pears as the champion of a new day. Indeed the U.S. "victories" at the U. N. should not be overrated. For Nikita Khrushchev will not go back to Moscow empty-handed. "If he does not achieve tangible goals in Western terms," comments Harrison Salisbury, "he will at least be able to tell the Communist world that for the first time a Soviet-Communist leader walk ed across the world's stage and made the rafters ring." This, Nikita Khrushchev can say, is no small achievement for the spokesman of a party that was hunted underground and exiled to Siberia by the czarist police only a little more than 50 years ago. From the Greensboro Daily News Chris Far ran Apartment Director Billy Wilder's film The Apartment is billed as a comedy", and it is that; it is not billed as a bit of perfect human pathos, but it is that too. Shirley MacLaine and Jack ' Lemmon, aided by Fred Mac Murray unusually cast as the heavy, do a masterful job of mirroring the foibles of little people in a big city. Set in a gigantic New York insurance firm, each of the leading characters scurries about searching for his own little "place in the sun." This could be unbearably pedestrian but the odd mixture of satirical finger-pointing and life's com edy of errors underscores the , excellent jobs done by Mac Laine and Lemmon. The story is quite simple: Lemmon, as an ordinary em ployee with visions of execu tive suites, finds that promotions are easy to come by as long as a key to his apartment circu lates among the wheels who want to have a complete night out on the city. The happy ending is no less enjoyable because it is predict able: Girl realizes what a heel Boss is and runs home to True Lover. But the serious and hilarious moments between the opening credits and the closing curtains are filled with flawless direction (Wilder first hit the major leagues of the film indus try with Some Like It Hot, also starring versatile Jack Lemmon) an excellent sound track and some photographic gimmicks guaranteed to make the viewer forget about his popcorn. "Ob, Yes He WAS Here, But He Just Left" Jack Gavcr Letter To the Editor: Several times this year I have attempted to have placed in the DTH articles of considerable in terest and signicance to the student body. Just as often these proposed articles have not appeared in the paper. In the past week I have at tempted to have a public state ment printed in the DTH con cerning sorority non-participation in Homecoming. This is still significant news -but the statement has not appeared. This year's Homecoming is the big gest in several years and many students have worked long and hard to make it a success. When the sororities vetoed participa tion, I hoped to convince them of their lack of responsibility to the student body arid returning alumni. With the facilities of the DTH this might have been ac complished. My second complaint con cerns announcements for pep rallies. On Saturday, Sept. 30, I told a DTH reporter our ten tative plans. Without consulting me again, the paper on Thurs day quoted me on the plans which I said were tentative. I called the DTH and asked this mistake to be corrected. Fri day's paper came out with the same pep rally plans. What must one call these ac tions? I call it being irrespon sible to the news and the stu dent body. The DTH is not owned by the staff or editor, it is owned by the students. The editor is responsible for its operation and we expect the best of him. Those of us who are also responsible to the stu dents need the DTH as a means of communication. We are utilizing (or trying to) the DTH to do our jobs in the most ef ficient manner. We expect the same of the Daily Tar Heel. Swag Grimsley POGO Linda Cravorra Snow Once upon a time in a little town in North Carolina there lived in a small, thatched house seven males . . . Grumpy, Bashful, Sleepy, Dopey, Happy, Sneezy, and Doc. Each morn ing they would awake to greet the day with a hearty groan, a splitting headache, and a lively song: "Hi, ho . . . Oh, No! its off to work we go. Let's give a cheer for the pro . . . fess . . . eer $(!:);$(:;)?? Hi ho . . . hi humm ... Zzzzzzz" V But the chimes rang out and the Seven Males left for their work in the salt mines. That evening when they returned, they had their nightly grog party, reminisced about the miseries of the day, sang "Hang Down Your Head and Die" and dropped off to sleep. The cycle of their rut was completed. - One bright and sunny day a young lady by the name of Snow White came upon the little thatched house of the Seven Males. Delighted at her discovery, she breathed a sigh of re lief that she had at last found a haven from the clutches and restrictions imposed upon her by the .Witch-Dean of her girls' school. Knocking on the door and finding no one at home she entered and stared in wide-eyed amazement at the disrupted house. Grog cans were lying all over the room along with dirty dishes, laundry, and un-made beds. The whole place reminded her of a wolves' den as in deed it was. Snow White started cleaning the house immediately throwing out the empty grog cans and dusting off the books putting them in a more prominent position. As the Seven Males returned that evening, they smelled the odor of delicious pies inter mingled with that of perfume. What was the brand White. Shoulders? Primitive? Cha nell No. 5? Whatever it was all Seven of the Males snapped out of their drowsy, dull obli vion and suddenly took a new interest in life. Following the aroma into the cabin, they saw Snow White. Grumpy smiled for the first time in his life, Sleepy woke up, Happy was ecstatic, Sneezy forgot about his cold, Dopey looked intelligent, and Doc, the talka tive intellectual, was speechless. The Seven Males decided to reconvert the garage into a house for her so that she could stay. Soon she began accompanying them to classes and the Seven Males discovered that & The 7 Moles girls aren't so dumb after all. There were only a few eruptions to the har mony the Seven Males began to rival one another for her attentions. Snow White liked them all and did not want to settle down to one Male. Grumpy became extremely bitter that the young lady refused to go steady with him and his attitude soon became unbearable. Finally, he decided to pour all of his frustra tions into a newspaper article condemning Snow White and including all women in gen eral. The article stated that she was flighty, snobbish, conceited, and insinuated that Snow White's reputation was far from "White." Helpless to defend herself against such pub licity, Snow White ignored it and happily continued to have fun. However, by this time the intellectual Doc had become highly in furiated that she did not spend enough time conversing with him, and he followed Grumpy's precedent with a similar article. His superior intellect led him to end his ar ticle with a satirical false advertisement: SNOW WHITE For Hire What do you need? a cook, a maid, a date, anything? Phone 0000-0 Snow White was extremely upset at such false mockery but before she had the oppor tunity to talk to Doc, she had a visitor ... the Witch disguised as an apple vendor. Not realizing that they were poisonous, Snow White bought an apple, ate it, and fell into a deep death-like sleep. The Seven Males re turned to find her lying on the floor. Ironi cally, Grumpy and Doc were the most griev ous that she would no longer be with them. After putting her in a glass coffin, the Seven Males unhappily returned to their old life. That night all Seven drank themselves into forgetful unconsciousness. The spirits of the Seven Males sunk so low in the coming days that none of them would work in the salt mines. And then out of nowhere came another Male who had heard of the many injustices the poor girl had received. Lifting the cover of the glass coffin, he kissed her. Snow White's eyes flew open, and she awoke from her death-sleep. None of the Seven Males won Snow White's heart. It was that Eighth Male who knew something about women. miZVj?
