For the University of North Car
alina, 1961 was a year of progress
and disappointment, happiness and
sorrow, like any other year. Like
other years too, the year at UNC
was reflected in the news columns
of the Daily Tar Heel.
There was a somber side to the
news, of course: basketball scan
dals, cyanide deaths, and the los
ing end of a state bond election.
In other moments, Carolina lost
a basketball coach and gained $7
million from Uncle Mot.
Theater integration and deferred
rush came in and so did John F.
Kennedy, the first president to
make the scene since FDR came
here in 1939.
All things considered, 1961 was
a newsworthy twelvemonth for UN
C students. Here, the staff of the
Daily Tar Heel rates the top ten
news stories of the year:
1. On October 12 President Ken
nedy came to the university to
keep a campaign promise that he
made Governor Hodges before the
presidential election, and to accept
an honorary degree on the univer
sity's 168th birth.
In a speech that was not the
major foreign policy address that
was expected, Kennedy encourag
ed the intellectuals of the country
to use their resources for the
good of the country. Kennedy told
over 30.000 persons in Kenan Stad
ium, "Regardless of your field, I
urge you to recognize the contri
bution which you can make as
educated men and women to intel
lectual and political leadership in
these difficult days."
2) On October 6 two students
were found dead in their Cobb
Dorm beds. William Henry Harri
son Johnson, Jr., 24, a graduate
student ' from Statesville and
James Michael Barham, 21, a
junior from Burlington, were both
ruled victims of cyanide poison
ing. ,
. An intensive police investigation
accompanied by state-wide spec
ulation followed. Yesterday, after
months of investigation when the
headlines died down, a superior
Court solicitor, ruled a tentative
"murder-suicide."

Stories
3) For nearly six months bas
ketball . dominated the Tar Heel
headlines. On January 10 the
NCAA handed the UNC basket
ball team a one year probation
for "excessive entertainment of
prospective student athletes."
Then again on April 28, Lou
Brown, a former Carolina player,
was named as a co-conspirator in
attempts to bribe college basket
ball players.
From this many repercussions
developed that restricted big time
basketball in North Carolina. Rul
ings handed down from . the
trustees of the consolidated Uni
versity put an end to the tradi
tional Dixie Classic and has put a
strict limitation on out-of-state re
cruiting. Also connected with the basket
ball scandals was the over-ruling
of the Men's Honor Council by
Chancellor William B. Aycock.
4. On November 7 voters went
to the noils and voted down the
61.7 million bond issue that would
have greatly aided higher educa
tion in North Carolina.
5. On December 8 the Varsity
theater opened its doors to full
integration. Partial integration had
begun earlier in the fall at the
Carolina Theater and was followed
on Nov. 28 by the Varsity. Inte
gration of the theaters ended a
year of intermittent picketing by
the Citizens Committee for Open
Movies.
6. John Motley Morehead added
almost $7 million dollars to the
Morehead Scholarship Foundation
on September 20.
He brought his UNC benefactions
to a total of $7 million by dona
tion of 50,000 shares of Union Car
bide Corporation stock. '
7. Article 4 of the Interfraternity
Council By-Laws was deleted and
replaced by a new article to allow
deferred rush beginning in the
school year 1963-64.
The article called for deferment
of fraternity rushing 'until the
spring semester with, the dates of
rushing determined by the IFC.

Dynamic Reading
Demonstration Is
Slated Monday
A demonstration of reading Dy
namics by Greensboro residents
and also a film of U.S. Congress
men utilizing Reading Dynamics
will be held January 8, at 8 p.m.,
in the Home Building and Loan's
Community Room, 123 N. Columbia
St. according to Dabney White,
Area Manager of Evelyn Wood
Reading Dynamics Institutes for
the Carolinas.
The Monday night demonstrat
ors were students last fall at the
Reading Dynamics Institute in
Greensboro. The Institute teaches
a technique valuable to those who
do a great deal of reading for
research, study or for pure plea
sure. Meaning Patterns
This new method is designed to
train students to note patterns of
meaning on a page rather than
individual words. At the same time
it combats, backtracking and fixa
tion that are barriers to good
reading speeds.
"Speed is not most important,"
say instructors of reading Dy
namics, "but only through speed
can you get good understanding."
During 12 two and one half hour
sessions students are taught to
increase their reading speeds from
3 to 10 times. Beginning speeds
of these enrolled in the Greens
boro Institute last fall ranged from
160 to 600 words per minute. End
ing speeds were all over 1,000
words per minute and some ranged
as high as 3,000 per minute.
The price of this course is $150
for 12 weeks. This includes a
manual, 30 hours of class room
instruction and special counselling
if necessary.

Given To State
A plan aimed at hastening the
building of new dormitories at
state-supported colleges is expect
ed to be presented today to the
Advisory Budget Commission by
representatives of the State Board
of Higher Education.
James Wadsworth of the UNC
Housing Office said that he knew
of no plan to hasten construction of
Carolina's three new men's dormi:
tories and doubted that such a plan
would be feasible.
Officials pointed out that this
plan would have the effect of per
mitting colleges to proceed with
dormitory construction almost a
year sooner than if they waited for
the 1963 General Assembly to act.
The plan calls for a "gentle
men's agreement" under which the
Budget Commission would recom
mend to the General Assembly that
the state pay half the cost of the
buildings. The colleges would pay
the other half from dormitory rent
als. Only dormitories included in the
recently defeated bond issue would
be included in the proposal.
