GOETTINGEN Gocttingcn Scholarship applica Where By Chuck Mooney Where did Chapel Hill get its name? From the Episcopal Church the Chapel of the Cross according to Dr. Archibald Henderson. "Before the American Revolu tion there was a chapel connected with the Church of England, in St. Matthew's Parrish, Orange County," he said. It stood beside the road that ran from Petersboro, Va., to Pitts boro, about where the Carolina Inn is today. It was called New Hope Chapel and the hill it stood on was called New Hope Chapel Hill. When the village was laid out in 1793, it was called Chapel Hill. Church Was Pioneer The Episcopal Church was one of the pioneer forces in North Ca rolina, according to Dr. Kemp P. Battle in his "History of the Uni versity of North Carolina." James Hogg, a Scots Episcopalian who dealt in real estate, was one cf the commissioners who decided on UNC's location. He is chieily re sponsible for the choice of Chapel Hiii, Dr. Henderson said. The first parson of St. Matthew's Parrish was Rev. George Micklc jchn born in Scotland, a graduate of Cambridge and a chaplain un der Frederick the Great. He came to Orange County in 1767 and soon got mixed ur in pre-revolution politics and the Rev olution itself.

A. Branch said yesterday. "'The University is not in the transportaation business," Branch said when asked about a proposed shuttlebus plan. It was the student's responsibility, he said, to provide transportation. " . Branch pointed out that students housed in Spencer Dorm had to walk nearly as far to the library as those who will live in either Craig or Ehringhaus. "Those stu dents who live off campus because there is not enough space are not provided transportation by the Uni- Waming Macle ' On Latin Aid WASHINGTON (UPI) Te cdore Moscose, President Ken nedy's Latin, American aid chief, warned Thursday that delay in im plementing the Alliance for Pro gress could lose initiative to ex tremists of the left and the right. .

"Why, sir," Person told Mickle john, "there is enough evidence among my papers to hang me a dozen times." Person secretly borrowed a horse and rode to his home and back 60 miles at night. When Gov. Try on couldn't find any evidence, he asked Rev. Micklejohn if Person had .gone anywhere the night be fore. "I supped and breakfasted with him," the Reverend said. Tory Exile Rev. Micklejohn himself was captured by the Colonial forces at Moore's Creek and convicted as a Tory by the Halifax Congress in 1776. He spent the Revolutionary I War exiled from Orange County near Albemarle. After his parole at the War's end, he returned to Orange County and injected his adventurous per sonality into church work. Parson Micklejohn recruited par ishoncrs wherever he could. "Why don't you come hear me preach?" he asked a. farmer. "Well, sir," the farmer replied, . ... "I work so hard all week that J like to rest on Sunday." "You ought to come to church. I'll give you a drink of whiskey if you'll come tomorrow," the Parson urged, getting out his personal bottle.

Wheless said that while a bus system would be very expensive it was not beyond the realm of pos sibility. "Another solution might be car pools," Wheless continued (Branch thought of an even more novel solution walking. Those in the infirmary yesterday included: Mary Polk, Dorothy Haves. Jane Haver.

Name gested for first President of UNC. He died in Virginia in 1818 more than 100 years old. Reorganization in 1824 After its lively beginning St. Matthew's Parrish declined until Rev. William Mercer Green re organized it in 1824. Under his guidance, the present church was built in 1848. The East wing was added in 1925. It is located on East Franklin Street beside the Planetarium park ing lot. Thomas U. Walter, a Philadelphia church builder, de signed the Gothic building. The older part next to the parking lot is made of bricks fashioned in Chapel Hill in a kilm specially built by Rev. Green. One of the first pipe organs in North Carolina was given to the Chapel by Miss Mary R. Smith in 1880. It is still working in the present church. Present Activities Today the Church is active in campus life, sponsoring the Canter bury Club, discussion groups in contemporary subjects, a study group on Aspects of the Christian Faith and conferences with other Episcopalian students. . During Exams it providecj study rooms and coffee to students. A student library of both texts and fiction books is being built up.

Cuban Charge Is Rejected UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (UPI) The General Assembly's main political committee Thursday ef fectively rejected Cuba's- charge that the United States is planning aggression against Fidel Castro's government. With only the 10-nation Soviet bloc supporting Cuba, the 104-na-tion committee rejected, 50-11 with 39 abstentions, a Communist reso lution calling on the United States to end "interference" in Cuba. Czechoslovakia and Romania, was the only measure before the com mittee. With resolution offered di rectly supporting ' Cuba's charge, the rejection of the measure was tantamount to outright dismissal of the complaint. Correction UP Chairman Bill . Criswell said yesterday that the announcement of the party's convention proce dures was incorrect and should have read: Each dorm, fraternity, or sorority having a minimum of five UP members would be allow ed a five-member delegation with each member possessing a vote. For every 10 additional UP mem bers the institution would be al loted an extra delegate. The story printed Tuesday con cerning parking tickets and the town traffic budget is incorrect. The income from the traffic tick ets goes into the general fund of the town of Chapel Hill and not into the police or traffic budget. The police budget is separate from the general budget of Chapel Hill and consequently the figure of Va of the police budget was incorrect. Miss Ramazanoglu MARCH in Two Honoraries Are Selected Nine undergraduate women and two honorory members were tapped into Carolina's highest honorary organization for women, the Order of the Valkyries, in a secret predawn ceremony Friday morning. Recognized were Miss Betty Doyle Challen, Memphis, Tennessee; Miss Judith G. Clark, Tuscumbia, Alabama; Miss Mary Jacquelyn Day, Lau rens, South Carolina; Miss Eliza beth Suzan Hayes, Chapel Hill; Miss Jean Elizabeth MacDougall, Akron, Ohio; Miss Catherine Anne Mixon, Memphis, Tennessee; Miss Pamela Ann Parker, Sylvania, Georgia; Miss Fatma Ramazanog lu, Istanbul, Turkey; Miss Eliza beth Ann Reed, Poland, Ohio; Miss Jessie C. Rehder, Chapel Hill ;and Mrs. Mary Gutherie, Chapel Hill. The Valkyries .began their candle light march at 11:29 a.m. in their customary black robes and hoods. As the march proceeded through the women's residence halls, the sound of the golden gong called forth those women who were rec ognized for the Valkyrie ideals of scholarship, leadership, character, and service. Outstanding Women The Order of the Valkyries was begun on the Carolina campus in 1942, so that outstanding women students might be given special recognition for their services. The name of the organization is taken from an ancient Norwegian legend centered around the warrior god Odin, who represents thought and memory and who was mankind's benefactor. Odin had nine select maiden at tendants, the Valkyries, who were daughters of the gods and yet were mortals as well. The chief task of these maidens was to go to the battlefield and decide at Odin's bidding who should win and who should die and then carry the brave dead to Valhalla, the hall of fame. It was considered a great honor to belong to this chosen group because they shared the . glorious companionship of de parted heroes. .. .
