If Wtt Offices in Graham Memorial CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 27, 1963 United Press International Service Tar Heel Rams Into Capitol WASHINGTON (UP I) A North Caroilnian created alarm and consternation at the White House Thursday by crashing his truck through a street gate and nearly reaching the famed north portico entrance to the executive mansion. "I want to see the President. The Communists are taking over in North Carolina," the driver, Doyle Allen Hicks, screamed as he was taken into custody by White House guards and secret service agents. Hicks, 38, of Waynesville, was later taken to D. C. General Hos pital for observation. Police said he was unarmed but the small pickup truck was reported to have it sped through the gate and up narrowly missed a bystander as the driveway to the pillared north portico. , President Kennedy was absent from the White House on his trip to the West but Mrs. Kennedy was on the ground floor of the mansion. Caroline was attending a first grade class in the White House at the time, presumably in the upstairs living quarters. John Jr. was out for a ride, a White House source reported. As Hicks was carried struggl ing to a patrol wagon, he kept shouting he wanted to see the President. He kept protesting to the police and secret service men. "I tell you, boys, you'd better get down to North Carolina. I tell you, you'd better get down there and see what's going on, they're kill ing people like flies." His abortive effort to break into the heavily guarded White House occurred about noon when lunch time pedestrian traffic was heavy on the Pennsylvania Avenue side of the President's home. The two picket-type iron gates at the northwest entry were clos ed but not locked. The gate is us ed mainly by newsmen and White House personnel. There is a man ned guard house within 10 feet of it and a driveway curves up to the north portico. An eyewitness said Hicks, driv ing a truck belonging to the Hicks Heating & Plumbing Co. of Way nesville "came barreling right through, over the sidewalk and through the gates." Two startled guards at the gate set out in pursuit as the truck sped up the driveway. Another on duty at the north portico rushed down a brief flight of steps to the driveway. Just short of the entry, Hickes brough his truck to a screeching halt and jumped out "screaming and yelling that he wanted to see the President of the United States." The three guards quickly seized him and turned him over to se cret service agents who appeared immediately on the scene. A welfare official in Waynes- ville said Hicks, the father of five children, was released from the Broughton State Mental Hospital at Morganton, N. C, last March. He voluntarily committed himself to the institution in November, 1 1962.

"But we don't try to tell them which sorority to join. This is up to them." There are 15 new Stray Greeks this year, bringing the total to 35. WORLD NEWS BRIEFS Clues In Birmingham An FBI spokesman refused com ment on the worth of the evidence until "the lab looks it over." The shrapnel bomb exploded early Wednesday morning, just -3 minutes after another dynamite blast was set off a few feet away. Police said the first explo sion apparently was intended as a decoy to lure Negroes into the streets, and the shrapel bomb was "made to kill."

The 65,000-word Denning report gave the Macmillan government a clean bill as regards security in the Profumo scandal. But it said he and his top ministers failed in their duty to find out in time that War Minister John Pro fumo was lying when he said he was not having an affair with call girl Christine Keeler. The Denning report also noted some "errors" by police and in vestigating departments and ap parent short circuits as regards getting information to the right quarters.

Moody lashed out at those who say University of North Carolina officials should have full power to run the university without rules and guides enacted by lawmakers. Moody was ad dressing the Dunn Rotary Club. He said many persons use the term "academic freedom" as "a sort of blanket or catch-all in justification of their position and as a method of attack upon any governmental requirement or command they oppose or which interferes with their naive or distorted conceptions of free dom." Declaring that UNC is merely a political agent and instrument of the state subject to legislative control, as held by the state Su preme Court as far back as 1352 Moody declared "The servant is not greater than the master. There's nothing unusual about that." Says Argument Absurd He said the false argument that UNC officials should be given full and final authority with no direction or control from the duly-elected law-making rep resntatives of the people was "absurd. .. . He criticized Consolidated Uni versity President William Fri day and other university leaders for failure to enforce statutes enacted in 1941 and 1947 prohib iting speeches by Communists. "Apparently," he charged, "they paid no attention to these statutes for it is a matter of common knowledge that Hall, Rosen and other hard-core Com munists have visited the campus and spoken there." Assailing editors who accused him of writing an opinion sup porting the views of the attorney general, Moody asserted, "I don't operate that way. I favor the ban, but the research was based on cold facts and statistics." Noting that New York State had ordered its regents to rid its colleges of Communists within and bar those from outside, he said New York's supreme court had held the law valid.
