By MAT FRIEDMAN High among the picturesque mountains and forests of the French Alps, a UNC husband wife team from the Department of Physics has been conducting a unique summer science pro gram. Drs. Bryce and Cecile DeWitt, who are a source of endless con fusion to physics department telephone operators answering calls for "Dr. DeWitt," have been gathering some of the world's top physicists and future physicists for the last 13 years at the "Les Houches Summer School," in France. Every summer since 1951, about 30 scientists have came from all over the world to study some of the top recent develop ments and problems in physics. They have been taught by some of the top people in the field; in fact, nine members of the sum mer school faculty have been Davidson President Hits Law Dr. D. Grier Martin, President of Davidson College, Wednes day took an indirect slap at the Speaker (Ban law, saying no speaker would be turned away at his school because of mem bership in a controversial or ganization. Martin emphasized that speak ers would be chosen on the "basis of their potential con tribution to the educational ex perience of Davidson College." Martin, who never mentioned the speaker ban law in his pre pared statement, said it was es sential for students at the pri vate Presbyterian institution to have the "opportunity to hear diverse viewpoints ex pressed by speakers invited to the campus by student organ izations as well as by mem bers of the faculty and admin instration." "It is highly desirable that students have the opportunity to question, review, and discuss the opinions of speakers represent ing a wide range of viewpoints," he said in his statement of policy. "No speaker will be rejected because of his membership in an organization." The Speaker Ban, which has been under heavy fire since its enactment by the General As sembly earlier this year, for bids known Communists or any one who has used the Fifth amendment to dodge questions relating to Communist activities from speaking on the campus of state-supported institutions. The board of trustees of the CUNC recently come out in op postion to the law and author ized the formation of a commit tee to seek its repeal. Martin said he would appoint a five-man committee includ ing two , faculty members, two students and one administration official to "assure that the schedule pf - speakers is - suffi ciently varied to provide the widest potesiMe education ex perience for Davidson students." "Whenever the committee de termines that a speaker is con troversial," he said, "it will be responsible for seeing that an alternative viewpoint is ade quately presented." Martin added it would be the committee's responsibility to in form the audience and public that the "appearance of a speak er at Davidson does not in any sense indicate advocacy or ap proval by the college of the ideas or 'the cause presented by the speaker." CCUN The campus committee of the Collegiate Council for the Unit ed Nations is accepting addi tional applications for students interested in participating in the U.N. Seminar in New York City, Nov. 27-Dec. 1 co-chairman Doug Tilden announced Thursday. Interviews will be held today and Monday from 3-5 p.m. at the CCUN office, 2nd floor Y Building. Applications can be obtained in the office. "Students with an interest in the United Nations and its pur pose in world affairs will find the Seminar interesting and edu cational," Tilden said. COMPULSORY MEETING There will be a compulsory meeting of the Elections Board today at 2 p.m. in Graham Mem orial. Ballot counters are also needed at that time. Nobel Prize winners. "Seven of them," says Mrs. DeWitt in her French accent, "won the Prize AFTER teaching at Les Houches. In other words, we invited these scientists to speak before they became inter nationally known." E. P. Wigner of Princeton Uni versity, who was named a Nobel Prize winner this week and who recently spoke in Chapel Hill at the Eastern Theoretical Physics Conference, was a professor at the school in 1956. Another No bel Prize winner, J. H. Jensen of Germany, taught there in 1953. "But don't get the impression," says Mr. DeWitt, who gives all credit for the program to his wif; "that they won Nobel Prizes BECAUSE they taught at Les Houches. Seriously, though, we are very proud of our selections for the School's faculty." Mr. and Mrs. DeWitt, who have cientists Criticize llTv b-eor 5- trong i i Gov. Candidate By FRED SEELY GREENSBORO State Senator Charles Strong of Greensboro is a definite candidate for the Re publican gubernatorial nomina tion, the Daily Tar Heel learned yesterday. A highly reliable source, who asked that he not be identified, said that Strong is "definitely in the race, and will make this in tention known around Dec. 1." Strong, a minister of the First Christian Church here, will re sign from the pulpit and enter the insurance business. He announced earlier he prob ably would announce his political plans about Dec. 1. S. A. Neal, chairman of the board of dea cons of the church, said it was probable no action to dismiss or replace Strong would be taken prior to Dec. 1. Iiochy First To Enter Presidential Race NASHUA, N.

Rockefeller announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Presi dent Thursday with a handshak ing swing in New Hampshire to win votes in the state's first-in-the-nation presidential primary. The 55 - year - old Rockefeller, first avowed 1964 presidential contender, coupled his long-ex State GOP Leaders Back Barry RALEIGH (UPD North Car olina Republican leaders stood squarely behind Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., today de spite a formal announcement by New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller that he will seek the GOP presidential nomina tion. "I think Goldwater 's chanc es nationally are very good and he certainly will carry North Carolina," predicted J. E. Broy hill of Lenoir, Republican Na tional Committee from Lenoir. "Rockefeller is too near in line with the Kennedy setup. Controls Relaxed In Saigon SAIGON, South Viet Nam (UPI) South Viet Nam's ruling mili tary junta Thursday relaxed con trols imposed on Saigon during the coup that overthrew the Ngo Dinh Diem regime. The junta sent most of its troops back to the war against the Communist Viet Cong guerrillas. Military junta security minister Maj. Gen.

"The program is limited to 35 students," says Mrs. DeWitt. About one-half are from France and the rest from all over the world. Edward Remler, a re search associate at UNC, attend ed last summer. Most of our students are under 35 and are very bright youn people. Many have become ouite well-known after attending the school." "I think," adds Mrs. DeWM.

"Our purpose in starting the School was to put some life into ge s Definite a. I i I I An application filed by Strong Oct. 23 asks that he be granted a license to enter the insurance business. An official said Strong's application has been approved and that he can take the state insurance examination between now and late January. Strong has received an offer to join the firm of .Freeman and Co., which handles commercial and personal insurance. The firm's president, Joseph F. Free man Jr., said Strong would serve in an executive capacity. Strong started one of the ma jor controversies of the 1963 Gen eral Assembly when he intro duced a bill calling for the abolition of Alcohol Beverage Stores in his home county of Guilford. The bill was easily defeated. WORLD NEWS pected announcement with a challenge to Republican Sen. Bar ry Goldwater of Arizona to op pose him in state primaries. He also unleashed an attack on President Kennedy. Rockefeller acknowledged and most Republican leaders agree that he was the underdog for the GOP nomination against Gold water, who has not yet declared himself a candidate. They come from the same back ground," he continued. "If we give the voters Rockefeller ver sus Kennedy, they won't have i much of a choice." J. Herman Saxon of Char lotte, state GOP chairman, agreed that Goldwater "has the inside track" and conceded that "the Rockefeller announcement came as no great surprise." Both Broyiill and Saxon - agreed that the main issue in volved in the battle for the GOP presidential nomination cen tered on liberalism versus con servatism. The coup-imposed curfew and press censorship were ended to day. VETERANS DAY Air Force and Navy ROTC units will participate in a For mal Retreat on Veterans Day, November 11th at 4:15 p.m. This ceremony will be held at the University Flag Pole in front of South Building on the University Campus. The public is invited to attend. French Physics after the Second World War. I think it has been quite successful." The program, which lasts eight weeks, examines a different broad physical problem each summer. Geophysics, which in volves a great deal of inquiry about satellite problems is just cne example. The students at tend three classes a day on some phase of the problem, making it very intensive. But the stim ultation of having heard some of the top scientists in the world has probably been instrumental in encouraging the students to continue in their scientific work. "Fermi gave his last lecture there." reminisces Mrs. DeWitt. "During the summer, he com plained of not feeling well. We did not think at the time that it was anything serious, but doc tors soon discovered that he had cancer. Shortly after that, Fer mi died." Findin George Returns The Favor By SAM SAMSOT UNC Professor Emeritus W. C. George shrugged off an attack by the American Association for the Advancement of Science yes terday as "a rather fatuous state ment." The association singled out Dr. George's racial study, which he conducted for the State of Ala bama, as one of two whose find ings are not supported by scienti fic evidence. George's study con cluded that the Negro race was inferior to the white race. The other study, "Race and Reason A Yankee View," was written by Carleton Putnam, a former airline executive who is now a biographer. The Putnam report contains an introduction by four scientists arguing that there was "inescapable scientific validity" to the statement. The asociation's, "Science and The Race Problem," criticized re cent attempts to justify the politi cal and social inequality of Ne groes on scientific grounds. It suggested that such attempts rep resented an improper use of scien tific knowledge. The association said, "the avail able evidence on the measurable difference among racial groups cannot properly support a chal lenge to the principle of human equality. The use of purported 'scientific evdience' to justify non-compliance with the Constitu tion debases both science and the human conscience." Dr. George said the association was attacking his theory with no scientific evidence. He noted that the authors of the report said that it was very difficult to atack his study, "The Biology of the Race Problem," on a scientific basis. The controversial anatomy specialist said he though "it would be very proper for them (the Association) to find any flaws on the basis of scientific data, but not merely on the basis of dec laration with no evidence." Dr. George said the associa tion's objective was "to down grade my study. They hoped to atack it on a scientific basis, but couldn't." He said the association has "taken up a national crusade," and should recognize "they're crusaders and not scientists in this statement." He suggested that the associa tion has "gone into politics rather heavily," as evidenced by state ments in a great number of pa pers. He said the Washington Post chose to disregard the associa tion's difficulty in attacking the study but that the Greensboro paper had noted it, even though it was an integration-sympathetic paper, "Like the Daily Tar Heel." IN THE WHITE HOUSE A UNC alumnus has three books in the recently-selected White House Library. W. Clement Eaton, professor of history at the University of Kentucky and president of The Southern Historical Associa tion, received B.A. and M.A. de grees at UNC in 1919 and 1920, respectively. The books by Prof.Eaton which are in the White House Library are: "Freedom of Thought in the Old South"; "A History of the Old South"; and "A History of the Southern Confederacy." PASS DEFENSE North Carolina's pass defense slipped to a number two national ranking this week, NCAA Bureau statistics revealed yesterday. The Tar Heels, who led the country in the pass defense department last week with a mark of 45.2 yards a game, are now second behind Ohio University. Coach Jim Ilickey's club gave up 38 yards through the air to Georgia's Larry Rakestraw last week and are now at a 47 even average. The Bobcats of Ohio U., though losing to Xavier by 204), took over the top position at 43.4. Texas Western is third at 48.3.
