S. suggestion that it is will ing to invite Communist Chi nese scientists and scholars to visit American universities. It called the American offer "nothing but a fraud." Peking's New China News Agency said the Chinese re jection of President Johnson's efforts to open contacts be tween the United States and Communist China was made by a spokesman of the Chinese foreign ministry. "It is obvious," the spokes man said, that the U. S. aim "is to deceive the American people and world opinion and exploit the American people's friendly sentiments for Chi na in the interest of its policy of hostility towards China."

Negro dairv farmer .Iam Snipes of Bingham TownshiD is among nine other candi dates for the three seats on the County Board of Commis sioners. It has been predicted by on lookers that if the 400 unreg istered Negro voters in the county register and vote Snipes will have an excellent chance to win. Matthews said, though, that the registration drive is not solely intended to help Snipes get elected, but is simply to register Negroes in Orange County. He explained that many SDS members are involved in the registration drive because they represent "SDS's concern for the individual's active partic ipation in politics." Prof Probation From Flunking Rumors False There has been a rumor around UNC for some years that professors who consistent 'y flunk a high percentage of their students are in some way censured by their department heads or other university of ficials. According to Dr. Wayne Da nielson, Dean of the School of Journalism, no such censro ship exists. The rumor, developed in the classroom, stems from the fact that some professors have failed as many as half their students. Danielson said that "it com es very close to questioning a man's integrity to question the grades he's giving.' He said, "The grading rela tionship between students and teachers is a very delicate one," adding that 'this is something I don't think is very wise to interfere with." .Danielson stresses that he or See Probation On Page 6 Find Light 1 v- k' five astronauts who studied star recognition at the Morehead Planetarium here.

DTH staff er Ernest Robl, the only re porter to cover their appear ances here, sums up some of his impressions of the group. By ERNEST ROBL DTH Staff Writer At first look, one could al most have mistaken them for a group of professors and graduate students. But that would have been only the first impression. Af ter a few seconds one would recognize that there is some thing different about the five men who visited the campus this week even if they weren't wearing their bright blue NASA flight suits at the time. It wasn't anything tangible. Even if they were sitting still, the five astroanuts who visit ed the campus this week seem ed to be in constant motion. Working on star recognition training at the Morehead Plan etarium, they moved through the campus like a whirlwing, and barely half an hour after classes. Except for the trophy pres entation at which Campus Police Chief Arthur Beaumont will speak on fraternities the only thing left in Greek Week is a pledge-faculty tea at the Wesleyan Foundation at 4 p.m. Monday. Cigarette Smuggling Discussed Gov. Dan K. Moore has pledged cooperation ' with oth er states in their attempt to stop the interstate smuggling of cigarettes.

Every minute of their time seemed to be allocated to a specific task. Even while they were taking a break from their sessions, they talked shop. Immediately after arriving on campus Thursday after noon, four of them headed for Woollen Gym and a handball workout. Virgil I. (Gus) Grisom, who headed the five-man group, lat er explained that this game had been selected because it provided good eye-hand coor dination training. But even though the astro nauts were always business like, they also had time for a few laughs like the time astronaut James McDiwitt gave his version of a space suit fitting. The astronauts had just ar rived at the planetarium Thurs day afternoon and were sit ting around a small workshop, munching cookies, when one member of the group asked about the suit fitting. McDivitt put down his cook ie, assumed a bow-legged See ASTRONAUTS On Page 6 1966 Man-Myth Session Opens Here Today By LYTT STAMPS DTH staff Writer John Kenneth Galbraith, au thor of The Affluent Society, will keynote this year's Caro lina Symposium tonight in Me morial Hall. In line with the Symposium topic "Man, Mind and Myth," he will speak on "Myth and Modern Man." The Paul M. Warburg Pro fessor of Economics at Har vard University served as Am bassador to India from the spring of 1961 to mid-1963. On his departure, the late Prime Minister Nehru took the unus ual step of publicly thanking Galbraith for his help and counsel. Nine other speakers will be here for the Symposium. The Very Rev. Alan Rich ardson, Dean of York Cathe dral, will come from Lanca shire, England, to speak on ABC Waiting Game "We find no authority in ei ther the Turlington Act or the ABC Act of 1937 which would permit the possession of al coholic beverages in liquor clubs, locker clubs or any place, within a - wet territory other than one's dwelling . . ." Ray Brady, State ABC Director By BILL AMLONG DTH Staff Writer In Charlotte, they are play ing a waiting game with the state attorney general. Local ABC officials there have decided to hold off on enforcing the new, no-brown bagging interpretation of the state liquor laws until the Gen Jubilee: A Young Carolina Tradition With Rocky Past By DAVID KNESEL Special To The DTH First In A Series In less than two weeks Gra ham Memorial will sponsor Jubilee number four. So what? Even in its youth, Jubilee Weekend has become a deep seated Carolina tradition. But a look at the history of this campus - wide event is any thing but traditional. The idea came about from a need for a big weekend some time during the year. Plan ning began in 1962 by the Gra ham Memorial Activities Board. Bob Reardon, then GMAB President said, "The idea behind the project is to schedule two performances of the regular G.M. Series back-to-back in order to make it a special weekend." The inspiration for open air concerts came form a 1962 IFC sponsored jazz concert in front of G.M. Reardon said, "We like the idea of having everything in the open so that everyone can attend. We are hoping that people will mill around from one party to an other and from one activity to another." The name? That just bobbed up at a GMAB meeting. That was in 1963. The Jubi lee brochures, prepared by Bill Campbell, called it "A Sa lute to Spring." The cover fea tured red and orange "birds and bees." Jubilee was to be held in front of Graham Me morial, on the grass. It would run three days from April 26 to April 28. The cast in cluded: The Four Preps, Fri day Night; The Migrants, The Duke Ambassadors, The Har lequins, and the Men's Glee Club, Saturday Afternoon; Five Combo Parties in five locations, Saturday night; and The Chad Mitchell Trio Sunday afternoon. "Myth in Religion and the! Secular."' He has visited and lectured on all five continents of the world. Dr. Daniel J. Boorstein, who is attempting to uncover the special character of American culture in the triology, The Americans, will speak on "Myth and the Historical Proc ess." He believes historians can help people understand each other by leading them to recognize the distinction among each other's experiences. "Mind and Myth" will be Walter Kaufmann's topic. The professor at Princeton is known for his book The Faith of a Heretic. He has written, edit ed or translated a number of other works, most of them dealing with religion and phi losophy. Novelist and short story writer Nelson Algren will speak on "Myth and Mores." eral , Assembly has a chance to change them next spring. They announced Thursday that they would wait until March 31, 1967, to begin en forcing the ruling that it's ille gal to consume liquor outside one's home. In other parts of the state, however, the March 31 ruling of the attorney general will be enforced. This includes Chapel Hill. Ray Brady, state director of the ABC, sent a memorandum to officers around the state, directing time to enforce the new interpretation. ". . . We believe that one (Continued on Page 5) Friday's DTH read: "It starts today. Under the trees on the lawn near G.M. we will be serenaded from 2-5 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday. "And that's only part of it. Top flight entertainment, free for all students of the Uni versity is something long need ed on this campus and now its here. "We await the start of Ju bilee this afternoon with Ju bilation." There was jubilation, all right. There were also heck lers, drunks, and a fight or two. Not to mention "over amorousness." Three dump truck loads of debris were hauled away from McCorkle place the next morning. The DTH editorialized: 'This is no way to thank those who've worked so hard to make Ju bilee a success. And it's def initely not the way to make sure Jubilee becomes an an nual feature at Carolina." That afternoon, a more so ber crowd watched the lawn concert until five. Then, from nine until one, five combos in every corner of campus blast ed out. G.M., Y-Court and Ackland, Steele Hall lot and the Planetarium. There were movies, too. Butterfield 8, Two Women, and The Buccaneer. The next Tar Heel headlin ed: "Jubilee Success May Spur Repeat Show Next Year." The text quoted How ard Henry, Director of G.M. "As a whole, attendance was very good. We naturally don't expect to appeal to everyone, but we're quite pleased at the response we got." Henry estimated the attend ance at Friday's Four Preps concert at 4,500 to 5 XX), and the other concerts at 2,000 -2,500. For the next year, Hen ry said, "That is a GMAB de cision, but there is almost no question in my mind that we will go ahead with plans. In fact, I'd bet on it" Founded February 23, 1893 His best seller. The Man With the Golden Arm, received the National Book Award for the most distinguished American Novel in 1949. Congressman Morris K. Udall will discuss "Myth and Poli tics." The Democrat is a strong believer in the two party sys tem even though he opposes forces which limit Congres sional legislative action. The creator of Li'l abner will speak on "Myth and the Myth ical American". Al Capp has created in Li'l Abner a twen tieth century folk tale. The comic strip is one of the top five in the nation. A recent feature of the strip is a group called Students Wildly Indig nent about Everything (S.W.I.NE.). The author of the recent best seller Kandy Kolored Tangerine-Flake Streamlined Baby, Tom Wolfe, speaks on "Myth and the American Dream." The collection of articles has help ed to establish Wolfe as one tf the most talked-about and sought-after writers today. C. Vann Woodward and Ralph Ellison will compose a panel to discuss "Myth and the South." Woodard, who received his Ph.D. here in 1937, has been a professor of history at Yale since 1961.

Ellison's first novel, The In visible Man, has been publish ed in nine languages and re ceived the National Book Award for Fiction and the Russwurm in 1953 and the Na tional Newspaper Publishers Award in 1954. The weekend, indeed, was on its way to a repeat per formance. The Student Legis J lature reflected campus - wide I approval. "Legislature ap plauds G.M. for Jubilee," read a story by Fred Seely. Letters to the editor agreed. One writer, S. Weldon Brown, offered a suggestion: "It seems advisable in the future that a successful all - campus weekend have at least one night with late permission for women students." Graham Memorial had been given a mandate. It began to plan for the next year's "Sa lute to Spring."
