He spon sored dances and concerts, and tolerated the guys and gals who worked on the various publications. He was what we call 'a good gay.' HUGH MORTON Every coed on the cam pus had an interest in this guy. They wanted him to take their picture for Tar 'n Feathers or the DTH. He's made some wonderful headlines of his own over the past twenty-five years. W 9 By Bob tick & Ivey Relates A Luckv Fate By PETE IVEY You 42-ers may think you're hale and hearty today, on your 25th anniversary. But you're nothing like the Man and the Woman you will be when you come back to Chapel Hill for your 50th an niversary in 2017. The Class of 1942 will roar back for the Golden Anniver sary, with vigor and potency that is shocking to think about. The reason: Scientific med ical advances will keep you alive and strong and likely to stay that way into infinity. Medical advances show that Organ Transplantation is in sight may be with us in a few years as a normal prac tice. Doctors will replace your heart, and liver and brains with almost the same facility a service station attendant will change your oil, or put in a new battery, or install a new transmission. Switching human organs, from a man of 20 to men of 45 or 50 or 80, may be routine by 1975 or 1980. If, for instance, you who are now in your middle 40's, feel your kidneys weaking at the age of 55, you can install new kidneys. If you get high blood pressure or heart . pal pitations in your 50's, just rip out the old and sew on the new. - -- Hardening of the arteries? How would you like the ar teries of a teen-ager? New glands? Why not go in for a general remodeling, once every ten years? It could be that in 2017, when you come back to Chap el Hill, you'll be an entirely new man and new woman. You may go by the same name, and your classmates won't recognize you; because you'll be entirely new from stem to stern. But you'll have the same Social Security Num ber, and Chapel Hill will be your alma mater. Organ Transplantation is only one of the innovations which is expected between 'now and the year 2,000. We can also anticipate Pop ulation Control brought on by The Pill In fact, the re juvenation by Transplantation and other chemical and bio logic advances will make it even more necessary to con trol population growth. By 1975 we will be far be yond the Moon, and it's with in the realm of possibility that by that time we'll have heard from Intelligent Beings on Distant Planets people who have worlds with civili zations far in advance of ours. If these people, who have lived several millions of years longer than we have on Earth, have learned many of the lessons that we ought to learn, perhaps they will communi cate to us some of their se crets of success. Such as: 1. How to get rid of war. 2. How to live with one another cooperatively. 3. How to achieve happiness. Plus many other things that we consider valuable for get ting along with one another. By the time you're back in 2017, our ways of life will be changed, even with the use of the scientific knowledge we will be able to discover for ourselves. For example, each person will be equipped with electronic computer (with tele phone and TV communica tions) for instant contact with other people. If you want to know something, dial a num ber at your fingertips. Ask the question. Your wireless com puter gets the information back from an immediately replying Ann Landers, Dear Abby, Emily Post, James B. Reston, or Walter Lippmann. This will be education, in stantly self-instruction and every man his own expert. No schools and colleges will be necessary. When you come back to Chapel Hill in 2017, it will be all yours, for fun and frolic. nl IT w? t?? These eager young people should look just about like you looked twenty-five years ago. They are some of the sons and daughtersof the class of 1942 who WeVe Reached Are Students And We 'The Old Grads9 Members of the class of 1942 must still have a pretty high regard for the Univer sity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. A total of 35 present day students are the sons or daughters of mem bers of the Class of 1942. Several answered our request to pose for the above picture. The total list includes Wil liam B. Bates, Jr., William It's Glenn Miller Time In Buddy DeFranco leading the Glenn Miller Orchestra makes a lot of sense. It also makes a lot of very wonderful and exciting dance music. This is a natural mating, for the music of DeFranco and the Miller Band have one very obvious common characteris tic: The clarinet. This wood wind instrument, more than any other, has supplied the dis tinctive reed section sound that has given the Miller mu sic much of its distinction. It is also the instrument which has brought DeFranco to mu sical prominence. For more than a decade, the tall, lean, handsome Philadel phian has been considered the number one man on his instrument, according to the votes of his fellow-musicians as polled year after year by Down Beat and Metronome magazines. His magnificent mastery of his instrument has resulted in starring appearan ces in New York's Carnegie Hall and in the Hollywood Then There By MAC NORWOOD Tucked quietly away in the mind of each of us is this very satisfying little thing about Chapel Hill. We have carried it around with us for twenty-five years now, and it has been one of the posses sions which differentiated us from our fellow men who were not so discriminating as to have sought their education in such a charming com munity. It is the spirit of re pose, the feeling that here in this town and on this cam pus is to be found surcease from the daily strife and ten sion which characterize life anywhere else. A short flight or drive can lift us to this hilltop where we can enjoy quiet isolation. We visualize ourselves sitting on the front porch of the Inn, endlessly rocking, speaking to old, old friends, watching bright young love amid the dogwood blos soms in the springtime and i TT . - .jilr-" . l -- .w-li nn L.

As we tire of rock ing, we drift down Cameron Avenue to sip the waters of the Well, perch on the steps of South building (between 10:30 and 11:00), have a coke at the Y, or lie down near the flagpole and gaze lovingly at South building on the north and Wilson library to the south. There is no need for the moment to think of the trou bles we have accumulated. We have many in common: Com munities which are divided about race relations, school bond issues, corruption in City Hall, highway construction and mass transportation. In addi tion to the earthshaking pro blems, there are the minor disasters such as our chil dren's poor motivation their troubles with mass education, their general rebellion the salary which is inadequate to Hi JK are now attending tne university, bee now many you can recognize or better still get the proud parents to let you know who they are. 1- A TK Ol ! .1 il ne ige jaiia Charles E.

In addition, DeFranco has learned firsthand all about the big bands their music, their musicians and their dancers and listeners for he served as a featured member of sev eral of the most illustrious of them before he received the call to front the Miller organ ization. When he was just a teenager, he joined the band of Johnny "Scat" Davis, and from there went with Gene Krupa, Ted Fio Rita, Charlie Barnet, Tommy Dorsey, Boyd Raeburn, and then back to Dorsey. According to the various well - known music ians with who he worked, he "scared us all to death with the mastery of his instrument!" Delightful Realization cover our responsibilities, the lack of vision of the men with whom and for whom we work, and so on. All these we can tolerate a little better than anyone else because wre pos sess a share of Chapel HBl. There is the very delightful realization that if the going gets too rough, we can throw it all up and move body and soul to Camelot. It is very important that we keep Chapel Hill like that. In order to do so, we must not look too closely at the place during this rare week end. Do not read the CHAP EL HILL WEEKLY. It is all right to buy one or two or three for Orville's sake, but do not read it. You might learn of the troubles that our local alumni share with us. You might learn of the trou bles with Texas Gulf Sulpher, of a failing bond referendum, of county commissioners who i r I ren Wharton. .In. the 'Anonymous' 1942 survey the question was asked: "On basis of your image of UNC today, would you send son or daughter to UNC?" By far the largest response was a simple "Yes" although fewer replied affir matively as to daughter than as to son. Prestige, Liberal education, outstanding, the greatest, its wide variety of opportunities, good academic atmosphere, general excel lence, alumni contacts, fam ily tradition, great spirit, fine faculty, progressive, high na tional standards. These were but a few of the words and phases used to show an af firmative view of the Uni versity. There were but in a mi norityexpressions of con cern and even criticism. "Too damned liberal," said one. "Too big" said others. "Too liberal and too large," said another. "The educational ad vantages are fine and the temptations are no greater at UNC than others," point out one. "Wish UNC were not coed," moaned another. "He or she could get a good edu cation and have fun at the same time," was one re sponse. "Two sons are at tending there now," wrote a convinced '42er, adding, "Greatest university in the South." And so it goes. There are about the same differences of opinion now that there was twenty-five years ago. simply do not understand, of traffic problems which com pare with those of Manhasset or Bethesda or Waukegan or Torrance. Do not read the NEWS AND OBSERVER and learn that most of the citizens of North Carolina seem determined to destroy as rapidly as possible their one really distinctive his torical achievement, this Uni versity. And above all. do not enter any of the buildings new or old on this delightful campus. Do not ask Lyle or Jimmy or Ike or Everett how it feels to have temporary custody of such a heavenly place. Do not approach the Hospital campus at all. Do not drive an automobile in the community, so that you won't have to try to park it. By all means, let us con tinue to keep our dream unblemished. The Prices Have Changed But The Place Is The Same Twenty-five years ago you could get a glass of beer for a dime, nickel in some places. Cigarettes, premium brands, were twelve cents a pack. You could eat a full-course dinner at Gooch's Cafe for something like a quarter. Down at Ma Burks' boarding house and over at Swain Hall the fare was even more economical. Thirty-five cents would get you into E. Carrington Smith's Carolina Theatre, or into the old Pick. One of the hottest (and most expensive) things in men's fashions was the "Finch- ley Foursome," jacket, Waist coat, trousers and mismatch ed slacks all for $40. Chapel Hill streets and side walks were crowded, it was hard to find space to angle park your car, and pedes trians even then were playing Franklin Street roulette. Jimmy Lunceford, the Dor sey's and Miller, among oth ers, were swinging in the old Tin Can, and the Arboretum was Carolina's version of Flir tation Walk. As they will, things have changed. Some things. Gooch's and Ma Burks' place have gone. So has the old Pick, and the Carolina Thea tre has moved across the street. Swain Hall, renovated and expanded, now houses the Uni versity's Department of Ra dio, Television and Motion Pictures. Indoor track meets are still held in the old Tin Can, but that's as close as anyone comes to dancing in there. The Arboretum is still there and students still pass through it, but usually in a hurry to get somewhere else. Where there used to be mar shy lowlands, there is now a shopping center (with an ABC store). What was a meadow 25 years ago is now the site of a sprawling housing devel opment. In the thickly wooded area of 25 years ago there now stands a complex of high-rise residence halls (dormitories). There are rows of brick apart ments for married students (that's right, married stu dents) in the wilds we used to explore on Botany field trips. Except for the traditional landmarks the Old Well, Davie Poplar, Old East and Old West, Silent Sam, South Building and the Y the face of the campus has undergone radical change. Some things are constant in Chapel Hill, of course. The streets and sidewalks are still crowded. Pedestrians still play Franklin Street roulette. And students still accuse Cha pel Hill merchants of goug ing them, just as we used to. The one thing, though, that seems to be totally impervious to change is what we used to call, and is still called, the Carolina Spirit. That indefinable chemistry (or whatever you would call it) that seems to work on everyone who comes here still exists, as surely as dogwoods bloom and dogs and squirrels roam the campus in spring. It is something that eman ates from the heart of this great University and leaves a permanent imprint on our lives. The buildings, the landscape and all else may change be yond recognition. But that sin gular spirit never will. Nor will it ever die. r V Our May Queen situation was in very good hands.
