Presiding over a series of speeches which became progressively more illiterate as the night passed was North Carolina's Grand Dragon, Mr. Bob Jones. The following interview is a compilation of remarks made by Mr. Jones that evening and those made by him during a telephoned Tar Heel Interview: What religion are you affiliated with? I was raised a Lutheran, but when the Lutheran Church joined up with the National Council of Churches a few years back, I left it to become a Baptist. Everyone knows that the National Council of Churches is a Communist infested organization. What about the Catholics and the Jews? "Well, the Catholics believe in the Virgin Birth and the Jews don't even believe in that. The Jews are unbelievers, and my Bible tells , me not to yoke myself with unbelievers. The Jews have abdicated integration more than any other race. They are the most segregated people in the United States." You referred to education in your speech as the process of "putting a mess" in people's heads. Do you hold to that definition: "No, Ma'am, I don't. Education is a form of learning. What about Chapel Hill? "Chapel Hill's a right good place for learning I guess. More than 90 of the students are there to get an education; the other half are there -because their parents didn't want them at home." Would you send your daughter here? "No, ma'am, I wouldn't. She's going to enroll at Bob Jones University in South Carolina." Why not here? "There are too many people from out of state. And too many CLASSIFIED ADS GET RESULTS WANTED female roommate to share apartment at Northamp ton Terrace beginning August 1st. Phone: Day -929-2109; Night -967-1393.

I do wish, however, that they'd invest in a few Palmolive products. Most of the flower children look wilted to me. "Alot of hippies are white niggers. They lead dirty, filthy low lives. God looks down in disgust at them. "Many hippies, male and female, share the same apartment, share the same rooms, and even sleep in the same beds. I wouldn't want to mongrelize with any of them." Who are you backing for President? "1 say to hell with LBJ, to hell with Congress, and up with the klan. I'm against draft-card burning Gene McCarthy. McCarthy is a liberal; a liberal is a Pink, too yellow to be Red. "As far as Hubert Humphrey is concerned, he ain't been that for long. "Ain't nothing and he ain't been that for long. And Nixon's a two-time loser. That's who I ain't for. I am for the patriot George Wallace." Why? "First of all, his chances are excellent. And beyond that, Wallace, will return states rights to the people. There's too much power in the federal government What do you think about Martin Luther King's asassination? "Well, I didn't know you could assassinate Negroes. I thought you could only kill them. For my opinion about King, I recommend our brochure entitled "The Ugly Truth About Martin Luther King." In there it states the -power-crazy Negro leader's long history as a tool of the communist party." Has support for the Klan fallen off in the past few years? "It certainly has not. When we passed around the cup for contrbutions on Friday night, we made $40.06." You seem to regard the Bible in terms of a treatise lobbying for segregation. Is that true? "God is the author of segregation, and as of yet God hasn't made a mistake. We find in the first verse of the first book of the Bible, Genesis, that God separated the Heavens from the earth. And in verse four it reads: "And God separated the light from the darkness." Do you consider yourself prejudiced? "I ain't prejudiced. I just don't associate myself with Negroes. I won't be forced into associating with anybody. I got no malice, no ill-will in my heart."
