"During the year, the turn-over is often 100 because of student vacations and job changing. Therefore we hire more students than we need while they are available and the number filters down.

Oligosaccharide Unit Not Our Department The Business Manager of The Daily Tar Heel received a request from Tokyo Women's Medical College Monday. It read: "I would greatly appreciate receiving a reprint of your article entitled 'The Anitgenicity of the Oligosaccharide Units of a Soluble Glycoprotein ..." Not remembering the date of, or staffwriter responsible for, that slashing expose of the Tar Heel's, the Business Manager flipped over the card for the address. It read: Dr. J.R. Clamp, University of Bristol, Bristol, England, Great Britain. The card bore a Japanese postmark. After seriously considering an expose of the U.S. Post Office Department, we decided to forward the card to Dr. Clamp apologizing for American intervention in British Affairs. until all of our funds are ovhanctpH and being forced V financially to dismiss all the ctndpnts in this department. "It is unfortunate that this situation has come up," said Ashby Fristoe, Chief of Technical Processing. "But under the circumstances there is nothing else to do but cut back now." The cut back will go into effect on Monday, November 4. All students except those in the standard catalog division will be cut back 50 of then working hours. Those in standard catalog will be cut 20 because of the immediacy and amount of work in that division. Fristoe said that priority for jobs in other divisions of the library will go to those students whose hours were cut. "We do not want to impose any financial hardships on these students," he said. "A new cataloging division will be opening soon and we hope to increase the hours of some of these students. Perhaps if some of the students find other jobs, we will be able to increase the hours of some of those who remain. The students on the Work-Study program reported thev went bv the Student Aid Office and did not fmd any immediate job possibilities. "WTe need regular hours, not baby-sitting on Saturday afternoons," one student said. "I cannot take out a loan; I am already up to my ears in debts. It's going to be a struggle to make it through this year." Students Biock Sneaker Students at the University of Mississippi blocked a Mississippi State Board of Trustees speaker ban with a federal court restraining order in their bid to have civil rights leader Charles Evers fulfill an October 2 speaking engagement. Evers, the brother of the slain civil rights leader Medgar Evers, NAACP state field director, and a Democratic National Committeeman from Mississippi was invited to speak on the Ole Miss campus by the university's Young Democrats and Students for Humphrey-Muskie chapters. Faced with a trustee decision to withdraw the student's invitation to Evers, David Melpus and Danny Culpit, officials of the Young Democrats, obtained the temporary restraining order We also wrote the Tokyo Women's Medical College apologizing that we were temporarily out of the 'Anitgenicity' article, but would send, upon request, a copy of Wayne Hurder's editorial on mayonnaise content in University sandwiches.

His choice nTvaT ?mstry was somewhat fllogical as he himself admits.

Society, he warned, still worshipped Dagon. It was evident from man's liWliieu. mcessant, unreasoning sexual the fault in manlrinrt without knowing why, to go, without knowing where." lut Peter Leland, we find out, is a man driven by his subconscious the classical, Freudian subconscious. He is obsessed by phallic symbols and sexual fantasies. He is a sadist and a masochist. Moreover, his whole life is apparently governed by a death wish that agonizingly, yet inevitably, expresses itself in his own conception and later acceptance of Dagon. Leland recalls that the mysterious death of his father (his mother had refused to discuss it with him) had led him in adolescence to numerous dark fantasies, such as the possibility of a dreadful, incurable disease which he may have inherited. "And even when his adolescence was gratefully behind him he had never lost completely a vague conviction that his davs were j1"111, that a deep bitter end awaited him at some random iuncture of his life. This notion accounted in part for his mordant vii ui nuiiu, uui it was mainiy a symptom: nis wnoie nature was self-minatory." The "random juncture" comes with the inheritance of the family home in the mountains of North Carolina which he accepts not only as a money saving device but also as a place to carry out his intellectual pursuits. In a book filled with symbols, it would seem fair to let the house represent Leland's psyche dark and cavernous, filled with dark corners and from Federal Judge William C.

As he explores the house he finds many strange items weird, unintelligible inscriptions and a set of chains and wrist bands. The house is alive to him-rit becomes an obsession just as he is obsessed by his subconscious. If the house awakened the latent self-destructive process in him, it was Mina (minatory?), the daughter of a tenant farmer-moon-shiner, who starts the process moving. After his first visit to her shack, during which he is mysteriously enthralled in her gaze, he realizes that " it has started." It U not coincidental also that Mina's face appears to hen "undeniably fishlike"-the symbol of Dagon. After "it" started, Leland murders his wife, then runs to Mina's shack where he is accepted apparently without a second thought. Already a mere shell of a man, Mina subjects him to horrible sexual torments which result ultimately result in his total impotence sexually and emotionally. He begins "to act without reflecting, to do without knowing why, to go, without knowing where." In short, he begins to be all that Dagon represents. He is a worshipper of Dagon. The ending, in which he meets his death but finds in his suffering a sort of meaning, is a bit vague and late-movieish. Perhaps Chappell felt this too and thus devoted a final two and one-half page chapter to explaining it What it amounts to is an existentialist argument and is no better than the vague ending in fact, probably worse. Chappell's style is fascinating although his dialogue sections are too infrequent and sometimes stiff. His use of the metaphor is effective at first but is employed so often as to spoil it. For example: "Regular monotony of the passing telephone poles dark, spearlike. The shadows slipped through the interior of the car like spears." The symbolism employed, especially the use of phallic symbols, is often too obvious and amateurish. The use of such terms as "man-thing" and "woman-thing" defeat his purpose and cheapen the whole effect. Chappell is most effective in conveying the mood of the story. Peter Leland's horror and pain is our pain and his insanity is our insanity. It is a somewhat depressing book and it will leave the reader with the feeling that something isn't right that it shouldn't end when it does. It is a fascinating book in its psychological interpretations but not in its plot or message. It is a challenging book to analyze and even more challenging, perhaps, to enjoy. But it is worth reading. Fred Chappel is a good writer one to watch. violence to the academic atmosphere of the institutions," or who espouse "the philosophy of everthrow of the government of the United States." Speakers who are "in disrepute in the area from whence they come" are also outlawed by the resolution.

Ban of all whites." young Mississippi The trustees, appointed by Governor John Bell Williams, appaently have the support of many state politicians for their use of the speaking ban on the college campuses. Students at Mississippi feel that the ban serves only to bar "political figures whose stand disagrees with that of the trustees." t i i - 1 A : i
