Almost 8,000 Clergymen Are Invited
To Planetarium's ‘Star of Bethlehem *
More than 6,760 clergymen in
North Carolina have been invited
to attend a special showing of
“Star of Bethlehem” at the More
head Planetarium here next Mon
day, at 2 p.m.
Chancellor Robert B. House
has issued formal invitations to
a list of ministers of Prostestant
denominations, with names pro

of the North Carolina Council of
Churches, and to a Hat of priests
of the Catholic Church, tho names
Although Mr. Woltman won the
Pulitzer Prize in 1947 for his
article exposing Communism, he
later wrote a series or articles
exposing McCarthyism and its
dangers.
Writing about the job Mc-
Carthy did on the Voice of Amer
ica Woltman said, “It will go
down as one of the most dis
graceful, scatterbrained, inept,
misleading and unfair investi
gations in Congressional annals.”
He added, "It was a mighty vic
tory for the Kremlin.” It was
in this vein that he wrote in his
New York World Telegram
pointing out that McCarthy was
aiding the causes of Communism.
Thus t lyt* pro-McCarthy trend
began to break down.
Mr. Woltman did not feel that
his opinion on the Near Fast
situation waj, worth much. “I
just know what I read in the
Times, u he said. He added that
he didn’t think that there Would
he a war simply because he felt
that Russia would not push mat
ters that far. As for the Hun
garian uprising,'he was surprised
that it took place.
While discussing our Foreign
Affairs Mr. Woltman sounded
like a card-carrying Democrat.
“Mr. 1 tulles can’t lie trusted, lie
shoo’d have known what Hritian
and France were doing,” he salt.
Mr. Woltman did not mention
it and few people know it unless
they read Robert Kuark’s book,
"1 Didn’t Know It Was Loaded,”
but Mr. Woltman is apparently
known as a circus reporter
among his colleagues. He likes
circus animals and activities and
likes to write about them.
After graduating and then get
ting his M. A. from the Univer
sity of Pittsburgh in 192 M Mr.
Woltman taught philosophy there
for a year. The following year
he began to write for the Seripps-
Howard paper, “The New York
World Telegram,” and has been
with it ever since.
At. present he just wants to
round out his month of rest. It
is for that reason that he came
here to visit his friend, Norman
M uttis.

About 40,000 Persons to
See Duke - UNC Saturday
About 40.000 football fans will
be here Saturday tovvatch heavi
ly favored Duke play the Univer
sity in Kenan Stadium. The
kick-off time will be 2 p.m.
Although the University is the
underdog, the Duke-Carolina
game is always a hard-fought
and interesting game, and, there- 1
fore, attracts fans from through-'
out the state, regardless of the.
team records.
One of the highlights of the]
day will be the reappearance on®
Kenan turf of the celebrated
1940 University team—the first
that went to the Sugar Bowl.
They have been invited back as
guests of the University, and
although some of the '4O players
are scattered all over the coun-l
try and globe, there are said to
be about 00 acceptances, includ
ing wives, for the reunion.
The Duke and Carolina bands
will put on their usual colorful
half-time show, the Carolina card
section has devised some special
spectacular tricks, and the Vic
tory Hell will he presented at
the end of the game all of which
go to make up a very colorful,
exciting and entertaining after
noon.
This year, the University team
is beset with injuries as well as
a record which is not as good as
Duke's. Hut the Tar Heels have
come along fast and played bet
ter on each succeeding week since
the season iqiened. Can they do
that Saturday with the team
hanged up the way it is is the
big question.

The “football road” will not be

to the Navy Field ready to re
move a traffic bottleneck for the
log game tomorrow.
The commission has had as
many as 150 workers on the job
at times and “lias been doing a
great job,” said J. S. Hennett,
University superintendent of
buildings and grounds. “Hut it
was just impossible to get the]
job done, with the had weather]
they run into.”
The road they were working,
on was primarily to serve N. C
Memorial Hospital from the N. C.
501 by pass and connect with
