MONDAY ISSUE Next Issue Thursday Vo. 35, No. 71 CHAPEL' HILL CHAFF Who would expect to run; into a pair of ricers while fishing at the University j Lake ? fc Most people around here know about Dr. Walter Kempner’s rice patients at Duke. Victims of high blood lires.sure from all over the nation live in Durham while they’re on Dr. Kempner’s closely supervised diet ol unsalted rice, fruit, veget ables, and a few other mild foods. They’re known as ric ers. Some of them room in private homes and prepare their own meals. Last Saturday a couple of Chapel Lillians fished all afternoon at the University Lake and caught exactly one fish, a three-pound channel cat that took a minnow. Near sundown they drew up at the dock and tossed their catch out on the bank, where it flopped around in the jA grass. Not being catfish eat ers, they intended to give it away if they could find anybody who wanted it. They didn’t have to look any further than the next boat. In it sat an elderly couple who were docking with no fish at all and who became real excited when they saw the catfish, 'they hurried over and looked at it with longing eyes. “Will you sell it to us?" asked the man. “No, we won’t. Hut we’ll give it to you,” was the reply. “Oh no, that’s a fine fish,” the man said. “We’ll buy it. We’re rice patients over in Durham and we’re not per mitted to eat any salt-water fish because they have salt (Continued on Page 2) Mrs. Heitman Is Home From Trip Mrs. John Carr Heilman has returned from attending the 40th annual convention of the American Legion Auxiliary in Chicago.

Coach Rob Culton's crew con llinuously sputtered on offense, hut the defensive unit saved the nigh! on several occasions. Aljoii! the only thing resembling a sustained drive came on the I Wildcats' first series when they 'moved to tln• Southern 35 and also near the end ol the first ; ihalf when halfback Charlie Hub hard knifed over the goal Inn from two yards out for the win nmg margin j Numerous penalties stalled other drives. Southern's Rebels advanced to j the Chattel Hill nine in the first quarter, to the four in the sec ond stanza, to the eight in the j third quarter, and were on the Wildcat nine with 10 seconds left jin the game Rut a crashing Chattel Hill line staved off all threats. Right halfback Hubbard was the most consistent ground gainer lor the Hill tans, running II times for a 5 2 average He also made a strategic pass interception in the third quarter Fullback Bob Madry and left hail hack Dave Henry picked up considerable yardage, also Touted quarterback Sultir Roy had an off night with his passing game, hitting on only three of eleven aerials The senior co captain did run the quarterback keeper play successfully, though Leading the hard-charging Wild cat forward wall were center John McNeill, tackle Ronald Wright, and guards Bill Aldridge and Larry Crabtree. McNeill recovered a Southern fumble that led to the Wildcat score. He [jounced on another -Southern bobble earlier, stifling a deep Rebel penetration And the 17U-pound senior also ' blocked a Southern punt. The lone Chapel Hill talley start ed when McNeill recovererd a Sou them fumble on the Rebel 36 Roy carried for three. An un necessary roughness penalty against Southern on the play gave 1 the Wildcats a first down on the 15. Roy then hit end Bob Larsh with a pass on the five.

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1958 with great eonfidence, others less assured; but all of them going back to school for another year of work and fun. The first graders caught by the Weekly photographer this morning as the local schools opened their doors were Jean Birmingham and Sarah Ann Crabtree (left pieture, 1. to r.). with their moth- McMahon Defines Laws On Liquor Sale Here (Editor’s note: Alex McMahon, an assistant director of the University’s Institute of Government, has written the following letter to County Commissioner Donald Stanford about existing laws concerning the establishment of liquor stores in or near Chapel Mill.) I Dear Mr. Stanford: You asked me whether or not there was a prohibition against the etsablishmenf ot liquor stores within a certain distance from the University of North Carolina. This 'question seems to be a recurring one, and I shall give you the best answer I can on it. For more than one hundred years, from 1827 until 1943, there was a prohibition in '.'.it- slat Acs concerning the sale of liquor in the vicinity of Chapel Hill. In the early years, the prohibition in volved sale within two miles of Chapel Hill, hut since the lale Htoo's and up until 1943, the pro hibition involved a lour mile limit j As it existed during its last sixty years, the section involved read as follows Any license granted to retail spirilous or malt liquors, wines or cordials, at Chapel Hill, or within four miles thereof, shall be void; and no person shall sell or deliver, or di rectly or indirectly receive any compensation for any spirilous liquors, hitters, or any intoxicating drinks wit Inn lour miles of the certiorate limits of Chapel Hill, Orange County, or within that village No person shall erect, keep, maintain, in have at Chapel Hill, or within lour miles thereof, any tippling house, establishment, or place lor sale of wines, cordials, spirit ous or malt liquors It shall he unlawful for any person to sell or deliver, or offer to sell or deliver, or directly or indi rectly receive any compensa lion lor any spirilous or malt liquois, hitters, or any inloxi taung drinks lor the purpose i of being used, or with knowl edge that the same will be j used at Chapel Hill, or within four miles, thereof, by any student of the university, with out permission iri writing from the president of the univer sity, nr some other member ol the I acuity No person, at or within lour miles oi Chapel Hill, shall give or furnish any electioneering treat or enter tainmerit. This statute was last codified j as section 5801, Coneoiidated Mat ‘ utes of North Carolina, which I served as our codification .of law from 1917 to 1943 During this period, of course, we went through I national prohibition, and then through its repeal. In the state!, law, we had the Turlington AcU ol 1923, which generally prohibited , the manufacture, sale, and pos > session of intoxicating liquor This j basic dry law was amended by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act of 1937, which provided for j the establishment of county liquor stores on a local option basis; the Beverage Control Act of 1939, which provides for the manufac ture and sale of beer and upforti fied wines; the Fortified Wine Control Act of 1941, which pro vides for the sale of fortified wines; and various other laws generally providing for our sys tem of local option on alcoholic bovarages It was apparently in the light of those national and state laws that the codifiers of the General Stat utes of North Carolina, our present codification which was prepared in 1943, eliminated old section 5801 from the codification. While certain other sections pro hibiting certain activities at or near Chapel Hill were brought forward into the General Statutes, including sections 5802, prohibit ing billiard tables and bowling al ’ ir-wand 5803, prohibiting cerLun entertainments without the per mission of the president—now co dified as G.S. 116 42 and 116-43, respectively, the compilers of the General Statutes, concluded that section 5801 was obsolete. They said as much in the Table of De leted Sections, which begins at page 391 of Volume IV-A, ami on page 399 the entry appears. "Sec lion 5801. OBS," meaning obso lete. Moreover, the General As senility ol North Carolina, by adopting the General Statutes, ap parently approved ttie elimination of ttus section a. obsolete. In aJ union, the various law enforce menl agencies ol [lie Town ol Chapel Hill, Orange County, ami the State ol North Carolina ap parently have come to the same conclusion, because you note that the old prohibition applies to beer and wine rnueli as to stronger liquois, and yet there has bee.U no attempt to prevent the sale ol these beverages in or near Chapel Hill I hope this resume of the slat uti s will he ol assistance to you Os course, you realize that my •opinion has no official slanuing li might tu- that you would like to consult' your county attorney about tins matter, and perhaps even, through him the Attorney General jof North Carolina, who has the ' re*|K>nsihility tor advising local | officials on the- state ol the law I would he glad to have you show them this letter, because it may shorten the time necessary u. their study of the question If I may be ol further assistance Ito you, I hope you will call on me Why Some Pupils School Karly I Because so many parents ac companied children to school this morning, classes were dismissed as soon as introductions were completed "With thirty and more children in a classroom, and! twenty parents there, the teachers were unuble to attempt any orien tation or instruction," principal of the Glenwood School, Ben Battle, said. irate parents had called the Weekly for an explanation as to why u was announced that the schools would he in session Mon day until noon when the children were dismissed much earlier.

Departmentalized Teaching Is Planned At Junior High School The Junior High School will have limited departmentalized teaching this fall. Because neither the additional five cents special school tax requested by Joseph Johnston, | superintendent of the Chapel Hill Schools, nor any of the then an ticipated income from the Carr boro and White Cross students was received, it was impossible to have the junior high school pro gram that had beecn developed : last spring Nevertheless, the seventh grad ers will have courses in the soc- ( ial studies, languages and arts ' and in mathematics and science 1 They will have classroom music, : physical education, probably Span- I ish and French and possibly i band, orchestra, glee club, science i Lincoln High Tigers Blast Out 20-6 Victory In Opening Game I Chapel Hill’s Lincoln High School Tigers, state Class AA foot hall champions last season, start ed out like they aim to keep the title by blasting Durham's Class AAA Hillside High School, 20-6, Friday night at the Carrboro Lions Turk in the first game of the year for both clubs. Coach Willie Bradshaw's speedy llillians proved too much for the sephomorc - dominated Durham .dub, blasting over two scores in the lirst, and one in the second period to completely dominate the well attended tussle, j Five plays after the kickoff, Lincoln quarterback Charles Far (ington sneaked over from the three and rounded an end lot the two-point bonus score to put Ins team ahead to stay, 8 0 A ! nifty 14 yard end run on the first ploy from scrimmage by William Ferry was the big guin ol the push Lale in the same period, Far rington skirted end for the Tig ers’ second score, but an attempt for the extra [Joints failed and it was 14 0. In the second period John Rend ergrais, Chapel Hill fullback, went up the middle for three yards and the Tigers’ final points for the night, as tiie extra-points try again failed. Some fancy stepping by Hill side’s Johnny Woods and Harold Nunn put the bail in position early in the third quarter ior hull back Mickey Daye’s step around right end for Coach Russell Blunt’s team’s only marker of the night.

Houston in Fair Condition Noel Houston, a patient at Memorial Hospital for the past few weeks, is reported in fair con dition. Last week he rallied to ttie point where he could send u telegram to his friends who have generously contributed blood for his many needed transfusions. His condition became worse and he needed many more transfusions toward the latter part of the week.
