So far as can be observed, Carolina students and alumni have no more headaches than those at other colleges and uni versities, proportionately. But it seems a fact that Carolina alumni have been resourceful in identifying the suffering that of ten afflicts mankind. Benefiting from humanities studies at Chapel Hill, perhaps they are more than usually sympathetic towards their fellow men and want to help them. Acquiring scientific and medical knowledge enables them to combine and accentuate their usefulness to others by synthesis of technical information and the altruism that derives from bread human istic scholarship. ,If anyone has any better ex planation, it will be gladly con sidered. * * * Frank Welsh, a senior in the University, was breakfasting in a Franklin Street restaurant last week when the waitress asked him, “What’s ell this about the University going to tear down Old East?” Frank was shocked. He had not heard Old East was to be torn down. He had just moved into a room at Old East and wants to stay there the rest of the year. Besides thet, Old East is a shrine and should be pre served and protected from dem olition. He asked the waitress for her source of information. The next morning at breakfast she brought it. It is a clipping from a March Issue of the Chapel Hill Weekly, the column that tells about events in Chapel Hill of 10, 15, 20. 25 and 35 years ago. In 1923 the Weekly carried a headline: “Old East May Have to Go.” The story follows: “The Old East, the first build ing erected by any state univer sity in America, may have to come down. In tearing out the interior to remodel it for the uses of a modern dormitory, the construction forces found the outer walls out of plumb several inches. The bricks are soft and the plaster crumbly. For the sake of safety, _ the workmen have had to be ordered out, and the public is kept away by rail ings and signs. A special meet ing of the trustees’ building com mittee has been called for next Monday, to consider what shall be done. If the building can possibly be saved, it will be.” The sequel is that Old East was not destroyed. It was reno vated and strengthened as it has been since that time. And it will probably be on hand in 200 more years or more—maybe not the same walls and bricks but reinforced materials that will keep pacp with the times. living is better \(\ / — ifWwiMejv / J 133 E.

Human Relations Letter To Clubs 'X-* An Open Letter to Civic Clubs and Community Groups from the Human Relations Commit-, tee of Chapei Hill: During the past summer Chap el Hill discovered that a large number of its citizens were dis tressed and offended that pat terns of racial discrimination still exist in many places in our community. Perhaps the most distressing part of the experi ence was the breakdown of com munication between the average citizen and the protesting group. When the Human Relations Com mittee did try to get communica tions re-established in a. series of Sunday afternoon meetings, it was encouraging to see that some understandings were pos sible, even though the problems were not solved. It is clear that the patterns of racial discrimination existing fn July still exist in September patterns' that are in opposition to stated policy of our elected officials, our Merchants Associa tion, and many other groups. Those who were protesting this discrimination in July will be joined by others as schools re open and schedules resume for the fall. The Human Relations Commit tee would like to call upon each civic group in town to schedule at least one meeting this fall (the earlier the better* at which time to consider this civic prob lem. Specifically, we should like to ask each such civic group to invite one or two leaders of the protest movement to speak, in order that everyone involved might at least understand each other’s point of view. The Hum an Relations Committee would offer its services as they were needed to secure the speakers, to act as “referee”, or both, if it is desired. We would hope that there might be question and answer periods, during which members of the groups might follow up the prepared talks. It seems to the committee that such confrontation with our lo cal concern is in keeping with the purposes of our civic clubs, and might prove most helpful in the coming months. The Human Relations Commit tee does not suggest that this will solve our local problem. We do feel, however, a need for more and deeper communica tion. Such communication is a must if we are to avoid misun derstanding each other. We would further encourage any person or group to explore other ways of establishing and broadening communication -on this issue. The Human Relations Commit tee would also like to express appreciation to the . many citi zens who have given so whole heartedly of their time and A ergy to help solve this problem. The Mayor and Aldermen, Chief Blake and his force, the Com mittee for Open Business, the Merchants’ Association and Joe Augustine, the church groups and ministers, and all those who gave up August Sunday after noons to sit in a hot Town Hall these and many more con tributed a great deel this sum mer to try to make Chapel Hill a better place for all its citizens.

SEE THE 1964 TOTAL PERFORMANCE CARS [ AT YOUR FORD DEALER’S HOUSE PARTY the group’s interest in rheumatic fever is that it can cause se vere heart damage. William Lasley of Burlington, regional field consultant of the state heart group, reviewed the program which the heart associa tion is making available to its divisions and chapters through out the state. The feature of the program which drew most comment from members was the provision of low-cost penicillin to rheumatic fever patients, who must take the medication indefinitely to ward of recurrent attacks of the disease and increased dam age to the heart. To implement this phase of the program, it will be necessary for the local heart group to obtain the co operation of physicians and pharmacists in Orange County. As described by Mr. Lasley, the North Carolina Heart As sociation has arranged with the national drug firm of Charles Pfizer 4 Sons to purchase peni cillin, in the proper dosage for rheumatic fever patients, at cost. This penicillin will be stored at the state heart ofiice in Chapel Hill, under the supervision of pharmacist Carl Baugess of the UNC School of Pharmacy, and he will dispense the drug to lo cal pharmacists. Cost to local pharmacists will be nominal. In turn, they will charge the same price to the rheumatic fever patient who tenders an authoriz ed prescription from his doctor. According to Dr. Cornwell, “What we will be asking our lo cal pharmacists *to do is forego their usual and perfectly legiti mate charges for labor, over head, and profit. What we are asking our physicians to do is to decide which of their rheumatic fever patients need the financial relief of being able to purchase penicillin at low cost, and, fur ther, to waive their usual fee when renewal of the prescrip tion is the only service given the patient on an office call.” Dr. Woods, medical represen tative of the local association, told the group that people who had had rheumatic fever once had to take penicillin the rest of their lives in order to make sure they wouldn’t have it again. He said that the disease is caused by streptococcal infection, us ually a strep throat, and that penicillion will check strep.

Dr. Joyner, the association’s community programs chairman, will visit all pharmacists in the area to seek their participation in the program, and will also di rect public education about rheu matic fever. Mrs. Sieber, pub licity chairman, will publicize the program and provide educa tional messages about the dan gers of strep infection and rheu matic fever to the news media. Speakers and films about the disease will be offered to schools, clubs, and other community or ganizations by Dr. Joyner, and he asks that groups interested in presenting such programs get in touch with him.
