SPEAKING BEFORE 1BLS UNC
Faculty Club luncheon Tuesday,
Tar Heel Coach Jim Hickey said
his team quarterbacks get consi
derable leeway in calling plays.t
Only about 30 per cent are called
from his bench, the Coach stated.
“If he's moving die ball okay we
_ just let ’em go.” As for the new
“wild card” substitution rule, the
Coach called it “the poorest sub
stitution rule in football. You
need an JBM machine now to
keep track of the other substitu
tions.”
PETE MITCHELL, SPECIAL
policeman from near Birming
ham, Ala., who was fined for con
tempt of court during the arson
trials at Hillsboro last -week is
completely on the level, accord
ing to County officers. They said
they checked and found him to be
co-incidentally in Orange County
on family business when he was
hailed into the courtroom from
the corridor by Judge Mallard.
The other person given a $25 fine,
Negro labor organizer Mason Lon
don of Atlanta, left Hillsboro im
mediately after paying a $25 fine
for not standing up when court
was - recessed. Reliable repots
showed he was en route to north
eastern N. C. on labor union busi
ness when his car broke down in
Albemarle and he came to Hills
boro to sit in on the trial while
waiting for repairs to be com
pleted.
THE JURY IN THE ARSON
conspiracy cases took' three or
four polls before coming to its
verdicts of guilty on all charges,
according to one of the men who
returneJ^tBese findings. They had
no foreman as such. When the
Judge first questioned ’em on
how they were coming along Wil
liam Powell, Liorarian of UNC
North Carolina Collection respond
ed. Later when the verdict was
turned in UNC Buildings Depart
ment employee Thomas Colten an
nounced it.
POLITICKING SEEMS TO BE
cutting on some raw edges around
highly-organized Chapel Hill late
ly. Police were twice asked to go
to the Glen Lennox area recent
ly because telephone callers said
some Democrats were soliciting
for the party without a license—
which, of course, is un-necessary
Party Chairman Jim Phipps has
a list of all “Dollars for Demo
crats” solicitors turned in to Town
Manager Thomas • D. Rose, who
now doesn’t know what to do
■with the un-requested list!
HILLSBORO FOLK ARE HOP
ing for a big Chapel Hill turn-out
at tomorrow night’s Battle of Or
ange Chapel Hill-Hills boro football
contest io the new Hillsboro Stad
ium at the Orange Speedway.
They point out that there’s plen
ty cl pafking space righl at' the
field, seats for about 4,000 per
sons in newly-constructed con
crete grandstands, and the play
ing field is comparable Kenan
Stadium.
YOU COULD HAVE KNOCKED
oyer the Chapel Hill tax collector
with an abstract form when he
read a note enclosed with a bill
payment he received this week: “It
has been a pleasure to live here
... I wish you the best'd good
fortune in the future.”
