.•JWPtP m5 Since University of Kentucky bas ketball stars were pulled into tbs basketball scandals a few days ago, State College alumni have been as nervous as a cat on a hot roof. All along they had felt that some how North Carolina fcfuns just could not be a party to such goings-on. Still, State has played with the best and has been in games with teams already involved in the throwing of points for the gamblers. \ We won’t believe it until we see it, but frankly are worried because of this statement from Walter Win chell’s column of last Friday: “A North Carolina basketball star will be involved in the current ‘fix’ scan dal probe.” Let’s hope Br’er Wjnchell is wrong.

'He later, re tracted the statement, admitting he had been given a bum steer. Confidence The word we get is that many North Carolina Republicans feel that Senator Taft is not the man to beat Harry Truman. Although they don't give you the chapter and verse, they feel that Taft has done too much toe dancing mid has been a little vague Europe andEiseni tog the militaryp -ject, you am likely on the part of ] Churchill and Ike team pulling. to; peace.

It seems that on her way to wo* a few days ago her attention was attracted to a little boy yelling at the top of his voice, “Oh Lord Oh Lori, Oh Lord.” He didn’t seem to be very excited, because'he rolled out- the words to a methodical, sMg-eong fashioh. As he yelled, his playmates rolled around hijh on their little tri cycles and wagons. Then they would pull up, stop, and start off aggin. He just Stood there looking important and yelling “Oh Lord."

President Tribble doubts that the Baptists can raise more than $1, 000,000 Of this amount. It is felt that the $2,000,000 from the Baptist organisation would virtually assure an additional $5,000,000 by the mid dle of 1058. .
