TRIBUTE TO A 'DEAD LOVE'—A mystified Carolina coed says she still doesn't know who the
mysterious boy friend is who's been sending her flowers during the past week and yesterday morning
greeted her with a fresh-dug cross-marked grave in front of Smith Dormitory, as shown above. The cross
on the "grave," actually a few inches of fresh dirt, was inscribed "In memory of a love full-blown died
young a beautiful corpse." The gal, who prefers to remain un-named publicly, has recently received
flowers, including a funeral wreath, from the mystzrious prankster. New.s Loader Photos
noiinced that Dan Uzzlc, Carolina
alumnus from Durham, had agreed ■
to donate a Hertford steer froin|
his Double-Z Ranch near Rouge-!
mont, to be barbecued for this
occasion.
