No formal action, h o w e v e r, has been received by Superin tendent G. P. Carr or board mem bers and they have not been served by court subpeonas or otherwise. The Person board voted Monday night to authorize its attorney R. F. Burns to seek a court order bar ring the Orange board from permit ting the children to attend in this county. The matter has not been dis cussed formally by the Orange Board since it acted two weeks ago to reverse a previous decision and allow the Person children to con tinue to go to school at Aycock, and no official comment has been made. A meeting is 'scheduled for today at 2 o’clock when bids will be opened for the second wing of the Cameron Park School at Hillsboro and discussion of the question 'may come up at that time. The current situation stems from a hassle over pupil assignment in volving this county, Caswell and Person. Person took action last Summer seeking return of all of its students going to school in other counties. Orange did not demand return of some five pupils of this county attending in Person. Then Caswell entered tire picture by ac cepted 11 students who live in Orange at the Prospect Hill school and refusing to return them upon Orange’s request. In retaliation for this move, the Orange School board reversed its previous decision about Person's students and voted to al low thtm to continue as they had always done, thus inviting a court case inasmuch as the County At torney and State Attorney General office officials had previously ad vised language of the 1957 legis lative act was clear giving the county of the pupil's residence juris diction over assignment. The dispute is the result of the Pearsall act of 1955 which returned all assignment responsibilities back to local boards as an anti-integra- tion measure. Under the present act there are no administrative re medies short of the courts for coun ties which refuse to comply with the assignment law. The law has never been taken to the Supreme r ourt gram, inaugurated here this year, “is off to an excellent start.” He said that cooperation from partici pating merchants and from the Carrboro-Chapel Hill Merchants’ As sociation has been “fine.” The merchant's association will highlight the distributive education program during observance of the nationwide “Careers in Retailing Week,” Oct. 12-18. “Distributive education” is on-the- job training, but is not limited to this function. Through association ol school instruction and apprentice training and by careful supervision ' of trainees by coordinators, every effort is made to discover and de velop the best qualities of students so that both they and their employ ers will benefit through its program. At the same time, it helps parti cipating businesses by, among oth er things, assuring a constant, well- instructed supply of labor; gives lielp in training a prospective em ployee; acquaints businesses with new training techniques; and al lows organizations to determine be fore permanent employment what individuals fit their operation, and in what capacity. Students, to qualify for the pro gram, must be 16 years of age or older and a junior or senior in high school. “The object in this thing, “Mr. Jaynes said, “is to learn a man agers’ job or the fields of retail ing and merchandising.’’ Class members and their place of work; Charlie Beal, Beal and Tillman Grocery Store, Carrboro; Jack Carl, isle, J.

The students have formed a “D" club, with Bruce Johnson as presi dent, Joe Smith is vice-president, Jeanette Henderson, secretary, and Arthur Webster, treasurer. Prof. King said. He also mentioned that after utilizing classrooms throughout the morning and laboratories throughout the afternoon, a need would be felt for additional space within two years. Expected growth of the University would make it necessary to double faculty office space, according to the study. “Indications are that all utilities, dormitories and parking spaces would have to be enlarged,” Prof. King said. Regarding parking facilities. Prof. King reported that a study made last year indicated that 41 per cent of the present student pop ulation had 2900 cars registered with the Dean of Student Affairs office. Faculty and staff members on the main campus have a total of 1846 parking permits, with 1500 permits issued to the Division of Health Affairs. These figures show a total of 6246 cars on campus and a total of 3826 parking spaces. In other words there are parking spaces for 61 per cent of the cars, the report indicated. If the enrollment should exceed 12,000 students, 9,090 parking spaces would be needed. Prof. King pointed out. A full report from the long-range study has not yet been released until President Friday presents the project to the Board of Higher Education. Carrboro PTA Seeking 500 Members The Carrboro Parent - Teachers Association Tuesday night launch ed their annual membership drive. The group seeks to sigh up 500 members for the year.

A Chapel Hill Billings For Taxes Are Late Battle Of Orange' Friday Matches Hillsboro, Chapel Hill In Carrboro Tax billings for Chapel Hill area property owners will be late this year. Usually forwarded by Oct. 1, the bills are not in the mail as yet; But, according to Mrs. Ruth Ward, City Tax Collector, “they are sure to be mailed out soon.” “All I can say is that we hope to get them out as soon as possi ble,” she said. She noted that four persons are working full time at present on preparing the bills for post. Mrs. Ward, Mrs. Mary Lovejoy, town clerk, Mrs. Hazel Diggs, a.s- sistant clerk, and Howard Stew art, assistant to the town manager, are working on the forms. In Carrboro, Town Clerk Wins low Williams said that he had mailed bills to property owners in that town Wednesday. He said he mailed “about 700” of the bills. In 1957, bills for taxes on prop erty with a book valuation of over $30,000,000 were sent out to Carr boro and Chapel Hill property owners. Chapel Hill’s valuation was $25,173,330, and Carrboro’s was $5,000,000. Eight CHHS Seniors Pass Merit Testing Hillsboro “hosts” Chapel Hill here Frjday night , in Caryboro's Lion Park. Game time lor the annual “Battle of Orange” Is 8 o’clock. Chapel Hill, undefeated in four starts, and Hillsboro, winners in (wo of three, are both high-ranking tDistrict HI clubs.. A close ball game is in prospect. Muddy playing conditions at the Carrboro park may enter into the picture. ■ C'apei Hill generally de pends on speed and a shpiT) pa.Ss- ing attack, while Hillsboro relies on power-particularly in the line— and that may count heavily in slow footing. However, Chapel Hill coach Bob Culton said today that “mud hurts cne team as much as the other. I believe my backs can go in the mud.” Coach Culton expressed high re gard for the Hillsboro club. “They’re big, strong, rough and lough and love to play football,” was his opinion. Hillsboro, coached by the vet eran Glenn Auman, has been a thorn for their south-county neigh bors tor many years. In fact, liis club hasn’t lost to Chapel Hill 'since 1S49 . . . the closest w'as a 7-7 tie in 1955. Last year they throttled the ,’Cats, 20-7 Coach Cullon said that Sis charges are “in fine physical and mental condition'’ for the pnc™in!cr, , He said tliai Chapel Hill ha'’s had Eight Chapel Hill High School seniors have qualified for further competition leading toward a schol arship under the National Merit Scholarship program. Miss May Marshbanks, principal, announced today. The students are now entitled to compete with thousands of oth er high school seniors for possible scholarships, she said. She noted, however, that students actually winning after passing all examina tions would not automatically be qualified for a scholarship. In any event, they will receive national recognition. Qualifying here as semifinalists after taking examinations were Robert Miller, Peter Wilson, Ann Himeleck, Jim Howard, Ed Thomp son, Tom Raney, Dennis King, and Claire Pulver. All are currently CHHS students except Wilson, who is now a student in a Mass achusetts school.

Operation 'Open-Mouth' Pian To Be Held At UNC On Oct. 1C “Operation Open-Mouth,” a proj ect to save lives from oral cancer, will be conducted at the University's School of Dentistry on October 10. The one-day free oral cancer .clinic, which will also be conducted at Duke and Watts Hospitals, is ex pected to attract thousands of per sons from across the State. Conducted by the North Carolina Dental Society and the American Cancer Society’s North Carolina Di- \'ision, the clinic hours will be from 11:00 a.m, to 7:00 p.m. Dr. Marvin Evans, Chairman of the Cancer Committee of the State Dental Society recently reminded dental and , cancer societies offi cials that cancer of the ora] cavity is nearly 100 per cent curable.

More than fifty dentists — twen- ty-'seven of them i* Chapel Hill alone—will participate. Members of the dental societies of Durham and Orange counties are contributing their services.
