The contest will start at 8 p.m. at Carrboro’s Lions Park. The ’Cats, dumped for their first 1958 setback last week by strong Roxboro, 13-6, came out of the con test worse for wear. One starting end, Horton Up church, hurt a shoulder and is def initely out of action. The other starting terminal, Boh Larsh, hurt his ankle in the game and is a doubtful performer. Bill Whitney, starting fullback, is also out of the contest with an ankle injury. Filling in,, for the injured will be Vernon Davis and Jerry Kil patrick, and Bob Madry. Despite an unimpressive won and lost record. Northern has the respect of Coach Culton. “All of their losses have been narrow ones,” he remarked today. “They lost to a good Henderson team last week, 19-13, with three of their starters out.” The starters will be back against Chapel Hill. He said the Durham team had “a good, big line.” Reigning over the Homecoming festivities will be Misses Toby An drews, Homecoming queen; Miss Betsy Fitch, football queen; and Miss Tina Demerit!, senior class queen.

The Chapel Hill Human Rela tions Committee, created recently to “encourage goodwill and under standing between all the races,” has been expanded to 11 from six members with the election of five new ones by the Board of Aider- men. Approved at the Monday night meeting as members were Mrs. W. L. Lampley, Edward Danziger, Emery Denny, Jr., Dr. William Joiner, and Clifton Stone. One of the original seven ap pointees, Floyd Hunter, had re signed.. Other members of the group in clude Dudley Carroll, chairman; Byrum Weaver, Cecil Johnson, Mary Helen Bayman, Elizabeth Branson and Lucille Caldwell. Mrs. As explained by Mr. Carroll, the group—which meets each month on the fourth Tuesday;—is to main- ^tain good relations and avoid mis understandings in the community between Negroes and whites. ! “We serve as ‘listening posts,’ in the community and seek to maintain lines of communication between the two races,” he said, “and we are out to discourage “roughneck stuff between the dif ferent factions.” He said he felt that the in crease to 11 members will give his group “additional listening posts” to better gauge feelings and de termine potential trouble spots. The committe has held two meetings. at the monthly meeting of the Town- Board of Aldermen. Mr. Tapley will succeed, begin ning with the next session of the court Tuesday, Emery B.

Before entering the University here, he spent two years in the Marine Corps. The new prosecutor lives at Eight Berkley St. in Glen Lennox, is mar ried and has two children. He is associated with John Manning. Coincidental with the appoint ment but pertinent to the sub ject—and discussed concurrently —was a recommendation from the Orange County Bar Assn, to raise the salaries ol the local Rec order’s Judge and Prosecutor. Presenting the association’s ree- ' ommendations were Attorneys Bon nie Sawyer and James R. Farlow. Mr. Sawyer, who described the court as “a big business operation,” which increasingly demands ' more time from the judge and prosecutor. “I honestly feel,” Mr. Sawyer said, “that they are entitled lo additional remuneration.” Mr. Farlow said the association thinks the salary of the judge, now $1,800 should raised to $2,600 an nually. And the prosecutor, he said, siiould get $2,400 instead of the $1,- 660 he now receives. The aldermen voted to refer the recommendation to its finance com mittee for study.
