Coach Bob Culton's Wildcats thus closed their season with a record of seven wins and three losses. Their conference mark was 6-3. Cary came into the game with a 5-2 district mark. Cary’s hustling team made things interesting Friday night, but trail ed by two touchdowns before cash ing into the scoring bracket late in the game. Chapel Hill got the upper hand immediately with their 63-yard drive into paydirt at the game’s outset and maintained pressure for the remainder of the game. Starting from their own 37 after the opening kickoff. Quarterback Subir Roy stuck mainly to tin*, ground as the ’Cats brushed down- field. Fleet Halfback Charlie Hub bard brought the push to a suc cessful close by diving over from the two yard line. Larry Crabtree, a guard, successfuly kicked the ex tra point, and the locals led 7-0 be fore the visitors had run an offens ive play. Cary was contained for most of the first half but moved well in the second two periods. Chapel Hill scored the decid ing touchdown in the third quar ter on another sustained march, this time for 73 yards. Fullback Bob Madry scored the touchdown from a yard away, and the con version was again good. Cary drove deep into Wildcat territory in the last half only to fumble chances away. Finally, with about two minutes left to play, the visitors crashed across the goal line after driving 66 yards. Warren Feed tallied the six-pointer for the visitors. The Wildcats’ season ended on a familiar note: closeness of the score. In the 10 games, Chapel Hill scored 105 points, while their op ponents tallied 97. While winning seven games and dropping three, then, they scored only eight more points than their adversaries.

WINBORNE Although finger paint is almost a household product, few North Carolinians are aware that this versatile and popular art medium was first concocted by a school teacher from Duplin County. She is Miss Ruth Faison Shaw of New York and Cape Cod, and more recently of Chapel Hill. A native of Kenansville, the in genious Miss Shaw is known in educational circles and allied pro fessional groups in Europe, as well as in the United States. Her fame is due chiefly to her develop ment of finger paint and the finger painting technique, but she is, she says, “primarily a teacher.” Brush Disdained The fingerpaint, itself, was the outgrowth of a teaching exper ience. The challenge was a small Italian prince who attended Miss Shaw’s school in Rome during the early thirties. The lad disdained the paint brush and seemed to feel a real need to smear. “So I made something for him to smear,” she said jestingly, adding that the pro cess was lengthy and subject to much trial and error. While the patent on the original formula and the copywright on the name are held by Miss Shaw, she receives no royalties or other revenue from the commercially successful imitations. None of these, incidentally, compares in color or texture with the original. Her formula is secret, of course, but the “binder” is the same reci pe used by Cleopatra to make her skin lotion. This recipe was un earthed at the Vatican by one of Miss Shaw’s friends. Earth pig ments used in the original formula come from various places: the green from Venice, the brown from Siena, and the blue from Gubbio near Assisi. “Actually,” says Miss Shaw, “fin ger pairtting is an ancient lost art. Remember the bison on the cave- man’s walls? That’s finger paint ing. One can see the skin texture of the artists fingers in the paint. The Chinese used it extensively during the 17th Century .In fact. she continued, a Chinese student once introduced himself to me as a friend from the 17th Century.” Seems that he and Miss Shaw had finger painted together in a prev ious incarnation. Much of her work in recent years has been in therapy and re habilitation through creative ex pression. Miss Shaw prefers to use fingerpaint as an education tool. She finds that normal people, as well as those who are emotionally ill, project their personalities through patterns, symbols and col ors which reveal likes and dislikes, fears and repressed emotions. “Lit tle girls usually use red or yellow; the very feminine ones prefer yel low—Mae West’s favorite color is yellow. Boys prefer blue and the more intellectual types will use lots of green.” Besides her talents. Miss Shaw has brought to the University and to the State more than a thousand case histories dealing with person ality diagnosis as revealed through finger painting. Some of these his tories deal wtih school children; others deal with military person nel whom she taught in Army, Na vy and Veterans hospitals. Still others were compiled during her years at Columbia and elsewhere in New York where she worked with the delinquency problem. Re cently she worked in Topeka with the Menninger Foundation which “proved” the histories that she is giving to the University. Her latest and current work is that of Con sultant in Therapy at the Univers ity. Despite her gypsy* foo't, Miss Shaw always intended to return to North Carolina, specifically to Chapel Hill. “There’s a reason,” she says with a twinkle. “My grandfather Shaw, a graduate of the University Class of 1836, taught me to read. When I was little, I thought one could learn to read only at Chapel Hill and that it, too, was the place to go when one was old. I realized recently that old age was overtaking me and that if T were coming back.

The meeting will be held in the multi-purpose room in the back of the building. After the organiza tional part of the meeting is com pleted, classrooms will be open where the teachers and room rep resentatives will greet the parents. Yule Shopper Park Spaces Total 1200 Officials of the Chapel Hill- Carrboro Merchants Assn, noted to day that over 1,200 parking spaces will be available for shoppers dur ing the Christmas season.

New Meters Thinning Out Parked Cars Parking meters went into op eration in Chapel Hill today. Parking spaces this morning were, as the saying goes, “a dime a dozen.” Usually-crowded Franklin St: spaces were conspicuously avail able for downtown shoppers. Chief of Police Bill Blake re ported that “quite a few” tick ets were handed out this morn ing to motorists who ignored or forgot that it now costs to park here. .'“That was to be expected on the first day," Chief Blake said. Twice - weekly collections of meter deposits will be made for the first time this week. Carrboro Scout Drive Kickoff Supper T uesday A drive for the support of Scout ing for the coming year will be formally “kicked off” tomorrow with a supper for the workers in the campaign in Carrboro, it was announced today by John Boone, chairman of the Friends of Scouting drive in Carrboro. The supper will begin at 7 p.m. at Red's Cafeteria. ■rhe kick-off supper will feature door prizes, information on the pro gram of the Occoneechee Council for the coming year and the dis tribution of the prospect cards to the workers helping in the cam paign.
