Shipping at Mcdonald

Mr.. AverilIS story from the Dis
patch'S Raleigh bureau about a So
called movement to Gust Dr.. Ralph
Mcdonald from his swivel chair at
the University OF North Carolina
makes interesting reading, but that
is about all. Mcdonald is a liberal,
and as such is one hundred per-
cent RooSevelter. and again as such
may consider himself pretty well es-
tabliShed when attached to the pay
roll OF an ultra-liberal university in
d great State where there are so
many WorShiperS of a liberal Presi-
dent as we are blessed with in good
old North Carolina.
Likes or dislikeS Of the doctor
should not, but unquestionably do,
enter into judgments passed upon
his conduct and activities of a poll
teal nature. Since first he got d
taste OF public office by going to the
legislature from Forsyth county, he
has been in politics up to his ears,
and hearsay is that only the condi-
ton OF his health kept him off the
State ticket this year.
The doctors friends point to the
radio hook-up ne has fixed for the
University during the year he has
been connected with the Extension
Service there. They also emphasize
the system Of public forums he set
into motion about over the State
and Of the success they have met
with.
His enemies. on the other hand,
are griped by his stirring of the
third term issue. and contend he has
accepted public salary money while
roaming the highways and hedges
dabblng in politics, which have no
connection with his job. They point
to the fact that Governor Hoey was
either directly responsible for or at
least sanctioned McDonald's ap-
pointment to the University lob. and
that he no sooner warmed his seat
than he began circulating about and
setting up tacks or pins with which
to prick the chief executive. The
climax Of these cndeavors was, of
course, the third term movement,
which the governor opposed, but in
which he was for the first time dur
ing his administration forced to
compromise in order to avert pos
sible defeat and split in party
ranks.
All and sundry, we surmise, will
admit that DR.. Mcdonald does not
draw a salary at the University to
work as political agitator, no mat
ter on which side he may De aligned.
1t probably is true, also, that some
of the same element, whose identity
is not revealed in the Raleigh news
story, are aligned with those who
are hostile to President Graham, but
Dr. Graham certainly cannot be
Henderson daily dispatch., 1940-05-09

charged with direct political caill-
paisning for OF against any one or
anv objective us has the extension
worker.
While Dr.. Mcdonald may never
have given any pledges to rcnounce
political maneuvcringS in return lot
the means of livelihood, there
would appear to be ample evidence
that he has mixed the two to 4 dc
gree that constitutes an over-Step-
ping OF the propricties. The State
educational system, and above all
the capStone of that system, should
be kept ScrupulouSly clear OF poll
tics, But il cannot ard will not be
50 as long as members Of its faculty
share their time and their energies
with campaign, for any individual
or cause. AT the same time. Nc
Donald probably has sufficient sup
port and sympathy, when it is CO.
ordinated. to sustain him in what he
is doing. whether it be proper or
otherwise.
Shipping at the extension worker
may provide 4 paStime for those
who would have none OF him. but
unless they can muster greater
strength than they have as yet
shown. his office i'll Chapel Hill will
continue to be headquarters for dis
seminatiou OF his radical philoSo-
phieS.

by the width of blonde hair. Captain Christie again donated to the kitty for games rolled under 90 by any male member of the Blues. Gooks like we are going to have quite a time on Billy's dough at the end of the season, eh boys.) Pat Ariola had a nifty 12s game to pace the winners in the first game.
 With Freddie Carosella their anchor man and captain on the sick list and Harry Becroft (by the way where WE'RE you Harry ab- sent. the fading Whites lost three games to the up and coming Stripes, who by virtue of three wins moved up two places in the standing. Perry White tried to carry the load single handed as Dick Owens and Harvey Green had their minds on another alley. but Perry couldn't do it. They say he also lost his voice. A bad night for the Whites anyway you look at it.
 Eddie DuHainels Stars went into tie with the Blues for first place after winning their first game against the Reds, but couldn't stand prosperity and lost the second game to Howell's bunch. Bill Becker and Dick (Flip you fora soda . cigar or candy) Graham spilled plenty of maple.
 The Eagles and Stars clash in the feature set this week. Both teams are within shouting distance of first place and need two or three wins to keep up with the Blues. (When va coming in Eddie?)
 The Blues stack up against the Whites and if Freddie Carosella's s gang find their real stride the former team may find itself jolted right out of that cozy first place spot. After winning their first three games the Whites have won but out o ftheir last nine. They're overdue, so Blues bewareD
 The Reds will attempt to drag the Stripes back into the cellar which the two shared up until last week. However, Joe Howwell will have to have his team at it's very best because the Afiolamen have been the best team in the league for the past two weeks.

 MIDWEST Ohio State over Minnesota-The Scarlet Scourge will be plenty mad over that Northwestern licking. Michigan over Illinois--Harmon is the margin.
 
 Boston College over Idaho-From here to Boise.
 Duke over Colgate-A good team comes into its own.
 Columbia over Georgian a wild close game.
 Cornell over Syracuse-Write your own ticket on this one.
 Fordham over Pittsburgh - But this one may surprise you. Holy Cross over N. Y. U-The Crusaders are on their way now. Pennsylvania over Princeton-1n the top game of the east. Harvard over Army-The soldiers are still groggy from that she'll acking by Cornell.

 The Temple team has one great advantage over the other teams. It has "Fishpond" E. Conte, the tn- surance propagandist, throwing out his chest on the ever present recol- lection of his triple strike. Brother Billboard" Ben pats him on the back to prolong the chest expan- sion. "Vallee" Nocera wonders twill Women Enslave Mem, so he signs the conscription Wednesday. "Water Buffalo" Latino and "Front-Page" Antonacci claim to be the individ- ual producing units of the team. Crime doesn't pay, boys! Be care full.
 When "Maharajah" Geneva of Purdue Steams up his teammates, they surely go to town. The Pur- due team is the fightingest one of the league. "Eight-Ball" Termine promises to don his new bowling outfit of a red vest, brown and red checked suit, spats covering croco- dile shoes, orchid tie on green shirt, white derby, monocle and um- brella cane Salvation" Lattangio's peat, repeat and double repeat pub licity for this team claims the spot light Sing Sing" Capobianco terri fled for fear of possible failure of his team, still Purdue, has placed all members on strtict spicy diets and Subpoena" Lombardi rests on his last years laurels and this years presidency. A strong candidate for the bottom honors.
 Young people grow up quickly mentally physically and morally and are always ready to take the helm. Cowboy" J. Perrilla and Boiler" Rossi belong in this cate- gory. These two youngsters play the game" to the best of their ability but Cowboy" still isn't and never will be an anchor-man while Boiler" is determined to economize on the expenses of the Grand by not damaging the pins by leaving them standing. Spaghetti" Caris- simi, paradoxically, still hasn't hit his stride but dictatorship of Duke will eventually be his. "Bootlegger" Piazza was scandalized by his ac- countable absence. Diaper" F. Per- rella inaugurates new style and form in bowling on which his team- mates bank for inoppressed support. A large question mark for this blue ribbon team.
 The last place team at present happens to be Cornell but my pre- dtction is that they will finish up in the first division. With "Cueball" Manzo subdividing his pastor raise Scotch poodles and rabbits, no en- trepreneur of Cornell can condemn his puny efforts Thursday nights. Fugitive" Stango sighs with bliss whenever "Bluebeard" Rocco opens up and really goes to town. "Fugi- tive" claims the phenomenon is in- applicable, borders on the supernat- ural. Mississippi" Palladino and "Punch-dTunk" Carissimi jerk their thumbs peremptorily ct their part. ners, making 1t well understood they are more than just filler timers. The gang classifies them as expected emergencies.
