1t will not be surprising if
U. s. Senator Frank P. Graham's
first speech in the Senate brings
down upon him, from the
agencies of Soviet propaganda,
the same sort Of abuse that they
poured upon him because Of his
endeavors for mediation in In
donesia last year.
On that occasion his efforts
ran counter to the disruptive
activities of the Communists in
the East Indies. On this later
occasion his plea, In support of
the Atlantic Pact, ran counter
to Communist conspiracies and
aggressions in Europe.

The first Chapel Hill High
School Band was organized IL
years ago, in the fall of 1887, by
David Bennett, a graduate stu
dent in the University's music
department. A fairly good set
of instruments came as q gift
from a Durham mill whose band
had long since been disbanded.
Charter members of the High
School Band included Monte
Howell, Allen Garrett, Richard
Bradshaw, Gus Harrer, Truett
Bennett, and Bucky RosemCnd.
This first group showed amaz-
ing enthusiasm and ability and
made excellent progress. With
in two years the Band had en-
tered the State Music Contest
in Greensboro and won top rat
ing.
Local civic clubs contributed
money for the purchase of new
instruments from time to time,
and the Band improved and ex-
panded until it numbered 81
pieces during the school year Of
1939-4O. Kimball Hartman took
over the leadership Of the Band
in 1910 and led q drive to equip
the group with uniforms. Forty
blouses and caps were bought
before the end of the year. Band
members cut lawns, minded
babies, and did odd jobs to help

Prizes to Be Won at
Tuesday Night Games

One of the big events in next
weeks band benefit campaign
will be the doubleheader softball
game at Z PM. Tuesday on the
Carrboro athletic field.
The feature game (and the
second of the two) will be be-
tween the Electric Construction
Company, which this week won
the district championship and
hasn't lost a game this year, and
the Farmers Dairy, which
reached the semi-finals in the
district tournament. The first
game will be between the Carr
boro Athletic Club and Ossipee
Mills of Burlington.
The tickets to the games bear
serial numbers so there can be
a drawing for prizes among all
who attend. The games and
drawing are being staged by the
Chapel Hill -Carrboro Junior
Chamber of Commerce, members
of which collected or donated the
prizes.
Members Of the band and Of
the Jaycees have been selling
tickets, and the Carrboro Ath-
letic Club has given its full CO.
operation in making the eve
ning's program possible. The
price Of tickets, whether sold in
advance or at the gate, is what
ever amount the buyer wishes
to give to the band campaign.

New Sewage Disposal
Plant Is in Operation

Chapel Hills new sewage dis
posal plant, down on the Mason
Farm about two miles south Of
town, was put into operation
this week.
First, on Tuesday. the How
from Victory Village was turned
into the 18-inch pipe that leads
to the plant. The line from be-
hind the Kenan stadium was
connected up on Wednesday,
and the line from the Woollen
gymnasium and the new dormi-
tories on Thursday. It is hoped
that by the end of next week
the new plant will be taking all
the flow from the town area
south of McCauley street and
from the University campus
south of Cameron avenue.
The opening of the new plant
takes the overload off the old
plant down on Bolin's creek.
The pipe line through Battle
Park will be relieved Of the large
flow that has been passing
through it from the University
campus.
The new plant, the cost of
which, $425, 900, was borne fifty

town, has q capacity of 11s mil

Chapel Hill Chaf

Something that has been
puzzling me a long time is: Why
do authors get such scanty in
formation from publishers about
how the authors books are sell
ing?
have this mystery brought
to my attention more than most
people do because | am in such
constant association with au-
thors.
Many authors live here in
Chapel Hill. One way you hear
it expressed is that the town is
just bFImmin over with them.
Another way / have heard the
fact stated is. Chapel Hill is
lousy with authors" That is
certainly a mighty poor way to
talk about our authors, and /
wouldn't repeat it except that
4 want to keep the record
straight.

Television Programs to
Be Coming Next Month;
People Here Have Begun
To Order Receivins Sets

Chapel Hill will be getting
.television programs from
Greensboro some time in Au-
gust. Maybe by the middle Of
the month.
Already programs are COM
ing in from Charlotte. but they
show blurred and fuzzy on the
screen because Chapel Hill is
out of Charlotte's effective tele-
vision range. The experts say
SO miles is the limit for good
reception. The airline distance
from here to Greensboro is about
40 miles.
The Ogburn furniture store
on West VI Franklin street is tefe-
vision headquarters for Chapel
Hill, and a company of citizens
gather there at $50 every
afternoon to see what's coming
in from Charlotte. Usually they
don't see much but a cloud of
particles that look like snow
flakes; but it's fun, anyway, to
take q gamble on what's COM
ing through and gossip with the
other spectators on how much
better it will be when there's a
hook-up with Greensboro.
When ] Joined the s:sse s:sse 7 P NJ. NJ
gathering one day this week q
house was dimly visible through
the snowstorm that was raging
on the screen. There were
sounds, too, but they were
jumbled- A bystander said the
snowstorm represented interfer-
ence from neon signs and the
ignition equipment Of automo-
biles. He said power ct the
Greensboro sending ! station
would be sufficient TO overcome
such interference.
Mr.. O4burn is the dealer In
Chapel Hill for both Philco and
Westinghouse receiving sets.
I'VE have orders for ID sets
now" he told me, "and wen
have many more orders as soon
as people in Chapel Hill realize
what teevision is"
The price of a set with q Z
inch-wide screen is $189. One
with a 10-inch-wide screen costs
1868. There is an added charge
of about $50 for the installation
(an important element Of which
is the antenna).
