| Like Chapel Hill
BY Billy Arthur

In the issue of Family Circle Magazine is an
article titled The Day Cried" 1t applies in part
Chapel Hill.
Charles Laughton is quoted indirectly When he, the
magazine says visited the University of North Caro-
Ina to give reading, he went walking through the
Chapel Hill flower gardens Coming suddenly upon a
bank Of massed dafods and narcssuses he burst into
tears"
assume that the gardens referred to compose the
arboretum.
Had he been here week or 50 ago Mr. Laushton
would have shed tears but they would have come
from the bitter cold and the biting wind.
Battling the wind up the alley toward Tim Timmons'
Coffee Club the other morning, ! encountered Frank
West and foolishly asked why he was shiyering.
Cold" he replied But its not as cold now as il
was early this morning when was delivering the milk.
Boy it's cold before il gets light"
| caught on
You're telling me- began telling him I'm going
to give up that paper route if the weather doesn't
change. | thoughtful never get all those papers de
livered this morning 50 cold
Il know, Frank went on But the bad part Of my
milk route is that the milk bottles are cold too And
YOU have to 60 back 70 your truck extra quart
some persons left note for"
As walked inside, Tim wanted to know why we
shook So
Haven't thawed out from delivering thee milk,
Frank replied.
And thought I'd never get my papers delivered
said. Man it really cold when passed your
house al O'Clock this morning"
Look here right now shouted Tim IF you're the
guy that brings my paper know you were disappoint
ed this morning That mud hole in front Of my house
that you usually throw the paper in was frozen And
the paper didn't get wet like you to want it to
every day. How about throwing it farther up in the
yard?
told him was just Joking and he looked at Frank
Il was Joking, too | don't deliver your milk said
Frank quickly
Harold Edwards maintains that Orville Campbell err
ed when he wrote that only characters could get in the
Coffee Club
Takes men with character to be eligible" says Har-
old.

fcatons but I've attended several sessions and haven't

During the American Revolution
Justice was not feasibly administered
in many backwoods areas. A Virginia
planter, Judge Lynch, presided over
several miles from any law
court. Because he was justice OF the
peace, his neighbors persuaded him to
pass many a surreptitious sentence on
hated Tory offenders. To this practice
Of swift, personal prosecution or any
form of illegal punishment and mob
law he gave his name-lynching."

states but in others gambling is sane
toned by law. Anyway, taking the
country as a whole, nobody viii dispute
that it has become vast profitable in
dustry. If millions Of people are de-
termined. to spend money on gambling,
it seems reasonable that government
lotteries should be available to them so
that the money so spent can be used to
reduce taxation..-L. g.

Usher Of Boston, Massachusetts,, pub
lished the first Quotations" in 1855 to
show the obligations our language
owes to various authors for numerous
phrases and familiar quotations which
have become household words
The first nine editions of the book
were under the editorship of Bartlett,
the last Of which had grown into a
volume Of 1853 pages 1t was in the
preface of this Ninth Edition that Bart
lett said that the tentative life" Of the
work had been finished
But if Bartlett's scholarship was
thorough, his prophecy was bad be-
cause under the joint editorship Of
Christopher Morley and LOuella d.
Everett, the Eleventh Q93O and
Twelfth O948) Editions have contin-
ued to grow in size and in stature.
The Thirteenth Edition, containing
1868 pages of quotations and an index
with over $4,000 entries, has been
completely revised by the editors,
though many Of the features, such as
the chronological sequence Of author
ship, have been retained. The work on
the revised edition was done by the
editorial staff Of Little, Brown and
Company.
And so there lie ahead of me many
happy hours of familiarizing myself
with familiar quotations" which, /
hope, will not become too familiar to
the readers of these little pieces. I'm
sure that it is great temptation to
every writer, though.
Perhaps it's kind of poetic justice
that ] come back to Abs (as we used
to call it, to plunk down some Of that
coin of the realm we used to get from
him for those used, but not overly used,
textbooks, that a true scholar would
have kept even though he went hungry.
Little, I'm afraid, did we in those days
realize the importance Of scholarship
when the class was over, the subject
was dropped.
Now, of course, it is apparent that
everything learned is invaluable to the
writer I'll be doing some digging
in Bartlett's Familiar Quotation" in
the near future.

Probably no institution ever received more spec

Germany and moved to OSLO Sweden After it had
been there several years Mr. Morehead bought it. had
it taken to pieces and loaded ship Baltimore,

AS to the building When the architect Mr.. Eggers,
praised for it by professional friend he said 1T
ought to be good. No designer of any other public
building ever heard of had such an absolutely free
hand as far money concerned" He had been

sequence was that the building with the Planetarum

and the most important, consequence was that the

Thomas More and John Motley Morehead were born

Eisenhower ought to send federal
troops into New York City's public
schools. but not in the way some people
have suggested II would be a good
thing 10 establish special miltary-lik
classes for the pupils expelled from the
public schools
The Army for instance, has long
been in tire business Of education in
Guiding regular classroom instruction

tanned Discipline is one Of the hall
marks of military schools.
# the Army sent men instructors IN

same time provide necessary instruc-
ton and discipline
How could the federal government
justify interference with the public
school system Of state aid city?
The Intervention Of the federal gov
ernment can be justified quite easily
One Of the prime causes Of the bad con
duct and the gangster methods and ter
rorisrn besetting some Of the public
schools in New York arises from the
movement Of populations in this nation
in the last two decades, bringing espe
cially to New York City and to other
great metropolitan centers race prob
lens Of magnitude not encountered
in any place heretofore.
The increase in coored populations in
migration from south TO north within
the United States is not the only reason
for the dilemma The trouble is, com
pounded because Of the increase in the
number Of Puerto Ricans settling in
New York q.
The issue Of constitutional rights Of
citizens to have equal education is not
an issue The main question is whether
it is recognized that areal problem does
exist in the New York public schools
and whether public safety of the great
majority shall prevail over the rights Of
the minority to go TO school with the
ones who behave themselves.
The issue Of equal rights can be met
by rule which permits all to attend
school regardless of color or class, but
gives the school officials the right to
assign the incorrigible to special mill
tary schools again without regard to
color or class.
The crisis in the New York schools
is not a local problem, but national
one. Intervention by the White House
not with paratroopers and bayonets,
but with military teachers and discipll-
narians- should be welcomed by New
York, by the nation and by the children
