CAMPUS INSPIRATION
BIZ VICTOR MEEKlNS

As refreshing as the riot of color
an the Colds and browns of the
hardwood foliage in our Carolina
hills is visit to the campus of our
University of Chapel Hill. Last
week, l visited my newly married
daughter, sampled her cooking and
coinplimented her progress. My
early morning breakfast next day
was in the cafeteria of the Carolina
Inn, so fine for its quiet and rest
ful sleep.
Some IS years ago, I ought to
have been in college, and as l now
book back on those years which
were ones of privation and auster-
ETY., it seems it would not have
heen so difficult as I then believed,
to go to college, had ! the ambi-
ton. There seem, to always have
been ways for those who will en-
Iiure the toll and sacrifice to get
an education.
But long before high school days
should have ended for me, I was
out working. 1 felt the coming re-
sponsibility of aiding my parents
who We're growing old. / just
couldn't see how / could go to col
aege. wish now I could impress
on all students how much it can
mean to them if they will make the
most of today's educational OPP
portunities, and how better pre-
pared education fits them for
earning comfortable living under
today's complex and exacting de
nands.
Breakfasting in the cafeteria
tinged my memories with sadness,

3ELHAvEN NEGRO
BURNS IN HOME

Walter Palmer, So years old
Negro of Belhaven, died in a fire
which destroyed his home on Elm
Street early Sunday morning. The
fire was out Of control when the
Belhaven Fire Department reach
ed the scene at approximately 1870
am. 1t is believed that Palmer
smothered after setting his bed on
fire while smoking, and the fire
spread SO rapidly that no one could
enter the burning building to res
cue the man.

but eventually out of my observa-
tons of the young people trooping
in came happiness, and the
strengthening of my belief that not
all is wrong with this world. It's
inspiring to see the bright faces
held erect, as they come in. These
are young people of courage, hope
and laughter as they face the fut-
ure, and win make great citizens
because foresight of their parents
has provided opportunity for edu-
cation.
IT'S true, much of our educa-
tional money is wasted. A lot of
it goes into attempts to fit square
pegs into round holds. Some is
wasted even on the vain effort to
create brains for congenital fools.
1t often happens that a lot of
money is spent this way, and hu-
mainly is afflicted with a worse
fool being turned loose in the
world, than he would have been
had he been allowed to stay home
and be flagman for a road repair
crew.
l say again, it is completely in
spring to spend a little time
around our college campuses. 1t
takes stout heart to not succumb
to the twinges of conscience at
ones neglect of opportunities of
long ago regrets rise up, but all of
it is overcome soon by pride in
those who parade before us, in the
brave and hopeful pursuit of find
ing better world.
1t was conclusive on this ride l
must get across the State more
often. About once a year l go west
of Raleigh, but seeing one road
now and then is not enough. When
cross the state, l usually return
by second route to see as much
as I can, of its beauty. But it has
been so long since l was crossing
the state three or more times a
year, that few things look familiar
any more. Architecture h
changed, roads re-routed, ire
mendous schools, plants, industries,
motels and residential develop
ments have risen up. There is never
a dull moment now in travelling
North Cardinals highways.
After 40 years of more or less
activity in travelling about the
state, visiting every county, and
becoming acquainted with many
people in public life, l now find
a lot of disappointments when /
stop in towns, to learn that some
of those who were most appreci-
ated friends, have passed over the
river. That is the saddest part of
life, to miss so many one knew in
early years. The only compensation
is to make new friends and to be
friends to them.

Position Is Difficult
The Foreign Minister said it
was difficult to assess Haiti's
position in view Of the surround
ing turmoil in the Caribbean area.
He said rather ruefully that the
country did not have a sufficient
intelligence service to keep him
abreast of the swirling events.
He said, at is like being on a ship

The secrecy surrounding the
Presidents illness following his
collapse produced an inevitable
furry of rumors and deliberately
planted political reports. There
were some reports that the Presi-
dent was dead and others that be
had been spirited out of the coun-
try.
Such was the situation late this
week when this reporter was met
at the airport on arriving in Haiti
by an army colonel and taken di-
rectly to the National Palace. With
no explanation he was ushered into
the Presidential apartments and
warned not to ask any questions
CT the stricken President.
He was then taken into Pres
ident's Duvalier's bedroom and
allowed to shake hands with the
kedridden President and talk brief
ly. 1t was apparent then that the
gesture--his first visit of a news
paper man to the I-resident-was
primarily for the purpose of stop
ping the growing rumors.
The President was in good spirits
and joked about his medical staff's
struggles to keep him in bed. The
President is a physician himself.
DIR. Jacques Fourcand, his chief
physician, said it was difficult to
keep the President from getting
cut of bed, but thus far he had
been successful in this. He said
he had been somewhat less sue
cessful in keeping him from at
tending to any official duties.
The President is receiving at
least one electro-cardigram test
daily. Comdr. Thomas J. Jones
of the United States Cuba is ex-
pected here next week to re-exam-
inc the President. He was brought
here shortly after the Presidents
attack at the request of Ambas-
sador Gerald Drew of the United
States.

he stated, was another proof of
the great friendship existing be-
tween the United States and Haiti.
Meanwhile, internal political
pressures appear to be growing.
There was a lull in the activities
of opposition groups right after
the Presidents attack. This lull
appeared to be primarily to see
how the President progressed and
whether a jockeying for power by
Administration officials would fl
nally break into the open. There
is little question, however, that
the opposition will break into ac-
tivity again sooner or later.

The Presidents illness could
hardly have come at a more crit

smallest coffee crop in years, the
economy is humping along on bed

coffee would have been disastrous,
even without the disappointing

Tourism, which is a distant sec
