Milton Shapp, Philadelphia industrialist, is the Democratic candidate. Bliss tossed a word of caution into all his optimism, asserting: "Remember this about politics. Even three weeks is a long time to an el-rction. Any ret of tha President or others can change the picture." Bliss' survey, shown witn slid and graphs, purported President Johnson's popularity dropping among various groups, including union families and Negroes, and on various issues such as government spending, rising prices and Viet Nam.

According to legend he was reckless and unsteady. One day after an argument with a professor he disappeared, never to be heard of again.

Legend says he was killed in a duel and is buried under a rock at Piney Prospect. One version of the legend, taken from John Harden's The Devil's Tramping Ground, says Peter fell in love with a girl named Fanny. They would meet among the trees of Piney Prospect as many couples did. Another suitor appeared, but Fanny remained true to Peter. The rejected suitor, extremely jealous, challenged Peter to a duel.

They met in the woods at Piney Prospct. Peter was killed and friends buried him under a rounded rock near the Fanny, knowing nothing of the event, waited in vain at their regular meeting place. She continued to visit there until she grew old and died of a broken heart. Another version says that Fanny heard of the duel and rushed to stop it. She arrived just as Peter fell dead.

She poon followed him and was buried beneath the rock. Thre is a large red-streaked boulder near the entrance of the costle which is said to be Peter's marker, still tainted with his blood. Geologists say the rut color is due to makeup of the rock. Another version says that the quick tempered Dran-eoole challenged one of his professors to a duel after an arguement and was killed. Dr.

Kemp Battle in his book, History of the Universitv of North Carolina, believes Peter was ashamed to go home and wnt where he was later killed in a brawl. Bruce Cotton, authority on Dromgoole geneology, reports Peter was seen in Wilmington in 1833 and probably enlisted in the army under another name.

The Castle consists of a huge hall with rough Ftone walls, a stair tower, and larger 3 story tower which includes a reception room, upper-tower room, chapter room for Order meetings and deck. At the side is a long terrace, and doors lead from the Great Hall to a piazza. In the main hall are wheellike chandeliers of wrought-iron, and suspended from the walls are several animal heads. At the back is a mezzanine modeled after the min-stras' gallery of Anglo-Saxon times.

Near the castle is a semicircular rock seat erected in honor of former UNC president Dr. Kemp Battle. It is made from a rock pile started by Dr. Battle on walks in Piney Prospect. He requested every person walking up the hill to add a rock to the pile, and r.

large cairn soon developed. The seat was erected about the Fame time as the castle. The Dromgoole legend may or may not be true, but whatever the case, the castle guards the mystery in the forest.
