Dr. B. Frank Hall is pastor of
Pearsall Memorial Presbyterian
Church, and Chairman of the
Department of Religion, Uni
versity of N. C. at Wilmington.
Dr. Hall visited our campus
Tuesday and in a very provo
cative presentation encountered
those present with some updated
thoughts concerning our present
day disturbed society.
Dr. Hall centered his com
ments around the problems of
the tragic world in which we find
ourselves. At the outset of his
talk. Hall noted the wave of
restlessness in our present day
world. He pointed out that there
is something wrong with our
society, government, and world.
Cries continue to be heard by
those in our deteriorating
society, but no one ventures out
to help his fellow man.
Commenting on the present
generation. Hall noted that, “the
younger generation shows
commendable and sometimes
disturbing restraint.” The ex
plosion of our society began with
the Renaissance, when man
began to look at the world
around him with cultivating
eyes. Hall turned to Pope Leo X,
who said to his cardinal that
“God has given us the Papacy,
so let us now enjoy it.”
Hall went on to say that man
must change the way he looks at
thw world, God, and himself.
The problem of modern thinking
is to find a place for values in a
world of facts. In regards to
man. Hall noted that every in
dividual is a design of God, with
a high and noble purpose. Man
must make his life as noble as
possible.
Hall stated that “the younger
generation does not exhibit
juvenile impatience.” The
younger generation is more
aware of tragedy which engulfs
our world.
Dr. Hall concluded on a note
that it is up to tyouth to create a
sense of genuine worth in the
earth. Hall appealed to the
audience to join with God and
youth in saving our world from
such a destructive end.

Incumbent Day Student
President, Rick Stewart and
Day Student Senator Candidate,
Rudy Farmer prompted a called
meeting of the executive board
last Thursday evening.
Stewart and Farmer, in a
letter to S.G.A. President, Joe
Harwood, expressed concern
over voting procedures in the
recent Day Student elections. A
motion was made by Stewart,
who was a candidate in the
election, to declare the election
invahd and set a new slate for
elections.
The source of complaint was
an alleged statement in the
constitution prohibiting cam
paigning within within 50 feet of
the poles as well as the
requirement of presenting I.D.
cards in order to vote,
Stewart told the board, “It’s
quite evident irregularities have
been present here...A person
cannot vote in private if
someone is campaigning at the
polls as he is handed his ballot.”
In reference to I.D.’s Stewart
explained that there was no way
of distinguishing the identity of
day students. He assured the
board, after questioning, that he
did not campaign himself and
that he placed his name on the
ballot, “solely for the purpose of
providing a choice.”
Patty Wilkerson, senior
senator and head of the elections
committee, explained the voting
procedure to the board. She read
the regulations regarding voting
procedure as they had been
handed to her by her
predecessor.
The general concern of the
debate centered around the
existence of regulations
regarding campaigning at the
polls and showing of an I.D. No
such rules were found by any of
the board members.
Stewart appealed to the reason
of the board stressing the ethical
implications of the issue. Dunn
retaliated, “We are going by the
book, not by what is right or
what we think is right. There is
no ruling on this matter what
soever.” Dunn emphasized the
fact that some measures should;
however, be taken in this area.
Harwood told the board that
under present regulations, no
rule was broken. Question was
called and the board defeated
the motion to invalidate the
elections.
The regular SGA Executive
Board Monday night expressed
its approval of President Nixon’s
recent action of sending military
troops into Cambodia. The
sparsely attended meeting was
almost over when Jerry Broyal,
Junior class Senator, moved that
the, “Executive Board of the
SGA of A.C.C. go on record as
opposing President Nixon’s
move of sending American
troops into Cambodia. Upon
approval of this motion letters
should be sent to our Senators
and CONGRESSMEN EX
PRESSING OUR PROTEST TO
President Nixon’s use of
American troops for an invasion
of Cambodia.”
After Broyal finished reading
the motion, complete silence fell
over the Board and several red
faced Board members cast
uncomfortable glances at one
another. But the silence per
sisted, no one seconded the
motion, and President Harwood
declared the motion defeated.
In an interview following the
meeting, Broyall told the
COLLEGIATE that, “It’s really
a conservative Board we have. I
didn’t think the motion would
