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. By JIM ABBOTT 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 See BOARD Page 4 Marshall In Show A graphic print by Thomas E.
