the controversy over the wearing
of sports attire on campus drew
up the following resolution:

athletic attire may be worn
in the jstudent Union Building,
excluding the cafeteria, bet
ween the hours of 2;00 and 5:00-
P.M. and 7:00 P. M. closing.
This attire may also be worn
in all dormitory parlors bet
ween the hours of 2:00 P.M.
and 1:00 A. M.
Such attire is still inappro
priate for all academic areas.
On nights of special dress
occasions, sports attire will
be allowed in the Student Union
Building. Such times shall be
determined by the President
of the SGA in conjunction with
the Administrative Council.
Boling proposed the following
amendments:

clean athletic attire may be
worn in the Student Union
Building, excluding the cafe
teria, between the hours of
2:00 P.M. and closing.
(2) This attire may also be
worn in all dormitory parlors
at any time.
The Resolution must be passed
by the administration council be
fore it becomes effective.

senior class the officers are
as follows: Carl Alderman, pre
sident, Lyn Holden, vice pre
sident, Julia Barrett, secretary,
and Rusty Lamm, treasurer.

sident; Gred Tapson^jocejiresi-
dent, Claire Anderson, se-
Setary, and Diane Wood, treas

The president of the rising
senior class, Carl Alderman,
has hopes that his class can be
the most outstanding to graduate
from N.C.W.C.” Through good
co-operation the class can de
velop to its fullest, and leave a
lasting memory ” says Alder
man.
Blaine Adams acting as spokes
man for the new slate of Jun
ior officers expressed the hope
that through various projects,
with major emphasis being on one
to sell all-purpose seat mats,
the class could be put in good
financial condition. He antici
pates an.active class next^ear
with good participation and unity
in its function.
In an inte/view with Richard
O’Neill, Y^he'fifture sophomore
president, he indicated a desire
for increased co-operation
among members of his class
which could include a more avid
participation in in projects, class
functions, etc. In this line. O’
Neill plans to develop closer ties
between the class officers and the
S.G.A.
Prevailing

Cedar of Lebanon
Given to Wesleyan
ROCKY MOUNT... A world
famous Cedar of Lebanon was
planted on the campus of North
Carolina Wesleyan College at
3 p. m. on Wednesday, April
14, 1965,
Participants in this memor-
al^le occasion were Dr. Thomas
A. Collins, president of the col
lege, who accepted the tree, a
gift from P. A. Parker, a nat
ive of Lebanon and a long time
resident of Rocky Mount. Also
participating in the ceremonies
were Neal Joseph, of the Coun
cil of Lebanon, who made the of-
fical presentation; John Minges,
mayor of the city of Rocky Mount;
and Stephen Down Rasberry,
grandson of Mr. Parlor, who
presented to the> col^ege^ags
of the United States and North
Carolina.
The Cedar of Lebanon was
secured by Mr. Parker. It pro
bably represents the first time
that this historic tree has been
planted on any college campus in;
the United States. Over 5000
years old, the Cedar of Lebanon
is the holy tree of Lebanon which
is mentioned often in the Old
Testament.
Mr. Parker, after lengthy
negotation with his embassy, se
cured two Cedar trees to be
planted in North Carolina. One
was planted on capitol square in
Raleigh in December, and this
second Cedar of Lebanon was
planted on the Wesleyan College
campus to fulfill a long time
dream of Mr. Parker.
The tree was planted with
appropriate ceremonies just
south of Nash Hall, one of the
women’s residences, between the
proposed permanent college cha
pel and library.
The college band played during
the tree planting ceremony and
numerous distinguished guests
accompanied the students to the
site of the planting.
