T.I.G.E.R. Tops Wheelers
Last Tuesday, October 22,
marked the beginning of a new
“«l movement on campus... girls’
football. The undefeated team of
T.I.G.E.R. (undefeated, that is, in
■”i'i|vollcyball) wiped out the
" * liard-working Wilborn’s Wheelers
(vO. The T.I.G.E.R. team is
composed of the volleyball team
from last year, formerly called
Tie Sexy Six, Wilborn’s Wheelers
is composed of a group of
acijl
out-of-town freshman girls, the
majority of whom live at
Memorial Hospital nurses’
quarters. The teams met, full of
energy, strength, many plays, and
want of one another’s blood. The
T.I.G.E.R. team, expertly coached
by George Lloyd and George
Michael Armstrong was spurred to
victory by masterminded plays of
strategy. The first touchdown ever
executed on this campus by a
female was scored by Lynn ^
Stavrakas. The Wilborn Wheelers,
coached by Gayle Rogers (who |
was the coach of the Sexy Six)(
kept the spirit and strength of his i
team up remarkably well. The,
next game was scheduled for]
October 28 when the football i
field again was in habited by the |
girls of UNC-C.

Burns Speaks Here
{Continued from page I)
” • A share of the blame for the
pcent war. Mr. Burns suggested.,
ied’’''gl't h:ve beLUi placed with U

ilei > withdraw UN troops from the
Iseis —I
border area withdrew them
completely Iron Sinai, forcing the
U.A.R. o commi itself or lose
face an on,; he Arab States.
Askeil ly a fatult/ member,
“given tie wisdom of hindsight,
do yot consider U Thant’s
decision...correct?’’, Mr. Burns
replied to the negative. “He
should’ve drug the withdrawel
out, taken it to the general
assembly ....anything to get time.
The Israelis could’ve set tight and
given the West a chance to
respond. As it was, it took the
West five days to decide to
react...Neither side wanted war
and an extra couple of days
might’ve made the
diffcrence-they might’ve gotten
lucky,"
The complexities of
intcinational affairs are not, it
seems, quite as rational or open to
manipulation as they sometimes
appear-ltick and the unknown still
play major roles on the State of
world politics.

Freshman Class President Gary Williams
Williams Wins
Freshman Presidency
In the run-off election to
determine the President of the
freshman class, Gary Williams of
the Student Party was elected by
one-hundred votes. Rick Sabates,
an Independent, received
seventy-three votes in this
election.
The voting turn-out for this
run-off was somewhat less than
that for the first ballot.
Two-hundred-and-twenty-one out
of over seven-hundred voted in
the initial election, as opposed to
one-hundred-and-seventy-three
out of over seven-hundred in the
runoff.
From the freshman class the
Legislature gains two new
members from the Student Party,
two from the University Party,
and one Independent. This leaves
the balance of the Legislature as
follows: Student Party, fourteen
members; University Party, three
members.
Williams now accepts the
responsibility of representing the
freshman class in the legislature
and administrating to the needs of
the class in matters of importance.
He has the power to call class
meetings and initiate class
projects.
Tills election was somewhat
unusual from a publicity
standpoint. “This election just
goes to prove that you can’t buy
an office with expensive
publicity,” said John Lafferty,
Union I^blicity Chairman.

On Wednesday October 23, the
brothers and pledges of Alpha
Kappa Psi fraternity heard Mr.
Jim Carson, Republican running
for re-election to the North
Carolina House of
Representatives.
Mr. Carson spoke informally
concerning the Republican
Platform in the coming elections.
Emphasizing a need for change in
North Carolina, he expressed hope
that the Republican Party would
gain much ground in both the
State House and Senate. Mr.
Carson also expressed that he was
not impressed with the way the
Democratic Party had handled
state government ove; their many
years in power, and hoped that
this election year would bring the
needed change.
From Mr. Carson’s platform, he
stated that he was for a sales on
tobacco even though he feared
that this would hurt the
Republican Party in the eastern
part of the state. He also plans, if
re-elected, to help change the
Highway Commission which
would improve this facet of state
government. In this area, he
hoped that in the future the
Highway Commissioners would
not be appointed by the Governor
as in the past, but that a qualified
engineer would be put in the
position.
After a brief round of questions
asked by the brothers and pledges,
Mr! Carson left the initiation
ceremony for the pledges then
took place and the meeting was
adjourned.
