Members Of Faculty State Views On Propped Plan Of Staff Elections '-'.--- : ...1,- , ,0 : . Majority of Men Interviewed Are Whole-Heartedly in Favor of Selection of Editor for Daily Tar Heel by Staff Members Who Are Fitted to Choose Their Leader. In order to determine faculty opinion on the recent f proposal to permit the staff of The Daily Tar. Heel to .elect its editor,, a member of the feature board in terviewed several representa tive members of the faculty. Statements varied from hearty endorsement to distinct rejection of the suggestion, but a majority of .the opinions expressed favor ed the change. The men inter viewed were largely faculty members, who have 'maintained a close contact with the publica tion. Said Dean Hobbs, dean of the college of f liberal arts : "I am in favor of the change.. Without criticism of, anyone or; of; the existinglmethpd, I think that a position otthat kind demands a certain amount of technical skill, and should not be a matter for nWia e1ection ' stating: that The. men best equipped to know the most cap able man for the highly . spec ialized position of the editorship are those who work on the staff 'J F i a ... with him, and can observe the e3ctent of his initiative and abil- ity.

The. present method of electing an editor-in-chief with power of appointment and suspension was adopted to give the; editor-in-chief real power to stimulate and direct his board. When this change was made it was propos ed that, the editor-in-chief also be elected by the.. board. .This was rejected on the grounds that since the Tar Heel is financially supported by t the campus and spokesman for the Whole student body, its , chief editorial writer should be elected as is the Presi dent of the student body, its ex ecutive representative. I am in clined to believe that there is validity in that point but can see no great objection to letting the student body try the proposed plan, if they so desire.'i-, Carroll Suggests Compromise -The head of the school of com merce, Dean Carroll, declared himself in favor of a compro mise : "I believe that the nomina tions should be made by the Tar Heel staff and elections from this group of nominees by the student body."

By a unanimous vote the members -of the Carolina Maga zine staff in a meeting Sunday night gave their sanction to the recently proposed plan of em powering the various publication Lstaffs with the authority to elect their own editors.
