However,' the re bate system requires some expla take up the work left off several years ago by Bob Gorham (former president of the student body) and will be some sort - of a system wherein students can get back part if the price they pay for their books," he said. ' Jim Exum, UP candidate for the student body presidency, said yesterday he thought "we must move slowly in integrating this campus." He said he wanted every stu dent to know how he felt about all issues. "I believe we must move slow ly in integrating this campus.' I don't think it has yet. been fully proven that complete integration will work here," he said. STUDENT GOVERNMENT Exum said apathy in regard to student government was due to a Joss of faith in the ability of stu dent government to be effective. Concerning this, he said, "I shall try to restore this faith' by try ing to reach all the students through my work." HONOR SYSTEM The honor system should be "abolished" according to Exum, if the "students cannot make it work on this campus." ; He said he thought the students could make Luther Hodges Jr., president of it jwork. He said a realistic "re the Consolidated University Shi-' evaluation should be made as to dent Council, yesterday'1 urged how the honor system could be Carolina students not to forget CU Night at Woman'& College in Greensboro Saturday night. v A ffreat deal of planning has Hodges Sqys Don't Forget CU Night made more effective." Exum said he intended to put a weekly article in The Daily Tar Heel telling the students exactly what he was doing as chief exec utive. "I hope to be doing enough to write about it at least once a week," he said. CABINET "I plan to have a cabinet which will have representatives from ev ery area of the campus, and a. sub cabinet which will have a repre sentative from every dormitory, fraternity and sorority. Through these cabinets, I, intend to keep in constant touch with student de sires and, needsr" he said.. Concerning presidential appoint ments, he promised- "My presi dential appointments will be. made on the basis of personal inteiview with everyone who is interested in a . position. The positions which are open will be dujy ' publicized. I like ta see a man and talk with him before making '. any commit ments. I hope to secure some stu dents capable and vitally interest ed in seeing student government succeed next year." 1956-57 at a Council meeting last night.

Fred Powledge, UP endorsee for editor of The Daily Tar Heel, yes terday outlined three ideas cbn cerning new features for the 7pa per. ' "The . editor of The Daily Tar Heel should constantly inject new ideas into his editorial, , news and sportspages," he said. "Three such ideas have been in the back of my mind for quite some time. If I become editor," I would likevto start them as soon as possible," he stat ed. t 1,1 REVIEW f " ' - "One is a review of the campus week. Running on ' Sunday morn ings, the review would replace the present ditorial page one day a week," he said. "It would contain a complete summary of the week's events on the campus, along with interpretation of those events' sig nificance. A page-wide cartoon summary of the week would also be run on the page," Powledge said, "and we would choose a pic ture of the week. "Another idea one I could start the day I become editor is a short, concise summary of the world's major events, taken from the wire service minutes before press time. This feature would run on Page One," he said. EDITORIAL FEATURE "An editorial page feature called lees 'Pro and Con' would stimulate peo ple tremendously," he stated. "It would consist of opinion r from students, townspeople, faculty and administration on all sides of current campus issues. The state ments of opinion would be display ed fairly and fully, with the aim, of providing opinion stimulating material for the readers," he con cluded. Sound & Fury Tryouts Will Be Held Sunday Sound and Fury tryout3 will be gin this Sunday at 7:30 p. m. in Memorial Hall and will also be held on Monday and Tuesday at the same time.

Sound and Fury is a student mu sical comedy made up entirely of UNC students. "If you want to have loads of fun, don't be afraid to try out be cause we're all amateurs," said Spooner. "Even if you don't want to appear in front of the curtain, there are plenty of jobs backstage. So remember Sunday at 7:30," he said. IFC's Greek Week To Feature Pledge Carnival Tonight At 8 the nearness of the spring vaca tion, according to Pat Hunter, Four coeds will be auctioned off in the Phi Gamma Delta "Fiji slave market" booth tonight at the Greek Week carnival at Navy Field. Pledges from each of the fra ternities, on campus will conduct many different "games of chance" at the carnival beginning at 8 o'clock tonight. Paul Fulton and Al Resnick are co-chairmen of the IFC Greek Week this year. A penny "roulette wheel" will be busy at the Sigma Alpha Ep silon booth while a contest to see which girl can catch the "greasy pig" will be wagered by the pledges of Delta Kappa Epsilon. Students will have the choice of either throwing cream pies with the Tau Epsilon Phi's or the Pi Kappa Phi's. Opportunities to toss spemge balls at the head of a Theta Chi pledge, pitch pennies in the Zeta Psi's "penny arcade," "and many more game booths will be available at the carnival. Approval of the Greek Week Work Day Tuesday was praised by many of the Chapel Hill towns men, including Wade F. Hook, pas tor of the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church. He stated in a letter to Paul Fulton that "the boys who came here demonstrated an ex cellent spirit and performed a numbr of worthwhile tasks for us." P. L. Bunch, rental agent of Vic tory Village, commented that "it was a good job. WTe had 30 boys over here, and we were very pleas ed with what they did," he added. "I think it's one of the finest things done in the community," Dr. Samuel Ilabcl, minister cf the Baptist Church, stated. "We were appreciative of what the boys have done in our church washed the windows, cleaned the kitchen and ranked the lawn very carefully," he said. After a survey of Work Day Paul Fulton and Al Resnick said, "From all outward appearances it seemed that much work was being done and a great deal was accom plished. The pledges as a whole worked very hard ''and deserve much credit. We think the IFC's work project was a great success," they concluded.
