'DUKE' AND TRI-DELT': Paint On Library Front Removed By Crew Work begun late Monday on the . He expressed a hope that in the removal of "Duke" and "Tri-Delt" Daintinzs from the entrance of yesterday by building maintenance crews. The work, overlooked since last November when several campus sites were similarly van dalized, leaves the campus virtu ally free from eye-sores, main tenance Supervisor Giles Horney said. Removal of the painting was a long and arduous process accord ing to Horney. Two varieties of paint were used. Of the two, the "Duke" marking was the easiest treated and was completely re moved Monday evening. The "Tri-Delt" marking was much more difficult and required a different treatment as well as more time and energy before it was- removed late yesterday after noon, Horney said. Horney again stressed .the many difficulties encountered "in clean ing and treating the variety of paint products which from time to time mark campus walks and walls. Each different situation, he said, requires a different treatment. Pqnty Raiders Stopped After Carolina Win Last night's victory over Mary land nearly set off a panty raid. . When the game ended a crowd of students gathered in the lower quad. About 50-75 men milled around the area, shouting and shooting iirecrackers. A resident of Mclver said a few of them gathered in the wooded area behind the dorm and some i.hout3 of "panty raid" were heard. Student Body President Bob Young and Student Party Chair man iSonny Hallford approached the crowd and told the men to go back to their dorms. Young could not be reached for comment' on the disturbance. A few students were seen in the women's quad, but the only disturbance in the area was caus ed by firecracker. thrown from cars. The near-panty raid was first reported by a resident of Alder man at 10. By 10:15 the only per son seen in the women's quad was a campus policeman.. 1 Two police officers were seen in the lower quad at the time the disturbance first erupted. The Chapel Hill Police Dept.. reported that it had not been-officially no tified of the incident. . ii i -x - if in urn in im School Aid Needed WASHINGTON (AP) Sec retary of Welfare Folsom told Congress yesterday the nation will be short of public school ' class rooms "for many years" unless the Federal Government steps in to help. " '" ' Testifying before the House Ed ucation Subcommittee, Folsom urged approval of President Eisen hower's four-year- program for helping the states build needed classrooms. The cabinet members said the Eisenhower proposal $1,300, 000,000 in construction grants plus other aid to make a total of nearly 24 billions is "adequate" to meet the situation. He thus hit at democratic critics of the plan who contend larger federal expenditures are needed. Folsom also repeated Eisenhow er's request that the racial inte gration issue be kept out of con gressional consideration of the legislation. Macmillan Backs Doctrine LONDON (AP) Prime Min ister Harold Macmillan last night (See WORLD NEWS, Page 3) future such defacement of Univer sity property will be held at a minimum.

According to Irvine there was a rumcr that graduate and pro fessional students were taken in to the course first. Actually, he pointed out.

Magill addressed the University Party at its regular Tuesday night meeting. He spoke on Administration .Views on Student (iovernment Problems. The two premises upon which the University adminis tration bases its student government policy, according to Magill, are: (i) The demonstrated ability of students to discipline themselves which is the basis of ; -ono, c..c student self-government. (2) That student self-government is educationally sound toward pre paration of students to accept their role in later life. j UNC Library Places 26th Of 38 Polled Louis Round Wilson Library placed 26th among the list of 38 libraries in the Assn. of Research Libraries in number of volumes.

Take Part College j Interested students have been 1 asked to contact the student gov i ernment office in Graham Me- morial to give the time they would like to appear ociore the se lection committee. Young said he would like to send one male and one female student to the program. The purposes of the program are to better relations between colleges, to broaden and evalu ate educational goals and to pro vide an opportunity for compar-. ing and discussing student ac tivities and organizations, ac cording to Miss Learned. While the students are taking part in the program, they will at tend classes, meetings and other campus activities which will be helpful in providing a better un derstanding of the college. EXPENSES .. The only expenses for those go ing to Sarah Lawrence would be i for transportation. Young said leg;: islation would be introduced at the! student legislature meeting Thurs- day night to provide transporta tion money for those chosen.

These were: (1) Crisis in Student Initiative: At this point. Magill said student government was in a "depression" and mentioned increasing violations of the Honor Code, cosumpton of alcoholic beverages, unwillingness of students to discipline thom jelves. (2) Traffic Problm: Along this line, Magill suggested construction of a "multi-level parking lot"" north of the University medical area. He also said that limitation of stu dent autos was only a "temporary relief" and that more permanent ; action must be taken soon (3) Prices in Chapel Hill: Con- I cerning this area, Magill said he ! felt downtown prices were a bit (4) New Fraternty Court: Here Magill said work on the new court had been halted due to complaints from residents on Chase Ave. Uo ?mphasized, however, that he felt construction should be resumed to provide for necessary expansion. Magill said that complaining resi dents should consider the Univer sity's necessity for growth. (5) Book Exchange: During dis cussion on this subject, Magill said he felt the exchange's profit of $45,000 per year was not unreason able sincfb Lhe profits were going fo student scholarship.,-. Several Uudcnt agencies have requested ! lortiens of the exchange's profits. i (6) Student Union: Here Magill called construction of a new ex panded student union building a 1 'priority need." He also expressed ! opinion that provision of funds for ! the building should come from tho ; state legislature. The current buiH- mg wa built through private con ! tributions, Magill said. ; Following MagiU's talk, party j Chairman Mike Weinman urged i members to begin thinking of can didates for the coming election April 2.
