Dean Cecil Johnson of the General College made this an nouncement yesterday. Student Body President Sonny Evans said the "flu epidemic here on campus is1 bordering on the critical." He said, "it is my understand-' ing that it has been determined that this is not Asian flu, but that this is a virus of a different na- ture but just as contagious." He stated that one .dorm has over 50 percent of its members in bed and that several fraternities. have "virtually" their-emtre mem bership in bed." He cited as "the terrible part of the situation" the fact that stu dents who can not be aecommo- I dated at the infirmary have to go to their dorm rooms "where no medical aid is available." SONNY EVANS Vetoes Fund Bill SONNY HALLFORD Gives Symposium Views x" By PATSY MILLER Student Body President Sonny Evans yesterday announced he would veto the bill allowing the Carolina Symposium to keep funds appropriated by the Student Legislature in the . Bank of Chapel Hill. The bill was introduced last Thursday night in the legislative meet ing. Evans further stated that he is acting on the recommendation of the Carolina Symposium Executive Committee. At the same time, Carolina Symposium Chairman Sonny Hallford stated: "The only reason for the introduction of the bill last Thursday night regarding the funds was to give the legislature full opportunity to express itself as to what the correct fund handling procedure should be for the 1958 symposium. "The legislature in an overwhelming majority of 20 to 9 approved of giving this year's symposium 1Lll. 4 ' U.P.

Miss Beatrice Cobb, speaking at the inauguration last night of the Philanthropic Literary Society Of ficers, emphasized the need of a leader now to know how to speak in public. She said, ' the. whole field of pub lic speaking has expanded." The speaker cited the number of civic crgani.ations which require the ability to speak in public if one is to be active. The Phi and Di are undoubtedly a "training forum" she said. The Piii was in her opinion a good place i to develop one's public speaking ! . . i . She talked briefly of the history of the Phi. Eight governors of North Carolina were members .'of the Phi, according to the speaker. She said the Carolina. Blue and white conies from the Di's blue and the Phi's white. In introducing Miss. Cobb.

President Jim Tolbert in his in augural address said "we are on the threshold of success." During the coming year he said he would strive to make the Phi "the out standing organization on campus." "I challenge you to find a better course in leadership" (than the Phi), he said. Although North Caro lina could train the leaders, the new president said too many went to other states. "There is no greater glory than service to one's state," he stated He claimed that the Phi should im press on the minds of the students their duty to the state. He concluded, "North Carolina will not settle for the role of medi- (See Phi.

Evans said that "no one can question the motives of the Caro lina 6ymDosium in pursuance of this privilege" to keep funds in the Bank of Chapel Hill. "However." he stated, "every one agrees that this is a matter of procedure, and that the remov al of student funds to an inde pendent source is a bad precedent to set. Sonny Hallford and the members of the symposium execu tive committee have done a trulv outstanding job of re-organizins the entire program, and I am cer tain that every organization and every student will cooperate with them in the achievement of their goal." Hallford said, in connection with setting precedents, that the symposium was not seeking to set precedents or to ask for special privileges in handling student funds. The matter was brought up in the legislature, he clarified, bp- cause "one or two individuals had raised a question" of following svmposium procedures of two years aco. The svmposium wanted to be sure that it wis acting open ly and with the full approval of student government officials at all timos. There is no maior controversy between the symposium and fn Hfnt pnvernmerrt officials, Hall ford said. "It is the desire of the Carolina Svmposium. to follow both the let ter and the spirit of the law as set forth in the Student Govern ment Constitution and defined bv in; Student Government." , y . .,BeDiagv.by-lefining a political party as "an organization composed of certain individuals having com mon ideals and objectives with the sole purpose of gaining a political office," Bernard of continued by saying the party accomplished this purpose by defining its policy and capturing the desired seat. Bernard stressed the fact that the University and it operations were a continuing operation. In this opera tion the student can be seen as both conservation and revolutionary. "Sometimes we are afraid that the students are too conservation", said Bernard. "They need to cry aloud for certain causes." At the same time, he contiued, "we are also afraid their ideas can' be too much in revolt." Describ ing the University as a "continuing organization," he explained that the student only continues through four years. Bernard stated that the adminis tration is often concerned that the student movements "are so tempor ary and have not been given enough (See VP.
