It also reiterated a decree first adopted by the Board of Trustees in 1941 to the effect that nb com munist be employed by the Univer sity in any capacity whatsoever." As in the past, enforcement of ihis decree was left in the hands of the administration of the Consoli dated University. ' The Executive Committee's action, n effect, supported a recent decision of the Consolidated University ad ministration. That decision was to omit from job application blanks of the Chapel Hill unit of the Con solidated University a question re lating to communist affiliations. Meanwhile, directors of the newly- organized North Carolina Defend ers of States Rights, criticized the decision to delete the question on communist affiliations from the UNC application blanks. "We feel that we and the people of North Carolina are entitled to know whether or not a person ap plying for a position at the Univer sity of North Carolina and other schools of higher learning is now or ever has been a member of the Communist Party," said the direc tors in a resolution adopted at a meeting in Burlington Sunday.

C. H. Townsend of Winston Dorm A battle btween the State Board of Higher Education and the Board of Trustees of the University of North Carolina appeared ended with considerable loss of power for the Board of Higher Education. A compromise proposal designed to end the dispute was made public yesterday by Gov. Hodges after it won the approval of the executive committee of the UNC Trustees. The Governor, approving the agreement, said it, "represents the constructive suggestions of both groups, working together for the mutual bt nefit of higher education." The compromise changes , the original law which created the Board of Higher Education. The. governor was asked if he felt the change would reduce substantial! v thp v powers of the Board of Higher Edu cation. "I think that it clarifies them," he answered. "The language of the old law is a little roush. rrankly, it "gave them powers they weren't exercising but that people were afraid they might exercise." ine new proposal changes the purpose of the Board which was originally given the power to pro mote and operate a coordinated system of higher education. The right to operate was removed while the function of planning such an educational system was added. In this purpose the Board is to "seek the cooperation of all institution of higher education." The power of the Board to "require such insti tutions to conform to such plans' was removed. . The new proposal requires the conformity of all institutions to the educational functions and activi- Iate permission for coeds has been, granted tonight for the per formance of "Carmen" and Wed nesday night for the State-Carolina basketball game. ties asigned to them, but the Board cannot require any institution to discontinue any existing functions and activities without the approval of the General Assembly. It was made clear that each insti tution will perform its functions under the direction of its own Board of Trustees. . . The Board was originally pro vided with the power to recommend to the Director of the Budget and the Advisory Budget Commission the budget expenditures for each of the institutions. This provision was changed to provide the Board with the duty to review and appraise the budget requests of all instiutions and make its recommendations with respect to ' such requests to the Director of the Budget and th Advisory Budget Commission. ' Under the proposal the Board would lose its right to make any decisions oa requests for appropria tions by the institutions of higher education. Any appropriation request invol ing the establishment of a new educational function or activity is first submitted to the Board for ap proval. The struggle came about early in 195J1 when the Eoard of Higher Education cut the size of a housing project for married students at North Carolina State College. The Board of Trustees '-of the University of IVorth Carolina requested 500 hous ing units which the Board of Hishcr' Education cut to 300 March 5 of last year the Board was attacked by the trustees for denying them their traditional powers. By a joint resolution of the Women's Residence Council and dean of women's office, the one hour late permissions were granted. Coeds will be expected to sign out and in on a special sign-out sheet for these two nights and to return immediately to their dorms after the performance or game. told officers that his car was parked near the gym Monday of last week.

But the provisions of the bill, such as the membership of the one organization, have not yet been worked out. The importance of expanding the foreign student program was stress ed by Furtado, who said, "At the present time we have on our cam pus a large number of . students from other countries who are here because they have shown outstand ing abilities and promise in their lands. "Too often they never become a part of our community and because of this, when they, return to their own land, their opinions of our way of life are sometimes not complete ly objective."
