He indicated that winning a case de pends 75C; on investigation, 15 on court procedure and 10 on luck. Nichols emphasized that in all cases both the client and the wit nesses should tell the truth. Bookies of procedure for clients and witnesses are also good ways to help a case. This way they know what to say to certain kinds of questions and the attorney "knows the answers to questions that the witness knows." One booklet is list of do's and don't's in the court room, ror instance, never use the word 'insurance' in a court room." Nichols gave some of his opin ions on what makes a good juror and why. He said. "Do not have a woman on the jury if the plain tiff is a woman; they find fault with each other readily . . . young i women are real harsh . . . older j women are more sympathetic." nacc snouici no considered in! the .selection of a jury also. Nichols stated, "Jews arc more sympathe tic .. . Gcrman-Dutrh people arc not good . . . the Negro is sympa thetic and easy to deal with." In arguing the case, he stressed that the events should be given in the order in which they occurred, and the attorney should "stay on high points and strong points . . . facts don't lie." Liabilities and damages are being put before the jury; therefore, the attorney should get the jurors to think in the term of money. This can be done by list ing liabilities and damages, by comparing liabilities on things other than human beings "an Angus bull sold recently for $85. 000; is a human being worth that?" and by analysising handicaps in the terms of the jurors lives. , Nichols used demonstrations and visual aids throughout the lecture. He limits his practice to trial work and specializes only in the plan tiff's side of personal injury litiga tion. A i f! A I V 1 I! V"'1" r I - ill s '7 .

By DEE DANIELS Dave Grigg told the Universtiy Party last night that his resolution, introduced last week at Student Legislature, was "terribly misrep resented" by the editor of The Daily Tar Heel. Titled " a resolution of policy concerning subsidiary organizations of the Student Legislature," Grigg claimed the bill is by no means a political issue, but it was made so by The Daily" Tar Heel. "It is just one of the many bills passing through Legislature concerning its conduct," explained John Minter, party chairman. Grigg said the editor wrote that the bill was furthering fraternity issues, but Grigg himself repre sents a dormitory district. He feels the editor is assuming that frater nity interests oppose dormitory in terests. Grigg further remarked, "If it becomes a party issue, it will not pass." Also under discussion were de ferred rush, abolition of discrim inatory clauses and the changing of the judicial system to the effect that the IFC would have no judi cial powers. According to Minter, the pa questions the ultimate aim of all three. Minter continued. "Student Leg islature certainly has the right to do these things and work toward them. But the ultimate aim we ques tion is that of nfaking fraternities and sororities into dining clubs. We don't think these are the feel ings of the Student Party or of the campus as a whole, but rather of a few idealistic 'glory-seekers' who have had traumatic experiences with fraternities and sororities. Therefore, they arc advocating these things." Discussion of a legislative bill. concerning the possibility of a self liquidating stale loan for a new Student Union, was postponed in Budget Criticism Intensifies By DAVE JONES "The governor and thQ Budget Bureau don't realize what a great University we have here in Chapel Hill," said Dr. B. L. Ullman, Ken an professor and head of the De partment of Classics, when asked to comment on the Advisory Bud get Commission's recommendations for the 1959-61 Biennium. "Our University is one of the greatest in the country and we ought to sacrifice to keep it up," he said. "Our department stands high and we must continue to do our share to uphold the integrity of the Univesrity." Dr. Ullman listed three areas in which he felt the University must not be neglected or forced to retro gress. They are: "faculty salaries for without increases we can't hold or attract people; new appoint ments, for without them we can't increase; and library, for it has to be a good library, and ours is still a long way from being what it should be." He said he had been doing re search at Duke, and next week he was going to Harvard to use their library. "I was not being se rious, but I threatened to fly to London to use the library at the British Museum. It has some man uscripts that 1 could use." Prof. R. L. Frautschi mentioned four fields in which he felt em phasis should te placed, and that cuts should not be allowed to im pede. One is salaries, especially in the higher levels. He said senior members of the faculty are particu larly penalized by inflation and other cost of living factors. He said he was afraid that a merit system of increases might make the raises a "political football" and he preferred across the board increases instead. Other areas men tioned were the library, which is Minter claims, "This year we're the "heart of the University." He going to win the elections. There's said the UNC library is not the no question in my mind about it." See BUDGET, page 3, col. 3 not definite yet. UP election plans include com mittees in the fraternities, sorori ties, and dormitories to get: out votes; a publicity committee, and a banquet, tentatively set for March 12, to "kick off" the spring campaign. Suggestions for the party plat form were discussed and the exe cutive committee will decide upon a definite platform for presenta tion for approval of the party af ter nominations arc completed. Heel s No. One Rating Up For Grabs As Pack n H am HI ir wooiienijvm invaaes All Tickets Are Gone; Game To Be Televised By RUSTY HAMMOND The feature game of the entire nation comes off here tonight at 8:30 when N. C. State's revenge-minded Wolfpack invades Chapel Hill for a rematch with Carolina's Tar Heels, the number one team in the country. In the last running of the AP Poll, State was tied for sixth with Cincinnati and Caro lina was first. This sets the stage for State, as the last time the two teams met the Pack was number one and lost to Carolina in over time, 72-68. Carolina has a 16-1 season rec ord, its only loss coming against Michigan State in the Dixie Clas sic. Since then the Tar Heel have won 10 straight. State has an 18-2 overall record, and has bowled over seven straight opponents since its loss to Carolina. Satellite Launching Goes Off Smoothly A11 Lady Has Gap In Plate As Reminder Of Chat By MARY ALICE ROWLETTE A New Jersey license plate led to a gap in the dental plate of Mrs. Leland Olds of Washington, D. C. Sunday. Feb. 8. The license plate belonged to the car of a UNC student, who, with two other students, was in Washington on that date. Mrs. Olds called the Central Re cords last week and related her tale of woe, according to Mrs. Jean Hart, who works in the of- B.aptists To Discuss Political Barriers Political barriers to understand ing between Americans and foreig ners will be discussed Thursday night at 9 p.m. at the Baptist Stu dent Uni center. This is the second in a series of panel discussions on world un derstanding. Leading the program Thursday will be Alan Costa and Paddy Wall. Students who will be in other countries this summer have been light of new information which is urged to attend. fice. Mrs. Olds said she was walking down a Washington street when she noticed the car stopped at a red light. As she is originally from New Jersey, she said, "Hello, Jer sey, how are you?" The three boys in the car an swered her and she chatted with them a few seconds and found that they attend UNC. Then the light changed and the car drove off. It was then that Mrs. Olds realized that one of her false teeth had fallen out. A policeman stopped traffic, the boys were called back and they and several other gentlemen sear ched for the tooth. Finally, one of the boys handed her a small white object which she thought was the missing tooth. However, after the boys were gone, Mrs. Olds put on her glasses and found that she had a small white pebble instead of a tooth.

The Y, which reaches into al most every phase of campus ac tivities, will utilize its member groups to urge students to join the Y and "let us help them in pre paring themselves for a fuller job in life after graduation." The YM-YWCA is a versatile ac cumulation of executive commit tees, cabinets, advisors, profes sional staffs and several hundred participating students. The volunteer student staff of 12 to 15 people, the advisory group of Claude Shotts, BUI Carse and Miss Anne Queen, and the scores of students participating on cabin ets and committees are all por tions of the Y organization. ADMINISTRATION Two executive committees of 12 administrative officers meet week ly to carry on the business and administration work of the asso ciations. Two cabinets of 46 offi cers and committee chairmen meet weekly to plan and direct the program of activities. Over 200 committee members take responsibility for leadership and committee planning in the 25 active committees. An Advi sory Board of 15 non-student and eight student members meet monthly to oversee, advise and stabilize the program. Its scope of activities runs the gamut from the successful Fresh man Camp and the publication of the Carolina Directory to the Graduate Club. COMMITTEES Its v committees' 1 are numerous and varied.: There is the dual functioning Human Relations Com mittee, the Worships and Vespers Committee where the "women on ly" rule has been the norm, and the very successful student-run Finance Committee. All in all, there are over the dozen separate committees or working groups within the joint organization. Publicity officials of the. YM YWCA have planned explanatory articles on the organizations most Mrs. Olds said that the car was probably a 1950 Dodge a"T de scribed one of the boys as about five feet, eight inches and dark, another as a blond who "looked like a football player" and the other as "so brilliant" she just couldn't remember what he look ed like. Any student who knows anything about the tooth may contact Mrs. Olds at 3236 McKinly St., N. W.; Washington 15, D. C. HEELS LEAD ACC The Tar Heels are at the top of the heap in the ACC with a 10-0 mark, and the Wolfpack is a close second at 12-1. Tonight's game could well decide who will get the number one seeding in the ACC tournament, as this is State's last conference match. Woollen Gym' 4,800 seats have been sold out for weeks, but the game is being carried by five North Carolina stations on region al television. In addition, it is be ing piped overseas to the Armed Force by the Tobacco Sports Net work radio crew. In its last game, State com pletely ran over Maryland's de fending conference champions 53-377 in Raleigh. Carolina whip ped Loyola of Chicago 76-57 its last time out. The five Tar Heel starters, in cluding two sophomores, continue to average in double figures. York Larese leads the parade at 16.5. Next comes Doug Moe (13.4), Lee Shaffer (13.4), Harvey Salz (11.4) and Dick Wepley (10.9). RICHTER LEADS WOLFPACK State is led by the number one scorer and rebounder in the ACC, big John Richter. Richter is aver aging 16.9 points per game, fol lowed by little Lou Pucillo at 14.4. George Stepanovich, Bob MacGil- lvary and Dan Englehardt round out , the Pack's starting five. Although much strategy was discussed before the last Carolina-State game, a sellout at Rey nolds Coliseum, the game de veloped into the traditional Tar Heel-Pack game complete with fast breaking. Since that game, Carolina's sparkling soph duo of Larese and Moe have each had a big night. Larese dumped in 32 against Maryland and Moe pumped through 32 against Duke. State's latest big scorer is relia ble rebounder Stepanovich, who hit his season high of 20 against Maryland Saturday. Salary Raises For Faculty Are One-Fifth Amount Asked By NEIL MURPHY Carolina professors and instruc tors will receive the raises request ed for them by the administration if the recommendations of ihe Ad visory Budget Commission are fol lowed. Of a requested $694,862 for facul ty salary adjustments and increas es only $147,724 was left by the advisory budget commission for the years 1959-60. President William Friday said, "The overall increase in salaries seems to be about two per cent over present appropriations. We have requested a hearing before the joint appropriations committee and at that time we shall stress the great urgency of increasing the appropriation for faculty sala ries, pointing out that this has our number one priority in the 'B' budget." Presently the University operat es spending $5,046,537 for academ ic salaries. This does not include the Division of Health Affairs. The University has asked for $5,221,072; but $5,069,615 was re commended for 1959-60. For 1960- 61 the University asked for $5,338, 322; but $5,162,539 was recommend ed. The . Advisory Budget Com mission recommended less in 1960 61 than the University said was the minimum necessary to maintain UNC a its present level in 1959-60. These salary increases can be compared to a 2.7 per cent increase in the cost of living increase from December of 1957 until December of 1953. In the 'B' or improvements bud get the University asked for $52, 300 for each of the next two years WASHINGTON W - American satellite carrying a min iature, mechanical weather observ er flashed into orbit around the earth yesterday. The basketball-sized satellite is equipped to check up and report back on the earth's cloud cover and help spot storm clouds or torna does. The satellite, Vanguard U, itself may whirl on through space for years or even centuries. But the batteries for its weather eyes a pair of photoelectric cells can operate continuously for only a fortnight. And at first it may take two weeks to process the information relayed back to earthbound scien tist by the 20-Inch, 21 -pound globe. STRIDE FORWARD Yet the launching of the satel lites was an epochal stride toward using man-made moons to help improve short and long-range weather forecasts. Still farther in the future is a possibility that satellites may help humans with the control of weather.

Within the Orientation Commit tee, these special positions are open: men's coordinator, women's coordinator. Nursing School coor dinator, Pharmacy School coordin ator, secretary and treasurer. Orientation Chairman Parker said Tuesday the committee is be ing elected earlier this year so that the group may be able to prepare for an orientation program that will appeal to more individual students. To achieve this, Parker has several specific plans in mind: to conduct a more thorough train ing program for orientation coun selors, to have continued the counselor-new student relationship past the one week of orientation and to include the men's dormitory gradu ate counselors as an effort to in crease the graduate counselors significance to new students throughout the year. When students come for inter views next week, Parker has of fered this advice: "They should have ideas about what they would add to the orientation program and be willing to give many hours of work." Between five and seven members of the Orientation Committee will be coeds, Parker said.
