Face Reality Says Gray, Calls For Realism In Govt. Charlie Gray, candidate for pres ident of the student body, said Wednesday he would follow a "mod erate" policy if elected president. Gray is running for that office In the April 7 elections on the Univer sity Party ticket. He said he believed it important that students know his philosophy toward student government because they "will be better able to under stand my approach to the present issues and those which will arise." The moderate policy he expressed i 1 intrinsic with his belief in a real istic, yet progressive, student gov ei nment. Ills philosophy will enable him in practice to "face the fact that noth ing is perfect and approach all prob lems with the realization that we live in a practical world and not in a perfect Utopian society. Too of ten students approach issues in a way that on the surface appear good, but from tha practical side are usually impossible." Gray defended his moderate view point by saying, "I think on this campus an extreme liberal or an ex treme conservative would have many harmful effects. I stand as a moderate, neither leaning to the right nor the left." Wild crusades or untimely ac tions that tend to cast harsh criti cisms on an innocent student body do not conform to the UP candi date's moderate stand. "The old saying of 'thinking twice before act ing once' would be a good slogan for all student leaders," Gray said. With a moderate, realistic pro gram, Gray said he hopes to re turn student government to the students. He cited "unrealistic and sometimes unpopular issues which have occurred in the past" as hav ing increased student apathy to the alarming point. "The unfortunate political system on this campus has added coal to the fire of apathy nlus causing a psychological barrier to rise up be tween different parts of the cam pus," he said. "Only when student government can appeal to all students and only when the campus is again united will student government achieve the pos ition it rightly deserves." Gray said he would unify the cam pus break down ail barriers be tween fraternity and non-fraternity men and take politics from its pro fessional existence and return it to the students. Talking further on political par ties. Gray said the parties should represent beliefs, not places of res idence. The presidential candidate pledged that, if elected, he would represent the views of the "true" Carolina student. He also said that his ad ministration would promote prog ress in all areas through an under standing of the problems of all seg ments of campus. a replacement may be made.

Free Path Open To Free City BERLIN UP) Russia and Com munist East Germany promised Wednesday they would keep the road open between WTest Berlin and the outside world if West Berlin be comes a free city. But they indicated the price they would demand for such guarantees would be western diplomatic recog nition of the satellite East German regime. That recognition has long been sought by the Communists and refused by the West. The latest word on the Berlin is sue came in a communique issued by the East German government as Soviet Premier Khrushchev ended a visit to East Germany. The communique also again urged a quick summoning of a summit conference to ease international ten sion. It said a summit meeting should be convened in addition to a foreign ministers parley. In a note to the western powers March 2, the Soviet Union plumped for a summit conference but said at the same time Moscow would be agreeable to a meeting of foreign ministers if it was not possible to set up a summit session. Wednes day's communique called for both. (In Washington, a spokesman said the State Department had no com ment on the Soviet-East German de claration. Privately officials said there was nothing new in the offer to guarantee access to West Berlin once it became a free city. The of fer is based on the completely un- acccpt&ble condition ' that the west ern allies would give up their rights in Berlin, these officials said.) On the Communist demand for making isolated West Berlin a free time these applications are returned city, the communique said princi women have been requested to sign pies of the legal statute were dis for scheduled five-minute interviews. cussed.

The nine-plank University Party platform takes a stand on issues from The Daily Tar Heel editor selection to the National Student As sociation. ,The platform, which was released Wednesday by UP Chairman John Minter, covers the usual areas of dormitories, fraternities and the judicial system. - - On the matter of a new student union, the platform states that the UP is in favor Of immediate acquisi tion of a new building, and, if need be, through a partial self-liquidation plan. , The UP is advocating a "more flexible policy toward women's dormitory regulations." The party would promote the modification of some regulations not involving the Honor Code or Campus Code. Spe cifically, the UP will promote a system of collective late minute viol ations in dormitory and sorority houses and a lowering of dormitory fines. The platform also calls for the redistricting of Legislature seats and refers to the inequality of the number of seats in Town Men's IV as compared with the interest of students in that district. The UP through increased support to the IDC "would work toward an enlargement of the dormitory social program, expansion of the dorm visiting agreement program, the addition of social and physical facil ities in dormitories and increased dormitory services, such as janitor ial services and more and better vending machines." The election of The Daily Tar Heel editor should be removed from partisan politics, the platform states - Reference to the deferred rush is sue is made in the platform state ment that fraternities and sororities are private organizations that should be allowed to make any i changes in rush without outside in fluence. On the National Student Associa tion issue, the platform calls for an investigation of the USNSA, its acti vities on this campus and the meth od of selection of representatives from UNC to national congresses and conferences. This investigation Is being urged because the UP "is not convinced that the National Student Association on this campus is not representative of the students here." The University Party is taking a stand toward retention of separate judicial bodies, as expressed in their platform. The final plank in the party plat form states that the UP will work toward getting reasonably priced . date tickets for all athletic contests.
