The Committee's purpose, as described by Speaker Bob Spear man, is to study proposals for improving education and eco nomic conditions in the Chapel Hill area. (See story, page one). April 14 was officially declared the date for spring elections, end ing a long and partisan battle in the Legislature. A compromise on the date was reached by party leaders and representatives of interested or ganizations last Tuesday. A lengthy bill covering the jur isdiction and procedures of the Interfraternity Court was passed, including changes in the penal ties system. In the wake of criticism from students over the recently enact ed boycott resolution. Student Party Floor Leader Phil Baddour rose to read to the body a state ment by Russell Kirk, "a noted Symposium Seminars Planned Seminars and discussion groups planned for the 1964 Carolina Symposium will foe beaded by Emily Klyce, Vance Barron and Bill Graham. Discussion groups relating to Symposium questions and topics suggested by this year's Sym posium title, "Arms and the Ulan," will be held beginning March 12. These groups will be field ia the women's --residence oau social rooms in conjunction 1 tories and will be led by inter ested professors. At the same time the sororities and fraterni ties will hold similar after-dinner seminars. Later, during the Symposium week this spring, classroom seminars will be held in the de partments and schools of the University. In addition, several departments are sponsoring their own speakers. "Seminars and discussion groups give the alert and con cerned students a chance to ex press their opinions as well as hear others express theirs. They provide an ideal way to make both new friends and enemies," said Harry DeLung and Virginia Carnes, co-publicity chairmen. .v, Guitarists Alan JSeely ing Bi .: 2 f . t s.i ...... ;:.' TV , I Thursday conservative writer and analyst." The statement read, "What America needs is better leader ship in politics instead of what it is getting a reflection of the public will. If leaders think sole ly of the image they made then they aren't leaders at all. They are seeing what the public wants and then doing it at the right time." Legislature also passed a bill appropriating $200 from the gen eral surplus to VVUNC radio for the purchase of needed equip ment. The principal dissenter to the bill was Arthur Hays (SP), who questioned the advisability of setting a precedent in this area. A resolution urging the Univer sity Traffic Safety Committee to consider safety measures for the road leading from the Morehead Bell Tower to the Craige-Ehring- haus area was passed after much debate. The bill originally suggested the Committee have asphalt humps placed in the road. Bill Straughn (SP), told the body his sleep was disturbed by "horns, mufflers, and the anguished screams of students being run down by speeding motorists." Straughn supported the place ment of humps in the road and recommended that signs be plac ed before them labeled "hump ahead." Borden Parker (UP) moved that the passage calling for the humps be removed. It was re moved by a vote of 17-15. Hays told the body afterwards, "Only a body such as this could spend twenty minutes debating humps." An amendment calling for bet ter lighting on the road was pass ed. In- another action by the Legis lature, a bill calling for the Fac ulty Council and the Faculty Committee on the Calendar to consider the establishment of a reading day before final exams was passed. RESERVE ROOMS NOW Room reservations for next fall should be made before April 1, director of housing James Wads worth said yesterday. "If a student wishes to re serve the same room he is in now, IJe will have to do so by April 1," Wadsworth said. "If he doesn't he stands a chance of not getting a room at all." A $10 deposit is required when the rooms are reserved. er Featnrec : :: .vj-:-: 4 4 4 And Scott Ackerman iSNl s ' -f ' - y ' .,;. y--'--' . :...; ..

S. officials. ; His charges were promptly de- ; nounced as a "complete false- ' hood." The bearded leader leveled the accusations while participating in a hero's welcome for the 29 j Cuban fishermen who were jailed !. at Key West for poaching in Florida waters. The captains of the four boats involved in the poaching were fined a total of $2,000 and their fish catch was confiscated. During the dockside welcome the fishermen went before tele vision cameras and microphones to charge that while they were in a Key West jail U. S. officials indulged in wholesale thievery. "Our clothing, eating utensils and Cuban flag were stolen and the motors of our ships were burned out," they charged. Two Innocent, One Guilty A student was placed on def inite probation and two others were found innocent of a cheat ing charge . in Men's Council trials Thursday night. In the first case a student was charged with assaulting another student, a Campus Code viola tion, and stealing the other stu dent's watch, an Honor Code vio lation. He was found guilty of the as sault charge. The defendant said he had been drinking and thought he had heard the other student shout an insult. - He started a fight with him. The assaulted student said he had put his watch down during the fight and then couldn't find it afterwards. The Council found the defend ant innocent of the stealing charge because of lack of evi dence. There were three other men at the scene who might have taken the watch.

"I'll be damned if we're going to hand over that shrimp boat now," said Castro in a Havana broadcast monitored here. The boat to which he referred was stolen by Deny Lee Kirby, a 22-year-old Vallejo, Calif., man who sailed it to Cuba claiming he was "tired of the American way of life." The boat's owner, Charles H. Griffin Jr. of Thunderbolt, Ga., was preparing to leave Key West for the Cuban capital to pick up the 60-foot vessel, the "Johnny Reb," when Castro unleashed his charges. r i ! v4f 4' ( The pianistics of the keyboard duo, Ferrante and Teicher, will be demonstrated to local concert-goers on Monday, Feb. 24, when the recording stars, whose versions of "Exodus," "The Apartment," and "Tonight" sold well over three million records, bring their show, "The Many Moods ol Ferrante and Teicher" to Memorial Hall at 8:00 p.m., as a part of the GM series. fessionh.

The Job Place ment Bureau said that the stu dent turnout for interviews is considerably lower than last year. On-campus interviews have been scheduled by the Bureau since last October and will con tinue through April.

Hanson, is working on some of the com plex mathematical problems in missile guidance which must be solved if the Saturn project is to be successful. The Saturn rocket, largest in America's repertoire, repre sents a very important phase of the long range space program. Several rockets have already been sent up. The UNC chapter of Alpha cited work at other schools, not ably Salem College. Spearman appointed legislat ors Brick Oettinger, Diana Wel lons and John Harmon to serve on the committee. Oettinger will serve as chairman. Spearman's complete state ment: "It is the opinion of the Speak er that the current pressing con troversy over racial demonstra tions and segregated establish ments has obscured some of the more important long-term prob lems. "The real solutions to many of the pressing problems which face the Chapel Hill and University Community today lie in the areas of educational improvement, bet ter economic opportunities and rising living standards. Students and Student Governments both at Carolina and elsewhere have long been active in this type of activity. "Recent work at Salem College is especially notable, where stu dents have initiated a special tu torial project in the Winston-Salem community. "Therefore, I am appointing a special legislative committee, to be called The Community Wel fare Committee, to investigate the possibility of such a student project in the Chapel Hill com munity. This committee will ba directed to report on similar pro jects at other schools, to discuss possible projects with . town of ficials, local pastors and welfare workers and to make specific recommendations for action both, to the Executive and to the Stu dent Legislature." the median wage was $325. Girls who majored in math ematics had the highest wages between $450 and $594. Science majors had the second highest salaries $300 to $450. A large majority of the other jobs taken by last year's senior girls were in personnel work, retailing, banking, teaching, social work and journalism.
