P rofs Interested In Textile Strike A number of UNC political science professors Friday an nounced plans to "meet with both sides" of the Cone Mills Textile Workers Union of America dispute in Greens boro, and possibly to partici pate directly in strike pro ceedings. Dr. Alden Lind, assistant professor of political science, said Friday several faculty members had expressed inter est in the dispute and had sent a letter Friday to officials of Cone Mills, asking to meet with them as soon as possible. "My position right now is not clear," Lind told The Daily Tar Heel. "We would like to meet with both sides before we take any action." Lind said he had already talked with Peter Brandon, un ion organizer, when Brandon Changes Suggested In Chase By JIM SADLER DTH Staff Writer A Tine Room type facility offering hot foods, snacks, and a juke box may soon be in op eration in Chase Cafeteria dur ing the evening hours. George Prillaman, director of the University food service, said Friday that serving hours would probably be between 7 p.m. and midnight. Foods of fered would include pizzas, spaghetti, hot sandwiches, sa lads, and desserts. The idea of a facility of this type was suggested by a group of students headed by John Ellis, governor of Mor rison Residence College. "This suggestion has real merit," Prillaman said. "T h e time is approaching when this type of service will desperate ly be needed on South Cam pus." Extensive use of the down stairs lounges is also envision ed. Prillaman, instrumental in the planning and construction of Chase Cafeteria, said that only 40 per cent of the possi able capacity of Chase Hall is now being used. "We intend to bring the us age of the cafeteria up to about 90 per cent of its total capacity," he said. Future plans include a refe rence library in the West :Lounge which would act as a subsidiary of the main library. Most of the books would be reference materials similar to those found in the Undergrad uate Library. , "Our idea is to project Chase Hall as the focal point of the entire South Campus," Prillaman said. "One idea suggested is the installation of a 25-inch color television in one of the down . stairs lounges. Funds for the television, and possibly the juke box, would be provided by the residence colleges," he said. The last half of March has been set as a tentative target date. Professional Fraternities Plan Rush The Professional Inter fraternity Council announc es Spring Rush which will be held Monday through Wednesday from 7:30 to 9:30. Each of the four profes sional fraternities has a house and therefore, en joys the social as well as the professional opportuni ties available to them.

He would not cite the spe cific number of professors who signed the letter, but in dicated at least four mem bers of the political science faculty (and possibly addition al members of other faculties) were "interested." "It depends on how many of us can spare the time to go to Greensboro," Lind said. A spokesman for the cam pus group supporting the workers said that 15 more students have signed up to make the trip to Greensboro Sunday night. They will at tend . the strike-vote meeting and will picket with the work ers if a strike is called. This brings to 35 the total number of students from this campus who plan to partici pate in picketing.

DTH Photo by Jock Lauterer Co-eds Can't Agree On Drafting By MIRIAM HENKEL Special to the DTH Women disagree with each other more than they like to admit. And University of North Carolina co-eds are typical. When asked if they think women should - be drafted in event of . a national crisis, UNC co-eds couldn't reach a consensus. Donna Hartman, fifth year pharmacy, student from Mt. Airy, feels that women could be drafted to do desk work or medical type jobs. "I don't think they should be out there carrying guns or chasing after the soldiers with a first-aid Javits Says Poverty War To Continue From The Associated Press Sen. Jacob Javits, R-N. Y., who will speak here on Mon day, told a group of VISTA volunteers in New York's Har lem that the 90th Congress "will not lay down the war on poverty, I don't care how ' conservative it is." Javits said the war on pov erty is too deeply ingrained in American public life to be dropped. He said he expects Congress to change the draft laws, hopefully broaden ing areas of service to in clude vista and the peace corps. "People say the congress is more conservative," Javits told about 50 VISTA volunteers and staff members in the base ment of a church in the city's Spanish Harlem section. "I have already had a chance to look it over. . . .1 believe the (poverty)) prog ram will carry on, will have important appropriations. It will continue in the multi -hundred million dollar class." The VISTA staff gave Javits a pin identical to the ones re ceived by the eight young men graduating from their eight week training program today. Among the eight were Lau rence Rockefeller, 22 - year -old nephew of Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York and Tweed Roosevelt, 24, great grandson of President Theo dore Roosevelt. Each will live on $50 a month plus room and board plus $2.50 pocket money a day as they work their assigned blocks in Manhattan and Brooklyn try ing to encourage slum resi dents to help themselves.

"In event of serious national crisis, I don't think women should be drafted. It is going to take every "bit of manpow er in the field. It will be ne cessary for women to work in the factories, for example, as they did in the last war," she says. Bonnie Tucker, a Winston -Salem junior majoring in ele mentary education, says, "It depends on whether the wom en have families or not. If they have children, their place is definitely in the home. If they don't, it's just as much their responsibility as an unattach ed male's " "Women with typical emo tions wouldn't be worth any thing. I don't think they should be drafted," says Treva Mit chell, senior journalism ma jor from Spring Hope. "The on ly women who could conceiv ably be drafted would be the very young, just out of school. Also, I would feel highly dis criminated against since none of my (female) ancestors have had to serve." "Women could do a lot of organizational and civil de fense work if they were draft ed, because they have this kind of experience from the home," says Anne Belcher, se ior nursing student from Kin ston. "They could also take over factory and computer work. I think they should be drafted, especially in my line of work." Ann Mueller of Fort Bragg, a senior German major, feels that women shouldn't be draft ed, especially in peacetime. "Even in wartime military ser vice for women ought to be voluntary and ought to be in fields like hospital work." Women would feel more a part of things if they were drafted," says Martha Brook, junior psychology major from Atlanta, Ga. "During World War II women worked in air plane factories. If there are positions women could fill, I don't think it would be a bad idea." Sandy Houck of Raleigh, a junior education major, says, "Women should definitely not be drafted. More than any time, in time of war a wom an's place is in the home. There is always a rash of mar riages just before a war. A woman should be there to maintain her home instead of out fighting." Women Legislator Quits Jobs In Protest By LYTT STAMPS DTH Staff Writer Student Body President Bob Powell said Friday he would welcome a referendum or a poll of students to determine how they feel on Vietnam and his signing letters to the Pres ident and the Secretary of State. "A referendum could start a discussion which would be tremendously healthy for the campus," he said. A referendum to determine student opinion on the Vietnam question was proposed Thurs day night by Dick Levy -and George Krichbaum in Student Legislature. Powell said he would support whatever method the legisla tors want to use to determine student opinion. He pointed out that a refer endum might be cumbersome and would cost from $50 to $S0 to conduct. "The poll has the advantage of being more specific," he said. "It is a series of ques tions. The referendum re quires yes or no type an swers." One member of Powell's ad ministration has already con ducted his own poll. Steve Jolly, a legislator from the Upper Quad, an nounced Friday he was re signingg his posts in the exec utive department - of student government "because of the manner Powell handled the situation'.' "I feel my first obligation is number of students in my dis trict, and they do not approve of his conduct," Jolly said. Jolly was chairman of the residence hall improvements committee, and a member of the residence college commis sion and the budget commit tee. He had helped draft a large part of the legislation Powell presented to Legisla ture. Jolly said he felt a con flict of loyalties between his duties to the president and to Upper Quad. clarification of the policies for to my district," Jolly said. Powell said his talks with those who opposed his signing the letter led him to believe that "too many implications have been drawn from the let ter that aren't there." He pointed to the New York Times' description of the let ter as being a "restrained and respectful" report of senti ment. "I am convinced since the first letter that a majority basically support our commit ments in southeast Asia," Powell said. "But I feel there is a growing percentage hav ing difficulty understanding and fully supporting all as pects of our policy." BOB POWELL . . . Approves Poll If a referendum or poll were held, Powell said he felt "no more than 30 percent would express disaffection with the Vietnam policy." "I feel though, that a SO per cent vote while not a ma jority would indicate the ' growing mood we expressed to the President in the letter," Powell said. "I feel it is both a privilege and a duty for us to seek a clarification of th epolicies for which we may have to die. We wanted to discuss the ques tions in a spirit of mutual searching for new possibil ities," he added. ""
