Many au- Committee Rules Threaten Powell WASHINGTON (AP) A r.angy ex - paratrooper stands a cood chance of cutting down Adam Clayton Powell as a po wer in Congress. From the rear ranks of the House Education and Labor heads, Rep. Sam Gibbons, D- Fla., has stepped forward to challenge the New York Demo- crat's leadership by seeking to establish new committee nil- es. "I think most of the com mittee members are with ime," Gibbons said today. If .he is right, Powell would be ;left with the title and the gav el of chairman, but little crats in seniority, as subcom mittee chairmen, would wield -the power. A vote on Gibbons' plan is scheduled for next Thursday. Only a second - termer, .Gibbons is far down the sen iority list and would get none of the powers that would be wrested from Powell by a sue- cessful coup. , After 14 years in politics Gib bons still uses idealistic words like integrity, responsibility and duty without embarrass ment. "This is not a personal fight" he said, "it goes deeper. Powell has rbused the ii ... power me commmee gave him. How can we expect the people to have respect for congress if we don't try to clean up our own house?" . It's not a new fight, either.

I don't see how the doctor could have made a mistake." Born of sharecropper par ents in South Carolina's Pied mont section, Marty had un developed genitals. From birth until he was one month short of his 20th birthday, Marty was never examined by a physician. The Marty, or "Martha", hoping to make enough money to leave home and begin a new life, applied for a job and was examined by the company physician. "I broke down and told the doctor about my life," Marty wrote the minister.

Broadway, St Louis, Missouri 63125 An equal opportunity employer Discrimination Clauses Out For Greeks All Carolina fraternities and sororities have removed the discriminatory clauses regard ing membership as of this fall, according to the Deans of Men and Women. Sigma Nu fraternity was the last to do so; in June of this year it waivered the national clause pertaining to member ship. The national Sigma Nu fraternity had voted earlier this year to retain the dis criminatory clause. The fraternities and soror ities have had a year and a half to get rid of the dis criminatory clauses. On March 6, 1965, the Faculty Council on Fraternities anjd Sorori ties voted unanimously to or der the removal of all dis criminatory clauses by Sep tember 1, 1966. This decision came after nearly a year of controversy here over the matter of dis crimination by the Greeks. An incident involving dero gatory remarks directed at a visiting Liberian student b y men at a fraternity house here set the stage for the de ciding, battle. The incident was followed by demonstrations and rallies involving CORE, the NAACP and the Free Speech Move ment. The relevance of the 1964 Civil Rights Act was in jected into the controversy, which culminated in the rul ing by the Faculty Council. X Eastward tablished by action of the Board of Trustees Sept. 29, 1947 by the Knapp Foundation with the matching funds pro vided by the state. Dr. Al F. Chestnut, Direc tor, of the Institute which has a faculty of seven, was in Chapel Hill yesterday confer ring with University officials about the plans for the pro posed new building for the In stitute. Dr. Chestnut said, "The. pur pose of the Institute is to en daavor through scientific re search to arrive at a better understanding of the complex problems of marine sciences." At the present time, the In stitute is working under crowded conditions and is able to accept only six to eight graduate students at a time from more than 50 qualified applicants every year. The research of the Insti tute is carried on mostly with the in-shore areas of the North Carolina coast with the aid of the University's 55-foot boat. All the facilities are made available to the faculty and students of the University with research interests in ma rine biology, physical and chemical oceanography and related fields. Each of the Institute's staff specializes in long - term studies of the physical, chem ical and biological condi tions and their influence upon life histories and behavior of various species of marine life. An example of the valuable work that has been Hone by the Institute is the oyster re habilitation and growing proj ect with which Dr. Chestnut has been working for years. It has been learned that oysters can be taken out of a polluted area and transport ed to a certified area where they will become certified aft er 15 days. Every year this is done and oyster production in North Carolina has increased greatly over the past several years because of it.

The governor urged Tar Heels to "join in a crusade to put down disorders and riots of every kind.',' "While we seek social jus tice for all our people and strive always to improve our laws, let us remember that there will be no true progress unless peace and order pre vails," he said. In his address, carried by television and radio, Moore told the audience he was dis turbed by "a growing disre gard and disrespect of the law in our state.
