This was Forrest Read's in troduction to the second meet ing honors, program; Diane Three undergraduate poets read their work Russel Banks, senior in creative writ ing honors jrogram: Diane Warman, junior journalism major; and Robert Jackson, junior in English and French. ' Banks, editor of Little Bo lero, a literary magazine to be published in Decmeber, read eight poems. One, "De parting From Albania" re created meeting an old friend after long absence, and anoth er, "Insomniac," the familiar trials of a late - night pre ambulator. "A Fable" told the sad tale of a casanova cat on the losing end. He has been published in the Carolina Quarterly. Diane Warman, a transfer from Brevard, read two poems about very different ladies, "Madonna of the Redened Robe" and "Woman of the Shadows", the last a ballad of love, revenge, and death. She said 'she is still experi menting with different forms." Jackson, part - time report er for the Durham Herald, has had work publshed in the Young Writer at Chapel Hill.

An experimental problem concerning the University will be given to the combination student - faculty groups to see what type of solution they can find. This type of experiment will demonstrate how much com bined - effort committees will be able to work in the future concerning such University functions as acquisition of land, new buildings and the hiring and firing of faculty and staff.

Prof Says Maddox Win Hurts Southern Politics By DON CAMPBELL DTH Staff Writer Segregationist Lester Mad dox's Democratic nomination for governor is "a major blow to Georgia Politics," a lead ing authority on Southern poli tids said Thursday. Donald R. Matthews, UNC political science professor, was asked in an interview to analyze the Maddox victory and the factors leading to it. "Primarily," he said, "I suppose the victory was a re sult of anti - Negro sentiment that was always there and was brought to th2 forefront by riots and the Black Power movement. Also for the first time small towns in Georgia are facing school desegregation, because-of the threat of with drawal of federal education funds. "Apparently, a considerable number of people voted for Maddox to insure that the Re publican candidate, Calloway, would be opposed by Maddox rather than Arnell, whom they considered would be harder for Calloway to beat." Matthews said that Arnell, whom Maddox defeated in a runoff primary, "actually was not too effective as a cam paigner." "He didn't have the person al appeal that he had ten years ago." However, Matthews said he deplored the term "white backlash," used to describe the Maddox victory. The term is misleading in the South, he said, where the white peoples' opinions on ra cial matters have changed es sentially very liittle. It is more pertinent to the situation in th2 North, he said, where whites are being con fronted with new Negro de mands and are reacting in a backlash manner. "I used to think Georgia was progressing politically, economically, and academical ly faster than other Southern states," Matthews continued, V i -- J& ., X ".r U - iiMt ft - - i' 3 1 4r ; , THE AIR'S getting just a tad nippy now and Polk Place is becoming a sea of alpaca and cashmere. There are still a few shirtsleeves around, though, but you don't usually find them in the shade. (DTH Photo by Jock Lauterer) "but this has been a major blow to what ever progress they have made." Asked how he thought the November race between, Cal loway, a Goldwater Republi can, and Maddox would come out, Matthews said, "I would bet that Calloway will win. He'll be hard to beat on the race issue." "If Calloway wins," he ex plained, "It will be for all kinds of reasons. "For one thing Republican growth in Georgia has been stimulated by the Civil Rights position held by the national democratic party. Also there will be some protest votes against Maddox among Callo way's supporters. '"In fact," he said, "Callo way must hope for moder ate Democrat support." If Calloway is elected, he will be the first Republican go vernor in Georgia in a cen tury. What would this do to the structure of state govern ment, Matthews was asked. "What it will do to the state Government structure is hard to say. It could result in fairly messy legislative sessions. "I wouldn't anticipate that Calloway would be able to do so much." However, he said, a Repub lican governorship would have long range effects on state politics. And what would generate a win for Maddox? "If Maddox wins," Matthews said, "it will be a result of protests by several different groups for several different reasons." "Many people will vote for him in protests against the national Democratic party, in protest against the Republican party in Georgia and in pro test against the Negro." "If Maddox does wn," he added, 'he better think about the federal school funds he is campaigning against. The lo cal schools make the decision on turning down the funds not the governor's office." It i I j i i How do the recently fran chised Negroes fit into the Georgia picture? "As long as whites can be held together by race preju dice," Matthews said, "the Negro vote isn't going to be very important. Whites con trol all levers of power in Georgia, including a majority in voting strength.

Gardner Asks Student Help For Politics Jim Gardner, Republican candidate for the Fourth Dis trict Congressional seat, made two campaign speeches in Chapel Hill yesterday, label ing his opponent as a "rubber stamp" Congressman. , Speaking before a supper meeting of the Young Repub lican dub, Gardner emphasi zed the need for students to take a part in creating a two party system for North Carol ina. - At a meeting of the Chapel Hill Jaycees later in the even ing, Gardner outlined the basic issues of his campaign. He stated that Congressman Harold Cooley, his opponent, bas gone along loo many times with the Johnson-Humphrey administration. "In a survey taken in this district, the people look with disfavor on a majority of bills passed by the administration," Gardner said. "In spite of this, my opponent has voted in fa vor of 72 per cent of these bills." Gardner went on to attack the inflationary policies of the Johnson administration "President Johnson expects the American housewife to cut down on her spending, but he hasn't done much to cut the fat off federal programs." In a third campaign issue, Gardner criticized a growing national trend toward lawless ness. This attitude of break ing the law if you don't agree with it has got to be stopped," he said. "I think that the Viet Nam war is definitely a campaign issue," said Gardner. "This administration is not doing - nearly enough to end the war - and I don't mean with nucl ear weapons either. , "I suggest that the United States impose an economic quarantine on North Viet Nam, much like the Cuban blocade of 1962. The only difference is that this time we would be stopping our allies instead of the Russians." Pointing out that the United States has given 15 billion dol lars in foreign aid to Britain and France since the close of World War II, Gardner stated that the United States should do more to stop these coun tries from trading with North Viet Nam. Spiders r J&jfr Cae Gettill .Ready For Court GREENSBORO (AP) Attorneys and court officials will begin today to whip North Carolina's speaker ban law suit into shape for trial. The mass of evidence submitted in the federal court suit which challenges the validity of the Speaker Ban Law, will be reviewed before Judge Edwin M. Stanley and attorneys for the state and the plaintiffs. The suit was filed earlier this year against the University of North Caro lina and its chancellor, Dr, J. Carlyle Freeman Predicts Record Agricultural Production Secretary of Agriculture Or ville Freeman predicted yes terday North Carolina farmers will pour some $1.5 billion in to the state's economy this year. Addressing a Young Demo cratic Club rally in Memorial Hall, Freeman based his out look on the latest crop pro duction reports and cash mar keting figures. He said the $1.5 billion pro duction figure is the highest in the state's history. "This record income," the secretary, said, "is possible be cause of another record passage of major farm legis lation during each of the past six years. The result of the legislation is the most dra matic farm income break through in the history of agri culture." Freeman appeared in Chap el Hill on behalf of veteran congressman Harold Copley, chairman of the House Agri culture Committee who is seeking re-election in the Fourth District. Freeman spoke in Raleigh earlier in the day to the state conference of the Agriculture Stabilization and Conservation Service. Housewives of the 4th Dis trict called off their plans to picket in protest to high feed prices, while freeman spoke in Raleigh.
