He was chairman of the pro jects committee at the Key Club convention in New York City and was a delegate to the National Student Council Con vention in Lexington, Ky. The convention was keynot ed by Tom Manly who attack ed the "failure of the last Student Government adminis tration." "It is our responsibility to look and see what is going on in Student Government," Manly said. "I have looked and all I see us a lack of leadership a childlike fear of leadership," he told his party. Manly did not mention any names but called the last Stu dent Government administra tion "disasterous." "I am weary of the leader ship of the last adminis tration," he said. Construction Hoists New Hinton -jr. ' . . -w f At Hinton Police Brutality? Weekly Radio Reports Made By State Affairs Committee By LYTT STAMPS DTH Staff Writer Radio listeners in North Ca rolina can now learn about the' University thanks to a series of weekly programs being pro duced through the State Af fairs Committee. The programs, which contin ue a series begun last year, are part of the overall plan 'to inform the state of what is happening on the Chapel Hill campus. The program this year is nearly doubled in scope from last year's. Ernest Wichard, who is di rector of Student Government's Department of External Af fairs, expects about 30 stations to carry the programs this year. Last year, there were only 15 stations giving the pro gram. Whichard said there will be 30 programs, each 10 minutes B?y JOCK LAUTERER DTH Staff Writer Rising abruptly above the Loblolly pines south of Ehringhaus there sprouts a new concrete and brick mushroom. The startling profile of Hinton James Residence Hall loomed over the horizon almost immediately aft er construction began. June 9 was the opening date for work. Now, the 10 floors are up and the building is a honeycomb of activity. "We're headin' right for the top," declared a stubbled-faced foreman in the din of crashing noise that surrounds the anthill that will be James hall.

Subjects to be covered on the programs will include any event of interest to radio lis teners. Whichard hopes to keep pol itical parties and campus fac tions out of the series, but says iie will not steer away from controversy. The 15 programs produced last year include an interview with Danny Talbott, a pro gram on student government, another on the blood drive, an interview with Chancellor Sit terson and programs on Kenan professors and the Honors Pro gram here. Whichard said all the com ments he heard on the pro gram last year were most com plementary. The program is operated, run and financed entirely by students. Floor With Morrison In ' ' A S Last year, it cost $1,500 with stations donating air time. Whichard expects this year's program to cost $2445 and has asked Student Legislature to appropriatethe amount. The money is used to pay for tape, recording the pro grams and duplicating them. The first program was re leased for broadcast -this week. It is an interview with Editor Fred Thomas on how The Daily Tar Heel operates and another interview with Student Body Vice President Bill Purdy on the "loyal op position." Most stations in the Chapel Hill area are carrying the pro gram, Whichard said, but he does not yet know the time they will carry it. He expects to have a com plete schedule of stations in the state running the program and the schedule in a few days. He craned his crooked neck back to allow his eyes to wander up the sun-brightened frame to the top level where silhouettes of workmen creeped about like circus acrobats in the sky of the bigtop. From his mobile office, smiling Project Superin tendent Hugh Medlin doffed his gold hard hat and leaned on his elbows on a blue print. "We're a month ahead of schedule," he said, "The weather has been good to us." Towering James was scaled down to 10 stories, the same size as brother Morrison that lies across the road past dwarfed Chase Cafeteria. The new hall will hold 1,009 men by next Fall. Target completion date is set for August 17. See Hinton On Page 6 Background 'Misinterpreted Assignment eacWms Diatie By BILL AMLOXG DTH News Editor A graduate instructor Tues day was reassigned to duties other than teaching because of the furor created by a "mis interpreted" theme assign ment dealing with the poem "To His Coy Mistress." Chancellor J. Carlyle Sit terson announced the reassign ment of Michael Paull in a prepared statement, saving Coastal Peru Hit By Savage Quake LIMA, Peru, (AP) Rescue teams searched wreckage in Lima and coastal towns and cities yesterday after Peru's most savage earthquake in 26 years. By unofficial count, 82 to 87 were killed and 1,000 injured. The State Department in Washington said unconfirmed American estimates put the number of Peruvian dead at 125. No Americans were killed or injured. The rolling quake yesterday leveled homes and buildings in this capital, the nearby port city of Callao and the neigh boring towns of Huacho and Huaura, about 45 miles north of Lima. The latter two towns appeared hardest hit. Tidal wave alerts had been put out after the quake, and the alarm spread to Honolulu, but no large seismic waves resulted. In the old Spanish section of Rimac in Lima, many two story houses dating to the 1700s crumbled under the im pact. The death figure in Lima was given as 19. In Callao, police said 95 buildings were destroyed. The roof of the centuries old church of Matriz collapsed, but no bodies had been found in the church. Police said 32 died in Callao. In the Lima suburb of Chor- James Photos by Lauterer raetor 4 1 "the normal teacher - student learning relationship has been seriously disturbed by these events." The furor arose when WRAL-TV reported Monday night that Paull, a 24-year-old Ph.D. candidate and editor of the Carolina Quarterly, assign ed his freshman English class a theme on seduction The station said that one person in the class considered rilos and in Puento Piedra and Molina, a few miles from the capital, damage was heavy. Casualty reports from these areas were incomplete. Nor were there complete casulaty reports from Haucho and Barranca, 12 miles far ther north. The reports said 85 per cent of houses and buildings were destroyed in Huaura and 60 percent in Haucho. The number of homeless 'could not be calculated. President Fernando Bel-aunde-Terry, in a message to the country, said the govern ment will "spare no effort to help all through this trial." Scientists at the National Geophysics Institute said the quake hit 7.6 on the Richter scale. They estimated " the epicenter was off the coast north of Lima. An uneasy calm held the Lima area as workers and res cuers sought more victims in tumbled houses and wrecked churches. Traffic and downtown city life appeared normal. No im portant buildings in Lima were destroyed, but shop keep ers and city maintenance men swept up glass and fallen bricks from the streets. The last severe quake struck Lima in 1940, killing 200 per sons and injuring 5,000. Hall Over Pines i r - ! 7 it ... if - ' : U Ten Floors Are Up oe the reading of some of the pa pers "quite embarrassing and quite vulgar." "Our investigation shows that . . . apparently the class misinterpreted Mr. Paull's as signment," Chancellor Sitter son's statement read. Paull called it an "unfortu nate misinterpretation of the assignment on their (the of fended students') part." "I would like to make it clear that I was not deviating from the syllabus at all," Paull told the DTH. Paull said he read three of the papers in class one of which contained "words that were inserted merely for shock value." "It sort of embarrassed me," he said. "I went on to explain that this was not what I had meant by the assignment, that they had missed the entire point of the poem." "To His Coy Mistress" is a 17th century love poem by An drew MarvelL Sitterson's statement said it was "very widely anthologized and al most universally praised." Sitterson's statement said that in the light of the mis understanding and resulting publicity, however, "it ap pears that a reassignment of Mr. Paull to other department al duties than the teaching of this class would be in the best interests of the educational function of the University. "In making this reassign ment, no punitive measures are being taken against Mr. Paull nor are there any charg es being made against him." Paul! said he had been noti fied of his reassignment, " but did not know what he would be doing now or who would take over his class. He said he would "just as soon not comment" on how he felt about the action. Sitterson could not be reach ed to explain the specifics of the reassignment. Paull teaches only the class involved in the controversy. He came here in 1965 after earning his A.B. degree at the University of Michigan and his M.A. at Cornell Universi ty where he studied under a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship. f X- -i':A jr s . -t . s 0 ' VI".
