The National Student Congress is officially the legislative body of the U.S. National Student Association.

Student leaders at the congress will have the Draft Fails Robert (Corky) Eaton, the UNC draft protester, did not know whether to be happy or not after his army induction examination on Tuesday afternoon. Eaton was rejected, which he wanted, but he did not get to protest, which was his purpose. Eaton who showed up in Raleigh with "the Resistance" and other demonstrators, was ready to defy the U.S. Army. He arrived wearing a blue Nehru jacket and dark trousers with a peace medallion around his neck. He also had a book of opportunity to participate in four student areas which deal with the student's role in the major issues of the day, both educational and semi-political. The study area of Education Innovation will be offered to those delegates interested in discussing goals and plans for educational reform. Educational programs included for discussion will be: curriculum reform, Experimental College or Free University approaches, and Freshman orientation. Also available to delegates will be in the international study area. The primary goal of this will be to investigate ways in which students may begin to alter the present structure and actions of the foreign policy establishment in the United States. The Student in the Community study area will focus on the problem of Racism in America. Planning of the study area has been based on a recognition of racism as the most severe and urgent domestic problem facing the nation, a problem that calls for new awareness and action on the part of concerned students. The first five days will be devoted to discussions of various approaches to the question of racism in America. Plans include a speech by Dick Gregory, presentations by staff members of People Against Racism (a community group from Detroit), and showings of such films as "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner," as possible basses for daily discussion groups.

But when Eaton was ready to tell the army he did not want them, the army told him they did not want him. He flunked his physical.

Police Chief W.D. Blake identified the coed as Sally Walker, 23, who lives at 207 Church Street. She is a native of Goldsboro. Chief Blake said that the police found three bottles in the refrigerator at Miss Walker's residence. The coed admitted that three of the tables found in the bottles contained "several trips each" of the hallucinogenic chemical, he said. The contents of all the bottles have been sent to the lab for chemical analysis, he added. Miss Walker said Wednesday night that "there were only three LSD tablets in one of the bottles. The other two bottles contained vitamins and saccharine." Miss Walker waived preliminary hearing Friday in Chapel Hill Recorder's Court. She was bound over to the next session of the Orange County Superior Court which is scheduled to convene in Hillsborough on Monday, Jfraton re-examination, but said it is not likely that he will purposely gain weight for the next occasion. He had tried to obtain a student deferment but lost his case in U.S. Middle District Court in Greensboro on Monday. He was then ordered to report to Raleigh for induction on Tuesday. Eaton has filed suit against the Hillsborough Selective Service Board on the grounds that they have been directed by the national Selective Service System to induct students who destroy their draft cards. Barry Winston, Eaton's attorney from Chapel Hill, said General Hershey had no authority to do this. He said that Eaton was entitled to be prosecuted for not earring a draft card, but not for resisting the draft. August 5. She will stand trial on felony charges. Chief Blake said Miss Walker refused bond and attorney on the night she was arrested. She remained in the Chapel Hill jail Thursday night. Friday morning she posted $1000 bond pending her appearance in Superior Court on Monday. Miss Walker said Wednesday night that she will have an attorney to represent her at her August 5th trial in Hillsborough. LSD was added to the State's Narcotics Act during the last session of the State Legislature. Possession or possession for sale carries a maximum five-year penalty for the first offense. Chief Blake said police began the investigation which resulted in Miss Walker's arrest after "at least two persons recently had sought medical treatment after taking trips with LSD." He added that Miss Walker's residence and "other areas in Chapel Hill" have been under surveillance. Miss Walker is a senior political science major here. She transferred to UNC last fall from UNC-G. She is scheduled to complete her credits for graduation at the end of this summer session. Last fall she was employed as a secretary in the political science department here.
