g: WASHINGTON-For some reason, third-party
Presidential candidate George C. Wallace had North
j:;: Carolina on the tip of his tongue here Monday.
:j:jtt At one point, in a discourse about
Pseudo-liberals" during a question-answer session
gat the National Press Club, Wallace suddenly
declared:
"The University of North Carolina is going to
g get run over so big down in North Carolina it'll be
as if they didn't exist."
There was no immediate explanation why the
university had provoked Wallace's wrath. Chapel
Hill, however, is a pocket of anti-Wallace sentiment
in a state that may go for Wallace on Nov. 5.
: Several times during the day, Wallace seemed to
ij: be using North Carolina as symbolic of the South
;i; in its quarrels with Washington and the Johnson
administration.
He demanded to know why millions of dollars
j:': should be paid to federal bureaucrats "to come
i: down to North Carolina and check on all the
bathrooms down there."
This was a reference to federal pressures for
jij: desegregation of all employe facilities in industrial
plants covered by federal equal-employment laws,
especially those holding government contracts.
: Wallace also emphasized his familiar argument
ijij that each state should control its own schools,
jij "All we've said is let North Carolina run its
iij: school system, let Alabama run its school system,"
he said.

Dissatisfied with general
college requirements?
Students now have the
opportunity to voice their
opinions and make suggestions
to the newly-organized Special
Advisory Committee on the
General College Curriculum.
The committee, chaired by
Dr. Eugen Merzbacher of the
Physics Department, hold its
first meeting Monday
afternoon to discuss its areas of
concern.
The committee was
appointed by Dean of the
College of Arts and Sciences
Raymond Dawson at the
request of the Chancellor's
Advisory Committee on
teaching and the Curriculum in
May.
I i
The Chancellor's Committee
recommended a reassessment
of the "the rationale for all
courses presently required"
and "to propose changes in the
requirements if no persuasive
rationale is found."
The new student-faculty
committee will give
consideration to the following:
a) reducing the total
number of required courses in
the General College
b) increasing the options
within required areas
c) suggesting means of
improving the placement of
students in proper level
freshmen courses
d) devising procedures for
waiving certain General College
requirements in exceptional
cases when it is in the student's
academic interest.

the Peace and
Freedom Party will speak Oct.
19, at 8:00 p.m. in Hill Hall if
the Black Student Movement
can raise sufficient funds to
co-sponsor him with the
Carolina Forum.
Cleaver has long been a
spokesman of militant Black
America. His autobiography,
Soul on Ice, which he wrote
during a 9-year prison
sentence, describes the violent
youth which resulted in his
conviction for rape.
In 1967, Huey Newton,
chief of the Black Panther
Party, was arrested for the
murder of an Oakland
patrolman and Cleaver
organized a "Free Huey"
campaign to represent the
feelings of the militant black
community.
When Oakland police
wounded Cleaver last April, he
claimed that he "was marked
for death" and that only the
presence of witnesses saved
him from murder by "the
brazen, contemptuous, and
contemtible Oakland pigs."
Cleaver is currently the
cause of much comment due to
his selection as a lecturer on
the University of California's

onlookers hurried over.
There were no STP stickers

of the "New Look" for the

The plane was an American
Airlines 727, with "Michelle
Ann" written across the front.
I wondered how they decided
from which airline to hire the
plane. Eastern wouldn't look
good in the West. Trans World
Airlines would look too
foreign-policy minded.
National Airlines sounds either
too liberal or too totalitarian,
depending on which way you
lean.
The crowd milled around
the foot of the moveable
stairway, waiting for Agnew's
appearance. Undoubtedly the
baby spotter was at work in
one of the windows, and the
Secret Service were adjusting
their sunglasses.
Finally Agnew emerged,
impeccably dressed and with a
broad smile that one would
have thought he'd reserved for
a duel with Hubert Humphrey.
The applause wasn't much, but

Agnew, the people who

committee. He added that a
public discussion will be
arranged if there is a large
response to the committee's
work.
Chancellor Sitterson stated:
"The University should always
be ready to examine seriously
and thoughtfully its various
curricula."
The committee will study
the specific requirements of
modern civilization, English
1,2, and 21 and foreign
language.
The Chancellor's Advisory
Committee reported to the
Committee on the General
College that some course in v
history and the other social 4
sciences "should have an
important place in a university
education."
"The Committee questions,
however, whether any one
course, such as modern
civilization, is necessarily the
best way for all students to
become acquainted with this
vital field."
Similarly, the committee is
not "thoroughly convinced
that any particular course in
English-for example, English
21--ought to be required of all
students."
Dr. Merzbacher added that
the committee will take into
consideration current high
school curriculum. He said the
General College should avoid
repetition of courses that

UNC Utilities director Grey
Culbreth said Tuesday that the
expected increase in Carrboro
water rates is probably the
result of a wholesale price
increase enacted by the
j University Service Plants last
July.
Culbreth said that Carrboro
purchases water wholesale
from the University and that
the twon has not raised its
retail water rates since the
University increased wholesale
prices on July 1.
The Carrboro Board of
Aldermen is expected "to
discuss the matter at its
meeting next Monday, and it is
expected that they will, at that
time, vote to raise Carrboro
water prices.
Meanwhile, the emergency
water pipe line being laid to
Chapel Hill-Carrboro from
Durham is rapidly nearing
completion, according to
Culbreth.
Culbreth said Tuesday that
the line was expected to be
within 1500 feet of the Chapel
Hill end by nightfall and that if
those final 1500 feet are not
completed today they almost
certainly will be tomorrow.
However, Culbreth added
that a creek between Chapel
Hill and Durham has not yet
been crossed by the pipeline
because special pipes required
for that part of the line have
not arrived yet. They are not
expected to arrive until next
week.
The line will not become
operational until pumps have
been installed also.
A break in a pipe on
Cameron Avenue Tuesday wa
termed "routine" by Mr.
Culbreth, who said that it was
not expected to cause severe
leakage.
Water consumption Tuesday
was down slightly from
Monday's figure. 2.579 million
gallons were used by area
residents Tuesday.
Culbreth said that he thinks
water consumption can be cut
even more. He added that
additional conservation of
water will probably be
necessary as the drought
continues.

alleged cases of ptomaine
poisoning believed to have
been caused by "bad"
sandwiches.
Two Cobb dorm coeds
became ill last Thursday after
eating UNC ham and cheese
sandwiches Both had to be
taken to the infirmary for
treatment The infirmary,
however, did not specifically
diagnose ptomaine poisoning.
The petition, to be
presented to Tom Shetley,
head of Student Stores, points
out several complaints about
the sandwiches. It notes the
improper labeling, which
contains no date or ingredients;
the seemingly unnecessary
price increase; and dubious
sanitary' conditions under
which the sandwiches are
produced.
Retailers express equal
desire that the sandwiches be
taken off the counters or
replaced by other brands. "We
throw most of them
away they're losing money,"
one stated.
The sandwiches may soon
be placed in all campus vending
machines because of
discontinuation of contracts
between UNC and outside
sandwich companies.
All students are urged to
support this petition, to be
taken up Monday afternoon at
the Residence College Board of
Governors' meeting.
