"Perhaps now we can make it a reality," he said. awards deadline by Karen Jurgensen Staff Writer The deadline is February 10 for student and faculty nominations for recipients of the Tanner, Salgo and Standard Oil (Indiana) awards given annually to faculty members. Monetary awards are given to a total of eight regular faculty members for their excellence in teaching. The Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Teaching and the Curriculum is receiving and compiling nominations from faculty and students in order to present Chancellor J. Carlyle Sitterson a list of nominees for the awards. The Chancellor will make the final decisions to be announced in May at the last meeting of the Faculty Council. Wesley Wallace, chairman of. the committee, said Monday that rather than defining what "good teaching" means, the group is asking for letters of recommendation for professors who "turn students on." Wallace, who said he is anxious to hear from students, said the letters must ask that a person be considered and explain why. There are four Tanner awards each carrying a stipend of $1,000, three Standard Oil (Indiana) awards valued at $1,000 each and one Nicolas Salgo award for $1,500. Tanner awards are given to "regular faculty . members heavily engaged in teaching freshmen and sophomores," while the Salgo award goes to someone engaged principally in junior and senior teaching. The Standard Oil (Indiana) award can be given to anyone in undergraduate teaching. Professors who have received the awards in the last five years are not eligible. Ballots should be mailed to Wesley H. Wallace, 202A Swain Hall. Mea Friday said the change was made necessary to comply with state laws and auditing procedures. ' Discussions on proposed changes were initiated when Friday and Vice Chancellor of Business and Finance Joseph C. Eagles received a letter from a UNC student asking for an investigation of accounting procedures. Concern by student representatives at the meeting was expressed on the implications of power control over student activity fees. Student Body President Tom Bello, following the meeting, said, "Originally, there was a question in my mind as to the amount of power the University administration will exercise over the student fufunds. "At most, the administration will only dispense the student funds," he continued. "There is no doubt in my mind that the administration will not exercise veto power over those funds." President Friday said a committee will be chosen by Bello and Eagles to J f it f N, - ' -.v .... Features noted tenor yinnipiflioimy peiriroir The North Carolina Symphony Orchestra, with North Carolina's noted tenor Walter Carringer as guest soloist, will perform Friday at 8:15 p.m. in Memorial Hall. The concert, free to students, will be the second of the Chapel Hill Adult Concert Series. Benjamin Swalin and guest conductor Valter Poole will direct the 65-piece orchestra. The concert will open with the overture to Wagner's opera "Rienzi," the story of a Roman hero of the 14th century, determined to restore Rome to her former glory. The overture begins with a trumpet call, followed by an exalted melody in the strings, and a implement the policy's initiation. The names of people who are to preside on : that committee are not known at this ; time. i However, a committee to coordinate ? student procedures in the change will be - headed by Waddell, director of the Student Activity Fund Mrs. Francis Sparrow and Wade Atkins. In order to facilitate the change of systems, Waddell has called for a temporary freeze of student activity funds that will last approximately a week to ten days. f "Students should not be alarmed over I the freeze," he said. ."The funds are not 'officially' frozen but no requisitions will f be accepted in order to facilitate h procedures of the change." Waddell, who expressed doubt on the ; proposed system change Monday, gave the idea grudging approval after the meeting Tuesday. "I don't welcome the changes," he said, "but I accept them as outlined by A Jr- ( VP v ft The N.C. Symphony Orchestra will present stirring march signifying Rienzi's prayer and battle hymn, "Praise to Thee." In salute to Beethoven, whose 200th birthday has recently passed, the program will include his Symphony No. VIII. The eighth symphony is significant among Beethoven's works because it reflects a substantial change in his outlook. It has been called a "symphony with a smile" because it is shorter and more cheerful than his others. After intermission, lyric tenor Walter. Carringer will perform. 'Tennessee born and North Carolina bred," Carringer has bwomejjjie of America's outstanding native singers. His voice is "unusually full-bodied, with a fine ring, velvety softness and exceptional flexibility." Carringer is well-known for his performances in President Friday. I think it was made fairly obvious to the people at the meeting that the change was necessary." Ken Day, chairman of the Audit Board of the Student Activities Fun said steps toward adopting the trust fund operation will take effect in about a week. Day said the specific construction of the trust fund operation will be handled through Waddell, Mrs. Sparrow and Atkins. He added that the preliminary procedures formerly governing the student fees revealed that they were not uniform in handling. "Business officers began by taking a look at the overall fee structure and naturally the accounting practices went with them," Day said. "I think we ought to do what is appropriate to bring the fees within the uniformity required by the state." Bello claimed that one point against n v Si nUl o W f 7-' z - ll " its second concert of the year Friday night. rams Carnegie, Philharmonic and Town Halls. He will perform "II mio Tesoro" (My Treasure) from the opera Don Giovanni by Mozart, "Le Jeune Patre Breton" (The Young Shepherd from Brittany) by Berlioz, and "Cielo e Mar" (Sky and Sea) from the opera "La Gioconda" by Ponchielli. After his boyhood in Murphy, N.C, Carringer entered the Army, where he became aware of his superior vocal abilities. His military superiors recognized Carringer's talent and arranged for the young singer to appear in USO shows and bond-selling tours. Many who heard him urged him to pursue singing as a career. He studied for three years at Columbia the old system is presented by the fact that no audit has been taken of student fees in the last 15 years. "We can only hope that in the long ran, the new process of accounting, whatever it may be, will not prove stifling," Bello offered. Before the meeting, criticism of the proposal was aimed at the possibility of University veto over the budgeting powers of Student Legislature, possible exclusion of students in decision-making policies and the feasibility of such a new system. However, while cautiously relating the outcome of the meeting, representatives of both sides appeared equally satisfied with the agreement. Attending the meeting were President Friday; Richard Robinson, special assistant to the president; Felix Joyner, vice president in charge of finance for the Consolidated University; UNC Chancellor J. Carlyle Sitterson; Eagles; Bello; Day and Waddell. V V. X r ' University picking up many honors along the way.
