Chancellor J. Carlyle Sitterson is
expected to approve a new Student
Stores. badL check;, policy passed
unanimously by the Student Stores
Advisory Committee Wednesday.
Committee Chairman J.A. Branch,
executive director of Auxiliary
Enterprises and Services, said he
anticipates a prompt acceptance of the
new policy by the Chancellor.
1 Branch was quick to point out that
because of a conference with the
Chancellor by two of the committee's
student members, Steve LaTour and
Gerry Cohen, a meeting to review the
policy was held. He added the new policy
was almost entirely formulated by Cohen.
According to the new policy, a first
notice of a bad check will be sent by U.S.
postage after the second return of the
check by the bank. After seven days, if
there have been no provisions for
payment, a second notice will be sent by

(Editor's note: Jim Reed is a member of a prominent
fraternity on campus who has done an extensive amount of
research on the fraternity system at UNC. This is the final
article in a series. )
How much do students care about fraternities on the UNC
campus?
A freshman questionnaire was recently distributed which
provides an insight to the answer to this question.
A total of 1 83 forms were distributed and of these only 49
were returned. A conclusion that freshmen are generally
apathetic towards fraternities could be drawn.
It must be noted that the forms were handed out during
exams' and thus the students may not have had any time to
devote to them. However, some specific conclusions may be
drawn is that many freshmen (50 of the responses) content
that "the brotherhood" is a superficial one. The concept of
"the brotherhood" is one that is too abstract to attempt to
define.
Suffice it to say that each individual has his own
convictions about it. Fraternities, for all their weaknesses, have

Walter Badgett was elected president
of the Graduate and Professional Student
Federation Tuesday night at an
organizational meeting attended by
representatives of more than 80 per cent
of the graduate students at the
University.
Representatives from 24 departments
were present at the meeting which saw
the election of Badgett.'a Ph.D. candidate
in the School of Business Administration.
Charles Vincent of the Law School was
elected vice president of the organization,
which was formed this fall to govern
graduate student activities.
Five members were elected to serve on
the executive board of the Federation.
They were Daisy Junge (English),' Bill
Kassens (medicine), Paul Hoch (history),
Karl Shaner (public health) and Charles
Daniel (geology).
The executive board will, serve as the
day-to-day administrative and
policy-making body of the Federation.

When the second notice is sent,, copies
will be forwarded to the Office of the
Dean of Student Affairs and to a Student
Government bad check commission, to -personally
inform the student of his
responsibility and warn him of the
consequences of nonpayment.
Cohen who also serves as chairman of
the Student Legislature Rules Committee,
said a bill will be introduced tonight to
establish the bad check commission, a
service which was abandoned by Student
Government three years ago.
If the check is still not paid within
three working days after receipt of the
registered letter, according to the new
policy, the Student Stores general
manager will turn the check over to the
University attorney, recommending
prosecution.

endured for nearly two centuries in - this country. The
comments portrayed fraternities as "plastic." Members were
envisioned as "pseudo-intellectuals" on "ego-trips."
There are ego-trippers in fraternities, but this isn't any
different than society in general. Perhaps the rationale behind
this is that if one is already exposed to this type of individual
in larger society why should one join a supposed microcosm of
that society. '
This would only bring the individual into closer contact
with the ego-trippers, ets. The rationale is not! totally
erroneous, but it is rather presumptuous for one to categorize
people before he has sufficient exposure to them.
Fraternities are progressing but the changes are still not
sufficient. The apparent unwillingness of the majority of
fraternities to change is evidenced by a decline of 1.7 percent
of the total number of undergraduate men who are in
fraternities.
While the number of undergraduate males has increased by
370 this past year, the number of fraternity men has decreased
by 64.
But the potential of fraternities as a living and learning
experience is unlimited. All that remains for fraternities to do
is to start developing them by individual and collective means.

We want to work with Student

with the S3,000 we requested for

Baggett said he didn't foresee any
problem in the establishment of by-laws

"The constitution we have is broad

Publications Board endorsed Harry
Bryan for editor of The Daily Tar Heel
Wednesday afternoon by general consent.
Bryan was the only person who filed for
Publications Board recommendation.
"We reviewed his qualifications,
attitude and editorial policy and found
him qualified to be editor of The Daily
Tar Heel," said Steve Ayers, Publications
Board chairman.
In his application for the
endorsement Bryan proposed increased
circulation of the newspaper to cover
apartment complexes, a Sunday
supplement for major North Carolina
dailies, future financial independence of
the. paper and a survey of what students
want and expect from their newspaper.
Bryan said financial independence
"ought to be The Daily Tar Heel's main
goal for the next few years. With the
University handling students' money, it is
a necessity that it become financially
independent to eliminate possibility of
any political pressure on the editor."
He admitted independence would not
be possible next year, "but the first step
has been taken with the - hiring of a
permanent business manager."
Bryan outlined further, steps as
including increased advertising and
circulation.
"It should be our job to put out a
high quality newspaper in which
merchants will want to advertise," said
Bryan. "Increased circulation in
apartment complexes should also have a
positive effect on advertising."

Thirty-four housing units in Victory
Village are scheduled for demolition in
the summer of 1972 and will require the
relocation of 12 families expected to be
living there.
The University Department of
Residence Life announced Tuesday the
housing units are being removed to make
way for a new parking lot facility
required by the construction of a
proposed Bed Tower additon to Memorial
Hospital.
The units to be removed are located
on Polk Street, Bagley Drive and Jackson
Circle.
Director of the Residence Life
Department . Robert F. Kepner said
Tuesday only 12 of the 34 families
currently living in the housing units are
expected to remain at the University after
June, 1972.
He said plans have already been
developed to provide alternate housing
for the 1 2 families who will require new
facilities.
Kepner said 28 units in the remaining
married student housing area of Victory
Village and Odum Village are expected to
be vacated by June, 1972.
"There should be no problems at all in
providing alternate housing of equal
quality for these families," Kepner said.
"Families affected by the removal of the
34 units will be given the highest priority
in assignment to a new apartment unit."
The remaining 22 families who are
expected to leave by the time of
demolition will be contacted to confirm
their intention of leaving.
Should they decide to remain at the
University, they will be put on the high
priority assignment list with the other 12
families.
Kepner added each family living in the
units to be removed has been given
notification and has been provided

Bryan also proposed a monthly color
Sunday supplement for major state dailies
to inform students as well as taxpayers
about activities on state campuses. The
supplement would be published by the
Tar Heel staff with correspondents from
major college campuses in the state.
"The general public doesn't know that
much about what's going on at college
campuses," emphasized Bryan. "For
succession. Jim O'Brien had 12 points
and eight rebounds, four less than Yates.
Karl led the Tar Heel marksmen, the
most accurate in the country, with 1 1 of
1 7, and Wuycik hit seven of 1 0.
Center Lee Dedmon had seven points
and seven rebounds, and Kim Huband
came off the bench for seven more
points.
"They're the best team we played so
far," admitted Driesell, who drew two
technical fouls in the first half.
"They've beaten us badly twice in a
row, but I kind of enjoyed watching them
play myself there in the second half.

The University is expected to aid the
families move by reinstalling their current
telephones in the new apartments at no
cost and by assisting in moving heavy
items during the regular work day.
The apartment numbers cf the 34
units were listed as: Polk Street 120,
124, 125, 126, 127, 128 and 130; Bagley

and 137.
According to the statement released,
the Bed Tower Construction is an
addition to the hospital that will increase
the number of bed space by 50 percent.
The statement further reported the
hospital addition required additional
parking facilities to be constructed. The
contract for the Bed Tower addition and
the parking lot construction were released
simultaneously.
Construction of the Bed Tower will
begin in 1972 and will take two years.
The parking area project was scheduled
for June, 1971, so as to be completed at
the same time of the Bed Tower
Construction.
The proposed parking lot will be the
second to be built causing removal of
housing units in the Victory Village.
In April, 1970, 12 families were issued
eviction notices requiring them to find
new housing facilities by June.
Concern was expressed by the families
involved then about relocation, the cost
of new facilities and the standards of the
new housing units.
According to the statement issued
Tuesday, the buildings in Victory Village
were erected in 1948 to serve for only
seven years.
Of an original 456 individual frame
apartments, 133 still remain. The Odum
VUlage apartments were constructed in
the early 1 960's.
The Bed Tower will be the third
addition to the hospital in four years.

The junior journalism major from

editor of the newspaper as of Wednesday.
"I don't think it's ethical for me to be a
candidate for editor and at the same time
be associated with the Tar Keel,
especially on the editorial page," Bryan
said.
Bryan has served as a staff member of
the paper since his freshman year. He has
held the positions of staff writer, news
editor, managing editor and this year as
associate editor.
In addition, Bryan is Chapel Hill
correspondent for United Press
International wire service. He has also
been a summer intern for five years with
the Asheville Citizen both in the news
and sports departments.
"I was disappointed that no one else is
that interested in the race for editorship
of The Daily Tar Heel or that anyone
thinks that lightly of Pub Board to decide
to run without our recommendation,"
said Steve Ayers, chairman of
Publications Board.
"No one has ever won the editorship
without Pub Board's recommendation,"
he added.
"I can't understand and don't know
why no one else applied for Pub Board
endorsement," said Bryan. "I'm pretty
sure someone else will announce his
candidacy for editor before March 1 , the
final filing date, but I have no idea who,"
