King Nyle I is still alive and well.
Nyle Frank, the controversial political
science instructor, gained statewide
attention last fall after beginning the
Invisible University of North
Carolina-ll'NC.
Last December 2. he proclaimed
himself King of the Invisible Kingdom of
America and held a rather spectacular
coronation in the Pit at high noon.
The next day, Frank was suspended
from his teaching position because of
"unprofessional conduct, improper
grading procedures, failure to meet class
and inadequate coverage of course
material."
Frank denied the charges and together
with a group of his students met with the
departmental grievance committee. The
committee unanimously voted to
reinstate him.
Frank withdrew from the graduate
school at the end of the fall term,
devoting all of his efforts to 1UNC and his
kingdom.
This fall he is back in graduate school
here working on a doctorate degree. But
he is still very much involved in IUNC

F,-.:r.g have been secondary questions to
many students. The euphoria that
prevailed after L'NC's impressive victory
and continued when it appeared that
Arnold would make it has now
disappeared. Ihe guard's condition
remains m extreme doubt.
Memorial Stadium will probably not be
filled to its 71,000-seat capacity for
today's game, one of the most
evenly-matched in the nation.
Carolina's young but effective blocking
wall h.as a strenuous assignment; the lllini
defense is led by its front four.
Ihe best is 240-pound tackle Tab
Bennett. "In the films, he reminds me of
Kentucky's Dave Roller," said one Tar
Heel. "He's a hard-fighter, and very
quick."
Co-captain dlenn Collier and Bob
Buckhn are the ends. Dave Wright, at the
other tackle, led the lllini in stops last
week.
Two sophomores, Octavus Morgan and
Chuck Kogut, are surprisingly good
linebackers, and at cornerback Willie
Osley and John Graham are veterans.
One good running back who will not
start for Illinois is Darrell Robinson, who
has lost 24 pounds this year. "They can
call be "scat back" instead of "fat back,"
Robinson says.

alive
and is far from abdicating his "invisible
throne."
"The Invisible University of North
Carolina consisted of a number of
'courses' where people could get together
to discuss or do whatever they wanted."
Frank explained.
"Perhaps the siate should force
everyone to learn a tew basic skills-like
reading, writing and arithmetic-but
beyond that 1 feel learning should be up
to the individual. People will learn things
when THEY feel they have a need to
know them."
Frank admitted that in certain areas,
the present educational institutions work
"adequately."
"Fields like dentistry, medicine and
engineering all require a highly trained
faculty . expensive facilities and some
criteria tor determining competence. But
in most areas. I think we can really all
teach each other." he said.
"Having people worrying about grades,
credits, exams, etc. only con 1 uses and
perverts what might otherwise be a very
stimulating situation."
Frank, 25, has spent most of his life in
the Los Angeles. California, area. He
received his B.A. degree in political
today
Ouarterbavk M:ke Wells has at least
one outstanding target in split end Garvin
Roberson. Sophomores Ed Jenkins and
John Wilson gained 49 and 4 yards
apiece.
Illinois had to circle the wagons against
MSU because of numerous fumbles, and
the general consensus of the defense was
favorable. BuckJin called it "the best
defensive performance since I've been
here," although that may not be saying
an awful lot.
Ron Rusnak will be out again this
week with an ankle injury at one of
Carolina's guards, and veteran Jim Papai
will step in.
It is almost inconceivable that
Carolina's running game could fail against
anybody, but if the lllini wall holds,
Miller has several alternatives.
Earl Bethea, a split end who didn't get
a chance to catch anything at Richmond,
is a splendid receiver. Johnny Cowell is a
reliable tight end of Jolley is a possible
game-breaker.
Defense was a strong point, keeping
Richmond away from the goal until late
in the fourth quarter. John Bunting and
Bud Grissom were the ringleaders from
outside linebacker andtackle, and Eric
Hyman and Robbi VandenBroek are solid
at the other tackle.
Ends Bill Brafford and Gene Brown
pressured Richmond QB Ken Nichols into
submission with help from Grissom, and
Mike Mansfield embarrassed no one in his
first game at linebacker.
Inside linebackers are veterans Ricky
Packard and John Anderson. In the
secondary, Lou Angelo, Rusty Culbreth
and Richard Stilley didn't have much
business going their way at Richmond,
but today may be different.
It should be a great battle for the
disinterested football fan.

United Press International
RALEIGH- The State Board of
Higher Education Friday issued a report
which comes just four years too late for
most recent college graduates.
The board compiled results of a survey
of senior college and university placement
directors across the state on the
employment prospects for graduates in
various fields.
Dr. Cameron West, board director of
higher education, said the survey
indicated jobs are available for college
graduates actively seeking them, but
graduates in some disciplines are having a
lot more trouble than those in other
fields.
Employment areas with "excellent"
job opportunities include health care,
accounting, elementary and special
education, mechanical and chemical
engineering, food science, operations
research and correctional science.
Discipline with poor opportunities
include social science education, foreign
languages, English and business
education.
West said in some instances acceptance
d
an
science from UCLA in 1967 and entered
graduate school here that fall. He received
his M.A. in January, 1969.
Formerly an active member of Young
Americans for Freedom, Frank has now
abandoned the organization.
Frank said he decided to start his ow n
school because of the University's
bureaucracy. His decision was sparked by
an order to move the time of his Political
Science 41 class from II a.m. back to its
originally scheduled S a.m. "Since I had
no money and no buildings, my school
would be invisible," he said.
"You don't need much money or any
facilities to organize many 'courses.'"
Frank said. "Nearly everybody in town is
willing to donate at least a couple of
hours now and then to talk about
something they're interested in.
"It's ridiculous to think of education
as something one gets during the first IS
or 22 years of life. It should be a natural
and on-going thing. In the long run, each
person has to conduct their own Invisible
University, picking out the resources they
feel are necessary to help them achieve
whatever it is they're after."
Frank said he no longer asks people to
teach courses. "I only put courses in my

of jobs not meeting graduates'
expectations are necessary for
employment.
Job prospects in engineering were
rated almost uniformly excellent or good,
except for the areas of aeronautical and
aerospace engineering, which have been
hit by widespread unemployment across
the nation.
West cautioned any question of the
surplus of college graduates must be
answered with care because of variables,
including working conditions, salaries and
fringe benefits associated with jobs.
He said there was a question as to
whether a surplus of certain manpower
implied high unemployment or whether it
meant persons in the field were accepting
jobs not in keeping with their training.
"For example, graduates in chemistry
at institutions have thus far been
successful in securing employment, a fact
that runs counter to the national trend,"
he said. "This group has the lowest
unemployment rate in the United
States."
Job areas with excellent opportunities
include accounting, special education.
newsletter (The Bi-Weekly 'Pede when
people request me to. This year it's really
up to other people to help organize and
publicize their own courses."
Frank said most of his time now is
divided between working on the
newsletter, answering letters, talking to
people and studying for his written
political science exams.
"I also enjoy playing the piano and
meditating a couple of times a day. And
naturally , I spend a great deal of care in
analyzing the upcoming football games
each week."
Although his address is also invisible,
messages can be left for Frank at the
Union information desk.
Explaining has plans for the future.
Frank said he expects to stage "one major
event" each month. "The first a festival
to celebrate the coming of Fall-will be
held in the Forest Theater at S p.m.
Tuesday. In October. I'd like to have a
big penny-pitching tournament in the Pit.
And in November, a Debutante Ball-a

"After my exams are over in early
November, I plan to nuke a much greater
effort to involve people around the state.

Retiring President Walter Batgett
spoke at the meeting
"At the close of m term of ottice.as
the Graduate and Protevsior.al Student
Federation (GPSF heads into its first full
academic ear ot existence. I can report
to ou that a firm organizational
foundation has been laid." Baggett said.
"When we have spoken, ue have been
listened to as the representative of all
graduate and professional students "
Bagcet t presented a brief review of his
administration and pointed to a number
of accomplishments.
"The most important objective which
I have sought has been the control of our
own student activities fees." Baggett said.
"In pom; ,t fact, we have obtained
recognition in virtually all areas other
than this.
'Ave have been welcomed and listened
to b the Faculty Council, we have
obtained proportioned representation on
the Consultative Forum, we have attained
some degree of control over our own
judicial system and our recommendations
to the Chancellor and undergraduate
Student Government for committees have
been accepted "
Baggett then went on to consider
GPSF separation from undergraduate
Student Government.
"For the future, I am convinced of the
necessity of a strong, independent
graduate and professional student
government," Baggett said. "Contrary to
the views of some critics, we have not
detracted from the effectiveness of
undergraduate government .
"Indeed one finds it difficult to
conceive of someone like Joe Stalhngs
arguing: eogently in favor of increased
stipends. I h is is the type of issue which
we must attack, not pushing Al
Lowenstein for President. We can take
care of that personally at the ballot box."
GPSF elections followed Bapget's
address.
Bill S nod grass. Ken Channel, Bi'l
Kussel, Paul Hoch and Charles Daniel
were elected to the Executive Board.
Dick Baker chairs the Judicial
Committee; Anthony Coyne, Rules
Committee, and Ralph Steuer, Finance
Committee.
Becker was pleased with the results of
the election.
"We're very happy with the
constitution of the new Executive Board
and the quality of the new people
elected." Becker said. "We're especially
satisfied with the representation we
received. We elected to positions of
leadership representatives from large
departments, small departments and
professional Schools. Anumher of strong
and creative people appear to have been
selected."
