Sebo Candidacy Correction Made
The Guilfordian wishes to
apologize for the error in the
last issue of the Guilfordian in
which we stated that political
science professor Dr. Kathe
rine Sebo, a Democratic
candidate for State Senate,
would face incumbent Senator
McNeill Smith in the primary.
We were wrong on two
counts. First, there is no
primary in Guilford County for
the N.C. Senate. Also, Dr.

Koenig To Speak On
Crisis Of Presidency
by Dave Owens
"The Crisis of .Presidential
Accountability" is the topic to
be explored Friday. March 22.
at Guilford College in the
second of a three-part series
on "The Presidency and the
Executive Branch Under the
Constitution."
Dr. Louis W. Koenig,
professor of government at
New York University, will
discuss that subject in a
meeting at 8:15 p.m. in Dana
Auditorium. Afterward, he
will be questioned by a panel
of authorities on government
as well as by members of the
audience.
Sebo is not running against
Sen. Smith. There are three
Senate seats from this county,
and Sebo, Smith, and
Lynwood Smith are all running
together as Democrats to fill
those seats. The three will
face three Republicans in the
November election.
The Guilfordian sincerely
regrets the error, and
apologizes particularly to Dr.
Sebo and Sen. Smith.
Greensboro, N.C.
Earlier in the day, starting
at 3 p.m., the panel will hold a
discussion on the crisis of
Presidential accountability in
the Moon Room of Dana.
Panel members will be
Richard N. Current, Distin
guished Professor of History
at UNC-Greensboro and vice
president of the Southern
Historical Association; Wil
liam Keech, associate profes
sor of political science and
research associate in the
Institute for Research in Social
Science at UNC-Chapel Hill;
and Edwin M. Yoder. Jr..
associate editor of the
Greensboro Daily News.
"Since its establishment in
1937 the power and the
influence of the Executive
Office of the President have
tended to increase at the
expense of the much older
Cabinet and regular depart
ments," according to William
Carroll, chairman of the
political science department at
Guilford. "Some of the
consequences of that tendency
for presidential accountability
will be examined."
Koenig is author of three
books. When his latest, "The
Chief Executive," first ap
peared in 1964 it was praised
by the New York Times as
"the best full-length study of
the Presidency we now have."
In a revised edition
published by Harcourt, Brace
& World, he places the
Johnson Administration in the
framework of analysis used in
the first edition and includes
new material on Presidential
values and styles.
I here also is a new section
comparing the President with
other U.S. executives --
governors and mayors.
Koenig, professor of gov
ernment at NYU since 1950,
previously taught at Bard
College and worked in
Washington for the State
Department, Budget Bureau
and the first Hoover Commis

Invisible Presidency" and
