Dr. William R. Keech favors
reform of the present primary
nominating system and offers
an alternative he feels would
?
- oe more organized and
structure.
"The present system is
unplanned and chaotic,"
explained Keech. "Different
state primaries are often
scheduled for the same day
and candidates can avoid
* entering a primary because of
a possible defeat. As a result,
a lot of primaries aren't
meaningful."
Keech favors setting up a
national nominating policy
based on state primaries held
in five or six states. This
would eliminate the problems
of overlapping elections and
all of the candidates could be
-listed on the ballot.

The Black Student Movement
(BSM) at thfe University
of North Carolina at Chapel
Hill is presenting several
speakers, panel discussions
and campus groups this week
to celebrate Black History
Week (Feb. 9-16).
According to Cookie Bell,
chairman of the BSM Cultural
Committee, the scheduled
activities should make black
students, at the University
and Chapel Hil community
aware of the achievements
blacks are making in the
present and have made in the
past. The program also
willexplore some black problems
and their causes.
All of the programs, which
are open to the public will be
held in Upendo Lounge in
Chase Cafeteria at UNC.
A graduate student panel
discussion on health problems
will be held at 8 p.m.
Thursday (Feb. Id), Students
from the UNC School of Public
Health will discuss some of
the most common health
related problems affecting
blacks and possible ways of
controlling them,

The BSM Drame Group will
perform at 6:30 p.m. Saturday
(Feb. 15). This group has been
presenting plays on the UNC
campus for several years.

The states, which would be
different in each presidential .
election, "probably?would be
selected by some federal
agency, Keech said. The order

said, "but T am in favor of
reform and I feel my
alternative is the best of those
suggested."
Other alternatives to the
present nominating policy
include setting up a national
primary or a system of
regional primaries. Keech
feels that a national primary
would be too expensive and
unknown candidates would
not have a fair chance against
those individuals already
known by the public."
Keech r who has "done an
extensive study on the current
nominating policy and alternatives,
admits it is difficult to
design any system that will
A
insure good candidates or
good presidents. However,
any system should try to
insure fairness &nd openness,
he said.
The press could play a more
important role in nominating
candidates according to
Keech. "The media have a
tendency to cover pseudo
events and trivia," he
explained. "They should do
more assessing of qualifica- *
tions."
He admits the media might
be somewhat restrained in Wj
evaluating candidates more ev
carefully because of credibility ha
problems. If

Putting in attic insulation to

you a lot of money. (Insulating
walls will also yield savings,
but this is difficult to do aftev a

cellulose, or other materials
and comes in big rolls. It's
easy to use but do remember:
wear a mask, gloves and
protective clothing when you

usually applied by blowing the

don't try this yourself; hire a
