RALEIGH, March 13—A very un
pleasant job next week has been
made easier for several hundred
people by reason of a visit to the

tore can*-dlfiver. Statutes provide
for confirmation by the senate or
by the entire assembly of guber
natorial appointments to other
boards and commission, but the
legislature itself names the univer
sity trustees.
Every session has' from 25 to 30
vacancies to fill by election in joint
session of the senate and house,
and almost unbroken habit is for
election of nominees of the joint '
committee. So it is and has been
that about this stage of the legis
lative session a lot of manipula
tion goes on behind the scenes to
get on the approved list. It is going j
on now. .At least half a' dozen
members of the 1951 assembly are I
openly campaigning for position in j
the biennial race.
For many years sentiment has I
been building up against members j
of the general assembly electing ]
themselves to a place on the board |
of trustees. Every effort to stop j
the practice has failed. Latest se- j
rious attempt was made by Ed j
Hudgines, senator from Guilford
county in 1943. Too many members j
of that legislature wanted to be 11
university trustees and Senator ,
