Parker Family Gives Film I by GAYLE WATTS A documemtaiy film on the Nur emberg trails has been presented to the Atkins library by the fam ily of the late Judge John J. Par- j ker. His son, Ersmcis 1.

According to Larry, “Everyone I at the Legislature meeting seem- i ed to agree that something had to ' be done. 1 think most everyone seems to like the bill.” i Now that the resolution has been introduced and passed, it is up to the Student Government Execu tive Committee to make a full in vestigation of the Conduct and or ganization of the Elections Comm ittee and submit a full report to the Student Legislature no later than Monday, November 28, 1966, SP Organizes, Looks Forward BY SANDY CAUDLE The first meeting of the Stu- I dent Party for the 1966-67 term was held November 2, in room 209 of the University Union. Since the chairman and vice chairman elected last spring were unable to fill their new offices, the chief item on the agenda was a re-election. Bill Shuford was chosen chairman by acclamation Carlene Crumpley defeated Ka; Troutman in the election of vice chairman. Linda Johnson, elected last year, is the Secretary-Trea surer. (Continued on Page 4) Larry explained, “1 introduced the bill, because 1 thought that the elections were run rather poorly and that the only way to correct the situation was to make a full investigation of the Elections Co- mittee.” He added, “1 was urged to do so by several Freshmen candidates and other people who worked with the campaign.” Seven complaints are listed in the resolution. (1) Until Thursday, there was no Freshman roster provided in order to keep an accurate list of those Freshmen having voted. (2) The ballot box was constr ucted in such a manner as to allow unauthorized entry. (3) The polls were not open at 8:30 a. m. on Thursday, October 27. (4) The ballot did not list the candidates alphabetically as spec ified in the Student Government Election Committee Rules. (5) No ballots were available for a period of approximately thirty minutes on Friday, October 28. (6) The polis were closed at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, in spite of the fact that the President of the Student Body had specifically st ated on Wednesday, October 26 in the Freshman Assembly that the polls would remain open un- tii 4:00 p.m. on said Friday. (7) Each candidate was not given sufficient opportunity to provide for an observer to be present during the counting of the ballots. Following a brief discussion of the resolution, it was accepted un animously by the Student Legis lature. W ho’s Who List Includes 28 Students Here Twenty-eight students have been selected to represent this school in the 1967 edition of Who’s Who Among Students In American Uni versities and Colleges. These twenty - eight were selected on the basis of their leadership and scholarship ability as well as degree of personal honor. They join a select group since students picked for Who’s Who are generaUy recognized to be among the best of the college and university students in America. Students chosen from this cam dence against the war criminals on trial at Nuremberg. The late Judge Parker of Char lotte was a judge at the trials, and these materials were pre sented to him for his services at the trials. Dr, Nish Jamgotch of the His tory-Political Science Department saw the film at the presentation ceremony and feels that each per son should familiarize himsefl with this chapter in man’s history. “Personally, I make it my bus iness to probe theNurembergdoc uments at least once a year. It’s a sobering experience — a poig nant reminder of the cruel depths to which men have reduced them selves in the name of human good. Any person who exempts himself from this part of the human story is guilty of self - righteous de ception, ” he said. Mr. Jim Earner, head libra rian, is extremely pleased to re ceive tliese gifts for the library. “The late Judge Parker, a most distinguished jurist, was long a friend of this institution. The film is interesting and val uable in itself, and marks the in- iation of a development that we are going to emphasize at this branch of the university — a con certed effort to extend research facilities to visual and vocal aids,” Earner said. He says the aim now is for one showing of the film open to interested persons. At least one copy of the film is de- back up this original reel before other showings are scheduled, since the film is over twenty years old. In accepting the gifts, Chan- ceUor Dean W. Colvard said that one of the major roles of a uni versity is to preserve and trans mit knowledge and that the gift of these materials would enable UNC-C to perform this function. He said that the memorial is even more dramatic because “one of the homefoiks was involved in one of the great international trials of all time.” Mr. Francis Parker said that his father knew Charlotte College, although UNC-C did not exist in his time. “He was dedicated to and interested in higher education, and I know he would be pleased to know that this film was being pre- spvved so close to home.” pus are: Susan Goshien Ades, a junior psychology major from Charlotte.
