Saturdays Heroes
The Daily Tar Heel views with encouragement the Trus
tees' decision to postpone consideration on the Saturday
class issue until a later date.
The advocates' of a six-day school week are concerned over
the weekend exodus, student apathy, and other facets of
Carolina life which tend to make the student body appear in
dolent and under-par.
Although we share this concern, we do not believe the in
jection of an extra day of classes into the curricula presents
a realistic approach to the problem. Actually, the great masses
of Carolina students are not so frivilous as the Saturday class
enthusiasts would have us believe.
No one can deny that the sunny spring weekends find our
mid-Atlantic coastline well populated with students - whose
time could be better invested in the reserve reading room of
the Library. However, we are confident that those students
who spend the weekend studying, sleeping, and visiting the
homefolks constitute a preponderant majority. The exodus
addicts and. beach-enders seem to typify Carolina only be
cause they are more obvious and more easily recognized.
We maintain that whatever benefits sought by those who
favor a six-day week would be more effectively realized
throughjsuch positive measures as a new student union build
ing with expanded facilities to induce the students to remain
in Chapel Hill.
To force us to stay in Chapel Hill over the weekend by
creating Saturday classes is like cutting off our feet when we
need shoes.
La Traviata
For those who read the Ral
eigh Hews And Observer, it has
been of continuing, interest to
follow the repeated attacks in
their editorials upon some of the
policies of the Domestic Re
lations Courts in this neck of
the woods. The blasts have been
aimed primarily at the secrecy
with which many of the Courts
hearings are . conducted. The
Observer points out that sec
recy not only leads to laxity
and even corruption, but that
in a case such as this, the pub
lic, whom the Courts obtensibly
represent, have every right to
know what is being done in
their behalf. There are, of
course, certain instances where
justice can better be served
in private, but this should be
the exception, and not the rule.
Some very obvious parallels
can be drawn between this prob
lem in the State courts and the
same problems here in our Cam
pus courts. Much of the impot
ency and distrust of our stu
dent judiciary stems directly
from the unholy pale of sec
recy that encompasses every ac
tion they take. The time is long
past due for the Campus courts
to answer their critics with some
concrete' recommendations for
improving their system.

The following review of "La
Traviata" which will appear in
Memorial Hall Thursday at
eight p.m. under - the sponsor
ship of the Student . Entertain
ment Committee, was written
by Mae Finch for The Raleigh
News and Observer. Editor
La Traviata, Giuseppi Verdi's
drama opera, sung by the Grass
Roots Opera Company in per
formance last night at Needham
Broughton High School, proved
again that the people love their
opera in English. Thecast won
the plaudits again and again
from the near-capacity audi
ence. - . "V;-
Deborah Allen, singing the
star role of .Violetta Yalery,
gave an excellent performance,
showing, wide, colorful vocal
range as well as dramatic act
ing ability throughout - from
the gay opening scene in the
drawing room of her home to
the. tragic death scene at the
end. Through all the scenes she
looked the "Dresden china
piece" of the "Lady of the Ca
mellias." David Witherspoon as
Alfredo " Germont, Viloetta's
lover, who sanj the lead tenor
role, not only .gave adequate
support, but sang the tenor arias
with superb impassioned drama
and fire.
Act II brings them to the ter
race of Flora's villa, where she
entertains guests; and Alfredo
and Violetta are brought to fave
each other. He denounces her
in dramatic violence. His father
enters and hears; reprimands
him severely. Baron Douphon,
with Robert Bird taking the
role, is a friend of Violetta's
and sings her praises.
In Act IV, the final act of
the performance, Violetta is dy
ing and her servant goes for Al
