President Ham Horton yes terday said that it is essential that this proposal be passed to night to be put in effect by election time. The ruling is that any. pro posed change must be passed 45 days before the time of elec tion. He added that he felt this change would bring about a closer relationship between legislator and student which he felt was necessary for true rep resentation of the students. He said in the present sys tem, it is practically impossible for the legislators to meet all students in the two districts. He stated that with the legisla SUAB Meets Tonight in Graham Memorial A mass meeting of all students participating in this year's Student Union Activities Board program will be held tonight at 7:30 in Roland Parker Lounges One and Two of Graham Memorial, Ken Penegar, chairman of the group said yester day.

A set of 12 kinescope films is now under production in the main studio of Swain Hall. These consist of lectures and demonstra tions by professors from all three branches cf the Consolidated University. A kinescope is a film recording made especially for airing TV shows. Its popularity owes it self to the fact that by its use programs may be broadcast after their actual production and may be edited to any extent desired. Preston H. Epps, UNC profes sor in the classics, will lecture in his field. Albert Coates, director of the Institute of Government here, will be featured in a pro gram from the institute building. A kinescope will be made show ing various new agricultural techniques developed at State College. Does all this mean then, that the University is going "to get or about to get a TV station? It all depends, according to Dr. Logan Wilson, on the Trustees and the Legislature or private gifts. It's their decision, he said. Dr. Wilson, vice-president of the Consolidated University and chairman of the University Com mittee on Television, said the ex perimental kinescopes are being produced at a cost of $3,000. They will be used to demonstrate TV potentialities to everyone con cerned with the program, espe cially the state legislature, he said. "It is a tribute to Gordon Gray's foresight," Dr. Wilson said, "that he realized the enormous potential of educational televi sion." Gray has been studying for some time the medium which appeals to "the total sensory per ception of sound and vision." The Federal Communications Commission has allowed eijht channels in North Carolina for nonfcommercial TV. The only one of these designated to operate on a frequency capable of being re ceived now is the channel as signed to Chapel Hill. This gives it a particular value, Dr. Wilson said. "The commer cial operators are waiting to pounce if the University does not act." Aside from the high-cost, no profit aspect cf teaching by TV a major deterrent to its complete acceptance is a feeling among certain trustees and faculty members that ether things are needed much more by the Uni versity, Dr. Wilson said. UNC Graduate Wins Wave Recruit Honor Nancy Applewhite Lewis, SA, USN, 1351 UNC graduate, has been chosen honor recruit of the Wave Recruit Training Command in Bainbridge, Md. Enlisting as a Wave in June 1S52, she is the enly North Caro linian to receive this distinction. Miss Lewis is the daughter cf Mr. and Mrs. Richard A. Lewis of Enfield, N. C. Attention Frosh All organizations, fralernilies and sororities who have net previously comixacied for space in the 1S53 Yackety Yack yes terday were asked la do so by Business Manager Russ Co we 11.
