Dorm Resident Is Booted For Firecrackers The Interdormitory Council passed a resolution Monday against the shooting of firecrackers in or near dormitories. The vote was 17 to 10. Only last week a student was suspended from the University for aiscnarging iireworKS in a resi dence hall. Several dormitories have reported increasing trouble due to firecrackers exploding in the dorm area. The new act is designed to give strict enforcement power to the IDC court. It says: "Any person found guilty of discharging fire works in a dormitory or the im mediate vicinity thereof will be subject to a minimum sentence of one full quarter of suspension from the University residence halls." Another resolution concerning property damage " to dorms was approved, but it must also get ap proval from the Student Council and Dean of Students office be fore it can become a court by law. The resolution: "The Interdorm court shall have jurisdiction over a dormitory as a whole: in cases concerning mis use of the dormitory social rooms in which property damage respon sibility cannot be placed upon one or more individuals; in cases in volving management or conduct of dormitory social functions or mis conduct associated therewith for which responsibility for such mis conduct cannot be placed upon one or more individuals; in any case of misconduct or ungentle manly behavior which is associated with the dormitory as a unit and is representative of it." Two new officers were elected at the IDC this week. Former secretary Walt Gurley was elect (See IDC, Page 4) HARRY S.

WASHINGTON Atomic officials were flabbergasted yesterday by a ixhibit On Architecture ihowing Sn Morehead A firecracker-tosser got his fingers burned last week. The Interdormitory Council Court began its crackdown on dormitory disturbances by sus pending one student from the University residence halls for the remainder of the Winter Quarter, and placing four others on pro bation. The court's action came in the midst of a current firecracker barrage which has rendered sev eral dorms almost uninhabitable, according to IDC officers. The suspended student was ap prehended in his dorm room at 1 o'clock oa the morning of Sun day, Jan. 10, after setting off a firecracker within the flormitory. Dorm advisers entered his room with a pass key. The student's roommate was first accused until it was found that he already had a burned hand from a previous experience. The guilty student told advisers that he had fired the one fire cracker he had left over from Christmas. He has appealed the court's action to the Student Council . Four other students were given probation for , creating a disturb ance in :their;;dprmit6ry ; during quiet hours. Probation means that if a student is reported for any other disturbance, his case will go gemore the Men's Council and he will be liable to suspension from the dormitory. - Presbyterians Form Second Church Here I .. :. . m v..:'-?.- t..... ::,,-. .

This is the first serious student gambling condition on a North Carolina college campus since De cember, 1949, when Raymond Hair shot and killed Roy Coble at Wake Forest College. This was the result of a quarrel over a gam bling debt which Hair owed Coble. Hair is now serving a 20-25 year term in Central Prison. The residents of the dormitory involved in the present situation, said their dorm should not be sin gled out for special criticism. They contended that gambling is not confined to any dormitory but is prevalent in almost every dorm on campus.

George, the campus dog, eat-' ing the offerings of generous stu dents with nary a thought for his fattening frame. Famed as the "Young Man With The Horn," Anthony will provide during the weekend orchestral presentations running the gamut from jazz and swing to novelties land sweet ballads just to prove his versatility. Born in Bentlyville, Pa., the musicians success story moves from a local band in his Cleveland high school, past Al Donahue, lingers briefly with Jimmy Dorsey, joins Glen Miller in 1940, and stops with a Navy enlistment in 1942 but only until the Navy morale division sighted his musi cal ability. At request Anthony collected a service dnace band. Hustled off to the Pacific to entertain troops, the group was named the top' band in the entire Pacific area. - After a Navy discharge, the "Young Man" and horn appear in the midwest with a dance orches tra of their own. After - a three year tour of the country , Anthony was signed by Capitol ' Records. These records plus bookings at the Paramount Theater, Cafe Rouge of the New York Statler and the Paladium in Hollywood brought him to hte top of the name band heap. Of be-bop, Ray Anthony says, "A horrible noise." He feels that "Boppers" have been primary in turning the public : interest away from band music. He will, have no part in the weird sounds asso ciated with "bop." , In trumpet conversation he fa vors a full open-trumpet style. He dislikes the mute because "it spoils the trumpet sound." His showmanship is noteworthy especially when it means parading the band through the aisles of the theater. ligion: A Roman Catholic View", at 7:30 p.m. in Gerrard Hall.
