'Rotten' Apples
Good Overshadovs Evil
On Gridiron: Vol Prexy
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Nov.
(;p)Dr. C. E. Brehm, Univers
ity of Tennessee president, said
today he believes the good fea
tures of college football "over
shadows the bad."
"There are phases of the sport
that are not good and should be
corrected," he declared. "Im
provements are being made and
-will continue to be made. All of
us interested in the sport must
work to that end."
Dr. Brehm's views on the sport
were contained in a letter he
wrote Bob Mathias, former Stan
ford University fullback who quit
football this season with a blast
that it had become "big business"
and had lost its appeal as a sport
for the men who play it.
The U-T president made public
today a letter he wrote Mathias
last Sept. 1.

"No boy is coerced into playing
football," Dr. Brehm wrote. "He
does it of his own volition, with a
knowledge of all the facts. The
boys must like it or they would
not be playing."
While admitting there are some
evils in football, the educator
wrote Mathias:

Committee
Reports
Legislature In Party
Fight On Orientation
By Richard Creed
Bill Brown,, chairman of the
presidentially appointed commit
tee to study orientation, presented
the committee's report to the stu
dent Legislature last night.
Student Party members Joel
Fleishman and Don Geiger, who
are both on the committee said
yesterday that they would not ac
cept the report as it stands. Fleish
man refused to 'sign it. Geiger,
who has signed the report, indi
cated that he "would withdraw His
name.
Geiger and Fleishman refused
to accept the report, written by
Brown iir the first person because
it states that while the committee
"has my findings" on the "load
ing" of' the orientation committee
with fraternity men, Brown says,
"I thinfc that neither the commit
tee nor the counselors were pur
posely selected . because of their
extra-curricular participation."
"Although this area of work has
not been explored very thorough
ly, I think this is a safe assump
tion to make."
The committee was set up over
two weeks after Student Party
Chairman Gene Cook had charged
Gorham with giving fraternities an
"allotment" of orientation coun
selors and with instituting a "re
gime that is of, by and for fra
ternities." Cook Stipulations
Cook and Gorham met and de
cided that Gorham should set up
the orientation study committee.
Cook made the stipulations that
equal numbers of each party be
appointed to the committee, that
his charges be answered satisfac
torily by the committee, and that
the committee's finding be open
to the press. Cook was assigned
to the committee and signed its
report yesterday, but was not
available for comment.
Gorham said yesterday that the
committee was set up to prevent
orientation from becoming a "po
litical football." Later he said that
it was not set up to answer Cook's
charges but "to study the orienta
tion set up and its current pro
gram." "The whole project resulted
from a sincere desire by the exec
utive office to take inventory of
its orientation committee and to
clear up various misunderstand
ings," said Gorham. "It was felt
that a thing as important and vital
to Student welfare as orientation
should not be dragged through
orharn
the inevitable mua or po mes. oM fashioned square
"A non-partisan committee was. This hoe
set up. and this report has evolved. , real Uye
As far as I can see, the question ' . . . cnnn!nrPf1
of Orientation and any misunder
standings thereof are settled.
Brown Statement
Brown said, "The committee was
not set up to answer Cook's charg
es. We were set up to evaluate
the orientation program and make
suggestions for any improvements
we found necessary. If Cook's
charges are answered at all it will
be done in the course of our work
and not done with that purpose

SSL Delegates Not
Attached To Government
President Bob Gorham yester
day modified a story in The Daily
Tar Heel which said that UNC del
egates to the State Student Legis
lature "represent the University's
Student Government."
Gorham pointed out that SSL
representatives are not necessarily
connected with any student gov
ernment. "The SSL is made up of
interested students from univer
sities and colleges in North Caro
lina whether they are connected
with student government or not,"
he said.
The State Student Legislature
will meet in Raleigh, November
19-21.
SIX PAGES TODAY
concerning a minor- epidemic of
rooms.
and lamps stolen from Whitehead
-uormitory, both Everett and Ay-
cock Dorms have reported thefts
of lamps and chairs.
Manning Muntzing, president of
Aycock, said of the disappearance
of a lamp and a chair: "We have
no idea where they went. They're
not in the dorm, at least."
It was also reported yesterday
that some boys, when moving out
of Cobb basements, stacked their
clothes in their dresser drawers
to facilitate moving to their new
rooms, and forgot to return the
drawers. ,
Director of Operations J. S. Ben
nett said that he had not heard
of the removal of the drawers,
though the practice had occurred
in past years. He said that ru?h
"borrowing" renders the dressers
"completely useless:"'
Bennett agreed that the social
room thefts were apparently not
the work of dormitory students.
"It probably happens early in the
morning," he said". "It would be
easy for someone to back his car
up to the door about two or three
in the morning, go in, and take
what he wants.
"If we can get the boys' coopera
tion,, and keep the rooms locked

Dorms Having

The Interdormitory Council, in
its regular meeting this week, vot

social rooms and heard President
Walt Gurley announce plans for
the Notre Dame game weekend.
The move to lock social rooms
was prompted by the disclosure
that furniture has been reported
missing from several across the
campus. Defeat for the motion
came after a lengthy discussion.
Gurley revealed tentative plans
for an open house in each of the
men's dorms when the Irish invade
