I don't want any Independent Bill Brown, chair- question rising out of my next man of President Bob Gorham's ' report. Orientation study committee, yes terday censured the Student Party members on his committee who refused to sign, his report last week. Explaining why he thought SP opposition to his report arose, Brown said, "The SP feels it nec essary to appear to be the savior of dorm men. Even though the party is filled with high-ranking fraternity men, and even though they haven't run a non-fraternity man on their big slate but once in three years, they still must ap pear to be the dorm man's friend." "I thought the SP was interested in keeping Orientation from being dragged through the mud. Insteafl they pounce on an insignificant paragraph of a report concerning it," said Brown. Joel Fleishman and Don Geiger, SP members of the UP-SP com mittee, refused to sign Brown's report because it stated, "As re gards fraternity loading on the ( Orientation) committee and among the counselors, the com mittee has no findings. That is to say, I think, that neither the com mittee nor the counselors were purposely selected because of their extra-curricular participation. Al though this area of work has nbt been explored very thoroughly, 1 think this is a safe assumption to make." Fleishman and Geiger objected to the paragraph since the com mittee had not discussed whether Gorham ' had shown partiality to ward fraternity men in selecting the Orientation counselors this year, as Student Party Chairman Gene Cook had charged prevlBus- ly. Cook Signs Cook, also a member of the study committee, signed the re port but said that Fleishman and Geiger were "right" in objecting to the paragraph. Accusing the SP of using the committee for political purposes, Brown said, "Obviously someone; has an eye on the ensuing (fall) j elections." j The committee was set up by Gorham as a "non-partisan group to study and evaluate the Orienta tion program." " "They (the SP) fail to point out that they agree with the greater majority of the report concerning Orientation," said Brown. Actual- ly, Fleishman agreed to sign the report two weeks ago if the para graph to which he objected wtre taken out. And Brown agreed to take it out, actually striking it off a copy of the report at which he and Brown were looking. But Gor ham refused to accept the report if the passage were deleifted. Brown put the paragraph back in, and Geiger joined Fleishman in refusing to sign the report. "They fail to point out that they helped draw up the constitutional amendment now before Legisla ture," said Cook. The amendment, introduced to Legislature by Brown last week as a result of the study by the committee, provides that the chairman of the Orientation Committee be appointed by the outgoing president before Febru ary 15. Previously the incoming president appointed the chairman, who would serve during his admin istration. It provides also that the Orien tation Committee members be se ' lected by a committee composed of the chairmen of the IDC, the IFC, the Phi, and the Orientatioh Committee. Previously the presl: dent has appointed the committee. The bill calling for the amend ment will be considered in Legis lature Thursday. If passed it will be voted on by the student body in fall electionns. "Those attacking that small paragraph in my report knew full well they would have an oppor tunity to take the question up again in the committee. Instead they preferred to make their ac cusations to the press," said Brown. "Well, we're going to meet this week and get the question settled unce and for all. I hope none of i :.. .;n tta "iVicPTit. from "This should indicate that I have no intention of resigning as com mittee chairman. If Bob Gorham, who appointed me, wants to re sign me, that's his prerogative, al though I have heard of no dis content from him.".

Prestige, But No Money Says Magazine Editor By Ann Pooley , Miss Leslie Felker of Mademoi selle Magazine spoke yesterday afternoon at a tea given by . the YWCA in her honor. Miss Felker, who holds the position of Assist ant College Editor on the magazine, is visiting several schools in order to arouse interest in Mademoiselle's annual College Board contest. Miss Felker's busy day at Caro lina included attending a creative writing class, talking with several professors, and dropping in ona rehearsal of the Playmakers' next production, "In Borrowed Time."' A native of New York City, Miss Felker graduated from the Uni versity of Arizona in 1951 after attending Duke University for a year and tne university ot z,uncn Switzerland, Columbia, and the ' suruuunt; in Paris. She was an i English Literature major. The Mademoiselle College Board Contest is open to all girls under 26 who are attending accredited colleges. To enter, each girl must. write a criticism approximately 1500 words in length, on one of the Fall issues of the magazine. "This 'try-out' is not too im portant for the contestants,, but it is valuable to the magazine, as we get a cross-country criticism of Mademoiselle this , way," Miss Felker said. About 80 per cent of the girls who try out are asked to write three assignments during the first months of the year. Each assign ment consists of writing on two : questions which are chosen from a list published in the magazine. One prize of $50 and nine SPO awards are made for each assign ment period. From the girls who write assign ments, 20 "guest editors" are chosen in the spring. They spend the month of June working in New York on the August issue of Mademoiselle. Their transportation' ' to and from New York is paid, as I is part of their hotel rent. They also receive a salary. The month in New York is not' all work, for the guest editors are treated to movie previews, plays, fashion shows, tours, parties, and meetings with celebrities. , Miss Felker said that the con test is valuable experience for any one interested in going into the publications field. Mademoiselle keeps files on girls who try out, and sends information on 50 run-ners-up to several publications, j She said, "Salaries are pretty low. in publications. We get the glory and prestige, not the money." She also discussed a fiction con test which is held in the Spring. Two North Carolina girls won top honors in it last year, and she feels that this is definitely "signifi cant." Miss Felker's first full time job was with the Women's Wear Daily in New York. She had worked 'On college newspapers before ' her graduation. She said that there are always jobs open on Mademoiselle because "the staff is largely, made up-of young people who stop working to get married or have a family." years ago, when Marie was only the Blessed Virgin at the quints' But she added, "You have to start on the bottom and work up. Typ ing is essential. Mademoiselle likes to promote people on the staff before bringing in someone new." She said that entering the con test gives "unlimited "opportuni ties" and almost insures some kin3 of job" jfor the girls who try out. "Experiencer Of course, is very valuable, and we always like the girl who works in the summer in stead of lying around on the beach."

ErickSon's comments were prompted by a Daily Tar Heel editorial which called for Caro lina's withdrawal from the "big money arena" of college sports. Erickson said, "I am sorry the editor of The Daily Tar Heel feels as he does about inter collegiate athletics. "We are fortunate in having a free student press at Chapel Hill, and the editor is entitled to express his opinions. "We feel that we have a sound and healthy intercollegiate ath letic program at the university." Di Will Debate On 1-Vote Veto Of UN Tonight A bill abolishing the. single- nation veto in the Security Coun-; The current wave of social room cil of the United Nations will be debated by the Dialectic Senate tonight in New West at 8 o'clock. The bill, to be introduced by Senator James L. McElroy, calls for the U.N. Charter to be amend ed in 1955 "so as to require the affirmative votes of any four of the great powers on the Security Council for a decision of that body to be vaild." Since a U.N. Charter revisional conference will be held in 1955, recommendations for changes should now be discussed, the or ganization's leaders say; The vari ous delegations can. in that way, determine public opinion on pro opsed changes before the meeting and decide their . nation's stands. Proponents of the bill to be de-8:30 in Memorial Hall. bated tonight by the Di say that the veto power has been misused by the delegation of the Soviet Union and that possibilities of united action against aggression have been lessened by it. In July, 1950, when the UN came to the aid of the RepuDlic of South Ko rea, the Russian delegates were absent from the international or ganization and this alone, it is believed, prevented their use of the veto to stop intervention. Opponents of the proposal argue that the veto power of a nation can prevent measures which would harm its sovereignty. They say the United States has much to lose il the other nations on the Council "gang up" on her. They also argue that doing away with this power is a step toward world government.
