THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1953 Complete JP Photo and Wire Service FOUR PAGES TODAY Machines For Dorms Scheduled IDC Slates Snack, Cigarette Vendors "Additional vending machines will be placed in the dormitories according to the tastes of the resi dents," Interdorrrtitory Council President Walt Gurley announced last night in a meeting of the dormitory group. Gurley's announcement, flanked by a signed statement to the IDC by Student Government President Bob Gorham, was, as Gurley said, "... the culmination of long-time efforts of the IDC . . . and Student Body President Bob Gorham." Gbrham said in his statement, "This has been a project that has interested me greatly this year. I feel that Student Government has made a step forward in securing vending machines for dormitories. "1 was very pleased to work with Walt Gurley and the IDC in securing this service for students. Now that we have cleared the way for the machines, the matter will be handled by the IDC as t6 where to place them and what kind to get." Gurley suggested one cigarette machine be placed in each dorm, along with a machine dispensing crackers, candy ana chewing gum. Two or three soft drink machines should also be Cnstalled, he said, depending on the space available. The IDC president added that the " machines would be installed "without placing any in social rooms. The IDC is on record as opposed to commercializing them with machines," he stated. Gurley asked dorm representa tives to find out at their individual dorm meetings what type drinks are preferred, if the residents want cigarette and cracker-type ma chines and if the vendors can be installed outside social rooms and without blocking the halls. Summing up the IDC's action on the vending machines, Gurley said, "The addition of other pro ducts for dorm consumption has been the desire of residents for several years, and the IDC is pleased that its endeavor of the past years has proven fruitful to the advantage of the students."

Is Opposed By Phi The Philanthropic Assembly went on record this week as op posed to compulsory health insur ance for North Carolina. The bill to establish such insurance was voted down by the group amid cries of "socialism!" despite a sturdy defense by former student body president Ham Horton. Horton pointed out to the As sembly that the state already has certain compulsory insurance. All motorists, by law, must have acci dent liability insurance. Nobody Horton argued, calls that social ism. Compulsory health insurance, the small but vocal group in favor of the . bill argued, is no more socialistic than are the public schools. But Newcomer Nancy Hanes 'Loveslt' Y Is By Jennie Lynn An elderly man came into the Y office the other day, a pressed jacket and fresh tie over his arm. "Where can I take a shower?" he asked. He was very perplexed when Nancy Haines, new Y secretary, explained that there were no shower "facilities and suggested that he go to the gym. "No, I want to have a shower here," he said. . After a month and a half be hind the Y desk, Nancy -says, "This is a crazy place to work in . . . and I love it." The room in which she an swers the phone, keeps records, and sells Y directories is filled all day. Students bring cups of coffee and doughnuts in before' classes. They settle down to- read Bob Gorh As Trying By Richard Creed President Bob Gorham yester day blasted the Student Party for trying to "claim credit" for setting up a student-faculty evaluation system which he himself has been working on "since the 10th of No vember." "This is the last straw," he said. The Student Party is trying' to gain political glory once again by introducing another piece of su perfluous legislation." The Student Party three weeks ago introduced a bill calling for the establishing of. a system whereby students could evaluate their instructors and give sugges tions for improvements to depart ment heads. "I'm going to veto that bill if it passes," said Gorham. Manning Muntzing (SP) has ac cused me of doing nothing along the lines of faculty rating. Well, I haven't been running around seek ing publicity on the matter; I have been earnestly working with the, mechanics of the matter," said Gorham. Muntzing, who introduced the bill, yesterday said that Gorham had done nothing so far about set ting up evaluation, and that if Gorham didn't do it, he wanted to see the Legislature do it. Muntzing said yesterday, "I still say that Gorham has done nothing about setting up an evaluation sys tem. It seems that his committee (to look into the possibility of set ting up the system) has contacted only one administrative official, Mr. French of the administration office. WThat he has to do with evaluation, I have no idea." "What we need around this campus is more serious efforts in student government rather than so many publicity seeekers such as Manning' Muntzing," said Gorham. "This is the second time the SP, this year, has introduced a piece of careless legislation (the other one being the public relations bill which I was forced to veto because a similar project was already un derway)." "I sincerely hope that the Stu-j dent Party will give more thought to the betterment of student life here at Carolina and less to per sonal political glory," said Gor ham. ' Gorham's committee to set up Again and again during the de bate, however, the bill's opponents argued this way: "Socialism Is a creeping octo pus. Each time the government is given an opportunity to enter a field, they do. Then they consoli date their gains and look to new fields. "Those who are not farsighted enough to protect themselves should not be forced to do so." One opponent of ,the bill said, "If this reasoning persists, we will soon have compulsory teeth brushing enacted into law." The main bill of the evening drew no debate. It was a bill to establish a four-year curriculum for coeds. It got tabled for lack of opposition. Crqzy Place hometown papers or finish writ ing the last paragraph of an Eng lish theme. "I straighten the room early every morning. By noon the floor is cluttered with books, the .chairs are filled with coats and cameras that people don't want to fool with all day," she says. Nancy fixes the rides-wanted bulletin board and keeps articles found by students. A boy handed her a card before Thanksgiving, that read: "Wanted: ride to Carrboro. Will share expenses and help drive." When someone gives her an arWcle that he has found, Nancy asks the finder for his name and" address. "Lots of boys just sit around regularly, waiting for me to ask a girl's name and phone number," she says. "And many am Censures To Claim Credit President Charges Student Party Of Trying To Gain 'Political Glory7; SP Disagrees the evaluation program is made up of Harrison Dunlop, Jackie Brooks, Tom Fesperman, Rick Coker, and is headed by Ed McCurry. "They have been working hard on the project," said Gorham. "I've contacted Dean Lyons and have had a long conversation with him about evaluation," Muntzing said "These are the people-who should be contacted and not Mr. French. "As for my being a publicity seeker, if it's going to take pub UP-SP Struggle Is Possibility As Legislature Meets Tonight The University Party and the Student Party will probably lock horns in Legislature tonight over who will get credit for setting up a student faculty evaluation program, if and when it is set up. ' President Bob Gorham declared yesterday that he would veto the SP-sponsored bill now before leg - islature dealing with evaluation, if j it passes. Although both parties have vowed that they don't care who does it so long as it gets done, the SP has adopted the creation of such a program as a "major plank in its fall elections platform. The bill to create a legislative commit tee to set up the evaluation pro gram was introduced by Manning Muntzing (SP) in the last Legis lative session. Meanwhile, Gorham has said that he now has a committee in the process of setting up evalua tion, and that he was working on it at the time the SP-sponsored bill was introduced. Gorham pointed out that . he vetoed a SP bill earlier this year because it attempted to do some thing which his administration had already done, namely, to set up a public relations committee to pro mote student inteerst in student government. He said that the evai-( uation bill was similarly "super fluous legislation." lie indicated- also that if the bill passes, he will nevertheless con tinue his plans to set up the pro gram, even though a legislative committee may be doing the same thing. The bill introduced by Joel Fleishman (SP) to require that athletes maintain a minimum scho lastic average as high as that re quired of participants in student government will not be considered tonight. The bill is presently under study by the Ways and Means Committee and will come up for consideration next week. Student government participants are now required to maintain an overall C average on at least 27 semester hours for two semesters preceding their participation. Ath letes are required to have made half C's on 21 semester hours for two semesters preceding their ath letic participation. The bill would not require ath letes to make a minimum grade of C on every course taken. It would require that they maintain an overall average of one quality point, or C.

Her two telephones bring questions about dates of campus events, what time parades be gin, when Easter is going to be this year. One lady called last week, talked fifteen minutes about a room she wanted to rent, through the Y's cooperation. She told Nancy that it was a great ex pense for her to rent the room: clean hand towels, 4c a day, bath towels 7c and sheets 10c daily; "and I have to pipe heat into the room, and supply hot water, you know ... but I want to let someone have the room, you understand ... as a public ser vice."

"Bob Gorham has had three months to work on this and did very little until the bill was introduced in legislature, and he decided he had better make a few attempts at doing something," he continued. "If he's going to go ahead and do it, I say full speed ahead; if not, I want to see the Legislature to do it." The Legislature will act on the SP bill tonight. - Debate Board To Pick Squad For NY Meet The Debate Council this after noon will hold the first of a three round qualifying tournament ftf decide which two of the five de bate squads will represent Caro lina in a tournament at New York University on Dec. 11-12.
