The first campus-wide student,
rating of faculty members in eight
.years will get underway a week
from today.
Thirty-thousand evaluation
-sheets will be distributed between
45 and 11 p.m. next Wednesday.
The survey is being handled by
a special executive committee ap
pointed by President Bob Gorham.
Ed McCurry was named chairman
of the group.
McCurry said the committee has
consulted the University Testing
Center and various faculty mem
bers to make sure that the rating
will fulfill its purpose construc
tive analysis of each professor for
his benefit as well as that of the
student.
Each student will receive five
sheets on which he will grade his
last semester's professors on five
points: clarity of presentation, op
portunity for questions and dis
cussions, ability to arouse interest,
attitude in class toward students,
and attitude toward the subject.
Space will also be provided for a
course evaluation. The student
will not sign his name to the pa
per. McCurry stated that tests of this
nature have been used by other
institutions with success. "Carolina
can benefit a great deal from
these evaluations "if a serious atti
tude is taken . towards them," he
added. 'These rating sheets are not
intended to purge the professor,
but rather to give him construc
tive criticism."
Bob Gorham, shared McCurry's
enthusiasm. "If the proper attitude
is taken by both students and pro
fessors, this test can be a valuable
service to all concerned," he said.
Deadline Given
For Quarterly
Fiction Contest
The deadline for the Carolina
Quarterly fiction contest is only
two weeks away, Quarterly Editor
Charlotte Davis announced yester
day. CThe winner of the contest will
receive $50 and will have his story
published in the spring issue of
the Quarterly, which is scheduled
to appear on the campus May 15.
Since relatively few manuscripts
have been turned in to the Quar
terly office so far, the competition
is still wide open, and the Editor
asks all student writers to enter.
This is the fourth year a fiction
award has been offered by the
Quarterly. Last year no prize was
given because no worthy story was
submitted, but previous winners
have been Donald Betts and Joseph
Terrell, both former students at
the University.
This year's judges will be Paul
Green, Pulitzer Prize-winning play
wright, and James Street, best-;
selling novelist.
Any student in the Consolidated
University is eligible to enter the
contest. Manuscripts should be be
tween 1500 and 5000 words long,
and addressed to the Carolina
Quarterly Fiction Contest.
All entries should be typed and
unsigned, and the name of the au
thor should L'e. attached on a sep
arate sheet of papr.

on the
Political
Means, Ends, & That Sort Of Thing
From here on it's Tom Creasy, whom the University Party wants
for president, against Don Geiger, whom the Student Party wants
for the job.
With the election less than a month away, Messrs. Geiger and
. Creasy will be seen 'and heard everywhere. They'll probably spend
hours in Y Court, evenings in dorms, and the rest of the time writ
ing statements for the paper. And, some of the time, we trust, the
candidates will spend trying to figure out how to keep their cam
paign promises. . ,
Smile When You Say That
Politics aren't always the'serious business that we, and the cand
idates, like to make it. There is merit in the job being done by stu
dent government But the stumping politicos frequently take them
selves more seriously1, than' their jobs.
A speaker was extolling the electability of a coed candidate for
nomination at this week's Student Party gathering. "And she will
do anything for the party," declared the speaker. A voice (from the
back of the room, we presume) inquired, "Anything?"

Kuralt's prepared statement fur
ther stated, "I am for big-time
sports, I am for any-size sports,
which do not violate the purpose
of the University."
Peacock's previous statements
had asserted that athletics were
the chief issue in the campaign
and that Kuralt had not made his
stand clear.
Kuralt's statement said, in fur
ther answer to Peacock's statement
of two days ago, "We are not run
ning for sports editor or president
of the Carolina Athletic Associa
tion, despite the efforts of the op
position to turn the campaign into
that."
Kuralt enumerated his ideas of
the issues of the editorship race.
"We are running for editor of The
Daily Tar Heel," he said, "and the
issues are the literacy and experi
ence and qualifications of the can
didates. (The question is whether
The Daily Tar Heel is to be a free
student newspaper in which the
editor prints all views and himself
writes according to his conscience
or whether this newspaper is to be
something less than that."

these issues," the statement con

that he cannot meet the chal

Dr. Samuel T. Habel, minister

Church, was noncommittal, but
completely noncommittal, when
a reporter stopped. by his of
fice yesterday to ask his opin
ions on the current Baptist feud.
The Baptist student chaplain
here, the Rev. J. C. Herrin, works
through the local church. "What
effect will the attempt to fire
Herrin have on church unity?"
Dr. Habel was askecL.. .
The minister smiled, but his
rejoinder wasn't an answer or
even "no comment" "Have you
heard about the church's cen
tennial celebration?" Dr. Habel
asked. "It's coming up next
month, you know."
After a few friendly exchanges
on the subject of the centennial,
the reporter tried again. "How
do you feel about the action
of the committee in deciding to
ask Mr. Herrin to resign?"
"We're having all the living ex
ministers of the church back
next month to speak," Dr. Habel
said. "The Playmakers are going
to do a play for us . . ."
It went on this way for twen-

UP Picks Edwards
Secretary; Leonard
Treasurer Choice
By Louis Kraar
It took the University Party 20
seconds last night to acclaim Tom
Creasy as its presidential nominee.
The UP took another minute , to
acclaim Jane Edwards for secre
tary and Reuben Leonard for
treasurer. .-'''
Jackie Parks and Cornell Wright
were nominated as co-editors of
the Yackety-Yack. This nomina
tion was made late in the meeting,
since a question arose over the
legality of co-editors.
UP. Chairman Jack Stevens ex
plained the rapid . nominations as
"an indication of the complete
recognition by the party of the un
matched qualities of our candi
dates." One veteran observer pointed
out that this was the first time
such major candidates were picked
by acclamation since the two-party
system was established on campus
in 1936.
Creasy, who was orientation
chairman last fall, accepted the
nomination for the top executive
post saying: "I pledge to you to

Kuralt Names
Two Managers
For Campaign
Charles Kuralt, candidate for the
editorship of The Daily Tar Heel,
has named Ken Penegar and Phin
Horton as joint campaign manag
ers. In making the announcement
Kuralt said, "I am pleased to an
nounce the active support of these
two outstanding campus leaders,
who in over three years at the Uni
versity, have earned the respect of
their own parties, the opposition,
and independent voters alike.
"We will conduct a campaign for
a complete Daily Tar Heel, one
with improved coverage and cir
culation, with outstanding news
and sports presentation, and a free
and lively editorial page. Aside
from this, we will make few pro
mises; we will concentrate on
newspaper excellence."
Horton lost little time in jump
ing in the fray, with the following
statement to the Daily Tar Heel;
"Peacock has again contradicted
himself. He states now that he
would censure the Administration
on the Saturday class issue, but
last week he felt that any stand
of the Editor which contradicted
the Administration's policies was
endangering the freedom of the
Tar Heel.
"Why doesn't Peacock make up
his mind on what he believes in
and what he wants to do if he is
elected?"
