Deliver' li Offices In Graham Authority an i ii u Legislature Of Public "The greatest forum for public expression is the legislative body, which serves as the voice of de mocracy," John D. Larkins said last night at inaugural ceremonies of the Philanthropic Literary So ciety. Larkins, who is legislative coun sel to the Governor, chairman of the State Legislature's Advisory Budget Commission and State De mocratic Chairman, spoke at the installation of spring semester of ficers for the Phi, one of two de- 24 Tried By Men's Council "During the fall semester a to tal number of 24 cases, some in volving more than one person, were turned over to the Men's Honor Council . . ." according to a report given yesterday by Og burn Yates, clerk of the Council. "Of those cases which involved infractions of the Honor Code, eight students were suspended and two were placed on proba tion," said the report. "An official reprimand was given to one stu dent, and an unofficial reprimand was given to another." For violations of the Campus Code, the report said, "Three stu dents were given official repri mands, and three were given un official reprimands." According to the clerk's report, 21 students appearing before the Honor Council during last semes ter were found not guilty of viola tions of either the Campus or Hon or Codes. p x i . . . I oeve" luuenis were removea rom probation, and three were reinstated back into the Univer- . sity," said the report "In one case heard by. the Coun cil," according to the report, "the defendant plead not guilty of al tering his examination. However, the evidence presented, as well as the testimony of the instructor, proved to be so incriminating that the defendant was found guilty, and the sentence of suspension was rendered." "In another case," concluded the report, "because of its nature, the defendant was referred to a University psychiatrist, and after examination, it was recommended that he leave school." 6) Number One : y l 'V jfrr-f "ni'miiminMr i imiwiiinrn-.r-r - Big long Cadillac pulled up in front of Woollen Gym the other night.

Is Voice La r kins bating societies at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. Frank Warren, Jr., Snow Hill, is new Phi speaker, succeeding Louis Brumfield of Yadkin ville. Other officers installed includ- j ed Lawrence Matthews, Winston- Salem, speaker pro tern; Harold Downing, Fayetteville, parliamen tarian; John Curtis, Bessemer City, critic; Dick Albert, Santa Fe, N. Mex., clerk, and Hill John ston, Noroton Conn., sergeant-at-arms. Larkins, who is also a member of the Visiting Committee of the University Board of Trustees, em phasized that without the ability of self-expression, "a man can not rise above himself of even, ex press what is actually within him Without it he wastes himself in a vacuum." Ability to express convictions comes only with practice, as is stressed by the Phi and other col legiate debating societies, Lar-I kins added. "If I had my college days to relive, I would spend more time on public speaking and other expressive activities, and less time on fraternity and social life. '"'Clear senf -expression, essen tial to every man's success regard less of profession, is doubly im portant in a legislative body where elected representatives express not only their own ideas, but those of their constituents. Were it not f&f such media of expression as a legislative body, even the Uni versity here would not have been founded," Larkins said. He compared a person who pos sesses education but no self-expressive powers to the Dead Sea "whose waters have become stag nant, lifeless and of no value The sea takes all it can receive but can give out nothing, expres sionless, motionless and dead." Larkins challenged the society members, as they acquire their education, to "resolve to lead out from ourselves, expression oi thought and pass it on to others for their enlightenment and edi fication." " ' A reception honoring the guest speaker was held in Graham Me morial main lounge following ther- inaugural address and ceremonies. Larkins, a native of Trenton, is a graduate of Wake Forest College.
