Walla Resigns GM Job Effective Start Of Fall Term By LOIS OWEN Jim Wallace, for two years di rector 5 of Graham Memorial, has announced his resignation. Wallace's resignation will be effective at the beginning of the fall - semester. It came at a re cent meeting of the Graham Me morial Board of Directors. The Board of Directors will try to find a permanent director for GM, Wallace said yesterday. Board President Tom Creasy will appoint a selection committee, made up of faculty, administration and students, for the purpose of find ing a new director. '. i The board approved a salary increase of approximately $6,000 or $7,000, provided a suitable di rector may be found. It was decided at the meeting that Director Wallace should at- 4 tend the regular convention of the Association of College Un ions at White Sulphur . Springs, W. Va. for the special purpose of looking around for a new direc tor. One student will be chosen to accompany Wallace. Wallace yesterday remarked on a number of improvements that might be attempted by GM, should it have a new director and suf ficient funds. For instance, a patio might be built in back of the Rendezvous Room, the basement darkroom could be revampeds, better usfe could be rriade of the old Veter ans' Club in the back of Lenoir Hall and the facilities in Cobb's basement could be managed by GM, said "Wallace. He also suggested that the lec ture series be improved. r .3 m n n IIUUG Raisin Says nf Lea i si DIM Broke atme Talks State T uifion; C o'ntract By NEIL BASS A resolution was introduced, but not voted on, at last night's meet ing of the student Legislature ask ing that he group go on record as "opposing any tuition raises" for out-of-state students at UNC. The resolution,, introduced by the' University Party, called such action (tuition hike) a "discrimin ating influence." The state Legis lature announced near the begin ning of this session that increased dormitory room rents were being "considered" as a possible fund source. According to a report given at Wednesday night's meeting of the Interdormitory Council by Lewis Brumfield, talks with slate officials have "indicated" that the dorm rent hike proposal will go through. Brumfield is a member of the UNC committee appointed to fight the proposal. The resolution, brought to the attention of the Legislature by Homesley Will Be Able To Run For Position- The question about whether or not T. C. (Country) Homesley will be able to run as a write-in candidate for head cheerleader has been settled. He can. Patsy Daniels, chairman of the Elections Board, said that Ray Jefferies, assistant to the Dean of Student Affairs, looked over Homesley's record and has okay ed him as a write-in candidate. Homesley, who has promised to "raise hell next year if elected," said that "next year is a make or break year at Carolina. We need a head cheerleader who will get enthusiasm and yells out of the students." t In Consolidated University Night Program Miss Dolores Mills, above; will sing in Saturday night's Consoli dated University festivities at Woman's College in Greensboro." Miss Mills will take part on a talent program. A dance will be held to morrow night. : ; ' Juilion Study Set 4th Fair Slated By B. A. Frat ' The fourth annual Business Fair, sponsored as a service-to-school project by Alpha Kappa Psi J professional business administra tion fraternity, has been set for April 27-28 in Carroll Hall, with the theme of "Wings, Wheels and Rudders, the Story of the Ameri can Transportation System." Kenneth Argo, Kannapolis sen ior, new president of Alpha Kap pa Psi and chairman of arrange ments for the fair, and Dr. J. C. D. Blaine, UNC professor of transportation and faculty advis or, jointly announced the plans for the yearly event. Brumfield Still Wants To Help With Cheers Louis Brumfield, newly-elected president of the Interdormitory Council, said he still intends to "go out for the cheerleading squad" in a statement made yes terday, in which he explained why he withdrew from the head cheerleader race after being el ected to the IDC post. Brumfield gave three reasons for his withdrawal. He said that being both IDC president and head cheerleader would be "al most a physical impossibility," that he is "not familiar with the duties of head cheerleader to the extent which I feel is necessary to serve the students in this ca pacity" and he feels "that my work in the IDC would be very rewarding." . The new IDC head added, "... I believe that I am familiar enough with the situation in the dormi tories to work for them." Brumfield expressed his appre ciation to the students who had offered support in his campaign for head cheerleader.

New York as mam Candidate Collision For Bigger, Better Rallies "There is no such thing as a lack of Carolina spirit," said can didate for head cheerleader Collie Collison yesterday. "The spirit is here but the stu dents need better opportunities to show it, namely in the form of bigger and better pep rallies," ad ded Collison. "I for one would like to see more good, clean, hell-raising like that which occurred at the Maryland pep rally two years ago," he continued. "Another thing I want to see," said Collison, "is a pre-game pa rade on the order of those at the Army-Navy games, but carried out on a smaller less expensive scale." Collison said he is not a Univer sity Party candidate for head cheer leader. "The UP, as I. understand, went on record favoring my elec tion ... I greatly appreciate the support of the UP," he said, "but I am not a UP candidate. I am an independent. "I am for and with the students," continued Collison. "There should be no such thing as a political cheerleader. If elected I will not be one." A publication in The Daily Tar Heel of the record of each presi dential candidate' was requested yesterday by the campaign mana ger , tor h.a McUurry, University Party presidential candidate. The Daily Tar Heel replied to Taylor that it would publish rec ords of the three candidates. In the statement in which he made his request, Taylor said, "My basic objective in this campaign is to get the students to use their common sense and good judge ment, both of which require that the student body know essentially the . same, information about the various candidates that an employ er wants to know about prospec tive employees." -Taylor said an employer knows that a person's past record in the best way of telling what he will most likely do in the future. Hr added " . . . the same thing is true in campus politics. Indeed the various candidates' statements in favor of things we all favor and in opposition to things we al? oppose are relatively unimportant when compared with the actua1 records of those candidates," he said. ' Taylor has said that he has tried to make his candidates record fa miliar to the students, but that financial limitations prevent print ing enough copies for each stu dent. He said that by having the three candidates' records publish ed in the paper, the students will have "some basis for making a comparison of the respective can didates and using their common sense and good judgement in se lecting the best qualified among them." "Of course, I make this request with full assurance that such a comparison of actual records will result in victory for Ed McCurry, concluded Taylor. ! "Tar Heel Jobs for Tar Heel Grads" was the topic last year, when R. D.- Harwick, Raleigh, president of the State Associa tion of Chambers of Commerce, headed the list of speakers. "The concept of the business fair," I1 Blaine said, "is one: which has- been highly commend ed by educators and businessmen alike for its wide educational val ue, as well as for the experience gained by those who participate in its planning- and execution. "The service is not only to the j school but to the entire Univers ity and to the state at large," he added. The "Wings, wheels and rud ders" approach is believed to be the first presentation of this type in the United States, Argo explained. m f IN CAMPUS ELECTIONS: JUNE ESCHEWEILLER (Back) AND BOBBIE LEE MORETZ - .' . . in scene from Saturday Stranger Stranger7 Plans Underway Earlier this season another of nis piays, rrienus, was jjicscuicu j mi wiv. ioiouimihuu i a siuuciu in the Playmakers Theater as a union," similar to Graham Memor- SAYS McCURRY: Nothing On Segregation "Like my opponents, I have no thing to say either." That's presidential candidate Ed McCurry's stand on segregation. The University Party candidate was asked his stand on the question of segregation in the public schools, es were candidates Manning Munt zing (Student Party) and Don Fow ler (Independent). Wednesday Muntzing said he hoped the "stu dent body and student government will work together to meet the situation." Fowler said segregation "must be studied carefully before any dras tic action is taken." McCurry, who dismissed the question with "nothing to say ei" ther," had something, to say about a rumored increase in student fees. "It is my firm belief," said Mc Curry, "that before such an in crease can be made, the questioa must be brought directly before the student body in the form of a Students To Vote On Atty. General's Job Four proposed amendments to the student Constitution will be placed before the campus in Tuesday's election. One, j introduced in student Legislature iMarch 10, would place cer tain duties on the Attorney General of student government. The amendment in full follows. Other amendments will be published later. . A BILL TO AMEND THE OFFICIAL STUDENT CONSTITUTION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA Whereas: The powers of the office of Attorney General are nothing more than advisor to the president of the student body, and Whereas: An office of this nature with such limited power is super fluous, and Whereas: There are only limited means for the investigation and prose cution of offenses and offenders of the student Constitution of the University of North Carolina, and - Whereas: In the immediate past there have been flagrant Constitutional violations which have persisted uncorrected because of the confusion and multiple channels through which prosecution must proceed be fore reaching the Student Council; , - NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ENACTED BY THE STUDENT LEGISLA- referendum." . 1 TURE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, .THAT McCurry noted that last year a i Art. 1 That the following paragraph be added to Article H, section 5, 1 Saturday Stranger, a new play j by Joseph Rosenburg, g!.duate student in the department of dra matic art, will be the next full length production of The Carolina Playmakers, announced a spokes man for the group yesterday.

Jim Martin of the UP, stated that such "discriminating" action would not be conducive toward encourag ing out-of-state students to attend the University. It further stated that out-of-state students had made a definite contribution to the Uni versity. In gist, the resolution brought to the front the fact that many stu dents not from North Carolina would be denied the chance to min gle and to disseminate in their home regions the knowledge and mode of life acquired from thi3 University and from North Caro lina if the state Legislature's de cided to pass such law. It went on to imply that North Carolina as a whole would be sold short if a "tax" (meaning the tui tion raise) was levied on the oppor tunities of peoples from the same Democratic country (but from the different states) to intermingle'and promote good relationships for all involved. In conclusion the resolution im plied that a disadvantageous situa tion would be created for the state if the state Legislature "dis criminated" and levied funds from only out-of-state students, thus in hibiting the freedom of people from I all corners of the United States ' to "peaceably assemble" and ac quire an education. In other action of the session, the chairman of the committee "investigating" The Daily Tar Heel introduced a bill which, according to Charles Hyatt, grew out of the student-publication's "violation" of a contract.' The bill calls for a "legal author ity" to review all student govern ment contracts exceeding $100 be fore final approval of them is an nounced. Apparently this was aim ed at what Hyatt, member of the investigating committee, called the "discovery" of a contract compel ling The Daily Tar Heel to make a door-to-door delivery of news papers. This was one of the main kicks that the student Legislature had at its recent session during which it 6et up the investigating committee. Hyatt went on to say that The Daily Tar Heel circulation depart ment was being paid for such door-to-door service and was not keep ing its bargain. The third bill introduced at the final session before elections calls part of a series of student one act plays. The cast includes . Martha Dow, June Eschweiler, Len Bullock, Harvey Whetstone, Gene Over beck and Bobbie Lee Moretz. lal, at Victory Village. Quarterly Deadline According to an announcement made yesterday by Jim Dunn, editor of the Carolina Quarterly, only one week remains for on tries to be made in the Quarter ly's Fiction Contest. th ie Ballot Box $3 raise in student fees was made by the student Legislature. The UP candidate said an additional raise should be done by and with ap proval of the students. , "If elected, I would veto a bill of this nature if it were not first placed before the students in. the form of a referendum," said McCurry. of the Official Student Constitution of the University of North Caro lina: It shall also be the duty -of the Attorney General to investigate, gather evidence against and prosecute any and all offenders of the official student constitution of the University of North Carolina. (For this amendment offenders may take the form of individuals, groups or organizations under the auspices ofthe student constitu tion.) . . Art II. This amendment upon passage by the student Legislature shall be put to the student body for approval in the next special or regular election authorized by the student Legislature. Politicians, as we have found out in covering small-town courts, murder the king's Eng lish. In the mill of campaign state ments turned in to The Daily Tar Heel, rewriters have found such words as "coart" for court, "ax is" of access and "partizan" for partisan. In politicians' written state ments, here and elsewhere, nine tenths of the words are capitaliz ed. It would be as unpardonable for a campus politician to spell Student Body or 'Student Gov ernment or Administration with lower-case letters than for a county lawyer to slip up ' and spell Highway highway, or Com missioner commissioner. And you can bet every one of them would like to spell voter Voter. Nice Elections Board Chair man Patsy Daniels had ' a few statements of her own yesterday. Miss Daniels warned candi dates, and candidates' friends, not to place posters on trees, not to use Scotch tape on walls and not to move a poster to put ano ther one up. Violaters, said Miss Daniels, will be prosecuted by the Honor Council. Violations may be re ported to her or another mem ber of the Elections Board. FIVE DAYS UNTIL ELECTIONS Davis (Dusty) Lamson, last year's Elections Board chair man, said yesterday that T. C. (Country) Homesley's campaign for head cheerleader is not the first write-in campaign on record-. "There have been several write-in campaigns," said Lam son. "I am familiar with several during the four years I have been here." Lamson said the Elections Board in the past has thrown the candidate out because his grades weren't checked, and he didn't submit an expense account." The elections law says "no cam paign literature of any type shall be permitted within a radius of 50 feet of the ballot boxes. "No person shall endeavor to advaqce the interest of any can didate within 50 feet of the pol ling places. "No person shall station any sound mechanism for the pur pose of advancing the interest of any candidate within hearing distance of any polling place. "There shall be no commercial ization, such as distribution of sample cigarets, pamphlets, etc., within 50 feet of the polls." The presidential candidates' ap parent refusal to skate out on segregation's thin ice was to be expected. A. softer campaign coulda't have happened. F. P. I! ia IP! liy
