DOUGLAS . , ., photo by Fabian Bachrach Justice Douglas To Talk Tonight Slated For Pro 1 duct ion No Big Changes Seen In Selective Service Col. F. C. Shep3rd, advisor to UNC veterans, announced yester day there have been no major changes in Selective Service regu lations for students eligible for service in the armed forces. 1 According to the bulletin of regulations issued Colonel Shep ard,' these are the clasifications as they stand now: Class I-D, for students in the KROTC and AFROTC who meet the requirements for deferment. They are considered "persons in military" and not "students" in the normal sense of the word; Class I-S, for persons who have never been deferred as students in Class I-S; Class II-S, for . students who have completed more than one year of residence work in an in stitution of higher learning (2 se mesters) and who meet the mini mum requirements set up by the Selective Service System. The summer session, according to the bulletin, does not count as a portion of the four years to which a student is entitled to de ferment under regulatons. How ever, the bulletin states, if a stu dent is entitled to deferment for the next school year, his defer ment is valid through the summer vacaton. A student whose school year ends in June said the bulletin, should be sure to request defer ment for the next year, and should report to Colonel Shepard's of fice to fill out the proper form, to be sent to his local draft board. This should be done before the student leaves for summer vaca tion, according to the Bulletin. Colonel Shepard said the only change in Selection Service law pertains to graduate students who must now be in the upper 25 per cent o their class for the last un dergraduate year or attain a score of 80 on the Selective Service College Qualification Test.

The modernized German- version of the English Renaissance drama, Everyman, will be given by the tfNCDept. of German as its con tribution to the Easter spirit to morrow at 8:30 p.m. in the Play makers Theatre.

An exception to the all-student rule will be the appearance of Miss Irmgard Roth a .Fulbright exchange student from Stuttgart, Germany, who has the role of Good Works. Dr. Reichert explained the Jed-erman- version to be presented was written by the famous Aus trian poet, Hugo von Hofmanns thal, and has been presented for many years at the Salzburg Sum mer Theater Festival. "Appropriate to the Easter sea son," Dr. Reichert said, "the time less story of Everyman tells of the rich man who learned in his final hour that power and wealth were of little avail, but that Christ had died to redeem just such sinners as he, if ony they would repent and believe." A grant from the German con sul in Atlanta, on behalf of his government, has been used to fur nish elaborate technical effects and staging, in which the Depts. of Dramatic Art and Muse, and the UNC Communication Center are collaborating for the performance.
