Hester's group reported reha bilitation "is now being handled in an effective manner for the most part," that the five penalties now in use are "satisfactory for most cases" and that "since there were so few rules for the women al ready," most coed cases "should still go to the Women's Council." The committee suggested spring meetings of " a group composed of the chairmen of each court" to "evaluate the progress and ef fectiveness of the year's work." REMINDERS Under the topic of "Reminders," the committee proposed a manual "prepared for all members of the. various courts" which would in clude "all portions of the student Constitution relating to the ju dicial branch of student govern ment," newly-passed Constitution amendments and "other such per tinent information relative to ju dicial bodies ... to define prece dents and 'general court proce dure," ' O iffee GRAY Monday Webster. , The selection committee is composed of Dean of Women Katherine Carmichael, Assis tant to the' Dean of Student Af fairs Ray Jeff eries, retiring pre- sident of the student body Tom Creasy, retiring chairman of Women's Orientation Miss Lu anne Thornton, retiring chair man of the Women's Honor Council Nancy Whisnant, and Miss Webster. ; Presiding will be Miss Martha May,, president of Kappa Delta, and Miss Babbie Dilorio, retir ing president Harry Caplan, Cornell University, a mediaeval commentary on "The torica and Herennium."

FOR SMOOTHNESS AND P Tiers "The bylaws of the various courts could also be included, so that courts like the Men's and wo men's Councils could be more familiar with the workings of the courts," said the report. "The Stu dent Council would have a com plete list of all the bylaws of the lower courts in case a problem arose concerning practices not specifically enumerated in the Constitution." The committee recommended that council members visit new faculty members to explain work ings of Carolina's Honor System, that "the heads of various de partments should orient their pro fessors and instructors" and that current faculty members should be refreshed in Honor System procedures. ORIENTATION Fall orientation was a major consideration of the investigating committee. Hester's group recom mended "comprehensive tests" on honor procedure for orientation counselors, a written test and greater explanation of plagiarism and of methods of running for Honor Council seats, and exten sion of the present Honor Code pledge to read "I , have neither Youbi a N Mem New orja n 1 mm n i Dance To End GM's Birthday An informal dance tonight in the - Carolina Inn Ballroom will wind up' the week-long celebra tion of Graham Memorial's 23rd birthday.

Campus and Honor Codes be printed on backs of identification cards in order to "help to re mind us that we are expected to live by this, the Carolina Way of Life." - The committee urged profess ors and instructors to "respect the honesty of their students by leaving the classroom during quizzes as is. recommended by the Honor System policy. "Should the instructor feel that his presence is necessary in order to answer questions about the quiz," the report said, "he may use his discretion, but he should mention his policy to his students at the beginning of each course and just before the first quiz for those who missed the briefing in the rush of 'Drop-Add'." Hester's group recommended that signs, stating "Your Honor Is Our System," "It Does Make a Difference Our Honor System" and "It's Your Honor System Keep It," might be "useful in helping a normally honest person who was on the verge of cheating remember that honesty is the ex 'pected code of behavior at Caro llina and that it's far. better to even Ifail an exam than to cheat." oard; 4 4 V.' 4.

Honor MECHANICS Under the topic of "Mechanics," the committee recommended that student government Attorney Gen eral serve as prosecuting attorney in Honor Council cases, if "a per son xmtslde the pertinent council could represent the accused as de fense attorney." It was concluded that if some one other than a council member served in this capacity for a de fendant it would be necessary to have someone outside the court as a prosecuting attorney," the com mittee found. Other mechanical recommenda tions included the proposal that "before a person goes on trial, we feel that he should not only be informed of all his constitutional rights, but also . given a written copy of all these rights as well as all other information in the Con stitution concerned with the Hon or System. Offenders should un derstand in particular the new grounds for appeal to the Stu dent Council," said the report. REHABILITATION The committee reported that the current plan of rehabilitation "is now being handled in an ef fective manner." Rehabilitation Se uraJ lam cre'i Committee 1 Bob Young, Vic Sydnor and Miss Anne Wrenn have been chosen as president, vice-president and sec retary respectively of the 1955-56 Graham Memorial Activities Board. Young is a rising junior from Asheville. Sydnor, a rising junior, is from Durham. Miss Wrenn, a rising senior, is from Greensboro. "We of the new Activities Board for 1955-56 feel 7 that we have both an obliga- i tion and an op. ! portunity dur ing the coming yea r," said Young yester- day. The new I GMAB presi- dent said the board members BOB HICKS feel their obligation to themselves is "to continue and expand the growing work of the Activities Board." He added that they feel they have an "opportunity to give our services to the entire student body." Young said that GMAB work will be extended to any "part of the campus where we feel that we are needed and can be oC ser vice. . t, . "Our philosophy for the coming year will be" 'little things done, are better than big thmgs planned,' and our program will be for all students," said Young. "We have the passion for sacrifice. With these three P's we feel oui pro gram will not fail," he concluded. The new officers have recently completed interviews for new committee chairmen. They have submitted the names of their choi ces to the Board of Directors for approval . The new committee chairmen are Miss Bobbie Zwahlen, fresh man from Chapel Hill, and Bob Hicks, freshman from New Lon don. Conn., Dance Committee; John Ludwig, freshman from New Orleans, La., Music Committee; Miss Pat McBane, junior from Burlington, Film Committee. Miss Laura Ervin, junior from Morganton, Polls Committee; Miss (See GMAB. page 4) the committee said, now requires that "when a person comes back after being suspended from school, he is put on probation for a period of at least one semester, during which time he may not represent the University in any way. ""During this period," the re port said, "no one council mem ber necessarily visits this student who is trying to clear his record again. We feel that this is good, because otherwise a student would feel that the council was spying on him." The committee suggest ed that a council member "should serve, as requested by the student, as his connecting link with the council and he prepared to an swer questions and help him readjust in every way possible." "Intermediate penalties" were discussed by the group, "but it was generally felt that the five penalties in use now are satisfac tory for most cases." The com mittee listed current penalties as unofficial reprimand, official re primand, probation, suspension and suspension with recommen dation that the convicted student "never be allowed to re-enter the University."
