Copies of the Memorandum of Regulations a n c(, application blanks-may be obtained from Dean Spruill, ; RALEIGH, May 18 The House of Representatives today passed auid sent to the Senate a bill allowing six state-supported colleges to finance construction of new dormitories through revenue bonds. The bonds would be paid off through increases in dormi tory rentals. Schools which would be allow ed to float bond issues include the three branches of the Consoli dated University, East Carolina College, West Carolina College and Appalachian State Teachers College. ; - The revenue bill would allow University trustees : "at one time or from time - to time" to issue "revenue bonds of the board for the purpose of acquiring or con structing any project or projects." "Projects" refers to one or more dormitories, with or without dining facilities, and "enlarge ments or improvements thereof or additions thereto. . . . together with the necessary land and equipment." Bonds for the ' University at Chapel Hill, according to the bill, may not exceed two million dol lars. If the bill is passed, it will al low the Board of. Trustees to "increase the -rentals for . the fa cilities furnished by any existing dormitories . : . to provide," to the extent necessary, additional funds to liquidate in full any revenue Legislature May Get Negro Bill Will the student Legislature get a resolution tonight calling for the admittance of Negroes as undergraduates? This is a question for which there was no answer yesterday. : Various rumors have been asso ciated with the resolution, but there have been no concrete de tails given. According to Jim Holmes, Stu dent Party member who was re ported to be the introducer, the measure will "probably" be put on ' the floor. But Holmes would not pinpoint his answer to a yes or ' a no. He did say the resolution had the support of "several people," and that those people were mem bers of the SP. After the hint from Holmes that the proposal would have the backing of most of the SP mem bers, another source high in the party was consulted. This member, who requested that he remain unidentified, but that his statement be attributed to a "highly informed source," said he was completely "opposed" to the measure. "The SP support will not be al together united on this matter," he went on to add in loud tones. Another member, Bob Harring ton, was just as outspoken in his opposition to the proposed intro duction. 3 "I feel this resolution, although lit has great worth, would in the long run prove to be detremental to the best interests of UNC," said Harrington, because it "might Legislature financial matters." According t0 Harrington, he is going to do all in his "power" to keep the resolution from being put up to a vote. If the measure does hit the leg islative agenda, the question of passage will lie in the hands of the University, Party. bonds issued under this act." A University official said yes terday he felt the bill would cause a small raise in dormitory rents. Dorm rent raise recom mended by the Advisory Budget Commission, however would amount to much more than these under the present bill.
