The Board of Directors was taken on a tour of the building by Wallace this week. Don Fowler, president of the student body, said "I think that Graham Memorial is in the finest shape it has been in several years. There have been a lot of improvements made during the summer? and I hope the students will take advantage of their fine student union and its program. A lot of thinks are owed to Di rector Wallace and his staff for these improvements. Als0 a lot of thanks are owed to J. S. Ben nett, supervisor of operations for the University," he said. "I thought that a lot cf im provements had been made dur ing the summer - and ' that the ' Graham Memorial Director and his staff certainly deserve com mendation for their fine work over the past two years," said Interfraternity Council presi dent Ed Borden after the tour. Bob Young, chairman of GMAB, said. "I've been here two years and as far as I can see the building has improved 100 percent as far as physical facilities are concerned. All fa cilities are new and practically all credit should go to Jimmy Wallace. Now our problem is to get the students to utilize these fine facilities." Wallace began the tour in the barber shop. He said the two barbers now working serve more than 200 customers a week. Due to the increase in business, it is expected that another barber will have to be hired, he added. Wallace pointed out the ceil ings in the entire basement area have been covered with acousti cal tile. The upper wall sections have been painted and the lower areas have been covered with plasiic material. Wallace then . ' showed the board the renovations in the Rendezvous Room. In addition to the acoustical tile and paint work there, the oak panelling has been refinished in a new light tone. The ladies' lounge has also been renovated. The ceiling, -which was formerly 16 feet high, has been moved down. The lounge has new wall paper and a perfume dispenser, which gives a squish of Tabu, My Sin or Chanel No. 5 for a dime. ' The Roland Parker Lounge has been completely equipped with new folding chairs. Accord ing to Wallace, the new chairs possess qualities of style, com fort and economy which were not found in the old chairs.

One of the things Exum, also University Party floorleader, dis likes about the bill is its repre sentation clause. As the bill stands, 13 of the 52 convention delegates will be appointed by student body President Don Fowler. Thus it is very likely that the number of Fowler-appointed rep resentatives will have decreased when the bill gets out of Exum's committee. He has said that there will probably be "several" amend ments tacked on the bill when it gets to the Legislature floor. The committee is composed of four UP members and three from the Stu dent Party. One of the bills introduced at the session Thursday night prom ises to be a controversial one. U was introduced by UP chief Exum and calls for the appropriation of $300 to the University band. A similar bill was -passed under UP sponsorship by the Legislature last year, except that it' asked for approximately $700. It got by the legislative cogs with little diffi culty, but was vetoed by student body president Tom Creasy. Creasy vetoed the appropriation on the advice of the Student Audit Board. According to the board student government's safe operat ing balance should not be below $10,000. At the time the Igisla; ture attempted to give the band $700 the operating balance was There has been a suggestion by Larry McElroy, SP floorleader, that it will offer objection. Objec tion or not, however, the UP plur ality can pass the bill if it wants to.

' Fluoridization Of Water Is , Said Held Up Fluoridization of Chapel Hill's water supply is being held up by former and present members of the Board of Trustees, according to certain University officials who refused to be named. Although the Board of Aldfcrmen in Chapel Hill endorsed the pro posal, it was unable to act since 'ihe town's water- supply is. con-r trolled by the University. The proposal is being opposed on the grounds that it would be "mass medication," that it is too expensive and that it may be pois onous or cause adverse effects. The issue has been endorsed and approved by dental and medical authorities, who say that fluoriza tion is no more harmful than chlorine, which is used to" purify water. - Also, according to Dr. John C. Brauer, dean of the University School of Dentistry, fluoridization would reduce tooth decay of school children by 50 percent. Panty Raid? Late Thursday night, a dis turbance of undetermined origin arose in Lower Quad. It is thought by some that it was the first attempt this sea son to organize a panty raid.

Hedgpeth, chair man of admissions of the uni versity Medical School, told 250 prospective medical and dental students that a thorough ground ing in an . undergraduate school was one of the most important parts of a medical education. Said Dr. Hedgpeth, "The pre medical student should enrich his mind, soul and spirit as much as possible during his un dergraduate years." Dr. Hedgpeth spoke at a meet ing of pre-medical and pre-dent-al students in Venable Hall Thursday night. The meeting was sponsored by the UNC Chapter of Alpha Epsilon Delta, a national honorary society for pre-medical students. Other speakers for the meeting were Dr. C. S. Jones, associate pro fessor of zoology and advisor for the General College, and Dr. R. E. Sturdevant, chairman of admissions of the Dental School. Dr. Hedgpeth said the medical school looks for "men who have had a good undergraduate back ground in the arts as weir as the sciences, wh0 are steadfast in purpose, willing to make sacri fices and above ail," who have a keen sense of social conscious ness." . "Medical education," added Dr. Hedgpeth, "is, like any edu cation, a continuing process. If you g0 into medicine, you will find yourself a medical student for the rest "of your life." Dr. Jones laid five pertinent questions before the students: (1) "Do you really want to study medicine or dentistry?" (2) "Why do you want to study medicine or dentistry?" (3)"What makes you think you ought to study medicine or dentistry?" (4) "What else would you want to do if you didn't study medi cine or dentistry?" (5) "How do you propose to go about study ing for a profession in medicine or dentistry?" Dr. Jones pointed out that since the pre-medical curriculum is so specialized, a student should be sincere in his desire to study medicine before he begins this study. Dr. Sturdevant lauded the UNC Dental School and reported a few statistics from the Dental School's 1955 Report. The sta , tistics showed that more appli cations had been made to the UNC Dental School than to any other Dental School in the coun try. "Dentistry offers many oppor tunities." said Dr. Sturdevant. "In this state there is about one dentist to every 3,500 persons. If you have service written on your heart, the dental field is open and the people are waiting for you." UNC Educational Schc Gets Aid From Kello Chancellor R. B. House has an nounced the W. K. Kellogg Foun dation has awarded $20,000 to the UNC School of Education for use in study and improvement pro grams for the education of school administrators. The project will be centered in the School of Education and will be directed by a committee of Uni versity professors: W: E. Rosen stengel, chairman, Guy B. Phillips, Gordon Ellis,' Donald Tarbet and Wilmer Jenkins. This group will have the overall direction of the project, which will continue for four years. . Two assistants have been em ployed to do field work in the project. They are Cameron West, formerly principal of the Jackson ville High School, and Everett Cameron, formerly instructor at the University of West Virginia. This new project was awarded following an earlier project which defined administrative competen cies needed for success in opera ling public school systems. The eight areas given particular at tention were: (1) Instruction and curriculum development; (2) pupil personnel; (3) Community-school leadership; (4) Staff personnel; (5) School plant; (6) School transportation; -(7) Organization and structure cf the public school system, and (S) School finance and business man agement. In each of these "critical" areas the earlier project identified tha theory and technical skills needed for successful school administra tion. The new program will ex plore ways, of developing com petencies in students. down to $3,000.
