; By FRED POWLEDGE
Consolidated University President Gordon Gray,
in his report to the trustees and the state this
week, ran the academic gamut.
His report included information about changes
in the past, plans for the future, a" statement
'about himself and his "situation" and summary
of the University's condition as of July i5, 1955,
Here is an analysis of the President's Report:'
"During the pastj five, years," wrote President
Gray, "a number.? of significant changes have
been made in the consolidated office and in
each of the three units for the purpose of
strengthening positions and procedures for the
better discharge of the academic jobs of the
University." v. ,; -
THREE FOLD 'f
Those changes, he said, include the creation
of new jobs 'and procedures. The reason was
"three-fold: to confirm control of academic af
fairs in the hands of academic people; to insure
that administrative facilities exist for the success
ful exercise of this, control; and, as the ultimate
object, to develop renewed and increased morale
and excellence in instruction, research and in at
tention to students."
Gray said "conscious attempts have been made
to strengthen the. position of the chancellors.
Policy, he said, "has been to provide the chan
cellors with maximum freedom in administering
the affairs of their respective institutions, con
sistent with the stated responsibilities 'of the
president."
Two concrete powers the separate universities
have, he said, are: 'The business managers have
been made responsible directly to the chancellors;

in an abbreviated session last night

,At the University here, he said, the dean of
the College of Arts and Sciences has been given
"drastically- increased" authority" and "responsi
bility for a more successful and dynamic under
graduate instructional program in liberal arts."
LONG RANGE
The next step in the University's development,
said President Gray, is a "long range program of
personnel encouragement, promotion and recruit
ment. "The University is faced with a period of faculty
expansion to meet enrollments,
and, unevenly, of replacing a
relatively large number of facul
ty people approaching retire
ment. It is absolutely essential
that imagination, hard work and
planning be brought to bear im
mediately on the discovery and
recruitment of younger men and
women," 'he wrote.

he said.
Dean Hobbs also spoke of the
problem of parking, telling the
business fraternity the University
could not solve the problem 'by
putting small parking lots all over
the campus. The development of
large areas for parking would help
remedy the situation, he said. ,
In the future the grounds com

There are plans for new dorms,

Ex-Student
Turns Up;
Not Dead
Special To The Daily Tar Heel
BATON ROUGE, La., Oct. 27
Robert Madden, a UNC student
from 1949-51, " presumed dead
since June 12, walked into a Baton
Rouge police station Wednesday
night and said he had been an
"amnesia" victim.
f
Madden's father left Chapel Hill
yesterday to go to Baton Rouge
and get his son.
Madden was presumed to have
drowned , after falling . from his
boat in the Mississippi River near
Baton Rouge last June. His fa
ther, however, "never gave up
1 hope" thai, his son was alive.
President Gray termed the
need for "new machine methods"
of accounting procedures as
"perhaps the most important
current need in our administra
tive arrangements."
Such machines, he said, would
provide income and expenses
data and "a closer scrutiny of
each dollar spent and more ef
fective evaluation of the total
cost of each unit of activity."
The machines, though they
would cost Ysome money initial
ly," would save money in the
long run, he said.
FISCAL CONTROL
President Gray referred to the
fiscal control of the University
by the Bureau of the Budget,
writing: '
"... all of us in the Uni
versity jnust understand that if
we are to have more flexibility
in the use of fiinds, it is proper
ly incumbent upon us to demon
strate that we can handle these
funds wisely and well, and eco
nomically." Gray cited construction now
underway at the campuses of the
three Universities, pointing out
that "with a few exceptions, the
post-war building programs at
each of the three institutions
have been completed."
As for the relation of climbing
enrollment with physical plant,
Gray said:
"We are confronted with the
prospect of greatly increased
enrollments. We must move,
therefore, to a maximum effec
tiveness in the use of our
present plant.
"Among other measures, we
will have to consider seriously
two departures from present
practice.
"One is the question of sche
duling more classes in the after
noon, so as to use classroom
space to better advantage; the
other is the question of giving
regular instruction on a 12
month basis."
'PRESSING'
Among "some of our needs"
that are "quite pressing," Gray
mentioned a new building for the
School of Pharmacy and im
proved quarters for the School
of Journalism.
Also, he said, "there is the
problem of dormitory facilities,
for both unmarried and married
students. At present, despite the
construction of new dormitories
in recent years, we are over
crowded, with three students in
many rooms designed for two
at State College and Chapel Hill,
and there are long waiting
lists." '
He pointed out "one remedy"
for the crowded housing situa
tion is the building of dormi
tories at Chapel Hill and Grcens
iboro with government loans, to
be paid by the students in in
creased dormitory rents.
The second installment of the
analysis of President Cray's re
port to the trustees will follow
in tomorrow's Daily Tar Heel.
