The Iiiterdormitory Council has" ovenvhelminsly defeat
ed a resolution -calling for the prohibition of freshmen and
sophomore cars on campus.
The resolution, proposed by Connor, graduate student
dormitory, was even denied a sec-
ond until one representative said
he'd second it just so the council
could "vote it down." Jake Gates,
representative who introduced the
proposal, said Connor residents
didn't feel ample measures were
being taken to correct the "over
population" problem of student
cars on campus. "This method," he
said, "would be highly efficient."
The council didn't, however,
agree with Gates and when voting
time came, the Connor representa
tive was the only council member
who raised in "aye" of approval.
Tnc problem of increasing short
ages in the collections from dorm
itory telephones was brought to
th Tniinril's nttpntion npxt The i
University, according to President j the IDC had no official power to
Lewis Brumfield, has threatened j abrogate student government con
to take pay telephones off all j tracts. Faw didn't give a definite

if the collection shortages are not ! the council men's dormitories
stopped. j would 'continue" to get door to
Shortages ranged from 70 per-' door delivery, but that he hoped

Policy With Latin America
Needs Mending, Says Gil
"U.S. foreign policy toward Lat
in America needs mending' Dr.
Federico G. Gil of the Political

of the International Relations
Council and Cosmopolifan Club
Thursday night in Bingham Hall.
"The U. S. has had a tendency
to overlook its strong economic

America," Dr. Gil said. "We show
great concern over global securi

shortages, and then the University
will take action, according to Brum
field. The final item on the council's
agenda concerned The Daily Tar

Rick Fa w, the paper's circula
tion manager, appeared before, the
body and asked that dormitories
let his department "off the hook."
Faw was referring to the contract

paper to deliver door to door in
men's dormitories.
The council took no definite ac

rprsrpspntative reminded him that

slightly more ajar. But all agree
that things are pas boc'not good.'
"And who is the culprit who

"This situation has caused some
resentment among the Latin Amer

Dr. Gil proposed a Latin Amer

GRADUAL DE-SEGREGATION:
SSL Asks Compliance
With Supreme Court
By ETHAN TOLMAN
' Daily Tar Heel Staff Writer
RALEIGH, Nov. 1& The State
Student Legislature today passed
a bill calling for SSL to go on
record as favoring compliance with
the Supreme Court's rulings con
cerning segregation.
.The, bill also expressed the be
lief that people of North Carolina
will follow the law and suggested
a moderate plan of gradual deseg
regation be put into effect.
Originally calling for immediate
and absolute removal of segrega
tion in all aspects of life in North
Carolina, the bill was introduced
by Johnson C. Smith University.
The amendment which changed the
bill to the form in which it was
passed was introduced by Norwood
IN THE INFIRMARY
Students in the UNC Infirmary
yesterday included:
Miss Doris E. McDowell, Miss
Nan W. Brown, Roland W. Bat

. "Then it came up the side to the
kitchen," she. said. "And it caused :
the coffee urn in the old butler's
pantry to explode."
Raj' Warren, University's elec
trical trouble-shooter, said last
f night the fire was probably caused
by faulty wiring.
As proof, Warren exhibited a
charred electrical outlet from the
butler's cabinet. The fire, he said,
evidently started from a wire from
the coffee urn which was plugged
into the outlet.
Firemen had to hack away part j
of the walls to get to the fire. Miss
Fleshman said it took firemen
from 10 to 15 minutes to control
Ihe blaze.
Several of the coeds filed out of
the house still in their pajamas.
Another Pi Phi, Miss Jane Ed
wards, reported the girls "paraded
out nicely, and most of them re
membered to put a wet towel over
their heads."
The entire Chapel Hill Fire De
partment, along with , police patrol
cars, arrived at the blaze.
The Fire Dept. said it received
the alarm at 9:22 p.m. j
The fire did not endanger the
sorority's new annex, now under ,
Bryan, UNC delegate.
During the House session last
night, Charles Dean, head of the
UNC delegation, moved a special
order of business to take up the
de-segregation bill in place of the
UNC bill, which was scheduled for
consideration. This move was de
feated, however, and the bill re-mained-on
todays agertdar-
Miss Susan Fink, UNC delegate,
last night introduced a bill in the
House which called for, the expan
sion of city colleges, unification
of specialized education and an
equal transfer of credits in trans
ferring from one state-supported
institution to another. Among the
Carolina delegates who spoke , in
favor of the bill were Stanly Shaw,
i Bev Webb, John Curtis and Jim
Holmes. The bill was overwhelm
ingly defeated after much debate
among the respresentatives.
Both houses passed bills calling
for the placing of all state-supported
colleges, except the Universi
ty, under the control of the state
Board of Higher Education. A
measure calling for the separation
of the three units of the Greater
University and the placing of them
under the Board of Higher Edu
cation was due for later discuss
ion. A bill calling for veto power to
be given the Governor was also
passed by the student legislators.

construction on the west end of
the building.
Investigation showed the fire
caused soft drink bottles to ex
plode, which in turn caused the
coffee urn to blow up. It was the !
bottle explosion, said firemen, that
aroused sorority sisters.
One coed, asked what she grab
bed for when she first knew the
house was afire, said, "I grabbed
for my coat I didn't have any
thing on." .
Faculty Resolution
The Faculty Council of the Uni
versity late yesterday called on
North Carolinians "to set their
faces firmly and finally against
every proposal to abolish, aban
don or weaken our public schools."
The council, composed sf 70
faculty members elected by the
whole faculty, said it spoke "to
the extent we are accountable for
the traditions and standards of
this University" and "as citizens
with a wider concern."
The Council said the resolution
was voted, for overwhelmingly and
that Chancellor Robert House gave
the resolution his "full approval."
Legislators
Engage In
Bit Of Fun
: RALEIGH, Nov. 18 State Stu
dent Legislature delegates en
gaged in some strange political
maneuvers here today.
The senate in an early session
passed unanimously a bill call
ing for the House of Representa
tives to be dissolved. When the
House was notified of this mo
tion, Speaker Jim Turner of the
House appointed Lewis Brum
. field, UNC, chairman of 9 com
mittee which would ascertain
what the House shoud do con
cerning the matter.
Brumfield went to the Senate
chamber to try and find out why
the bill was passed. However,
he no sooner got there than he
was removed bodily from the
Senate and was carried back to
the floor of the House. The
House immediately began to
consider means of retaliation.
Meanwhile, the Senate, after
Brumfield's removal, adjourned
and its members entered the
House chamber to sit in on its
session. They were ordered re
moved, and this was done. David
Reed, UNC, today's president of
the Senate, was picked up by j
House members and carried out.
The House following this im
mediately passed b3r acclamation
a bill which forbade the word
"Senate" to be used at any time
during its sessions.
Following these actions both
houses returned to the scheduled
order of business.

"Those who believe in the pres
ervation of free enterprise will
find sound, conservative economic
thinking in the Republican Party,"
said John A Wilkinson, former He
publican candidate for the United
States Senate, to the Young Re
publican's Club Thursday night.
"Because the Democratic Party
has been captured by the social
ists," said Wilkinson, a Washing
ton, N. C lawyer, "the traditional
Southern Democrat has no place
to turn but the Republican Party,
which encompasses the time-honored
Southern view, . to wit, a mini
mum of federal interference in
favor of state and local control.
The Republican opportunity," he
said, "is to win the support of
the conservatives."
Wilkinson said "The Democratic
Party as epitomized by the north
ern segment would be better tag
ged t'.ie American Socialist Party.
"The Democratic Party," he said,
"is tco'closely tied to labor unions
to be an autonomous organization.
If the Republicans are so much in
favor of big business, why was the
Sherman Anti-Trust Act introduced
by the Republicans, passed by the
Republicans and in succeeding
years strengthened by Republicans?
