He said the program is aimed at" the students and he hopes they will participate. 1 A program such as the symposi um is only "held once in every col lege generation," he said. Muntzing gave praise to the dif .ferent campus organizations for their interest and response in con tributing to the symposium.

The stipulation was contained in the revised General Election Law which the legislators approved. This means that only one ballot box will be located in each dormi tory legislative district instead, of in every dormitory? It also means that town district voters will vote only at Gerrard Hall, the Scuttle butt, South Building or Victory Village. There will be, however, ballot boxes-in Whitehead Dormi tory and nurses dormitory. SELECTIONS BOARD ' . A surprise bill, introduced and passed at the session, gives the campus political parties full right fo name "candidates" for the edi torship of The Daily Tar Heel, in the words of Student Party floor leader John Curtis. ., The Legislature passed, during the 19th assembly, a bill" putting the selection of editorship candi dates in the hands of a bi-partisan board. Now, 'according to Curtis, the political parties have been giv en back the power of selection "which they should have." Action taken on the Election Law provision which centralizes ballot boxes on campus went, with one ex ception, straight 'down party lines. The SP opposed the provision and the University Party sponsored it Thus it passed the Legislature ma chinery through the UP majority. Other measures upon which the lawmakers took action were: 1 (1) "A resolution to provide a reading day before examinations," which passed under UP sponsor ship. (2) A bill setting up a commit tee to "investigate the possibility of placing benehes in front of each dormitory, which was passed under SP sponsorship. (3) A bill calling for vote tabula tion according to individual ballot boxes, which was SP-sponsored, and reverted back to committee.

It Wasn't For those of you who refer to issues of The Daily Tar Heel by the dateline on the front page, here's a clarification: Yesterday's paper was incor rectly called the Wednesday, Feb. 29, issue. It wasn't. It was the Thursday, March 1, issue. Night Editor Mike Vester, who keeps a keen eye out for such errors, can't be blamed. He chop ped the end of his thumb off Wednesday night at the printing plant, and had to leave the pa per in the hands of someone with a less keen eye. Vester reported back to work yesterday with sore, but not se riously hurt, thumb. : antino; Physical Arrangements, Jim lems discussed he said txum; Classrooms ana uepanraen tal Seminars, Graham Rights; Spe cial Seminars, Miss Jane Cocke, and Social Hospitality, Luther Hodges Jr. There is also an office staff, com posed "of Miss Lynne Zimmerman, Mrs. Arthur Fink, Miss Donna Ash craft, Miss Ida Robinson, Miss Gin ger Floyd, Miss Sandra Clark, Miss Mary Ruth Mitchell and Miss Shan non Green. Over 75 persons are currently involved in the work of the sym posium. Chairman Muntzing. said the idea of having the symposium was bri7 ginated by Graham Rights, YMCA president; Bob Young, GMAB pres ident; Claude Shotts, YMCA secre tary, and Jimmy Wallace, Graham Memorial director. A program of this sort was last held here in 1941 under the name of "The Institute of Human Rela tions." Muntzing said the symposi um was concentrating on reaching more people spread over smaller groups than did the 1941 program. According to Muntzing, the Pro gram Committee has been working for some time acquiring speakers. The committee met for the 25th time yesterday. . The committee chose speakers it wished to bring here and also chose alternates for each speaker. Let ters were sent to each speaker ana then to alternates if each speaker could not come to speak. The committee also asked per sons who were acquainted with each speaker to write them per sonal letters encouraging them to come and speak. . NON-STUDENT ' The Program Committee is made up of students, faculty members and other University personnel. Muntzing said the non-student members play an important part in the work of the conimittee. lie said some faculty members took part in the active work of the committee, while others S much advice and many creative thoughts concerning the work of the commit- tee. By MARCELLINE KRAFCHICK With the lifting of the lighted baton of Musical Director Gene Strassler and the first notes . of the overture tonight, a month of j rehersals will culminate in the Carolina Playmakers' musical pro duction, "Seventeen." Directed by Thomas Patterson, with song-and- dance numbers -staged by Foster Fitz-Simons, the play will have two more performances, tomorrow and Sunday nights. UNC students have been offered a special date-rate of half-price for tickets, and can get them for $1 each, instead of the regular $2 tickets for musicals, at the Y Court or at 214 Abernethy Hall. These special reduced rate tickets will not be sold at the box office on the evenings of performance. What goes into a large-scale production like "Seventeen"? How can a university community the atre try to put on a show hat ap peared on Broadway, using the same script ' and score for chorus and orchestra? Last year the play was chosen to fit the season's schedule. This fall the scripts and . scores were ordered and received, and the costum materials bought. Months ago the- four settings were designed and blueprinted. A month ago the scenes were "block ed" by the director, tryouts were held and the cast selected. Then rehearsals began.

' By CHARLIE JOHNSON Four UNC Professors led an in formal discussion on "Undergrad uate Education as Preparation for a Business Career" last night in Graham Memorial. . t The program was the second .meting of the school year of the Student-Faculty Forum, which is sponsored by. the Student-Facul ty Forum Committee of, GMAB. The Committee is headed by Juan West and John Raper. Riper in troduced the four speakers. . Arthur M.

Ike DoesriJ: Appeal To Peahead Meredith Trustees To Admit Coed Men RALEIGH, March 1 (Trus tees of Meredith College have ap proved tighter entrance require ments and received a recommenda tion that the girls' school admit male students.

He said Meredith must admit male students or "fall down on its duty and-obligation" to fill ,need left bv th rpmnvnl snnn nf Walcp Forest College to Winston-Salem. I CHARLOTTE, March 1 Uft Reporter Dick Bayer of TS Charlotte News, a newcomer to the South, ventured out among sidewalk throngs yesterday to. get man-in-the-street reaction to Ike's decision to run again. , He happened upon a bulky, florid-faced man named Douglas Clyde (Peahead) Walker, a big j man in Montreal football today. and a former coach at Wake Forest and Elon colleges. But Reporter Bayer knew nothing of Walker's background, and at that moment Walker knew noth ing about Ike's decision. "What do you think of Ike's statement?" Bayer asked. SCHEME Walker, thinking the young man had information about a husky guard, blinked, and tried to place the youngster in his irtemory. He couldn't. But he surmised it must be some scheme of the sports depart ment. -"How much does he weigh?" asked Walker. It was Bayer's turn to blink. "He weighs , about 180," said the reporter. 'But are you glad he can run?" "If he couldn't run," respond- . - x t i ,l ' - - k i '' v t i i ' ?

Anyway, he's got to be plenty fast to even go out." "He's been the people's choice for four years," Bayer observed. "What I want to know," urged Walker, ""is can he take it. I like 'em rough and tough." Replied Bayer: "He's good as new after the heart attack." TOUGH "Heart attack!" exploded Walker. "Boy, you sure this guy is a prospect? I kill 'era off about complaining about a brok en neck. Up in Canada they grow 'em tough." Tke likes Canada," Bayer of fered, "but his chief concern is .the United States." "He'll forget about the States when I show him some of that money we pay up there," said Walker. "What does he make?" "I'd say he makes about $75, 000 per year," replied Bayer, beginning to wonder about this man-in-the-street voter. "Seventy-five a year," snort ed Peahead. "Son, I can get an entire team and three water boys for -that kind of mony. You go tell this Ike to keep his job." "That's ' what I'm trying to find out," pressed Bayer. "Are you glad the president of the United States, Ike Eisenhower, will try for .another term?" AH HAI The cool, jovial Walker, sen sing a rib, seriously submitted a statement: "I think the Presi dent's decisionto run again will be a good thing for the financial stability of the country. I also think his foreign policies should be carried through. This can't be done with a change in ad ministration." "What's your occupation?" asked Bayer. "Construction engineer," re plied the bulky coach. The statement appeared in a final edition. Walker then was convinced he had talked with a stranger. "I want to apologize," said said Peahead today, "for mis representing myself. If I had known the young man really didn't know me, I would have (See IKE. page 4.) A fund has been established for the recognition of eminent UNC teachers. Kenneth Spencer Tanner and his ;fqmilyt. established the fund. Tan ner is an alumnus of UNC. The fund is known as the "Lola Spencer and Simpson Bobo Tanner Memorial Fund." A University committee has been asked to make nominations for the i awards. Nominations will come from members of the faculty, alum ni and a selected group of stu dents, according to Fred Weaver, dean of student affairs, in a let ter to the selected students. TWO NOMINEES The University committee re quested each of the selected group of about 100 students to nominate a maximum of two faculty mem bers for the award. The nomina tions were turned in yesterday. Any teacher who is a full-time employee of UNC and who devotes a portion of his time to classroom teaching of undergraduates is eli gible to receive a.i award. Paragraph four of the fund pro vides the basis which an award is to be made. It reads as follows: "Awards . . . shall be given to a selected member, or members, of the faculty cf the University in recognition of excellence in inspi rational teaching of undergraduate students, preferably with respect to their influence on first and sec ond year students. EXCELLENCE "Sole consideration, in the selec tion of qualified faculty members, is to be given to excellence in per sonal", classroom or lecture room teaching. "The emphasis is to be particu larly upon influence and attain ments of selected faculty members in the field of personal teaching as contrasted to other activities in which faculty members attain emi nence, including research, author ship, compilations, public service, etc. "This is not to stipulate that such other activities shall bar faculty members from awards.
