Young Plans Pmse "I the Fullest euimn xfenf 'Major Barbara' Tonight's Free Movie In Xarrcll Hdl "Major Barbara" will be" to night's GMAB Spring Film Series presentation in Carroll Hall af 8 p. m. , The movie is George Bernard Shaw's comedy-satire about a Sal vation Army girl who is ready to make any sacrifice for the rftan of her choice. Starring in the film is the Bri tish actor, Rex Harrison, presently featured in the Broadway produc tion of "My Fair Lady," which is j based on "Pygmalion,' another Shaw work.. Also featured In tonight's film are Wendy Hiller and Rpbert Mor ley. Morley has been noted for his performance in the American film, "Beau Brummel." Di Senate' bids Meeting Orientation Counselors Interviewed Approximately 210 prospective Orientation counselors are being interviewed this week, according to Bill McLean, Orientation chair man.! Interviewing of applicants is scheduled to end officially on Sat urday of this week, but one ses sion may have to be scheduled on Sunday, said McLean. r Applicants who are unable to be present , for the interviews should contact Mebane Pritchett, chairman of the selection commit tee, at the Phi Delta Theta House for a new interview time. Oiintation counselors are chos en by a selection committee made up of members of the Orientation Committee. The nams of the mem bers of the Selection, Committee, other than that of Chairman Prit chett, are not revealed since "they might be contacted by applicants," said McLean. The number of orien tation counselors; needed each year is based on the number of incom ing freshmen. Last year around 110 i counselors were used in the orientation program, but no defi nite; number ' has been decided upon for this year as yet, accord ing fto McLean. Applicants for the counselor jobs, said McLean, are expected to have a thorough knowledge of the Honor Code, campus life and governmental systems. Erroll G At AA airier emona 1 o Be 1 Hall Erroll Garner and his modern trio will give lovers of modern music a cool earful during his concert at 8 o'clock tonight in Memorial Hall. The jazz treat costs $1 pet person. Tickets are now on sale in Y, Court, at the GM informa tion office, Kemp's Town and Campus, Carolina, Carolina Sport Shop and the Chapel Hill Recrea tion Center. Members of the Stray Greeks and the Interfraternity Council will sell tickets in the dormitories. The IFC and Panhellenie Coun cil are sponsor's of Garner's ap pearance. Proceeds will go to the Chapel Hill Recreation Center. Garner plays entirely without : the use of printed music. This gives him a style that is fresh but accomplished. I - j He displayed his talent for in- j formal musical rendition at an! early age. When only three years old,he played on the piano a se lection he had learned from list ening to music from an old-fashioned player piano. At the age of seven Garner made his professional debut playing with a group called the "Candy Kids" at a radio station in Pitts burgh, Pa., his home town. Since then he has grown in abil ity and increased his following. He has recorded on more than 35 different labels. Not content with simply record ing and playing, Garner has attain ed prominence as a composer. His best-known work, "Play Piano, Play," has been acclaimed by many. His new mambo composi tions are considered among . the greatest contributions to contem porary jazz art forms. Garner's piano stylings are much imitated but never duplica ted. The slightly retarded beat of his bass chords balances off the unique sound created by the ram bling right hand. ' His first major concert was held in 1050 in Town Hall, New York. That marked the end of Earner as just a sound onwax and the be ginning of Garner as a live sound. Since the Town Hall debut he has played to audiences in major con cert halLs throughout the United States and Canada. His schedule now indicates that the - "Garner sound'.' will soon be heard in South America, Europe, Australia and Japan. One of the striking facts in the Garner story is his comparative youth. At the relatively early age of 33 he is known as "Mr. Piano" and as one of the top men in the jazz field. Observers predict his rise will continue.

In its last regular debate of the spring semester, the Dialectic Se-J nate defeated a bill which stated in part that there is a natural aris-J tocracy of intellect which, if civi lization is to survive, must be al-1 lowed to exercise leadership -and control over the masses. The bill was introduced by Sen. Stan Shaw, who cited the cultures of ancient Egypt, Babylonia and Greece in an attempt to show that civilization flourished in these countries until the ruling aristoc racy was overthrown by the bar baric masses. Sen. Shaw said that this "mobocracy"" is still with us in the form of socialist and com munist movements which aim .to destroy everything of beauty and value in the world. Sen. Larry McElroy rose to op pose the bill, saying that America has protfuced no real aristocracy. Many of our successful leaders, he said, have no great intellectual nowers. Sen. McElroy was followed by Senators Steve Moss, and Pat Adams. Moss stressed the great importance of intellect in morali ty. No man is moral, he said, un less he has sufficient intellect to understand moral principles. Sen. Adams said that in his opinion, me bill harked back to old Slavery Days, and was completely out of line with traditional , American principles. Sen. Jim Holmes, speaking neg atively, objected to tne siaiemtrm. of a previous speaker that the masses have hindered progress. Instead, he saw the masses as ex erting a dynamic and progressive influence upon civilization. Pres. David Rcid assumed the rostrum, to speak against the bill. He saw in the bill a similarity to the policies adopted by Russia. He said that under the provisions of the hill, those who would in Amer ica emerge triumphant, would notj nAor;i. hp Vpst 'Qualified to. lead. - . Sen. Nancy Rothschild and Sen. Scotty Hester wound up the de bate. Sen. Rothschild pointed out the importance of education in de vploninff native intellect, and Sen. Hester emphasize the privilege of j the majority to make tneir own decisions and govern themselves as they see fit. . Phi Endorses Govt. Report A resolution calling for the Phi lanthropic Assembly to go on rec ord as endorsing the proposals and conclusions contained in the Gov ernor's Advisory Committee on Education was defeated ' in the group's meeting Tuesday night. The Assembly also heard a re port by Dick Iobst, Phi alumnus and law student here, on the at tack on Fort Fisher during the last days of the Civil War. He said that the fort underwent one of the most extensive bombardments in the history of warfare up to that time. ( . Following the historian's report, several reports of the Committee of the Whole were approved by , the group. One of these was a pro-; posal that the title of Speaker be changed to that of Prolocitor. j Speaker John Curtis announced that a special election will be held at the next meeting to fill the va cated post of sergeant-at-arms. Several members of the Dialec tic Senate attended the meeting and discussed plans for a Phi-Di debate. It ,was decided that the joint event will be held in Phi Hall on May 1. Legislature Begins 2lst Session Tonight By NEIL BASS The. student Legislature's 21st assembly swings into 1 action to night. Lawmakers will convene at eight o'clock to run through a busy session. On ap are such matters as in auguration and installation of new ly elected representatives, installa tion of the nr.w Legislature speak er, and election of standing com mittee chairmen. j Latest . reports have it that the University Party might have pre served its majority after all. Although these figures aren't official, it's fairly certain that the UP will have 25 on its roll, while the Student Party will have only 24 representatives to push through its policy. . One representative from Town Men's IV professes to be an inde pendent. , 5 UP MAY RETAIN Thus the UP might retain chair manships of all three standing committees, and may nab the speaker pro tempore's post again also. 1713 Involved Bob Young, president-elect of the student body, yesterday an nounced he would "prosecute . . . to the fullest extent" all those connected with the Monday night police station incident. He said, "I certainly express my deepest regret about the incident. As incoming spokesman for the student body, I would like to make it clear what my intentions are concerning this matter. "Because of the widespread ad verse publicity and repercussions which inevitably will develop from this," he said, "I will prosecute as soon as-possible all those who are responsible to the fullest extent. "I wish that we could make.it very clear that this is an incident caused by a very small group cf people. However, as we all knew, it will bring disgrace to everyone connected with the University," Young said. "Having talked with members of the administration, with mem bers of the police staff and with persons involved in the episode," he said, "I feel that everyone re alizes the damage that this has done. I hope that all sound-thinking student will join' with me in (Continued on page 4) . v X m-mM Jhk'.iiiiwP (Si The three standing committees are Finance, Ways and Means and Rules. Outgoing ' Legislature Speaker Jack Stevens will administer oath to recently elected Sonny Evans. With Evans in the SP fold, it's a lairly safe bet that chairmen of the special committees which pop up so often will come from among representatives on the right side of the room. Traditionally, the SP roosts to 1 tha speaker's right, and the UV seats its members to the speaker's left. , WEINMAN OUT Although the UP majority ap parently has weathered the elec tion storm, that group will be with out the services of its last assem bly floorleader Mike Weinman. Weinman's seat, was one of those nabbed by the SP during the . process of spring elections. Just whom the grocp will select i to supplant Weinman is a good question. It has no legislator with more than two assemblies experience. f V v -X r T--viiii $ ftrwmw ::'-' - . - u - ' , ,1i J i s i i ' , Getting Ready For Senior Week Festivities Four Carolina seniors are shown above anticipating Barefoot Day, one of the events to be held dur ing' Senior Week, which begins Monday. 4-eft to right, the seniors are Ken Anderson, Kinston; Jay Zimmefmani New Palti, N.
