Phi Will Debate On US Forces In Hungary The Philanthropic Literary So- I ciety will debate tonight a bill pro 1 posing the intervention of U. S. troops in Poland and Hungary. The U. S. troops would attempt to destroy the existing governments in those countries. The bill sug gests more aid of a non-military nature for the Hungarian refugees. This drive is a community pro ject with all Chapel Hill' churches participating, along with the In terfranity Council. APO Service fraternity and the Woman's Resi dence Council. The General Secretary of World University Service, Mr. Douglas Aitken, said that "at the present moment it is not possible to send aid to specific groups of students within Hungary, but that assis tance is desperately needed for the students who are among the thou sands of persons who are fleeing to the safety of the Austrian bor der." He ' went on to say that "WUS, faithful to its principle of providing assistance to the Uni versity community on the basis of need without discrimination, would seek every means of assisting the members of the Hungaian 'univer sity community." Mrs. F. D. R. At Dulce DURHAM, m Mrs. Eleanor Ro osevelt charged here yesterday that "Oil interests in the middle East" prevented the U. S. from taking vigorous action when Israeli ships were denied use of the Suez Canal in 1951. In a speech to the Durham Chap ter of the American Assn. for the United Nations, Mrs. Roosevelt said, "there would have been a clear case today in the UN if in 1951 the U. S. had protested then and there that all ships should go through." t "But. " she said, "Oil interests in the Middle East held the U. S. from action against Arab coun tries." In a press conference before the speech, she contended that Israel's invasion of Egypt was " not at all the same" as the North Korean in vasion of South Korea in 1950. "I consider Israel acted with a great deal of justification," she said. However, she added, "I can not say that of Britain and France." Mrs. Roosevelt said, ".Britain and France had. special interests in the situation but they should not have been taken as an excuse for flaunt ing the United Nations." Mrs. Roosevelt said she consider ed the UN stronger today thaa it was before the Middle East crisis and the uprising in Hungary. In her talk to the Inter-racial meeting of the assn. for the UN on the campus of Duke University, she agreed that it was proper for the U. S. to "try its own diploma tic machinery" on world problems. , "But when no solution comes through this machinery." she said,! it would be better to take the case at once to the UN."

His report in full follows. "Action of the Men's Honor Council so far this year has in cluded the following cases: "The defendant was charged with using some gasoline credit cards which he knew to be some one, else's. He used the cards on a trip from Florida to New York in the summer of 1956. "The defendant pled guilty to the charge. He was suspended from school with the recommenda tion that he not be allowed to re turn to the University until the fall semester, 1957. "It was established in this case that the defendant was driving a stolen car, but he testified before the council that 'he was unaware that the car was stolen. The de fendant testified that he had bought the car from a man in Durham and had paid cash at the time of purchase.

Ministers Were Guests On Campus Yesterday All ministers throughout North Carolina .were invited to visit the UNC campus yesterday. j According to Ray Jefferies, asst. to the dean of student affairs, ap-j proximately 250 were present. The Ministers attended a buffet lunch eon at the Morehead Planetarium and also a showing of the Planetar ium show, "Star of Bethlehem." gard to the stolen car. , "The council accepted the de fendant's testimony with regard to the car. He was convicted and suspended on the charge of hav ing used someone else's credit cards. "In another case a student was charged with cheating on a pop quiz. He was informed by his In structor of the suspicions against him; whereupon he reported him self to a member of the council. "He pled guilty of the violation before the council and was sen tenced to indefinite probation, which normally lasts one full semester. "Besides the student's perfect honesty with regard to the viola tion, one other circumstance caus ed the council to render a sen tence of probation rather than suspension, the latter being the normal sentence for cheating. "This was the fact that the stu dent was from a foreign country attending the University on a special visa program carefully supervised by the United States Government. Should this student stop school for any reason he would automatically be deported from this country. "The council felt that in this case suspension would actually amount to a verdict of expulsion, since it would be highly unlikely that the student involved, once deported, could ever return to the University again. His offense together with his cooperative attitude did not warrant expulsion. The council, therefore rendered probation as being the more appropriate sen tence. "Other cases which have oc- curred this fall will be reported j in succeeding articles." 1 Lots Frate Staked rriity University engineers are; in the' process f staking off lots at the locations qi the new social and professional fraternity court projects. ' The "new courts are situated off the Pittshoro Rd. in the wooded area between Victory Village and Chase Ave. The social court will be the larger of the two, consisting of 10 building sites, each being approxi-, five fraternities moving to the new mately one acre in size, while the professional court will encompass six sites of around one acre each. The two locations are separated by a ravine. MEETING A meeting concerning the pro ject, which was held on Oct. 25, was attended by Claude Teague. UNC business manager, Sam Ma gill, director of student activi ties, J. S. Bennett, director of op erations, J. A. Williams, Univer sity attorney and representatives of the various fraternities which have shown interest in moving to the new locations. , According to Teague the meeting- was "engineered by Harold Twisdale" of the Lamba Chi Alpha fraternity which initiated the drive for the court. Teague stated the participants tried to arrive at a method of allocation of jots, length of time the leases j could be held by the fraternities before actual building began and cost of the lots, According to Magill, to whom the various fraternities must apply or a lot at the new Slte- lots wlU be allocated in order of the Jnitia- liVe shown by the fraternities, those . in on the planning from the beginning probably having first choice. Allocation, however, would also be "determined by the size of the house to be built in j relation to the suitability of the i LEASE . Leasee son-thff'coint?

Magill stated the cost of the project would approach $58,000. No definite decision has been made as to a method of raising the money but all fraternities will eventually share the costs of the development. According decided "as to Magill it is un to whether the first Mrs. Roosevelt Been Strengthened Recently By FRED lOWLEDGE Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt said Mon day the United Nations has been "'strengthened a great deal" in the past few weeks.

Snipes, publicity chairman. Anyone who can sing, dance, or play an instrument has been urged 1o sign up with either Dave Davis at the Phi Delt House or Eleanor Rigginsit the YMCA office. Tryouts will be held Wednesday and Thursday nights in Memorial Hall. "The show will be presented Thursday, Dec. 13 at 8 p.m. in Memorial Hall with a cash prize going to the best judged perform er." said Snipes. The talent show will be sponsor- de by Graham Memorial Activities Board and the YV- MCA. u 1 I location will pay the whole cost, then those moving later pay their pro-rated share in reimbursement to the first five or into a main tenance fund." The social fratern ities will supply approximately . three-fourths ofMhe S58.000 total sum, the professional fraternities supplying the remainder. Magill stated that regulations applying to fraternities at their present sites would apply to those moving to the new court. The fraternities may be required to include in their house plans pro vision' for an apartment for a house mother, however, in the event that the University evgt requires all fraternities on cam pus to retain a house mother. Magill said those social fraterni ties expressing a definite desire to move to the new site were the Lamba Chis, SPEs and ZBTs. Se veral pharmaceutical, dental, and business fraternities have shown interest in the professional court development. COLONIAL STYLE . The style of architecture will probably follow traditional colon ial lines, but all house plans are subject to the approval of the Of fice of the University engineer. According ' to Harold Twisdale, Lamba Chi spokesman, the main problem of the fraternities is raising the $58,000 so the Univer- I utilities in the area prior to build- ! in- "e stated We nope to oe oo- j taining leases within the., .next month xit just! as sooit a the'Jots are staked off."

Says UN Has ternoon to members of the 'Chapel Hill and Durham communities in terested in the United Nations. She delivered a public speech last night at Duke University. In her talk here, Mrs. Roosevelt spoke in a panel with Clark M. Eichelbergcr, director of the Am erican Assn. for the United Na tions. Dr. Shepard Jones of the UNC Political Science Dept. mo derated the discussion. Mrs. Roosevelt said she was grateful the United Nations had shown strength in considering two recent crises the invasion of Egypt and the Hungarian revolt and later supression by Russia. Asked later if she were ever pessimistic about the United Na tions, she replied: "Never about the United Nations I get pessi mistic about some individual na tions." For examples of "indivi dual nations" she offered U. S. failure to "take matters to the UN when it should have taken them there" and failure of some other na tions to keep promises they have made to the international agency. "I'm very optimistic about na tions "getting together," Mrs. Ro osevelt said. "Not tomorrow, but eventually, to achieve some sort of permanent peace."' The United Nations has a tre mendous job to do toward this goal, she said, but cannot do it without the help of individuals. "Our in dividual responsibility" to the UN comes in participating in national policy formation, she said. It is national policy that the UN look to for its policies, she explained.
