Student Council Rules
Fines Constitutional
By NEIL BASS
t
The Student Council ruled at a Monday night meeting that fines
levied by the Interdormitory -Council Court were constitutionally
sound.
The Council incorporated a provision in its court by-laws last spring
which allows it to fine offenders up to $10 concurrent with other
penalties inflicted.
A trial case recently in which
an offender of IDC regulations was
fined monetarily by the IDC Court
resulted in the affirmative deci
sion by the Student Council.
The offender appealed his case
to the appellate Student Council
and Monday night s council action j
ruled that the IDC was acting j
within bound of the student Con-!
stitution. I

ACKLAND MUSEUM:
here Is '
By JIM PURKS
Dr. John V. Allcott, chairman of
the UNC Art Department, af
firmed yesterday that the art de
partment did have some definite
cjbjections to the architecture
adopted for the new Ackland art
building now under construction.
Allcott emphatically pointed out,
however, that there is "high op
timism" in the department despite
these objections.
"It's not the building that could
be of most service to us,'' Allcott
pointed out.
Allcott said the art depart
ment feels the colonial style
which has been adopted restricts
the planning of interior corri
dors and walls, and gives a par
ticular lighting which may be
bad for work inside.
Allcott said one of the chief ob
jections to the building is the fact :
that small windows will be cm-'
ployed.
"The school unit has a library
and painting studios along an al
ley. We had hoped that these i
rocms could have large windows to j
admit good north light." j
COLONIAL STYLE . j
"We felt that the colonial style, 1
in calling up historical thoughts,
would not seek to inspire o-ludents
through expression of a' spirit of j
our times," Allcott said. J
"The University has adopted the i
colonial style for recent buildings
in the belief that adherence to j
this style -.secures harmony. We j
see in architectural history that
beauty is not so tyrannical," he:
.-aid. !
"In spite of such feelings as I j
have noted, I want to state our;
optimism about the building. We J
intend to make the building ;
work.' f !
'lt brings us together under j
one roof after years of opera
tion in widely scattered build
ings at present we are in five
buildings," Allcott said.
"The building literally opens up
a new day for art on our cam
pus," Allcott added.
Dr. Allcott made these state
ments yesterday when' asked to

Horn Says
Lopsided'
Gov. Hodges' "Research Tri

far as libraries are concerned,
the University of North Carolina's
retiring head librarian saicf yes
terday. "Libraries do not remain great
unless they are nourished." wrote
Andrew H. Horn, who will finish
his job here in June; He recently
resigned for "personal reasons,"
including reasons of health.
Horn attacked the state's Ad

week for cutting UNC requests

warned the state is not putting
enough money into the library
here. He referred to the "Reserch
Triangle" plan pushed by Gov.
Hodges for coordinating research
on the campuses of the University,
Duke University and N. C. State
College in Raleigh.
He said:
"Many of us have read with

Allcott did not totally disagree
with Cain's criticism, but said the
arrangement was favorable from
the public point of view.
"The public won't have to look
for the museum. It's in a good
place as far as the public ij? con
cerned," Allcott said.
Allcott also pointed out that
Cain made these statements short
ly after he had a short talk with
Cain. ,
"Cain said that the art work
here was better than he had
seen so far on his tour," Allcott
said. Allcott explained that evi
dently Cain got the impression a
great injustice , was being done
to the UNC Art Department
over the new art building and
was distressed that's its good
work would be wasted.

had special satisfaction in noting
that the combined research libra

of the major assets of the Re

"Libraries do not remain great

contribute much toward support
ing the governor's progressive
program.
"The Duke library, fortunately,
has steadily increased its book
budget and thus helped offset the
irregular and reluctant support
given by the state to its Universi
ty Library.
"The events of last week re
minded us a little of those last
summer when the governor spoke
of encouraging industry in North
Carolina while the Division of
purchase and .Contract awarded
the library binding contract to a
firm in Indiana rather than to the
one in Greensboro which had the
contract the year before."

a couple of weeks that mixture of j
tension and relief was missing m
. the--Carolina locker room follow
ing a ball same; for the Tar Heels
had finally found that 'knock cm
down and hold em down" formula

l V -
sion suddenly gripped the club.
Coach Frank McGuire's methodi
cal basketball machine had jift
rolled to an 86-57 -win over the
; State Wolfpack. It was win nuiii
i ber 21 for the nation's number one
' basketball team and coach Mc-
looking and obviously feeling
much better than he has' for some
time.
Despite his complacent appear
ance, McGuire admitted that the
tension waj still there. "I've never
been hunting before in my life,"
he smiled, "but I think I'll grab
; a gun and go bear hunting to get
away from it all."
Although the Wolfpack went
down to a humiliating defeat at
'the hani of the powerful Tar
' Heels, McGuire was not boastful
oyer the victory.' 'State is coming
i along," he observed, "I'll bet
' they'll beat two teams in the ACC
I Tourney."
j McGuire was asked if he thought
the loss of John Maglio and Cliff
j Hafer had hurt the 'Pack. The an
j swer was pretty obvious. "Cer
j tainly that hurt them tremendous
i ly. They're both veterans and fine
! ball players." j
Over in the State dreeing room
! things were pretty quiet. About !
i all that Evcrette Case had to say I
j
was, "how can you win w hen !
they're hitting like that?" The 1
question is, was it speaking of his j
