By FRED POWLEDGE
Special To The Daily Tar Heel
RALEIGH The Visiting
Committee of the Consolidated
University's Board of Trustees
appears to be taking a stronger
view and stand on married stu
dents' housing.
In the Visiting Committee's
report, released Monday at a.
meeting of the full Board of
Trustees, the group recom
mended "that the administra
tion push forward immediately
for legislation providing for
IhorsTiiiig
self-liquidating units for mar
ried students."
Many influential members of
the State's General Assembly
have for a long time maintained
that married students' housing ,
at Chapel Hill and State Col
lege should be treated as a sec
ondary consideration. The Vis
iting Committee's report ac
knowledges: "Argument has
been advanced that all single
students should be housed be
fore married students are, ac
comodated." I
However, states the report,
"This argument today is not
sound in our. opinion, and we
must furnish sufficient housing
for this group, which has been
greatly neglected and discrimi
nated against."
The Visiting Committee rec
ognized the theory that "family
units for married students can
be financed by self -liquidating
bonds without jeopardizing the
rent scale in the dormitories
for single students."
There appears to be opposi
tion, however, on the horizon
for this last statement The
State Board of Higher Educa
tion, in its Biennial Report re
leased recently, states: -
"The board believes that the
present methods of financing
self-liquidating loans through
agencies of the federal govern
ment or through private finan
cial institutions impose limita
tions on the ability of the insti
tutions to finance such projects
without charging their students

EMPHASIZES HIGH ADMISSION STANDARDS

RALEIGH Consolidated University President William Friday
outlined his recommendations for future University athletic policy
in a statement delivered to the meeting of the Board of Trustees in
Raleigh. The report, emphasized the high admissions standards
of the University, the position of the Athletic Council, and the .Uni
versity's policy of compliance with the regulations of the ACC
and the NCAA.
"Much has been written and said during recent months about
the intercollegiate athletic program of State College and the
' University in Chapel Hill.
"Since this is my first opportunity to do so I feel that there
should be a restatement and clarification of the policy and pro
cedures of the University concerning intercollegiate Athletics.
"The executive committee by a motion passed at its meeting
on January 25th 1954 placed the responsibility for the adminis-
tration of intercollegiate athletics in the hands of the chancellor
at each of our institutions. .Respecting this- procedure and seeking
as much conformity as possible I conferred with Chancellors Hous-e
and Bostian and they, along with all members of the consolidated
office and staff and I, submit to you the following statements with
our recommendation that it be approved by you, that it replace
prior board action which may conflict and that it become operative
on your approval: .
"1) The admissions standards of State College and the University
in Chapel Hill, as in the pai, will be set by the respective facul
ties. "2) The academic standards of State College and the University
in Chapel Hill, as in the past, will be set by the respective fac
ulties (I should like to say parenthetically that the present aca
demic standards of our institutions are higher than those of the
Atlantic Coast Conference and they are being enforced.)
"3) The Director of Athletics shall be responsible, unto the
Chancellor, for the administration of the intercollegiate athletic
program at each of our institutions and he shall work with and
through the duly established Faculty Committee on Athletics.
"4) The Executive Committee of this Board of Trustees on
January 25, 1954 stated that the Athletic Council at each insti
tution shall be advisory to the Chancellor and shall not have
administrative or operating authority or responsibilities, except
aj may be specifically prescribed by the Chancellor and approved
by the President.
"5) The Scholarship Committee and each institution is the
agency that awards athletic grants in aid and it is the agency
that revokes grants in aid.
"6) State College and the University in Chapel Hill are mem
bers of the Atlantic Coast Conference and the National Collegiate
Athletic Association and we will abide by both the letter and
spirit of the regulations established by these organizations.
"7) Periodic reports on all phases of the intercollegiate ath
letic program will be made to the faculties of our institutions
and to the Board of Trustees by the Chancciors or their desig
nated representatives.
"We believe that compliance with the standards and regula
tions will safeguard the moral and academic integrity of the Con
solidated University of North Carolina.
To make our position clear, the members of the Consolidated
Staff and I will not tolerate any infraction of these standards ur
regulations."
