He is due in Washington at 10 a in. today. Venezuela's government sent out troops, tanks and armored cars to Rive Nixon and his wife 1 at a s:ife send-off. A bullet-proof limousine was provided for their trip from the V S. Embassy to Cartas Airport. It was at the airport that anti-, 1' n i t r (1 States demonstrators j launched their spitting and ston-: irv attack when the Nixons ar med Tuesday from Bogota. Co lombia. Clubs, stones ami eggs battered their cars in street rioting. Today police cleared the streets. (What do some UNC history and political science professors think of the Nixon treatment? Of Ike's move? See page 3.) Nixon planned to have dinner in San Juan with Gov. Luis Munoz Marin. Munoz Marin has been hailed by V. S senators as an outstanding spokesman for Iitin America. Th? Vice President's desire to talk with him may relate to recom mendations Nixon is expected to prepare on the basis of his tour. The original schedule called for Feupl Over UNC Control i r " i ; Unresolved An effort to patch up differ ences between the UNC trustees and the State Board of Higher Education has failed at least for the present. , This fact will, be emphasiezd when the trustees report to the board of trustees at a meeting ia Raleigh May 26. The report is expected to reaf firm the trustees' position that the Board of Higher Education has wandered onto trustee authority and the trustees dislike it. The executive committee voted 11-0 to adopt the report at a' closed meeting held Monday in the Governor's office. GOV. DISPLEASED Officials have learned that Gov. Hodges was displeased with the report and wanted to delay its submission to the trustees until this fall. The report was submitted by a subcommittee headed by Thomas Pearsall of Rocky Mount.

These called attention to the special cultural and scholarly facilities of the University, in particular the collections of Public Documents and their importance in the compara tive study of political and consti tutional systems. He is an honorary member of the Advisory Board of the Bureau of Public Documents Collection and Research established at UNC under the directorship of Prof. W. S. Jen kins in 1956. Coed Group To Help Plan Dorm Activities A new Women's student organiza tion to promote interest and partic ipation In extracurricular activities through dormitory coordination has been formed. Called the Carolina Women's Council (CWC), the organization will work jointly with other cam pus groups In sponsoring dormitory and campus events. It (is composed of two representa. tives from each dormitory and two from the Town Girls' Assn., ac cording to Miss Mary Morgan, secretary. The Council's first service next fall will be a breakfast during orientation week for the new wo men students Officers for the 1958-59 year are: President Miss Sue Ballantine of Hamlet; vice president Miss Jay Patterson, Short Hills, N. J.; sec retaryMiss Morgan, Fayetteville; and treasurer Miss Jackie Turner, Raleigh. The president's office will be located in New East Annex. This one will come from a fac ulty committee appointed at the request of the trustees to examine administrative procedures as af fected by the Board of Higher Education. Unless future compromise ef forts prove successful, the issue is certain to be tossed into the lap of the 1959 General Assembly. The Board of Higher Education may thus have to fight for its existence. FEUD SOURCE Friction developed when the trustees called for construction of housing units for married under graduates at State College. The Board of Higher Education cut the number of housing units. Trustee W. C. Harris Jr. of Ra leigh charged that the Board had usurped authority of the trustees. Board spokesmen answered that they were only complying with the housing act, which required the board's okay before the units could be built. Thus far dhc major dispute is the trustee claim that the Board of Higher Education has sup planted boards of trustees. Daily Tar Heel Staff To Hold Meeting Today There will be a meeting of all members of The Daily Tar Heel staff in the news room today at 4 p.m. Editor Curtis Gans has urged all present and prospective members of The Daily Tar Heel staff to at tend the meeting.

Dr. Haydon explained1 he is con centrating on hymn cycles known during the first half of the 16th century. He has already completed work on two of the four hymn cycles of that period. By PRINGLE PIPKIN A latent rumor that the Univer sity intended to' convert the halls of the Dialectic- Senate and the Phi- e lanthropic Literary Society into classrooms was squelched yester day. Dean James L. Godfrey, chair man of the University Space Com mittee, said the societies would not be disturbed but the University could use the space if it had it. A move to put these organizations into Person Hall after the Art Dept. leaves originated with a re quest from these societies to the Space Committee last year. John Brooks. Phi president, said the move would provide an equal exchange of space. Person Hall would provide smaller debating halls better suited for the present societies. GALLERY In Person Hall the organizations would have a gallery to hang about 70 of their 90 portraits of renewned alumni and professors. Placing these organizations in this building was also expected to involve fewer alternations than necessary for a conventional classroom. Recently there has been talk of putting the Di and the Phi in Ger rard Hall. Under such a plan the societies would ask for full authority over the use of the building. I The hall jkvould also have t0 be altered to make it a debating hall. ! don't think that the situation has been given any serious thought," Brooks commented. Another current rumor is that the two debating societies would move to the new student union when it is completed. Brooks said the Phi had dis cussed this proposal with the direc tors of Graham Memorial. . In the new student union the de bating societies would only be al lowed to use rooms but would not have jurisdiction over them. "The new facilities will be far less than what we now have." Brooks said. At the present time the furnish ings and the rooms of the debating societies are owned by them through a specific agreement with the Uni versity, according to Brooks. , A: W l( 1 (1 1 1 Oil n M: t m ANGEL FLIGHT MEMBERS The twelve coeds above, chosen from 60 nominees, have been taken into Angel Flight, sponsor group for the Air Force ROTC program.

It would be presided over by a member of the IDC Court. A house council plan was also discussed throrghly. This plan would be on an individual dormi tory basis. The individual courts would be composed of the executive committee of each dormitory.

A bill calling for immediate ces sation of all tests was defeated, seven to four. In introducing the bill. Rep. Don Jacobs said that cessation of the present tests in the Pacific and all other tests would be "the first step toward outlawing the utter destruction of mankind.' He saw the testing of bombs as "produc tive of dangersous radiations" that can do permanent harm to the genetic makeup of man. Rep. Stan Black said "the fight between Russia and the U. S. can only bring a peace in which victor and vanquished are destroyed." He called for passage of the bill on the moral issue. Rep. Bill Fackert claimed the Works Of Famous Poets To Be Petite Program Sunday evening at 8 o'clock Les Petites Dramatiques will offer an evening of poetry readings at Ger- lard Hall.

Rep. Carl Matheson said the "U. S. is the bulwark of Democracy and must not dusert the Western nations.'' If we lose our techno logical abilities, the others "will be open to Soviet conquest," he said. Rep. Bill Jackson said the U. S., in continuing to test small weapons, is "assuming that Russia will press many small wars in the future, and force must be met with force.." v After stating that the U. S. must be as well equipped as Russia to maintain security, Rep. Bob Morely said "Atomic weapons are not bad in themselves; it is the people who use them." Rep. Bill Lin?berry catalogued the effects of radiation at Hiroshi ma and cited the world reaction to this as proof that the opinions of uncommitted nations will force tests should be stopped The money j Russia to keep their agreements if saved should be spent on feeding and clothing the millions of India, China, and Africa, he said.. After introducing as an exhibit some radioactive glass, Rep. Henry Gould lambated the bill on the srounds that Russia can never be we cease testing. In the voting Phi representatives defeated the bill seven to four. A vote of all tho:$e present was againsf passage seven to six. Rep.
