Library Group Gets Graduate As Member As Representative Of Grad Students Student Body President Don Furtado has appointed George M. Tatum as graduate representative to the Student Library Committee. Tatum was recommended for this appointment by the Graduate Club at a club meeting Monday night. Problems affecting graduate stu dents were also brought up at the Graduate Club meeting by club President Bob Rennick. Rennick told the group that the graduate student is looked on as being out of the framework of stu dent life by undergraduates and ad ministrators, and pointed out that the "O.G.II." controversy pointed up the fact that the graduate stu dents have more legitimate avenues in which to take their grievances. He pointed out that openings in student government exist for grad uate students, including the newly created position on the library com mittee. The graduate club, Rennick e plained, should be the organ trrough vwucn graduate students can express tnemselves. He concluded by saying that grad ume Muuenis nave a responsibility to the campus, and should take more of an interest in the campus 5ee LIBRARY GROUP, Page 3 Dr. Robert Rupen Speaking Tonight Dr. Robert A.

U.S. Red China Policy bebated At Phi Meet The Phi Society Tuesday night aeieated a bill calling for a more conciliatory policy toward Red China, but passed a proposal ask ing for recognition of communist China. The full bill was defeated In a vote by articles the society ueieaiea me conciliatory policy, dui passed the proposal for recog nition of Red China. Guest Critic for the evening was Dr. Shepard Trt MAC W rK t . . 1 wuiics, yiuiessur oi political sci ence at UNC. Rep. Don Jacobs introduced the v. : 1 1 .1 i ... uiu, vimracierizing me cola war as a "gigantic chess game, in which we are on the defensive." He advised a more conciliatory policy that would put the Rus sians on the defensive by throw ing them off guard. Rep. Jacobs added that recognition of Red China is "just what the Russians don't want." Realism rather than conciliation was urged by guest Jeffrey Laerence. He favored recognition of Red China on a basis of realis tic considerations. Rep. Carl Matheson pointed out that if we "give 'em an inch, they'll take a mile. We must set for ourselves a line behind which we will not retreat." A motion by Rep. John Curti3 to substitute "realistic" for fcon ciliatory" in the wording of the bill was defeated on the ground that it would alter the whole character of the bill. The containment policy as de ined by the State Dept. was heavily indicted on the basis of its past performance by Rep. Bob Morely. "We have been very un friendly to Russia since 1946, sup porting any government no mat er how corrupt, that said it was anti-Communist." Guest Norman Smith defined Soviet aims as domination of the entire world and denied that they would stop short of it. tfn his comments on the debate Dr. Jones first praised the Phi for its service to the University and its contribution to student life In the developmeni of speaking abil ities. He felt that the interest in world issues expressed in its de bate was a sign of a healthy atti tude on campus. Concerning the debate itself h felt that the word "realism" had been used with too much emotion al connotation. Many were mere ly for realism with little reason. He didn't agree that recognition of Red i China is necessary under present conditions.

Student Party Caucus Planned Today At 6:30 Student Party legislators have been urged to attend a party cau cus today at 6:00 p.iri. in Roland Parker I. The discussion will in clude consideration of the proposed revised elections laws. An Interfraternity Council weeK end, tentatively scheduled for Dec. 5 and 6, has been postponed. IFC President Tucker Yates ex plained that Woollen Gym was avail able only after 6 p.mv Dec. 6. The Playipakers had already reserved Memorial Hall for that weekend. It was proposed that the IFC weekend be held at the conclusion of Greek Week. The annual pledge banquet would be discontinued. Greek Week awards would be pre sented at the dance or concert. No date has been set for Greek Week, but it will probably be in February or early March. The IFC voted unanimously to let the Men's Press Club produce the IFC Handbook, which is given to freshmen during orientation. Charlie Sloan represented the Press Club, which is seeking a charter as a member of Sigma Del ta Chi, national journalism fraterni ty. Sloan said the work would be nancued on an "employe-employer relationship.' Details of the ar rangement wm be worked out by the IFC Handbook Committee and the Men's Press Club. The fraternities will have a chance to inspect the book and make de sired changes before its publication. Sloan asked that the Press Club be allowed to sell advertisements. Some of the revenue would be used to improve the handbook and part of it would go to the Press Club. Yates appointed several house presidents to form a committee to meet with Sam Magill, ast. dean of student affairs, to discuss chang es in the visiting agreement. Nominations for three vacant seats on the IFC Court were made. Those nominated include: Bob Burroughs, Garret Folger, Joe , Alexander, Wayne Venters and -Marshall Hap per. The three seats will be filled at the next IFC meeting. The IFC decided to send a rep resentative to the National Inter fraternity Council Conference which will be held in Atlanta the first week in December. It was decided to let the YMCA contact the individual fraternity houses in order to arrange for foreign students to speak during UN Week rather than, work through the IFC. Late Hours Granted For Germans Weekend Women's Residence Council de cided Tuesday night to allow all freshmen girls to have late per missions on Friday, Oct. 31. This permission was granted because of the Fall Germans dance, but is not limited to those attending the dance. The council also granted special permission to freshmen girls par ticipating in the freshmen field trip to New York. The weekend will not count as one of the three weekends, away from this cam pus granted to freshmen girls. Another late permission was granted to girls wishing to attend Duke or State concert programs. This decision will hold throughout the year. By STAN BLACK A new proposal by a dissident dormitory for a district court sys tem was shelved by the IDC in its regular meeting last night. A second matter underconsidera- tion, the proposed paid intramurals manager system, was deferred un til the next regular meeting of the body on November 3. The district court proposal was introduced by Foy Bradshaw iri be half of the executive committee of Grimes Dormitory, which has stat ed that it feels the Dormitory Coun cil Court (DDC) system passed last week is unconstitutional and unen forceable. The amendment which would havp cnanged the system reads,' in part H-V, ri . .... ' - vuuu Mian De composed of me IDC Court per se and six dormi tory district courts." It was felt by most of the IDC members present that the flaws in the DCC system were too trivial to require a whole new -setup. In a policy statement IDC Presi dent Rudy Edwards declared that any dormitory officers refusing to enforce the DCC system will be re moved from office and new elections held. It was stated after the meeting by Graham Adams, president of Grimes Dorm, that under no cir cumstances can he enforce the Drr k system as passed. Several amendments to the DCC system itself were proposed by Otto Funderburk. They will be act ed on at the next meeting. The Intramural Manager proposal was introduced by President Rudy Edwards. The purpose of paying the managers, as he saw it, would be ( lu "liure e presence of adeauafl ; i managers in the The possibility of removal of a manager for .student apathy was brought up by Doug Bayliff and others.

Campus Code Abolishment Voted By Di A bill proposing the abolition of the Campus Code and substitu tion of a statement of individual rights was passed by members of the Dialectic Senate three votes to one Tuesday night. The combined vote of onpete and senators defeated the hill iv to five. Senator Norman Smith. nesraHw speaker on the bill, said of th code, "The fault lies in that we are trying to define something n. defineable." He said that attempts at defining a moral code ha long been tried and failed. A guest speaker, talking nega tively on the bill, said the Campus Code does allow for an element of change. He cited the Ten Com mandments as an example of moral laws still in effect. Senator Curtis Gans. who nrn. posed the bill, argued that 4 It is not for government to tell any individual; these are the values ytm must have." Senator Gans said, "Whether or not a girl wears bermuda shorts to town is up to her." He also said the Campus Code enforces too rigid or too lax an order depend ing upon" individual interpreta tion. Senator Pebley Barrow, nega tive speaker, said, "Freedom with responsibility is the key." He agreed that a statement of indi vidual rights be spelled out in or der that the individual does no transgress the rights of others. Senator Barrow said that the main problem of the Campus Code "lies in the negligence of individu als who fail to do something about the conduct of others- which is their responsibility under the Code." Greer Bill ' Draws Silence From Furtado Student President Opposes Restrictions Student Body President Don Fur tado yesterday expressed his dis approval of discriminatory clauses in organizational charters, but he declined comment on a bill before Student Legislature which would, in effect, deny recognition to any group with a restrictive clause. This particular bill, introduced by Gary Greer (SP), calls for the dele tion of an amendment to a National Student Association declaration of basic policy. The NSA's declaration would deny campus recognition of any organiza tion having discriminatory clauses except those groups who aim to bring together those of a sDecific religion.. An amendment to this declara tion passed last year by Student Legislature said Legislature did not recommend the denial of recogni tion to any organization whose na tional charter includes restriction clauses as to membership. Furtado said yesterday he would make no statement pro or con on' Greer's bill currently before Legis lature until he has had a chan to review the original amendment to the NSA declaration. The essence of his statement yes terday against discriminatory clauses was that no more organiza tions with such clauses should come to this campus, but that or ganizations now here with these clauses should not be ejected from the University. Furtado said he does, however, want to see the removal of dis criminatory clauses from groups on campus. As to the way this should be done, he said, "I believe that the initiative for removal of the clauses must come internally. Stu dents should not use this to become an excuse for stagnation, however, as it could easily become."
