Parking Meters
Still Drawing
Complaints
By CHUCK FLINNER
You don't have any trouble find-

Chapel Hill Police Chief W.D
Blake said yesterday. Police had
received a number of complaints
on the meters but felt the people
would soon adjust to them.
One of the major complaints con-
cerned the red indicator which con-
tinues on the half-hour meters for
24 minutes. The pointer shows the
checking officer how long the time
has been exnirrd. It is designed to
give the violator a break if the
rr.eter has been expired only a
short time. The one hour meters
show up to 12 minutes tolerance.
Many Chapel Hill users often
think the meter has not yet ex-

INCLUDED TIN WHISTLER
Pogo Background Explained
By MIKE O'HARA
- A tin whistler, a drawer of funny
pictures, a political cartoonist all
these things are part of the back
ground of Pogo's ' creator, Walt
KeLry.
Mr. Kelly spoke to the second
meeting of the Carolina Forum last
night after a rousing introduction by
the Journalism School Dean Norval
Neil Luxon.
The cartoonist quickly explained
that he was born in Philadephia of
rich but dishonest parents." How
ever, he moved to Bridgeport, Conn.,
at the age of two "taking his moth
er, his father and a large number of
animal crackers."
Afterwards he worked on a paper
as a reporter he was told that the
salary was little but he'd meet some
interesting people "They were right
the pay wasn't much."
Kelly went west "in search of
food" and ended up in Hollywood
working as an artist for Walt Disney
He also played tin wistle with the
"Firehouse Five."
After seven flops, Kelly finally
made a hit. His strip is carried by
517 papers with a combined circul
ation of 44 million.
The most important thing that a
cartoonist can do is point out the
failings of the human race. Kelly ex
plained that he had no message as
such. "Human beings are the fun

west by such schools as UCLA,
USC and Stanford.
Dave Wible. co-chairman of the
PiKA "Beat Dook" float commit -
tee, spoke briefly on the plans for
the parade. He said that a night
parade had been proven to be un
feasable. A committee of three was ap
pointed by President Dave Jones

Each semester the books on re

Library Group
Is Conducting
Stack Checks
The Student Library Committee
conducted a check of the stack
area Tuesday night in order to
determine if there were people in
the stacks who did not have per
mits. Of 12!) people checked 27 people
either did not have a stack permit
or did not have their stack per
mit with them. Those who did not
have permits were reminded that
the proper procedure to get a
stack permit was to apply to their
" faculty adviser.
Those who did not have permits
were told not to use the stack
area until they got one. The only
way to gain legal access to the sta
cks is with a permit. An invitation
of a friend who has a permit is not
sufficent.
The committee plans to conduct
Mure checks at unannounced
times. Some action will be taken
after the first warning aginst re
peated violatiors.
Harold Johnson

Harold Johnson was re-elected4
president of Alpha Phi Omega
Tuesday night by acclamation
Johnson began his second term in
office with the announcement of a

The fraternity decided to go to

A problem of space made it nec
essary to put the Regional Re

She stated that it is permissable
for a student working at the desk
to study if his other duties had
been attended to first.
Another criticism had been that
in the past the Law Student Li
brary Committee had been afraid
to function.
Lirrwqod Peoples, chairman of
After Kelly's "speech" students
stormed the stage in hopes of get-
lights millions of comic strip fans
every day.
The cartoonist who spoke at Hill
Sail last night refuses to think of
himself as a crusader. "I don't see
how anyone can think of himself as
crusader and keep a straight face
unless he's a fool."
His answer to the popular saying
that "You have to be an intellect
ual to understand Pogo" is that
most of his mail comes from chil-'
ren. "Would you consider a small
child an. intellectual?" he asked. He
added that he spends about one-
hird of his time . answering that
mail.
Pursuing the "intellectual" idea,
he said that he feels that the
American people are becoming more
intellectual and some comic strips,
newspapers and magizines fail to
relize it.
Asked if anyone that he had made
fun of in his strip had ever asked
him to "lay off", he answered that
anyone who admitted he was being
represented as an owl or a possum
was silly. "I can get away with a
lot," he reflected.
He doesn't feel its quite ethical to
throw out something he has already
started to comment on something
big" that happens in the world.
If I haven't been smart enough to
see it coming, I don't think its quite
fair to jump on it later,"he said.
Kelly has only two assistants, one
to do the lettering and another who
colors the Sunday strip. He works
about six weeks in advance. He is
the only cartoonist who manages his
r
own work and is not connected with
a syndicate.
Saturday Deadline Set
For Car Registrations
Hugn Patterson, chairman of
the men's honor council, has called
attention to the Saturday deadline
for the registration of students
tomobiles.
Patterson said "Any student
who does not have car privileges
will be tried ly the appropriate
Honor Court unless this student
presents himself with the owner
of the car to Ray Jeffefries by
Nov. 15.
"It should be noted that both
the student who registered the car
and the student whose car was
registered are subject to trial by
the Honor Council unless the pre
viously stated action is taken prior
to Nov. 15."
the committee, said the commit
tee had solicited recommendations
for the improvement of the li
brary.
When the suggestions have been
completed they will be submitted
to the librarian, he said.
Since the committee was ap
proved in mid-October it has me
several times informally. Tuesday
night it met with Law Student
Association President Joseph B
Chambliss.
"Through our committee w

25th Session's
Last Meeting
Starting Early
By STAN FISHER
The Student Legislature, con
vening tonight for the last meeting
of its 25th session, will act on
Gary Greer's amended proposal
to put Honor Council juror select
ion on a campus-wide basis.
The meeting will be at 7 p.m.
in the Phi Hall, fourth floor New

earlier than the body usually as
sembles. Bills to be acted upon tonight
other than Greer's jury selection
proposal are as follows:
.(DA proposal to provide any
student organization with an op
portunity to consider and voice
an openion on legislation affecting
the organization.
If this bill should pass the as
sembly, any prospective introducer
would have to confer with the
chairman of the organization who
se structure, jurisdiction, or area
of responsibility would be altered
by the proposed legislation.
The bill would be incorporated
into the by-laws of the Legisla
tive. Given adequate time, the
organization would be required to
make the proper arrangements if
the affec'ted organization would
voice an openion on the Iegisla- !
ticn.
(2) A bill to establish a commit
tee to study the drinking rules of
the University.
The committee, if the bill passes,
would investigate the problem and
make recommendations to the ad
ministration and University Board
of Trustees. It would report back
to the legislature not later than
four weeks after the committee
has been set up.
(3) A proposal advocating the
pavement of the dirt area be
tween Lenior Hall and Law School.
(4) A bill placing the Carolina
Forum and State Student Legisla

This bill proposes the combining

session in December.
(5) A bill to submit for ratif
ication by the Student Body an
amendment to the Student Con
stitution calling for a single an

appropriate legislation be instituted
to correctly modify all existing
applicable by-laws and statutes.
The bill to put Honor Council
juror selection on a campus-wide
basis will be making its third
appearence before the legislators
tonight. Last Thursday night the
controversial proposal was tempor
ary tabulated so legislators might
look over amendments proposed
by Norman Smith (Ind.) and John
Brooks (SP).
The proposed amendments put
'teeth" in the jury slection bill.
They provided that any juror call
ed who fails to show may be de
prived of his right to vote in
campus elections and to hold
student government offices, un
less excused by the attorney gen
