Carolina's Tar Heels, the number jne team in the nation, put their op ranking on the line tonight when they journey to Maryland to battle he defending Atlantic Coast Con ference champion Terrapins at 8 o'clock. The powerful Tar Heels will be gunning for their 12 straight victory, ;:nd a win tonight can clinch at least a tie for the regular season CC championship. Carolina's con 'erence record is 11-0 with three qarncs remaining. Coach Bud Millikan's crew will need a victory over the Heels to stay in the league's fir.st division, j The Terps arc currently in fourth place with a 5-7 record; their over1 all mark is 7-12. Heels Won First Game Carolina has defeated Maryland once this season, beating the Terps ct 37 in Chapel Hill. York Lare.se developed hot hands in that one and banged in 32 points for the winners. Maryland considered a definite conference threat before the season t-egan, has disappointed us in its so- so play. In their last outing, the Ter rapins bowed to lowly Virginia 02 0. Carolina's lat game saw them whip sixth-rated North Carolina State for the second time this sea son, this time by 74-07. The Terps' finest hour came early in the season in a losing cause when they pushed then first-ranked Kentucky to the limit before bow ing 56-54. Last season Maryland lured the Tar Heels into their spacious coli seum and handed them their first conference loss before a booing sell out crowd of 13,000. Carolina later 17-1 Rccort? The Tar Heels, who go into the contest with a 17-1 overall record, continue to place all five starters in a double figure scoring average. Sop guard York Larese leads the pack with 16.S, followed by Lee Shaffer (13.9), Doug Moe (13.2), Harvey Salz (11.4) and Dick Kep pley (10.6). I The big guns for " Maryland will be Charlie McNeil, Al Bunge and Jim Halleck. Gene Danko and Bill Murphy will probably fill out the Terrapin line-up. Coach Frank McGuire said of the game, "It's time for Maryland to have a big game, and this being Legislature, Student Party, Orien tation, Honor Council Jury, Current Affairs Committee, State Student Legislature and the Consolidated University Council.

Bennett, director of operations. The probe is in answer to a let ter from student body President Don Furtado, in which were re ported the findngs of a committee formed to determine the need of uch facilities and to suggest so- utions to the study problems exist ing. "My department will do all we can to fill these needs," said Ben nett, "but the biggest problem is money. There's so much to be done by way of improvement that my department must make sure that the items suggested in Mr. Furta- do's letter are of more importance hen improved necessary. I can't ay anything further until we have time to look over the dorms." According to Furtado's letter, "It was pointed out (by the com mittee on improvements) that the physical facilities of the study rooms in the women's dormitories were often not conducive to the maintenance of the atmosphere of study.", Listed in Furtados letter 'were the following suggestions for Im provement, as compiled by Char- lene Bass, member of the Women's Residence Council: Whitehead Dorm, at least three floor lamps, comfortable chairs for the study room; Spencer, at least two card tables for the study room; Alderman, lamps for every desk in the social room, better hooting in the study room, some place to type after hours; . Mclver, lamps for tables in the study room, new file cabinet, com fortable chairs for the study, room; Carr, a study room, as no facili- present; and Smith and Nurses Dorms, noth ing needed. Bennett has conferred with wo men's Dean Katherine Carmichael, who reports full backing of the project. miscellaneous. "Naturally. I favor the continued independence and student control of The Daily Tar Heel. However, the price of student freedom is student responsibility. EDITORIAL IRRESPONSIBILITY "A good example of editorial ir responsibility was the recent series on sex at UNC by Cort Edwards. Sex is a delicate subject at any time; there is always a thin line between comment which is in good taste and comment which is vulgar andor childishly obscene. Had it been my decision, this particular series would have found its way into the waste basket. "As editor, my first act will be to restore Peanuts, Pogo, and Li'l Abner to the editorial page, from which space nothing short of World War HI will remove them. "All other campus issues are now secondary in importance to the over' riding need for more money. We need more money for the serfs who toiL4n .our Jacwlty; ,.we , need mor( money for the library. which is now inadequate and daily growing more so; we need more money for a de cent gymnasium to house the na tional champs; we need more money for a student union. In short, the University must have more money. As editor, I can assure you that the paper will emphasize this prob lem and give loyal support to Pres ident Friday and Chancellor Ay cock in this crucial area. GIVES POLITICAL STAND "My general political stance is that of a Lyndon Johnson Democrat. I agree with the political leadership of North Carolina that Supreme Court decisions are the law of the land. On foreign policy problems I am with Senator Fullbright of Ar kansas who seems to think that talking with the Russians is better than fighting them. "I am not a crusader; I do not By DAVE JONES The Research Triangle, the down grading of public servants, public school finance and a Student Union were among the topics touched upon by memebrs of the faculty of the Economics Department when asked about the 1959-61 Budget. The governor seems to be in consistent in placing so much em phasis on the Research Triangle and then neglecting two of the three organizationsup on which it is most dependent, UNC and State," said Prof. Paul N. Guthrie, chairman of the Department of Economics. "One thing that seems to be for gotten is that the Legislature, even when it does well, makes appropria tions to match existing needs not realizing that by the time that the biennium ends, we may have 1,000 more students who will have needs to be taken care of," Guthrie said. ATTRACTING PROFS PROBLEM "One of the greatest concerns I have is the problem of holding full professors and of attracting new full professors. If the sort of recom mendation as those made is adopted, it would place us in an almost im possible position. We are competing not only with other colleges but with business and with government This is especially true in economics and business administration. "If the University is going to compete for professors, our competi tion will not only be local or region aland this is where a lot of people delude themselves but will be na tional. We must compete with YaK Harvard, California and universities all over the country." Guthrie con cluded. Prof. Lowell D. Ashby said, "In general it's invreasingly difficult for the University to maintain itself at bargain prices." He saidthat it was impossible to "maintain a good department in absence of a good salary for the staff, even with a good dean and research facilities." UNIVERSITIES RATED LOW "The fact is that universities are generally rated low and that other government services are also low. UNC leaders Present Views Before Board Five Consolidated University of North Carolina leaders will present their viewpoint on the present budget as recom mended by the Advisory Budget Commission at a meeting of the full Board of Trustees to be held Monday, at 1 1 a.m. at the Capitol in Raleigh. President William Friday, Chancellors William Aycock, Gordon Blackwell, and Carey Bostian of Carolina, State, and Woman's College will give their I commentary as a kickoff in a cam paign to get funds for the three Universities. At a Chancelor's Cabinet meet ing held yesterday, Aycock an nounced that the University would present its recommendations for the capital improvements budget to the Board of Higher Education, March 6. MEETING TO FIX POLICY The meeting will be held to fix the Board's policy towards the cap ital improvements of the various institutions in light of the Advis ory Budget Commission's recom mendations. The Consolidated University of North Carolina officials will also meet with the joint appropriation:, committee March 18. where approx imately three hours is reserved for them. The Chancellor gave the group a breakdown on the budget figure which was prepared during the past several days, when many meeting have been held to study the budget. APPEAL TO STUDENTS Both Aycock and Dean of Stu dent Affairs Fred Weaver appeal ng progress more difficult rather than easier. LIBRARY SITUATION In commenting of the library situation, Aycock pointed out that the University was trying to achieve a 400,000 annual book buy ing budget by 1970 and added that the University in recommending $527,000 for book buying in the biennium had raised their request with respect to the last biennium's appropriations by $130,000, a fig ure approximately $50,000 more than was necessary to build a grad ual program until 1970 to a two year spending total of $800,000.

The Chancellor made it clear that no person was being told to keep silent and that the right to express opinion was something that he had no wish to tamper with, however, he added that local com mentary, notably by The Daily Tar Heel, was in his opinion mak- own a soap box. It has been my The public takes little pride in its experience that crusaders and soap public servants." In pursuing this Irregularities Found, But No Dishonesty By NEIL MURPHY The Institute of Government's rec ords were found to contain "irregu larities" by the State Audit Board yesterday. The board also reported there was no evidence of dishonesty. W. D. Carmichael Jr., vice presi dent and finance officer of the Uni versity, said the criticism in the audit report "was aimed at proce dures" and "there was no shortage of funds." The report said, "Due to the lack lof internal control, the inadequate records and receipts, and the loose manner of handling cash, the total amount of receipts could not be ac curately determined. Since the rec ords were inadequate, it was not possible to make a final determina tion of the unrecorded receipts. "Therefore," the report said, "we have relied on the memorandums of disbursements as being a more ac curate basis for establishing the amount of unrecorded receipts.' A member of the Institute of Gov ernment staff said, "It is all caused by state red tape. At times money was simply taken in and spent with out recording or depositing it in the usual way." boxers never achieve their objec tives. The dogmatic fanaticism of the crusader is not to be confused with a genuine liberalism which gets results. I will amplify this basic plat form in subsequent statements awl speeches in the course of the campaign." line of reasoning Ashby recom mended "The Affluent Society" by John Kenneth Galbraith as a good primer. Noon Deadline For Orientation Coordinator Junior coeds have until noon to day to file for women's orientation coordinator. Originally this position was wo men s orientation chairman until two separate men's and women's orientation committees combined to operate under one chairman However, the women's coordina tor still has virtually the same responsibilities.
