"We now have top notch people, I can't keep them, I don't want to keep them at salaries that are un fair. If we are going to keep sal aries low, we are going to have to aim at mediocre people that we can keep, rather than top' flight ones." Dr. Adkins also discussed the problems of space for the Depart ment of Psychology. She said that presently it is impossible to under take new research projects and that she has had to turn down some at tractive federal contracts as a re sult.

Eyre, of the De partment of Geography said "Teach ing is a low salaried profession and salary increases are essenuai m order to attract and to hold talented teachers who will, in turn, attract talented students. "The University of North Caro lina has entered a period of bitter competition with prominent state and private universities, govern ment and business, all of which have higher, constantly rising sal ary levels. , , "The budget as now proposed calls for faculty to meekly accept in creased teaching loads without just compensation in salary and a reduc tion of time for research and other University activities." TEACHING IS HARD Professor Eyre also said, "The number of classroom hours taught in a poor guide to faculty output." He pointed to lecture preparation, reading of recent professional jour nals and books, the correction of ex aminations, as well as campus and extra-campus activjties which crowd the faculty members' working day and intrude on his evening hours Prof. John W. Thibaut of the Psy chology Department said the bud get was an indication of a "lack of confidence, a basic scepticism in the utility of the JJniversity to the state." "I feel that the national reputa tion of the University will 6uffer un less the money is restored. But, I think it is not the money, it is what it symbolizes trust by the Legis lature and the people in the Uni vprcitv Financial navments are appropriations requested in the maintanance and operations budget. The Board unanimously approved Friday's plea. Chancellor Aycock repeated the needs to approximately 250 faculty members, administration personnel and students in Carroll Hall. He named four main items in the main tanance and operations budget which required the complete restoration of funds: 1. faculty salary increases, 2. new personnel, 3. library books and journals and 4. new equipment and supplies. Young Attacks Editor s Policy Davis Young, the sole candidate cess of totdly immersing The Daily "I could not choose one of the?e at the exclusion of any of the oth ers," Aycock stated. "A well paid faculty is almost useless without necessary equipment, supplies ami books." University officials will appear be fore the General "Assembly March 18 to present their case for restora tion of the budget. "We will prob ably have no opportunity to talk, but we will no doubt be cross ex amined and required to defend our case," Aycock said. He stated that it would be neces sary to get favorable assistance to the cause of the University.. "Thiis may be difficult," he said, "bi2 couse I do not see how we can gist our restoration without new sources of revenue. While pelading our cause we cannot divorce ourselves from the cause of public schools. They can help us and we can help them." He warned the members of the audience against the use of statis tics, mistaken facts and negative statements. He explained that it would be incorrect to say that the Duke University gets better support for their library than the Univer sity. The University has a larger professional staff than Duke but has a smaller number of books and pe riodicals. "Statistics are misleading and ev eryone will have a separate set. They could be used against us," he warned.

Referring to an article attack him in Tuesday's paper, Young said, "The editor laid down a set of commendable ground rules for The Daily Tar Heel coverage of this election, but nowhere in these ground rules did he state that his columnists would be given free rein to tee off on the candidates." He said that he was "very grate ful to Sidney Dakar for his editorial page attack on me."

SP Forms Committee A new Organization Committee was crystalized Tuesday by the Advisory Board of the Student Party, the prime objective of which will be to increase support for the SP In the spring elections.
