Immediate action will be taken in the areas of fraternities and dormi tories, he stressed. Specific pro blems needing work are fraternity scholarship and faculty relations. In the dorms living conditions, so cial activities, and safety measures will get attention. Concerning finances. Gray noted that as treasurer this past year he has seen much loose handling of funds by student government sup ported organizations. A year-round budget committee will be set up to deal with this problem and others arising in the field. Other campus problems that will be looking into soon include high laundry charges, the high cost of books and the handling of student traffic violations. Also some action must be taken to liberalize or clari fy the drinking and gambling rul es, according to Gray. Concerning the Student Party control of the Student Legislature. Gray said that " I only hope that we can approach these problems with a united and cooperative viewpoint." He emphasized that he will disregard party lines in mak ing key campus appointments in the coming weeks. David Grigg, newly elected vice president of the student body and speaker of the Student Legislature, added his request for bipartisan ac tion toward the solution of camp us problems. Noting that voting in the Legislature has traditionally cut across party lines, Grigg said that "if we work together, this can be a truly productive year for student government," Jim Crownover, former SP floor leader, concurred with the UP leaders' remarks, saying that "our 30-20 majority in Student Legis lature can help to make it an ef fective instrument of Student.

Hank Patterson, chairman of the Elections Board, said Monday that Roy B. Goodman would appear be fore the council for violation of the Election Law, Article IV, Sec tion 4. This article states: "No candidate for office shall be a poll tender in the district in which he is a candidate." l-'atterson said Goodman, a can didate for Legislature from Dorm Men's IH, tended the poll in Alex ander Dorm between 2 and 4 p.m. April 7. Goodman signed his name to the roster of poll tenders. Because of this violation, Good man has been summoned to appear before Student Council. Patterson said the council, in acting on Goodman's case, will interpret the meaning of another Election Law clause in question. This clause is in Article IV, Sec tion 5, which states: "The Elec- while operating a poll, shall report all violators of Sections 3 and, or 4 to the appropriate council, after having given said violators due warning." Patterson said the council must rule as to what the meaning of "due warning" is. The Elections Board sent Goodman's case to Stu dent Council on the assumption that "due warning" meant warning between the time he attended the poll and the Student Council hearing. Other interpretations of ''due warning," Patterson said, could l1: a warning before the act was cim mitted by informing candidates or a warning made while the candi date was tending the poll. Patterson said Goodman did not receive the warning before the act was eommiiteed because he was not present at the compulsory can didate's meeting where the voting procedure was explained. And the reason Goodman did not attend that meeting, Patterson said, was because he had been declared in eligible to run for office, then later Sports Editor Resigns Post; Cooper Named The University String Quartet will perform Haydn, and Bartok and Brahms tonight for the fifth concert of the Tuesday evening Series.

N. Model Assembly Elects UNC Students Two UNC students were elected to offices during the U.N. Model Assembly held here. last weekend. Election of officers climaxed a three-day program of speakers and discussion centered around such problems as the admission of Red China to the United Nations. Roger Foushee of UNC was elect ed president of the state Collegiate Council for the United Nations (CCUN). The CCUN was the spon soring organization for the Model Assembly. Bob Silliman, also a student here, was named chairman of the Con tinuations Committee by Foushee. Elected as vice president of the North Carolina CCUN was Charles Jones of John C- Smith University. Besides the election of new of ficers, the Model Assembly sessions Saturday were concerned with va rious resolution presented by "committees." Debate waxed warm Saturday morning between the Indian and Pakistan delegations over the mat ter of holding a plebisite in Kash mir. The measure, proposed by Pakistan in committee, was oppos ed by India because Kashmir is presently under control of India. Despite opposition, this measure was approved by the Assembly. The delegates also passed a dis armament plan which was propos ed by Pakistann. An amendment 'ty." to the plan, which called for the banning of nuclear weapons, was proposed by Bob Silliman of UNC. The amendment was added before the bill passed. A proposal to admit Red China to the United Nations was thrown out by the Assembly because the issue was considered a matter for the Credentials Committee and not the body. The issue involves giv ing credit to one Chinese govern ment, not of recognizing Red China. The Assembly tabled a motion by Vince Mulerie of UNC to estab lish a U.N. world police force. Rusty Hammond, sophomore and sports editor for The Daily Tar Heel for this year has given his resignation to new Editor Davis B. Young. In a statement to Young, he said, "I wish io make it lcear first of all that I am resigning for purely personal reasons. My aca demic load and my other campus activities have been neglected at the expense of the job. "The changing of editors has ab solutely nothing to do with my resignation; the decision to quit was made many week ago. I have enjoyed being sports editor of The Daily Tar Heel, but I feel that 1 can no longer do a proper job with all things considered." He added, "The two main rea sons for my resignation are that I must take six courses both sem esters of next year in order to en ter Law school, and that I feel that whoever takes my place should have the extra experience gained from having the job this spring. "I am sure that the man chosen to replace me will do a good job and I am ready to offer him any assistance he may need." Hammond concluded, "Since the first consideration of school is aca demics, I feel that I must devote more time to them." Editor Young expressed regret over Hammond's resignation com menting, "Rusty is one of the fin est young sports writers this school has had in a long time. He will certainly be missed in this capaci- Bartok's last string quartet, No. 6, was composed in 1939, six years be fore the composer's death. A single theme, stated at the beginning of each movement, is used in various guises throughout the work. Quartet in A Minor, Op. 51, No. 2 is the second of three string quar tttc composed by Brahms. Quartet members Edgar and Dor othy Alden, Jean Heard and Mary Gray Clarke will make their second appearance on the Tuesday evening Series for the 1958-59 season. Both Dr. Alden, first violinist and associate conductor of the UNC Sym phony, and Miss Clarke, first 'cellist, teach in the Music Department. Mrs. Alden, violist and teacher of strings in Chapel Hill, has also had first chair position in the N. C. Sym phony and the University Symphony. Mrs. Heard, second violinist, has studied with Ottakar Cedek of the University of Alabama and with Mischa Mischakoff at the Juilliard School of Music in New York City. Dulles' condition aroused immed iate concern in Congress about who will represent the United States at the foreign ministers meeting in Ge neva May 11. Sen. George Aiken (R.-Vt.) said that unless Dulles is able to resume fulltime work by that date, "I would expect he woull resign." "I don't think the country can go on and on without an active head of the State Department,," Aiken said. Aiken was saying in effect that an acting secretary could not stand on an equal footing at Geneva with the ministers of the Soviet Union and the Western aliies of the United States. Eisenhower Worried Eisenhower, who Ls reported very worried about Dulles' illness, g3ve no clue to the future after a 45-min- jute visit with Dulles at Walter Reed Army Hospital today. The 71-year-old secretary, worn and haggard, returned to the hos pital yesterday after cutting short a rest stay in Florida. During his Florida visit, Dulles apparently failed to regain the of Communism. The decree, made public today, has world-wide effect. It says Catholics cannot vote "for parties or for candidates who, even strength he had when he was a full if they do not profess principles ! time architect and champion of ad Young immediately named El liott Cooper to replace Hammond, saying, "I am sure that Cooper can come colser to filling Ham mond's shoes than anyone else." Spain's Chaucer Is Lecture Topic Tonight Opponents of the bill argue that it is an inhuman and impractical means to curb what is basically a social question. All of these points and others will be hroueht out in toniffht's Hugh Ragsdale and Frank Craighiil, Ideate. Ann Lucas was appointed to serve with Hal Miller aus co-chairman of the Social Committee. According to Duff, the members of the GMAB Productions Board are nirmbcri at large; Sally Pullen, drama chairman; Ross Link and Rudy Walklorf, co-chairmen of the Siar Series Committee, and R. V. Fulk, music chairman. All interested persons have been invited to attend and participate. The Society will meet at 8 p.m. In Phi Hall on the fourth floor of New East WAA Revote Set Today A re-vote ls being held today for president of the Women's Ath letic Association. The two candi dates are Catherine Bolton (SP) and Martha Custis (independent). The re-vote is being held because Miss Custis' name was ommitted from the absentee ballots. Her name had not been printed on the ballots because her petition of candidacy was misplaced until af ter the printing. Polls will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. today in all coed dorms, except Kenan, and in front of Ger rard Hall (or inside the Y In case of rain). The poll at Kenan will be open from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Kenton's Boys Rock Antonio's By EDWARD NEAL RINER Antonio's was rocking Monday night. Some of Stan Kenton's boys drop ped in for supper and then pulled out their instruments and let go with jazz. Saturday night after the Ger man's Concert here in Memorial Hall, six of the players went to the pizza house for supper. They then said they would return Mon day night at 7:30 with other mu sicians to play. Kenton played at Ft. Bragg Sun day and left Durham today for other engagements. "The Spanish Chaucer" is th topic of the Humanities Division Faculty Lecture today in Carroll Hall at 8 p.m. Prof. John Esten Keller of the Department of Romance Languages will give the address. A professor of Spanish, Keller has been on the factuly since 1950, having taught at the University of Tennessee for three years after re ceiving his Ph.D. degree here ki 1946. Last month his. "Libro de ols Gatos," one of medieval Spain's great collections of short stories was published by the Spanish Su perior Council of Scientific Investigations. Prof. Keller is an authority on the Canticles of King Alfonso and is currently working on another book entitled "The Life and Times of Alfonso the Wise." Keller's lecture will conclude the 1958-59 series of faculty lectures sponsored by the Division of Hu manities in the College of Arts and Sciences. Student-Written Opera To Be Presented Here An original one act opera writ ten by two UNC students will be presented here April 18 and 19. The musical production which is being sponsored by the music and drama committees of Graham Memorial Activities Board will be gin at 8 p.m. in the Playmakers Theatre. No admission will be charged. The opera, "Whatever Passes Along the Paths of the Sea," was written by Thomas Rice, graduate student in the UNC Music Depart ment and by Russell Link, gradu ate student in the Drama Department. A short chamber cantata entitled "Fully Clothed in Armor, With Her Shield and Spear, Athena Emerges From the Forehead of Zeus," also by the two students, will precede the opera. in contrast to Catholic doctrines, or the attributes of Christianity, may unite with Communism or aid the Communists." A 1949 decree, excommunicating militant members of the Commun ist Party, explicity warned Catho lics not to join Communist Parties. It said Communism is materialist and anti-Christian. The new decree approved by the congregation of the Holy Of fice March 25 and signed by the Pope April 2 broadened that warning. Vatican sources said the measure was prompted at this time by the political situation in Sicily, an Itali an island in the Mediterranean. On that island Silvio Milazzo, wealthy landowner and longtime leader in the dominant Christian Democratic Party, last year formed ' a junta with the help of Commun ists and neo-Fascists. The junta governs the island, which has in ternal autonomy. Sicily is now in the midst of a campaign to elect June 7 a new regional assembly, which will pick a new junta. Christian Democratic regulars, opposing Milazzo, are fighting an uphill fight. Tonight Ernesto Cardinal Ruffini, Archbishop of Palermo, called at tention of all Roman Catholic Bis hops and archishops on the island to the Vatican decree. He said they and the clergy had "the task of bringing the decree to the attention of the faithful." Italy's Communist Party is the largest west of the Iron Curtain and the party newspaper, L'Unita, denounced the decree as "a new open intervention by the Church in Italian political life." Young Names Staff; Makes Few Changes The opera is based upon the Medusa-Perseus legend with vari ations on the actual legend. Ethel Casey, soprano, will sing the role of Cassiopeia; Rebecca Carnes will sing Andromeda. James Gibbs, tenor, will sing Cepheus; Marilyn Zschau, mezzo- soprano, will sing Medusa; and Hunter Tillman, baritone, will play the part of Perseus. i Martha Preston, Darwin Solo mon, Chanault Spence, Carolyn My ers, Margaret Starnes and James Tedder will also be included in the cast. The opera is scored for an in strumental ensemble and will be conducted by the composer. In the ensemble will be Martha Halliday, flute; Bill Evans, flute; Eddie Bass, trumpet; Fred Rieser, trumpet; Jim Lambeth, trombone; Bill Kel lam, tuba; Joanne Goulson, percus sion; Nancy Walker, piano-celeste; Daniel Gore, guitar; Ted Quast, vio lin, and Don Fouse, violoncello. With today's issue of The Daily Tar Heel, Editor Davis Young and his staff have "taken over." For the most part, there have been few staff changes. Six new staff members or new positions for old members were announced Monday by Young. Serving as associate editors are Frank Crowther and Harold O'Tuel. The new managing editors are Ron Shumate and Ed Riner. Elliott Cooper has been named sports edi tor. Anthony Wolff is now serving as j review editor. The new feature edi tor is Mary Alice Rowlette, who was appointed by former Editor Curtis Gans last week. Other staff members who have been working this year are the fol lowing: Walker Blanton, business manager; Anne Frye, news editor; Fred Katzin, advertising manager; Lee Arbogast, assistant advertising manager; Bob Walker, circulation manager; Avery Thomas, subscrip tion manager, and Bill Brinkhous and Peter Ness, photographers. ministration foreign policy, a pot he has filled for six years. The 'White House announced after Eisenhower's visit to the hospital that Dulles would remain there for some days for additional medical ob servation and new treatment. In yesterday's sudden announce ment about Dulles return, nothing was said about his need to undergo new treatment. He underwent four weeks of intensive radiation and also received a radioactive gold injection before leaving for Florida. Eisenhower went directly to the hospital after he interrupted his Au gusta, Ga., golfing vacation for a quick visit to the capital. The break in the vacation had been planned previously. The White House said the two men talked alone most of the time about Dulles' health as well as "matters relating to world affairs." On leaving, Eisenhower told news men his ailing secretary looked "fine." No Resignation James C. Hagerty, White House press secretary, emphasized to a news conference that Dulles has not resigned, despite some recurring ru mors that he has decided to quit. "I can say there has been no res ignation submitted," Hagerty said. "Pending additional medical eval uation there will be no further state ment from the president." Associates who know about Dulles condition reported he was feeling somewhat weak and uncomfortable. They said his spirits were high, how ever, and that the secretary was even joking about the speculation over his future. Dressed in a maroon bathrobe, Dulles walked down the hall from his hospital suite with the President. The two shook hands at the end of the corridor arid said goodby. His doctors were reported ready to begin a new series of treatments in a few days. Hagerty said, how ever, he did not know whether the treatment would be more radiation, or surgery. After physicians discovered his cancer Feb. 13, doctors said no fur ther surgery was contemplated. He had undergone surgery for cancer in 1956. G. M. SLATE INFIRMARY HENRY S.
