Guard Bill Hits Snag; Final Vofe On Monday RALEIGH, May 1 UP) Legislation preparing the way for National Guardsmen to replace state highway patrolmen in strike-torn Henderson ran into delay Friday after a week of rapid progress. Complaints of hasty action, raised in debate as the House passed the bill on second reading, carried it over to Monday night for a final House vote before it can become law. Under it, Guard troops called out by the governor to help local offi cers preserve law and order, would have the same authority as a sheriff to make arrests. Rep. A. A. Zollicoffer of Vance, whose county includes Henderson, said the measure would "do no more than allow the Guard to replace the state highway patrol" on duty at the struck plants of the Harriet-. Henderson Cotton Mills. Sporadic violence has flared in re cent months as the company re sumed operation in an effort to over come the five and a half-month-old strike by the Textile Workers Union of America. "I do not know if the Guard will be sent in," emphasized Zollicoffer. "I know it is under consideration." Rep. Hubert Humphrey of Guil ford, a leader in stalling the meas ure, pictured it as full of dangers and likely a violation of the State Constitution. However, he pinned his major arguments on "the hasty procedure" in rushing the bill along its legislative course. "Various senators have told me they have serious misgivings" over Uip Senate's speedy action, Hum phrey said. It passed the Senate un der suspended rules Tuesday morn ing, he recalled, less than 24 hours after its introduction by Sen. Char les Blackburn of Vance. Despite the tense Henderson si tuation, Humphrey asserted, "We cannot pass major legislation on a panic basis." Most House members who joined Humphrey in asking for delay said they did so in order to study the bill. Supporters pointed out that under present law. Guardsmen have ar rest powers only when called to duty under martial law. They said the measure would per mit the use of Guard troop in a situation less serious than one re quiring martial law. Parents Have A Tree Run7 Of AN Dorms Students have been reminded that parents and visitors will have "free run" of the dormitories, fraternities and sororities between the hours of 2 and 4 p.m. Sunday. "We encourage the students to keep their own rooms, their social rooms and the dormitory halls in a 1 reat condition during the day," said Alpha Phi Omega President Randel Etheridge. Other friends of the University, besides parents, have been invited also. The members of the State Legislature have been asked to at tend in a body. They will meet at the Morehead Sundial upon arrival. The high point of the afternoon will be a faculty reception under Davie Poplar at 3:30. APO, the spensoring organization, will serve rtfreshments at this time and the UNC Glee Club will present a con cert. At 4:30 Vice President William D. Carmichael will give a short speech followred by a band concert under the direction of Herbert Fred, UNC band director. i. t JOr X' 1 ill K J.. wtf - V3, API- J I a if if f v - s 1 J - -r :: ) -j Vs. til it ( 1 7 HELD OVER Mary Margaret Brown is held over Al Miller's head to indicate that Sound and Fury's production of "Oh, Hellas!" will be held over through Sunday night.

UMMMMM That's what one of or both these two are no doubt thinking in the midst of the situation at hand. The two lucky people (depending on how you look at it) are Robert Ketler (he's the tall one) and Sally Pullen (I), and they are (supposedly) enacting a scene from the Carolina Playmakers fditlicomlng "Inherit the Wind' which will appear in the Forest Theatre, May 7-9 at 8:30 p.m. Carolina Playmakers forthcoming "Inherit the Wind," scheduled for piesentation in The Forest Theatre. May 7-9 at 8:30 p.m. "Inherit the Wind" tells the story of the famous Tennessee "Monkey Tiial" in which Clarence Darrow appeared for the defense.

Ketler is familiar to local audiences for his roles in "The Would-Be Gentleman," Victory Village Housing Prohl em Receives Releif By BOB WRIGHT The married students' housing shortage will receive some relief beginning next fall.

Bennett, superintendent of University buildings and grounds, said that about half of the 32-build-ir.g project will be completed in December, and the remainder by March 19G0. Rent for unfurnished apartments has been set at $60 per month for the 3-room (one bedroom) apart ments and $70 for the 4-room (two bedroom) apartments. Heat and water are included in the rent, but not electricity. The buildings will ,be of a brick veneer, permanent-type structure and completely fireproof.

He said that about $40 of every $60 re ceived in rent would be used for re-paying the loan. The completion of the housing project may not entirely eliminate the housing shortage. Twelve bar racks, containing 96 apartments, in Victory Village have been con demned and may have to be torn down, Bennett said.
