Of Toronto Disassociates Fraternities By EDWARD NEAL RINER The University of Toronto has disassociated itself from the 30 fraternities and eight sororities on its campus. Wednesday's announcement came from the Caput (senior dis ciplinary body of the university composed of the president, prin cipal of University College, fleads of federated universities and col leges, and deans) which indirectly gave its reason as discrimination. Dr. Claude T. Bissell, univer sity president, in a statement is sued Oct. 24, 1959, said: "Any act of discrimination based upon race, religion or color strikes at the very heart of the life of the Uni versity of Toronto . . . discrimin ation is by no means as clear cut as people think. It is clear cut as far the university is concerned, but is is open to all sorts of dis tinctions Alien it happens out side." Volunteers For Hewlett Open Today Today is the formal opening of state headquarters for the Volun teers for Hewlett organization formed in Chapel Hill last weck by Dewey Sheffield and Robert Pace. The headquarters occupies three offices in the University National Bank Building on Franklin Street. The purpose of the organization as stated by the co-chairmen is to promote the election of State House Speaker Addison Hewlett in his candidacy for the U. S. Sen ate. Hewlett is running against Bob Gregory, an attorney from Greens boro, and B. Everett Jordan, the present junior senator from North Carolina who was appointed two years ago by Gov. Luther Hodges to fill the position made vacant by the death of Senator Kerr Scott. Co-chairman Pace stated: "Since the organization of Volunteers for Hewlett, public response has been widespread." Sheffield and Pace made a swing through 10 counties last week and expressed satisfac tion with what they had seen. Sheffield stated Saturday that five North Carolina colleges have been contacted and that "we will cover all 100 counties within the next month. A gToup of Volunteers were pre sent at Saturday's Jefferson-Jackson Day Dinner in Raleigh, shak ing hands and talking up support for their candidate.

Bingham Resign Of Student Body J By Street; Spain The new policy on Greek letter organizations calls for action to stop "erroneous belief that frater nities have any official position in or relationship to the Univer sity of Toronto." No fraternity or sorority may use the name of the university on notepaper nor may any university publication make reference to fra ternities and sororities. The clubs will no longer get reduced adver tising rates in these publications. Previously fraternities and sorori ties paid $16 for an ad in the yearbok as compared to $150 for outsiders. The university president said it does not intend to dictate to fra ternities, but individual action against the interest of the univer sity or academic welfare of the student will be handled by dis ciplinary action of the Caput. President Bissell continued by saying the Caput was in position "to say, if we wish, that he (a stu dent) is quite free to belong to a fraternity, but if he does belong, he can't stay in the university. Opinion of the university's new policy varied among fraternity presidents. Some said fraternities had always been disassociated from the university and the uni versity could not shape the poli cies of fraternities. Of the 30 fraternities affected, 11 have chapters on the UNC campus: Beta Theta Pi, Delta Up silon, Kappa Alpha Society, Kappa Sigma, Lambda Chi Alpha, Phi Delta Theta, Phi Gamma Delta, Pi Lambda Phi, Sigma Chi, Sigma Nu and Zeta Psi. Half of the eight sororities have chapters at Carolina: Alpha Gam ma Delta, Delta Delta Delta, Kap pa Kappa Gamma and Pi Beta Phi.

Memorial s As Treasurer Spain's Replacement Will Be Announced In Next Few Days By HENRY MAYER Student body Treasurer Bob Bingham and Attorney - General Jack Spain have both resigned from their positions, effective im mediately. President Charlie Gray an nounced that Gordon Street will fill out Bingham's unexpired term as treasurer. No replace ment has been announced for the attorney-general position. "It is unfortunate that Bob will be unablq to finish his term," Charlie Gray commented upon learning of the resignation. " have enjoyed working with hirr this past year. He has added a;: invaluable service to the execu tive branch of the student gov ernment. Bob has laid a much needed foundation for the year round budget committee and has helped student government to a sound financial year." Bingham will be replaced by Gordon Street, who served in the student legislature for the past three years. He is floor leader of the UP and has been chairman, of the finance committee for the past two years. In announcing Street's appoint ment, Gray called him "the most qualified replacement for Bingham. Although this appointment will ne cessitate Gordon's resigning from, the legislature, I feel that he can serve the school better as treas urer." Spain, who has been attorney general since 1958, resigned due t the fact that he is reading for hon ors in history and must complete the requirements within the next two months. Therefore, he is resign ing from all activities in order to devote time to his academic work. Gray noted that Spain has done an "outstanding job as attorney general, especially considering the complications that have occurred in our honor system. I regret that he is resigning and firmly believe that he has left a strong enough founda tion so that the transition will not be too difficult." Last Lecturer Cites Need For Creativity By HENRY MAYER 'We must undergo an academic ! renaissance if we are to share in the next chapter Of the advance ment of learning," Dr. George V. Taylor, associate professor of his tory, told a small, but enthusiastic audience at last night's last Lec ture Series presentation in Memor ial Hall. "In order to keep up with the advances being made elsewhere, we I must develop in our educational sys tem, at all levels, a type of think ing which is both rigorous and criti cal on one hand and marvelously receptive and imaginative on the other," Dr. Taylor stated. Instead of dwelling in oversimpli fications, the speaker urged that we shed our "primitive reluctance to stretch our intelligence in order to understand complex realities and uncertainties." Placed in the hypothetical situ ation of delivering what he knew would be the last lecture before his death, Dr. Taylor chose to talk about uncertainty, "because it is the most fundamental, intellectual and moral problem of our time." Dr. Taylor went on to explain that uncertainty robs us of the abil ity , to make important assertions. "We can be sure of small and ptt ty details, but not of the patterns we think we see in them."

"The history we know in our minds," he declared, "is the rec orded part of the remembered part of the observed part of what hap pened." Because of this, no historian can assert with full confidence the precise cause of a given historical event. The social scientist is not able to quantitatively ve.ity h:s assump tions, as the physical scientist ordinarily can. However, Dr. Tay lor pointed out that now scientists have invented equipment which re veals segments of reality that New tonian physics cannot describe. The physical scientist then relies on the "uncertainty principle," which Dr. Taylor defined as "the giving up of certainty in favor of probability." In order to under stand realities, the scientist must "strain his imagination and depart from the realities of daily expeii ence and accept as postulates, id-as which are absurd." Therefore, tha world must adopt in all the sciences "the free and creative approach which is mini'u! of the simple and ci moves cioi'y in -tht: realm of the complex and absurd." n r S I
