ODOM Special orders were granted last night at the Student Legis lature in order to consider reso lutions to support the fund-raising functions of the 1960 Campus Chest and to welcome Dr. Frank Graham back to UNC on his offi cial visit on Feb. 25. These reso-i lutions were passed with only token dissent. A motion by Rep. Crownover (SP) to adjourn the assembly un til 9:05 to enable the legislators to hear Dr. Graham was defeated. The bill to appropriate $350 to the IDC was passed after motions to table and send it back to com mittee were defeated. Rep. Hank Patterson withdrew his "General Elections Law" bill, stating that any election law had lo be passed 60 days before an election and there is not sufficient time before the spring elections. Also he wished to strike the con troversial article dealing with the judiciary. Special orders were granted for consideration of the bill for geo graphic proportionment of cam pus judiciary districts. An amend ment to give Men's Judicial Dis trict IV five members on the Men's Council, instead of four as the original article called for, was passed after hot debate centering arourkd the lack of sufficient pop ulation in this area to warrant five members.

Every child accepted into the Plan is carefully investigated and is given special help and guidance accord ing to individual need. And the children write letters. The Plan translates them and pro vides photographs and histories of each child, and the foster parcnis i can follow the progress made all through the year. A(ipting a child consists of purely financial help. Many of these children are living with one parent and several brothers and iisters. Frequently, even this one parent cannot work because of TB or another serious illness. But most do have a home. "We must do our part to help these children less fortunate than we," said Nancy Awbrey, co-chairman of the Campus Chest Drive. Duff States Need For New Union Tom Lawsun, a staff member in Angus Duff's campaign for presi dent of the student body, issued the following statement yesterday: 'in his. varied association with campus activities Angus Duff has held positions related to each phase of the five point platform on which he is basing his campaign for pres ident of the student body. One of the basic tenets of this program is the building of a new student union. As this year's president of GMAB, Duff is perhaps more aware than any student of the University's vital need for a strong and progressive student union. He has an immediate understanding of the draw-backs of die present system and of the means by which they can be over come. "The fact that Duff was elected president of the Southeastern Asso ciation of Student ITnions, along with the outstanding work he has clone as president of GMAB, is proof of his devotion to the student un ion concert and his capacity for leadership in the field." Grigg, Norton Give Programs To Dorm Meet Law.son pointed out that Duff ad vocates a library to be combined with a new union to provide a cen tral study area. "He feels that this new building should be located in the northwest corner of Emerson Field. In this j position it would be conveniently ! accessible to all group.-; and would j lend itself to use as a 'between class' stopover. A book store under us own management ano a snacK bar-.soda fountain combination would be included in this plan. Lawson concluded, "In the eyes cf the administraiton, the possibili ties for a new union are good. The proposal is on the top priority list for the next biennium and Chan cellor Aycock has said that he be lieves i'.s chances are good. Duff points out that now is the time for strong student support of this new union. Next year's student body president will be in a position to influence greatly the plans for the union. Upon him will rest the bur den of representing student inter ests. Because of his association with the student union and his en thusiasm for it. Duff is ideally qual ified to carry out the program as president of the student body." Two candidates for Big Four Student Government offices launched their campaigns in the Aycock Dorm meeting Wednesday night. David Grigg, UP candidate for President, and Bill Norton, SP candidate for Vice President, stat ed some of the issues they were particularly hopeful of accomp lishing if elected. Grigg cited the need for better dorm facilities, academically and socially. He also said the top proj ect for student government next year would be the promotion of a new student union building. Giving his views on the Honor System, Grigg said the system must possess three qualities to function properly: student justice, faculty faith in the students and student respect for the faculty. Norton emphasized the stu dents role in university govern ment. He stressed the need for retaining the Honor System wtih complete and equal justice for all concerned. A good plan for improving dorm social life is the building of a student union," he said. The meeting, presided over by Bob Thompson and Bev Tucker also included a discussion of van dalism in dorms and methods for improving the scholastic atmos phere. Phil Edwards Asserts His Independence Phil Edwards, who announced his independent candidacy for the president of the student body last week and who was also endorsed by the Student Party last Monday night, said yesterday that he still considers himself an independent candidate. "My original program has not been changed, and though I was happy to receive the support of the Student Party, I intend to maintain my political independ ence. The problems confronting the University in general and the Student Government in particular are too important to be sacrificed on the altar of partisan politics," Edwards said. Edwards explained that he ac cepted the Student Party endorse- j ment without committing himself in any way. In his words: "I con sider the action of the Student Party to have been an endorse ment of my program. I do not feel that I am obligated to that party any more than to any other party or group. "It is my intention to give con sideration to the problems con fronting the entire University. Ob viously this will entail specific ac tion which will favor specific groups, but all decisions which I make will be based on the better ment of the "entire student body." Edwards also emphatically stat ed that he did not intend to seek the presidency either on the ba sis of promises or vague generali zations. He contended rather that clear definition of particular problems was necessary as a first step of finding solutions. According to Edwards, there are at least thirty specific prob- ems which are of critical impor tance to the student body. He will present these in a later state ment to this paper. Orientation Interviews Will Be Given Interviews for prospective mem bers of the Campus Orientation Committee will be held next week, according to Jack Mitchell, orientation chairman. The interviews will be conduct ed in Roland Parker III from 2 to 5 p.m. next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. "I would like to emphasize the fact," Mitchell said, "that the suc cess of Orientation Weeks hinges upon the planning and execution of the program by the commit tee. i leei mat orientation is one of the most worthwhile activities on campus and I hope that there win oe much enthusiasm con cerning next year's orientation program. ine urientation committee is composed of twenty-two students, 9 women and 13 men.

By JINNY Von SCHILLING The transmission of the American dream to the rest of the world is one of the most important contributions the United States can make to the United Nations and world peace. Dr. Frank Porter Graham told the opening plenary session of the UN Model Assembly last night in Me morial Hall. Speaking informally before a large and appreciative audience, the former University president char acterized this dream as "faith and hope in a world of suspicion and hatred." In tracing the history of our American Republic based on the principles of democracy and equal rights, Dr. Graham stressed , that "we need to make clear to our selves and to the world that our revolutionary faith was not only a past, but a present and living source." If America is to establish itself as a true guide to foreign nations, then she must stand before the UN as a dynamic fusing force toward faith, international co-operation and a long range economic de velopment program against poverty, hurger, disease, and colonialism.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) Two planes carrying 70 persons, in cluding a score of U.S. Navy Band musicians, collided over Guana bara Bay here today and plunged into the sea. Several hours later only three survivors had been re ported. One plane was a four-engine R6D of the U.S. Navy, bringing to Rio a group of Navy bandsmen for an appearance at a dinner President Eisenhower had arrang ed tonight for Brazil's President Juscelino Kubitschek. Flying in from Buenos Aires, it also carried members of a U.S. antisubmarine group which has been in Argen tina trying to run down reports of a mysterious submarine. The other plane was a two-engine commercial craft belonging to Real company. ried 44 persons, including 20 members of the U.S. Navy Band. The others were identified as crew members and men in the an tisubmarine expert group. The crash came as President Eisenhower was appearing at a luncheon in Sao Paulo. He flew back to Rio late today. The crash had cast a tragic tone to his tri umphs in Brazil first in Brasilia, yesterday in Rio and today at Saa Paulo. The crash took place in an ov ercast shortly after 1 p.m. The Embassy said the Navy plane was heading for a landing at Galeao Airport, while the Real plane was heading into Santos Dumont Air port, Rio's busy downtown land ing spot. "At the time of the collision the Navy plane was scheduled to Air Lines, a Brazilian j be at 6,000 feet altitude and the It was coming in from Real plane at 5,000 feet," the Em- more peaceful world. As heirs of all races and the hope of all man kind," Graham named the students as potential organizers of a "more adequate, more effective UN, which must press forward in a definite program for universal disarmament. "We need to replace the ring of fear with a ring of faith and inter national co-operation. As a former Carolina student, teacher, administrator and alum nus, Graham asked for a rededica tion on the part of the students to uphold "equal justice under law and human brotherhood under God." In his most generous introduc tion Chancellor Aycock said of "our University's dearest and noblest son": "Some people have said he has gone too far, but hirdsight tells us he has never gone too far; but sometimes he has gone too far alone."

Records Threatened At least three Carolina individual records are in jeopardy as the bas ketball season enters the twilight stage. York Larese, now hitting 86.0 per cent of his free throws, is nearly a cinch to better the record of 82.9 per cent accuracy set by Tony Radovich in 1956. Ray Stanley has a chance cf topping Lennie Rcsenbluth's field goal percentage of 43.3 set in 1957. Stanley is cur rently hitting 46.2 per cent of his shots. And Lee Shaffer, averaging 10.9 rebounds per game, is near the 117 mark recorded by Rosenbluth in 1955 and by ' Pete Brennan in 1953. er Bearded Monsters?
