Disk Jockey Faces Questioning WASHINGTON (AP) House investigators have ordered tele vision disc jockey Dick Clark to appear for questioning at payola hearings tentatively set to begin April 21. Clark, repeatedly has denied accepting Payola undercover payments to plug records or other products. However, Rep. John B.

The day-long festivities offi cially welcoming the Univac 1105 and its Computation Cen ter into the University began at 10:3C a.m. with a series of dem onstrations and tours, which continued throughout the day. At the 2 p.m. dedicatory exer cises, which were held in con junction with the Carolina Sym posium. Dr. P.urgess emphasized the efficiency that the Univac machine has afforded in tabulat ing the census. "Our plans for the 1960 census include the fastest1 publication and compilation of data than ever before." Carolina's Univac will be used to tabulate census data for the entire Southeast. Schacnkel, who represented Remington Rand, builders of the HMon "brain," expressed his de light that the computer is in use here. He especially cited its applica tions in science, engineering and business. He termed it especially useful in training businessmen because of increasing applications in this field. The Univac can be used in "many fields of endeavor," it was pointed out. "We are confi dent that the Computation Cen ter of the University . . . will make significant contributions to the nation, and to industry, business and agriculture in the South." In addition to the main ad dresses, three Symposiam sessions were held at 4 p.m. featuring Uni versity personnel and guests Hy SUSAN I.IAMS and HENRY MAY Kit The citation o-f budget bulanc i..g as a regressive trait in Amer ica, and a panel discussion punc tuated by violent reaction from the small audience, were the highlights of last night's Carolina Symposium session on "The Im age of Man in the State." Th? princ;!al speaker, former trustbuster Ihurman W. Arnold, stated at the outset of the meet ing that he wculd be forced to depart from the original pro position, and discussed instead the "fetish of budget balanc ing" and anti-trust laws as sym bols of American economy and government. Usoig America's 'open sewer," the Potomac River, as a symbol of balancing the budget, Arnold said America was "too poor" to clean up the river. "If we did," he said, "it would tend to unbal ance our budget ... the idea would spread like wild fire . . . people would demand other health measures." He said the only kind of eco nomic theory which moulds poli tical action is "a religion and not a science." Adjusting to the industrial re volution of thi.s century cannot, be accomplished by "that kirxl of precise thinking which we call scientific," Arnold told, but by a "spiritual change which gives confidence that our liberties will not be lost aad cvur economy will not become bankrupt by encour aging the fullest possible produc tion." 'It js in Germany that a mid dle way has been found," Arn old said in speaking of Ger many's steps in abolishing price control, encouraging com petition and increasing German productivity. Germany's competitive econom ic philosophy to increase produc tion and stabilize currency is es sentially America's philosophy Arnold said. The difference is rn practice," he noted. America uses 'hi., philosophy as a ritual." 'Turning to the Sherman Anti trust Act, Ariu.ld told of the two opp;-sit:g economic ideals in America since the Civil War: 1. The ShennanisLs, who believe that government is not to control or rcgair.tc but just to maintain iueJorn in the market and whose hero is Homy Ford; and 2. The worshippers of J. P. Morgan, who believe business management will be fair and qua!, especially to the investor. Going into a long and involv ed history of the antitrust laws, Arnold alternately praised Sher man and the two Roisevelts and slapped Morgan, Oliver Wendell Holmes and Harvard intellectuals. The twe principal evils Arnold saw in concentrated economic power in a democracy were the po.ver of concentrated industry to charge administered process rather than those based on com petitive demand and the tenden cy of modern industrial empires to swallow up local businesses and drain away local capital. In the panel discussion which followed the main address objec tions were raised to Arnold's theory of inflation by Dr. Paul M. Sweey. who was substituting ivp Mbs Helen Fuller. Other panelists, who partici pated in flic verbal free-for-all. were Dean H iry P. Brandis of the UN'C Law School and Rep. William II. Ayres (Pt-Ohio), who arrived just as the discussion be gun due to a delay in plane con nections. In questioning Arncl d's theory, Swcey asked if we could expect less inflation with an unbalanced budget. Swcczy stat ed that the fear of inflation is well-founded because it is kept in, line only through a policy of continuous stagnation." He also said that the Sherman Anti Trust Law was no remedy fcr this cond tion. Rep. Ayres prefaced his re marks by expressing the opinion Pittsburgh Group To Symphony Play Here By BLAKE GREEN Acclaimed by the critics in such phrases as "overwhelming vital ity," "precise and impressive," and "magnificent interpretation," from computation centers at other William Steinberg will direct the institutions. 7 UNC Coeds Vie For Local Beauty Title The Miss Chapel Hill Beauty Pageant will be held at the Chap el Hill High School Auditorium at 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 5.

Conductor in the world famous opera houses of Prague, Frank furt, Berlin and Cologne, Stein berg later was co-founder of the Israeli Philharmonic in Palestine. There he met Arturo Toscanini who invited him to America to become Associate Conductor of the newly formed NBC Symphony. Leaving the NBC organization, Steinberg moved to the BuffalJ Philharmonic Orchestra. In 1952 he was summoned to take over the Pittsburgh Symphony Or chestra. In 1958 the famed conductor -jtf .. . i 'if 4 i ' Hv. - 35 1 -V?;;;. 1 . ;.vv- that it is fortunate for this coun try. Mr. Sweezy, that men with your philosophic view have not been e'ected to Congress." He al so informed the main speaker that the presnt conditions were evident long before the present administration came into power. He ported out that we can nc1. criticize the system which has made America the greatest country in the world." Ayres stated that labor and manage ment working together have made us strong," and expressed the hope that students will avail themselves of the opportunity af forded them in the free enterprise system, since only individual in centive" will preserve our coun try. Dean Brandis likened the views of Arnold and Sweezy to limbs on a tree, saying that Ayres was trying to saw them both down. Dr. Brandis indicated his gen eral agreement with Judge Arn old's views, but asked for an ex planation of the benefits of an un balanced budget. In explaining these benefits Arn old pointed out that if production were encouraged, revenue would increase, and the budgt would be balanced to a higher level. In rebuttal to Sweczy's remarks, Arnold declared that no society has ever existed in which we can ehoote between socialism and capitalism." Sweezy stated that economic planning will play a greater role in our society, since the system of the big corporation doesn't work very well," citing William II . Whyte's Symposium address as evidence of this. By this time the audience had entered into the spirit of the dicussion and, from students to elderly ladies, alternately hissed and cheered the speak ers. After sparring with Dean Bran dis on the relative merits of their respective parties. Rep. Ayres stated that a man, facing the electorate, and not a group of college students, realizes that the people do not want any more burdens," which undoubtedly will result if the government is to provide more services. In rebuttal to Ayres charge, Arnold pointed out that if Amer ica had not followed a policy of deterred inflation," it would have been easier to provide public services, such as schools and old age benefits.

Cogley Symposium Authority By MARY STEWART BAKER If any one person is well equip ped to give a wide perspective of the - Carolina Symposium in action, he is John Cogley, moderator for the entire week's program and final speaker Friday night. Since Cogley's arrival Sunday he . has been occupied with all phases ; readin2 all over the West Coast. TODAY'S SCHEDULE 2 p.m. Panel discussion on "The Eastern Concept of Man" with James H.

Music Director Philadelphia. Chicago, Frankfurt. Lucern, Berlin, Florence, Los An geles, Cologne, and Boston. Sparked by a 'unique plan to bring classical music to towns with populations of less than 20,- 000, the Symphony has plaved accepted an identical post with more than twenty-five concerts to the London Philharmonic Orches tra, thus becoming the music di rector of tw;o major symphony or chestras on opposite sides of the Atlantic. In addition to his dual role, Steinberg also conducts many other of the world's greatest or chestras. In recent seasons he has thousands of people. "The people of the smaller towns want good music very bad ly and they're getting it right in their own auditoriums where it should be," said John S. Edwards, Symphony manager. "Without this plan, however, the idea of a ma jor symphony orchestra would be appeared in Paris, Rome, London, virtually impossible. Israli Officer To Speak For Jewish Appeal Lt. Col. Mordecai Bar-on, career officer in the Israeli Army, mili tary historian,' student of political science and economics, will speak at Hillel House, Sunday at 6 p.m. at a buffet supper being held in his honor. He will be speaking in behalf of the United Jewish Appeal. Col. Bar-on, who haspent his whole life in Israel's defense forces and was severely wounded during the War of Liberation, is on leave to attend the Columbia School of International Affairs. A brilliant military historian, he wrote the official army his tory of the War of Liberation and a history of the Sinai cam paign in which he served. of the Symposium. This includes appearances in various classrooms during the morning, dinner in sor ority and fraternity houses at night and other general occupations con cerning the theme and its compli cations. ,IIis afternoons are usually free, giv'ng him time to mull over the nightly lectures in order to pre sent the final lecture in which he will draw together some of the major points of th addresses and their implications. Cogley feels that one of the most valuable aspects of the Symposium are discussion groups of any type. The speeches," he said, give on ly suggestions. The real value, how ever, is chewing over those ideas which have been suggested." Because of the enthusiasm he feels for the seminar type idea, Cogley urged that Symposium or ganizers give consideration to the idea of more discussions in the future programs. He was very impressed with the Intercollegiate Seminar, a group of students from a half dozen Eastern colleges which has been meeting every morning from 9 until 12 n'rtnrb foflev met with the 5TOUD vesterdav and "chewed over" the'the APril 2 dinner meetinS of e iuuilu uisuici vi iiie aX. c. r eci- His most recent publication is a group of his selectd essays entitled "Bird in the Bush." Friday Rexrcth will present "Poe try and Jazz" a reading of his poe try to the "cool Sounds" of Ed Crowe and his ctmbo. Poems scheduled for the 4 p.m. program on the lawn in front of Carroll Hill include "Francis Car co's" and "L'Ombrc." No admis sion will be charged. In case of rain the reading will be held in doors. Ihurman Arnold former United States Attorney General will speak en "Business and Commerce" to night at 8 Gerrard Hall. This address is in conjunction with- the pre-convention program of the Mock Democratic National Con vention. The public is invited. Convention Platform committee delegates and j delegate chairmen are requested to be there. Dean Carmichael Plans Talk To Women's Group Dean Katherine Kennedy Car michael will be guest speaker t FLICKLIST Carolina Theatre "The Seventh :eal" starrrng at 1:21, 2:18, 5:15, 7:12, and 9:09 p.m. Varsity Theatre "Home from the Hill" starting at 1:30, 4:00, 6:30, and 9:00 p.m. Symposium's process thus far. Because of the valuable thought that came forth in this group, Cog ley urged that more students from other colleges be brought in, form ing more than one group in the next Symposium. He also suggested that the discussions not take place immediately after the lecture. This will give the seminar students more tim to think on the messages of the nightly lectures. As were many participants anj listeners, Cogley was surprised to find that the panelists did not parti cipate in a panel discussion at the nightly lectures. This, he said, was their choice. "They came prepared," he ex plained, "after reading copies of the speeches to be delivered for each particular night; they pre ferred speaking individually." Cogley seemed impressed with Chapel Hill and the University of North Carolina - this being his first visit here. However," he said, I seemed to sense a lacking of in tellectual activity in various fields. I am unable to pinpoint the weak ness, but much confidence can be gained from the general student eration of Business and Profes sional Women. Her topic wil be "The Chang ing Outlook of the Business and Professional Woman." Mrs. Bertha Long of W'inston Salem is district director. The meeting will be at the Lex ington Country Club.
