Student government here at Carolina is
a fine old ' tradition. The independence of
Carolina student government is something of
which we can all be proud. Student autonomy
is something that is absolutely essential if
student government is to maintain its place
of importance and continue the service and
progress toward a better Univesrity atmos
phere a better, fuller, and more meaning
ful Carolina Way
An Important Innovation

our I'tiiveisitv is tooB hlinded hv

However, student government is more,
much more, than a tradition. Student govern
ment is part of an education. Students are
given a chance to vork and take part in
activities which are important. But it is not
plav. Every mistake is a real one. Any or
ganization which annually handles S125.00'o
is important for that reason alone, if for no
other. Mistakes cost money; they are real;
they are part ol our preparation for daily
living.
Student government represents the stu
dents. This also makes it important. It is
important that students' money be spent as
they want it to be spent. It is important that
we speak for the rights, and represent the
opinions, of our student body. We must never
forget who elected us: we must be represen
tative. At the same time, however, we must
be able to combine with this obligation of rep
resentation cur own good .,a ".gment. By vir
tue of our view of the situation, we may sec
things somewhat differently from athers. We
must be able to distinguish between our own
prejudices and what we honestly believe h
best for the student and student government.
In other words, we must lie represent a'ivo
but we must he willing to stand for what we
believe.
As I have pointed out. student government
is educational, and it is a means through
which the students of this university mav
have their voices heard. These are indeed
important
However. I am convinced that the primary
function of student government is to serve
the immediate and everyday needs of the
Carolina student here in Chanel Hill. This
must be. and will be. my primary concern.
Student government must have the respect
and confidence of the student. Only in this
way can it ever fulfill its potential.
It is impossible to view ahead of time all
of the problems and opportunities student
government will meet in the laming yea'-.
Many of them. I am sure, are unforeseen.
One thing is for sure, we will make mistakes.
But we must be willing to go out on a limb;
we must be willing to take a chance, to start
something new. This will require courage and
hard work on the part of all of us. Rut i!
is essential. How else can student government
progress? How else can student government
accomplish its purpose?
However, there are a number of problems
and projects that we can already sec. If I
may, I would like to discuss some of them
with you.
The number one project student govern
ment will have in the coming year is work
ing for a new student union. It isn't necessary
for me to point out the lack of social, recre
ational, and study facilities on this campus
with particular reference to our dormitories.
Also, very evident is the inadequacy of Gra
ham Memorial, our present student union.
Work lias already begun in organizing a stu
dent committee, or department perhaps I
should say, which will cooperate with-the
faculty and administration in working for the
union and the other budget requests. Student
Government will operate an extensive lobby
ing campaign during the next year. This work
will require the interes; and work of a large
number of students if it is to be successful.
I encourage every Carolina student to tak"
an active part in this program.
Actually, there are countless problems
which dormitory men and women face. And
since over half of our entire student body
lives in dormitories. Student Government
must aim a major part of its efforts in their
direction.
Installation of automatic washers and
dryers in men's dormitories is due to begin
in the near future. This is good. Au'd it is
important that Student Government does
everything it can to make life here at Caro
lina as inexpensive as possible. I intend lo
work for the installation of these washers
and dryers until every dormitory student has
these services readily accessible.
In addition, I shall be alert to every op
portunity to convert dormitory basements, cv
other space, into additional social or study
facili.ies. W'v must be aware of these oppor
tunities when they arise and be quick to hav
our ideas and suggestions known to the
ministration.
Most of the work for bettering dormitory
life and conditions must be done through the
IDC, the WPvC and the CWC. I shall give
them my wholehearted support because their
progress and growth in function and scope
are essential. I shall support them in every '
feasible and practical way.
Through the Campus Affairs Board and
the Academic Affairs Board. I wish to con
tinue and expand study and investigation of
many student problems.
Through the International Students'
Board. I hope to increase the interest among
our students in international affairs. Also. I
hope to provide means through which we
can better use the resources we have among
our foreign students here on campus.
Student Government must give attention
to our fraternal organizations. There are at
least two major problems now facing frater
nities. First the academic regulations which
were placed on fraternities last year. It is
my hope that, through the faculty and ad
ministration, the IPC, and Student Govern
ment, we will be able to obtain a relaxation
of those rules. Second the question of fra
ternity zoning. Several fraternities are un
able to build or -expand houses because of
Chapel Hill zoning laws. It is my hope that
we will be able to reach a solution acceptable
to all concerned. While sororities and fra
ternities make up only about one-fourth to
one-third of our University population, they
are an integral part of campus life. They,
t'.o, will have my support in the coming yea
Our Honor System is the most fundament
al part of our student government and camp
us life. I am convinced it is the best system,
and that it can only be run by the students
themselves. Our student Honor System must
be preserved. We must have a system first
of all that gives justice and a fair trial i
defendants. At the same time, it must have
Hie respect and confidence of the students.
In addition, not to be overlooked is the
faculty. I am sure it is quite evident that our
Honor System cannot work without the com
plete cooperation of the faculty and admin
istration. Our Honor System m ist be some
thing we as students can respect, and it must
be something the faculty will a'cept. Student-faculty
cooperation is a mu.;t.
1 can say two things in relation to our
Honor System. First. I will never fa r any
system that the students of this Univers'ty
cannot accept anil respect. Second, so p.ng
as I am President of the Student Body. I
will do everything in my power to carry i ut
the provisions of the Student Constitution
ad- .of the University of North Carolina and the
jacts passed in pursuance thereof. Of that you
can be assured.
t It is my hope that we will have a success
ful year in all phases of student government.
We will need the help of many interested stu
dents. I urge all of the students of the Uni
versity to take an active part in student, gov
ernment. I hope that each student will rea
lize that hi can take a part in student gov
ernment. I hope that every interested person
vvi 1 come by to talk with me in the-coming
vi eks.
To have a successful year in student gov
ernment we must have cooperation.
It is essential that we have the closest
cooperation and a true spirit of working to
gether between the legislative and executive
branches of student government. It is true
that these two branches are separate in our
form of government. As a safeguard, this
is good. However, this doss not mean that
we cannot work together. It does not mean
that we do not have the same high goals
in mind. This is not a government of political
parties, nor is it a government of the legis
lative or executive alone. Rather, it is a gov
ernment of, by, and for the students of the
University of North Carolina. Harmony, and
not skepticism, must prevail if student gov
ernment is to achieve the utmost in the year
to come.
Let me invite each of you as the repre
sentative of your constituents to take an ac
tive part in the Student Legislature. But more
than that, "let me urge you to take an inter
est in all of student , activity. Familiarize
yourselves with the Judicial branch. Talk
with your constituents about it; talk to those
students who are most closely connected w:ith
its operation; and, lastly, talk to the faculty
about it. They will be pleased and much im
pressed if you will take but a few minutes
to listen to their ideas. Only by doing these
things can you understand and intelligently
consider our Honor System which is in your
hands. The Legislature, not the Honor Coun
cil, controls our Honor System. Never forget
your responsibility.
As lor the executive, I intend to take an
active interest in the Legislature and cooper
ate with you in every way possible. I hope
that, when questions arise in your minds,
you will not hesitate to come and talk with
me about them. I will be happy if you will
come. I assure you that I shall do the same.
In closing, let me wish each of you and
all of student government the best in your
endeavors this year. I challenge you to make
this the best year in the long history of Car
olina student government.

Symposium Talk
A friends of mine and I were discussing the
Symposium last Tuesday night. He had missed Gen
eral Gavins's and Dr. Holtcn's talk and asked me
what their topics were.
I told him that Gavin had talked of the need
for the social sciences to catch up with the phy
sical ones, of the desperate necessity of bringing
science under man's control, and of the individual's
need to search for the answers to the important
questions within" himself rather than to accept
solutions of others.
At this, my friend interrupted: "These speak
ers always talk about the same thing. Everyone of
them says that man has to control science and
that we have to be individuals and not conform
ists." I did not take issue with the point at the time.
Later, however, after thinking of the matter, I
realized that the very nature of man's problems
requires the repitition of which my friends com
plained. It is virtually a truism that the basic, essential
problems of mankind remain the same through the
centuries, no matter how radically the outward as
pects of civilization may change. Logically, it fol
lows that though the outward manifestations of
those problems may differ, the solutions, whatever
they may be, remain the same.
The "eggheads" of each succeeding age have
recognized this fact, and because of the realization
of it they have attempted to hammer the point
home to others, to make everyone consciously a
ware of the difficulties of man's relations with his
fellow man.
The quest for knowledge, individual search for
solutions to the important problems, and an aware
ness of and concern for the legacy which this age
will bequeath the next these must be realized
and acted upon or we will reach the ironic posi
tion of being destroyed by the very institutions
th".t were created for our well being.
Wednesday night in a symposium panel discuss
ion on the St3tc, Representative William Ayres (R
Obio) made the statement that he did not believe
that we should criticize the economic system "that
h; s made America the greatest, country in the
world."

This remark was greeted by hisses, laughter,
and an assortment of snickers. From the remarks
heard after the discussion, the audience evidently
U ok the statement to be nothing more than a
partisan political mouthing of platitudes.
I grant that Congressmen are sometimes given
to make flowery talks, especially if their party
is pretty well in control, and no one would deny
anyone the right to criticize any aspect of Ameri
can life. But I believe that the juvenile audience
response was indicative of something deeper than
just ridicule of a party mouthpiece, which apparent
ly was what many of the people in the crowd took
Rep. Ayres to be.
It is currently considered bad form for one to
be proud of America. The fashionable thing to
say is that the country is shot to hell and all
washed up. Any show of emotion is looked upon
as poor taste. Any display of a superior intellect
is derided.
Patriotism, feeling for others, and intelligence
these are surely admirable and worthy traits.
not to be looked down upon.
The current reaction to these and other similar
instances is supposedly an indication of sophistica
tion. I believe that it is a sign of shallowness.
Getting back to Rep. Ayres and politicians in
general, it is hard to distinguish sincere expressions
of beliefs from mere rhetoric. Any remarks con
cerning these serious beliefs should in my opinion,
be listened to with thoughtful consideration rather
than cvnical disdain. -

escape into a gilded cage of elegant scenery, fash
ionable clothes, fir-lined mansions and poorly per
formed, but familiar classical music you will in
deed go for "Once More With Feeling," the last
in the colorful career of the late Kay Kendall, and
what should be the last (comedy) for Yul Brynner.
Stanley Donen. producer and director, has at
tempted to put forth the sophisticated comedy
which recently charmed Broadway, but the re
sult is rather corny. Yul Brynner is not meant to
be a comedian; he looks sick next to the vivacious
Kay Kendall.
Screenplay for the movie was penned by Harrv
Kurnitz from his own Broadway stage play. The
story is that of an egomaniac music maestro a
symphony orchestra leader whose passionate love
for his music is equalled only by an abounding
love for himself.
Only his wife understands him until she finds
him "auditioning" a sultry young pianist. She
walks out on him and the rest of the movie is
Brynner's chase after her and his sliding musk
career. Net only does Brynner fail as a comedkm. but
he is overly tempramental in his portrayal of tht
artist. The orchestra conducting scenes are ridicu
lous; he leads Les Preludes with a stroke simil ir
to that of a freestyler. The movie-goer will find
himself chuckling in many unintended spots.
Kay Kendall, although certainly far from her
best, was the brightest element in the movie. It
is unfortunate that talent such as hers was in
vested in "Once More With Feeling" as a final appearance.
