Uproariously, jubilant students who led the unarmed revolt against the founder of the South Korean Republic now called for public calm to permit an orderly transition from Autocracy to Democracy. A tumultuous 26 hours of steady rioting and demonstrations ended at curfew time last night with more than 100.000 Koreans crowding the streets oi this capital to celebrate whaf they ob viously regarded as an historic political victory. It was agreed that a caretaker government, possibly to be headed by independent, 62-year-old Huh Chung, must take over and elections must be called within three months. The national assembly, backed by the students, demanded that Khee resign immediately. Its resolution was adopted yester day by the 140 members who showed up. It has 231 members. Humphrey Lashes Out At Wealth KEYSER, W. Va. (AP Sen Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn) bitterly lashed out at the advantages he says wealth gives to Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass). "I can't afford to run through this state," he said at tne point, "with a little black bag and a checkbook." Usually Kennedy and Humphrey handle each other so gin gerly "I like Jack," or "I'm fond of Hubert," that their impor tant Democratic presidential primary date here sometimes seems like twcedlee-dum vs. Weedlee-dee. Hut today Humphrey kept returning to his favorite theme: that he's a poor man, that he's running a poor man's campaign, and what chance has he against the Kennedy millions? Crash Into Moon Planned WASHINGTON CAP) The Civilian Space Agency Tuesday unveiled plans to smash a 500 pound spacecraft on the moon at more than 5.000 miles an hour, its television cameras taking pic tures to the very last.

S. effort to place something useful on the moon is scheduled within the next two years, at a cost of $10 million. Hodges Gives 'Alert' Briefing RALEIGH (AP) Gov. Hodges told a group of civil defense officals Tuesday "The possibility of a very real war is not as remote as many of us would like to think." "It could happen today, or tomorrow or the next day or never," Hodges declared. "But the possibility is there, and it is a possibility so terrifying that we must not, we cannot, relax." Hodges scored "Public indifference to the need for a stronger civil defense organization." More than 100 federal, state and local officials attended the briefing on "operation alert I960" which will be held May 3-5. The exercise will test the readiness of the civil defence in an emergency.

This scholarship, annually g',v- : t n by the IFC, i.s awarded to one j around fraternity will be present- who has demonstrated oulstand-1 ed at the next meeting by Chan ing academic ability, who is ofjcellor Emeritus House. i strong character, and who is in need of a scholarship. Due to innumerable incidents involving the misuse of firearms the IFC has passed a regulation requiring all fraternities to be responsible for locking up to gether firearms. Jim Noyes, IFC Secretary, re 2 ; ported the highlights of his trip 4 to the Southeastern Interfratern- ity Conference at the University of Alabama April 8-9. Noyes said, "Although it was evident at the Conference that our IFC is one of t,u strongest in the South, we need to improve fraternity-community and fraternity-administration relations. "Too many people are unin- ! formed as to what our functions nd' intentions are." Noyes sut gested in regard to this problem I inai ine ir l. worK closer wnn uif i Faculty Committee on fraternities and sororities and that community leaders be invited to fr.aternity houses so that they might be more familiar with the intrinsic values of fraternity life. Since some IFC members have been delinquent in attending meetings and have overused the "alternate system", discussion was held in an attempt to alleviate- this problem. W'alker Blanton moved that each fraternity be fined $25 each time one of its members missed more than two IFC meetings a se mester.

Randall has petitioned the Student Legislature to reject Student Bod President Dav Oiigg's re-appointment of Baynes to the position. id Meeting in a secret session last week, the legislature he:;;d a complete teport of the incident, which arose during the campus genet al elect ion March '22. would be liiore practical to let the executive committee look in to the problem more thoroughly before deciding. President Austin announced that, providing a!l intramural events are completed, the It. B. House trophy fur the best all- Norton Tennille, IFC member, announced that he is "sincerely thankful for your financial sup port which helped make it pos sible for me to participate in the panel discussion in California on superior students."

SUSAN LEWIS and HENRY MAYER on the measure at its meeting Thursday night. In the ease, a friend of Baynes' was found to have asked Randall, who was keening the polls for a Dorm election, to let him re-mark a ballot he had already cast. Randall allowed this. At the same time an other frieiid of Baynes' was found to have voted thrice. Later that night, Baynes sum moned Randall to his room to dis cuss the case. In Randall's official statement to Grigg, he said, "Baynes informed me that he had a personal interest in the case and that he intended to direct any investigation personally." Baynes then asked Randall if he had opened the ballot box and upon receiving an affirmative answer, further queried if he thought that action to be a serious matter. Randall replied that he had not opened the box with the Litention of ' influencing the election and was not aware of any law he might have I violated. Randall charged that during the ensuing heated discussion Baynes threatened him with Student Council prosecution and full investigation by Lhe Attorney General's Staff. Alter the discussion, Randall conferred with Otto Funderburk and Roger Fcushee t'.. determine if the Student Council could leg itimately prosecute. "Funderburk and Foushee each confirmed that to their knowledge I had violated no law avid was not in danger of any legitimate action by the Student Council," Randall stated. "I believe that Bob Baynes has allowed his personal friendship with an accused person to sway his judgement and that these threats and abuses constitute misfeasavice in office," Randall charged. Concluding his statement, Randall asked that the Student Legislature deny Baynes' re-appointment. In a personal letter to Grigg an swering Randall's charges, Baynes pointed out that "I am in com plete agreement with Randall con cerning the facts leading up to the defendant's being questioned." Baynes explained that in this case, as in all other cases, he was in no. way competed with it as investigator, defense counsel, char acter witness or as any official of the Council. "I direct all investigations," Bay-; not believe that I have misused the nes said, "only to the extent that I i powers of my o.Tice. I acted erring am ultimately responsible for thejly. but privately; too quickly, but nu ilirv and Lhurouhness of the I oince: ely." - j " work of my staff members." Baynes stated that his sole reason for speaking with Randall was ls feeling that "since I am acquainted with the judicial system here, 1 owed it to my friend to do 'whatever I could in an unofficial way for him." "I was NOT acting officially, but as a personal friend of the defend ant," Baynes continued. Baynes stated that he was con cerned with Randall's opening the ballot box, "not as Attorney Gen eral, but as a resident of the dorm." "Although I am convinced that his actions were not motivated by any desire to affect the outcome of the election," Baynes said, "I felt that it was an i '.discretion on Ran dall's part and that I was within my rights to offer a constructive criticism." Baynes countered that he was in no way trying to "intimidate, im plicate or coerce" Randall. "As I explained to him later," Baynes said "in my mind I had completely divorced the case from his opening the ballot box and that " " 1 V .- BOB BAYNES f .7 1 JOHN' RANDALL .his constituted no violation on his part." Explaining that tempers flared on both sides and he could not remem ber his own exaqt words, Baynes denied that he had threatened Ran dall with prosecution. "I was trying to make Randall see that this case would have to be 'hashed out' before the appropriate council avid that he would have to appear." Baynes said that he was attempt ing to explain to Randall that a trial was necessary and Randall's role in the case wsa irrelevant to their present discussion. Believing that the situation was precipitated by "poor choices of words and errors in judgement," Baynes declared that "I am cer tainly willing to accept the lion's share of the blame."
