Jose Linton Dancing Wree To Students Students will be admitted free .to tonight's perform ance by the Jose Limon Dance Company, scheduled for 8 p.m. in Memorial Hall. Appearing under the auspices of the Chapel Hill Con cert Series, the Limon troupe is currently making a coast-to-coast tour. Famed as "distinguished am bassadors of dance," the ballet group has made three interna tional tours for the President's Special International Program for Cultural Presentations. Its most recent goodwill excursion See Related Picture, page 3 was a three-month tour of Latin America, which was an "unparalleled cultural and ar tistic success." Master Of Dance An acknowledged master in the dance world, Jose Limon founded his company in 1947 and its initial New York ap pearance "made it clear that an artist of depth and perception had entered the dance scene." "Here is a creative choreog rapher with a gift of invention and power of persuasion," The New York Times commented. His four-character interpreta tion of Shakespeare's "Othello," entitled "The Moor's Pavane," has been hailed as a "genuine masterpiece. This work will be a highlight of tonight's program. "There . Is A Time," a work commissioned for Limon by the Juilliard Music Foundation, will also be featured. Where Will Money Come From? Governor lO Submit Budget HIS i ti Tod ay, i jravors lax increase rooosai eecleo. Bond Issue Seems A pparent; Consumer Tax May Go Up .. .. Today at noon Governor Sanf ord's proposed budget for the next two years will be thrown into the judicial jaws of the state legislature. In his budget message to the General Assembly which convened yesterday at noon, the Governor will recom mend appropriations for higher education including the much debated Consolidated Uni versity budget. Most of the 120 members of the House and 50 members of the Senate have indicated they are in favor of Sanford's educa tion program. But the major question is Where will the money come from?" " Gov. Sanford's education pro gram carries a price tag of $106 million. That is more money than even the most optimistic observers say can be collected under present state tax laws during, the 1961-63 bienniufn. .As a possible indication of fu ture action, Sanford said in his January inaugural address that if higher taxes were needed to raise University standards,' he would favor such action. The governor is expected to urge passage of a bond issue for school construction, and is on record as favoring federal grants for construction. In past years the budget speech has not been given until trie Assembly's second week. Thq reason behind the early presentation, said Sanford,' was so that the. legislators would "act with utmost dispatch." No specific tax proposals have been made, Sanford has said if additional funds are needed, he favors consumer taxes, such as those on liquor, food or cigar ettes. Essentially, the message will reflect the views of the previous administration that of former Gov. Luther H. Hodges. But Sanford said he will have changes and additions to the budget later in the session. Consolidated University offi cers will be in Raleigh for the speech and the opening of the Budget Commission books after ward. No official statements will be made by C.U. officers until the Feb. 27 meeting of the full Board of Trustees. At that meeting President William Fri day and other C.U. and indi vidual University officers will present the University's posi tion in reference to the Com mission's recommendations. The total budget for 1961-63 is certain to exceed a billion dollars. Previous budgets have topped this figure.

A Talk With Dean Charles Henderson, Carolina Personality Of The Week By Jonathan Yardley Charles Henderson is a short, wiry man with an abundant reserve of nervous energy. When he talks he spins in his swivel chair like a Whirling Dervish, running his fingers through his coarse greying hair, occasionally leaping up to pace across the carpet of his office in South Building. He has only been Dean of Student Affairs for a few days, and has yet to find time to bring his volumes of Livy and Ovid and Virgil into his new quarters from the musty cubicle he once occupied in Murphy Hall. "I haven't had a chance to bring the really good things over yet," he said. "You know, being appointed to this position came as quite a surprise to me. But then it's about time a faculty member took it. I suspect I'll probably reflect faculty ideas up here, but of course this office is as educative as a teaching posi tion. "I don't want to manage a great big bowling alley. This role is not a means through which students' are to be entertained. This is an academic institution and . . . this is a platitude of course ... all these student activities should be directed toward further ing academic excellence." Dean Henderson paused to reflect on a passage in Isak Dine sen's "Shadows in the Grass," which he has been reading lately. "She says that it takes opposites to make a whole. I think that's true of this University and of student-faculty relations. A uni versity, you know, is composed of a library, a faculty and stu dents. And I don't like this term 'junior partner' that's often applied to students. A student is a student. It's as simple as that. "By and large in day to day happenings student-faculty relationships are good . . . excellent, as a matter of fact; but there are many instances in which faculty members, singly or in groups, are pretty well what's the word? fed up, discouraged, by student attitudes. Partially, for certain, with a lack of atten tion to their studies, but what really spoils it is incidents of im mature behavior which students themselves do not seem to want to control. "You see, the faculty judges students by very high stand ards, high even for adults, and when the students don't live up to them . . . well, that's when the collars start boiling. Did you know that last semester 380 Modern Civilization I & II text books were taken from the library and never returned?" Dean Henderson's secretary came into the room with a handful of letters. The phone rang. He gave it a perplexed look, then decided that the communications system in the executive 7 ' nut i'i'i'r"f'''"' i- - DR. CHARLES HENDERSON discusses his new duties as Dean of Student Affairs with a DTH reporter. Dean Hend erson succeedsFred H. Weaver who has become Secretary, of the Consolidated University. offices of South Building is just too complex to bother with and continued, jumping from student-faculty relations to the honor system. "Frankly, I think the honor system is a wonderful ideal. I grew up in a. university town Charlottesville where the honor system was a totally effective force. But it seems to me that here it's become too involved with mechanics; I don't want to try to philosophize about the thing, but I've picked up a lot of hearsay and it just seems that the honor system is becoming largely a legal proceeding inadequate to the situation itself. "The point is that we ourselves in this college community are a very salect group and are justified in expecting a higher standard of behavior in the group. Many of the faculty feel that a really intense effort should be made by the student body to enforce this higher code of behavior. And that takes guts, you know." The 37-ycar-old Dean reached for one of the stubby, non filtered cigarettes he smokes incessantly. "It's the slobs. And you know perfectly well there. are some slobs. There are people who simply have no respect for an academic context. That's all there is to it. "But you know, what I would like to find out is where, by classes, do you find the greatest concentration of these" people? Is it the seniors? I don't think so, certainly. The juniors? The sophomores? The freshmen? I don't know which group it is, but I firmly intent to start with the freshmen. "I "want to find those boys who show some leadership. They are going to hear from me. But that is not to say that this is going to be any bed of roses for those kids and it's not going to be any revolution, either. How am I going to help them? Well, I'll tell you one thing I'm going to do: I'm going to stand behind them and encourage them at every turn. I think if a boy knows that he has support he'll stand up for what's right for what he believes." The secretary came in again, except that it was not the same secretary. Dr. Henderson has, for the moment, about three offices and three secretaries, and the confusion that results is often beyond the pale of reason. After a few. moments of bewildering conference about some more letters, he changed the subject to fraternities. "I think the potential role of fraternities is an extremely great one not only in terms of housing and feeding and pro viding a place for social meeting but also in offering a definite reservoir of leadership. They have so many good men to draw on. "And I think they should encourage the student political parties to work more efficiently in student government and spend less time concentrating on gaining control of the fraternity group or the dormitory group. That way maybe the student body would try to elect the party-that seemed to offer better results. The party in power should exercise its proper responsibility to the campus. "If what I hear is true both houses fraternities and dormi tories have a great many things to clean up. It seems to mc that if belonging to a fraternity is any prestige then they should apply the principle of noblesse oblige towards the campus and the student body as a whole. Did you know that when I was in college the biggest rush point for a fraternity was the number of men it graduated the year, before? Things are different now, aren't they?" The subject changed again. Dean Henderson, late of the Department of Classics, commented on athletics and the advL-or system. As he talked, he shifted restlessly in the chair. He would reach quickly forward to make a point, then, just as quickly, fall back to comfort and relaxation. The topic turned back to the student body in general. "I believe that students at this moment have all the freedom that they need, and in some cases more than they need freedom of speech, of movement, of assemblj-, of domicile . . . the number of regulations on student life is absolutely minimal. And there is plenty of cause for some regulation, believe me. "Students are failing their responsibility in a lot of way.:, and patience is running out higher up, particularly in the faculty. What I want to do is give them one last shot at it because if it doesn't clean up I promise it'll explode." V
