Harriss Corrects Speech Statement At SP Meeting On Thursday, April 27, the DTH carried a story on the first page under the heading "Har riss Tells . SF Students own Govt." In the story I was misquoted, and I-would like to submit the corrections. The article stated that I said "The University Party in the past two terms ha.c let the efficiency and the ef fectiveness of student govern ment slip." I did not make this statement. I said that it was time for students to re-evaluate their student government and to take action accordingly. Before posi tive action should be taken each student in the student gov ernment should make it his duty to find out all facts concerning the problem, so as to make in telligent decisions which will lead to a proper progressive course of action. We are now in the process of evaluating each executive com mittee to see that it is ac complishing its function, taking an inventory of all student gov ernment property, and investi gating the finances of all organ izations receiving student gov ernment funds.

Humber was admitted to the North Carolina Bar in 1920. As a North Carolina Rhodes scholar, Humber received the B. Litt. degree from Oxford University in England in 1923. He was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws degree by the University of North Carolina in 1958. World Federation He is internationally recog nized as the founder of the Movement for World Federa tion, founded at Davis Island in December, 1940. - Humber was vice president of the United World Federalists from 1947-1950.' He was award ed the World Government News medal for the most outstanding service by an individual . to World Federation in 1948. In the same year, he was awarded the American War Dads Prize for the greatest single contribution toward world peace. Humber's talk is being spon sored by the University's ' Law Students Association. Rep on $2,000 Refused When Doug Moe faces the Men's Honor Council, the charge against him will be "failure to report an infrac tion of the honor code," ac cording to Al Cronenberg, UNC attorney general. Moe still had not been located by the attorney general's staff late yesterday afternoon. He is reportedly in Chicago to talk contract with officials of the Chicago Majors. George Campbell, chairman of the men's honor council, de clined to comment on the na ture of the charges against Moe. "Good Friends" Moe, a senior from Brooklyn, N. Y., is a "good friend" of Lou Brown, who was implicated as a contact man in the college basketball scandals. "The University's concern is that no one in authority re ceived reports from Moe of any fix attempt," said Chancellor William Aycock. Brown, former Carolina stu dent and basketball player, was named this week as a co-conspirator in attempts to bribe college basketball players, in an investigation by New York authorities. Brown is said to have con tacted and was "most success ful at St. f Joseph's and LaSaiie in setting up; pla'ycrs"' f or Aaron Wagman, the prime mover in the latest eruption of the fix scandal. . ' . s - Reliable sources have indicat ed that Moe was offered up to $2,000 to "shave points" (hold down his scoring) for a game. The particular game or games were not identified. "Wagman gave $75 to Moe as a softening-up gift and Moe never reported this," said New York District Attorney Frank Hogan according to a recent Charlotte Observer article. Code Violation The failure to report the $75 gift would not be an honor council violation, according to Student Government sources. However, if Moe had knowledge that Brown was, as alleged, a middle-man for Wagman, it would be a violation. Neither Moe nor Brown has been accused of accepting bribes to influence the outcome of any UNC game. District Attorney Hogan said that Brown had attempted to lure some of his teammates into the conspiracy but was appar ently completely unsuccessful. inner Positions Are M.
