Bills Vetoed; Honor Council Active By CHARLES HEATITERLY The Student Government is ope rating this summer at a sub-normal pace. Last spring, president of the stu dent body, Bill Harriss appointed Hank Patterson as acting president for the summer and Pete Thompson as acting secretary-treasurer. Pat terson told the UNC News that much of the work done by Student Government during the summer lia3 been concerned with prepara tion for the fall term. For example, much effort supposedly has been exerted toward revising the Honor System. Also, Student Government offi cials, according to Patterson, have spent a great deal of time inform ing students about toe nature of the Honor System here at Carolina. In addition to this preparatory work. Student Government has been con cerned with projects necessary for the general welfare of the summer student body, said the acting presi dent. Two bills have been passed by the Student Legislative Board this summer. One was concerned with appropriating three hundred dol lars to the orientation committee for the annual dance with Woman's College given at the end of fresh rran orientation week. The second bill proposed to appropriate two hundred and twenty-five dollars to the WUNC carrier station for the purchase of records. Acting President Patterson ve toed both bills on the grounds that it was not in the jurisdiction of the summer legislature to appropriate funds for the fall term. According to Attorney-General Bill Hoyle, the Honor Council has. had a very busy summer. The na ture of this activity makes a large quantity of business undesirable. Cases brought before the Council were largely concerned with cheat ing on exams and lying to cover up. Hoyle noted that in many instances, the defendent was convicted on two different charges when he lied to cover up a violation of the Honor Code. The Honor Council is largely un der student administration. Al though an appeal may be made be fore the Student-Faculty Judicial Poard and the Chancellor may overrule a Council decision, these powers are rarely used. Hovle further mentioned that during the past session of summer school there had been a greater tendency on the part of students to report fellow students for cheating on exams. He commented that this was strengthening the System and that if students continued to take such an interest, the Honor System would be preserved. The chief function of the summer Student Activities Board is to pro vide entertainment for summer school students, thus attempting to create a more pleasant em iron-, ment here at Carolina during these i hot humid days. Bill Planer, sec-j ond-term chairman of the board i said that there would definitely be one and perhaps two more dances in uie remaining live weeivs oi 'News ' Report On Summer School Student Government summer school. In commenting upon the success of last week's dance. Planer indi cated that there was a similar complication as in each of the pre vious dances held during the first term: the boys were co-operating but the girls just weren't interest ed. Coed Shortage He added that there were reveral reasons for the shortage of coeds at these parties. In the first place, a number of students leave the campus on weekends. And second ly, Planer thought that perhaps the Victorian idea of ch;volry still per sisted in the minds Of" in-comin coeds who are relucani to go out unescorted. Much effort is put into planning and making necessary arrange ments for these dances. Funds from student activity fees provide a combo and free refreshments. AH students were urged by Planer to co-operate and participate in the remaining social events.
