(UPD A Negro student from Trinidad was initiated into the Yale chapter of a national fraternity today over the objection of University of Vir ginia members who flew here to protest. The reverse twist of Southern students coming North to try to keep the Negro out of the other wise all-white Delta Psi fraternity was conducted in utmost secrecy without any banners or picketing. But the five-man group which flew here from Charlottesville, Va.. late Thursday in a twin-engined chartered plane obviously got a flat rejection of their opposition to the Yale chapter taking in Wendell A. Mottley, a sophomore track star. The Delta Psi fraternity also as St. Anthony Hall announced the 25 pledges including Mottley had undergone the final initiation rites and were now full members. Secret Session The Southern students were closeted with the Yale members for almost four hours. They de clined to comment on what had transpired, but it was expected they would fly back today and that the Virginia chapter must now decide whether it wants to stay in the national fraternity. Mottley was one of two Negroes admitted to Yale fraternities this fall. The acceptance of Stanley B. Thomas Jr., a Negro sophomore from New York City, by Delta Kappa Epilson had gone virtually unnoticed. Yale this year has an under graduate student body of approxi mately 3,700 with only about 25 Negroes. Mottley, a crack . quarter miler, is in the liberal arts school. Three Dixie Chapters Delta Psi, founded in 1868, has nine chapters at Columbia, the University of Pennsylvania, Trini ty College, Williams College, the .Friday For North Carolina's "progress and development in the near future is directly related to the success of the Nov. 7 bond issue," President William C. Friday of the Consoli dated University said recently. State-supported universities will receive $31 million if their por tion of the $61.7 million issue is passed. Of that amount the Con solidated University UNC at Chapel Hill, State College and Woman's College would receive $13.4 million. Friday told the Daily Tar Heel that the state schools "must have these minimum needs met through this bond issue to progress as they should." State-supported colleges and uni versities are an "integral part of the whole education structure," said the CU president. "Primary Importance" "During the last session of the General Assembly, primary impor tance was assigned to improvement of public schools. This was as it should have been. Consolidated University whole-heartedly sup ports Gov. Sanford's program. "But, a program for quality education," continued Friday, "re quires improvement at all levels and the University is the capstone of the North Carolina public edu cation. "The legislature provided funds for higher faculty salaries and ful filled other University needs at its last session. This bond issue, if passed, will provide the more ur gently needed capital improve ments for the schools." "Adequate Facilities" Concerning the entire issue, "One of the most important problems facing the state today is providing adequate facilities for institutions of higher learning, the ports au thority, the mental institutions, and the other areas which will be aid ed by the issue." In addition to the $31 million for higher education, the bond issue includes $13.5 million for state ports authority, $7.4 million for state mental institutions, $2.9 mil lion for capital, area buildings, and $2.6 million for archives and his tory and state library buildings. UNC's portion of the $13.4 mil lion which is the CU's share of the educational requests, is $5, 92,000. Included are: $2 million for State Pledge University of North Carolina, the University of Mississippi, Massa chusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Virginia and Yale. The five youths on the plane from Charlottesville were an im maculately dressed group of very serious demeanor who obviously intended to register their objections in a dignified way. Their spokes man, Ron Young, would say only that the group had come to dis cuss private fraternity business. The red and white Aero-Commander plane they chartered cost $350 for the round trip. UNC Debaters To Face Duke On Television The Carolina debate team will debate Duke University Sunday night at 9:30 on WUNC-TV. The debate is the first in a ser ies of 10 North Carolina college debates to be televised this year on controversial issues. Sunday's debate, in which Carolina will take the affirmative, is on the topic: Resolved that labor organizations should be under the jurisdiction of anti-trust legislation. Mack Armstrong and Earl Baker, who achieved an almost perfect record in national competition last year, and Bill Patterson will represent Carolina. Professors Don Springen and Joseph Weather by will be interview-ed on the pro gram with George Hall, station manager at Raleigh WUNC-TV moderating. The winner of the debate will meet Wake Forest on Nov. 13. Ui ges S Jomdl Issue A William C. Friday "stage one" of the Health Center; $1.6 million for a student union undergraduate library; $730,000 for a new cafeteria-service building; money for renovations and addi tions to Wilson Hall, Phillips Hall, Cobb dormitory, the heating plant and steam piping system; and funds for paving driveways and parking lots on campus. "Carefully Considered" "Each item in the bond issue for UNC has been thoughtfully and carefully considered by Chancellor (William) Aycock and his staff," said Friday. "There is no doubt in my mind but that the items arc badly need ed," he said. State College in Raleigh has items totalling $4.7 million in the issue. Included in this request is money for a new 800-man dormi tory; renovation and additions to classrooms and research build ings; a new general forestry build ing; and acquisition of 800 acres of the Finley property. Two dormitories and additions to classrooms and the dining hall are the major items for Woman's College in Greensboro, the third member of the Consolidated Uni versity. $22 Million Debt President Friday stressed that students "are carrying a sizeable I 5 - Y - 'A I f . . ... .a F ti it h It ''r ....

If the items in the Nov. 7 issue are passed, the student self-liquidating debt for the CU, said Friday, would be $22 mil lion. UNC's student union-undergraduate library requires $1 million stu dent self-liquidating funds, plus the $1.6 million in the bond issue. Friday again emphasized the de pendence of the state systems of universities on the bond issue for continued progress. 99,000 Enrollment "Reliable predictions indicat that enrollment in all institutions of higher education will be in ex cess of 99,000 by 1970. This year's enrollment was 70,000. "The difference is one indica tion of the dimension of North Carolina's education problem," said the CU president. "It usually requires a period of 24 to 36 months to construct a facility once the funds are provid ed," said Friday. "This means that we must act now to make provision to meet in creasing enrollment demands al ready upon us. The bond issue will aid considerably toward this goal." Government Institute Librarian Escaped Hungarian Revolution By Nancy von Lazar Law enscs often turn up unusual twists but seldom does the case of a lawyer pop into prominence through a twist of fate as it has with Olga Palotai, librarian at Carolina's Institute of Government. Six years ago, Olga had a suc cessful law practice in Budapest, Hungary, where she lived with her husband and two children. This was before the Hungarian Revolu tion occurred in October, 1956. Close on the heels of the un successful Revolution, Olgo knew that the only way to secure the kind of life she wanted and needed for herself and her family was to endure all the dangers accompany ing an escape from a tyrannical government. She made her flight to the free West during the time between sun set and dawn through 20 miles of forest dividing the Hungarian and Austrian borders. Necessity forced her and her husband to separate D e Gaulle Regime eems Riding High n Spite New Commentary by Joseph W. Grigg PARIS (UPI) Despite all its current tribulations. President Charles de Gaulle's regime in France is riding higher and more confidently today than anyone would have dared predict three months ago. Living from crisis to crisis is something to which the French have long since become accus tomed. Today's French headlines con form to the usual pattern of head aches for the government Alger ian riots in the heart of Paris, a nightly barrage of plastic bomb ings, angry farmers roughing up the minister of agriculture and a 24-hour nationwide transport tie up. The Algerian war is about to enter its eighth year. Moslcmfs end Europeans are daily at each others' throats in the strife-torn . North African territory. But there is a strong feeling among competent observers of the French scene that things could be a great deal worse. In fact, only a few months back the betting was that they would be. Informed Crystal Ball Gazing Early this summer a group of senior foreign correspondents in Paris met ' with a distinguished western ambassador and indulged in some serious, informed crystal ball-gazing. Their predictions, based on all the evidence then available, in cluded among things that were likely to happen by mid-September: A desperate, all-out attempt by extreme rightists, perhaps with support of part of the French and when she arrived at the fence separating Hungary from the West ern world, she found the fence had been cut and not repaired. Olga was able to walk easily into Aus tria. "Animal Nothing" "When your life is at stake, the strongest animal is nothing to man," said Olga. The Palotais came to the Unit ed Slates in 1937. Olga was deter mined to learn the Englith lan guage and to add it to her fluent knowledge of French, German, and Hungarian. Fortunately, for the Institute of Government, Olga's brother, Ti hamer Z. Csaky, M.D., who has been teaching in America since 1919, was an assistant professor of pharmacology at UNC, so the Palotais came to Chapel Hill.' Olga entered the University in 1953 ma joring in library science and minor in law. To her European law background, 50 per cent discount, brought in people dressed in strange costumes, shouted. Ann Sarrat from Nashville, Tenn. poses with Kemp after spinning the auction wheel in rear. Of Crises army, to ovctrthrow the De Gaulle regime. A crippling wave of industrial strikes coupled with widespread farm unrest. The same group reviewed its predictions this week and conclud ed they were fully justified at the lime they were made. But the group agreed that it was largely through skillful handling and firm ness on De Gaulle's part, coupled with a fair measure of good luck, that the predictions did not come about. Staved Off Revolt Perhaps the government's big gest success has been in staving off so far, at least the expected right-wing revolt. Astute police work has put many leaders of the extreme rightist Secret Army Organization (OAS) behind bars. Under heavy pressure from the French, the Spanish government interned most of its exiled ringleaders in Spain. The secret OAS radio transmitter which broadcast anti-De Gaulle propaganda daily in Algiers was captured. This does not mean all danger of a rightist revolt is past. Quali fied foreign diplomats hero still expect the extremists to launch a final desperate bid not to seize power in France, because this seems out of the question now, but to set up an independent "French Algeria" republic in Algeria based on the big port cities of Algiers and Oran with their large European populations. But, it is thought, even such a limited objective would have little or no chance of succeeding. It could only be a desperate last blow by desperate men.. she added knowledge of American law; she complemented her lan guage training with a new profes sion, library science where she could use all her languages in an excellent capacity. "The Institute staff has accepted me as their librarian in spite of the fact of my accent," Olga said. Unusual English She occasionally strings words of the English language together in a way unusual to Americans ears, yet the meaning is not lost and the phrase is often more potent than what we Americans do with our speech. Olga's colleagues tell a story about her way with the Eng lish language. One day a friend of Olga's came into the Institute Li brary just beaming with radiance. Olga looked at her and said, "Mar jorie, you have a glamor on your face!" iaJUemffed (."VVJW.-.WW.W.

(UPI)LoCal police have been keeping their eyes open for any "beer busts" ever since a fraternity house reported the theft of $245 worth of beer mugs. K - f - , I- v ' ? it x k i ' s ' ' , , ' NELSON ROCKEFELLER N.Y. Governor Asks For Test In Atmosphere MIAMI BEACH (UPD Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of New York called on the United States Friday to resume nuclear tests in the at mosphere and move swiftly. to de velop a neutron bomb. Rockefeller said he was opposed to another moratorium on nuclear testing. He urged speed in develop ing a neutron bomb "and other "new weapons of greater precision and flexibility," despite any op position which might arise from other nations. "It is one thing for America to be conscienciously concerned with the views of neutralist na tions," he said. "It would be quite tions," he said. "It would be a quite thing for America to start behaving like one." ' . Rockefeller's speech to the na tional convention of Sigma Delta Chi, National Professional Journa lism Society, was his first major speech on national issues since the election of President Kennedy last November. His aides termed it "non-political." 'Average' College Student Analyzed By Nancy Barr What is the average college stu dent like? What is his major? How much docs he spend, How much money does his family make? Where doe: he live? What is his father's oc cupation? A recent "Time" magazine sur vev has tried to answer these ques tions plus many others about the average college student. Includim state supported schools, parach.? and other private institutions, the survey covered a total of 4,69.r college students over a thrcc-yeat period. Dads and Moms According to the survey, mori than a third of today's college stu dents have fathers who have attend cd college, but the percentage i. slightly lower for students whos mothers have attended college. The percentage of women stu dents who have parents who attend ed college is strikingly higher thar men students. Over three-fourths of the parent; of all students are engaged in spm form of business, including farm. ing. The other fourth of the pa rents are employed in education medicine, law, clergy, governmen work, armed forces or some othe profession. Of the family heads engaged ir business, almost one-third are tor executives. Other positions hcl in the order of highest pcrcentagef arc managers and departmen' heads, skilled workers, semi-skill ed and unskilled workers, salesmen farmers .engineers and the clergy Less Than $10,000 According to the survey, almos' one-half of the parents of college students fall in the income bracket. Only one-fifth o' the parents make just $3.000-$4,991 while almost one-third ot the pa rents make $10,000 or over. This may account for the fact Smith Says Junior O f f ice Not Mentioned A statement contesting the exist ence of Junior class officers under the standing Election Laws was presented to the DTI I yesterday. Senior Newt Smith, who ub mittcd the statement, claims that Article IV. Section 3 of the Gen eral Election Law makes no men tion of the election of Junior Class officers. The section provides for the election of Freshman and Sophomore officers in the Fall election but nothing is mentioned about the Junior Class officers. Smith emphasized that the stand ing rule which leaves out the Jun ior Class officers is completely valid. "The vice-president Bob Sevier signed the bill. This indi cates that this bill was correct and passed in the legislative meet ing. This same bill was signed by President David Grigg." No Remedy "There is no remedy for this oversight of the Elections Laws be cause the By-Laws of the Student Legislature prohibits the amend ment of the Election Laws within 30 days of the election," said Smith. "I present this statement because I feel that there is no validity in electing Junior Class officers. I also feel that this would be an ideal way to eliminate the class officer system one at a time." Smith said. He said that the class officer system served no valid purpose under the present Student Government system, and that "a whole page in the Yaek was loo much for anyone except recog nized authorities and representa tives." Smith's statement was followed by a brief announccmbent from soplwmore Jeff Bayer that h( would "now press my point even harder." Bayer is running for sophomore class president as a candidate who "will attempt to abolish class of ficers if I am elected." Bayer has also claimed that the officer sys tem serves no valid purpose. Student government officials were unavailable for comment on either Smith or Bayer's charges. 'hat about 75 per cent of all stu Jcnts earn part of their college ex penses. Interestingly enough, more uni versity students live at home or in apartments and rooming houses in he college town than live in uni . ersity-owned dormitories. Accusi ng to the survey 7 per cent of all students live in fraternity and orority houses. 22 Per Cent Married Although most of the university tudents arc single, 22 per cent of the men arc married and only 0 per cent of their wives arc al.so tttending school. The survey shows, lowevcr, that 75 per cent of all narried students have husbands )r wives who have attended college n the past or are now attending ollcge. The largest number of all stu lents major in the humanities listory, fine arts, music, literature, anguages, philosophy and religion. 3usincss administration, the scie-.i-;es and engineering majors run ligh on the male interest list, vhile women choose education and ocial studies majors as well as the mmanitics. $1,000 Average Most students spend anywhere rom $"00 to $1,499 for tuition, iiom and board and special fees, lowevcr, over 20 per cent spend 1,500 to $3,000. while another l') er cent spend less than $''". The iverage for all college students alls at about the $1,000 mark. Education, knowledge and love of learning are the principal rea- ons for attending college, accerd ng to' the survey, with the W ire for a professional, specialized legree and ability to earn a good iving coming in a close second. few students attend college for social standing, marriage and lo fulfill parents' hopes.
