Stevenson And The UN See Edits, Page Two Offices in Graham Memorial FRIDAY DECEMBER 1, 1961 Complete UP I Wire Servitf Interviews Slated Next Week For State Student Legislature By CHARLES HEATKERLY Interviews will be held next week to select UNC delegates for the State Student Legislature of North Carolina (SSL) which con venes March 8, 9, and 10, 1962 in the legislative chambers of the state capitol. SSL is an annual function and one in which all North Carolina institutions of higher learning par ticipate. The purpose of this legis lative body is to voice student opinion on state, national and in ternational levels. Each school presents one or more bills during the course of events. After pre sentation of a bill, the floor is opened to debate and then a vote is taken. In the past many controversial topics have been discussed. For example, last year on the state level, consideration was given to grant veto power to the gover nor. Abolition of the House Un American Activities Committee and a proposed method of birth control were issues pertaining to WORLD NEWS BRIEFS By Uniled Press Inlernaiional Integration Violence United McCOMB, Miss. The mayor of McComb vowed Thursday the city's bus station would be desegregated without further violence. Five Negro "freedom riders" were mobbed at the terminal Wednesday when they sought service at the lunch counter. Mayor C. H. Douglas told a news conference policemen have been put on overtime and the force was "now prepared to meet the emer gencies." He also said four young white men had been arrested for Wednesday's violence. Reds Charge Provocation BERLIN The Soviet Union charged Thursday that U .S. Troop movements along the super-highway to Eerlin are "provocations . . -fraught with dangerous consequences." U. S. officials dismissed the charges and ordered another U. S. infantry company to roll through the Soviet Zone to Berlin Friday. Communists Defy Arrest NEW YORK The leadership of the U. S. Communist party went underground Thursday to avoid the arrest of its American commis sars for refusing to register as Russian agents. The national party dismantled its leadership hierarchy in an ap parent attempt to leave only three officers to face the promised federal prosecution for failing to register under the Internal Security Act. Geneva Negotiations Stalled GENEVA The United States and Britain Thursday withdrew their chief negotiators from the Geneva nuclear talks. Soviet demands for an uncontrolled, indefinite test ban created a stalemate and hopes for any East-West agreement in the near future vanished. The talks will continue without the delegation chiefs. U. S. chief delegate Arthur II. Dean and Britain's delegation leader Joseph Godber announced they were returning home Friday. Neither would say when he would return to Geneva. Churchill Celebrates LONDON Sir Winston Churchill celebrated his 87lh birthday Thurs day with a breakfast of oysters and wine, a luncheon of roast suckling pig, and his first parliamentary speech in two years and a seven word thank you for a rousing ovation. For the man who rallied the British nation in wartime with his "blood, toil, tears and sweat" oratory, it was not a stirring speech. "I am very grateful to the House," Churchill said. But it set off a renewed storm of applause and acclamation al most without precedent in Parliament. AFTER BOND DEFEAT UNC Moves To Fulfill Needs In Capital Improvement Despite the failure of the en tire $61.5 million bond issue Nov ember 7, and despite Governor Terry Sanford's announcement Monday that he would not re quest a special session of the Legislature to consider another bond election, the University will be able to go ahead with some of its capital improvement pro jects.

(UPI) A howling mob tried to storm the iron-grilled gates of the national palace Thursday but was repelled by tank-supported combat troops who fired over the heads of the demonstrators and hurled tear gas j and noise bombs. In another incident a demon strator was shot to death. The embattled palace guard had to call for reinforcements to hold back more than a thousand screaming demonstrators. Two tuckloads - of combat - equipped navy units roared through the crowd to take up positions inside the palace grounds at the bottom of a hill about 200 yards from the domed palace. Troops ranged behind the fence encircling the " palace hurled scores of tear gas grenades and noise bombs to scatter the surging mob which broke and ran but re formed and charged anew.

Committee To For Further Action TV Showing For 'An Age Of Kings' Scheduled Today Today WUNC-TV will begin a series of eight Shakespearean plays, entitled "An Age of Kinzs ."

The National Educational Tele vision and Radio Center, headquar. ters and programming agency for a network of 51 non-commercial stations, last year obtained all U.S. rights to the series, a British Broadcasting Corporation produc tion. No ETV Outlets The NET then waived those rights in New York City and Washington, D. C, where there are as yet no ETV outlets, so that a commercial station in each city could present the series. The series has already had un usually large audiences in Eng land, New York City and Wash ington, D. C. A permanent company of about 20 players who occupied feature parts in one episode and minor ones in the next was used. The leading roles were contracted for separately with young actors of some reputation m the British theater.

By BILL IIOBBS The Citizens' Committee for Open Movies decided last night to indefinitely suspend picketing at the Varsity Theater. The group, meeting in St. Paul's A.M.E. Church, decided to await further negotiations with both the Carolina, and Varsity managers before making a final decision on resumption of picketing, the integrationist group will meet next Tuesday with E. Carrington Smith, manager of the Carolina theater. Smith has said his thea ter would announce a step to wards further integration at that time. The nature of this step has not been specified, but several members of the citizens' commit tee have speculated that it would be to admit the family and dates of the UNC Negro students. Varsity Admits Students The committee meeting followed an announcement by the Varsity last Monday that it would admit Negro UNC students who presented ID cards at the box office. The Carolina has been following this policy since August. A heated debate on the proposi tion to stop picketing preceded the vote of the committee. Several persons argued that the group should continue to picket the Var sity since it had been "less co operative" in its negotiations with them. Policies Same The majority of the group felt that it was unwise to picket one theater when both had essentially the same policies. Fifteen persons voted to resume picketing at th Varsity. About 100 persons attend ed the meeting. After deciding to halt picketing, the group moved that its execu tive committee make "every ef fort" to speed negotiations with the Varsity manager, Andy Gu tierrez. A meeting with Gutierrez had been scheduled for December 13, but th committ e felt that this was too close to the Christmas holidays to allow the group to make any effective decision.
