CAROLINA QUARTERLY All interested students are in vited to attend the Carolina Quar terly's organizational meeting 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in Roland Parker 3 in Graham Memorial.

B arnett Takes Charge, R efuses To Admit OXFORD, Miss. (UPD Gov. Ross Barnett Thursday refused to register Negro James 'Meredith as a student at the University of Mississippi. The action came shortly after Meredith arrived on the Univer sity of Mississippi campus late Thursday. He was greeted by the derisive cries from hundreds of students who were lined up behind a chain fence and a barricade of Missis sippi state troopers. He was taken into the alumni building about a quarter of a mile from the administration building and the gymnasium where he normally would have been regis tered. ' Students who had waited all day for the Negro's appearance on the campus let loose loud cries of "There's that nigger" and "you black so and so." Less than an hour prior to Meredith's arrival the State Col lege Board the agency that or dinarily would have the final word on whether Meredith would be admitted voted to back Bar nett in his defiance of a federal court order to admit the Negro. Tom Tubb. the board chairman, said: "This leaves everything up to the governor. It's in his hands. We are united in support cf him even those who voted against backing him." Infirmary Students in the infirmary yes terday were Gaye B. Glover, Nancy Lou Kennington, Shamoon Urshano-Oulhehi, Charles Reeves, William Fugate, Ernest Collins, David Henry, and Hugh Eagle-ton. Report On NSA Confab Cunningham postal amendment; and supporting increased govern ment intervention in the civil rights resolution. UNC voted against the civil rights resolution. Basic policy declarations on cold war influence on higher edu cation, and on procedural due process on campus were passed, with Carolina support. Bill Amended A controversial resolution call ing for the abolition of the Inter nal Security Act of 1950 was amended to a request for Con gressional reconsideration. UNC voted 3-3 on the amended resolu tion. (A special section on the Na tional Student Congress will be run in the Daily Tar Heel next week. This section will print in full the major resolutions and mandates passed, and give the votes of individual Carolina dele gates. Eds.) The nuclear testing resolution passed by 30 votes, after an all night debate lasting more than four hours. The delegates defeat ed an amendment to condemn the "resumption of tests by the USSR which broke the 34-month mora torium on tests" and express "regrets that the United States felt compelled to resume testing also." The constitutionality of this resolution and that of the Inter nal Security Act bill were chal lenged and upheld. The chal lenges were based on the view that the resolutions went beyond the scope of the National Student Association as a nonpartisan group interested in the issues fac ing "students in their role as students." No Aid The federal aid to higher edu cation resolution said "aid should not be so greatly concentrated in the science areas," which creates a "serious imbalance." It also called for no aid to be (Continued on Page 6) The 29-year-old Meredith was armed with two court orders of his own. Both were handed down in hopes of preventing his arrest by state officials. One order would prevent offici als from arresting Meredith in connection with his conviction Thursday morning on a charge of falsifying a voter registration application. The other restrains officials from enforcing a newly enacted state law that would make it a misdemeanor for any person with a charge involving ''moral turpitude" pending against him to register at a state university. Meredith had until 7 p.m. EDT before registration lines closed for the day, and he could still reg ister Friday. Some minutes before Meredith Campus Briefs C.U.S.C. FLAG The C.U.S.C.

GAME ENTRANCE To relieve student congestion at Gate No. 5, Gate No. 4 will also be used for student admis sions to the southside student sections. All students in Sections 13 through 16 who will use rows A through R must enter through this gate. When space on the south side is exhausted, Sections All Wet, Tells Students By HUBERT HAWKINS Chancellor Aycock spoke to key campus leaders yesterday morn ing in a three-hour conference aimed at better student under ' standing of the University's poli cies and motives. The Chancellor introduced top administrative officers who re ported on the various aspects of the growing university. A similar conference was held two years ago. Stressing the need for greater development and enlargement, Aycock cited the increase in quality education here in recent years and the doubling of funds for library facilities since 1956. Aycock commented on the "crocodile tears" being shed about the University not being Ogle Says He Will Hear Davis Here C. M. Ogle, president of the Association of Afternoon Daily Newspapers in North Carolina, has agreed to hear Lambert Davis, director of the University Press, at the N.C. Press Asso ciation board of directors meet ing here Saturday. Ogle is pub lisher of the Times News in Hendersonville. Davis requested a hearing be fore the board to discuss what has been termed a premature breaking of a story about the book by Luther H. Hodges pub lished by the University Press. Release date is set at October 6. William Shires," who writes a caU umn for the afternoon dailies, broke information about contents of the book Sept. 17. In protesting the action of Shires, Davis asked to be heard by the Press Association direc tors. Ogle replied that although, the Press Association is not the proper body for hearing the mat ter, several members on the board also are members of the Association of Afternoon Dailies and will, therefore, be glad to hear him. Negro arrived on the campus from an undisclosed spot in Oxford where he had been staying for a few hours, the street in front of the building was lined by gray-clad state troopers who have been here in strong force since Wed nesday. The troopers would let no one cross the street in front of the alumni building where Barnett and university leaders stood on the porch waiting for Meredith's arrival. When Meredith arrived with three or four deputy marshals, a general chorus of boos went up. Then the crowd started the chant "nigger, nigger, nigger." He walked about 40 yards from where the car was parked to the building. Yelling subsided after he got inside. A and B at the west end will be used with entrance through three special lanes at Gate No. 4. FKESHLN AND VARSITY BASEBALL All candidates for freshman and varsity baseball are request ed to meet on Emerson Field at 3 p.m. on Monday. If a labora tory conflicts with the reporting time, candidates should report sometime between the hours of 3 and 5 p.m. ALPHA PHI. OMEGA The first meeting of the year of Alpha Phi Omega will be held on September 25 at 6 pjn. on the second floor of Lenoir Hall. Dress will be coat and tie. Aycock like it used to be. "Everyone seems to remember it as being at its best at the time he grad uated," he said. Money Request Recent budget developments include the request to the state legislature for an undergraduate library-student . union building larger than the one lost in the bond election last year. "Highest priority will go to the hospital and medical school," Aycock said. "At present, en rollment is frozen in the Medical School and the School of Dentis try." Overall student enrollment has increased by about five hundred a year since 1957, and the Chan cellor projected the same rate in years . to come if adequate facilities can be gained. Praising the quality of Univer sity instruction, he noted that full-time instructors are hired al most exclusively from the ten best schools in the nation.- He cited progress in placing these, men in more advanced courses, leaving the basic classes in gram mar or foreign language to grad uate students. v "In the first place, if you ask a highly trained man to teach such classes, he probably won't do it readily. It's like asking a Supreme Court justice to preside at a Justice-of-the-Peace hear ing." Peace Corps In answer to a student ques tion about the significance, of UNC's participation in the Peace 'Corps training program, "the Chancellor observed that this is the only institution in the South serving as host to a Corps pro gram. He said its importance is in "having some people here who feel that, notwithstanding the complexity of this whole world, maybe what one person can do will make a difference." Carlyle Sitterson, Dean of the General College and the College of Arts and Sciences, discussed academic advising. "We have less difficulty in ad vising the hundred freshmen as signed to an adviser than we have in getting the students to come for advice." He stressed that the University will stand be-- hind mistakes made by a stu dent's adviser, but takes no re sponsibility for outside advice. Sitterson warned against over- -dependence on the college board " exams in receiving new stu dents. He said the more impor tant factor of motivation has been seen in student records, and is presently under study by his of fice. Councils Too Lenient Charles Henderson, Jr., Dean of Student Affairs, praised the honor councils for good judgment, but said the faculty generally felt their sentences were "not rigid enough." "We see many more exonera tions, more indefinite probations, . and fewer indefinite suspensions," -he said. Henderson urged against pri- vate punishment of students by faculty members in cases such as cheating, advocating instead the. -due process of trial by honor council. He noted that distribution of "pep pills" by students would -" probably receive strict punish- ment by the student courts. Drinking He further explained the "lib eral" policy of the University toward drinking which punishes "excess and misconduct" in re gard to alcohol and considers drunkenness as ."a serious, ag gravation" of any . other. JDffense; : He urged student responsibility : in this liberal policy. He commented on tie Univer sity's "open" speaker policy and encouraged students not to "pro voke test cases" in choosing -speakers here this year. Dean Henderson said the in tramurals program has-"a ter--rible shortage in my judgment.". He also predicted stricter auto mobile regulations this year. - Jliiliiig i "Carte "" , I. I.

IFC president, Jim Dillashaw, and Bob Spearman took the side of the fraternities in a discussion that lasted two hours. Mike Law ler and Mickey Simmons took up the opposition. Opening the discussion Dilla shaw said that UNC fraternities were interested in academies "because the student's first and foremost goal is to graduate." He Carter Case Heads Summer News List News events during the sum mer ran the gamut from Ann Car ter's readmission to the Univer sity to Dean Luxon's refusal to grant Fred Jerome a journalism fellowship after Luxon learned Jerome had refused to answer a significant question before the House Un-American Activities Committee. Dean Heard's resignation from the Graduate School and his ac ceptance of the Chancellorship of Vanderbilt University in Nash ville, Tennessee came as a sur prise at the outset of the summer. Perhaps the most significant event was the Anne Carter case. As a freshman she was convicted of turning in the answers to a wrong exam to her Latin I in structor. When the case was brought before the Women's Council, she was found guilty and suspended from the University. Civil Court Review Miss Carter then filed a peti tion in Wake County Superior Court for a review of the case, thus legally challenging the right of the Women's Council to expell a student from the University. Chancellor Aycock decided to readmit her to the University ; as a summer school student al though the Women's Council had not voted for readmission. From Columbia in South America, one of the 14 ex-UNC students now in the Peace Corps, Norwood Holmes, wrote that he : was having a good time and of his encounters with Communists there. The Greek: Is He Sinner Or Dillashaw Kreps it i i ear Panel P H added that because all fraterni ties must have a C average to keep rushing privileges, the brothers have to maintain high academic standards for their fraternities to survive. He went on to say that fra ternities provide many students with economic help in the form of scholarships and jobs. Education Speaking against the fraternity life, Mike Lawler said that the chief purpose of the student is not to graduate but to get an education and particularly a per- "There is really some differ ence in talking about Communists and talking with a Communist," he WTote. "Most of them are young, and even though they are very articulate, I get the feeling they are not too dedicated. How ever, I understand the movement is growing here in Columbia. I suppose all people want and need a cause . . . However, it is some thing for a Communist to tell you (Continued on Page 3) UN Plane Attacker UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.

The United Nations disclosed that the plane was a C47 downed near the Kasai-Katanga provincial- border while on a reconnais sance flight. It was not known whether there were any survivors.

Lawler Simmons (Photo by Wallace) lug, System sonal philosophy and set of values. The fraternities, he con tinued, tend to prevent this by keeping their brothers in a par ticular crowd. You are not very likely to meet many art students or foreign students at a fraternity party he added. To this Spearman countered that the fraternities have been housing Goettingen scholars for the past several years. A fra ternity on campus, he added, was planning an exchange program with a university in Paraguay. When the question came up again later on, Spearman said that the development of the student was an individual affair and that a student could hole himself up as easily in a dormitory as he could in a fraternity. Discrimination Simmons brought up a touchy point when he said he opposed discrimination on the part of fra ternities against minorities. Dil lashaw said there was on the UNC campus only one out of the 24 social fraternities that had a discriminatory clause in its by laws. Simmons also said he was op posed to the standards fraterni ties used when they were pick ing pledges. He said that pledges wrere far more likely o be picked for the way they dressed or (Continued on Page 4) Downed; Unknown official in the Congo, ordered the central Congolese government and Moise Tshombe's secession ist Katanga regime to bar all military movements in the area.

Contests Power Of Honor Coimci By BILL IIOBBS The legality of UNC's student honor system will be challenged this morning at Wake County Su perior Court in Raleigh. Judge Heman R. Clark will hear the petition of Anne Carter, a student who was suspended from the University in the spring of 1961. Miss Carter's lawyer, John Manning of Chapel Hill, is contendeng that the Woman's Council had no legal basis to . suspend Miss Carter. The case began in the spring of 1961 when John Catlin, an instructor in Latin 1, reported contending that the Woman's Council for answering the ques tions to an earlier quiz in his course when she took a make-up quiz made out especially for her and taken by her at a later date. Miss Carter has appealed her case to UNC Chancellor Williom B. Aycock, Consolidated Univer sity President William C. Friday, and the Consolidated University's Board of Trustees. All have up held the Woman's Council deci sion. Special Committee The Board of Trustees estab lished a special committee under the chairmanship of William Medford to investigate the case in general and Miss Carter's claims in specific. The commit tee published a special report this spring which said that the Woman's Council trial had been "fair" and recommended thai the Board of Trustees not con sider this or any other discipli nary case at the University. Miss Carter's lawyer has now (Continued on Page 5) WUNC-TV To Begin Fall Operation Educational television via WUNC-TV, Channel Four, will return to the air with a full fail schedule beginning Monday.
