The club plans to advance its beliefs through political action. The group . consists principally of people from the New Left Club which disbanded last spring. The club has much more solidified views, however, than the "any where left of Kennedy" which was the orientation of the New Left Club. In an interview yesterday, club spokesman Nick Bateson said that the purpose of the Progres sive Labor Club was to "act po litically" in an open and above board manner. The orientation of the club, he said, was Marxist-Leninist, but that, "Marxism-Leninism as a philosophy was devised to deal wit hthe problems of Europe one hundred years ago. It can only be applied by logical inference to America today." "Communist Enemy" When asked whether the group had an affiliation with the Com munist Party. Mr. Bateson re plied that the Communists con sider the Progressive Labor movement as a "very deadly enemy." He said "Political Affairs" the official organ of the Commun ist Party, had severely de nounced the Progressive Labor organization in an unsigned ar ticle. The unsigned articles are taken to be official statesments of party policy. Several members of the Na tional Progressive Labor move ment have been members of the Communist Party, he said, but all were either expelled or left of their own accord. None of the local members have ever been affiliated with the Communist Party, he stated. Objections To Communism Batescon said that he himself was dissatisfied with the Com munist Party. "We don't object because they are Communists," he said, "but because they are a bureaucratic organization, and because they are an organization that has made very few at tempts to make meaningful con tacts with the American people as a whole. "Another reason is that it is sort of a corrupt organization. There are fewer than two thou sand members in America now. The leaders are reputed to live at a degree of opulence inconv patible with the ideals of social ism. ' "The Communist Party hasn't been subversive, it's, just been lazy." He said that the party has dozie nothing substantial toward establishing socialism aid iis not contributed toward the labor r ".. a. . -3 :ip;i:::v 1.1. .l.rl.,.M l..,ll...k,Wvta-,T-v.'Mv--,1r.,,..1 Clark, Student Body Secretary,, is shown at left.

Ideology " , When quizzed about the ideolo gy of the club, Bateson said that it was "a democratic organiza-" tion with a small 'd.'. We ie lieve that the U.S. is a very' anti-democratic nation." No true democracy can. exist, he said, in any country with anuy kind of economic anxiety. "Freedom can only exist where there is economic security," he said. "There is no true freedom untU you have a complete lack of anxiety.' The New Left which was dis banded on campus last spring bad no connection with the .Pro gressive Labor Club, according to Bateson. He said that the New Left was a political discussion group in which anyone "left of Kennedy" was welcome. "However, we are organized for political work, not just poli tical talk." He said that the New Left had no ideology and didn't need one. It was for "any one who was moderately liberal." No Formal Organization The club is not organized as yet, but Dennis King and David Bland have been appointed of ficial spokesmen. The member ship now consists of eleven per sons, among them Larry Phelps, an - independent candidate for president of the student body in last spring's election. The group plans to be open and above board in its operation. Bateson said that there would be a limit to the extent that the public could be admitted .to the meetings, but that this is irue of all political parties. "We are not aa underground ' organiza tion."

"The Quarterly," said Editor Louis Bourne, "will not be run by a group of literati sitting in their Olympian office, ponticating on life and letters." Bourne, a junior from Wash : ington, D. C, answered the fol lowing questions in an interview yesterday: Q.: What are going to be the changes in the Carolina Quarterly ;this year? - A.: Primarily the Staff will be : younger than it has been in the past. It is hoped that with a staff which includes more under graduates, the magazine may gain a closer contact with stu ' dent writers. Also we are going to be work ing especially hard this year to give the Quarterly a little more i dynamic presentatiaon than it has had previously. By using the work of campus artists, we hope to : evolve a more carefully planned visual make-up. 1 Q.: I understand, that last year was, one of the most successful financially for the Quarterly, and subscriptions doubled over the previous year. Does this fact -mean that the Quarterly is simply- widening its popularity or im proving its quality? A.: Quality has been ' main tained at a high level. The Quar terly continues to publish the best student writings from this campus together with the work Yack Pictures Yack class pictures are - being taken this week only for seniors, third year law students, and fourth year medical students.

It was the second such Soviet harrassment since the U.S. Army began the exchange of two 1,500-strong battle groups be tween Berlin and West Germany last week. One of the first con voys was delayed for about three hours. -- Two convoys were sent West ward from Berlin Monday and two eastward from West Ger many to Berlin along the 110 mile highway. , . 76 On otner bodies were found for a known death, toll of six.

The big" airliaer vest down. Qiia lity of promising writers from all over the country, many of whom have published in such recognized magazines as the "New Yorker" and the "Atlantic." However, . although our on campus manuscripts have been fairly constant, they are no where near what they should be. Too few students with a poem or story tucked away somewhere, with " personally felt writings which they believe too vulnerable to be shown, realize that this is exactly the material we want to use to shape into quality writ ing. Too many - simply take an extra English course and forget about writing altogether. It is vi tally necessary that the students who send us material be ser iously interested in writing. They have to persevere in rework ingf, analyzing and polishing their writing so that it is potentially capable of being published nofe only in the 'Quarterl:'" but in other quality literary magazines around the country. . , Q.: How would you describe the character of the "Quarter ly?" A.: In the past the "Quar terly has had the reputation of being a rather exclusive beatnik organizatoin. This kind of image is absurd, particularly since the - staff and myself are only too. painfully aware of our fallibility as critics. We are all still in the process of learning, attempting to refine our view of literature. Certainly at a university such as this, the task of learning is ' not an exclusive one. Meredith's Lawyers Plead For Panel To Make Demand NEW ORLEANS (UPI) The U.S. Justice Department and lawyers for Negro James Mere dith asked a panel of eight fed eral judges Monday to order Meredith registered - immediate ly, in court, as a student of the Univertsity of Missippi. As an alternative, they asked that three university officials and the 13 members of the state col lege board be held in contempt of court until they admit Mere dith. . . . Meanwhile, Mississippi Gov. Ross Barnett, sworn to go to jail rather than see the school inte grated, ordered that federal of ficials trying to superimpose fed eral mandates over Mississippi laws be arrested. The developments came as the Department of Justice and law yers for the National Associa tion for the Advancement of Colored People NAACP asked eight judges of the U.S. 5th Cir cuit Court of Appeals to order enforcement of a federal court order that Meredith be admitted to the school. Mrs. Constance Baker Motley, NAACP attorney, said testimony Monday showed that the school's registrar, dean and chancellor had been prepared to register Swiss CD' shortly before midnight on a flight from the New Jersey base to." Frankfurt, 'Germany, with 55 servicemen . and 13 dependents, two of them children 9 and 11, and a crew of eight that included four hostesses. Four of those sav ed by the Celerina were women. The U. S. Army said the sold iers aboard the place were re placements being sect to Europe said its passengers included two for assignment. The Air Force returning to duty in Germany, two on leave and one who was re tired and: was traveg to Europe. By v;: RONALD RANDALL Injured Student Said Improved; Has Operation Ronald Randall, UNC student who suffered facial fractures after the Carolina-State game Saturday, underwent an operation yesterday and is reported to be in good condition. Randall said that he hoped to be out of the hospital within a week, at the most. When asked his side of the incident Saturday, he replied that he had noted dis tortions in .the newspaper ver sions but that he did not wish to make a' statement at the pres ent time. ; "The, police stated that Randall had received his injuries during " the fight which occurred after the game; however, other observers say that he was not injured until the police threw him over the- -fence, causing him to land on his face. Meredith until Gov. Barnett took over as registrar and personally denied Meredith's application last week. Burke Marshall, assistant U.S. attorney general, who is in charge of the government's case here, said the court should not only order Meredith registered but should ensure that the Ne gro would be able to pursue his studies at the school. The panel of judges was so large that the bench which nor mally seats a maximum of five judges, has to be extended to admit the eight. The ninth judge of the Fifth Circuit Court, B. F. Cameron of Meridian, Miss., did not sit on the panel. Cameron has ruled three times in favor of the University of Mississippi on appeals of Negro attorneys attempting to get Meredith into the school. Twice his rulings have been overruled by panels of his fellow judges of the Fifth Circuit Court. The third time, Negro attorneys took the case to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black, since the high court is not in session, and he overruled Cameron's ruling. Tuttle announced to the court that Cameron was not in attend ance "on advice of his doctors." Survivors Transferred As dusk approached Monday night the 9,040-ton Celerina of the Suisse Atlantique Line trans ferred all of the survivors by helicopter to the Canadian air craft carrier Bonaventure which sped to the scene with five de stroyers. The Bonaventure has a hospital, two doctors and nine medics aboard. It is expected to reach Ireland Tuesday morning. The Celerina was sailing east ward from Canada to Antwerp with a cargo of corn when it found itself the center of a mercy mission so vast the ships and planes in the area lit up the black ' - , f ycoc Council Head Suggests Use Of Recorders The present system of record ing Honor Council proceedings was termed satisfactory yester day by Chancelolr William B. Aycock. No changes were plan ned, he said, unless new legal requirements were made. The records system was sharp ly criticized Friday by Wake County Superior Court Judge He man Clark as he postponed hear ing of the Ann Carter case be cause of "poor recordings of testimony" in that case. Judge Clark said he was amazed that so little standard procedure and such poor rec ord keeping could occur in matters that affected the entire life of a student. He refused to set aside the suspension of Miss Carter on these grounds, but hinted at the possibility of a new hearing for her unless bet ter records were produced. Aycock and Dean of Student Affairs Charles Henderson re fused to comment on the case itself. Present Inadaquacies Chairman of the Men's Coun cil Wr alter Dellinger said that Council members had been "dis turbed" by the resent svstem in which Council clerks keep records of the trial proceedings. Inconsistancy in records was the greatest fault, he said, he cause 'of the use of different clerks and the occasional failure of clerks to appear at trials. This necessitates the use of a Council member to. both take records and hear testimony. Dellinger suggested the use of tape recorders or stenograph her as the most efficient means of achieving records compar able to those of a civil court. Women's Records Changes in the records sys tem of the Women's Council were made last spring, accord ing to Chairman Bev liaynes. The Carter case originated in the spring of 1961. Miss Haynes said that detail ed records are now made of all pertinent testimony, including statements, questions, answers and other relavant details. Three clerks are now used, she said, to facilitate the taking of complete records. Miss Haynes agreed with Del linger's suggestion of the use of tape recorders or stenographers. Dellinger said there would be little expense involved with the recorders after their initial pur chase, since the tapes could be erased if the cases were not ap pealed within the 72 hour limit.
