According to the Student Gov ernment Constitution the Legisla ture has to approve all appoint ments before they become legal. The Student Legislature will meet Thursday night and consider retroactive approval of the ap pointments. If approval is not given, all actions by student gov ernment this summer will be in valid, and technically all 35 honor council cases could be retried. In the thirty-five cases tried by the Men s and Women's Councils this summer, there were two sus pensions and eight probations given by the Men's body. One suspen sion, four official reprimands, onej combination official reprimand- campus and one campus given by j the Women s Council.

In that case they could all go up for retrial. No Approval The Legislature recessed last spring without approving members of the honor councils because not enough time had been allowed for interviews. It did approve the chairmen of the councils, Clyde Benton as attorney general and Inman Allen as president. The Legislature gave Allen per mission to appoint members of the councils on his own even though according to the Constitution these Board also have to be approved by the Legislature before they are valid. . No mention of appointments to the Summer School Governing Board was made by either Allen or the Legislature. Appointments to the Summer School Governing Boar daiso have to be approved by the Legislature before they are valid. The board, composed o seven members, was appointed by Allen on his own during the be ginning of the first session of sum mer school. It then, being itself invalid, ap proved Allen's appointments to the honor councils and also the ap pointment of an alternate to each council. Discovery The situation was discovered at the start of second session sum mer school by Mike Lawler, who took over as president when Allen left after first session.- In trying to determine the com position of the Attorney General's staff, Lawler found that the entire governing board of first session had been invalid. He then formed another board, even though there was no legal body to approve his appointments. This unapproved Board then ap proved appointments to the Coun cils to replace members who left after first session. Infirmary Students in the Infirmary yes terday were Susan Matuszack, Kathrvn Jones.

Rufus Edmisten (SP) spoke against consideration, saying that there were not enough legislators present to discuss the resolution. Earlier, a motion for a quorum call could not get a second. Bob Spearman (UP-SP) spoke in favor of consideration, pointing out that the Meredith case was current and called for immediate attention. Legislature also considered a resolution calling for an artist-in-residence to be hired by the Uni cersity. At DTH deadline time, its passage seemed probable to lead ers in both parties. The Meredith resolution ex pressed the legislature's opinion that segregation in a state-supported university is "incompatible with the principles of human equal ity on . which this Nation was founded."

Redecorating was begun this summer by Lambda Chi's who were in summer school. Other brothers arrived in Chapel Hill this fall a week early to paint the entire house and to construct the garbage house and the pantry. The entire project is being fi nanced by the alumni and parents. The entire process of remodeling is to be completed by December 1. Concerning general plans for the fraternity for this year, the presi dent made this statement: "Even though we have a small group of boys to return, it is a group whom, I think, will provide a good nu cleus for fraternity growth in the future." "I have not engaged," Friday said yesterday, "in any personal criticism of any member of the Governor's Commission on JEduca tion Payond the High School, nor have 1 questioned the motives be hind any vote cast by a Commis sion member during its delibera tions. I do not do so now. The Commission report is in the hands of the Governor. I am quite wil ling to accept his judgment on the matter." McLendon claimed that the pro posal backed by Friday would con vert the Board into "a political football." The changes, he said, would incite political activity in the choice of Board members that would rival the selection of Uni versity trustees by the General Assembly. McLendon also repeated a for mer charge that placing college presidents on the Board would force them to "serve two mas ters," the state and the special interests of their own colleges. "It is one thing to argue in favor of autonomy of the University," he said, "but quite another to try to gain such status through political power." Friday Request Friday has requested Gov. San ford that the proposed reorganiza tion not specify that the president of the Consolidated University be a member of the Board. McLendon lauded this action Tuesday night by saying it was in keeping with the tradition of a great university.
