Bellinger Plan
Gets Support
From Council
A proposal that all Honor Council
cases be open to reporters of the
Daily Tar Heel received strong
support yesterday from members
of the Men's Council.
The move was proposed Monday
by Mens Council Chairman Walter
Dellinger in a statement to the
Daily Tar Heel.
It was opposed at least in part,
however, by Chairman of -the Wo
men's Council .Bev Haynes. .Miss
Haynes said she thought the prin-
cipie Denind open trials was good,
duc mat me proposal itseit needed ijors in the Fall of 1961.
inodificatfon'. ' She saitt "she would
prefer not to comment further on
the proposal until she had ' confer
red with Dellinger.
Chancellor Aycock also. refused
to comment on the proposal itself
He wanted to do nothing, he said,
that might tend to interfere with
jthe 'students' right of free discus
, sion of the issue.
Dellinger proposed that, all trials
be - open to two reporters of the
DTH. The reporters would be al
lowed to report all proceedings ex
cept the names of the defendents
and witnesses
In the past, trials were not open
unless requested by the defendent
Only three such trials have been
held in the past two years.
The rarity of such trials was one
"reason for opposition by Women's
Attorney General Robin Farr.
" Miss Farr said that in her ex
perience as. a member of the At
torney General's staff, none of the
women defendents had wanted an
open trial.
. ;I think," she said, "that the
girls brought up for trial are the
important ones concerned in this
issue. They now have the right of
open trial, and I think this right
should be preserved. But I also
think defendents should continue to
be allowed to refuse this right."
-She said that she thought the evi
dence connected with some cases
might be sufficient to identify the
defendents even - if their names
were not published.
Men's Council members Grant
Wheeler, Whitney Durant and Bry
an Simpson all supported the open
trial proposal.
; Wheeler said the best part of the
proposal was that it would give
students more information about
the workings of the Honor System.
-"The system can and should be
improved," he said. "Many pro
posals have been made in the past,
but I think this is the most prac
tical one I've heard. There is no
question An my mind but that it
will work."
Simpson said he thought the pro
posal good in that it will insure ac
curacy about the proceedings of the
trials. He said be did not think
student arid faculty opinion about
the system was the major reason
the change should be made.
. Durant said he would agree with
the ceneral tone of the proposal,
if -we; were correctly phrased and
worked out. -

Students Placid
Following Riots
At Mississippi
By MIKE PUTZEL and
FORD ROWAN
Student leadership at the Univer
sity of Mississippi appeared calm
and undisturbed after the riot Sun
day in interviews with DTH re
porters in Oxford.
Most of the offices in the student
union were closed Monday morning.
and the President was holding a
meeting with the Associated Stu
dent Body Dance Committee to dis
cuss plans for the upcoming Home
ing Ball.
President Dick Wilson was asked.
Q. Mr. Wilson, has the Asso
ciated Student Body taken any
stand on the present Meredith sit
uation, or do you anticipate taking
any action now?
A. Yes, I issued a statement last
week in regard to , our position on
this matter. (He gave us a copy
to read. One section was a quota
tion fom the injunctions against
Gov. Ross Barnett. Another part
was a list of proposals of ASB ac
tivities for the coming year, mostly
dances and queens to be crowned.)
Q. -This statment doesn't men
tion student opinion, rational stu
dent debate, or any leadership on
the part of the students in connec
tion with the present situation.
Could you give us any information
about that?
A. No, I have no comment on
that at this time.
Q. This statement is about one-
third devoted to upcoming activi
ties. Do you feel that the primary
purpose of your student govern
ment is to carry out such activi
ties? A. No, actually this is just a
minor thing. The primary purpose
of the ASB is to represent student
opinion to the administration and
the state, and to represent the uni
versity and the state to the stu
dents.
Q. Well then isn't the ASB spe
cifically designed to express stu
dent opinion on issues such as this
Meredith problem?
A. No, we feel that this matter
is solely in the hands of state
authorities, and that it is strictly a
political question, and I think that's
all I have to say.
After this interview reporters
talked to Mississippian Editor Miss
Sidna Brewer.
Q. Miss Brewer, what has the
Mississippian said about the pres
ent Meredith situation?
A. Have you seen the last few
issues? It's all in there.
Q. Yes, we saw the issues, but
we didn't see much editorial com
ment, advice, or criticism.
A. Well, did you read this morn
ing's?
Q. Yes, there was an edit by you
on the riot bringing shame to the
university. But, have you editoria
lized before about Barnett's action
or the integration topic?
A.-No.
Q. Is there any censorship oi
the newspaper?
A- Ncr, I can say anything
want to. (The head of the Journa
lism school told us that pressure
sometimes was "unsuccessfully,
brought to bear to keep the paper
ur line. )
Why haven't the studant
leaders offered leadership to the
students? '
A. Well, we all discussed it and
decided "that it was best that we

Students Survey Remnants of Sunday Night's Damage
Football Forgotten
On Ole Miss Campus
OXFORD, Miss. (UPD Federal
marshals, backed by 15,000 troops,
saw Negro James Meredith safely
through his second day of classes
Tuesday, but many, students were
absent and the University of Mis
sissippi appeared to be but a shell
of its former self.
Armed sentries stood guard on
each of the buildings Meredith en
tered and Army patrols made per
iodic sweeps of the campus, still
littered with tear gas shells and
other debris from Sunday night's
riot.
Student social activities were at
a standstill, and even , this week
end's homecoming football game
with Houston usually a big event
on the "Ole Miss" campus was
all but forgotten in the current
crisis.
The Army loosened its ' grip a
bit on both the school and the town
of .Oxford, but the olive-drab troops
and their vehicles were still very
much in evidence at every turn.
Townsfolks and students alike
were sullen and openly sarcastic
over the restrictions placed on
their movements over the past two
days. The town square was blocked
off Monday and cars were stopped
at random and searched.
"I'll see you for lunch, God and
the Army permitting," one busi
nessman called to a colleague Tues
day morning. H e was standing
within easy hearing distance of
soldiers guarding the downtown
area.
"If it took 15,000 men to get
Meredith in here he won't stay by
himself, that's for sure," one an
noyed student commented. He said
he and other students resented the
way they were stopped, questioned,
and often searched by troops.
Registrar Robert B. Ellis said a

Makeup Of Crowd Changed
During Nine-Hour Riots
Rioting began at the University
of Mississippi when the crowd
seemed to be made up almost en
tirely of Ole Miss students, accord
ing to DTH reporters who returned
from the scene yesterday.
Most agreed, however, that the
complexion of the crowd changed
during the course of the 9-hour
riot. By about 2 a.m. Monday
morning, "about half or more" of
the rioters appeared to be non-
students, they said.
The actual rioting they reported,
appeared to have been carried on
by a minority of the crowd, while
most of the crowd hung in the
background and "stayed out of the
way
The number of persons who ac
tually hurled- bricks, firebrands or
gasoline-filled bottles was virtually
impossible to estimate, they, said
Most agreed that the majority of
the destruction was caused by !not
more than half" of the crowd- DTH
managing editor Wayne King said
he felt the actual number was less
than half. He set his estimate, at
"from SO to 40 per cent" nf the
crowd about 10 p.m
The. rest milled- about in the
background, he said. . "

back when the situation quiets
down. He said the students prob
ably would not be penalized for the
classes they missed.
Few classes met full time Tues
day. Students who stayed on cam
pus said there were many absen
tees and . many of the professors
dismissed their students after cal
ting the nil. ..- - -
a senior wno attended a science
class with Meredith this morning
said the session was quiet, "almost
normal."
The student said Meredith was
already seated when he arrived for
class. Tht; seats on either side of
Meredith were empty, he said, but
another male student was sitting
directly in front of the 29-year-old
Army veteran.
"Nobody spoke to him and he
didn't say anything to any of us,"
the student said.
The senior said the professor
made no direct mention of Mere
dith's presence but read to the
.students a part of a federal injunc
tion advising them they would face
possible contempt charges if they
took any action against the Negro.
Students entering the Lyceum
Building sometimes stopped to!
examine the bullet holes left in the
columns and the front door by
Sunday night's riot.
There were other scars from the
disorder including drops of dried
blood on the sidewalk in front of
the building and smashed marble
benches that rioters broke up to
hurl at tie marshals.
The last major resistance to ad
mission of Meredith was put down
Monday afternoon by bayonet
wielding troops, but there were a
few additional incidents during the
night.

the battle.
Besides students from Ole Miss

Gen. Walker Will
Get Psychiatric
Test In Hospital
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. UPI Form-
er Army Maj. Gen. Edwin Walker,
arrested for his part in the Univer
sity of Mississippi integration cri
sis was ordered Tuesday to under
go psychiatric examination at the
U.S. hospital for federal prisoners.
U.S. Atty. . Russell Millin said a
federal judge in Missisippi ordered
Walker to undergo . the examina
tion. Millin said the question of bail
for Walker is now immaterial.
Walker, arrested Monday at Ox
ford, Miss., was charged with re
bellion, insurrection and seditious
conspiracy" for his part in the riots
at the university and flown to the
hospital here Monday night.
Walker's attorney, Clyde Watts
of Oklahoma City, himself a re
tired Army general, indicated he
would appeal the committment rul
ing, which was handed down .Tues
day; by. U. S. Dist.,. Judge Claude
Clayton of the northern district of
Mississippi.
Watts told Millin he already had
the $100,000 bond to free Western.
district, said the committment
order permitted the hospital to
keep Walker "for such reasonable
time as the mediacl center may
feel it necessary to complete the
psychiatric study."
Millin said any appeal of the
Mississippi ruling could be handled
by the U.S. district court here.
Walker, who faces up to 39
years in prison and fines totaling
$40,000 if convicted on all counts,
spent a quiet night at the federal
hospital here the same hospital
which last month was making plans
to receive convicted Soviet spy
Dr. Robert Soblin. Soblin commit
ted suicide in London before he
could be returned to the United
States.
Hospital Warden Dr. Russell O.
Settle said Walker was in good
physical condition and "appeared
"emotionally calm" Tuesday. The
hospital specializes in psychiatric
treatment of federal prisoners.
Walker, who in 1957 commanded
federal troops assigned to keep or
der during the Little Rock, Ark.,
integration crisis, said last week
he was on the "wrong" side then
but is on the "right" side now.

CAPE CANAVERAL (UPI) 'A
break in threatening weather Tues
day improved chances for launch
ing Astronaut Walter Schirra on a
six-orbit space flight Wednesday.
The shot was to be viewed by
a two-continent television audience
that might include viewers behind
the Iron Curtain.
With the. weather looking favor
able, the Atlas rocket fueled, and
last minute preparations moving
smoothly ahead, Project Mercury
officials reported: "Things look
good for a launch Wednesday
morning'
At about the same time, United
States officials in Washington ap
pealed to Russia not to conduct
any nuclear tests Wednesday which
might jeopardize Schirra's flight.
The appeal was made by the State
Department to the Soviet Embassy.
In a last minute plan change,
officials expanded the period dur
ing wnicn scnirra couia De launcnea
from two hours to three hours.
Schirra's launching on his plan
ned six-orbit flight could come any
time between 7 and 10 a.m. EST.
Up to Tuesday, officials had plan
ned to postpone the launch if it did
not come off before 9 a.m. EST.
If Schirra's launch just happens
to be timed right, officials said,
television viewers in Europe and
possibly Communist bloc countries
could see him hurtle into space in
his Sigma 7 space cralt on live
I television relayed by the Telstar
satellite.
But of fiials emphasized that they
would not delay his launch to coin
cide with the pass of Telstar to
enable live transmission. If the
launch does not come when the
Telstar is in position, tapes will be
beamed to Europe on a later pass

Legislature
Can Legalize
Summer Board
Several student government of
ficials were asked their opinions in
interviews yesterday concerning
the legality of the summer school
student government and a possible
means of rectifying the presently
muddled situation.
Inman Allen, President of the
Student Body, said that he feels
there is no doubt that the summer
school board was invalid, that this
is a very unfortunate situation and
not one to be considered lightly,
but that a retroactive approval by
the Student Legislature at this time
is a legal and constitutional means
of correcting the error.
He is strongly in favor of appro
val at this time. Allen also said
that all the Legislators will know
how he feels before a vote is taken
Thursday night. "The basic ques
tion to be considered," said Allen,
"is whether justice was done by the
summer school Honor Councils."
Larry McDevitt, Minority Floor
Leader of Student Legislature
(UP), said that according to the
law, the summer school governing
body was . invalid, but that the
Honor Council was as effective and
just as any other council has been
regardless of the technicality which
rendered it invalid. McDevitt said
that this is an important matter
and not to be overlooked, but that
he feels justice was done by the
summer council. He is now in favor
of retroactive approval of the coun
cil. Rufus Edminston, Majority Floor
Leader (SP), said that the summer
school student government has
never been an effective organiza
tion and that it has never done
anything, but that at present, there
is little choice but to approve the
invalid council . cf . this summer.
Charles Cooper, Chairman of the
Judicial Committee of Student
Legislature (SP), said that he feels
the present situation of having an
invalid summer school student gov
ernment is "absurd, deplorable,
and farsicaL" He added that al
though he is opposed to the prin
ciple of retroactive approval, "Not
to do so at this time would be
purely obstructionar."

port that America's next manned
space effort will be a day-long,
18-orbit mission early next year if
Schirra's flight goes as planned.
Said that there will be less
radio chit-chat between the astro
naut and ground control stations
around the world on this flight
than on previous ones.
Announced that Schirra would
take with him the same kind cf
tubed food and candy that Astro
naut Scott Carpenter ate on his
three-orbit flight May 24.
Until early Tuesday, it appeared
doubtful that the flight would be
made Wednesday because of tropi
cal storm Daisy s capers in an
Atlantic Ocean recovery area.
But the space agency, which
stationed weathermen around the
globe for this flight, said that Daisy
made an abrupt turn which cleared
the emergency landing areas.
