Seventy Years Of Editorial Freedom Offices in Graham Memorial CHAPEL HILL, N. C, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1962 Complete UP! Wire Service A o Arming x o Talks 3 H cler 1 S I if' To Teachers "Teachers in the South have failed for years to supply the kind of quality instruction needed by our children," said William C. Ar chie, director of the North Caro lina state board of higher educa tion. Archie spoke Thursday afternoon at Carroll Hall to education ma jors attending the annual convo cation of the school of education The convocation was held in ob servance of National Education Week, November 11-17. Archie said that the students of North Carolina do not measure up to the students from other states especially in the fields of math and science. "North Carolina teachers are doing a totally inadequate job in the teaching of math and sci ence," he said. According to Archie, the average scores made by North Carolina stu dents on national tests are be low the national average for the tests. Archie has taught in several pri vate schools, and is a former dean of Wake Forest College and Em ory University. Archie commended the climate of freedom that is emphasized at UNC, saying, "No other public in stitution in the South can compare in the freedom of climate and the tolerance that exists in UNC." He said that the best place for .North Carolina to build a distm guished, tax-supported institution of Higher education is at UNC. Archie asked the students why they wanted to become teachers, suggesting that it might be because they were not certain what they wanted to, do .with their life. , "Most teachers are idealists, for if they didn't scorn money, they wouldn't be in teaching." He said that although great gains had been made in pay (he quoted $3600 as the average North Carolina high school teacher's pay), teachers were still underpaid. "The teaching profession is a noble one," Archie said, and he blamed the teachers themselves, by their depreciation of their pro fession, for the lack of good teach- . crs. He listed among the attributes - of good teachers: (1) native abili ty, (2) intellectual curiosity, (3) moral and intellectual integrity, (4) sense of humor, and (5) imag ination. The theme of the 1962 American Education Week focuses attention on the role of the schools in meet ing the challenge of change. President Kennedy said in his proclamation on American Educa tion Week that "We should exam ine the quality of our educational institutions and assess the degree to which our educational programs and practices served the interests of the individual and bring vitality and strength to our Nation and its culture. Every American should be committed to the advancement of education." A H mence New Technique Adapted To 'Worker' By VANCE BARRON JR. Memorial Hall will be converted into a "theater-in-the-round" for a special production of "The Miracle Worker" Dec. 14-16. William Van Tassel, director of the play, explained that the cur tain will be closed and the audi ence seated on the stage surround ing the play area. This technique was chosen because it "pulls" the audience into the action, Van Tas sel said. But although this heightens the drama, he continued, it also cre ates a number of new problems. Lighting, for instance, must be projected onto the stage from all angles without striking the audi ence. And movement must be con trolled so that all members of the audience see the faces of the play ers during the play. Also, audi ence size will be restricted to about 90 persons per performance. The "theater-in-the-round" tech nique was first developed in Dal las, Tex., and Washington, D. C, for small professional theaters iv, " ' 1 ,r' f ! , ;i U -r " - : FLYING WAS NEVER LIKE E.

SL Allots $961 For Yearbook by JOEL BULKLEY Student Legislature Thursday night passed three bills which ap propriated a total of $1,236.60 to assist campus activities. " A bill to limit resolutions which legislature can consider was tabled, by a vote of 23-7, as the thirty-third assembly concluded its last session. SL hastily, passed a bill giving the Yackety-Yack $961.60 in order to help them rectify a total error of $1,711.60 in their income. Louis Legum, Editor of the Yack, , spoke in its behalf noting that the staff had tried hard to raise the money, by charging ad mission to their beauty contest and by cutting the number of '63 books to be printed by 100, thus saving $760. He added that they were still very much in debt. A bill, introduced by Rufus Ed misten (SP) for Haynes McFad- den, appropriating $210 to the Asst. Attorney General in the field of legislation for the printing of a new codification of the statutes of Student Government was passed unanimously. Cheerleaders A bill alloting $75 from the un appropriated balance for the UNC cheerleaders was also unanimously approved. Its purpose is to assist the . cheerleaders in their effort to broadcast organized cheers from the Tin Can to Notre Dame Sta dium this afternoon. George Rosenthal, (SP) who in troduced the bill for head cheer leader Hannis Latham, said that since no appropriation for the cheerleaders had been made in this year's Student Government budget, that it was the duty of SL, the representative body of the stu dents, to aid them. He added that head football coach Jim Hickey had reported to him that this year's cheerleaders were doing an excel lent job. Hickey said that he and the other coaches felt that this idea to increase school spirit was a good one. Latham noted that $110 of the $300 cost of this project had al ready been raised through con tributions from other campus groups. He said that this innova tion in raising school spirit for an away game was a necessity and therefore warranted the appropria tion. Latham also stated that cheering for a school team in volved a cause common to every student, whether fraternity mem ber or a dorm resident. Lengthy Debate After a lengthy debate, a pro posal to amend the student con stitution was tabled for further consideration. This bill stated that legislature should have only the right to pass resolutions which would "directly relate to the cam pus" or substantially affect higher education in America." Fnrd Rowan (SP) called the wording of the bill, co-sponsored hv Arthur Havs (SP) and Bo Ed wards (UP) nebulous and also questioned the legality of it. Rnwan. acting in his capacity as SL Parlimentarian, reported that this bill was unnecessary because the student constitution, the By laws and "Roberts Rules Of Order" would effectively cover this meas ure vHwarHs: rpnlied that something concrete should be done to clarify the constitution. He cued a receni n nnnHiirtpd hv the communi cations Committee which showed that 62 of the students inter- AA hot want SL to consider off-campus issues as an example for his side. , Charles Cooper SP) concluded the debate by saying uui reins on legislature were needed and that everyone should be free to speak." mi Kiiic nnM- H romrnittee will have to be re-entered into the thirty-fourth assembly, wnicn con venes November 29th, in order to be considered again. ith X " 7J J V BEAT DOOK One of these five girls will be named Queen of the Beat Dook Parade.

(Photo by Jim Wallace) Mooney Named First Editor Of Journalism School Paper The establishment of a labora tory newspaper and the appoint ment of its editor were announ ced today by Dr. Norval Neil Luxcin, dean of the University School of Journalism. The UNC Journalist, to be is sued several times a semester, will be edited during 1962-63 by Charles D. Mooney, senior from Statesville. Mooney, holder of the Quincy Sharpe Mills Scholar ship, was chosen by a board of student and staff members. Mooney worked on the Charlotte News last summer. First issue of the UNC Journal ist will be a four-page, printed tabloid. The editor and the board will decide the format of succeed ing issues. News and feature stories, re views and editorials written by journalism students as class as signments or assigned by the edi tor will make up the content of Coed Gets Reprimand For Driving After Late Hours A sophomore coed pled guilty to a breach of the Campus Code -in the only case that came before the Women's Honor Council Thurs day night. The defendant was charged with the violation of a rule prohibiting a coed from driving after closing hours without the written permis sion of her parents. Students Warned Of Keeping Cars Here An official spokesman for the Office of the Dean of Men announ ced yesterday that all freshmen and those sophomores without 'C" averages would not be allowed to keep car's-on campus between the Thanksgiving and Christmas holi days. Such action would' constitute a violation of University regulations and would be dealt with according ly. .4 I' I !, i - 1 the Journalist. The UNC Journalist will be cir culated among journalism stu dents, journalism schools and de partments, North Carolina news papers, and other interested per sons. The publication will carry the best work of students in the School. The staff of the School of Jour nalism has had such a publica tion under consideration for some time. Final plans were worked out by the board appointed by Dean Luxon after a slate of stu dent members had been recom mended by officers of undergrad uate journalism groups. Board members are Gary J. Dalton, senior from Danville, Va. ; Harry W. Lloyd, junior from Hillsboro; Wyatt Stephen Lee, senior from Roseboro; Professor Kenneth R. Byerly; Dr. Wayne A. Danielson, vice chairman; Dr. Joseph L. Morrison, and Dean Luxon, ex officio chairman. The student had permission to be away from campus for the period of Friday through Monday and kept within this limitation by arriving in Chapel Hill at 6:30 a.m. Monday. Although she pled guilty to a violation of this rule, she stated that she did not know of the ruling at the time. When informed of it, she turned herself in to the At torney General. Statements were submitted from her housemother and her date. After a deliberation of one and one-half hours, the defendant was found guilty as charged. She was given an Official Reprimand on the basis that she drove all night and not for a short period of time, that she should have known the rule in question because she had been given a copy of the rules and was responsible for' knowing them, and that she had appeared before the Women's Honor Council before and had been found guilty on another charge. Defense Changes Propose PARIS (UPI) The United States told its European allies Fri day it will give serious considera tion to helping them create a niedi-ium-range nuclear missle f?rce if they want one. But it urged that they step up their contribution to increasing the size -of the Atlantic alliance's con ventional forces in Europe. The offer was made by Under secretary of State George W. Ball in a speech to the closing session of the eighth annual North Atlantic Treaty Organization NATO parlia mentary conference. Ball made it clear that the Unit ed States still believes there is no urgent military need for a Europe an nuclear force. But he said if the European allies really want one, "we are ready to give serious consideration to the creation of a genuinely multilateral medium range ballistic missile force fully corordinated with the other deter rent forces of NATO." He also' told, the Europeans bluntly that with their present booming economies they can con tribute a bigger share to maintain ing NATO's conventional forces. In Washington, U. S. officials, commenting on Ball s speech, made these points about the multi lateral missile force which he dis cussed: U. S. officials believe it should be a seaborne force, either on mi!- marines or surface vessels. This, they feel, would be less vulnerable to attack than a land force and less likely to be used for the pur poses of a particular nation. The force could be a European one or joint European-U.S. one, But it would have to be "gen uinely multilateral" and "fully co ordinated" with the existing NATO deterrent. Ball's statement apparently mar ked a change in the Kennedy ad ministration's previous policy of keeping the NATO nuclear deter rent as much as possible in Amer ican hands. Peking Paper Blasts Soviet 'Revisionists' TOKYO (LTD The newspaper Red Flag of Peking, theoretical journal of the central committee of the Chinese Communist party, Friday blasted Soviet "revisionists . . . scared stiff before the posi tion of strength of U. S. imperial ism." A 3,740-word editorial from the party organ was broadcast by the New China News Agency, and monitored here. Coming just a few days before the central com mittee meeting of the Soviet Com munist party, the editorial under scored the Peking-Moscow ideo logical rift. The attack on the Soviet Union was indirect, but unmistakable. Yugoslavia was criticized direct ly. The editorial ripped into "mod ern revisionists," a category in which Chinese theoreticians have placed Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev. Modern revisionism, the main danger to the international Com munist Movement, can be recog nized by its "surrender to im perialist pressure," the editorial said, in what could well be an oblique reference to the Soviet rocket removal from Cuba. Yugoslavia was scored for "re lying on the good intentions of the sensible section of the irnperiaUit circles, believing lasting world peace can be realized." Despite the attack cn Yugoslav ia whose President Tito was called "the most conspicuous exponent of revisionism, nea r lag siaiea mat any attempt by one party or coun try in the Communist bloc "to im pose its own views on others or substitute for comradely sur- - tion and criticism a method of in terference in each other's interna tional affairs will impair the unity of the international Communist movement."
