Dr. William Archie, director of the Higher Education Board, said the bill's three principal parts were results of "deliberations on the crucial issues" facing higher education. Dr. Archie said by 1970 there will be 31,000 additional students whose higher education needs will not be met by existing state or private colleges. "This vast and unfilled need," he said, "is what drove .the commission on." And he added that trus need was made more urgent by the people's failing on the bond issue 'of 1961." Dr. Archie said if 'the General Assembly approves this bill "for the first time North Carolina would have a solid sys tern of higher education for every capable boy and girl." Thomas J. Pearsall, who was chairman of a special study com mittee of the UiNC trustees, ex plained the ' controversial name change of N. C. State College. He said frankly it was a "very wor risome problem . . . but they couldn't keep the same name, be cause college ought to come out." He said the trustees did what the legislators do: Compromised on the name "N. C. State, the University of North Carolina at Raleigh." UNC President William C. Fri- day explained proposals to make all three units of the university co-educational; to give a new def inition of higher education; and to broaden the undergrad pro- Maj. L. P. McLendon, chairman of the higher education board, ex plained parts of the bill relat ing to existing jumcr colleges at Asheville, Charlotte and Wilming ton. He said it is "economically speedy and wise" to "utilize to the maximum these existing fa cilities. Then Dallas Herring, who will direct the new program, explain ed the major part of the bill, which sets up the machinery for a svstem of community colleges He said Rep. Clyde Harriss has called these new schools "the workingman's university." And Herrbg said the new net work of schools is designed to "reach the blue collar people.' He said the community colleges offer the "opportunity for the state to reach more than the 31, 000 students expected to be ap plying" to colleges by 1370.

S. Civil Rights Com mission. He said the new laws are need ed to protect Negroes from "the cruel disease of discrimination." Sen. Kenneth B. Keating, R-N. Y., who has accused Kennedy in the past of dragging his feet on civil rights, commented: Although there are some notable omissions, this is the President's strongest message on ciil rights to date." Notes Leadership Needed . The New York Republican said, however, that Kennedy's "eloquent words Mill h3e to be matched by determined leadership" if any civ il rights legislation is to be enacted- Another Republican, Sen.

"I suppose," the Georgian add ed, "that the potential power poli tics involved prohibits such a sug gestion." Williams Raps Message Rep. John Bell Williams, D Miss., said the message was "an insult to every American citizen of whatever race."

The warning was sounded by De fense Secretary Robert S. Mc Namara whea he was asked at a news conference what the gov ernment would do if Soviet forces in Cuba should be used to quell a revolt. "I think that this administra tion indicated before that we will lot accept operations in this hemispheie, combat operations by Soviet military personnel," the secretary replied. O.i other points, McNamara said: It is too early for any report on movement of Soviet troops out of Cuba in accordance with Mos cow's premise to remove "sever al thousand" by about March 15. Earlier, the State Department de nied a published report that Rus sia had told the United States it planned to keep some iorces in Cuba indefinitely. Contrary to some speculation, there was no "photo gap" during a period of several weeks just be fore the missile showdown with Russia last tall. .McNamara re ferred to six U2 flights he said were made Sept. 5. 25 and 29 and Oct. 5, 6, 7 and 15. He said he did not discuss these flignts in his television report on Cuba be cause they did not deal with spe cific missile sites. Ordered All-Out Check McNamara's news conference statements came as Rear Adm. Vernon L. Lowrance director of naval indulgence, said he order ed all-out scrutiny ci Cuba late last August when he became "in creasingly apprehensive" about the nature o: the Soviet buildup. Lowrance told the Senate pre paredness subcommittee that "re liable coverage of Cuba is a dif ficult problem." But he said U.S. intelligence efforts uncovered ex istence of the Soviet offensive missiles and bombers because "we take nothing for granted." The admiral said his suspicions were aroused in late August and September with the introduction of surface-to-air missiles, patrol vessels and cruise missiles. He said he then ordered "no stone unturned" to determine the na ture and extent of the Soviet buildup. Tne possibility of finding offen sive weapons was constantly con sidered before, he said, but ear lier arms shipments were viewed primarily as aimed at bolstering Cuba's defenses against invasion.
