Dean Sitterson Agrees Budget Completed; $4,200 Left Over New iities For Advisoir C3 By JOEL BULKLEY Student Legislature Friday com- pleted action on the 1963-64 Student Government budget, allocating $161,148.84 and leaving an unap propriated balance of $4,267.08. Last year's balance was approxi mately $2600. ' Campus organizations will have to pay $10 more for a page in next year's Yackety-Yack, according to a motion approved by SL Thurs day night. The raise in cost, to $80 a page, will net the Yack an esti mated $1340 increase in income. Legislature also cut $430 from the printing cost, ordering the Yack to print 100 fewer copies next year, r Reporting staff salaries for the Daily Tar Heel were increased $200 along with estimated local adver tising income ($500), while printing costs were reduced $285, giving SL a return of $585. .

I3y STEPHEN DENNIS v nan is wrong with American ditniu 1 : i cture today? This was the subjec of the afternoon panel on ture at "the Princeton Re- archik sponse Conference. The panel was he,d Jfn Alexander Hall at Prince ton. a building which was greeted by tfhe members of the panel as an "Hl friend." Panel members Phil 1pJohnson, Raul Rudolphrtr-M. Pei, and Aline Saarinen (the widow of Eiro Saarinen) began the discus sion by saying the four had agreed to attempt to simulate one of the frequent discussion which the group has together about architec ture, this time with an audience. The panel opened with a consid eration of the problem of the pa tron in contemporary American architecture. Johnson said, "We have no patrons," meaning no pa trons in the sense that the Medici were patrons in Florence. Mrs. Saarinen added that the best pa trons today are anonymous. ; Rudolph believes one person should be ultimately responsible for even a large complex of build ings, that we are hedging with our armies of consultants. Saarinen stated with cynical realism that all good patrons are trying to have monuments to themselves built. She added that it is the duty of an architect to try to educate his pa trons so they will order good mon uments. " Then the discussion shifted to the new Pam Am Building in New York. Johnson said no one really wanted it where it is, but that the architects were foiled in their hopes for a park by "scoundrels." Mrs. Saarinen said the Pan Am space was rented before the build ing was built by making it a pres tige building designed by prestige architects. - All members of the panel regret ted the decision to raze Pennsyl vania Station, saying that it would be impractical in the future to build such a building again. Rudolph said urban renewal acts do not work in the United States because they ultimately lead to speculation, generally by one firm. Mrs. Saarinen then asked what power the public has in such mat ters, whether there were any dis tinction between architecture as art and architecture which isn't. She doesn't think there is any dif ference. Rudolph stated "What we need to know is how to add to existing things without ruining them and bow modern architects can build next to each other." Johnson said gleefully "there hasn't been any cultural explosion" there has teen an implosion at Princeton. He believes it has been the same problem with other great universities. r Rudolph said art appreciation is fine "if you can't think of any thing else to do, but it won't help architecture." He added, "In the iong run I would say that art pays." This was in answer to a question about the problem of sac rificing efficiency to art. : Pei was silent through most of the discussion, but Johnson and Ru dolph made frequent comments about him and works which he has designed. ! the University; $280 for the Senior rAv Snprial and $100 for Alumni n.lh Pncouraeement.

Parisienne Has New Picture By DIANE HILE "It has been exciting to live through the Cuban crisis while in the United States and extremely sad to see the events of Mississip pi and Aiaoama, saia searrice Lang, Tours Scholar from Paris, France. "Living in America has given me a better understanding of its motivations and I realize better the complexity of these problems which are distorted by propaganda? outside of this country." "I do not think that since my ar rival in this country (in August 1962) that I have had any big shock or surprise," she said, "but I can say that my understanding of the United States has become more complex than when I first came." Miss Lang has spent one academ ic year at Carolina. She has taken American novel and literature, j Germaa drama and literature,! I -! ' 1 - - i 1 ; 1 i ; - . , . ji f v f f fc .

The counter- pro test group was organized by Ruffin Dorm. Photo by Jim Wallace Ministers, Women Join, Arms Protest The UNC Air Force ROTC ob served Armed Forces Day with re treat ceremonies yesterday, but they had some company. Members of the Student Peace Union (SPU) and the Women's In ternational League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) preceded the band and drill team in protest of the Armed Forces. Included in the group were several children and two ministers. The parade began at ROTC head quarters at 4:45 p.m. and proceed ed down " Raleigh St. to Franklin St. The units turned west and marched to the post office, where the flag was lowered. At least a dozen policemen were stationed at various points along the route. Led by SPU chairman Pat Cu sick, the protesters marched in front of the band, the groups sepa rated by a motorcycle policeman. Carrying signs proclaiming "A Peaceful World is a Disarmed World" and "When Will We Ever Learn", the group formed silently across the street during the flag lowering ceremonies. As the procession approached the post office, a group from Ruffin dormitory, carrying anti-SPU signs, Clergymen Ask Mayor To Seek Integration Twenty of Chapel Hill's twenty three ministers have signed a let ter to Mayor Sandy McClamroch Jr., urging that he take immediate steps to end local segregation. The letter suggests that a com mittee be formed to "be charged with the responsibility of without further delay removing all policies in both government and business which deny rights and services be cause of race." Of the three who did not sign it, the Reverend Frank Perry of the Lutheran Church was in California, and the Reverend Clyde McCarter and Father Francis Murphy felt unable to sign it, according to Charles M. Jones, pastor of the J Community Church. After Year As British history and is auditing sev eral other courses. In France she is working toward a double major in English and German. During her stay she lived in Mc Iver Dorm and ate her meals at the different sorority houses, a dif ferent one each month. Besides at tending classes, she visited many families in Chapel Hill and a great number of North Carolina commun ities. "I have been surprised to dis cover a form of sentimentality and pseudo-puritanism in. modern Am erican society," she. said. "It is certainly different from the picture we get from the Hollywood films and from the tourists. "Americans are extremely hos pitable and friendly, and for a foreigner it is a comforting feel ing; In the United States you im mediately feel at home. This does not imply that everyone has" be come your friend for life that joined the march. A foreign car with a sign "SPU-RED" drove alongside. Each group was warned by its leaders to avoid the other. Cusick told the peace marchers, "don't smoke, don't talk and don't leave the group", while the AFROTC com mander, Capt. Lawrence D. Gar rison, told the drill team to "just ignore them." Although there were cries of "Communists" and "anti-American" from the spectators lining the route, there were no incidents. The crowd was estimated at approxi mately 1000. Senior Award Winners Are Announced Wayne King, Walter Dellinger, Donna Bailey, Ralph Mosely and Mack Armstrong were the recipients of awards to outstanding Seniors announced yesterday by the Office of Student Affairs. King was chosen as the recipient of the Earnest H. Abernathy Award, which is given to "the member of the Senior Class who has made the most significant contribution in the area of student publications." Dellinger has been chosen as the recipient of the John Johnston Park er, Jr. Award, which is a medal given annually to "that member of the graduating class who has dem onstrated most clearly the highest qualities of leadership in perpetuat ing the spirit of honor and the pro-, cess of student self-government." Mosely and Miss Bailey were chosen as the recipients of the Al gernon Sidney Sullivan Award by a special committee appointed by the chancellor. The award is given to "the one man and woman of the graduating class who have best demonstrated an unselfish interest in the welfare of their fellow man." Scholar Here would be impossible. "In the outgoingness of the aver age American there seems to me a great deal of artificiality, or ra ther superficiality," said Miss Lang. "However, when I leave this country I shall leave a few real friends and that is a wonder ful feeling. "I have discovered that the life some students lead here is as re mote from reality as it some times is in France. Also the stud ies in an American University are somewhat harder than we imagine abroad. Students in the undergraduate level are much more specialized in France, so the estimation level are much more specialized in France, so the estimation that French stu dents are two years ahead of Am erican students is quite .true. On the graduate level this difference disappears. - ' " ' . j "Here there is an emphasis om Said. Orientation Reappraisal Being Urged By BILL WUAMETT In 1961 a faculty committee re ported the University did not offer "a thoroughly desirable climate for satisfactory academic achievement," and that the ". . . need for change L more striking at the freshman level . ..." Since that time, a number of changes have been made in the freshman program and in the Gen eral College as a whole. Among these changes has been a reduction in the ratio of students to ad visors. A report released last week by the Academic Affairs Committee, however, calls for further changes. Among the report's sussestions were: 1. 'A reduction in the student-advisor ratio to 40-1. 2. An expanded and better orga nized Undergraduate Bulletin, so that students can more intelligently select courses before they register with their advisors. 3. More faculty participation in orientation, helping students to know their advisors, and aiding in the direction, of student interests toward academic pursuits. Dean J. Carlyle Sitterson of the General College, the administrator responsible for the advisors, says he is in agreement with most of the proposals of the student committee. "It's easier, to agree with their conclusions, however, than it is to find ways to implement them," Dean Sitterson said yesterday. The basic problem, he says, is finding men who are capable of filling the job of advisor, and who are willing to devote the time need ed to counsel more than 100 stu dents. "The advisor's role essentially is helping the student define his prob lems and the solutions open to him. But this is really the role ot all advisers, whether their advisees sre students or adults." Working within these limitations, a number of changes have been made in the General College which are in line with the recommenda tions of the Academic Affairs Com mitte. Freshmen advisors, Sitterson said, now counsel about 100 stu dents a semester, and he believes this number is not too large a ratio ideally for advisors to handle. This reduction from a former ra tio of 200-1 has been made possible by transferring first semester soph omores to advisors in their major departments. These students are transferred in the spring of their freshman year 2nd become acquainted more quick ly with the type of work offered in these departments. Dean Sitterson requires that each advisor meet with his freshmen advisees as a group at the first of the fall semester. After this meet ing the advisor is required to see each student at least twice more (Continued on Page 5) assigned readings that I have had not time for outside readings. Pap ers are very short and not quite as theoretical as in France. The extra-curricular activities are good. There are some incon veniences to it and in France we often have the impression that Am erican college life consists only of extra curricular activities. Another characteristic I like is the student government. I have the greatest re spect for the work it accomplish es." During the summer Miss Lang will tour the United States and then return to France in the fall. It is her hope that the tour will complement everything she has learned about America at Carolina. "I know that I have neglected many fields of interest," she said, "but if I had done and had seen everything at one time there would be no reason for me to ever come again to this country." Of U Academic Nece If A - 3 SPU IVLRCHERS carrying posters reading "When Will We Ever Learn," and "A Peaceful World is a Disarmed World" march toward the post office yesterday afternoon in protest of the Armed Forces Foreign H ere -.-To Their By BOB SAMSOT There is no stereotype of the for eign student on the UNC campus. A random sampling of students from all over the globe who are attending UNC showed differing opinions in almost everything from evaluation of the political system to the opinion of the American stu dent. Hassan Bahlouli, Morocco, ad mires the political system of this country and thinks it is the best one for this particular country's personality. He hopes "someday many of the good aspects of this country's government can be ap plied to my country. I admire the spirit of democracy and have felt freer here than in my own coun try." Maria Elena Bravo, Spain, thinks the system is "suitable for the people of the U.S. but I don't think it would be the best for people eve rywhere. Of course I don't like politics anywhere, anyway," she added. Marguerite Bou-Raad, Lebanon, thinks that we have here the best system and that our representation has proven most successful. "How ever," she addds, "unless the peo ple have a good education, there is not a good democracy." She likes the American constitution because of its flexibility. Terence Yen, China, thinks the two-party system is good beause it keeps both sides in the open, and "both praise and criticism are heard. This is the only way for a nation to improve." He thinks the American system should and could be adopted in all countries. Abdo Bardawil, Lebanon, thinks that the American system is fair but is "dismayed to see the states have so much power that they can challenge the national govern ment." He also thinks that the two party system is good but that it obscures the smaller parties and factions. Giorgio Dall'aglio, Italy, says Americans judge other countries too much on what they themselves do. He says they have the wrong ideas at times in world politics. "Their fear of communism is out of proportion," he says, "and this observes many issues from them." Lucie Garcia, Cuba, says, of the American political system, "I ad mire it greatly and have great faith in it." Economic System and Foreign Aid Most students are agreed that foreign aid is a highly necessary thing. They think that without it there can be no development in the world to the magnitude there is today. Most are highly in favor of the Peace Corps. Arnold Kroner, Germany, says mlv V N ; 4 1 jx ' t i 1 1 Students that even if the foreign aid shows no immediate effects we should persist and keep it up. "Even if the country in question is not at once swayed by the good will, perhaps1 your continuing unselfishness will sway it." Edwin Okoroma, Nigeria, the first Black African to attend UNC, admires this country's economic system and especially the social se curity and welfare programs. He thinks that the foreign aid pro gram should go more for the tech nological training of students than the spending in raw cash. He thinks both the U. S. and other countries wrould benefit more by this method. Terence Yen points out that this is the only country rich enough to give away money. He thinks that both raw money and training are equally important. Marguerite Bou Raad agrees with him. She says that without the aid, some coun tries would not be able to expand and develop. She thinks Americans seem to always think about the bad points of Foreign Aid and tend to forget things such as medical aid and schools, which are of last ing value. Of the Peace Corps, "It's good even if it doesn't help any one but the people participating in it. You can't help loving a people you work with," she said. Hassan Bahlouli says the policy of distribution of money should be changed. "The problem is how to '! ' , A K f fifth, ni - - -. W MM .

The Student And The University Hassan says that there is a maior difference in the students of this country and those of Morocco. "Here the students are pretty con tented to get out of school and do as well as 'daddy' docs. But in Morocco, we must do much bettor than our daddies. There the student is the elite. It is the student who will hopefully be the better leaders of years to come. They are the yeast of society." But there is one thing that Hassan was amazed at when he came here and admires very much. "The students here are not afraid to use their hands," he says. "They are not afraid to pet down and work with their hands and their backs, a thing which the students of my country think they are above doing. I guess it's the pioneer spirit. I think it's good." Most students point out that trj University is different than their university at home, but because of different reasons. Michele Wiederkehr, France says that the American student is less mature than the European .student. She finds the American University ( Continued on page 5) discussion and concern over the position of the fine arts at the University.
