Fraternity Debate
By PETE ; .WALES . .
Whether or not one joins a
fraternity is pretty much up to
the -individual. . : . ' :
This -.was the upshot, of. a two
hour orientation .debate on. the
benefits and evils of the fratern
ity system at UNC. The debate
was" held Thursday afternoon.
'."Everyone here at Carolina is
avtinique and separate person,"
Bob .Spearman, vice president -of
the student body and active fra
ternity member, "said. "There is
no one single answer to fraterni
ties. Your decision is an in
dividual one."
' The debating panel was made
up: of non-fraternity members
Mike Lawler, president of the
student body, and Gerry Goode,
Intcr-Dormitory Council presi
dent, along with Inter-Fraternity
Council president Charley Battle
and Spearman. Dr. Clifford H.
Kreps, chairman of the faculty
committee ' on fraternities and
sororities; acted as moderator.
Xawler,. who pledged a fratern
ity, his freshman year, and later
depledged, cited four criticisms
of fraternities as they exist at
UNC: - - -
1) Discrimination clauses
"There are only ten discrimina
tion clauses as such in national
fraternities but most of the rest
have the . so-called - gentleman
clauses." : .
2) Social circumscription
"Fraternity men tend toxlate only
in the -'status sororities. Also,
the fraternity system, from my
own - personal experience,, does
tend to narrow down the range
of .friendships.", - .. ..
,3) Fraternity relations -. with
faculty, administratioft and - the

community "Faculty-rfraternity
relations are too consistently lim
. ited to the formal cocktail party
and tea . . , it's often superfici
! al." . " ;
4) Academics "The fraterni-
ties get the " creaih ' of the crop
scholastically and yet the all
fraternity average is only slightly-
above the all-men's average."
Spearman; followed urging,
freshmen to estimate for them
selves the "educational value of
the fraternity organization.
"The fraternity offers , a circle
of friends, people interested in
your welfare."
Spearman mentioned the help
offered to a new fraternity mem
ber by the older brothers in aca
demics, social life and in intro
duction to campus and student
government affairs.
"By joining a fraternity you
can meet a wide variety of people
and learn to live with them.
"The fraternity is a large and
often cumbersome operation. It
offers a unique opportunity to
participate in a real democracy.
Spearman warned of the time
and money required by fraterni
ties. He closed by urging- fresh
. men not to narrow their horizons,
whether they should join a fra
ternity or not." -
Goode spoke of rush week and
. the problems of choosing a fra
ternity on the basis of only a few
. nights durmg'rush.V
"There are things that are hid
den during rush week that are
not as they appear during the
rest Of the year. Look carefully
at each house and ask questions.
' Try to determine what the house
; and the boys will be like to live
with during the year." " ;

Bell Rings For
Death Of Former
UNC Official
Several students were wonder
ing Friday why the bell which
signals the change of classes,
kept ringing for "additional three
minutes. :
The ringing of the bell is part
of an , adopted University ritual
that occurs each time a prom
inent member of "the staff or
faculty dies.
The toll of the bells Friday
was in honor of Russell Grum
man who headed the Extension
Division here for 30 years prior
to his retirement seven years
ago. Grumman died in Mt. Dora,
Fla. Tuesday.
University Maintenance man
George Fearrington explains
the situation: "The big bell is
rung for about three minutes at
the approximate time of the per
son's funeral. The bell has to
be hand tolled since it usually
operates on a time-clock sys
tem.". Fearrington said the bell is
set once and will ring at cer
tain times throughout the week.
"It rings at ten minutes before
the hour and on the hour to
signal class change," he said.
"It also rings to signal when
the girls are supposed to be in
at night."
Fearrington said that he had
rung the bell many times dur
ing the past. 40 years but he said
he doesn't do it anymore. .
"I'm too old and that bell
isn't getting any lighter."

JFK Calls For US-USSR Moon Trip At UN
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
(UPI) President Kennedy made
a dramatic bid today for a joint
U.S.-Russian expedition to the
moon and other cooperative
space projects in order to elimin
ate "immense duplications of re

18th General Assembly of the
United Nations, which opened

wisdom of making man's first
flight to the moon "a matter of
national competition." He noted
that all members of the United

United States, already have waiv

Spearman Calls
Trial Program

Total Success"
' By HUGH STEVENS
A shortage of funds will pre
vent the Intramural Department
from continuing its program" of
paid dormitory intramural man
agers this year.
This announcement was made
yesterday by Tom Johnson, di
rector of the Intramural Office.
Bob Spearman, student body
vice-president, expressed con
cern at having to abandon a
program which he colled "a com
plete success.". "Student govern
ment will make every effort to
see that the program is contin
ued," he said.
In 1962-63, Student Government
provided funds to establish a
system of paid managers for
dorms with money taken from
student fees. The program was
set up for one year on an ex
perimental basis. An agreement
was suggested by Student Gov
ernment whereby the university
might assume financial respon
sibility for the program if it
was successful.
"The program was an unquali
fied success," Johnson said yes
terday, "but wc were simply
told that ' funds were not aval
able." He gave statistics taken from
a report issued by the intramur
al office at the end of the fall
semester last year. The figures
show that 792 of the 2966 eligible
dormitory residents participated
in intramurals during the semes
ter. This was a participation
rate of 32, an increase of more
than 10 over the previous year.
At the conclusion of the school
year, eligible dorm residents
totaled 2054, of whom 902 had
participated in intramurals dur
ing the year.
"This gave us a participation
rate of 44 for the year," John
son said, "an increase of 7
over 1961-62."
He said that Teague, Craige,
and Ehringhaus dorms were not
included in the statistics since Tea
gue was a graduate dorm in 1961-
62 and the new dorms were not
built. He said also that the de
partment was unable to secure
competent persons to act as man
agers for Craige and Ehring
haus last year.
"The number of teams entered,
355, represents an increase of 41
over the previous year," John
son said. "The whole campus,
including fraternities, dorms, and
grad students, had a participa
tion rate of 53 last year, an
increase from 48 the year be
fore. Most of this increase we
attribute to greater participation
in dormitories."
Johnson said that the intramur
al managers were paid a total of
$171.50 each, and the total cost
to Student Government for th
program was $3,555.50. The rc-
