discuss the topic, "Problems in
American Medicine," chosen as
this year's theme.

area debated by high school stu
dents throughout the United
States. This weekend's conference

the various ways in which to
debate the topic and will provide
a forum for an exchange of ideas.
Delegates will arrive today, will
be welcomed to the campus by

Newsday Editor Urges
Compensatory Education
Mark Ethridge, speaking to
the North Carolina School
Boards Association in Memorial
Hall Wednesday, made a strong
plea for "compensatory educa
tion" for "environmentally han
dicapped." "We must help the child who
comes from a poor environ
ment," he said. "They often fail
to receive the stimulation which
children of higher-income fami
lies get, and for this reason they
are at a great disadvantage
when entering school.
"Educators are now saying
that schools have a responsibil
ity for making special efforts
for the environmentally handi
capped," said the former chair
man of the board of the Louis
ville Courier-Journal.
Ethridge is presently a mem
ber of the UNC School of Journ
alism, serving temporarily as
editor of the Long Island, N. Y.
Newsday.
In urging the new program,
Ethridge recognized a shrinking
market for unskilled labor, a
situation that leads to vicious
competition with radical over
tones. "The confrontation of low in
come white with low income Ne
gro for increasingly meager op
portunities for work is the stuff
of which bloody conflict is made.
"The Negro is being squeezed
as perhaps never before by the
shrinkage of farm and unskilled
work. In fee scramble for the
remaining work, his white coun
terparts are winning out," Eth
ridge seid.
However, he added, "In this
time of racial clash and con
flict, it is too easy to lose sight
of this larger crisis of the un
dereducated. Perhaps the real
meaning of the Negro revolt we
have been facing is to be found
in this condition.
"The issue, therefore, is by no
means a Negro question alone.
It is a question of the kind of
life which millions of Americans
will lead regardless of racial,
ethnic or regional origin.
one of the top debating teams in
the nation UNC.
Under the direction of Dr. Don
ald K. Springen, the Carolina
debate team has been acclaimed
as "one of the best five teams in
the east." In their first meet,
UNC finished in a tie with Duke
for second place. The tournament,

Washington and Lee and attract

"We have a limited budget
which greatly hampers our work,"
said Springen, "but the boys have

and I'm sure that this team will
be just as good."

1965, "will be the most contempo
rary building on the entire cam

Manager George Prillaman.
Prillaman and his associates

North Carolina's controversial
Speaker Ban Law "does not ac

journalist Mark Ethridge said
Wednesday.
In a television interview fol
lowing his address to the 500

Ethridge said, "The University
is a place of education, and you
don't have freedom of education
when you proscribe anyone from

Di Phi: 'End
Vietnam Aid'
The Di-Phi Senate voted 8-2
Tuesday to end U.S. monetary
aid to South Vietnam.
The resolution favored a with
drawal of aid unless democratic
reforms in the Diem government
were made immediately.
Those favoring complete with
drawal argued that American
support of the oppressive Diem
regime would hurt U.S. prestige
among the Vietnamese. Also, the
present policy violates the Gene
va Conference Decisions of 1954.
Others held that withdrawal of
all aid would leave South Viet
nam open to Communist domina
tion. Further, it would violate
the Southeast Asia Collective De
fense Treaty of 1954 which
pledged U.S. support to the Diem
government against any armed
aggression.
Opposing views on whether
American financial and military
aid should be stopped entirely
were compromised in the bill.
The resolution was voted upon
after being amended twice
through lengthy parliamentary
wrangling. It was passed by the
chamber, 16-4.
New members, Jim Harris and
Abdo Bardawil, were inducted
into the Society following the debate.
Debaters
team to the tune of $2,100.
"As far as I can tell, Carolina
: is the only debate team to be
supported just by student govern
ment money," Springen com
mented. "Most of the other schools
are backed at least in part by
their administrations."
The administrations at Wake
Forest and Duke each support
their team heavily, Wake getting
$10,000 and Duke $6,000. Caro
lina's money is used exclusively
for traveling expenses, and none
goes for salaries.
The members of the team miss
some 15 days of class during the
year, more than any athletic
team. Springen must accompany
the team wherever it goes, as he
has no assistant and each entry
' must provide a judge.
"There are two divisions in the
American Forensic Association
varsity and novice," said Spring
en. "Anyone who has never par
ticipated in intercollegiate de
bate is eligible for the novice
team, no matter what year they
are in school.
"We have about 26 students on
the novice team this year and
12 on the varsity. Six of the
varsity are members of Delta
Sigma Rho, the national honor
ary debating fraternity."
Informal debates are being held
three nights a week in order that
Springen may select his best
four novice debators for next
week's tournament at Wake For
est, which will attract some 75
teams, including Northwestern,
Dartmouth and Harvard.
"We can't afford to take more
lounge on the first level and an
efficient system of "scrambled"
serving lines, said to increase
food-serving time by 250 per cent.
A maximum of 3,000 students can
be served at each meal, said
Prillaman. The new cafeteria will
have a seating- capacity of 1.063
as compared with the 900 seats
of Lenoir Hall's combined facili
ties. A nine-story, 925-man residence
hall will be constructed on the
south side of the campus at a
cost of $2,544,000, in anticipation
of a sharp increase in University
enrollment in the near future.
The building will have space for
a lounge and a library-study
room and will resemble Craige
and Ehringhaus Dormitories in
design.
A 60,000 sq. ft. undergraduate
library will be built adjacent
to Lenoir Hall on the site now
occupied by Bingham Annex. The
Undergraduate Room of the Wil
son Library is not meeting the
needs of undergraduate study,
Branch said, in explanation of
the project. Open bookstacks will
make materials readily avail
able for use by the undergradu
ate, he said.
Renovation and partial air
conditioning of the bookstacks,
Technical Processes Room and
Social Science Reading rooms of
the Wilson Library are already
under way.
In order to provide facilities for
social and service organizations
that Graham Memorial cannot
capacitate, a new $2,000,000 Stu
dent Union will be constructed.
In addition to study rooms,
recreation facilities, and meet
ing rooms, the new building will
feature a bookstore, a postal sub
station and a snack bar.
The total area of the present
hospital and school of medicine
facilities will be more than
doubled by the addition of a
215,000 sq. ft. Ambulatory Pa
tient Care Center and a develop
ment center for emotionally dis
turbed children. Plans for these
additions are still in the pre
liminary stage, Branch reported.
The lack of an auditorium
large enough to seat a majority
of the student body has long
been a drawback to the Univer
sity, Branch said in explanation
of a proposed 65,500 sq. ft. ad
dition to Woollen Gym. The ad
dition will be an auditorium
capable of seating 9000 persons
and will more ably provide the
lecture and entertainment facili
ties now served through Memo
rial Hall.
Extensive expansion renovation
and improvements are being
made in Wilson Hall for Zoology,
Davie Hall for Psychology, Mac
Nider Hall for Public Health, and
Old Philips Hall for math and
physics. Plans include the air
conditioning of new classrooms
and more modern laboratory fa
cilities. The University Booketeria, now
in the basement of Steele Hall,
will be relocated in a new $500,

only stay over one night in order
to cut down expenses," comment
ed Springen.
The team had 65 invitations
this year, but has only been able
to accept nine due to lack of
expense money. The first meet
(the one at Davidson was just
for practice) will be held at Sou
th Carolina Nov. 7-9. The team
will journey to New York Uni
versity, Harvard, Annapolis and
West Point before the year is
out.
Haywood Clayton, a senior from
Mooresville, is the president and
unquestionably the top debator.
He has received the coveted "ex
cellent debator" award at sev
eral meets, and has been on the
first team since his sophomore
year. George Carson of Elkin is
the vice-president, Charles Hea
therly of Candler serves as sec
retary and Dick Brodeur of
Clearwater, Fla., is the treasur
er. The novice team has five sched
uled debates, their longest trip
being to Randolph Macon. Other
meets will be held at Davidson,
Wake Forest, Appalachian State
College in Boone and Duke.
The Duke-Carolina rivalry is
just as, strong . in debate as in
football and basketball. The two
schools annually dominate the

year at South Carolina in Jan
uary. "But this may be our year,"
said Springen. "Duke is just one
small obstacle on the way to the
national championship."

Some $1,380,000 in additions
will be made to the outmoded
heating and steam piping sys
tems of the University. The ad

better heating service for the en-
tire campus.
Branch said that less than half
of the total cost of the 14-point
project will be provided by the
State. He said that a raise in
tuition will be necessary to make
the remainder of the cost self
liquidating to the University.
Rusk Will Ease Fears
Caused By The 'Big Lift'
WASHINGTON (UPD Secre
tary of State Dean Rusk left here
Thursday for a three-day visit
to Germany during which he
hopes to ease fears there that
the United States may be plan
ning significant troop withdrawals
from Europe.
Rusk meets Friday in Bonn
with the new chancellor, Ludwig
Erhard, and is also scheduled to
call on former Chancellor Kon
rad Adenauer. Officials said he
hopes to convince the Germans
that the United States, despite
some indications to the contrary,
has no intention of reducing its
combat strength in Europe.
Rusk, his aides said, also plans
to stress this theme in a major
address Sunday in Frankfurt,
where he will participate in
ceremonies honoring the late
Gen. George C. Marshall.
The secretary left for New
York early in the afternoon and
was scheduled to depart from
New York's Idlewild Airport at
11 p.m. EDT. Earlier in the eve
ning he gave an off-the-record
talk to a group of New York
businessmen. Thursday afternoon
he delivered an address at the
dedication of a new building in
New York for the Institute of In
ternational Education.
In his dedicatory speech, Rusk
stressed the importance of stu
dent and teacher exchanges be
tween nations. He said they help
build "the world of peace, jus
tice and fraternal friendship en
visaged by the United Nations
charter."
He said there were 64,000 for
eign students in the United States
this year and by 1970 the num
ber may increase to 120,800.

TEACHER EXAMS
College seniors planning to
teach may take the National
Teacher Examinations February

ing Service.
Scores on the Examinations are
used by many school districts for
employing new teachers, and by

ficates, or licenses.
Opera
Concert
Tonight
The University's newly formed
"Opera Workshop" will give its
first public performance
at a concert sponsored by the
North Carolina Music Teachers
Association at Hill Hall Auditori
um at 8:30 p.m.
The Opera Workshop will per
form the second act of Verdi's
"La Traviata."
"We are performing this act
because it is a wonderful vehicle
for three splendid singing actors
and because it has such a wealth
of fine solo and ensemble num
bers in it," said Wilton Mason,
professor of music and director
of the Opera Workshop.
Rebecca Carnes of Chapel Hill
will portray the soprano role of
Violetta. In the tenor role of Al
fredo Germont will be Wayne
Zarr of the UNC Music Depart
ment, the new director of both
the University Chorus and the
Chapel Hill Choral Club. This
will be Mr. Zarr's first singing
appearance since he has been
here.
Burt Adams of Chapel Hill will
portray the baritone role of Gior
gio Germont, father of Alfredo.
Mr. Adams did this same role
when a full performance of the
opera was given here in 1961
with Phyllis Curtin in the leading
role of Violetta.
Others in the cast will include
Martha Gibbs of Greensboro and
Joe Turpin of Hickory.
The performance will be stag
ed complete with costumes. The
members of the cast have been
spending the past three weeks
in rehearsal for the performance.
The next performance of the
newly formed Opera Workshop
will be in January when the
workshop will perform Hinde
mith's modernistic, comic opera,
"Hin und Zuruck," and "The
Lowland Sea," a modern Ameri
can opera based on folk themes
by Alec Wilder.
Jn addition to the performance
. by r -the Opera Workshop, - the.
NCMTA-sponsored concert will
also feature a performance by
the North Carolina String Quar
tet, and a performance by Eu
gene Mauney, organist of St.
Stephens Episcopal Church at
Goldsboro.
The concert is open to the pub
lic, without charge.
Rusk discussed some of the
things he hoped to accomplish in '
Germany.
He told newsmen at Washing
ton Airport here, "I will explain
to the Germans that we are fully
meeting our NATO commitments
and intend to do so. And I hope
very much that all other mem
bers will do so too."
Asked whether he would spe
cifically reassure Chancellor Er
hard and other officials that the
United States plans no early cut
back of U.S. forces in Germany,
Rusk replied, "I don't think any
reassurance is necessary. Look
ious to lay at rest German fears
at what we've got there."
The State Department is anx
on the question of American
military strength in Europe be
fore Erhard comes here in late
November for talks with Presi
dent Kennedy.
The need for clarification of
U.S. policy first arose after a
Saturday speech by Deputy De
fense Secretary Roswell L. Gil
patric in which he indicated
troop reductions were in pros
pect. He told a Chicago meeting of
United Press International edi
tors that in the future the Unit
ed States "should be able to
make useful reduction in its over
seas military expenditures."
German official and press con
cern sparked by this speech wras
intensified this week by the "Big
Lift" exercise in which an ar
mored division was flown from
the United States to Germany
within three days. This aroused
speculation that U.S. forces in
Germany and elsewhere in Eu
rope would be cut back since
troops could quickly be sent from
the North American continent in
an emergency.
The State Deartment already
has explained to the German
government that Gilpatric's re
marks, which were approved by
the White House over State De
partment objections, foresha
dowed only small "readjust
ments" in troop strength which
might become possible through
technological advances which in
crease firepower.

Fugitive
Gives Up
A former Carrboro resident,
who has been sought for simple
assault in connection with hit
ting a Student Peace Union pick
eter last April 11 walked into the
Chapel Hill police station yester
day and gave himself up.
According to Police Chief W. D.
Blake, Roy Lee Merritt came in
with his father and surrendered
to police. The assault charge has
been pending against him six
months.
Merritt allegedly walked up to
Paul Hutzler, an SPU member
who was participating in the
picketing of the College Cafe, and
struck at him.
Hutzler avoided the blow, Blake
said, and Merritt hit Hutzler's
sign. Neither was injured.
Merritt was arrested at the
scene by Police Lt. C. E. King.
As King was walking Merritt to
the police station, Merritt broke
loose and ran.
Police said that Merritt has
been out of town since the inci
dent, but couldn't be extradited.
Simple assault isn't covered by
extradition proceedings.
Merritt is in his early 20's and
has a record of misdemeanors,
police said.
He was released on $50 bond. He
will be fried in Chapel Hill Re
corder's Court October 23.

Plan Meeting
With Trustees
On Monday
By PETE WALES
Several past Student Govern
ment officials have expressed
their strong reaction and a spec
ial meeting of the subcommittee
of the Visiting Committee of
the Board of Trustees has been
announced concerning the re
cently announced changes in the
judicial review board.
Student Body President Mike
Lawler announced at a meet
ing of student leaders yesterday
that Frank M. Parker, chairman
of the subcommittee of the Visit
ing Committee of the Board of
Trustees, will contact members
of the subcommittee for a spec
ial meeting Monday at 2:30 p.m.
or one hour after the regular
meeting of the Committee.
Hill Yarborough, chairman of
the full Committee, will an
nounce the special meeting Mon
day morning at the regular
meeting end will request the full
Committee's attendance.
The special meeting will be
an executive session. No news
of the proceedings will be re
leased unless Parker or Yar
borough consent.
"This is in no way to be in
terpreted as an appeal or peti
tion to the Visiting Committee,"
Lawler said. "But we feel that
the pattern of events is of suf
ficient gravity that the trustees
should be aware of student atti-
j tudes.
"I am extremely appreciative
of the deep concern of men like
these for the University and the
forum that they have provided
for the expression of student
concern."
In other discussion at the stu
dent meeting, Vice-President
Bob Spearman pointed out that
the faculty committee's basis
for the changes was the "full
and final authority" clause of
the University Administration
Code, approved by the Trustees
in 1957.
The Administration, Spearman
said, interpreted this clause as
an organic change in the rela
tion between Administration and
students.
"However, we feel that this
clause was not a change but a
clarification. The purpose was
to cut off appeals going to the
Chancellor and the Governor.
"We feel that the same tradi
tions of mutual cooperation still
apply."
