NOVEMBER 5, 1963 ' 1 ' - TTE- - rg- - i i i ii United Press International Service Today cers Wm Iter WW Law School Dean ; By HUGH STEVENS It was learned here yesterday that Henry P. Brandis, Jr., dean of. the UNC Law School, plans to step down from his post at the end of this year. Brandis, reached at his home late yesterday, refused to con firm or deny the report, conf in ' ing himself to "no comment." .Reliable sources here discount ed rumors that Chancellor Ay cock may be leaving his current post to assume this one, since Aycock has made clear his de sire to completely disassociate himself from administrative du ties, at least for a few years. Brandis assumed his post in 1949, after serving on the Law School faculty for nine years. His services have been much in demand in regard to state and national commissions studying legal matters and on the home front he has been much respect ed for his outspoken views on many matters ' of controversial nature over which some in the academic community choose to remain silent. In 1959, Dean Brandis resigned from the Chapel Hill because the board refused to accept the application of a Negro to an all white school. He has also de fended the members cf the fac ulty in their position on academic freedom, saying that academic I Meet The Candidates 7T" TTTD. - m fl m m : i .The . University . Party candi dates for freshman class offices are: Sam Kellett, president; Mickey Gamble, vice-president; Susie Warren, secretary; Ken Traub, treasurer; and Maureen Shannon, social chairman. Sam Kellett attended West minister School in Atlanta, where he was captain of the football team and was chosen ' as "most valuable lineman". He is a member of the Young ' Republican Club and the Fel lowship of Christian Athletes at UNC. "Last year's freshman drop out rate was so alarmingly high that I am giving primary em ' phasis to the promotion of a studious atmosphere and the in auguration of two class organ ized academic programs," he said. "First, we shall have sch said. "First, we shall have scheduled review sessions with selected instructors the night before important quizzes. Sec ond, a Freshman Stnudy Coun ' cil will be organized to arrange for individual tutoring." ' "(My platform also plans to strengthen our class through strong extra-curricular and stu dent government participation. Mickey Gamble attended Lee Edwards High School in Ashe ville, where he was a member of the French and Latin Clubs and active in student govern ment. He attends UNC on an academic scholarship. "If our class is to be success ful, each member must be oriented through effective lead ership to use his abilities in the area where he is best suited," he said. "The scholars ' must have full details about "A" sections and honors pro grams; the athletes must know about the specific needs for them in the intramural and var sity programs; and the class mates with extra-curricular abDity should know about what they can do for the various or ganizations." Susie Warren was a member ' of the junior and senior prom committees at Needham Broughton High School in Ral eigh. She was active on the stu dent council. "Every day . freshman must know of the social, athletic and extra-curricular opportunities open to them, and it is impor tant that they be well informed s that they can select what is best suited to them, she said. , "I want to have a scheduled "Freshman Column" in the Daily Tar Heel, a regular news letter, and pamphlets on our projects and outstanding class ( Continued on Page Three May Step freedom is not dying, of neglect. He has stated that the Univer sity faculty is not afraid to speak, with the exception of a few "nervous nellies" who hesi tate to speak for what he calls "the wrong reasons." Brandis was born in Salisbury, Feb. 8, 1909, the son of a rail road worker. He graduated from Carolina in 1928 and won his LL.D. degree in 1931 from Col umbia University. He practiced law in New York City for two and one-half years, returning to North Carolina as associate director of the Insti tute of Government. In 1936-37 he was Instructor in Tax Admin istration with the University. From 1937 to 1939 he was secre tary of the State Tax Classifica Peahead Lacey, By MAT FRIEDMAN The New York Giants hope to draft two UNC players, end Bob Lacey and tackle Cole Kortner, The Daily Tar Heel learned Sat urday. Douglas C. ("Peahead") Wal- The Student Party candidates for freshman class offices are Jim Brame, president; John He drick, vice-president; Mary King, secretary, Jim Hubbard, treasur er; and Anne Clemmons, social chairman. JIM BRAME was president of his class for three years at Dur ham high school. He is president of the State DeMolay, was vice president of the State Student Council and a delegate to the National Student Council conven tion. He was also a member of the National Honor Society. "The goal of the SP candidates for freshman offices is to unify our class," he said. "We are presenting a unified platform which we think is realistic and workable. "We will try to achieve 'Pro gress through Unity' this year." JOHN HEDRICK was vice president of the senior class at Greensboro Senior High School, where he also served as vice president of the Service Club and was a member of various student government committees. Captain of the senior basketball team, he is a member of UNCs freshman team. "One of the methods of attain ing class unity is through class spirit, and the SP candidates pro pose to sponsor pep rallies and bus trips to games played away from home," he said. "In ad dition, we would organize a freshman talent show." MARY KING is immediate past Governor of Girls' State and serves as vice-president of the national organization. She was selected as "Best Ail-Around Student" at Greensboro Page High School, where she was also president of the Spanish Club, president of the Playmakers, a varsity cheerleader, junior and senior class president and a member of the swimming and tennis teams. She is a member of the 1963-64 Yack Court. "One of our ideas is to have a Freshman Weekend in the spring,' she said. "We would start off on Thursday night with a speaker, such as Dave Gard ner, have a hootenanny on Fri day night featuring a nationally known folksinging group and end the weekend with a dance with W.C. girls on Saturday night." JIM HUBBARD was an honor graduate of Rocky Mount High School. He was sports editor of the yearbook, lettered in tennis for three years, served as treas urer of the junior class and pres ident of the sophomore class and was runner-up in the election of governor of Boys State. "Of course, to have a success ful year we must have finances, and the SP candidates feel that (Continued on Page Three) Down tion Commission, and in 1939-40, he was chief of the Research Division of the State Dept. of Revenue. He joined the law faculty in 1940 as an assistant professor and rose to full professor of law in 1947. During World War II, Brandis served in the U. S. Naval Re serve, his tour of duty including Iwo Jima and Okinawa aboard the USS Texas. He returned to inactive duty as a Lt. Colonel. The reason for Brandis's resig nation apparently is that he will have served three five-year terms by the end of next spring, and custom dictates he hold the post no longer. He is expected, how ever, to stay on at the Law School as a professor. A fter Kortner ker, former coach at Wake For est and Yale and now a southern area scout for the NFL 'Eastern Conference champions, revealed at halftone of the UNC-Georgia game Saturday that he feels the two players are definitely pro fessional material. "We (the Giants) will draft Lacey and Kortner if we get a chance," he said. "Lacey has great moves and fine hands," commented Walker on the 6-3 205-pound end from Pelham, N. Y., "and he runs very well , after . he, catches the ball. He will probably be 'very high on the draft : list because several teams are interested ' in him." Although it has been assumed for some time that Lacey would be drafted by a professional team, the mention of Kortner came as something of a surprise. The six - foot 234-pounder from Greenwich, Conn., did not even come out for football until his sophomore year and was not a regular on the first unit at the start of this season. "Kortner is a real strong block er," said Walker, "and he looks real good on the line. I don't know if any other teams are in terested in him." Lacey has caught 28 for 306 yards so far this season. Last year, he set an ACC record with 668 yards on 44 catches and was a unanimous all-ACC pick. In addition to the two seniors, Walker named halfback Ken Wil lard, fullback Eddie Kesler, and end Frank Gallagher, all juniors, as possible future pro prospects. "Willard is a great runner," he said. "Kesler is a very good blocker and a fine runner even though he is not too fast. Gal lagher is a real fine defensive end. He rushes the passer well and is very quick." Walker also had high praise for the Tar Heels as a unit. "I think they definitely deserve to be rated in the top twenty," said a man who has seen prac tically every top team in the South. "They have a real fine ball club. I think the pass defense is real good and deserves to be up at the top. It is a combina tion of a fine rushing line and a good secondary. "If they go through the rest of the season without a defeat," he continued, "they should have a real fine chance of going to a bowl. The Duke game probably is the key one. It should give them the most trouble." Walker also expressed interest in two Georgia players, star quarterback Larry Rakestraw and end Mickey Babb. Even though they are not throwing to him today," Walker said, "Babb is a fine end." JUDICIAL The Judicial committee of Student Legislature will meet this afternoon at 4 p.m. in the Woodhouse Room of GM to dis cuss bills relating to the Stu dent Judiciary. . - Bills to be considered include the recommendations of penal ties vhich the Men's and Wom en's Councils may impose and also bills which would remove Article II of the Constitution dealing with the judicial system.

Night By JOEL BULKLEY Doug Tilden, a 20 year-old Uni versity student, was roughed up by several unidentified persons, apparently students, attending a joint DKE-Zete fraternity party at the DKE house Saturday night. Tilden received a black eye and a bloody nose from the encounter. The incident apparently stem med from the fact that Tilden went to the party with Kellis Parker, a Negro UNC student. Neither campus nor Chapel Hill Police, however, had any record of the incident. Tilden, who was reluctant to discuss the fracas, said he was struck several times then dragged to a back room where he was thrown onto a couch before being hustled out the door. DKE officials, Bill Davis, house president and Merrimen Gregory, social chairman, said they knew nothing of the incident but indi cated they would check into it. House Manager! Bill King said, "If it happened, we regret it. We don't know that it did but we're going to check into it." Tilden related the incident say ing he and Parker arrived at the party around midnight when Par ker joined in with the band play ing his trombone. . "A few minutes later," Tilden said, "a group of boys walked in to the party room and asked me to leave by way of the back room. Then another fellow walked up beside me, asked me if I was a .student and other personal ques tions like was I a friend of Kellis and was I his manager? . "Another fellow walked up and made, some derrogatory comment about Negroes in general. One fellow, who claimed he had hired the band, said something about me having a lot of gall to show up uninvited. I didn't understand what he was talking about since it was supposed to be an open house. A DKE spokesman Monday con firmed that the party had been an open house. Tilden continued, "The warning lights for coeds to leave flashed at 12:45 p.m. and I received a a few blows, a bloody nose, a black eye and a few blows to the stomach before being dragged to the back room. Someone threw me down onto a couch and said, 'when I say for you to leave, I expect you to do so. "I left the room, stood in the hall for a minute and then some people grabbed my arm. I shook them off and then said to Kel lis, who had stopped playing in the band by that time, let's leave. As we left two fellows followed us out to the porch and watched us leave." He added that he had lost his raincoat at the party. Tilden, said he had no plans to file a complaint with the Inter Fraternity Council. CUSC Backs Trustees On Ban Decision By HUGH STEVENS RALEIGH The Consolidated University Student Council, meet ing here Sunday night, unanimou-, sly backed the Board of Trustees by passing a strongly-worded res olution urging repeal of the Speaker Ban Law. The resolution says that the law is "inconsistent with the democratic principle of the free exchange of ideas in conjunction with critical inquiry in pursuit of truth." . The law, it states, "reflects ad versely on the aciministrative of ficials of state-supported colleges and universities and may do ir reparable harm to the academic excellence" of those institutions. In other business, Bob Spear man of Chapel Hill was appoint ed chairman of a committee to study arrangements for next year's CU Day at Chapel Hill. Other committees were set up to study constitutional revisions for the council, to work on a film of the Consolidated University and to set up a calendar of events among the three branches. It was also suggested that a revolv ing newspaper column be started to , exchange news among" the schools. The council's next meeting will be in Greensboro on Dec. 8.

Each voter will be required to show his ID card and have it stamped before he will be given a ballot. He will also be required to sign a pledge stating that he has not voted previously in this election and is voting at the proper polling station. Viola- 'Pretty Awful9 Says Morgan By PETER HARKNESS Prpsent radio and television nroeramming "is pretty awful," noted ABC network news com mentator, Edward P. Morgan, said Saturday. In an informal talk with a class in Radio, Television, Motion Pic tures 45, Morgan praised Newton Minow. past chairman of the Federal Communications Com mission for his criticism of ra dio and television. Reeardins the government's intervention into the mass media. Morgan said there was a legiti mate reason for the government s "sticking their nose in." He ex plained that stations must be licensed and therefore must set some sort of standards. He continued that a certain amount of government control 'is a danger that we have to face." "We must realize how much we of the industry have been short-changing the public," he said. "I would like to see radio and television stimulate more con troversy. Instead of taking Min- ow's criticism at face value, we became hostile. Morsan mentioned the ABC station in Raleigh. WRAL, as evidently being somewhat biased. Hp said he wondered why the public, especially the University, hadn't made their discontent known. "We must exert our individual rivo Before tions of this pledge will be con sidered Honor Code violations. All men end women dormitory residents will find ballot boxes in their dorms with the follow ing exceptions: Connor wen will vote in Winston, residents of Emerson Stadium Fieldhouse will in Ruffin, and Kenan wom en will vote in Mclver. Craige residents will be able to vote in their dorm or at the Men's Dormitory District I box in Y Court. The residents of Ehring haus will also be able to vote either in their dorm or at the Men's Dormitory District VII box in Y-Court. The residents of Town Men's District I (all town men stu dents residing in the area bounded by Columbia St. on the east, Cameron Ave. on the north, and the corporate limits of Chapel Hill on the west and south) will vote at the Carolina Inn or the Naval Armory. Residents of Town Men's Dis - trict II (all town men students residing in the area bounded by , Cameron Ave. on the .south, Co lumbia St. on the east, and the corporate limits of Chapel' Hill on the north and west and the city of Carrboro) will vote at the Scuttlebutt and their box in in Y-Court. The residents of Town Men's District III (all men students residing in the area bounded by Columbia Street on the west and the corporate limits of Chapel Hill on the north, south, and east) will vote at GM and their box in Y-Court. Residents of Town Men's Dis trict IV (all men students re siding in the area outside the corporate limits of Chapel Hill and Carrboro) will vote at their box in Y-Court.

It would be a very healthy situation if the pub lic would tackle this problem. I am discouraged that since Min ow's statements we have done so little to improve this situation." The newsman explained that sponsors will frequently change scripts. He said, "I have always felt it was ridiculous to let the manu facturer of some ladies' product become the drama critic of ra dio and television. "Improvement will be a trian gular sort of thing with a rising responsibility on the part of the broadcasters, a reaction from the public and an increase of interest from the government, which must be handled rather delicately." In a short question and answer period following the talk, Mor gan praised the televised debates in the 1960 Presidential campaign as "one of the best things that has happened to political demo cracy in a long time." When asked if he thought the people didn't approve of poor programming, Morgan said that broadcasters were still wrong. He said that they must lead a little bit rather than cater to public taste. He told another questioner that ABC could not tell Jesse Helms, WRAL-TV editorialist, what he should or should not say. He said that a network had no claim to what an affiliate did, only to those few stations that are own ed and operated by the network. n O "axiom Will Discuss Review Board By PETE WALES Three faculty and administra tion officials will appear before Student Legislature tonight con cerning the faculty decision two weeks ago to drop students from the Student-Faculty Re view Board. Dr. Gordon Cleveland, chair man of the Faculty Committee on Student Discipline, Dean of Men William Long and Dean of Student Affairs C. O. Cathcy will speak to the body and an swer questions. "The only discussion will be about the decision of the facul ty committee," said Bob Spear man, speaker of Legislature. "We will not concern ourselves with the Honor Council propo sals or any bills." Dean Cathey said yesterday that he would present some of the history of the Board, but CAUCUS There will be a joint UP-SP caucus tonight in the legislature hall in New East at 6 p.m. All legislators must be present. would leave discussion of the faculty decision to Dr. Cleveland. . '''Until- the decision, I wasn't sure of the problem," he added. Dean Long said he would have no formal presentation but would make himself available for questions. "Whether our positions are ac cepted or not, at least there will be better communication. "The inherent problem of the University has always been ex tremely poor communications." Both men mentioned that the students would be allowed to present their case at the next meeting of the Faculty Council, the first Friday in December. Dr. Cleveland was not avail able for comment. Two past presidents of the Student Body were contacted for their reactions to the faculty's decision. Eli "Sonny" Evans, president for the 1956-57 school year and now an attorney in Durham, ex pressed surprise at the change. "I haven't followed the prog ress of the Review Board since I left, but I've heard that it has been successful. "So if this decision represents any philosophical change to ward Student Government at Chapel Hill, I'm rather shock ed." Evans was under the impres sion that when the Board was created m 1956, it was done per manently and not as an experi ment. "That was Chancellor Ay- cock's first year in office," Evans recalled. "We were rather excited about the crea tion of the Board at the time because we felt that a new and progressive era had arrived in faculty-student relations. "The feeling at the time was that students, faculty and Ad ministration were to work to gether in a cooperative effort for the good of the University community. "Apart from that, the theory was that the Board was a step in the appeals process for the student who wanted to appeal an Honor Council decision. The Chancellor, of course, was the last resort." David Grigg, president for the 1960-61 school year and now in Duke Law School, questioned the wisdom of taking this out of the students' hands. "During my administration. there was strong faculty disap pointment with the Honor Coun cil. We were on excellent terms with the Administration, how ever. "We held consultations with both groups all during the year and made several changes., We did eway with the Student Coun cil and with the jury system. "These changes were partly due to faculty disappointment in the Honor System, but mostly (Continued on Page 3)
