Encounter Panel Hits Fraternities By JIM NEAL Social fraternities were ac cused of having detached them selves from the purposes of the University (Monday night on WUNC-TV's "Encounter." Dr. John Clayton, moderator of the weekly panel discussion show, noted the primary func tions of fraternities are social, and the purposes of the Universi ty are educational. Dr. Clayton backed up his charge saying fraternities clakn they have study halls and so forth, and claim they look for superior men. Yet their record in the Uni versity tends to show they are only about average, he said. This tends to show they are taking superior men and turning them into average men. Charlie Battle, president of the Interfraternity Council, count ered with the argument that jfraternlfies are social organ izations, and are not set up as promoters of scholarship.

His third is now at the publishers and will be released in the spring. said, "Scholarship is strictly an individual matter," and any kind of extracurricular activity can detract from study time. Clayton replied that all ex tracurricular activities hinder scholarship, but only fraternities claim to promote it with re quired study halls and the like. In another blow to the sys tem, Prof. Walter Spearman of the School of Journalism warn ed that fraternities can -not sur vive simply as social clubs, and said he looks forward to deferred rush to help solve some of the evils of the system.

Sum mer Internship Program in state government, yesterday urged all students interested in govern ment to apply for the 1964 pro gram. "The deadline for applications is this weekend," he said, "and I certainly hope no one will miss out on such a great opportunity." Hall, an Alexandria, Va., resi dent, applied for the program be cause he was "interested in gov ernment," and wound up working f last summer for the N. C. Pris ons Department. "It was even more exciting and informative than I had anticipat ed," he said. "I did not realize beforehand the amount or the importance of the work which we would be allowed to handle." Hall said that he and another intern worked on such projects as a re-evaluation of the work release program in N. C. prisons, and writing a training manual for the department. "We were treated as old-timers within the department," he said. "Our criticisms and opinions were considered and, in some places, applied to the department. "It was one of the most interest ing experiences I've ever had," Hall said. "We had students from all fields, not just Political Science or History. I don't think that the selection committee is looking just for brains, but rath er for above - average students with a fresh approach who are willing to work, and who are in terested in the future of North Carolina. "One of the highlights of the summer was a trip all over the state in which we talked with department employees concern ing the work release system, whereby prisoners work in the daytime and return to their cells at night.

New sets would be bought through the UNC Purchasing Department. The Faculty Committee resolu tion, sponsored by Neal Jackson, urges "further student partici pation" in such groups as the Faculty Committee on Honors and the iBuildings and Grounds Committee. Bob Spearman, legislative Jspeaker, said student leaders feel that ex-officio participation in such committees is important. "We have made extensive ef forts to have students placed on - faculty ' committees so that their views may foe heard," he said, "but so far the faculty ' is unwilling to include students." , The Building and Grounds committee, Spearman said, "de cides on sites for new parking lots, residence halls, and other "construction, but there is no student representation in the group." "We think the student voice .is important, and should be heard," he concluded. The body will consider a reso lution by Don Carson to name UNC's new 975-man residence hall "John F. Kennedy Hall." New legislators Mike Chanin and Hugh Wilson will be formally sworn in tonight, and Spear man will report on the recent resolution calling for the creation of an ad hoc committee "to af firm the principles of Student Government." Cusick, 3 Others On Trial Today Trial of appeals by four persons convicted on charges resulting from anti-segregation protests last summer is set for 9:30 a.m. today in Orange County Superior Court. Pat Cusick, Christine Glover, Mrs. Peter Van Ripper, Charlie Cotton and 11 others were con victed in August in Chapel Hill Recorder's Court. Floyd McKis sick, defense attorney for the Chapel Hill Committee for Open Business (COB), filed notice of appeal for twelve Negroes and three whites. They were convicted of trespassing, obstructing traffic and blocking the sidewalk during a demonstration July 19. Following the trial it will be decided whether the appeals of the others will be heard this week or at the next term of court be ginning Feb. 24. The trial this morning was set for Wednesday but was continued until a jury could be selected. The four are being tried for sit ins and marches held this sum mer. One sit-in at the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Merchants' Bureau occurred two weeks after the COB had staged its largest pro test march of nearly 500 persons. The COB has since been replac ed by Citizens United for Racial Equality and Dignity (CURED). GASKTN TO SPEAK HERE Professor James R.

Adams was formerly the party's Sergeant-at-Arms. , In his acceptance speech, Ad ams called for more party sup port for the programs and can didates. "The UP is a party of action and we hope , to make it even more active in student affairs7 he said. "We feel that we can give better representation to the students and will make a great effort to capture more seats in legislature during the spring elec tions." Two proposals were unanimous ly adopted by the body. The first endorsed the actions of the President and Vice-President of the Student Body in their efforts to reinstate students on the Faculty Judicial Review Board. The second, introduced by Bo Edwards, endorsed the efforts of the IFC in its attempts to gain social privileges for bull pledges and inactives. The proposal also endorsed the deferred rush which will start next year.

By PETER PAN The sky will fall late Saturday night in a late, late, late show, featuring Chicken Little and the Geminids. The combo will be at its best from 3-6 a.m. Saturday morning, after a Friday night warm-up. That night a meteor shower will sprinkle the sky with lumin ous streaks moving as fast as 45 miles per second. The sight is worth watching. Actually, the Geminids, as the December 13 meteor shower is named, will start at about 10 p.m. the night of December 13. But because of the Earth's mo tion, the time between 3 and 6 a.m. is the best for watching meteors. Meteor showers are best visible between 3 and 6 a.m. because at that time North Carolina is on the leading side of the Earth as it whirls around the &un Con pending on delivery of steel or ders. The tremendous engineering problem of roofing a span about 300 by 200 feet has been solved by what is known in engineering circles as a compression ring above and a tension ring below. The steel compression ring, 24 feet in diameter, will support steel and concrete arms, the longest of vhich will be about 160 feet. The arms will be con nected to steel and concrete up rights around the outer edge of the auditorium. The lower ends of the uprights will be connected by 2V2 -inch cables to a steel ring 16 feet in diameter under the auditorium floor. Thus, the up rights' pull on the tension ring equals the arm's push on the compression ring, supporting the roof. The auditorium, which will f WW. 12, 1963 Parade Promotes kt Tj) .... Voter Registration a t 1-T i j 1 1 i rr i:f t I l i: A A torchlight parade and other plans to promote voter registra tion among the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Negro population were an nounced at a public meeting Mon day night. John B. Dunne, local organizer of the registration campaign, and Shelten Sparrow, member of the County Elections Board, discussed the coming elections and answer ed questions concerning the voter registration drive at a meeting at Orange Savings and Loan. According to Mr. Dunne, the campaign will b e conducted through three different communi cation channels in order to, reach all members of the community: communication,' ' through organi zation, and door-to-door. "We hope to reach the mass of people by passing out leaf lets in the churches and by giv ing out leaflets for children to take home from school," said Mr. Dunne. "Also we hope to have a torchlight parade, complete with a band and speakers, the night before the registration books open. "There are also plans to use the Negro and white church or ganizations. We hope the Negro churches and various fraternal organizations will stress the im portance and significance of vot ing and registering. We are also looking for volunteers to do pap erwork, typing and many other odd jobs and we hope that many of the local white organizations will help us in getting the campaign organized. "We have divided the Negro community into five major areas for door-to-door canvassing. Each area will be headed by a cap tain and will be divided into four sections. The sections win con tain 15-20 houses and each will be headed by a chairman. We hope that every eligible voter will be personally contacted and reminded to register. Babysitting and transportation services will be provided, so there is no rea son anyone can't register." sequently, Earth and meteoroids are mostly likely to converge during that time, giving the me teoroids better opportunity to be come meteors, possibly even to achieve the ultimate triumph of meteoritehood. Geminids, so named because the point in space from which it seems to originate roughly corresponds with the position of of the heaviest meteor showers the constellation Gemini, is one scheduled for 1963. Single ob servers have spotted as many as fifty streaks of light slicing the sky in one hour from Geminids. And (assuming the sky is clear that night), Geminids will be the better for the fact that there is no moon that night. GUNGUS HO! The Communications Commit tee will meet Thursday at 4 p.m. in the Grail Room. The Yack photo will be taken at the time. A business meeting will follow contain 6,500 permanent theater type seats in a three-quarter bowl arrangement facing the existing Woollen Gym, will displace the present east Woollen parking lot and one of the five playing fields laid out on intramural field. En trance to the building will be from the street, and from the east side, with service entrances in the rear. If bleachers are erected on the west side of the auditorium, its total seating ca pacity will be near 10,000. The structure has been designed so that no spectator will be farther than 88 feet from the playing floor. There will also be a stage in the auditorium, for other func tions besides basketball games, such as plays, speeches, and in door commencement exercises. The auditorium floor will be about eleven feet below the pres ent east Woollen parking lot lev United To qualify for registration, a voter must have lived in the State for one year and in his precinct for 30 days. A iteracy test will be given at the discretion of the registrar. New registrants will be urged to name party affilia tion at the time of registration. Voters who register as independ ents may not vote in the party primaries. Racial Protests Will Continue In Danville DANVILLE, Va. A Negro in tegration leader said Wednesday anti - segregation protests would continue at downtown theaters and restaurants here despite a fair employment practices clause enacted by the City Council Tues day night. The Rev. L. W. Chase of the Danville Christian Progressive Association said "The Negro has made one step further in being included in the democratic pro cess at Danville." But, he added that demonstrations would con tinue at facilities where nine persons were arrested Tuesday. Chase said the council's em ployment amendment, approved by a 5-3 vote, was the result of meetings between the races held during the past three weeks. "We talked over the problem of hiring practices and asked if they would spell out in writing that hiring at City Hall would be conducted on the basis of merit and not color." The clause, which amends the city's hiring ordinance, provides that "employment and promo tions shall not be refused on the basis of race, creed or color." "We still have nothing, how ever, in the way of assurances that segregation of facilities will be ended," Chase said. Big Daddy Hits Town By DAVID KNESEL Burl Ives fans can expect to see their folk-singing idol in the Chapel Hill-Durham area "for some time to come." This was revealed Tuesday morning in an interview at Chez Kemp, which Ives "just wanted to look over." Ives, who is over six feet, would stand out in any crowd. He's huge. His heavy black cardigan bluged at the buttons. His silver goatee bobbed up and down as he talked. He wore a leather cap with a visor and woolen ear flaps. "I'm here to lose weight," he said. "I'm on this rice diet, under the care cf Dr. Kemp ner at Duke Hospital. This diet is largely mental. If you set s' your mind like , '' a clock you x can do it. I'm vi'Jhere to go the distance. When J ' the big boss ' ' . ' (KemDner) sas rliv, . sed Oriental (Continued on Page Three) to quit, I quit." W3 Kemp gave him a "man- el, opening into the locker rooms underneath the present varsity basketball court. The roof will be completely closed in to pro vide optimum light conditions for television coverage of activities in the auditorium. The whole auditorium will al most completely hide the present east side of Woollen Gym, con nected to Woollen by expansion joints with a tolerance of about three inches. Mr. Stewart has already re ceived nine bids for the general contract, from one South Caro lina and eight North Carolina construction companies. The other six contracts for the job are for electricity, heating and ventilation, plumbing, a sound system, elevators, and seating. Mr. Stewart started working on the plans for the building last February. Today9 s Weather Cloudy and Colder???? Press International Service Discussion Features SP Meet Tuesday Two members of a Student Party panel Tuesday night agreed that the number of class officers should be reduced. A third mem ber felt that they should be abol ished altogether. "Class elections are simply popularity contests," said Arthur Hays, the panelist who advocated the abolition of class officers. Hays, a member of Student Leg islature, said that class activi ties did not bring students into the mainstream of student gov ernment "where they could real ly be effective." "The reduction of class officers would allow the top people to run lor office and would convince people that class officers need not be tlgurcheads," Hays concluded. Woody Harrison, senior class vice-president, commented that class officers are the only sroun that can promote class unity and class identification. "Neither class activities nor the YMCA could be described as directly affecting student government, but they serve valuable purposes nonetheless for the students that participate in them," he stated. The office of Social Chairman serves no obvious function and could be eliminated," Harrison said. He felt, however, that at least four officers were necessary for the class cabinet to function. Bill Aycock also favored the re duction of class officers. Aycock, sophomore class president of the class of '65, felt that class officers could be reformed by cutting down the number to two or three and by co-ordinating their activities through the inter-class cabinet. The three panelists agreed that finances were the major problem facing the class officers. "They are just like four hungry dogs fighting over a bone that has been gnawed clean," Arthur Hays put it graphically. Also at the meeting, SP Chair man Neal Jackson formally an nounced his resignation as party chairman. TV Show Needs Live Audience WUNC's hootenanny radio show needs a live audience. Kent Evans, host for the pro gram and director of special events for WUNC, feels that a great deal of favorable reac tion has been generated by the Tuesday night series, but a lack of adequate publicity has caused tlie shortage of live spec tators. The hootenanny series was initi ated this fall, and draws talented folksingers from the UNC cam pus and the Chapel Hill area. So far nearly 20 different perform ers have appeared and most cf them more than once. Jim Opton, frequently a fea tured performer on the show, feels that there are many talent ed UNC students who still haven't appeared on the eir yet. "It would help the popularity cf many groups in the area if they would just take time the time to come in and tape a show." he said. Evans indicated that next semester the show might travel to individual living units to make their tapes. "This way we would be assured of getting a better crowd," he added. 1
