Big S
Senators To Air
Districting Tiff
In Debate Here
Two veteran State Senators
will debate the pros and cons of
the so-called "Little Federal
Plan" for redisricting the State
Senate, here Tuesday night.
Sen. Robert Lee Humber of
Greenville, who represents Pitt
County, speaks for the plan
while Sen. Richard Long of Rox
boro, who represents Durham,
Granville and Person counties,
is opposed.
Senate redisricting was one
of the hottest issues of the 1963
General Assembly. Legislators
were unable to see eye-to-eye on
the problem during the regular
sersicn and Gov. Terry Sanrord
called a special session in Octo
ber. It was during this session that
the Little Federal Plan was
bcrn. In order for the plan to be
adopted a constitutional amend
ment will have to be approved
by the State's voters. Both those
who favor and these who op
pose the plan have been mar
shalling their forces since Oc
tober to w:.n support to their
cause at the polls.
If the amendment is adopted,
membership of the House of
Representatives will be dropped
frccn its present 120 members
to 100, with one representative
from each county, and member
ship of the Senate will be in
creased from 50 to 70. Oppo
nents of the measure claim it
will give control of the legisla
ture to rural Eastern counties
and therefore populous Pied
mont counties will not get their
fair share of representation.
The debate, sponsored by the
UNC Young Democratic Club,
will get under way in Gerrard
Hall at 8 p.m. Tuesday.
Humber and Long are both
prominent attorneys. Humber
graduated from Wake Forest
College and the Wake Forest Law
'School. He was a Rhodes Schol
ar -at Oxford University, earned
his Master -of Arts degree at Har
vard University, where he later
taught, and studied at the Uni
versity of Paris.
He had a career as a lawyer
and business executive in Paris
from 1930 to 1940. He was chair
man of the State Art Commission
from 1951 through 1961 and ser
ved in the State Senate during
the 1959, 1901 and 1963 sessions.
Long graduated from Duke Uni
versity and the Vanderbilt Uni
versity Law School. He served
on the State Utilities Commis
sion from 1958 through 1960 and
sat in the State Senate during the
1957 and 19S3 sessions. He is a
director of the Roxboro Cotton
Mills, The Peoples Bank and the
Reinforced Plastic Container
Corp. in Roxboro, where he prac
tices law.

Students Hopping
Mad Over Seating
By JOHN GREENB ACKER
And HUGH STEVENS
Student opinion ranged from a
slow burn to sheer outrage yes
terday in light of an announce
ment that most student tickets
for the Gator Bowl will be in
the end zone.
A majority of male comments
were unprintable, arid coed re
actions were hardly less vicious.
"I think it is the dirtiest, nas
tiest, most conniving, most un
derhanded trick possible," a
Spencer Hall resident said.
Her reaction was echoed by the
majority of students questioned
on the matter.
"I don't mind sitting in the end
zone so much as the fact that
someone apparently tried to pull
the wool over our eyes by not
telling us about it before," a
junior remarked.
"Did the University know
about this beforehand?" was a
typical question.
Some knocked the Gator Bowl
officials.
"I think it is a poor policy on
the part of the Gator Bowl," a
sophomore said. "Some of us
are spending $100 or more to see
this game. That's a lot of mon
ey, and it's not worth it now."
Many wondered why the visit
ing students weren't given spec
ial consideration.
"I think the schools playing
should have priority," another
coed said.
"We are the host team; it's
unfair to us. Is there any reason
for it are these the only seats
available?"
"Are we to assume that Air
Force got the end zone, too?"
The announcement has appar
ently changed the plans of many

She was sentenced to two week's

"I've been to every game ex
cept the one at Michigan State,"
one junior said. "I'm not going
to. this one because of the. seats,
and there are lots more like me."
"I was going to go," said an
other student, "but now I'm just
as happy in staying home and
watching it on TV."
Some students were particular
ly inconvenienced by the news.
"I bought a block of ten tickets
so my friends could sit together,"
a student complained. "Two of
them canceled out yesterday, and
I really can't balme them."
The first action most stu
dents could do in protest was ex
pressed hy a junior. "The only
way students can effectively pro
test the seating is to ask for re
funds on the tickets."

3 More Arrested
As Race Protests
Continue Here
" Three people including one
UNC student were arrested yes
terday afternoon as the most re
cent racial demonstrations con
tinued. -.
According to a CORE spokes
man, the three were arrested
when they refused to leave Leo's
restaurant when asked by the
hostess in the presence of police.
Chief of Police William Blake
I was unavailable for comment.
The spokesman identified those
arrested as Karen Parker, a jun
ior in the school of journalism
from Winston-Salem; James Fou
shee of Chapel Hill, and Rose
mary Ezra, a night student in
the University.
John Dunne, chairman of the
local CORE chapter, said the two
Negroes and one white would re
main in jail without bail.
CORE also demonstrated at the
Shack and Clarence's yesterday.
No one was arrested at either
place.
According to Lou Calhoun, a
CORE member, two Negroes and
two whites went to Clarence's,
where the proprietor yelled at
them to stop when one man came
through the door, and then grab
bed at him to throw him out. The
demonstrator went limp, Calhoun
said, and the proprietor asked a
customer to help throw the dem
onstrator out. "
Calhoun said the demonstrator
suffered minor bruises when he
hit the sidewalk, but will not pre
fer charges against the men for
throwing him out.
At the Shack, Calhoun said, four
more people went in and sat down
in a booth. He said they ordered
sodas, and when the manager
asked whether they -were going
to carry them out to drink, re
plied they would stay.
The manager then asked them
to leave, Calhoun said, and when
they, refused, he went.. up the
street to call the police. After
waiting for a few minutes, Cal
houn said, the group left.
The demonstrations yesterday
and Friday night were in support
of three of the four persons con
victed Thursday in connection
with sit-ins held last summer.

Dunne Says
Pines Visit
Not Sit-in
By GARY BLANCIIARD
One of the four persons arrest
ed Friday night after seeking
service at The Pines, a segregat
ed Chapel Hill restaurant, said
Saturday the group did not go
to the restaurant to break any
law but to reconcile their differ
ences with the management.
John Dunne, 20-year-old former
UNC student who gave up his
Morehead Scholarship to work
full-time for the Congress of Ra
cial Equality (CORE), said the
bi-racial group went to the res
taurant only after making reser
vations. Had Leroy Merritt, the manag
er, "a!ked us to leave in the
presence of police," Dunne said,
"we would have, as did the party
which went to Brady's."
This was a reference to three
integrationists who sought ser
vice at Brady's Restaurant about
the same time as Dunne's group
did at The Pines, but who left
at police request.
After police arrived at The
Pines, Dunne said, the manager
asked how he could sign a war
rant so that all four would be
jailed.
"We left and voluntarily made
an appointment to be booked at
the Police Station at 8 o'clock,
as the warrants hadn't been sign
ed yet but would be by then,"
Dunne said.
Pines Manager Leroy Merritt
declined to discuss the incident.
Dunne said his group went to
the restaurant not only to eat,
or talk to the manager if they
couldn't, but "to let his patrons
see him refusing to let a group
of well-dressed, sober, intelligent
and quiet people eat a meal.
"WTe did not go to antagonize
the manager but to try to recon
cile our differences."
Arrested with Dunne were Dav
id Dansby, 24, Negro head of the
campus NAACP unit and a UNC
Law student; David McReynoIds.
34, a national field secretary of
the Wrar Resisters League, who
arrived in Chapel Hill on a speak
ing visit last week; and an 18-year-old
local Negro girl, Phyllis
Timberlake.
Trial is set for Recorder's
Court on Jan. 7.

Ticket
By GARY BLANCHARD
Students unhappy with their
primarily end-zone tickets to the
Gatcr Bowl game Dec. 28 can
refund them at the Woollen Gym
ticket office Monday between 9
a.m. and 4:30 p.m. At the same
time, the 750 remaining Bowl
tickets will be on sale.
This was announced yesterday
afternoon by Chuck Erickson,
UNC director of athletics, fol
lowing a meeting with student
leaders, alumni and Athletic De
partment staff msmbers at which
Erickscn pointed out that UNC
has no control over what seats
are made available to Carolina
fans.
Erickson, obviously harried
from trying to keep on top of
the numerous Bowl arrangements
being made plus his normal du
ties, said he understands student
resentment over the location of
seats but he did the best he
could.
"Two allotments of tickets
were available for the two
schools," he explained, "4,000 in
one corner of the stadium and
12,000 in the opposite corner and
end zone.
"We took the larger one."
Mike Lawler, student body
president, said "The rub is that
Bowl games are a business ven
ture they are underwritten and
it is to those underwriters that
the better seats go.
"I think the important thing is
that we have a large number
of students, faculty, and alumni
in Jacksonville yelling for the
,Tar Heels-" .:
Erickson voiced agreement
with Lawler, noting that some
22,500 seats in the 48,000 - seat
stadium were sold in advance
last summer.
He pointed out that no tickets
have been placed on sale in Jack
sonville and won't be until unused
ones are returned from UNC and
Air Force.
Erickson said about 7,000 of
UNC's tickets are behind the end
zone, with the other 5,000 stretch
ing out to the 35 or 40 yard line.
Some tickets were blocked out
for faculty members, alumni and
Educational Foundation mem
bers, he added, but most were
sold on a first-come, first-serve
basis, with students able to buy
as many as they wished.
One student pointed out that
the uproar over seating might
not have arisen if students had
been told where the tickets were
located when they went on sale.
Erickson said he regretted that
this had not been done and, to
alleviate any possible feeling of
misrepresentation, he had ar
ranged for disgruntled students
to get refunds.

"No, I'm sorry."
The elderly police officer returned to the small

A gold lamp hung from the wall, supplement
ing the light of the fluorescent bar hanging from
the ceiling. Paint was cracked and peeling from
the two-tone smudged green walls.
The scratchy radio voice came out again in
carefully spaced words. "Report to Farrington
Road. A yellow light will be shining. A child
has blown himself to pieces with a shot-gun."
The officer at desk duty began to thumb
through a neat pile of complaint reports. On

duty lists were stapled. A 1961 map of Chapel

Heels Stagger
To 76-71 Win
BATON ROGUE, La Billy
Cunningham sat out some eight
minutes early in the second
half here last night, but came
back just in time to push North
Carolina to a lackluster 76-71
victory over LSU.
The Tigers, tough but not sur
prisingly so on their home court,
had UNC on the ropes as late as
three minutes left to the gun,
but could get no closer than
68-67 when Bobby Fetter made
two free throws off a foul by
Charlie Shaffer.
But here, Carolina rung up six
straight on foul shots by Ray
Respess 2), Cunningham 2) and
a lay-up by Billy Galantai to go
into a 74-67 margin with a min
ute and a half left.
LSU's Dick Maile canned a
jumper at the 1:25 point, and 30
seconds later John Piazza cut the
Tar Heel lead to three (74-71)
with a push bucket. But Shaf
fer's lay-up with 12 seconds re
maining was the final score, and
the Tigers went down by the
five-point deficit.
Cunningham, plagued by his
own fouls for the second straight
game, got his third personal with
11 minutes left in the first half,
and sat out six minutes of the
period because of it. UNC led at
the break, 42-35.
He committed number four just
two minutes into the second peri
od and was on the bench from
then to the 11:00 mark of the
half. But the Big Kid's return
(UNC was up by four, 54-50) pro
vided the impetus needed to stay
l with the pesky Tigers to the end.
UNC never trailed from there
as Cunningham hit 27 points, de
spite missing seven straight free
throws at one point. Respess got
18 and Shaffer 10 to account for

Again the phone rang.
"Police Department."
"Yes?"
"Beg pardon."
"Where?"
"What's the trouble, ? Who's calling?"
"O.K."
He rung up and proceeded to call the scratchy
voice.
"Someone just called here at the desk . . .
some kind of a foreign accent, couldn't under
stand them very well. Little trouble between
dining hall and the Law School. Send someone
over now."
"O.K."
The police chief came in with a large sheaf
of plans. "Come here and let me explain what
we're going to be doing Monday."
The two men discussed the plans in muted
voices for several minutes an old man entered
the office.
"You the only one on duty?" He needed a
ride to Carrboro. The Chief left with him.
The scratchy voice then spelled out the name
of a car owner whose car's tires had been stolen
while the car was parked in the Library Parkin"
lot.
Pecking out the letters one by one, the
officer typed out a complaint report for the
stolen tires.
He leaned back in his leather-covered swivel
chair and sighed. Another Saturday night on
desk duty had begun.
