TH Survey Shows erviee At By SUZY STERLING Discrimination in service exists one form or another at 25 per tent of 116 service and -accommodations lacilities in CSiapel Hill, Daily Tar Heel survey disclos ed yesterday. The survey was based on inter views with managers and em ployees at eight types of retail facilities listed in the Yellow Pages of the town phone book. Businesses included barber shops, leer and ale service, billiard par lors, drug stores, grocers, hos pital facilities, ice-cream parlors, motels, restaurants and service stations. The survey did not include em ployment or housing discrimina tion. The Daily Tar Heel survey could not be meaningfully com pared with a similar survey last August by the Chapel Hill-Carr-tcro Merchants Association be cause the Association did not keep records cf its survey, which included several categories of re tail business not included in the ITII survey. However, executive director Joe Augustine said the Associa tion surveyed some 250 retail es tablishments and found 5-8 per cent cf them discriminated in service to Negroes. Augustine said the Associa tion's survey was hurriedly con ducted at the request of The Chapel Hill Weekly, and Mayor Sandy McClamroch. "We probably missed quite a number of retail businesses Aug ustine said. "We just called the places where we knew there was some question." The findings of the Daily Tar Heel survey follows: 4 MEXICAN VISITORS Twenty-five professors from . Mexico will visit UNC Jan. 20 22 as a oart of the Inter-Institution Affiliation Program. The visitors will attend classes In the University and in nearby public schools. At 4 p.m. Jan. 21, a seminar will be held in Peabody Hall. Wednesday the Mexicans will present a ceramic tile marker , to be installed by the Tree of Friendship, which was planted by last year's visiting group. The tile will read, "Arbol de la Amistad Planted by Escuela Normal Superior de Mexico." In addition to University ac tivities, the group will take a tour of industries in Durham, and confer with school officials in Chapel Hill. I Nineteen of the visiting pro lessors will be from the Escu la Normal Superior in Mexico City, and the remaining six from other teacher education Institutions. ?'&"" I "5 'il.

By HUGH STEVENS DURHAM Once upon a time there were these two basketball teams, the Evil Giants and the Good Guys. Now the Good Guys had delusions of grandeur, see, , and they said to themselves, "We , will go to the land of the Evil Giants, we will use stealth and trickery, and we will kill the Evil Giants." So they went. But in the land of the Evil Giants, the Good Guys met with disaster. They weren't stealthy or tricky they were clumsy and careless. And the Evil Giants, who were led by the biggest Evil Giant of them all (his name was King Hack), took away the Good Guys' big gun, their only weapon, and beat them. Moral: the Good Guys don't al ways win, and the Evil Giants are looking tougher than ever. The Evil Giants, of course, are the Duke Blue Devils, who pum meled the UNC Good Guys, or rather, Tar Heels, here Saturday by 84-64. Led by tough Hack Tison and a lesser giant called Jeff Mullins, the Duke five out classed a flat Carolina team that made numerous errors. In fact, the Tar Heels threw away the ball 19 different times on traveling violations, bad pass es, etc. Billy Cunningham him self made almost as many mis takes as the near-flawless Duke team, losing the ball eight times to the Blue Devils' nine. Cunningham, who was probably miserable enough after eight er rors, was razzed unmercifully by the partisan crowd. Every time he touched the ball, a flurry of boos, catcalls, and whistles filled the Indoor Stadium air. "Come on,. All-American, ' they shouted, "show us your stuff P Cunningham didn't show a lot1 of All-American potential with his 4-for-18 shooting performance and a couple of ridiculous fouls. When he fouled out with more than six minutes remaining, the ribbing continued. As Billy slouched on the bench in disgust, a Duke fan incurred his ire, and the Kid rose in a defiant pose. Apparently, though, he gave it a Smoking Cancer See story page three. Of Accommodations haw ittle By JOEL BULKLEY Chances for passage of a pub lic accommodations law for Chap el Hill appear extremely dim. The Board of Aldermen is ex pected to take action on the pro posed anti-discrimination ordin ance at its meeting Monday night at 7:30 p.m. in the Town Hall. News Analysis The ordinance would bar ra cial discrimination in all local retail establishments doing busi ness with the general public. No town in North Carolina has yet adopted such an accommoda tions law. Firm lines on the controversial proposal have been drawn since early last summer, with many local civic and business groups voicing their opinions. The Aldermen voted 4-2 June 25 to postpone indefinitely action on the ordinance proposed by the second thought, and dropped back into his seat to watch the game. There was one All-America present, though, in the form of Jay Wilkinson, the Duke football sensation. At halftime, he was presented with a trophy as the outstanding player in the ACC for 1963, causing many to wonder "where's Lacey?" Big Jay accepted the award, and another All-America plaque, with polite humility. "I realize the wonderful opportunity I have had to attend Duke these last four years, to have participated in athletics, and to have played for Coach (Bill) Murray." At that point, a" voice high up in the Duke student section rang out, "We want HICKEY." ' The majority, though, rose to applaud Wilkinson. : Wilkinson was followed at half time by the Duke Pep Band, a splendid organization that leads the Duke team onto the floor and continues to , create large vol umes of noise during every home game. 'They, along with the Duke cheerleaders, managed to stir up the crowd with little trouble. A large sign in the" crowd read "Go, Tar Heels, Go Go to Hell." When the cheerleaders took a breather, the crowd continued on its own with some pretty rousing stuff. "Go to Hell, Carolina," they shouted, while a foghorn voiced student razzed Billy. Meanwhile, the UNC cheerlead ers were awfully alone, and they got lonelier as the Blue Devils poured 'em in. ,Their loneliness reached its apex with the appearance in the Duke line-up of Ted Mann Jr., son of the Blue Devils' sports publicity director. - f VhetJ Mann enters a game it is a sign that Coach Vic Bubas is either supremely, confident of victory or has thrown in the tow el. The big, awkward gorilla got almost as many hisses as Cun ningham, but exceeded the fans' expectations by scoring one point. On the sidelines, his fath er wheezed and coughed and look ed slightly embarrassed. Mean while, the Duke faithful decided they had seen enough and began heading slowly toward the exits. Chance Mayor's Committee on Integra tion, the Human Relations Com mittee, a local ministerial group and the now-defunct Committee for Open Business. The Chapel Hill-Carrboro Mer chants Assn. had earlier gone on record opposing the measure, saying it believed the accommo dations law "would not be in the best interest of this community." More than 200 persons jammed the Town Hall, with 25 persons rising in debate at the June meet ing with at least that number expected tomorrow night. . By postponing action on the law, the Aldermen avoided what they viewed as a "certain legal battle" over the ordinance. Later in the summer the Alder men requested the University's Institute of Government to make a study of the possible ordinance. Indications are the report will support, in substance, an opinion from the State Attorney General's office that the Town does not have the legal authority to enact such a law. Mrs. Margaret Tay lor, chairman of the Human Re-, lations Committee, said the In stitute of Government report, generally took the position of the HWWWUBBMIUBWU'IIM"1 'J I 1T1 F - - - ' ' Gre ater V j f ' - " t 1 I 1 I ' ' ' ' ' L - " Rev, Charles M, After Short ' u It Anti-segregation protests, re-, sumed here last night after a five-day lull with picketing at five, segregated businesses. Dem onstrations .in support of a pub lic . accommodations law will continue today with a march from Durham and Chapel Hill and an afternoon rally, CORE leaders said Saturday. About 25 "adults, including six University faculty members, picketed for two hours last night at the Tar Heel Sandwich Shop, Clarence's Grill, Colonial Drug store, Leo's Restaurant, and the Pines Restaurant. No incidents or arrests were reported. Chapel Hill students and townspeople are expected to meet at Eastgate Shopping Center this afternoon and join , a march to the First Baptist Church here. Members of the Durham CORE and NAACP chapters For Passage Attorney General on the ordin ance . The Attorney General's office has said in an advisory opinion, that Chapel Hill does not have legal authority to enact a public accommodations ordinance and in the absence of such authority would need a special act of the State Legislature. - UNC Law professor Don Pol litt, an expert on constitutional law has contended, - however. Chapel Hill has the necessary authority to enact such a law, and cited accommodations laws in other states and cities that fcave withstood court tests. George Esser of the Institute of Government said the report in dicates "the probable attitude, of North Carolina courts toward a municipality using its general welfare power for the purpose of passing an accommodations law." The general welfare powers clause, "to pass' all ordinances necessary for the betterment of' the town," has been carefully analyzed, in the report, Esser said: The question remains, how ever, how these powers have been interpreted, - I- -id' Photo by Jim Wallace. Jones Pickets plan to march to Chapel Hill this - morning, starting at two points in Durham the cam puses of Duke University and North Carolina College at 11:30 ,' a.m. James Farmer, 43-year-old CORE leader, will speak at a 4:30 rally in the First Baptist Church on Roberson St., after attending a strategy meeting with local integration leaders. i Other speakers include Uni versity Writer-in-Residence John Knwles and CORE national chairman Floyd McKissick of Durham. WUNC radio will broadcast a special documentary on the town's racial crisis tonight at 8 p.m. CORE officials said transpor tation to Eastgate will be pro i vided for all those interested at 2:30 from St. Joseph's Church on Rosemary St. The report examined the ex tent to which a municipality might extend its power to include the power to pass the law. John Sanders, director of the Institute, said yesterday the re port had been completed and turned over to Town Manager Robert Peck for distribution to the six aldermen. Neither Peck nor any members of the Board were available for comment. Support for the law has been given by the local chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality, the Human Relations Committee and the Chapel Hill Ministerial Assn. The Ministerial group will pre sent the Aldermen with a petition bearing about 1800 signatures in support of the proposed law. The signatures were gathered last week during a telephone cam paign. A copy of the petition ap pears in today's Chapel Kill Weekly. Last June Aldermen Roland Giduz, Joe Page, Gene Strowd and Paul Wager voted for tabling v the measure. Aldermen Hubert . Robinson, the Botard's only Ne gro member, and Mrs. Adelaide . Walters voted against postpone ment. ; The same 4-2 vote is epected tomorrow night. ersity Also Ash For Name Change The State College Alumni As sociation has launched a drive to break up the Consolidated Univer sity and make each cf UNCs three brandies autonomous. The drive, which has been quiet ly under way since last fall, has two aims: To change the name of State, now officially North Carolina StaU; of the University of North Carolina at Raleigh, to "North Carolina State University." The name of the Consolidated Uni versity would be changed to "The Consolidated Universities of North Carolina." The State alumni sug gested that UNC at Chapel Hill remain the University of North Carolina, and the University at Greensboro either retain its pres ent name or be re-named. Other branches that might be added to UNC in the future "could be ap propriately named." To split the present 100-mem-ber Board of UNC Trustees into three sections, with each section representing a unit of the Uni versity. Each of the three sec tions would have 32 members selected by the Legislature for 8-year staggered terms, and each section wou'id select four ol its members to serve on the Trustee! Executive Committee. If and when other branches were add ed to the University, they also would have a section to represent them, with equal membership on the Executive Committee. The ap pointees to the respective trustee sections would come from what ever source the General Assembly considered best. Each trustee section,, as pro posed by the State alumni, would be responsible for its respective ' branch of the University. The three autononomous boards would, in effect, end consolidation. The State Alumni Association's Board of Directors unanimously adopted the name change pro posal and the plan to split up the trustees on Dec. 14. But it wasn't until this past Friday, when the Trustees Executive Committee met in Raleigh, that the drive to end consolidation became gen erally known. News releases of the proposals were mailed Friday by Charles Reynolds of Spindale, chairman of the State Alumni Association. Consolidated University Presi dent William C. Friday said that Edmund Aycock of the N. C. State Alumni Association had called him on Dec. 20 asking for an appointment to discuss the proposals at the Trustees' Execu tive Committee session which met in Raleigh Friday. Friday said he granted Ay cock's appointment request, but that Edmund Aycock and Charles Reynolds, chairman of ti e N. C. State Alumni, Association evi dently decided to release the proposals to the press before dis cussing them with the Executive Committee. Friday said the earliest pos sible time the N. C. State Alumni proposals could be brought be fore the Executive Committee would be March 23. "The proposals are now a mat ter between Mr. Aycock, Mr. Reynolds and the Board of Trus tees," Friday said. - ( - - - i $20,442 GRANT AWARDED The National Institutes cf Health have awarded a grant cf $20,442 for, the next five years to Dr. Richard G.
