CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, SATURDAY, MARCH 7, cocM classification is reserved for any race. All jobs are open to all races." He promised: "If there is evi dence of a violation, corrective action will be taken." Aycock's statement follows: From time to time I have made reports to the Faculty Council on matters of -cterest to all of us. Of late a few mem bers of the faculty have expres sed concern with the possibility that the employment practices of the University discriminate against members of the Negro race. In most matters it would suffice to respond with assur ances that the University is measuring up to its responsi bilities but I gather to do so in this situation is not sufficient. This is related to the fact that there appears to be a wide varie ty of views on what constitutes discrimination. Consequently, I shall state the policies and pro vide facts on employment prac tices and leave conclusions to you. The employment policy of the University at Chapel Hill is to hire persons cn the basis of their qualification. Race is not a qualifying or disqualifying consideration. In respect to "Classified Personnel" the Per sonnel Office is a service agency to all schools and departments. It determines the qualifications of all applicants and provides this information to the prospec tive supervisor of an applicant or applicants. The final selection of any candidate for a position is the responsibility of the sup ervisor concerned, subject -to-applicable state personnel regula tions and procedures. In short, hiring is -decentralized and not centralized. On the other hand, standards for employment are determined by central authority. Race, however, is not a part of these standards. Currently the University em ploys 2545 persons who are "classified under the state sys tem. Of these 2545 employees, 961 or more than 40 are Neg roes. Obviously, the University does not have a quota for the Negro race. Those persons who are suspicious about employ ment practices of the University apparently have no quarrel with the number of Negros who are currently on the pay roll. Presumably, therefore, the concern is with the kind of jobs they hold. No job classification is reserved for any race. All jobs are open to all races. The present distribution of jobs by category is as follows: In technical jobs, including nurses, laboratory technicians and the like, there are 538 jobs, and 132 are held by Negroes. . In office and clerical jobs there are 869 employees and 17 are Negroes. There are 140 skilled work ers on the campus, 25 of them are Negroes. Twenty-eight of the 92 semi skilled workers are Negroes. Fifty-five of the 72 unskill ed workers are Negroes. Of the 829 service workers, 649 are Negroes. There presently are 82 Prac tical Nurses, 11 General Duty Nurses and 16 Medical Labora tory workers, including 1 Medi cal Laboratory Supervisor, who are of the Negro race. In this area we have job opportunities and many qualified Negroes ap ply. Consequently, the employ ment rate for Negroes is high. The situation with regard to typist, stenographic, clerical and administrative service posi tions is quite different.

The series of 10 minute speeches, sponsored by Student Body Presi dent Mike Lawler, attempted to cover all aspects of community life. The first speaker, Mrs. Charlotte Adams, told of efforts by local Negro parents to set up a study hall for Negro children who were about to enter integrated schools. The study hall was originally located in St. Paul's Church, but overcrowding forced teachers to move it to the senior high school. The program was so success ful that it was extended to all grades, though originally intend ed for the junior high school level. Mrs. Virginia Tolliver told the body how the Chapel Hill Co operative Free School was estab- New. Committee To Make Study A committee of the State Leg islative Council has been ap pointed to make a study of pro gramming cn VVUNC-TV, the state-owned educational televi sion station. State Rep. Hugh Johnson Jr., head of the newly-created State Legislative Council, appointed the committee Monday. John Young, director of tele vision at WUNC-TV, said yes terday the committee is making the study at the request of the 1963 Legislature. The committee is expected to probe the possibility of expand ing educational TV in North Carolina. "The immediate prob lem of educational TV is to get additional transmitting facilities in other locations . throughout the state.

Supported by volunteer teachers, the nursery school of fers its services to children of all races and backgrounds and charges parents according to their means. Mrs. J. C. Herrin described the local school board's actions in circumventing school integration since it was achieved three years ago. According to Mrs. Herrin, the board used various means to keep Negroes out of predominately white schools, including "Gerry mandering." Mrs. Herrin warned that the new housing redevelopment pro gram would halt decentralization of the Negro community into oth er residential areas by relocat ing families near the old com munity. This, she claimed, would prolong school segregation. The Chapel Hill recreation pro grams were discussed by Mr. Hilliard Caldwell. The Chapel Hill Recreation Department present ly operates two segregated cent ers, one for Negroes and one for whites. The white center has never had a permanent location, and the Negro center is under staffed and delapidated. Caldwell said approximately 800 Negro chil dren use their center. The State Government has plan H2d to enact a tax bill which would give $50,000 for the con struction of a new center. UNC student Tony Mason told the body an improvement of 15 per cent in this year's voter reg istrat'on drive among Negroes had been reported. Dr. Frank Williams, a mem ber of the Mayor's Human Re lations committee, has investigat ed employment practices in the Chapel Hill area and charges dis criminatory hiring. Williams said the employment problem has been improved by the initiation of vocational training, clerical studies programs and a high school degree program.

This move, initiated by Dean William G. Long, will require freshmen to live on campus and will involve a major shakeup in the entire residence system. In order to make room for the influx of freshmen, those vacan- Campus Chest Solicitation Is On Until Monday Carolina men have only three more days to raise themselves from the depths of miserly dis grace. Gerry Good, co-chairman of the Campus Chest Drive, an nounced that the drive which was scheduled to end Friday will be continued until Monday night due to the fact that UNC men have contributed only $900 as compared to over $1200 for the women students. But this, she said, is still a far cry from the original goal of $1.00 per stu dent which would net about $3,000. Good said that the women have approached this goal by about 90 per cent. The men have not done so well. She said the drive has been supported by about 50 per -cent of the faculty, 90 per cent of the fraternities and 95 per cent of the sororities. A booth will be directed in the Y-Court Saturday morning to ac cept contributions from these off campus students who have not been reached by the drive. Dorm solicitors will be ready to accept last .minute contributions until Monday night. The drive hopes to reach its goal with an auction at Graham Memorial cn the 17th and a carni val on March 20th and 21st. iror lotilay Those groups, along with a number of individual entrants, will compete fcr awards such as Beatle wigs and pizza dinners.

Press International Service Of Gripes cies left by this year's graduates in many dorms will have to be filled by freshmen, thus reduc ing the hopes of many who had hoped to move out of a three man room. Rooms for male graduate stu dents have been restricted to Connor, Carr and fifth and sixth floors Craige. Any undergraduate living in these spaces must move, and any graduate male living elsewhere on campus will have to move into these spaces. Complaints have come from those who had hoped to move out of a triple room into Avery, Teague or Parker. Last year freshmen were not allowed to move into these dorms, but this year the majority of residents will be freshmen. The quota for freshmen is as follows: Avery 47 per cent, Park er 42 per cent and Teague 45 per cent. Most other dorms will have similar distributions. A few dorms will have no freshmen. Director of Housing James Wadsworth said the increase of freshmen men in the dorms will necessitate the addition of ad visors. There will be one advis or on each floor next year. There will be many freshmen rooming together, but also many upperclassmen and freshmen combinations, he said. The goal is to scatter freshmen around as much as possible.
