'Old' Legislature
By IIUGII STEVENS
Student Legislature, winding up
its 36th session in a flurry of ac
tivity, breezed through the final
half of a record $179,984.39 bud
get in a special session Wednes
day night.
It was the final meeting for the
old legislature, as the newly
elected members of the 37th Ses
sion were scheduled to be sworn
in last night following the in
auguration of the 19G4-65 stu
dent body officers. Major activi
ty by the new legislature was not
expected before the first full
meeting next Thursday.
Wednesday's two - and-a - half
hour meeting was only the sec
ond devoted to consideration of
the hefty (27 page) budget. The
two-day wrap-up of the Legisla

the swiftest within memory of

Faculty
Awards
Today
Two different awards will be
presented to faculty members
at the General Faculty meeting
of the entire UNC faculty to be
held this afternoon at four
o'clock in the Carroll Hall Audi
torium. The two awards to be present
ed are the Tanner Awards for
excellence i.i the teaching of
undergraduate students, and the
Thomas Jefferson Award, pre
sented annually to a member of
the faculty whose life and work
is iti the best traditicu and spirit
of Thomas Jefferson.
The Tanner Awards were first
presented in 1956. They were es
tablished in 1955 by the Tanner
family of Rutherfordton :u hener
of the late Lola Spencer and.
Simpson Bobo Tanner. Waen
first presented, the- Tanner
Awards consisted of $500. Last
year, fcur members of the UNC
faculty received the awards

B
get whizzed through the body
with only minor adjustments in the
figures proposed by the Budget
and Finance Committees. The
boldest change was the deletion
of a $1,260 appropriation for a
campus humor magazine.
The financial policy section of
the budget was amended to insure
that money appropriated by SG
will not be spent at establish
ments which do not serve all stu
dents, without authorization from
the President of the Student Body.
The President may authorize
expenditures at segregated estab
lishments at his own discretion.
Arthur Hays, who introduced
the amendment for a group of leg
islators, referred to "unfortunate
incidents' in the past, and said
"this is the only logical and fair
way to insure that each student
who pays his fees receives the
full benefit from them."
Phil Baddour also spoke for the
amendment, along with Mark
Lindsay and Darst Murphey. The
measure passed with only two
dissenting votes.
Hays said later that this was
"a sound fiscal policy for Stu
dent Government to follow.'
Record Figures For '64
The budget passed Wednesday
exceeds by more than $17,000
the $162,514,42 appropriated last
year. The largest slice, more
than $61,000, went to Graham Me
morial, which automatically re
ceives one third of the , budget
annually. The Daily Tar Heel and
the Yack each received $30,000
plus slices, and only $3,996.33 of
next year's expected income was
left unappropriated.
Hays, head of the Finance Com
mittee, stubbornly opposed an in
crease in the $400 Senior Class
appropriation, saying it was time
that Student Government stopped
subsidizing class projects.
When Phil Baddour corraled
enough votes to up the outlay by
$120, Hays reminded him, "Mr.
Baddour, next year I will be here
and you won't. We'll get 'em
then!"
When the budget was unani
mously approved, Speaker Bob
Spearman thanked the legislators
for their cooperation during the
Session. Baddour in turn extend
ed the best wishes of the body to
the Speaker, commending him for
"an outstanding performance."
In final action, the body approv
ed a resolution by Rick Kramer
to set up the Carolina Athletic
Council, and another supporting
a basketball court for the Ram
Varsity Parking Lot.

SEN. SALTONSTALL
... Proposes Compromise
Sen. Saltonstall
Proposes P. A.
Bill Compromise
WASHINGTON (UPI) Sen.
Leverett Saltonstall (R.-Mass.),
yesterday proposed a possible
compromise amendment to the
touchy public accommodations
section of the Civil Rights Bill.
, The moderate GOP leader's
arnendmei.it would give the - at
torney general 90 days to settle,
on a voluntary basis, discrimi
nation complaints in public
places. If no settlement is reach
ed, the Justice Department and
plaintiff could file a civil suit.
Saltonstall's proposal would be
a compromise to an amendment
offered by Senate GOP Leader
Everett M. Dirksen. Dirksen
wants state voluntary efforts to
precede any federal enforcement
of the public accommodations
section.
There was speculation that
Dirksen might withhold his own
amendment and co-sponsor Sal
tonstall's proposal.

After a two year absence, the Sigma Chi Derby re
turned yesterday with its usual array of coeds, fish,
ping-pong balls, Chubby Checker records, and an extra
added attraction this year rain.
Kay Hoyle (Bonnie's sister) was crowned Miss Mod
ern Venus. She was competing against several other
coeds who stood in the rain, braving not only the wet
weather, but the numerous hoots and catcalls from the
admiring males who quite frankly wouldn't have cared
if a tornado had swept through Kenan Stadium.
One good thing, though, everybody was happy, espe
cially the Sigma Chi's, who seem to be enjoying the
whole thing more than anyone else.
It was a field day for camera bugs, especially dur
ing the limbo contest. As Chubby Checker asked, "How
low can you go?" many of the fraternity members gave
ole Chub some pretty interesting answers which can't
be printed here because we would be sued for libel.
The crowd favorites seem to be Punkin Houston and
Judy Allen. In fact, they received a lot of encourage
ment from the bystanders, most of whom somehow
managed to get front row seats.
"Inhale, Punkin," someone shouted.

.Draw Jail Sentences
By FRED SEELY
Two leaders of the local civil
rights movement were imprisoned
yesterday by Judge Raymond B.
Mallard.
Patrick Cusic, UNC graduate
and field secretary for the Stu
dent Peace Union, and Quentin
Baker, a NAACP volunteer work
er, were given sentences of one
year and six months respective
ly after being convicted of block
ing traffic and resisting arrest
during racial demonstrations here
in February.
Another 47 demonstrators re
ceived sentences from Mallard
in Hillsboro, but all were suspend
ed. Cusick, 32, received a two year
suspended sentence in addition
to his jail term. He was also put
on five years probation.
Baker, a senior at North Caro
lina College in Durham, was sen
tenced to six months in jail, pay
ment of court costs and a $100
fine. A capias will be issued the
first of July for him to start his
sentence in order that he may
complete his senior year of col
lege. He will be required to post
$2,500 bond, however, and reports
yesterday indicated that he would
stay in jail. His six-month term
will begin in July whether or not
he posts bond.
Arthur Simons, a UNC student,
received a 12-month suspended
sentence and a fine of $100. Pray
er for judgment an another charge
was continued for two years.
Five civil rights leaders were
detained overnight in Hillsboro
for sentencing tomorrow. They
were John Dunne, J. V. Henry,
Buddy Teagle, Lou Calhoun and
John Shivery.

as Bynum, 18, were given proba
tion. Bullard had been convicted
.on 12 counts of blocking traffic
and resisting arrest and Bynum
on 15.
Bynum, a Negro freshman, was
found innocent by the Men's Coun
cil a month ago after charges had
been brought citing him with un
gentlemanly conduct. Judge Ray
mond B. Mallard gave him an 18
month jail sentence and $100 fine,
plus payment of court costs, but
the sentence was suspended in
lieu of five year's probation.
Prayer for judgment was render
ed on another count, continued
for two years.
Bullard, a junior, was sentenc
ed to 12 months in jail, a $100
fine and costs. The jail term was
suspended for five year's proba
tion. In both cases, Mallard added
the provision that neither could
participate in a demonstration
during the period of probation.
"I'm not sending you to jail,"
he said. . "Only you can do that
to yourself now."
Both students said little during
the proceedings, letting their law
yers do the talking.
Several other UNC students
were sentenced, including Tucker
Clark, a freshman from Washing
ton, D. C. Clark was sentenced
to jail for 60 days plus costs, the
jail sentence suspended for three
years on the provisions that he
pay costs by today at 10 a.m.,

Ping-Pong
"Come on, Judy, it's all psychological," someone else
yelled.
But Punkin and Judy fell by the wayside as Alice
Brown came from out of the wild blue yonder, or some
where like that, and won.
The wildest part of the afternoon was the "secret
event" which was a pretty fishy affair (pun intended).
A hair net, with two eggs in it, was placed on several
sorority girls' heads. Each of them was handed a dead
fish and told to climb up on a fraternity boy's shoulders.
The object of the contest was to see who could bust
the eggs on the other girls' heads first. But things
didn't end" there. No siree. People started throwing the
dead fish up in the stands, and they in turn started
throwing them . back down at the coeds, Judy Smith
catching one on the side of the head.
Shooo!!
Another highlight of the farce, er, derby, was the
Hit the Geek contest. The only trouble was that nobody
could hit the Geek (whatever that is) until sharp
shootin' Pi Phi, Miss Sis Craver stepped up and she
blasted the Geek between the eyes with a chocolate pie.
But the poor Geek got mad, and threw a pie at Bonnie

ed for five years. She also had
to agree to the three provisions.
Christ Munger, a junior, was giv
en an almost identical sentence,
as was Sondra Gardner, a sopho
more nurse. Ralph Mitchell was
also given a suspended sentence.
Mallard several times express
ed concern over the apparent lack
of interest in the case by the
parents of the sudents.
"Only two parents have spok
en to me," he said. "This just
isn't right." Solicitor Cooper
agreed, saying only one' parent
had contacted him.

AN OPEN MIND
(Editor's note: The following article, written by UNC student Alain
de Fontanay of France, is the final article in a series of four,
written by foreign ' students now attending the University. The
series has been presented in conjunction with "International Stu
dent Emphasis Week.")
By ALAIN DE FONTANAY
When I entered school in France, France was presented as the
mother of all democracies we had led the world in 1789; we had
the "Declaration of Man's Rights" to prove it. Later, I went to
England and to my dismay, I was introduced to the mother of
democracy-Magna Carta, Bill of Rights. . . .
Then I came to the United States. Once more I had to review
my concepts American Revolution ... it was self-evident that
the United States was the mother of democracy. Finally, I met
a Russian who didn't know of any democracy prior to 1917 (for
tunately or unfortunately, I never had the chance to go to Greece).
As you can see, I found myself in a delicate situation, when
I returned to France. I could not deny it to be the mother of
democracy, yet I had to admit that it was not the only one to
carry the weight of this title. Therefore, I was in a disadvantage,
when dealing with my friends who stayed at home. For most of
them, it was still self-evident that France, indeed, was the first
democracy. However, a quotation of Socrates came to the rescue:
"If you want to argue with me, first define your terms." There
was the problem: no one was completely wrong, but no one was
completely right either. Each had his own definition for the term
"democracy."
I grant you the self-evident character of this concept; however,
it is too often the most evident truth which has to be written
out, or it might be too evident. Anyway, this introduction is only
to show the utility, even the necessity of contacts with people not
from home. Indeed, if we always remained with the same group,
in the same surroundings, we would receive "toutes faites" notions
on most everytlvng, without incentive, or ability to verify their
soundness. We would generalize from our particular; our motives,
remaining unchallenged, would lose their meaning.
On the contrary, when we travel, when we meet anyone from
somewhere else, while being in an open state of mind (I feel, and
I want to insist on this idea, that this open state of mind is abso
lutely prerequisite). Indeed, too many people have pre-conceived
ideas on everything, and therefore will not look. for facts to confirm
them. Thus the cab driver in Paris who received from the Americ
an tourist a normal, or smalf tip might treat him as a "cheap"
American, while if he had received from the same tourist a big
tip, he would have been confirmed , in his original idea, i.e. all
Americans are millionaires. I believe the lack of open-mindedness
is a main source of misunderstanding in the world: we speak but
do not listen. Then and only then, through a confrontation of ideas,
of philosophy, of different ways of life, can we begin to understand
others better, to get acquainted with their ways of life. And since
this confrontation will have forced us to deepen our misunderstand
ing of our own behavior, we will learn its strength and its imper
fections, as well as the strength and imperfections of the other's
point of view. Through this better knowledge, we could transcend
both sides and, instead of coming to a compromise, we would
reach a higher understanding of our own way of life.
I think that this confrontation is hard it asks a special effort
from both sides. I would further point out that it asks an even
greater effort from the outsider, in diplomacy and in patience,
since he is the one who comes to challenge the "established."
Moreover, this effort is vital, not only for our relation with others,
but also for ourselves as individuals.
I ask you to think about it; I ask it very specially of those
who will go abroad to visit the museum called Europe. I do
apologize for all times I forgot it, myself.
