Note University Party's Don Carson and Student Party's Paul Dickson are pitted against each other in what has developed into probably the most hotly contested race of the campaign. The student body presidential candidates yes terday submitted statements of their qualifications and aims.) ..." Paul Dickson Don Carson The Student Party has com- ua mutcuuiuapudm uasea on the future needs of the Uni- versity not what someone else has done in the past The University -is faced with the major problem of growth. The residence college system represents one approach to dealing with this problem. As president I would work closely with the Ad - Hoc Residence College Committee in further developing this resourceful pro- fee this happen again at Caro ject and specifically to thor- Jina- I have pledged myself to oughly investigate the possibil ity of common eating facilities, coed residence colleges, and faculty fellows for the colleges. The key to the -success of the Residence . College . Program most come from effective lead ership within the residence halls. We propose that Student Government in cooperation with the MRC and CWC, estab lish an orientation conference for new hall presidents to be held sometime in April. We must also deal with the problem of growth in our stu dent . judiciary. Changing con cepts of the University's rela tion to the student requires a re - evaluation of the Honor Code and Campus Code. This re - evaluation has been fos tered by the appointment by the Chancellor of an aJ - hoc in vestigatory committee composed of students, faculty, and admin istration. The Honor System Commis sion has joined in a thorough evaluation of the student ju diciary, specifically investigat ing student judicial systems , on other campuses. As chairman of the commission, I made spe cific proposals to the Chancel lor's committee for limiting the Campus Code to the University , Community and student' func tions. Needed court reforms compose another aspect of our comprehensive proposals. An area which has been neg lected in the past is the rela tionship between students and mmmerrial establishments in UT ni "rnm niVv flnd S SSSX'SM- state. The Student Party ad ministration will use a discount ing commission to gain dis counts for residence halls, fra ternities, and sororities through cooperative contracting. Work on establishing a book coopera tive must be continued. The quality of undergraduate education remains a principle concern -of student government. Through its State Affairs Com mittee student government should expand its efforts to m- faculty salaries. We have proposed that student gov ernment should establish a fac ulty chair to encourage teach ing at the undergraduate level. An intense effort should also be made with other universitv agencies to develop increased personal counseling opportuni ties for the undergraduate stu dent. 'Big Sing' Six choral groups will partic ipate in the first annual invi tational 44Big Sing" to be held here Saturday. The "Sing" will be sponsored by the Varsity Men's Glee Club. It will begin at 8 p.m. in Memorial Hall. " A V -I - &AAAAAA& 7 y ' f Ji jT fc if s DON CARSON Carson rms 17S'0I1a Ter. be8inninS in 0U1 student government nas become one of the most powerful student organizations in the nation. At times however, because of inept leadershiD. we have seen that system degen erate to the point that its of- ncials spent their time need lessly antagonizing the Univer sity . administration, the student body, and the Chapel Hill community on petty and irrel- event matters. I hope never to be of real, and concrete bene fit to the student body. Communication, which is one of the greatest problems on our campus can be greatly facilitat- ed through, the establishment of the campus radio system which we have proposed. The crea tion of this AM radio service will be not Jonly a source of entertainment, for the student body, but also a rapid means of communication which can broadcast . Carolina athletic events, as well as local news items. We are concerned with the expansion of , the residence col lege system and are presently working to secure the Mono gram and the Faculty Club as a social and eatintf facilitv for the residence college pilot project. Several weeks ago I spoke with the Chancellor re garding another meeting like the Reidsville conference which meeting could be of great bene fit in orienting residence hall officers to the residence college system I am also making plans for the immediate inclu sion of a coed residence hall in the residence . college pilot project. Looking to the future we have heard a great deal about so called discount commissions and cooperatives which are well enough as long range goals, but your immediate con cern and mine is the exploita tion of the student body, all 11,303 of us, by Chapel Hill bus iness establishments. Daily we are being taken to the cleaners, ?nd I JL that 1. Your dry cleaning, your" haircuts, your clothing, and a host of other items are priced in such a manner that we must determ ine once and for all whether or not tbe merchants are guilty of price fixings and exploiting the members of this student community. When I am elected one of my first : actions will be to establish a fair prices commission to press with vigor for reductions in the overall price structure of this comma nit t bri them mtQ lme with surrounding areas. The econom ic pressure of this student body is tremendous, and together we can build a fire under Chape Hill merchants hot enough to melt their prices down. . You are doubtless concerned with the qualifications of the man who will be the next presi dent of the student body. Since my freshman year, I have served in all three branches of Student Government. This year it has been my privilege to serve with one of the greates administrations in the history o student government and it is because of the programs 1 have seen Bob Spearman initiate, the programs I have initiated, the programs we have initiated to gether, and the part I have had in helping to carry them out that I have asked you to con sider my candidacy. Platfo O'Bonnell, Walters Give. Views Of Post (Ed. Note University Party nominee Camilla Walters and Student Party nominee Sherry O'Donnell are ne a ring the end of a long campaign for student body secretary. .Both candidates talked about their ideas and qualifications this week with DTH staffer Mary Ellison Strother. Thase are her interviews.) Sherry O'Donnell "The Student . Government of-, fice is unique: m nreDaration for working in . it practical of fice experience helps but the most meaningful experience is having taken part in its actual operation," says Sherry O'Don-. nell. A junior from Annahdale, Va., she feels the job of secre tary is "one that has to be done right in order for the Stu dent Government to operate ef fectively. I feel that through my work in Student Govern ment this year and in. my back ground experience with the fed eral government in Washington I have gained the necessary ex perience." . Miss O'Donnell has worked three summers as a clerk typist for the federal government. A political science major and transfer from UNC-G, she was active there in student govern ment work. She served on the committee drafting legislation, was twice a delegate to the State Student Legislature, twice represented UNC - G at the mock United Nations Assembly, and served as parliamentarian of the legis lature. At UNC she has assisted Stu dent Body President Bob Spear man in serving as correspond ing secretary for State. Student Legislature, and as a member of the Consolidated University Student Co'tncil. - V C "n." She spends afternoons five days a week voluntarily work ing in the office of Hhe Secre tary Madeline Gray, but is not; a regular member of the sec retariat. "Bob has, through his organ ization, expanded it and made it efficient. Perhaps its only weakness is that its selectivity does not encourage a variety of students campus wide to be in terested in participating." She sees the secretary as an integral factor in the working of Student Government. "I feel that because of this experience in the office of the secretary is mandatory." "My opponent has said that the major responsibility of the student body secretary lies in the area of public relations. I feel she is harboring a miscon ception as to what the job en tails Granted, you have to be able to work well with people in Student Government and in anything you do, but this is only the beginning. After having worked with and talked to Madeline . I cannot accept pub lic relations as the primary goal of the secretary. Above all, she must insure that all work coming into the office be completed DromDtlv and cor rectlv as well as snnervise her assistants. t v 11111 7! -rxsrr- y Tl La x L4XvVr rv-.y a X " I . iiA J .N- - ....

Nelson Watts, Porky's campaign man ager, holds the candidate as he passes on a CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, SATURDAY, MARCH 20, 1965" Camilla Walters "The job of Student Body Secretary must not be taken lightly. It involves much more than just clerical work since tVe conrofarv mucf ha o mihlir1 relations man for the Student Body a competent, qualified organizer as well 2is an effici- ent . typist, correspondent and filest," states Camilla 'Walters. A Greensboro" native and a . dean's list student, Miss" Wal ters feels that an "effective Student Government and all of the activities it instigates ' are in some way dependent on an efficient and smoothly run sec retariat. Since the secretary is in daily contact with the. plans and activities of the Student Government programs, '.she must have had wide experience in these activities herself." bince entering -UNC- as a freshman in medical t technolo gy, she has participated active ly in many Student Govern ment capacities as well as oth er all - campus organizations. Presently secretary of Graham Memorial as well as of . the junior class, she. has; also worked with the Student Gov ernment secretariat, completed an intensive college secretarial course, and is presently secre tary of the District Association of College Unions serving 25 member schools. I She has served on Women's Honor Council, the Attorney General's staff, as a sophomore class officer, as summer presi dent of GM, and as an orienta tion counselor, discussion; lead er. "Her present, capacities' other than her three secretarial po sitions include coordinator of campus organizations for Cam pus Chest and a member of the Elections Board. "Because of my varied ac tivities on the UNC campus which include both administra tive and organizational positions as well as secretarial positions, and because , of my knowledge and interest in the Student Government - system," she stat ed, "I feel that I am fully qualified for the position of stu dent body secretary. , "Having been under the three different administrations of In man Allen, Mike Lawler and Bob Spearman, I am well aware of the problems of. Stu dent Government they encoun tered and familiar with the im provements and mistakes each made. "My opponent has stated that the student body secretary must be a 'slave and a slave driver.' Granted, the job de mands a vast amount of work and devotion. However, in my opinion, the secretary, having had the proper administrative experience and having been accustomed to working with oeoDle from all areas, will be able to select a hard working, devoted and responsible secre- tariat who will require no suave uiivmg Prize Capsule To Be Launched JCite CoMest Set For ( fA t " IS ' ' 4 ij. v --1 V I jy v- v i WaW& i ' .::: 4 . i . , UNC SOPHOMORE Danny Talbot slides in Devils 10-10.

Student Legislature began work on the passage of the Stu dent Government budget for 1965 - 66 Thursday night after passing two appropriation bills and one. resolution. The resolution called for an end to the xecent increase in installation of pay telephones on the UNC campus. Appropriation bills were passed to provide funds for the Academic Affairs Committee's course evaluation booklet and the UNC debate team's recent trip to the regional competition of the National Forensic Asso ciation debate meet. A bill establishing the pro cedure for the selection of cheerleaders was postponed Un 'Ul next session Porky The Pig He's Running Too By GREG LOW DTH Feature Writer Frank Hodges was startled, to put it mildly, w hen he saw his new opponent for Ehring haus academic vice president. But, Hodges shrugged his shoulders and decided to be friendly. He walked across the residence hall lobby to shake hands. - Hodges stared in disbelief when - his opponent snorted at him, then urinated on the lobby floor. Porky Pig is no run - of - the -litter candidate. He is a small, black and white stud pig, nine "weeks old. Some 75 persons signed a letter of endorsement for him to run against Hodges, who was previously unopposed. Nelson Watts, Dwight Thomas, Richard Walker, and Scott Ed wards thought up the plan to run the pig, and decided to set it into action. - Thursday morning the four went to Raleigh stockyards, and then to Smithfield in search of a suitable candidate. Finally of TOT ef jtA V' bte : as the presidents and a senator from each floor of the three member residence halls. Debate Breaks Out i Heated debate broke out over an amendment offered by Avery president Jim Ward that would have required senators to have a 2.0 over - all aver age. Opponents to the amendment argued that the largest possible number of people should be en couraged to run for senate seats. " Senator Bob Farris of Parker charged that this amendment might greatly reduce the num ber of people eligible to serve. Other senators felt it sufficient to require only that senators be in "good standing." Amendment Beaten Ward's amendment was de feated. The constitution gives Scott College residents the power to elect and recall their officials, initiate and Teview senate acts, and propose and ratify consti tutional amendments. they found a farmer in Clayton "who had the perfect pig for the job." -The brought the pig to Cha pel Hill and took him to Ehring haus Thursday evening. After the incident in the lobby they led him around on a leash to meet fifth and sixth floor resi dents. "Porky's reception was tre mendous," said Watts, who is the pig's campaign manager "We did have a few unfortunate moments though, when Porky 'misbehaved' in a couple of the suites." "We hope that Porky may be able to meet Frank in a de bate," Watts said laughing. "We want this campaign based on is sues as well as on personality." Regarding the election, Watts! said it is too late to get the pigs name on the ballot, but that a massive write - in cam paign was being organized. He expressed hope. that Porky will be able to meet every per son in Ehringhaus. Volume 72, Number 118 JkHdJ) Don Curtis To Substitute For K. Gary It's kite fly in' day!
