The Souih's Largest Coltege Newspaper Founded Feb. 23. 1893 CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 21, 1965 Volume 72. Number KJ7 Chapel Hill While You Were Away life Mm- Building Permit Given Burger Stand; Church Asks For Review Of Decision A building permit was issued April 13 that would allow a walk-in hamburger stand to be constructed next to the Univer sity Baptist Church at the cor ner of Franklin and Columbia Streets. . - Almost immediately,, action was taken by three laymen of the church to halt the building on the grounds that it would detract from the beauty and se renity of the adioining prooertv. The North Carolina General Assembly passed a bill Thurs day which permits the Chapel Hill Board of Aldermen to cre ate a commission which will be able to control the exterior ap pearance of town buildings. This commission will have the pow er to make these buildings con form to surrounding construe tions in appearance and use. Since this bill is not retro active, it in no way affects the proposed hamburger stand. The project has met with op position ever since Bell's Inc announced plans for the restau rant last month. , . Town Manager Robert Peck said yesterday there was noth ing that could be done to re ject the building permit request since it met the town's require ments. The University Church ap pealed the decision to the Chap el Hill Board of Adjustment. The appeal filed last week charges that adequate parking facilities are not provided for the restaurant. The 10-member Board of Ad justment will meet May 3 to consider the appeal. Construe tion will be detained by town officials until at least then. If the building permit is up held, either , the church or an other interested party is expect ed to take the matter to Or ange County Superior Court. The Board of Aldermen tried unsuccessfully to table a propos al that would limit retail devel opment of the prime business! Legislature Considers Trustee Election Plans Two divergent plans for mod ifying the selection procedures of Consolidated University trus tees have been introduced to the North Carolina General Assem bly. Both plans are directed to ward the elimination of vote trading when the House and Senate committees on trustees meet in joint session to elect UNC trustees from a large num ber of nominees; Under the current system of selection, any state legislator may nominate any number of persons for a trustee's position that he chooses, and the joint legislative committee then nar rows down the number to fill the number of vacancies, , Sen. Julian Allsbrook of Hali fax has introduced a bill which would place two people for eye rv senator in a senatorial dis trict on the board of trustees. Representation in the North Carolina State Senate has been apportioned according to popu lation. Allsbrook said the University belongs to all the people in the state, and his proposal would in sure fair representation of the North Carolina population on the trustees' board. . The second plan for trustee selection has been proposed by Reo. James Green of Bladen, chairman of the House Univer sitv Trustee's Committee. Green says he will appoint a subcommittee for his group which will screen all candidates for trustee positions and recom mend the most qualified to tne full committee for acceptance Under Green's plan, the chair DTH Wins Again Former DTH Associate Editor Pete Wales has won first place and Armistead Maupin has won honorable mention for their edi torial columns in the annua Southeastern College Newspaper Comeptition. The DTH received honorable mentions in the categories of "best college newspaper in the Southeast" and "best feature writing in a college newspaper in the Southeast." The competition is sponsored by Hollins College in Hollins, Virginia. The awards will be presented at a banquet April 30 in Roa- nokeVaj property between Columbia and Franklin Streets. The proposal, designed specifically to prohibit Bell's Inc., from going through with its plans, would only al low retail development in shop ping center areas under special town permission. Judge L. J. Phipps, speaking as a member of the University. Baptist Church, said that if the Town would condemn the land beside the church as a public park, the Baptists would find the money to pay for it. He said the church would like to buy the property, and had tried unsuccessfully to buy it in the past. "The Baptists are poor people," Phipps said, "and we'll need help." IBM Will Build Research Plant International Business Mach ines Corporation (IBM) announ ced plans last week to build a manufacturing and engineering facility in the Research Trian gle by early next year. In an announcement at a press conference attended by Gov. Dan Moore and former Gov. Lu ther Hodges, company officials said that the plant, employing 1500 people, will manufacture ment. President Clarence E. Friz zle of IBM System Manufactur ing Division said the company is now eyeing a site somewhere north of N. C, 54 in the Tri angle. ;. ., v y.., ; "-'" We feel the Research Trian gle furnishes an intellectually stimulating climate through the M;hree universities of Duke,. North Carolina and N. C. State," Frizzle said. . Construction will start as soon man of the Senate University Trustees Committee would ap point a similar subcommittee to his group which would also rec ommend the most quaimea per sons to the full Senate commit tee. Green theorizes that when both committees meet in joint session and present their recom mended lists, the most quali fied persons will appear on both lists and will receive appoint ments. Those names which do not ap pear on both lists will be sub ject to a vote of the joint com mittee membership, much as the current system works. University Squabble A battle that isn't a battle, according to the contenders, is being staged between the state" and Southern Bell Telephone Company over who should con trol the proposed television mi crowave system for statewide educrional TV. UNC officials, speaking at a hearing ordered by the Director of Administration Ed Rankin Jr., contended that savings re sulting from the state building its own facilities would enable the construction to pay for it self. Southern Bell Vice President John J. Ryan stressed that "we in the communications industry are in the best capacity to trans mit your signals." He said that if the state built its own equipment it might be- come "oosoiete wunin a iew years, whereas if Southern Bell rented the facilities to the state they would be best suited to maintain the equipment. An appropriation of $1,250,000 was allocated to UNC for ex pansion of open broadcast tele vision in the 1963 General As sembly. UNC told administration offi cials and representatives of tele phone and electronics firms that the state could save $628,000 over a 10-year period by con- structing 1 stations. its own microwave A letter to Mayor Sandy Mc Clamroch from Robert Hanna president of Bell's Inc., describ ing proposed construction changes in the new building said "we feel by making these improvements, our building wil present a much more pleasing view of Columbia Street and from the side of the church." Dr. Wesley Wallace called on the Town Board to take another look at Chapel Hill's zoning problems, to exclude Bell's from the rezoning request because this is "specail legislation," and to oppose the manner in which the request was being handled "Zoning shouldn't be aimed at anyone's property," he told the Aldermen. as possible. One third of the will be brought in initially, and then, Frizzle said, "we expect to have to beat off applicants wanting to come here after that." Frizzle said the Triangle area has many attractive fea tures. "You can go a little west and hit the mountains, you can go a little east to the ocean, and there is practically no snow." He said some of the locally hired people will be taken to other plants for training, most likely to the firm's Endicott, N. Y. plant. The Triangle plant will be producing data commun ications, basically of a terminal type that feeds into a central computer. Central manager of the new plant, Art Becker, said recruit ers will be in Raleigh within the next two week to conduct interviews. He said the com pany will operate temporarily in Raleigh until the new plant is completed. They hope to start shipping manufactured equipment out by November or December 1965. Andy Rendino, the company's real estate and construction re presentative, gave some rea sons why IBM chose the Re search Triangle over other sit es. "You look at the living con ditions of the residents. You look at the school system. You check to see if there are enough people to hire and look around to see if the potential employees have the skills or the potential skills." Then the area having the best combination score is chosen, he said. He added that the Uni versities here can furnish the technical know - how as well as the culture that makes the area attractive. And Southern Bell Over Ed-Television Ryan said that Southern Bell's annual rental charge for the microwave system would come to $246,315. The state would not have to pay for the system's construction. Ryan added that they would make available to the steta an elaborate state-wide telephone communications system, educa tional TV, and teletype cricuits for state agencies. Weaver noted that his studies indicated state ownership of the stations would result in a sav ing of $1 million over 10 years. University President William Friday said at the hearing that there has been no battle be tween the University and the telephone company. "From the beginning our po sition has been that if the costs quality were equal then we WOUlu iavor usuig uie wtmiicj of the Bell System," Friday said. Ryan said that all the tele phone companies in the state favored some centralized sys tem for state communications, and that they could handle it best. "If you ask us to take edu cational television facilities to any part of the state we will do it at the most economical cost possible," he said. He add ed that Southern Bell paid over $18 million in taxes to the state last year, Bill Drafted To Modify Speaker Ban Officials of an undisclosed state - supported college have drafted and circulated a bill to modify the North Carolina Speaker Ban Law, according to State Director of Higher Educa tion Dr. William Archie. : Archie said that a sample draft of the proposed bill was handed out at a meeting of presidents from state colleges held Apr. 7 m Raleigh. He refused to disclose the name of the college that soon sored the bill, but he said the meeting was called "at the re quest of three or four presidents to discuss common problems.7 Archie did not say if the meet ing was called specifically be cause of. the speaker ban bill "It just happened this matter came up," he said. The proposed bill would amend the present bill so that the board of trustees of each state - supported college could decide who may speak at their school. The controversial Speaker Ban Law now in effect was passed during the closing min utes of the 1963 General Assem bly. It outlaws Communist speak ers, those who have pleaded the Fifth Amendment and persons who advocate the overthrow of either the U. S. Constitution or the State of North Carolina. Trustees of the Consolidated University of North Carolina have gone on record as. oppos ing the law. No bill. to modify; the Speaker Ban Law has ever reached the floor of the General Assembly. . The proposed bill advocates this change: "The board of trustees or oth er governing authority of each college or university which re ceives State funds in support thereof, having full power and authority in all matters relative to the administration of such college or university for speak ing purposes by any person. . .' UNC trustees are opposed to the law. They have stated pub- lically that the law is unneces sary and it infringes upon aca demic freedom. . Archie said copies of the pro posed bill have been made available to college presidents "so that they could go back home and talk to their trustees." He indicated he did not know what action, if any, the trus tees of State-supported schools . would take. Asked if he thought there would be any modification of the present Speaker Ban Law during this session, Archie said, "If I were pressed into a cor ner. I'd say no. But that is purely a personal opinion." Ryan went on to say the state owned equipment would become obsolete. "When the state owns the equipment and it becomes old you can either use inade quate equipment or buy new equipment," he said. I. Tunis Corbell, engineering director for a local communi cations production company, ar gued for state ownership of an educational microwave system. Corbell said that Raytheon Corporation, low bidder for the state contract still pending, could construct the faculties in the first stage of the program within 100 days. Southern Bell said it could have the first phase completed in a year. Corbell called the charge that state equipment would become obsolete "absurd." "I would like to point out that manufacturing and supplying microwave systems for the state and municipalities is also free enterprise," he said. Major W. B. Lentz, communi cations officer for the State Highway Patrol, said the patrol prefers to own and operate its own microwave system. "Public service companies are not prompt in repairing equipment," Maj. Lentz said. He noted that it took 30 hours for the telephone company to repair lines out of order at the Greenville Patrol station. , THE SOD COMES ROLLING UP from the gridiron at Kenan Stadium and with it Graham Memorial's plans to hold Jubilee on the grassy plot: Don't worry Jubilee is not dead yet.

Serendipities To Pick 'n What has nine, lives, two coif-. fures, one pair of glasses, plays banjo, guitar, congo drums, bass fiddle and sings? The Ser endipity Singers. The two coiffures belong to a pretty blonde and a striking brunette who are the sugar and spice of the group and the in struments belong to the seven young men with whom they will appear tonight at 8 p.m. in Me morial Hall. Tickets are on sale at the GM Information desk at fifty cents for students and one dollar for date or spouse. Serendipity, translated from the original Greek, means an "unexpected discovery of a new and happy event," and so it is with this remarkable group of attractive and wholesome youngsters. - Bryan Sennett, leader of the Serendipities, originally formed a trio along with Brooks Hatch and Mike Brovsky at the Uni versity of Colorado, , Along With Kenan hold Jubilee in Kenan because "it's . wall to wall dirt right now." The field is a mass of mud and sprinkler systems, and according to workers it won't be ready "Oh, for about six weeks." And that's no good because Jubilee is scheduled for a week from Friday.

"Once this initial step is tak en, you can relax and wait for answers at least that's the way I did it," he continues. "My first recruit was Brooks Hatch, a fellow student who I discov ered played the congo drum, banjo, and guitar. "Next came Mike Brovsky, another singer who joined us, and we became fairly popular at campus parties and dances. But it was obvious that if a trio was successful, we should add more people to the group. "So again the notice was posted and it worked just fine. In ten days we added a bassist, Bob Young; a twelve - string guitarist, John Madden; and a tenor guitarist, Jon Arbenz. placements. Whether the annual spring 'rites are held under the flagpole in Polk square, or in the lower women's quad, or in the Forest Theatre, they will be held we have been assured. The decision on the site will be made by Thursday. Photo by Jock Lauterer. Stadium . . . spent all day Monday survey ing the campus for another site and has come up with at least two possible locations for Jubi lee. "The best spot we've found is Polk Place (around the flag pole near South Building). It's best because it has a natural set ting, almost as good as Kenan Stadium." Henry said he was disappoint ed Jubilee, couldn't be held in Kenan, "because I had confi dence that once there the spec tators would have . enjoyed the show." : He said there is "no chance at all'.' that Jubilee will be held on the lawn outside GM. "It's important that there is an ade quate natural setting so we don't have a repeat perform ance of last year." The second location that Hen ry said he was eyeing is the mall' between . the three girls' dorms, Mclver, Alderman, and Kenan. "That's a big area and it has a decent setting," he said. Henry said a final decision will be made by Thursday on the location of the festival. "This new change is a nuis ance, but we should have every thing straightened out after the meeting Thursday," he said. Two other possible locations were ruled out yesterday. For est Theater does not have the room to accommodate 5-7,000 peoples and Navy field is "ex cellent as far as facilities go but it lacks setting," Henry said. He stressed that it was im portant that there be an effec tive means to control access to the performances, "setting" in his words. "We'll use security people (campus police) and rope-off for control. We won't have any outsiders this year." No one will be admitted to Jubilee without an ID or a guest, card, which can be obtained at GM. One ID will admit two people, and the faculty may pick up guest cards. Henry added, "We don't think the mess caused by JubiJre will be so bad this year. Everyone is more aware of the -situation, especially because of newspaper publicity and the recent events concerning the location of Jubi lee." Last year Jubilee caused re percussions over the State con- wvwvvsw 'wmwwfM-tt--- --sjots 3 ' . " lit w 4 i A . ' , V IK "01 No, Don't Let The Rain Come Down" : i cerning the conduct of many of the "outside" spectators. There were some reports of assaults by service men on UNC stu dents. Just before vacation a rally was held to protest the move of Jubilee from the GM lawn to Kenan Stadium. About 100 men gathered near a lamp post in the lower quad to hear Stu dent Body President Paul Dick son and rally organizer Frank Tew speak. Dickson supported the move to Kenan Stadium, and Tew spoke against the move. The small group marched through the lower and upper quads and finally past New East, where the Student Legislature was m - session, and then disbanded. Tew had announced that an other demonstration would bo held as soon as possible after the vacation ended. After Dickson had publically supported the move to Kenan Stadium he was accused by a University Party legislator of b ing "a prop-man for the long finger of South Building." Dickson said yesterday, "I'm not ready to make a definite statement on the situation right now." He said that he had just learned of the most recent move himself. Dickson spoke to Henry about the loss of Kenan Stadium for over two hours yesterday. He said he will wait until the ad ministration decides on a defini nite location for Jubilee before he makes a statement. : The Graham Memorial Activ ities Board decided to ban alco holic beverages from Jubilcs this year because of the lack of control over the event last year when it was held on the GM lawn. The legislator who accused Dickson of giving in to South Building, Jim Smith, said that Dean William Long was more responsible for the Jubilee changes than Dickson or the ac tivities board. He said the "reformer ef South Building is trying ta change a 100-year-old tradition of drinking at Carolina," refer ring to Dean Long. Henry said that any regute tions about drinking were nc4 made by GM, but he did stress that controls over conduct al Jubilee this year would I; tighter than in the past. MM i - - V - Sing 'J
