Founded Feb. 23. 1893 students E or Classroom Complaints By J OHN JENNRICH DTII Staff Writer Students who have gripes about the way their classes are being run, but have been afraid to say anything for fear of angering the man who hands out the grades are going to get their big chance this month. Over 300 courses and the pro fessors who teach them will soon go before the critical eye of their students when a pro gram culminating years of prep aration is finally put into ef fect by the Student Government Academic Affairs Committee. This evaluation, which has nothing to do with the Course Evaluation Booklet, consists of a 40 - item questionnaire ad ministered by each DarticiDai- xiig iu:uuy memoer to nis stu dents. All answers are given anonymously. Courses are evaluated at the request . of the professor, and only he will ever see the re sults. Classroom data, compiled by an IBM comptuter, will not oe aecessioie to any student, administrative, or faculty groups. The purpose of the program is to provide constructive feed- oacK to the instructor involved Two UNC students are main ly responsible for this program. Franklin Adkinson, senior psychology major from Forest City, has been working on the course evaluation program since ms freshman year. He is now in charge of the computer pro gramming and other details of the evaluation. John Froneberger, senior chemistry and political science major from Lincolnton, is act ing chairman of the academic affairs committee and has -w m i i is 'Of Vice-President - - , ... , .i Get New worked on this program for a year and a half. Both men will enter medical school next fall, Adkinson at Johns Hopkins and Froneberger at UNC. Letters and application cards were sent to 700 faculty mem bers during the week of April 5-10. Adkinson said "any in structor teaching, a university sponsored course in Chapel Hill, in any department, graduate or undergraduate, may request and obtain this service." He said their "wildest dream" was evaluation of 100 - 150 courses this spring, but re sponse has been so enthusiastic that the committee now expects over 300. This would involve as many as 7,500 to 10,000 ques tionnaires. Laurel, Hardy Films Tonight Two films starring the famous comedy team of Stanley Laurel and Oliver Hardy will be shown tonight at 8 in Carroll Hall. The program will be a memorial tribute to Laurel who died re cently. The movies to be shown are "The Music Box," and "Swiss Miss." "Music Box" concerns Laurel and Hardy's futile and hilarious efforts to deliver an old, up right piano to a house which can be approached only by climbing a very high terraced rise of steps. In "Swiss Miss," Laurel and Hardy are lugging a piano across a swaying rope bridge a thousand feet over a Swiss gorge. They are halfway across when they meet a gorilla com-, ing from the other side.

Celebrate The Saw Outlet When this study was begun, the academic affairs commit tee consulted 15 to 20 other uni versities with such programs. In the spring of 1964 a prelimi nary questionnaire was admin istered to ten classes compris ing 500 students. Revision of the questionnaire was done with the help of the UNC psychology de partment. Last fall, Froneberger and half the committee evaluated this pilot project. From their experience, it was decided that data processing was essential to nandie the great bulk of classroom data.; The Durham Telephone Co., has donated to the committee the use of its equipment. After students have marked the IBM cards with special electrograph ic pencils, this equipment punches holes in the cards, which are then processed at UNC's computation center. Aft er analysis, the information for a particular course is given to the instructor. Adkinson said that, "For the first time, a significant Dortion of. the student body will be in volved in course evaluation to provide informative feedback." The administration of the test is done during class and takes 10 to 15 minutes. Adkinson stressed that all data will re main anonymous. Very few of the professors who have declined this course evaluation have done so on the grounds of opposition to the study. Some are retiring in June, are currently on leave, are teaching extension courses not in Chapel -Hill, or feel that their classes are so small they already have adequate feed back. (Continued on Page S) By ERNEST ROBL DTII Staff Writer "America, not only for itself, but for the cause of mankind, must be united. "We must never permit vengeful radicals to dominate the American scene; there is no room in America for hate." These were the words of Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey Sunday as he spoke at Bennett Place just outside Durham at ceremonies commemorating the last major surrender of the Civil War. Possibly in Humphrey's audi ence there were some who only the previous afternoon had walked through downtown Dur ham in the robes of the Ku KluxKlan. Humphrey said, "We must never permit the spirit of radi calism to poison the minds and the hearts of the American peo ple. This is the real lesson we can learn from the Bennett Place. "I believe the American peo ple have learned this lesson. And now our great nation under the leadership of Presi dent Johnson is beginning a new era of unity." . .

His strongest and most lengthy acclamation came from the statement that there is no room in this country for hate and vengeance; he repeated this statement several times in his speech. Speaking about the ceremon ies at Bennett Place, Humphrey said that he had often been dis turbed by the reenactment of historic battles ... "For too often they tend to make war seem romantic, to glorify the bloodshed. "War is not romantic. War is ugly, cruel and senseless . . . Sherman was right, 'War is hell.' "We are not gathered today to commemorate a war nor are we gathered to commemo rate the end of a war. "We are here to pay tribute to the valiant men of the North and South who met 100 years ago here at Bennett Place to seek not victory, not vengeance, but to seek peace." Humphrey said that only an undivided America will be able to carry the burden of freedom in the world. He termed this a JT mm mm v College Newspaper i I m.

The Vice - President com mended North Carolina leaders, saying, "North Carolina is not known as a progressive state by accident. I believe the South will help lead the way during this new era of national unity. "I believe the people of the South will help us lead the way as we fight to overcome the ancient enemies of man ig norance, disease, poverty, and injustice." Humphrey also read excerpts from President Johnson's proc lamation on the Bennett Place commemoration and the joint resolution of Congress on the centennial observance. Humphrey was introduced by Gov. Dan K. Moore who also made some brief remarks about the Bennett Place surrender. About 4,000 persons braved somewhat chilly and slightly windy weather to attend the ceremonies commemorating the surrender of Confederate Gen. Joseph E. Johnston to Union Gen. William T. Sherman at the farm home of James Bennett on April 26, 1865. J Photo by Ernest Robl. Of Smiles, Speeches, And Handshakes At The mm 1965 McNam Of 'Flagrant From DTII Wire Reports Heavy ; communist casualties in South Viet Nam have forced North Viet Nam to start send ing regular army units into bat tle there, Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara said yes terday. McNamara reported in a news conference this new turn in what he called "progressively more flagrant and uncon strained" aggression by North Viet Nam. Evidence gathered in the last month, McNamara said, has confirmed the presence in a cen tral highlands province of a bat talion of the ! regular North Vietnamese Army. McNamara said, "There is no military requirement for the use of nuclear weapons in the cur rent situation.". He added that no useful pur-, pose can be served by "specu lation on remote contingencies" in which such weapons might be brought into play. This did not alter a disclosure over the weekend that the U.S. government is retaining the op tion to use nuclear weapons in North Viet Nam in the proper circumstances perhaps, for example, if Communist China should enter the war on a mass scale. . McNamara discussed the sit uation against a background of nearly three months of almost daily U. . S. and South Vietna mese air bombing of highways, railroads, bridges and other targets on the North Vietnamese routes used to infiltrate men and arms into South Viet Nam. "The carefully controlled air strikes will continue as neces sary to impede the infiltration and to persuade the JNortn v lei namese leadership that their Other speakers included R. O. Everett Sr,, a Durham attorney who has served as chairman of the Bennett Place Memorial Commission for a number of years. He expressed the hope that the. meeting Sunday would have the same effect on the next century as the earlier one did on the past century. His son, R. O. Everett Jr., served as chairman for the ceremonies. : Other participants in the Bennett Place rites included 6th District Rep. Horace R. 'Korne gay and Sen. B. Everett Jor dan. . Before the ceremonies, Vice President and Mrs. Humphrey toured the two rebuilt Bennett Place structures. Also participating in the com memorative events were the band of the 82nd Airborne Di vision, Ft. Bragg, conducted by Ralph Liebchen, and the Cardi nals, a singing , group from North Carolina College, with Constance Allen conducting. The ceremonies opened at 3 p.m. with the national anthem and concluded shortly before 5 p.m. with the audience singing "America." Humphrey arrived in North Carolina Saturday afternoon. v.. lite . p ,TT - . r .''-.. ' " V ' ' , i " ' ara Accuses aggression against the south must stop," McNamara said. SOVIET STATEMENT The Soviet Union yesterday launched a general attack on U. S. foreign policy, including U.

Fedorenko repeated Soviet charges that the United States had used toxic gases in Viet Nam and asserted this was "a crime against mankind, a viola tion of the norms of interna tional law, and the trampling of the elementary procedures of morality." He declared further that the United States had nuclear sub marines in the Southeast Asia area, as well as missiles with nuclear warheads. He suggest ed that the United States is now regarding "another Asian coun try" as an objective of the same kind of weapons used against Nagasaki and Hiroshi ma during World War II. Fedorenko demanded the dis mantling of all foreign military bases and the withdrawal of military forces from foreign soil. In this connection, he said the United States had more than a million men stationed on for eign territory. Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., de nounced Secretary of State Dean Rusk and McNamara in the Senate today and said both "should have been removed months ago." Morse, attacking U. S. policy in South Viet Nam as "immor al and Godless," accused spokesmen for the Johnson ad ministration of employing "smear tactics" against him and other critics of the policy. Taking the floor on a point of personal privilege, Morse took issue with what he said was McNamara's assertion he did not believe Russia and Red China would enter the war. 1 j -J j if .A!
