"The South's Largest College Newspaper" Founded Feb. 23, 1893 CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, MAY 14, 1965 Volume 72, Number 159 wm Three N. G. Congressmen Review Higher Education By ERNEST ROBL DTH Staff Writer Governor Moore is not pro viding the necessary leader ship, . particularly in the field of education, Senator Ralph Scott of Alamance said Wed nesday night in G-errard Hall. Scott, who is chairman of th Senate Committee on High er Education, made his re marks during a panel discus sion on "Problems of the Uni versity and the Role of the General Assembly." Referring to the Governor's address on higher education, Scott said, "His speech was good but you've got to have something other than a good speech. "But" then of course he has the miimps," he said. Returning to a serious note, Scott said that there was a feeling of frustration among Students Cannot Judge Teachers Says Prof essor . s o ... During a Wednesday night speech . in Joyner Dormitory, Dr. R. L. Hardison of the De partment7 of English said that students are not fully .quali fied to evaluate their teachers' performance. "In'most cases," he said, "students see the teacher in only one class, and it's hard to make decisions that way." "There is a need," he said, Vto judge the teacher's per formance over a long period of time and in several differ end courses." - t Hardison said that depart-5 mental committees "can make these decisions since they are . largely composed of the. teach- er's colleagues." "Even now," he said, the student's opinion is taken in to account. Advisors for in stance, can learn if registra tion for a certain teacher's course is falling off." Hardison, who was not speaking officially for the De partment of English, said that students at times make their opinions known through pri vate discussions with faculty members. Commenting on Dr. William Goodykoontz, whose failure to be rehired caused the recent publish or perish controversy on campus, Hardison said he is "pleasant as a person. And he apparently stimulates his students." Hardison, however, said his remarks were not "re lated to the present contro versy." He said the Department of English does not stress pub lishing as much as many oth er departments. Hardison considers tenure important. "Without it," he said, "UNC might lose its ac creditation. Tenure is also im portant for reasons of academ ic freedom." Hardison said tenure at UNC usually starts with the rank of associate professor. "Things have greatly changed since I started teach- "At the end of three years, you were generally promoted JV. . Right-Wingers Hit By Sen. Scott By DAVE ROTHMAN DTII Staff Writer Speaking Wednesday night in Ehringhaus, State Sen. Ralph Scott of Alamance County discussed right - wing extremism in North Carolina. Scott said that John Birch Society members had nearly gained control of Burlington's city council during the last election. He said that Kinston is also a center of Birchist activity. But, the Senator added,' this extremism is frequently on the decline. He cited Burlington as an example. Scott accused "a vocal few" of "using the same stuff as the communists do. If they don't agree with what you say, they harass you to death.!' Scott said that right - wing groups had "kept fluoride out of Burlington's water supply." He said that the John Birch Society in North Carolina sometimes assumes the role of the Ku Klux Klan and the White Citizens Council. Scott said the Birch Society and similar groups have or ganized a newspaper letter writing campaign. The Senator tsaid that there the legislators, many of whom were willing to enact legisla tion for more and better high er education, but were lack ing leadership. Other participants on the panel were Rep. R. D. Mc Millan of Robeson, chairman of the House Committee on Higher Education, and Rep. Don Stanford of Orange, a member of both the Appropri ations and Higher Education Committees of the House. Stu dent Body President Paul Dickson moderated. An audience of approxi mately 30 people attended the session, about half this num ber being students. Consolidat ed University President Wil liam Friday and Chancellor -Paul F. Sharp were present at the meeting but did not participate in any of the dis cussion. Topics covered during the ing (at another school)," he said. "Back when I first taught; a Ph.D. to begin with received $3,300 a year as an instructor. or told to look elsewhere. This system had obvious dis advantages, but it allowed a period of apprenticeship." Hardison said the old sys tem also permitted "a more thorough evaluation of a man's performance. "But today," he said, "the situation is different. Rapid promotion of young faculty members is r necessary un less the University wants to lose them." . s . Ph.D.'s Hardison said, to day generally start as assist ant professors. Hardison said "the failure of the academic community be tween 1930 and 1935" is one reason behind the present teacher shortage. Salaries, he said, were al lowed to remain extremely low, and "many people did not consider it worth their trouble to do graduate work." He said that "active involve ment on a national level" is needed to keep UNC faculty members informed of major developments in their fields. But, he said, "active in volvement" does not neces sarily mean publishing. Har dison said it could also refer to membership in national academic groups or on aca demic committees. Teaching and research are both important, Hardison said. "Students ask questions, and you have to find some way of coping with the problems they raise," he said. He explained that research can improve teaching stand ards. "The more you know in your field," he said, "the bet ter you can teach it." The YMCA Dorm Speaker Program sponsored Hardison's talk. Chancellor Sharp was originally scheduled to speak but was unable to come be cause of an appointment with state legislators. "are large numbers of "Im peach Earl Warren" signs along( some of the state's high ways! Throughout his talk, Scott often referred to the right wingers as "a vocal few." Ac cording to Scott, as people be come aware of the Birch So ciety's extremism, the danger from the right decreases. Commenting on the nation wide movement to call a sec ond constitutional convention, Scott said that such an event could possibly lead to a right wing takeover. He said there was "enough confusion during the convention held in Wash ington's time." Scott said that right - wing extremism is not limited to North Carolina. "When Wallace came here," he said, "I got an airmail letter from California suggest ing I meet him in Raleigh that's how far -- reaching these activities are." Scott said Gov. Dan Moore has many supporters in the state in favor of the speaker ban law. He hinted that this perhaps explains Moore's re luctance to work for the law's repeal. one and a half hour discus sion ranged from the speaker ban law to the image of UNC. "Maybe something can be done about it yet," Rep. Mc Millan said about the speaker ban law, noting that there is considerable sentiment in the General Assembly for at least an amendment. "We have not given up yet." There was some disagree ment about the image of the university in North Carolina. McMillan said, "The image is not as bad as we tend to think it is, with more people than ever wanting to come here." Scott disagreed, "In the bar bershops and filling stations where the vote is the image is bad." He said that the general opinion about the university was that there is "a Communist under every bush, and there are a lot of bushes (down here." Terming the apathy of po tential supporters of the uni versity as dangerous, Scott mentioned the speaker ban as a prime indication of the feel ing about the university. "The small colleges had better wake up, the thing's far more seri ous than a lot of us realize." Scott was by far the most outspoken of the panel mem bers and also the most criti cal of the Moore administra tion. One of Scott's major targets was Moore's failure to push a bond issue for higher educa tion. In reply to a question as to how students could help to im prove the image of the uni versity, particularly among the legislators, Stanford said, "Address yourself to the peo ple." Saying that there is no sim ple answer to the question, Stanford advised, "Do it quiet ly. Smile. Don't scream when it hurts that only arouses suspicion." McMillan responded by say ing that acting responsible helps more than anything else, and "upward of 99 per cent of the students here are re sponsible people." Paul Dickson asked the pan el how much academic free dom a university should have, and again members of the panel voiced differing opin ions. McMillan favored "complete academic freedom within reasonable bounds," and add ed that everyone makes mis takes occasionally. Scott was quick to reply that he thought that the Uni versity should not have as much freedom "as people out in California want. You've got to have some discipline and students ought to handle some of it themselves." In reply to a member of the audience Scott said that at tempts to petition the state legislature were probably one of the most ineffective ways of trying to get changes made. "Back in your home coun ty, talk to the senator and rep resentative they are the ones you and your parents vote for," Scott urged repeat edly. Scott later gave a talk at Ehringhaus Residence Hall. Moore's support, Scott said, is badly needed even to amend the law. He said he doubts it can be repealed outright. Any changes, he said, probably would involve merely amend ing th? ban. The Senator said that stu dents are capable of making their own political judgments. "When a Communist spoke at Wake Forest," he said, "the students there asked him questions. After the question ing, he was as frustrated a man as can be. "I'm not worried about somebody praising commun ism and you all becoming communist," the Senator told the Ehringhaus audience. "The most effective way to get rid of the ban," Scott said, "is to talk to a legisla tor from your own district. "He cares about your par ents' votes; the fellow repre senting the district 200 miles away does not. "I think it is important," he said, "for students to think of the University's image in the filling station or the barber shop. "Remember," Scott said, "the fellow working in a mill or 3 filling station is paying 3 ON THE BEACH is where most of us would like to be this weekend. This sunrise shot is dedicated to all those who are going to stay Final Decision: Braden Covered By Speaker Ban University administration yesterday confirmed its deci sion that the University can not provide a forum for Carl Braden, civil rights leader and information director for the Southern Conference Edu cation Fund, because he falls under the jurisdiction of the speaker ban law. , Braden's appearance . here" was to have been sponsored by UNC - NAACP. The group was first , informed that Uni versity officials considered Braden to come under the law's restriction Monday by Dean of Student Affairs C. O. Cathey. Cathey based this decision on a newspaper account from the Knoxville (Tenn.) Journal which stated that Braden had been identified by the FBI as a communist and on a letter from Braden to Miller in which the proposed speaker said that some people might Johnson Accuses Chinese Of 'Pushing' In Viet Nam WASHINGTON (AP) Pres ident Johnson accused Red China yesterday of pushing the Viet Nam war for Peking's own goal "domination over all Asia" at whatever cost to her allies. He held out the prospect of U. S. aid to com munist North Viet Nam if Hanoi turns to peace. Johnson moved publicly to persuade Hanoi that its own best interests differ from com munist China's in a speech devoted mainly to the contin uing massive U. S. economic aid program for South Viet Nam. for a large part of your edu cation." Scott discussed the prob lems of financing state insti tutions. "You can't make much political hay out of a bond issue for education," he said. North Carolina's Negro col leges, Scott said, "don't have the proper facilities and don't have good high schools behind them." "I can't blame the Negroes for complaining about these schools," he said. Discussing the 1964 elec tions, Scott said: "If the Re publicans had nominated somebody like Scranton a lot of people wouldn't have sup ported Moore. "It was fear of Goldwater that did it," he said. He con siders President Johnson's vic tory in North Carolina great ly responsible for Moore's. Scott said that East Carolina "runs the state." He said county lines have been al tered to increase Eastern Car olina's representation in the legislature. Between 20 and 30 persons attended Scott's talk, which was part of the YMCA Speak er Program. call him a communist. NAACP representatives ap pealed to Cathey and to Chan cellor Paul F. Sharp to "re consider their position" on the matter earlier this week. Concerning yesterday's de cision, Charles Miller, presi dent of UNC - NAACP, said yesterday: NAACP I wish to state that we are extremely disappoint ed in the University's action. "By deciding that Carl Bra den is a 'known communist' on the basis of unsupported testimony by a single person in front of two groups, notori ous for their opposition to civil rights, the . University seems to have joined that por tion of society for whom ac cusation is equivalent to con viction, and any accusation of communism is irrefutable. "We had expected more from the University than this." "The third face of war in Viet Nam" to build a bet :cr economic life for the Viet namese "is the most , im portant battle of all," the pres ident said in a nationally broadcast talk to editorial car toonists meeting him at the White House. "It was there the illiter ate, the hungry, the sick before the war began," he said. "It will be there when peace has come. "And so will we not with soldiers and planes not with bombs and bullets but with all the wondrous weapons of peace. "And then, perhaps, we can share that gracious task with all the people of Viet Nam north and south alike." Johnson listed armed con flict as the first face of the war and said the North Viet namese communists "a r e slowly beginning to realize" that the United States will unwaveringly pit unlimited re sources of force to prevent conquest by force. It was in naming the sec ond face of the war "the quest for a political solution" that Johnson focused on (Continued on Page 3) FunAtWC There's action and wom en available in Greensboro this weekend.

Closed Circut Viet Nam Debate Set For Carroll Carroll Hall has been added to the list of locations where students, faculty and towns people can see the "hot-line" broadcast of the national for um on Viet Nam Saturday, it was announced yesterday. Earlier, - Gerrard Hall and Roland Parker 3, second floor GM, had been named. Concerning the forum, Stu dent Body President Paul Dickson said yesterday: "The national debate on the question of Viet Nam, sched uled for this Saturday, May 15, is a great advancement in student communication. To my knowledge this is the first time there has been a large scale debate directed primari ly to academic circles, and I believe this will create a good deal more thought among stu dents in areas with which they should be vitally concerned. "Only by questioning poli cies with which one doesn't agree or defending those with which one does, can a person become more knowledgeable about his country and can his country know what he as a citizen wants. For these rea sons I would urge everyone who possibly can to go to ei thr Gerrard Hall, Roland Par ker Lounge No. 3, or Carroll Hall on Saturday to hear this debate and to discuss the questions raised." The broadcast, direct from Washington, is scheduled to begin at 12:30, featuring a "confrontation" between Mc George Bundy, key presiden tial adviser on Viet Nam. and George Kahin, director of the Southeast Asian Studies Program at Cornell Universi ty. A "reactor panel" in Wash ington of eight academicians four supporting Govern ment Dolicy and four opposed will question Bundy and Kahin and will join in discus sion of the issues. Following the . broadcast from Washington, a panel of UNC and Duke professors will continue discussion of the is sues, with the goal of evalua ting both governmental policy and the possible alternatives to this policy. Audience participation in the local discussion will be encouraged. Group Formed B y Law Will Oppose By ANDY MYERS DTII Staff Writer Students for Learning was organized yesterday by two UNC law students who feel that the goals of Students for Teachers (SFT) are "griev ously in error." The co-chairmen of Students for Learning (SFL), Doug Eisele and Troy Smith, said the group endorses the policy that "the administration ought to absolutely refuse any sug- ' gestion by the students that they be permitted to take a role in the selection, hiring or firing of teachers." Eisele, a third-year law stu dent and former editor of the Daily Tar Heel, plans to con tact Chancellor Paul F. Sharp today to arrange an appoint ment "as soon as possible" to discuss the goals of SFL. The group, Eisele said, "doesn't plan to demonstrate; we have more important things to do. "I feel there are a lot of students on this campus," he continued, "who feel as we do, that administrative mat ters ought to be left to the administration, not the stu dents." A petition is being circulat ed by SFL which affirms the right of the administration "to weigh the various factors in volved and to conclude from its own knowledge, without a duty to justify its decision to discontented students, the sta tus of any faculty member at the University." The petition says also that it is the student's main duty to develoD "his own " tn inr1 . tnrougn rigorous study . and classroom participation." Eis ele feels that students "are here to learn, not to teach, nor to select nor to take part in the selection of the faculty." As of yesterday 87 law stu dents had signed the petition, duc tne group will begin cir culation in "undergraduate circles" today. Students for Learning is in accord with "most of the goals" of SFT, Eisele said. "We support, as does SFT good teaching in . the class room, and we are for re search and publication. We believe, as does SFT, that teaching ability is of funda mental importance in the hir ing, promotion and retention of faculty members. And we admit, as SFT asserts, that publishing alone does not make a good teacher and scholar," the petition states. Eisele said, "I got tired of reading from day to day that the students want to run the University. I don't think they should." He stressed that SFL I ' f'r - K- --"V"i. :.: & ' ... ... .. if 'A R1 f THE WILD ONE Tex McGiil will demonstrate some spec tacular motorcycle manuevers at the Maverick House motor cycle Party May 23.

Students would hold no public rallies unless it becomes "necessary and desirable' Asked if he felt SFL would pick up substantial undergrad uate support, Eisele said, "I surely do." He added, "I am convinced the Chancellor will be delighted that there is an element in the student body that is in accord with his viewpoints in this matter." Eisele said that SFL was not concerned with whether the state legislature was in fringing upon the "unfettered right" of the UNC administra tion to hire and fire its own faculty.
