Pressure (Continued from Page 1) notes that this gap could be closed were the South to in crease its tax support for ed ucation by another five per cent: "Were the Southern states to adopt the expenditure pat tern of the Middle and Far Western states, and devote as much as 12 or 13 per cent of existing tax revenues to high er education, the region could immediately abolish any fi nancial constraint on the pro vision of hig-quality education and also partially close the gap of numbers." Cartter notes: "Other re gions of the nation can afford the luxury of simultaneous growth in all their colleges and universities. "The South, however, will dissipate its resources and continue to be a follower ra ther than a leader if it is not successful in establishing clear priorities."

According to Cartter's re port, North Carolina spends about 7.95 per cent of its total tax revenue on higher educa tion. Cartter ranked UNC third in average faculty compensa tion with $11,300. Of the insti tutions studied, Duke ranked first with $12,800; Rice second, with $11,700; and Baylor-last with $7,600. Other institutions included were Virginia, $11,000; Van derbilt, $10,600; Texas, $10, 300; Houston, $10,200; Georgia Tech, $10,200; and Tulane and Florida State, $10,000.

The silver-haired million aire was the man who in 1926 provided the $275,000 for the building of Kenan Stadium. The 24,000-seat stadium was dedicated in 1927. Later Ken an provided the steel bleach ers which increased seating capacity to 44,000. He also donated $150,000 for a guest box and a new press box, and gave $28,000 for a field house: While at the University, Kenan was the discoverer, with Dr. Francis P. Venable, of the commercial use of car bide. He won letters here in foot ball and baseball, and was graduated in 1894 with a B.S. degree. LOST Circular gold watch with sapphire crystal and gold band.

Carver said the letter was written on behalf of the Le gion on the recommendation of the organization's legisla tive committee, headed by at torney John McRae of Char lotte. Dean of the Faculty James Godfrey said the letter to Fri day "came as a surprise. I was quite unprepared for a request of that nature to the president of this University." The University laws relat ing to faculty members' rights to express their own views contain this section: Grad School (Continued from Page 1) lag behind the rest of the country. Cartter said that none of the Southern institutions studied ranked with the na tions ten best, but that some placed in the category of the 10 next best on one or more of the rating scales used. Two of the reasons for keep ing Southern institutions out of the top rating were over all financial support and aver age faculty compensation. "The Southern universities fare better in the comparison of annual library expendi tures, the average falling be tween the first and second na tional groups ... In the 'mil lionaire' library class in the South today are Texas, Duke, Virginia, UNC, LSU, Florida, and Kentucky in approximate ly that order." According to Cartter's re port only Texas, UNC, Duke, Emory and Florida State scored above the norm for re search income for the third highest group of institutions, including 23rd through 48th.

Franklin St. 942-3754 (A) Academic freedom is the right of a faculty mem ber to be responsibly engaged in efforts to discover, speak, and teach the truth. It is the policy of the University to maintain and encourage full freedom, within the law, of inquiry, discourse, teaching, research, and publication and to protect any member of the academic staff against influ ences, from within or without the University, which would restrict him in the exercise of these freedoms in his area of scholarly interest. (B) The University recog nizes that in his role as citi zen, as to matters outside the area of his scholarly interest, the faculty member has the right to enjoy the same free doms as other citizens, with out institutional censorship or discipline, though he should avoid abuse of these freedoms. He should recognize that ac curacy, forthrightness and dig nity befit his association with the University and his posi tion as a man of learning. He should not represent himself as a spokesman for the University.

Bernard said if he had been required to accept those meet ing the minimum standards on a first-come, first-served basis, the freshman class would have been filled by the end of January. He is not required by law to accept all North Carolina high school graduates, Ber nard said. He was forced to operate on the basis of a freshman class of about 2,100. While it was possible for him to admit more than the 2,100 by projecting past withdraw als of applications, some de cision had to be made about rejections. By using the predicted grade average (proved to be 80 to 85 per cent accurate), Bernard was able to admit all those who stood a fair chance of success in the University, he said. Students who met the 1.6 average requirement but fell below the 2.0 line totaled 1,001. In addition, 188 North Carolina students who were qualified academically but did not com plete all requirements for their application were not ac cepted. Out - of - state freshmen are held to a higher standard than in-state students, because of the quota system which keeps the ratio of in-state to out-of state students at a constant level. Of the out-of-state students, 1,060 were rejected as not qualified and 1,482 were re jected because the quota had been filled. Those rejected be cause of the quota had lower predicted grade averages than those accepted. The University also received a total of 2,159 applications for transfer. Almost all of the 722 accepted as transfer students are rising juniors. Of the transfer group, .480 are wo men. . CONCERT SET Pianist Seima Epstein will play at 8 p.m. Tuesday in Hill Hall.
