Under this plan the first
1,000 students to buy date
tickets will be allowed to sit

iii i iih i t-i 1 1 1 jj i- vi i inpnr v;uf-rinn
on the south side. .
Other date ticket holders
will sit in the west end zone
entering through gate four. If
there are not enough seats in
the regular student section
the overflow will also sit in
the end zone. However, indi
cations from the Michigan
gime show there is little
threat of an overflow.
Kremer said some students
have already bought their
date tickets for the coming
game and that the tickets say
to enter gate one. However,
these students and their dates
will be admitted through gate
five, the regular student gate.
"We made the change be
cause students complained
about being away from the
student body and in the direct
heat of the sun. This plan will
put them close to the student
section and the sun will at
least be at their backs," Kra
mer said.
Another reason for the
change is that the Virginia
game has been designated as
Band Day. Bands from all
over the state will make their
yearly trip to preform in Ke
nan Stadium.
Kramer said there were sev
eral problems at Saturday's
game. Some freshmen failed
to pick up there seating tickets
after there I.D. caras were
punched at the gate. He also
said that students who wanted
to sit together should ask for
seats together.
After A Hard
DA NANG, Viet Nam The weary U. S. Ma-
rine platoon had just fought its way out of a Viet
Cong ambush when it got the word in the field: i;
"Word received from Saigon. Your shipment in :
the mail."
The shipment: two quarts of vodka, a fifth of i
bourbon, a pint of scotch, a bottle of pink cham- j
pagne and a bottle of screw driver mix.
A Navy hospital medic with the Marines, Lar- j
ry Freeman, placed the order from a calendar ;
put out by Al Rustice's liquor store in West Bab- :
ylon, N. Y. The calendar which Freeman picked j
up while on home leave, said, "We deliver any- j
where." i
The liquor arrived in Saigon Friday and was :
being flown to Da Nang, 380 miles away.
Lt. Donald McCloskey of Santa Barbara,
Calif., said he planned to let the platoon have the
liquor when it returns to Da Nang from the field.
"It will be held for a special occasion one
that doesn't affect their marksmanship," he said.
Rustice sent the liquor free and threw in an j
assortment of cheese dip, salted nuts, potato !
chips and a box of cigars. He added a quart of
scotch for Jhe company commander. An airline :
agreed to pick up the freight costs.
Freeman placed the order as a gag he has ;
never met Rustice.

handpicked for his job by Bob

Spearman, a UP member

"No one may say a word

Civil Rights
Tests Start
In State
From The Raleigh
News and Observer
WASHINGTON North
Carolina will be a major test
ing ground for new legal keys
designed to open job doors for
qualified Negroes on produc
tion IW2S, at office desks, and
behind retail counters.
At the same time, the effort
will test two differing meth
ods of civil rights action.
The effort was signaled
Wednesday when the NAACP
filed formal charges of racial
discrimination against a roll
call of top North Carolina
retail chains, textile indus
tries, and innkeepers.
The charges were lodged in
the U. S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission,
headed by Franklin D. Roose
velt Jr.
Forty stores, plants, or
branches were cited, mostly
in the eastern communities of
Fayetteville, Jacksonville,
Wallace, and New Bern.
The specific charges were
developed during the summer
by volunteer field workers for
the old-line civil rights organ
izations. The North Carolina com
plaints make up about 10 per
cent of the workload of the
new federal agency, which
went to work 90 days ago as
the newest offspring of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Under the commission's pro
ceedings, each specific com
plaint will be investigated by
a staff member of the agency.
If the investigation produces
a recommendation for action,
the five - member commission
itself then considers it, for
mally seeks mediation of lb
complaint with the complain
ant and the firm charged
with discrimination.
The specific complaints
were lodged against such
widespread firms as Burling
ton Industries, Belk's depart
ment stores, Sears Roebuck,
Carolina Telephone and Tele
graph, Piggly-Wiggly food
stores, Howard Johnson's eat-and-sleep
chain, and Ameri
can Bakeries.
NAACP officials privately
are elated at the field work
: of the North Carolina NAACP
in quickly moving against
such blue ribbon retail and
industrial firms.
: At the same time, they
feel that North Carolina is the
: perfect testing ground for the
: legal methods, for two rea-
sons.

: ably has more qualified Ne
gro job-seekers than any oth

From The Associated Press
China Claims It Downed Plane
TOKYO Communist China charged that a U. S. plane
"intruded" into China's Hainan Island and was shot down by
Chinese aircraft today.
A broadcast heard here identified the pilot of the F104
fighter as Capt. Philips E. Smith (hometown not given). It said
he was captured "when he parachuted from his plane and
tired to flee."
The broadcast claimed the plane was shot down over Hoihow,
on the northern shore of the island, or just south of the
mainland.
It gave this account:
"The U. S. Plane intruded into China's territorial air apace
from west of Hainan Island at 1100 hours today. It penetrated
deep into the air space of Hoihow and carried out military
provcations at 1132 hours. Chinese aircraft promptly took off
and intercepted it. The U. S. Fighter plane was hit and fell.
"The U. S. Pilot, Capt. Philips E. Smith (Serial No. 4360),
was captured when he parachuted from his plane and tried
to flee."

said they shot down two Indian jet fighters, captured two tanks,
and took 143 Indian prisoners.
Diplomatic activity in the Pakistani capital continued but
there were no Pakistani comments on the U. N. cease-fire
resolution or the Soviet proposal for an Indian-Pakistani summit
meeting in the Soviet Union.

Dickson Refuses To Resign
In Spite Of Severe Pressure
By ERNIE McCRARY
DTH Editor
A group of eight student
leaders has asked Student
Body President Paul Dickson
to resign because of circum
stances created by his con
viction of a campus code of
fense last month.
Dickson was found guilty of
helping a woman student
break the rule against enter
ing a closed fraternity house
and was given an official rep
rimand by the Men's Honor
Council. The coed, a visiting
student, was suspended from
school here by the Women's
Honor Council. Dickson's sen
tence carries no penalty ex
cept, a notation of the offense
on the back of bis permanent
record card.
Dickson has said he will re
fuse the demand made in the
letter, which was presented to
him late Sunday night. The
signers of the letter are: Van
MacNair, chairman of the
Men's Council; Leith Merrow,
chairman of the Women's
Council; Gray Reeves, wom
en's attorney general; John
Ingram, men's attorney gen
eral; Sonny Pepper, president
of the Men's Residence Coun
cil; Frank Martin, president
of the Interfratemity Council;
Penny Scovil, chairman of the
Women's Residence Council;
and Jeri Moser, chairman of
the Carolina Women's Coun
cil.
The letter says: "Because of
the deepening crisis surround
ing the question of your con
tinuance in office, we the un
dersigned feel compelled to
clarify our collective position
for the entire University com
munity.
"When the University ad
ministration issued you an ul
timatum to resign, all of us
intervened in your behalf,
risking our reputations and
personal influence with the
administration, because we
deeply felt that the proper ju
dicial processes must always
be maintained. As a result of
this intervention you are again
presented with the opportuni
ty of honorably resigning."
Last Tuesday Dickson was
notified by the administration
that unless he resigned the
presidency his judicial case
would be reopened for review
by a faculty board. About a
dozen student leaders went to
the administration Wednesday,
protesting what they called its
coercive tactics" and "per
version of the judicial sys
tem." Dickson did not partici
pate in that meeting.
The administration recon
sidered its stand and Thurs
day Dickson was notified that
the ultimatum had been with
drawn. He was told that there
would be no threat of further
judicial action in the case, and
the decision of whether or not
to resign was his own once
again.

Dickson spent the weekend
considering his course of ac
tion, and told Honor Council
Chairman Van MacNair Sun
day night that he intends to
stay in office. He was then
presented with the letter de
manding his resignation.
It says: "The following rea
sons compel us to conclude
that your continuance in of
fice relegates our Student Gov
ernment to a position of total
impotence:
"(1) Although we affirm
that ,as a student, you have
fulfilled your obligations to the
student judiciary, we place a
far greater importance on the
president's position as the
elected head of our entire sys
tem of honor, and on his re
sponsibility to protect the in
tegrity of Student Government
and that of the entire Univer
sity community. It is clear that
the continuance of the present
situation can serve only to
undermine all respect for our
Student Government and its
traditional authority.
"(2) When this entire mat
ter becomes public knowledge,
and it surely will, the stu
dents, faculty, administration,
and trustees of this institution
will be placed in a position
untenable in the eyes of the

Dicksan Calls
On Students
To Decide
3
There have been many rum
ors on campus during the past
week regarding my conduct
this summer. I was charged
with a Campus Code violation
and given an official repri
mand for being a party in the
violation of the Fraternity
Visiting Agreement. The offi
cial reprimand which I re
ceived is in accord with form
er decisions by the Council.
This matter and its effect on
Student Government and the
University community have
weighed heavily on my mind
for the past five weeks, and
I have sought the advice of
many students, faculty, ad
ministrators, and friends in
the State. I wish to thank
them for their advice which
has been considered carefully.
WTith the best interests of
Student Government in mind,
I have decided that I shall not
resign. .
I have reached this decis
ion after many hours of per
sonal thought. It has not been
an easy decision to make, but
I am confident in the Deuei
that it was one which was
made honestly and with a sin
cere regard for Student Gov
ernment and the University.
I believe in a Student Gov
ernment which must at all
cost maintain its integrity in
relation to the Administration.
There have been pressures, to
be true, pressures which were
motivated by concern for the
University, but pressures nev
ertheless. These pressures
have not ceased.
The easiest course for me
to have taken would have
been to have submitted to
these pressures. As long as I
am President I cannot. To let
any group of individuals other
than the students themselves
determine who should be and
remain their President would
be to abrogate the responsi
bility placed in me last spring.
There is much to do in tbe
coming months. Student Gov
ernment needs the vigorous
support of every student.
Paul Dickson, III
President of the
Student Body
The DTH Needs You
The Daily Tar Heel is in dire
and desperate need of a beau
tiful secretary to organize and
beautify our offices. The pay
is good. Men need not apply.
Founded February 23. 1893
gn
of the University administra
tion in your case, we are com
pelled to agree with them
that honor and the well-being
of Student Government in par
ticular and the University in
general demand your resigna
tion. It is abundantly clear
that the University adminis
tration no longer recognizes
you as the representative head
of this student body.
"(4) Your continuance in of
fice places insurmountable ob
stacles in the path of each of
us as we attempt to carry out
our responsibilities to the stu
dent body, and should your
position remain unchanged,
we have serious reservations
about our ability to continue
effective service to this gov
ernment." A spokesman for the group
said each person who signed
the letter did so with the un
derstanding that it would be
made public. Copies are to be
sent to UNC President William
C. Friday, Chancellor Paul F.
Sharp, Vice Chancellor J. C.
Sitterson, Dean of Student Af
fairs C O. Cathey, Dean of
Men William G. Long and
Dean of Women Katherine K.
Carmichael.
The letter concludes, "We
are advising you in good faith,
and we chaDenge you to show
where we have failed to sup
port you when your position
was tenable. Certainly we
have the right to expect that
your concern for the preser
vation of the ideals of our
University community will
override personal ambitldn
and will dictate your final de
cision. "When you assumed the
presidency you surrendered
your right to personal indis
cretions. Your every act be
came subject to the scrutiny
of this community and, in
deed, the scrutiny of the en
tire state.
'we call upon you in tbe
name of honor to have the
courage to tender your resig
nation as president of tbe Stu
dent tioay without further de
lay." uickson issued a statement
yesterday afternoon saying
that "wuh the best interest ot
student government in mind,"
he had aeciued not to resign.
He called resignation "the
easiest course" and saM '
decision """e many
hours of personal thought."
(See accompanying story for
text of DicKson's statement.)
Spokesmen for the group
which signed the letter said
early last night that it had
not been decided what furth
er action, if any, would be
taken since Dickson has re
fused to resign.
Honor Council Chairman
MacNair said, however,
"speaking for myself, I wouW
say that Paul's actions have
widened the gun Detween roe
judicial and executive branch
es of Student Government. I
think it will be almost impos
sible for me to work with him
and I personally feel some
further action will be neces
sary." Fire Erupts
In Old East
A transformer fire in the
basement of New East knock
ed out power in McCorkel
place yesterday afternoon for
about an hour.
Campus Police Chief Arthur
J. Beaumont said a slow oil
leak was the cause of the fire
which was discovered about
1:30 p.m.
It took maintainence men
about an hour to replace tbe
ftl flOQ transformer and restore
power to the area.
Beaumont said people in
New East had been smelling
something burning since last
Friday but couldn't locate the
source.
