The South's Largest College Xeicspapcr Vol. 74, No. 8 CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA JFRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 196; Founded February 23. 1893 Lyon Students Fascinated By Am erican Habits By SAM ROBINSON DTII News Editor (See Photo Page 3) Five recently - graduated business administration ma jors from the University of Lyon (Lyon, France) arrived on the Carolina campus for a five-day visit Tuesday. Their tour of the University is the next-to-last stop on an entire summer's journey around the eastern and south ern United States. Spokesman for the group, Andre Martin, 23, of Lyon, explained that the idea for the trip had come up shortly aft er the students had completed their second year in the three year course of study offered by the Lyon institution. "Our main purpose in com ing here," Martin said, "was to see the American people, especially American students, ia their own country, to see how they live and to learn more about the subjects for which we have been trained." Martin mentioned that the students had a double obliga tion to fulfill while here. "Half our fare was paid jointly by the University of Lyon and the Lyon Chamber of Commerce," he said, "in return for which we are to investigate certain areas of American business relations, learn as much about those areas as we can, and prepare written reports for our home Chamber of Com merce. "The other obligations, though, is to ourselves," he continued, "because we. did pay half our own fares our selves, so we're seeing every thing we can while we're here." Among the cities visited by the group are New York, Bos ton, Baltimore, Washington, Detroit, Chicago, Charleston, Miami, New Orleans, and At lanta. "We've covered a lot of territory this summer, all of it by bus. As you can imag ine, it's been pretty tiring, but the things we've seen have been worth every min ute of it." Asked which cities they pre ferred of those they'd seen, Martin unhesitatingly replied, "We all preferred the south ern cities, especially New Or leans and Atlanta because we felt more at home, more wel come there. People there seemed to really try to show us a pleasant time." Educational Aspects The conversation then shift ed to the educational aspects of the trip. At this time Mar tin indicated the four areas of study on which the group is supposed to make reports. They are: The American textile in dustry's production of Lames yarns (described by Martin as special gold or silver threads used in fashionable women's clothing and acces sories), American distribution of industrial paints and varnish es American labor efforts to get warrantees on annual wages in the automotive in dustry, and American aid to under developed countries: who is eligible, how it's distributed. QfjT3 REDDING, ifcytfnn-and-Mues artist who released sach bits as Mr. Pitiful and ftespect' last year will appear In Memorial Hall under the sponsorship of the Men's Res idence Council tonight. Accompanying Redding m bJs first concert on the Tar Heel campus will be bis band of 13 musicians and three sing ers. Tickets will cost $1.50 and will be available today In Y- Court from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and other technical aspects (concentration on this ques tion has been centered on the U.S. Government's Agency for International Developments). How was this group of Frenchmen impressed with the Americans they saw and met? Friendly "Generally speaking, every 'one has been most friendly," 'Martin commented. "We've been shown real hospitality everywhere we've gone. "Another thing that we con sider really valuable about this trip has been the oppor tunity to see contemporary American problems such as the Negro problem first hand," the group leader said. Asked about their views of American policies as com pared with those of General De Gaulle, the students ex pressed individual differences, some pro, some con. Martin again spoke for the group, however, when he said that Americans were making a serious mistake if they "confused French foreign pol icy with French personal at titudes toward Americans." In other remarks, the group laughed at the American males' practice of dating girls "just so they will be seen with a girl," and vice versa. "Peo ple over here seem to go out together just because it's the thing to do, not because they have any real interest in get ting to know each other, en joy the other's company, or intend to develop a meaning ful relationship between them." I.D. Cards The group also found that America is different in de manding I. D. cards when beer or other alcoholic beverages are purchased, in all the talk ing that seems to go on at American parties ("French parties are for other things, like dancing," commented one of the group), and in that typical American institution the drive-in movie. Hostjng the students in their tour around campus was co chairman of the Y.M.C.A.'s Foreign Students Committee, Sylvia Wall. Other members of the group were Jacques Arragon, 24; Bruno Bertrand, 21; Pat rick Desplaces, 22; and Hanri Paraton, 22. Upon completion of their visit here Saturday, they will return to Washing ton, D. C, to end their tour. Shortly thereafter they will assume positions in the execu tive training departments of several U. S. firms for a six month period before return ing to France. UNC Young Demos Go To Charlotte CHARLOTTE (AP) Mem bers of North Carolina Young Democrats Clubs go to Char lotte today for their two-day convention prepared for a bit ter battle for the presidency. Battle lines are drawn be tween Robert Huffman, Mon roe lawyer, and A. J. Stephen son, Lillington insurance agent. Each, has claimed the elec tion is going his way. This week, the UNC YDC endorsed Huffman and named as delegates to the conven tion: Tom Belch, Phil Baddour and Henry Babb. 6 It withheld endorsement of other officers pending two caucuses of the club to be held at 5:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. today at the convention. Stephenson is apolitical ally of Dr. I. Beverly Lake, a conservative candidate is the last gubernatorial primary. Stephenson has charged the present leadership refuses to cooperate with the senior par ty and is attempting to rig the convention against him. Huffman says he has been endorsed by clubs from both large and small counties in cluding Mecklenburg, Greens boro, East Carolina College, Orange and Union.

YESTERDAY WAS THE FIRST DAY OF FALL DTH Secretary Lynne Harvel celebrates the occasion by romp ing in the first few leaves that have fallen from the trees in McCorkle Place. There aren't many leaves yet, but Calls For Draft 'From The Streets ' WASHINGTON (AP) .U.S. officials said today that sev eral tens of thousands of youths probably will have to be "recruited from the streets," above the number taken in recently increased draft calls, to complete the President Johnson last June. By the phrase "recruiting from the streets" they said they meant encouraging more youths who volunteer ,for six month reserve service to go on active duty. They said the blame for this additional dipping into civilian society should be attributed to congressional refusal to go along with Secretary of De fense Robert S. McNamara's plan to merge most reserves into the national guard rather than to any changed outlook or Communist reactions in Asia. These points were made by officials, who would not per mit attribution, in asnwering reporters' questions about the relation of current events in formal endorsements before conventions. Stephenson claims support from backers of Gov. Dan Moore and I. Beverly Lake, twice defeated gubernatorial candidate. Stephenson has promised, if elected, to employ the senior party's youth coordinator, Yates Nagle, as executive di rector of the YDC. Huffman says he has prom ised no jobs, and says he will cooperate with the senior par ty and try to promote harmony with all Democrats. Friday night's banquet speakers will be State Sen. Voit Gilmore of Moore County, a former head of the U. S. Travel Agency, and Agricul ture Commissioner James Graham. Saturday night's banquet speaker will be Bill Moyers, President Johnson's news sec retary. Moyers will be intro duced by presidential assistant Henry Hall Wilson, a former YDC president from Monroe. Most of the county clubs will caucus Friday night as maneu vering begins for Saturday's elections.

The officials said that the outlook in Viet Nam was "slightly better, if anything," than it was two months ago when McNamara publicly testified to his "cautious opti mism" about the situation in Viet Nam. The officials also said there had been no significant reac tion by Communist China, in the way of troop movements, to the heavy buildup of U. S. forces in Viet Nam. They add ed there were probably no im portant Chinese Red military activities in connection with last week's threatened con frontation with India in the Sikkim region. In the meeting with news men, the officials said the ad ditional men they would have to draw from the civilian pool would, for the most part, be those who volunteered for six month training in reserve com ponents. They foresaw little difficulty in obtaining addition al recruits by this method be cause, they said, the youths would rather take the chance of serving for the shorter pe riod than waiting to be draft ed for a longer term in the regular forces. The officials said that more specific means to expedite the buildup through short term trainees and a better estimate for the numbers needed were involved in plans that may be completed within one week. They emphasized that using a greater number of short term trainees would prove less ef ficient than the plan proposed by McNamara that ran into strong objections in the Arm ed Services Committees of both the House and Senate. . The McNamara proposal called for abolition of organ ized Army Reserve units and the merger of some individu als and most members of some units into selected National Guard units. Specifically, McNamara pro posed to increase the manpow er strength, equipment and readiness of three guard di visions and six brigades plus an assorted number of lesser formations. The officials recalled that McNamara told members of congress that unless the mili tary services were permitted to transfer men from low priority reserve units to high priority National Guard units the Defense Department would have to dip more deeply into the pool of civilians without prior military training. fai a few weeks, tie ctmpas maistenance crew wd kre to break out the rakes.

Ralph ' Moody said Wednesday that the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools should be required to obtain certifi cate of authority from Secre tary of State Thad Eure. Moody said Eure, author of the controversial speaker ban law opposed by the Associa tion, should exercise powers contained in the Non-Profit Corporation Act of 1955. He believes this is necessary because the Association is " Conducting affairs' within the meaning of (State laws)." The Non - Profit Corporation Act itself reads: "A foreign corporation shall procure a certificate of auth ority from the secretary of state before it shall conduct af fairs in this State." Moody says a key factor lies in interpretation of "conduct- Piano Concert Set For Tue. On Tuesday at 8 p.m. in Hill Hall, the music department will present in recital new fac ulty member and pianist Clif ton Matthews. The date marks both the opening of the Tuesday Eve ning Concert Series' fall sea son and the local debut of Matthews, who joined the fac ulty in September. The Tues day Evening Series is free and open to the public. Matthews came to Chapel Hill from Saratoga Spring, N.Y., where he was instructor in music at Skidmore College from 1963-65. During the past year, he also taught on the faculty of the Julliard School of Music's Preparatory Divis ion. The summers of both 1963 and 1964 took the pianist to Bringham Young University as pianist-in-residence fo the an nual music festival there. In Feb., 1964, at the age of 30, he made his New York debut in Carnegie Recital HalL Matthews' student days were no less busy nor distinguished than this more recently begun teaching career. Earning both B. S. and M.

Moody criticized the South ern Association for consider ing the two terms the same. According to the Associa tion's interpretation of "con ducting affairs," it is not re quired to conform to the in corporation law as specified in the 1955 Non-Profit Corpora tion Act.. Moody was answering ques tions asked last July by Eure, who authored the speaker ban law two years ago while serv ing in the State Legislature. The Association has threat ened to withdraw accredita tion of State - supported col leges and universities unless the law is repealed or modi fied. Electronic Brain Will TaUy Vote When students vote for or against campus radio during the October 5 referendum, their votes will be tabulated by a revolutionary new data processing system. Elections Board Chairman Alvin Tyndall said yesterday the new computer system of voting will enable the Elec tions Board to tabulate final voting results within one or one and a half hours after the polls close. According to the new vot ing procedure, students will black out their chosen boxes with a special pencil provided by the poll tender, and all un damaged ballots will be taken to Durham for validation. The actual election results will be tabulated in the com puter center of Hanes Hall, which also serve as elections headquarters. No ballots may be taken from one polling place and used at another. This would assure the accuracy of pre cinct results. The ballots cannot be dup licated anywhere," Tyndall said, "and we are assured that no phony ballots can be used without being rejected by the processing machine." Tyndall said the Elections Board has ordered a total of 10,000 ballots for the Oct. 5 referendum. Bv ED FREAKLEY DTH Staff Writer A petition with almost 1500 witn fal1 rusn sicnatures calling fcr Paul Tne Petition Dickson's resignation as pre.s ident of the Student Body was presented to him yesterday afternoon. Dickson told the three stu dents who organized the peti tion anH nrp;pntfrl it tn him thnt "T t.;ii nt tooro n(n except through impeachment or recall." He said that is what he meant in his statement last Tuesday and that it was his final decision. "I'm deeply sorry about what has happened. It has weighed heavily on my mind for the past five weeks. How ever, I feel I have not violat ed the student's trust in me and I will remain in office," Dickson said. He told Gordon Smith, sen ior from Raleigh, Jim Stur ges, junior from Alabama, and Mickey Gimbb, junior from Asheville, that he felt they were sincere in the ef fort and that he appreciated it. Dickson said he felt he had a lot of support on the cam- pus. what Of course, no matter I do, some will dis agree." He read a letter from Robert Pace a member of the North Carolina Young Democrats which asked Dickson to re main in office. Pace also sug gested that Dickson ask for mer University president Frank Porter Graham for ad vice on the matter. The three who drew up the petition said they had "never been active in the day-to-day operations of Student Govern ment, but we have been deep ly concerned by the difficul ties which have faced our Uni versity during the past months. "The issue here is not the fact that Dickson illegally kept a girl at his fraternity house all night. It is the fact that his disregard for responsibili ty of his office undermines student self - government and invokes disrespect for the entire University." "Dickson may have visions of himself as the University's champion of academic free dom, but this does not alter the fact that his continuance in office seriously jeopardizes any chance to reach a settle ment of the speaker ban con troversy," they said. Gamble said that they start ed circulating the petition about 7 D.m. Wednesday and finished at 4 p.m. yesterday.

Sturges said he supported Dickson in last spring's elec tion and worked in his cam paign headquarters. "But Paul can no longer pretend that he is acting in anyone's interest, not even his own." The controversy broke out Tuesday when a number of student leaders and the ad ministration said they felt he was "unsuitcd to remain in office" after he was found guilty cf a campus code vio lation this summer. Dickson was found guilty of helping her enter the house and received an official repri mand. Men's Attorney General John Ingram said in an offi cial letter yesterday that ru mors were being circulated on campus that Dickson intend ed to remove him and Worn en's Attorney General Gre Reeves from their positions. "Let me state categoricall that such is not the case. President Dickson has person ally asked Grey Reeves and me to continue with our du ties," Ingram said. Student Party Chairman Frank Hodges said in a letter to The Daily Tar Heel yester day, "I publicly state my sup port for President Dickson and urge him and other campus leaders to defend vigorously the integrity of Student Gov ernment by remaining in of fice." His letter will appear in to morrow's edition of the DTH.
