Mm wmm Shunning Dickson 'Like 6-Year-Old' Legislator Says JOHN (illEKNBACKKK DTH Political Writer Representative Frank Long est (SP) criticised the Uni versity administration for not recognizing Paul Dickson as the elected representative of the student body in a speech before Student Legislature Thursday night. Longest referred to the University's recent decision to invite senior class president John Harmon as the official student body representative at University Day proceedings in stead of Dickson. "I believe that this is a per sonal slam not only to our president, but to the entire stu dent body," Longest said. "Paul Dickson is our elect ed president," he said, "and he should continue to repre sent the student body at all official occasions until such time as he might be removed. Six-Year-Old "This decision reminds me of a six-year-old who will not invite a friend to his birth day party because the friend hasn't done the things he want ' ed," Longest said. Last Murder Suspect Is Released Chapel Hill Police Chief wunam Blake said yesterday that the latest lead in the Su ellen Evans case proved to be a dead end when the suspect was given a lie detector test. The 50th suspect to be Ques tioned in the case readily sub- mi.iea to trie test at SBl head quarters in Raleieh after be ing questioned Tuesday in' K,ileigh after being questioned Tuesday in Chapel Hill Blake reported. "When we gave him the lie detector test he came rlpan " Blake said. The man, a Ne gro, denied any involvement in the Julv 30 knifing in tho arboretum. Blake noted that several more suspects are still' sougnc. About 1,000 of the 3,000 let ters the department is mail ing out have been sent, he said, ine latest suspect was the result of a mailed renlv from one of the coeds who at tended summer school here. "We've Gotten lots of tp plies, so far," Chief Blake 'said, "but most of the inci dents we were already fami liar with." He added that a large increase in traffic tick ets in the past few weeks has .diverted the attention of his staff away from the case. Blake said he is still inter ested in any information, no matter now unimportant it .mignt seem. Buchwald: 'Throw Garbage By DAVID ROTHMAN DTH Staff Writer RALEIGH Art Buchwald the columnist who laughs rather than cries "because it pays better" sold his squeals to more than 600 per sons Thursday night at N.C. State. "I am not now nor have I ever been a member of the Communist party," he said as he assured the audience he wasn't violating the speaker ban law. "At one time, however, I did belong to the Book of the Month Club." To satisfy the American Le gion, Buchwald called for a redistribution of the country's communists. "Each small town should have a resident communist," he suggested, "so that people could throw garbage on his lawn." Then Buchwald began tell ing his life's story, explaining that most people "think I have the world's best job. And if you look at it objectively from all sides, I do." When the humorist received his $250 veteran's bonus after serving in the Marines, he wondered how he should spend it "Why don't you go to Par is'?" a friend asked. "The streets are paved with mat tresses." Buddy-Buddy Buchwald heeded the advice "1 hope the faculty will re consider their decision and act in a more mature and respon sible manner." Dickson has been under criticism from members of the faculty, University adminis tration and student body since his conviction last summer for a Campus Code violation. Longest's statement was made over the protests of Uni versity Party Floor Leader George Ingram, who implored all members of the legislature not to mention the subject any more. The legislature voted to send three bills establishing a cam pus carrier current radio sys tem back to committee after a predominately Student Party majority defeated a move to have the bills tabled. The motion to table the bills, made by Ingram, would have by-passed any further discussion on the bills in com mittee. Radio Bills Finance Committee chair man Hugh Blackwell (SP), who lead the fight in SL last spring to keep the radio bills in committee for further study spoke against Ingram's mo tion. "There are numerous indi viduals who still wish to ex press their opinions and offer information about campus ra dio," Blackwell said. "It would be wrong to cut them off without having their say in the matter. Blackwell promised the leg islature that the campus radio bills would be discharged from committee within two weeks after the results of the Oct. 5 campus-wide referendum on the issue are known. Ingram opposed the bills' re turn to committee because he said the radio proposals had been discussed enough by the committees. Ingram's motion was defeat ed in a nearly partisan vote. The body passed a resolu tion sponsored by Sharon Rose (SP) calling for the availabil ity of more doctors to treat students at the UNC infirmary. Redisricting The legislature also passed a bill redisricting the repre sentative areas of the Men's Council. A bill requiring residents of Morrison, Craige and Ehring haus residence halls to vote in campus elections at polls set up inside their residence halls passed with little discus sion. This bill will insure against election fraud and will save students from those areas the time and effort of having to vote in Y-court. Sandy Hobgood (SP) defeat ed Jim Smith (UP) for the chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee in a parti san vote of the body. and was buddy-buddy with all the girls on his boat while crossing the Atlantic. Sup posedly they thought the well padded humorist could help unload their belongings when they reached Europe since he looked like a stevedore. Arriving in Paris, Buchwald wasn't worried about finding work. "The Marshall plan was the GI bill for foreign coun tries . . . They wanted Amer icans so badly you could ap ply as an office boy and be put in charge of steel produc tion for the Benelux coun tries." The New York Herald Trib une hired Buchwald for its Paris edition and soon had him reviewing films. He ad mitted he usually gave them rough ratings because he couldn't understand French. He said his other employer was the Central Intelligence Agency. Every third word in his columns, he claims, was a tip - off for CIA agents who saw the satires in Pravda Buchwald hopes the columns were translated accurately. During the Eisenhower ad ministration, he gave his ver sion of a typical press brief ing by former Press- Secre tary James Hagerty. The transcript read: "Good Night" "Hagerty: The President went to bed at 11:06 tonight. Administration Acceo JL i,i.iih.i.i i.n. I I. )! M)illi.)ipiiwilyyy.iilinuw u.

Miss Mississippi, arrived here last night in connection with "Operation Match." She will be in Raleigh this morning and will travel back to Chapel Hill for a noon press conference at the Kappa NAACP By FRED THOMAS and BILL OTIS DTH Staff Writers UNC NAACP Thursday night discussed ths poss.bility of "test rushes" for the pur pose of establ-shing a "pattern of discrimination" in campus fraternities. Charles Miller presided over the group of 23 in Alumni Building and outlined several areas tor action this year, in cluding fraternities, athletic teams, campus speakers, fac ulty make-up and recruiting Negro students. Concerning the possibility of integrating UNC's fraternity system, it was pointed out that the Greek organizations oper ate on the principle that any member of a fraternity may reject a candidate for mem bership for any personal rea son. A suggestion was made that perhaps some effort should be made to change this sys tem. The generally agreed-upon objective was to establish a "pattern of discrimination" in the fraternity system by having Negro students partici pate in rush. This, several members ex pressed hope, would "embar rass" the fraternities. "Q. Jim, did the President speak to anyone before retir ing "A. He spoke to the Secre- tary of State. "Q. What did he say to the Secretary of State, Jim? "... a communist block X Dual St Discusses One member of the group of 23 suggested that they concen trate on professional fraterni ties first since, membership in these oganizations can "ma terially affect" a student's fu ture well-being. Athletics was the area de cided upon for most immedi ate action due to the high ath letic interest during football season. It was also noted that en thusiasm would be more diffi cult to arouse when exams and vacations start. A committee was appointed to negotiate with proper au thorities concerning the re cruiting of Negro athletes for UNC teams. To abet this effort, one member suggested that the NAACP publicize the fact that "our teams are all white." By concentrating attention on this fact, the group could hope to "embarrass" athletic authorities, he said. At this point the group's at tention was diverted to the question of UNC NAACP's re lations with the press spe cificially The Daily Tar Heel. It was suggested that a re port of the meeting be written and submitted to the DTH, but the group decided against do ing . this after one member "A. He said: 'Good night, Foster.' " Buchwald did not extensive- ly quote the transcript in front of the Raleigh audience, but he did tell what happened aft- er the column's publication. for every community . . ' ' m.' ' Sigma house. At that time, her "ideal date" for the foot ball game and banquet will be announced. DTH Photo by Ernest Robl Test Rush' Plan noted that they might have better results in their cam paign with the athletic depart ment if officials did not have prior knowledge that they were coming with questions for them. "We want to catch them off guard in hopes that they will slip and say something that they would not have told us otherwise," he said. Athletic Director Chuck Erickson told the Daily Tar Heel yesterday afternoon that the Athletic Department does not, and has not in the past practiced racial discrimi nation in recruiting athletes. "If a boy is athletic and academically qualified, we want him regardless of his color," he said. On the subject of speaker programs for the year, some of the more fiery members of the group said that they fa vored having "good speakers, regardless of their status un der the "speaker ban law." However, many, including President Charles Miller, seemed reluctant to have speakers whose right to speak on campus might be question able, because it would bring discredit to the sponsoring or ganization. Reference was made to On The Lawn9 "Eisenhower held a real news conference to deny the re marks attributed to him. He told his press Secretary: 'Sim mer down, Jim, simmer down' and that was the last forth right statement Eisenhower ever made." The satirist promised the DTH after his talk that he himself has no political ambi tions, but earlier he an nounced he had volunteered for the Peace Corps. "I want ed to go to the French Riv eria ... to share the native customs . . . but I was turned down for the job . . . Sarge Shriver had alreadv applied for it." Inconveniences When he returned to Amer ica, he found "there were many little things I had to get used to like paying taxes." Buchwald very much feared the atomic threat posed by the Cuban missile crisis. "Some people were hawks . . . Some were doves . . . and I was a chicken." After he began writing about President Johnson. Buchwald decided to see if the chief ex ecutive had a sense of humor. Buchwald discovered that back at the LBJ ranch his one of his columns about the President was being passed from advisor to advisor. "They all chuckled until Johnson Say andard Carl Braden, whom UNC NAACP sponsored last year. Braden was refused the privilege to speak on campus by the administration due to his apparently falling under the jurisdiction of the speaker ban. Concerning the matter of getting more Negro students into UNC, Miller told the group that they must do their own job of recruiting. It was suggested that mem bers of UNC NAACP go back to their high school and car ry the good tidings of Caro lina, explaining that Negroes at UNC ". . . do not really sleep in closets. . .". The faculty was mentioned at the opening of the meeting as one of the group's inter ests this year. Miller told the group that to his knowledge the faculty here is all white. Chancellor Paul F. Sharp told the DTH yesterday that he did not feel that he could make any comment until talk ing with NAACP representa tives and finding out just what their plans are. He did note, however, that Dr. David K. Hall, a Negro, is a clinical instructor in the University's Department of Oral Surgery. looked it over . . . When he didn't laugh, the advisors asked to read it again." Discussing his talk's an nounced topic "Criticism and the Press" Buchwald said the papers weren't fair to Gold water. "They quoted him." LBJ's Gift The nationally syndicated funnyman believes President Johnson selected Hubert Hum phrey as vice president be cause he hadn't invited the senator to dinner. "I had to make it up to him somehow," Buchwald quoted the Presi dent as saying. "The real reason Johnson didn't send Humphrey to Churchill's funeral was that he couldn't look sad," Buch wald explained. Giving the dope on his fa mous campus sex survey ("I made all the results up my self"), Buchwald reported one Yale man said: "A boy should be able to say no to a girl without hurting her feelings." Another student declined to have an affair "during the happiest years of my life." Still another remarked "Fortunately, that subject has never come up." W ill Verdicts Council Decisions May Be Affected By AXDY MYERS DTH Staff Writer The administration announced yesterday it will "no longer accept or enforce" for the same honor code violations. In a letter dated Aug. 26 from Dean of Men William G. Long to student government officials, it was stated that the "dual standards" and Women's Honor Councils Simultaneously, the Men's Honor Council yesterday ad mitted the "enormous differ ences" encountered with the "dual standard" system of penalties now in effect, but countered the administration's letter with the rebuttal: "The judicial system has been denounced for its incon sistent policy in not treating men and women students equally hence the 'dual standard.' "The Men's Council would like to remind the student body that the problem can be traced directly to the social rules under which the students live." Van MacNair, chairman of the Men's Honor Council, said last night, "There is a basic difference between the rules governing men and women on campus. Women are subject to house rules in dormitories and sororities there are no com parable rules for men. Be cause of the difference in the codes that govern the two sex es, the Men's Honor Council recognizes the fact that a dou ble standard does exist. "Until there can be substan tial changes in the rules of conduct for men and women, the Men's Council must deal out penalties which are less severe than those given by the Women's Council. "I'd like to emphasize that there is no such 'dual stand ard' under the Honor Code since this applies to all stu dents regardless of sex," he said. Dean of Student Affairs CO. Cathey clarified why the let ter had not been made public sooner. "The administration was severely worked over in an editorial in the Raleigh Times Wednesday and Chan cellor Paul Sharp wanted it answered right away." The Men's Honor Council said that although "duel stand ards" were used in enforc ing the honor code, the Coun cil based its decisions on "dual restrictions" made on men and women. "The men are entrusted with a great deal of social freedom which the women do not have; and, therefore, the first logical step toward the elimination of judicial distinc tion is the equalization of so cial rules." Long's letter said: "The con tention that a man student's responsibility for a woman stu 1ent consists only in his re Music Is In The Air It's Band Day At Kenan John Sousa, W. C.

Referring to the so-called "doctrine of minimal or nega tive evidence," the letter said, "it will not be recognized as a legitimate justification for the rendering of an exonera tion by student judicial bod ies." The administration letter closely followed the honor council trial of Student Body President Paul Dickson and a coed, who were both convict ed for breaking fraternity vis iting rules during the sum mer. Dickson, a member of Chi Psi fraternity, had been con victed of admitting a coed in to the lodge, and the coed was convicted of staying out all night and entering a closed fraternity. Dickson received a repri mand and the coed was sus . pended for . the offenses, The coed has since been readmit ted to UNC-G. In explaining his position, Long said: "For a number of years the University has be come increasingly concerned about dual standard judicial decisions rendered by student judicial bodies. "I know that this concern has been shared by many stu dent government leaders. The most common form of this phenomenon is to be found when a man and woman stu dents are each charged with Campus Code offenses based upon action that was common to both, and the disciplinary sentences imposed are widely disparate. "From time to time we have also had instances in which students involved in the same violation of the Honor Code have received different penal ties," the letter said.
