They got together last night to elect party officers. And it went off like clock work. 1. There were no nominating speeches. 2. All officers except members of the executive board were elected without opposition. There were eight people running for the executive board one of them withdrew before the voting. The top five vote-getters who were all elected to the board had a vote spread of about 95 to 73. The sixth fellow got 24 votes. As the 100 members left the meeting, some com mented on the strange manner in which all party fac tionalism had been eliminated and the slate of officers determined ahead of time. "Conditioned apathy," one member said in disgust. Alcoholism Information Leaders Governor Dan K Monro rtiratrt ls.t Governor Dan K . Moore "Alcoholism Information Week." In a statement Gov. Moore called on all citizens to help eliminate inconsistencies which block efforts to control alcoholism. Rumors have it that the Governor plans to ask UNC student leaders to travel around the state and give informative speeches on the subject. Moore feels Caro lina students are well qualified and there is no use in them sitting on the still. Blood Trail Leads Nowhere There was a trail of blood leading from in front of Alumni Building to the GM parking lot yesterday. It measured about 100 yards. .........

Blood on the old sidewalk To Match Or Not To Match Alexander Pope once wrote that "to err is only human," but what happens if a computer makes the goofs? The mechanized cupid of "Operation Match" has already assigned at least one Carolina Gentleman to his sister, working on the assumption that dates share common characteristics. The body, who declares his opposition to incest, claims she probably lied about her looks. And look what happened in Washington, D. C. Several boys there were assigned to members of the same sex. Another calamity took place when one fellow got into an argument with a fraternity brother after the impersonal computer gave him his girl. There's also the tale of another "Match" customer who sent in two questionnaires each with entirely op posite answers. But that didn't prevent the computer from saying he's be the "ideal date" of two girls whose names ap peared on both lists. Perhaps the computer was only thinking of the time honored belief that opposities attract. Everything Was Going OK Until This Man Butted In BY JUDY R1KE Special to the DTH The auditorium was filled with senior girls eager to hear some illuminating words from the wise. Several women with var ied qualifications were ready to talk about the woman's role after graduation, whether it be a career girl, a graduate stu dent, or a bride. I sat there as eager as the rest and a little curious. A lot is said about the feminine mystique but not enough is said to wom en a imnncr career girl, recent ly turned wife, talked about tne awkward transition from the office life of nine to five filled with definite tasks to the frightening freedom of being left in the house after husband goes to work. With a lilting laugh she warned against get- desisnated last week ting in a rut of cooking ana cleaning: "Your husband will soon stop asking you how your day was because he'll know the answer by heart." The dark - haired psycholo gist next to her agreed empha tically. With a slow drawl she told about the many men who come to her with the com plaint, "My wife is a bore. She was nothing to say except that Johnny has a cold, the milk man forgot to come today, and I have a terrific headache." A masculine voice broke my tranquil peace of mind. The reaction "who let him in here?" ran through the femi nine minds and escaped in whispers. I turned to see the voice's owner. He was a man with an enlarged male ego. His question was filled with a . m . ... . . .. - ' . .1 Alonzo Squires: 'It Is A : By TREVA MITCHELL S Special to the DTH i "I consider it a privilege g to be blind."

The Richmond Spiders, unde feated after opening victories over George Washington and VMI, invade Carmichael Aud itorium this evening at 8. The Tar Heels, fresh from Monday night's 82-72 upset of Ohio State, will be seeking their third victory in four games and their second win in Carmichael. The Spiders offer a rout and a come - back in their two opening victories. The rout came against George Washing ton as the Spiders had little trouble winning 103-84. The victory over VMI was a different story. The Spiders had to come from 20 points be hind to nip the Cadets 77-73. Hero of the VMI come - back was junior captain Johnny Moates, a 6-1 guard. His 21 point second half effort led the charge and his 21.5 over all average is best of the Spid ers. Working with Moates at guard will be Spike Welsh, a 5-11 senior from Spring Grove, Pa. Welsh, who hit three quick basket in the come back against VMI, carries a 12.5 average into the game. Juniors Harvey Roberts, 6-4, and Tom Green, 6-6, are the forwards. Roberts is averag ing 18.5 points per game and has hit on 65.2 per cent of his shots. Green, a south - paw, has averaged 18 points and 15 re bounds in the first two games. Buster Batts, a 6-8 junior, will be at center. He averages nine points per game. Of course, leading the Tar Heel charge will be the "L and M" boys junior Bob Lewis and sophomore Larry Miller. Joining Miller and Lewis in the starting line - up will be guards Tom Gauntlett and John Yokley. At center will be 6-8 Bob Bennett. A stingy, hustling defense has been the key to the Tar barbed challenge: "Just what is the woman's goal?" Now isn't that just like a man? He lumps all women together, calls them "the woman," and sarcastically demands to know a common goal as if all have the same personality, needs, and desires. WTien asked for his goal he replied with a tone of colossal self esteem: "I want to be as intelligent and as rich as I want." Utter ego. In his arrogance he seemed ready to start a full - fledged battle of the sexes, uses his one superb, perceptive mind against our many limited ones. I personally wouldn't give him the satisfaction. Our sweet revenge will come when he marries someone who missed the lecture. I hope she's a real shrew. asks for it. Strangely enough, his greatest problem is not crossing Franklin Street during rush hour. "It's get ting my reading done for me." He has to hire read ers, which can be a sticky situation around quiz time. Squires is working on his master's degree, which will probably take another year and a half to complete. He takes a recorder to class and gets the gist of the lectures. As soon as he has them "down pat " he erases the tapes for re-use. "Profes sors have been most cooper ative," he said. He was in law school at UNC some years ago, but dropped out to go into show business. He spent a num ber of years in radio work, including eleven years with WAYS in Charlotte when he Heels 2-1 record. After losing their opener to Clemson 84-74, Carolina has dumped William & Mary 82-68 and Ohio State 82-72. The Tar Heels were victimiz ed by the "press" in their loss to Ciemson. Since that time, Coach Dean Smith has taken corrective measures. Those measures payed off in Monday night's victory over Ohio State in Columbus. Down by 13 at the half 35-22 the Buckeyes applied in the pressure in the second half with a full - court press. Playing a cool, methodical offense that shunned the good shot for the better one, the Tar Heels took the heat out of the Buckeye press. Silent Sam, with the help of a friend, reminds us of Pearl Harbor Day one day late. VISTA Recruits Shouldn't Complain About The Cold If you sign up for VISTA (the "domestic peace corps") this week at Y-Court and get accepted, don't compalin too much about the cold weather we've been having. You might get sent to Alas ka, where John Shively, a 1965 UNC graduate, is now serving VISTA by teaching Eskimos how to construct a breakwater to prevent flooding during spring thaws. And cold weather isn't his only worry. Shively lives in primitive housing without run ning water or adequate sanita tion facilities. He fishes and hunts along with his neighbors eating seal, fish, reindeer, caribou and game birds. Shively was introduced to Eskimo life and customs dur ing six weeks of intensive training at the University of Alaska. There, he prepared for long periods of isolation and count less days without sun. The political science major says he joined VISTA because he has "always been interest ed in social problems, espe cially those we face in Amer ica." Three other UNC graduates Alonzo Squires is working on science. Instead of Tar Heel ball handling miscues, the Buck eyes found themselves fouling to get the ball then throwing the ball away themselves. Another bright spot for the Tar Heels has been the steady play of top reserves Mark Mirken, Donnie Moe, and Kay Hassell. Mirken, Bennett's replace ment at center, came - on in the Ohio State game after Ben nett was injured and added several key plays to the Tar Heel attack. Moe and Hassell have sub stituted at guards enabling the Tar Heels to play their "stick like glue" defense the entire game. in VISTA are Scott Trull, Da vid Cheek and Samuel Hunt. Trull, a political science ma jor, is seeking to improve the lives of Spanish-speaking mi grants in New Mexico. Cheek, who majored in his tory, is developing health and educational programs in rural Newton County, Ark. Samuel Hunt, also a politi cal science major, is attempt ing to make legal services available to the poor of Kings County, Calif. VISTA volunteers serve for one year on Indian reserva tions and in depressed areas like Appalachia. They also render assistance to urban dwellers and the men tally handicapped. The workers receive living allowances for food, housing, clothing, travel and medical care. They are paid $600 at the end of the year. Volunteers will be assigned the type work they prefer if this is possible. They play a part in the selection of the lo cations to which they are sent. VISTA recruits must be at least 18 years of age. Further information may be obtained by writing to VISTA, Washington, D. C, 20596.

An average of "one accident a day" has occurred since the motor scooter craze was initi ated to solve the parking pro blem on campus. Concern of Dean of Men William Long and Chapel Hill citizens has result ed in an extensive accident control study. The School of Public Health's Accident Control Division, the Dean of Men's office and the Infirmary began studying two wheeled motor vehicle acci dents the beginning of Novem ber to decide what preventa tive measures to take. They have so far investigated more than 25 accidents. Bob Kepner, assistant to the Dean of Men, noted the num ber of two-wheeled motor ve hicles registered this year has already increased from 299 to 450. "This is more than dou ble the 242 registered at the end of last year. When the trend began at the first of the 1964 fall term, only 71 were registered." Kepner said freshmen are allowed to register twp - wheel ed motor vehicles though they may not register cars. Miss Janice Westaby, direc tor of the Public Health Acci dent Control Division said, "Nineteen of the 25 accidents involved freshmen and most were operating the 'Honda -type' two-wheeled vehicles. "The majority of accidents occurred during the day," she said. "Of the total injured six were admitted to the North Carolina Memorial Hospital for treatment." j Dr. Tyndall P. Harris in the infirmary said most of the ac cidents are minor ones involv ing bruises and abrasions, though some have resulted in more serious injuries such as compound fractures." Miss Westaby noted that if more students would protect themselves with boots jackets, goggles and helmets, many injuries could be avoided. She said most of the acci dents don't involve; speeding vehicles, but a "good share do involve loss of control and oth er motor vehicles." "The important thing about the study," she said, "is that we are really anticipating the problem before it gets too big. If we can look at it now, may be we can cut down on the number of accidents." To Be Blind had his own program. Squires returned to the University in 1964 to finish work on his undergraduate degree and decided to go on for his Masters. After get ting his degree, he wants to teach or go into administra tive work. Aside from academic pur suits, Squires holds down the job of UNC traffic coun selor. If you have a com plaint about the traffic sit uation, he is the man to see. He works in Dean Long's office, and counsels with the Dean about judg ments in more serious cases when requested. Squires said there are many things to be done about the current traffic problems. "We're in grow ing pains right now," he said. - "However, I believe the UP Candidates, Chairman Named BY JOHN GREENBACKER DTH Staff Writer Nearly 100 members of the University Party acclaim ed five candidates as the new UP officers for 1965-66 and elected five members to the UP Executive Board Monday night in Carroll Hall. Neil Thomas was named chairman of the party, replac ing outgoing chairman Jim Hubbard. Other officers include David Kiel, Vice Chairman, Janet, Blake, Secretary, John Lovell, Treasurer and Mike Munroe, Sergeant - at - Arms. Nominating speeches for the candidates were eliminated af ter the body unanimously ac cepted a motion made bys'Phil Kirstein that speeches be dispensed with. In his final address as party chairman, Hubbard answered critics within the party who have attacked the effective ness of his administration. He cited an increase in UP membership and the party's success in the fall elections. Hubbard attacked a lack of "strong participation" by par ty members in UP activities. "This party cannot and should not be the voice of five or six people," Hubbard said. Thomas called on UP mem bers to "bolster your party by yor actions, your appearance and your words." He called for an end to "the intense rivalry between the University Party and the Stu dent Party. "The parties exist for Stud ent Government and not Stud ent Government for the par ties " he said. Thomas said he would join Campus News Committee Named A seven-man interim com mittee has been appointed to plan and discuss directions of residence hall life in con junction with last week's Res idence Hall Officers' confer ence.

He praised the efficiency of Freshman Class President Ben White, who was an SP nomi nee. "I do not advocate crossing over to the opposite camp by any means, for his is inane," Thomas said. "The comprom ises 1 speak of are mechani cal, not ideological." The only actual elective con test which occured during the meeting was for the five seats on the UP Executive Board. Clark Crampton, Bob Hunt er, David Broadhurst, Don Carson and Phil Kirstein were elected to the board after it was determined that they had achieved the greatest number of votes in a field of seven. Jim Smith and Dick Mitchell were the two defeated candi dates. RESOLUTION The party unanimously ac cepted a resolution introduced by Carson calling for a UP inrcH0?tion of the jpreregis tration process. ttie resolution scored prere gistration's "ridiculously long lines, dozens of closed courses and acute schedule conflict frustration." The committee will report the results of the investigation to Thomas, high Student Gov ernment officials and the Dean of Student Affairs.
