Kenan Jr. Charitable Trust of New York has ordered a second $1 mil lion transferred to UNC, part of the $5 million given to UNC last year to establish new Ken an Professorships. Each year $1 million will be paid until all of the $5 million is turned over to the Univer sity. The Kenan Trust derives from the estate of the late William Rand Kenan Jr., an 1894 graduate of UNC. In his will Kenan designated that ed ucation should be the main recipient of his endowment with hopes that UNC would be . preferred. Chancellor J. Carlyle Sitter son stated that the $1 million will be added to the $1 million, given in 1966 for establish ment of endowed professor ships under the salary supple ment plan. When all the $5 million will have been receiv ed by UNC in 1970 it will be possible to have as many as 25 William R. Kenan Jr. Pro fessorships here. The first William R.

They By DAVID ROTHMAN DTH Staff Writer Student Body President Bob Powell and the president of the Harvard student govern ment met Monday with State Department officials to ar range a meeting today between Sec. of State Dean Rusk and signers of a letter criticizing U. S. Vietnam policy. The group yesterday held a news conference at which they released a response to Rusk's reply to the 100 student leaders who signed a Dec. 29 letter to President Johnson protesting V. S. involvement in Vietnam. The contents of the response, drafted yesterday, were not released in time for publica tion of today's paper. Eric Van Loon, one of Pow ell's aides, said yesterday that Court Saves Deferments After Sit-in NEW YORK (AP) A U.S. Court of Appeals ruled Mon day that two local draft boards suppressed free speech by canceling the deferments of two University of Michigan stu dents who took part in sit-ins against the Selective Service system and U. S. policy in Vietnam. The court said it was reluc tant to intervene in draft mat ters, but stressed that alle gations "that the draft boards have unlawfully suppressed criticism must take prece dence." "Here it is the free express ion of views of critical na tional importance that is jeo pardized," the court said. "On such topics perhaps more than any other it is imperative that the public debate be full and that each segment of our so ciety be permitted freely to ex press its views." The court handed the case back to a federal judge who had dismissed the students' claim that they had been "pun ished" without a trial. The lo cal boards had changed their 2-s (student deferment) classi fications to 1-A or "available for service." The students involved in the decision, Peter Wolff, 29, of New York City, and Richard Shortt, 22 of Fresh Meadows, Queens, participated in demon strations Oct. 15, 1965, outside a local draft board in Ann Ar bor, Mich., home of the uni versity. Their local boards had can celled their deferments at the request of New York City's Se lective Service director. He contended they became delin quent by ostensibly violating the Universal Military Train ing and Service Act in the de monstration. The court disagreed and said Wolff and Shortt had nev er been "indicted or tried or convicted of this offense in a district court." i e , ill . I L WITHIN THE drapery - enforced dimness of Graham Memorial's Rendezvous Room, Folk singer Jake Holmes and his two accompanists plucked their guitars and sang their lyrics he and the student body presi dent drove to Washington Fri day to prepare for the talks. Van Loon said he could not say what the response's con tents were. He also said he did not know how many stu dents would meet with Rusk today. Meanwhile, the student group was scheduled yesterday eve ning to select official spokes men. The Dec. 29 letter said a "new mood. . . of doubt about the Vietnam war and the draft" is growing among col lege students. More students than ever will attempt to avoid military service if the gap between their opinions and government statements is not bridged, the letter stated. Rusk replied Jan. 6 to the original student letter. He made these main points: U. S. Troops are in Vietnam because "the minimum condi tion for order on our planet is that aggression must not be permitted to succeed." More Aggression not peace is the product of aggress ion. NON-COMMUNIST Asia has been given new vigor, hope and determination by the U.S. presence in Vietnam. SOME OBSERVERS beueve the United States should use more force in Vietnam, oth ers believe it should use less. The President himself feels that it is important to use an amount of pressure necessary for the Ut S. national interest but only with restraint. NORTH VIETNAM has not been devastated like Europe in World War II or Korea during the conflict there. Civ ilian deaths in South Vietnam outnumber casualties resulting from U. S. bombing raids on North Vietnam. THE VIEWS OF the Viet Cong could be heard "at any serious negotiations,'' although details concerning persons to be at the conference table should be negotiated with the Communists not with U. S. foreign policy critics, who cannot stop the fighting. The Rusk reply contained an invitation for Powell to meet with the students, as they are doing today. Kingston Trio Will Split Up HOLLYWOOD (AP) The Kingston Trio, who started the folk music craze and earned a million dollars a year from it, announced today they are disbanding. The youthful singers told a news conference there is no dissension among them, but each wants to go his separ ate way. John Stewart, 27, said he would form a new singing group. Bob Shane,' 13, said he expected to stay in the enter tainment field. Nick Reynolds, 33, said, "I just plan to spend more time with my family in stead of hopping on airplanes."

"But," he emphasized, "I thought it was an honest at tempt to explain our position." He said he particularly was interested in statements con tained in the Rusk reply say ing the United States has not intentionally bombed civilians. "That is not very satisfactory to the people whose homes have been damaged," e said. Powell believes that the United States is not as eager as Rusk insists to stop the war through negotiation. "We're not eager enough to negotiate to stop the bomb ing," he says. Powell stressed in several DTH interviews that he was not necessarily representing the opinions of UNC students in signing the original letter to President Johnson. 2 Thefts Net Wire, Jewelry Approximately 18,000 pounds of copper wire valued at $1 per pound were stolen early Monday morning from the University storage plant just off the Airport Road. Orange County Sheriff Buck Knight reported that thieves, repeating a similar perform ance of last month, broke the lock on a door in the back of the storage warehouse and carted off a trailer-load of the large bundles of wire, which are used for telephone and electrical purposes by the University. One abandoned rental trail er reported stolen from a Dur ham lot was found by sheriffs deputies on Airport Road near Carrboro. Sheriff Knight said he thought the thieves were forc ed to leave it behind before they got to the warehouse be cause it broke down. The other stolen trailer, however, which has a one-ton capacity, was loaded with the wire and escaped. Last month's theft netted approximately twice as much . as Monday's. The sheriff said no arrests have been made in connection with the theft. A thief broke into Hender son's Jewelry Store on West Franklin Street during semes ter break, stole a handful of jewelry, rammed his car into a police car during his geta way, then escaped on foot with ,the lot. Chapel Hill police said ap proximately $3,000 in jewelry was taken, most of it in rings valued at from $50 to $850. The theft occurred early last Wednesday morning. Police are still investigating the theft. Monday afternoon while rehearsing for last night's opening of GM's "coffee house." DTH Photo by Mike McGowan ) 7
