J That is the name of the organization that, by its in vitation of Dr. Herbert Aptheker to speak on the campus, has caused another state-wide stir concerning "intellec tual freedom," "constitutional rights" and "free speech." SDS, a recognized campus organization, is small as far as membership goes. It's made up of about 25 or 30 members. "We're not sure just how many members we have," says Gary Waller, SDS vice chairman.

DTH Photo By Ernest Robl with Ed Freakley Marching The Mavericks of Craige Resident Hall have done, and are doing more than any other group to lmnrnvp and build the imaee of this University. This weekend they have been hiking 140-miles on behalf of the Heart Fund. The group will march into Chapel Hill sometime betwen 4 and 4:30 this afternoon to assist in the ground breaking ceremony for the Hmton James Kes- ident Hall at 4:30. We urge everyone to turn out and welcome the Mavericks home. Thoughtful is a good word for Mavericks un- selfish is a better one. Two Stands Not In Conflict It is true that we want a Communist to be per mitted to speak on campus. Freedom of speech is important to us and it belongs to us, not the State Government or the board of trustees it belongs to each individual. At any rate, we back the war effort in Viet Nam. And we are backing the boys over there. Congressman On Viet Nam Time for some more of that popular game called Trivia. It seems to be catching on around here so we offer you a few more questions. 1.

We're probably the least beaucratic organization on campus." The UNC-SDS chapter was formed last spring, accord ing to Waller, "when several students wanted an organi zation which would express our vews. "We wanted something that would represent the lib eral thought on campus. I saw something about SDS in a magazine and liked it and told the others about it. We had a couple of meetings and that's how we got started," Waller said. .. Norman Gustaveson, the director of the campus YMCA, was also consulted about forming the SDS chap ter, Waller added. Gustaveson was one of the first ad visors for the group. Dr. William Wynn and Dr. Joseph Straley are the other advisors. "The advisors take a very active part in the organi zation," Waller said. "They attend our meetings and give opinions on what we should do. We consult them fre quently and use them more than other groups use their advisors on campus." The SDS is made up of both undergraduate and grad uate students and by in-state and out-of-state students. Until now it has been headed by Jim McCorkel. He resigned as chairman Wednesday, however, in the heat of the controversy over Aptheker's invitation to speak here. A new chairman is to be chosen today, McCorkel said he resigned in order to devote more time to the dis ertation for his doctorate. The group is committed to a "participatory democ racy" according to Waller, and that is what he calls its philosophy. "People should take part in the decisions that affect their day to day lives," he said. "Our purpose is to promote debate," Waller said, "not to promote our philosophy. We just make it avail able." The vice chairman said the members range from "moderate liberals to radicals.' However, he said "rad ical" was used in the sense of "going to the roots of is sues." "There are no ideological meanings to SDS," Waller added. "We would probably be on the 'left' of most is sues but there is no committment to Maxism." The UNC-SDS chapter is associated with the national SDS organization, Waller said, but is not associated with any other groups on campus. "We share some members with the Student Peace Union," he said, "but we are not associated with them." SDS is totally operated by students, Waller said. Dues for the organization are $3 for the first year and $1 for each year after that. Waller said other finances are gained through the sale of pamphlets, buttons and through private contributions.

Undergraduate Library Larger Than Expected A $657,000 federal grant will make it possible for the new North Carolina undergraduate library to be expanded before it is even built. Plans for the library had called for a $1,315,000 structure of approximately 60,000 square feet. With the new grant a $1, 972,000 building of close to 80, 000 square feet will be con structed. The federal money was awarded under the Higher Education Facilities Act of 1963.

Raleigh Man On Red Ban There has been no word from Raleigh since the exploding reactions of students, faculty and others in the University community concerning Gov. Dan K. Moore's denomination of an invitation to Communist Herbert 'Aptheker to speak on campus March 9. Gary Waller, vice chairman of SDS, said yesterday that if Aptheker was denied his right to speak, the organization may invite him to speak off campus or initiate legal action. President Paul Dickson has also hinted at a possible test case of North Carolina's con troversial speaker ban law.

The executive committee of the University board of trust es will meet in Raleigh to decide the Aptheker case. Fleming said he didn't know how many faculty members would be able to get away for the meeting, but most of them are in favor of the move. "These are associate and full professors," Fleming said, "who are deeply concerned about the future of the Uni-. versity. "They are afraid that if the committee decides against Ap theker that this University will have no future and they in turn will have no fu ture at this University," Flem ing said. In his statement Saturday Dickson said the purpose of the student meting is to draft two telegrams to be sent to Gov. Dan K. Moore and the executive committee. "I will explain the various factors involved in our current " action arid I "will seek ap proval of my action from the student body," Dickson said. Also expected to speak at the meeting are Wilson Clark of the Carolina Conservative Club, Dr. Lewis Lipsitz of the Political Science Depart ment, Dr. Joseph W.
