Draft Dodgers, Hear This:
12 Ways To Beat System
By JACK TATE
Special to the DTH
How to beat the draft?
That's a question even the
most patriotic of Carolina Gen
tlemen would like to be able
to answer.
One thing's certain. Most
young men do "beat" the
draft, though perhaps without
consciously trying. Only a
small percentage men between
18 and 26 are actually drafted
into military service.
And even the total of both
the draftees and the volunteers
represents considerably less
than 50 per cent of those eli
gible for service.
Percentage - wise, fewer col
lege - educated men are draft
ed than those in any other
group.
William H. McCachren, state
director of the Selective Serv
ice said this week: "Not one
full-time college student has
been drafted in North Carolina
because of poor grades."
But now to the specific ways
you can avoid the draft.
STAY IN graduate or pro
fessional school until after
your 26th birthday. You will
still be eligible for the draft,
but the services don't usually
want you after you're 26
APPLY FOR a "hardship
deferment. You will be exempt
from the draft if you can
prove that you are the major
source of aid or support of
someone (generally a relative)
The Golden Fleece, a men's
honor society, will call forth
its new members from the aud
ience. Hundreds of letters have
been sent out telling prospec
tive members to attend and
from these a few will be se
lected. The doors of Memorial Hall
will be locked at 7 p.m. and
will not be re-opened until af
ter the tapping has been com
pleted. The award for the most out
standing woman is given by a
permanent committee working
through the Office of the Dean
of Women.
The selection is based on the
characteristics of initiative, co
operation, leadership, charac
ter, industry, perseverance,
ideals, judgment, depenability
and scholarship.
Valkyries will also award a
trophy for the highest scholas
tic average in a sorority and
the highest scholastic average
in a women's residence hall.
The Office of the Dean of
Women will also make the an
nouncement of the sorority
pledge class with the highest
scholastic average for last se
mester. The Dean of Women's office
has given sign-out permission
to all coeds attending.

would endanger the health or
welfare of the other person.
(George Hamilton and Cassius

girlfriend that she should be

This tactic will work even af

Both legitimate and illegiti

for this III-A deferment and
you're considered a father from

FAIL THE military intell

risky if you have a college de
gree, but, according to Major
OUie Faison, head of the state

have failed the test. If you
fail, you will be subjected to
an intensive interview by a
psychologist. If you can con

cation. PROVE THAT you are phys
ically unable to qualify for mil

vision or very flat feet are fre
quently accepted as proof of
inability for military duty.

Powell: Debator
Turned President
By ALAN BANOV
DTH Staff Writer
What is Student Body Pres
ident Bob Powell really like?
Most students learned dur
ing his campaign that he has
been a debator for three years
and president of the debating
team twice, that he has been
chairman of the State Affairs
Committee and that he has
served on the Men's Honor
Council.
Robert Stone Powell is a
junior from Thomasville who
was comparatively unknown
by the student body before he
announced his candidacy. He
won a plurality in the March
22 election, but needed a run
off on March 29 before he won
the office.
He says he "enjoyed t h e
door-to-door contact with stu
dents during the campaign. I
hope to continue personal com
munications with the student
body while president
through Daily Tar Heel stor
ies and residence hall meet
ings." Powell considered the cam
paign a "fascinating experi
ence. It gives the president
much better perspective of the
people he's representing."
He has been debating for
six years three years in
high school and has been
president of Amphoterathen
public speaking honorary.
Powell says he found his de
bating experience valuable in
the campaign and as presi
dent. immediately exempt you from
service, figuring that anyone
who would even say he is a
homosexual would be a poor
military risk.
JOIN THE Public Health
Service or the Coast and Geo
detic Society.
DECLARE YOLKStLr a
conscientious objector to any
kind of military service. If you
don't wind up in jail for two
years you may still be called
for civilian work contributing
to the maintenance of the na
tional health, safety or inter
est. HEC'O.ME A public official
and receive Class IV-B defer
ment. GET A job in a strategic in
dustry. Engineers and scien
tists receive most of these de
ferments. The company you
work for must request this
type of deferment for you and
show that you are essential to
their operations.
BECOME A minister of re
ligion or a divinity student.
GET AN agricultural defer
ment. You must show that your
leaving the farm would cause
severe burden to be placed on
someone such as your parents
and also hamper the operations
of the farm.
And if you don't qualify for
one of these ways to beat the
draft, you can always join a
reserve component and fulfill
your active duty obligation in
six months.
Debating is probably the
only hobby he has. "I don't
lvive time for hobbies, per se,
iilthough in high school I hunt
ed a great deal," Powell as
serts. Being a member of the de
bating team and chairman of
the State Affairs Committee
have been his "most interest
ing experiences" at Chapel
Hill. They "gave me a chance
to travel as much as 5C0Q
miles a year and develop my
confidence as a public speak
er," he says.
"Acquiring and intensive
knowledge of the topics cov
ered each ear in debating'
was another important advan
tage of being on the team."
His "most interesting" ex
periences on the State Affairs
Committee were his appear
ances on radio and television.

ment programs, which have

He Knows What's Happening
Chief Beaumont
Cigar-Smoking Pal
By ERNEST ROBL
DTH Asst. News Editor
Arthur Beaumont not only
knows as much about what's
happening in the University as
the chancellor, he probably
knows more about it only
he's too modest to say so.
As part of his job, he has
met people ranging from the
late President John F. Ken
nedy to American Communist
Herbert Aptheker.
Officially, his title is campus
security chief. Unofficially, he
is a counselor to students, the
local pundit on all subjects and
the man with more stones to
tell than almost anyone else
around here.
In short, Beaumont likes to
talk to people and Saturday
afternoon the DTH got him to
talk about himself and his job.
It's not that it's so difficult to
get Beaumont to talk about
about himself, but that he is
as untypical a policeman as
one could imagine.
To begin with Beaumont ad
mits he sometimes works more
than 80 hours a week. He is
on duty seven days a week and
always on call.
Even when he is riding in
his official Carolina-blue car,
a special radio-telephone hook
up puts him in instant contact
with any telephone in Chapel
Hill.
When he first came to Car
olina in 1959, after a long ca
reer from fireman to union
bartender, he was hired to in
spect campus buildings for fire
hazards.
Beaumont had just "retired"
from his position of lieutenant
on the New York City Fire De
partment and the University,
which had been plagued by a
series of fires in 1958, was
oking for someone with a
background in fire prevention.
Beaumont got his job and at
the same time inherited a cam

Law Suit Delay
S By ANDY MYERS
DTH Staff Writer
A Duke law professor yesterday predicted that the
g: defendants in the Speaker Ban law suit will try to keep
the case out of court.
S Professor William Van Alstyne said the state may try
to delay until the end of the school year, or as near to
g that as possible, so that the time the case is heard it
will be "moot."
g: "Since Chancellor (J. Carlyle) Sitterson only denied
g speaker rights for this semester," Van Alstyne said,
"they have been trying to delay until the end of the
g school year."
In the event that the suit reaches court after spring
g semester is over, it is possible it could be thrown out
S of court "on the grounds that the case is moot," he
: said.
. Van Alstvne has been working closely with the plain
g: tiffs in the case, helping to prepare their original brief
S Marcn 31 and also aiding the American Associa
:$ tion of University Professors to prepare their "friend of
iji: the court" brief, to be submitted as soon as the state
makes its answer.
j Van Alstyne said the answer will probably come as
near to the May 15 deadline as possible, "since it was
j:j their intention to delay the case," he said,
j:! The dozen student plaintiffs, along with Frank Wilkin
: son and Herbert Aptheker, filed suit to try to get the gag
j:- law wiped off the books.
Aptheker, a Communist and head of a Marxist stud-
ies institute, and Wilkinson, who leads a committee seek-
ing to abolish the House Un-American Activities Com-
mittee, are both filing as individuals.
A three judge court was appointed last week to hear
the case. The panel consists of Judge Clement F. Haynes-
worth of the U. S. Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals,
g Judge Edwin M. Stanley of the Federal Middle District
North Carolina Court, and Judge Algernon L. Butler of
: the Eastern North Carolina District.
Defendants in the suit are Sitterson, Consolidated Uni
: versity President William Friday, and the UNC Board of
&: Trustees.
liji The executive committee of the AAUP Thursday ap
proved plans to support the plaintiffs in the case, and
agreed to donate money for court costs. A local money
g: drive is currently under way, at the direction of Dr.
x Joseph Straley, chairman of the UNC chapter of the
g: AAUP.

Today there are 15 campus po
licemen and six special guards
working under Beaumont's su
pervision. He works closely with the
Dean of Men's office and the
sight of Beaumont, trailing a
cloud of smoke from his ever
present cigar, has signaled the
end of many potential panty
raids.
Also working as liason man
between the University and
various law-enforcement agen
cies, Beaumont is often called
at 4 a.m. to come to the scene
of an accident involving stu
dents. The heavy-set chief says
students come to him for ev
erything "from advice to the
lovelorn, to what to do in case
of arrest."
As another part of his job,
Beaumont attends all public
functions on the campus. "The
friendships and associations
you make because of being
around at so many of thase af
fairs is a big part of the fringe
benefits from this job," he
says.
Very popular with most stu
dents, Beaumont comments, "I
think the feeling that students
have that we're not against
them makes our job so much
easier."
Beaumont gives much of the
credit to his wife, because he
talks all his problems ever with
her.
"When I've just had a hor
rible experience w here I
couldn't show my emotions."
Beaumont says, "I can always
go home and talk with her
about it."
"We can't always be imper
sonal, even if we have to make
out like we are, just to keep
calm."

passed.

The lecture by the 39-year-old
graduate of the Uni

in the Morehead Planetarium
faculty lounge is open to the
public.
AAUP President Joseph
Straley, Professor of Physics,
said yesterday that Job was
first contacted on March 5,
but needed permission from
his ambassador before accept
ing the invitation.
Job's speech, to which all
senior faculty members were
invited this week, is the third
in a series of lectures relat
ing to the Speaker Ban plan
ned by the AAUP. Victor Bry
ant and Sen. Robert Morgan
were the first two speakers.
Straley said the series was
planned in November, before
the Speaker Ban was amend
ed. "We decided then that the
AUP would devote its pro
gram this year to academic
freedom."
Job will be the second Com
munist to appear on campus

"I believe everybody has
rights," Beaumont said when
he kept Wilkinson from enter
ing Carroll Hall, "but I have
to enforce the law."
On hearing a tape recording
of the no-nonsense voice or

had remarked, "I almost didn't

But no matter how busy he
is, Beaumont says. "I never

to come by and talk.
"Unless you're a nut. you
get scared when you get in a
position when you are not sure
what to do. Anybody who isn't
scared at one time or another
is crazy."
Beaumont knows what it's
like for a person to be in a
position of not being sure what
to do. In his own words, in an
emergency "You can't wait too
long, and you can never af
ford to make a mistake."
