The senior from Montego Bay, Jamaica, pointed out three criteria for evaluating its success, which were well ful filled. The amount of attention given it throughout the state and country, the first criter ion, was evidenced by the coverage of John Kenneth Gal braith's speech on national tel evision and even on the front page of the Springfield (Mass.) Herald. Butler was very satisified, secondly, by the "number of people who attended the Sym posium," and, thirdly, by the "great amount the Symposium stimulated University life." Butler said he was very pleased with the quality of speakers for the program. "Not all the speakers stuck to the subject," he added, "but it's difficult to expect them to stay within the confines of the topic." The speakers were sent cop ies of the program, he said. "If you restrict speakers to say what you want them to say, they won't come. We had to depend largely on their con sciences, but Al Capp doesn't have a conscience!" Speaking of the Symposium's massive staff, Butler said, "The Symposium attracts the brightest, most worldly stud ents on campus to it staff. However they weren't se lected simply because of their high averages, but for their other talents. "The individual initiative shown by them was remark able. It would be impossible to single out even a few who should be commended." The Inter Collegiate Seminar segment of the 1 Symposium was a "resounding success," according to Butler. Some of the 41 students from other schools stayed over for an extra day or so.jhe added. One problem Butler saw in the program was budgetary. "Student Government didn't give as much as we wanted. Lyons Gray did! a great job in attracting outside funds New Plays Announced The Carolina Playmakers will present theii; 2l0th bill of student - written one - act plays at the Playpiakers Thea tre on Wednesday and Thurs day evenings. The three plajjs to be pre sented are "The Actor" by James Layton ot Chapel Hill, "Kilroy Was Hee" by Wil liam E. Watson: of Sanford, and "The Captain" by Mel Hutto of Birminglpn, Alabama. All three plays 'are products of Prof. Thomas, M. Patter son's playwxiting classes this semester. Directors are Anne Helm, Amanda Meiggs,; and Ron Spainhour, graduate students in the UNC Department of Dra matic Art. Curtain time for the triple bill is scheduled tor 8:00 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, and each production will be followed by a shtrt discussion and critique of the play led by Prof. Harry Davis. Three is no admission charge, and the public is cordially invited to attend either performance. Smith Art Show Students will be iven the op portunity to exhibit their art work in an "opportunity pro ject" sidewalk art show. Smith Residence, Hall is pre senting a sidewalk art show on Eunday of Parent's Weekend, May 8. The purpose is to give UNC students an opportunity to dis play their artisitc talent. Any student may make an entry in the media of his choice. There is no entry fee but the regulations stipulate that pric ' es are set by the- student and 20 per cent of the price goes to Smith treasury. The other 80 per cent is clear profit for the student. . Entries may be made in any media: oils, charcoal, water color etc. artistically com posed photographs no smaller ttan 8 by 10 may also be en tered Each work entered must be framed, stripped or matted (white matting is usu ally more successful in presentation). Success' from the state. We were able to collect the largest amount of money ever contributed by these sources. "A problem is created, though, in that the Symposium is now more dependent on or ganizations and businesses outside Student Government for funds." Butler related several an edotes about the speakers, including historian Daniel See SYMPOSIUM On Page 6. Bulletin RALEIGH The law firm of Joyner and Howison of Raleigh was retained by Governor Dan K.

In preparation for this eve ning's events, several state ments were issued to the DTH: Armistead Maupin: "By tra dition, the "Parting Shots" as sembly is an occiaion of grati tude and good will. This is a very depressing tradition. Something should be done about it immediately. Gratitude and good will are a direct viola tion of my rights as a student." Bernard Baldwin: "After be ing a member of the Zeta Psi fraternity here at Carolina for four years, I feel that I have received the most liberal edu cation possible despite the ef forts of Dean Long to prevent it." George Butler: "I foresee in tense significance in the fact that the class of '66 is gradu ating on the morning of 6-6-66. Amongst other things I am sure we will be spending the rest of our lives attempting to determine whether we gradu ated on the 6th day of the 6th month or in the sixth month on the sixth day of 1966. Only those with a sixth sense will be able to tell us." Openings On Y Committee The YMCA Human Rela tions Committee is accepting applications to fill 12 openings in a group which will meet with civil leaders of Warren County on May 7.

Honor System Week Tries To Inform, Stem Offenses By TAYLOER BRANCH Special to the DTH The purpose of Honor Sys tem Week, April 24-30, is two fold. First, the speakers will at tempt to impart to the student body a thorough knowledge of the honor system as it is to day. They will appear in in formal meetings in the campus residence hall, fraternities and sororities. The second objective of the speakers is to acquaint the students with the target areas of Honor System reform, which are numerous. The codes and courts have evolved over a pe riod of some years into a workable system. There are, however, many who feel that the process of evolution must be prodded in several fields, and greatly accelerated in oth ers. A detailed explanation of the functional processes of the ju dicial set-up is beyond the lim its of this article. I leave it to the week's speakers, but there are a few points which I con a few points which I con sider vital and worthy of em phasis here: 1- The most frequent penalty for an Honor Code violation is one semester's suspension. The prevalence of extenuating cir ll nnn . v a I y !

Founded in 1903. the Order or the Golden Fleece is the oldest and highest men's honorary at Scovil, Receive By STEVE BENNETT DTH Staff Writer Elizabeth Penifiel (Penny) Scovil was presented the Irene F. Lee Award for the most outstanding senior woman at the Valkyrie Sing last night. The award is given annual ly through the office of t h e Dean of Women and is judg ed by the permanent awards committee. The selection was based on the characteristics of initia tive, co - operation, leader ship, character, industry, per serverance, ideals, judgment, dependability and scholarship. Miss Scovil is a senior nur sing student with a 2.672 aver age. She has been a Valkyrie for two years and is head of the honor organization this year. A member of the Women's Residence Council for three years, she has served as chair man of the council this year. She is a representative to the School of Nursing House Coun cil and served as President of the Nurses Residence Hall her junior year. First Of A Series cumstances causes many devia tions from this trend when ly ing is the offense, but it is fairly consistent to cheating and stealing. There is a disturbing ignor ance of this fact reflected on quizzes during orientation, and it is an object of great con cern when a student receives a penalty completely out of the range of his expectation. 2. The Honor Council is quite judicious and fair in seeing that the rights of the defendant are protected. As far as hu manly possible, the accused is considered innocent until prov en guilty. Moreover, council for or against a defendant are excluded from voting in his trial. 3. Drunkenness is consider ed as neither cause for further indictment nor license for len iency when related to an of fense. Blatant public drunken ness, however, is listed as a Campus Code violation in it self. 4. The Honor Council does not have the right to expel a student from school perman ently. It may suspend him in definitely a penalty effec tive until the Honor Council or Faculty Review Board accepts a petition for readmittance. Many of the proposed judicial K-frfc tnrln Inn Carolina. Receiving "the highest honor that can come to a Carolina student" were: Hugh Allen Blackwell. Roanoke Rapids; John Lindsey Freeman. Char lotte; William A. Graham, Jr.. Chapel Hill. John Matney Har- Pi Phi's Awards Penny Scovil Pi Beta Phi received the tro phy for the top academic rank ing of a sorority with a 2.7741 average. The sororities with the next highest grades were Delta Delta Delta, Kappa Kap pa Gamma, Stray Greeks and Kappa Delta. reforms are not subject to sear ing theoretical controversies, but are simply measures to expedite the trial process. Such changes as mechanical means of recording trials, better train ing of the Attorney General's staff, and adequate separation of the campus and honor codes need to be effected immediate ly. The deeper elements of Hon or System reform need to be considered more carefully. A partial list of the ideas dis cussed thus far includes the following: the applicability of the system during vacations, the second half of the Honor Code, the penalty of suspen sion, the location of disciplinary authority, the degree of student autonomy, the oblication of stu dents to the University, and means to make the system more effective. In subsequent articles Dean Long, Jim Aplin. and I will outline the issues involved in several of these areas. I hope that constructive student re sponse will be stimulated. Please remember that the Hon or System will be neither stat ic nor ineffective unless the student body allows it, and that partial solutions are usually worthless. The matter definite ly deserves much thought. n ., .iij,u,,,..,i ,,,i.,IIWii i, lu,,JLt, jr t ! ' ' 1 at Polk Place.

Other officers elected were Myles Eastwood, policy vice- chairman; Hurley Thompson, administrative vice-chairman; and Jed Dietz, Jim Little and Ann Brownless, to the advis ory board. Ann Belcher was re-elect ed secretary; Stu Rosen was unanimously elected trea surer; and Joe Auten was se lected as sergeant - at - arms. Hobgood announced in h i s speech that he would form a board of visitors to increase membership in the party, a Powder Puff Advisory Board" of coeds to find party appeals to women on campus and a party historian to compile a history of the SP. Hobgood, a second - term legislator from Joyner, assert ed that "the line which divid es SP-UP ideology is far less distinct than when I became a party member some two years ago. "No longer are we clearly the party of opportunity; no longer are we clearly the par ty of an open forum; no long er are we clearly the party of action." He urged the party to im prove its image and campaign actively to recruit more fresh men and women members. "We shall encourage more attention to the party's role as an investigatory body and an initiator of action from Stu dent Government," he declared.
