Busy TV-Radio Men, Monitors, Wires In UNC Educational TV Mobile Unit "This is Remote KC 5-662. Are both machines free?. . . I have two tapes ready. Stand by to record . . . Check the audio board for level." That's the sound of WUNC Educational TV Mobile Unit preparing itself for work. From the outside its an innocent enough looking gray and white 33' 15 ton Trailways bus. The wires and black cable coming out of its door indicate it might not be an ordinary little bus. Inside there are no passen gers or seats, but busy radio TV men, six small monitors, one medium one, voices com ing out of complicated little boxes, and a real hub-tub of activity prior to "air time." The WUNC Mobile Unit, one of the best in the South, is used at Raleigh, Chapel Hill and Greensboro. "The Bus" as it is affectionately called in Swain Hall makes its home at the transmittor some five miles from Chapel Hill. Most mobile units are bread trucks or vans instead of a bus, so there is some distinction in the name. The Unit travels extensive ly. One day it may be at Hill Hall for a recital, one week situated at Memorial Hall, for the Symposium, or covering Speaker Ean Hearings in Ral eigh. It has been used by all three major networks and NBC used it in Washington to cov er election returns from the White House and a parade for the astronauts. "Bus" has everything need ed for direct transmission of the war" and that "the allies are distrubed bv the U. S. un ilateral involvement in the war." He asserted that "the fact that two or three Vietnamese civilians are killed for every Viet Cong is a moral question that has hardly been asked. "The Viet Cnna are ortoin. ferment is simply an illusion that, for instance, our political science department is helping or sus taining our military effort in Viet Nam. Some persons instrumental to the defense effort at home should be deferred, he added, including nuclearphysicists and those in natural sciences. Peaceniks Listen As Prof Hits War By DAVID ROTIIMAN DTH Staff Writer More than 90 students yes terday heard Prof. Lewis Lip sitz of the Political Science De partment say he would rather go jail than fight in Viet Nam. He spoke at a seminar spon sored by the Student Peace Union, some of whose mem bers have been fasting since Monday to protest the war. Orange juice and vitamins will constitute the only nour ishment to be taken by the eight students who began fasting early Monday. The fast will conclude with a silent vigil Friday afternoon. Lipsitz, a short thin man wearing glasses, sat Indian -style on a newspaper while he explained he would have fought in Korea or World War II, but not Viet Nam. He said the Viet Nam war had two desirable effects. It enforced a reconsideration of the draft, he said, and (2) prompted greater political in terest by "the intellecutal com munity. It was their bar mitz vah . . . their becoming men." "The war," he continued, "al so provided an opportunity to test weapons. Some people think this is desirable ... I don't."

Those mysterious technical people in Swain Hall have nicknamed their mobile unit, a 15-ton Trailways Bus, just plain "Bus" be cause unlike most mobile units it is not just a an event, snows can be tele vised directly from the bus or later via video tape. There is room for four cameras assort ed audio equipment.

The state Selective Service Board in Raleigh told the DTH yesterday that they had not been notified of a new appli cation date or whether or not there would be an additional testing session scheduled. They expect notification in the near future and will make the information public as soon as they are notified. About 1 million students had applied for the test to deter mine whether or not they will keep their draft deferments by the deadline. Additional thousands had fail ed to sign up until the last day found that local draft boards were closed because the dead line fell on a Saturday. Tests have been schedlued for May 14, 21 and June 3 at 1,200 locations in the 50 states, Washington, D. C, the Canal Zone and Puerto Rico. The Polk Place crowd at times numbered over 100. Many were attracted by a TV camera from WSOC, a Charlotte station. Before the seminar, SPU members, some wearing black arm bands, sold brightly col ored buttons protesting the war. Among the buttons' messag es were: "Draft Beer Not Stu dents." "Kill For Peace, Kill for Freedom, Kill Vietnamese, KILL, KILL KILL." "All Hands Off Vietnam." "Don't think, follow Do not talk. Shoot It's the Amer ican Way." Nearby was a bulletin board with a pamphlet proclaiming that electric shock as being used for torture in both Viet Nam and Georgia. Chuck Schunior, UNC SPU head, said his group will dis cuss "Saigon and Selma" at 2 p.m. in Polk Place. He says the civil rights struggle and the war in Asia are related. Schunior says the war on poverty is being handicapped by students' having to stay in school to avoid military See LIPSITZ On Page 6 o gineer who always goes along and is in charge of keeping the bus in running order.

Rebirth Of Speaker Ban Sought By Maryland VFW (ACP) A top official of Maryland's Veterans of For eign Wars has announced that his group will seek to reintro duce the controversial college speaker ban resolution when the State Legislature meets in January, 1967, the University of Maryland Diamondback re ports. This session's speaker ban resolution, which died in com mittee, asked that state - sup ported schools prohibit Com munists or Communist sympa thizers from speaking or par ticipating in programs at state institutions. The official, Commander Charles A. Kreatchman, said: "We're not afraid of having Lurleen Wins Alabama Vote From The Associated Press Segregationist Governor George C.

Alabama's primary was the first major Southern election since passage of the 1965 Fed eral Voting Law. Federal poll watchers were in severn counties to guard against election law infrac tions. The earliest closing hour for any Alabama polls was 7 p.m., EDT. Some polls had a 9 p.m. EDT, closing tune and it could be well into the night hours before any clear picture developed of how Mrs. Lurleen Wallace did in her effort to succeed her husband. She was opposed by nine male oppon ents. Most political analysts ex pected Mrs. Wallace to be the leader among the field. Ad vance questions were whether she could get a majority and. if not, who would be the run nerup, and contestant in a run off May 31. Contenders against Mrs Wallace were State Atty. Gen.

It's just that we don't like the idea of them learning about it from Communist dupes." Delegate Edward T.

Fifty-two Negro candidates were also running for county offices or legislative seats the first serious political ef forts by Negros in Alabama since reconstruction. Both Wallace's attempt to succeed himself by proxy and the massive Negro vote about 20 per cent of the 1.4 million voters - were unprece dented in the state. Wallace put up his wife when the state senate killed a succession bill. Atty. Gen. Flowers, the only gubernatorial candidate ac tively seeking the Negro vote, was expected to garner nearly all of it. Flowers, a racial moderate and outspoken crit ic of Wallace's segregation tactics, has plugged for "rea son and realism instead of re sistance and rebellion." Wallace and his wife voted at their hometown of Clayton in the southeastern part of the state and then were pre sented an American flag by some Girl Scouts. The Gover nor predicted victory for his wife, both in the primary and the November general election against a Republican. A large group of Negroes watched the Wallaces talk pol itics with newsmen. Some Negroes lined up at the polls there before 5 a.m. An official in Montgomery said long lines resulted partly from the length of the ballot, slowing down the rate of vot ing. Wallace won office in the 1962 election on a pledge to stand in the schoolhouse door and block integration. He made the doorway stand at the Uni versity of Alabama, Tusca loosa, in 1962 but yielded to federalized National Guards men. His efforts to prevent school desegregation that first year of his term resulted in a fed eral court injunction against interference by the Governor. Wallace entered several non southern presidential primar ies in 1964 ang got sizeable votes but withdraw after Bar ry Goldwater became the Republican nominee. Alabama racial conflict play ed major roles in the Civil Rights Law of 1964 and the voting rights legislation enact ed last year. The 1965 law re sulted directly from a Selma -based civil rights campaign led by Dr Martin Luther King Jr. Group To Pick Top Professor The Excellence in Teaching Commission is now accepting nominations for an award to go to an outstanding profes sor on campus.
