Vol. 73 p. CHAPEL HILL, N. C, SATURDAY, JUNE 11, 1966 No. 1 The Guard Changes Once Again While the University's fresh crop of black-robed graduates packed and waved and cried this week, their replacements be gan streaming into town. The official figures say 3,030 graduates left, and 12,000 students will return for sum mer school. The departure of the newly minted grad uates left mixed feelings: Ore professor said he was glad to see them leave. A secretary who asked that her name not be used, said, "That's the sad thing about working for a college. You just get to know them and they're gone. I don't know, they're just gone." They left for a variety of places. For the young men, the military was the largest consideration, so large it almost overshadowed everything else. Some were bound for the Navy or Air Force, many for the Army, and few for the Marines. Some for death in Viet Nam. Those safe from the draft also left, but with different destinations. There were jobs in Raleigh or Baltimore or Huntsville waiting. For the girls, there was marriage, teach ing, nursing, secretarial work, travel abroad or graduate study. For the returning students or the new students, there were only courses to be completed, grades to be gotten one way or another. The Monday on which they graduated was steamy, even for a June day. Beads of sweat hung on a few brows. The par ents sat bravely through commencement, although a few left when the clock hands passed nine and the governor hadn't spoken. But most stayed. After all, that was what r i they had paid for during all those years.

LSD, the controversial drug, is creeping into the UNC campus. Commencement in pictures. A new cartoon feature Wevils by Hen Whitfield (it stands for worthless evils). A partial text of Dr. Frank Graham's commencement address. An editorial statement of policy. Cycles Regulated University officials pres sured by "lack of space" have extended their partial ban on cars to include the recent flood of motorcycles and scooters. Upperclassmen with less than a 2.0 grade average and all freshmen will be prohibit ed from operating scooters and cycles as well as autos. Only automobiles have been regu lated in the past. C. O. Cathey, dean of student affairs, said the regulations would go into effect this Sep tember. "Of course," he added, "If there are exceptional circum stances, say a fellow has an injury or is commuting beyond a reasonable distance it'll be different." Cathey estimated that fresh men alone brought 400 scooters and cycles onto the campus last year. Officials have esti mated that 7,500 student mo tor vehicles and 5,000 staff and faculty cars can be expected on campus next year. Two new parking zones will also be created, one for fac ulty and administrative heads, one for staff members. Dean of Men William G. Long called "lack of space" the reason for scooter restric tion. He said that more than $3,000 has been spent to cre ate scooter parking places. The two separate faculty and staff zones will replace the cur rent zones assigned to staff members according to build ing. Under the dual zone sys tem, all faculty and adminis tration (including those in the medical complex) will receive "F" stickers giving them ex clusive parking rights in cer tain areas of the campus. Staff members will get "A" stickers, valid in all parking areas except "F" zones. Student parking will continue to be zoned in the same manner. 4
