TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1966 Carolina's Social Fraternities YV nite To Contribute Blood Here Founded February 23. 1893 , 4 phiu Parties, NEW YORK, (AP) - The nation had the usual run of tiny, door - to door ghosts and goblins this halloween night, but among teen - age spooks, there appeared to be a trend to parties and dances and away from vandalism in the streets. A party in Baltimore, Md., has been going on since Oct. 22 when the Junior League opened a haunted house in T o w s o n Amory, complete with volunteer ghosts, bats and witches cavorting in a repli ca of Batman's cave. The Detroit Parks Depart ment scheduled 30 carnival parties around the city and police closed off a number of streets for about 200 block parties. Such goings on aren't new in Nevada, Mo., which held its 20th "Anti - Van" party for junior high and high school stu dents. Since the event began, there has been virtually no Halloween vandalism in that city. Vandalism may be headed off in northern Indianapolis, Ind., by a citizen goblin pa trol. And if it works, Jeffer sonville, Ind., may want to try it next year. Police there reported yesterday that some hearty witches Sunday night used chain saws to fell 25 trees across country roads. Three young Muncie, Ind., boys had a Halloween party despite the fact that they used their entire pop bottle sav ings $4.50 to pay a vet erinarian to set a mongrel dog's broken leg. The boy's parents decided one good deed deserved ano ther, and financed the hurri edly rescheduled party. In Cincinnati, Ohio, and Tal lahassee, F 1 a., Halloween Pum 'Antigone' Plays Roberts Batson has a prob lem, but as an actor it's the kind of problem he likes. As the Chorus in the Caro lina Playmakers' production of Jean Anouilh's "Antigone," Batson has the difficult prob lem of enacting a role that re quired fifteen people when the original "Antigone" by Soph ocles was first produced in fifth-century Greece. The Chorus in the ancient tragedy functioned as an in terpreter of the action, as an interlocutor for the characters, and as an outlet for the play wright's personal opinions con cerning the themes of the play. Anouilh's Chorus serves the same purpose in the modern "Antigone," but the play wright has added a human quality to it. His Chorus speaks directly to the audience in a familiar, relaxed, conver sational tone. As a character, he is the embodiment of the all - knowing "master of cere monies." Batson, a native of Manza nillo, Dominican Republic, has The Great Pumpkin Is Here! Day Marked By Dances, was a tense affair as police asked parents to keep little trick - or - treaters home dur ing the night following a rash of unsolved murders. Because of five rape - stran glings in Cincinnati, much of that city's treats were distri buted Sunday afternoon dur ing daylight hours after po lice said they feared that nighttime goblins might be mistaken by jittery citizens for prowlers, Or worse. The same request was made by Tallahassee police following Tyndall Is For Frosh Robert Tyndall announced yesterday afternoon that he is running as an independent candidate for freshman class president. Tyndall, from Durham, said he was running because the other two cnadidates are "rid ing the momentum of their party to victory without feel ing that they have to start new ideas or new thought in the freshman class." He also charged they have no platform to deal with basic issues. To vote for him, Tyndall ex plained, a freshman should write Tyndall's name on the ballot for freshman class president. Tyndall has been on studenlf council for six consecutive years, serving as student body president for two years. He was a page at the United Na appeared with the Carolina Playmakers in "Hamlet," "The Fantasticks," "Little Mary Sunshine," and "Finian's Rainbow." Aside from assignments with the Playmakers, Batson, an acting-directing major in the Fine Arts program at UNC, has exercised his theatrical versatility as actor and direc tor with the Triangle Theatre in Durham, the Purefoy Play ers in Chapel Hill, WUNC-TV, and with the outdoor drama, "Unto These Hills." Directed by Harry Davis, "Antigone" opens in the Play makers Theatre Wed., Nov. 9 and runs through Mon., Nov. 14. Due to a large demand for tickets, there will be two per formances on Sat, Nov. 12, one at 8:00 p.m., and another at 10:15 p.m. There will also be a 2:30 matinee on Sunday, Nov. 13. Tickets for all performances are now available at the Play makers business office, 214 Abernethy Hall, and at Led-better-Pickard in downtown Chapel Hill. Mail orders are accepted.

The Carolina Playmaker's production of "Antigone" opens on November 9 for a four day run. Carolina's 24 social fraterni ties last night night began a united, all-out effort to contri bute blood to the North Caro lina Memorial Hospital Blood Bank. Under the supervision of the IFC, the University Adminis tration and Hospital officials, representatives of the social fraternities on campus (a po tential of 1200 men) will be come "stand-by" blood donors for hospital emergencies. IFC President Lindsay Free man of Charlotte, said, "This project provides good utiliza tion of fraternity manpower. Often times it is not put to as good use as it has potential for being. Gving blood is a positive service to UNC, North Carolina and the community. I hope it can be as successful as we've planned." Members of the IFC "kicked off' the blood drive by being cataloged and typed at the Hospital's Blood Bank yester day. In the next two weeks other fraternity volunteers will go through the same typing pro cess to provide the Hospital a record of many more potential blood donors than now are av ailable for emergency use. For the past two weeks IFC members have been discussing possible services they could render to the University com munity. A series of talks with Dean of Student Affairs C. O. Cathey and Campus Police Chief Arthur Beaumont pro duced the blood donation idea. Further investigation with Dr. Frances Wiedmann, Blood Bank Director, revealed a con tinual demand for great amounts of blood in the hos pital complex. Tri Activities Chairmen were appointed to handle the details and the project was initiated after unanimous approval by every fraternity. Chairmen are Lansing Lee, John Call'an, and Amendment The Student Legislature is presently considering four amendments to the Student Constitution. Should these four amendments be pass ed before the regular fall election, they shall be sub mitted to the student body for ratification on Tuesday, November 8, 1966. Amendment I. limits the operation of the Campus Code to the university com munity and organized stu dent functions. Amendment II establish es a Supreme Court of the, Student Body and provides for the establishment of lower courts by the Stu dent Legislature.

"We've had a lot of prob lems with poster destruction in the past," McKeown said, "We want to prevent that kind of activity this year." McKeown said there will be "very strict enforcement" of the Campus Code when deal ing with violators. "It is very ungentlemanlike and unladylike conduct to de stroy the posters," McKeown said. Jay Schwartz, another elec tions board member, said there had already been some de struction of posters in the larger dorms, and called the actions "extremely childish and dirty politics."

"Blood donation is the most reqarding and continuing ser vice the fraternities could con tribute to the University com munity," Chief arthur Beau mont said. "I think it is very degrading to make fraternity m do such projects as picking up paper after a rough weekend and it certainly is not long lasting. Donating blood, on the other hand, is a continuing thing." "In my opinion," he continu ed, "most fraternity men are decent.

He fled from the Tri - Delt house, 210 Pittsboro St., about .4:30 a.m. Sunday after three of the sisters awoke to find him in their second - story room. The girls immediately call ed police, who immediately surrounded the house. He ran out of the room, down the stairs and through a side door as soon as the girls woke up. "Nobody could scream," one of them said Monday. British Accompanist-Comedian Scheduled For Artist Famed English accompanist Gerald Moore will appear Wednesday through Friday on campus in the first of the 1966 67 Artist Seminars. His program "Am I Too Loud?" has been called by the London Times "as hilari ously funny as it is artistical ly profound." He has been heralded by the Philadelphia Inquirer as "diverting, ur bane, fascinating, charming, authoritative and captivat ing." Considered by many critics to be the world's greatest ac companist and coach, Moore has played with such famous soloists as Mesdames Flag stad, Gerhardt, Hempel, Schu mann, Leider, Giannini, Reth berg, and Messrs. Chaliapin, Fischer-Dieskau, Kipnis, Mel chior, Schorr, Janssen, Mc Cormick. A native of Hertfordshire, England, Moore for over forty years made his headquarters in London, from there touring the great European capitals. He first came to America in 1926 as accompanist for the English tenor, John Coates. When he returned in 1954 for his first lecture - recital, "The Unashamed Accompanist," he began cross country tours. a small majority can make them look bad. This project is the most rewarding thing they could possibly do and it should change their bad image all together." President of the North Car olina Hemophilia Foundation Dr. Phillip P. Webster of the UNC Dental School said, "We are always in vital need of blood but more than ever now. The war in Viet Nam has put a terrible strain on our sup ply of blood so that there is a 'total shortage' nationwide." He expalined the Red Cross supplies all the blood for Viet men look on. From left are Dr. Hurt, Free man, Beaumont, Lansing Lee, John Callan and Jim Parrott. The prowler did not harm any of the girls, they said. The three called police, who immediately surrounded the house. They questioned seve ral men in the area, but made no arrests. There was speculation that the man had entered the house before closing hours Saturday night and hid. This is the same method believed used in the Winston incident. Chapel Hill Police Chief said that if police were called quickly enough in future in stances, they could probably catch the prowler by surround ing the area. V Gerald Nam. "Whereas they used to give us all their extra blood for use in our hospital, it is now going to Viet Nam for U. S. service personnel. Indi rectly, this IFC project is a very patriotic thing. "Ten percent of its total us age goes for hemophilia vic tims," he said. "In North Ca rolina and southern Virginia, between 300400 patients are hemophiliacs and come to N.C. Memorial for treatment. About 75 per cent of them suffer from Hemophilia A and an other 15 per cent from Christ mas Disease (Hemophilia B). The other 10 per cent suffer from rarer bleeding disorders such as Stuart's Disease and Parahemophilia. "We are faced with an av erage of two or three victims daily who must be provided with monumental amounts of blood and our Blood Bank is under great demands to met the needs of these people." He added, "The fraternities are doing a very vital job. It is important to let the State know the college kids are real ly doing something worth while." Dr. Widemann added "The greatest amount of blood is needed for general surgery al though open heart surgery us es the most per opration. Other emergencies such as leu kemia and automobile acci dents require varying amounts of blood. In the past three months alone, hemophilia vic tims used 206 units of plas ma." . The Inter - Fraternity Coun cil, the social fraternity gov erning body is composed of the President and one repre sentative member from each social chapter on campus. Helms Invited To Give Tails Morrison Jesse Helms has been invited to speak on campus. The invitation, issued Friday by Armstrong House of Mor rison Residence College, leaves the selection of the date of the speech to Helms. The letter inviting Helms said the invitation was issued because of "the stand Helms has taken on the Michael Paull case and in light of the fact that this stand has met with antagonistic responses from many members of our student body and also in light of the fact that Helms is a controver sial and respected North Caro linian."
