From the Republican camp, former Vice President Richard M. Nixon appealed to the vot ers to make election day "na tional price protest day" and should picket the White House instead of supermarkets. Lyndon B. Johnson, Demo cratic occupant of the Wite House, temporarily in T e x a s, had no immediate rebuttal. As always in these biennial election sweepstakes, some candidates were leading, some lagging and some just stay ing abreast of the pack. But the GOP counted with a mea sure of assurance on posting a net gain over the Democrats on the tote boards. There may be a record turn put approaching 59 million voters for this off - year, non presidential electon an elec tion with a bearing on the fut ure of Nixon and some other 1968 presidential possibilities as well as on where John son's "Great Society" legis lation will go and how fast. The 1962 election brought out the present off ,- year record of 53.2 million. " NIXON PREDICTS PROTEST VOTE En route by plane from New York to a rally for Repub lican state candidates at An derson, Inc., Nixon told newsmen; "A big vote will be a protest vote and that will help us. He proposed the price protest in a speech at Ander son. Nixon has been trading blasts with Johnson since Fri day, when one of the kinder things the President said about him was that he was a very undependable prophet although a fine individual. Nixon predicted to reporters today that "these shenanigans" will bring out a bigger vote and this will help the Republi can cause. Johnson flew from his ranch to Cotulla, Tex. where he earned money teaching school 33 years ago so he could go back to college. He used the occasion to tout what the ad ministration has done for ed ucation pledging billions of dollars last year "to help im prove your school and schools all over America." SURGERY SET This was in advance of a stopoff in San Antonio for tests in preparation for what his doc tors say will be minor sur gery later on his throat and a scar on his abdomen. Whatever effect his ex change of jabs with Nixon may have, there was general agreement among Democrats, Republicans and political rail birds that: The customary off - year trend against the party in power has set in again. So the GOP can count with about as much certainty as politics ever offers on some gains in Congress and gover norships and state legislatures. But no ousting of Demo cratic officeholders on any mammoth scale appears to be in the cards. The big stakes tomorrow are all 435 House seats, 35 of 100 Senate seats and 35 of 50 governorships.

RALEIGH (AP) North Carolina, apparently free of the clouds of political uncer tainty that blanket many oth er states on this election day, is expected to produce only one close congressional race the 4th District. Democratic Rep. Harold Cooley, a 32-year veteran of Congress and for 16 years chairman of the House Agri cultural Committee, is run ning neck-and-neck with Jim Gardner, a young Rocky Mount businessman and form er state Republican chairman. Although voters will select a U. S. Senator and 11 U. S. representatives two of them unopposed, only the Cooley -Gardner campaign has stirred the voter interest in the other wise dull election. A light to moderate turnout Reagan Vs. Brown LOS ANGELES, (AP) Two-term Democratic Gov. Edmund G. Brown and Repub lican Ronald Reagan, an ac tor in his first try at public office, flew to California's pop ulation centers yesterday seek ing the undecided among 8.34 million voters. Both candidates flew from rain-spattered Los Angeles to the North. Reagan's itinerary was Fres no, Sacramento and San Jose and later San Diego in the South. Brown planned stops only in San Jose and San Francisco his hometown and center of strength in a departure from the usual frantic election-eve flying tour common to the na Callaway Vs. Maddox ATLANTA, Ga. (AP) Geor gia's indecipherable election campaign, riddled with back lash and cross-overs, stuggled toward the polls today with the distinct possibility that no one will win the governor's race tomorrow A write-in movement has ad ded a new and unknown di mension to the historic gover norship battle between Repub lican Howard H. (Bo) Calla way, the state's only GOP Con gressman, and Democrat Les ter G. Maddox, the surprise primary winner who is known widely for refusing to desegre gate a cafeteria two years ago. Callaway is the first Repub lican to get his name on the ballot for governor of Georgia in 100 years. With his candi dacy, the GOP has mounted a major power drive with can didates for eight of the 10 Con gressional seats and 92 of the 259 state legislative seats. Indications are that Repub Gardner is expected in all but the 1st and 4th Districts. Gardner was beaten by Coo ley two years ago by a sur prisingly close 5,000 votes. This time, Gardner is a .slight , favorite, mainly because of his strong stand on Viet Nam and his demand for a reduc tion in food prices. Also, the 4th District, re shaped by a special session of the legislature, now is moving toward an urban rather than rural makeup. Cooley's strength has rested for many years in the farm vote. Although polls show Gard ner slightly ahead, Cooley is a veteran politician who has a tremendous vote - getting abi lity. The crack of the white backlash heard in other states has been no more than a weak echo in North Carolina. tion's most populous state. A final statewide nonparti san poll showed Reagan still ahead of Brown, as he has been since the long campaign began. But the two-percentage-point difference indicated around 800,000 potential voters still aren't committed to eit her man the group both par ties agree will swing the el ection. An 80 per cent voter turn out was predicted by Secre tary of State Frank M. Jordan, himself a 78-year-old GOP in cumbent seeking his seventh term. A Jordan aide said rain, which pelted the state for the last two days, would cut the figure by only one or two per cent if it persisted tomorrow. licans, who materialized into a significant force behind Bar ry Goldwater in 1964, will gain in both Congress and the Gen eral AssemMy. The GOP holds 23 seats in the 205-mem-( ber House, nine of the 54 Se nate seats. Republicans apparently are running strong in four Con gressional Districts now split 3-1 Democratic. Callaway, 39, an ex-Democrat, and Maddox, 51, who was a Democrat for Goldwater, stuck to the campaign trail today. Both were out stump ing for votes. Both scheduled last minute television appear ances. Both predicted victory. But a write-in campaign for Ellis G. Arnall, the former governor who was defeated by Maddox for the nomination, held the threat of blocking a majority for either nominee and throw ing the election into the legislature. H n ft t i..

Photo by Mike McGouxm Residence Colleges 7 Study UM By STEVE KNOWLTON DTH Staff Writer UNO's residence college sys tem may undergo basic chang es as a result of a two-day con ference at the University of Massachusetts last weekend. Dean of Men William G. Long said that he would meet with the delegates of the Amherst Conference this week to dis cuss what aspects of U. Mass.'s system can be applied to the UNC campus. Long accompanied 12 resi dence college delegates to Am herst for a first-hand look at the residence college system there. The group met with students faculty, and aclministration at the University of Massac setts on the merits of the re sidence college system over the traditional dormitory type of life. The plan was initiated in Massachusetts in 1964. The basic purpose of a re sidence college, administrators there say, is "to break down the de-personalization in high er education." To do this, seminar - style classes are held in the resi dence halls themselves, pro viding a more informal and relaxed atmosphere than the old "blackboard, map and lec turn classes." Of equal importance to the process, they feel, is the insti tution of Faculty Fellows pro grams, where facultv members live in the residence halls themselves. "When instructors and stu dents stop to chat at the same coffee machine, a greater rap port between the two is estab lished," said Dr. Arthur Kin ney, a UMass. Faculty Fellow for the new Southwest Resi dence College. Under these conditions, stu dents see an instructor as ot her than a mechanized lectur er speaking from a podium, and faculty members see stu dents as other than papers to be graded and attendence re cords to be kept. Student response to the Or chard Hills Residence College programs is "enthusiastic". v In this informal setting, stu dent creativity was reported higher than in the traditional setting. Grades of students in the residence college "may be somewhat higher than those who take the same courses in the regular classrooms." The new system was large ly faculty initiated and facul ty are encouraged to partici 31 xpeciiecti .1 4 i i t - 1 V-H- -He" -sr. sag -4p- . . V pate in it as Faculty Fellows and instructors in the living areas. In addition to publications, activity in the residence col lege is another criterion for promotion, reported UMass.'s Dean of Students John Fields. Plus the 60-some regularly scheduled classes held there, film forums, speaker programs and social gatherings with the faculty are offered. It was es timated that 80 per cent of the students have entered into these voluntary programs in jne form or another. At the conference were the governors of the Carolina re Traige, Allan Shepherd, Eh--inghaus; Dave McFadden, Davie; Bob Farris, Scott; Ken ailes, Wolfe; Dwight Allen, Morehead; and Ward Maillard, Granville Towers. Also, Lew Brown, President of MRC and three delegates from Morrison: Parker Hud son, Academic Lt. Gov.; Ric hard Levy, Finance Commit tee Chairman; and Steve Knowlton, editor, Mighty Mo, the Morrison College news paper. Pranksters Get Warning A series of apparent pranks have followed recent prowler episodes, Campus Security Chief Arthur Beaumont said Monday. He warned that such pranks might lead to serious conse quences. "Sooner or later, someone might get shot because of one of these jokes," he said. During the most recent in cident, two men climbed a fire escape at the Delta Delta Del ta sorority house early Mon day, police said. Girls there called police, but the two men escaped by the time officers arrived. Both Beaumont and Chapel Hill Police Chief speculated that the pair were pranksters and not connected with the prowler who has in the last two weeks invaded Winston and Spencer Dorms and the Tri-Delt and Kappa Delta Houses. Beaumont said the campus police will continue investigat ing all prowler reports and that he did not want to dis courage coeds from reporting a possible prowler.

General 'Jumping Jim' Gavin Speaks On Citizenship Tonight "Gaullism is a far more serious force than the average person in this country rea lizes. It is not something that will go away with the passing of the generation. It is a force that must be understood to be dealt with." General James Maurice Gavin, World War II hero who will deliver the Weil Lecture at 8 p.m. Tuesday in Hill Hall, said this in an April 1966 Harper's Magazine arti cle in which he reviewed four books on France and the "DeGaulle era." "There is a greater need for an understanding of Gaullism with the improvement of rela tions between the Soviet Un ion, the Eastern Bloc coun tries and the West," he said. Former U. S. Ambassador to France, Gavin devoted nearly four decades of service to his country before his 1958 retire ment from the U. S. Army. He will speak Tuesday on "The Responsibility of Citizen ship." After retiring from the arm ed services he spent the next several months presenting his ideas on military policy in his book WAR AND PEACE IN THE SPACE AGE (Harper, 1958). He explained that to fight a limited rather than a global war the U. S. must be prepared to expand its re sources to permit maximum mobility and flexibility.
