Fisher, D-Tex., whether there should be provisions to deal with persons who will fully urge others to violate the draft laws, Clark said: "Yes I certainly do. If there isn't a law now there should be one to make it a severe punishable offense." Man On Moon Plan Still On Schedule WASHINGTON Space chief James E.

Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts said here Tuesday night that once the Vietnam war is over he can see no justification for Ameri can military presence in Viet nam, and that it is "not our job to try to bring . . .the I Great Society to Asia.". The young senator, address ing an overflow audience of more than 2,000 students, facu lty and guests in Memorial ; Hall, said that the only reason he could foresee justification for American intervention ,i would . be Chinese expansion, : and this, he said, is unlikely. "China has mighty armies, ; but their strength is in de fense," he said. "She is too unbalanced militarily,, too pre occupied with her internal pro blems" to significantly aid up ; risings in Asia. In light of this, Sen. Kennedy wind up here." This year, apparently, more than 50 per cent have decided on this campus. Bernard isnat worried about the extra students. "A jump of 100 or so isn't too bad. "I . think a university of this size can stand 100 or so more," he said. Bernard said there are five criteria for picking the size of the incoming cl a s s "housing space available, classroom space, instruction facilities, faculty and budget." Of the projected 2300, 1875 were supposed to be men and 425 to be women freshmen. He did not say how many of each had accepted UNC. Bernard said the figures of those accepted were based upon those who had paid en rollment and room deposits. "However, these figures are not final," he added. "There may still be some more who come here that we don't know about yet, and there well may be some who have paid who never show up." - While housing shortage is a major criterion of admiss ions, he said, Granville Tow ers and the new Hinton James will greatly alleviate this pro blem. Bernard said many other Universities send out letters of refusal to some applicants when they find they have over - enrolled. "We don't do that here, though. It has always been my feeling that if we accept a student and he accepts us, then we should let him come here. "To turn around and write him saying there is not enough space for him is a pretty poor way of doing things." Move Out Coeds Move In happy about having to move to South Campus, but if the state won't give the University mon ey to build new women's dorms, there doesn't seem to be much the administration can do." Mrs. Dorothy Fulghum of the Dean of Wom en's Office stated this week that the Dean of Men and the Dean of Women's Offices are jointly re commending Connor Winston and Joyner join Hinton James to form a new resi dence College in the fall. "But, a dorm could request membership in an existing college on north campus if it de sired," she said. "I don't know of any one body who determines who joins which col lege." Cindy Borden, President of Winston Dormi tory, said, however, Dean of Men William Long told dormitory presidents that to join an existing college would disrupt the system in some instances that forming a new college would be the better solution. "I don't think moving girls into Wolfe Col lege represents any trend to isolate girls on North Campus and men on South , Camups," asisome have said," she commented. "I think coeds are still scattered over the campus advocated a policy of restraint when the war is over. "We must honor the com mittments we have made, but be very careful about new ones. We should hold oursel ves back . . . because our power is limited and can of ten do more harm than good," he said. Kennedy stated that one of the basic faults of U.S. policy in Vietnam is that "we have identified ourselves far too closely with specific regimes . . . giving the impression that we agreed it was more im portant for these governments to control the population than to serve it." He cited the cases of Syng man Rhee in Korea and Diem in Vietnam. "As their troubles increased, their setbacks became our em bar assments. We felt obligated to become even more deeply involved." Kennedy, asked what alter native he favored in the com ing Vietnam referendum on this campus, indicated he agreed with the proposal to de-escalate military activities, includ ing bombing of North Vietnam, and increased efforts to bring the Communists and presum ably the Viet Cong to the negotiation table. His reply brought cheers from the packed audience. In his speech, the senator commented that the guerrilla movements in Vietnam offered "discontented people a purpose, a faith, an organization and a way of life." "But," he emphasized, "it is not our business to suppress them. It is not our mission to ig Day Set For Seniors Hie election of the perma nent Senior Class Officers and a Mr. and Miss Alumnus, the announcement of the class gift, and a review of the year by the Senior Class officers will highlight the meeting of the Senior Class tonight in Me morial Hall at 8:00. The permanent class offi cers will be responsible for organizing class reunions and raising funds from the class members to be donated to the University in the future. A Mr. and Miss Alumnus will be selected in order to recopnize two outstanding se niors. Tickets for the class party free beer will also be distrib uted at this meeting. Seniors are urged to attend to receive their tickets and to participate in the class activities. The Class Day Party will begin at 2.30 at the American Legion Hut with Maurice Uil liams and the Zodiacs. The Tropics and the Robinson Brothers will follow present ing a show beginning at 7:30. During the day the seniors will have the opportunity to consume some twenty kegs of free beer. The senior girls will have special late permission until 12:30 for the occasion. enough to prevent that." Miss Borden said Winston coeds will vote next fall whether to join a residence college "after we know which one we're assigned to." June Orr, appointed President of Connor for 1967-1968 by Women's Residence Council expects her 'dormitory will vote for member ship in some residence college. Does she feel Connor girls are being isolat ed in a female community? "That's what seems to be happening so far. Nurses Dorm is the only women's dorm on South Campus now. Dean Long has said in a statement to women's house presidents that this trend is out of necessity they can't build a high-rise women's dorm because of finances. "This isolation is a trend, but it doesn't have to be if the legislature will give us the money." Since the decision was made last semester to convert the Wolfe College men's dorms to coeds' use, Dean of Women Katherine Carmi chael has repeatedly stated that she consid ered it the best available remedy to coed hous .Restraint make Asia safe for the man darins and landlords." He also advocated the re moval of U.S. military bases in Asia after the Vietnam war is over, adding that they would not be necessary because "Communism in the sense of Chinese or Russian power of fends other Asians." Their own nationalistic ten dencies, he added, will be the ultimate determinant of the status of their countries. Kennedy said he was "very hopeful" that North and South Vietnam could be united in the Phone Hookup Part Of Inquiry Carolina will be on the re ceiving end of a national tele phone hookup at 8 tonight in which the Vietnam war will be discussed. As part of what is called the National Day of Inquiry, sev eral Harvard University pro fessors will sit in a panel dis cussion. By telephone hookup, 65 colleges and universities across the country will be able to broadcast the discussion. The local hookup will be in 111 Murphey Hall. "This is designed to be a day of inquiry," Student Body Vice President Jed Dietz said Monday, "and that's exactly what it is.

Students gave the senator two standing ovations during the course of his speech. When he left Memorial Auditorium about 9:15 p.m., he was met by several hundred students who followed him across McCorkle Place to Morehead Planetar ium to talk with members of the CPU and Carolina Forum, the group which sponsored his appearance.

Some 100,000 students are expected to hear the discus sion. Besides the 65 schools in contact, students from 150 oth er schools have been invited to those campuses on the hook up.

"I've been promising the girls for years that they'd have a new dorm biult for them, and I've done all .that's humanly possible to get one for them. "We'd thought we'd have a new dorm this year, but the legislature severely cut back the whole budget requested by the university this year, and the dorm fell by the wayside." "If I had the money I'd love for them to have it. But Connor and Joyner have the ad vantages of closeness to the library, hospital complex, eating facilities and classes the same qualities that made me choose Winston for the girls two years ago. "These are well-constructed buildings, rela tively new, and they are being renovated com pletely for the girls. I believe I might even choose these dorms over building a new one if the new one has to be on South Campus they'll be comfortable, attractive places . to live, which is what I want for the girls." "Right now we have to make the best of the situation, and well have to look to Raleigh for a final solution."
