Committee Okays Student Draft Deferments
. WASHINGTON The House Armed Services Com
mittee voted today to continue draft deferments for
college students. It also voted to restrict President
Johnson's authority to move to a lottery style draft.
The decisions were taken as the committee moved
close to final approval of a bill extending the Selec
tive Service System for four more years.
Chairman L. Mendel Rivers, D-S.C, said college de
ferments would be written into the law under the
committee bill, instead of leaving the issue to presi
dential discretion.
The Senate has already passed a four-year exten
sion that, recommends continued college deferments,
but leaves the final decision to the president.
Waste In Vietnam Construction Cited
WASHINGTON Waste and inefficiency by the
Navy and a huge contractor combine pushed up con
struction costs unnecessarily during the rapid build
up of U.S. forces in Vietnam, the General Accounting
Office charged Wednesday.
The Congressional watchdog agency cited such
things as "property being pilfered, stolen and misap
propriated," use of higher quality than usual mater
ial, shipping by air insead of ship such things as darts
and dartboards.
"Our survey," the GAO said, "indicated that neith
er the Navy nor the contractor was adequately equip
ped to handle the massive expansion of the construc
tion program in late 1965 and the first half of 1966."
Policeman Killed In TSU Riots
HOUSTON, Tex. A rookie policeman died of a
gunshot wound early Wednesday in a battle between
officers and student snipers at Texas Southern Univer
sity, the state's largest Negro school. Three other per
sons suffered wounds;'
Police said more than 3,000 rounds of ammunition
were fired.
While police questioned 488 students arrested dur
ing the four - hour dormitory siege, city and school
officials sought to discover what led to an outbreak
Mayor Louie Welch said amounted to anarchy.
Patrolman Lewis R. Kuba was shot between the
eyes as he crouched on the terrace of the Student Union
Building during on assault with some 100 fellow police
men on the dormitory from which students were fir
ing guns and hurling crude fire bombs.
Kuba, 25, died about 7 1-2 hours later without re
covering consciousness. His widow is expecting their
first child and the couple had moved into a new home
only Tuesday.
Liquor-By-Drink Vote Asked In Mecklenburg
RALEIGH Mecklenburg county's three-member
Senate delegation introduced a bill Wednesday
which would permit the voters in their county to hold
a referendum on the sale of liquor by the drink.
Sen. Charles Maxwell, a co-sponsor, predicted the
measure will be approved by the Senate.
Although state-wide in application, the bill
would apply now only to Mecklenburg, the state's most
populous county.
In sending up the bill, Maxwell appealed to the
Senate to "let us experiment with this. A majority
of our people feel this is the dignified way to han
dle liquor."
Soviet Naval Challenge Reported
ROME The commander of the U. S. 6th Fleet
reported a growing Soviet naval challenge in the
Mediterranean Sea on Wednesday. And in Moscow, the
commander in chief of the Soviet navy accused the
United States of causing last week's two ship-bumping
incidents during American maneuvers in the Sea
of Japan. . ' .
Vice Adm. William I. Martin said Soviet vessels
have sailed into the middle of formations of his 6th
Fleet in the Mediterranean and followed U. S. ships
for days He called the Soviet buildup over the past
several years a significant threat to the 6th Fleet
for 20 years the strongest naval force in the Mediter
ranean. , . . , 0
In Moscow, Adm. Sergei G. Gorshkov said U. S.
ships had come within 80 miles of the Soviet coast in
the Pacific.

N. C. 86 And 54 Like
Driving Om A Serpent
By HUNTER GEORGE
DTH Staff WriUr
On a wet night you could
kill yourself.
They would call it a "high
way fatality' an accident.
That probably would end it.
But what would not end
would be the dangerous con
dition of N. C. Highway 86
and N. C. Highway 54.
These narrow, windy, hilly
roads are scenic on a pretty .
day. But they can become
slick, treacherous serpents on
a rainy night when the two
worn - smooth tire grooves
down the center of each half
of the road become even
smoother.
Anybody who has driven
these roads can affirm this
fact. And there are plenty of
people who have driven and '
VISTA h
Recruiting
Here Today
Today is the last day for
VISTA recruiting on campus
this year. VISTA is the
branch of the' Federal Gov
ernment concerned with al
leviating poverty throughout
the US.
The organization will re
cruit over 4500 students this
year for 300 projects. Their
new, accelerated policy will
offer students with Bachelors'
degrees much more opportun
ity than in the past, said as
sistant Field Director Sheld
on Butts.
Attention: If your moth
er or father graduated
from UNC in 1942, you
are asked to come to the
Old Well at 4 today and
have your picture taken.
The Alumni Office" and
members of the class of
'42 are planning a reun
ion and would like your
picture.
There are about 25 of
you on this campus, please
try to attend.
continue to drive them-every
weekend.
Greensboro (and UNC-G)
is 42 miles down the road,
provided you make it to the
superhighway. Raleigh is 29
miles, but there is no super
highway. The speed limit is 55 miles
per hour, and is strictly en
forced. But that doesnt al
leviate the condition of the
road. -
It's a harrowing feeling to
be cruising 45 m.p.h. in a
drizzling rain and suddenly
feel your car swerve to the
side of the road.
- Another disturbing sensa
tion is to feel your wheels i
spin as if stuck in muoV-at
45 or 50 m.p.h. then sudden
ly grip the road and jerk the
car,;: ;;; , ,.
It happens.
The signs along these two
roads are plentiful. Most of
them either indicate a sharp
curve ahead or warn "SLIP
PERY WHEN WET."
So far this year no one has
died on these roads, although
six persons have been in
jured on each.
But a look at accident rec
ords for the past two years
indicates that things could
stand improvement.
On. the 10.7 mile stretch of
N. C. 86 from Chapel Hill to
Interstate 85, a total of 92
accidents have occurred since
Jan. 1, 1965. These accounted
for 45 personal injuries and
took two lives.
Property damage amounted '
to $51,900, according to fig
ures from the Traffic Engi
neering Division of the N. C.
Highway Commission.
The 21.8 mile stretch of
N. C. 54 from Chapel Hill to
Raleigh, on the other hand,. .
saw 250 accidents, involving
105 injuries, eight deaths
and $130,814 in property dam
age. A comparison of these fig
ures reveals that N. C. 86 has
nearly the same accident rate
. per million vehicle miles
(MVM) as the statewide ac
cident rate 2.5 as compared
to the state figure of 2.8.
The MVM for N. C. 54,
however, is 3.5, or one full
accident per MVM above the
rate for the rest of North
Carolina.
A spokesman for the De
partment of Motor Vehicles
told the Daily Tar Heel last
week that these roads are
not regarded as "priority'.'
areas for improvements. '
Widening and resurfacing
of small sections of both., was
done within the past two :
years, but the roads have not
had a major overhaul hu
about 10 years.
The Department of Motor
Vehicles is planning to com
pletely relocate N. C. 54 all
the way to Raleigh, but the
work will begin on the sec
tion from Durham to Raleigh,
rather than on the section
near Chapel Hill. M
This project is still in the
planning stages, the spokes
man said, and estimated com
pletion date is not certain.
Meanwhile, UNC students
and Chapel Hillians will con
tinue to travel the slick roads
in hopes that someday, some
time, somebody will widen
and resurface them.

The 1967 Yackety Yacks
will be mailed to students
this year, according to Clark
Egeler Jr., editor-in-chief of
the Yack.
"Due to circumstance be
yond their control, Taylor
Publishing Company will be
unable to deliver the Yacks
to the student body at a time
convenient for the students to
pick them up before leaving
for summer vacation," Eage
ler said.
"Therefore, the printer will
mail the Yacks individually
to each student's home ad
dress provided by the office
of Central Records.
"All students who do not
want their Yacks to be mail
ed to their home address
should advise the printer no
later than May 31, 1967, of
their address from the per
iod June 1 to July 15, 1967.
All such requests should be
sent to the following address:
Attention Fred Koger, c-o Tay
lor Publishing Company, Box
597, Dallas, Texas, zip code
75221."
Egeler explained that the
publishing company is taking
complete responsibility for the
delay, because it is due to
an unexplained mix-up. They
will begin mailing the Yacks
at their own expense at the
beginning of June.
Several major changes have
been made in the format this
year's Yack. For instance, it
includes three to four. -times
as many pictures as .last
year's edition. Over 90, are
color pictures, half of which
are the sweethearts of the

a preview for a movie of the

"We are using a totally
different kind of copy this
year," Egeler said. "A new
concept" was employed for
the introduction to the an

15 pictures each. These por
tray a day, a year, and a
lifetime of a student at the
University.
A two-page editorial sec

the literary editor. They deal
with the relationship of the
University to the state, the
state of publications at the
University, women's rules on
campus, and the state of
athletics at the University.

Students here will get new
identification cards next year,
Dean of Men William G. Long
announced Wednesday.
The new card, to be con

will have a color photograph
of the student, his name, his
social security number and
his birthday embossed on it.
The cards will be some
thing like gasoline credit
cards and can be used in

All students will have to
get a new card. The Dean
said final plans for when the
new ID's will be made will
be announced in the fall.

"While the results will not
be tabulated in time for the

ing arrangements with South
Building to post them in
women's dorms and possibly
in Y-Court and several of the
larger men's dorms," WRC
Chairman Sharon Rose said.
"We want the men to know
how the girls voted too!"
The referendum was origi
nally scheduled for Tuesday
under supervision of the Stu

Board, but a shortage of bal
lots and errors in the voting
instructions and questions on
the ballot voided the Tues
day vote.
WRC had the ballots cor
rected and reprinted private

representatives, and sorority
house managers distributed
the ballots to their residents
at 9 p. m. and collected them
at 12:30 a.m.
Mr. Geer Tries To Keep UNC Personal
By WAYNE HURDER
DTH Staff WHUr
"We must not let our students feel lost
in an impersonal University world if we can
prevent it," says Modern Civilization Pro
fessor William Geer.
To do this he sees a "need to develop
new and imaginative ways of maintaining
a personal relationship between professors
and students."
One of Geer's methods of doing this is a
"period of free dialogue," as he calls it,
with whomever cares to stop and talk ev
ery Wednesday at 4 p.m. under the Davie
Poplar.
His present students, former students,
and students unknown to him join the con
versations to continue discussions that
were carried on in class or to talk about
current issues.
He emphasizes that "this is just my way
of solving a problem I see. Many students
feel lost and that there is no one to whom
they can talk."
"I'm perfectly sure hundreds of faculty
members are willing to make themselves
available to students, but in a formal uni
versity setting it is necessary for the stu
dent to make the first step," he adds.
Geer, who has taught Modern Civilization
for the past 20 years, started the conver
sations several years ago when some stu
dents approached him after class to ask if
they could continue their discussions.
Geer couldn't do it right then so he
told the group to meet under the Davie
Poplar that afternoon. After that he con
tined his little open symposiums.
He stopped last fall because of bad wea
ther and has now started them again.
Geer, a resident of the University com
munity for the past 30 years, since it was
a relatively small school,' doesn't think the
University should stop growing.
"Our universities and colleges can no
longer be small if they are public," he
comments.
"There is no point at which you can
say our educational institution can't grow.
, This is particularly true in a highly indus
trial society. The citizen must understand
the world he lives in" to make intelligent
decisions, Geer said. .
He doesn't think that the University's
growth should be restricted, but that it
should be evolutionary so that rapid growth
doesn't "overburden our facilities, impose
on our faculties and shortchange our stu
dents.'1 He pointed out that the University is a
service institution which "must grow as
quickly and as reasonably as it can to serve
the state." "
"This means that larger dorms and large
classes are a necessity."
The impersonality that accompanies that
growth "is a problem that can't be fully
solved," he thinks.
However, he adds, "we can wipe out
much of the impersonality that is inher
ent in the system" if both faculty and stu
dents contribute to its elimination.
Hundreds of faculty members work on
this all the time by inviting students into
their homes, making themselves available
in their offices, or chatting with students
on campus, he said.
Geer considers "the faculty at Chapel
Hill, on the whole, probably more avail
able to the student for counseling than any
other university of this size."
Geer, now Director of Student Aid, add
ed that "we can't keep Chapel Hill small
but we can be friendly and interested in
our students, so that their intellectual
growth can take on new dimensions and
so that their pursuit of learning can be in
dividualized and encouraged."
