CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1967 TO O II Conference Ob Residence By STEVE KNOWLTON of The Daily Tar Heel Staff Fifteen . colleges and universities will participate in a conference on residence col leges here. Oct. 13 and 14. "We want to inform the faculty of the residential col lege concept and its virtues," said Dr. Sam Hill, chairman of the Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Residence Colleges, the group responsible for the conference. Only fifteen UNC students will attend the two-day meet as opposed to almost 50 faculty and administrators. "We think the students are already ahead of the faculty on this matter," Hill said. "We need the faculty and administrators to catch up." In addition to the 40 visiting faculty and administrators from seven North Carolina schools and eight-out-of-state ones, one student represen tative from each institution will attend. The host university will be represented by 12 ad ministrators, 25 faculty members, 10 students and the 14-member Chancellor 's Advisory Committee con sisting of five students, six faculty members and three ad ministrators. The group will meet in the Voyager Inn in Durham in stead of the Quail Roost, the usual place for such con ferences, because of the large number attending. "We wanted to have a good representation of colleges and universities in varying stages of development," said Dean of Student Affairs C. O. Cathey, "but we wanted to keep it as small as possible to allow the greatest interplay of discussion." The residence colleges in tended to humanize the learn ing experience have gone about as far as they can without additional informaation from some type of discussion outside the Carolina campus, Hill said. After three years of the con cept, "we've reached the point where we felt we had enough experience to identify relevant Senator Ervin Savs South 6 Whipping Boy9 WASHINGTON Sen. Sam J. Ervin, Jr., D-N. C, Thursday charged the administration with making the South "a whipping boy" in proposing legislation which would give added federal protection to persons engaged in civil rights activities. "It has been politically profitable for some years to make a whipping t.y of the South," Ervin said. "And this is just one more example. ,y Neither Atty. Gen.. Ramsey Clark nor John Dear, head of the civil rights section, agreed with Ervins charge. But neither could immediately provide Ervin with an example of where the proposed law would be used outside the South. Reds Sentence American BUDAPEST, Hungary A Budapest court Thurs day sentenced American student Richard F. Goos to four months in prison for trying to smuggle his East German girl friend across the Hungarian-Yugoslav border. A Hungarian News Agency report said Goos, 23, of Hamilton, Ohio, was convicted by the court on charges of having prepared "an illegal crossing of the Hungarian border." Goos was arrested two months ago. The agensy said he planned to smuggle his girl friend across the border and to the west to marry her. The Budapest court ruled that the two months Goos has already spent in jail should be deducted from his sentence.

He said he wouldn't take any definite stand on the present policy in his talk, but would simply point out his ex periences, "which would lead anyone to question the present policy."

Fuller, who is still connected with the North Carolina Fund in Durham, was suspended from his Office of Economic Opportunity salary following one of these demonstrations during which garbage cans were overturned, some cars stoned and several plate glass store windows smashed.
