In spile of Travis' reasons for withholding the reasons for the dismissal Carol Stein said she would be glad to have the reasons made public.

She has already assumed the duties, but must be confirmed by Student Legislature. we Wan Keep By DONNA REIFSNIDER of The Daily Tar Heel Staff At ten til eleven Tuesday morning, several masked figures in black walked niatter-ofJfactly out of the Y ibudlding into rainy Y Court. "What the. . who are they" rippled surprisedly through the usual crowd of Y-court lingerers. Curious, students followed the weird troupe out the door. Four of the black robed figures wore grotesque skull masks, each of them playing a musical instrument. The big drum had "The Puppeteers" painted -across it. One fellow was dressed in military gear. A girl also in black, wore a slate grey mask that looked as if it had been molded on an old woman's face. The figures arranged themselves in the. drizzling rain and began to play a strange, funeral siounding tune. One of the skull-masked figures spoke. "A man says mother " The masked girl and the boy in military gear slowly entwined arms. The skul face continued. 'There is.; MM (E!r Dally ear Qrrl World News BRIEFS By United Press International , Ike, Truman Endorse War Policy WASHINGTON A blue-ribbon committee of former high government officials and other prominent Americans, including former Presidents Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower, Wednesday strongly endorsed U.S. involvement in Vietnam. Spokesmen for1 the new group emphasized it was not a part of the Johnson administration's counter-attack on its war critics. : But the committee issued a policy statement that, clearly sup ported the government's current war policies. "American cannot afford to let naked aggression or the sup pression of freedom go unchallenged. . .and we strongly support our commitment in Vietnam and the policy of noncomprtxmising, although limited, resistance to aggression. a war in a faraway country. It is a very dangerous country. The man needs a gas mask." At this. moment he handed the soldier a gas mask. "It is a very dangerous country. The man needs a gun," He handed the boy a gun. The soldier began to march. "The man is walking and he is shot in the arm. He got a medal." The skull figure took an iron cross from the pouch at his side and placed it around the soldier's neck. The crowd began to snicker. "The man comes to a village. This -is the- village." The girl changed masks, changing the mother mask for the dead whdSte face of a Viet namese woman. 'The man takes his airplane and goes looking for his enemy." The other skull masked figures -droned like a plane, harmoniz ing in chorus. "The village as afraid. The people go into the fields to gather their crops. Here are their crops." The skull figure handed the woman an ear of corn. "The man poisons their crops." The soldier spread a black sheet over the ear of corn on the ground. " . Standing in the pouring rain, the crowd was very quiet as the strange play progressed. "The children are afraid. He bombs the children," said the skull face. "The children die." Slowly the black-robed, Vietnamese-faced figure placed a life-like doll carefully on the ground. The woman held up a pair of scissors. "These are scissors. The woman.takes the scissors," and the skull face took the woman's hand holding the scissors, "and death leads her hand". . .and stabbed the soldier. At this point the girl puts on her mother face. The man is dead at her feet "The woman gets a letter." She held up a sign that said, "We regret to inform you. . .The skull figures placed a white sheet over the faHem form and then pick him up and carried him away. For a moment the crowd stood silently and then broke into applause. "Alright!" The (Election Reform Committee of Student Legislature will hold an open meeting today at 3:30 p.m. in Roland Parker II inGM. The committee, chaired by Dong McKeown, SP from MD I, will in vestigate seven proposals to ci-.ange the elections law. It will also consider the possibilities of using IBM computers for voting and vote tabulation.

Itaught how to drink alcoholic -beverages," said Dr. John Ew ing, ipsychSflitry chief : a ti Memorial Hospital Wednesday, during the ; second panel: discussion on "Drugs in Oun Society." . , .. "Evidence is overwhelming that drinking tends get out of hand when it is something that: is banned,", he continued.: "Drinking is part of a way of : life.". : Ewing cited a study made 10 years ago of 17,000 college and university students across, the country. .;. t "In colleges and universities where dunking was peinnitted, there was indeed more drink ing but it was more moderate. On campuses where drinking was banned, less actual drink ing was discovered, but it was on a much less moderate level. , "As one interviewed student put it, 'If you have to drive 50 miles for a drink, you wont have just one,' " Ewing said. The panel discussion on "Depressant Drugs and Alcohol"., followed short talks by Ewing and Dr. Fred Ellis of ; the Pharmacology Department of the School of Medicine. I The addict, who first uses, the drugs or alcohol to escape, becomes physdcaUy dependent as rain ceUs become h-adapted or adjusted to habitual or repeated use," Dr. Ellis said. - - . I Many drug deaths are caus ed by a combination of alcohol and tranquilizers or - barbiturates, he said. " "One ounce of whiskey in a 150-pound person puts the level of alcohol in his blood at .025 per cent," Ellas said. "With continued (hinMfig, when the level rises to .1 per cent, the person is legally drunk under North Carolina state law." , ' "Alcohol at a .5 per cent . level in your blood is lethal," v he said. By DONNA REIFSNIDER of The Daily Tar Heel Staff The prospect of a new high rise women's residence isn't progress to the girls of the Nurses' Dorm. They don't like the idea. In a poll taken recently, 296 girls out of the 300 residents said they preferred to stay where they are. The possibility that a new. dorm might be built was an nounced this fall when the girls met for hall meetings. Dean of Women Katherine Carmichael has, in the past few months, asked several nursing students to accompany , her to look ; at women's" residences on" sur rounding campuses. Whether or not the dorm will be built in the very near future has not been decided. A ten tative schedule would see the new building finished b y 1969. Why the concern for Nurses' Dorm? If the University builds the new building, North Carolina Memorial Hospital has requested that Nurses be used for expansion of hospital facilities. The girls complain that the - proposed eight story residence will not engender the same spirit of unity and closeness the girls now enjoy in the smaller Nurses' Dorm. TocUty Last Clumca For Yack Pictures Today is tne last day' that late graduate and undergrad students can possibly have their Yack portraits taken. A $2.00 late fee will be charged for all but retakes of defective pictures. The hours are noon to 6:30 p.m. in the basement of GM. "Besides," said one student, "Nurses' is a tradition. It isn't that we don't want to mix with the other girls on campus, but there is a certain closeness you just don't get in a huge residence' Nurses' Dorm, which lies ad jacent to NC Memorial Hospital, was built with the thought it might one day be us-' ed for the rapidly expanding medical center. "We aren't pushing the girls out," said hospital assistant director Ronald H. Hutton. "The recommendation for the new dorm must come from the Dean of Women. But you can understand why we would be anxious , to have the Nurses' facility." The girls know they cannot prevent eventual takeover, but they hope to forestall the mat ter as long as possible. ."For the funds now available for the new structure just can't be nice as the one we have now," says dorm president Judy Wilson. There has been talk that in the next few years another coed residence, similar to the Granville structure, may be built. "If we have to move, we'd rather hold out for something like that," said Judy. Realizing they may be in for a fruitless fight, the girls are organizing their forces to make . their plea. UNC Prof Gets Teaching Honor A UNC political science pro fessor was one, of nine pro fessors from across the coun try to win a $3,000 Danforth Foundation Award for ex cellence in teaching.

Dawson . . . wins Danforth Award Mut Carey :0iiAfld0 By DON CAMPBELL of The Daily Tar Heel Staff Actually, it was a bargain if you didn't mind paying 98 cents for a beer. They threw in the new novel, "A Blaze of Passion" for free. It was all happening at Jeff's Wednesday afternoon. An Autographing party. Author Miles Eric Ludwig, alias J. X. Williams (you don't see many X's anymore) was autographing his book, hailed as "A major American pornographic novel." Predictably, the crowds flocked to Jeff 's. "Get your book and a free beer," the man behind the counter shouted. "Then get Mr. Ludwig to autograph it." So they did. The got their book and beer and Mr. Ludwig, pornographed the pornography. (We didn't think that up, we heard it). And then they stood around and drank their beer and talked about the problems of making it big as a writer. Some people looked at old Playboys. One fellow was reading Sports Illustrated. The beer was good. Now, about the book: The cover is a little hard to describe, so skip it. The plot is relatively comprehensible. Carey, who is a girl, is the center of attraction. She works at the Sum mers Studio of Photography. Until the book was writ ten, she worked as a receptionist. Now she works behind the white walled reception room. Guess what she does. She poses for stag film movies. She has "friends" at the Summers' Studio of Photography. Laura, Rosalie and Grant are her friends. Half the time they make love to her. The other half of the time they beat the hell out of her. They are not only lovers they are sadists. . .and masochists. ' In the first chapter, Carey is seduced by a television set. In the remainder of the chapters she is seduced by everyone who walks. In the stag films and at home, Carey just can't get away from the sex perverts. Carey doesn't want to get away from the sex perverts. Now we'll skip a few chapters. , At me end of me book mere is a climax you wouldn't expect - But Carey can't help it. Sexy Carey. y,4 m i - n I f " f f - " , - . - -..
