they ran their lead to 49-36.

center, took charge with the
score 43-38 by making nine
straight points and bringing

The group barely missed the

that tickets for the 11:30 show
would not go on sale until 11.

boisterous German Shepherd
caged in the back.
The dog, of course, began
barking at the carolers, and

he was causing more noise

Student Party President
Robert ' M. Travis bade
farewell to the party which he
embraced for all of his four
years at the University.
Travis thanked the party for
what they had done for him
and explained to his opponents
some of his actions during his
term as president.
He began: "I will be brief,
perhaps for the first time in
my lifethere are others whom
you want to hear."
The candidates for the
nomination looked up from
their papers briefly, looked
hack down, made a correction
and continued to repeat their
own speeches to themselves.
Travis continued: "You gave
me a chance to associate with
the leaders of thought and the
leaders of men. . . to learn
and to grow mentally. . . You
gave me happiness which I had
not known. You made me a
somebody instead of a
nobody."
And the delegates were hud
dled in pairs gesturing
earnestly to make a point, and
gazing around the entirity of
Memorial Hall, mentally coun
ting the votes.
The President talked on,
unshaken by the activity
around him: "Some have
criticized me for not involving
my name and title and the
name of this University in
more issues. ..I refused
many and I fought for some."
The activity on the floor
continued, becoming more in
tense as the hour for the final
confrontation drew nearer.
Delegates were recounted and
then recounted again.
.Travis remained unmoved:
"The only thing I had was my
name and my title. It must
never be prostituted for those
issues which will hurt this
University. This office and its
title must never be given free
ly, it must be guarded jealous
ly and used only for this
university's greatest good."
Still the politicking con
tinued, not able to stop to
listen to a former friend on the
way out.
"In a few short weeks it will
no longer be Mr. President but
just Mr. Travis. To this
University I offer my lifeblood.
It has given me new and
deeper inspiration, a better
mind, a stronger faith and,
most importantly of all, I have
learned how helpless we all are
without each other. Thank you,
Goodbye and Godspeed."
And with that he left the
stage for the last time as lead
er of the Student Party and left
the decision of succession to the
people with whom he had spent
most of his life in the University.
Richter Criticizes
Bietz's Performance
By TERRY GINGRAS
of The Daily Tar Heel Staff
University Party Floor
Leader Larry Richter leveled
charges of ''gross in
competence" against Student
Body Vice President Jed
Dietz. "
Richter entered The Daily
Tar Heel offices yesterday to
make these accusations.
"The legislature has often
been retarded in the
performance of its proper
functions by the simple fact
that Mr. Dietz didn't run the
body with a strong
authoritarian hand," said
Richter.
"And he displayed in
adequacies in his very ability
to fulfill the duties of the posi
tion." Richter further expressed
the "sincere hope that should
by chance Mr. Dietz be elected
President of the student Body,
he w ould do a better job than
he's done as Speaker."
Dietz, as Vice President of
the student body, also serves
as Speaker for student
legislature.
Richter also said in his
personal opinion that the
University Party was better
off running against a
"Northern, liberal, Black
Power Advocate than a more
moderate candidate."
"I think the campus will tend
to reject liberal candidates,"
said Richter.
Richter said his opinion that
Dietz was a Black Power ad
vocate came mainly from
Dietz affirmative vote at the
National Student Association
conference.
Dietz voted in favor of a
resolution calling for Negroes
to get their rights "by
whatever means possible."
Dietz called Richter 's
charges "politics."
"I think any criticism at this
time of year, especially from
the floor leader of the UP must
be taken with a grain of salt,"
said Dietz.
"Larry has tried to say these
things all year," said Dietz. "I
