"I believe the war is im moral and illegal and the draft policy is illegal," he said. .He sees the draft as a government attempt to direct students into the position the administration wants them to support. . Tht 21-year-old sociology major said he has a C average, which is good enough for a stu dent deferment, so doesn't understand why he ' was reclassified 1-A. He thinks the reclassification may have been a mistake or is perhaps the draft board's response to his anti-war activities.

The Democratic candidate, who termed himself a financial conservative, said the package would cost $187 million which he said would come from existing surpluses and revenue in creases. "Conservatively, our revenues in 1969-71 should exceed the present biennium estimates by 20 per cent. Together with a credit balance of $103 million, we would have approximately $210 million for the salary increases Ihave outlined," Broughton told reporters at a news conference here Wednesday. Laotian Troops Driven From Plateau VIENTIANE, Laos Communist forces used bamboo ladders to scale the steep sides of a tabletop plateau in norhern Laos and -drove government defenders from the key fortress of Tha Ty overlooking Communist supply routes from North Vietnam, it was reported Wednesday.

A hearing was set for Wednesday for two men captured in a wild bank robber chase stretching from North Carolina oyer the rugged mountains of North Georgia. A posse, heavily armed and trailing a pack of howling bloodhounds, caught one of the suspects, Herman Houston Hackney, 29, of Dalton, in the brush near Blairsville about 11 p.m. Tuesday. Officers said they had chased Hackney for two hours at breakneck speed around the hairpin curves of the Blue Ridge Mountains before he wrecked his stolen car and left it burning to take his chances in the sweetgum and pine forestland.

N By TERRY GINGRAS of The Daily Tar Heel Staff "The Paraguayan student definitely has more power than he American student." This is the opinion of Gustavo Vargas, president of the Paraguayan National Union of Students and one of seven Paraguayan student leaders visiting UNC this week at the invitation of the State Department. "Paraguayan students have more power v because the University in Paraguay, as in any underdeveloped country, is an important pressure group," said Vargas. "We only have the Church, the army and the government as pressure sources. In the U.S. you have many more pressure groups so the power of the University is diminished."

Hawkins received 565 votes to 489 for Scott and 262 for Broughton. Former Governor Terry Sanford received three write-in votes.

"The minute a student ar- rives at the University, he is automatically put into one of the student centers (roughly analogous to a student govern ment). All student power com es from the organization of these centers." Vargas saidtberearefiye student centers at the National University, one of two universities in Paraeuav. The other university is the Catholic University. "We cet 70 Der cent at- tendance at all balloting and other functions of the center. I doubt you could get that amount of participation in the U.S." Vargas said American Universities are centers of He said that if the McCarthy followers go over to the Republican side a defeat is im minent for Johnson. On Robert Kennedy, junior Senator from New York, Dr. Lipsitz said, "Kennedy in the race as a third party or in dependent candidate would whip Johnson." The "extremely poor" show ing of New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller in the voting, he continued means "if Rockefeller doesn't get. in the primaries quick, he's finish ed." . Dr. Scott looked upon the primary results as "a referen dum on the war in Vietnam." He' said, "The results represent a strong criticism of the aclministration's war policy." "The president will probably spend long hours pondering the results," he continued. Many national observers thought that the results would cause a cnange m tne Johnson political strategy, but Dr. Scctt says,, "He is locked in and doesn't have much freedom of movement. But this (the great turn out for McCarthy) and the Fenate hearings on the war will give him some second thoughts." On the subject of Kennedy, ne added, "Kennedy is wishing he was in the race. The ques tion in his mind is 'can he get the nomination.' If he feels that there is a chance, he may run." As Dr. Scott said, Kennedy stated late Wednesday af- terhoon "I am reassessing the possibility of whether I will run . against President Johnson. A Kennedy announcement of rnnf1,riaov Spnt RJ)iH candidacy, Dr. Scott said, "will affect Johnson's control of the party and weaken his posi tion." He further predicted, "There is going to be a fight for the iiemocratie nomination. The New Hampshire results are not peculiar to New Hampshire alone. They will translate themselves into a convention fight." On Rockefeller Dr. , Scott said, "He has got to have one -gooa, powenui snowing 10 pru- a . i . . ye iat he can get votes, and ne Oregon primary looks like his best bet.

Students and pro-r lessors are not concerned ex- chisivelv with classes and studies, they are more con cerned with other things." According to Vargas, periodic seminars are set up to discuss national problems with a professor in attendance at all times. Vargas said professors can speak freely because the university is autonomous even though the government pro vides all funds. "The government provides all funds at the beginning of the year," said Vargas. "The university can spend these funds however they want to. U cLfiecaiMecii By WAYNE HURDER of The Daily Tar Heel Staff Student Legislature Tuesday night set April 2 as the date for the spring" elections. The legislature, almost unanimously, changed the date proposed m the bill from March 26 to April 2 on the r e c o m m endation of the chairman of the Elections Board, Norm Zettel. -He had originally recom mended March 26 but changed that to April 2 because he said ne couian't validate the can didates since quality point averages won't be computed by tiie office of records until March 21. This would be too late for him to be able to print up ballots for an election on March 26. Dave Kiel, SP from MD I, and Pete Powell, SP from MD VII, objected to the change WRC Decides For Stricter Quiet Hours Quiet hours will be strictly enforced in all women's . residences under a new rule passed by the Women's Residence Council Tuesday night. Quiet hours will be from 7:30 p.m. until 10:00 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and from 11:00 p.m. until 10:00 a.m. Fri day and Saturday. During ex ams they will be continuous. According to Cotting White, Recording Secretary of WRC, it is the responsibility of every girl to enforce the rule. " " . i Any girl may give a calldown to anyone not observing the quiet hours. Three calldowns result in a Friday night's cam pusment. Means of enforcing the rule is left to the discretion of in dividual residence ad ministrations. WRC discourages loud record players and radios and congregating m the halls. Orientation counselors of in coming women will be asked to emphasis the importance of quiet hours. Health Dept.

He is chairman of the Department of Health Educa tion at the School of Public Health here. Members of the Council are selected from leaders in higher education, the general public and health or health-related fields. The Council's major purpose is to advise the U.S. Surgeon General on matters related to the Allied Health Professions Personnel Training Act of 1966. This responsibility includes the review of applications for alied health professions research and for construction and training project grants. the government tries to decrease these funds, the' University will have to cut back admissions and the peo-. pie will react. With such a move the government would be cutting its own throat." Vargas divided the issues concerning Paraguayans into student welfare, University af- . fairs and national affairs. According to Vargas, student centers get 95 per cent student , support for all matters in volving student welfare, 70 per cent support on University af fairs and 60 per cent in na tional affairs. "The adjiiinistration will not ignore us when we have 70 per cent or so of the students sup porting us," said Vargas. He also reports that he gets almost unanimous support from students in all matters involving international af- because it would make the elections fall during the week of the Carolina Symposium, which lasts from March 31 to April 3. Taylor Branch, chairman of the Symposium, said that when he heard that the date was to be April 2 and he was bergasted" and called "flab it a "real tragedy" to have the two things fall at the same time. Zettel explained in a letter to legislature that the records of- fice wouldn't be able to get the averages figured out because of a computer changeover. Election laws require all candidates to have a 2.0 average and he has to check that each candidate has this before putting their name on the ballot, he said. Besides arguing that it would not be possible to hold the elec tion on March 26, some argued that even if they could, it wouldn't be long enough for the students to become informed about the candidates. 'This will give us a larger turnout and a better op portunity to get the leaders the Euwer Plans Run For CWC By LOUISE JENNINGS of The Daily Tar Heel Staff Mary Snowden Euwer, a sophomore from Uppei Marlboro, Maryland, an nounced Wednesday that she will run for Chairman of the Carolina Women's Council to succeed Lloydette Hum- nhrpv . TDne'of-her 'major concerns Miss Euwer said, "is bringing. CWC closer to the dorm women." Miss Euwer said she would be especially interested in con tinuing the Speaker's Bureau and "integrating it into regular dorm life with speaking pro jects earned out m the dorm throughout the year.' The Speaker's Bureau is a new project which was set up in the Office of the Dean of Women. It's purpose is to "bring the University women and the town women closer together and to provide more cultural activities in the dorm," according to Miss Euwer. Miss Euwer would like a system of representation to CWC in wheh representatives from each dorm will have dif ferent responsibilities. "This new set up," she said, "will make the council stronger and more unified by naving a group of represen tatives who will be specifically responsible to CWC, a group who will tie the dorms and CWC together, and a group who will tie the residence col leges and CWC together." Miss Euwer said she would also like to initiate two leadership programs for the new members of CWC instead of the one which the members sponsor 'now. The programs would be held in the fall and in the spring, she said. She is a Dean's List student and has been a member of the Executive Board of her dorm, Para HL fairs. "We've about the made more noise Vietnam war than you have." The student at the National University has limited legal ' power one vote in ad ministrative boards. "This is only the legal limitation on student power," said Vargas. ".We are naturally trying to increase this power but the student has 'more power in reality." "The National university is a free university, the student has no economic responsibilities. We apply pressure on ths ad- ministration through the stu dent newspaper, student strikes and student boycotts of the faculty." Vargas said the biggest con cerns of students at the Na tional University are student power, greater freedom, the students want," Bob Wilson, SP from MD VII, explained. Powell countered that March . 26 would have been time enough since the conventions were held at least three weeks before that date, which usually would be enough time. Branch said he would go before both parties caucuses tonight to ask them to reconsider the passage of the bill. Branch explainted that he thinks the quality point averages :or the candidates can be computed in time without the computer of the of fice of records. Zettel said in his letter that it wouldn't be possible to com pile the averages without devoting more time to it than the board members have, since there are over 150 can didates. The student body president, vice president, The Daily Tar Heel Editor, NSA delegates, student legislators, WRC chairman, and some honor court members wvl be elected in the election.
