Number 130 CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROIJNA, THURSDAY, MARCH 21, 1968 Founded February 23, 1S33 Meal Ticket Sales Must Be Increased to avoid higher food Want prices? Meal tickets offered by the University Food Services are designed to help you do just that. Hie tickets, offered in books of $5 and $10, yield a discount of ten per cent. The $5 book sells for $4.50 and the $10 book goes for $9. The tickets "may be the answer to the problem of meeting rising food costs," said George Prillaman, Direc tor of the food services. "The USDA estimates raw food costs will rise five per cent during 1968. We must in crease our volume if we are to keep food costs down," he said. The volume in our cafeterias must increase at least ten per cent if the ticket program is to help us," said Prillaman. Prillaman said that sales of the meal tickets have been picking up lately, but have not yet reached the point that had been expected. He expects to extend the ticket program to include all edibles. At present the policy excludes candy and cigarettes from ticket purchases. I "A student should be able to use the tickets for anything he wants to eat," Prillaman said. "Our goal has always been to serve quality food in a pleasant atmosphere at the most reasonable price in the area," said Prillaman. We hope the new food ticket pro gram will help us to continue doing this," he added. Tickets are on sale at the Lenoir Hall Cigar shop and of fice, the Pine Room and Chase Cafeteria. They are non-expiring and may be used at Lenoir, Chase, the Pine Room and Monogram Coub. , V " v J" ' - ' r , -s-3 v6 . r" ' h . . - t . . 1 : WRC Ai Closing our 'CDBFCDY iL DTH 6ta Photo by STEVE ADAM Carolina Lacrosse bench sits dejected ... in yesterday's loss at Fetzer Field. SL Judicial Committee Abtdt JL JL oves 2 Co urt Bills By RICK GRAY of The Daily Tar Heel Staff The Judicial Committee of Student Legislature approved two bills on the Honor Courts Wednesday. The first bill calls for a con stitutional amendment t o establish graduate and coed courts. The other re-states, clarifies and changes the penalties of men's and mm Iljf DaiU Sar i?rrl World News BRIEFS By Unifd Press International women's courts. Both bills passed without op position. The resolution calling for the constitutional amendment, ac cording to Men's Attorney General Randy Myer who testified for the bill, was asked for because of "the different philosophy of the Men's and Women's court." Myer continued that he did not mean that qne. court was more severe than the other," but that drinking, for example, might be regarded differently by the two courts. In behalf of the graduate court proposal, Myer said that there are "fifty-one ' graduate departments without their own courts." The bill provides for "the judicial power of the Student Body . . . (to) be vested in one Supreme Court of the Student Body and the inferior courts. The inferior courts shall be an Honor Court, a Men's court, a Women's Court, a Law School Court, a Medical School Court, a Dental School Court, a Graduate Court, a Men's Residence Council Court, an Ipterfraternity Council Court, a Panehllenic Court and the various women's House Council's." The bill also provides for the enactment of legislation by the Student Legislature concerning the election of student representaives toFaculty Administr ation judicial bodies.

Under the new ruling all women except first semester freshmen will be allowed to stay out until 1 a.m. Sundays through Thursdays and 2 a.m. Fridays. First semester freshmen will be allowed to stay out until 12:00 midnight Sundays through Thursdays and 1 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. They will also be allowed the three late permissions they now have. Under the present rule first semester freshmen are allowed to stay out until 11 p.m. Mon days through Thursdays, until 12:00 midnight Fridays and Sundays and 1 a.m. Saturdays. . All other coeds may stay out until 12:00 midnight Sundays through Thursdays and until 1 " a.m. Fridays and Saturdays. ; Seniors are allowed to sign out until 2 a.m. on the weekends. Freshmen will be required to sign out if they plan to stay out after 11 p.m. They will not be required to sign out if they wish to stay out after 8 p.m. as they do under1 the present rules. , No more campus-wide late permission will be given by the Office of the Dean of Women except for "extenuating circumstances." WRC also voted to extend a campus-wide late permission Friday until 2 a.m. They also voted tentatively to extend closing hours Saturday until 2 a.m. depending on the basket ball schedule. A ruling was passed to allow parental permission for coeds traveling after UNC. closing hours to include regular weekends and overnights. The present permission only covers vacations. The permission will also be incorporated in one parental permission form rather than the two forms used now. A motion was defeated to have women's dorms close at 11:00 the first Monday of each month for house meetings. The WRC also changed the Rule Book so it will include a separate section for penalties. They will be grouped together and will no longer be scattered throughout the book. New penalties such as those connected with the new women's apartment rule will also be included in the sec tion. The final copy of the new rule book will be presented to the Dean of Women Friday for approval. AG Candidates May Debate Lenoir Cafeteria Here April 9 To Be Remodelled Lenoir Hall will soon have a new look inside. , The cafeteria will close on May 31 according to George Prillaman, director of food services, "We should be able to start the remodeling in eary June and should be open again in mid-September," he said. The program calls for a total renovation of the kitchen and dining rooms. Color will be stressed in the (uning room decor. "The new cafeteria lines will have a canopy and hanging lights over them," Prillaman said. A waist-high divider will separate the lines from the dining area. The walls will be covered with fabric. The ceiling will re main the same height but will have new lighting fixtures. The dining room furniture is to be . refinished in a colorful man ner. "The new improvements on Lenoir will cost $276,000," Prillaman said. "The money for the remodeling is part of our past profits since 1951. There will be no increase in food prices to pay for the im provements." The project was originally started three or four years ago, but the University has had trouble getting the plans drawn. The architect for the project, G. Melton Small, designed Chase. "Lenoir's dosing will not af fect business too much," Prillaman said. "Our business is about half in the summer. Chase and the Pine Room should handle the overflow without any trouble." LB J Win Warns Federal System Almost Outdated The Carolina Forum will hold a debate between the two candidates for Attorney General of North Carolina on the topic "Resolved: That the Attorney General of North Carolina should take an active role in state affairs." Senator Robert Morgan, who is opposing incumbent At torney General Wade Burton, has accepted the forum's in vitation to debate the issue on April 9, at 8 p.m. in Memorial Hall. Champ Mitchell, chairman of the committee for the debate, said that the topic was chosen because the attorney generalship is an important of fice which receives little at tention. "North Carolina has one of the highest rates of bank rob beries and murders," said Mit chell. "The office of attorney is becoming more and more im portant. He is the people's representative." Mitchell said the committee chose to nave a debate because it allows the best presentation of the issues. Two Coeds Receive VHC LB J Asks For Export Increase WASHINGTON President Johnson, repeating his call for a tax increase, asked Congress Wednesday to earmark $500 million to help increase U.S. exports and strengthen the U.S. dollar. The President's request to the House and Senate came as Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield promised that Johnson would "cooperate" with Congress in cutting spending as its price for approving his requested 10 per cent income tax surcharge. Johnson asked that Congress allocate $500 million of the Export-Import bank's existing $13.5 billion authority as a special fund to help finance a board program for selling U.S. goods overseas. Election Battles Hoped By Hanoi LONDON Reliable Communist sources said Tuesday North Jg PllSflCcl Vietnam apparently is banking on political battling in the presidential campaign to intensify anti-Vietnam war sentiment in the United States and has ruled out any peace talks in the near future. East European diplomatic sources with known contacts in Hanoi said the hardliners in the. regime of President Ho Chi Minn, who have recently influenced policy decisions, are now in undisputed control and reportedly more self-assured than ever. The sources indicated the North Vietnamese feel they can lose nothing by holding out. Phone Petitions By Ehringhaus By WAYNE HURDER of The Daily Tar Heel Staff "History will repeat itself, the incumbent U.S. president will be re-elected," former North Carolina governor Terry Sanford predicted here Tues day night in the crowded Senate chambers of the Dialectic-Philanthropic Societies. The candidacies of McCarthy and Robert Kennedy will have the effect of winging President Lyndon Johnson more toward the views of McCarthy, but he will still get renominated, and re-elected, Sanford said in a question and answer period. "I think Kennedy and McCarthy will make a good showing and then come out for the ticket," after Johnson wins the nomination, he said. On the Republican side San ford said the McCarthy and Kennedy candidacies would enhance Nixon's chances of getting the nomination, even though he is the weaker of the three main Republican can didates for the nomination. Sanford, who was made an honorary member of the Di Phi Tuesday, called the stu dent participation in the New Hampshire primary "one of the most dramatic and en couraging things in recent American political history." Sanford, answering ques tions, said "getting into Viet nam was probably one of the most serious mistakes of our history," but warned that "we can't just turn and walk away. That has implications far Shoup Offers Peace Proposal WASHINGTON Retired Gen. David M. Shoup, the former commandant of U.S. Marines, Wednesday offered a peace pro posal to end a Vietnam War which he said was not worth "one one-thousandth" of what it would cost to win. . Shoup's plan offered in testimonies before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, involved two pledges one by the United States and South Vietnam to halt all offensive operations "the minute the gavel falls" at the start of peace negotiations, and the second by the United States to begin a withdrawal as soon as it became clear the North Vietnamese were negotiating in good faith and with a chance for success. De Gaulle Calls For Gold Standard PARIS President Charles de Gaulle said Wednesday that ef forts to safeguard the U.S. dollar and British pound as the world's key currencies were doomed. He demanded they be replaced by a full gold standard as the cornerstone of world trade. De Gaulle, in one of his strongest warnings yet, said a con tinued monetary system based on the American and British cur rencies would plunge the world into a grave economic crisis. Despite the French leader's statement, the dollar and pound ;. surged to newstrength on jeuropean markets and the price of gold continued to drop in free market trading. But financial experts said the full repercussion of De Gaulle's new broadside would not be felt on markets until Thursday. They voiced fears it might touch off a new stampede to unload dollars and pounds and grab up gold in markets still jittery after last week's international gold and dollar crisis. . Petitions asking for in dividual room phones to be in stalled in Ehringhaus Dormitory are being pushed by dormitory senators in the next few days. According to Bill Courtney, Lieutenant-Governor of Ehr inghaus, 250 to 350 residents have signed the petitions this past week. However, dorm of ficials want at least 400 signatures to achieve a better majority. The phone petitions have not been emphasized as much as they should be, Courtney feels, because of dormitory elections to be held today. After the business of elections is finish ed, the Ehringhaus senators will concentrate mainly on winding up the petitions, he said. The purpose of the petitions is to find out if the extra cost involved ($9.00 per semester) 'will decrease the interest in the individual room phones. Currently, each group of 120 residents share two telephones., Courtney pointed out that room telephones can be in stalled easily, because all of the new high-rise dorms are equipped with the initial facil ities. Russ Perry, supervisor of buildings and grounds stated, "The University Physical Plant is certainly in favor of the room phones. Com munication is a real problem in the high-rise dormitories." Rocky ToT-Affirm Candidacy Today NEW YORK (UPD Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller will an nounce his candidacy to the GOP presidential nomination Thursday to provide R e p u b 1 i cans with an alternative to the Vietnam War stand taken by Richard M. Nixon. The 59-year-old governor, who had long claimed to have given up White House am bitions, will announce his "im mediate and future political plans" at 2 p.m. (EST) news conference at the New York Hilton Hotel Rockefeller is expected to announce that he will allow his name to go on the ballot for the May 28 Oregon primary, although he will skip the May 14 Nebraska primary because that state is "Nixon country." Even if his name is" on the ballot in Nebraska, he will not campaign there. Rockefeller versus Nixon recalled their last con frontation at the 19 6 0 Republican National Con vention when Nixon bumped Rockefeller in the race for the presidential nomination. Domestic and international issues were not so clear cut and emotionally involved then, and Rockefeller lacked the en dorsement of former President Eisenhower. The New York governor believes he has a better chance against Nixon now because of the former vice president's position on measures to be taken in meeting civil disorders and for a military victory in Vietnam, according to aides. Rockefeller will take a stand for "accommodation" both at home and abroad. Accommodation in Vietnam might mean a general agree ment by the nations involved m the area to neutralization of a tier of focal Southeast Asian countries. Rockefeller believes Russia would back this sort of settlement because it would help contain the geopolitical ambitions of expansionist Red China, it was reported. Whatever misgivings he had last year, Rockefeller has shown real enthusiasm of late for the coming political battle which he enters running second to Nixon in polls among Republicans. Polls of voters from both parties have often shown him more popular than Nixon or President Johnson, reflecting support from liberal Democrats and independents. beyond the advantages of it." Sanford, in his speech on "The Future of North Carolina Politics," warned that "the federal system is almost out dated" because the balance between the states and the U.S. government is slipping in favor of the central govern ment. "More and more mayors, state legislators, and governors are looking to the federal government to solve their problems, Sanford said. These officials have decided that it is easier to get things from the federal government than from their local governments, he said. The two main blows to the states came as a result of the adoption of the U.S. Constitu tion and the Depression of the 1930's, Sanford explained. The Constitution took away from the states many of the rights they formerly enjoyed, Sanford explained. During the depression the states weren't able to cope with the economic problems and turned to the federal government to do so, Sanford said. (cont. on page 6) This has led to encroachment by the federal government into areas more easily and ef fectively controlled by the state, according to Sanford. The New Deal was able to shore up the crumbling economy, Sanford, said, but the New Deal failed in its ultimate aim of doing away with suffering and unemploy ment, he said. "We've lost sight of the fact that we shouldn't be concerned with programs, but with peo ple," Sanford said. Sanford said that during his term in office he had tried to fight the "program" approach and to replace it with the "people" approach. The States are important because they could stir action and initiate new programs, Sanford explained. States should strengthen themselves in four ways, he said. . One, improve the quality of state government personnel. Two, reform state con stitutions in some of the states; Three, find new sources of revenue; Four, adopt the "people" ap proach to state government in stead of the "program" ap proach. The federal government should "give us the general goal and let the states develop the plan to suit their own situa tion," he explained. "We can't take the national government out of govern ment," he said in tne Question and answer period. "We're not about to. We want to use the national .go ve mm en t to strengthen the state govern ment." Zeroing in on North Carolina's problems, he said that innovation in the field of education is one of the main needs of the state.
