WILKINSON DTII Staff Writer "The handling of cases (in- volving the illicit use of drugs on me UNC campus) has not been consistent with what we expected under the terms of the drug policy. Misun derstandings of the policy. . regarding action on the part of the Dean of Men's office have been nothing short of tragic" This was the comment of Student Body President Ken Day on the failure of the drug policy to operate as planned during the time since its Legislature. The policy was passed after negotiation with the ad ministration. It provided for a student-faculty-administration committee which would handle all cases of "illicit and improper" use of drugs by UNC students. The drug policy included a provision requiring the legislature to approve a bill of procedure for the Student F aculty-Admi nistrative Committee before students could be seated on the board. Day said that as such a bill has not yet been presented to the Legislature, the drug policy still lacks official Stu dent Government sanction. Discussions have been held over the past few months in on attempt to draft a bill of procedures. These con ferences involved Day as well as former Student Body Presi- CHOICE '68 Win Goes To McCarthy By LOUISE JENNINGS DTH Staff Writer Senator Eugene McCarthy won CHOrCE-63 With 285,988 first place votes in the national collegiate election.

The bill will be presented to the Legislature at the special session slated for Tues day night. "The bill will be ac companied," he said, "by a cover resolution that will set forth a proposed position for the Legislature to take with respect to the procedure of the Committee." "There are signs of growing discontent with the drug policy among the students," he con tinued. "I expect a thorough sounding of dissenting opinions in the Legislature." "I feel, in addition," he said, "that Student Government is going to have to reassess its position not only with respect to procedure, but also with respect to its official response to drug use on-campus" The proposed bill of pro- cedure will require persons in vestigating alledged offenses to inform accused students "that no information given. . .can be confidential." It also places more emphasis on student participation in the investigation and disposition of all drug cases.

Dr. Lawrence Slifkin of the UNC physics department said Wednesday the County Com missioners approval of the re quest for expansion lacked responsibiliitv. The Board, he argued, had acted on the recommendation of a local health official who had previously signed a peti tion recommending that the park be expanded Slifkin said his criticism was aimed at the Commissioners and not the health official, H.

Hospital Appreciates Blue Blood Project By MARY BURCH DTH Staff Writer Project Blue Blood has been deemed successful by the two par ticipating organizations, Granville Towers and AFROTC, and by Dr. Frances Widmann, head of the blood bank at N.C. Memorial Hospital. Granville Towers began their blood drive in February as their annual service project. AFROTC began their drive last month as a pilot project to see if there would be enough support to carry the project over into next year. Don Streater. chairman of the AFROTC project, said the project nas oeen suxiicienuy successful to persue the pro ject in the fall. "We're a small unit of only about 75 guys," he said. "About a tWrd of the unit nas donated blood along with some support from Angle Flight. WTe were pleased that all of the junior flight class donated a pint each.

By TODD COHEN DTH Staff Writer Anappropriationof 364,908.58 Thursday night was passed favorably out of Stu dent Legislature as the Student Government budget for the 1968-69 fiscal year. The bill was one of the final acts of the 44th Session which, after passage of three final appropriations, adjourned for the last time. Subsequent to adjournment, Speaker of the Legislature Jed Dietz, swore in Charlie Mercer as Vice President of the Stu dent Body. Mercer then swore in the new Legislature. The approved budget, in troduced as a bill by Lacy Reaves, (SP, MD, XI and chairman of the Finance Com mittee, included some radical changes from the original draft. The appropriation for the Carolina Women's Council was cut from the proposed $890 to $130. The consensus of Legislature was that most of the suggested appropriation would be used in the printing of an orientation handbook for women. The University administration it was felt, should be responsible for the printing of the handbook. $2.50, rather than the pro posed $175, was appropriated to the Men's Residence Coun cil. MRC, it was felt, did not convene regularly enough to warrant that amount. On a matter which had elicited heated debate earlier "Next year we will continue project," he said, "but we will not restrict the dona tions to the unit; anyone may give." John Franklin, chairman of the Granville drive, said their drive would be completed next week fulfilling the pledges of 176 pints of blood. "The project was held up by the parntal permission slips which the minor students must return before they can give blood," he said. "We were hoping to have more donors than we did," he added, "but we think the project was successful as a whole." The two organizations have been giving blood over a period of time to suppliment the sup ply needed by the N.C. Memorial Hospital blood bank. Dr. Frances Widmann, head of the blood bank, said, "we are very pleased that the university community wants to help the hospital. We are -grateful to the AFROTC unit and to Granville Towers for their donations and their in terest in continuing the pro ject." Croquet r- . jfjf v "' - - L - x -- - - I 1 ' .

The Carolina Talent Search had originally been funded $640 in its second consideration by Legislature. The bill failed the first vote, 18-16. Another change was the ap propriation for the National Student Association Com mittee. The sum was increased $420 to $3010 following a requesl by Representative Charles Jef fress, NSA co-ordinator for UNC, who said that in view of the fact that this summers national NSA conference will be held in Kansas, traveling expenses for the UNC delegates should b e in creased. The proposed funds, he said, did not allow adequate ex penses. Other appropriations in cluded $15,608.40 for the General Administration ; $14,091.50 for the International Student Center; $1220 for the National Merit Scholarship Committee; $3570 for the Orientation Committee; $114,611.12 for the Daily Tar Heel; $5430 for the Carolina Quarterly; $86,942 for the Yackety-Yack; and others. Following Mercer's in auguration; Dietz called Housing For 500 Needed In March By TOM GOODING DTH Staff Writer Plans for the Poor People's March, part of which will be passing through Chapel Hill, were' discussed Thursday night at Hawkins' Heardqua iters in Carrboro. Today an advanced group of marchers will arrive in Durham. Of the Three hundred expected about half will be staying in Chapel Hill. Howard Lee, CoChairman of Hawkins' campaign for governor, announced that an additional twelve to fifteen hundred marchers will ar rive Thursday. Five hundred of these will require housing in the Chapel Hill area according to Lee. The housing will be required for the night of the 16th only for the main group, and only tonight for the smaller ad vanced group. "Everybody needs a little help sometime, we need all the help we can get," said Lee. Reverend Coats, the Episcopal Chaplain on campus, is working for community and campus support for the march. At the moment he is trying to obtain accomodations, clothing and financial aid for the Poor People's Campaign. "We want not only houses or other places for the people to stay but we also need old clothes for the poor. There should be a booth in Y Court for people who wish to give Although frisbees . may be page 4) .they may be in a croquet fad. These gentlemen seem of life as they enjoy their leisurely game. of the budget "one of the most encouraging things this body has done it a while." He termed some of the cuts in the proposed "politically courageous." In summing up his term as Student Body Vice Presi dent, Dietz said despite "a lot of frustrations, the year has helped me to throw a good deal." He called on the new legislators take advantage of their positions in "making Stu dent Government this year a credible body." "If you fail," he warned "Student Government will never again exist in a mean ingful way." Dietz promised to the Legislature his "whole-hearted support," saying "now I may be able to help in a way I've never helped before." Following passage of the new budget, three other measures were approved. $90 was appropriated for the improvement of the TV room of Graham House. $300 was appropriated as a supplementary budget for the Men's Glee Club. A bill was passed providing alterations in the Curriculum Development Committee budget of 300. clothes," Rev. Coats said. "Any excess clothing will go to real poor counties such as Marks, Mississippi, or other extremely depressed areas of the country." "We will ' " supply the marchers with breakfast, lunch, and dinner on the days they are in town. Also needed is money to pay for transpor tation to Norfolk for the marchers. Twenty-five buses !are needed costing about $5,000," said Rev. Coats. Anybody wishing to con tribute money is asked to call 942-2152 and ask for Rev. Coates. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference began organizing the Poor People's Campaign in the fall of last year. By last December they were recruiting for the march. Statements from the S.C.L.C. testify to the fact that their staff members have been ac tively working in the following places: Chicago,. Geveland, Detroit, Boston, New York, Newark, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Memphis, Tenn One of their primary ob j e c t i v e s was the for mation of a coalition of all poor people in America, in cluding black people, poor w hites, AMexian-Americans, Puerto Ricans, and American Indians. the 'in thing now (see picture danger of being taken over Ih oblivious to the rigors 1
