By J. D. WILKINSON DTH Staff Writer Dean Stephen K. Bailey of the Maxwell School of1 Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University called on dissident Democrats Thursday to get involved in the 1968 Presidential race by supporting Hubert Humphrey. The call was the subject of a lecture Thursday afternoon in Peabody Hall. Dean Bailey was introduced as "a man in the great tradition of political scientists ... a scholar, practicioner, and administrator . . . (who) has achieved distinction in all of these areas." In his opening remarks, Dr. Bailey referred to the final game of the World Series which had temporarily delayed his lecture. "I have nothing to say in reference to the World Series," he commented, "except that I take comfort in the fact that Detroit was down three games to one at one point." The remark drew applause and laughter from the crowd and set the stage for the lecture and discussion to follow. Bailey Urinals on South campus were turned off at 12:30 p.m. yesterday in an effort to conserve water. Janitors are ' in charge of flushing each urinal twice a day, , according to Walter Hamilton of the University physical plant Approximately 500 urinals, major sources of water consumption, were turned off in Morrison, Hinton James, Craig and Ehringhaus. Hamilton said urinals will be turned off on a campus-wide basis as soon as possible. Water consumption for Wednesday was 2.72 million gallons, according to J.A. Branch of the University business office. The level of University Lake Thursday was 94 inches below the spillway. Chancellor Sitterson denied recent rumors that the University will close. "We have not yet reached the stage where we would even consider shutting down the University," said Sitterson. The rumor circulating that next Saturday's game with Florida would be moved there were denied by acting athletic director Walter Rabb. Sitterson appealed to the faculty and administration to "help in any and every way that you can devise" to conserve water. "Despite the very helpful efforts of the last week," added Sitterson, "our water consumption in the University and the town is still at a level making it absolutely essential, for the health and welfare of the entire community, that we take every possible step ..." Construction on the pipeline is ahead of schedule, according to J.A Branch of the University business office. Crews are working seven days a week to complete the pipe by October 24. Even after October 24, when Chapel Hill will be receiving 2 million gallons a day from Durham, severe restrictions will continue to be asked of Chapel Hill residents and students in the University. Branch urged continued water conservation practices. Drought conditions will not be relieved until Chapel Hill receives 10 inches of rainfall Calls Dean Bailey began with a general plea to the younger generation, asking that they not underestimate" the influence which they have had on Democratic politics this year. He cited President Johnson's decision not to seek re-election, the influence of the younger Democrats in abolishing the unit rule at the Democratic National convention and in the seating of challenge delegations. He said that the latter accomplishment had helped to strengthen Democratic principles. Calling on former McCarthy, Kennedy and McGovern forces to throw their strength behind Vice-President Humphrey, Bailey said, "Dissidents cannot sit out the next few weeks and then come roaring back after the election and seize control of the party." He cited the failure of the liberal wing of the Republican Party to win control in 1968 after refusing to back Barry Goldwater in 1964. - Dr. Bailey outlined the three basic issues of the . " " . ... ' P j r r -;:"'T DTH Staff Photo By Tom Schnabel Water Wastage At Morrison Dorm . . Following Rupture Of Pipeline . ' MoftisoM Dorm Flooded As Water Pipe Breaks By BOBBY NOWELL DTH Staff Writer A ruptured hot water pipe inundated a suite and social lounge on the ninth floor of Morrison Dorm Thursday afternoon and literally caused a waterfall , as water cascaded down the balconies of each floor and flooded the ground-floor lobby. Walter Hamilton of the UNC Physical PlantN said that approximately 100 to 125 gallons of water were wasted before the leak was repaired Plumbers, going about their task of cutting off urinals on the floor, discovered the leak at around one o'clock. The pipe was inside the shower stall in the 901-902 suite. No estimate of damage to lounge furniture was For MMM SuppoH election in the form of questions. "Which candidate," he asked, "on the basis of past acts is most likely to develop a stance amendable to negotiation ... on the war and other foreign policy problems? "Which candidate can adapt a stance from which to properly attack the nation's domestic problems?" "Which party and candidate had asserted the necessity of liberty and justice as prerequisites for law and order?" Dean Bailey called Presidential candidate George Wallace "a racist, bigot, and oppressor of the poor" and his running-mate, Curtis Lemay "a dangerous hawk." He criticized Richard Nixon for "hiding behind the Paris peace talks," for urging postponement of the nuclear proliferation treaty and "a renewal of the arms race," and for "increasing the fears of the nation in a fearful time by choosing for his running-mate a man who would not be qualified to succeed him" if such an eventuality arose. Dr. Bailey said Humphrey immediately available. Hamilton said the apparent cause of the broken pipe was a weakly-soldered joint between the main pipe, which is one inch in diameter, and the line running to the shower spout, a pipe one-half inch in diameter. He explained that the connection had been weakened when expansion joints had to be installed last year. The main water lines from the ground floor to the fifth floor are two inches in diameter, but from the fifth to the tenth they are only one inch in diameter. A technician said there have been minor ruptures in both Morrison and Hinton James in the brief history of the campus' tallest structures, but "this is the biggest, and at the highest level that such has occurred." has been in the forefront of the battle against domestic problems, that he has personally led the fight for a nuclear non-proliferation treaty, and that he has taken a -clear stand on Vietnam, committing himself to ending that war. Commenting on the "law and order" issue, Dr. Bailey said that while some diddident Democrats may be able to wait four years "the people of the Frugality Student Body President Ken Day has asked the student body for extra "frugalness" in conserving water during the current water crisis. . Students have been asked to cut down on the length of showers, to take sponge baths, and to improvise where possible in saving water. Day said, "I think the response to the caH for water conservation has been good, not only from the student body, but from the rest of the Chapel Hill community as welL" r He added that an error in the original planning by the contractor, which did not supply expansion joints above the fifth floors of the two. dorms, was responsible for most of the past trouble. Bus Schedule The revised south campus bus schedule is as follows: -7:20-5:30, buses leave Chase and Wilson Library every five minutes, -12:00-5:30, buses leave for downtown every 10 and 25 minutes after each hour. ghettoes cannot wait four years for the civil justice which has been denied them." He said that Humphrey is the only candidate who has substantial support among both blacks and whites. He called Humphrey and Muskie "men of honor' and described them as "courageous, compassionate . . . men who understand the world around them and have not, like Nixon, clawed their way up the political lad dor." Requested "Students and others have been willing to undergo imposition to comserve water. This has been indicated by the decreasing water usage over the past several days." Spencer Hall coeds and other women students are voluntarily limiting hair-dos. In addition, the Chapel Hill Chamber of Commerce and the Women's Residence Council are running a water-saving contest with awards. These awards are being given to dormitories that use the least amount of water per student
