Putting Up A 'Light Pole Is A Tricky Business

DTH Staff Writer
Lt Gov. Bob Scott
addressing the annual North
Carolina School Board
Members convention here
Thursday morning, promised
"exciting times" in N.C.
educational affairs if he is
elected governor.
The Democratic candidate,
speaking in the confident, even
tones of a man already elected,
spoke before an estimated 500 ;
school officials in Hill Hall.
His Republican opponent
for the governorship, Fourth
District Rep. Jim Gardner,"
cancelled his anticipated
afternoon appearance before
the convention due to traveling
difficulties.
Scott said he is looking
forward to working with Dr.
Craig Phillips, Democratic
candidate for Superintendent
of Public Schools, in reforming
the educational process.
"Dr. Phillips and I will go
into office together with the
same philosophy and
aspirations for our schools,"
Scott said. "I've learned in my
four years as lieutenant
governor that government is
not a one-man show. Thus I
anticipate a good working
arrangement with Dr.
and the various pduratinnal
agencies, I promise full-time
co-operation with, and
accessibility for, all these
co-workers."
Scott outlined a'seven-point
program for improving the
public schools:'
increase teacher salaries to
meet the national average;
provide kindergarten for
pre-schoolers;
more flexibility in school
regulations;

Accuses Nixon Of 'Credibility Gap'
DURHAM (UPI)-George
Wallace, having offered to step
aside so Richard Nixon and
Hubert Humphrey could meet
in a televised debate, twitted
Nixon Tuesday for not taking
him up on the offer.
"Really, Mr. Nixon didn't
mean what he said, which is so
often the case," Wallace
declared.
He accused the GOP
candidate of creating a
"credibility gap" with his
statements regarding debates.
"You've not going to get Mr.
Nixon to debate," Wallace said.

'Law And Order 9
By EVIE STEVENSON
DTH Staff Writer
Students from UNC and
Duke, attending the Wallace
speech in Durham on Thursday
morning, felt the effects of
"unrestrained law and order,"
according to Bob Lock, an
SSOC organizer.
"SS0C members," said
Lock, "who were there to hand
out leaflets and discuss the
issues, were confronted by
security guards who severely
hampered any discussion."
Several students at the
speech said Wallace supporters
sprayed mace, v a chemical
similar to tear gas, into the
crowd of students without
justification.
"There were hecklers within
the groups, but this was not
enough to justify using mace,"
said Arlene Wanderer, a UNC
coed.
The police, according to
Miss Wanderer began to push
the students back to separate
them from the Wallace
supporters. "First they pushed
us back with billy-clubs. We
didn't resist.
"Then they (police) started
swinging their clubs at us. I was
struck across the bridge of my
nose. A boy beside me was hit
on the shoulder."
Howard Lipton, also a
member of SSOC, said the
policemen's blows were not
enough to really hurt the
students. "The trouble was
that this caused the students to
panic.
"The people on the sides
tried to get out of the way, but
they couldn't. When they
thought they were going to be
trapped beside these
policemen, they panicked.
Several girls were knocked
down."

At one point before Wallace
delivered his speech, placard
sticks and signs were thrown in
the crowd by both Wallace
supporters and students.
A UNC law student said he
was threatened by a Wallace
supporter with a raised
three-foot stick in his hand.
"I asked a policeman to
arrest him (the Wallace
supporter), but he replied
indifferently, 'You got a
warrant?'
There were reports that
students , were jabbed in the
back and neck when they were
unable to back away. "The
police were hitting below the
belt in many cases," said Lock.
Lock said he passed out
leaflets among the Wallace
supporters.
"A security agent
approached me and grabbed
one of the leaflets. He read the
first sentence and then said it
was okay.
"I continued handing them
out until three men grabbed
me, jerked away the leaflets,
and pushed me back.
"They told me to 'Get the
hell outa here,' " said Lock.
After the speech, police
formed two lines to push the
students out of the parking lot.
Lipton said, "The students
seemed to get compressed
between the lines. The police
were holding us back on one
side and shoving us with clubs
on the other.
"Later, they realized what
was happening, and one line
dispersed. We were pushed
away from the lot."

Ah enthusiastic crowd of
about 10,000 turned out to
hear Wallace at Durham. They
cheered him wildly when he
spoke out against some schools

added: "We appeal to the soul
of the south help save our

gathered in a parking lot
behind the police station, but
they were too far back in the
crowd to disrupt Wallace's talk.
There was some brief

placard sticks at each other,
but police quickly put down
the disturbance.

designed to combat the high
dropout rate (45 per cent of
those who begin first grade do
not graduate from high
school);
reduce size of classes;
reduce non-classroom
responsibilities of teachers;
lower overall school fees
and eliminate some of the
Phillips more expensive fees altogether.
On the last point, Scott
noted it was not possible to
wipe out all fees by diverting
State funds. "But we must
keep costs down, because the
high prices in such courses as
business education are a
contributing factor to the
number of dropouts," he said.
The lieutenant governor, in
a swipe at Housing, Education
And Welfare (HEW) expressed
opposition to "federal
guidelines" in education. "I
don't think any one agency
should have the power to
hammer us in line," he'
declared. "I am for more
authority and flexibility at the
local level."
Scott said his administration
will be keyed to the future in
education "the quality of the
future depends on the quality
of education today," he
commented.
"What we eventually want
to do is keep most of North
Carolina's home-grown brains
in the State. Right now many
of these most talented young
minds get only a basic
education here and then go
somewhere - else for their
secondary schooling."
Although acknowledging it
was "mighty hard" for a
candidate to stay away from
political discussion with the
election only 12 days off,
Scott restricted his remarks to
education and fired only one
vague verbal missle at Gardner,
without mentioning the
Republican's name.

The formation of a coalition
of former McCarthy, Kennedy,
and Rockefeller student leaders
committed to the election of
the Humphrey-Muskie ticket
was announced by UNC
alumnus Teddy O'Toole in an
open letter to the UNC-G
Carolinian last week.
The movement was
organized by Teddy O'Toole,
former vice-president for
educational affairs for the
National Student Association
(NSA), and Ray Appleton,
former central and southern
regional coordinator for Youth
for Rockefeller.
Organizations have been
formed in thirty-three states
and the District of Columbia,
with contacts in seventeen
other states. There are
presently local coalition groups
formed on about 250
individual campuses according
to O'Toole.
O'Toole cited the following
goals and policies of the
coalition:
First, the group is basically
opposed to the war in Vietnam
and supports the minority
plank.
"For this reason, we
strongly endorse the
Vice-President's latest
statement with regard to the
bombing halt, and we urge him
to go further in that direction.
We call on Richard Nixon to
immediately remove from
television the commercial in
which he shows haggard GI's in
Vietnam, and claims that he
will bring them home. We
demand that Richard Nixon
state a precise position with
regard to issues involved in
Vietnam. The only statement
we have to date is his 1954
statement that 'American boys'
be sent to Southeast Asia.
Secondly, the group is
committed to justice and
equality for blacks and other
minorities.

"Again, Hubert Humphrey from the YMCA building,
has been the sponsor of just where it is usually held, in an
movement was Hubert
Humphrey. One of our most
powerful enemies during that
movement, Senator Strom
Thurmond, is now one of the
strongest supporters of Richard
Nixon. We demand that
Richard
whether
repudiates the support of those
elements which George Wallace
is appearling to. Humphrey has
made his stance on this issue
more than clear."
Thirdly, the coalition is
committed to solving the
economic and social problems
of the cities.
"Our candidate has
established himself as one of
the strongest leaders of this
effort for the past twenty
years."
Fourthly, the group is
committed to establishing
relationships with the Eastern
Europe communist bloc and
Red China based oti
practicality. t
"Humphrey has made clear
his desire for detente with
these powers. If Richard Nixon
is no longer 'Mr. Cold War,'
then we demand that he stand
up and say it."
Fifthly, the group is
committed to the expansion of
l J.
courses to 32; 2) the
institution of a minimum
allowance of eight pass-fail
courses during four years and a
move toward pass-fail courses
in all but the major courses; 3)
allow 48 semester hours in the
major field instead of the limit
now of 30 hours.
A meeting is planned for
next Tuesday, 7:30 p.m., in

IFC Discusses Conference, Membership
By BRYAN CUMMING
DTH Staff Writer
A membership tea for Phi
Mu sorority and an
IFC-Faculty conference were
the main topics discussed at
the third Interfratemity
Council meeting of the year,
October 21.
The IFC meeting, held every
other Monday in 107 Gardner
Hall, hosted the national
secretary of Phi Mu to explain
the plans for the tea.
The representatives from
each fraternity were asked to
compile a list of girls to be
invited to the tea, which will
be held at the Carolina Inn,
November 4 from 4:00-6:00
p.m.
Phi
Mu is having a tea to
serve as a "rush function.
When the suggested list of girls
is turned in, invitations will be
sent to each one.
The IFC-faculty conference,
to be held on November 2-3 at
Reidsville, was also discussed.
The schedule of the conference
was announced by Stuart
Rosen, president of Tau
Epsilon Phi, who is in charge of
the conference.
The conference will consist
of discussion groups of ten
each. The topics concern the
relationship . between the
fraternity and the University.
Two representatives from
each house and invited faculty
members will attend the
weekend program. Participants
will arrive at approximately
2:00 Saturday afternoon,
November 2.
Discussion groups will meet
for 90 minutes on each of the
five main areas of discussion.
Sunday afternoon the
discussion will be formulated
into a policy recommendation
by a committee.
A similar conference was
held at Reidsville in 1961 which
resulted in the policy of
deferred rush.
Among other topics
discussed at the IFC meeting
were the five vacancies of the
IFC Court and the complaints
about juke box noise coming
from fraternity houses late at
night. It has been decided that
a house may be fined from
$50 $500 for excessive noise,
as determined by the IFC
Court.
IFC President John Callan
spoke on the possibility of a
campus wide program similar
to the Symposium, to be held
in the spring.
Other announcements
included a new mixer policy, as
announced by Social Chairman
Bill Woltz, and a bill to
increase pledge fees, IFC dues,
and solicitorial fees, as
announced by treasurer Steve
Hope.
