courtroom on the second floor
of the Town Hall.
Two faculty members and
four students were arrested on
the night of Nov. 5, but one
student, Bryan McKay, was
released and another, George
Vlasits, was arrested four days
later.
The "street party" was on

which offers "all you can eat

limited selection of foods this
week on a large-quantity basis.

police not to cross the street

Kessler was arrested while
standing in the crowd, carried
away into a police car by a
plainclothesman, and taken to
the Chapel Hill police station.
He was charged with allegedly
obstructing traffic.
The second arrest was Bryan

Eric Clay was charged with

three more arrests.

Significant Step
Says Sitterson
By BOBBY NOWELL
DTH Staff Writer
The University has adopted a policy for self-limiting
hours for upperclass women students, Chancellor J.
Carlyle Sitterson announced Monday.
The new policy, which Sitterson termed "a step
forward for the University," and "a significant step in
recognizing the maturity and responsibility of our
women students," was recommended by a
student-faculty-administration committee and was
authorized by the Chancellor and Consolidated
University President William Friday.
It Will permit each camD US rlpn liner with nrnhlpms
of the Consolidated University
. I
to adopt "academic,
disciplinary, and security
requirements" under which
certain categories of women
students living in University
housing may determine for
themselves times of departure
and return to their residences.
For the Chapel Hill campus,
this will include (1)
upperclasswomen over 21 years
of age; (2) bona fide juniors
and seniors under 21 years of
age who have submitted
written parental permission to
the University; and (3) 2.0
average and no record of
discipline for those eligible
juniors and seniors.
The policy will go into
effect on each campus "when
the academic disciplinary and
security requirements have
been developed and
promulgated and after parents
of all women students have
been advised of these,"
according to the report issued
by the Chancellor.
Sitterson said that he
considered these factors
"details of implementation"
which will be worked out by
the Women's Residence
Council (WRC) and the Dean
of Women's Office.
Libby Idol, WRC chairman,
said she is "delighted" with the
policy and added "it is broader
than I expected in that it
includes juniors. But I think
this was farsight on the part of
the administration since
pressure would have been
stronger to include juniors
next, anyway."
Miss Idol said she and the
rest of the WRC would do
everything possible to have the
policy effective by next
semester.
Sitterson praised the joint
committee for its
' comprehensive, cooperative,
and productive efforts" in the
"identification and appraisal of
factors which had to be taken
into account in considering
adoption of this policy."
The committee began its
deliberations last spring and
worked during the summer
drafting the questionable which

"Dean Carmichael had tried
to start this years ago but
found the necessary interest
lacking. But when she was
informed of the interest now
on campus, she immediately
started to work on the idea."

with Mr. Woodell, foreign

All had come to the base
under the auspices of the UNC
United Anti-War Mobilization
Front (UAQMF), a coalition of
leftist campus organizations.
Also arrested were N.C.
State student, Alan Cole, a
freshman from Newport News,
Va. and reporter Mike Cozza,
senior, Windsor, Conn., who
was covering the group's
activities for the Daily Tar
Heel.
The students were charged
with violating Title 18, U.S.
Code, section 1382, which
provides that "picketing,
demonstrations, sit-ins, protest
marches, or similar activities"
are prohibited on federal
reservations. If convicted, the
students face a maximum
penalty of six months in prison
andor a $500 fine.
Charges were filed early
Sunday morning in the court
of U.S. Commissioner Wallace
Jackson. All the students
pleaded not guilty and
requested a continuance,
except Cozza, who accepted an
immediate hearing.
Cozza pleaded not guilty
and explained his status as a
reporter, not a member of the
anti-war group. After hearing
the evidence, Commissioner
Jackson postponed judgment
until Nov. 25, when the other
students will be tried.
At the time of their arrests,
two of the students, Mann and
Rose, were handing out leaflets
at a movie theater on base,
while the other students
observed their activities.
The entire group, however,
was arrested at about 7 p.m. by
several Military Policemen and
taken to the Provost Marshal's
present system for men at Carr
Building, with one
international student and one
American student in a room."
"However, there is going to
be some difficult in doing this
since there are only about 30
foreign girls on campus.
Because of this shortage the
floor will also serve as a

NUC Charges Irregularity
In
Cam
The American Association
of University Professors
(AAUP) has been asked to
investigate the University's
practice of denying the use of
certain campus facilities to
campus groups for fund-raising
purposes.
In a letter sent by the New
University Conference (NUC)
the group stated that the
University permits some
organizations on campus to use
its facilities but not others.
They also charged that the
granting of such was done on
an "obviously partisan basis."

The international house for

international house for boys as
a programming unit."

activities."
The students left at about
4:30 p.m., and a spokesman
said they would try to
determine from legal counsel
whether "similar activities"
covered leafleting and free
discussion. The spokesman said
the students had no intention
of violating any law.
They proceeded to
downtown Fayetteville, where
they talked to police and
reporters and ate dinner. The
group then returned to Bragg
at about 6:30 p.m. and went to
the theater where they were
arrested.

They had planned to present a

at the time included the
argument that Miss Collins
lacked wide audience appeal.
For lack of clear evidence of
discrimination against the SDS
and because of the
unavailability of Miss Collins
for the concert, the matter was
dropped.
Since Miss Collins is

reports that war protestors do
not support soldiers.
"We do support you," the

felt that this would be a good
time to raise the issue again.
To the matter of
discrimination, the letter
pointed out that a substantia
portion of the gross receipts
from the Bob Hope Show at
Carmichael Auditorium last
spring was given to a campus
ROTC-related organization.
This information was
supplied by Howard Henry,
director of the Carolina Union.
Another example of campus
organizations using University
facilities for fund raising affairs
was the use of Memorial Hall
for the Germans Club
weekend.
The letter stated
enforcement of the rule
preventing campus
organizations from charging
admission to entertainment
which they themselves bring
was done on a selective basis.
Such selective enforcement,
they contended, raises serious
questions about the purpose of
the rule.
In asking for the
investigation by the AAUP, the
NUC pointed out a statement
by the organization saying,
"The institutional control of
campus facilities should not be
used as a device for
censorship."
Copies of the letter have
been sent to the president of
the University of North
Carolina AAUP, the regional
office of the AAUP and
administration officials.
