According to Dan Killian, news chairman of the committee, there is a good chance that students will receive pay for time involved. Eight students Dan Killian, Rick White, Joe Graves, Jim Narron, Roger Hardister, Gerald 'Bebber; Steve Templeton, Wayne Woodard, and Tom Moorehave been residence college representatives on the committee this" semester, but "the work is too great for so few people," according to KjUian. He added that the Pommittee especially needs girls to help. The Committee, which can do publicizing for any campus group which requests it, has recently sponsored "gripe-in" sessions in residence colleges. It furnished the University News Bureau with student hometown news releases, and works with the bureau on state-wide news releases. The Committee handled state-wide publication for the Black-Power symposium, the YMCA mock election, and Time Out Day, this fall in addition to distributing leaflets announcing various student meetings. Ford Predicts Return To Reason Rationa By BOBBY NOWELL DTH Staff Writer House Minority Leader Gerald Ford Monday predicted a . "return to realism, rationality, and reasonable- ness" under the Richard Nixon administration. The Michigan Representative, who spoke in Memorial Hall as the second dignitary presented this fall by the Carolina Forum, further said "Nixon will provide the incentive for a new era of good feeling through conciliation and reconciliation." He pointed to the president-elect's tax credit program as an example of how Strom To Speak Here Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina has been scheduled to appear before the Carolina Forum on Feb. 9, Forum Chairman Scott Goodfellow announced today. The Thurmond program will be the third this year for the Forum. Earlier, former Gov. William Scranton of Pennsylvania and House Minority Leader Gerald Ford appeared here. Goodfellow also noted the visit by Sen. George McGovem has been postponed because of conflict with the Clemson basketball game on Dec. 16.

Lipsitz was chosen to debate the Dow representative the Dow Research Committee of the Southern student Organizing Committee (SSOC). The committee, headed by Joe Polin, has been working since the beginning of the school year to set up the debate. The Dow debate is being sponsored by the YMCA with help from student government. YMCA official Joe Shedd also gave Dean of Student Affairs CO. Cathey credit for making the debate possible. Cathey reportedly told Dow officials they could not recruit on the UNC campus without first participating in an open debate. The order apparently resulted from an accident involving a Dow recruitment drive here last spring in which 15 protestors, including ten students and teachers, were arrested for blocking the entrance of students to rooms in Gardner in which Dow recruiters were conducting interviews. Some 50 protestors, after being prevented from entering Gardner, proceeded to Dean Cathey s office, presented their grievances, and demanded that Dow recruiters be required to debate. About 15 of the demonstrators later gained entrance to Gardner through a side door, and were arrested for blocking a second-floor halL A Dow recruiter on campus at the time ailed gedly said the Dow representatives would have been willing to debate if they had been given advance notice. In the debate tonight, each participant will be given the opportunity to make a statement and a rebuttal. The debate will then be thrown open for a question and answer session with questions being solicited from the audience. Polin said the debate will be open to everyone and extended an invitation to students and faculty members to attend. He added that he hopes Dean Cathey and Joe Galloway of the placement service will attend the debate so they will be able to make a decision (Continued on page 6) Nixon will succeed in implementing new approaches to old problems. "If the Congress in which the Republicans are still in a minority can cooperate with Nixon as well as President Johnson has in the past month, I think we can effect great social changes," Ford declared. However, he added that "it is the obligation of the new administration to end the war in Vietnam," and that the war has "prevented the accomplishments of many social objectives. Ford did not go into detail as to the Nixon plan for ending the conflict in Southeast Asia. But he commented that, "Hard OUCH This young Carolina coed is nothing but hurt as she is administered the Hong Kong Flu vaccine at the Student Infirmary.

"It's no pleasure to send cars home," said Squires. But "if people aren't going to cooperate, we don't need then cars here." A car is sent home after three offenses have been recorded. Both red tickets (accompanied by fines) and blue tickets (warnings) count as offenses. A car sent home may be brought back to campus the following August 3L The record is cleaned then; offenses are not held over a summer. And if a student violates this punishment? Then there is trouble. The sending home of a car is not recorded on a student's permanent record. If he violates this however' bargaining in Paris will probably not begin" until after the Jan. 20 inauguration. "We ought not to be so impatient that we throw away all the sacrifices we have thus far made in Vietnam," he stated. The Republican leader called the appointment of Melvin Laird of Wisconsin as O 4. f T P ti a good choice in that he has an excellent grasp on our foreign status and methods." Asked whether he thought Laird, one of the sgrongest opponents of the Johnsonian method of conducting the Vietnam war, was a "hard-liner" on foreign policy, Ford replied, "No, I think he's just a realist." Ford admitted he "agrees with our objectives in Vietnam, but not the method of implementation.'" He pointed out that nearly 60 per cent of the American electorate voted against the present policy, at the same time shifting sentiments in Congress. "I believe congressional the Democratic leadership will bend over backwards to cooperate with initial Nixon programs." ne said. The next Congress will probably be more conservative than tne last, and I believe Nixon can get along with this." lity Department Indent Cars he is called before the Dean of Student Affairs and, depending on the circumstance, the resulting discipline could be as Leaves Making By ANNE RHODES Special to the DTH Where are they now? You've gazed at them, snatched them, run over them, thrown them, kicked them, and maybe even jumped into them. Now that you've had your fun with the leaves on campus, what will happen to them? The leaves are now being prepared for their burial at University-controlled Mason farm. Before they settle down there for a long winter's nap (as compost), several thousands of dollars and over 1,000 hours of work will have been spent in collecting and disposing of the University's leaves. Eight men working with the collecting equipment and raking will spend around four weeks gathering the fallen leaves, according to T.W. Llovd. a foreman of the Grounds Department in charge of campus sanitation. Their deadline: to beat the ice, sleet, and snow which makes their work impossible. The big "vacuum cleaner" truck that you may have stopped to watch sucks up around 21,000 pounds of leaves a day! Campus Superintendent Larry Trammel savs this truck is comparable to the citv's leaf rnU between $9,000 and $10,000. This is the first year the machine has been used at UNC. Once activated, the wind tunnel pulls up the pile of leaves into the truck. The force of gravity is enough to prevent bottles and large obstales from entering The machines does, not grind the leaves; it merely compresses them. Actually, the wind tunnel is a separate ISC Sponsors Flight A round trip flight from New York to London this summer is being sponsored by the Student Association for Travel, a private club for the promotion of travel The flight, costinff $205 with a $50 deposit, will leave New York on June 14 and return on Sept. 9.

Leave; Mulch attachment, and the truck can be used like a regular garbage truck because of a side opening on it. At the end of the day, the truck dumps its heavy compressed load on the farmland. A blower, now in its second year's use, is used by the grounds department for blowing leaves off the walkways and for piling small leaves together. Good for flat surfaces, the blower helps only when the leaves are dry. Another piece of equipment used on campus is the leaf-picker. This small machine has rubber "Fingers" which stab the leaves on the ground and send them to the hopper. And, of course, there are the rakes, which can get under bushes that the other equipment can't. Before the University acquired this machinery, lawn mowers had mulching machine attachments, and the leaves were distributed on the campus to enrich its soil. This year around 20 loads of leaves will be dumped on Mason farm That amounts to an estimated 210 tons, which is more than the most ingenious student could use for entertainment. up Student Body President Ken Dav announced Tuesday the appointment of five members io a special scuoy commission on Students' Rights to examine double jeopardy in judicial trip run over $450.

Clifford today proposed a mutual withdrawal of U.S. and North Vietnamese troops from South Vietnam within the next 40 davs. uiittord said he meant "only that it was my personal desire that such progress would be made in Paris" peace negotiations. He told a news conference the United States would not consider a "unilateral withdrawal of troops." "Our withdrawal of troops would be on a mutual basis with those of North Vietnam," he said. "I would like to see in the next 40 days the start of the Sends "In previous years," he said, students felt "it was worth the chance. We had to become more severe to curb students from taking faculty and staff parking." Over 400 cars have been towed so far this year. But Squires, who has to look after 13,000 xarsjand. 5,6Q0 parking spaces, reminded students "Every car that is ticketed is subject to being towed." The Office of Traffic and Safety is authorized to suspend motor vehicle privileges of any student with three or more violations; tickets can be appealed before they are counted as offenses. If a student receives one of the red or blue tickets and feels it is unjust or unwarranted, he can appeal within 48 hours. If the appeal is not made within this time, the student loses his right to appeal Red tickets should be taken to either Byron Riggsbee or Arthur Beaumont at the office of the Chief of Security. Blue tickets should be taken to Squires in the basement of Y-Court. He cannot revoke a red ticket, but he can help a student appeal one. Squires says one of the biggest problems is students who bring cars to campus without a permit. This can lead to the student being forced to pay a $5.00 late registration fee instead of $L00 for the required temporary permit. These are issued on a weekly basis by the Office of Traffic and Safety. "We have more trouble with temporary permits than almost anything else on campus," Squires stated. Set Up 1 To cases.

"And I think there is a possibility of agreeing with North Vietnam on mutual reduction of troops in that period." The 40-day period cited would be the remainder of President Johnson's term, which ends Jan. 20. Clifford was asked whether he had word that negotiators in Paris were close to a troop withdrawal agreement. "I wish to create the impression only that it was my personal desire that such progress would be made in Paris that in the next 40 days or 60 or 120 days I hope we would be able to reach agreement in Paris so there would be a mutual withdrawal of troops," he said. Clifford said there was no indication that North Vietnam was taking advantage of the U.S. bombing halt infiltrate troops through the Demilitarized Zone DMZ into South Vietnam "There is no basis whatsoever for the charge that the cessation of the bombing has led to any increased American casualties," he said.

The commission will study trial records of cases in which both criminal and Honor Court action have been taken during the past year. The commission expects to make a report and recommendation to Day before the Christmas vacation. This report will be presented to Student Legislature and the student body. "The commission hopes to provide information," said Tuttle, "to help develop a comprehensive statute that wiB take into account many limitation and ultimate reduction of strategic nuclear missiles." He said the negotiations should start during the Johnson administration to "prevent a lag" between Johnson's departure and steps by President-elect Richard M. Nixon. There has been talk of a summit meeting but Clifford said "it would be up tc the two countries at what level the talks should be." "There is an attitude on the part of both countries now that could produce unusual benefits."

Tuttle said one problem involved in adopting a statue on double jeopardy is equal justice for all persons. "The circumstances surrounding double jeopardy cases vary greatly," said Tuttle. The commission will study the reports of the Faculty Committee on Student Discipline in making its recommendation. Any information contained in the Faculty Committee's reports that pertains to the question of double jeopardy will be considered by the Commission. The commission will also obtain information on past student cases from the Chapel Hill Town Solicitor if additional data is needed to complete its study.
