Eut inside the Charlotte Coliseum. Carolina's shooting was quite warm, and the ball nestled into the net at a 59.4 per cent pace. The activity was hurried, too, as the Tar Heels ran and ran. The shooting display was enough to give UNC a one-sided 107-bl victory over Ciemson Saturday night, It gave the Tar Heels a split in the North-South Doubleheader with the Friday loss to South Carolina, and nationally second-ranked Carolina is now 19-2, 10-1 in the Atlantic Coast Conference. With one of its best performances from the field this season, UNC shot off from a 5-5 tie early and quickly wrapped it up. There was never really any doubt who would win. but with nine minutes gone Carolina began a scoring streak which left the Tigers outscored General College Group Readying For Proposals IS I'a I-.Or-PY NO WELL "UTil Stc.ff Writer .i. advisory committee on General Coliepe curriculum hearinc completion ot its rackground studies re a d i r; g to f or: r t c o rr. m e n d a t i o r. s the Fvste: mprovmg iired studies a; and n u late for n of the eristy. Ir. Eupene Merzbacher. chairman of the 19-member committee which includes four students, said Friday he has r.een pieased with the progress of the committee and d that it is not too mel ideas into us." mphasi .te to f Ww have spent a good deal time learning from groups h inside and outside this related, mostlv pus." Merzbacher has been background study, but at the same time we have begun to formulate our own ideas." The committee has held one or two meetings each week since October with the exception of a three-week recess for semester break. "We even did a lot of homework then." said Merzbacher. "Each committee member wrote down the curriculum he thought best for the General College, and we are now comparing them. But we aren't trying for an average; we are merely learning from each other." The areas of the General College which have been most discussed so far are the requirements in English, Modern Civilization, Foreign Languange, and "the detailed : y i t : ... c4 J Fo"ler r Around Ribeok Roche nature of the Natural Sciences." according to Dr. Merzbacher. "The Math requirement has' been discussed very little and the impression seems to be that it is satisfactory as it now stands." Merzbacher noted that the present GC format has remained the same since Mid-Thirties. "Any change made in the curriculum of such a big univerisity can never be a small thing. There are economic as well as pragmatic factors to be considered. Also one must not forget that this University sets the public education standards for North Carolina," Merzbacher pointed out. "However, there is some sentiment on the committee that the GC is antiquated some think it ought to be done away with altogether," he continued. "We really have no unanimous opinions, but the very strong opinions have become somewhat modified. I sense an emerging consensus. We are looking very closely at similar movements around the country." As an example of these programs, Merzbacher offered "the trend toward a normal course load of four instead of five courses." and a recently developed "two-track" program of studies at Duke which provides regular and selective courses. "We are also looking for wavs to improve the advisins system," he added. Merzbacher also said he has been pleased with the student involvement in the committee's work. "It takes a really dedicated student to be interested in something which probably won't affect him before he leaves the General College. But we had a phenomenal turnout at our first public meeting, and I think as we come closer to conlusions we should have another such meeting. We are very open to suggestions from anvone. v f f 5x '- ' -v I 22-4 to settle it on the scoreboard. That upped the lead from seven to 25. and thereafter the game was one big yawn. The man who did the most to kayo the Tigers was guard Dick Grubar, normally an ordinary scorer. Grubar found the Ciemson 2-3 zone just right for his delicate tastes, so he threw in 25 points, mostly from outside. He missed only two shots. The long-haired backcourter, who signs more autographs for female admirers than anyone besides Beatle John Lennon, went 10 for 12 from the field and hit five of six from the foul line. Grubar could easily afford to laugh as he leisurely shot from IS feet, just to the rieht of the key. Ciemson sat back in its zone and watched, and suffered greatly for it. The 25 points tied Grubar's all-time UNC high, and his other two 25 point nights came in Charlotte as well. Grubar was so accurate, he threw a layup backwards over his head and sank it. He was also fouled on the play. It wrasn't all Grubar for Carolina, but he was all that was needed. Ciemson, whose tallest man is 6-6, couldn't compete inside against the much taller Clark. The Tigers kept defenders underneath to try to equalize the height difference, but even so were outrebounded 45-29. Reserve center Lee Dedmon grabbed 11 rebounds for Carolina, while Rusty Clark had 10. I he largest margin was earlv in the second halt, but three quick substitutions anc a more relaxed UNC defence allowed Ciemson to avoid a total catastrophe. It was so boring in the second half, Clark was hit ir the back of the head with a pass underneath from Brown. Student Groups Youth Air Fare To Butch Zatezalo, the Tigers' gunning guard, was top scorer in the game with 35 points.

Februan What s 4 Frat era ity Like i By BRYAN CUMMING DTH Staff Writer The rushees who visit the 24 social fraternities next week will have to ask themselves, countless times. why a fraternity? What is fraternity life really like? What makes it better than a dormitory? The answer, from fraternity members themselves, is that a fraternity offers a better opportunity than a dormitory for lasting friendships. Among the factors that contribute to this friendship are living together, participating in intramural sports, and social activites. Miles Wilhelm, president of Chi Phi. says that the members of a fraternity are "always together" and form "'more lasting friendships" than those better than in a dormitory, but m then- have pride they car house. In intramural athletics, this pride shows up in fraternity espirit d'eorps. which Wilhem says is not evident in dormitories. One important difference is that fratemity members choose their own associates. while in a dormitory, most association is the result of random selection. Another way fraternity members get to know each other is through their social activities, which are the prime purpose of social fraternity. Still. Wilheim says that living together in the fraternity house is the most important way for brothers to get to know each other. According to Rixey Todd, a dorrrutorv. i Odd the kind of dormitory mt txcvuiic i. with its I OX- residents. overwhelming.

"Fraternities are usually composed of people with similar ideas and attitudes.'" says Wilhem. For this reason, not only can fraternity members know each other member of membership in leads to ""deeper IremdMapx not onlv in one fraternity, but within " the entire fraternity system. The intramural athletics and social activities oi a fraternity offer much more of a variety of activities than a Martha and tne Yandeilas. and is the biggest f-e-ritv social event of the vear. In relating the history ot the Germans projects, iodd says that ten years ago evening concerts were given, but m more recent years the trend of afternoon concerts has take predominance, as shown in the Sam and Dave concert two years ago. Germans concerts are now held in Memorial Hall, with about three-fourths of the audience dressed formally. The number of fraternities presently involved in the Germans Club, thirteen, is gradually increasing. and conerts may be moved to Carmichael Auditorium in later years. Ali Paksoy. a member of Pi Kappa Alpha and Rush Publicity Chairman for the Interfraternity Council (IFCi. says the chief advantage of a fraternity is its '"social availability." In a fraternity, as opposed to a dormitory, "you're close to all your brothers." Paksoy mentions partying and participations in intramural athletics as means of bringing brothers closer together. This feeling of closeness is important for friendship; "in a fraternity you can share a lot of common experience with others." Paksoy says that living in a fraternity house has no detrimental effect .upon (Continued on page 6) Oiser..
