(Crntinued on page 6) Pine Room Owen By LAURA WHITE DTH Staff Writer Lenoir Dining Hall returned to full operation Monday while the Pine Room and the Monogram Dining Club are scheduled to begin serving today. A lack of "key personnel" will prevent Chase Cafeteria from re-opening at the same time, according to J.A. Branch, executive director of Auxiliary Enterprises at the University. Branch said over 50 of the approximately 70 workers who had struck have returned and were assigned work Monday. Montogmery said this type of service is "badly needed to fill a void in the existing services on campus." The counseling would "probably" be provided by psychology graduate students, according to Montgomery. "This would provide training for them and service to the students at the same time," he said. Montogmery hopes to have counselors' salaries paid by the administration. He cited the existing advisory system, job placement service and student health services as "inadequate" to fill the special needs of seniors. "The average student spends forty minutes with his advisor in four years," he claimed. "The placement service is geared more to clerical information than anything else APO, said his fraternity started a Lost and Found in the fall of 1967. The next pledge class didn't have the time to continue it. "The pledge class of 1968 decided to begin the Lost and Found again. We were given an extra room to set it up but weren't given permission to make it the official campus headquarters until January," said Morris. J.A. Williams, acting business manager and University attorney, helped APO establish the regulations for the Lost and Found.

The employees from Chase Cafeterial will work at Lenoir Hall until Chase reopens. No plans to hire black supervisors are being made now, according to Branch. "However, this does not mean we aren't looking," he added. The University Food Services will not continue to make UNC sandwiches so long as Chase Cafeteria is not Seniors and the student health services (psychiatric and psychological) are too highly keyed for most students. "Students are too apprehensive about seeking formal psychiatric or psychological help for fear their records might appear on future job applications," he stated. Montgomery cited a "definite need for a low-keyed counseling service which would be responsive to the needs of seniors." He listed these needs specifically as advice on future employment, military service and graduate school. "I feel that this is a realistic and feasible idea," concluded Montgomery.

Articles at the headquarters ix Z 7r Late Session Changes Postponement Decision By MIKE COZZA DTH Staff Writer The Student Supreme Court struck down part of the campus election law as unconstitutional early Monday morning, but refused to prohibit the Elections Board from holding today's campus elections. The part of the law ruled unconstitutional limits campaign expenditures of candidates for campus offices. As the interpretation now stands, no limitations exist on such expenditures. The court's refusal to postpone elections fqllowed a decision rendered Sunday afternoon that the elections would be postponed until April 1. The class was reopened for additional evidence early Monday after several campus leaders petitioned for reconsideration. The matter was first brought before the court last week by Student Legislator John Kelly, independent candidate for student body president. Kelly complained that the Elections Law was unconstitutional because it discriminated against independent candidates. The law allowed independent presidential candidates to spend $50 in personal expenses. Party candidates were allowed the same $50, plus an additional $250 in total party expenditures. Kelly also asked the court to postpone the election to give all candidates an equal opportunity if it ruled the lawr unconstitutional. The court initially ruled by unanimous decision the expenditures provision discriminatory and unconstitutional. It also ruled unanimous the elections should be postponed one week. "In light of the fact that this election would be held under an unconstitutional law, and candidates allowed to would not be run again without infringement, the court rules that harm has been established sufficient to postpone the election," Chief Justice George Krichbaum said in handing down the decision. The court also set guidelines for campaign expenditures 'Man And His Environment9 Area For 1970 Symposium By TOM GOODING DTH Staff Writer "Man and His Environment" has been chosen as the topic area for the 1970 Carolina Symposium by the Interim Symposium Committee.

A pledge cleaned out the soup but the jug is there for the owner. "We have text books, notebooks, a Zip Code directory, raincoats and a boy scout hat," said Morris. APO has an abundance of keys, jewelry and wallets. "I wish the girl who lost her skirt would come claim it. We're open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Or, she can call us at 933-3996." Morris said. until nondiscriminatory regulations could be established by Student Legislature. After that decision, however, a request to re-open the case was filed under the names of Alan Albright, Rafael Perez, Wayne Hurder, Ken Day and Todd Cohen. The court reconvened early Monday morning to hear the group's arguments for reconsideration. Represented by former Student Body Vice President Don Carson, the group maintained the court had no legal right to set a new date for the election. Carson argued that sole right to set all elections was specifically delegated by the Student Constitution to Student Legislature. The court ruled the complaint valid and admitted it as new evidence. It then ruled by a 2-2 vote not to postpone the election. That decision took precidence over the Addition Planned For Carroll Hall By TOM GOODING DTH Staff Writer ' The School of Business Administration has announced that construction will begin this week on a $1.6 million addition to Carroll Hall. The three and one-half story brick and limestone building will surround the existing auditorium wing on the west side of Carroll Hall and will extend westward into the existing gravel parking lot. The 55,800 square-foot facility will have five amphitheaters of approximately 65 seats each, four classrooms with between 35 and 65 seats each, a large reading room, seminar rooms and approximately 60 faculty offices. The new building will eliminate approximately 80 parking spaces on the lot between Venable Hall and Phillips Hall and will completely eliminate the Infanticide; the Biological Time Bomb; or Saving Shaping, and Controlling the Modern World. According to Doug Morgan, co-chairman of the committee, "The committee sees this topic as relating to a great many disciplines of the University and utilizing a number of the resources of the University community. "In addition, it is believed that a properly designed and publicized Symposium will arouse lasting interests among the students and prove to be a timely and meaningful educational experience. "The Symposium is intended to explore not only the technological and scientific aspects of man's changing world, but also the political, ethical and sociological implications of ecological change," said Morgan. Listed as possible sub-topics are: the pressure of an ever increasing population, the menace of pollution, the need for world government and planning, the significance of genetics and the need to re-establish communication between the increasingly specialized segments of our technological society.

Chief Justice Krichbaum said the justices did not want to prohibit today's election with no guarantee that the Legislature would sot a new date. The decision was handed down at 3:15 Monday morning. Kelly, who was present at the second hearing, said he was disappointed in the court's final decision. "They have ruled that the harm done to the student body by postponing elections outweighs the harm done to me personally by the discrimination that has existed against independent candidates," Kelly said. "I firmly believe that the injustice to the student body because it did not have the opportunity to hear all sides equally far outweighs the injustice of postponing the elections," he said. driveway between Phillips and Carroll Halls. Alien Waters, director of operations and engineering, who made the announcement, also said, "An additional parking lot is in the planning stage in what is now Wilson Court to the west of Nash Hall. "There will be a net loss during the remainder of this academic year but the new Wilson Court lot is planned to be completed before the fall term of 1969." The new building, scheduled for completion in the summer of 1970, will be fully airconditioned. The architect for the building was Liles, Carlyle, Bisset and Wolff of Raleigh, and the general contractor will be King Hunter Inc. of Greensboro.

The Interim Committee is now in the process of selecting a chairman to administer the program. Anyone interested in the position of chairman should call Doug Morgan at 933-3939 or Ben Hawfield at 942-3960. Interviews for chairman will be held from 2 to 5 pm on Friday, March 28, in the Frank Porter Graham Room of the Student Union. Students may sign up for interviews at the union information desk.
