They will be entertained

This is the largest group of

students were invited.
The group will be given
tours of the campus by Hinton

as hosts and hostesses for the
students.
Interviews will be held

This is the fifth in a series of
interviews with candidates for
the office of president of the
student body.
TODAY'S QUESTION:
How do you feel about the
present system of University
decision-making? How do the
students fare under that
system?
TOMMY BELLO: The
present system of University
decision-making is both
outmoded and out of touch
with students. So many crucial
decisions are made about
students, not with them.
Instead of merely criticizing
this system, let my criticism be
constructive, saying I will press
for change in the present

Lexington.
Saturday the visiting
students will be allowed to
meet with representatives from
the various departments and
schools of the University.
There will be an informal
"question and answer" session
Saturday afternoon which will
permit the students to find out
more about the courses offered
here.
The students will be able to
spend free time looking at the
campus and the town.
A banquet will be held
Friday night featuring
President William C. Friday
and Chancellor J. Carlyle
Sitterson at the Carolina Inn.
A hootenanny will follow in
the Hinton James lounge.
Saturday night an informal
dance will be held for the 69
boys and 31 girls visiting the
campus.
The scholarships to be
presented are he William A
Whitaker, Josephus Daniels,
Andrew Bershak
Interfraternity, John W.
Graham, Alcoa, Elizabeth K.
Jordan, General Motors,
Herbert Worth Jackson,
Stonewall Jackson, and the
newly established James M.
Johnston awards.
Some 30 Johnston scholars
will be selected. The grants will
provide awards of up to $2,100
a year for four years to in -state
students and $2,900 a year for
four years to out-of-state
students.
The Johnston Trust has
provided $250,000 worth of
scholarships to be presented
this year. By 1973-74 the trust
fund is expected to total more
than $500,000 and offer
scholarships to over 200
students.

the University in 1917 but
kept in touch with the school
until his death in 1967. The

Sunday to serve as a
nominating, committee to
recommend officers for next
year, according to Emmett
Doe, international
representative of AFSCME
(American Federation of State,

among those who last week
cirulated a petition to disband

discontentment "management
instigated" and said the matter
had been settled by the union.
"The workers are moving
toward the goal of directing
their own destiny in solving
their own problems," Doe
commented.

Presidential Candidates Speak:

I feel that the University
should give students the credit
for having the intelligence and
maturity to run their own lives.
Student Government should
limit itself to those issues, such
as visitation, on which there is
a good consensus of opinion
among the students, in order to
present the administration with
a unified stand.
GARY FAG: The basic
difference between the
candidates is how they would
go about making the changes
that many of us agree upon.
I've personally seen that the
administration is not the
easiest thing with which to
deal.
However, I believe the best
way of making changes is
through a low-key approach.

ALAN HIRSCH: At the
present time, students have no
rights or responsibilities for
decision-making. This must be
changed.
Decisions in the University
that affect everyone must be
made jointly among all
members of the University
community.
Those decisions that affect
only one group, however,
should be made by that group.
For example, social rules,
which affect only students,
should be made by students,

You Can Kick The Habit,
ays Former Drug Addict
By GEORGE SIMPSON
Special to the DTH
Can a UNC student who is a
drug addict "kick" the habit?
Yes, says a 14-year addict
who has been off drugs now
for six.
Sam Anglin apparently
knows what he is talking
about.
Part of the core-group of
Dayton Village, a treatment
center for New York City
addicts, he was also founder
and director of the first
Phoenix House Therapeutic
Community, a similar
treatment agency.
"The main problem on drug
abuse is the lack of
communication between adults
and youngsters and an
apathetic national attitude,"
Anglin said.
He told a mixed audience of
curious UNC students,
concerned mothers and
determined educators Sunday
night at the step-off program
of the UNC Drug Sumposium
that the "whole national
problem is getting much worse.
"Many so-called educational
attempts to deter drug abuse
are failing," Anglin said. 'The
once-a-year drug film shown in
the local schools is more for
the teachers than students. The
kids forget all about it in a few
days and the teachers say, I
just don't understand why
these kids are on drugs we had

third in the list of contributors
to the University behind the
.federal government and
student funds.
Just as the state legislature
uses its funding power to
influence University decisions,
the student body president
must make it clear that student
funding is just as important to
the University.
As the second largest
contributor to the University,
students must recognize they
have the right to participate
actively in the decision-making
process.
The time has come for
students to have a role which is
something more than
rubber-stamp ratification for

communities within the
University 15 students, 15
faculty members, 15
represenatatives of the
non-academic workers and
administration, eight trustees
and seven alumni.
The group was scheduled to
convene in November, was
rescheduled for December, and
finally met for the first time in
February. Chancellor J. Carlyle
Sitterson explained the delays
were a result of the failure of
the various represented groups
to nominate candidates and
submit names on time.
After its first organizational
meeting Febuary 14, James
Gaskin, University registrar,
assumed the chairmanship of
the forum's steering
committee. He expressed at
that time a doubt concerning
whether the forum could really
accomplish anything.
The body, he said, had no
explicit charge or power and
was basically designed merely
to facilitate communication
between the various groups
within the entire University
community.
Gaskin's hopes that in this
first substantive meeting the
group can address an issue
which he feels is critical to the
a film didn't we!5"
A first step towards curbing
the problem may be to "do
something intelligent about
marijuana," Anglin said. "We
should set up a study not one
that will last 40 years and be
bogged down with
ambiguity but one that will
last two years, using human
volunteers, and can speak with
authority on marijuana.
"Young people must learn
there is more to life than drug
stupors. We must show them
that life can be better when
you're in control of your
senses and not living in
constant fear."
Anglin implied he favors less
legal intervention in the drug
problem and more personal
interaction by community
members.
Chapel Hill has an agency to
help people kick the drug
habit, control bad acid trips,
and receive advice and medical
aid by making a phone call.
Called "Switchboard," it is
manned by UNC students
(many of Jvhom have had
experience with various
narcotics).

University. Early in February.
HEW told officials of the thre
major campuses of the
Consolidated University that
having non-discriminatory
admissions policies is not
enough as long as student
population continues to reflect
former racial identifications.
All members of the forum
have been sent a copy of the
HEW letter, as vvrll as other
literature Gaskin felt was
relevant to the topic.
He said the food service
problem was an integral part of
this basic problem, and
although the food service is a
more immediate situation, it
could be "considered in greater
perspective after consideration
of the race question.
Gaskin also said the forum
could best determine what its
function, as yet undefined, will
be by simply holding a model
meeting to see how things go.
There is a difference of
opinions among the
membership, he said,
concerning what exactly they
are supposed to do.
He is not sure, for instance,
whether the body will actually
make recommendation, or
merely communicate among
themselves.
drug problem or just wants to
talk about their own drug
problems can do so without
fear of legal repercussions.
UNC security chief Arthur
Beaumont said "Switchboard"
is strongly supported by the
Police Department.
Some points made by
Anglin included:
Alcohol abuse is as serious
a step towards addiction as is
use of marijuana. Anglin scid
his addictive process began
with alcohol.
Heroin usage can reduce a
person to a "walking zombie"
preventing him from socially
interacting.
Being high on heroin is
not gaining new good feelings,
but is hiding bad ones.
It is impossible to dry up
the drug traffic, so the
atractiveness of drugs must be
reduced. Education and
community interaction are a
start.
