(Staff Photo By John Gellman) Top Speakers Scheduled To Visit UNC- Campus by Harry Bryan Associate Editor As many as 15 nationally prominent politicians, authors and journalists will speak on campus during the year under the sponsorship of the Carolina Forum, Peter Brown, chairman of the forum, announced recently. Speakers already scheduled include Osborn Elliott, editor-in-chief of Newsweek; poet W. H. Auden; Mayor Charles Evers of Fayette, Miss.; James Simon Kunen, author of "The Strawberry Statement"; Jane Howard, aruthor of "Please Touch"; Rep. Allard Lowenstein of New York; and Robert Kaiser, author of "RFK Must Die." Others who have received invitations to speak include Sen. Harold Hughes of Iowa; Harrison M. Symmes, former ambassador to Jordan; and Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. Another program has also been scheduled for October under the sponsorship of the forum, the College of Arts and Sciences and Student Government. - - Speaking on contemporary politics relevant to the November elections will be Joe Califano, leading campaign organizer for John F. Kennedy and "consumer-crusading attorney;" Lou Harris of the Harris Poll; James Reston, vice-president of the New York Times; and Stewart Alsop, Newsweek columnist. The forum, working as a committee mm UUNJ Expert Cleaning by Colonial Your Wc!f Tb Yrb3 Carpets Rece'rre Special Attesa Repairs - Mothproofing Binding - Serging Storage - Installation DRAPERIES Cleaned, also 0 1 with the Carolina Union programming group for the first year, will have more money to work with, Brown said, and should be able to offer a "more diversified group of speakers." The forum was formerly directly under Student Government. 'The only qualification prospective speakers must have," Brown said, "is that in whatever field they're in, they must influence peoples' opinions. But when they come here, we expect to challenge them as much as listen." Speakers in past years have included Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, John Kennedy and many, many more. However, recently the forum has been running into problems getting top speakers, Brown said, particularly conservative speakers. "Conservative politicians tend to try to steer away from us," Brown said. "They have their opinions, but they're afraid they won't get a chance to speak. "A speaker today doesn't want it printed in the newspaper that he was booed off a stage." .. Brown said the forum tried to get Vice President Spiro Agnew and Sen. Barry Goldwater, but both refused to come to the Chapel Hill campus. Conservative William Buckley was also invited but asked far too much money to come, Brown said, which brings up another problem-exhorbitant speaking fees. "The prices wanted by people to come N LIKE NEW FREE PICKUP AND DELIVERY 942-2960 New hours: 8-5 Mon.-Fri.; 8-12 Sot. COLONIAL BUG CLEAT3I3 407 L MAM Bonded & Insured CVgOBQ IT TT" yjiNi J.

"Speakers used to come to a college campus for as little as $150 and expenses. Now they want four figures. "Buckley spoke here five years ago for $450. Now he wants five times that much." Another problem, Brown said, is the great demand for nationally prominent speakers. "Speakers like Julian Bond (Georgia state congressman) get as many as 10 invitations for speaking engagements a day," Brown stated, "so you have to convince them that Chapel Hill is a good place to speak. "This is a strange town. Here you have a town with a black mayor in a state that has the Ku Klux Klan. Students here differ with students at other colleges in the state in terms of what they believe. "It makes Chapel Hill an interesting place because you have a liberal community in a basically conservative state." Brown, a senior English major from New York City, formerly worked with the Carolina Symposium in charge of publicity and finances. Other members of the forum committee include Peter Jost, Wilson Somerville, Fred Oliphant, Brit Nicholson, Lucy Hollis, Jim Schwarts, Barbara Southerland, Charlotte Armstrong and Chris Sawyer.

Accessories Bill Blue .Fellows Program Develops Leaders The North Carolina Fellows Program, formerly the Richardson Fellows has developed a new concept in learning designed to encourage creative leadership in : .blic and private affairs. he program is sponsored by the Nc th Carolina Leadership Institute of Greensboro. In its three-year history it has been offered to students at UNC, N. C. State, Davidson, East Carolina and Guilford. It will be expanded this year to include North Carolina A & T College. Opportunities in summer internships are the core of the program. The staff and advisory board maintain a catalogue of over 500 professional, educational, business and government organizations which offer internship training for students. Fellows may design their own internship programs or elect to take none at all. Approximately 32 students from UNC were selected as Fellows for the summer Dr. Dan Okee Speaks At Water Symposium "Conventional wastewater treatment does not remove the chemicals that originate in industry and the household nor does it eliminate the viruses that are contributed in human wastes," a UNC environmental engineer said in Washington Aug. 1 9. Dr. Daniel Okun spoke before the Fifth International Water v Quality Symposium which attracted environmental scientists from around the world. "About 50 percent of those who use public water supplies in the United States (and these are mostly in large communities use water at least part of which has been someone else's wastewater," Dr. Okun said.

Their internships ranged from serving as an assistant to a Missionary in Taejoh, South Korea to aiding Senator Sam Ervin on the Senate's Judiciary Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights. Several Fellows have created University-approved internships to be undertaken, for credit, during the school year. However, winter activities for most Fellows consist of seminars pertaining to their problems in positions of leadership and meeting with prominent guests on campus. All freshman students receive applications for the program. The basis for selection is academic achievement, intelligence, creativity, leadership potential and personal recommendations. A personal interview with the Advisory Committee of the Program is required for the final competition. New Fellows are chosen in October of their sopomore year. "Even conventional wastewater treatment is not yet fully available in the United States," he said. "In many congested areas, such as communities on the Hudson River, raw wastewaters are being discharged. "Furthermore, conventional water treatment fails to remove dissolved organic chemicals and heavy metals that are often present in raw waters drawn from polluted sources. "Society has become concerned with the quality of its environment. In the field of water this has focused on the problems of water pollution. However, one of the main purposes of water quality control, namely, making water suitable for domestic use, has been neglected," he said.

Student Body Vice President Bill Blue. ho also serves js Speaker of the Student Legislature, described his job as twofold. "My personal interpretation of the vice president's job involves more than just being Speaker of the Legislature." he said. "I am a member of the executive branch of government and try to act on those terms." The office of Vice Prer.Jent has traditionally centered on acting as a liason between the legislature and the executive branch of government. Blue claimed that he would like to see a future de-emphasis of the Speaker's role. Blue cited judicial reforms as the major task facing the executive and legislative branches of government this year. "Visitations and the establishment of a Communications Board will also be of high concern," Blue related. Treasurer Guil Waddeil handles student government finances including matters concerr ig student fees, tuition and activities fe s. "I also work with the SL in the allocation and distribution of Student Activities Fews." Waddeil said, "aiding these same organizations in obtaining funds unavailable from the SL is my third concern." In addition to the visitations and judicial reforms issues, Waddeil listed the selection of a new chancellor and the disruptions policy as problem areas for the University this year. "Whether or not Student Government will meet these crises is unknown at this time," Waddeil admitted, "but I feel that they have a greater probability of succeeding this year than previously." Ann Rothe, elected Secretary of the Student Body, was not available for comment. 1 ZOOM ZOOM LUNCHEON SPECIALS S1.30 11:30-2:30 ZOOM ZOOM LUNCHEON SPECIALS $1.30 11:30-2:30 MONDAY-FRIDAY Shrimp Salad MONDAY Veal Parmigiane with Spaghetti Soup Safad- Rolls TUESDAY V BBQ Chicken 2 Veg.-Soup-Salad-Rolls WEDNESDAY Roast Leg of Lamb with mint jelly 2 Veg.-Soup-Salad-Rolls THURSDAY Braised Beef Ribs -2 Veg.
