Registration
Set Wednesday
For Pass -Fail
Registration for pass-fail courses will
be held September 23 through October 2,
it has been announced by Raymond
Dawson, dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences.
Before the end of the second full week
of classes a student may designate a
course (or courses) for which he had
registered in the regular manner as
"pass-fail" by application to the office of
his dean.
Once a course has been selected for
pass-fail, Dawson said, the selection is
irrevocable.
A failure on pass-fail will be computed
as hours attempted. However, a pass will
not be computed as hours attempted.
A student who changes his major to a
field in which he has already taken
pass-fail work may credit only one
pass-fail course in the new major. If he
had taken more than one such course, he
would forfeit credit.
According to procedures for students
in the General College and the College of
Arts and Sciences, a maximum of 24
hours of pass-fail credit may be applied to
graduation requirements.
Any course may be elected for
pass-fail except: English 1 and 2; courses
taken to meet the foreign language or
math sciences requirements; the eight
courses chosen as divisional electives in
the new General College curriculum;
courses in a student's major; related
courses specifically required and
designated by number by the major
department or curriculum and summer
courses.
A minimum of 1 5 hours of letter-grade
credit is required to qualify for the
Dean's List.
The rules were approved by the
Faculty Council in May and will be
reviewed and resubmitted in the spring of
1972.

According to the 1970-71 Carolina
Handbook listings, Ayers currently serves
as UP chairman with party member Jim
Hornstein presiding as vice-chairman.
Flynt said upon returning to
University campus this fall he questioned
former party chairman Wadell about the
chairmanship. According to Flynt,
Waddell said Ayers was the chairman.
Violation
In James
James dormitory. The fourth floor voted
last week to accept the policy passed by
Student Legislature last spring which
allows seven day a week, 24 hours a day
visitation. .
The option of accepting either the
administration's Open House Aereement
or the policy passed by SL was given to
individual residence houses in legislative
action last Thursday.
The administration policy, the only
policy which is recognized as official,
allows for visitation from noon to 1 a.m.
Sunday through Thursday and from noon
to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday.
According to Schroeder, violations of
the administration policy would fall
under the jurisdiction of student courts.
Violations of the SL policy would come
under the jurisdiction of the
faculty-administration board.
Friday Schroeder was informed that
five houses (Chi Psi, Old West, Carr,
Manly, and fourth floor James) had not
adopted the University's policy on
visitation.
By Monday only two houses had met
and passed the administration's policy.
Fourth floor James had voted to affirm
its former policy of seven day 24-hour
visitation. '
John McDowell, attorney general, said
as it stands now student courts can not
prosecute the case.
If SL backs down Thursday night and
accepts the administration's policy
McDowell said he feels that the student
would be given an option to be tried in
student courts. However, proceedings
against the student would not be initiated
by his office.
Tom Bello, student body president,
referred to the University as "legimate
landlord" which can make regulations
concerning housing.
Bello called attention to Section 3-3
of the Bylaws of the Trustees and Duties
of Officers in which the Chancellor is
given the duty to exercise full authority
in the regulation of student conduct and
in matters of student discipline in the
institution. Thus it is clear, he said, that
the administration, not the students, has
full authority over student conduct.
Bello said he hoped SL was aware the
ammendment jeopardizes students who
accept the SL policy as well as the
student judicial system.
"It is in the best interest of the
student body and the student judiciary
for student courts to try all student
violators of the open house policy.
"I hope that they will reconsider to
see if the principle involved outweighs the
practicality," Bello said.

The position of UP chairman was
vacated by Waddell last spring when he
ran for Student Body Treasurer. Blynt
said the party's constitution provides for
the next ranking officer to assume the
office.
Flynt claims the next in line as of last
spring would be the organizational vice
chairman, in this-case himself.
Waddell coald not immediately be
reached for comment on the issue.
According to Flynt, the party's
constitution stipulates an elections board
must meet before a permanent chairman
can be elected and the board cannot meet
during the summer.
Also the executive board must have at
least 24 hours notification of any
meeting. Flynt said that he knew of at
least two members of the executive board
who received no notification of any
meeting during the summer.
"These people have not been elected
unless the party's constitution has been
changed in the back room," Flynt said.
Commenting upon Ayers and
Waddell's membership in Pi Kappa Phi
fraternity, Flynt stated, "I'm tired of
seeing fraternities railroading political
parties."
"You cannot cast the University
Party's constitution aside or disregard it,"
Flynt said.
Steve Ayers, Treasurer of UP at the
time of Waddell's resignation said the
handbook's listings possibly were based
on "recollections of who was next in the
hierarchy."
Ayers said if Flynt was organizational
vice chairman of the party when Waddell
resigned then presumably he is acting
chairman.
A meeting of the executive board will
be held in the near future when the issue
will be faced, added Ayers.
Meanwhile, Flynt, a member of the
executive board hiihself," called a .meeting
of UP members and any interested
persons for 8 p.m. Sunday at Howell Hall.
Flynt said he called the meeting as the
"chairman of the University Party."
"It 'will be an official meeting," he
said. "We are welcoming all students
particularly freshmen."
Flynt said discussion will center
around the upcoming UP elections a week
from this coming Sunday.

of the Carolina Forum.
According to the Carolina Forum, the
purpose of the series of speakers is "to
bring together the concerned and

The forum said it hoped the series
would "stimulate a candid and searching
debate both of the issues at hand and of
the impact and the feasibility of political
participation by university students."
Emphasis On Variety
Band ' Pflae
by Karen Jurgensen
Staff Writer
A force of 150 guitar- and
fiddle-players will string along with the
Carolina Marching Tar Heels Band for one
of its halftime shows this football season.
The country-and-western show is
typical of the varied programs planned by
the band.
Other halftime band programs will
include a tribute to Burt Bacharach and a
Band Day which will bring 4,000 to
5,000 musicians onto the Kenan Stadium
field.
Kenan Stadium's grass probably won't
see the light of day on Band Day.
"Between 60 and 70 bands have been
invited. The field should be covered with
colors and pageantry on an enormous
scale,' said Sam Loflin, student assistant
to the director of the band.
Of the band, Loflin said, "We're
dedicated and hard-working. We want to

other people with their troubles or just
providing friendship. In the words of
Switchboard's head man, Ric Carter, the
group "has no long-range goal. We just try
to help as many people as possible now."
According to Carter, Switchboard
deals primarily with people having" bad
drug experiences. He said there is no
place free of moralizing doctors, legal
hassles with police or moralizing parents
that persons on bum trips can go to.
Other youth problems which
Switchboard deals with are unwanted
pregnancies, draft pressures, family
relations, venereal diseases and many
others.
The first speaker will be Joe Califano,
advisor and special assistant to former
President Lyndon Johnson. Califano will
speak at 8 p.m. on Oct. 7 in Hill Hall. He
has written a book entitled "Youth and
the Establishment" with the aid of a Ford
Foundation grant. He is writing another
book tentatively entitled "The
Presidency."
On Oct. 14 pollster Louis Harris will
speak in Hill Hall at 8 p.m. His Harris Poll
is a regular feature of many newspapers
and magazines. He is a graduate of UNC.
A Harris data center here makes available
statistics and trends.

The Tar Heel Band is a select musical
marching unit of 120 members who
perform at all home football games. This
year the group also will travel with the
team to Wake Forest and Clemson.
The band is composed of men and
women from all schools of the University.
Members are chosen by audition.
Rehearsals take six hours a week. Each
band member receives one academic hour
of credit per semester of participation. If
a member maintains the necessary grade
average he is eligible for a band award.
The band employs a combination of
drill and pageantry. The Marching Tar
Heels have made a reputation with their
sound, full and brassy with woodwinds
adding highlights. Snappy tempos,
colorful uniforms and unique formations
add to their fame.

To Talk
Call
If Switchboard doesn't have the
facilities to deal with a certain problem, it
has what is called a "quality referral
service." A person with a particular
problem will be referred to an
appropriate- agency which Switchboard
members have scouted.
Switchboard also has five backup
physicians to help with emergency
medical problems.
Carter said, "If someone calls in a
heroin overdose, we tell the caller to do
anything to keep the guy awake. Then, a
backup physician and one Switchboard
worker go to the hospital to administer
nalline and help the person come out of
the overdose."
One of the backup physicians, Dr. Bob
Senior, has high praise for the group.
"This is the most exciting thing I've seen
in community affairs," he said.
"Switchboard has done a lot more than
just crisis intervention, and the lives they
have touched have been greatly helped,"
he added.
"This is why Switchboard exists: to
help ease immediate problems without
creating new ones like moralizing does,"
Carter said.
Chief W. D. Blake of the Chapel Hill
Police Department said he believes the
group is doing good.
"There should be a place like this for
people with drug problems. I know that
Switchboard has helped to save lives,"
commented the Chief.
