"Besido the tact that men's wages re
up and women" are down, women
being cut out of the labor market." one
member vjid. "Men are taking eun
menial women's jobs." she added. "bai
none of the !picu!ly male professions are
opening up to us."
The FLM also ha checked on the
percentage of women in the University
departments and found that "women are
just not being hired."
Only one department head is j
woman. "Many other departments are
trying to push the women they do have
out. one member added.
The group's complaint over the
University's practices of accepting women
came to a head last spring with several
conferences with the administration and
the prospect of a discrimination suit.
"The University should encourage the
best students to apply and should be fair
about their acceptance," they said, "but
it is still following discriminatory
practices."
One of their proposals was to take the
"sex" category off admission applications
and admit students soley on the basis of
their abilities and achievements.
Of their list of 21 demands last spring,
only one was accepted. The married
student housing requirements were
changed so that now a couple can get
University married housing if either
member is a student. Previously, the man
had to be a student.
Another request last spring was for the
University to include a course in
self-defense for women, which it refused
to do. The group set up their own free

Freshman Coeds Able
To Rush This Year
Freshman coeds may participate in
second semester sorority rush this year.
Previously, girls had to wait until their
sophomore years to go through sorority
rush.
A pamphlet was sent to all freshman
women last week to introduce them to
sorority life at UNC.
Since freshman women have not had a
chance to see what sororities are like, all
sororities will have open houses on
Thursday, Dec. 3. Freshman students are
invited to drop by any or all of the
sorority houses between 7 and 10:30
p.m. v-
Second semester rush will include all
women" students. Any student, freshman
or upperclassman, who is interested irif
participating shoul'd sign up in the Dean
of Women's Office, 01 Steele.
A woman must have a 2.0 QPA to go
through rush and pledge a sorority.
Freshmen, however, may sign up for rush
before they receive grades for first
semester with the understanding that
they will become ineligible for rush if
they do not have a 2.0 after first
semester.
Panhellenic Council is presently
revising the format for -spring sorority
rush. An evaluation of this fall's rush is
being undergone. Changes will be made
from suggestions received.
Rush manuals and registration
materials will be sent to women who sign

member said. "Guards are not around

Female Liberation is also trying to
equalize dormitory rules and women
student hours.
The group is trying to change ihe
misconception that members are against
raarriaee and motherhood.
"Motherhood is beautiful, but is not
given enough recompense." one member
said.
"Marriage is a master-indentured
servant relationship as it is now," another
said. "We are looking for marriages which
are more fulfilling, those in which the
man and woman are equals." she added.
".Men don't think about all they can
gain from a woman being an equal
partner," another said. "We can share in
the bad work as well as the good, share
life on an equal basis."
"The standard of living has not
increased from the men's efforts but from
women who work," she added.
The women admit, "There is no such
thing as a liberated woman in this society.
A woman can think she is so long as she
stays in her own living room."
The group's hope is to make women so
conscious of this fact that they will
change attitudes from within the family,
which in turn would change the structure
of society.

revised.

New Aid Funds Asked.
WASHINGTON President Nixor. akvJ Congrcvi Wedtwsdjv to approve .in
additional Si. 055 billion for foreign aid u allies in Southeast Asia and me Middle
Fast "as we reduce our direct involvement abroad.
- The extra money Nixon sought would be in add,! ion to the S2.2 billion torergn
aid request before Congress lor the fiscal ear that began July I .
Of the additional amount. Israel would receive $500 million hr credit tor arms
purchases. Cambodia would get S225 million, and Korea would get SI 50 million.
A hieh level White House advisor, conceding the request was unusual tor so late
in the fiscal year, said the aid was necessary partly because of decreasing direct U.S.
' involvement abroad and partly because of unexpected contingencies, such as the
events in Cambodia and the Middle Fast.
Whatever his reasons for asking it. the President's chances appeared dim of
getting the extra money -at least in the current Congress where the (ooper-( hurch
amendment still awaits passage.

Climbers Conquer Mountain
YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK. Calif.-In an epic for the annals of
mountaineering, Wan-en Harding and Dean Caldwell, the stubborn mountain
climbers who wouldn't be rescued, Wednesday conquered the 3.000-foot southwest
face of El Capitan.
Bearded and grimy but in jubilant spirits, they feasted on fried chicken on the
huge stone monolith's domed summit and told a crowd of 40 welcome rs they
"hadn't lost a pound" in the 30-day ascent, one of the longest endurance rock
climbs ever performed. ,
Harding, 46, and Caldwell, 27, swung over the top of the "Wall of the Early
Morning Light" at 10:14 a.m. after 30 days and 30 nights, most of them spent
