Council To D
In Student As
Student Council at its next
meeting Monday afternoon will de
bate a motion which council mem
ber Robert Bell made at the last
meeting that the Carolina Student
Council should withdraw from the
National Student Association, the
national organization of student
councils to which a number of col
leges belong.
- The motion was tabled by a close
vote until this week. Bell, in a pre
pared speech, cited a number of
reasons why the Carolina Student
Council should withdraw from the
N. S. A.
He cited the fact that council
pays $100 in dues to the NSA each
year and has received no tangible
results this year except a visit
from one person who offered
"trips to Europe at a rate which
can be gotten anywhere else."
He cited the fact that council
spent $400 to sponsori delegates to
their convention at Ann Arbor,
Michigan, and that no tangible re
sults have been obtained from that
trip.
He cited three resolutions which
were passed at that national con
vention, urging integration in the
nation's colleges and denouncing
segregation as being unconstitu
tional, and urging steps to be
taken to bring more control of fra
ternities and sororities under the
auspices of the NSA.
For these and other reasons
which Bell cited in his speech, he
moved that the University should
withdraw from-the N. S. A. De
bate will begin at Monday's meet
ing.
President's Inauguration
Council was informed that for
mal inauguration of student coun
cil presidents will henceforth be
held at a Spring Presidents' Ban

Certain council members ex
pressed the view that the new
members of council should be in
vited to attend the banquet since

working with the new president
and should know his positions
from the first.
Loan Fund
Sinclair Lewis, council member
in charge of the Donald Russell
Loan Fund, announced that con
tributions to the fund have ex
ceeded $250 and has been depos
ited in the treasurer's office.
A motion was passed by council
several weeks ago that as soon as
$200 was obtained that the loan
fund should be put into effect.
May Day Dance
Carroll Teague, student chair
man for the May Day Dance, an
nounced that the dance will be
held at the Memorial Youth Cen
ter on May 6. Buddy Morrow and
his orchestra have been contracted
by council to play for the dance.
Tickets are two dollars and will
be sold only in Russell House.

3 Majority
"or Passage
i students will vote for or
w constitution which is being
y by the Student Council will
ive today on the ground floor ,
Is majority vote from the stu
dent body is needed for ratifi
cation.
Once the constitution is ratified
by the students it would then be
submitted to the faculty for ap
proval. If approved by the faculty,
it would then go into effect on
April 16. Whether or not the con
stitution is ratified, elections will
be held on the appointed date with
run-offs on April 18.
The new constitution provides
that the jurisdiction of the Su
preme Court, which would replace
the Honor Board, shall extend
only to those areas approved by
the Administration; the student
government would have no power
over the Disciplinary Committee.
The student government would,
by this constitution, have two ma
jor powers which would have di
rect bearing on other campus or
ganizations. The first of these is
the allocation of student activities
fees; the other, the power to grant
charters to organizations to au
thorize them to function on cam
pus. This authorization does not
extend to those organizations
chartered by the state and to IFC,
Pan-Hellenic, national or local so
cial fraternities and sororities.
