Phi Sigma -nl Kappa left Carolina earlier due to erie a lack of funds and membership. af Sigma (hi President Scott says i his first knowledge of the charges brought against the group was at a meeting with the Dean of Men to which he was called after a No%ember intramural f 0 0t b a I I game. He claims he expected that the charges Woild be made at a meet ing of the IFC Tribunal as was the earlier social probation. He says that the next thing he heard alsut the matter was a short notice call to the office of the dean Wed nesday. Scott says that he feels that the group had a good case if it had had a chance to present it, and the matter was handled out of chan nels. The fraternity has the right of appeahng the ru'.ing to Vice Presi dent for Student Affairs Charles H. Witten and if that proves un sat isfactory to USC P r e s i d e n t Thomas Jones. Asked what action the fraternity would take next. Scott replied that the group planned to accelerate consultations with its national rep re-sentatives and .alumni chapter in light of what he felt was an in adequate c h a n c e to present the chapter's side and arbitrary han dling of the matter Out of proper channels. lie said the fraternity had hoped to present its side several times and Ilean Cooper did not see fit to hear it. The "parties" were held at a garage r e 1: t e (1 by a hotrod en thu-:ast in Sigma (hi, according to the pr'esid'nit. pus Politicos i Elections e- sion im the Law School auditorium. nd The t('pic for discussion wil! he t "Analysis "f Elections. 1966.'' rl_ Arguments will be brought forth by three group)s.

The third g-roup will consist of two independent observers, Wil liam Rone, associate editor of The State, and Jack Bass from the Co lumbia Bureau of The Charlotte Observer-. The dliscussion will be moder-ated by Charles Caton, news director of WIS-TV. In a joint statement the presi dents of the Young Republican and Young D)emocrat club, maid, "We feel that this program has a two fold purpose. First, it compli ments the "speak out" program of the University and second, it gives the individual students a chance to be exposed to the basic differ. ences and underlying policies of - the two parties, enabling them to become more politically informed." Patton Adams, president of the Y'D's, emphasized that this will be an informal discussion In which audience participation will be greatly encouraged.
