Leaders Begin
Campus Move
For Daily R&B
I in (-slighting Committee
Vi ill Be Formed Soon;
IFC, GOP Aid Indieuted
Two student leaders launched a
movement this week to obtain a
daily Red and Illaek at the Uni
versity similar to The Daily Tar
Heel they inspected at the. Uni
versity of North Carolina.
Campus Leader James Bentley,
Thomaston, and Vice Campus Leader
Grady Griner, Savannah, represent
ing GOP, non-fraternity group, began
planning "ways and means” of es
tablishing a daily newspaper on
campus in “the near future.”
Plan Endorsed
Several IFC and GOP representa
tives endorse the plan, and indicated
this week that they would cooperate
with Bentley and Griner. Bentley
said an investigating committee will
be formed next week.
The movement grew out of student
government committee reports at a
GOP meeting In Chapel Monday
night. Three committee members
who made a two-day investigation
of the “model” 180-year-old student
government sjfcstem on the North
Carolina campus, voiced favorable
opinions of the Daily Tar Heel.
Dick Blakewood, Savannah, told
the GOP meeting that ho could not
understand why the University Is
unable to finance a daily newspaper.
Create Spirit
Ed Barnum, Valdosta, explained
that The Tar Heel served students
with university news every day,
Griner, who interviewed the Tar
Heel editor, Dick Jenrette, said a
daily newspaper would create more
school spirit and aid In forming a
student government plan.
The daily newspaper would have
a small, professional staff to guide
the student workers, Griner said.
Obtaining printing facilities and
other production items will be work
ed out through the committee.
Regents Sanction Curb
Of Dorm itory Peddlers
At Request of Rogers
Philosophers Fete Dewey
The 90th birthday of John Dew
ey, philosopher and educator, was
celebrated this week by members of
Philosophy Club at a meeting in the
home of Dr. Paul E. Pfeutze, head of
the philosophy department.
Dewey is said to be the nation’s
foremost living philosopher. A sec
tion in the New Republic, Issue of
Oct. 17, contained appraisals of
Dewey and his works, which have
dealt with many phases of philoso
phy, sociology, and education.
Some of Dewey’s best-known con
tributions have been made in the
field of education, where he fathered
the modern progressive education
movement.
Dewey maintained that progres
sive education enables the student
to take an active part in his educa
tion as a thinking individual, rather
than being "regarded as a passive
object to be bombarded with the
three Rs."
Tribute was paid to Dewey by club
members, who read several essays
concerning the noted philosopher's
works.
The meeting was attended by
Philosophy Club members, and stu
dents and faculty members from the
College of Education, and depart
ments of sociology and psychology.

Board Abolishes
A<* Scholarships;
Tee War’ Ended
By Richard Ashworth
A crackdown on dormitory ped
dlers and salesmen was indicated
this week as the board of regents
approved Pres. Jonathan C. Rog
ers’ request to prevent “irregular
and inconvenient” visits by solici
tors in student housing areas.
Included in the restriction meas
ure are ice cream and sandwich
Rollers, dry cleaning ngents, and
magazine salesmen—who have "over
run the campus this fall,” according
to Dr. Rogers' note to the regents.
Meanwhile, the regents Wednesday
also abolished agricultural scholar
ships. called for enforcement of non
resident fee payments, heralded com
pletion of paperwork for a 150-man
dormitory, and rejected money re
quests from tho College of Agricul
ture.
Control of Service*
Authority of University system
units to control types of “wares and
services” offered on their respective
campuses was'granted in an Informal
resolution.
The ruling allows administration
officials to specify the "manner and
extent of solicitation" by agents and
salesmen, and the time and place for
such activity.
Scholarships Dinrontlnned
The regents recommended discon
tinuing of agricultural scholarships
at all University system units, effec
tive In June, 1950. Chancellor Har
mon W. Caldwell explained that
RcholarshlflR have been given by the
College of Agriculture for 16 years
to students entering agriculture as a
vocation.
Chairman Hughes Spalding said
the scholarships were established to
equalize differences between the $59
tuition at the University and the $39
fee at Abraham Baldwin College at
Tlfton, to draw more student* here.
Fee Competition
Recommendation for disesittnuing
the scholarships came after several
regents charged that the nnlts were
going Into competition amonx them
selves by cutting fees."
The regents also adopted a resolu
tion effective summer quarter, 1960,
which will stop out-of-state etndents
from waiving payment of noa-resl-
dent fees for financial reasons.
Completion Pf plans for a $900,000
dormitory, housing 550 etndents, was
announced. Construction win be de
layed until building costs san bs fi
nanced.
The regents denied a request by
Harry J. Brown, dean of the Col-
Dr.
lege of Agriculture, for $24.0(0 to
