Attorney General Says:
The Tribunal b Not Working
By Maxine McNeill
When the administration feels
that a student has violated one of
its laws which are essential for a
good college education,
something has to be done. The
student who violates any of these
laws has to appear before the
Student-Faculty Tribunal.
"The Tribunal, as defined by
the Constitution, is not
functioning," says Phillip
Arterbury, the attorney general
of the Student Courts.
"The tribunal consists of the
SGA president, Ted Mangum, a
representative from the Men's
Council, a representative from
the Women's Council, and other
faculty members.
Arterbury went on to say that
he feels that the communication
Unes between his office and Dr.
Waverlyn Rice's office are
becoming a lot better. Also,
Arterbury said that
understanding between the
faculty and students on the
Tribunal is better.
"The court system," said
Arterbury, "is more efficient."
He added that he was looking
forward to a good working
relationship and a smooth
functioning of the courts this
year. Arterbury said that, in the
past, there has been a question as
•to  whether  or not the judicial
procedure was being carried out
efficiently.
He said that, in past cases,
students claimed that they were
not treated fairly.
It was said by another source
that, in this court system, instead
of a student being innocent, until
proven guilty, the student is
guilty until proven innocent.
.Arterbury said that he and
Rice have communicated on the
matter of whether or not the
students will be granted all rights
due to them under the
constitution. Arterbury said that
he has been assured by Rice that
the students who appear before
the Tribunal will receive fair
proceedings. "I am hopefully
optimistic that this will happen,"
added Arterbury.
Rice, head of the University
Tribunal, would not talk to The
Register. He stated that he had
given The Register all the
information he intends to give
and had nothing else to add.
Four Awards Are Given
For The Loveliest Floats
The Aggies put on a show that thrilled spectators of all ages as they enjoyed a 27-0 win over Md.
Douglas Deserves Recognition
By Nicie Cannon
He has been called "a colorful
figure" but that doesn't begin to
describe the personality of
Emmanuel S. "Jug" Douglas,.
who was recently inducted into
A&T's   Sports Hall of Fame.
"You make vour way," the
former A&T All-America
seriously emphasized to a group
of reporters at the press
luncheon held to honor him and
other former AGGIE standouts.
"I feel that so strongly because
nobody knew me here. I was a
walk on at A & T when they
didn't have many North CaroUna
athletes."
"Jug" walked i n and there
is no doubt that the AGGIE
family was aware of his arrival.
The outspoken Douglas is never
at a loss for words and doesn't
hesitate to give honest answers;
and    candid    opinions    on    all
questions, subjects, and issues.
It's hard to believe that he is also
a poUtician.
"I will be wiUing to lose with
anybody who will do what I tell
him to do than win the
All-America who is going to do
what he wants to do," Jug noted,
giving his general attitude about
coaches and players. He's a
jovial character, forever smiling,
greeting everybody in sight. He
can add a punch line to just
about any statement, with a tone
of voice that's not quite loud
enough to be "rowdy" but
sufficiently loud to give everyone
in the room a chance to enjoy his
witticisms.
' Once you've met the man it is
easy to understand how he could
become an All-America in his
second year at A & T, playing
halfback, fullback, and
quarterback. The versatile
Douglas also played baseball and
that   included    everv    position
except first base.
There's no doubt he deserves
to be in anybody's Hall of Fame.
