Stray and deserted animals have become
one of the largest urban problems in the
United States. Having been domesticated
and taught to depend on humans for food
and shelter, abondoned pets fall victim to
starvation, disease and accident. In reaction
to these conditions, they often become
community nuisances and hazards.
The Animal Protection Society (APS) of
Chapel Hill is attempting to assume
responsibility for many of the area's needy
animals. Chapel Hill's problem is especially
acute due to the desertion of pets by transient
students and others. Because they have
rarely : been ; spayed or neutered, deserted
animals rapidly increase in number once left
on the street.
APS has about 250 members, of whom
about 40 are considered active. Their work is

APS functions are cat and dog adoption,
lost and found services, spaying and
neutering arrangements, emergency help for
injured, animals and investigation of cruelty
cases. Also, efforts are being made toward
community education and- initiation of
legislation to insure humane treatment of
animals.
Bill Rumpp, chairman of the Welfare
Committee which is now the most active
division of APS, said, "We desperately need
to have an office and a shelter, both to
increase our efficiency and service to the
community and to the animals." He spoke to
of the division of duties in different homes

confusion of keeping records straight when
busines is conducted over the phone.

animal shelter, there is a foster home
arrangement for feeding and boarding.
There are about 25 active foster homes at this
time, and the general opinion is that this is
not the most desirable system. A creature is
held to allow time to seek its owner or to find
it a new home. But foster home people often
become attached to their guests and may not
wish to give up for extermination animals
that are not adopted after a reasonable
period of time. Rumpp feels this sentiment is
understandable but not reasonable, for as
the foster homes fill up with unadopted
animals, new arrivals have no place and are
denied the opportunity of adoption.
"The percentage of animals adopted from
APS is high, at least 90 per cent," Rumpp
says. "There are advantages in adopting
APS animals. They are healthy, having
received distemper shots and, if needed,
some veterinary care.
APS charges an adoption fee of $7 and, in
an attempt to slow future population, the
Society insists that all female cats and dogs
. be spayed.
"I'd like to see the Society extend actions
beyond the immediate things," says APS
president John Macfie. "We need to work on
projects such as abolishing the steel trap."
One of the stated goals of APS is
prevention of cruelty to animals and, as their
"Invitation to Join the Animal Protection
Society" brochure says:

Martha Diefendorf. a student of the UNC
Department of City and Regional Planning,
has been named by Student Body President
Marcus Williams to the post of summer
intern advisor to the UNC Planning Dept.
on the buildingof the new student infirmary.
In assuming the position Miss Diefendorf
cited as her two primary objectives, "to
determine what would best serve the student
needs through study of the present student
health service as compared to an ideal health
service model," and "to devise a mechanism
for effective on-going student participation
in evaluating the uses and needs of the
student health service."
Rachel Long, a planner with the UNC
Department of Operations and Engineering,
said in an interview that "we intend to get a
program statement to the architect sometime
this summer." Long has been working in
conjunction with Diefendorf for several
weeks.
The position of summer intern was created
by a bill passed by the Campus Governing
Council. The bill, introduced by Williams at
the April 1 6 meeting, was an effort to
establish student participation in the health
service planning.
Diefendorf. a 24-year-old Long Island,
N.Y., native, will be on a forty-hour week to
(as stated in the bill) "work with UNC in
designing the plans for the building to house
the new student infirmary.""She has been
hired for 1 2 weeks.
A graduate in psychology from Mount
Holyoke College in Massachusetts,
Diefendorf emphasizes she is not an
architect. "I have spent my first week
studying past student evaluations, the
minutes of the administrative board of the
Student Health Service meetings, and, in.
particular, a study done in March I97l by
the heads of three other university health
programs." The three-man team consisted of
the health directors from Yale, Georgia and
San Fernando Valley State.
Although her work did not officially begin
until May 1 5, Diefendorf attended meetings
with Long with the heads of various

Residence Hall Association President
Mike O'Neal may be forced to resign his
position in the fall due to an inability to find
University housing.
Granville Towers administrators
indicated Thursday that there has been no
change in O'NeaTs position on their waiting
list. He is number 258.
The RHA constitution . stipulates that
executive officers must reside in
undergraduate dorms.
O'Neal, a journalism graduate student,
previously lived in Avery undergraduate
dorm through special permission from the
Housing Department. Dr. James Condie,
director of Housing, discontinued the
permission in April because of tight space
requirements for undergraduates next year.
Granville administrators said O'Neal is in
the lowest category of preference, after
previous residents and incoming freshmen.
However, one administrator noted that in
a few weeks, Mike's poor number may be
meaningless as students find housing
elsewhere and withdraw their applications.

departments at the student health service
including Sports Medicine, Health
Education and Nursing. "My work is a
temporary position, but I don't want it to
have temporary effects," Diefendorf said.
She feels the meetings will be helpful in
t specifying particular needs.
"The two main complaints about the
present infirmary center around waiting time
and waiting conditions," she said, "but I
expect my work to encompass more than
looking for answers to those problems."
Diefendorf said she was not a complaint
board, but she would welcome
recommendations from groups or
individuals.
In working for the student government
this summer, Diefendorf is also fulfilling a
summer work requirement for the
Department of City and Regional Planning.
Her graduation plans will be in keeping with
her current studies, in particular, the areas of
social policy and manpower.. She has
completed one year of a two year program.
Diefendorfs office is in Suite C. and her
hours are nine to five, Monday through
Friday.

There is a possibility that O'Neal will be
aided in his effort to obtain university
housing by the Housing Department. Dr.
Condie's secretary said there had been
special cases in the past in which students
were assisted in receiving housing.
If O'Neal is unable to obtain University
housing, his only alternatives will be to
resign or change the RHA constitution to
permit him to live off-campus. RHA sources
have said a change in the constitution is
unlikely.
