Water consumption for
Tuesday, Oct 8 was 3.14
million gallons, an increase of
.561 million gallons compared
Monday's consumption of
s.579 million gallons.
J.A. Branch, of the
University business office,
warned students and
townspeople that the need for
water conservation is just as
important now as before.
"For some reason, people
are not being as careful with
water usage as they have
been." Branch stressed the
importance of using discretion
when turning on the faucet
Branch said the water level
at University Lake was 93
inches below the spillway on
Wednesday. He added that the
pipeline is expected to be
completed by October 24.
"Our portion of
construction is on schedule.
Durham is being most
cooperative in completing their
part of the pipeline. The city
of Durham is treating the
construction as an emergency
situation. We appreciate their
cooperation very much."
Branch said the 12-inch
section of pipe will be
completed by Thursday
evening except for one portion
at the New Hope Creek.
The pipe being used is made
of cement and asbestos which
is durable and strong when
buried underground. This type
pipe will not support itself over
the creek bed, however.
The University has ordered
several 50 foot lengths of steel
pipe to bridge the creek. This
steel pipe is expected to arrive '.
on October 19.
Thursday, workmen will
begin to drive steel pilings into
the creek banks in preparation
for the ordered steel pipe.
Except for this section
across New Hope Creek,
workmen will have completed
2.7 miles of 12-inch pipe by
Thursday.
Construction is also
progressing on the eight-inch
sections of pipe which will
connect the 12-inch section
with University Lake. A half
mile has been completed, with
approximately two miles left

Commissioners reacted with
total dismay to the
announcement by the
University water plant that
bulk water rates for Carrboro
are going up 40 percent .
The Board, meeting
Tuesday night, was told by
City Manager Bill Britt that the
"cw oi 35 cents

cuecuve irom October 1.
The University, which owns
the water facilities, sells the
water in bulk to the town of
Carrboro, which in turn resells
it to Carrboro residents. The
price hike will have to be
passed on to the residents,
although the Board decided to
postpone that decision until
later.
Britt noted that the costs to
the University to process and
distribute the water were only
23 cents per thousand gallons.
"I do not feel it is right for the
University to make a profit off
our water," he said.
The matter was previously
approved by the Board of
Trustees, and a rate increase
was levied on Chapel Hill
residents starting July 1.
Chapel Hill's increase,
however, amounted to only a

and 27. Grey Culbreth, because the

town of Carrboro is considered
a bulk user of water and gets a
lower price.
Culbreth insisted the price
hike was to allow sufficient
capital to develop to improve
facilities.
Meanwhile, the Board
decided to send a delegation
composed of Britt and other
members of the Carrboro
Public Works Committee to see
University officials, and then,
if necessary, to talk to the
Trustees in an effort to have
the rate hike withdrawn.
"We are a community of
hourly workers," noted Britt,
"and a 40 per cent jump in
water fees would mean quite a
lot"
The action comes,
coincidentally, in the midst of
the worst drought the area has
faced
from
in 30 years. A pipeline
Durham is expected to
ease the situation at its
completion in about two
weeks, and two million gallons
of Durham's water will be
available to the area.
Both Britt and Culbreth
indicated that Durham will
charge the University in the
neighborhood of 15 cents per
thousand gallons for the water.

A presidential candidate,
vice-presidential nominee,
South African exile, and
authority on the Black Muslims
will all be at UNC next week.
Black Revolt-Impact on
You, a racial dialogue
sponsored by the YMCA, will
begin Sunday, Oct. 13 with the
film "Black Like Me," and will
be highlighted by speeches
during the rest of the week by
Julian Bond, Eldridge Cleaver,
Gladstone Ntlabti and Eric
Lincoln.
The movie "Black Like Me"
is based on the book by John
Howard Griffin. It depicts the
true story of a white man who
changed the pigment of his
skin to find out how it feels to
be a Negro in a white man's
world.
The movie will be shown at
5:00 and 7:00 p.m. Sunday,
Oct. 13 in Carroll HalL There
will be a discussion period
following the second showing
in which all students are
invited to take part.
Julian Bond will speak on
"The Political History of
Racism" at 8:00 p.m. Monday,
Oct. 14 in Memorial HalL
Bond recently received
nation-wide attention at the
Democratic National
Convention by making a
seconding speech for Eugene
McCarthy, for his
responsibility for the seating of
the Georgia Loyalist delegation
and by being nominated for
vice-president as the 'wave of
the future'.
Bond is presently a member
of the Georgia House of
Representatives. He was
elected to the Georgia House
twice, in 1965 and again in
1966, to a seat created under
new apportionment He was
prevented from taking his seat
by members of the House who
opposed his dovish stand on
Vietnam.
After being elected a third
time by an 80 percent
. majority, Bond presented, his
case to the U.S. Supreme
Court, which ruled
unanimously that the Georgia
House must seat him.

session.
Gladstone Nlabati, exiled
from South Africa since 1964,
will speak on the relationship
between the Africa Revolt and
the American Nego Revolt at
8:00 p.m. in Gerrard Hall on
Tuesday Oct. 15.
Nlabati has personally
suffered from the extreme
racism prevalent in South
Africa, a sentiment he feels is
very similar to the racism
existing in American society
today.
Nlabati was arrested in
South Africa in September
1963 under the Suppression of
Communism act for his
involvement in the African
National Congress of South
Africa.
Believing the plight of the
black people in South Africa
and in the American South to
be one, Nlabati came to
America to work toward
furthering the cause of blacks
in America.
He is now writing a doctoral
thesis on the ethical
jurisdiction for violent
n
revolution in South Africa.
Eldridge Cleaver,
Presidential candidate of the
Peace and Freedom Party,
Minister of Information of the
Black Panther Party and
managing editor of Ramparts
magazine will speak at 8:00
p.m. in Hill Hall on Saturday
Oct. 19.
Cleaver has long been a
spokesman of militant Black
America. His autobiography,
"Soul On Ice," which he wrote
during a 9-year prison sentence
describes the violent youth
encountered by many black
youths and In the book he tries
to give an insight into why he
lived this kind of life and how
he came to see its
pointlessness.
Eric Lincoln, an authority
on the Black Muslims, will
speak at 8:00 p.m. in the
Wesley Foundation Sunday
Oct. 20.
One of the basic appeals of
the Black Muslims, according
to Lincoln, is that they
represent and speak for many
of the basic forces in urban
Negro life.
Lincoln spent this summer
in Africa where he lectured,
traveled and observed the racial
patterns of Africa and their
relation to the American
Negro's situation.
of four UNC students injured in a
accident Tuesday night remained in
condition Wednesdav afternoon and
another was still in the intensive care ward with
severe injuries.
The injured students are Kevin Henke,
Katherine Bowman, David Olney, and Lois
Miller.
Henke, who was apparently driving the car
at the time of the accident, had a "poor" day
Wednesday according to North Carolina
Memorial Hospital officials and remained in
critical condition in the 'nensiv car ward.
Miss Bowman, who was riding in the front of
the automobile with Henke, also remained in
the intensive care ward. Officials said she had a
"fair" day.
Mis- Miller remained in the hospital in
satisfactory condition, and Olney was
transferred to the student infirmary, apparently
in good condition.
. The accident occur ed at about , 11:30
Tuesday night on the Pittsboro Road between
Morgan's Creek and the King William
Restaurant
One of the first persons to arrive at the scene
of the accident was Dr. Mark Hilberman, whose
home is located very near the scene.
Dr. Hilberman said that a number of other
persons stopped at the scene and helped to pull
the students from the demolished automobile.
He said that Olney and Miss Miller did not
seem to be seriously injured but that Miss Miller
was hysterical.
Henke was bleeding profusely, according to
Dr. Hilberman, and was suffocating from blood
running into his lungs. He said that the injured
student's vital functions ceased to operate at
one point before he reached the hospital and he
had to be resucitated.
No sign of the accident remained Wednesday
afternoon except for tire marks and two strips
of chrome and a broken signpost still lying in
the ditch by the side of the road.
The tire marks indicated that the automobile
apparently failed to negotiate the sharp curve,
crossed the opposite lane, crashed through two
reflector signs, and carrie to rest in the ditch.
The reflector signs were facing in the
opposite direction from which the automobile
was coming. There were no reflectors facing in
-the other direction. -
The posts had been replaced this morning,
and the wrecked car had been removed.

Scholarship
Center of the
is publishing a
Southern High
be sent to the
admissions of
colleges all over the nation.
The guide concerns
integrated high schools in the
South who desire a college
admission representative to
visit their schools.
The basic purpose of the
project is to overcome the
"information gap" that
presently exists in many parts
of the South. Basic
information on scholarships,
financial assistance and loans is
not readily available to Negro
high school students many o&
whom are thinking about
college and university study.
Others have not considered this
a viable alternative partly
because of lack of information
and encouragement
Edith Rankin YWCA
chairman for the Scholarship
Information Center, said
"Until lately students have had
to work on their own; we want
the colleges to shoulder their
part of the burden. Right now
we're trying to increase interest
among the students since our
work is done by volunteers,
and we need more students to
help."
According to Norman
Gustaveson, director of the
YMCA, "The project began
when several Northern schools
requested our assistance in
helping them recruit black
students.
"With the guide we hope to
' help schools who are interested
to get better use out of their
recruiting programs in the
South," Gustaveson said.
Final publication date for
the guide is set for Friday with
copies being sent to over 500
colleges across the country.
In addition to the guide sent
to the colleges, the committee
also distributes a booklet
entitled College Opportunities
for Southern Negro Students.
This booklet is sent to
guidance counselors and
students in black and
underprivileged areas.
"Black high schools have
been neglected and poverty
ridden due to neglect by both
the state and local school
boards. WTe are trying to
compensate for the neglect
that the black schools have
received all these years,"
Gustaveson said.
"When we started, we found
many scholarships for the
underprivileged that were going
unused year after year because
students just didn't know
about them. WTe had a black
student request information
about scholarships, and we
found out that his counselor
didn't even know that they
existed. So we have compiled
this information in an attempt
to inform these students of the
opportunities that exist"
Gustaveson continued.
"Much college recruiting is
done on an informal basis, by
alumni. Most of this isn't
available to the black student
since they had absolutely no
contact with the white schools.
Their only informal and often
only formal contact has been
with the black schools," said
Gustaveson.
The office of the
Scholarship Information
Centre receives mail daily
requesting scholarship
information and assistance.
Miss Rankin said," We have
people writing us constantly
saying that were their last
hope. WTe received a letter the
other day from a guidance
counselor thanking us and
telling us that many of her
students have gotten assistance
through the information in our
booklet"
Many Northern schools are
now accepting black students
on an assigned risk program.
"Temple, Vassar, UCLA and
Berkley now have programs
where they accept black
students which normally
wouldn't be accepted because
they feel that the black
students have academic
potential but have received
none of the advantages of a
proper education," Gustaveson
said.
The Scholarship
Information Centre has
received orders for books from
all over the world. The
