10 Tha Tar Heel Thursday, June 24, 1971 More fires Fires continue to plague the UNC Campus. A small fire was discovered Sunday, June 20, in the Carolina Union. Another erupted in the new chemistry building on Tuesday, June 22. Sunday's blaze occurred in the first floor men's room in the Carolina Union. It was discovered by Mrs. Elizabeth Brooks, an employe of the Union snack bar, at 10:40 a.m. The fire destroyed two plastic garbage cans and caused minor smoke damage to the walls. The fire in the new chemistry building still under construction occurred on the seventh floor. It was extinguished by workmen who were putting the finishing touches on the building. The chemistry building fire seemed to have been caused by a carelessly tossed cigarette, according to Capt. E.B. Riggsbee of the campus police. Capt. Riggsbee declined to speculate on the possibility of connection between the Student Union fire and the attempted arson of Hanes Hall on June 6. This is the second fire at the Student Union and the third fire, on campus in the past three months. The first fire at the Carolina Union in April caused $30,000 damages.

A JHtlhms (Eloiljmg (Ettpboanl 163 E. Franklin St. Attorney Genera may challenge residency ruling by Lynn Smith Staff Writer A recent Federal court ruling abolishing North Carolina's residency requirements for local elections may be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court by the State Attorney General and the Orange County Board of Elections. Judge Braxton Craven of the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals and U.S. District Judges Eugene A. Gordon and Edwin M. Stanley ruled in favor of UNC Law Professor Thomas J. Andrews and his wife, who filed suit against the County Board of Elections this spring. Professor and Mrs. Andrews moved to Chapel Hill from Boston last July, but were no! allowed to vote in the May 4th municipal elections. The State's voting laws required a year's residency. Following an April hearing on the Andrews suit, Judge Stanley ruled Mr. and Mrs. Andrews could vote in the municipal elections, but the ballots would not be opened until after a final ruling had been handed down. The ballots are still being held in Hillsborough by the County Board of Elections. They will not be opened until a final decision is made on the appeal. The two votes will not affect the outcome of the elections. Lucious Cheshire, attorney for the Elections Board, said Friday that he had conferred with the State Attorney General's office, but no decision had been made concerning an appeal. He speculated that the case would be taken to the U.S. Supreme Court. Alex Brock, executive secretary of the State Board of Elections, announced that he, too, was confident that the ruling would be appealed by the State and that the State would win its case. "Facts seem to indicate that the court might well be in error," Brock said. . He cited the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in December of 1970 on the constitutionality of the Voting Rights Act. "The court affirmed that it is the unalienable right of the state to set its own residency requirements and other prerequisites as far as local elective offices are concerned," Brock said. Brock estimated that 100,000 temporary residents in North Carolina would be affected by the ruling. He said the one-year residency requirement would remain in effect until a ruling is made by a higher court. Mrs. Flo Moody, secretary of the County Board of Elections, does not want the decision of the state court to be appealed. In a statement issued Friday she said, "As a member of the Orange County Board of Elections I, along with the other members of the board, upheld the year's residency requirement in denying the Andrews the right to register to vote. "But now that the court has ruled against the law in local elections, I accept that decision and am in complete agreement with the Andrews. I do not wish the Senate to appeal the suit." jf YOU'LL LIKE WHAT YOU FIND!
