called ftr support of a student subsidized
bus system at its Wednesday night
meeting.
A Student Legislature bill now in
committee would create the subsidy
through a S3. 50 room rent addition per
semester.
Authored by James legislator C layton
WooJard, the bill would create an
October 5 referendum to vote on the
proposed room rent raise.
If the referendum passes and the l!NC
trustees consent, the bus system would
provide unlimited use for all students in
University residence fulls and married
students living in UNC housing.

UNC reserve guard Billy Arnold
remained in critical condition Thursday
afternoon in the intensive care ward at
N.C. Memorial Hospital.
His physician. Dr. Arthur l inn, said
Arnold's condition was "about the
same extremely critical."
Arnold suffered a heat stroke at the
end of practice September f and lias
remained on the hospital's critical list
since.

Any person not in a residence hall,
such as faculty and staff, could buy a
semester pass for S3. 50.
"The student-subsidized bus system
would equalize living conditions in North
and South Campus." said Charlie Miller,
governor of James Residence College. "It
would draw South Campus students to
North Campus and lessen the separation
of the two campuses."
Sheila Wall, governor of King
Residence College, agreed, "i here is an
extreme alienation between the two
campuses that the free has system would
lessen," she said.
"I question if North Campus would
vote for the raise." Joe Crier, governor of
Morrison Residence College, pointed out.
"I'm afraid they might cancel the South
Campus vote for it ."
during the past few days. He added there
has been no substantial change in
Arnold's overall condition.
The physician sjid Arnold lias suffered
"many organ complications and now has
some infection in his lungs. He's being
treated for all of these."
'Things don't look good," Dr. Finn
added, "but then they never have. The
longer he survives, however, the better his
chances."
Arnold is a sophomore from Staten
Island. N.V.

"I do not think it i fair tor students in
South Campus or any part of campus to
have to pay tor a bus svstem on a daily
basis when other Universities are doing
what I propose and coining out with a
better bus sen ice," said Woodard in
explaining his b;!i before the RCF
meeting.
"The present bus system is controlled
to a great extent by the Motor Vehicles
i'und which subsidizes part of the present
system," he added. "We have to operate
it ourselves before it can tie improved."
Woodard would like the bus system to
eventually extend into full campus service
and include Fatgate Shopping (nter
and Universit.. parking lots.
"Faculty, staff and commuters could
park on the outskirts of town and ride to
campus." he said .
Bailey Cobbs. student transportation
commissioner, pointed out the 53.50
room rent raise would onb. v.ii-sdize the
present bus system.

present system would have to come from
a higher fee or high profits." he said.
"Profits would come from
overcrowded buses or from otf-campus
riders." he noted.
Cobbs approved of the bill. "It seems
like the best way to get a belter bus
system," he said. "This is the only
alternative way."
A committee of students, faculty and
administrators would supervise the bus
system, establish routes and administer all
money collected.
The resolution supporting the room
rent raise, drawn up by Miller, v. as passed
unanimously.
"This is the type of thing RCF should
be doing." commented Steve Saunders,
chairman of RCF. "We should definitely
take a stand on this issue."
The bill will be brought up before SL"s
Finance Committee next Wednesday. If
approved, it will go to the SI. floor next
week.

B. A covk Iharsdav presented a new
r--" restructuring state-supported
higher educati n to the Joint Senate and
H.'.-a - j ILd-.er Education. Committee :n
Raleigh.
Ay cock's plan calls for a strong
governing board with budget and program
on:r .I over all 16 institutions of higher
education, with boards of trustees for
eah campus and desconsolidation of the
University system .
"Higher education is the only area in
ta:e government where the General
Assembly still makes specific
appropriations for specific uses." he said
m an interview following his testimony.
"The General Assembly delegates that
authority to someone more
knowledgeable in every other area of
state finances," he added.
Aycock called for making each head
the "president" of his campus.
"I said that so there wouldn't be any
doubt - President Friday could just move
in to be head of the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill," he explained.
The proposed restructuring plan, third
proposed to the Committee this week,
received a good reception from the
legislators, according to United Press
International.
The joint chairmen of the committee
were not enthusiastic about the proposal
but did believe a strong governing board
would 'win support from the entire
corn mi t tee.
Aycock called for establishment of a
Commissioner of Higher Education to
head the central state board and join ghe
Governor's cabinet.
"This full-time official would be the
spokesman for the business of higher
education in North Carolina," he said in a
wire i e port.
Aycock said following the hearing he
felt President Friday might decide to seek
the Commissioner post. The provision for
Friday to take over the head of Chapel
Hill campus was not designed to preclude
a try for the position, he said.
"Nobody would be out of a job under
my proposal - not even any trustee,"
Aycock explained.
