'"We won both times, but it wasn't just a case of taking the floor and winning." The Owls are coached by former Vanderbilt assistant Don Knodel. They were 14-12 overall last year and tied for fifth in the Southwest with a 6-8 mark.

Andrews announced Wednesday his candidacy for the 4th District U.S. Congressional seat which is now held by Nick Galifianakis. "I feel as though the students and young people of Orange and Chatham counties have been left out of the decision-making process in our state legislature," Tripodi. a Democrat, said at a noon press conference in the Student Union. "I think now that we have the 18-year-old vote young people and students deserve representation in the legislature," he added. Tripodi said he thinks he is qualified, as a resident of this district and as a student, to represent all the people of this district inclusive of the University and its students rather than exclusive as it has been in the past. Tripodi, 21, a political science major, plans to attend law school. He has been a resident of Orange County for two and a half years. He termed himself a "liberal The Owls have enough inside strength to compete for their cc.iferer.ee title th year. They have 6-10 Mark Wehrle.

The replacements will probably be 6-2 Don Snyder, 5-1 1 Dan McGuire and 6-2 Scott Fisher.

Dance competition is expected in such areas as ring-around-the-rosie and Hava Nagela. Prizes will include old Spike Jones and XavierCugat recordings. "Weather permitting," King Nyle said, "we will have a piano in the Pit and trumpeters on the roof of the Student Store. We're also asking people to bring their own musical instruments and food. "The society editors from the Durham Morning Herald's women's news section will definitely attend. In all, we're expecting attendance of 40.000 as a conservative estimate, 60.000 liberals, and 49.5 thousand middle-of-the-roaders. Democrat" but said he will not have a "se? leaning on every issue." "I want to do what is best for Chatham and Orange counties." he said, "and I would not and will not hesitate to align myself with either liberals or conservatives to get what is best, or what is needed, in this district." His immediate concerns are the impact of UNC on Orange Count and the industrial development in the two counties. Tripodi said. He added. "The state should shoulder some of the burden placed on Orange County related to the tax-exempt University's being here. "I would also welcome industries coming to Orange and Chatham, but only if they are willing to spend what would be necessary to abide by federal and local environmental protection regulations." He expressed hopes citizens will realize a young person running for office "doc not mean we are trying to take over or disrupt the political svstem. but rather we are responsible, concerned and willing to work and get involved now that we have the right to vote." Tripodi said he realizes he will need more money than other candidates because he is not as well known. He said he had financial backing but would r.ot name his backers.

"W e're not necessarily out to impeach him (Gilliam)." said Randy Crittenton. a Morrison senator. "But this recall election would give people a chance to put him back in office or support someone else." A letter addressed to Elections Board Chairman Larry Lggert and accompanied by a copy of the recall petition was signed by Crittenton, Joe Grier. governor of Morrison, and Janette Steenhuis. speaker of the Morrison Senate. Gilliam, Morrison representative, chairman of the Publications Board and member of Student Legislature's (SL) Rules Committee, said he had not seen a copy of the petition and cannot respond "until I have determined what, if any, charges they have made against me." "1 have not been confronted by any of these persons," Gilliam said. "They have not attempted to inform me of any reasons for taking this action." Crittenton said under SL procedure the Elections Board must verify the text of the petition within five days and "we will be able to circulate the petitions in Morrison starting next Monday." Signatures from 25 percent of the questioned official's constituency - 150 names for Morrison dormitory - are required to effect a recall election, according to SL statutes. "Ironically, the SL recall procedure was authored by Gilliam himself," Crittenton said. He said the recall action against Gilliam was "literally a grass roots issue within Morrison." "A lot of people have been observing that Gilliam is a leading figure in turning SL into a circus," Crittenton added. "And a lot of people are tired of seeing student enterprises and the making of TODAY: Variable cloudiness and continued cold; high in the low 40s: low in the 30s; probability of precipitation 10 per cent today and 20 per cent tonight. support for his candidacy and said he has some backing with the Democratic party in Orange County. He said he will begin active campaigning during the Christmas holidays. "I'm not going to campaign just in Chapel Hill, Carrboro and part of Chatham County," he said. "I want to cover all parts of both counties. "I want to stress unity and progress."' he sajj. "By progress I mean getting better, not especially by growth, but by improvement." He stressed the need for "voung, new politicians to work within the system." "Students haven't had the necessary voice in attacks on them," Tripodi said. He cited the tuition raise for out-of-state students and charges against The Daily Tar Heel as examples of instances when students were not represented in the legislature. He said a major reason tor entering the race was "to cause voung people to go out and get involved in anv one's election."

He said Gilliam's actions on the Publications Board and concerning SG-sponsored refrigerator rentals indicate such an atitude. Crittenton said he knew of no specific student who planned to oppose Gilliam, but "some people have expressed an interest.' He said he anticipated no problem in Police arrest 20 for Ayden protest by United Pres International GRLLN VILLI: - A third day of attempting to march without a permit resulted Wednesday in the arrest of 20 blacks.
