The removal of architectural barriers
to handicapped students here "will be
well underway within the next five
years." according to Dr. Thomas A. Stein,
UNC professor of recreation.
Stein said UNC has been given a
planning appropriation from the Diision
of Vocational Rehabilitation of North
Carolina to plan a Comprehensive
Rehabilitation Institute in Chapel Hill.
'The unit will be tied in with the
hospital for in-patient, out-patient, and
student facilities." said Stein, who was
director of the National Program to
l'liminate and Prevent Architectural
Harriers to the Handicapped from ll62

The final plans will be submitted to

"Special equipment will be provided

Stein continued.

Starin, who was asking exemption
from spending another semester in a
dorm, said at the end of the hearing he
asked Associate Dean of Student Affairs
James O. Cansler, chairman of the
committee, if there were any student
members of the group.
"Cansler said there were just three
people on the committee," Starin said.
Starin will receive today the decision
of the committee, made up at his hearing
of Schroeder, Cansler and Dean of Women

His reasons for requesting the

"Everything was positive about our

official action to make future buildings
accessible to the handicapped."
North Carolina was not one of these
states. In 1967, state legislature Rep.
Howard Twiggs (D Wake) introduced a
bill calling for renovations.
"The bill failed," said Stein, "but later
the state building added a handicapped
section to make all buildings intended for

This includes all new campus buildings.
"The problem in this state is that this

According to a letter from Carrier to
Capps. dated May 10. 171. the
chancellor had approved the appointment
of two student members to the
committee to bring it up to the five-man
level.
The student members of the
committee, according to Cansler's letter,
are to be the president of the junior class
and a representative of the opposite sex
of the Residence College Federation
(RCF). Last year, Capps and Cecil Miller
served on the appeals committee.
The expansion of the committee
membership to include students was one
by-product of the Junior Housing
Forum's work last year. Capps was
chairman of that committee.
According to Capps, Hadley
Whittemore, current president of the
junior class, has been to Cansler's office
this semester to ask about the committee.
Whittemore had been told by Cansler
and his secretary he would be notified of
any meetings of the committee, Capps
said.
According to Schroeder, there have
been three meetings of the committee so
far this year. Whittemore has not been
notified of any of the meetings, according
to Capps.
RCF Chairman Steve Saunders said he
had not been informed of any meetings
of the committee and had been informed
by Cansler there would be no meetings of
the committee this fall.
Saunders said he had the intention of
appointing Sheila Wall, governor of King
Residence College, to the RCF spot on
the committee, but he simply had not
been informed of the need to make the
appointment.
Capps said he believes student
representation on this committee is
especially important this year.

renovations by first "taking care of
buildings that can be modified easily,
level curbs and small things that will not
cost much money.
"The attitude of the administration is
positive," he said. "They have a problem
of where to get money, and it is unfair to
blame them for lack of accessibility into
buildings on campus. It costs a lot."
Chapel Hill is now making a guide to
the community for the handicapped
which will include UNC buildings.
"We want to allow handicapped
students to be as independent as
possible," Stein added, "and give them
the opportunity to get around on their
own.
"By integrating the handicapped with
other students, the able-bodied can better
understand and be more realistic in their
relationships with the handicapped."
Defensively the Heels depend on
linebackers John Bunting, Jim Webster,
Terry Taylor and Ricky Packard. Webster
played the game of his life against Duke
and Bunting is deserving of honors he did
not receive.
Bill Brafford, the scholarly defensive
end, and Bud Grissom, the tackle who led
the Heels under the barber's clippers in
mid-season, are the best linemen, and
back Richard Stilley leads a backfield
that has had a roller-coaster season.
The last time Carolina visited the
Gator Bowl, Air Force was a 35-0 victim.
That was eight years ago, and Georgia is a
much better team. Still, Carolina's game
against Duke-an almost perfect
performance-will be good enough to
win.

"The crucial point in making this
decision was that living on campus will

said Robert Kepner, director of
Residence Life.
"Freshmen pass through an
assimilation into University life which the
committee feels will be facilitated by this
informal interaction."
Kepner said present policy gives
automatic permission to live at home to
those students who live within
commuting distance.
CURL made no recommendation on

there is not "sufficient justification to
require uppereiassmen to live on campus
