Dorm sign-up to start soon
by Elizabeth Swaringsn
Staft Writer
The random-selection method of room sign-up
will be used to determine who will be assured space
in University housing for the 1977-78 academic
year, the Housing Department announced
Thursday.
While the process will be the same as last year,
this year the students will be required to pay a $75
prepayment rather than $50, as in past years.
According to Peggy Gibbs, assistant to the
director for housing contracts, the $25 increase
resulted from suggestions by the newly formed
Housing Advisory Board. The faculty-student
group was formed last fall to offer suggestions for
improving the University's residential programs.

"The idea was to make students take a serious
interest in living in University housing," Gibbs
said. "We're trying to give people more incentive
to cancel their contracts early if they are
contemplating canceling at all. That way we can
get the students off the waiting lists sooner."
Of the $75 prepayment, $25 will be credited to
fall semester rent and the remaining $50 to spring
semester. The entire $75 will be refunded to
applicants who cancel prior to being assured of
housing.
Students assured of housing at the time of sign
up and canceling before June 15 will receive a $25
refund. Student assured of housing and canceling
after June 15 will forfeit the entire $75.
While not without its shortcomings, the
random-selection method (drawing names out of a
box) at least eliminates the need for lines. The
benefits of having no lines make the random
selection procedure more desirable than any other
the department can perceive, according to Gibbs.
"We're fully convinced our system is the best for
Carolina," Gibbs said.
Gibbs noted that the results of a survey
conducted among other Southern universities
with enrollment over 10,000 were considered in
determining the optimal procedures for Carolina
students.
"A lot of schools give priority to upperclassmen.
but then those schools don't require that freshmen
live in a dorm their first year as we do here," Gibbs
said. ' . , '
1 n order to provide the number of spaces needed
for the incoming freshmen class, quotas,
established on an individual dorm basis, limit the
number of present residents who can return to
their building the next year.
"The quotas must be established on a per-dorm
basis so that every student has the same
opportunity to return regardless of how many
students are returning," Gibbs said. Of the 6,528
spaces available in University housing, 56 per cent
must be allowed for returning students.

Will
scalp
ing be legal?
mm
State Sen. William G. Smith, D-New
Hanover, has introduced a bill which would
make it legal to sell tickets to athletic events
privately at prices higher than the normal
value. The bill easily won committee
approval Tuesday morning and goes to the
floor for a vote today.
The law would make it legal to "scalp"
tickets to athletic events.
"All it does is repeal the law that makes it a
misdemeanor to sell a ticket to an athletic
event at a higher price than normal," Smith
said Tuesday.
He said he did not know what chances the
bill has on the floor but said that the bill
received strong support in the committee.
Smith said he wanted to repeal the law
againsf scalping because Att. Gen. Rufus
Edmisten had told Smith that it is virtually
immpossible to enforce the present law
against scalping, which was passed in 1 94 1.
Nobody could be reached to confirm a
story that has circulated behind the scenes in
the legislature, but rumor has it that the
original law was passed in 1941 after a group
of legislators attending a Wake Forest-N . C .
State basketball game were unable to get
tickets beforehand and were forced to buy
from student scalpers.
Upset at this inconvenience and extra
expense, the lawmakers decided to make the
practice illegal.

Ten dollars is cheap for a football ticket to the Notre Dame game. Prices for tickets to
the ACC Basketball Tournament have been scalped for more than $100, a practice
which the Legislature may make legal for the first time in 36 years.
Important dates for housing
Students presently living on campus
should remember the following dates if they
wish to live in University housing next year:
BSM backs Moss, Fulwood
February 28 Room to Live books
with housing application-contracts and
submission cards are available in residence
halls.
March 17 Applications and
submission cards must be turned in to
residence directors by 6 p.m. Prepayments of
$75 must be made to the University Cashier.
March 24 Preliminary drawing for
students wishing to change buildings will be
held in the Housing Office at 10:00 a.m. Lists
of those selected will be posted afterward.
March 29 General random drawings
for return to present residence hall will be
held in each hall where returning students
exceed the quota at a time announced by the
residence director. Students may observe the
drawing, and lists will be posted afterward.
April 5- Random drawing to
determine position on central waiting list
will be held in the Housing Contracts Office.:
Contracts will be filed numerically until
assignments can be made.
April 12 Room assignments will be
mailed to confirm room assignment and
inform students of rent due dates.
The Black Student Movement (BSM)
endorsed Bill Moss for student body
president and Sam Fulwood for Daily Tar
Heel editor Monday night following a
meeting with the candidates.
"We considered him (Moss) to be very
realistic in what he had to say," said Allen
Johnson, BSM Central Committee member
and editor of Black Ink. Johnson said
candidates have a tendency to bend over
backward trying to please the BSM.
"Moss was very honest and
straightforward," Johnson said.
Johnson also said Moss' proposal to
organize students on existing committees
appealed to BSM members.
In endorsing editors, Johnson said there
were two well-qualified candidates, Greg
Porter and Sam Fulwood.
"We were particularly impressed with
Sam's idea of a sixth issue," Johnson said.
He added that the BSM felt that the
expanded beat system Fulwood proposes
would be beneficial to the organization.
The endorsements were determined by a
vote of the BSM Central Committee.
Correction
The Daily Tar Heel incorrectly
reported Tuesday that Robert Lyman,
Blue Sky Party candidate for Student
Body President, had made proposals that
were self-admittedly not serious. Lyman
maintains that he is just as serious about
his platform as the other candidates are
about theirs.

Wants NCSU ticket system
Mason in running for CAA
Gary Mason, a candidate for president of
the Carolina Athletic Association (CAA)
could not be reached for comment Monday,
and therefore, his campaign platform was
not included in the Daily Tar Heel article
Tuesday.
West Minton and David Royle are also
running for CAA president.
Mason, a junior history and political
science major from Rocky Mount, says he
will work to change the UNC basketball
ticket-distribution system if he is elected.
Mason said the present system for
distributing tickets is unfair and should be
modeled after the alphabetical system used
at N.C. State University. Faculty members
also would be given tickets under this
system, he said, adding that the ticket
allotments for alumni would not be changed.
Under his proposed system, each student
would be guaranteed tickets to at least three
home games, one of which would be a major
big four contest.
Mason says he will also work to increase
the funding and facilities for both women's
and club sports. He also plans to preserve
homecoming and says he will keep regular
office hours to keep in contact with students.
