National win changes tryout policy
Varsity cheerleaders earn
automatic return to squad

Last week, it was decided that for the first
time ever, members of the varsity
cheerleading squad who are not graduating
in May will be allowed to return to next
year's squad automatically. In former years,
veteran cheerleaders were required to try out
for the team along with non-team members.
The cheerleaders were given the automatic
return as a reward for winning the National
Cheerleading Championship. Dorothy
Gunnells, faculty adviser for the UNC
cheerleaders, said Wednesday. "This was
done solely as a bonus to this year's
cheerleaders," Gunnells said, "and 1 feel that
if they are good enough to win the national
championship, they are good enough to get
back on the UNC cheerleading squad
without going through tryouts again."
The change of policy this year is an
exception to the rule, and the cheerleaders
next year will have to compete to get back on
the squad, Gunnells said. "I think the old
policy is a really good one," she said. "1 think
it's important that the tryouts are set up
where talent comes first, and we'll be going
back to the old policy next year unless next
year's squad wins the national championship
again."
Cathy McDowell, head cheerleader for
the 1977-78 varsity squad, said the
cheerleaders had received no indication
prior ro the tryouts that the policy would be
changed.
"Personally I think what's being done
this year is a good thing," McDowell said.
"All the cheerleaders put in a lot of time and
work, and they deserve to be back on the
squad, but they had nothing to do with the
policy change."
Another policy change made for the
cheerleading tryouts this year is that all
persons competing for the team, will do so
under the supervision of a former varsity
cheerleader, McDowell said. "Before, all the
tryouts were allowed to choose the person
they wanted to work with, but this way, we'll
know the tryouts are getting good training
and old cheerleaders are not as likely to mess
someone up," she said.
"I want to stress that cheerleading tryouts
are just like any other type of tryouts,"
McDowell added. "There's going to be a lot
of raised eyebrows and people asking
questions about the fairness of the tryouts.
There's going to be hard feelings no matter
who is chosen."
Returning from the 1977-78 cheerleading
squad are: Vicki Marmarose, Heidi
Behrends, Kim Cline, Mary Ann Shoas,
Winnie Lyles, Brantley Peck, Bill Nicholson.
Ross Coppage, Bob Fussell and Reb
Thomas.
Other members of the 1978-79 squad will
be: Leslie Smith, Tibby Thomas, Lisa
Yount, Charlie Lorant, Tim Lucido and Jeff
Mott.

County to absorb local collection
B CAROL MANNER
Staff Writer
Carrboro aldermen endorsed a proposal 'Tuesday night to
consolidate town and county tax-collection systems.
Under the tax collection proposal. Orange County would
operate collections for Carrboro and Chapel Hill, as well as
for county taxes.
The three bodies now have separate tax collection systems.
Carrboro and Chapel Hill residents must mail separate checks
to different addresses to pay town and county taxes.
For walk-in payments, residents must now make town
payments at Town Hall and county payments in
Hillsborough.
The Carrboro aldermen directed Town Manager Richard
Knight to begin negotiations with the county on a formal
agreement for administration of the system.
Assistant Town Manager Phillip Whitaker said he hopes
the system can be arranged in time to process 1978 taxes in
August.
I he new system should save Carrboro approximately
$3.()(M). Whitaker said, but the savings w ill be offset for two or
three years by the cost of implementing a computer system.
This would link Carrboro to the county computer and allow
up-to-date accounting of paid taxes.
In other action, the aldermen authorized their
representatives on a joint Chapel Hill-Carrboro Recreation
Study Commission to stop work temporarily.
Doris Muriell. one of Carrboro's three commission
members asked for the break to ease strained relations with
Chapel Hill's representatives. She said representatives from
the towns have been working toward different goals and that
tension had built up.
Aldermen amend ordinance

A resolution amending the noise control
ordinance which will allow the town's chief
of police to grant special permits for groups
to exceed noise limits was adopted Monday
night bythe Chapel Hill Board of Aldermen.
The resolution, prepared by Town
Manager Kurt J. Jenne and Town Attorney
Emery B. Denny, establishes guidelines for
the police chief to follow when considering
permit requests such as:
The hardship on the applicant versus
the hardship on those affected.
The possibility of increased cultural
enjoyment and awareness on the part of
residents.
Annual events of social and cultural
importance to residents.
Alderman Robert Epting said he was
concerned with the wording of the
resolution. Specifically inclusion of the
phrase "increased cultural awareness and
enjoyment."
"The problem, it seems to me, is that you

Mountemeering 1 is a skill
of timing as well as tech;
nique. The wrong
moment, like the
wrong method,
marks the gap
between ' w
amateur and
aficionado. So the
key to successful mountaineer
ing is to choose the occasions
wisely and well. When, then, is
it appropriate to slowly qi
the smooth, refreshing
mountains of Busch Beer?
Celebrations, of course,
are both expected and ex
cellent opportunities to
test your mountaineering
mettle. Indeed, on major
holidays it is virtually
mandatory
to do so.

Sunilarly, the ambience
of an athletic afternoon (e.g.
The Big Game) is another
ideal moment. Downing

are placing a great deal of responsibility in
t he hands of t he chief of police," Epting said.
"1 think that if you have limits you should
have limits."
Interliaternity Council President Tom
Terrell concurred with Epting's statement.
'The important thing is that the chief of
police still does not have to give the permit,"
Terrell said. "For example, if there are two
or three parties in close proximity, he will use
his discretion as to who to give the permit
to."
Marvin Silver, noise commission member,
said, "I think the comments that Mr. Epting
made demonstrate the resolution's
subjectivity. But the present ordinance is
even more subjective and arbitrary. The
existing noise ordinance is completely
untenable."
But Silver said the resolution makes the
noise ordinance more in keeping with
Environmental Protection Agency
guidelines and the guidelines of othertowns.
