2Th3 Dally Tcr HcdFridav, September 5, 1C30 ; . wS id s i O' ' 9 wwTmwS 'WwJ Vy MARK AN CON A . Staff Writer A r.rw type of bank card fraud has been detected in some parts of the nation and area security officials are try!r!3 to prevent it from spreading to this part of the country, said LIU Hayes, vice president and manager of fraud centre! at Wachovia Dank of North Carolina. The rehems involves fraudulent u:e of bank cards in th; 24-hour bank machines many banks have adapted. -The misuse results frcra a person's celling a bank card hcld:r and informing the holder he has won a prize. The calkr then asks for the holder's card number for identification purposes and uses the identification number for unauthorized charges against the bank card "We work very closely with fraud people... to solve problems and discuss security," Hayes said. .Gary Holmes, manager of Wachovia Bank in Chapel Hill, said most fraud tends to start in the large cities in the North, like New York and Chicago. Officials in the South are then alerted in order to prevent the crime in their own region. "If something happens in 'one part of the country, then the rest cf the ccuntry gears up and gets ready for it," Hayes slid. The result of this preparation creates a manageable situation in North Carolina and South Carolina, Hayes added. Hayes said the International Association of Credit 1 ft: - t f1 m w Card Investigators cf North Carolina and South Carolina also helps prevent credit card fraud. The organization includes all issuers of credit cards in the' Carolina. ' ' Hayes said he and a staff of 1 1 men place a great amount of emphasis on detection and prevention. " - Holmes said the best solution to the crime would be .. prevention. Holmes also said consumers should keep their four-digit code numbers to themselves and under no circumstances should they reveal it. The four-digit code number is used by the consumer to make a transaction with the 24-hour bank machine. "There is supposedly no way to use the machine if the person doesn't know the four-digit code, he said. . From pega 1 jpl j ? ttr. jr ! r t 1 1 t WASHINGTON (AP) The Federal Election Commission gave John B. Anderson's independent presidential candidacy a big boost Thursday by ruling that he may become eligible for f 1 r 1 fianmX fwwrwy The commission's decision was critical to Anderson's ability to compete with President Jimmy Carter and Republican nomines Ronald Reagan in the late stc:s cf the 1SZD election campaign. ' Ey a 5-1 vote, the commission decided that Anderson, although he is running as v Independent, has the support' of 'a national organization which .is the functional ' equivalent of a ' political Federal law says that any party nominee who gets 5 percent of the presidential vote b entitled to a share of federal funds after the general election b November. The law provides no specific amount that the Republican congressman from Illinois would receive, but under a complicated formula which" includes the votes Reagan and Carter get in the election, Anderson could pick up more than $20 million, depending cn the outcome cf the voting. The ruling also will enable Anderson to borrow substantial sums of campaign money from private sources with the assurance cf repayment using federal funds payable after the election. . Although the law does not provide such federal subsidies for independent candidates, the commission concluded that Anderson might still benefit from ,: the financing provisions; V, :, ; .. .. . "The commission therefore concludes that Mr. Anderson would not be excluded from receiving post-election public funds as a candidate of a new party ... if he receives 5 percent or more cf the total popular votes cast for president in the 1SC0 general election," the commission said in an advisory opinion issued to the Anderson campaign. recruiting year in the history of the school.

Season tickets or.lyl The Blue-White basketball game is scheduled for later that day, followed by the traditional festivities of Homecoming.'' One of the marketing principles -behind the "Carolina Fever" campaign is to stimulate the desire for UNC football tickets based on their potential scarcity. This year, Savod had to cut back some on the promotional program or face a possible ticket shortage. "This year we eliminated some of the budget by cutting direct mail," Savod said. "We felt that with everything that was going for us, we could do that. One half of the direct-mail season ticket orders would have gone unfulfilled, perhaps two-thirds. Anticipation is very important. "During the past several years, due to the increasing difficulty of getting Cans From p2Q3 1 playing a numbers game," Harlow said. "The same unsubstantiated theory is put forward time and time again to discredit Jordan and every test ever done on it." Harlow said water quality of the Jordan Reservoir would be equivalent' to that cf John H. Kerr Reservoir, which supplies Henderson,. "Jordan was designed and built to supply water to this area of the state," he said. "Now we need to reap the benefits of this project instead of setting a precedent that will allow every local politician and contractor to build their own pork-barrel reservoir on every local watershed." Charles P. Wolf, a sociology professor from the Polytechnic University of New York, concluded the CCA presentation, calling the draft EIS to task for failing to take adequate account of "environmental and social consequences of habitat destruction and community disruption." Wolf condemned the OWASA speakers' V pious utterances," and, in deferences to OWASA's initial procedural blunders in acquiring the Cane Creek property, added, "OWASA is not a trusted institution. They have been ignorant and arrogant in handling this, and their, promises are not credible." ii 'Mine r.Hiu ... . il- IS? 41 Ycu den't have to know how to prolan to net all the benefits cvdlabla with a TI Prrjrcmrr.'bb.

That has boosted funds for the Educational Foundation. I look at my job with the primary responsibility of promctiens," Savod said. "Inflation has eroded our ability to make the budget, so we have to be aware of making new sources cf revenue. As it relates to football and ticket sales, our goal is to continue to generate strong interest in Carolina football to where demand for tickets exceeds supply. Then we can recommend expansion cf Kenan Stadium and generate more revenue. " I see no reason that by the year 1 990, considering that the football program continues to be successful, we should have the capacity to put 65,000-75,000 people in Kenan.' ; . . Savod admits the improvement of the caliber of football in the Atlantic Coast Conference has affected the results of the Carolina Fever campaign. "ACC football was improving considerably before I got here," he said. "One of the reasons was EiU Docley. He built a successful and sound program at Carolina. It .takes one institution or coach to get the ball rolling. "In terms of attendance, our promotions program has been emulated by other schools including N.C. State, who publicly and privately said they would not promote their football." . Supporters of Carolina football who have waited until now to purchase 'tickets for this season's games should consider the final sentence of most "Carolina Fever" promotions. ' "There's no cure once the last seat is sold." WASHINGTON (AP) The government wilKwam pregnant women to curtail cr stop drinking coffee, tea end ecles because of a possible link between caffeine in such beverec.es and birth defects, agency officials said The ecency has found, however, thet evidence linking caffeine to human birth defects is inconclusive, the officials said. The warning will be officially issued Thursday by Feed and Drug Administration Commissioner Jere Goyan. It will stop short of rcquirir.j warning labels cn products like coffee, tea and ccla drinks, which all contain caffeine, FDA spokesman Wayne Pines said. The agency will require the industry to conduct further studies in cn effort to determine conclusively whether caffeine poses an imminent health problem for pregnant women. Jordan released from N.Y. hospital , NEW YORK (AP) National Urban League President Vernon Jordan checked out of a Manhattan hospital Thursday, more than three months after he was shot by a sniper in a parking lot in Fort Wayne, Ind. Jordan walked out cf New Ycrk Hospital-Cornell Medical Center and returned to his Manhattan home at about 9:30 a.m., according to Jim Williams, a spokesman for the Urban League. He said the 45-year-old black leader's "spirits are upbeat now' adding that Jordan hoped to return to work within a matter of days. Jordan was transferred to New Ycrk Hospital from Fort Wayne- cn June 12 for a series of operations, the last of which was performed in late August. SBI inveotigateo tliroato againot Hunt RALEIGH (AP) Threats against Gov. Jim Hunt and his family have continued to be received and the Stats Bureau of Investigation is looking into them, Hunt and an administration aide said Thursday. "You don't worry so much about yourself. But when they start talking about your kids...." Hunt said to reporters after telling of the threats in his weekly news conference. "You have to be concerned," he said. "We have no way of knowing whether they're true. That's one reason we have to have more information...." Brent Hackney, Hunt's deputy press secretary, said the threats did not end with Hunt's appearance at the Democratic National Convention in New York City last month, where extraordinary security measures were taken to protect him. . Cameraman teotifieo in IQan trial GREENSBORO (AP) A television photographer testified Thursday he saw Coleman Blaire Pridmore, one of six Ku Klux Klansmen and Nazis standing trial in the slaying of five Communist activists, "aiming and firing a shotgun" during a rally Nov. 3. Ed Boyd, a cameraman for WTVD-TV in Durham, was challenged by .defense attorneys about his earlier identification of Pridmore and three others as men who fired into a crowd of anti-Klan demonstrators. "I'll never forget it as long as I live," Boyd said in reiterating statements he made on the witness stand Wednesday. t i :s i 'icl From pego 1 negotiations."
