PEKING (AP) China's Parliament on Wednesday .cd the constitutional right to put up big voice of character wall posters, which had become th the tiny democracy movement in this communist country. By a show of hands, the vote by the National People's Congress was 3,220 in favor of abolishing Article 45 cf the constitution. One delegate abstained. No dissenting vote was cast. Article 45 guaranteed the "four greats" the right to speak freely, air views fully, engage in debates and put up big character wall posters. These rights were added to the constitution during the 1966-1976 cultural revolution. The constitution already guarantees freedom of eech, and China's current leaders have said wall s posters were being used by dissidents to undermine stability and unity and to slander innocent people. What China needs, they say,' is a peaceful environment for modernization. Many of the leaders, including Vice Chairman Deng Xioaping, were harshly criticized in wall posters. Before the congress adjourned, it gave formal approval to the earlier announced appointments of Zhao Ziyang as premier and three new vice premiers. Ratification of the four men put the final official seal on Deng's modernization program that calls for a collective leadership instead of worship of the late Chairman Mao Tse-tung and for production ahead of politics. ' The resignations of Chairman Hua Guofeng and Deng from their government positions and the selection n n From page 1 of Zhao all part of Deng's modernization drive were submitted earlier to the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party. Hua, Mao's handpicked sucessor as party chairman, had been the nominal head of the government for almost four years. Deng, as senior vice premier,, had been the dominant force. Both retained their important party positions. Approval of the changes by the congress was a formality. The names of the three new vice premiers had not been disclosed earlier. They are Huang Hua, foreign minister, Yang Jingren, minister of nationality affairs, and Gen. Zhang Aiping, deputy army chief of staff. The deputies also accepted the resignations of six of the 18 vice premiers and reduced the number of such positions to 14.

The amendment also allows for small cluster housing and small lot subdivision, both of which would increase housing opportunities, he said. The ordinance takes effect immediately, but because there has been no rezoning for the area affected by the amendment, developers will have to present their proposals for the board's approval, Belkin said. He said the zoning board will present a residential rezoning proposal to the aldermen in November that will allow for a systematic rezoning of present districts;. :.- Although Belkin said he could not reveal the names of any potential developers for ' rezoned areas, he admitted there was a "considerable amount of interest by developers."

"Indirectly, (the amendment) will generally stimulate developers because (they) will develop more to meet the needs of the market," Belkin said. With a temporary 10-day restraining order, Wendy's in Carrboro opened for business Monday at noon. Shannon Julian, chairman of the Board of Adjustments, said representatives of the board and of Wendy's met Sept. 7 and were unable to agree on revised curb cuts and, on whether left-hand turns into Wendy's would be allowed. According to Drakeford, members of the Board of Adjustments were summoned to Raleigh Wednesday by State Supreme Court Judg James Pou Bailey to discuss the issue. When Wendy's representees and an attorney representing the Board of Adjustments go before court again next week, the board will ask that court considerations be postponed until after the board meets on Sept. 17 to discuss the matter further, Julian said. In other action, the board approved a resolution of final plans for the Jones Ferry Road bikeway construction. University police still are investigating the Sept, 5 armed robbery cf the Pine Room Cafeteria. St. Robert L. Porreca refused to comment on the investigation, but said the police were very concerned because this type of crime was rarely seen at UNC. Almost S3, (XX) was taken from the cafeteria safe after a robber pulled a handgun on Pine Room Assistant Manager Jim Vann. Vann described the robber as a very stocky black man, 23 or 24 years old and about 5 feet 6 inches tall. First lady campaigno in Charlotte CHARLOTTE (AP) First lady Rosalynn Carter, beginning a brief southern campaign swing Wednesday, defended the president's refusal to join an initial three-way debate and predicted he will hold his political base in the South. "The people of the South know what kind of president Jimmy Carter has been," Mrs. Carter told reporters. "And I think the South will be with us again." Mrs. Carter said the president "is sticking by his guns" in agreeing to include independent candidate John Anderson in a presidential debate only after he meets Republican nominee Ronald Reagan in a one-on-one session first. "We look forward to the debate with Gov. Reagan. I hope there are a lot of them, and I hope they are soon," she said. Mrs. Carter spent about two hours in Charlotte and spoke to a crowd of about 2,000 during a lunchtime rally at a downtown plaza. Her appearance was billed by Democrats as the official kickoff of the president's fall campaign in North Carolina, a state where he is generally considered to hold the upper hand over Reagan.

' the people who put the station on the air and therefore it's hard to imagine people using their own pocket money today." The money was spent on an all-campus party sponsored by Henderson Residence College, Olde Campus, the Carolina Union and Student Government. A summer CGC can provide the funds for a party through the approval of the finance chairman. Preston said he did not think the party violated any treasury law. "We would have had the party without the money from WXYC's account," Preston said. "However, we couldn't have had nearly as good of a party." Saunders said Wednesday that since a program to provide money for summer social events was eliminated by the CGC last spring, he thought the "illegal" money would be put to good use to pay for a summer party. "It never crossed my mind to investigate. It was the explanation we received from WXYC," Saunders said. "I wish we had known then." 110 E. FnArillLHJ GT.
