? Th,. Daily Tar Heel Thursday. October 16, 1980 0 u o 2 C K ftJ Of ( i .WASHINGTON (AP) The linal government witness in the University of North Carolina desegregation case was put on the defensive Wednesday about a chart outlining apparent discrepancies between course offerings at white and black schools in the UNC system. D. Catherine Baltzell and Robert Dentler, both of Abt Associates Inc. of Cambridge, Mass., drew up the chart from course listings in University of North Carolina catalogs. ' ' . On Tuesday, Baltzell, a senior analyst with the Massachusetts firm, used the chart in testifying about w hat she termed a relative lack of breadth and depth in courses at the five traditionally black schools in the 16-campus UNC system. Her.; testimony came in a hearing before an administrative law judge on the U.S. Department of Education's move to cut off about $100 million a year in federal funds to UNC. The government has maintained the university has tailed to adequately desegregate. Under cross-examination Wednesday by UNC lawyer Ed Ashworth, Baltzell agreed the chart indicated there were no courses at North Carolina Central University in Durham in . anthropology, anatomy, botany, genetics, public health, physics, astronomy, insurance and real estate. At Winston Salem State University the chart indicates no offerings in botany, genetics and several other fields. However, Ashworth produced catalogs from the schools indicating at least one course offering in' all of those fields at the two schools. The Winston-Salem State catalogalso shows there are five geography courses offered at the school while the chart indicates there are none. And the catalog lists 12 physics courses, another area in which the chart said there were no offerings. - Baltzell said the geography listing appeared to be an error. In the case of physics, she said she believed the courses might have been entered on the wrong spot in the chart. Under re-examination later in the day by government lawyer Richard Foster, she said many of the individual courses in the biological sciences pointed out by Ashworth were counted under the overall category of biology at NCCU and Winston-Salem State. This was done because it was not possible to take a major or minor in those areas, she said. The government completed presentation of its case with testimony by Baltzell. However, the record remains open for other submissions. The NAACP Legal Defense Fund, an intervenor on behalf of the Department of Education in the case, will begin calling witnesses today. The university is not expected to begin presenting its case until early next year. r m . n , i r o J ; .

Iraq" reported 52 Iranian and nine Iraqi soldiers were killed in 12 hours of fighting near the highway. Iraq claimed its forces were only three or four miles from Abadan and had cut roads, railroads and pipelines to most of the oil-rich Khuzistan province and to Tehran, the Iranian capital 360 miles to the northwest. With the war in its 24th day Wednesday, Islamic nations made another attempt to halt it. Habib Chatti, secretary general of the Islamic Conference, was on his way' to visit Baghdad and Tehran to explore the possibility of peace talks. A previous mission sent by the conference failed. Iraqi troops closed a siege ring around Abadan, the Iraqi news agency reported, and held all roads leading to the city. The agency said Iraqi troops captured 100 Iranians, including two high-ranking officials, destroyed a large number of armored vehicles and inflicted heavy losses on the enemy. The Iraqi report said six oil pipelines had been cut, halting supplies to the Iranian capita! of Tehran 360 miles to the northwest. provided financial assistance for those people who were in need of funds for heating last winter. Blocksidge said. He and other oil company owners . would recommend the names of those families needing help, he said, and the government would provide assistance for those who qualified, Blocksidge said he had not been told if the program would be reinstitutcd this winter. y . Also, a weatherization survey, to determine areas of hardship in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, was started this month by JOCCA, with assistance from the Interfaith Council, a worker in the council said. A maximum of $560 will be provided to low income homeowners for improvements such as insulation, caulking,. weathcrstripping and. repairs, Hever said. The energy commission also discussed retrofitting for the county. If the countywide program. is adopted all homes will have to comply with a minimum standard for weatherization. Orange County currently has no retrofitting program, commission members said. in which corporations have undue power, Commoner said. He called independent John Anderson's campaign "more of the same," and said Republican Ronald Reagan and President Jimmy Carter have shown a willingness to allow corporate power to grow. Turning to foreign affairs, Commoner said the Citizen's Party believed it was wrong "to interfere with a democratic government... we made a mistake in Iran and it ought to be acknowledged," he said. Commoner offered numerous facts and " figures to back his statements, saying at one point that a rule of the party is the candidate must speak facts. He criticized George Bush for proposing that the country could survive a nuclear war, citing an official defense department document that predicts a relatively small nuclear bomb dropped on Chapel Hill would kill all 43,000 citizens. Commoner saki he did not expect to win. "I don't really want to be president, I'm just running," he said. Earlier Wednesday, Commoner defended the use of the word "bullshit" in his national radio ads. He said the ads had drawn attention to his campaign which he claimed the media had been ignoring. Commoner's running mate, La Donna Harris of New Mexico, is the only woman nominated by a major party this year. She is a strong supporter of the Equal Rights Amendment. UNC profeooor testifioo in Klan trial GREENSBORO (AP) A psychiatrist testified Wednesday that he believes Jerry Paul Smith, one of six Ku Klux Klansmen and Nazis on trial in the shooting deaths of five Communists, was conscious of his actions during the Nov. 3 confrontation. Dr. Robert Rollins, who was presented as an expert in criminal behavior and amnesia, is a professor of psychiatry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a lecturer at Duke University. He also is a former director of Dorothea Dix mental hospital in Raleigh. Rollins was called by prosecutors in an attempt to discredit Smith's claim that he was unconscious during part of the incident last fall and could not remember firing the pistol which allegedly killed Communist Workers Party activist Cesar Vinson Cauce, The defendants are charged in the shooting deaths of five CVR members at an anti-Klan rally sponsored by the group last Nov. 3. Callaglian resigns Labor Party post LONDON (AP) James Callaghan resigned as leader of the deeply divided opposition Labor Party on Wednesday, leaving its right and left wings to battle for control of Britain's socialist movement. The decision by the 63-year-old former prime minister not to run in the party's annual leadership election Nov. 4 is seen as enhancing the chances that another moderate will win. In January, the party will decide on a new - ' leadership electoral college expected to favor the left. ' .Former Chancellor of the Exchequer Denis Healey, 63, the right's front- CO FSVGi' t From page V runner, immediately announced he would seek the leadership. At least four whbih other contenders, all to the left of Healey, are expected to run. Labor's center-right members wanted Callaghan to quit now to give them a chance to gain the leadership before the Jan, 24 conference. The left-wing, headed by former Energy Secretary Tony Benn, 56, wanted Callaghan to stay as a lame-duck leader until the electoral college issue is settled. many of the modifications.

A home energy inspection can be requested for a fee of $10 Murdock said 48 percent of the state's homes were heated by oil, while 26 percent were heated by electricity and 20 percent by natural gas. Wood, bottled gas and coal make up the other six percent.

Only three other summers in this century have taken more American lives in heat-related fatalities. Most of those who died from the heat wave were either elderly or poor and lived in non-air conditioned homes or apartments, the agency said. Missouri, with 311 deaths, had the highest toll in the nation, although other states had higher temperatures for longer periods. The heat wave broke temperature records in more than a half-dozen states, and in Dallas, Texas, the mercury climbed over 100 degrees each day from June 23 to Aug. 3. On one day, July 13, temperature records were set in three cities: Augusta, Ga., had 107 degrees; it was 105 in Atlanta; and Memphis, Term., hit 103.
