Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs Donald Boulton spoke to the spectators. A 77 c3 fhjTfir (Til UJ oiJ a Tht Associated Press T ( . . f r v -V o i i V The Carter administration warned the Soviet Union Tuesday that an attempt to invade Poland or intervene in Polish internal affairs would trigger most serious and adverse consequences for East-West and Soviet American relations. A flurry of fresh reports of Soviet military moves on Poland's borders erupted Tuesday as Poland's Communist Party Central Committee met in Warsaw to deal with labor turmoil that has alarmed the country's Warsaw Pact allies. Jody Powell, President Carter's chief spokesman, issued the warning, telling reporters it would be a serious mistake for any nation to underestimate the will and determination of the United States merely because the U.S. government is in a period of transition between presidents. Powell declined to speculate on what steps the' United States might take if the Soviet Union moved against Poland. He also declined to say whether any warnings have been sent to Moscow directly via diplomatic channels. But it was disclosed earlier in the day that the State Department summoned Soviet Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin to an unannounced meeting Monday to try to determine Soviet views toward the continuing labor strife in Poland. In his meeting with reporters, Powell noted with approval that the European Common Market had issued a veiled warning to the Soviet Union not to interfere in Polish affairs. The heads of government of the nine member nations, meeting in Luxembourg, expressed their willingness to meet, as far as their resources will allow, Poland's request for economic aid. Powell was asked why European nations might be quicker to respond to Soviet intervention in Poland than they were to the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan. "The statement from Europe has been firm and clear today and it is also true that Poland is a little closer to home than Afghanistan," Powell replied. Moscow categorically denied reports that Red Army troops on Poland's eastern border had been put on the highest state of alert or that there had been any M T O Uncrease in athletic fee proposed' : mobilization of Soviet forces. The reports renewed concern that the Soviet Union might be considering military action in Poland to quell unrest and halt moves that the Kremlin sees as undermining Communist Party rule. ; The Central Committee meeting in Warsaw opened with a warning from Communist Party leader Stanislaw Kama that Poland's independent labor leaders must "sober up" and cooperate with the party. There were reports that the party leadership was. divided on how to cope with militant union leaders and the Polish economic crisis. ' In Washington, D.Cr, defense officials said they were notified that the Soviet Union planned to close an area in East Germany along the Polish border and dismissed the action as routine. Maj. Gen. Jerry Curry, a Pentagon spokesman,, sidestepped comments on the Soviet-Polish situation. "There's nothing new there," he said. Sea POLAND on psga 3 Cy KERRY DEROCIII Staff Writer UNC Athletic Director John Swofford has submitted a proposal for an increase in the student athletic fee. 'Vice Chancellor of Business and Finance John Temple said he had received Swofford's request for an increase but he said he would not comment further on it. Student Body President Bob Saunders said Swofford told him he would propose an increase of $25 to be phased in over a period of two years. An increase of $15 would be added to next year's fee and $10 to the next year's. Swofford could not be reached for comment. The proposal for a fee increase will be discussed at the Athletic Council meeting tonight. Any recommendations by the council would, be 'submitted directly to Temple. Students currently pay $35 a year in athletic fees. This figure is one of the lowest in UNC's 16-campus system. Saunders said he did not know whether he would support the fee increase or not. If the money was to go to the non-revenue sports, he said he could recognize the need for an increase. "The size of the proposed increase is what bothers me," Saunders said. "It has not been justified to me yet." . Saunders said he would propose to the council that the fee be phased in over a period of three years instead of two. "The Athletic Department' did an excellent thing in trying to phase in an increase," Saunders said. "I think they ought to break it down further." ' Although Swofford has already submitted a request for an fee increase to Temple, any recommendation by the council will still be considered. Temple will then study the requests and make his recommendations to Chancellor Christopher C. Fordham III. The budgets, with or without a fee increase must then be approved by the UNC Board of Trustees and the UNC Board of Governors. .J Gov. Jim Hunt 1 T . . n i t " 1 1 it i I I'M! ! I I I i I i ti !! fr I o f"Y """I By MARK ANCONA Staff Writer Gov. Jim Hunt's recent trip to California to encourage major movie producers to consider North Carolina for future movie production was very successful, William Arnold, state film office chief, said Tuesday. "Revenue that will be brought into the state will amount to about $36 million this year," Arnold said. He added that as many as 14 films would be shot in North Carolina next year. Hunt urged producers to consider the state in his address to them at a dinner in Santa Clara, Calif. "There's only one way to look at the future for business in our state and that's optimistically," he said. Hunt also told the representatives that the people of North Carolina were willing to make commitments on their behalf. "The desire by ccur.tl:s, cities and towns to support industrial growth is at an all-time high," he said. "We are making a massive commitment to provide the' trained manpower today's modern industries need." As well as movies, North Carolina also has attracted many national sponsors who want to promote their products and film commercials in North Carolina, Arnold said. "There have been 70 commercials filmed in North Carolina this year," he said. He added that with an average cost of $40,000 per commercial that much more revenue was being pumped into the state. Because of the increased interest shown by major movie producers in North Carolina,. Hunt formed a state film office on Jan. 1, 1980. Its major function is to assist filmmakers. "We do anything we can to assist filmmakers and give them our full cooperation," Arnold said. "As an economic tool it (filmmaking) b very effective," Arnold saidl "They come in, shoot their film, leave their money and go." "North Carolina wants film production. We are willing to work very" hard to make it easy and economical for filmmakers to work in our state," Hunt said at a luncheon at Universal Studios in Hollywood. "In North Carolina, the officials, the merchants, the businessmen and the ordinary folks are all anxious and eager to work with your film crews." Hunt promised the producers tdtal cooperation. He referred to past visits from studio representatives in which the governor's limousine and drive, two state vehicles, film office escorts and a new $1 million helicopter were at their disposal.

The hearing was another step in consideration of the proposed curriculum. The Faculty Council subcommittee will hold another hearing at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday in Wilson 217. The committee will decide on its' recommendation during two meetings cn Jan. 13 and Jan. 20 at the same lime and place. All meetings will be open.

CGC Speaker Cynthia Currin said the UNC Hoard of Governors had not set a final deadline for fee increase and, therefore, the council could postpone deliberation until January. The proposal for the fee increase, introduced at the last council meeting, petitioned the UNC Board of Trustees to increase the fee by $2.30 per year. The approval by the trustees was to be contingent upon the vote of the student body in the February election. The trustees deadline for receiving fee increases had been set at Dec. 12. However, Student Body President Deb Saunders said this deadline was set just to meet the Board cf Gov erncrs deadline and therefore the council was panted the extension, requirements would prevent students Council members asked for an extension cn the deadline to from gaining the depth needed In their have more time to discuss whether a fee increase was needed major. and to look into other methods of raisins money. One such Samuel R. Williamson, dean of the proposal was to look into investment spending cf the General College of Arts and Sciences, said Surplus funds. 77 exempting those groups "will ensure the integrity of specialized programs." Chemistry professor Richard C. Jzrnagin said he found the exemption acceptable, and he said a faculty member from health affairs did also. At the meeting it was stated also that the administrative boards had recommended approving the appointment of an associate dean cf general education and a committee of five faculty members and one student. Their purpose would be to review courses and existing departmental and depree programs and recommend the awarding cf funds for develop. ng capstone and interdisciplinary courses. If approved by the Faculty Council at its Feb. 12 meeting, the revised curriculum would te implemented in spring 1 32- The report would inst.'ute a c r semester math requirement for all students along with revised fert'rn liT.yj.zzt requirements.

In the election for Senior Cass officers, the council added an amendment that said the candidates for Senior class president and vice president would be listed cn the ballot separately unless all cf the candidates unanimously decided they would like to be listed with a running mate. The law had previously stated, as proposed by the Rules and Judiciary Committee, that a majority decision by the candidates was enough to determine whether the listing would be together or separate. CGC members said this would be unfair to any candidate running for an cfHcc by himself, who might by overruled by the other candidates. The council also vc :ed to move the date cf the inauguration for the student body president, residence hall association president and the CGC mere. hers to r.ct more than 15 days after the general election.
