2The Daily Tar Heel Monday. February 16. 1981 Jr 4 7 From paga 1 amm yiw 1 w tt w W '"w J n - n i ; V-' ATLANTA (AP) A medical examiner Sunday identified skeletal remains found ' Friday as those of 1 1 -year-old Jeffery Mathis, the 17th black child to be found murdered in the Atlanta area in 19 months. Dr. John Feegel, associate medical examiner for Fulton County, said he identified the body primarily from dental records. Mathis, one of two children who had been listed as missing by investigators looking into the murders, disappeared in Match 1980. . Feegel said he focused his efforts to identify the body on the physical dif- . ferences between Mathis and the other child still missing 10-year:old Darron Glass, who disappeared in September. There were "minor inconsistencies" between both Mathis and Glass' dental records and the" remains, but there were several similarities between Mathis records and the skeleton. There were no ' similarities between Glass record and the remains, he said. Feegel said the remains were too decomposed to deter mine the cause of death. While Feegel worked to identify the remains, a group of volunteers returned Sunday to an area southwest of the city to search for clues in the case. The vol unteers have been combing Atlanta neigh borhoods since last fall, but have found nothing significant since their first search. The volunteers found the remains of 7-year-old Latonya Wilson that first week, one of 17 bodies discovered here. ' Police say some, but not all, of the cases are related. Six bodies have been found in the past five weeks alone. All of the victims were black, and all were between the ages of 7 and 15. All but two of the victims were male, and eight of them were either suffocated or strangled. Volunteers searching for evidence found what appeared to be some small leg bones Saturday, and the police task force assigned to the case was called in to determine whether it was the body of an 18th victim. Police immediately surrounded the area where the bones were found Satur day, and investigators were called to the scene. The area was adjacent to where Mathis' skeleton was found Friday, authorities said. The report projected that rental rates lor apartments built on the Couch property would be about $200 per student per month lor a 12-month lease. Increasing rents in OJum Village and residence halls to subsidize the apartments would reduce monthly rent by approximately $50 per apartment. These costs do not include utilities. Temple said he did not hejieve there was a housing shortage. He said an inventory taken in the fall, when the housing market was tightest, showed there were still unoccupied apartments in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro area. BoultQn disagreed, however, and said the shortage in housing did exist. "A lot of single students want to live on campus at a low cost," Boulton said. "We rnnnm rnoct ih need fh.il is there Boulton said that a survey cf-UNC off--. campus, unmarried students indicates that students were most interested in housing that is close to campus, inexpensive, in good con dition and clean. He said these needs could not be met in the present housing situation. Saunders agreed and said the rising apart ment rents and the trend of converting apart ments to condominiums would make housing even tighter in the future. A report released by the Student Consumer Action Union Friday indicated that apart ment rent had increased more than 50 percent since 1975. , "There is a shortage of low-cost housing for students and townspeople.",. Saunders said. "We need to increase the housing stock." u u 1 ) I. j 1 f f j in! 03 1 iS From pags 1 were Maryiana s last in tne nasi, wood hit two more shots, Sam Perkins canned a free throw and Jimmy Black scored on a drive 'down the lane as Carolina took a 43-25 halfttme lead.

In Dublin, an early morning flash fire Saturday swept through the city's largest nightclub killing 48 people and injuring at least 130 others.

Witnesses at the Stardust Cabaret said the fire erupted just .before 2 a.m., knocking cut the electricity and plunging the 700-800 patrons into darkness and panic. . The Sao Paulo fire struck a 20-story office building Saturday, killing 17 people and injuring 30 more.

A New Delhi airport control tower worker and a local government official in India said the 20-story balloon and the red, white and blue gondola carry ing Maxie Anderson and Don Ida touched down at Mirchpur about 5:30 a.m. EST, or about 4 p.m. in India. Yogeshwar Sawhney, commissioner of Hissar, where the balloon landed, said that doctors examined the balloonists and announced Mthcy were in fine shape, and that the two then left for New Delhi. Sawhney said authorities who rushed to the landing site at Mirchpur quoted the balloonists as saying the craft Jules Verne had developed mechan ical problems over Saudi Arabia. No details were provided, but tracking offi cials in Bedford, Mass., had said earlier the balloonists reported the Jules Verne may have sprung a leak. TJondale, Kennedy form groupa WASHINGTON (AP) Former Vice President Walter F. Mondale and Sen. Edward M.
