OWASA still requests voluntary water conservation

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the
shower
Officials at the Orange Water and Sewer Authority are
still "praying for more rain," said administrative assistant
Joan Gilgor. Although this week's rain of 1 .22 inches and
the subsequent runoff have pushed University Lake, this
area's main water source, back up to 38 inches below full,
OWASA is continuing to ask residents to follow voluntary
water conservation measures.
Pat Davis, systems specialist for OWASA, said the re
quest probably would not be lifted in the near future.
"Water usage has remained quite low," Davis said. "It
appears that people still recognize the fact that we're not
in real good shape."
Wednesday's consumption level was 5.3 million gallons.
The target level is 5.5 million.
OWASA' s target in lifting the present conservation re
quest is a lake level of 36 inches below the full elevation of
349 feet. Davis said that level could be reached with one or
two steady rainfalls but that rain was not the only deter
mining factor in deciding to lift the request.
"We would still take the availability of adjacent sup
plies very seriously," Davis said. "I doubt that we'll have
to purchase water again this year, but it still may be a little
while (before we lift the request). We'll be cautious in
making a decision."
During the peak of Chapel Hill's water crisis, the town
purchased almost 1.65 million gallons from Lake Orange
in Hillsborough, but after a rainfall of 5.14 inches in
Chapel Hill during the month of October, these purchases
stopped on Oct. 25.
Hillsborough spokesman Bill Laws said the town's
water supply would be sufficient to support further pur
chases should Chapel Hill have continued water needs in
the immediate future.
Although Lake Orange, Hillsborough's major source
of water, is now down 49.8 inches below full to approx
imately 60 percent of its capacity, water from Lake
Orange was still released when it was down by as much as
58 inches almost a month ago, Laws said.
Laws said that there had been steady improvement in
the water conditions recently in both towns, and that the
water supply in both is in the process of building back up.
"Lake Orange has come back up virtually 9 inches,"
Laws said.
University Lake has increased in water level by more
than 17 inches with Tuesday's rain because of its larger
watershed.
Campus parties debate policy
By CINDY PARKER

A crowd of interested students
braved the cold weather in the Pit
Thursday afternoon as members of the
UNC Young Democrats and College
Republicans debated U.S. fou v
policy.
The debate, part of Hnu Kights
Week at the University, was led by
Young Democrats member Tim New
man, who cited the policy of the
Reagan administration as one of "fight
now, negotiate later." This is in direct
contrast with the policy of Reagan's
predecessor, Jimmy Carter, who
"showed his commitment to human
rights," Newman said.
Ray Shimer, a College Republican,
argued that the United States must
counteract Soviet aggression. "The
policy of. the Soviet Union is to take
over the entire world." The Soviets
seek to achieve this goal through
destruction, Shimer said.
The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan
was an "unprovoked assault on an in
nocent country," said Harry Kaplan,
President of the College Democrats on
campus. "Yet recently, we have done
the same thing," he said, referring to
the U.S. attack on Grenada.
The United States violated interna
tional law by invading Grenada be
cause there was "no proven danger to
American citizens there," Kaplan said.
"We have adopted a dangerous
policy If we don't get rid of him
(Reagan) in 1984 we'll see this happen
again and again."
Martin Lloyd, arguing on behalf of
the Republicans, elicited jeers from the
crowd when he cited the invasion of
Afghanistan as unprovoked and that of
Grenada as provoked.
Lloyd briefly summarized the unrest
in Nicaragua. "Thanks to the Demo
crats we have lost another country to
the communists," he said. Later, in
response to a comment from an on
looker, Lloyd said the word "commu
nist is synonymous with Democrat."
The debate was sponsored by the
Young Democrats as a part of Human
Rights Week.

In the story "BSM choir's fate in court's,
hands," the DTH incorrectly quoted
Assistant Student Attorney General David'
Maslia as saying scripture and music make
up only a small portion of performances
of the BSM Gospel Choir. The statement
should have read "scripture and
prayer " The DTH regrets the error.
In the story "Author to speak Tuesday
on human ancestor Lucy," in Monday's
paper, it was incorrectly reported that the
. human skeleton Lucy is 3.5 billion years
old. Lucy is actually 3.5 million years old.
The DTH regrets the error.
Groups combine over race relations
By CHRIS EDWARDS
Staff Writer
There is no shortage on campus of
organizations working to improve race
relations. At a meeting Wednesday
night, representatives from some of the
organizations got together and decided
that a little teamwork might go a long
way.
Representatives at the first meeting
of the University Relations Committee
Information Exchange agreed to com
bine their efforts to create greater racial
understanding at UNC. They expressed
together the belief that one group pro
posal would be more effective than
numerous smaller proposals from the
many different organizations con
cerned with minorities.
An important issue discussed at the
meeting was the further integration of
on-campus housing. Mark Dalton,
Residence Hall Association president,
said it must first be determined if the
large black population on South Cam
pus was a sign of racism. "I don't
believe this is the case," Dalton said,
"but I think a problem does exist."
Dalton said that a student govern
ment task force considering the prob
lem had three goals: a revision of the
roommate questionnaire received by in
coming freshmen, a restructuring of
pre-orientation and orientation ac
tivities to encourage greater racial in
teraction, and an expansion of black
cultural programs in residence halls.
"We need to find a way to expose
students to different cultures," Dalton
said.
Jennifer Ayer, co-coordinator of
People Against Racism, a campus
organization that deals with racial
issues, said her group was concerned
with segregation in general. She cited
hiring of more minority faculty
members and developing a better racial
balance between South and North
Campus as the goals of the group.
Those in attendance agreed to try to
meet on a regular basis in the future to
discuss racial concerns.
Other groups represented at the
meeting included the Union Public
Relations Committee, the Carolina In
dian Circle, and the Panhellenic Coun
