Task force urges against random housing By MARK STINNEFORD Staff Writer Assigning on-campus residents to dormitories at ran dom rather than by individual preference would be an unacceptable way to achieve racial integration in UNC housing, a Student Government task force has conclud ed' In a report issued Friday, the task force said "random housing" was a "code word for forced integration and a violation of student rights." . "It's just as dangerous to force people to live together as it is to force them to live separately," task force Chairman Angie Robbins said. "(Having random housing assignments) would be say ing, 'You want to live in Hinton James. Too bad. You get swirled in the pot and end up at Old East," Robbins said. The task force began work in the fall after two South Campus resident assistants S.L. Price, who has since graduated, and Martin Miller wrote signed columns in The Daily Tar Heel calling upon the University to more fully integrate campus housing. Miller couid not be reached for comment Monday. The report reflected sentiments expressed by students during a number of forums on the housing issue, Rob bins said. "They came out definitely opposed to any form of forced integration of dormitories; black students in par ticular (were opposed)," she said. Random housing could threaten the cooperative racial atmosphere that has developed on South Campus, Rob bins said. The report noted that activities of the Black Student Movement, black Greek organizations and the Minority Student Tutorial Program were centered at South Campus. "I don't think South Campus should be sacrificed for the benefit of the whole campus," said BSM President Sherrod Banks, a task force member. The task force, which consisted of representatives from Student Government, the BSM and the Residence Hall Association, recommended that the roommate questionnaire on the housing contract be expanded. It also recommended holding some Pre-Orientation and Orientation activities together and scheduling more minority cultural activities on North Campus. Wayne Kund, director of University Housing, said he agreed in principle with the task force conclusions about random housing assignments. But he said he would have to get more specific information from the task force to determine whether the roommate questionnaire could be expanded. The Chancellor's Committee on the Status of Minorities will probably recommend against random housing assignments when it issues a report later this semester, committee Chairman William Small said. The committee is also likely to propose the creation of a black cultural center on campus, he said. "Students ought to be able to choose their housing sites as they see fit," Small said. "There should be freedom of choice. "The black students I have spoken with seem quite pleased with the atmosphere on South Campus. There is no real desire to move to North Campus on their part." Small said the chancellor's committee also was study ing a proposal to integrate a North Campus residence hall on arkexperimental basis. UNC medical school not reducing enrollment By DICK J. BOYCE Staff Writer The UNC school of Medicine has no intention of reducing enrollment next year, despite such a plan announced last week by the Duke University School of Medicine. Dr. Stuart Bondurant, dean of the UNC School of Medicine, said the school would not cut the size of incoming first year classes. Duke decided to reduce its enrollment size because of an oversupply of foreign students wanting to enter medical school and because of the growing surplus of doctors, Dr. William G. Anlyan, Duke chancellor of health affairs, said last week . Over the next five years Duke will reduce its enrollment to 100 students from 114. "I am sorry Duke chose to reduce class size," Bondurant said. "North Carolina has about the right number of people in medical school to provide the right number of doctors for the future." Bon durant agreed with Anlyan that the pro blems was because of the great number of foreign students wanting to study medicine in the United States. Ambassador from China to speak at UNC tonight Zhang Wenjin, the People's Republic of China's ambassador to the United States, is scheduled to address "China and the US: Five Years After Normaliza tion" tonight at 7:30 in 100 Hamilton Hall. Sponsored by the Office of Interna tional Programs, the speech will be the fourth in the seven-week "Great Deci sions '84" series of weekly lectures delivered by foreign-policy experts from outside UNC. Zhang is one of the highest-ranking foreign dignitaries ever to visit the UNC campus. "If he isn't (the highest), he's a tie with anybody who's been here before," said Joseph Tulchin, director of the Office of International Programs. Born in 1914, Zhang is a career diplomat who has served as ambassador to Pakistan and Canada, vice minister of the Ministry of, Foreign Affairs and, .chair-; man of his country's delegation to the; United Nations. A member of the Chinese Communist Party, he helped ar range Chinese Premier Zhao Ziyang's re cent visit to the United States. Chernenko ' "In China, Ambassador Zhang is regarded as one of their most competent foreign policy specialists," said Hsi Sheng Chi, associate professor of political science. "He speaks English well and has wide-ranging experience in the field." Zhang will return to China next month to prepare for President Reagan's visit there in April. Zhang has called for warmer relations between the United States and China. Zhang and his wife, Zhang Ying, paid a courtesy call Monday to Gov. Jim Hunt in Raleigh. "Great Decisions '84" is sponsored na tionally by the Foreign Policy Association of New York, a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to- increasing public understanding of foreign policy issjues. Community discussion groups are sponsored each spring. .. Zhang's speech will be free and open to the public. -KEITH BRADSHER From page 1 before Andropov's death. It welcomed t his statement that despite the many dif ferences between the Soviet Union and the United States, "today it is more im portant than ever before to multiply our. efforts toward mutual understanding." State Department spokesman John Hughes said, "These are our goals as well. What is needed is to move from words to deeds in building a more con structive U.S.-Soviet relationship." As for the possibility of an early meeting between Reagan and Chernenko, Hughes reiterated that the administration is interested in arranging such an en counter if a positive results can be assured. White House spokesman Speakes said any get-acquainted meeting would need to be well-prepared and should also carry "reasonable promise for success in results." Officials have made, it clear that Vice President Bush was not carrying any mandate to arrange a summit conference. Because of Chernenko's age and his lack of background in formulating foreign or domestic policy, there is speculation that decision-making and governing responsibilities might be shared among other leading Politburo members. Two major foreign policy issues are the deterioration of relations with the United States and the deadlock on negotiations to control nuclear weapons. It is believed that the Politburo is about equally divided between the "old guard" that rose to power during Brezhnev's 18-year regime, and younger members who were added in recent years, including two under Andropov. Brezhnev, who died at age 75, took . control of the party when he was 58 as did. the late Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev. The Soviet Union's only other top party leaders Vladimir Lenin was 47 at the time of the Russian Revolution, and Josef Stalin was general secretary of the party at 43.

"I do not agree that we should hurt residents from good medical schools to make room for residents from bad medicine schools. We ar? lowering the quality of graduates for the future." Bondurant said the five medical schools in North Carolina should favor students from within the state. Despite its relatively small size, Duke chose to reduce enrollment when other schools around the country weren't tak ing such steps, Anlyan said.' Bondurant explained that it was not entirely accurate to say that a surplus of doctors now exists. The distribution of jobs for doctors across the country and in North " Carolina is uneven both by geography and by specialty. Although there is an oversupply of doctors in specialties such as pediatrics, in other areas including family medicine and psychiatry, there's still a need for more people. Geographically, North Carolina has enough doctors in large cities, but the rural eastern part of the state needs more doctors, Bondurant said. Driving con test being held; sponso red by Chrysler By LAUREN BROWN Staff Writer ' If you've ever dreamed of being a race car driver, here's your chance to make that dream come true. Chrysler Corporation is conducting their National Collegiate Driving Championships at UNC from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today and tomorrow in the F-parking lot. The event, which is taking place at 75 selected universities across the United States, will challenge students to drive a 1984 Dodge Daytona Turbo around a figure-eight course of pylons. The student gaining the best time without penalties will win an all ex penses paid trip to Daytona Beach, Fla., to compete in the national cham pionships. Second and third place campus prizes are Dodge Daytona rac ing jackets and a free subscription to the magazines Motor Trend, Car Craft, Car & Driver or Hot Rod. At the nationals, the first place prize is a $5,000 scholarship and use of a 1984 Dodge Daytona Turbo for a year. Second and third place winners will receive $3,000 and $2,000 scholar ships, both including use of a Dodge Turbo for a year. The event is also being sponsored by the National Safety Council and the Sports Car. Club of America. These organizations hope the driving pro gram will enhance student awareness . of safe driving techniques and the danger of the drinking driver. The Union Recreation Committee is the student organization presenting the event. Chairman Will Woodard said, "An underlying theme of the program is safety for college drivers. It's a program that emphasizes safety and driving, while giving students a chance to do something fun." Chrysler has taken numerous measures to ensure the safety of their program. The car will be locked in first gear, student drivers will be re quired to wear helmets, and the driv ing crew will control a monitor switch that can stop the vehicle independent of the driver. The event is fully insured and the University has a written release from any associated liability. 'They're bringing pylons, . scorer boards, timing devices and everything ' else," Woodard said. "I anticipate a pretty big event and an excellent stu dent turnout." The program will be free to any stu dent with a valid driver's license and student I.D., Woodard said. In addition to race activities,! the 7-Up Company will be giving away free drinks during both days, Woodard said. "For free you can go down there and try and maybe win a. trip to Daytona, Fla. There's no professional drivers around here that have spent four weeks practicing, so any student has a good chance," Woodard said.
