Bet ween 6 and 13 percent of the women in Orange County have been raped, according to the center. "Rape does go on around us and everyone should be aware of it," Lt. Ralph Pendergraph of the Chapel Hill Police Department said. Pendergraph said he was one of 20 officers working on the recent rape cases. . ,Tve put in 12 hours this and last week not paid." Pendergraph said more than 50 percent of those charged with sexual assaults ,are : convicted in Chapel Hill.-.- V b r n: 'rf'"l sjw till n't !''-' r'f' Chapel Hill Police1 Department social worker Jane Cousins works with rape victims throughout the legal process, Pendergraph said. "We're the only police department in North Carolina with a social worker in the department. It's having a lux ury most departments don't have." Mary Ann Chap, director of the rape crisis center, said that in Chapel Hill about half the rapes go unreported. In 1983 the center received 53 reports of rapes and sex ual assaults. The Chapel Hill Police Department received 17. "We hear more because of our effective system," Chap said. The figure, also includes women who were raped before 1983 but reported it in 1983. Women are under no obligation to take legal action when they call the center, and their names are kept confidential, Chap said. There are several things a woman can do to prevent being raped, Chap said. "First she must realize that she's worth defending. Secondly she should be aware that rape exists. The Girl Scout motto 'Be prepared' is also important. Know what you would dp in that .situation. Women should be strong . -and assertiye. .Sometimes women forget hovtrotigthey1' s! are.' Be creative and use all your capabilities' to deal with" ' the situation." Chap said the "don't fight it" idea is not accurate. "Research says if you fight, three-fourths of the time you'll avoid it. We encourage you to assess the situa tion; you should make a decision and be committed to that decision," Chap added. Pendergraph also said women should think about self-: defense, "Don't feel foolish if you're suspicious. If you sense that someone is following you then make them commit to following" you. Be conspicuous or walk in a different direction. Go to a place where there's light and people," Pendergraph said. The center reports that out of 1 ,006 rapes reported in North Carolina in 1978, 31 percent took place in the woman's home. Seventy-four percent involved people of the same race, 48 percent involved a rapist previously known to the woman such as a friend or relative. Twenty-five percent involved the use of a weapon and 27 percent involved injury to the woman. Sixty-three per cent resulted in the arrest of the rapist. . Chap said4 since not all rapes occur when women wajk alone at night the RAPE escort' service cannot fully pfio tcct therii. Itidoesn'tdeal with the most common form of rape on the campus, date rape. Chap emphasized the importance of reporting a rape. "When a woman reports a rape, she's taking control," she said. "She's giving the man some notoriety and is saying 'You can't get away with this.' She should also say 'If I report this, I did not let him get away with this and this could help someone down the road.' The more women report, the more control they will have." z3TS27te Fresh With Quality cm r SAVE 1.20 Idaho Potatoes GENUINE BAKING Hmm0 10 lb. f 1 mr-" -w j save 2ri oavmy SAVE 60C Fresh Broccoli LARGE each bunch A Men today can understand rape victim 's feelings of fear By KATHY HOPPER Assistant Features Editor Rape is not just a woman's issue. It is a problem that also affects men. James Keith-Brown, a senior psychology and zoology major, has seen the trauma and frustration first-hand in both women and men. He is a male com panion at the Rape Crisis Center. "I talk with rape victims and their husbands and boyfriends. We try to relieve the tension between them." Keith-Brown said he became a compa nion this semester through the course Woman's Studies 90 and is receiving credit for his work at the center. "It was strange at first. Sometimes you feel all the blame put on you. I really wanted to be informed on the guy's perspective on rape." Lt. Ralph Pendergraph of the Chapel Hill Police Department said, "Sometimes I get offended. I realize that it's a crime where men are not as supportive. . But some men work long and hard hours to help prevent it." Keith-Brown said most men often tended to blame their girlfriend when she was raped. "They'll get really angry. But he shouldn't blame her. We're there for them to take their frustrations out on us, not her." Keith-Brown said he tries to make men understand what the victim is going through. "Be empathic. Believe them and let them know you believe.' Be there for them and donTfluestion them. Keith-Brown said it was also important for men to understand the problem of date rape. "Guys are likely to say 'she led me on,' especially if the girl has a bad reputation. Some may say 'if a girl has gone this far, then she'll go all the way.' When she ob jects some might say 'she's just frigid.' " The Orange County Rape Crisis Center's pamphlet Rape is Everybody's Problem lists four things men can do. "First work on reforming your at titudes and feelings by recognizing rape as a violent attack, against women. Then work for reform in the community's at titude by speaking up when you hear rape treated as a joke. Be a model to your friends and let them know how you feel about rape. Remember that until society rejects the myths and misconceptions about rape and begins treating rape as a serious problem, there will never be a real solution to the crime of rape" Keith-Brown said, "The girls don't want it. They don't enjoy it. Men need to realize these are myths and work to break the barriers."
