.Copyright 1985 The Daily Tar Heel Volume 93, Issue 108 People JL snow comes No matter how far temperatures drop and no matter how hard the wind blows, when it snows in Chapel Hill, people will play. One to two inches of snow blanketed the Chapel Hill-Carrboro area early yesterday, and The National Weather Service issued a travelers advisory yesterday for the Piedmont area in North Carolina. At least for those students who waited for basketball tickets in Carmichael Auditorium yesterday morning, the snow came as a surprise. I went to get tickets at about 6 (a.m.), and it was warmer outside than it was last Sunday," said April Yontz, a sophomore from Winston-Salem. "But then when we came out later, it was snowing." Deborah Simpkins, a senior from Asheboro who also waited for tickets yesterday morning, said the snow didn't dampen many spirits outside Carmichael. "Most people were real excited about it," Simpkins said. "A lot of people started playing in the snow as soon as they saw it." Around Chapel Hill, it was a bitter cold winter day with daytime highs in the late teens and overnight lows between 0 and 5 degrees. Northwesterly winds gusting between 20-30 mph frequently brought the temperature to 15 degrees below zero. But on campus, a few students either didn't mind or didn't notice the biting wind and sub-freezing temperatures. Students played football on the quads of North Campus, the beaches of South Campus and everywhere in between. "Snow makes people turn into little kids again," said Tanya Madalozzo, a sophomore from Tarboro. Off campus, students skied and played ice hockey on the parking lot at Estes Park Apartments in Carrboro. Jay Hirst, a graduate student from Mars Hill and a member of the UNC ice hockey club said yesterday the par km lot was frozen over completely. "We could play hockey all night out there," Hirst said. But for students, the snow wasn't all that much fun. Those returning yester day morning from the Saturday night Bruce Springsteen concert, battled icy roads between Greensboro and Chapel Hill. Laura Thompson, a senior from JV cheerleader By LISA SWICEGOOD Staff Writer Junior-varsity cheerleader Robin Davidson remains unconscious and in critical condition at North Carolina Memorial Hospital and has developed kidney and lung problems, according to Tanya Beeren, a close friend of Davidson's. Davidson, a sophomore from Rocky Mount, fractured her skull Tuesday night after falling from a pyramid stunt the cheerleaders were practicing. The accident occured minutes before the women's basketball game against N.C. State University. Beeren, a sophomore from Charlotte, said fluid had been building up on Davidson's lungs due to medication she p- i . i iu ii ii. ... . iii ii i ii m m it i ii mi i ii i mi. i. i in w mum mi li i Win i. mo in hp imimi i nuii inu.um.iu. jib ' m '" m ummmmt B'ymmVM mm m.mmmMuumm ihii maim mm wminmiumiiwi iijiiiub ui Jim w ' 3- J.. -- it m ' " ' ' aP ' - .'.V ' !

Super Bowl XIX: San play w 1 nen Classes are scheduled to continue From staff reports Students should attend classes as usual today despite the snow and ice, according to Donald Boulton, vice chancellor and dean of student affairs. Unless students hear reports on radio and television which say classes are canceled, the University plans to maintain normal operations, Boulton said yesterday afternoon. "Everyone who can make it (to school) makes it," Boulton said. "Those who can't, can't." In the past, the University's main problem on campus after a snowfall had been faculty members who could not make it to campus because of poor road conditions, Boulton said. He suggested students call department offices this morning to ask if their professors made it to campus. The last time classes were canceled at the University was January 15, 1982. Prior to that, classes had not been canceled because of snow since the Civil War. "There must have been a storm or two before 2," Boulton said. "But we have so many things that just have to keep going. You just don't shut down a medical school."

Thompson said she had to pay $20 to be towed out of the ditch. "I got back on the road, and I didn't go more than about 25 (mph) after that," Thompson said. "It was just one sheet of ice."

The medication was used to keep Davidson still so her blood pressure would remain low. Until Davidson becomes conscious, doctors will not be able to determine whether brain damage occurred. "She's had a rough day today," Beeren said yesterday. "But she has her good and bad days." Beeren said doctors did not know how long Davidson would remain hospitalized but told her Davidson had a long road to recovery. "There have been so many friends coming by," Beeren said.

The amount of the flexible per semester fee, which is separate from the Student Activities Fee, would be set each year by the Campus Governing Council, depending on SLS needs. It would likely cost students $1 a semester. Such a rate would give SLS about $44,000. in one year, which is slightly more than half the organiza tion's annual budget.

Lloyd said he wanted constitutional funding of SLS and a straight fee increase referendum that would also give students the chance to vote for lower student fees. Constitutional funding of SLS isn't right, Student Body President Paul Parker said. It strips the CGC of the power to represent students each year when funding, he said, and there's no on UNC concerns, not U.S. Campus Elections concerns, Ives said if elected, he would convince the administration to use mailings to keep students informed about academic requirements and deadlines.

As president, Ives said he would work to create a strong working relationship outside the classroom between students and faculty.

Campus organizations would be invited to sponsor floats and compete for prizes, he said. Pavao said he saw the homecoming queen as a necessary part of the homecoming tradition. "To prevent joke candidates, there would be a Mr. UNC," he said. "That way, there would be one competition for anyone inter ested in participating." After the homecoming game, he said a concert would be held in the new Student Activities Center.
