1 he Athletic Association is replac
ing the lower section seals in Kenan
Stadium at a cost of $400,000.
Associate Director of Athletics Paul
Hoolahan said Tuesday.
The seats, section A-triple C, were
made of redwood plank and will be
replaced with aluminum. The new
seats will also have contoured seat
backs.
The new seats will be mainte
nance free and more comfortable,"
Hoolahan said.
The upper section seats were
replaced seven or eight years ago,
but the lower sections had not been
replaced in almost 20 years, he said.
"It's a replacement schedule that
we've gotten behind on," Hoolahan
said. "This year, we're doing them
all in one swoop."
Money for thf renovations came
from football ticket revenues, he
said. Renovations are scheduled to
be completed by early spring, not
causing any problems for the foot
ball season, he said.
Henry Phillips foreman, for the
contractor SPS Installation of Sum
ter. S.C.. said that the seats would
be sold for $ 1 5 each and that students
interested in buying them should
check local newspapers for advertise
ments in the next few weeks.
Hoolahan said he had heard
speculation that the contractors,
hired to dispose of the old seats,
might sell the seats as memorabilia.
The athletic department was not
involved in such a plan, he said, and
what the contractors did with the
seats "was ... no concern of the
University."
"We would hope that they
wouldn't (sell them)," he said.

An Orange Water and Sewer Authority water line
project will soon improve service at UNC, according
to OWASA chief engineer Wayne Munden.
Water piped in by the line could be used for new
dormitories, campus construction, fire protection and
air conditioner cooling towers, he said.
The project will begin at Main Street in Carrboro
near Carr Mill Mall and will continue to Franklin
Street. Graham Street and finally the intersection of
Cameron Avenue and South Columbia in Chapel Hill.
Munden said most of the water line would be
completed between May 12, the day after UNC
graduation, and Aug. 15, the day fall classes begin.
The entire project may be completed by late November.
.The water authority started accepting contracting
bids Feb. 2 and will continue taking them through
March 6.
Water authority officials said they wanted the work
to be done at night when traffic is minimal.
Construction equipment will be removed from the
street before morning, Munden said, . adding that
emergency exits for police and fire vehicles will be
maintained at all times.
If night work proves to be too expensive, he said,
the project might have to be done during the day.
The estimated cost of the water line is between
$600,000 and $700,000, he said. It will be financed
Hy bond sales and grants from Chape' Hil'
Carrboro. ,
The idea for the water line was conceived some four
to five years ago, but the high cost of night work
hindered the project.
The project should have a minimal effect on area
businesses, Munden said, especially if the work is done
at night.
Area merchants agreed. "I really don't see where
it would affect business any if it was done at night,"
said Peggy Strickland, manager of Family Dollar
Stores in Carrboro.
Robert Godding, transportation director for Chapel
Hill-Carrboro, said he expects no major problems. He
added that summer would be the best time for the
project.

votes.
After these votes were deleted, Lillie
said, Venable and Killough had 61
percent of the vote.
"When you consider the fact that
(the ballot) clearly stated juniors only
. . . and furthermore, looking at the
statistics here, 1 don't see his complaint
as affecting the election," Lillie said. "As
far as The Phoenix is concerned, there's
nothing 1 can do in that situation."
Dan Cowhig, co-editor of The Pho
enix, said a production or editing error
had caused an omission of the article
about Courtney and Miskavage that
was to appear in the paper's elections
edition.
Killough said she and Venable were
pleased and relieved with Lillie's
decision against a re-election.
Courtney said he wanted to congrat
ulate Venable and Killough on winning
the election. He also said he hoped they
would work as hard for the Senior Class
as they had promised.

Editors' Note: This is the third of a
four-part series on interstate bank
mergers in North Carolina:
By KELLI SLAUGHTER
Staff Writer
NCNB Corporation of Charlotte is
now the largest bank in the South,
having total assets of more than $22
billion, according to Rusty Page,
NCNB corporate communicator.
In January, NCNB completed a
merger with Bankers Trust of Colum
bia, S.C. NCNB's third merger since
November.
In December. NCNB Corporation
merged with Pan American Banks Inc.
of Miami, Fla., and Southern National
Bankshares Inc. of Atlanta, Ga.
With the completion of the mergers,
NCNB became the 24th largest bank
in the nation and the 14th most
profitable bank in the nation. Page said.
"First and foremost (the reason
NCNB is merging) is because we can,"
he said, referring to the regional
interstate banking laws that went into

"Clearly it is important, with the
advent of regional interstate banking,
to grow in terms of size so that when
and if national interstate banking
becomes a reality, we are able to
compete with the larger national
banks," Page said.
; NCNB had a 3-year and $5 billion
head start on other banks planning to
merge and grow, he said. In 1982 after
tiling for federal approval, NCNB was
able to acquire a small bank in Florida
because of a loophole and grandfather
clause in Florida law.
Page said the geographical deregu
lation laws were giving "those banks in
the Southeast a chance to grow by
merging, " developing larger banks of
capital and networks."
. Individual and corporate customers
can benefit from the added competition,
he said. Competition is always good for
better rates, products and services.
Customers will eventually be able to
go into any branch for any financial
service, he said. NCNB is looking at
having personal lines of insurance and
brokerage services in the future.
"The large banks will become finan
cial centers," Page said. There will be
more of a trust and convenience factor
involved between customers and their
neighborhood branches.
Page said NCNB was interested in
moving into the growth markets
centers of business, commerce and
population. He said the Southeast, or
Sunbelt, was where people were relo
cating to live and work and was an area
ol economic diversity.
Despite the corporation's recent
mergers, Page said: "We will not be
involved in any major acquisitions in
1986. In 1987 we may begin to look
North, after we have adjusted to the
present mergers."
Page said NCNB would probably
look to growth markets in Virginia,
Tennessee and the Washington
Baltimore area.
In November, the Board of Gover
nors of the Federal Reserve System
approved simultaneously NCNB's appli
cations to acquire the three southern
banks.
Hugh McColl, chairman of NCNB
Corporation, said the mergers with the
Florida, Georgia and South Carolina
banks "will mean expanded products
and services for banking customers and

The Pan American Banks Inc. merger
added 50 NCNB branches to Florida
and $1.7 billion in assets to the cor
poration. There are now approximately
220 NCNB branches in Florida, making
it the state's fourth-largest bank.
--The Southern National Bankshares
Inc. merger gave NCNB 6 branches in
DeKalb, County (Atlanta) and $93
million in assets to NCNB Corporation.
The Bankers Trust merger gave NCNB
110 branch offices in 45 cities serving
22 counties throughout South Carolina
and $2.1 billion in assets to the
corporation.
NCNB Corporation now has a total
of 581 bank branches across the
Carolinas, Georgia and Florida.
