WASHINGTON President Rea
gan said Wednesday night he is "not
going to just sit still" amid mounting
threats against Americans and said he
suspects Libyan leader Moammar
Khadafy is behind surging terrorism.
At a nationally broadcast news
conference, Reagan called Khadafy the
"mad dog of the Middle East."
Reagan said his administration was
still seeking sufficient evidence to link
Khadafy to fatal bombings aboard a
TWA jetliner and in a West Berlin
, nightclub. "We're gathering evidence as
fast as we can," he said.
Earlier Wednesday Reagan told
newspaper editors he was seeking
support from U.S. allies for appropriate
action "in view of the greater threats
that are being uttered."
Vice President George Bush, talking
to sailors aboard the USS Enterprise
in the Gulf of Oman, had called the
Libyan strongman a "mad dog."
During his evening news conference,
Reagan said, "We have considerable
evidence over quite a long time that
Khadafy has been quite outspoken in
his participation and sponsoring terror
ist acts."
But asked whether he was ready to
announce military action in retaliation,
Reagan said: "We are not ready yet to
speak on that. Any action we might take
would be dependent on what we learn
and I can't go any further."

Changes in the Campus Y's leadership should be
considered, according to a resolution passed by the
Campus Y Advisory Board and sent to Vice Chancellor
and Dean of Student Affairs Donald A. Boulton.
The resolution was passed in February and sent to
Boulton for a response, according to Kim Reynolds, 1984
85 Campus Y co-president. Reynolds said she did not
know if Boulton had responded to the resolution.
The status of Campus Y Director Zenobia Hatcher
Wilson and Associate Director George Gamble will be
decided next week, 1985-86 Campus Y Co-president Mary
Scholl said Wednesday.
"Come August 15, our goal is to have effective
leadership at the Y,M Scholl said.
Boulton said he could not confirm when the decision
would be made.
"We're working on a lot of things," he said. "All that
we're talking about is personnel matters that are

Rape Statistics
In 1984, rapes comprised of seven
percent of all violent crimes in
America. The South as a region led
the nation in the number of
recorded forcible rapes in 1984.
There were 84,233 forcible rapes
in 1984 in the. United States. That
was a rise from 1983 number of
78,918.
North Carolina had 1,306 forci
ble rape offenses in 1983. There
were 1,301 in 1982. In North
Navy has taken steps to prepare a two
carrier battle group, including an
indefinite extension of the carrier Coral
Sea's employment if Reagan decides to
order a military strike against Libya.
On the issue of possible retaliation,
Reagan said: "This is a question that
is like talking about battle plans or
something. If and when we could
specifically identify someone as respon
sible for these acts, we would respond.
So this is what we are trying to do
to find out who's responsible."
Reagan began his news conference by
reading statements urging Congress
again to approve his $100 million aid
package for Nicaraguan rebels, with no
strings attached, and prodding lawmak
ers to get on with passing a federal
budget.
"I urge Congress to forget about
raising taxes and concentrate instead on
controlling spending," he said.
Reagan described the Sandinista
movement as "a totalitarian, communist
state," saying, "When have we ever seen
a communist government that has
achieved that totalitarian statehood . . .
voluntarily, and without some pressure
or force, give up their power."
The Democratic-controlled House is
scheduled next week to reconsider
Reagan's aid proposal. The House
defeated the package last month, but
it narrowly cleared the Republican
contolled Senate March 27.

confidential in every way."
Scholl said the Campus Y Advisory Board and co
presidents were working with Boulton and Assistant Vice
Chancellor of Student Affairs Edith Wiggins to assess
the options in dealing with the directors.
Advisory Board member Maria Young said the board
discussed Hatcher-Wilson and Gamble at their Wednes
day meeting and would continue the discussion next
Wednesday.
Scholl said the personnel problems between the Campus
Y director and associate director were not new.
"The problems began in the beginning of their
relationship," she said.
Gamble was fired without being told why last fall by
Hatcher-Wilson, but he was reinstated in November on
the condition that he sign a resignation letter dated May
15. '
Advisory Board chairman Leslie Garner said he did

Rape. Many people think it could
never affect them. Some try not to think
about it at all. But there are others -the
victims - who must think about it.
Jennifer, whose last name is withheld,
was a victim of rape when she was 17,
living in Mobile, Ala. Her assailant,
who carried a knife, shoved her into
the cab of a truck in a parking lot
outside a nightclub, where the two had
previously been dancing. The man then
raped Jennifer and was never found.
"At first you feel guilty, that it's your
fault, that you could have prevented it,"
she said. "Then you realize it's not you.
. . . Eventually you just get over it."
Counselors agree that each woman
deals with rape differently. Jennifer did
not seek help at a local crisis center,
although she said services were available
in her area. She chose to deal with
emotions about the rape on her own.
"1 just think well, it happened. Life
goes on. Or at least that's me. That's
the way 1 felt:"
Jennifer said that after being raped,
it took about six months before she
regained trust in other people. "You're
just scared of people. You're not as
open, not as friendly. . . . Every guy
that you see you think . . . would they
do something like that?"
In Chapel Hill, rape victims can find
support and information any time of
the day or night with a phone call to
the Orange County Rape Crisis Center.
The trained volunteers, or "compan
ions," who answer the crisis line will
be immediately available for help,

ARA Food Service' Director Connie
Branch said Wednesday that the
charges made against ARA in a student
government-sponsored report issued to
the Food Service Advisory Committee
this week were not valid.
"They can't substantiate the charges
they've made," Branch said. "IVe said
really all IVe got to say about it."
The report, "On the Need for a New
Campus Food Service," was compiled
by members of the executive and
legislative branches of student govern
ment, the Labor Support Group, the
Black Student Movement, and the '
Residence Hall Association.
The report calls for the removal of
ARA from the University because of
student opposition to the company as
measured by a referendum on the Feb.
4 ballot, and because of mistreatment
of employees.
"Food service employees as well as
of the center.
Companions talk to the victim, and
support the woman as she goes through
the stages of recovery, Chap said.
Companions may also accompany the
victim to the hospital for a physical
examination, she said, and to any court
procedures that may follow. Medical
and legal information is available and
counselors can refer the woman to other
counseling services in the community.
Calisa McKnight, a companion at the
center, said she acts as a friend and
confidante to rape victims rather than
a professional counselor. Because she
has worked with many victims, she said
she can reassure women that their
emotions are typical and should not
cause alarm.
Although companions try to inform
the victim about possible courses of
action, McKnight said, the woman will
be allowed to make her own decisions.
That is important, she said, to help
restore to the woman a sense of control
that rape often destroys.
Many rape victims, McKnight said,
tend to look for ways to blame them
selves for the incident. Many will say
they were out too late, drank too much,
or were wearing the wrong clothes.
McKnight said that companions
explain "poor judgment is not a rapable
offense," and that victims should not
blame themselves.
Seeing women gradually change their
ideas about rape and realize that they
did not cause it, McKnight said, helps
make her job worthwhile.
Information available through the
center empowers women by helping
them better understand what they are
experiencing, said McKnight. "They say
that ignorance is bliss," she said, "but
1 don't believe that."

"Dead" bodies lined the Pit at
noon Wednesday, as Students Tak
ing Action for Nuclear Disarmament
staged a dramatization of a nuclear
explosion.
STAND Co-chairman Ingrid
Brunk asked students to join in the
protest against U.S. involvement in
the arms race by "doing something
like dying."
A simulated explosion (actually a
balloon popping) sounded, and
about 50 students fell instantly to the
ground. Brunk and Matthew Tiede
mann then outlined the "dead"
bodies with chalk.
While music played, a silence hung
over the students as they staged the
results of a nuclear war. Student
Body President Bryan Hassel and
Campus Y Co-president Mary
Scholl were among the participants.
Suddenly, the silence broke, as
Allen Taylor and three other
members of the UNC College Repub
licans marched in the Pit. One
member carried a sign which read,
"With SDI You Too Can Live," and
Taylor carried a large umbrella with
"SDI" printed on the top.
"You guys have no damn respect,"
senior Herman Bennett yelled to
Taylor and the others who carried
signs advocating President Reagan's
Strategic Defense Initiative, better
known as "Star Wars."
One student in the crowd called
Taylor and the others "navel lint"
and "pond scum." Disarmament
students have much to gain from AR A's
departure," the. report states, '
Student Body President BryanHalsel
said the charges made against ARA in
the report stemmed from employee
allegations made to members of the
committee that authored the report.
ARA's handicapped employees are
not treated with respect and courtesy,
which violates the spirit of ARA's
contract with the University, the report
charges.
The report mentions as evidence of
mistreatment the recent firing without
notice of two handicapped ARA
employees and the confining of other
handicapped workers to the dishroom
prior to the initiation of the bidding
process for the food service contract.
Cindy Hahamovitch, one of the
report's authors, said, "That (the
treatment of handicapped employees)
was the first concern of employees we
talked to."
However, Charles C. Antle, Jr.,
makes them feel less alone and less
isolated, she said.
"(Women) don't need to keep it
bottled up inside themselves,"
McKnight said. There are issues that
need to be clarified, she said, and
counseling can do that.
She stressed that the center worked
under a strict policy of confidentiality.

cator at Student Health Service, said

He can be called the other victim.
He is the husband or boyfriend of a
rape victim. And according to Linda
Nettles, he should not be forgotten
about or pushed aside.
"Depending on the situation and the
man, he may experience tremendous
feelings," Nettles said. She is the
community education coordinator for
the Orange County Rape Crisis Center.
According to her, anger, guilt, fear
and frustration are some of the feelings
that people close to a rape victim may
experience.
"They may feel anger that this has
happened to someone they care about,"
she said. Nettles said the anger may even
be great enough for the person to seek
revenge to find out who did it and
seek justice.
Guilt is also a possible feeling that
a man who is close to a rape victim
may experience. "The victim is not the
only one who tends to blame herself,"
Nettles said. "The man may also feel
guilty because he wasn't there to protect
her or because he didn't do anything
to prevent it."

supporters then began' chanting
"Hell no to SDI."
Taylor replied, "That means
you're in favor of nuclear war, then."
Bennett led another 20 students
into the Pit to "play dead," as
STAND member Ginger Clough
read William Dickey's poem titled
"Armegeddon."
Tiedemann quoted Jonathan
Schell's "The Fate of the Earth"
saying, "Once we learn that a
holocaust might lead to extinction,
we have no right to gamble, because
if we lose, the game will be over,
and neither we nor anyone else will
ever get a chance."
"Every person is the right person
to act, and every moment is the right
moment, starting with the present
moment," Tiedemann quoted.
The goal of STAND'S demonstra
tion was to raise the awareness of
the possibility of a nuclear war such
as Hiroshima or Nagasaki, Tide
mann said.
The National Student Lobby Day
to end the arms race will be April
17 in Washington, D.C., he said, and
all students are invited to join. Of
the 700 to 800 students who partic
ipated last year, 35 were from Chapel
Hill.
Tiedemann said STAND will
lobby for three specific points to
senators and representatives: to
decrease spending on SDI; to begin
immediate negotiations for a Com
prehensive Test Ban Treaty; and to
stop all funding for potential first
strike weapons, such as the MX
missiles and Trident D-5 missiles.

recently been recognized for a good
employment record of handicapped
workers.
The report also charges that ARA
withheld scheduled pay increases.
Hassel said Branch had verified that
employees had not received pay
increases according to the scheduled
time.
Branch said Monday if an employee's
scheduled pay increase had been with
held, the money was being paid.
Another charge states: "ARA con
tinues to underpay its employees. For
example, employees working 10-15
years at Lenoir earn between $4 and
$5 an hour."
Hassel said the report's authors felt
that long-time food service employees

the student health center. A crisis center
companion is often called in for
support.
Although ideally there would be no
social stigma surrounding the issue,
McKnight said, that time has not yet
been reached.
People want to deny the problem of
rape, she said, and think "If I don't
talk about it, it'll go away.
"Unfortunately," she said, "we know
better."
" 'Will it happen again? Will it affect
our relationship? What will happen
now?' are all questions the man can ask
if he is experiencing fear," Nettles said.
"A man may develop a fear of the legal
and judicial systems, and how they will
affect his wife or girlfriend."
Another emotion that may be felt is
frustration. The man may find himself
asking what he can do or what he should
say.
And this is where it is very important
for him and other friends and family
to understand their role in the support
system the victim needs. "This support
can make the difference in how quickly
the victim can recover and how well
she can adjust," Nettles said.
It is critical for the victim to make
her own decisions and to go at her own
pace. Rather than ask questions and
make decisions for the victim, those
close to her should concentrate on being
a "good listener," according to Nettles.
And if-the man is having questions
and feels he needs help. Nettles said he
should call the Rape Crisis Centef to
talk to someone. "That's what we're here
for."
