RALEIGH President Reagan
called the race between Sen. Jim
Broyhill and former N.C. governor
Terry Sanford a "make or break
election" Wednesday, saying the
outcome will help determine which
party controls the U.S. Senate.
Reagan spoke to about 5,000
people at a rally for Broyhill in the
Raleigh Civic and Convention Cen
ter amidst balloons, banners and
bands.
Broyhill, who missed his rally to
vote on the impeachment of U.S.
District Judge Harry Claiborne,
appeared on a large screen television
via satellite. Broyhill said North
Carolina elected Reagan to keep the
country on the right track. He said
he stands up for Reagan's policies.
"If Terry Sanford had his way,
Walter Mondale and Geraldine
Ferraro would be running the coun
try today," he said. "It makes me
shudder to think about it."
Reagan also criticized Sanford,
calling the former governor a "pro"
at raising taxes.
"He was raising taxes when I was
still making movies," he said. "When
it comes to reruns 'Bedtime for
Bonzo' is better than Taxtime with
Terry"
The president, who is scheduled
to leave today for Iceland to meet
with Soviet General Secretary Mik
hail Gorbachev, said he hopes
Gorbachev will agree to hold the
summit in the United States.
"It's a challenge anytime two
leaders from major, powers get
together," he said. "In this case, we
will be laying the foundation for a
full-fledged summit, which, if things
go right in these preparatory ses
sions, will be held here in the United
States."
Reagan said bipartisan support
will give him strength when he and
Gorbachev meet.

way we as a free people pull

Lottery may spare sopMomdifls
By SUZANNE JEFFRIES
Staff Writer
Anxiety, frustration, hope just
a few feelings students may expe
rience when faced with long waiting
; lists after losing an ori-campus space
in the housing lottery.
But University housing officials
and staff are in the "talking and
planning stage" of a proposal that
could exempt rising sophomore
students from participating in the
lottery, Wayne Kuncl, director of
University Housing, said
Wednesday.
"It would guarantee all new
students admitted two years of
housing," Kuncl said. In addition,
freshmen living on campus and
wanting to live in the same residence
- hall would be guaranteed housing if
they sign up by a given date, he said.
Kuncl said students, parents and
faculty have talked with him about
how the current lottery .process is
' especially problematic for
sophomores.
"My concern is what I've heard
from students parents and
faculty about the . room-drawing
visMs M&Mgli to campspgp- for BroyM
together," he said. "I think the best
policy is America's time-tested
tradition of leaving politics at the
water's edge. It's great to know when
1 look over my shoulder that the
folks back home are with me. 1 won't
be seeing Republicans or Democrats,
IH be seeing Americans."
Reagan praised Broyhill, calling
him a "star player on the team," for
his role in promoting economic
growth and employment.
"In those dark days before the
1980 election when our government
was dominated by liberal politicians,
Jim fought courageously for sane
and responsible policies," he said.
"The American people knew who
was to blame. And this November
the tax, tax, spend, spend crowd is
going to find out that lighter-than-air
liberalism is no longer
fashionable."
Reagan said the United States has
had 46 months of economic growth
and North Carolina's unemployment
is down to 5.4 percent.
The president commended North
Carolina Reps. Howard Coble of the
6th District, Bill Hendon of the 11th
District, Alex McMillan of the 9th
District and Bill Cobey of the 4th
District, who "turned out to be real
heroes in some of the most crucial
economic battles of our time."
He also said, "Of course, there's
an individual whose very name
causes liberals to break out into a
nervous rash, a friend of mine, and
a champion of our cause, Senator
Jesse Helms."
Reagan said Broyhill has his
priorities straight and as the ranking
Republican on the House Energy
and Commerce Commission, is
dedicated to invigorating the U.S.
economy.
"(Broyhill) stood firm, and since
the recovery began over 1 1 .5 million
new jobs have been created in
America," Reagan said. "Now that's
what I call a Republican jobs
program."
The president said Broyhill sup-

Kuncl said he talked with Ray
Jones, Residence Hall Association
president, about the proposal last
year.
But Jones said: "He just broached
the idea with me. We haven't dis

officials and staff would make an
effort to contact RHA about the
proposal. - "It . would have
tremendous effect on the diversity of
residence halls," he said, v.?"

and possibly survey students to see

would be appropriate.

to implement the policy change
would be made sometime this semes

Student opinion about academic :
issues will be surveyed in residence
halls and classrooms Friday by;
student government members, said
executive assistant . Catherine
Cowan.
The survey solicits opinions on the
current academic deadlines, the
advising system, University informa
tion availability, the perspective
system and the freshman manual,
Cowan said.
Along with the survey, Cowan
said, the academic affairs committee
is contacting student associations
within departments,
. "(The associations, are) a way of
mobifizing more students to com-
'ment on specific; proposals for
academic policies," Cowan said.

proposal is being considered now

"I don't think (the proposal)
. would put any undue hardship on

the additional spaces," Kuncl said.

Cowan also said basic information
about courses, perspectives and
requirements of different UNC
schools is often difficult to obtain,
and the committee wants to distrib
ute this information.
Another committee idea is to
increase the number of Undergrad

students purchase them, she said..
The perspectives students must
fulfill to graduate also need evalua

Often students get shut put of
courses with a specific instructor and
professors are often faced with,
classes filled by students only trying
to fulfill perspectives.
