Athletes who park at Ehring
haus Residence Hall to eat at the
hall's training table are causing
parking problems, according to
residents and dormitory govern
ment officials.
Residents who own parking
permits for Ehringhaus's K lot
can't find spaces and must park
illegally during that time, said
Morgan Temple, a resident
assistant in Ehringhaus.
"It's ridiculous," he said. "If
you pay for a K lot permit, then
you ought to be able to park in
K lot and you shouldn't have to
keep paying for your permit in
tickets."
The traffic office does not
ticket for permitted spaces
between 1 1 a.m. and 2 p.m. in
the lot, according to Mary Fox,
parking control coordinator.
Tickets are written for cars
parked in the fire lanes, she said.
But athletes have never been
told by anyone in the athletic
department they can park at
Ehringhaus without a permit,
said William Scroggs, liaison
between the traffic office and the
athletic department. "We've
asked the traffic office that if
there's room in the Ehringhaus
parking lot during lunch time
that they not ticket," he said. "It's
been an arrangement for years
and years.
"This isn't something that is
a privilege to the athletes," he
said. "It's more an understanding
between the traffic office and the

The student body president should
not have the privilege to appoint
students directly to chancellor's and
v ice chancellor's committees, accord
ing to a resolution approved by
Chancellor Christopher Fordham
recently.
The resolution instead allows for
the student body president to nom
inate one-and-a-half times the
number of available positions. The
administrator who oversees the
particular committee would select
from those nominees. Administra
tors may request more nominations.
Fordham's resolution came in
response to Student Body President
Bryan Hassel's Oct. 6 proposal to
make direct appointments to the
committees.
Hassel said Thursday he did not
agree with the resolution. He said

Ten of the best bands from the
state, such as The Connells, The
Graphic and Flat Duo Jets, will play
Cat's Cradle Saturday in an all-day
concert to raise money for WXYC.
Ticket sales from Cat's Cradle
Benefit for WXYC will go to manu
facturing a live tape of the concert.
Richard Fox, part-owner of the
Chapel Hill music club, will record
the show and mix the tape. Down
town record stores will sell it, and
the proceeds will go to new equip
ment for the campus radio station.
The concert will raise money for
the station's future, said Bill Burton,
station manager of WXYC. Last
month Student Congress approp
riated money to buy a new control
board for the station, but WXYC
had to pay for the installation of the

back in effort to gain
he hoped to meet with Fordham this
month to find a compromise
proposal.
Fordham said allowing adminis
trators to ask for more nominations
was fair. "I think this proposal gave
the student body president solid
participation." Fordham said in a
telephone interview Thursday.
But Hassel said the resolution was
adopted before he could discuss
possible amendments with Ford
ham. Hassel had sent Fordham a
letter on Oct. 21 explaining why he
did not like the proposed resolution
and suggesting amendments to it, he
said.
"I guess he'd already made up his
mind there wouldn't be any chance
of change." Hassel said.
Hassel said he had talked to his
executive assistants and had sent
proposal copies to other student
leaders. "We weren't satisfied with
rock the
console. This cost brought the
station's budget close to the min
imum level it is allowed to keep,
Burton said.
A lot of the equipment dates back
to 1977 when the station was just
starting out, Fox said. The equip
ment all works but it is not state of
the art, he said.
WXYC, a noncommercial station,
could be the best sounding station
in the Triangle, Fox said. Commer
cial stations blare out their signal in
an attempt to gain listener's atten
tion, sacrificing a clear quality
sound, he said.
Fox hopes to raise $3,000 to
$4,000 from tape sales for the station.
Fox's association with WXYC in
his college days is one of the reasons
he decided to have the benefit
concert. He is former chief engineer
of the station. He and Burton started

Graham, the patrolman investigat
ing the wreck.

he said.

Meeting
By SCOTT GREIG

An ordinance that would give
Chapel Hill police the power to close
down merchants who sell alcohol
during-situations like the Aug. 31
bash on Franklin Street was pro
posed Thursday by Chapel Hill
Police Chief Harold Stone.
Sixteen representatives from the
town, the U mversity and the business
community met in the Student
Union to voice their concerns about
the growing problem of crowd
control and management in Chapel
Hill during large celebrations that
spill over into downtown.
The discussion centered on pos
sible, solutions to the problems that
arose during the Aug. 31 downtown
Franklin Street "party." Many
young people had used the event to
protest the rise in the legal drinking
age for beer and wine from 19 to
21, which went into effect at
midnight.
During that time police charged
12 people, including five UNC
students, with various offenses.
Fifteen people were treated for
injuries, and damage to downtown
Chapel Hill was estimated at
SI 5,000.
The recommendation to close
down alcohol vendors, the most
controversial of all the solutions
proposed at the meeting, came from
the counter-proposal."
The letter suggested that chosen
students be from the original nom
inations, Hassel said, and that the
selecting official not be allowed to
request other nominations.
"The selection process as it is now
ignores the time and effort we put
into selecting those nominations," he
said.
The letter also suggested that an
extra step be added to the selection
process requiring the appointing
officer to write the student body
president and state his reasons for
requesting more nominations.
"If they ever wanted to go against
choices I'd made in anybody, they
should explain it in writing," he said.
"They should have a reason."
Before the resolution was
approved, all nominations were
approved by either Fordham,
Donald Boulton, vice chancellor and
Cradle all day for
in 1981 "Northern Hemisphere
Live," the station's talk show.
"It is one of the best radio stations
in the country of its type," Fox said.
An article on college radio in the
Sept. 25 issue of Rolling Stone
magazine featured Burton and
WXYC.
"We want to involve XYC with
our future," said Frank Heith, the
other part-owner of Cat's Cradle.
"The club is a live version of what
they have over there (at WXYC)."
The bands are donating their time
and energy to the concert, but will
get free exposure on the tape, Heith
said. "It will be used as a marketing
tool for the bands."
Fox, who has recorded Modern
English, the Golden Palominos, and
others, will give each band a copy
of its set and let the group pick out
two songs to put on the tape. With

Hospital in Greensboro at 8:35 a.m.
and was pronounced dead from
multiple trauma at 11:51 a.m.
Ney was in critical condition at
Cone Hospital Thursday night, said
a hospital spokesman.
Thomas and Ney, a sophomore,
were roommates in Granville Towers
East. They were returning to Chapel
Hill after a visit home to Albemarle
when Ney ran the stop sign.
Kimberly Terry of Siler City drove
the other car. She and her husband,
Thomas Terry, who was also in the
car, were taken to Chatham County
Hospital in Siler City. Thomas Terry
was later transferred to Cone Hos
targets morisings
the Chapel Hill Police Department,
Stone said. The ordinance would
allow police to ask merchants who
sell alcohol to close their businesses
when alcohol use worsens the crowd
control problem.
They would use it only in "special
situations," he said.
UNC Student Body President
Bryan Hassel questioned the possible
wording of such an ordinance,
asking how the ordinance would
define a "special situation."
But Stone said he did not feel it
would ever be necessary to use such
an ordinance, because the merchants
always cooperate with the Police
Department's requests.
Major Arnold Gold of the Police
Department said things usually get
out of hand as the night wears on
because people begin to feel the
effects of the alcohol and tempers
begin to flare.
"There's just too much alcohol
involved," Gold said.
While town representatives
arrived at no concrete solutions at
the meeting, Donald Boulton, vice
chancellor and dean of student
affairs, said the meeting offered the
chance to air feelings and suggest
actions to counter problems during
large celebrations.
Mike Helpingstine, owner of
Johnny T-Shirt at 128 E. Franklin
St., called the Aug. 31 party more
direct appointments
dean of student affairs, or Farris
Womack, vice chancellor for busi
ness and finance.
The controversy stems from
Womack's rejection in September of
Marty Leary, who spoke against the
former campus food service, to the
Food Service Advisory Committee.
Womack had not explained his
actions in writing.
But Fordham said he did not think
there should be limits on officers
power to select committee members,
especially on their own committees.
"I don't think that's a terribly
important issue, because I don't
think it will happen that often," he
said. "I haven't rejected a presidential
nomination that 1 know of."
Hassel disagreed. "(Fordham)
wasn't willing to accept having to
explain things in writing," he said.

10 bands playing, there will be 20
tracks of some of North Carolina's
best music on one tape. As an added
bonus Let's Active will donate two
songs from its performances Oct. I
and 2 at Cat's Cradle, Fox said.
Fox said the tape will be a "true
live recording." Most live tapes on
the market are dubbed to give the
music a studio-like sound, he said.
Many of the bands playing at the
concert have a lot of energy on stage,
but they cannot bring it out on studio
recordings. Fox said. He hopes his
recording will capture the bands'
energy.
The tentatively titled "XYC Cra
dle Tapes" will run 90 minutes on
a high quality cassette. Burton said.
Tapes will probably be sold for $10.
Burton said the compilation tape will
be available in time for Christmas.
The music will begin promptly at

of a release than a protest.
"It was the type of situation where
people came out and planned to have
a good time, just as a release, and
I think the students handled them
selves in an orderly manner, but I
also think there were a lot of out-of-towners
there who were starting
most of the trouble," Helpingstine
said.
"Someone starts it by throwing a
bottle, and someone next to him
throws one because they've seen this
other person do it, and they know
they're not going to get caught, so
they do it," he said.
Boulton described Chapel Hill as
"a true university town," and said
he did not feel there was a fine line
between the campus and the
community.
He added that events like the one
on Aug. 31 were going to spill over
into the surrounding area.
"Our right to protest is one that
we highly cherish," said Fred
Schroeder, dean of students. "That
right, however, does not include the
uncherished right of destruction of
property, which is what happened on
Sunday (Aug. 31)."
Schroeder said some way has to
be found to contain spontaneous
celebrations when they spill over into
the town to decrease the possibility
