TUNC grounp to protest state drinking laws

In protest of the state's alcohol
laws, UNC members of the Beer
Rights Union plan to march every
Sunday on campus and hope to hold
a statewide march as well.
"If we keep doing it every Sunday,
then they 11 know we're serious," said
J.D. Watson, a UNC freshman and
co-chairman of BRU.
BRU wants to coordinate with

I "A university, by its very nature,
is supposed to be a place of light,
of liberty and of learning," he said.
A liberal arts education gives stu
dents a chance to examine their
beliefs and prejudices, to learn to
think and solve problems and to
learn about others and what they
believe in.
"Each of us are to learn who we
are, and having learned who we are,
be willing to share, to maintain our

health care and job training also
emerged as needs that the town is
not adequately fulfilling for its
citizens.
The Board will submit a list of
perceived needs and suggestions for
meeting them to the Chapel Hill
Town Council for review.
Mary Bridgers of the Day Care
Services Association said that
although day-care allows families to
be self-supporting, it is expensive.
"In 1985, the average yearly
income in the families that we serve
was $8,600, with three family
members," she said.
Day Care Services Association
was formed by the United Way to
allocate money for day-care scholar
ships. "Without our help, these
people would spend 30 to 60 percent
of their gross income on child care,"
she said. "Our assistance helps
families to be self-supporting by
other North Carolina campuses to
hold a march at the Capitol building
in Raleigh early next year, he said.
East Carolina University, which has
an active protest group, held a
demonstration Oct. 30.
"The people at ECU are real pissed
about the law," Watson said. "They
read an Associated Press article in
the newspaper where BRU suggested
people protest by drinking water out
of beer bottles. They had a demon-

Boulton said he sees the wides
pread protests of the late 1960s
becoming prevalent again. "We are
at a crossroads," he said. "We have
to find out what we're here for and
what we're about. That's why human
rights are so important."
The University commmunity

members, Boulton said. "We need
to take more advantage of the
opportunities we've got, wherever
they exist."

"WeVe been gaining about 175
seats each semester," he said. Appel
baum said the average class size is
about 40 students, so the additional
seats mean adding almost four or five
additional sections.
Appelbaum said students who
really intend to take the course
would not be harmed. "It's our way
of recovering reserved seats that
aren't being used," he said.
"Most students who are dropped
this way pre-registered but didn't
come back to school," he said, "or
they pre-register for Psych 10 for the
fall semester, then take it in summer

Karen Korby represented Chapel
Hill Day Care Center, which
received some of the United Way
funding. While maintaining that
there were enough day-care facilities
in Chapel Hill, she echoed others
comments that it was prohibitively
expensive.
Even when funding is available,
some parents aren't aware of it, she
said.
"It can be devastating not to know
where to go I see a need in the
community to inform parents of
available funding," she said. "Day
care directors will be instrumental in
bringing about assistance and edu
cating parents about it."
For another organization, the
participants ranked the four top
needs in the community as: 1)
affordable housing; 2) accessible,

About 500 people attended that
demonstration, named the "Drink

head of ECU Students In Protest
(SIP). They plan to join BRU from
UNC to protest in Raleigh, he said.
The group's first UNC march will
be held Sunday if it doesn't rain, said
BRU's other co-chairman, Comet
(his full name). It will begin at the
Pit at 2 p.m. and proceed counter
clockwise around the campus, "to
represent the turning back of time,"
he said.

Election

Staff Writer
With the election for the 4th
District congressional seat over,
campaign managers from both sides
are thinking about what to do next.
John King, who ran Republican
Rep. Bill Cobey's campaign in 1984
and 1986, was a YMCA director for
21 years. He said he was not very
active in politics in high school and
college, though he was elected
student body vice president at
Georgia State.
"I did enjoy the little amount of
politics I was involved in," he said.
He said he did not expect to be
a campaign manager but was asked
to join the Cobey campaign in 1982
to serve as financial director, the year
Cobey lost to Democrat Ike
Andrews. He was hired mostly for
his fund-raising talents, he said.
"I was financial director until
August of 1984, when the old
campaign manager was fired. He

requests for information have been
for 'housing, financial advice, child

the group can do that, it will have

Both organizations also want 18

"We wjant to go after the Repub

Watson, Saying the law is their fault.
He said the law violates civil fights

it is also a matter of states' rights.

(Cobey) then asked me to run the
campaign, King said.
King said the only campaign he
was involved in before Cobey's was
Jimmy Carter's presidential cam
paign in 1976. Before he met Cobey,
he said he considered himself more
of a Southern Dixiecrat than a
Republican. His work on the Carter
campaign was because of "family
connections with the Carters in
southern Georgia." j
Cobey was president of the Chapel
Hill YMCA when he hired King to
be executiv director. King left the
YMCA in 11981 to work on fund
raising projects. After Cobey was
elected in "1984, King f served as
administrative assistant .in his con
gressional cjffice. He said the job
involved keeping the , "campaign
structure" together.
King said one reason why Cobey
lost his re-election bid against
Democrat David Price was that

atives of the passengers on a
crowded ferry boat that sank off
La Gonave Island gathered on the
beach here Wednesday to await
word of their families. At least
131 people drowned or were
missing and feared dead, officials
said.
The ferry, a 50-foot-long

from a wharf in Anse-a-Galets on
La Gonave.
Tuesday was market day on La

Freed captives return home
PARIS Joy over the release
of two French hostages held in
Lebanon was tempered Wednes
day by speculation that the
kidnappers, Iran or Syria, may
raise the price of freedom for
those who remain.
The return home Tuesday of
Camille Sontag, 85, and Marcel

of French captives to five that

have freed this year.
At least five still are held.
Coudari corroborated previous
reports that a sixth French kidnap

King said he did not think Reagan
swayed many voters. "Naturally,
Reagan's popular, but just because
he endorsed Bill Cobey doesn't mean
they are going to vote for Bill
Cobey," said King.
With the election over, King said
he is working on finding jobs for all
the full-time staff members. He also
said he is considering Various offers
to help organize other campaigns.
Rep. Jack Kemp of New York had
approached him about organizing
the Southeast for his possible pre

"Once you're in the cycle and win,
you are exposed to a lot of oppor

lose, you develop some contacts. It
opens up a lot of doors for you."
