On Super Tuesday, March 8,
1988, North Carolina and 12 other
Southern states holding presidential
-mmaries may be crucial in deciding
the Democratic presidential
nomination.
But Super Tuesday may not have
the strong impact its designers hoped
it would for three reasons:
n earlier contests in Iowa and New
Hampshire mean presidential candi
dates will spend more time and
money there than in the South;
a voter turnout will be low
because the presidential primary will
Marines
From Associated Press reports
WASHINGTON The Marine
Corps, cooperating with the State
Department, said Monday it has
agreed to replace all 28 security
guards at the U.S. Emabassy in
Moscow with other Marines as a
special precaution.
The move follows the disclosure
that two former guards are suspected
of repeatedly allowing Soviet agents
in the embassy late at night in what
has been called a critical breach of
security.
Meanwhile, Pentagon sources

B the South lacks a politically

Democratic political leaders want

sergeant for fraternization with a

The sources, who asked not to be
named, previously disclosed that
both Bracy and Sgt. Clayton J.
Lonetree became involved with
Soviet women who worked at the
embassy.
The sources said Bracy's reduction
in rank came last August, but it did
not attract any special attention until
investigators began probing Lone
tree's activities earlier this year.
ton Chiles, D-Fla., the committee's
chairman, would cut the deficit by
$37 billion in 1988. President Rea

deficit by $36 billion.
The plan does not specify which
taxes would be increased, but Chiles
said the committee would not
increase income tax rates.

forum to meet the candidates and
ask them questions.

Super Tuesday will work, said Merle
Black, associate professor of political

"This whole thing is based on the
assumption that there's a South,"
Black said. "There are lots of
Southern states, but there may not
be a South."
Beyle said a Southerner would
probably appear on the final ticket,
from either party or from both
parties.
So far, no Southern Democrats
have announced their candidacy for
president.
Moscow
The Marine Corps stressed none
of the guards currently posted in
Moscow is suspected of wrongdoing.
But it said in a joint statement with
the State Department it would
replace all guards sometime in April.
The Marine Corps said the guards
would be transferred to the head
quarters of their parent command at
the Marine base at Quantico, Va.,
where Bracy and Lonetree are being
held.
The State Department said last
week it had launched a wide-ranging

however, may bear the tax burden.

to balance the budget, Reagan would
certainly veto any plan involving a
tax hike, Keech said.

From Associated Press reports
MOSCOW British Prime

about seeking better relations

Thatcher took Gorbachev to

The Reagan administration,

brings the revenue projections up
and makes things look better," Wilde

Reagan's plan would raise money

Dollar's drop worries investors
NEW YORK A historic
plunge in the dollar's value put
a scare into bull markets around
the world Monday as investors
worried about an unrestrained
decline in the U.S. currency and
the outside chance of a trade war.
The prices of stocks and bonds
plunged in Tokyo, London and
New York in reaction to the
dollar's fall. The U.S. currency hit
its lowest point against the Jap
anese yen since modern exchange
rates were established in the late
1940s after World War II.
"It would be different than having
a tax, which would stay in effect year
to year and provide a continuous
help to reducing the deficit," Wilde
said.
Chiles' proposal also calls for a
reduction in federal spending equal
to the tax increases.
Medicare costs, energy and envir
onmental programs and aid to
farmers would face cutbacks.
"It (Chiles' plan) asks everyone to
give a little bit to achieve its goals,"
Keech said.

drug enforcement and where it is

The Koala Karnival will be held
on Thursday from 1 1 a.m. to 2 p.m.
in the Pit. It will include several
participatory booths like the koala
toss, koala darts and the koala drug
wheel of knowledge, designed to
educate students about drugs.
"Before participating in any of the
booths, you have to answer a drug
trivia question," Zorn said.
Also included in the Koala Kar
nival will be "convince a koala," a
panel of former UNC athletes who
will hear arguments about how to
"say no" from students.
G105 will very likely broadcast live
from the Pit during the Karnival,
Zorn said.
Amendment
may have effect
on protesters
By REBECCA NESBIT
Staff Writer
Rep. Joe Hackney has decided to
present an amendment to the
General Assembly that would make
it harder for UNC-System students
arrested in campus demonstrations
to escape prosecution in court.
On March 13, Orange-Chatham
District Attorney Carl Fox proposed
the amendment to Hackney, who
represents Orange and Chatham
counties.
If Fox's amendment is passed, the
number of UNC administrators who
have the authority to verify in court
that Fordham ordered student pro
testers to leave school property
would be expanded to include
Donald Boulton, vice chancellor for
student affairs; Fred Schroeder,
dean of students; Robert Sherman,
UNC director of security services;
and Maj. Charles Mauer, chief
security officer for University police.
