A growing trend in U.S. medicine
involving natural healing techniques
has manifested itself in Chapel Hill,
as the city's naturopathic population
rises to two.
The Community Wholistic Health
Center in Carrboro recently hired its
first naturopath, Susan Delaney, a
UNC alumna.
Naturopathic medicine views the
patient as a three-part combination
of body, mind and spirit. To under
stand how a patient functions, all
parts of an individual should be con
. sidered in the context of his environ
ment. Isolating any one aspect for
consideration could impede the
healing process.
"I am a physician of natural
. medicine," Delaney said. "Instead of
using drugs or surgery to heal a
person, we use natural means. This
includes diet, exercise, counseling
and nutritional supplements. We're
also trained in body manipulation,
like massages."
Naturopaths try to stimulate the

stadeet seeteecedl for hmm
to institute criminal proceedings
against any student found guilty of
hazing. Buck said.
According to North Carolina law,
hazing is illegal.
Jones was convicted of assaulting
three Omega Psi Phi pledges, Buck
said. Jones beat the pledges with a
2-by-4 block of wood during a hazing
incident in March 1986, he said.
North Carolina A&T has sus
pended the Omega Psi Phi fraternity
chapter through 1990, Buck said.
The university suspended Omega Psi
Phi in 1984 in connection with
man. Weirick is suspected of espion
age while working as a security guard
at the American consulate in Lenin
grad in 1981 and 1982, Sims said.
At the Pentagon, Sims declined to
elaborate on the specific nature of
the allegations concerning Weirick
beyond saying the Marine had
become involved with Soviet women
while posted to Leningrad.
But other Pentagon officials,
speaking on condition of anonymity,
said military investigators now
believe that Weirick "got some

"Basically, our first rule of thumb
is to do no harm to a person," she
said.
There are about six naturopaths
with naturopathic degrees in North
Carolina, and at least 500 nation
wide. The numbers are small because
only seven states have licensing
boards which protect naturopaths,
Delaney said.
"We're in the early stages, like
chiropractors were 40 years ago," she
said. "We're considered weird."
Naturopathy is about 200 years
old and originated in Germany, she
said.
Delaney said naturopaths don't
regard doctors with medical degrees
as the enemy, but they feel that
people turn to surgery and drugs too
quickly to solve their health
problems.
"Overall, I think this country is
not very healthy," Delaney said. "W

another hazing violation, he said.
In an attempt to keep hazing
minimal, North Carolina A&T has
reduced the pledge period from four
weeks to two, and eliminated the !!
pledge period, Buck said.
Buck said he meets with pledge
trainers and advisers to explain
university hazing policy immediately
before the pledge period starts. He
also meets with all prospective
pledges separately to explain the
policy.
It is not UNC policy to prosecute
hazing cases in criminal court, said
Beth Furr, assistant dean of students
have allowed access to the consulate;

access."
The arrest of Sgt. Clayton J.
Lonetree in December triggered the
current military investigation, which
has so far led to three other arrests.
Lonetree and Cpl. Arnold Bracy,
who worked together as Moscow
embassy guards in 1985 and 1986,
have been charged with espionage.
Staff Sgt. Robert S. Stufflebeam
was charged Wednesday with three
counts of improperly fraternizing
with Soviet women. He was not

people are changing their lifestyle."
Dr. Jerry Furman of Chapel Hill
said he doesn't know a lot about
naturopathy, but there are a lot of
people who could benefit from it.
"Traditional Western medicine
isnt the only answer," he said. "I like
the concept (of naturopathy), but I
haven't seen a lot of studies on it.
The only thing that concerns me is
the medical legal aspect of it."
The American Medical Associa
tion has no official stance about
naturopathy, said Bill Silberg, a
spokesman for the AMA.
The National College of Naturo
pathic Medicine in Portland, Ore.,
and the John Bastyr College of
Naturopathic Medicine in Seattle,
Wash., are the only two schools in
the United States that offer naturo
pathic degrees.
Delaney attended the Oregon
school.

pathic school are similar to other

at UNC. Hazing cases can be turned
over to the district attorney's office
if the case warrants it, but hazing
problems at UNC are handled
mainly through the campus judicial
system, Furr said.
UNC takes action against the
fraternity or sorority involved, since
the members involved are presumed
to be acting as officers of the
organization, Furr said.
Though there has not been a major
hazing incident since 1979, Furr said
there is a lot of mental hazing going
on.

arrested as a result of the Lonetree
probe.
The Marine Corps has accused
Lonetree and Bracy of allowing
Soviet agents to enter the U.S.
Embassy on numerous occasions
and escorting them through high
security offices and communications
facilities.
Although Weirick was arrested as
a result of the continuing probe of
Lonetree, there was no connection
between the two cases, Sims said.

medical schools," she said. "We
studied anatomy, physiology, chem
istry, immunology and so forth. In
your third and fourth years you take
courses in your specialized area."
Some areas are acupuncture,
homeopathy, manipulation of the
body, nutritional and herbal med
icine and hydrotherapy, she said.
Delany studied homeopathy,
which uses remedies derived from
animals and plants.
After graduating in 1984, Delaney
left for India where she studied with
a famous homeopath, Dr. Jugal
Kishora, for a year and a half.
Delaney said she got interested in
naturopathy because she felt some
thing was missing in traditional
medicine.
"I felt we were just putting Band
aids on most of the problem, that
we weren't getting to the root of what
was troubling them," she said. "We
work with people on a much deeper
level (than regular doctors do). We
deal with the person and what's
going on in their life to solve their
problem."

Justice official was suspicious
of North, FBI Director says
From Associated Prs reports
WASHINGTON A Justice
Department official expressed
suspicions as early as last October
nearly a month before public
disclosure of the Iran-contra
affair that Lt. Col. Oliver
North eventually could come
under criminal investigation, FBI
Director William Webster told
Congress on Wednesday.
Webster acknowledged reading
an Oct. 30 FBI memo which
outlined speculation by the Jus

was later fired from his post as
a National Security Adviser aide
at the White House.
Holding off IRA contributions
WASHINGTON Only
slightly deterred by confusion
about a new law, taxpayers are
grabbing their last chance to
make a universally tax-deductible

For most people, April 15 is

tax return. It also is the last date
for claiming an IRA deduction
for 1986.

regulations that require all U.S.
universities whose students receive
federal financial aid to tell the U.S.
Department of Education by July 1
what they are doing to combat
substance abuse.
Specifically, all universities, UNC
CH included, must have a drug
abuse prevention program for all
faculty, employees and students at
the university.
The University has a program to
combat drug abuse on campus, but
as it stands now, it applies only to
students. To meet the new federal
guidelines, the program must apply
to faculty and staff as well.
The other 15 schools in the UNC
system have the same problem,
according to David Whichard,
chairman of the drug policy
committee.
"We're reviewing the policy of
each university," he said. "I don't
know of any institution yet with a
policy that applies to faculty and
staff. But most of these policies could
meet the (federal) requirements with
a slight modification."
UNC-system President CD.
Spangler has asked the 16 system
chancellors to submit , their drug
abuse programs to him by June 15,
two weeks before the U.S. Depart
ment of Education deadline, Whi
chard said. Spangler will then pass
the proposals on to the committee,
which will review them and possibly
suggest changes, he said.

New findings on Alzheimer's
NEW YORK - A study of
Alzheimer's disease patients has
found they carry an extra copy
of part of the chromosome linked
to Down's syndrome, strengthen

plays a key role in Alzheimer's,
a researcher reported Wednesday.
The report will help focus

to deal with faculty drug abuse,
Whichard said.
"I think some of our faculty
colleagues, having gone through the
60s, consider recreational use of
marijuana okay," he said.
Richard Robinson, chief counsel
of the committee, said that some
members of the faculty who have
tenure escape notice when they abuse
drugs.
"We've got people on retirement
disability just because they're alco
holics," he said. "If someone has a
problem he cant do his job
because of alcohol you put him
on disability and send him on his
way. There's a total breakdown of
the tenure system."
Only seven tenured faculty
members in the UNC-system have
been fired since 1972, he said. About
half of the professors in the system
have tenure.
Mclntyre said it was unclear
whether a UNC professor who
smoked a joint in Myrtle Beach,
S.C., could be fired for doing so,
since he is not on campus.
But Robinson presented a more
' serious hypothetical example.
"If you had a faculty member
selling drugs off campus, that would
permit the inference that this per
son's not the kind of person you want
teaching at a university," he said.
"One of the three grounds for firing
faculty, tenured or untenured, is
misconduct. Drug abuse would be
construed as misconduct."
