Although. I was doing 85 mph
on the highway, my car was
equipped with a radar detector
so the last thing I expected was
flashing blue lights. The detector
hadn 't saved me this time. I slowed
the Porsche, pulled to the side of
the road, and warily watched the
policeman approach from his car.
"Well, little lady, now where are

who can establish an alibi.
Scherstrom said she asked for
the names of the defense witnesses
prior to Fenner's indictment but
did not receive them. She made
a formal demand for them Friday,
invoking Maryland state law.
Worshtil said he will comply with
the request.
Prosecutors have at least one
witness who selected Fenner from
photos as the man who shot Leach
and Robinson.
In Fenner's sophomore season,
the 6-4, 222-pound tailback led the
Atlantic Coast Conference in
rushing with 1,250 years. He set
a single-game ACC rushing record
by rolling up 328 yards against
Virginia last November.
Jrnner was suspended from the
IC team m DcwniWH
of academic deficiencies. Coach
Dick Crum did not allow Fenner
to accompany the Tar Heels to
Hawaii for their Aloha Bowl game
against Arizona.
Fenner was declared academi
cally ineligible and returned home
to Maryland soon thereafter,
enrolling in six credit hours of
correspondence courses in the
spring semester. Fenner had
enrolled in the first summer school
session, attempting to earn his way
back onto the team at the time
of bis arrest.
Paint Day
from page 2
Incoming students who have
come to sessions of the C-TOPS
orientation program have already
had the opportunity to select their
paint - color from the housing
department's color chart, he said,
but students who haven't chosen
a color can still get paint from
housing when they arrive on
campus.

asked.
According to traffic statistics,
-many people in North Carolina
must be in a hurry. In 1986, 54
percent of all moving violations
were blamed on speeders.
N.C. Highway Patrol Sgt. Don
McLean said he does not believe
that the new 65 mph speed limit
will curb the speed at which
Admissions
He gave an example of a high
school valedictorian who had an
outstanding record but hadn't
completed a half-unit of physical
science before he graduated. In
such a situation, Strickland said,
we ought to be able to admit that
student, contingent on that he
takes a similar course here."
The BOG is allowing flexibility
in the standards for the next two
years so high school students will
have an extra two years to prepare

"If anything, this will give some
speeders an excuse to drive even
faster," he said.
McLean said there has been no
word as yet about formal enforce
ment policies for the law change,
which will probably be imple
mented on state roads by the end
of summer.

for the new requirements. For the
years 1988-89, the UNC-system
will be using a modified set of
requirements that admits students
lacking a course in social studies,
mathematics, or science.
Then, in 1990, the full set of
requirements go into effect.
During the interim period,
intensified efforts will be made to
inform students and their families
about the new minimum
requirements.

with speeders, McLean said.
"Obviously, someone who is tra
veling at 66 mph and weaving in
and out of traffic will be stopped
before someone driving a constant
70 mph in the driving (right-hand)
lane."
James T. Sughrue, special
assistant to the secretary of trans
portation, said the speed limit
change will only be implemented
on a few carefully chosen roads.
"The traffic engineering depart
ment of the Department of Trans
portation is preparing a report on
the matter," Sughrue said. "We
will only approve the safest and
least-congested roads for 65."
Sughrue said he is concerned

increase in the speed limit.
There is a case to be made for
both sides of the new law," he said.
"I just hope that when the police
enforce the law they say, '65 means
65.' "
Sughrue added that the manda
tory seat belt law will probably aid
in reducing highway fatalities.
"If we want to be completely
safe from highway deaths, we will
have to stay at home," he said.

I waited until he drove off in the
opposite direction before I floored

zero to 85 in 10 seconds flat.
