" The Orange County Sheriff's
Department has made 18 arrests and
, recovered 280 grams of cocaine in
. connection with the undercover drug
probe it conducted with the State
Bureau of Investigation, Major Don
Truelove said Thursday.
The department has filed a total
of 71 charges against these suspects
- and still has outstanding warrants on
four others; he said.
' An SBI formula indicates that the
cocaine recovered in the investigation
is worth over $800,000, Truelove said.
The cocaine seized in the investiga
tion was on the average 50 percent
pure, he said, which is stronger than
most cocaine found on the street.

as the department had hoped and
should theoretically reduce the flow
of drugs in Orange County, Truelove
said.
"Frequent dealers have hopefully
slowed down . . . and realized the
potential of dealing in drugs is getting
caught," he said.
Optimally, the probe would slow
drug traffic noticeably over a long
term, but citizens should have a more
realistic view, Truelove said.
"Where money can be " made,
people will do whatever is necessary
to make money," he said.
In his 1 7 years of working on drug
related cases, Truelove said he has
noticed that the University has an
impact on drug traffic in Orange
County. Students do not usually deal
drugs, but people in the community,
recognize them as a source of demand
and supply them, he said.
The investigation did not concen

County, Truelove said. Arrests were
made in several different areas in the
county, he said.
The investigation was not moti
vated by any special reason or timing,
he said.
"We had the opportunity to move
forward, so we took it," he said.
The investigation involved two
undercover officers from the SBI and
two sheriffs department officers,
Truelove said It was not originally
intended to concentrate on cocaine
traffic but that was the drug the
suspects usually offered to the offic
ers, he said. '
The names of the first 12 suspects
charged were published Monday.
Others charged include:
B George Mattis Headly, Orange
County. Mattis was charged with one
count of trafficking cocaine and one
count of conspiracy to traffic cocaine.

U.S., Soviets make progress
on arms control agreement
From Associated Press reports
WASHINGTON The Soviet
Union has provided the United
States with detailed information
about its medium-range missile
arsenal in another step toward
completion of a treaty to be signed
at the December summit, Reagan
administration officials said
Thursday.
All 553 SS-20 and SS missiles
the Soviets have deployed would
be scrapped under the treaty. The
Soviets would also dismantle 130
shorter-range rockets, while the
United States would eliminate 364
missiles that were installed in
Western Europe.
On another sticking point, the
Soviets have agreed to allow U.S.
inspectors to take up positions
outside a plant where SS-25
missiles are assembled. That
means they could observe any
finished weapons as they are
brought out.
Additionally, the officials said,
the Soviets want a reciprocal right
to inspect a plant where U.S. cruise
missiles are assembled. U.S. nego
tiators rejected the demand, but
might make a ballistic missile plant
available.

Foreign students
describe difficulties
of discrimination
By AMY WINSLOW
Staff Writer
Ignorance and lack of awareness
sparks most of the discrimination
experienced by UNC's foreign stu-
dents, a panel of five foreign students
told an audience of about 25 in the
Student Union Thursday night.
The Association of International
Students sponsored the discussion as
jjart of Human Rights Week. ,
fr"I hesitate to desenbe my bad
experiences as human rights viola-
tions, but more as ignorance and a
lack of understanding," said Sailesh
Chutani, a graduate student in
computer science from India.
Foreign students who look differ
ent physically encounter more dis
crimination in daily life, said Brock
Dickinson, a junior history and
English major from Canada.
"Being a Canadian, you can blend
in and pretend you're American,"
Dickinson said.
Foreign students who study at
West German universities find them
selves more isolated and less inte
grated than a foreign student at an
American university, said Jurgen
Buchenau, a graduate student in
Latin American Studies from West
Germany.
"It's very much up to the student
whether to get involved or not," said

Subway fire investigated
LONDON The government
on Thursday announced a public
inquiry into a sudden and quick
spreading fire that raged through
London's largest subway station,
killing 30 people and injuring
about 80 others.
Survivors of Wednesday even
ing's blaze told harrowing stories
of people on fire and of being
carried on an escalator into the
flames.
People collapsed from smoke
and many pounded helplessly on
windows of passing trains in
search of an escape from Britain's
worst subway fire.
Fire officials said they could not
explain how a small fire could
spread so quickly.
Scotland Yard said it was not
taking seriously telephone calls
from Northern Ireland terrorist
groups claiming responsibility for
the fire.
Colombia.
Pichon said UNC students are
more aware than students at the
University of Kansas where he spent
two years.
Socially, foreign undergraduates
experience difficulty because about
90 percent of UNC's foreign students
are doing graduate work, Dickinson
said.
r Foreign .students,. who fit the black
" American ' stereotype receive " more
discrimination than other foreign
students, said Jerry Edwards, a
freshman business administration
major from Antigua.
"Blacks as a whole are still con
sidered on a lower social scale in
America," Edwards said. "It's actu
ally a cultural issue, not a matter of
color."
Dickinson said he, as a minority,
had become much more aware of the
prejudices within the United States,
especially between blacks and whites.
Generally, the panel said they felt
the UNC administration was fair to
foreign students, with the exception
of a few policies.
The panel participants complained
about a policy requiring foreign
students to purchase health
insurance.
"It shouldn't be limited to foreign
students," Buchenau said. "It should
apply to all students not insured by
their parents."
Foreign students are also ignored
in the new telephonic drop-add
system, Dickinson said.
"It wouldn't allow foreign students
to pre-register, if the system is put
into place," he said.
As a student, Buchenau said he
hasn't experienced any discrimina
tion, but as a teaching assistant, he
said students don't always take his
views seriously.
