Martin By STACI COX Staff Writer N.C. Gov. Jim Martin, a Repub lican, and Democratic Lt. Gov. Bob Jordan squared off at the Carolina Inn Friday in their first gubernatorial debate, sponsored by the N.C. Press Association (NCPA). In an opening statement, Martin called for gubernatorial veto power, and highlighted his plans to improve roads, schools and prisons if he is elected to a second term. Both candidates promised a "clean" electoral race. Jordan attacked Martin's record during his first term, calling him a "sitting governor" who cannot work effectively with the N.C. General Assembly, the state's heavily Demo cratic legislature. But Martin stressed his accom plishments with the General Assem bly, citing improvements in the prison and education systems that resulted from bipartisan support. Martin also took a few jabs at the General Assembly, accusing legisla tors of using "intimidation and secret sessions" for political reasons. "I think people have to recognize that there are times you have to work together," Martin said, "but there are also times when it's important to reveal, to disclose, to point out some of the flaws of the way in which the General Assembly does business." Several of Jordan's proposals did not get a warm reception from General Assembly members, said Tim Funk, political reporter for The Charlotte Observer and one of three journalists who formed a panel for the debate. But Jordan said he had a better working relationship with the legis lature than Martin and would accomplish more as Governor. "In 1957 I went to a business (Jordan Lumber Company) that had 13 employees, part Democrats, part Republicans," Jordan said. "Now that business creates over 250 jobs a lot of Republicans, a lot of Democrats. I've done it by working with people." If elected, Jordan said he would recruit more jobs for North Caro linians by replacing the N.C. Chamber of Commerce with the N.C. Economic Development Corpora tion, a group of business profession als from across the state. "We need to do things a different way ."Jordan said. "We need to look at financial structure, just exactly how we can help small businesses grow, medium-sized businesses grow, like Jordan Lumber Company." Calling Jordan's proposal "ridicu lous," Martin said the N.C. Chamber of Commerce should not be dis banded because its business policies were favorable to the state. Martin accused Democrats of sabotaging his proposed 1984 tax cuts, saying that former Gov. Jim Hunt left a budget with no room for the tax cuts Martin promised in his 1984 campaign. North Carolina's economy could absorb tax cuts since its revenues are continually growing, Martin said. Tax cuts would reduce revenue growth by about 25 percent, but they would not affect current revenues. Martin also criticized the Demo cratic General Assembly for dealing unfairly with the issue of toxic-waste sites in North Carolina. The General Assembly passed waste-dilution requirements that killed North Caro lina's chance of getting waste treatment facilities, Martin said. "We have to place these facilities somewhere," Martin said. "Modern society requires that we generate the waste, and we ought to be prepared to take our turn and do our job in respect to properly handling, treating and recycling . . . toxic waste." Heels keep Wolves at bay, 77-73 By CHRIS SPENCER Assistant Sports Editor RALEIGH They closed the North Carolina Zoological Park Sunday. Someone must have, because all of the animals were in Reynolds Col iseum, cheering for the N.C. State Wolfpack and jeering the North Carolina Tar Heels in front of a national television audience. But try as they might, the 20th ranked Wolfpack faithful couldn't rattle the second-ranked Tar Heels, who escaped the cramped, barn-like structure with a physical 77-73 victory. The win, coming after a tough 70 69 loss last Thursday to ninth-ranked Duke, gave the Tar Heels a 14-2 record overall, 3-1 in the ACC. State fell to 10, 2-2. As in Thursday's loss, North Carolina found themselves in a situation where sophomore center J.R. Reid was heavily guarded and junior guard Jeff Lebo largely inef fective offensively, this time due to a bad knee. But unlike Thursday, other Tar Heels picked up the slack, with sophomore Scott Williams scoring 10 points and redshirt freshman Pete Chilcutt and junior Steve Bucknall adding eight. Add to that a stellar performance from redshirt sophomore Kevin Madden, who finished with 16 points on 7-of-8 shooting and hauled in six rebounds. With the crowd of 12,400 at a fever pitch from the opening tip, the two teams traded baskets early on, with Madden hitting for six straight points in one stretch to give the Tar Heels a 16-15 lead. After Reid, who still finished with 17 points, hit two straight shots in the lane, the second a three-point play, Chilcutt worked off two Lebo feeds for a basket and two free throws and one from King Rice for another TOP f - c I J ; h - If acnultty proposes a 1L XL lEMMrtee .-7 V I I f TV J no - - - -- -""mum MMMfcYMiiMMw r By JACKIE DOUGLAS chairman and three former commit- "I shall not oppose the resolution," Staff writer tee chairmen. he said.

Zellmer in the running for president of RHA By BARBARA LINN Staff Writer Paula Zellmer, a junior business major from Winston-Salem, has announced her candidacy for Resi dence Hall Association president. Zellmer said she wants to increase the cohesiveness and interaction within the residence hall governments by defining government positions more clearly and having the different area governments meet and plan together. "Hall reps, dorm reps and social reps don't even know they're part of RHA," she said. "It's hard to be the best at your job if you don't know what your job is." ' Zellmer said everybody involved in dorm government should meet with each other at the beginning of the year so members know about the organi zation and realize what they can da "With the way RHA works now, .when something happens that affects 6,500 students on campus, 15 people Campus Elections are left to address the issues," she said. Zellmer said she wants to overcome student apathy and get more students involved in RHA by making involve ment more enjoyable. RHA should work on internal issues, such as programming in the residence halls, South Campus out reach, security and summer storage, she said. Zellmer said RHA should also work more closely with Student Government's South Campus out reach committee. She also said she wants to organize a summer committee to investigate police files and find out where break ins and rapes happen most frequently. "The results would be compiled and given to students so they know what they can do to prevent these things from happening to them." she -fits I Martin begins campaign for student body president Paula Zellmer said. Zellmer served as co-president of Aycock Residence Hall and is an executive assistant to the RHA president. She has served as chair woman of several investigative com mittees, including the guaranteed studentsophomore housing committee. By JUSTIN McGUIRE Senior Writer Kevin Martin, a junior economics and political science major from Charlotte, has announced his candi dacy for student body president. Increasing communication between the administration and the students is the primary role of the student body president, Martin said. "I think the president bridges the gap between students and admini stration," Martin said. Martin said he wants to establish a cooperative education program that would allow a student to go to school part-time, while working part-time in a field relevant to his major. Students in the program could also attend school for a semester and then work for a semester, Martin said. "This program would open doors to students with financial difficulty (by letting them earn money)," Martin said. "And it would bring back practical experience to the Campus Elections classroom." The University should set min imum standards of English fluency for foreign teaching assistants in the subjects they teach, Martin said, because students have trouble under standing them. Martin said he wants to establish an administrative position in charge of minority affairs. This position would deal with problems such as recruitment and retainment of minor ity students, he said. Martin also said he is interested in forming a student advisory commit tee. The committee would consist of student leaders elected in the campus wide election, as well as other students elected by the committee. "It (the committee) would advise the administration by vocalizing student concerns," Martin said. "And Kevin Martin it would develop a working relation ship between not only the students and the administration but between the student leaders themselves." Martin is a presidential aide to Student Body President Brian Bailey. He is also vice chairman of the Honor Court and has served as a member of the court.
