Interstate accident kills UNC employee By JAMES BENTON Assistant Editor A UNC administrator killed in a traffic accident May 25 on Interstate 85 near Graham in Alamance County was driving while under the influence of alcohol, according to police reports. Carol Brewer, 34, student ser vices manager of the College of Arts and Sciences, was killed when her car collided with a tractor trailer. Both vehicles involved in the accident were traveling south on 1-85. The driver of the truck, iden tified as Anthony R. Lamb, 51, of Anderson, Ind., was admitted to North Carolina Memorial Hospital last Wednesday night. Hospital officials said Wednesday morning that he was in good condition. Sgt. Doug Nelson of the Gra ham Police Department said Tuesday night that no charges were filed against Lamb. Instead, Nelson said, the investigative report found Brewer at fault for the accident. Nelson said Brewer had committed three violations leading to the accident. "First, (Brewer) was under the influence of alcoholic beverages," Nelson said. "Second, there was an illegal lane change, and third, there was a safe movement violation." Nelson said tests showed Brewer had a blood-alcohol content of .19 nearly twice the state's legal blood-alcohol content limit of .10. Nelson said the accident Australia MwZealand.

Franklin St. 929-2109 occurred at exit 147B, N.C. 87 north to Graham. Brewer drove onto the exit ramp, thinking it was an additional traffic lane or her intended exit, he said. Nelson said she either realized the "lane" was an exit ramp or decided she was leaving the highway at the wrong exit. She then attempted to re enter the highway, where she collided with the tractor-trailer. Nelson said Lamb swerved his vehicle in an attempt to avoid Brewer, but lost control in the process. The tractor-trailer pulled Brew er's car onto the median and rolled over onto the car. The truck continued out of control, traveling 698 feet off the highway and striking two parked cars before coming to a stop, Nelson said. Brewer's body was pinned in the car for nearly an hour. Nelson said several alcoholic beverage containers had been found in Brewer's car, but since the car was destroyed in the wreck, it was impossible to tell whether the containers had been opened. Brewer's checkbook showed she had bought groceries at a Chapel Hill store the night of the wreck, and at least one of the containers was found among the groceries, Nelson said. As student services manager of the College of Arts and Sciences, Brewer advised and cleared stu dents for graduation, handled all student records and managed the University's academic advising office. (MiMiiflTtTb yP P C 8 l. W jrO-". fit Pyewacket Restaurant & Bar University Square Campos delayed By SUSAN HOLDSCLAW Staff Writer Four Central Intelligence Agency Action Committee (CIAAC) members arrested during an April campus protest will not stand trial for trespassing until Aug. 25. UNC students Graham Entwistle, Kasey Jones, Dale McKinley and Joey Templeton were scheduled to go on trial May 26, but the judge granted a continuance motion. "We were ready to go," McKinley said after the motion was granted Thursday. He said he did not expect the motion but had no objections to the delay. Entwistle said the case was delayed because of "bad timing on a personal level for someone involved in the trial." The reasons were unrelated to any of the defendants, he added. Assistant District Attorney Bill Massengale later confirmed the court could not meet past noon Thursday because of personal reasons for someone involved in the trial. The court chose the August date because some of the people involved are from out of town, he said. By Aug. 25, the students will be returning to Chapel Hill for the fall semester. The trespassing charges stem from an April 15 incident at the University Career Planning and Placement Office in Hanes Hall. In the incident, eight CIAAC members were protesting CIA recruitment on campus. The members held hands and sang protest hymns while lying on the building's second floor. During the demonstration, the" protesters read reports listing alleged crimes of the CIA and answered onlookers' questions about the CIA. They also removed some CIA-related files and videotapes from the cabinets Fresh Pasta LASAGNE VERDI LINGUINE VENEZIA CANESTRELLI CON FETTUCINE Grilled Seafood and Vejjetarian Specialties WEST FRANKLIN STREET THE COURTYARD CHAPEL HILL 929-0297 Chapel of the Cross 304 E.

When the protesters ignored office workers' requests to leave, University police officers carried them out of the building. The eight were charged with second-degree trespassing and released on $200 unsecured bond each. Four of the arrested committee members later agreed to do commun ity service as part of a plea-bargain agreement. The remaining four are on trial for the charge. If convicted, McKinley, Entwistle and Templeton would also have a disorderly conduct charge entered on their criminal records stemming from arrests made during an Oct. 28, 1987, protest.

David Stanford, The Tar Heel Thursday, June 2, 19885 found them guilty of the disorderly conduct charge Jan. 14, but passed no sentence. Instead, he issued a prayer for judgment, meaning the charge would not be entered on the students' records unless they were convicted of another violation within a year. If McKinley, Entwistle and Tem pleton are found guilty, they would have both convictions entered, but would serve no sentence for the October charge. They and Jones would face a maximum penalty of 30 days imprisonment and a $200 fine if convicted, Massengale said. Massengale said Thursday he was unsure whether he will ask for the maximum penalty if the students are convicted. 5 OFF We would be happy to arrange and eye exam for you! 968-4775 or 968-4776 5 235-A ElliojtJd.KrogerPIazaj week subscription .State.
