Police Roundup B Four first-degree burglaries and two attempted burglaries at Willow Terrace Apartments in -Chapel Hill were reported to the Chapel Hill Police Department Tuesday. All the burglaries were reported Tuesday morning and apparently occurred late Monday night or early Tuesday morning. Chapel Hill police planner Jane Cousins said the suspect in all the burglaries got into or tried to get into the residences through win dows. The thief gained entry into those apartments where windows were open, she said. In all the burglaries, the thief just took cash, Cousins said. Police are not releasing the amount of money taken in the burglaries. Police have not determined yet if the burglaries were committed by one person or one group, and the investigation into the incidents is continuing, she said. Damage to the apartments that were robbed was minimal and was estimated at $30 in two of the robberies. a Another residential burglary was reported Tuesday by a Stinson Street resident. Someone entered the house and took several items, including cash. Damage to the house was estimated at $25.

He said he had no idea who could have taken the air conditioner from the trailer. a A UNC student who lives at the Delta Delta Delta house at 407 E. Franklin St. reported an attempted larceny from her car Wednesday.

However, students need to consider ' the responsibilities involved in pet care before they commit themselves as pet owners. Students should realize they can't just pick up a stray pet and keep it, said Elma Rae Johnson, director of animal control for Orange County. Students must report finding stray animals to the Orange County Animal Shelter within three days, or they will be breaking state law. The law's purpose is to help owners locate lost pels. Someone may be worried about his pet and never find it if people don't report lost animals, Johnson said. One major responsibility of a pet owner is rabies vaccination, Johnson said. "Once a dog or cat is over 4 months old, they can receive rabies shots," she said. The Orange County Animal Con trol Center sponsors low-cost rabies vaccination clinics; each vaccination costs $4.50, Johnson said. The cen ter may have one such clinic in October.' The next step is to license the pet according to local ordinances, John son said. In Chapel Hill, the license for an unsterilized dog costs $11.50, a sterilized dog $9, an unsterilized cat $3, and a sterilized cat $2. , A name tag is also a necessity, said Barbara Long, acting manager of the animal shelter. 44 An identifica tion tag is the best way to make sure your pet is returned if lost," she said. The animal shelter offers free tags to the public. Students living in apartments should remember to pay their pet deposit, if one is required, Long said. Otherwise, the pet andor the student may get kicked out. Also, students must have ade quate time to care for pets, espe cially dogs, Long said. "Properly caring for a dog, which includes exercising the dog every day, involves up to two hours a day," she said. "Cats are sometimes better pets for students because they don't require as much exercise and may be easier to keep in an apartment or house." . "A lot of people don't realize the responsibility involved in owning a cat," said Jayne Carter, a senior psy chology major from Elizabeth City. "When you go away on weekends you have to leave your cat, often assuming that a roommate will care for it." Leaving for weekends and vaca tions is also a problem for dog owners. "I couldn't go anywhere because I couldn't take extended trips or vacations without finding someone to take care of my two dogs," said Lin Brumley, a fifth-year senior political science peace, war and defense major from Chapel Hill. As long as students are willing to accept the responsibilities that go along with owning a pet, keeping one can be a pleasure. "A pet pro vides so much love that it outweighs any problems that might develop," . Brumley said. 3 ik f v 1 i. ::::::::-: 'wavj. -X- - y : :-:-:.v.v.v:'.v:v:o . . . y-svv.-:-. ,-.:.v. ..v fv.'.v.'.v.v'.v , v.. . .-.v.-v.v - v.v DTH file photo A pet dog may require two hours of care daily from its owner WERE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE American Heart Association ".Irs Jl n 7 ifUU Urn mmf' Tfi I sirloin V ms&mi i strip . v ,,Vir tejjf x1 lb'V gCHUCK 'sTEAK; .'
