Students also said the Univer sity is not moving fast enough to fill the position, which has been vacant since Associate Dean Hayden Renwick resigned in January to become an assistant to the chancellor at Fayetteville State University. "The lack of a head there is really' crucial," resident assistant and former minority adviser Dawn Gibson said. "The work there has really piled on and the office has broken down." The office provides academic and other counseling services for minority students.

"We feel responsible that it be-a good event without incident," Mebane said. "We want it to be a non-alcoholic event. This would be just one way to ensure that it is a safe event for the older and younger people of Chapel Hill." The annual Mr. UNC contest will be Wednesday, Oct. 19, at 7:30 p.m. in Gerrard Hall. The event is spon sored by the Circle K. "Mr. UNC is not a beauty contest position by Jan. 1 .

Greene and Assistant Dean Donella Croslan currently head the office. But Greene's teaching schedule cuts down on the time he can spend in the office. "He's out most of the time," Cindy Miller, a minority adviser, said. "When I go in, it's like Dean Croslan has to do everything." Teresa McKoy, a former minor ity adviser, said the lack of man power makes the office less effec tive. "Students have been turned away without seeing either Dean Greene or Dean Croslan," she said. "There is a limited number of students they can see."

Capt. Gregg Jarvies of the Chapel Hill Police Department. Analysts divided after presidential debate By MICHAEL SPIRTAS Staff Writer Following the final presidential debate Thursday, many experts say time is running out for Democrat Michael Dukakis' campaign. "For all practical purposes the election is over," said Shanto Iyengar, professor of political science and communications at the University of California at Los Angeles. Barring a major event, Vice President George Bush should win the general election Nov. 8, he said in a telephone interview Friday.

"Most people believe that frater nities are the main violators, but of course that is not true," he said. In the period between February 1987 and January 1988, fraternities accounted for only 6 percent of the total noise violations reported to the police, in comparison to complaints from apartment complexes, which totaled 55 percent. Town council member Joe Herzen berg said because the noise from a fraternity party affected more than one person, it was the noise that Prior to the debate, many cam paign experts said Dukakis needed a "knockout" in Thursday night's clash. But such expectations were "unreasonable because of the pre planned nature of the debates, Iyen gar said. "Dukakis didn't help himself, and Bush didn't hurt himself," said Thad Beyle, UNC professor of political science. Beyle said Dukakis' tight mannerisms left him looking less open than his Republican counterpart.

Spangler proposed a 20 percent increase in faculty salaries and a 16 percent increase in out-of-state tui tion Friday as part of a proposed two year, $3.2 billion budget for the 16 campus system. Spangler presented the budget proposal Friday to the UNC Board of Governors' Budget and Finance Committee, which approved the budget. The proposed budget will be . presented to the full BOG this Friday. Committee member Maceo Sloan said Sunday the budget is expected to pass. ( If approved, the budget will be forwarded toGov. Jim Martin, who presents his state budget to the General Assembly. Money allocated for the university system is given to the Board of Governors, which distributes it to the individual campuses. The chancellor of each campus has complete author ity over the money. The proposal to increase out-of-state tuition is not related to the proposed increase in faculty salaries, , Spangler said. Chancellor Paul Har din has mentioned the possibility of raising UNC-CH tuition in order to finance higher faculty salaries. - The increase in faculty salaries is necessary to attract and " keep high quality faculty members so that the Homecoming Activities Tuesday, Oct. 18 Wednesday, Oct. 19 Thursday, Oct. 20 Friday, Oct. 21 Saturday, Oct. 22 people complained about most. "In a college town, noise is a difficult matter to regulate," Herzen berg said. "The current noise ordi nance is very much a compromise between the University students who frankly enjoy making noise at some time or another, and the residents in town who live here." Since September, police represen tatives have met on an informal basis with several fraternities to discuss the noise regulations and ways to prevent violations. "These discussions reinforce ( our goals in terms of alcohol, noise, littering and other problems," Jarvies relaxed with himself," said Rogers Smith, political science professor at Yale University. "Dukakis needed to do much better than Bush. He didn't do that." All the experts interviewed Friday agreed that both candidates improved their performances since the first debate on Sept. 25 at Wake Forest University. But the consensus was that Bush's improvement was greater than Duka kis' and! that the vice president did what was necessary to keep his lead in the polls.

"We have not Vent nn with the salaries of other universities," he said. Harry Gooder, chairman of the UNC-CH faculty, said the faculty would be grateful for the proposed increase. - "It will raise our competitiveness compared to other universities in our ranking," he said. "But whether it will bring us back to where we were four or five years ago, I don't know." The effect of the proposed increase will depend on whether other top ranking research universities raise their salaries at similar rates, Gooder said. "We have to assume they won't," he said. The proposed 20 percent increase 12 percent the first year and 8 percent the second year is as much as can be expected for one budget period, Gooder said. But it may be necessary to include more increases in future budgets, he said. "We're moving in the rieht direc- tion," he said; "We just have to hope the legislature will listen to the Board of Governors. That s the Important o Spangler said N.C. law requires!
