Foirmer ageoH: condemns Q A actions
By BETH RHEA
Staff Writer
The University shouldn't allow the
CIA to recruit on campus because it
participates in illegal activities, and
students should protest CIA recruit
ment to prevent the organization
from returning to UNC, Philip Agee
told about 500 students in Hamilton
Hall Thursday night.
Agee, a former CIA agent and an
outspoken opponent of the agency's
activities, drew a crowd that clogged
the aisles and lined the walls of the
auditorium. The speech was the last
major event of Human Rights Week,
sponsored by the Campus Y.
"I suppose you think there's
nothing you can do," Agee said.
"That's not true. Student protesters
brought an end to the Vietnam War.
Active opposition to CIA recruitment
can also be successful."
The fact that the CIA is an official
government agency does not excuse
its illegal activities, Agee said.
"Do not let a university president
tell you that (CIA recruitment is
acceptable) because the CIA is a
government organization." The
audience responded to this statement

The , agreement establishes a pro
cess for planners and politicians from
both counties to review and comment
on proposed developments outside of
their jurisdictions, said Chapel Hill
Town Council member Julie
Andresen, a member of the group.
The courtesy review agreement was
a compromise solution stemming
Human Rights Week
with applause.
Allowing the CIA to recruit "for
Murder, Inc., is an insult to the
University," he said. .
The University must not allow the
CIA to "try to entice the best of
American youth into that kind of
work," Agee said. "The University
has to discriminate."
Student protest is a crucial factor
in deterring the CIA from recruiting
on campus. "Militant action will stop
them," he said. Then he smiled,
confessing that he hated to quote
Ronald and Nancy Reagan, and said,
"When they come around again, 'Just
say no.' "
Most of Agee's speech was spent
recounting illegal activities he said the
CIA had been involved in since the
agency's inception in 1947.
But in response to a question after
the speech, Agee said he wasn't
opposed to the United States having
an intelligence agency.
"I believe the U.S. needs an
intelligence agency one that keeps

"The CIA has very intelligent

they use this intelligence."

The Department of University
Housing presented a proposal for
guaranteed sophomore housing
beginning in 1988-89 to the Residence
Hall Association Board of Governors
Thursday at its regular meeting.
But RHA has voted against. the
same proposal for the past two years,
said Jimmy Randolph, RHA presi
dent. The governors are concerned
that the proposed system is unfair to
juniors and seniors, and that it will
displace many upperclassmen while
favoring freshmen and sophomores.
The proposed change to the 12-year-old
system is designed to sim
plify the lottery and sign-up process,
reduce the time used to implement
the process and reduce the stress
experienced by residents involved in
the lotteries, said Collin Rustin,
associate director of housing.

McKinley will face charges before the

more than a month after walking out
on his first hearing and refusing to
return.
McKinley faces four charges
related to two CIA protests last year.
He originally appeared before the
court Oct. 20 . but left the hearing
when the court refused to allow him
to discuss CIA activities as part of
his defense.
McKinley said Thursday that he
will attend this hearing because he
has additional statements to make to
the court.
On principle, McKinley said he still
doesn't accept the court's ruling.

He said the American "elite" felt
the CIA was necessarybecause it was
afraid popular revolutions in Third
World countries would inspire Amer
ica's underprivileged to revolt also.
Agee said such revolutions caused
"the ruling elite to quake.
"We have our own Third World
in this country," he said. "Revolutions
in these countries (Nicaragua, Hon
duras, El Salvador) have an appeal
to our poor. . . . These revolutions
are indeed an unusual and inordinate
threat not militarily, but by
example."
Agee said he was raised in the same
segment of the American populace
that he condemns.
"I was in fact a privileged bene
ficiary of the system," he said. "I went
to private schools, and I grew up in
a 'country club' atmosphere."
Agee said he received a degree in
philosophy from Notre Dame, but
that when he decided to go into the
CIA after college, he "didnt under
stand" what the CIA was about.
"I went into the agency as a lamb,
as a true believer, by the way," he
said.
of the 1987 and 1988 waiting lists for
on-campus housing, Rustin said in
the proposal. "We see that the real
demand for residence hall space is
overwhelmingly from the freshman
and sophomore classes."
According to the proposed system,
rising sophomores would be allowed
to return to the residence hall space
they occupied as freshmen by sub
mitting an application contract to
their area director by a specified date.
Their applications would not enter
the lottery, Rustin said.
Because of new spaces in Carmi
chael Residence Hall, built in 1986,
and the high level of competition
from off-campus housing options, the
occupancy rate of residence halls has
not been at 100 percent since 1985.
Guaranteed sophomore housing
would fill the empty spaces, thereby
lowering fees for residents, Rustin
said.
RHA opposes the proposal

McKinley said he will discuss ways

McKinley faces charges of
obstructing the normal operations of
the University as a result of a Feb.
23 incident at the University Motor
Inn. He also has been charged with
obstruction, trespassing and disor
derly conduct as a result of an April
IS demonstration at Hanes Hall.
If McKinley is found guilty of
either obstruction charge, the max

The spirited UNC-Duke rivalry
will continue when the 55th annual
Beat Dook weekend kicks off
today with the Beat Dook Parade,
the event's organizers said
Thursday.
The parade has been held since
1933. The unique name originated
when someone "misspelled" the
name of the rival school, said
Christopher Morris, a member of
Pi Kappa Alpha, the fraternity
which is sponsoring the weekend.
The parade will begin at 3 p.m.
in front of Carmichael Gym. The
parade route follows a path down
Raleigh Street, left onto Franklin
Street, then left again onto Colum
bia Street and into Big Fraternity
Court.
The Beat Dook Queen will be
crowned at the beginning of the
parade. Pi Kappa Alpha invited
all 16 of the recognized campus
sororities to enter nominees for the
