A permanent loca tion and new building would be nice, Edens said, "But more important is that we have a program site where the program is going to work. "If we are going to serve people on the street, we need to be on the street." , ' Robert Seymour, a Chapel Hill minister who has been active in the ; IFC and has served the homeless for many years, said the proposed new ; location could "cripple the ministry." "A permanent location that fails to serve the people is no good," Seymour said. Council members said they would . not seek to move the shelter unless IFC officials wanted the change. '? "The IFC says the proposed site J has real disadvantages," Howes said. "To further consider the Airport Road site after what we have heard tdnight would be a waste of time." j !

The price topped the previous 20th century painting record, also for a Picasso, set Nov. 14 when his "Mater nity" sold in New York for $24.75 million. After being shown in Paris in 1905, "Acrobat and Young Harlequin" found its way into a German museum and was confiscated by the Nazis in 1937 as an example of decadent art. The Nazis sold the painting at auction in Switzerland to a Belgian collector and it had been in private hands since then. Christie's sale rooms were crowded kicked off Cameron Avenue and Graham Street, and the town coming to the rescue with a binding contract, that they are, having to come back and refight the old, old, old fight." Other council members agreed, and Art Werner said the council had a legal and moral commitment to allow the shelter to remain in its present location. "The council has said maintaining its word and commitment is impor tant; it is even more so in this case," Werner said.

In the reorganization, Dennis O'Connor, acting provost since June as well as vice chancellor for research and dean of the graduate school, was given new titles vice chancellor for academic affairs and provost. Garland Hershey, former vice chancellor for health affairs, is now vice chancellor for health affairs and vice provost. Hardin said he had combined the two positions into the Office of the Provost so the. provost and vice provost could deal with issues affect ing both divisions of the University. Continuing education and research are examples of concerns that are Black Student Movement's Opeyo troupe provides expressive outlet for dancers i By MYRNA MILLER Staff Writer 0! peyo. In the African Swahili I language, this word means freedom. But at UNC, the Opeyos are the only black student dance group on campus. "The Opeyos are a black dance troupe that performs jazz dances for various organizations and events," said Opeyo artistic director Tammi Hampton, a sophomore industrial relations major from Greensboro. The troupe is a subgroup of the Black Student Movement and is organized and planned entirely by its student members. The group consists of nine active female members. Because of its small size the group has not been able to organize for public perfor mances this semester, Hampton said. The group did hold several per formances last year. They danced at the Miss Omega Psi Phi Pageant in Great Hall and performed two dan ces for a black student group at Duke. This year the group has plans to dance at the Miss Omega Psi Phi Pageant again in January. They will also perform at the Black Cultural Center in February, at Chapel Hill Senior High School in honor of Black History month and for Black Women United, a campus organiza tion, sometime next semester. Hampton and Opeyo business director Kim Jlolmes, a senior inter disciplinary studies major from Dur ham, now head the dance troupe, but the members have discussed receiving outside help. "We might get a professional dancer to work with the group," she said. Recently the group has been foe- for an auction of 69 Impressionist and modern works of art by 40 artists. The Japanese buyer of the Picasso pushed his way through the crowd escorted by a security guard after buying the painting. He refused to answer questions and was taken into a private room by Christie's directors while the sale continued. A director then emerged and said: "He's emotionally upset; I must get him a drink," and went to get a soft drink from a refrigerated cabinet. The buyer, smiling, later left by a side door. from page 1 the shelter in its present location, and Preston said task force members were searching for a new "site because they felt something better was available for the shelter. "It bothers me that because we're looking for another site, people think we don't have compassion," Preston said. "That really bothers me." After the meeting, Edens and Seymour said they were very pleased with what they had heard. "(The council members) showed they are solidly behind the IFC and the shelter location," Seymour said. "I feel very good indeed. I think we have turned a corner tonight."

He said he had wanted to create a central University office with "integ rity and clout" to handle matters affecting both divisions. Hardin said he had delegated to O'Connor and Hershey certain responsibilities that don't require the chancellor's daily attention, but both administrators are responsible to him ultimately. Under Hershey and O'Connor, four associate or assistant provosts will handle computing and data Campus Group Focus using on the upcoming tryouts, which will be held at the end of this semester or early next spring, she said. "We encourage that men try out too," Hampton said. "It enriches the dance group to have male performers." The group encourages black stu dents who like jazz music and are dedicated to dancing to join the group, Hampton said. "They should have some dance training, preferably within the last two years," she said. Ballet training is especially helpful. Holmes said students should try out as long as they feel they have the dancing ability, even if they haven't had recent practice. And those who can perform the dance steps will improve their dancing style because of all the practice, she said. "We really need hardworking peo ple that will be dedicated to the group," Holmes said. "They have to have enough time to be committed to the group and not involved in 20 other things that are more impor tant." A student would go through a three day tryout with the Opeyos, Hampton said. "We will teach them one half of each of two dances, and they will be asked to perform them they must be able to do leaps and turns," she said. Dance troupe members" must practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays in Woollen Gym, Hampton said. They must be willing to work within a group and listen to other members ideas, she said. Dancing in the group has been beneficial, according to Hampton. "The Opeyos have given me a chance to express my dancing abili ties in the black community on cam pus," she said.
