Honorary orders takiog oomDoattfloinis
By JAMES COBLIN
Staff Writer
UNC's three honorary orders, the
ggOrder of the Old Well, the Order of
Kthe Grail-Valkyries and the Order of
the Golden Fleece, are now accepting
nominations for new members,
g The Order of the Old Well was
Kfounded in 1949 as a campus honor-
tary order to recognize the unselfish
service of students to the University,
Ksaid Laurie Norman, adviser to the
XOrder of the Old Well.
X The Order of the Old Well has
Xabout 30 members, Norman said.
S Current members select new
Nmembers based on nominations and
recommendations, Norman said.
The Order of the Old . Well is not
:a service organization, so it has no
specific projects, but it does fund the
Edward Mackie Award, which is
J given to the junior who best shows
t character, leadership and scholarship,
Norman said.
: "The honor of the Order of the Old
it-Well is that it recognizes unselfish
t service that would otherwise go
I-unrecognized," Norman said. "The
Order of the Old Well offers an honor
that is alternative to being president
of a club or maintaining a high GPA.M
Andy Griffith, Charles Kuralt,
James Exum and William Friday are
among the well-known people who
have been members of the Order of
the Old Well, Norman said.
The Order of the Grail-Valkyries
is the second of the three orders
accepting nominations.
The Order of the Grail-Valkyries
honors students who have a balance
of leadership, school service, charac
ter and good academics, said Mary
Bowman, adviser to the order.
The order is primarily an honor
arium and is involved in the selection
of the senior class ring and the
funding of the Grail-Valkyrie scho
larship, Bowman said.
"The significance of the Order of
the Grail-Valkyries is the diversity of
the ways in which students find a '
balance between academics and
service," Bowman said. "I would
never designate a certain type of
individual. Excellence in leadership,
service and academics of maintaining
a 3.0 GPA are the only requirements."
The Order of the Golden Fleece
is the third order offering nomination
submission.
The Order of the Golden Fleece
is the oldest honor society in the
University, said George Lensing,
faculty adviser to the Order of the
Golden Fleece. . -
The order was founded in 1904' and
is in its 85th year, said Rick Maech
ling, who is Jason the equivalent
of president of the Golden Fleece.
The order recognizes a small group
of outstanding students who have led
the University in some lasting way,
Lensing said.
The nominee does not take part
in the selection process. The nomin
ator is asked to comment upon the
nominee and references are
researched, Lensing said.
Alumni members of the Order of
the Golden Fleece include Terry
Sanford and CharlesKuralt, Lensing

New members are selected based
on their lasting contributions, not
their visibility and recognizability,
Lensing said.
This year The Order of the Golden
Fleece completed the establishment
of the Allen K. Lowenstien Scholar
ship for minority students, Lensing
said
"The importance is to recognize the
difference between the three orders,"
Maechling said. "It is not important
that we are the highest of the orders
(because) each order recognizes a
different thing. We recognize extraor
dinary contributions by innovators,
the Order of the Grail-Valkyries adds
academics to their list of criteria and
the Order of the Old Well recognizes
mainly service which would never be
recognized," he said.
Completed nomination forms can
be picked up at the Union and are
due by Feb. 15, Norman said.

fires of a car parked at Spencer
Residence Hall Sunday. Wires and
hoses had been pulled loose from
the engine. .
B Police were called to Carmi

Sunday where a man had told a
resident he was following the
telephone wire and it led to her
room.
n At 12:03 a.m. Saturday,
police checked the occupants of a
vehicle that was illegally parked
on the sidewalk near the Student
Union. An officer saw a marijuana
cigarette in the vehicle. The offic
ers found more marijuana in the
fuse box. The driver, Michael
Dwayne Bridges, 18, of Durham,
was arrested on charges of pos
session with intent to sell and
possession of drug paraphernalia.
He was placed in jail. The pas
senger, Willis Christopher Sutton,
18, of Durham, was issued a

The money was taken from an
unsecured desk drawer.
B A woman reported Friday
morning that as she was walking
to her car at 5 p.m. on Feb. 1,
a man tried to snatch her wallet.
She ran toward her car, but the
suspect shoved her, causing her to
strike her head on the upper edge
of the car door opening. He tried
again to grab the wallet, but she
kicked him between the legs and
he left. She drove to a friend's
home in Greensboro and received
first aid for her head injury at a
Greensboro hospital.

Measles outbreak proves costly to state
By GLENN O'NEAL
Staff Writer
The measles outbreak that has
resulted in about 300 reported cases
statewide is costing the state millions
of dollars in labor and supplies.
The labor cost is hard to estimate
because of the many overtime hours
put in to fight the epidemic, said Bill
Nichols, assistant coordinator of the
Immunization Program of the N.C.
Division of Health Services.
The state has spent about $1.5
million for the vaccine alone, he said.
The cost for the Orange County
Health Department has been a loss
of manpower helping with the vac
cinations, said Daniel Reimer, direc
tor of the department. Several clinics
had to be closed, and most of the
staff was assigned to the problem, he
said.
Costs to Student Health Service
have included employee overtime, the
professional help hired to administer
the shots, and the syringes, said Dr.
Judith Cowan, SHS director.
More than 150,000 vaccines of
three types measles, measles
rubella and measles-mumps-rubella
have been distributed since the
outbreak began, Nichols said.
The supply of the measles vaccine
has been greatly reduced.
"There are no more single-dose
vaccines in the country. We are now
using-a vaccine for protection against
measles and rubella. If that runs out,
we can use a vaccine that protects
against measles, mumps and rubella,"
Reimer said.
"We are not anticipating any
problems to supplies to the UNC
program," he said.
The state receives the vaccine from
Merck Sharp and Dohme, the only
supplier of the vaccine, Nichols said.
The N.C. Division of Health Services
is expecting some more vaccines
Wednesday, he said.
On campus, 1,200 employees of
North Carolina Memorial Hospital
have been vaccinated, said Bobby
Cox, head nurse of Employee Health
Services.
About 3,200 students and faculty
members were given shots Monday,
but an additional 7,000 students are
left who need to be inoculated,
Cowan said.
UNC Flying Club getting off the ground
By DIANA FLORENCE
Staff Writer
TS, "Torth Carolina has been syn-
onymous with flying since
JL N the Wright Brothers' fateful
flight in 1903, and UNC students are
now following the trend by forming
a student flying club.
Senior Al Jones, a licensed flying
instructor, says' something must be
done about the absence of flying
instruction at UNC. So he is pro
posing the creation of the UNC Fly
ing Club.
Operated mainly by students, the
club will enable members to obtain
their private pilot's licenses. It also
would allow a student with a pilot's
license to practice and increase his
Federal Aviation Administration
(FA A) rating.
tudentsjnterested in flying have
few other opportunities for formal
instruction at UNC, Jones says. In
fact, he says, UNC has owned
Horace Williams Airport since the
Campus Group Focus
late 1940s, but students are not very
involved with it.
Sophomore B.C. Cone, a licensed
pilot, says he believes the flying club
will draw many interested people
who cannot afford formal flying
instruction.
"The flying club's existence as a
non-profit organization wilr enable
students to learn to fly without wast
ing a lot of money," Jones says. "It
also has the added advantage of
being easily accessible to students
with the airport being right on the P
bus route."
The club will prove to be a cost
effective alternative because it is not
a business, Jones says. While most
schools estimate $2,500 to $2,800 as
the minimum cost of obtaining a
pilot's license, these costs could be
cut in half by the elimination of

expendable overhead such as rent,
he says.
Club members will not hire book
keepers and receptionists; the
members will take on these tasks
instead, also helping with the basic
maintenance of the planes, Jones
says.
Students who want to pursue
flying-related careers, such as a com
mercial airline pilot, will find an
Plant
enormous advantage in starting their
flying instruction in college, he says.
"The amount of flying hours
required to become a commercial
pilot is so high that the sooner the
student learns, the better."
Even though it is in the early
stages, the UNC Flying Club has
already attracted 22 members.

In a question-and-answer session,
Heist said he did not know when
layoffs would begin, but some long
time employees may be given early
retirement packages.
, "We have always used early retire
ment, plans as a help," he, said. ,
' The few available positions at the
Champion plant in Roanoke Rapids
will be offered, Heist said, but few
are available there.
Martin said he was meeting Tues
day afternoon with community lead
ers in Canton to discuss ways the state
can step in and help the displaced
workers.
The N.C. Department of Com
merce, the Employment Security
Commission and the Community
College System will be called upon
to help Haywood County recover
from the pending shortage of jobs
caused by the Champion cutback,

"We have 16 major prospects. We
hope to get a reasonable share of
them," he said.
Although Champion avoided a
total shutdown of the Canton plant,
Martin expressed disappointment at
the news of any cutback. "It will be
a loss to the state," he said.
