N ew Yo r By BRENDA CAMPBELL Staff Writer , American citizenship will be the topic of the 1988-89 Weil Lecture to be delivered by Anthony Lewis, a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist with The New York Times on April 17 in Hamilton Hall at 8 p.m. Lewis will focus on "The Press and American Citizenship" during the free public lecture sponsored by the Weil family of Goldsboro and co ordinated by the Chancellor's Univer sity Committee on Established Lectures. "The Weil family of Goldsboro originally donated the funds to have the lecture," said Norris Brock Johnson, chairman of the chancel lor's committee. "They wanted to invite people to speak on the privilege and responsibility of citizenship." Lewis will address the rights, duties and obligations of the press and Bill Arnold said UNC schools were accredited only because of their academic standing. Pollitt said legislative interference endangered UNC's accreditation before when the state legislature passed the 1963 speaker ban law. This law prohibited known or suspected Communists from speaking at state supported schools. Senior Week participate in "Rejection Night" at Bub O'M alley's. Seniors who show a rejection letter at the door can get a free "Bub" cup and $1.25 refills. On Friday, from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m., the Senior Ball will be held at the Chapel Hill Holiday Inn. Tickets will be sold in the Pit throughout the week. Senior Week will conclude with the R.E.M. concert at the Smith Center at 8 p.m. Saturday. Seniors have a Springiest from page 1 semester." H RC officials were forced to cancel one area semi-formal last Friday, and a similar semi-formal in the fall may also be canceled if HRC funds are not returned to the normal level, Rhea said. "I don't want to say we're not going to (have the dance), but it just depends if we have the money." Seufert said HRC may have to cancel one or two of the events it sponsors during orientation week because of the funding problems. HRC fund raising in the fall will make certain primary funding for next year's Springfest comes from sources other than shirt sales, he said. 1 L. j S5j- win' 3.5" & 5,25" Datacases rtr. kvkw4i ii if 11 11 if w vmmm mum mmxmm WW I .

The press is one of the key features in the articles of the Constitution. Lewis was chosen to speak on this topic because of his New York Times column, Johnson said. "The committee felt he could deliver a lecture congruent to the mission of the lecture as a whole. We felt he has an interest in the topic because he has written about it in his column. "The topic is one that is often spoken about. Students might want to think about freedom of speech in response to American culture." Richard Cole, dean of the School of Journalism, will introduce Lewis. "Anthony Lewis is one of the most respected journalists in the U.S. because of his wisdom and insight into serious issues," Cole said. In addition to his column, Lewis the whole makeup of the General Assembly." Lamerson said he did not think the bill would pass. "This is about "the third such bill in as many years. Every year they come up with one." The N.C. attorney general's office declared the last two similar bills unconstitutional, Lamerson said. The from page 1 president of the 1989 Senior Class.

Johnson said the chancellor's committee chose who would speak on a certain topic. "The way the speaker is chosen is the committee issues an open invi tation to the University community to submit names of people for one of the three lectures sponsored by the chancellor's office." The committee researches each of the names submitted, then evaluates each submission and compares it to the criteria set for each lecture. Once the committee narrows its choices down to one person, it submits its recommendation to the chancellor, he said. The chancellor then sends a letter to the person asking him to give a lecture on a specific topic. . from page 1 education committee to which the bill has been referred opposes such legislation, he said. Andrew Vanore, N.C. chief deputy attorney general, said he didnt think the attorney general's office had ever issued opinions on such bills. But the legislation "raises some very interest ing questions," he said. Arnold said he introduced the bill on his own initiative after becoming aware of gay and lesbian groups as a student at UNC-Greensboro. "IVe been aware since 1981 of such groups on campus. I was shocked to learn there was a Gay Student Union operating on campus as an official student group." f? Q n g Now Hiring Drivers A & Phone Personnel n 9 60-3270 D Gumby Dammit!

The survey, given to 300 state residents with developmental dif ficulties, was conducted by the Clinical Center for the Study of Development and Learning at UNC and the N.C. Council on Development Disabilities. Of the respondents with devel opmental disabilities who are employed, more than two-thirds work in jobs that involve packag ing, sorting and assembly work. About 70 percent of people with disabilities who work more than 20 hours a week make less than $50 per week, according to the survey. More than half of the respond ents and their families have had little or no experience with most of the 94 services ranging from residential services to transporta tion listed in the survey that might be available to them, according to the results. People with these disabilities report a large discrepancy between desired independence, productiv ity and integration into the com munity and actual achievement of these goals.
