The vote on the two projects was delayed by legal problems the town attorney had overlooked until Mon-, day afternoon.

"It was an oversight on our part," Karpinos said. "Our ordinance re quires that all hearings be held under oath and the hearings on June 26 were not." The council decided to hold a sec ond public hearing on the plans Aug. 29, after discussing the possibility of holding the hearing Monday night The delay will give the council time to encourage the developer of Chapel Hill Gateway, Jamestown Properties of Atlanta, to make changes in their preliminary plan for a pro When yoe start your career, there's nothing like initial success.

The council will hold a session in the next two weeks to suggest modi fications of the projects, which they will send to developers.

How ever, neither developer has applied for a special use permit which is re quired before construction can start. The Chapel Hill North project was also approved by the town's plan ning board and transportation board, but both boards denied Chapel Hill Gateway approval.

The permit allows the sorority to begin building a multi-housing unit for a maximum of 40 people and a parking lot, starting July 10. The council also approved a $.16,000 study to find out if Chapel Hill residents would be willing to pay the remaining S3 million needed to build a new public library. The total cost of construction is $7.8 million and Mayor Jonathan Howes said the library could not be built with the funds available. Howes said the present library is outdated and a larger one is needed. "I believe the community values its libraries and will pay for a proper building," Howes said. The council meeting was the last scheduled until Aug. 28. Martin frompagel dormitory room in April, was origi nally suspended from the team in May. Martin was not indicted by a grand jury on felony charges later that month. Chapel Hill District Attorney Carl Fox said he is still considering resub miting charges against Martin. Martin, a 5-foot-10, 200-pound rising junior from Winston-Salem, N.C., ran for 1,146 yards in 1988 and tied for the ACC lead in touchdowns with 11. Without Martin, UNC is left with only one experienced player, senior Aaron Staples, at tailback. Staples had six carries for 25 yards last year. Torin Dorn, who split time with Martin at tailback last year, was shifted to cornerback in the spring. Cetebratt the ZOOth. Anniversary of the. Trench, "Revolution!
