But officials with UNC's Finance Office said they were not aware of a 1 percent cut in allotments and added that there had been no effects of a cut on the University. All state government departments and agencies, including UNC, were notified in a memo sent by the State Office of Budget and Management in November that there is concern that there might not be enough money for everything in their budgets, said Marvin Dorm an, deputy budget director, in a telephone interview. But some agencies, including UNC, Speaker denounces By KATHERINE HOUSTON Staff Writer Divestment and sanctions against South Africa by the West are actually hurting, not helping, black Africans in their fight against apartheid, said Wal ter Williams in a speech before about 150 people Tuesday night in Murphey Hall. Williams, a professor of economics at George Mason University and syndi cated columnist, spoke as part of a lecture series sponsored by The Caro lina Critic Society, The Intercollegiate Studies Institute and The John W. Pope Foundation. He has argued in his book, "South Africa's War Against Capitalism," that pulling American investment from South African businesses and applying economic sanctions against exports to the United States is going to result in failed businesses or laid-off workers, many of whom would be non-white. Williams and other conservatives believe the United States should work behind the scenes diplomatically and should persuade South Africa with reason to change its policies. Williams began his lecture by say ing, "South Africa has rightfully re ceived worldwide condemnation for its system of apartheid that deprives non white citizens of economic rights en joyed by the white population. "One of my goals in writing the book was to disabuse people of the notions that capitalism and apartheid go to gether. This is a misconception held by people in South Africa and elsewhere. Hence, the solution is a promotion of socialism in order to bring about a more just society." Blacks in South Africa face a bad situation, but the problem can be im proved if it is addressed in the proper way, Williams said. "Clearly blacks in South Africa can be made better off. However, we have to be compassionate in our policy in making them better off." An issue that also must be consid ered is what will happen after apart heid. "An important question for South Africans to ask is not only getting rid of the last vestige of apartheid, but what is going to replace apartheid? It would be Race neck-and-neck for By CHRISTINE THOMAS Staff Writer Incumbents Hilliard Caldwell and Tom Gurganus retained their seats on the Carrboro Board of Aldermen in their bids for re-election with new comer Jacquelyn Gist claiming the remaining vacant seat. The three winning candidates and Michael Nelson campaigned for the three board positions. In a neck-and-neck race, the results of the last reporting precinct edged Gurganus past newcomer Nelson. North Carrboro and Town Hall turned in their election results last of the five Carrboro precincts, boosting Gurganus, with 636 votes, past Nelson, with 528 votes. Gurganus said most of his support came from the North Carrboro pre cinct. He also said he thought a great deal of his support came from the Town Hall precinct, his home precinct. "I am very excited about getting on the board again," he said. "I would like to thank everyone who supported me, and I would like to say that I will do the best job on the board that I can." Gurganus said he was pleased with were not told directly that their allot ments had been cut by 1 percent to avoid the possible budget crunch, he said. "We did not write a memorandum to each agency," Dorman said, but added each agency was told in the memo to spread the word about the revenue shortfall and the possible budget crunch. In the memo, state agencies were warned that anticipated revenues have not materialized as projected and that money remains tight, Dorman said. The memo also indicates that the hiring freeze ordered last December by Gov. Jim Martin remains in effect to avoid a budget Crisis. The memo told state agencies that revenue estimates were apparently too optimistic and some of the revenues could not be expected to be available until the spring, Dorman said.

Williams concluded by saying that black Africans all over the continent have been used as guinea pigs and have suffered from disastrous experiments by Western intellectuals. "Sanctions and disinvestment are just the latest of those experiments." Student activist Dale McKinley said he found it incredible that Williams neglected to mention anything about political freedom and mass political the campaign that he conducted and with the straightforward way in which he addressed the issues. He said he did not think his campaign was negative in any way. The voter turnout, although small, was greater than Gurganus expected. He said the mayoral race was the factor that probably enticed more people to vote. Looking to the future of the Board of Aldermen, Gurganus said the primary issue would be zoning of the water shed. Environmental issues will also be a big question for the future board. He said traffic circulation in downtown would continue to be a concern of the board. Challenger Jacquelyn Gist said she thought her campaign went well, and she wanted to thank the people who gave her a great deal of support. Gist said she was disappointed in Tuesday's voter turnout. She did not see many students at the polls, and students could try to partici pate more in town government, she said.

"The General Assembly appropri ated $120 million of anticipated RJR Nabisco revenues which will not show up until next spring," Dorman said. The revenues from the Tax Amnesty, tax enforcement and the "revenue neutral" tax fairness programs cannot be pro jected accurately, he said.

Jason James, editor of The Carolina Critic, said he thought the audience was interested in the lecture. "Dr. Wil liams used great anecdotes. The audi ence seemed knowledgeable and chal lenged him with their questions. He refuted himself well." Bob Lukefahr, publisher of The Carolina Critic, said he had received calls from New York and Oklahoma from people interested in the lecture. He said he hoped the lecture caused opponents of Williams to reassess their views. board post Voting is one of the easiest ways for students to participate in local govern ment, Gist said. She added that if the students had paid more attention to the issues, there would have been more student voters. The major issues in the election were the watershed, traffic and housing, Gist said. She said these issues were the ones that will be addressed by the new Board of Aldermen. Gist finished with 714 votes, the highest number among the candidates. At one point during ballot tabulation, Gist was tied with incumbent Caldwell. Gist said she would be happy to work on the board with any of the candidates. In other elections, incumbent Mayor Fred Cates of Hillsborough lost to Horace Johnson, making Johnson the first black mayor of Hillsborough. The unofficial results at the time of press were Cates, 547; Johnson, 576. In the Chapel Hill-Carrboro School Board race, incumbents Mary Bushnell and Ted Parrish kept their seats.

'The state budget office has not said anything about a cut." UNC has not felt the effects of the 1 percent cut, Jones said. UNC receives its financial allotments every quarter based on the University's own estimates of what its expected expenditures and revenues will be, Jones said. These estimates are then submit ted to the state budget office where they are either accepted or denied, he said. The budget office then adjusts the estimates and an allotment is made to UNC, Jones said. "We get our allotments on a quar terly basis," he said, adding that if the University comes up short, they can file for a supplemental allotment. Since the estimates are adjusted by the state budget office, it is impossible to tell if there has indeed been a 1 percent cut in Student Stores i to cease sale of I adult magazine I By ROBERT BROWN Staff Writer Penthouse Magazine will no longer be sold at UNC Student Stores and snack bars, said Rutledge Tufts, director of Student Stores. But other adult magazines, such as Playboy and Playgirl, will be sold despite being accidently removed from the Circus Room earlier this week, Tufts said Tuesday. He said he asked to have Pent house removed from Student Stores and the Circus Room when he dis covered last week that the magazine was being sold in the stores. Mike Freeman, snack units director, said Penthouse had been sold in the Cir cus Room for more than a year. Tufts said it was University pol icy to sell Playboy and Playgirl, but not Penthouse. The policy is based on "purely literary grounds." "We looked at the magazines available to us and drew some lines. We came to the decision that Play boy was what we wanted and Pent house was not," Tufts said. "The bottom line is that we car ried Playboy because it contained literary content and Penthouse did not." Playboy has included works by mainstream authors and some cutting-edge articles, he said. Freeman said he was unaware of the policy against selling Penthouse when he ordered the magazine for the Circus Room. Tufts said that because of a mix up after he ordered Penthouse to be pulled from the shelves, all three magazines were taken from the Cir- Proposal CIA recruitment' By STACEY KAPLAN Staff Writer Jeffrey Beall (Dist. 7) has introduced a resolution to have Student Congress oppose attempts to restrict the constitu tional right of the CIA to conduct cam pus interviews. The resolution, which claims that the CIA has the same right as other government agencies and businesses to interview on campus, will be reviewed by the Student Affairs Committee to night and will go before the full con gress on Nov. 15. "There has been a lot of silliness and inanity on campus lately," Beall said. "It is important that someone counters the things that have been going on. "I'm optimistic that Student Con gress will express support for the Constitution and the University policy to have the CIA conduct interviews. I don't see how anyone who supports the Constitution would be against it. "It would make a "positive and af firmative statement that supports the right of all government and business organizations to interview on campus," Beall said.

"Numerous law firms have been allotment, Jones said. , , "You couldn't compare what we get to a predetermined amount." ,c Dorman said the allotment cuts and the continuation of the hiring freeze were designed to prevent a major budget crisis like the one in the fourth quarter of the last fiscal year.
