Durham County Commissioners
Tuesday night adopted a resolution
authorizing the purchase of land for a
new baseball stadium to house the
Durham Bulls.
The county proposed two sites for
the new complex, one at the University
Ford car dealership and another near
Durham Technical College on Briggs
Avenue, said Paul Warren, Durham
County finance director.

Durham bus buy-out
By JEFF MOYER
Staff Writer
A proposed buy-out of the Durham
public transit system by the city of Dur
ham from Duke Power could have a
significant effect on federal funding for
the Chapel Hill Transit system.
Because Duke Power is a privately
owned system ineligible for federal
funds, the money not used by Durham
is allocated to other cities such as Chapel
Hill, said Bob Godding, Chapel Hill
transportation director.
"Chapel Hill competes for limited
federal funds with other cities in North
Carolina." If the Durham system comes
under a public owner, Chapel Hill will
have to share its federal funds, he said.
"The amount of money given to
Durham involves a formula that takes
population into account."
Durham's population would entitle
the city to a large share of the federal
funds the Department of Transporta
tion allocates to the state, he said.
Durham transit supervisor Kennett
Nunn said Greensboro might also con
tend for federal funds to support a bus
system. "The city of Greensboro is also
looking to buy out the city transporta
tion system, which is also owned by
Duke Power."

Ron Freeman, parade coordinator,
said the parade had become a tradition
both for the University and for the

The misspelling of Duke as "Dook"

promote spirit for the game, and the
"mistake" just caught on, Freeman said.

University's Department of Develop

It seeks to raise money that will
affect students immediately, Temple
said. "Usually, all the money is spent
within the year."
The money raised goes either to the
Chancellor's Fund to pay for Univer
sity projects or to the Dean's Fund to
pay for projects within the schools. "It

near Research Triangle Park, he said.
The cost for the new stadium is esti
mated at about $10.8 million plus the
cost of securing the land, Warren said.
The land at the University Ford loca
tion would cost the city about $5 mil
lion and the Briggs Avenue site about
$6.1 million, he said.
"The University Ford location is
going to be difficult to buy because of
all the conditions the owner has pro
posed." Durham County citizens will have a
chance in March to approve the resolu
tion before any money is spent.
portation engineer who is organizing
the city's proposed system, said
Greensboro's size could add to a sig
nificant depletion of available funds
for Chapel Hill if its and Durham's
contracts are signed, he said.
Godding said he was unsure of how
the buy-outs could affect Chapel Hill
because of the unpredictability of fed
eral fund granting.
The federal government will con
tribute up to 50 percent of the operating
costs of the transit system, and the local
funding must make up what the federal
government is unable to pay, Godding
said. If the federal government can't
contribute as much, as would be the
case if Durham and Greensboro were to
purchase transit systems from Duke
Power, decisions would need to be made
locally to increase funding.
There would be three alternatives
for Chapel Hill Transit to take, God
ding said. "We could raise fares, look to
cut expenses or seek additional funding
from local sponsors such as the Univer
sity." Godding would not speculate on
whether fares will increase as a result of
the developments in Greensboro or
Durham. He did point out that the cost
of bus passes had increased this past
year, and the standard bus fare had
to precede Dyke game
floats and cars along with the UNC
mascot, Mikeman Carl Bryan and some
junior varsity cheerleaders, Miller said.
"Santa Claus, and possibly Elvis
Presley, will be making special appear

The grand marshal of the parade will
be Charlie "Choo-Choo" Justice who
played football for Carolina in the

said.
Undergraduate students supply the
labor for Phonathon. They earn $4 per
hour and work Sundays through Thurs
days from 6 pm to 10 p.m. Most stu
dents work about 10-15 hours a week.
The students' job is to phone people
and ask them to donate money to UNC,
Temple said. "About 90 percent of the
people we call are alumni."

"If passed, construction will start in
six months," Warren said. "We would
hope then to have the team in the sta
dium a year later."
Warren said county commissioners
had voted in favor of the new stadium
rather than renovating the Durham
Athletic Park, the Bulls' present home,
because construction would stop Bulls
baseball for at least a year.
"We can still have Bulls baseball in
the old park while construction of the
new one is taking place."
If the county fails to raise the money
to secure either the University Ford or

dollars last year alone."

expansion effort
By SAMANTHA GOWEN

Chapel Hill's Public Works Depart
ment has expanded its curbside recy
cling programs throughout Orange
County, and in the future it would like
to implement programs on campus.
The Public Works Department wants
to include the University in its efforts to
recycle city waste, said Blair Pollock,
solid waste planner.
"Years ago, we did have a drop-off
site on campus. We recycled newspa
pers." The Student Environmental Action
Committee (SEAC) and the Tarheel
Aluminum Recycling Program (TARP)
are trying to implement recycling pro
grams on campus, but they have en
countered problems with fire marshals
and health officials, Pollock said. Pub
lic Works has offered to set up a drop
off site on campus and provide a ve
hicle for pick-up, but University offi
cials have yet to make a decision.
Pollock has high hopes for the future
of recycling. "The University has hired
a recycling coordinator, Philip Prete.
This, along with increased environ
mental interest from the SEAC and
TARP, looks good for their future."
Recycling coordinator Wendy

complex.
The facility would then be funded
and governed by a regional sports au
thority, instead of just Durham county
and city officials, Warren said.
"Because the complex is located
inside the Durham County line, we
would still be called the Durham Bulls."
Steve Bryant, a Raleigh business
man and owner of the class AA Caro
lina Mudcats, approves of keeping the
Bulls in the Durham city limits but does
not favor moving them to the Research
Triangle.
"They (Bulls) can't move to the

During the first three weeks of the

So far, the new expansion program
