Chapel Hill Public Library officials said Sunday. Although book sales did not equal the original goal of $20,000, Friends of the Chapel Hill Public Library chairwoman Taffy Bodman said she was pleased with the amount of money raised. After all sales were tabulated, library officials said $ 1 6,000 was raised Si jeer is quatre motsj'en trois. If I write four words, I will strike out three. Nicolas Boileau (1636-1711), Satires, ii.

"Maybe $20,000 was asking too much," Bodman said. "We're just happy that the auction was a success and made so much money, despite the loss of the two books." The rare books, valued at $300 and $350, were stolen separately Sunday and Monday. "Journey to the Western Isles of Scotland" by Samuel Johnson, published in 1775, and a collection of 20 steel engravings illustrating Johnson's journey were both found to be missing after the auction was Semester or a Year Abroad at The American University of Paris Lying virtually in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower in the 7th arrondissement, The American University of Paris combines the abundant resources of a four-year college with Paris' riches as cultural and intellectual capital of the new Europe. The art, architecture, cosmopolitan ambiance, and political significance as headquarters for numerous international organizations makes Paris an incomparable primary text for students at the University. Of the 1000 students from over 60 different countries, 50 are U.S. citizens and 15 graduates of French lycees. In the past academic year, visiting students comprised 13 of the student population and came from 89 colleges and universities. Housing assistance is guaranteed. Majors in: Art History, Comparative Literature, Computer Science, European Studies, French Studies, International Affairs, International Business Administration, International Economics, and Fine Arts in conjunction with Parsons School of Design, Paris. Work in the majors can, for students in the Institute for French Studies in Paris program (IFSP) with strong French language proficiency, also be combined with courses at the Institut d'Etudes Sociales, Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales, Universite de Paris IV Sorbonne, and Institut d'Etudes Politiques ('Sciences-Po').

Bodman said she believed the uninsured books would be nearly impossible for the police to recover. The thefts have not been reported to police because to do so would do no good, she said. "I'm afraid it's impossible to expect the return of those books," Bodman said. "But the book dealers in the area have been alerted to look out for the books." Bodman said the books could have been stolen by a book lover, but a third book that completed the Johnson collection was untouched. She said someone interested in keeping the books probably would have taken the entire series. Someone probably saw the expensive price tags on the books and is planning to sell them, she said. Bodman added that new precautions would be taken for next year's sale. "We're talking about changing the times of the sale and also about having a guard standing with the books," she said. Profits from the book sale go directly to the library for the purchasing of new books. Ninety percent of the books sold at the auction are donated from the community, and the remaining 10 percent are discards from the library.

Durham 493-8594 Recent county pet disappearances raise concerns for animal safety By JANICE DAUGHTRY Staff Writer Many residents of Chatham and Orange counties are concerned about the safety of their pets after a recent rash, of pet disappearances in the western part of Orange County. Lieutenant Charles Thomas of the Chatham County Sheriff's Department said the police were not ruling out the possibility that someone was taking the pets, usually dogs, in order to use them in laboratory research. "It is only speculation right now, but there is certainly that possibility," he said. Residents of Chatham County have reported seeing cars in the area after discovering missing pets. One resident, whose Huskie mix was taken, said he found animal traps in the woods close to his house. Animals have been reported miss ing in Orange County as well. Captain Ralph Pendergraph of the Chapel Hill Police Department said more cats than dogs had been reported missing in Chapel Hill.

But we can't prove it. We returned the dog to the owner with a citation." Pat Sanford, executive director of the Animal Protection Society of Orange County, said animal dealers probably would not come to Orange County be cause of a recent ordinance. "In 1988, the Orange County Com missioners approved the Animal Con trol Ordinance which requires animal dealers licensed by the United States Department of Agriculture to be per mitted to legally collect animals within the county," she said. Elma Rae Johnson, director of Or ange County Animal Control, said, "No animal dealer has ever registered to collect dogs or cats in Orange County." Sanford said dealers were probably not working in Orange County because the disappearances had taken place in rural areas. She said it was not likely that they would try to take an animal in a well-populated area.

She said that many times it turned out that the animal was lost or had been killed. Johnson said one of the problems was that people did not know who to contact when their pets were missing. "People need to contact the sherif f s department because it is a larceny case," he said. Johnson encouraged pet owners to be on the lookout for thieves. If people see any suspicious activity, they should try to get as much information as pos sible, such as license plate numbers, times and places. The types of dogs missing in Orange County are mostly Labradors, Labra dor mixes, hounds and cocker span iels. Johnson said pet owners should have their pets tattooed, licensed and registered. The best protection is putting identification tags on pets, Sanford said. Tatooing is also effective be cause tatooed animals cannot be used in research laboratories without certi fication from the owner, s he said. bum from Hezekiah and the House Rockers in its entirely with no interruptions.
