Iraq to free hostages
for Christmas
NICOSIA, Cyprus Iraq will begin
allowing foreign hostages to leave the
country beginning on Christmas "unless
something would take place that mars
the atmosphere of peace," Iraqi officials
said Sunday.
Baghdad's latest peace move came
as the United States worked to secure
international approval for a U.N. reso
lution authorizing the use of force to
dislodge Iraqi troops from Kuwait,
which Iraq invaded Aug. 2. The White
House dismissed the move.
Iraq said the estimated 600 West
erners and others held at strategic sites
since the early stages of the Persian
Gulf crisis could all be freed by March,
an official announcement on Baghdad
television said.
The Iraq News Agency said the de
cision was made in a meeting presided
over by President Saddam Hussein.
A statement said the decision was
made so that "nothing will remain that
will trouble Christmas celebrations."
It said the decision was made in re
sponse to "requests made by good
willing people."
CNN not permitted
to play Noriega tapes
WASHINGTON The Supreme
Court refused by a 7-2 vote Sunday to
give Cable News Network permission
to broadcast tape recordings of con
versations between Panama's Gen.
Manuel Noriega and his lawyers.
The court rejected an emergency re
quest by CNN that was aimed at lifting
a federal judge's order forbidding the
broadcasts until he could determine what
the tapes disclose.
The request had called the Nov. 8
order by U.S. District Judge William
Hoeveler in Miami an unconstitutional
"prior restraint" of free speech. But
only two justices Thurgood Marshall
and Sandra Day O'Connor agreed
with that assessment.
Voting against CNN were Chief Jus
tice William Rehnquist and Justices
Byron White, Harry Blackmun, John
Paul Stevens, Antonin Scalia, Anthony
Kennedy and David Souter.
The Justice Department had joined
Noriega's lawyers in opposing the re
quest. In addition to the emergency request,
the court also turned down a formal
appeal filed by the cable network, in a
one-sentence order.
Lame-duck governor
may be new drug czar
WASHINGTON Florida Gov.
Bob Martinez, who recently lost his re
election bid, is likely to succeed William
Bennett as President Bush's top lieu
tenant in the war on drugs, a White
House official said Sunday.
"Martinez is probably going to be the
next drug czar," said the official, who
spoke on condition of anonymity.
"Nobody else is being actively con
sidered," the official said.
It was not clear when the nomination
might be announced.
Martinez, 55, was clobbered in his
re-election effort by former Sen. Lawton
Chiles, losing by a 57-43 margin. He
was only the second Republican gover
nor in Florida since Reconstruction, and
he was the second to lose a bid for a
second term. His term ends Jan. 8, when
Chiles is to be inaugurated.

NAACP
By MATTHEW EISLEY
Assistant University Editor
NAACP state President Kelly
Alexander said Sunday he would not
file a federal racial discrimination
complaint against the University unless
negotiations with Chancellor Paul
Hardin failed.
Alexander and Hardin met Sunday
night to discuss racial and gender dis
crimination at the University. The ne
gotiations could end unlawful dis
crimination faster than a federal legal
attack, Alexander said at an NAACP
rally before his meeting with Hardin.
Hardin said no decisions were reached

Odum Village residents question administrator
By PETER F. WALLSTEN
City Editor
Three University administrators
visited Odum Village Sunday night for
an informal discussion about UNC's
land-use plan and the proposed South
Loop Road, which would cut through
the family student housing area.
Donald Boulton, vice chancellor for
student affairs, Ben Tuchi, vice chan
cellor for business and finance, and
Wayne Kuncl, housing department di
rector, met with 14 Odum Village
residents for more than two hours in
what was a prelude to tonight's Chapel
Hill Town Council public hearing.
Tuchi spoke for most of the meeting,
Gifts of $100 will be requested
from parents of UNC stadente
By S0YIA ELLISON
Staff Writer
The Office of Development will re
quest one-time gifts of $100 from par
ents of UNC students, Board of Trust
ees chairman Earl Phillips said at a
Faculty Council meeting Friday.
Phillips plans to establish the
"Chancellor's Discretionary Fund,"
which could provide as much as $2
million for Chancellor Paul Hardin to
distribute to various University depart
ments. "We have 22,000 students," he said.

RTVMP alumni say UNC program
doesn't prepare students for jobs
By SHANNON 0'GRADY
Staff Writer
Graduates of the Radio, Television
and Motion Picture department said
Sunday that their education in the UNC
RTVMP department did not prepare
them for the job market after graduation.
1986 UNC graduate Jill Ortman, a
production director, said she wanted to
be a producer, but the RTVMP depart
ment did not prepare her for such a
career. Practical application of produc
tion techniques was missing from the
RTVMP curriculum, she said.
"My training had to come through
internships and elsewhere since the
education my family was paying fordid
not provide it," Ortman stated in a May
avoiding temptation as you grow older, it starts avoiding you. The Old
aigirees
described as forthright and amiable.
"There are not going to be any instant
decisions, but I felt very good about it,"
he said. "The issues are all under dis
cussion. I'd much rather be talking than
turning it over to the lawyers."
Certain issues could be resolved
within a few weeks, Hardin said. "We're
not going to drag this out forever." He
declined to discuss specifics of the
meeting, saying, "Things that we talked
about for three and a half hours cannot
be summarized in a few column inches."
Alexander said he had not retreated
from his earlier stance that legal action
may be necessary. "There's a difference
between really working to get something
explaining the basics of the land-use
plan and fielding questions about UNC's
commitment to family student housing.
Residents have complained that UNC
has not shown enough concern for re
placing Odum Village.
University officials want to reroute
Manning Drive to decrease traffic
around UNC Hospitals. The plan would
require the demolition of part of Odum
Village, leaving the area useless for
housing purposes.
UNC would like the South Loop plan
to be included in the state-funded
Thoroughfare Plan, which requires ap
proval by the town council. The council
will vote on the proposal Dec. 1 1.
over $2 million bucks."
The fund was not formally establ ished
by the BOT, but the concept of the fund
evolved after much discussion between
many different people, he said.
"We need something to help us get
through this rough spot in the road," he
said.
The Office of Development is draft
ing a letter to send to parents, which will
be signed by Phillips, Student Body
President Bill Hildebolt, chairman of
the Board of Visitors and chairman of
the Parent's Council, Phillips said.
The fund will not conflict with fund
raising efforts for the Bicentennial
25 letter to Gillian Cell, dean of the
College of Arts and Sciences.
"Most of the instruction I had (in the
RTVMP department) was very poor,"
Ortman said Sunday. "The teaching was
poor, the professors were poor and the
equipment was poor."
"There are technical aspects that you
really do need to know how to do
practically that the RTVMP department
did not teach," she said.
Peyton Reed, a 1986 UNC graduate
and writerdirector for Universal Pic
tures, said the RTVMP department
should offer more courses in technical
production to make its students more
marketable.
"My particular company does not
to negotiate wkh IMC
to happen and posturing." Requests for
federal intervention might take a year or
more to produce results, he said.
University Police officer Keith
Edwards, whose grievances and lawsuit
were among dozens prompting the in
volvement of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored People,
said she would file her own federal
complaint if the NAACP did not. "I
don't think the University will respond
to anything short of a federal investi
gation," said Edwards, a female African
American. "I'm dead set on asking for a
federal investigation."
Before the meeting, Alexander said
he would ask Hardin to show his good
DTHJoe Muhl
crowd Sunday afternoon in the Great Hall. The choir
was accompanied by a pianist and a drummer.
"We have no intention at all of doing
anything with South Loop until re
placement facilities have been arranged
for anything affected by South Loop,"
Tuchi said. "We also know that if we
can ever develop two parts of the cam
pus, we have to not only have arrange
ments for Odum Village, but also for
staff housing and faculty housing."
The University would prefer buying
a replacement for Odum Village rather
than building a new facility, he said.
During the summer, a committee headed
by Boulton recommended the purchase
of Glen Lennox Apartments. The owners
of Glen Lennox were not interested in
the proposition, but wanted some other
Campaign because chancellor's fund
letters will be sent only to parents of
presently enrolled students, and the
amount requested is not large, he said.
This fund will not solve the
University's budget problem, he said,
but will show support forthe University.
Three things are necessary for long
term financial improvement:
First, University members must lobby
the General Assembly aggressively for
more management flexibility. Second,
a tuition increase is necessary as long as
the money from the increase reverts

want to spend the time bringing people
up to speed with equipment," he said.
Technical training is important to
almost all aspects of television and film
industry, Reed said. "Even if you arc
not physically involved with equipment,
the hands-on experience is very im
portant because you have to deal with
technical people at some point."
Hap Kindem, RTVMP department
chairman, said the department placed
its primary focus on theory instead of
technology.
"We see our department with a liberal
arts perspective of mass media. We
want to develop critical thinking about

Compromise on
jievaiice policy
meets criticism
By STEPHANIE JOHNSTON
Assistant University Editor
State Employees Association of
North Carolina (SEANC) members said
Sunday they were angry no one notified
them that a compromise had been
reached on the proposed grievance
policy and that the proposal would be
sent to the State-Personnel Commission
today.
Chancellor Paul Hardin announced
Saturday in a statement from Texas that
the committee agreed to compromise
its position about lawyers being present
in the first three steps of the grievance
process. Lawyers would be able to
represent employees at Steps 3 and 4 of
the proposed grievance process, but not
at all stages as SEANC members have
type of equity, such as land.
"Building, we think now, is far more
expensive than buying," Tuchi said.
"Why don't we buy a complex now?
One reason is that we can't operate in
competition with the privately owned
apartments. Politically we'd get all sorts
of flack from those operating private
complexes because we'd be off the tax
rolls."
Chapel Hill Mayor Jonathan Howes
has said the University should build a
replacement, and not buy an existing
complex. Such a purchase would take
away a substantial amount of revenue
from the town's tax base, he said.
Tuchi said building a new complex
North Graham Street
search results in 13
arrests, crack seizure
By CULLEN D. FERGUSON
City Editor
Chapel Hill and Carrboro police
launched a surprise drug raid on North
Graham Street Friday night. State
Bureau of Investigation (SBI) officials
and Orange County police officers also
participated in the search which netted
one ounce of crack cocaine around
$2000 in cash, crystal methamphet
amine (ice), and drug paraphernalia.
Police had obtained a search war
rant for North Graham Street between
West Franklin and Rosemary streets,
and 13 arrests were made before the
raid was completed.
Lt. Barry Thompson of the Chapel
Hill Police Department said more than
40 police officers closed the street and
began to search the area around 9 p.m.
Thompson said no one was allowed to
leave the area until they had been
checked by police. Obtaining a warrant
for an entire street is not a common
procedure, he said
"It's been done before in North
Carolina, but not that often' he said.
"We had the assistance of the SBI in
obtaining the warrant."
Thompson said the operation was
deemed necessary after undercover
officers conducted a month-long in
vestigation of complaints of drug ac
tivity in the area. He said officers were
able to buy drugs on several different
occasions, and drug activity was
rampant in the area.
"We'd been receiving complaints
for a period of time about the drug
proposed grievance procedures in favor
of one acceptable to employees. The
University has proposed changes in the
grievance procedure to allow legal
representation at Step 3 of the grievance
process, but members of the State Em
ployee Association of North Carolina
said they were not satisfied.

University and the NAACP, to hold

requested. The first three steps of the
process are handled within the Univer
sity, and the fourth step is heard by an
administrative law judge.
The policy now used allows lawyers
to be present during Steps 3 and 4.
Before the proposal was compromised,
it eliminated them in all but Step 4.
SEANC members said area reporters
were the first to tell them about the
compromise. Members said they had
expected to meet with the mmittee
last Tuesday todiscuss several problems
in the proposal, but when they called to
confirm the meeting they were told

quire expenditures the University can
not afford.
"I'm not going to take any more
money out of academic affairs to sub
sidize that," he said. "I'd cancel South
Loop first."
Chapel Hill officials have said the
proposed realignment of Manning Drive
would disrupt bus service, namely the
campus shuttle route, which runs along
the portion of Manning Drive that would
be closed.
But Tuchi said the bus service still
could operate efficiently.

dealers hanging around on North Gra
ham Street," Thompson said. "There
were a lot of different small time
dealers working the area.
Thompson said a wide-scale op
erat ion was the only option police had
left to rid the area of its drug activity.
He said regular patrols of the street
had been ineffective because the
dealers only carried small amounts of
drugs at anyone time, and they would
drop them when police were spotted
in the area. After being questioned or
searched, the dealers would pick up
the drugs and sell again, he said.
"When the dealers sold their drugs,
they'd just duck into a drug house to
get more," Thompson said. "We
searched one house at the corner of
Rosemary Street and North Graham
Street and found a small amount of
narcotics."
Police officials said they hoped the
raid sent a message to drug dealers.
"What we're trying to tell the drug
dealers is that they no longer own the
street," Thompson said. "The people
of Chapel Hill do."
Among the suspects arrested were:
Dane Ellworth Boyea of 388
Midwood St., Brooklyn, N.Y., was
charged with possession with intent to
sell and deliver cocaine and was being
held on $ 1 0,000 bond Saturday in the
Orange County Jail.
