2The Daily Tar HeelThursday, October 22, 1992 Can can: Events set for Recycling Week By Donna van der Dijs Staff Writer Can crashes, T-shirt sales and a recy cling quiz bowl will be some of the highlights of Recycling Week, a semi annual event designed to raise campus awareness about the need for conserva tion and recycling. The Tarheel Recycling Program, the sponsor of Recycling Week, will have activities in the Pit throughout the week to help educate students on different ways to recycle, TaRP co-chairwoman Tina Habash said. TaRP, which is part of the Student Environmental Action Coalition, spon sors one Recycling Week each semes ter. The week begins Monday with a quiz bowl in the Pit. Questions in the quiz will deal with recycling issues. On Tuesday, the traditional Recy cling Week "can crash" will be held, Habash said. Different teams of stu dents race to see which group is able to crash a bag full of aluminum cans first. The TaRP Olympics will be held Wednesday. Students will be searched to see how much of their clothing and how many of the things they have with them are recyclable, Habash said. Objects also will be sorted out in different categories, to make students aware of what materials can be recycled on campus. "This will promote envi ronmental education," Habash said. On Thursday, SEAC will hold a rally in the Pit at noon to endorse the "Green Team," political candidates running for election who support the environment, SEAC co-chairman Josh Busby said. Several state candidates, including N.C. Rep. Anne Barnes, D-Orange, Dennis Wicker, the Democratic nominee for lieutenant governor, and U.S. Rep. David Price, D-N.C, will attend, Busby said. Next Friday has been designated T shirt and zero garbage day. TaRP will have a table in the Pit to promote both events, Habash said. "The goal of zero garbage day is to have people reduce their waste as much as possible," Habash said. TaRP will sell T-shirts in the Pit throughout the week, and TaRP mem bers will hold a bake sale Friday. "We hope everybody enjoys (the week)," Habash said. "We try to make it as fun as possible for everyone. I think it's going to go well." Wicker from page 1 String of bicycle thefts reported By Dale Castle Staff Writer Chapel Hill and Carrboro police offi cials said Wednesday that they were concerned about a rash of bike thefts Saturday in which three bikes were sto len in less than four hours. In all of the cases, the owners had not registered their bikes with the fire or police departments. At 4 p.m., a bike valued at $ 1 SO was reported stolen from Mallette Street in Chapel Hill, police reports stated. At 4:38 p.m., a bike valued at $100 was reported missing from Royal Park Apartments where it was locked to a wooden fence. Although the lock was still intact, the wooden fence appeared to have been taken apart, according to police reports. At 7:38 p.m., a bike valued at $350 was reported stolen from Barr-ee Sta tion on 149 E. Franklin St. Chapel Hill police detective Barry Thompson said that if people registered their bikes, it would be easier to find them or collect insurance money if they could not be located. Thompson added that bikes could be registered free of charge at the Chapel Hill Police Department, the fire depart ment or with University Police. Bicycle theft steadily has increased in Chapel Hill and Carrboro since the summer, according to police statistics. In 1992, 118 bicycles were stolen between June and September, in 1991, 105 were taken; and in 1990, 86 bike thefts were reported, according to sta tistics. Chapel Hill and Carrboro police de tectives said they agreed that locks alone would not stop thieves. Carrboro police Detective Tom Hall said thieves often carried the equipment they needed to steal bicycles. "If (thieves) want something bad enough, they'll go and find the tools to fit the job," Hall said. Thompson said stolen bikes often were sold for quick drug money. "(Thieves) trade stolen bikes for rocks of cocaine," he said. Chapel Hill Lt. Wilbur Simmonssaid he recommended people store theirbikes in their homes whenever possible. "If you're going to keep (a bike) on a bike rack, stop and think how a thief would try and steal the bike," he said. was public schools. "I want to make the public school system work," he said. Wicker, who is endorsed by N.C. public school teachers, noted the recent im provement in state SAT scores and the decrease in the dropout rate. He said he wanted to help improve and speed up the trends toward improved education. Wicker said he looked forward to working with Jim Hunt, the Democratic nominee for governor, to create a pro gressive public school system. Wicker said he always would be ac cessible to the electorate. "I want to be a working, visible, energetic lieutenant governor. I want to roll up my shirt sleeves and get in the game." There is still a lot of campaigning to do in the race. Wicker said. "There are still a lot of undecided voters, and we have to be prepared to meet those challenges," Wicker said. "Things look good; everybody's talk ing about how rosy it is. But I don't want to happen to the Democratic Party what happened to the Pittsburgh Pirates the other night."
