J
Parking Meters
to be installed
February 25, 1970 THE CAROLINA JOURNAL Page 3
A student petition bearing the names of fifty-two individuals was
considered by the Traffic and Parking Committee on Friday, February
6, 1970. Complaints were heard from residents of Moore and Sanford
Halls concerning parking restrictions and completion of sidewalks and
lighting around the dormitories.
Completion of the roadway, walks, lighting, and land-scaping has
been delayed by weather conditions and other complications. These
conditions should be sharply improved within the next few weeks. The
unpaved section of the street will be paved in early March, and the
installation of lighting and sidewalks between the parking lot and the
dormitories should begin about the same date. In addition, plans are
now proceeding for early landscaping and beautification of the areas
around the dormitories, the cafeteria, and the parking lot.
The student petition also requested that dormitory students be
allowed to use parking spaces assigned to commuting students.
However, there is a shortage of parking spaces for visitors, faculty, staff,
and commuting students, many of whom are forced to use the
temporary lot near the Smith Building. The Traffic and Parking
Committee, therefore, will be unable to authorize the use of these
parking areas by dormitory students.
However, the Committee has recommended some changes that may
alleviate some of the parking problems for the dormitory students. The
Committee has recommended that parking meters be installed as
follows: main parking lot, 36 meters; Smith Building area, 5 meters;
Union parking lot, 24 meters; and the dormitory "U" lot, 29 meters.
These meters may be used by anyone under thefollowingconditions:
(1) Meters in the Main, Smith, and Union Parking Lots will be set for a
uiinimum of one hour and a maximum of three hours and at a charge of
fOc per hour. These meters will be policed from 7:00 A.M. to 9:00
f’ M. except on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. (2) Meters in the
f^ormitory "U" lot will be set for a minimum of thirty minutes and a
uiaximum of one hour and at a charge of 10c per thirty minutes. These
uieters will be policed twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week
^’‘cept that the Security Force may exercise their discretion during late
hours and on special occasions. (3) Users may "re-feed" the meters so
as to purchase additional time.
These new recommendations would allow students, faculty, and
''isitors the option of buying or not buring a decal. For example,
students with as few as one class per week would financially benefit
'fom using the metered spaces rather than pruchasing the more
Expensive parking decal.
Metered parking spaces will have to accommodate visitors (including ^7 McCorkle
Parents and friends). These parking spaces should not be monopolized.
No Exit From Hell
PHOTO BY RICHARD ALSOP
The doors to the Parquet Room were locked, the lights dimmed and the temperature began to rise. Suddenly there was
No Exit from hell. The play was off and running in the first five minutes, when two women and a bearded man
(resembling old Lucifer himselO were cast, not into the hell fire and brimstone of Milton’s hell, but rather into a
subterranian room sparse with props.
A Satanic bellboy, minus horns and a pitchfork, but wearing metal-rimmed sunglasses, escorted the doomed victims to the
Stage. A fox which symbolizes sex before watchful eyes, and the lone backdrop, a bellcord that symbolized the character's
lack of control over the events in hell.
So, there they were with no thumbscrews, mirrors, or eyelids for the unfortunates. With nothing to feat, what could
possibly make the deceased sinners suffer? And the answer: themselves!
The University Union presented the Pacific Repretory Company in “No Exit” last Friday afternoon to a near-capacity
audience. Thou^i die setting was not elaborate, the four actors in the cast offset the sparse number of props by superb
performances. The Pacific Repretory Company also presented “Taming of the Shrew” and “Cyrano de Bergerac”

In a special meeting the UNCC Student
Legislature amended a previously adopted
motion which concerned-in part- a $100
contribution to the Dave Blevins Legal
Defense Fund.
The original motion, introduced by
Sophomore Representative Ed Wayson,
had been approved at a February 15
meeting by a margin of 6 to 5. It reads as
follows in unamended form:
"I (Ed Wayson) propose,
1. That the Student Legislature of
UNCC support faculty action through the
AAUP (American Association of
University Professors) and other
appropriate faculty bodies to change the
University's hastily adopted policy on
disruption.
2. We feel that Dave Blevins'es decision
to test the University's action in his case
to the full extent of the law represents an
important additional avenue of redress.
3. In order to show our support of the
AAUP in testing the constitutionality of
the present University's disruption policy
the Student Legislature grants $100 to

A full-time minister on campus is
becoming a reality. The United Methodist
(Ourch and the Presbyterian Church now
collectively have funds to hire a
University Chaplain.
Dr. Loy Witherspoon, Director of the
United Religious Ministry at UNCC,
explained that desire for such a minister
began two years ago when the
Methodists, Presbyterians, and Baptists
joined in an effort to obtain a chaplain to
organize religious activities on campus.
Mr. Ray Cunningham, the Presbyterian
representative and Chairman of the
United Religious Ministry Board; and Dr.
Jay Ostwalt, Methodist representative and
vice chairman of the URM, are receiving
many applications for the new position.
Such a University Chaplain would be
responsible for organizing groups for
study, action, and service in connection
with a Christian-Campus Ministry.
Although he would reside off campus,
he would have offices in the dormitories
and v«\>uld spend most of each day on
campus so that he would be available to
the students. [
Plans for a religious life center are now
under consideration too. Rather than a
chapel restricted to worship services, the
religious life center would be used for
coffeehouses, movies, play readings, and
other forms of a full religious life.
the Dave Blevins Legal Defense Fund."
On Friday February 20, the Legislature
met in special session and amended the
motion by deleting certain sections and
phrases. The entire motion now reads: "I
propose, 1. That the Student Legislature
of UNCC support faculty action through
the AAUP and other appropriate faculty
bodies to change the University's policy
on Disruption."
The original motion had been debated
considerably with the chief points of
argument being the use of student funds
to provide for Blevins'es legal fees, and
the "point" of the motion itself.
According to Ed Wayson, "The point is
that Mr. Blevins was treated as being
guilty before the outcome of his trial.
The School of Social Work at (^apel Hill
would not consider his application for the
spring semester because of his
'involvement' in the case". (Blevins was
under a semester contract.
Wayson went on to say that the $100
was a "token gesture to show our support
in his appeal to the courts."
Opponents felt that the University
had the right to refuse to rehire Blevins
and/or that the donating of $100 for
Blevins' s legal fees was a misuse of
student funds.
After the initial passage of the motion,
news of the Legislature's donation spread
via students, newspapers, and even T. V.
There was much reaction» among
community and campus, especially from
the 9 Legislature members who had been
absent when the motion was voted on.
As a result of the controversy
surrounding the motion, the special
meeting was called which allowed for a
reconsideration and an amendment.
S.G.A. President F. N. Stewart was
present at the special meeting and offered
suggestions. He felt that instead of
focusing on Blevins, the Legislature
should support an alteration of the
disruption policy.
"The AAUP has specific
recommendations for altering the policy
on disruption and the Legislature should
support them. This is really what Blevins
is seeking to do."
Stewart referred to the disruption
policy as being "too strict and in need of
change."
Blevins was brought before the
University Hearings (k>mmittee at Chapel
Hill for dismissing his class during the
Viet Nam War Moratorium of October
15. The Committee, by a vote of 4 to 3,
found him guilty of violating the
disruption policy.
His case is now before the Middle
District Court in Greensboro, N. C. where
the constitutionality of his dismissal is
being questioned.
