Chapel Hill has been overtaken by the colors of fall as leaves have turned from green to yellow and orange. The

Many Mental Patients in
Israel Survived Holocaust
JERUSALEM lsraeli authorities
may have needlessly kept hundreds of
Holocaust survivors in psychiatric hospi : '
tals for nearly half a century, health offi
cials admitted Sunday.
Dr. Motti Mark, head of the Health
Ministry’s mental health department, said
900 people nearly one-fifth of Israel’s
institutionalized mental patients were
Holocaust survivors.
Most arrived without families in the late
1940 sand were hospitalized immediately
for depression and a variety of other trauma
related illnesses. With more sophisticated
treatment, Mark admitted, some might
have been able to begin normal lives.

Police said there were no clashes during
the 1.2-mile march through the Ginza, a
major shopping and entertainment district.
Demonstrators, some accompanied by
children, carried banners with such slo

stationed in Japan. Opposition to the U.S.
military presence on Okinawa has grown

Irish Citizens Legalize
Divorce by Narrow Margin
DUBLIN, Ireland —Defying the wishes
of their church, Irish voters decided to
legalize divorce, but only by the narrowest
of margins. Ireland’s chief election official
ordered an immediate recount.
The first count showed the constitu
tional amendment passing with 50.2 per
cent of the vote, a margin of only 7,250
votes out of 1.6 million cast and the closest
vote in Irish history. The recount began
soon after the results were announced.
Ireland was the only country in the
Western world to constitutionally ban di
vorce, and lifting the prohibition would be
the country’s sharpest break with its Ro
man Catholic traditions.

UNC Eyes Carquest Bowl Invite,
Could Play Syracuse in Rematch
BY JUSTIN SCHEEF
MANAGING EDITOR
RALEIGH—After sitting on pins and
needles as N.C. State attempted to come
back and tie North Carolina, the Tar Heels
are waiting anxiously again.
This time, it’s for a bowl bid.
The Carquest Bowl committee will meet
today to decide who
to invite. UNC is a
likely choice.
By beating the
Wolfpack 30-28 on
Friday, UNC won
its sixth game of the
year and qualified for postseason play. The
only chance UNC has of playing a 12th
game seems to be the Carquest Bowl, held
Dec. 30 in Miami. The Tar Heels have
been to three straight bowls the Peach
Bowl in 1992, the Gator Bowl in 1993 and
the Sun Bowl last year.
Is Miami the next destination? Coach
Mack Brown and UNC certainly hope so.
“We want to go to a fourth bowl,” said
the eighth-year head coach. “It’s impor
tant for our program to go to a bowl.”
The Carquest pits the ACC’s No. 4
team against the Big East’s No. 3 team.

several years ago.
In the Republican response to Clinton’s
address, Rep. Susan Molinari, R-N.Y.,said
deciding whether to send troops would be
difficult and said there should be a com
plete public discussion of Clinton’s plans.
She did not rale out sending troops to
the former Yugoslavia. “Our soldiers’ bur
dens will be to protect new boundaries
drawn with the blood of innocent Bosnian
men, women and children,” Molinari said.
“This ... is the tragic reality which awaits
our troops and must be discussed quickly
and honestly with the American people. It
is a difficult, difficult decision for tomor

order.”
Clinton said American forces would
not be deployed “until Congress has a
chance to be heard" and members of both
parties have fully explored how the force
will operate and what its precise mission
and exit strategy will be.
The president has said he reserves the
right as commander in chief to deploy
American troops without congressional
authorization but will seek a resolution of
support from Congress. Deployment could

That means large generators of waste
like the school system must pay for the
cardboard to be taken away. “It’s fallen
back to each generator to hire somebody to
do it,” Kinnaird said. She also said com
pleting this task may cost the school system
as much as SIO,OOO a year.
“It was an unforeseen problem,”
Kinnaird said. “You do a good thing, and
don’t realize you're adding a burden. We
still felt it was worth it.”
Marshall, who is the principal at
Carrboro Elementary School, said the
schools also could face fines for cardboard
and aluminum cans in their dumpsters that
were not placed there by the school.
“If aluminum cans or cardboard is found
in the dumpsters, the school will have to
pay for them,” Marshall said.

tradition ofhaving a ram on the sidelines of
football games dates back to 1922 when the
Tar Heels racked up a 9-1 record behind a
bruising fullback named Jack “The Batter

Two years later UNC head cheerleader
Vic Huggins decided something was miss

said. “Georgia had a bulldog for a mascot
and State had a wolf. What Carolina needed
was a symbol.”
Huggins brought his idea before Charlie
Woollen with the proposal that UNC have

liked the idea and allocated $25 for the
