Valentine’s Day Coincides
With National Condom Day
BYERIC FLACK
STAFF WRITER
Today is Valentine’s Day, a day de
voted to celebrating the love between two
people. Today is also National Condom
Day, a day devoted to promoting the use of
condoms when two people are celebrating
that love.
National groups, who are observing the
day through contests and free literature
distribution, and campus groups, who are
working together in order to distribute
condoms and encourage safe sex, are put
ting their own spin on National Condom
Day.
Student Health will be in the Pit today
with free condoms and has enlisted the
help of Bisexuals, Gay men, Lesbians and
Allies for Diversity in attracting the atten
tion of students to National Condom Day.
Karen Erickson, chairwoman ofß-Glad,
said that group representatives would be in
the Pit to run games and activities in the
hope that students would feel less awk
ward about walking up to the Student
Health table and taking free condoms.
Erickson said that one ofß-Glad’s goals
today is to encourage people to talk openly
about sex so that they can start having it
safely.
“It is such a taboo thing in our society,”
Erickson said. “TV is promoting sex, sex,
sex everywhere, but then in the schools we
can’t talk about it. If you are having sex, do
it safely.”
Elinor Coates, a member of the public
relations staff at the American Social Health
Association, said that National Condom
Day falling on Valentine’s Day serves as
another reason for those who are having
sex or thinking about having sex to be safe.
“Why not encourage condom use when
it’s on people’s minds anyway,” Coates

Leanne Hand, spokesperson for Durex,
said that the lighter approach to condom
promotion came about because of a con

UNIVERSITY & CITY
Council Considers ‘University’ Zoning for Tract
BY ANGELA MOORE
STAFF WRITER
The debate between the University and
Chapel Hill over the development of the
970-acre Horace Williams tract has existed
for years, but after Monday night’s town
council meeting, the issue may be a step
closer to being resolved.
In a meeting that lasted more than four
and a half hours, the council resolved to
consider rezoning the tract north of town
under anew kind of University zoning
expected to be developed by June. It also
scheduled a public hearing June 17 to get
input from the public on the proposed
rezoning.
The resolution, which passed unani
mously, was a modified version of another
resolution the council considered earlier in
the evening. Mayor Rosemary Waldorf
and council member Richard Franck
amended the original resolution.
The original resolution proposed rezon
ing the area based on existing zoning cat
egories. But that action would have ig
nored joint University and Planning Board
efforts to create anew “University zone”
for the property.
Town Manager Cal Horton and the
town staff recommended that the council

The original resolution was drafted by
town staff in response to citizen petitions
from the North Haven and Ironwoods
neighborhoods surrounding the Horace
Williams tract. The citizens presented a
petition to the council in Januaiy asking
for protection from potential large-scale
development in the area. They suggested
establishing interim zoning in the area to
limit what could be built on the land.
Currently, the tract is classified as Of

stitutional 3 (01-3). The 01-3 zone, which
allows for offices, hospitals, residence halls
and other large structures, has been called
inappropriate and antiquated by both resi
dents and council members because of the
broad range of structures it allows.
Two residents from the affected neigh
borhoods, Victor Friedman from the Alli
ance of Neighborhoods, former council
member Jim Protzman and University
Vice-Chancellor Elson Floyd, spoke to the
council about rezoning the property.
Friedman said he believed the land
should be rezoned to protect surrounding
neighborhoods. “ThetownandUniversity
need to work together, but the town should
also protect its interests,” he said.
Floyd said the University wanted to
continue the planning process and to look
for anew, more appropriate zone rather
than rezone the land now.
Protzman told the council that voting to
consider rezoning the property now would
damage the town’s relations with the Uni
versity.
Council member Mark Chilton and
council members Julie Andresen and Joyce
Brown voiced their support for the original
resolution. “The citizens deserve some cer
tainty now, ” Andresen said. “We’re doing
ourjobs to consider outmoding this zone.”
its not the way to run a publication, the
way to make a point or the way to support
an issue.”
The Review announced Monday they
had chosen anew faculty adviser, John
Shelton Reed, a professor in the Depart
ment of Sociology and the director of the
Institute of Research of Social Sciences.
Reed said Tuesday night that he had not
seen the issue and was not aware of its
content.
“I have no opinion on it,” Reed said. “I
haven’t seen the issue.”
Reed said he would serve only as a
temporary adviser to the Review because
he would be leaving the country this sum
mer.
The forms for the new adviser were
turned in at 11 a.m. onMonday, according
to a press release issued Monday night by
the Review.
According to the press release, there
was no lapse in student group recognition
because the Review found Reed to art as
their adviser. Funds were not affected, the
press release states.

“It was inspiring to me to see someone

. In addition to his work vyith the gay and
lesbian community, Brown had worked
with the town during the mid-1980s on
issues affecting its citizens, said Joe
Herzenberg, former Chapel Hill town coun
cil member.
“He left a considerable impression as a
model citizen and a gay activist,”
Herzenberg said.
After moving from Oregon to Chapel
Hill in 1976, Brown lobbied for tenants’
rights and low-income and moderate-in
come housing. In the mid-’Bos, Brown
submitted a report to the town proposing
an extensive system of parks for recreation
and pedestrian use.

Joe Capowski and Lee Pavao both said
the town should continue working with
the University to establish anew zone
rather than rush to rezone the property and
endanger town-gown relations.
Pavao said that the planning process
and search for anew zone must continue.
“We can zone it (the tract) after we know
how to zone it properly.”
Waldorf then suggested the coqncil wait
until the new University zone is completed
before holding a public hearing on rezon
ing the Horace Williams tract. “We can
have the public hearing on real zoning
not spend time on zoning that is unneces
sary and inappropriate.”
The release also states that publication
was not hindered in the transition of advis
ers. The Review has published four issues
in three and a half weeks and intends to
return to normal operating schedule as a
campus monthly magazine, the release
states.
The release states, “It is essential to
understand we have published more in the
past month than any other campus maga
zine has all year. We will continue to
prosper.”
Reed said he had no prior involvement
with the Review but knew some students
who worked for the publication. The Caro
lina Review is a periodical publication that
labels itself “UNC’s conservative voice.”
“I told them (the Review) I would sign
the necessary form,” Reed said.
Reed said that, out of obligation, he has
served as an adviser to many student orga
nizations on campus such as WXYC radio
station and several fraternities.

Brown’s final crusade was lobbying

Brown was known as an activist on all
levels, from the town to the gay and lesbian
community. Ferguson said although he
thought the gay and lesbian community
would suffer a setback from his death,
Brown would not have wanted the com
munity to mourn.
“He wouldn’t want his death to discour
age, but rather to inspire people,” he said.
“He showed that you have to keep on
