2 Monday, August 26,1996 Police, state agencies snag 12 drunken drivers in checkpoints BY ANGELA MOORE ASSISTANT CITY EDITOR Law enforcement officials were out in force Friday night and the early hours of Saturday morning stopping motorists at two Chapel Hill checkpoints. Twelve people were charged at the checkpoints, which were a joint effort by the Chapel Hill Police Department’s Traf fic Education and Enforcement Unit, the N.C. Department of Motor Vehicles En forcement Division and N.C. Highway Patrol and Alcohol Law Enforcement. Officials stopped traffic from 11 p.m. Friday until 3:30 a.m. Saturday. One checkpoint was on East Franklin Street near Elliot Road. While only 12 people were charged with DWI, Lieutenant Tim Pressley of the Chapel Hill Police De partment stated in a press release that BOOKS FROM PAGE 1 have accounts set up to buy books di rectly from Student Stores. When Student Stores does not stock a particular text, Mahalek said the stu dents are forced to make other arrange ments with the professor. “Instead of ECLIPSE FROM PAGE 1 cigarette,” said Dietrich Hoffmann, as sociate director of the American Health Foundation’s Naylor Dana Institute for Disease Prevention. “There is a group of people who will not give up smoking,” he said, adding that the tobacco industry had an obliga tion to market a “less-harmful cigarette” for that population. However, Dr. Neal Benowitz, a pro fessor at the University of Califomia-San Francisco and a specialist in smoking related cardiovascular disease, said Eclipse would probably not be safer than regular cigarettes. “Eclipse cigarette exposes people to the same level of nicotine and carbon monoxide —some of the chemicals that play a role in heart disease,” he said.

Geshuri said that argument was not valid. “A huge percentage of scholarship recipients are given cash, so it’s not an issue.” Anthropology Professor Don Nonini orders his books from the International ist rather than Student Stores. Nonini lungs than regular cigarettes, said Dr. Donald Taskin, professor of medicine at the University of Califomia-Los Ange les, but it will take years before doctors can determine its effects on lung cancer and emphysema. “We know that these two lung dis eases are impacted by the amount of tobacco consumed. The best way to pre vent them is to stop smoking,” he said. Another way could be to reduce the “noxious" elements like tar in cigarette smoke, Taskin said. “Eclipse does achieve that objective,” he said. The doctors pointed out that Eclipse would be detrimental to the public if the idea of a “safer” cigarette encourages people to start smoking. “This would be to the public health’s advantage only if it reduces the danger to cigarette smokers, ” Benowitz said. “If the product is ap proved, it will have to be monitored to see what direction it’s going in.” UNIVERSITY & CITY camore Drive, Gamer.

I feel my students should know about it.” Nonini said ordering textbooks from the Internationalist was also less time consuming, involving only one phone GREENSPACE FROM PAGE 1 lems with that: one is that it was never really the way they remember it and the other is that everybody was here at differ ent times. “I think what you’ve got to do is balance green space with all of the other needs of the University.” Ultimately, Rutherford said the issue came down to the way green space was laid out on campus, not how much of it there was. And administrators have established a protocol for handling green space and open space on campus, the Central Cam pus Open Space Preservation Policy. The policy requires the Facilities Plan ning and Design Office to prepare an official Open Space Map, to be approved by the Chancellor and the Board ofTrust ees. In order to erect any new buildings, Revamped DDA holds fall auditions ■ New Studio I program turns the production reins over to student directors. BY LILY THAYER ASSISTANT ARTS EDITOR The Department of Dramatic Art’s newly formed student repertory com pany, DDA Studio I, will hold auditions today for its fall season. The department, which restructured the program formerly known as DDA this summer from a faculty-directed to a student-directed operation, will be look ing to cast 12 students as performers in the company’s four productions this se mester. The twelve actors will work with four student directors throughout the fall sea son. Company members will be involved in technical and design work when not acting in a given production. According to faculty and students in call. “I don’t have to fill out all those (forms),” he said. “It cuts out a lot of the bureaucracy.” Mahalek said professors have more options when placing a textbook order with Student Stores. “You can order by e-mail, phone or fax,” she said. “We do not mandate that faculty fill out (a request).’’tcess.” roads or parking lots in designated open spaces, officials must demonstrate an extraordinary need for the space and show that all alternate sites have been investi gated and found unavailable. The policy also requires administra tors to take into account the “existing campus character” when planning for campus growth. New designs must in clude descriptions of how the additions will complement existing campus green spaces. Rutherford said a land use plan writ ten in 1988 stated the upper limits of construction on campus should be about 15 million square feet. With an average expansion of about 1.7 million square feet every 10 years, Rutherford said the University would soon reach that limit. Satellite campuses could be the solu tion, but many students, staff and faculty would be opposed to traveling to such campuses, Rutherford said. the department, the company’s incep tion is the result of a complete overhaul of the DDA student theater program. The changes follow summerlong depart mental discussions. Claire Campbell, a senior from Greens boro, and Ted Shaffner, a senior from Highlands, have been enlisted as the two student administrators, or studio direc tors, of the revamped program. According, to Campbell, the expanded number of productions, from one fac ulty-directed play to four staged events per semester, represents a significant change from past seasons. To accom plish the feat of doing four shows on a budget previously allotted for one, Shaffner and Campbell have decided to create a fixed company of no more than 16 performers. “We decided the only way we could accomplish four full productions was to have the actors rotate,” Campbell said. Creating anew company automati cally pulls twelve of the campus theater community’s members out of contention TOBACCO FROM PAGE 1 “If you support Bill Clinton, then you are supporting his intrusion in another area,” Hayes said. Hunt said he had pressed the Clinton administration for the adoption of an alternative anti-smoking initiative by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This initiative focuses on tougher enforcement oflaws against teen age smoking and stronger education. .
