WASHINGTON The body of Earl Vsrren, 14th chief Justice of the United States,
lay in repose Thursday in the Supreme Court Building, near the colleagues and
friends with whom he served for 16 years.
With the twin flags on the Supreme Court plaza at half staff, the flag-draped casket
was received outside the marble-pillared edifice by 12 present and former justices. It
was carried up the high flight of steps by eight Supreme Court policemen and placed
on a catafalque inside the main hall.

an says Ninon knew of hush money
WASHINGTON John W. Dean III told the House Judiciary Committee Thursday
ha now believes he and President Nixon discussed the possibility of paying hush
money to the Watergate defendants prior to their March 21, 1973, taped
conversation, according to two committee members.
Reps. Hamilton Fish, R-N.Y., and George E. Danielson, D-Calif., provided that
account of the former White House counsel's testimony, which was taken in closed
session. Fish discounted the importance of the disclosure, but Danielson said It has
potential significance.
Ziegler blasts committees' action
WASHINGTON Presidential spokesman Ronald L. Ziegler Thursday accused
the House Judiciary and the Senate Watergate committees of trying to manipulate
public opinion by releasing piecemeal evidence supporting impeachment of
President Nixon.
Ziegler, criticizing the committees for the third straight day, focused his attack on
a 320-page Watergate committee report released Wednesday citing evidence that
Nixon used campaign funds for his personal use and the Judiciary Committee's
decision to release Thursday some 4,133 pages of previously secret evidence.
Senate votes to repeal "no knock"
WASHINGTON The Senate voted 64 to 31 Thursday to repeal the controversial
"no knock" provision in the federal drug laws.
An amendment to strike the provision from the law was added to an $375 million
authorization measure to extend the life of the Drug Enforcement Administration for
five years. The legislation must now be approved by the House.
The controversial statute, enacted in 1970, authorized narcotic agents to obtain
court warrants to forcibly break into en individual's home or office where narcotics
ere suspected to exist. -
Watergate prosecutors reveal tape gap
WASHINGTON Watergate prosecutors revealed Thursday there is a 19-minute
gap on a tape recording of the meeting where President Nixon and John D.
Ehrlichman apparently discussed the Ellsberg break-in for the first time.
Assistant Prosecutor Richard Den-Veniste mentioned the gap during a hearing
before U.S. District Judge John J. Sirica, but he did not elaborate on it.
The conversation took place on March 20, 1973, the day before which Nixon said
he first learned the full details of the Watergate cover-up from John W. Dean III.

shakeup, announced the dismissals from the presidential palace at Deism.
Franklin Street business good
by Frank Griffin
Staff Writer
University Mall will officially be one year
old next month but Franklin Street
merchants apparently have not been greatly
affected by the competition.
The squall that was raised when plans for
the new shopping complex were announced
fears that downtown business would
suffer, fears that the Mall was just another
step toward the loss of an atmosphere
Chapel Hill was trying to preserve that
worry has, if not passed, at least subsided for
now.
Kay Vandenborre, Promotion Director
for University Mall Merchants, said she saw
Chapel Hill as having both a traditional and
an untraditional element in its character.;
"The Mall is something new for Chapel
Hill," she said. "A lot of people were in favor
of it; a lot were very much opposed. It's a
matter of reorientation." Vandefborre siad:
she thought the Mall had been accepted now. !
Business has been very good at the Mall, '
particularly since January, she added. ;
"People are getting used to us now. They .
know where we're located. And the .
merchants have discovered patterns of what
Chapel Hillians and Durhamites want."
Bob Rosenbacher, owner of the Hub and ;
head of. an informal association of
downtown merchants, said, "I don't think
the University Mall has had any great effect
of United Pru Intarnational
s
Ilk little eifffeclt downtown!
yet on business conditions in the central
business district (CBD), but this doesn't
mean in the long haul it won't." He said the
CBD's business volume stayed about the
same during the past year, despite inflation
and the influx of new people, and did not
show the five-to-ten per cent increase it
should have.
Executive Director of the Chapel Hill
Carrboro Merchants' Association Joe
Augustine said the Mall's effect on Chapel
Hill business could be seen.in the increase in
gross sales per month from year-to-year.
August 1973 gross sales were $1.1 million
greater than a year earlier. December was $2
million higher. February, 1974 showed an
increase of $1.3 million, and March, $1.5
million. -
"Most of this is a reflection of the increase
due to the Mall," Augustine said. "For the
first time in a long time the Mall has given
Chapel Hill a reasonable, if not favorable,
balance of trade, particularly with Durham."
Augustine said the Mall had kept some
shoppers in Chapel Hill who had previously
been going to Raleigh and Durham. Ivey's at ,
North Hills in Raleigh, for example, had
about 2,000 customers with charge accounts
from this area alone, he said. In addition to
transferring clientele from other areas, the
mall has found new customers in Chapel Hill
and brought customers from Hillsborough
and Pittsboro, he said.

Two UNC students and three other
Chapel Hill area residents were arrested on
drug charges Wednesday in a statewide
crackdown described by State Bureau of
Investigation (SBI) Director Charles Dunn
as the largest drug raid ever in North
Carolina.
More than 100 drug suspects were arrested
June 10 and II following undercover
investigations by SBI detectives and local
police departments. Chapel Hill police
spokesmen said the five area arrests followed
a two-week investigation, and that all five
were implicated in a local conspiracy to sell
marijuana.

Federal financial aid for UNC students
will be increased in -1974-75 by over $1
million, Director of Student Aid William
Geer announced Wednesday.
"If any student admitted to this University
has need, the Student Aid Office will meet
it," Geer said. "I'm glad we have this
additional money so many people can be
financed without any question. We do have
adequate funds for every student admitted to
this University, so everyone who feels a
pinch should apply."
The Student Aid Office received
allocation letters for the additional money
last week from the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare (HEW).
Geer said the federal Basic Educational
Opportunity Grant Program, initiated last
year for the benefit of incoming freshmen,
has been increased from $77,050 to $331,150
and extended to include sophomores.
This program is being gradually increased
toward eventual replacement of the federal
Supplemental Education Opportunity
Grants for students from the lowest income
group, which has been cut from $368,479 in
1974-75 to $297,097 next year.
The largest federal student assistance
program, the National Defense Student
Loan Fund, will offer over a million dollars
in loans to Carolina students next year.
"Under this program, we received a half
million more than in the previous year,"
Geer said. The University finances only
about 10 per cent of this program.
The federal allocation for UNC's Work
Study Program was increased from last
year's $384,950 to $441,165. The state and
the University will add matching funds to
make a total of $55 1 ,456 available in student
salaries.
Weather
Sunny and warm today through
Saturday with temperatures in the
low to mid 80s. The high
temperature tonight will be in the
60s. The chance of rain is 10 per
cent today.
merchants had told her, 40 per cent of the
Mall's business was from Durham and 60 per
cent from Chapel Hill.
Asked if there was a conflict between the
mall and the merchants in the Central
Business District, Augustine said, "I don't
know that the two cannot co-exist because
there's a different direction to their
merchandising."
He said the mall seemed to emphasize
higher priced merchandise, particularly in
advertising, while the downtown area
continued to emphasize more practical
merchandising geared to students.
"Chapel Hill is unique. It has an
abundance of young people arid a greai
number of specialty shops, so it has become
an attraction in itself," he said.
Augustine said the CBD's 60 restaurants
were a large factor in drawing shoppers to
the downtown area.
Rosenbacher said there was a complete
difference between merchandising
downtown and at the Mall. "The downtown
merchants have kept their merchandising to
fit the mood and needs of the town of Chapel
Hill," he said.
Vandenborre said she saw no difference in
the merchandising at the Mall. "The prices
out here are no more or no less than
anywhere else." A generalization about
merchandising couldn't be made, she said,
because many of the stores at the Mall have
no counterpart in the CBD.
Dunn said Wednesday the dragnet arrests
would not have a significant impact on drug
distribution in North Carolina. "I think it
will probably slow it down for a few days,"
he said, "but it will not stop the drug traffic
by any means."

SYDNEY (UPI) Australia's labor

Sinatra, 58, reached what was called
"an honorable settlement" with the leader
of the Australian trade union movement
at a four-hour meeting in Sinatra's
luxurious suite on the 23rd floor of the
Boulevard Hotel.
Bob Hawke, president of the
Australian Council of Trade Unions, and
the entertainer's lawyer Milton Rudin,

both parties, to newsmen outside later.
Both said neither had backed down.

University Mall has a "different merchandising mood."
According to Rosenbacher, the possibility
that Franklin Street may one day be closed
to traffic and become a pedestrian mall still
exists. He said he saw the pedestrian mall as
the final step in the improvement of the
CBD, once the traffic flow has been
increased, better lighting is available, and the
off-street parking has been tripled or
quadrupled by expansion of parking decks.

merchants won't agree, I think this is the best

Other Orange County residents arrested in
the raid are Bruce Elliott Julian and
Deborah Burrell Julian, both of Old
Highway 86, and Virginia Acree, of 16
Spring Hill Trailer Park.
They were charged with felonious
possession of marijuana and possession with
intent to sell. In addition, the Julians were
charged with conspiracy to sell marijuana,
and Bruce Julian was charged with
possession of heroin. Deborah Julian was
charged with possession of MDA, an
hallucinogen.

In the statement, Sinatra said his
remarks were not intended to cast "any
general reflection . upon the moral
character of working members of the
Australian media."
Sinatra also "expressed his regret for
any physical injury suffered by persons as
a result of attempts to insure his personal
safety." His bodyguards had been
accused of roughing up television
journalists and photographers.
But Rubin denied Sinatra's remarks

Dr. Christopher C. Fordham, dean of the
UNC Medical School, said he discontinued
use of the nurse-midwife when the project
was first challenged without making a
personal judgment of the project's legality.
State law requires that abortions be
performed by licensed physicians in
hospitals or clinics certified by the
Department of Human Resources.
"It would appear to serve no useful
purpose for the state to prosecute," Pierce
said after receiving a detailed report of the
project from Fordham.
Pierce said he was satisfied with the

Asked how she thought the new bus
system would affect Chapel Hill's shopping
patterns, Vandenborre said it would
probably help the mobility of students and
retired persons without a car and would
probably help the mall's business.
Part of the mall's parking lot is scheduled
to be a drop point for commuters to leave
their cars and take a bus into town. A
definite amount of space has not yet been
allotted, Vandenborre said.

patients had been properly informed of the
experimental nature of their abortions.
"Dean Fordham is a mSn of honor," he said.
"I certainly have no reason to doubt him."
The purpose of the project was to
determine whether certified nurse-mid wives
could be trained to perform abortions. The
results of the study concluded that the
medical care provided by the nurse-midwife
was as effective as that offered by certified
physicians.
Fordham has declined to discuss details of
the project and has instructed all those
involved to do the same.
Williams seeks
student 'inHera
for UeioEi plan
The Carolina Union, now cramped for
space, is to be expanded over. the next five
years. Parts of the planned expansion
include the addition of a third floor and a
new wing to the building. Some of this space
would be used for a movie theatre, and new
television and party rooms, Union Director
Howard Henry said.
"Other facilities planned include more
space for University-recognized
organizations and proposals for a satellite
health clinic," Student Body President
Marcus Williams said.
A satellite clinic would be similar to the
Student Health Service, but more
convenient to North Campus residents.
"We're also stressing facilities for
international students who no longer have
the facilities of Carr Dorm," Williams said.
The international Student Center was
evicted from Carr Dorm last month.
Proposals for other sendees and facilities
in the expanded Union are currently open.
Because of this, a student is to be appointed
by Williams to a committee studying
expansion of the Union.
This student is to collect diverse student
opinion to insure student input into plans for
the Union's expansion, Williams said.
Interviews for the student position on the
Union planning committee will be held in the
Union Monday through Wednesday 1 to 3
p.m.
