Legislature To Consider Axed Budget By John Jamison The State Legislature next week will consider the Consolidated University's budget request, pre sumably axed in certain areas by the Advisory Budget Commission. The original budget request, submitted by the University in September, totaled over 18 million dollars for physical improvements at the three institutions. However, I this request was subject to review and possibly revision by the Ad visory Budget Commission before being presented officially to the Legislature . Because of the current public attention given to fire hazard conditions in fraternity and so rority houses on the campus, a question has arisen concerning similar conditions in University owned buildings. Old West, Old East and Steele dormitories, speci fically, have been termed hazard ous. The Legislature will be asked to appropriate funds for providing lire escapes ior inese Duuaings. Most other University buildings are already in compliance with the statute, Business Manager Claude Teague said yesterday. An auditorium-armory, capable of seating the entire student body, and a new student union building were among the original budget items requested for the Univer- siyt at Chapel Hill. These two structures would cost $2,700,000. However, it is not known whether the Advisory Budget Commission saw fit to leave these items in its version of the budget request. This version will not be known until it reaches the floor bf the Legislature, probably next Tues day night. Its secrecy is carefully guarded. The budget printer is bonded to prevent his revealing the contents to anyone.
