Offices in Graham Memorial TUESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1962 Complete UPI Wire Service Power Line Struggle Ending With First Route Seen Final By EARL MOORE The controversy over the route of a power line which is to feed the University's plant on Cameron Avenue is rapidly ending. The 100,000 volt loop transmis sion line, to be installed by Duke Power Company in the Morgan Creek area, has been a topic of discussion for Morgan Creek land owners, for nearly a year. At a recent meeting of a Duke Power attorney, the Board of Alder men, and a number of interested citizens, many alternate routes were suggested but refused by the Power Company. Not Feasible The possibilities of laying an underground line were discussed, but Gordon Battle, an attorney for Morgan Creek landowners, pre sented information released by an WORLD NEWS BRIEFS By United Press International Reds Intercept Belgian Plane ISTANBUL, Turkey A Belgian jet airliner with, 27 persons a board was intercepted by Soviet Mig jet fighters Monday along' the Soviet-Turkish border and forced to land at Yerevan, capital of Soviet Armenia, official sources reported. One American was re ported aboard. - There was no word on whether the Soviet Migs had opened fire on the French-built Caravelle which .was flying erratically with a de fective radio compass on an 850-mile flight from Tehran to Istan bul. Soviet planes opened fire on two U. S. Air Force planes in that area in 1953. In Moscow, Belgian Embassy officials said they were trying to win the release of the crewmen and passengers but had received no word from the Soviet foreign ministry and expected none before Tuesday morning. 2 7 Feared Dead In Shipwreck DOVER, England The 2,811-ton Yugoslav freighter Sabac col lided in the fog-shrouded English Channel last midnight with a Brit ish freighter twice its size and sank with the feared loss of 27 lives. As darkness fell Monday night six survivors of the Sabac, one of them seriously injured, were reported safe in England and France. The bodies of 16 were picked up from the icy channel-waters and 11 other men were listed as missing and feared dead. Argentina Presents Cuban Proposals WASHINGTON Argentina has presented to the United States three draft proposals for collective action against Cuba at the Jan. 22 inter-American foreign ministers conference, it was learned Monday. The proposals call for: Condemnation of Cuba's Communist ties. A plea by the Organization of American States (OAS) to Pre mier Fidel Castro's regime to renounce those ties and rejoin the inter-American community. . Consideration of possible sanctions if Cuba refuses to sever its Communist links. Assassination Try Denounced JAKARTA Angry Indonesians .Monday denounced an attempted assassination of President Sukarno as a Dutch plot to break the spirit of the people. The incident intensified the bitterness in the dispute with the Neth erlands over West Irian Dutch New Guinea which Sukarno has pledg ed to take by force if necessary. The government said three persons, including a child, were kill ed and 23 persons were injured when a hand grenade burst 150 yards behind Sukarno's car Sunday night as the president drove to an au ditorium for an anti-Dutch speech in the Celebes city of Makassar. Sukarno escaped unharmed. With NIH Grant New Clinical Research Unit Initiated At School Of Medicine For Studies And Care A new Clinical Research Unit was activated at the School of (Me dicine yesterday and the first of a number of scheduled patients will arrive today. The new unit was made possible by a grant, in late 1960, from the National Institutes of Health of the U. S. Public Health Service. The initial grant, which covers a seven-year period and involves a total budget of almost $900,000 for the first three- years, makes it pos sible to carry out meticulous re search studies while providing high quality care to patients with a wide variety of disorders. One of First The UNC School of iMcdicine was one of the first schools in the na tion to receive a grant for this type of research facility. The first such grants, in 1960, went to 18 leading medical institutions throughout the United States, and the Chapel Hill school was among this number. engineer of the State Utilities Com mission which indicated this solu tion would not be feasible. The only problems remaining in the matter are Duke Power's con demnation suits pressing for rights-of-way. These are expected to be "ironed" out by appraisers appoint ed by the Orange Superior Court. Duke Power's attorney, W. I. Ward, said his company's main objection to the alternate routes was that they ran through property more developed than the Morgan Creek route. Maintain Uniqueness Pearson Stewart, spokesman for the landowners, explained that his reason for suggesting alternate routes was to maintain the "unique character of Morgan Creek valley." He said it is a valley of rare beau ty and unusual vegetation. Di Svkara The Research Unit here is a 10 bed facility located on the fifth floor of the South Wing of North Carolina 'Memorial Hospital. This arrangement was made possible when the Department of Psychia try voluntarily agreed to relinquish the space for this purpose until a more permanent location for the Unit is available. The Unit is directed by Dr. Wal ter Hollander Jr., associate pro fessor of Medicine, and Dr, Rob ert Zcppa, assistant professor of surgery, both of whom are Markle Scholars in Medical Science. Under them is a special staff which includes nursing, dietary and laboratory personnel, but as the Unit is an integral part of N. C. Memorial Hospital, all personnel are also members of the regular hospital staff. Wide Variety Dr. Hollender discussed the manmer in which the new unit Attorney Ward said that power lines caused little if any property damage and rarely led to depre ciation in property value. Mayor Sandy McClamroch added that Duke Power did avoid homes wherever possible. When questioned about the pos sibility of underground construc tion Ward answered that the Mor gan Creek line would cost about $60,000 as planned and approxi mately ten times that if laid under ground. Underground Another point of contention at the meeting was the reason why the University did not supply the land for the route if it was going to receive the major benefits. This suggestion was also ruled out.

The Rosemary Street house shown above is occupied by over 10 UNC students and is similar to the many student living quarters on Rosemary Street and in the surround ing area on the other side of Franklin Street from the campus. installed at the top of the 825-foot WUNC-TV tower on Terrell's mountain, seven miles west of Chapel Hill and 1500 feet above average terrain level. The phar maceutical firm of Merck, Sharpe, and Dohme contributed equipment expenses and paid for the costs in curred in the changing of trans mitter sites. WDNC in Durham gave the station a microwave transmitter and receiver set which allows WUNC to send their signal from the Swain Hall offices on the campus to the Terrell mountain site without the use of telephone wires. WUNC programs will be receiv ed in these cities along the 100-mile periphery: Kannapolis, Concord, Lumberton, Kinston, Greenville, Elizabeth City, Roanoke Rapids, Emporia, Va., Martinsville, Va., and other North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia cities. Perfect Conditions When conditions are perfect, the non - commercial educational sta tion will be picked up in cities out side the 100-mile radius, such as Charlotte, Statesville, New Bern, Washington, Roanoke and Lynch burg, Va.

"Theatre is the most exciting thing I've ever worked in," Sandy .wvs "I want to teach it to com municate some of the excitement I've found in it." He has appeared i several Caro lina Plavmakers productions, in cluding "The Great Diamond Rob- herv" "Wishing for the war to Cease" and "The Curious Savage." Study Mere Group May Set Standards For To wn Housing A University faculty committee, with the cooperation of the Chapel Hill Board of Realtors, is initiating a study of off-campus housing in the Chapel Hill area in order to in sure adequate housing standards for Carolina students who live off campus. Dean of Student Affairs Charles Henderson stated that a facutly committee was appointed last Feb ruary to investigate the problems of off -campus housing. He added that although the school has no standards for off campus dwellings, the University health and safety of the 2,125 stu dents who live in town. Standards established will be de rived partly from studies conducted by the American College Health Association. However, these stand ards may be altered to comply with conditions that are peculiar to Chapel Hill. Health Association Standards Maximum recommendations by the American College Health As sociation include adequate electri cal outlets, a bed with a firm and even mattress, a dresser with four drawers, at least ten square feet of closet space, non-combustible waste hasket an individual towel rack. Other important recommenda tions of basic requirements are en trance and exit ways which are safe from fire hazards, accom modations conducive to conditions of study and adequate toilet fa cilities. According to those national stand ards for non-institutionally-owned student housing the minimum width of a room is seven feet, with at least 70 square feet of floor space for each individual. Enrollment Rise Since World War II the Univer sity has experienced an unprece dented rise in student enrollment. The University hag made efforts to provide adequate housing for the influx of students, but many have been obliged to sek housing in buildings other than those main tained by the University. Dean Henderson said much of this prob lem will be eliminated by the com pletion of the three men's dormi tories. 8 Campus Groups To Seek Support From Chest Fund Representatives from 8 different organizations will appear before a meeting of the Campus Che.?t Ad visory Board tonight for the pur pose of gaining financial support for their activities from the Cam pus Chest. Seeking to gain support will be: The National Scholarship Service and Fund for Negro Students, the World University Service, the American Friends Service, the In ternational Students Board, the Heart Association of Buncombe County, the Cross Roads Africa Organization, and the Poltical Science Department (in order to establish an internship at the U.N.) along with Memorial Hospital (for research on Mental Health). He is the author of "Dark Morn ing," produced by the Playmak ers here last summer, and he di rected the recent Student Theatre Workshop production of "Bury the Dead." This summer Sandy plans to work in one of the state's out door dramas. Steele, McMulIcn Among the other students in "Renegade" are UNC soccer play er Larry Steele and former half back Larry McMulIcn.
