Volume 74, Number 84 Students Report I Brief UFO Visit 1 By DON CAMPBELL DTH Staff Writer A UFO visited Chapel Hill Tuesday night. But it didn't stay long. Only about three minutes. Joe Love of 434 Morrison reported seeing what he described as an "orange spehrical-shaped object with a ring of lights around it" at 11:05 p.m. Love said he and his roommate, Gary Rhodes, were looking out their room window towards Chase Diing Hall when they spotted the "object." "We watched it for about 2 or 3 minutes," Love said. "It moved slowly at first, then picked up speed and faded out of sight." Tommy Pistolis of 431 Morrison said he was tak ing a shower when he heard about it. "I grabbed my binoculars and ran out where the other boys were looking at it," Pistolis said. i "It was pretty far away," he said. "One time it stopped and just hung there. Then it got brighter and I ran back in and got some stronger binoculars. When I got. back it was fading straight away, across Craige." Pistolis concurred with Love in describing the ob ject. He also said people on the fifth floor of "Mo" re ported seeing the "object." Chapel Hill Police said they had heard nothing abuuttheUFO. A Raleigh-Durham Airport Traffic Control Officer said he had heard nothing about the UFO, either. "I really saw it," Pistolis said. Asked how big it was, Pistolis said, "Oh, about the size of a pea." U. Square Seeks Expansion Approval By ROCHELLE JONES Special To The DTH Approval for a $10 million addition to the University Square complex is expected from the Chapel Hill town council in the next 90 days ac cording to the builder's local agents. University Square, at 123 W. Franklin St., will include a shopping plaza, recreation center and office building, in addition to Granville Towers, when finished. The target date for completion is set for mid 1968. The agents, R. M. Gladstone and Cy Jennings, said the shopping plaza will be "as totally different from anything else in the Chapel Hill area as the horse and buggy is from the car." The plaza will sur round a central mall and will include a three-story depart ment store and possibly a res taurant. . There will be a swimming pool for Granville Towers res idents in the recreation center which will also house a thea ter. The blueprints haven't been completed but the cen ter will be "very modern with the theater either underground or on the second floor over the swimming pool." Not yet on the drawing board-but also under consid erationis another privately owned and operated residence hall. The developers f e e 1 Granville Towers is the an swer to the University's hous ing shortage as the enrollment continues to rise The .draw back to another dorm is the already limited parking space at the development. An office building now un der construction is slated for completion by May 1. All buildings will combine "the modern with the charm of Chapel Hill." Gladestone and Jennings feel Chapel Hill is outdated architecturally. If the town is going to make progress as its population and per capita income grow, more and more University Square type developments are going to be needed. Residence Colleges Officially Named The names of the Residen-' tial Colleges, and the houses in two of them, long a sub ject of interest and often heat-' ed words, have been officially approved after almost a year of waiting. Most of them aren't new Morrison, Davie, Ehringhous, Craige and Hinton James Residential Colleges. The upper quad is now King Residential College, and the lower quad will be filled with coeds and won't have residen tial college status for the time being. The house names in Morri son are as submitted, Arm strong, Brahnson, Cannon, Daniels, Edwards, Fetzer, Griffith, Harris and Iredell. In Hinton 'James, the houses will be Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, The ta and Iota, a la fraternity system. A Morrison dedication cere mony set for last spring was postponed because t&e names were not official. The dedica tion is now set for the week end of Feb. 18 and 19. 4 CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, JANUARY 12, 3 Jy fir Tempers Flare As Quiet Hours Established Residence college quiet hours go into effect Sat urday and will be enforc ed throughout the exam pe riod, the Men's Residence Council announced yester day.

Chairman Wilbur D. Mills, D-Ark., said at the moment the House Ways and Means Committee has not changed its plan to give first priority to proposals for Social Secur ity benefit increases. Majority leader Carl Albert, D-Okla., said he expects the first piece of major legisla tion actually to reach the House floor will be a catch all appropriation bill to cov er government expenditures until July 1. Swollen mainly by war costs, the bill has been projected at $10 billion up. From their comments and others, it was apparent Con gress will want to know more about several factors be fore deciding whether to tap individual and corporate in comes for an estimated $4.5 billion more in the first year of a tax increase. The ques tions to be examined are: 1. Just how much Johnson proposes to spend on various domestic programs and whe ther the lawmakers are in a mood to hold the line or cut back on these. Johnson in his State of the Union message Tuesday gave only an over all total $135 million spend ing in the year beginning July 1. Republicans said the fig ure was unrealistic, consider ing what he proposed. 2. What course the U. S. economy takes during the next few months specifically, whether there are any signs of a downturn that might be critically aggravated by a big tax increase. 3. Whether the Federal Re to I serve Board displays willing ness, in consideration of the anti - inflationary effect of a tax raise, to move in the di rection of cheaper and more abundant money for borrow ing. AP0 Book Swap Is January 31 Alpha Phi Omega's 15th an nual Used Book Exchange will be in Gerrard Hall Tuesday, Janl 31 through Saturday, February 4. The APO's will collect books during exams in the basement of Smith dorm. Students may also bring their used books to Gerrard during the sale. Students who bring books to the sale should fill out' a card stating the condition of the book and its sale price. After the book has been sold, a 10 per cent service charge is de ducted and the student col lects the rest of the money. Unsold books are returned without charge to the student after the sale. No new books are handled by the Exchange. Tom Hildebrandt, APO pres ident, said that "students can save and make a lot of money here." "This service is free to the students," Hildebrandt said. "Students can reap maximum benefits here, and we hope they take advantage of it. We never make any money on the Book Ex; it's just a service to the students." The APO's usually handle about $2,000 worth of books. "This indicates," Hildebran dt said, "that many students have made money on books that ordinarily never would have been used again." it 1 7 M i e i ii 1967 Tr Meek Smeak Pasi By BILL HASS . DTH Asst. Sports Editor North Carolina, looking like anything but the nation's third or fifth ranked team, survived its third scare in a row and eked out a 79-78 win over N. C. State last night.

There were some shoves before everyone turned and started to walk off the court. Then a yellow-shirted State fan, apparently so mad he couldn't see, threw a punch and everything started. Players jumped on the nearest different-colored jersey they could find and spectators jumped right in with them. Police, . coaches and sane fans and players began pulling people apart. Five policemen subdued the man in the yellow shirt, finally leading him off the court. Cooler tempers then prevailed. . All this on regional television, yet.

Founded February 23, 1893 79 - As for the game itself, Caro lina had its worst effort of the season. The Tar Heels passed badly, blew shots, made num erous turnovers and played mediocre defense. Behind by 56-48 with 12:16 left in the game, they pulled themselves together and went ahead by five points, enough to win the ball game. But it wasn't easy. Coach Dean Smith praised the floor game of Dick Grubar and Gerald Tuttle, who held UNC together when the Tar Heels were on the verge of falling apart. "I want to give State credit for their shooting and floor game," he said. "I give us credit for a great comeback.
