On Water Usage
By MARY BURCH
DTH Staff Writer
The Chapel Hill Merchant's
Association announced at a
Women's Residence Counsil
(WRC) meeting Tuesday night
that it will give a prize to the
women's dorm which uses the
least amount of water per
capita during the water
shortage.
The group formed a
committee to measure the
water consumption of the
dorms for the next few weeks.
Assistant to the Dean of
Women, Heather Ness, read a
memo from the Dean of
Student Affairs, CO. Cathey,
to the dorm representatives
concerning the seriousness of
the water shortage.
The main business of the
meeting was the discussion of
the by-laws to the WRC
constitution. Five by-laws were
discussed concerning the , form
of the WRC meetings the rules
for summer school WRC and
rules for the revision of the
institution. The group wiU

"In that no man can be a
stereotype of Charles Bernard,
the selection of a new Dean of
Admissions must bring a slight
change in policy. The YMCA
hopes that the University
would now see fit to
undertake, not a program of
reverse discrimination, but a
program to address the
discrimination (however
unintended) already inherent
in our admission process."
In the conclusion of the
letter the executive committee
requested that the Chancellor,
"Take whatever time necessary
to find a new Director of
Admissions who could support
existing programs and develop
new programs of his own to

The parental responses of

The Visitation Agreement
Committee, which is working
on the possibility of having
men and women visit in

that the agreement must be

Miss Idol requested that the
WRC representatives inform
the dorm girls of the

worthwhile campus activity.

University's current drug
policy as to its effectiveness
and fairness. The meeting will
try to convey as effectively as
possible the growing concerns
of students over the old policy.
Identification as well as
examination of all the old
issues of the policy is an
important objective of the
meeting for the purpose of
exploring possible alternatives
to the policy.
The current policy states:
"The illicit and improper
use of certain drugs (for
example amphetamines,
barbituates, opiates and
hallucinogenics) is
incompatible with personal
welfare and the pursuit of
academic excellence and will
not be tolerated by the
University."
Several of the problems
concerned with the current
policy deal with the procedures
used in executing the policy
and more specifically the role
of the residence advisor in such
execution.
An invitation to the meeting
is extended to all Student
Legislature Judicial Committee
members, other interested
legislatures, and students
concerned with problems
involved in the present policy.

Albright and Williford said that
invitations were accepted by all

Approximately 1000
students signed the petition on
coed visitation in three hours
Thursday afternoon.
Sam Austell, Chief campus
organizer for Southern
Students Organizing
Committee, which sponsored
the petition, called it "a
smashing success."
The petition read as
follows: "We the undersigned
request that each dormitory be
given the right to decide if it
wants to allow visitation of
women in men's rooms and
when it wants to allow that
visitation."
The SSOC petitions, were
displayed along with a
suggestion for social
complaints on three card tables
decorated with signs such as
"Are you ready to run your

Influenza Threat Probable,
U.S. Health Service Predicts
The United States Public

rather serious outbreak of
influenza throughout the
United States during this

A recent report claims that a
particular strain of Asian flu
has been identified in Atlanta,
Ga.
Vaccine for . the specific
strain causing the trouble this
year has not yet been
produced, but authorities feel
that the current vaccine used
last year may offer some
protection and recommend the
use of this vaccine until a new
vaccine is available.
The University's Student
Health Service has a supply of
the standard vaccine and urges
all students to take this

to take care of drug cases

Students will be able to use
the main floor of the Robert B.
House Undergraduate Library
early next week. The reserved
reading collection, 10,000
volumes, will be moved in on
Monday Oct. 7 and open for
use on Tuesday, Oct. 8.
According to Dr. James
Thompson, head of . the
undergrad library the delay in
opening the library was caused
by the company providing the
shelving.
- The top and ground floors
will open in about a month.
They will house the entire
undergraduate library and
study lounges. This tentative
date depends, once again, on
the shelving.
There will also be a small
reference library opened on
South Campus this spring. A
room in Chase cafeteria will be
furnished from Wilson Library
and equiped with $2,500

The size of the crowd

afternoon. About fifteen SSOC
members stayed at the tables
for the three hours, to start
discussions on social rules with
passing students.
Marty Winkelman, who

yesterday with Sam Austell

organize the session.

CO. Cathey has announced
that a committee has been
established to study the
possibility of mutual visitation.
This committee will contain
six representatives from the
faculty and administration and
six student representatives.
Sam Austell expressed a
"definite interest" in the
committee, and said the SSOC
petition is to serve as an

October. Early vaccination will
provide the most protection
during the winter.
Doses of the vaccine are at

will be given free of charge.

The award, which has been

fraternities.
The UNC chapter was first
in scholarship last year and was
one of two fraternities given
the R.B. House Award for the
best fraternity on the UNC
campus. These two awards
were cited at the Manhatten
convention as reasons for the
Director's Award.

Dr. Thompson, who
received his Ph.D. from UNC in
1961, is very concerned with
making sure undergraduates
can use their library as soon as
possible.
"I want to do everything in
my power to get this related to

Once House Library opens,
all stacks will be open to all

Instead of closed stacks,
there will be a guard at the

The Chapel Hill Board of
Aldermen Thursday morning
passed an ordinance making it
a misdemeanor to used water
for lawn-sprinkling,
car-washing, and operation of
water-consuming air
conditioners.
The action came after
discussion with University
officials on Wednesday
afternoon.
Sandy McClamroch, mayor
of Chapel Hill, said that the
Board advised the Chapel Hill
fire chief to declare the
community a critical fire
hazard. The Board also asked
that citizens refrain from
burning any trash or lighting
any fires.
Grey Culbreth, head of the

water of the University
Services Plant, said water
consumption Wednesday was
3.56 million gallons, the lowest
since the water shortage was
termed critical on Sept. 26.
t ; Culbreth, said there are. 100
million gallons of water left in
University Lake. The full
capacity of the lake is 600
million gallons.
There are 27 days' supply of
water at five millions gallons of
water a day. The period of 27
days can be extended,
however, due to a reduction of
daily water consumption.
He added that the pipeline
under construction will take

Water from a nearby creek is

in an effort to keep the grass alive
on the football playing field.

has been used on an athletic or
intramural field here for about 10
days now," said Walter Rabb,
acting athletic director.
The water being used in Kenan
Stadium is being trucked from
; Morgan . Creek near Fmley , Golf
Course. A small amount of water
was also obtained this week by
draining half of Kessing Pool, the
University's outdoor swimming
pool.
"All we are trying to do is keep
the root system of the grass alive in
Kenan Stadium," Rabb said.
A small amount of the. un filtered
water from the creek has also been
placed on the baseball infield and
sprinkled on the football practice
field to control dust.
