J0 f,l Illinium. J 1 BEACH WEATHER Warm and humid with a chance of thunder showers. Highs 80-87, lows 70-76. Winds 10-20 mph from south to southwest. Volume 76 CHAPEL HILL, N. C. THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1969 Number 2 George Vlasits Surrenders George Vlasits turned himself in to U. S. Marshals at New Bern, N. C. last Wednesday afternoon, June 11. He had been sought for two weeks following the denial, in the Fourth Circuit Court, of his appeal of a draft conviction. A former SSOC organizer in Chapel Hili, Vlasits, 26, was sentenced last fall to five years in a federal prison by the U. S. District Court in Raleigh for refusing induction into the armed forces. Vlasits' appeal was turned down because he failed to file his legal briefs within the maximum time limit set by the court. He apparently had a financial misunderstanding with his attorney, Wren Drum of Winston-Salem. Four UNC professors and another Chapel Hill resident had posted the $5000 bond for Vlasits. He reportedly turned himself in only 15 minutes before the bond would have been forfeited. 11 n 1 1 i, GEORGE VLASITS in I Try Summer-Date Wanna meet a date? Try Summer-Date. With a great number of new faces on campus this summer, it is a little more difficult for people to get together. Summer-Date is designed to get people out of their rooms and into the atmosphere for which Chapel Hill and UNC are famous. Summer-Date will solve the problems of introducing you to those attractive members of the opposite sex and end sitting in front of the tube because you don't have a date for those weekday parties. Summer-Date works along the same line as those services which are offered by computer companies, but there are no computers! It is our belief that computers make mistakes which we hope to eliminate by visual contact. For only a dollar ($1) you are guaranteed five names which most match your ideal date from those who enroll in MX f 4 L KIPPLE: It's all over the place. It's an institution. To find out exactly what it is, see Tom Schnabel's picture page on page eight. He knows. You will, too. Assembly Votes To Raise Tuition By LAURA WHITE NEWS EDITOR A $150 increase in tuition for out-of-state undergraduates at UNC will become effective July 1, 1969, pending approval by the Board of Trustees at each branch, according to the State Budget Division of the Department of Administration.

J ijZH.t't Tuition for the Asheville-Biltmore or the Wilmington branches of the University will not be increased, Harrington said, because these two branches are new and have not yet adjusted their tuition fees to the consolidated university level. In-state tuition for undergraduate students in the Consolidated University had been $175 for the 1968-1969 regular session. Out-of-state tuition for the same period had been $700, a differential of $525 over in-state tuition. As of July 1, 1970, in-state (Continued on page 3) Food Workers, Saga Clear Up 'Problems' Cafeteria workers have cleared up ''many misunderstandings" with the Saga Food Service as a result of a Monday night meeting with Saga Manager Troy O'Brien, Mrs. Mary Smith, food worker spokesman, said Tuesday. The workers had met with O'Brien to discuss dissatisfactions with their schedules, the laying-off of some workers, and the hiring of student help instead of non-academic workers. In a press conference Tuesday Mrs. Smith reported that O'Brien has promised the workers a new work schedule to add more hours of work. Mrs. Smith said Mr. O'Brien admitted the hiring of students "was a mistake, and he promised to limit students to work only at peak hours and only 3 hours daily." Because some workers are not needed for the summer and because of the Saga changes, efforts are being made to relocate these workers through By MARY BURCH Managing Editor "I only want to be left alone to study and lead a normal life, not become a soldier or be forced to gjve out information about the Soviet Union." Cvetan Todorov, a political refugee from the Soviet Union who is studying at UNC this summer, has been subjected to intense questioning by U. S. Army Intelligence and the C. I. A. because of his refusal to serve in the U. S. Army or supply information about his duties in the Russian Army. "I am a pacifist," Todorov said. "I am against violence and against war. I was drafted into the Bulgarian and Russian armies in 1959 in the intelligence division. When I refused to kill, I was sent to political prisons and concentration camps. "After 20 months I escaped into Italy and then arranged to come to the United States, believing I had come to a free country. I was not informed that I was subject to serve in the American Army." (Under the draft law, immigrants are subject to the draft after they have resided here for six months.) "I am a victim of the University Personnel Office. "All full-time workers who had been doing satisfactory work at the time they were laid off will have jobs available in the fall if they want them," O'Brien told the workers. Saga and the workers gained a good understanding from the meeting, according to Mrs. Smith. Mrs. Smith praised the quality of food used by the Saga Service and the improvements made on the cleanliness of the cafeterias. The Summer Tar Heel will be distributed each Thursday afternoon be tween 3 and 5 p.m. at all men's and women's resi dence halls, all fraternities and sororities open, Lenoir Hall, the Student Union, Pine Room, Under graduate Library (at the front door), the Circus Room and the YMCA. 1 1 I ence ons tudent Communism myself, but I feel that the U. S. has no political or moral right to intervene in the civil war among the Vietnamese people," the 27-year old student added. "This is the most inhuman war in the history of our civilization." Todorov stated that he has been under "extreme pressure" during his two weeks in summer school. "They (Army Intelligence) have questioned me four times in the last week," he said. "In addition to this persistent interrogation, they question my employer, friends, and people in the community. I am unable to study." Todorov's roommate and suitemates said they too have (Continued on page 3) CVETAN TODOROV HEW Grants $125,000 To UNC The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare has awarded this week grants totaling nearly $125,000 to the University of North Carolina.
