"I feel sorry people who feel Young said. for those this way," "Instead of having (a reporter) play cloak and dagger, I will meet with those workers (and a member of the Tar Heel staff)." In the past two days Young has met with the workers of Chase, Lenoir and Spencer dormitory kicking off what Young, characterized as a drive to get to know the workers better. In the meetings Young stressed to the workers that Saga management wants workers to come them (the management) with their problems. In response to a rumor that - Union Pa Might Be Paved The parking lot on Emerson Field may be paved during the Thanksgiving vacation, according to Alan Waters, University engineer. Waters explained that the lot, classified for administration and faculty parking, has not been maintained sufficiently during the past few weeks because "the ground crews have been extremely busy." The lot is presently filled with numerous pot-holes and gullies. Waters said paving the lot is not official yet because funds have not been appropriated for the work. They would come from state-appropriated funds and traffic fine receipts, he noted. No buildings are planned to be built on the parking lot site, Waters added. "The Emerson Field lot will definitely be made into a paved parking area if we can get the funds." By CAM WEST DTH Staff Writer ? Student 3ody President Alan Albright announced Wednesday he will present the University Judicial Reform Committee's recommendations for trying disruption cases to the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees Sunday. Albright received the invitation to appear before the Executive Committee from Consolidated University President William Friday, who contacted Albright after consultation with Chancellor Albright i Friday's move reportedly drew criticism from a member of the Executive Committee. "I think the Executive Committee ought to be the one to say when it will hear students, instead of the Chancellor or someone else," comment on the matter. "I don't know anything about this incident," said Waters. "This is the first I've heard of it. I know nothing of the procedure involved in towing away an illegally parked car; so I have no comment." The DTH tried unsuccessfully to contact State Attorney General Morgan for an official statement on the legality of the incident. has been circulating among some of the workers that Saga might close down operations should workers unionize, Young said, "It would have to Relief Fund Not Missing The reference in this last Sunday's issue of the DTH to an "unaccounted for" sum of money left over from last year's "strike relief fund" was incorrect. The $2,800 is deposited in Farmers and Mechanics Bank of Durham, according to Mrs. Elizabeth Brooks, chairman of the non-academic workers union. ' Mrs. Brooks said Tuesday $1,000 has already been spent for legal fees accumulated during the spring strike. Mrs. Nannie Smith, a food service worker laid off last summer by Saga also received some money to make rental payments on her house, according to Mrs. Brooks. The DTH regrets the error. ir Tom White, a member of the committee, reportedly said Wednesday. He added he believed rules should be established to regulate student appearances before the trustees. White, chairman of the powerful state Advisory Budget Commission and Gov. Bob Scott's legislative liaison, also sent a letter to President Friday and Governor Scott about the meeting. Scott is trustee chairman. The Reform Committee's report seeks to give students more power in inquiry and hearings boards than the 'Forum- Doesn 9t Replace Older Ones: 9 Sitterson The Consultative Forum created by the administration will not replace any presently existing , legislative bodies or other responsibilities, according to Chancellor J. Carlyle Sitterson. His "statement clarified a question which arose Monday when a prepared release was handed out announcing the committee's formation. "I don't think we ought to presuppose on the future of this committee;" the Chancellor said, "but its objective is not to replace any other organization."

He added, "One thing that must be considered though is that should a union get started, a lot of workers would be out of jobs because there are certain minimum education standards specified by job classification."

' Although draft evasion provides motivation for many activities, joining the Peace Corps isn't one of those activities or so the corps recruiters working on campus this week agree. "It would be foolish to join the Peace Corps just to escape a stint in the Army even in Vietnam," said area representative John Collis. "You would be getting into more than you'd be getting out of." He and four other representatives, all of whom have served two-year terms in the corps, concluded that the vast majority of the volunteers enter the program because they want an opportunity to serve human beings not to thwart Uncle Sam. But they added that the war atmosphere does have an effect D trustee recommendations. In addition, the Reform Committee advises creation of a Communications Board on the Chapel Hill campus to deal "preventively with potential causes of disruption." Discussing his Sunday presentation, Albright said he hopes the final trustee policy for investigating and trying disruptions will embody the Reform Committee's recommendations. "I am not proposing that the Reform Committee's recommendations apply to the entire Consolidated University," Albright Student Body President Alan Albright, a supporter of the forum, said, however, he foresaw the possibility of the forum becoming a body with legislative powers to replace some existing bodies. The Consultative Forum was originally introduced to UNC students in February by Joel Fleishman, vice provost of Urban Studies at Yale University. The idea was discussed by a number of school officials, including Albright, Sitterson, Fred Cleaveland, chairman of the faculty, and John Graham, V. -J L J i 1l Join P eace Evade T on Peace Corps recruitment in a more positive way. Amidst the patriotic exhortations to "serve one's country," a number of people decide to do just that but in the constructive manner which the Peace Corps offers, said Collis. Manning a Peace Corps information table outside the Student Union are Collis, who has a permanent office at 214 Pittsboro Street; Anne Queen, who serves as acting liaison on campus and has an office in the Y-bui!ding; and three guest recruiters. These are Charlotte Hutchinson, who taught in Thailand; Clem Burroughs, an agricultural worker in India; and Dan Tibbs, an agricultural worker in Nigeria. The representatives pointed out the tremendous effect that Peace Corps work often has on the personality of the volunteer. Many persons go Into the corps with a degree in business but come out starching for a profession emphasized. "I just think the final trustee policy should be flexible enough to cover the unique situations in Chapel Hill. Certainly the problems here are different than ones at, say, UNC-Wilmington." he added. Albright said he would emphasize that the Reform Committee report is a product of a joint student-faculty-administrative effort. "If solutions are going to come satisfactorily to University problems, then they must involve decision-making from all parts of the University community," he said. chairman of the Faculty Committee on University Government. Sitterson said Wednesday he created the special forum as "an instrument for exchange of communication through the University body," and to include representatives from the student body, the faculty, the administration and non-academic employees, the Board of Trustees and the alumni.

"So I began working as a recruiter, and later on I hope to continue my studies in social work and anthropol ogy." In addition to talking with students interested in Peace Corps work, the recruiters are administering a 30-minute language aptitude test, distributing application forms and speaking to various groups in the Chapel Hill area.
