I I ' 1 Book Sold SAGA aent st By DAVE JACOBS DTH Staff Writer "On Nov. 3, 1969, it was called to my attention by the administration that a student had purchased a piece of pornographic literature in the Student Stores," said General Manager Thomas A. Shetley Wednesday. Upon examination of the "adults only comic book" Shetley agreed that it was pornographic and was out of place in a college store. Shetley commented that he had no idea how the comic book had gotten on the shelves of the student bookstore. "Anyone who would sell such literature should be run out of town," Shetley commented. "The publication was never purchased for resale by any of the clerks or buyers involved with Student Stores," he said. The comic was unknowingly run up on the cash register by a 7U) U U By CAM WEST DTH Staff Writer The Chancellor's Advisory Committee on Student Stores recommended Thursday that faculty members receive a 10 per cent discount from Student Stores on all books purchased for personal use. The committee made the recommendation unanimously dler Dean C. O. Cathey, a committee made the recommendation unanimously after Dean C. O. Cathey, a ( " nmittee member, moved t the group should go on t ord favoring a discount. The trustee merchandising policy for the Consolidated University prohibits discounts. Stores Manager Tom Shetley said in spite of the rule, Student Stores had granted faculty a 10 per cent discount for many years until the state auditor informed' the University administration last year that the practice was in violation of trustee merchandising rules. According to committee member Dr. Patrick J. By GREG LLOYD DTH Staff Writer Scott College Emphasis Week continued Wednesday night as Dean of Men James Cansler spoke to students about living at Carolina. Dean Cansler said a decision was forthcoming to determine if all students should live in dorms through their sophomore year and junior transfer students for one year. "I favor this because it would help create a sound financial basis so that renovations can be done to make dorms more attractive," Cansler continued. He also said if students knew that they had to live in the dorms for two years, they would participate more actively in dorm projects. The possibility of getting more girls to live on South Campus was also explored by Cansler. "Morrison will probably be converted into a coed dorm next year with the addition of four " floors of girls," he remarked, in conjunction with Project Hinton in James Dormitory and a projected coed arrangement in Ehringhaus. Cansler also stated junior women may be allowed to live off campus next year. When asked about visitation policies, Cansler replied, "I doubt if there will be any chnres before next year, however, visitation policy should be evaluated each year and changes made accordingly." ler clerk and had apparently been placed on the shelves by a student, according to Shetley. "Although I have no reason to doubt the integrity of. the person purchasing said literature and filing complaint, I do believe that the single, comic book in question was planted in the Student Stores by a person or persons whose motivation I cannot fathom,' explained Shetley. Shetley added that with the "revolution in traditional values" taking place today, he was not going to put himself in the position of a" censor. ; Business manager of the Student Stores, Arthur Branch, indicated that the complaint had originated through the Office of Student Affairs. He said he, Dean CO. Cathey from the Office of Student Affairs and' Shetley carefully examined the shelves of the bookstore for examples of pornography. No additional copies were found. hase Rights Recommended For Gallagher, many teachers are now buying books and ordering texts from the Intimate Bookshop which he said grants a discount to faculty members on books purchased for personal use. He added that many faculty members feel the "no discount" policy in trustee regulations is an infringement on their rights. Shetley said the Intimate grants a 10 per cent discount and that all state universities outside the Consolidated University system offer faculty discounts. The committee's recommendation will be forwarded to Chancellor J. Carlyle Sitterson who will have to appeal through President Friday's office to the Board of Trustees for approval. Shetley, although favoring the discount recommendation, sounded a note of pessimism.

The program, held in the social room of Teague Dorm, began with a documentary film entitled "A Day in Vietnam."

"But the Consolidated- office wasn't favorable to the request." In other action, the committee began consideration on alternative arrangements to pay for the new Book Exchange building. Payments on the $1.6 million structure are now scheduled to be completed by 1980 at . an interest rate of five per cent. Student member Bob Manekin stated that extending payments over an 18-20 year period would free more money for -scholarships and fellowships. Committee member J. A. Branch, an administration representative, said that by extending payments over , a longer period, the committee would be risking higher interest rates. At " the request of several committee members, Branch said he would furnish at the next meeting on Nov. 19 a payments schedule based on interests and that stopping Communism would serve that purpose. Following King's argument, George Vlasits of the Chapel Hill Revolutionary Movement spoke on whose interests are being served by the war. Vlasits maintained that the war profits only a small power elite which controls the United States. He said that the upper classes pay a lesser percentage of taxes, according to their income, and that their sons will never" go to fight in Vietnam. Buck Goldstein of the Moratorium Committee added that the U.S. has no reason to stay, in Vietnam and that we and on this campus for his Vietnam polices." Besides Reed, a number of state legislators may attend the meeting, he said. Several have already expressed their support for the rally. Mecklenburg Senator Herman A. Moore wrote the committee: "I am more than delighted that this event will be held on Veterans Day and wholeheartedly support your committee's actions." . Is a large crowd expected? "I don't know what sort of crowd to expect We are going to publicize the thing as much as we can, and of course we'll hope for the best. I'm pretty sure we'll have TV coverage, if 16, 18 and 20 years at interest rates of five, six and seven per cent. On the motion of Manekin, the committee voted that Shetley provide a complete financial report to each committee member before the next meeting.

The man stood up (prosecution) and said the case of Graham and Dworsky had come up. The case is nol pros, he said, and the judge nodded," Graham explained. "We got up and left." Graham and Dworsky were arrested in a 3: 30 a.m. raid on Grab the manager reprimanded the other worker for going with him (Clark) without his permission. Clark said, "I then spoke up for the other worker, saying that I couldn't have unloaded the food without his help. "The manager then turned on me and accused me of giving orders to other workers. I told him that I hadn't but he kept saying it. Finally I said, 'You've got it in for me to begin with.'He then fired me," said Clark. Ted Young, director of Saga, refused to comment about Clark's firing. However, a representative from Saga's main office in San Francisco, Lou McClellan, who arrived in Chapel Hill yesterday, said, "It would be improper for the management to divulge information about management-worker affairs." Young concurred with McClellan on this point, but he did say that Miss Council had been fired because "she refused to do the job assigned to her." Miss Council said Young had reassigned her to a job busing tables in Lenoir Hall. She said, "I told Mr. Young that he would have to getvne some help since busing tables is a man's job.

The Graduate Studies Committee of the History Department, which advises the department chairman on department issues, is now composed of seven faculty members. Three representitives of the history society meet with committee members but that it might be connected with the search procedures of the Carrboro police in the raid on his apartment. Both Graham and Dworsky said Thursday they are now thinking of what action, if any, the University will take. Dean of. Men James O. Cansler alledgedly informed them on Oct. 2 they would be tried for possession regardless of civil court findings.
