FOIH Parking 0D&B6S JL uaings By Lana Starnes Copy Editor Twelve families living ir University -owned housing uniti in Victory Village received eviction notices Saturday informing them they must move by June 7 to make room for a new parking lot.

He said two parking lots in T0::LTb:ZX necessitating more parking sPa- t ... . . . . , The families involved voiced concern about relocation, Although the notices stated that the families will have priority until April 30 to relocation in another unit, there is no assurance that housing costs will remain the same.

(Photo by John Gellman) Mrs. Carroll Carrozza, wife of a UNC graduate student, said none of the families know what to do or whom to contact. "If the University tells us to move, there's nothing else we can do. It seems as though we're at the mercy of everybody," she said. Mrs. Carrozza said the lease states that in this situation the . University will attempt to relocate families involved but does not guarantee that rental - rates will be the same. Mrs. Sterling Pruett said her main complaint was the eviction date. Her husband will finish graduate school this summer. The Pruetts and their two children have lived in Victory Village for three and a half years. Mrs. Jeanne Connor, wife of a UNC graduate student and mother of three children, was upset because the notice stated that three-bedroom units will not be available. She said it was imperative that her family have such a unit. "Although these look worse -than other housing units they have certain advantages. We have a first floor living area, front and back doors and a backyard. It gives us certain mobility that the children, need," Mrs. Connor said. She added she hoped the University planned to tear down the units right away, complaining that when units were abandoned to make room for the Red Brick Research ; Building they were left standing . for over a year before being torn down. Mrs. Kemi Aseyemi, wife of a Nigerian student, said she hoped they could find a place as cheap. Her husband is on an Afro-American scholarship and they have a new baby and simply can't afford anything, else, she said. Schoeubirun Criticizes Nixon Vietnam By Bob Chapman Staff writer f World news commentator David Schoenbrun sharply criticized President Nixon's foreign policy and urged the immediate U.S. withdrawal from Vietnam in the keynote address for International Week. Schoenbrun told the audience of nearly 500 that although he is "not a pacifist," he opposes American involvement on moral and intellectual basis. The award-winning CBS news correspondent spoke in Hill Hall. .Friday night on "Nixon's New Foreign Policy." Presently a senior lecturer at Columbia University, Schoenbrun has worked in every news media and is the author of "Vietnam: How We Go In, How We Can Get Out." n Aui 1 1 1 lit w oiicu y c in -. According to the residents, the notices came as a surprise not only to them but to the physical plant as well. Three weeks ago the apartments were painted and the students were given grass seeds to sow their lawns. James E. Wadsworth, director of the University housing, said the students should come and see him as soon as possible. He promised the University would do its best to relocate them. Wadsworth also cited a similiar letter that was sent to 80 people in 1967. All 80 were relocated. Each family will be given a chance to have another place although rates may not be the same, Eagles said. Contraception Seminar Set Where can contracep tives be obtained in Chapel Hill? To what 5 degree are contraceptives effective? What are the alternatives for women to having babies? These and many more questions will be discussed Monday at 7 p.m. in the basement of Granville South in a seminar sponsored by ECOS for Female Liberation. A movie on population control, "Beyond Conception," is the first part of the program. Next the seminar will divide into three discussion groups. Each group will be led in discussion by a medical doctor, a Female Liberation member and an ecology student. Denouncing such labels as "hawk" and "dove," Schoenbrun said he believes in seeking the good of humanity over nationalism. He said that after being a war correspondent of 14 wars, he considers a man more courageous if he refuses to fight an unjust war. Schoenbrun said he fought in Woiid War IL a war he considered just because Hitler was an aggressor and the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. "But your government has no kind of rational basis for going to war," he said. He said Nixon was one of the first to urge American involvement in Vietnam as early as 1954 when speakmto newsmen, bi President Eisenhower discuraged the action. He noted that Nixon made his comments at the time On 7' U )TA7" Til fOiff jJ VV iIiivLLL C3 Som IT? Some of the Victory Village cannot find lVJlMv 1 12 recently evicted families in may have to separate if they equally accomodations. The students involved are concerned because other housing is more expensive and most can't afford it. Red Brick apartments were mentioned in particular as one area that the students could not afford. David Landry, a UNC graduate student, said many of the families, especially those with children, could not afford to pay higher monthly rents and it was possible that many would have to separate. The student residents pointed out that there are eight housing units now being used for storage that could be used by students. The units are identical to the ones the students are now living in. ittersoii Lands 70 Carolina By Mike Parnell Staff Writer University Chancellor J. Carlyle Sitterson released a statement last week congratulating students and faculty for the 1970 Carolina Symposium and expressing hope students will participate in the Environmental Teach-in this month. Sitterson said, in selecting the theme "Man and Environment," students and faculty "shoved both imagination and awareness of one of society's greatest needs, I-Week Features Afro Dinner Today An African dinner and an address by a UNC art history professor top today's International Teek schedule. The African dinner, prepared by African students here, will be served at 6 p. m. at the Wesley Foundation.

Today's activities will begin of the French defeat at Dien Bien Phu, where Schoenbrun was the only American there as a CBC correspondent. Schoenbrun said the "so-called nrvv plan" of Nixon is not new at all. Ke denounced former President Harry Truman's policy of total intervention and urged a new internationalism. "America is a mighty nation," said Schoenbrun, "but there is one thing that America cannot do, and that is everything." Noting that historically there is no North Vietnam and South Vietnam but instead one country, the former commentator said South Vietnam is an invention of the U.S. State Department. According to the Geneva accord of 1954 he said, the demilitarized zone (DMZ) was ' Tf t s 71 rrn Villa MS C priced housing the preservation of an environment for the future of man." The 1970 Carolina Symposium was held March 15-19 to discuss environmental problems man will face in the future and ways to conquer them. "The large and enthusiastic attendance" for the "excellent programs and speakers" was an indication of the success of the symposium, said Sitterson. Featured speakers during the symposium were Sen. Edmund . Muskie (D.-Me.), at 2:30 p.m. with a cricket match at Fetzer Field. Volleyball is scheduled for 3 pjn. in Woolen Gym. Monday's highlight will be a Chinese film, "The East is Red," to be shown at 8 p.m. in Memorial Hall.

Tickets for all activities are available at the Student Union 9 to have been a temporary demarcation zone until 1956 when elections were to have been held in the country. There was no such election, Schoenbrun said, because the other side, meaning Ho Chi Minn, should have won. He termed the situation a "Cook County syndrome in world affairs." During the 1968 election, Schoenbrun said, Nixon had a secret plan for getting out of Vietnam: Vietnamization. The lecturer said there is nothing new about hiring mercenaries to fight a war and added that it is not workable even if it were desirable. Nixon also said that he would withdraw ground troops, the speaker said. Schoenbrun's theory how to leave is "on ships'" on Symposium o -Lis If Tf es i Mrs. Jeanne Connor, wife of a UNO graduate student, said there was no chance that her family would split. She said she was sun- her husband would pull out of school rather than have them separated. Her husband is presently on a grant at the University. Mrs. Carroll Carrozza, w ife of a UNC graduate student and mother of two children, said if other housing could not be found the possibility exists that she and her children may have to move back to Pennsylvania. The families involved wid in a letter addressed to the Daily Tar Heel that "this action by the University indicates a singular lack of interest in an active University role in the provision of low rent housing for married students."
