" 'iwr ""nir 'if THE DAILY TAR HEEL Page Two October 9, 1970 On Significance of Students treat Diffe r Mon S by Evans Witt Stajf Writer (Editor's Sole: Tliis article is the last in a scries discussing the Montreal Conference last weekend which brought together students, faculty members and administration officials.) Students who attended the Montreal Conference held Last weekend praised the general idea of the meeting but differed widely on its significance. The conference, co-sponsored by the Office of the Dean of Student Affairs and the Student Government, brought together 72 students, faculty members ttaeber Ctiar ftnidemlt Stores and University administrators for two and a half days in Montreal, N.C. The purpose of the conference was to examine the role of the university in the 70s and to improve communication among the diverse elements of the campus. All the students interviewed agreed that the conference was a meaningful experience but disagreed on the reason for the significance of the meeting. The purpose of the conference was to outline the trends the university will undergo in the 70's and decide what could be done with them," Claiborne Jones, assistant to the president of the Carolina Union, said. "But -we didn't accomplish that at all. "What we really did was to understand each other in the "roles wiuch we must play on campus." Miss Jones continued. International Student Center chairman Jeff Hilliker commented. "The conference was just fun. Now if I want to get something done on campus I know where to go. "But if anyone thought there was going to be a change in the basic philosophy or structure of the University because of the conference, it just won't happen," he explained. Sophomore Mike Hilliker's sentiments. Medford echoed Continued from page one The Consume Protection Service has : recommended that Student Stores on the Chapel Hill campus buy in bulk with other campuses within the Consolidated University in order to get cheaper prices. "We can't let bureaucracy determine our buying," he said. "It would be so complicated that it would be unthinkable." RCF Backs SL In Visitation Continued from page one "ridiculous," citing the case in James last weekend, which would wipe out James "allotment" in one blow. The RCF is presently looking for an -alternative in this matter. Assistant Director of Residential Life Fred Culbreth noted that vandalism in the dorms directly hurt the occupants of all residence colleges. Additionally, RCF Co-Chairman Suzanne Wellborn asked each governor to look for ways to bolt dormitory-owned television sets to the floor, as stealing of TV sets has always been a major problem. It was also discussed at the meeting that the Office of Residential Life will conduct electirical survey, which will be sent to occupants of all dorm shortly, according to Culbreth. The survey will attempt to determine ..the use of electricity in-each dorm,-with. the purpose in mind of obtaining more refrigerator permits where possible. The Student Stores general manger said the quality -would be lowered by buying on state contract, since the brands purchased would be determined by bid rather than by quality. Stauber said the campaign against the Student Stores is not a persona vendetta against Shetley or anyone else. "When a student complains, it is our duty to place this complaint to the appropriate body," he said. The CPS tfiairman said he had received several complaints concerning the Student Stores. 'The Student Government is in no way opposed to serving those students in need," said Stauber. "Alternatives, more equitable alternatives, do exist, though, over the present system that many students feel is unequitable." The Student Stores manager said if students have legitimate complaints, his "door is always open to an individual." Shetley pointed out that the Student-Faculty Stores Committee which was established by the trustees, acts as an appelate court to student complaints. The committee meets monthly to discuss complaints and suggestions. The committee is composed of three students who are appointed by the student body president, three faculty members who are appointed by the chancellor, the general manager of the University and the general manager. The committee will meet soon, according to Shetley. "We are competitive in our prices," Shetley noted. He added that many of 'the- ttowntown merchants would like to see the Student Stores gone since its acts as a price stabilizer. f "-mm,-, ; ----- J F I """ " J'X -,;V'' f !) "Any unrealistic idea about an immediate effect on campus affairs was squashed for me when I returned to campus early to be involved in the brutal fids of s-ch issues as visitation. Medford served as defense counsel for the resident of the fourth floor James who was put on probation earlier this week for violating the administration's visitation policy. The value of the conference to Yack Editor Joe Mitchiner arose from a somewhat different need. "Working in the Yack office, I don't have to face some of the problems of the student government every day. "I really got an education up there-it gave me a much greater awareness of the problems of the University," Mitchiner said. But the "communication" which characterized the conference for so many people was seen in a different light by the Yack chief. "Sometimes the "communication up there-all the words-almost ?ae me a sense of comic relief. "The Vonrr.uniution everyone so desperately talking about and attempting to achesve in some cases kept people from understanding and trust!?! each other, he explained. The selection of participants, particularly students, was again a significant sore point amont the students, as it was among faculty members ho attended the conference. i think there could have been a better CToss-section of the students of the University represented there, as several of the professors said," Ralph May, a junior from Raleigh who attended, commented. "We could have gotten some people up there who were non-invo!ved though I'm not sure how you would find them. Everyone up there was, without a doubt, involved," May commented. 2 UNC Professors Edit Book On South Two Chapel Hill youths who identified themselves only as Keith and Jeffery seem to be enjoying themselves as they attempt to fix two old bikes.

Game Early Gates serving students will open at noon and students planning to attend the UNC-South Carolina games are urged to get to Kenan Stadium early, according to an announcement by Athletic Business Manager Vernon Crook. . Crook requested students to take advantage of the early opening time in order to avoid congestion he said could develop if they wait until 1 p.m. The game is a complete sellout and will begin at 1:30. There will be 14 student lanes at the gate. UNC News Bureau Two University English professors, C. Hugh Holman and Louis D. Rubin Jr., are among three co-editors of a new textbook anthology of Southern literature published this week. "Southern Writing, 1585-1920," a 994-page volume providing the most detailed coverage ever made available of the literature of the South up to modern times, has been published by Odyssey Press of New York, under the editorship of Holman, Rubin, and Professor Richard Be ale Davis of the University of Tennessee. The new anthology, which includes selections from the work of more than 150 authors from earliest colonial days is designed for use in college and university courses in Southern studies. Among the innovations in the work is its extensive recognition of the contributions of black authors to the South's literature. Six black Southern writers-the slave poet George Moses Horton, Frederick Douglass, William Wells Brown, Booker T. Washington, Charles Waddell Chesnutt and James Weldon Johnson-are represented. Only one of these has ever before had work included in anthologies of Southern literature. The new volume is also notable for the thoroughness with which it treats the extensive but hitherto unexplored literary output of the colonial South. Each of the editors is a nationally-known specialist in his period. Professor Davis is author of a number of books on colonial and early national Southern literature, including the prize-winning "Intellectual Life in Jefferson's Virginia." Professor Holman has written extensively on William Gilmore Simms and has published books on various aspects of nineteenth and twentieth century Southern literature. Professor Rubin is author and editor of twelve books on Southern literature and society, including the recent biography "George W. Cable: The Life and Times of a Southern Heretic. . ;P i :i Vv vis; A p. 5 ' ' - " O - " - '--:. .... t : ; ! . " J. . I i v;.i ;v. : 'mi mimmhmmii I lit-.

We're not, obviously. What we do mean, though, is that in the first five months of this year, the new Audi 100LS has had greater sales increases than any other German car. (And the Germans make some pretty re markable cars, like Mercedes, Porsche, VW and BMW, to name just a few.) Apparently, the Audi must really have something. And what the Audi has is this: Features that are more advanced than just about every other car in the world. (They should be. What with sixty-one years of engineering experi ence under our belt) To begin with, there's front wheel drive. So you can corner with the stabil ity of a racing car. And. speaking of racing cars, it might interest you to know that the steering system they use is the very same steering system the Audi uses. It's called rack-and-pirtion steering. And ifs the simplest, most direct, most responsive steering system a car can have. V The Audi has inboard front disc brakes. We put them right in the car' s airstream to keep them cooL So you can keep cool and not worry about them fad ing. We also made them large enough to bring an Audi moving 60 miles an hour to a complete stop in about four seconds. It also has a unique rear suspension. Back there in the back, there's an axle thaf s so flexible, that when one wheel hits a bump, only one wheel goes thump. (We had that axle patented, so forget about looking for it on any other car.) And as for the engine, well, it gets about 26 miles to the gallon. Which is incredible for a car that can go from 0 to "50 in a mere 8 seconds. Even the interior of the Audi is ex traordinary. With seats that are not only . very plush, but also very comfortable. (They were designed by orthopedic sur geons.) And a heating and ventilation system that completely changes the air every 30 seconds. And enough room for afamilyof five. ' But enough said. Why not come in and get to know the Audi the only way you can. By driving it. (You can find out where your nearest Porsche Audi dealer is by calling 800-553-9550 free. Or, in Iowa, call 319-242-1867 collect) We're sure youTl be extremely im pressed with the way the Audi perf orms. In fact, it wouldn't surprise us one bit if you said the Audi performs like nothing you've ever driven before. . . A lot of people in Germany have said the very same thing. .'rri .-' ' r -" 1 Tfig.
