Vice-Chancellor Joe Eagles said
Tuesday the primary reason for the
paving of the runway is because of the
"great growth in the use of planes by the
University medical service.
"I think it is an essential service for
the University," Eagles commented,
adding that the airport had been unsafe
for plane traffic.
A committee of the University's
Faculty Council recommended last July
paving the 3,500-foot runway while
gradually eliminating public use of the
airport.
'The primary function (of the airport)
should be as a base for essential
University services," the report said.

One group which has been opposed to
the paving of the airport is the Citizens

Ray Green, former chairman of the
citizens group, says the group hopes that
a new site can be found for the airport.
"We feel that the airport is
inappropriately located," Green
explained. "When first established about
30 years ago, the airport was in a rural
area. Now the area has become
extensively developed and there are
schools and homes near the airport.
"If paved, it will probably remain an
airport indefinitely," Green said Monday.

Three members of the Storm Troopers

of James L. Cates at a preliminary hearing
Tuesday.

William Johnson, all of Durham, were

compulsory chapel at West Point. He has
been going through the process of
resigning from the Army for political
reasons.
John Wheeler, one of the organizers of
the meeting and march, said the meeting
"will begin a militant long-term campaign
to eliminate ROTC" on this campus.
Wheeler continued, "It has been clear
in the past, particularly last year, that
there is a great deal of anti-war sentiment
on this campus. But most of us have been
unwilling to examine the role of local
institutions in the war effort.
"Refusal to deal with ROTC on the
grounds we must maintain the
University's academic neutrality is
implicit support for present U.S. policy.
"Given Nixon's lack of responsiveness
to the will of the American people,"
Wheeler charged, "it is clear now that we
must engage in local political actions
which make it increasingly difficult and
ultimately impossible for Nixon to
conduct this war.
"We all unconsciously take a political
stand by allowing, the military to operate
on this campus. We must now consciously
take a decent and humane political stand
by struggling to eliminate ROTC from
this campus."

The University applied for federal
money about a year ago to improve the
airport but did not follow through on the
application after receiving protests from
the citizens group.
"The federal money would have
required a 20-year commitment," said
Green, "our group felt that the University
would use the land for other things."
Eagles would not disclose estimates of
the costs for the paving but said the
project is being financed by the N.C.

county jail in Hillsborough pending the
action of a grand jury next week.
The preliminary hearing in
Hillsborough was held for the three men
who were charged after Cates' stabbing
outside the Carolina Union in the early
morning hours of Nov. 21 .
The case of Brian King, who is charged
with assault with intent to commit
murder, was ordered continued until Dec.
15. The state's main witness did not
answer a subpoena to appear at the
Tuesday hearing causing the delay.
King's case was continued over
vigorous defense objections. He is free on
$5,000 bond.
Attorney Adam Stein of Charlotte has
joined State Superior Court Solicitor
Herbert Pierce in preparing the case
against the four defendants.
Stein has been associated with several
civil rights cases, including the defense of
David Blevins in the first test of the UNC
disruptions policy last year.
It was revealed at the hearing, at the
request of the defense attorneys, that
Stein has been employed by James Cates,
Sr., the deceased man's father, and the
deceased's paternal grandmother.
Several new facts were brought out
during the four-and-a-half hours of
testimony in the prehminary hearing
which was held Tuesday afternoon at 2
p.m.
The hearing was originally scheduled
to be held at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday but was
delayed in order that Solicitor Pierce
would have time to prepare the state's
case.
Dr. Walter W. Burns, a first year
resident at the N.C. Memorial Hospital,
testified that he was one of the doctors
who attended Cates when he was brought
to the emergency room following the
stabbing.
Burns also said that Cates was alive
when he reached the hospital but died "

Airport said there have been "about 12
complaints" in the past year, mostly
concerning noise and low-flying planes.
"Every complaint has been
investigated-none of the 35 phnes
(which are currently at the airport) have
been responsible for the noise," said the
spokesman, who refused to give his name.
Of the complaints investigated, most
were traced to N.C. National Guard
planes and "transient aircraft," according
to the spokesman.
There are three runways at the airport,
one of which is temporarily closed. The
runway which is to be paves is not close
to any homes, said the spokesman.

Immediate care for Cates could have
saved his life, according to Burns.
The four other witnesses the state
. called Tuesday from iLaruiQuaccd list of
'25 prospective witnesses gave, differing
accounts of the events surrounding Cates'
death.
Nathaniel Davis, a black employee of
the Student Union Snack Bar, said he did
not see the actual stabbing of Cates, his
cousin, but that he had rushed outside
upon hearing of the brawl and found
Cates lying on the sidewalk bleeding
badly.
Davis continued his testimony saying
that he had twice tried to take his cousin
to the hospital but that he was refrained
from doing so. The second time he picked
up Cates to take him to the hospital,
Davis reported that a campus policeman
halted him.
Calvin Edwards, a black Chapel Hill
youth, reported he saw all three of the
defendants who are charged with
first-degree murder standing over Cates
outside the Union. He also testified he
saw all three of them stab Cates one or
more times.
Charles Holtzclaw, a UNC sophomore,
reported that he saw no one actually stab
Cates but that he did see a straight razor
in Cates' hand sometime before the
stabbing.
Holtzclaw also reported he saw a
group of at least 10 blacks chase a Storm
Trooper into the Pit following the
stabbing and then beat him with boards
which had been torn from a construction
barricade in the area.
Edwards reported that he noticed no
weapon in Cates' possession. He also said
that he saw Broadwell, one of the
defendants, slap Cates prior to the
stabbing.
The attorneys for the defense in the
case are Barry T. Winston for Broadwell;
Michael Levine for Rufus Nelson and
James Maxwell for both William Johnson
and Brian King.
"Once people realize this, we think
that complaints will cease," he added.
