Friday. December 4. 1970 ft.:- - i - t . . , In Georgetown tourney - , f . r - " line use 4 - r The Dally Tar Heel - - jfC Vs.- : by Doug Hall The UNC Debate Team tied for third place at the Georgetown University Invitational Debate tournament during the Thanksgiving holiday after competing in a field of 130 teams. Debaters Joe Loveland and Joe McGuire lost to UCLA, a team they had defeated earlier this season, in the semifinals of the tournament, one of the largest and most prestigious in the country. UCLA won the Georgetown contest. The Georgetown tournament was the second third-place finish in the past two weeks for the pair. Their first third-place finish came in the Dixie Classic Tournament at Wake Forest, which attracted an 80 team field and was won by George Washington University. At the Georgetown tourney, McGuire, a junior, and Loveland, a sophomore won seven of eight preliminary rounds, beating , George Washington and Loyola University, the team which lost to UCLA in the tournament finals. "The competition at Georgetown was extremely difficult," said Loveland. "If you are doing well, you debate some very Author set powerful teamsat a large tournament like Georgetown." Loveland said finishing third at Georgetown was the "second best effort" this year by the UNC Debate team, the first being the team's first place showing in the Peachtree Debate Tournament at Emory University earlier this year. "Our showing at Georgetown is proof to the rest of the country that McGuire and I are not a fluke," Loveland said. "UNC has not been a perennial debate power, so some people thought it was a fluke when we won at Emory." McGuire said the showing at Georgetown places the UNC team near the top nationally, if not at the top. The Emory and Georgetown tournaments are the two largest in the country, McGuire said. Another pair of UNC debaters, Dave Kruse and Harold Kennedy will compete in a tournament at Ohio State University this weekend. Loveland and McGuire will debate a team from Oxford University, England, Anthony Speaight and Stephan Milligan, at 8 p.m. Monday in Gerrard Hall. They will debate the topic, "Resolved, that American Democracy has failed." The debate will be open to the public. Loveland and McGuire have tentatively planned a trip to the West Coast during the Christmas vacation, but financial support for the trip is still in doubt. If they do go, the team will debate in tournaments at UCLA, the University of Southern California, and Redlands University. "Competition in these tournaments is important for a team to do well nationally," said Loveland. Loveland said the UNC debate program has been improving for the last three years and will continue "building." One of the major problems of the UNC team is keeping up with research since the team is very small with only 1 2 members, he said. "We have done pretty well at keeping up so far," Loveland said, "and we hope to continue." v . !f 1 i I v. - "1 i' -i. ....

"Sometimes," Miss Howard notes, "we don't even know what we really feel." To solve such problems is the aim of the human potential movement. A reception for Miss Howard, a staff writer for Life magazine, will be held tonight at Project Hinton at 9 p.m. All students and faculty are invited to attend. by Woody Doster Staff Writer The names of students who still have overdue phone bills will be turned over to University officials "within two weeks," said the Chapel Hill Telephone Company's commercial manager Tuesday. "The University can deal with these people as they see fit," said John Cox. On Nov. 8, he reported that 226 UNC students collectively owed the telephone? company "more than $ 11 ,000." "We have sent these people collection notices," said Cox, "and the response has been generally good." However, some of . the bills remain uncollected, he said. "Approximately 70 percent" of the campus phones which were disconnected for overdue bills have been cut back on, ' said Cox. He added the phones which still have overdue bills would normally be removed. However, new students moving into the rooms would have to pay to have the phones reinstalled. Graduates who left the University with overdue bills will soon receive follow-up letters, informing them that their names will be turned over to the Credit Bureau unless they pay within tnree weeks, said Cox. The Credit Bureau is a national debt collection agency designed to -help local merchants collect unpaid bills. "Students who fail to pay when contacted by the Credit Bureau risk court action and the loss of their credit rating," said Cox. Levine, head of the North Carolina Survey on Nutrition. Leading discussion groups will be Chapel Hill Mayor Howard Lee, Dr. Thomas Ribich of the economics department, Dr. Stephen Birdsall of the geography department and Dorothy Gamble, a social worker with the inter-church council. Two films will be shown: an NBC film on migrant workers and the CBS "Hunger in America" film. The idea of fasting together in a "community spirit coupled with educational inputs" was designed with the intent of creating a more acute awareness of the issues, according to the YWD. YWD is an international organization concerned with the activities of the American Freedom from Hunger Foundation. The Foundation was established in 1961 at the suggestion of late President John F. Kennedy. It is a nonprofit, nonsectarian organization financed through the contributions of individuals, corporations, nonprofit foundations and through a fixed portion of the proceeds Students find sponsors among friends or relatives in their areas who are willing to support the walk and contribute monej for walking a certain distance. The money is used for two self-help projects, 42.5 percent for a foreign project, and 42.5 percent for a local project. The other 15 percent goes to the Freedom from Hunger Foundation. Bill Brieger, a junior from Bel Air, Md., is field representative for the American Freedom from Hunger Organization. His area covers North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia. Brieger and his assistant, Richard Darr, a junior from Newton-Conovcr, have talked to people in their area about walks for spring. They report a potential for 15 walks, including areas such as Charleston, West Virginia, Greenville, Winston-Salem, Raleigh, Greensboro, Charlotte and Newton-Conover. "We provide the technical assistance, but youth leaders in other communities plan their own walks," Darr said. The Second Chapel Hill Walk Against Hunger will tak place on March 20.
