The American Association of
University Professors (A A UP) discussed
Thursday the death of UNC football
player Bill Arnold after the leader of a
group asking athletic reform appeared at
the group's meeting.
Bill Richardson, chairman of the
Committee of Concerned Athletes, a
group of former UNC football players,
distributed copies of the Concerned
Athletes statement on Arnold's death and
urged AAUP members to read the
statement.
Several AAUP members then insisted
upon more discussion of the incident, and
the athletes' report occupied a major
portion of the meeting.
Dr. Dan Okum, chairman of the
Faculty Council, said he could find no
clear statement in the council
committee's report on Arnold's death

An opportunity to give of yourself and
your skills, and a chance to receive
knowledge of another country, culture,
and of yourself as a growing
individual-that's what the Peace Corps
offers to its volunteers.
Peace Corps recruiters will be on
campus Oct. 18-22 to talk to those
interested in volunteering. Booths will be
set up on the first floor of the Student
Union and in Y Court. There will also be
A
ge
to protest student vote
An Orange County resident will
protest the registration of I'NC students
living in dormitories at the Nov. 2 County
Board of Elections meeting.
Jan Pinney of Route 5. Chapel Hill
said Tuesday he would protest the
registrations and challenge the students
right to vote in Chapel Hill.
"It seems to me that if a person comes
here for the express purpose of going to
school, he can't be making a permanent
residence here," Pinney said. "That's
something the courts will have to
decide."
Roger B. Foushee, chairman of the
Orange County Democratic Party,
disagreed with Pinney 's contentions,
saying:
"We have said that anyone who
declares himself a resident in the county
and meets the requirements and
obligations is elegible to vote.
"The disagreement I have is that you
cannot make a blanket statement saying
all students in dormitories are ineligible
for citizenship in Orange County.
"For example, I know a graduate
student in Craig who has not claimed her

that there was no negligence on the part
of the coaching staff.
"Only the sports writers, who are part
of the athletic establishment, came to the
conclusion that there was no negligence
in the death of Bill Arnold," Okum said
at the AAUP meeting of the American
Association of University Professors
(AAUP).
The Committee of Concerned
Athletes, a group of former UNC football
players, distributed copies of their report
attacking the Faculty Council Committee
on Athletics' report of Arnold's death.
Okum urged AAUP members to read
both the faculty and the Concerned
Athletes reports. He said he hoped there
would be a greater response to needed
changes if faculty members read both
reports.
He did not elaborate on what changes
needed to be made.
The Concerned Athletes distributed
copies of their statement Thursday at the
OF1DS
Recruiting drive planned to attract students
a film at 7 p.m. Wednesday in 102
Abernathy.
According to Lib Haubenreiser,
volunteer in Liberia from 1968-1970, this
year the Peace Corps is looking for more
technically trained people, graduate
students and people with degrees in
specific skills.
"There's always room for more liberal
arts students, but the host countries are
becoming more selective now," she said.
"Jobs that were once done by liberal arts
volunteers are now being done by the
host countries themselves."
Another recruiter, Delano Carvalho, is
vLominlty
parent's residence for over four years.
This person would be elegible to vote."
Pinney accused the Orange County
elections board of by-passing the issue by
registering students "on the registrar's
say-so."
Foushee said, statutes governing the
Board of Elections clearly gives the
election commissioner the authority to
determine whether a person is elegible to
vote.
"We have operated under a plan
whereby there must be a declaration of
intent for a duration and definite period
of time," he added. "The question of
permanence is one that touches everyone
in today's society, such as professors,
bank employees, and others - not just
students.
Pinney announced plans to compare
the county tax lists with the registration
books in February after property taxes
are listed. He will challenge those
students who have registered to vote but
have not listed their property for tax
purposes.
The Orange County resident said he
would also swear out warrants aeainst

AAUP meet inn follow ire the
of their Sunday press confereiue b
members of the football team and
coaching staff.
The football team voiced support o!
the coaching staff during the
emotion-charged press conference. Head
football coach Bill Dooley and Bill
Richardson, chairman of the Concerned
Athletes, had a heated discussion of
Arnold's death and the UNC football
program.
AAUP members said further discussion
of both reports will be conducted by the
executive board of the organization.
Okum said, "In looking at the report
distributed by the Concerned Athletes,
you can see 'hat some of the evidence
they use comes directly from the faculty
report. "Also, changes have taken place in the
handling of athletes, showing there was
not complete adherence to the practice

Pe3ce Corps is looking for people who
can look at a community and "do the
community's thing rather than their
own."
"It's going out to work with people
and helping them without their
knowing," he said. "A Peace Corps
volunteer must be flexible, motivated,
friendly and adaptable."
Peace Corps sent its first M)0
volunteers to nine countries onlv- 10 vear
ago. This year there will be lh000

those students for failure to list taxes and
tor perjury, since voters must swear under
oath they are bona fide residents of
Orange County.
"My point is if they're going to vote,
they're going to have to pay taxes in
Orange County and register their cars in
Orange County," Pinney said. "I'm aware
this is probably not enough to preclude
them from voting, but I'm more
concerned with them paying taxes-I
think one goes hand-in-hand with the
other."
Foushee thought students were
already aware of their obligation to list
property for tax purposes.
"We have advised everyone who has
come into our office considering
registration that they would have to hst
their property for taxation." Foushee
said.
"My own personal opinion is a yours
person must decide for himself where his
residence is," he added. "If it is here in
Orange County, then that person has the
right to register and vote here."
Pinney said he will "most Ukelv"take
the issue to court if necessary.

A student Government committee is
working with other state campuses in an
effort to change the law excluding
absentee voting in the May state primary.
The State Affairs Committee is writing
letter and preparing to lobby to change
the law which "is very unjust," said Lacy
Presnell. committee chairman. He said.
''Personally. I think it is
unconstitutional."
The present law provides absentee
balloting in the.
primary
onlv for
members of the Armed Forces.
A move to change the law may be
initiated later this month in the special
session of the N.C. (ieneral Assembly
which convenes October 2o to consider
reorganization of state higher education.
"If they open the session to other
issues there
ballot law
a good chance the absentee
.vi'I be d:-cU--ed." said
Presnell.
"We encourage letters from students
to legislators," he said. "We want to be
ready for our lobbying efforts if they
open up the session to other issues. W-e
are going to try to get th:s issue
resolved."
This year's primary will be held May 2
during spring final exams. "This primary
is very important because it will include
presidential candidates as well as those
for state offices," Presnell said. State
Sen. Hargrove "Skipper" Bowles
(D-Guilford) ir.troduved a measure to
accept all absentee ballots :n the primary
during last car's regular session. The bill
was defeated in the senate.
"Others across the state have
his bill, though," said Presnell.
