.Merchant accused
of Brice violations
by Norman Black
Staff Writer
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
filed a complaint Friday against The Hub
of Eastgate, Inc. for violating the Phase II
price-posting regulations.
The suit, filed by the U.S. Attorney's
Office in the federal district court in
Greensboro, carries a maximum penalty
of $2,500 for the violation.
P.M. Hutts, head of the Investigations
and Compliance Branch of the
Greensboro IRS, said the retail men's
clothing store was in violation of the new
pricing and posting regulations required
under the Phase II economic program.
According to Hutts, The Hub was
"contacted by the IRS and then
recontacted, and they had still not
complied with the regulation."
The pricing and posting regualtions
require the retailer to post a sign in each
department listing the base price of
"those 40 items in each department
which had the highest dollar sales volume
during the last fiscal year, or those items
in each department which accounted for
at least 50 percent of the total dollar sales
volume during the last fiscal year,
whichever is lowest."
The retail establishment is also
required to post at least one sign, a
minimum of 22 inches by 28 inches,
announcing the availability of base price
information on all other items sold by the
store.
The Internal Revenue Service is
charged with enforcing the regulations.
The Hub was unable to comment since
they have not received notice of the IRS
complaint.
The IRS has reported some 70 retail
firms around the country have been sued
for violations of the Phase II regulations.
In addition to endorsing the caucus.
AWS members agreed to encourage
women living in University housing to
register to vote.
'It is necessary that women who are
interested in what women can do should
register," AWS President Cathy
Cauthorne said Tuesday.
As a follow-up to Women's Week,
which was sponsored by AWS last fall,
three women from the Women's Bureau
of the Department of Labor will speak at
7:30 p.m. Feb. 14. The women will
discuss sex discrimination and outline
plans of action for women who face
discrimination.
Women in the job market may also be
the topic for a careers week tentatively
scheduled by AWS for the week of April
3. Juanita Krepps, dean of the Women's
College at Duke University, has been
asked to open the week with a speech
Monday night.
Careers week may include panel
discussions, speeches and informal talks
with prominent professional women.
Sign-up sheets will be posted in
dormitories so that women may indicate
their interest in a careers week and
suggest topics for discussion.
If women show interest in a careers
week, activities will be scheduled in
women's dorms in an effort to reach
more students.
.Board defers power line action ;$M0P&b

The Chapel Hill Board of Aldermen
referred to the Planning Board for
recommendation Monday on the
University's request for a new power
transmission line and a proposed
modification of town parking
requirements for fraternities where
historic buildings are involved.
The action came during a public
hearing conducted by the aldermen
Monday night in the Town Hall
Courtroom.
During their regular business meeting,
the board tabled indefinitely a proposed
ordinance that would require all bicycles
used in Chapel Hill to be registered and
licensed.
The public hearing began with a
presentation by Allen Waters, director of
engineering for UNC. Waters reiterated to
the public the critical power shortage the
town would face by this summer and
stressed the need for quick action.
"The community faces a very critical
power situation," Waters said. "The
problem is twofold: We must have a new
transmission line, and we must have a
new substation."
Several Chapel Hill residents voiced
concern over the proposed location of the
new substation at the northeast corner of
the 15-501 Bypass and Mt. Moriah
Church Road. Many of those present
thought the station was being placed in
an area .where the residents would receive
few if any direct benefits.
After hearing public discussion, the
board referred the matter to the planning
board. The aldermen then considered a
zoning ordinance change governing
parking at fraternity and sorority houses.
The change would allow Delta Upsilon
fraternity to build a new house.
The amendment would allow the
aldermen to relax the parking
requirement for a fraternity or sorority
house when it would save a historical
building or site.
There was no public discussion, so this
item was also referred to the planning
board for their final recommendation.
During the regular business meeting
following the public hearing, the
aldermen decided to table indefinitely a
proposed ordinance which would have
required all bicycles used in Chapel Hill
to be registered and licensed.
The aldermen decided last December
that licensing and registration was needed
here to improve bicycle safety and aid the
identification of lost and stolen bikes.
The board had considered an annual SI
license fee for all bikes within the town
limits and suggested an inspection
procedure to accompany licensing to
insure that bikes were properly equipped.
