(Staff Photo by Tom Norby) by Greg Turosak Staff Writer The Department of Residence Life has come out with an interim policy concerning the use of social lounges in residence halls which will remain in effect until all the residence halls can be consulted and a final policy is determined later this fall. The policy states that, in order to obtain use of common areas for parties or other functions, residence college and house organizations must reserve the area at least 48 hours in advance. Other groups of students, not associated with the residence halls, must arrange with the residence director of the area for the use of lounges at least 48. hours but not more than a week in ; advance. Any groups who use the common areas must abide by any written policy previously adopted by that residence unit as long as that policy does not conflict with the interim policy. In addition, the group must sign in advance with the residence director to assume financial responsibility for cleanup and damages, the policy states. Those common areas affected by the interim policy are the Morehead Cellar; Mangum basement; the first floor social lounges in James and Morrison; and the basement lounges in Ehringhaus, Parker, Teague, Avery, Craige, Graham, Winston and Alexander. According to John Meeker, assistant director of Residence Life, "Very little attention was given to campus security in the past." He said it is "quite apparent that people are subject to assault." "We are tiying to insure that people are able to use the social lounges as freely as possible," he said, "and have their security and safety protected." Meeker deplored the situation in some residence halls last year "where non-students assaulted, verbally and physically," some dorm residents. He said it . was important to keep in mind that these problems involved not only black male non-students on South Campus, who received the most publicity last year, but also white male non-students in the Upper Quad dorms. The new policy, he said, is designed to give the residents "first choice" in the use of their lounges. Director of Residence Life Bob Kepner expressed confidence that a final policy on the use of common areas can be reached within the next couple of months. "There is a certain advantage in having a campuswide policy," Kepner said, "but because facilities differ and people differ, it may be necessary to adopt a general overall policy with some variations to suit the different residence halls." Residence Life consulted Richard Epps, student body president; Eliott Stephenson, governor of James; Fred Schroeder, director for student hfe; James Cansler, associate dean for student affairs; and the residence directors in forming the interim policy. Residence Life will await "input" from all the residence halls before drawing up a final policy. Other security improvements on campus include more lights around Kenan, Mclver and Alderman dorms and McCorkle place, and the locking of all wing doors from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. in South Campus dorms.

Noise is defined in the ordinance as "any sound, structured or unstructured, continuous or discontinuous, that is of such a volume as to endanger the health, safety or welfare of, or which constitutes a public or private nuisance to, the citizens of the town." In addition to the above definition, "noise" itself is separated into two categories -necessary and unnecessary. "Necessary noises," Serving ultimately useful and desirable public purposes, include types such as those made by horns, bells, sirens, parades and concerts, power mowers, jack hammers, riveting hammers, chain saws, high speed and heavy construction equipment, public transportation, blasting, and street cleaning. "Unnecessary noises," which are of most direct concern to students, are emitted by warning devices used in situations where there is no imminent danger, vehicles with improper or unsatisfactory mufflers, model aircraft, mini-bike rodeos or boisterous celebrations, radios, phonographs, juke boxes, public address systems, television tape machines or other amplifying devices one.rateH in the. open at high volume, the open ranges and for fire combos performing in private parties, firing works. The ordinance prohibits the use or operation of any mobile sound system. The yardstick by which unreasonable volume, loudness or duration is measured pertains to those noises "which interfere with the . conversation between two persons of normal hearing at the property adjoining the property from which such noise is being generated." Code violations will be handled through the complaints of citizens and the discretion of the Chapel Hill Police Department. Levine said the new code was not enacted solely to combat noisy fraternity parties but was a more general response by the Board of Aldermen to "noise ution" in the area.
