This year's invisible campaign for student body president has lost one of its few chances of visibility. As he promised earlier, candidate Pitt Dickey last week challenged opponent Ford Runge to a debate today of the Lincoln-Douglas variety. Runge accepted, but as Dickey explained Sunday, the pressure was put on him to find an acceptable indoor place H individual "not to himself, but to others and the world around him." Harper Peterson of the Chapel Hill Recreation department calls the fair dn "opportunity for us as a community to better understand and appreciate the immediate and far-ranging danger our environment is facing, and to respond to this danger through participation and cooperation by taking action." Peterson began work on the idea of the fair during November of last year and J v "J in which to hold the debate since the Blue Sky Party had made the challenge. According to Dickey, who had wanted to debate outdoors, time was too short and "it was too much of a hassle," so there will be no debate. Where does that leave the contest? Both candidates have, by their admission, done very little campaigning in the past week. Runge's campaigners finally started canvassing Sunday night, and will continue canvassing tonight and Tuesday night. The effort will be greatest in those ji-TL - called a meeting of interested people in December. Since January, representatives from various parts of the community have been meeting to stimulate efforts to make the fair successful. Pete Hall, assistant dean for Student Life, was asked to coordinate UNC groups and activities. "The Recreation Department came to the University because we were involved in the Apple Chill Fair last year," Hall said. "I have been meeting with the heads of dorms, fraternities, sororities and other groups to get them involved in the fair now." Hall said that a number of ideas have already been suggested as to how groups can take part: collecting newspapers for recycling, identifying areas to be cleaned up, organizing trash pick-up in town and on campus, raising funds for the purchase of a glass crusher and more newspaper containers, publicity for the programs, film series, and others. "Professor Al Turner from Environmental Sciences has arranged a mini-lecture series on the environment which will be aired over WCHL, and hopefully WCAR," Hall continued. "The Association of Women Students has Heels avenge Miami loss UNC holds off by Winston Cavin Sports Editor CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va.-Going into Saturday's game in University Hall, the Virginia Cavaliers were trying to do something no UVa team had done in 54 years - beat North Carolina twice in one season. The record still stands. The Wahood. victors over UNC earlier this season, failed to pull off the double victory trick as the Tar Heels rolled to" a convincing 76-68 triumph. Carolina led most of the way before stashing the ACC win. UNC's record moved to 21-5 overall and 7-3 in the ACC, good tor second place in the standings. Virginia is now 1 2-9 and 4-7.

On Wednesday, election day, Runge and company will move to day-long get-out-the-vote maneuvers. Meanwhile, Dickey has nothing in particular planned.

"Doug Anderson from the Union is setting up a series of films on the environment to run for one week, but we're not sure which week yet. As far as UNC goes," he said, "we have many ideas, but people haven't committed themselves to the tasks." The Kedos Fair is sponsored by the Chapel Hill Recreation Department in conjunction with many other groups in the community. The fair will end with the week long Apple Chill Fair, which began for the first time last year. "Fair Kedos is an opportunity, for us as citizens, to take a look at our environment, and to reflect upon ourselves," Peterson said in his proposal for the fair. "For it is through our environment, the world we walk and breathe in, that reflects to a great degree the character and quality of a culture, its people and their styles of living." Any campus group, organization or individuals interested in working with the fair are invited to attend a meeting at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 28 in room 217 of the Union, or contact Pete Hall in the Office of Student Affairs at 933-1309. C7 first half, when Carolina's defense was impregnable and Virginia seemed unable to do anything right. The Heels held the Hoos to a pitiful 23 per cent from the floor in building a 3 1 -20 halftime advantage. Carolina's Dean Smith was delighted to get an ACC win on the road against a good Virginia team. "Our defense was outstanding in the first half," he said. "Virginia didn't shoot as well as they did in Chapel Hill." The Wahoos shot 56 per cent : Chapel Hill, 39 per cent Saturday. "When you spread people out, it's a great equalizer," Smith said of coach P '! Gibson's strategy. "Height doesn't matter as much." Virginia employed a deliberate spread offense in both games in an attempt to nullify Carolina's imposing height advantage. They did outrebound the Heels, 34-32.

The meeting was called to order by Richard Epps, an ex-officio voting member of the CGC since he has not resigned as president of the student body.

After the election of the speaker, the CGC moved to adopt the by-laws. The Agenda Committee, which has been the subject of some controversy , was discussed.

Meetings may be held in dorms, in Chape! Hill and in Carrboro. 68 76 Gibson, meanwhile, was talking about how poorly his team performed. "There are very few games lot in the first half," he said. "I think this was the case today. We" were unbelievably bad in the first half. They outhustled us and we suffered from a lack of patience. "We made a good run at them in the second half, when we closed it to two or three, but then we eased up. We didn't get the defense we expected." The Cavalier coach took a jab at the ACC referees, who seem ail too eager at times to call a technical fo'il. In Saturday's game. Barry Parkhill was slapDed with a technical for failing to raise his hand quickly enough after a foul was called on him. Gibson thought this was an example of the over-reaction of the ACC refs.
