Deacs' rally
stuns Heels
in 67-66 win
by Gene Upchurch
Assistant Sports Editor
What can you say?
With nine seconds left in its basketball
game against Wake Forest Wednesday night
in Carmichael Auditorium, North Carolina
had a chance to win. With no seconds left,
North Carolina had lost the game by one
point, 67-66.
A last-second shot by Carolina's Walter
Davis that would have made Carolina the
victor bounced off the rim as the clock ran
out and sent the Tar Heels to the lockerroom
very frustrated and the Wake Demon
Deacons back to Winston-Salem very
elated. Carolina was ranked third in the
nation before the game. Carolina's record
now drops to 13-3, 5-2 in the Atlantic Coast
conference, while Wake moves to 15-2 and 5
1 and into the conference lead.
Carolina led the entire game by as much
as 15 points early in the second half until
Wake caught up and jumped ahead 61-60
with four minutes to go in the game.
Carolina had gone to the four-corners
offense with nine minutes to go, and Wake
had slowly chipped away at the Tar Heels'
seemingly safe lead. Carolina had a chance
to put the game out of reach of the persistent
Deacons when UNC reserve forward Bruce
Buckley was fouled with 36 seconds to go.
But, he missed two free throws and Wake
took control.
Carolina's Phil Ford fouled out when he
was called for blocking Wake's Jerry
Schellenberg after Schellenberg collided
with him on a drive. Schellenberg connected
on both free shots, and all that remained was
Davis' missed attempt.
"We have had similar comebacks," Wake
Coach Carl Tacy said after the game, "but I
don't think any of them can compare with
this. We beat a great team. 1 don't know of
many that can come in here and beat
Carolina. We did all we wanted to do to
defend the four corners and contain it."
Wake forward Rod Griffin led all scorers
with 21 points. Ford led Carolina scorers
with 19 points while Davis put in 18 and
Tommy LaGarde 16. Griffin also led the
rebounding with 12 while LaGarde pulled
down II.
Smith said Wake must be favored to win
the conference now, and said he was
impressed with Wake's almost flawless
second half.
"They weren't throwing the ball away as
much as they did in the first half against our
pressure," Smith said.
Opponents lambast ERA

RALEIGH Opponents of the Equal
Rights Amendment (ERA) stressed its
negative effects on the traditional family,
the military and the powers of state
government as they addressed members
of the N.C. House Constitutional
Amendments Committee Wednesday.
They said they feared the amendment
because they did not know how future
Supreme Courts would interpret its
provisions.
Anti-ERA forces spoke at the first of
two public hearings on ERA. Proponents
will speak today at 3:30 p.m. in the
legislative auditorium.
' Thirty-eight states must ratify the
amendment by 1979 for it to become law.
Indiana became the 35th state by
approving it last week.
ERA - critics said passage of the
amendment would threaten the family
unit by forcing mothers to work outside
the home. "If a man decides he doesn't
want to work, this men's liberation
amendment would force women to put
their children in a day care center and go
to work," Mrs. D. L. Anderson of
Raleigh said. "Women need their labor
laws."

Abra cadaver; few grateful dead
by Will Jones

Myths and jokes about medical school
cadavers are perennial, but the task of
acquiring them is no laughing matter.
Schools like UNC depend upon people
bequeathing their bodies for study after
death. That means med schools rarely have a
surplus of cadavers, for many potential
donors dislike the idea of being
studied. . .ever. Families may oppose the
idea, or the donor may change his mind on
his deathbed.
Recently, the University of Virginia
experienced a shortage of cadavers, and the
news was carried by the wire services. What
did the school do? Drag in corpses of skid
row bums? Organize senior citizen marathon
contests with grand prizes if they would just
sign a little form?
Such are the jokes that pervade any

effects of women in the military on both
the women and the nation's security. He
said women were not physically capable
of combat duty.
"We have the welfare of our country to
think about as well as the welfare of our
women," Gatsis said. "Don't do this to
our women and our national security."
Other FRA opponents criticized
Section 2 of the amendment, which gives
Congress "power to enforce, by
appropriate legislation, the provisions of
this article."
"It is a surrender of state rights to the
federal government," said Dorothy M.
Slade, chairperson of N.C. Stop ERA. It
is a blank check on the Constitution."
Mrs. Jane Fonvielle of Wilmington
agreed. "We tried it with the schools,
honey, and now the federal government is
running our schools for us."
But future interpretations of the
amendment worried many of its
opponents. "The amendment is so
comprehensive and nondefinitive," Mrs.
Shaula Thomas of Durham said. "Can
you or anyone determine what would
happen if we open this Pandora's Box, as
it's been called."
She noted that the only way to reverse
the amendment would be to pass another
one, a process that has been completed
only once in U.S. history.

the unease felt by anyone who considers the
idea. That points to one reason there are.
shortages of cadavers people put off such
decisions the same way they put off making
wills.
Most schools keep cadavers for
approximately one year. At the end of that
period the bodies are cremated, and the
ashes are sent back to the family upon
request.
The North Carolina General Statutes
cover the process of bequeathal under the
Uniform Anatomical -Gift Act. The act
states, "Any individual of sound mind and 1 8
years of age or more may give all or any part
of his body for any purpose specified. . .the
gift to take effect upon death."
A person's body may be bequeathed in a
will or on a form provided by a medical
school. Any last wishes of the deceased will
be respected in regards to the uses of organs
and body.

If the proposal is passed by the CGC,
it will be submitted for approval by the
student body in the Feb. 9 elections.
r Under.the provisions of the proposal,
the Daily Tar Heel would be funded by
at least 16 per cent of student activities
fees. The 16 per cent figure is based on
the 1976-77 appropriation by CGC.
While the Daily Tar Heel would not
have to submit a yearly budget to the
CGC for approval, it would remain
responsible to SG and to the Student
Activities Fund Office.
Alan Murray, editor of the Daily Tar

A few years ago candidates in student elections
could spend an unlimited amount of money on their
campaignsAnd those who had more could plaster the
campus with posters and flyers, buying a decided edge
over their opponents.
The Campus Governing Council changed things in
Dec. 1 974 by adding a spending limit act to the General
Elections Law. The act held maximum campaign
expenditures for the offices of student body president
and Daily Tar Heel editor to $250.
Candidates for other offices were limited o lesser
amounts.
Two years later, the limits are the same for editor
and president, as are most other limits. But local
printers say that inflation in the printing industry has
UNC's medical school recommends that
the family of the donor be consulted before
bequeathing the body. A family's objection
is not legally binding, but considerable grief
may arise in such a situation.
A funeral service may be held if the body is
bequeathed, and the medical school will pay
the costs of transporting the body after the
service. If the body is to be removed directly
after death, the medical school will also pay
the cost of embalming.
Myths are common about the process of
acquiring cadavers, and a prime one is that
medical schools will pay a person to
bequeath his body. This is false, as is the
belief that a medical student can work on a
cadaver from his hometown.
"We don't want a situation where some
student would work on a person's body from
his hometown," a UNC med school'
spokesperson said. "You could see him go
back home and sayrHey, you remember Old
Man Brown? He's my cadaver at school. "

activity of Student Government. As a
result, the Tar Heel is unable to evaluate
Student Government and serve as an
independent paper." v
Murray also said that this system of
financing would not affect student input
to the paper because the editor is
elected by the students, nor would it
result in increased student fees.
He added that since the Daily Tar
Heel is a large business, unlike most
organizations funded by SG, it requires
a different budgeting system.
Student Body President Billy
Richardson said he firmly supports the
change.
"The proposal will prevent the Daily
Tar Heel from being over-influenced by
Student Government,". Richardson
said.
He added that the proposal would

lowered the buying power of those limits by as much as
20 per cent.
"The latest word was that a major portion of the
printing industry raised their prices effective Jan. 3,
1977, by 6 to 8 per cent," said Steve Gould, general
manager of Student Graphics.
He explained that this increase is in the actual cost of
the paper, which is transferred immediately to the
retail customer. This means that an order which cost
$50 last year now costs $54. Coupling this with the
usualvprofit increase, Gould said, the inflation rate has
been pushed much higher.
"If Student Graphics itself were to keep pace with
the inflationary trend over the past year, we would
probably have raised our rates by 2 1 percent," he said.
Gould said Student Graphics has not passed on costs
at this rate because it essentially has a non-profit
motive.

The Carrboro Board of Aldermen
voted Tuesday to set up a committee for
studying the extension of bus service to
Carrboro.
The proposal would involve joint
funding by the towns of Carr'boro and
Chapel Hill and the University.
Alderman Ernest Patterson asked for
a committee to look at the cost of such a
system, and the level of service it could
provide.
Patterson said he introduced the
proposal because he had found several
Chapel Hill and University
representatives interested in discussing
such a service.
"Carrboro has one-third the
population and one-fifth the tax money
of Chapel Hill, so it's not a rich town,"
Patterson said. "We can't spend as much
total or per capita on the system in
Carrboro.'
Patterson said Tuesday the question
will be whether the University and
Chapel Hill will be willing to help pay
for the bus service.
"With a united front I think we may
be able to get it (extended service),"
Patterson said.
He estimates that 3,000 to 5,000

freedom that the paper hasn't enjoyed in
years."
In addition to new budgeting
procedures, the proposal would
establish a new board of directors for
the Daily Tar Heel, removing it from the
jurisdiction of the Media Board.
"The Media Board is ineffective as a
board of directors," Murray said. He
explained that the Daily Tar Heel is too
big a . business for the already
overloaded Media Board to handle.
The responsibilities of the new board
of directors would include:
making business policy decisions
and establishing operating procedures;
approving the Daily Tar Heer&
budget;
providing annual reports to SG;

and that 80 to 85 per cent of the town's
population is directly involved with the
U niversity as a student or employee.
"I don't think it's fair for the
University to help support a system in
Chapel Hill and not one in Carrboro.
It's not fair," Patterson said.
UNC Vice Chancellor for Business
and Finance Claiborne S. Jones said the
University would have to consider what
its resources would permit it to spend on
such a system and then consider what
advantage the extension would be to the
University.
The school can only use parking fees
to finance such a system. State funds
cannot be used for public transportation
costs.
Jones said the traffic and parking
advisory committee which is composed
of students, faculty members and
nonfaculty employees will help him in
negotiations.
He told the Chapel Hill Newspaper
Wednesday that, "If Chapel Hill comes
to. us with a proposal that has a price,
and if we think the proposal is sound
and in the interest, we may consider it."
The city of Carrboro turned down a
bond referendum last April to finance a
bus system in that town. Patterson said
its failure was due to the absence of
student voters. The election was held
during spring break.
answering formal SG inquiries
concerning operation policies, exclusive
of editorial policy.
The board would consist of seven
members initially appointed by the
Media Board. Additional appointments
would be made by the board itself. The
board would include:
three students appointed for one
year terms, one each by the Daily Tar
Heel editor, the student body president
and the Media Board chairperson;
one graduate student from the
business school appointed for a two
year term;
two faculty members, one from the
journalism school and one from the
business school, appointed for
staggered three-year terms; and
one individual from the community
appointed for a two-year term.

He said Student Graphics has been subsidizing the
candidates in such things as consultation fees and
charges based on the time spent on a job. They have
handled the printing for about half the candidates in
the spring elections.
"Given the limit that they have, most candidates
cannot afford to do what they want to do," Gould said.
"Sometimes the price limitation hampers the
effectiveness of the campaign."
Gould suggested that another $50 might make the
difference in creating a successful campaign.
"You don't have any alternative other than to build
your own er mill," he said.
Lawrence said that the $250 limit should perhaps be
doubled.
