The New York Yankees baseball team is coming to Chapel
Hill April 2 for an exhibition game with UNC it was
announced Tuesday.
The game will be played in Cary Boshamer Stadium on the
UNC campus. The Yankees will fly from their spring training
camp in Ft. Lauderdale to Chapel Hill on Saturday, April 2
for the 2:30 p.m. game, and will return to Ft. Lauderdale after
the game.
UNC Head Coach Walter Rabb said half of the
approximately 2,200 tickets for the game will go to students,
with the remainder sold to the general public. Public sale of
tickets begins March 1 and student tickets, which will be free,
will be distributed March 15.
Rabb said the game was scheduled at the suggestion of New
York Yankee Owner George Steinbrenner. "Greg Poole, an
alumnus of North Carolina, is a good friend of Mr.
Steinbrenner, Rabb said. "Poole brought Steinbrenner out
to see our facilities, and Steinbrenner suggested that perhaps
the Yankees would be interested in coming up here to play
UNC.
Rabb then contacted Steinbrenner and said the Tar Heels
would be happy to play the American League pennant
winners. Negotiations on a date then began with the Yankees
and UNC Athletic Director Bill Cobey. The Yankees
suggested one of two possible dates, and the far Heels
changed their schedule to set the game for April 2.
"This is the first time, as far as I know, that a professional
team has played a college team in this state in 20 or 25 years.
, Rabb said. "We of course consider it a tremendous opportunity
to interest people in this area in the game of baseball.
"Evidently, Mr. Steinbrenner is very interested in the
college game." Rabb added. "It will certainly be expensive for
them to fly here and back on the same day. We hope the
students will be interested and that they'll make the Yankees
welcome."
Rabb said the Yankees playing this game would be a good
public-relations event for them, and that it was an example of
where "pro teams might want to put something back into the
college game, But I'll tell you, if we didn't have this facility
(Boshamer Stadium), they wouldn't even think of coming up
here."
Money from ticket sales will be used to help pay for the
Yankees' transportation to and from the airport, and also for
the umpires at the game.
ERA secures
tentative nod
from N.C.House
by Charlene Havnaer
Staff Writer
RALEIGH After three hours of debate
Tuesday, the N.C. House of Representatives
tentatively approved the Equal Rights
Amendment by a vote of 64-52. The final
vote will be taken today.
If passed by the House, the amendment
will go to the Senate. A favorable vote there
would make North Carolina the 35th state to
ratify the amendment. Thirty-eight states
must ratify ERA by March 1979 for it to
become law.
Two attempts to kill the measure were
turned down by the louse.
Rep. Edith L. LUtz, D-CIeveland,
"proposed that the bill be amended to require
a statewide referendum next November to
advise legislators how to vote. This motion
was voted down 63-53.
Another motion made by Rep. John Ed
Davenport, D-Nash, to kill both ERA and
the amendment proposed by Lutz, was
defeated 74-43.
Arguments, both for and against focused
on the effects passage of the amendment
would have on the military, the power of
state government and the family unit.
Rep. Allen Adams, D-Wake, addressed
the opposing argument that passage of the
amendment would threaten national
security by forcing women to participate in
war.
He said that the constitutional powers of
Congress during war allow it to pass laws
insuring successful combat. If securing
successful combat means keeping women
out of combat. Congress would do this, he
said.
Rep. A. Hartwell Campbell, D-Wilson,
argued that Section 2 of the amendment,
which gives Congress the "power to enforce,
by appropriate legislation, the provisions of
this article, would reduce the powers of
. state government regarding laws governing
discrimination.
"No one can say with absolute finality the
effects, this amendment will have," he said.

Assistant professor of geology David
Stewart has requested that the
American Association of University
Professors (AAUP) review his case and
UNC regulations and practices
concerning academic freedom.
In a letter to Jordan Kurland, AAUP
acting secretary general. Stewart
charged that the University is in full
violation of six of the 12 provisions for
the AAUP State College Bill of Rights
for Untenured Professors.
Those rights include:
Equality of academic freedom for
both tenured and untenured faculty
Written reasons fotU-rany
unfavorable decision on tenure or
promotion of untenured faculty.
Faculty committee review if an
untenured faculty member alleges that
an unfavorable tenure decision was
based on inadequate consideration or
because of violations of academic
freedom.
Written and procedural
requirements for untenured faculty in
attaining promotion and tenure.
Giving written terms and
committee,
pay.
Suspension must be with
appointment to an
member before he
conditions of the
untenured facultv
joins the faculty.
Credit for at least three years of
prior service elsewhere by untenured
faculty toward qualifying for tenure at
their new institution.
Three other rights. Stewart wrote, are
only partially honored at UNC:
No suspension from classes
without approval of an elected faculty
Adequate consideration for
attaining promotion and tenure and
right to appeal any unfavorable decision
or recommendation.
Full due process, with the
administration bearing the burden of
proof, for all untenured faculty faced
with termination prior to the expiration
of an appointment.
Stewart was denied tenure last
November by the full professors in the
geology department. Reasons given for
the denial were unfavorable comments
by colleagues, only fair scientific
achievement and a poor potential for
future contributions in his field.

All of '77 tourney on TV regardless of outcome
Bill for televising ACC, Big 4 to go to House
by Merton Vance
Staff Writer
A bill introduced in the N.C. House
of Representatives would require that
the Big Four and ACC basketball
tournaments be televised statewide.
The bill, introduced by Rep. James.
Morgan, D-Guilford, would require
the televising of- the tournaments
provided they are sold out at least 48
hours before the start of the tournament
and also provided that a reasonable
television contract can be arranged.
"A lot of people give money to the
schools but are unable to get tickets.
Morgan said Tuesday. Most of the
schools base ticket distribution to
alumni on the amount of money given to
the school. Morgan said he does not
disagree with the method of ticket
distribution, but he said he thinks that
donors w ho do not give large amounts
of money should be able to sec the
games.
He said his bill is also aimed at
helping students.
"The students follow their teams all
year, and then they can't see the big
one the ACC tournament. These
students would like to see the games
too. Morgan said.
"When it comes to the Big Four and
the ACC tournaments, the students
have a right to. see these games."
Morgan said.
He said that the law would not be
forcing anyone to do anything against
his will.
"If there's not a television station in
the state that wants to cover the games.
then they don't have to." Morgan said,
but he said he thinks a number ol
stations would be willing to carry the
tournaments if given the opportunity.
Critics of the bill have said that the
proposal would allow the legislature to
interfere in a process which is now run by
the athletic departments of the schools
involved in the tournaments.
The bill is apparently aimed primarily
at getting television coverage of the Big
Four tournament, which has not
previously been televised. Also in
previous years, the opening night of the
ACC tournament has been televised
only on aJimited basis.
This year the ACC tournament will be
fully televised.
But Morgan said he thinks that the
public should have a right to see these
events in which there has traditionally
been a strong interest.
Morgan said that some people have
told him that televising the tournaments
might discourage contributions to the
schools involved. This is based on the
assumption that some people donate
large amounts of money to the schools
in order to help assure that they get
tickets to these baseball games.
"I'm not trying to hurt the schools,
and 1 don't think this would hurt
contributions to the teams. But the
public overwhelmingly wants to see
these games." Morgan said.
Morgan does not think this will
happen because the difference between
seeing the game in person and watching
on television would still provide
incentive for people who want to get
tickets.
ago. He is considering taking his case to
court.
In the seven-page letter, plus
enclosures. Stewart stated that his
particular case has been lost because of
the restrictive regulations of the
University designed to protect the
institution rather than the individual.
"It is these regulations that are my
concern since they affect the entire
educational system." Stewart wrote,:
"and particularly affect all presently
untenured faculty at UNC and the
freedom under which they can perform
their duties.
"Assigning equal weight to all twelve
points (with partially honored
provisions receiving half -credit), UNC
is seen to receive a final score of 37.5 per
cent. 1 know of no course in this
University, or any other, where 37.5 per
cent is a passing grade."
Stewart pointed out .that there are
many excellent things about UNC, but
he said there are some serious
deficiencies.
"The taxpayers who support this
institution and the students who pay to'
attend it,r Stewart wrote, "are not
receiving the quality, the example and
the ideals they are led by the University
to expect." j
UNC Chancellor N. Ferebee Taylor
said Tuesday that he has not had time to
read the letter, but he added that he
would not like to comment on
someone's letter to someone else. -
UNC system President William C;
Friday said he had just received the
letter and he and his staff have not had
time to review it.
Stewart added in his letter that the full
details of the five-day hearings
approximately 1,100 pages in six
volumes are on permanent file in the
N.C. Collection of Wilson Library and
available to anyone.
