Approximately 35 persons attend
Nooners elude fuzz, catch buzz
By MEREDITH CREWS
Staff Writer
Making their second comeback
appearance in two weeks, some 35
members of the High Noon Society
shucked and jived their way around
University police Friday on the way to
publicly copping a buzz.
The presence of University Police,
first at the Bell Tower and then at Forest
Theater, forced the High Noon society
to wind up its activities in front of the
Undergraduate Admissions building. '
University Police were stationed at
the Bell Tower prior to the group's noon
marijuana vigil. The society, which met
Sept. 9 for the first time in two years,
then reassembled at Forest Theater.
Although no arrests occurred, one

group but were subject to arrest if they
were in possession of controlled
.substance.
The High Nooners dispersed but later
relocated on the steps of the
Undergraduate Admissions building.
The group did not receive any
complaints from employees at the
Undergraduate Admissions building.
Apparently, no one inside knew the
High Nooners were gathered on the
grounds.
University Police were also unaware
that the High Nooners had resumed
their meeting.
The group sat quietly on the steps of
the building and smoked marijuana,
employing pipes or, for some, more
extravagant devices.
Two of the participants in the rite and
a large black dog played a game of
Frisbee.
A member of the group, who asked
that his name not be given, said the
group's trouble with the University
Police was a result of last week's
publicity of the High Noon Society.
"One of the Nooners placed a
classified ad in the Daily Tar Heel
announcing the meeting." he said. "This
was a mistake because we received
publicity in the Daily Tar Heel after the
ad appeared."
Another male member of the group
was angry about the publicity and the
appearance of the University Police.
"We just want a place to smoke
peacefully without a lot of hassles and
publicity." he said. "We're not bothering
anyone."
The Sept. 9 revival of the High Noon
Society was uneventful, with the
University Police not being present.
Some 60 people gathered at the Bell
lower lor the come-back of the Society.
But only 35 High Nooners were
present at the Friday meeting. The lower
turnout may have been a result of the
presence of University Police.

Justice Department speaks on med school case
WASHINGTON (UP1) - The Carter
administration Monday expressed strong
support for taking race into account in
college admissions but stopped short of

rectify effects of past discrimination.

with the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of
Allan Bakke. a 37-year-old white man who
claimed "reverse discrimination" against
him by the University of California Medical
School at Davis.
The case came to the high court from the
California Supreme Court, which agreed
with Bakke's contention that rejection of his
application for admission stemmed from the
fact that 16 of the I00 openings' at the
medical school were reserved lor minorities.
In the brief, which underwent
considerable revision, the Justice
Department contended there was no
evidence the 1 6 spots represented a strict
quota that was "exlusionary" of whites.
The brief asked that the state court's
decision "be reversed to the extent that it

and the case sent back for reconsideration in
light of that stipulation.
But the Justice Department said the
record in the case is "plainly insult icent" to
news briefs
justify its being used for a sweeping decision
on the constitutionality of various federal
and state programs which consider race as a
factor.
Atty. Gen. Griffin Bell told a news
conference the brief does not represent a
shift in administration policy.
"You think we shifted because the
language is different," he said. "It's a matter
of emphasis. The position of the United
States is that wefavor affirmative action. . .
"We do not think the case involves, except
in a secondary way. quotas. There is a line
between goals and quotas, and if you cross
the line we w ould not be able to enforce the
quotas."

Town cops detain
goldfish walker'
Residents of Granville Towers said Greg
McGraw was just walking his goldfish, but
the Chapel Hill Police Department saw
things a little differently.
Police officers reported that they went to
Granville Towers around midnight Sunday
to quell a water fight between residents of
several floors.
They found approximately 300 persons
standing in the halls and stairwells of
Granville West, according to a police
spokesperson. Residents of Granville South
and East also were outside.
But, McGraw said, "1 must have been the
only person with any water. Lveryone else
heard that the police were coming and got rid
of their water. I guess."
He was taken to the police station for
questioning but was not charged with a
violation ol the Chapel Hill water ordinance.
Hubcaps stolen
A set ol hubcaps was stolen from a car
parked in the Morrison Residence Hall

Police reported.
James R. Atwood, 308 Beachwood St.,
Hope Mills, told police he left his car parked
in the lot at 1 1 p.m. Friday. When he
returned at 10 a.m. Saturday, he discovered
the hubcaps missing. Police have no suspects
in the ease.

"We also want black writers and
editors to sensitie their news to the
black community. We don't want them
just tearing copy off the AP wire and
putting it in the paper. Blacks can get
that from any daily.
"What we want them to do is to
examine the news to see how it affects
the black community specifically. If
black editors don't appeal to the black
community, then there will be no special
reason to read or buy their newspapers."
SBPI also is working with black
youths, helping students attain
internships with black newspapers.
They also are planning to have a
newspaper workshop for high school
students next summer at UNC.
SBPI is also looking for two interns
now and will be looking for five next
summer to help in its many projects.
