6 The Daily Tar Heel Wednesday, January 11, 1978 Fee increase in effect The $2.50-per-semester increase in student activity fees that was approved by the student body last fall takes effect this semester. The UNC Board of Governors unanimously approved the fee hike on Dec. 5. The board's approval was the final step in the process of raising activity fees. With the increase, undergraduate students will pay $11.50 per semester and graduate students $9.50 per semester in activity fees. Of these fees, 33 percent is automatically channeled to the Carolina Union and 16 percent to the Daily Tar Heel. The remaining funds are allocated to student organizations by the Campus Governing Council. The fee increase could not have gone into effect this semester without a directive from Chancellor N. Ferebee Taylor postponing the tuition and fees billing date for two weeks. Taylor decided to delay the billing date after meeting with student leaders, including Student Body President Bill Moss, CGC Speaker Chip Cox, and Daily Tar Heel editor Greg Porter. IS;: Sub SfJ-.

"Chancellor Taylor was very helpful and able to postpone the billing he could've rejected it because it came up at the last minute, but he didn't. He was very open minded." - HOWARD TROXI.tR Burglars hit frats during the break Six UNC fraternity houses were broken into a! least one time during the Christmas holidays, according to Chapel Hill police.

William Geer, director of student aid, said that although $4 million was a lot of money, the University needed more for financial aid. "If the University is to fulfill its purpose of offering a good education to bright young citizens, it must have more funds to open its doors wider for the admission of those young people who are bright and ambitious but are accidentally poor," he said. - SUSAN LADD r TVS FEVER an i i M P RICHARD DREYRJSS MARSHA MASON Held Over Sorry No Passe 1 JOHN TRAVOLTA ATUnOYNIGHl 2:30 4:45 7:00 9:15 NO PASSES t H EAST FRANKLIN STREET h ill CL!EA5TODD, 2L BIGGEST SALE EVER!! most everything 50 off a V. i mm i mm- mm m m Opryland 78. with 13 fuDy-staged musical productions featuring over 350 singers, dancers, and other artists, offers tremendous opportunities to aspiring young talent.

Fercbcc Taylor received a letter Tuesday signed by 27 faculty members protesting the structure of a unionism and wage conference held Oct. 14 at UNC. The letter stated that the conference, sponsored by the UNC department of economics and funded by Burlington Industries, conveyed an impression that the University "opposes trade unionism in the state of North Carolina." In addition, the letter stated that a representative of the state's central labor body was denied recognition by the chair during the question-and-answer period. '"The reasoning behind the Tetter was that the conference was presumably called as an academic examination of unions in North Carolina," said Stephen L. Darwall, assistant professor in UNC's department of philosophy and one of the letter signers. "But the speakers were stacked against unions. "It is clear the department of economics decided unions were of dubious value for North Carolina and came out on the side of big business against unions." Joan W. Scott, professor in UNC's department of history, also signed the letter and said unionism needed to be thoroughly debated. "I was distrubed that it was one-sided," Scott said. "Burlington Industries used the University's aura of respectability for a one sided discussion." Darwall said the conference could be an unfortunate blow to the union movement in North Carolina. "For the major economic department in the state to believe that the state should not have unions could have unfortunate implications," he said. "In our view, working people are badly enough off without the University and Burlington Industries collaborating on a conference that purports to show the evils of unions in North Carolina," Darwall said. "North Carolina is 50th in union representation in the nation and 43rd or 44th in per capita income." Although Darwall said the letter did not include a protest against criticism by some state legislators of a proposed union program at North Carolina Central University in Durham, he feared the criticism might lead to a loss of funding. "We view it (the criticism) as part of the same attitude that would repress the right of workers to organize," he said. The focus of the NCCU program, supported by Gov. Jim Hunt, would be to train people who work with unions. "The NCCU program is a modest proposal, but it may die in the legislature because of hostility to unions," Darwall said. The proposal, which would establish a Center for Labor Education and Research at NCCU, is being considered by the planning committee of the UNC Board of Governors: TRY THE DTH CLASSIFIEDS. a ; AT THE WESTERN SIZZHN : 75 -No.i. 75p i ''net: Sizzlin jUrr RroiipH siri OFF? - -w vuiVill V j Baked Potato or ' French Fries !
