By TONY MACE Sun Writer The Committee on Educational Programs of the UNC Board of Governors Thursday reversed itself and voted 9-1 to scrap plans for the proposed Center for Labor Education and Research at N.C. Central University in Durham. "I'm very disappointed," NCCU Chancellor Albert Whiting said. "1 had hoped we had garnered more support from members of the committee. We're really at a loss." State AFL-CIO President Wilbur Hobby attacked the committee's decision. "It's a real indictment of this state to allow academic freedom to be stifled by the corporate heads who not only run the corporations but evidently the University and state government," Hobby said. , Gov. Jim Hunt called the decision a mistake. But he said he has not considered reviving the project. The center would have offered short ' Aniff iistine ::; : resigns irom town office Joseph Augustine has x resigned as executive director of the Chapel H ill Cart boro Chamber of Commerce and the Merchants Association. He is leaving to become executive vice president of the Greater Wilmington Chamber of . Commerce. Augustine, a 33-year resident of Chapel Hill, will begin his new job in early October. Augustine founded the Chamber of Commerce in 1963 and began directing the Merchants Association that same year. Augustine has a bachelor's and a master's degree in education from UNC. Public water systems fail to meet regulations Three public water systems in Chapel Hill have failed to meet safe drinking regulations because not enough water samples were sent to the Environmental Protection Agency for analysis.

Some 290 water systems in 146 areas of the state also have failed to send in at least one water sample for each 1,000 persons served by the systems. Public water systems are required to test their water each month for coliform bacteria contamination and send the results to the EPA.

There's more in the courses in topics such as occupational safety and health, economics, labor history and communications skills. It also would have housed a 'program of continuing labor research. The planning committee approved the labor center in October, but agreed to reconsider its decision in the wake of heavy criticism from textile and furniture manufactures. Committee members Thursday ; rejected a compromise proposal by UNC' President William C. Friday to grant the labor center a provisional charter until 1979. In a last minute plea, Friday said the University system traditionally has rendered service to the state's professional groups. He called the labor center a legitimate response by the University to the needs of North Carolina working people. Friday said the programs of -the proposed labor center "would not advocate any point of view in the labor management relationship. "It is an education and service program that would remain exclusively under the liMBC";.""': V V Joseph Augustine blooded animals. Its presence may indicate water contamination. Federal regulations also require water systems to notify customers and the public in writing and in newspaper ads if water analysis shows high coliform count. ATs$ ; theWification must include an done to solve the problem. If the water system serves 15 or more connections or 25 persons on a year round basis, it is subject to EPA regulations. This includes municipalities, sanitary districts, metropolitan water districts, water associations, subdivisions, mobile home, parks, apartment complexes and industrial villages, according to Sarah Morrow, secretary of the Department of Human Resources in Raleigh. - ,Q I "' r J v. r n 1 1 UJ Q-l I 1 control of the NCCU faculty, the chancellor, trustees, the Board of Governors and my office," Friday said. "Almost from its inception this project has been misunderstood," the president said. "Chancellor Whiting's interest and mine has been in using the labor center in teaching academic skills." , : . Harley Shuford of Hickory, a member of the planning committee and president of Century Furniture Co., countered by saying the best efforts of Friday and other University officials could . not prevent cooptation df the labor center by union organizers. "Neither I nor the business community is opposed to programs which benefit the working people of the state." Shuford said. "But our concenv is that the labor center will benefit only those involved in a union: "You may not think the center would become involved in union activities," Srvuford said. "But I assure you the union officials of this state think it would. "Everybody on this board knows the center was instigated by the head of the AFL-CIO, because he felt like it would benefit the union," Shuford said. George Watts Hill of Durham cast the sole vote in favor of the project. He said his vote came in protest to the concerted, mail campaign directed at committee Commissioners postpone extension of town limits The Orange County Board of Commissioners voted last week not to extend the Chapel Hill planning district but to delay action until the county planning board meets Sept. 18. Commissioner Don Wilhoit requested the Town of Chapel Hill undergo a limited expansion of its planning district. A major issue in the expansion is how much the Town of Chapel Hill will grow outside present boundaries. "I'made the request because it was clear from the discussion Tuesday morning that the majority of the board was in favor of the extension," Wilhoit said. Wilhoit requested a first phase of extension which would stretch 300 feet , west of New Highway 86 and 300 feet' north of Weaver Dairy Road. suriiiteogoiaDe ! fnnirTTrfg,wa J"?

Former committee chairperson William Dees of Goldsboro said he voted agaist the proposal because programs of the labor center could be offered as short term adult education courses at community colleges and universities around the state. "I don't think that the union thing is a serious concern," Dees said. After Wilhoit made his request. county attorney Geoffrey Gledhill said that all proposals must go to the planning board first for recommendation. Wilhoit then dropped his first request and asked that the motion be put on the agenda for the commissioners' first meeting in October. "We have been two years in the process of making the developers wait; I guess two more months will not be a big deal," Wilhoit said at the mteting. The planning extention debate also involves a question about the location of mobile homes in'the county. ' "If people want an area to be exclusive with no mobile homes, then they can do this through restrictive covenants of subdivision, instead of zoning laws," Wilhoit said. anna m i r; n rprl wrl TTn c7 V C " l Mllllll I Who needs.a parking permit when we ve got the bus9 Even though I live out at Foxcroft.
