Can you imagine the Animal House
homecoming parade wreaking havoc on Frankin
Street, or John Belushi yelling "food fight" in the
Pine Room? According to a Universal Studios
executive, it nearly happened.
Universal's first-choice location for the smash
comedy was the UNC campus. Thorn Mount,
executive vice president of Universal Studios,
said Universal's interest in UNC for Animal
House typifies a surge of interest by Hollywood's
major studios in filming in North Carolina. The
state has formed the Office of Motion Picture
Development under the travel and tourism

There's been louder and longer
renditions of A Carolina Victory,
bigger games and better
performances by the Tar Heels at
home, but there wasn't any way to
spoil Mike O'Koren's Welcome Back
party Thrusday night in Carmichael
Auditorium against Wake Forest.
With four seconds left and the
Heels sixth ACC win already sealed,
the 10,000 roared their approval.
O'Koren waited at the foul line as
Deacon guard Frank Johnson
pestered him with small talk and then
pointed up toward the endzone
scoreboard. Johnson could only
watch as O'Koren sank both to give
Carolina a 76-69 win.
"Frank kept yappin at me saying
'Your're gonna miss, you're gonna
miss," O'Koren recalled. "1 guess 1
kind of lost my composure, but 1 just
had to tell him to look up at the
scoreboard. It's good to be back.
Ditto for Dave Colescott who
strapped on a pair of blue goggles to
protect his injured left eye and made
his first appearance since the Duke
game.
As the Tar Heels are learning, its
not as important to play great
basketball as it is to play just well
enough to win.
"I admit it," Dudley Bradley said
afterwards. "We were not up
emotionally tonight."
But the effort, especially in the
second half, was enough to avenge
UNC's only conference loss that at
Wake Forest two weeks ago and
boost its conference mark to 6-1 and
overall record to 15-2.
In typical Wake Forest fashion,
the Deacons nibbled here and snuck
up there to stay within range most of
the game. Ahead 58-53 Carolina was
forced into four corners with 4:46
left, having been unable to put the
visitors away.
Right away a foul was called on
center Jim Johnstone which upset
coach Carl Tacy. The Wake bench
reacted and referee Paul Housman
hit Tacy with a technical. Wood
stood at the line and swished four
straight to put the Tar Heels up by
nine.
"I've gotten tired of getting cheap
technicals," Tacy muttered.

Gordon Adcox, a sophomore political
science major from Fayetteville,
Thursday announced his candidacy for
student body president.
"The main thing I'd like to focus on is
the cost of books to the students," Adcox
said. "It is ridiculous."
Adcox proposed that the Student
Stores budget should be examined for
waste and excess profit.
"We want to see what can be done in
the way of trimming fat (in Student
Stores budget)," he said. Instead of
making a 32 percent profit, for instance, it
may be appropriate for the stores to make
only a 27 percent profit, he said.
"I'm tired of having to pay $100 for
books every semester," Adcox said.

"Universal's advance man contacted me, and 1

campus" said RTVMP professor William
Hardy. "Universal was very excited about
shooting the film here. 1 presented the notion to
the chancellor. 1 told him the material in the film
was racy, but no more than in most films." But
the chancellor's Administrative Council decided
the filming of Animal House would not be in the
best interest of the University. Instead, the
immensely popular comedy was filmed at the
University of-Oregon.

Gov. Jim Hunt met with Mount last December
to discuss the potential for filmmaking in the

potential and talk to film companies, but Hunt
said that a f ull-time, completely staffed office

Chris Mackie, a junior international
studies major from Andover, Mass.,
Thursday announced his candidacy for
student body president.
"I want to improve communications
between Suite C and the various campus
organizations," Mackie said.
Student Government should provide
explicit channels for organizations to
contact one another, he said. Mackie said
Student Government should make it
easier for groups to get together and work
on projects by acting as a liaison between
organizations.
"We would like to see Student
Government take an active part in
(working with) those programs they
fund," Mackie said.
More interaction between campus
organizations is something that brings
Gordon Adcox
he said.
Adcox has been involved in civic
organizations in Fayetteville and has
worked for several summers as a
researcher with the North Carolina
legislature. He is a member of Sigma Phi
Epsilon fraternity.
Lois Winstead, coordinator for the motion
picture development office, said funding for the
office, which was formed in August, was not
included in Hunt's proposed budget. It (the
office) is not fully staffed yet, she said.
"We're trying to get together a North Carolina
Film Directory," she said. The directory, a book
to be distributed by the Department of
Commerce, will list various areas of the state
where studios can find such services as caterers,
airports, equipment suppliers and other facilities
that could be needed during filming.
Gov. Hunt has estimated that a full-time film
office to accommodate the increased interest of
filmmakers would cost $150,000 to $200,000 a
year.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) The beleaguered Iranian
government on Thursday managed to keep its key
foe, Ayatullah Ruhollah Khomeini, out of the
country for at least three more days. But the angry
Moslem holy man rejected an appeal to put off his
triumphant homecoming for three weeks or more.
Prime Minister Shahpour Bakhtiar's government
also was given its biggest show of public support yet.
Tens of thousands of anti-Khomeini demonstrators
marched in Tehran, and similar pro-government
demonstrations .were reported in several other cities.
The official Pars news agency said one soldier was
killed and two civilians were wounded in violence
surrounding a pro-government protest at Sanandaj
in west Iran. Further details were unavailable.
There were reports of scattered violence elsewhere
between rival factions. Military authorities said 29
armed Afghanis were arrested Thursday during
clashes, in Tehran. The Bakhtiar government
contends Afghani communists have been instigating
disorders in the capital.
The 78-year-old Khomeini, leader of the
movement , that forced Shah Mohammad Reza
Pahlavi into an indefinite "vacation" abroad, had
planned to end almost 15 years of exile and fly back
to Iran Friday. But the Iranian military shut down
the country's airports, supposedly until midnight
Saturday, in what appeared to be an effort to block
his plan.
Tehran's airport was jammed Thursday morning
with thousands of bewildered passengers who had
not been aware of the shutdown order.
Khomeini, patriarch of Iran's 32 million Shiite
Moslems, says he intends to replace the Bakhtiar
government, appointed by the shah, with an Islamic
republic under his guidance.
It was announced at Khomeini's headquarters in
exile in France that he was postponing his return
until at least Sunday. If the airport shutdowns extend
beyond that, said Khomeini aide Ibrahim Yazdi,
there are "alternative plans" for getting to Iran. He
In race relations
Frat system

After three intensive sessions to examine race
relations in the UNC fraternity system, the consensus
of the lnterf rater nity Council committee discussing
the subject appears to be that while conditions are far
fr-om perfect, progress is being made.
IFC president Tom Terrell appointed the
committee in November 1978, "to make a systematic
inquiry into the status of the black fraternities on our
campus, and to address some of the frequently posed
questions concerning segregation and racism in the
fraternity system."
Committee members included Terrell, a member
of Chi Psi; Richard Blankenship, Beta Theta Pi;
Rodney Phillips. Chi Psi: Kenneth Hill, Alpha Phi
Alpha; Bucky Priester. Sigma Nu; Jesse Grissom,
Omega Osi Phi; Donell Jones, Omega Psi Phi; Joel
Murphy, Delta Kappa Epsilon; and Reuben

the campus closer together, Mackie said.
The Women's Festival held last year,
which was sponsored by the Association
for Women Students, several sororities,
and other campus organizations was.'a
good example of the kind of interaction
Student Government should be
encouraging, Mackie said.
Cooperation between Student
Government, the Carolina Union and the
Campus Y is especially important
because these are three of the largest
groups on campus, he said.
Mackie also said the administration
should be urged to deal with its problems
with the Department of , Health,
Education and Welfare. "Right now
HEW is a big problem," he said.
"We'd like to see the administration
take the initiative by being the first to
make the advances that have to be made
to keep this institution from being run
into disorder from the outside," Mackie
"Georgia is investing about the same amount,"
Hunt said. "And they are doing about $75
million a year in films that's the income to
Georgia. The typical film costs $5 or $6 million,
and about $4 million of that will be spent in the
state where the film is shot.
"They'll come in for 10 weeks and take 150
motel rooms, plus meals and the fees for the use
of locations. It could be just one tremendous
business opportunity for our state, and it has
probably the highest return on investment of
anything I know of," Hunt concluded.
Georgia, in which the entire film Smoky and
the Bandit was shot, is the filmmaking capital of
the South.
would not elaborate.
"The treacherous, illegal government has
prevented my return," Khomeini told a group of
followers in a speech Thursday in France.
"But I will go back immediately after the airport is
opened. I will show Bakhtiar that his government is a
transgressor and will not be tolerated."
Bakhtiar had sent Khomeini a letter warning of
"various intrigues" endangering the ayatullah's
return, presumably an allusion to military men
opposed to the abolition of the monarchy.
The letter from Bakhtiar, broadcast on state radio,
asked Khomeini to give the government time "to
please and calm down the army." Sources close to the
prime minister said he also asked in a section not
read on radio that Khomeini delay his return for at
least three weeks.
In France, a spokesman said Khomeini had read
the letter, found nothing new in it and ordered the
Bakhtiar envoy to leave.
Some senior government sources contended
Khomeini had acceded to Bakhtiar's request for a
delay and that the airport closings were really a face
saving device to give Khomeini an excuse for putting
off his return.
But members of a Tehran committee planning the
welcome for Khomeini accused the government of
scheming to keep the religious leader out.
Khomeini called on his followers to maintain
calm, tranquility and order. Asked by reporters
whether he would call for a holy war against
Bakhtiar, he said, "Not at the moment."
A priest on the Tehran committee, Mohammad
Motradeh, said Khomeini has allowed some
negotiations to start with senior members of the
army. The rank and identities of the officers involved
were not revealed. '
Khomeini must persuade the army to at least
remain neutral, if he is to succeed in reshaping the
Iranian political system. The army denies it is
negotiating with the religious leader.

In December, committee members exchanged
information' and discussed the relationship of IFC to
the predominantly black fraternities. "We had to
serve all of our members, and we were not meeting
the needs we were obviously not meeting the
needs of our three black fraternities," Terrell said.
UNC has had black fraternities in the system only
since 1973. All three- Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa
Alpha Psi and Omega Psi Phi are official, dues
paying members of the Interfraternity Council.
IFC's traditional direction toward the
predominantly white fraternities was a major area of
concern for Grissom, and Hill. Hill cited an IFC
meeting in the past devoted to the care and
maintenence of houses. Black fraternities
traditionally do not have houses, a fact-thet-Grissom.

UNC also should comply with Title IX

athletic department to expand women's
athletics.
