An act of Providence. A pain in the
neck. A great excuse for a party.
Whatever people called it, the five
inches of snow that fell Tuesday night in
Chapel Hill forced local citizens to cancel
or curtail activities for Wednesday.
Snow and ice closed some local roads
and created hazardous driving conditions
on others. Lt. Ben Callahan of the Chapel
Hill Police Department said at least six
wrecks, one injury and numerous fender
benders had been reported by 9:30 p.m.
Wednesday.
"People have been real good about it
though the best I've ever seen when it
snowed," Callahan said.
He said most people avoided driving or
found alternate times for traveling, which
prevented downtown congestion. He also
said those who haveto drive today should
put snow tires or chains on their cars and
avoid rush-hour traffic. .
Bus service, seriously cut in the
morning because of blocked roads, was
partially restored to all but the K. route by
noon Wednesday.
"We've been running on improvised
schedules," said Bert Gurganus,
operations superintendent for Chapel
Hill Transit. "We've had to re-route to
avoid hazardous conditions."
Gurganus said service today depends
on weather and road conditions. The
National Weather Service says there is a
10 percent chance of precipitation today,
increasing to 40 percent tonight.
"If the streets remain clear and there's
no more precipitation, we'll be all right,"
Gurganus said Wednesday.
Although Chapel Hill public schools
were closed, University students slid;
tramped, shuffled, climbed and even
skiied their way to class. Although no
official cancellations were announced by
the chancellor, many snowbound
instructors were forced to cancel classes.
Bad driving conditions and limited bus
service kept many students at home in
off-campus residences, although some
hardy souls trudged several miles to
campus to attend lectures or take tests.
Students took advantageof the situation,
launching snowball fights and
impromptu parties.
4 Drop, pass-fail
deadline Friday
The drop period and pass-fail
declaration date has been extended
until Friday by several schools
because of the snow.
General College, Arts and
Sciences, Business Administration
and Pharmacy schools announced
students will be allowed to drop
courses and sign up for pass-fail
until Friday.
Servomation Inc. was forced to close
Chase Cafeteria after breakfast because
of a shortage of employees. Student
Stores also shortened its hours and closed
at 3 p.m.
. Raleigh-Durham Airport was closed
from 6 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. Wednesday,
forcing cancellations and rerouting of
flights. Officials Wednesday afternoon
said more precipitation or heavy icing
could force the airport to close again

By PETE MITCHELL
Assistant Sports Editor
Maryland coacly Lefty Driesell has been
conducting experiments on Maryland basketball
teams for a long time now. Combining new elements,
stirring in different combinations, mixing up his
lineup and defenses and even his apparel for games to
test the control roup Dean Smith's Tar Heels.
But Driesell still hasn't found the right formula to
win at least, not for four years. The Tar Heels
whipped Maryland in Carmichael Auditorium
Wednesday night, 76-67, for the eighth straight time.
What does a Terrapin team have to do to come out
ahead in a game between the two?.
"It'll take a little luck I reckon," said Driesell, not
sounding quite like a scientist. "Just like they've had
against us."
For awhile it appeared he might have been on to
something with Terp guard Greg Manning coming
off the bench to dominate things offensively for
Maryland in the seond half. An. already close game
got tighter with 1 2 minutes left and the score tied at
49.
Sensing a breakthrough after four years of
frustration, Driesell called his team over for a time
out and fidgeted at charts and easels. He gave
individaul intructions as his hand firmly gripped
Albert King's knee. He motioned for advice from his
assistants and clapped his hands and pointed fingers.
The game got away, though, to the ejoyment of the
Camichael crowd. Five minutes later they screamed
s UNC went into four corners. And five minutes
after that, they were singing "Ah zigga zoomba,
zoomba, zoomba."
Round up the usual suspects.
Al Wood, 23 points; Mike O'Koren, 19 points,
seven rebounds, five assists; Ged Doiighton, a
flawless floor game pluc 4-of-5 from the field and 10
points. .
Dean Smith simply said, "I thought both teams
played better than they did in College Park (where
Carolina won in the final seconds, 54-53). And by the
way, how's the State-Not re Dame game going? Sorry
you guys had to cover this one."
On the contrary, it was much more interesting than
several recent Carolina games.
Two drives by O'Koren, looking like his old self,
vaulted Carolina into an early 10-4 lead. An assist by
O'Koren to John Virgil for a slam made it 14-6, and
DrieselFs face and head grew red as he shook a
rolled-up program at Paul Housman, the crowd and
several of his players, including Ernest Graham, the
long-range bomber who was having an off night.
Graham finished with just 10 points and took only
a handful of circus shots from the 25-foot range.
"And he turned it over about 15 times, it seemed
like," fumed Driesell afterward.
The Tar Heels were gambling on defense more
than usual in the first half, Smith said, and were
burned for easy dunks several times.
"They went through our zone in a hurry," he said.
"We went to man-to-man and started playing better.

...easy two against Terps
By CAROL HANNER
Staff Writer
John Temple, UNC vice chancellor for business
and finance, agreed Tuesday night to hold a work
session with Chapel Hill aldermen to discuss the
possibility of changing the controversial site of the
proposed athletic complex.
Alderman Ed Vickery suggested the town and
University discuss changing the site of the facility
from the Baity property off Mason Farm Road to
University land near Horace. Williams Airport.
The suggestion came during University officials'
presentatioa of UNC's five-year growth plan and an
explanation of its planning process.
In the past, the town and University often have
clashed on what and where UNC builds, particularly
on campus fringe areas near residential
neighborhoods. .
The athletic faciltiy, including an 18,000-seat
basketball arena, is the most recent issue to create
friction between the town and University.
The aldermen rezoned the1 Baity property from
residential to University use despite objections by
Mason Farm Road residents who feared an athletic
complex on the site would disrupt the neighborhood.
The Baity property site has not been approved by
ral Assembly or the UNC board of trustees.
..id he is willing to discuss a new site with the
town, but he said the University would want to retain
the right to decide where to build the facility.
The athletic complex is included in the five-year
plan which describes in detail the programs and
changes proposed by UNC for the period ending in
June 1983.
Temple said a major reason for past town-gown
conflicts over growth is the more than 20 state and
University departments which must grant approval
for a project.
"When we get down to approval by the board of
trustees, that's where we plug into the town's
process," Temple said. "But that's a long way down
the road."
Temple said he hopes the five-year plan will keep
the University informed of major projects well in
advance.
"We hope in the future we can just go to the town
informally if we have something coming up," Temple
said.
Alderman Robert Epting said he was encouraged
by the meeting of the two groups.
"It was an indication of the University's
willingness to discuss development with the town,"
Epting said. "It opened up the lines of
communication."
Alderman Ed Vickery said the meeting
represented a beginning for prevenintg conflict, but
he said he was slightly discouraged.
"I question whether the University is really
interested in a dialogue on planning," he said, "or are
they going to just occasionally meet in the Carolina
Inn and tell us what they are planning to do anyway?"
Temple and Gordon Rutherford, UNC planning
director, received little opposition from the aldermen
on most of the proposals which are not yet under
construction.
The following needs identified in the five-year plan
have not yet been approved by the General Assembly

A.d,co pulls out of 'race
o give, support to IHelly

Because of the similarity in their
platforms, Gorden Adcox said
Wednesday he has withdrawn from the
race for student . body president to
support candidate J.B.Kelly.
"I talked with Kelly and our platforms
are very close," Adcox said. "I will ask the
people that work for me to stand behind
Kelly in the election next week."
Adcox announced his intention to
withdraw from the race at an Elections
Board meeting Tuesday night. He had
been expected to appeal the boards
decision earlier this week to exclude his
name from the ballot.
The Elections Board said Adcox's
name would not appear on the ballot
because he failed to meet a 5 p.m. Sunday
deadline for turning in a petition with the
required 500 signatures.
The Elections Board ruling did not
affect his decision to withdraw, Adcox
said.
"I'm not withdrawing for any specific
reasons," he said. "My problems with the
Elections Board really didn't have much
bearing.
"I feel that although I had a good
platform, that because I am a sophomore
I don't have enough experience in
Student Government'.
"I feel that Kelly is a very viable
candidate because he has been involved in
Student Government since he was a
freshman. There's nothing better than
experience."
Adcox said his campaign staff will
switch its efforts to Kelly's campaign.
"We had planned . a telephone
campaign for Sunday, Monday and
Tuesday to call different people and
remind them to vote," he said. "We'll still
do that, but we'll do it or Kelly instead."
In other campaign developments,
student body president candidate Chris
Mackie said Wednesday that Kelly had
agreed to debate him in the Pit Monday.

A meet-the-candidates forum reached the
boiling point Tuesday night as , the three
candidates for Daily Tar Heel editor launched
into a heated debate over their respective
credentials. ; :
DTH candidates Allen Jernigan, David
Stacks and Rdid Tuvirri exchanged personal
accusations a'the Hinton James forum after a
member of the audience asked them to explain
their qualifications for the editor's job.
; The debate began after Jernigan said he was
best qualified because of his experience as
: DTH sufhmer editor during the second
summer J session. Tuvim, however, said
Jernigans summer experience was not
significant. -
Tuvirn charged that Jernigan was appointed
summer editor only because the original
appointee became ill and no other regular staff
members were available at the time to assume
the position. v
"Jernigan only put out three issues of the
. paper," Tuvim said.
Jernigan said the length of his tenure as
summer editor was irrelevant. "I was there the
whole summer," he said. "1 did a lot of work I
didn't get credit for.
"I feel that the summer editor job is the best
training ground for the DTH editor," he said.
"You not only have to deal with the paper, but
more importantly, with the public."
Tuvim also challenged Jernigan's
qualifications and performance as DTH
photography editor. Jernigan said that as
photography editor he had handled the largest
budget of any of the DTH editorial
departments.
"After Jernigan left as photography editor,"
Tuvim said, "the photography budget had to
be expanded to pay for equipment they
needed."
. No significant additions have been made to
the DTH photography budget since last
semester.
Stacks said he also questions Jernigan's
summer experience.
"As DTH state and national editor," Stacks
said, "I supervised a staff of 12 news writers. I
feel this qualifies me better than Jernigan, who
only had seven people on his entire (summer)
staff."
Jernigan said although there were only
seven summer staff members, he supervised a
larger number of contributing writers.
The debate ended when the original
question was withdrawn. The three candidates
said Wednesday they are disappointed the
exchange occured.
"It's unfortunate that it happened," Tuvim
said. "But it was something that was brewing,
and it just cams to a head.
"There's nothing wrong with a conflicting
discussion if it is constructive. That just wasn't
constructive." wv
Jernigan said he hopes the remaining
forums will go more smoothly.
"Everybody suffers when people start
making personal attacks," he said.
"Discussing ideas is one thing, but discussing
the personal integrity of candidates is not in
the vein of the election."
Stacks said the incident hurt all the
candidates. . ;
"What happened was not good for any of
us," he said. "It made all of us look bad. I hope
the three of us won't get into it again."
Few dorm residents attended either the
Parker or James forums Tuesday night.
Both candidates un? residents said lack of
publicity was the reason for the low turnout.
Additional forums are scncuuled at 7 p.m.
today in Connor and at 9 p.m. in the Granville
East basement. Forums will be held at 7 p.m.
Sunday in Ehringhaus and at 9 p.m. in
Morrison.
