Arafat meets vnth Iranian leaders
TEHRAN, Iran(AP) A buoyant Yasser Arafat met with Iran's provisional
leaders Sunday and said the Iranian revolution has turned the strategic balance
in the Middle East "upside down."
Aides to Iran's new government, meanwhile, predicted executions of more
officials of the toppled shah's regime.
Arafat won assurances from Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini that Iran will
"turn to the issue of victory over Israel," after the nation consolidates its
strength, Tehran Radio reported.
Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organization played a major role in training
Iranian guerrillas who fought the imperial troops of Shah Mohammad Reza
Pahlavi, who was forced to leave the country last month. The government he
named to rule in his absence fell Feb. 1 1.
Khomeini's secret Islamic court continued scraping together officials of the
old regime and aides to the Moslem leader predicted more executions would
take place.
Four top generals were executed by a firing squad last week. About 400
figures of the old government are under arrest, sources report.
Meanwhile, 794 Americans landed in Frankfurt, West Germany, late
Sunday in the second day of the four-day evacuation of about 5,000 U.S.
citizens from Tehran.
Body of slain envoy returned to U.S.
WASHINGTON (AP) The body of slain Ambassador Adolph Dubs was
returned to the United States on Sunday and met by President Carter, who
expressed "sadness and outrage" at Dubs' killing in Afghanistan last week.
"We condemn those who would participate in such a despicable act of
violence," Carter said. He said he was outraged "at the senseless terrorism of
those who pay inadequate value to human life."
Secretary of State Cyrus Vance, also at the ceremony, said, "We will fight
terrorism with all our resolve and resources."
Dubs, 58, was shot to death last Wednesday in a gun battle between police
and four terrorists who had kidnapped him in Kabul. He was the fifth U.S.
ambassador killed in the line of duty in just over a decade.
His body was returned to Andrews Air Force Base near Washington on an
Air Force jet dispatched by the president. The flag-draped coffin was greeted by
a 19-gun salute, and a military band played "Ruffles and Flourishes."
Vance presented the Secretary's Award, the State Department's highest
honor, to Dubs' widow in the slain ambassador's name. Mary Ann Dubs, who
held the president's arm during the ceremony, stepped to the microphone to
thank Vance, but could only say "Mr. Secretary, before breaking down in
tears.
New Orleans glum; Mardi Gras threatened
NEW ORLEANS (AP) The police union dared the mayor Sunday to fire
police strikers, saying such action would immediately send garbage collectors
and firemen into a sympathy walkout. ---
The strike has already forced the mayor to cancel several Mardi Gras
carnival parades, and the city was glum Sunday usually a day for celebration
during the festival.
"The next move is up to the mayor," said union president Vincent Bruno.
"He makes that mistake, we go to war."
Bruno, standing atop a parked police car and using a bullhorn, spoke to 600
who attended a police rally behind police headquarters.
His remarks came only hours after Mayor Ernest Morial stepped out of
historic St. Louis Cathedral in the French Quarter and announced a 24-hour
amnesty period for strikers who return to work.
The mayor did not say what might happen to those who fail to return. In
earlier statements, he said mass firings were being considered.
"The first policeman he fires, sanitation goes out, then firemen," Bruno told
the crowd. "1 dare him to fire the first police officer."
Both the Police Association of Louisiana and the sanitation workers are
affiliated with the Teamsters Union.
dash not likely to become world crisis
WASHINGTON (AP) U.S. officials, working with intelligency reports
described as "quite good," said Sunday they had no evidence to indicate China
planned to overrun Vietnam.
Although one well-informed senior official said it was impossible to
determine when Peking would halt its invasion of its southern neighbor, it was
felt the Chinese-Vietnamese fighting is not likely to develop into a major
worldwide crisis.
Despite Moscow's sharp warning to Peking that Chinese troops pull back
before "it is too late," U.S. officials see no evidence that possible Soviet
involvement in the Chinese-Vietnamese fighting could threaten the United
States' immediate interests.
With the U nited States considered the only global power in a position to talk
effectively with both Peking and Moscow, U.S. officials have contacted the
Soviet Union and China.
A senior White House official who asked not to be identified by name said
the United States used these contacts to express its concern about a wider war.

It snowed. Again.
And with or without students, classes
will be held today as usual. Chancellor N.
Ferebee Taylor said Sunday.
Sunday evening the National Weather
Service called for a minimum of 10 inches
of snow before it was to stop early this
morning. Temperatures were expected to
dip to 10 degrees Sunday night.
For off-campus students. Chapel Hill
police advise staying at home because of
hazardqus road conditions. Although
police reported only one minor accident
by Sunday afternoon, billowing snow
made it difficult for town trucks and
graders to clear major roads. Public
Works Director Harold Harris said:
"If it were a heavier snow, it would be
easier to plow," Harris said. "This kind
packs up on the radiator and overheats
the plow."
Despite the fluffy quality of the snow,
police warned motorists to avoid driving.
"1 was surprised at how many people
got out just to see if they can make it,"
Police Officer Rick Smith said. "If you
don't have to go out, stay at home."
Harris said five trucks and one grader
will concentrate on clearing Franklin and
Columbia streets, with other hilly areas
their next priority. He advised motorists
to avoid Hillsborough Street especially.
If you don't want to dig your car out to
drive, buses wll be operating with as
much service as conditions allow.
Transportation Director Bob Godding
said Sunday.
He said no specific routes are closed yet
and radio stations will announce bus
schedules.
At Raleigh-Durham Airport, all flights
were canceled Sunday until two hours
after precipitation stopped, a spokesman
said.
On- campus. University grounds
workers worked Sunday to clear the
emergency hospital entrance and the S-6
and Swain Hall parking lots. Eight
tractor-graders were scheduled to clear
campus paths, Cameron Avenue and
Country Club Road as soon as possible.
In addition to transportation
problems, students may run into
difficulty finding food service on campus.
The three Pine Room managers said they
would be at work today, but they were
not sure whether any employees would be
at work.
Chase Cafeteria and the Union Snack
Bar were closed Sunday, but no
information was available on whether
they would be open today.
The Undergraduate and Wilson
libraries were also closed Sunday.
Duke Power Co. officials reported
scattered electrical outages at 250 South
Estes condominiums, the Cedar Hills
subdivision off Piney Mount Road and
the Northwest subdivision off N.C. 86.
The snow is expected to clear Monday
with the high in the middle to upper 30s
and a 10 percent probability of
precipitation.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back outside
...snow that finally melted Thursday returned Sunday
TOKYO (AP) Chinese warplanes
bombed factories, power plants and
communications facilities in northern
Vietnam Sunday, inflicting "terrible
damage" and causing many civilian
casualties. Radio Hanoi reported.
An air raid alert was ordered in Hanoi,
80 miles from the Chinese border. Japan's
Kyodo news agency reported, but
Vietnam's radio said the capital was calm
and that hundreds of thousands of
Vietnamese held a rally to denounce the
invasion. Chinese forces crossed the
border Saturday along a 450-mile front.
Radio Hanoi said Vietnamese troops
had killed about 250 Chinese anf
destroyed or damaged 46 tanks in fierce
battles in Vietnam's northern provinces.
It said the Chinese had occupied 1 1 tow ns
and villages in all five border provinces
Cao Bang, Lang Son, Hoang Lien Sonn,
Lai Chau and Quang Ninh.
The Soviet Union warned China to
withdraw its troops "before it is too late"
and said it would "honor its obligations"
to Hanoi under a treaty of friendship and
cooperation signed last year.
"All responsibility for the
consequences of continuing aggression
by Peking.. .will be borne by the present
Chinese leadership." the official Soviet
news agency Tass said.
But the announcement seemed to
indicate Moscow would not intervene, at
least for the present. It said: "The heroic
Vietnamese people, which has become
the victim of fresh aggression, is capable
of standing up for itself this time again."
Tass said China sent "many infantry
divisions" backed by tanks and artillery
into Vietnam and that the Chinese were
"barbarously shelling border town" and
committing "brutal crimes ...resulting in
enormous material damage and human
casualties."
The claims could not be independently
verified.
The number of Chinese troops in
Vietnam was not known. U.S. military
analysts said the Chinese had amassed
about 120.000 troops along the border,
while the Vietnamese have some 50.000
soldiers deployed in an arc north of
Hanoi. The Vietnamese apparently set up
their first line of defense well back from
the Chinese border with a screen of
outposts closer to the frontier.
Much of Vietnam's 600.000-man army
is believed to be in southern Vietnam.
About -100.000 Vietnamese troops that
took part in the offensive that ousted the
Chinese-backed Cambodian government
and replaced it with a regime supported
by Hanoi reportedly are still in
Cambodia.
A large portion of China's estimated
3.3 million-man army reportedly is
stationed along its 5.000-mile long border
with the Soviet Union.
The Vietnam News Agency said
Chinese troops, tanks and planes drove
up to six miles into Vietnam, attacking at
least one provincial capital and
occupying Vietnamese border posts and
villages along the length of the front.
Vietnam said earlier the Chinese had
penetrated as deep as 30 miles into
Vietnam but the discrepancy was not
explained Sunday.
Peking said it launched the
"counterattack" in retaliation for
repeated "armed incursions" by
Vietnamese forces into China. Peking's
official Hsinhua news agency said
Chinese forces would return to the
frontier "after hitting back at the
aggressors as far as is necessary."
Intelligence sources in Bangkok said
the Chinese attack was expected to be
"short, sharp and brutal" but that they

Bid calls for 10 to
24 p
erceiit tuition hikes
By KATHY CURRY
and EDDIE MARKS
Staff Writers
A proposal . submitted last week by a legislative
subcommittee would raise tuition in the UNC system by
10 percent for in-state students and 24 percent for out-of-state
students.
UNC-CH students currently pay $364 in-state and
$2,074 out-of-state tuition per year. The proposed
increase would raise the current total expenses (tuition,
fees, room and board) for in-state students to $2,1 19 a
year a $36 increase. Out-of-state students' total
expenses would increase to $4,291 a $500 jump.
The subcommittee also recommended rejection of
money allocated to the !6-campus university system for
recruitment of out-of-state athletes and graduate
students. Currently some athletes and graduate students
receive grants and scholarships that make up the
difference between in-state and out-of-state tuition.
UNC President William C. Friday said Friday he
opposed any hike, and said the proposal to dock funds
for athletes and graduate students would be a blow to
research as well as athletics.
"I have worked very hard to make the system open to
all students," Friday said. "If the University ever reached
the point where young people who can't afford the
tuition don't even try to come here, we have ceased in our
reason for being.
"I think we ought to comply with the constitutional
mandate that North Carolinians should all be able to
attend a state school. If we enact such an increase we
would severely handicap our own students."
Friday also warned the proposed increases could have
a detrimental effect on University negotiations with the
HEW Office of Civil Rights.
"An increase would inevitably affect the recruitment
of minority students by affecting the numbers of
applicants to our student aid office,"he said.
About 60 percent of students attending UNC-CH
receive some form of financial id. Thomas Langston,
associate director of the student aid office, said the office
already had to adjust the number of awards made each
year for inflation.
The subcommittee recommendations will travel to a
joint House-Senate education appropriations
committee for approval. Rep. Trish Hunt, D-Orange,a
member of the House committee, said she was disturbed
about the subcommittee's actions.
. "I am especially concerned that they aren't looking at
the whole cost students face, like fees and other
she
inflationary increases in dorm rents and the like
said.
But Hunt conceded there will be some trouble for
opponents of the tuition hike in her committee. The
committee chairman. Hart well Campbell of Wilson,
said he favors a tuition hike and proposed a similar bill
earlier.
Athletic director Bill Cobey also expressed his
disapproval of the proposal to cut funds to athletes and
graduate students, and said the programs should be
increased instead of cut. Cobey said UNC would not be
able to recruit the best athletes for women's athletic
programs and men's sports other than football and
basketball.
"Particularly in sports like men's lacrosse and golf,
and women's sw imming and tennis, we can recruit some
of the best, but we have to have help to get them to come
here," Cobey said. "You can then attract the best
coaches and the best professors with exceptional
graduate students."
At a Faculty Council meeting Friday afternoon.
Chancellor N. Ferebee Taylor said the proposed tuition
hikes and cut in the tuition-remissions budget would
impair UNC's ability to compete with other universities
across the country.
Meek squelch Cuvaliers? 66-57? to tie Duke
By LEE PACE
Spurts Editor
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Rich Yonakor had
just given the basketball to Virginia after being selfish
with it, Dave Colescott had just given the basketball to
Virginia after bouncing it with two hands, and vou'd
have thought the noisy people in University Hall
would have altered their cheers a little.
After all, seeing their revered Cavaliers score four
straight points courtesy miscues in UNCs four
corners could have been anything but BORING, as
several thousand students insisted in unison during a
span midway through the second half Saturday night..
And the reference to the oral activities of the Tar
Heels one would assume the fans were referring to
popsicles or lollipops, if you can take a hint didn't
seem quite appropriate, either, considering that for a
couple of minutes the Tar Heels were doing everything in
their power to see that they did not move into a tie with
Duke for the ACC lead.
But Dudley Bradley wasn't amused by all of this and
didn't think it appropriate that he and fellow seniors Ged
Doughton and Randy Wiel should ever lose in
Charlottesville. So with 8:3 1 remaining and the score
tied at 44, Bradley took a pass from Colescott, lifted off
from just past the foul line, collided with Steve
Castellan's elbow and slammed an absolutely brutal
dunk into the rim, net and nearly through the floor. "1
knew there were two guys near me, so I had to add
pressure to the dunk to make sure it wasn't blocked,"
Box score on page 3
Bradley said later, holding an ice bag to the bump levied
by Castellan.
"That was the turning point," Mike O'Koren said.
"That's what won it." That gave Carolina a 4644 lead
that it never gave up. thanks in part to excellent piay by
O'Koren, Colescott and Doughton in running the tour
" corners and also to some lousy Virginia passing and
shooting in the final minutes.
4With a backcourt as young as ours, you're going to
make some mistakes," Cavalier forward Mike Owens
said. "We were just too eager and turned it over too
often. It just came at a bad time."
So by the time the Tar Heels had built a 61-55 lead on
eight free throws with less than a minute to play and
Terry Gates had clobbered Al Wood while Wood was
making a disgustingly easy dunk the Tar Heel
sophomore had tired at that point of swishing 18
footers the Cavalier fans had taken up another cheer.
Nineteen seconds remained when Wood stepped to the
foul line and was met with a deafening reference to his
anatomy midway between his knees and middle back.
Wood responded with an up yours of sorts ball up,
through your basket.
And everyone talks about the tackiness in Durham.
"I just block the fans out of my mind,"Wood said.
"You can't worry about what they're yelling," O'Koren
said. "When the fans act like that it makes you want to
beat them even more and send them away mad."
They did go away mad Terry Holland, Jeff Lamp, et
al. The only yelling from then on came from O'Koren,
Wood and their mates. A 66-57 win over a team playing
as well as Virginia has lately was well worth a little
elation.
"We felt this was our most important game of the
season, and we prepared for it emotionally like it was the
NCAA finals," O'Koren said. And the Tar Heels played
like it, particularly on defense. Lamp, the ACC's leading
scorer, had a typical 21 -point, 8-for-I8 shooting
performance, but Lee Raker was held to 5-for-14.
Together, Lamp and Raker scored only 13 second-half
points.
"We knew we didn't play that good of defense the tirst
half," said Colescott, who finished with four steals.
"Lamp and Raker are great scorers, so we knew we'd all
have to help out on them. We weren't sprinting back on
defense early, so we made up our minds to go after them
in the second half."
O'Koren made three steals and blocked four shots,
one of them on Lamp with 2:18 to play and Carolina
ahead 51-46. "Lamp iad been getting open behind our
zone, but that time 1 just wasn't going to let him get the
shot off." O'Koren said. "It was a clean block."
So now the Tar Heels are 8-2, the same as Duke after
the Blue Devils lost 70-68 Friday at College Park, Md.,
and 20-4 overall, making it Carolina's ninth consecutive
20-win season, with games left this week against State
Thursday and Duke Saturday. "We control our own
destiny," Doughton said.
