2 Tha Daily Tar Heel Monday, March 26, 1979 sw Don So'Self lOiomeini denounces Mideast pact TEHRAN, Iran (AP) Iran's Moslem patriarch, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, denounced the LJS.-sponsored Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty Sunday as increasing "the dangers that have always been posed by Israel in the. region. The 78-year-old Khomeini, who inspired the revolt that toDDled Shah Mohammad Reza Phlavi's monarchy said in a major foreign policy statement broadcast by Iran radio that the bilateral Egyptian-Israeli treay "is against the interests of the Arab world He said Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, by agreeing to the pact, "has made his connection to the U.S. imperialist government more obvious." Kissinger skeptical about SALT treaty WASHINGTON (AP Former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger said Sunday prospects for Senate ratification of an arms limitation treaty are dim now, but that the Carter administration still can win congressional approval. "Right now, 1 think it looks shaky," Kissinger said. "But the administration, with a determined effort, can make it much closer and perhaps prevail." Kissinger, who was secretary of state in the administration of former President Richard M . N ixon and Gerald R. Ford, declined to take a position on ' whether the SALT treaty should be ratified, saying he has not seen a text of the proposed agreement. Kissinger said his principal concerns were about the ability of the United States to retain its credibility as a world power in the 1980s. Meanwhile, the Communist Party newspaper Pravda on Sunday accused American "enemies" of a new strategic arms limitation treaty of trying to "choke the newborn baby in its cradle" by blocking Senate ratification. Invading troops push into Uganda NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) Invading Tanzanian troops and Ugandan rebels were reported to have pushed to within 20 miles of the Ugandan capital of Kampala on Sunday. President Idi Amin's government clamped a curfew on the city and closed Uganda's only international airport. The Ugandan government radio admitted the Tanzanian-led force had "penetrated deep into Uganda." The broadcast, monitored in Nairobi, said the government had shut down Entebbe Airport, 20 miles south of Kampala, and ordered a nighttime curfew in Kampala. "Anyone violating Ugandan air space will be shot down without warning," the broadcast said. House passes voter challenge bill The House last week passed a bill sponsored by Rep. Trish Hunt of Chapel Hill that would prevent massive voter challenges similar to those presented in Orange County last year. The bill shifts the burden of proof to the challenger, requiring the challenger to show probable cause that a person is illegally registered. The measure also states the challenger must appear at an elections board hearing for each challenge made. The previous law did not require the challenger to attend the challenge hearings. Orange County manager arrested Orange County Manager Samuel M. Gattis was arrested Thursday and charged with three misdemeanor counts of using county garage services and auto parts to repair his personal car. The charges were filed after the State Bureau of Investigation probed practices at the Orange County garage. Charles B. Ritch, a mechanic at the garage, also was arrested on a similar charge. Both could receive sentences of six months in prison, a $500 fine, or both on each charge.

' Staff Writer Isolation from each other and the outside world helped the Rev. Jim. I ones lead more than 900 persons to their deaths at the People's Temple in Jonestown. Guyana, medical sociologist Rose Laub Coser told a UNC audience last week. Coser spoke Thursday night in Manning Hall to about 175 persons at the Doris Selo Memorial Lecture, sponsored. by the department of sociology. Coser. a professor of sociology and community medicine at the State University of New York at Stoneybrook, was introduced as being "interested in social structure, particularly the social structure of the family and the social structure of communes." The Jonestown tragedy was "unique in one way that for 20 days, the horror story of Nov. 1 8 made front page news in the New York Times,"' Coser said. In less than five hours, 911 adults and children were killed or commited suicide, Coser saiJ. There was no threat on their lives from the outside "except for the demented statements of their leader," she said. Those who joined the People's Temple and participated in the mass suicide came from every walk of life. "They were the poor, the rich, the ones in the middle," Coser said. Their numbers ranged from lawyers to convicts and included "those with a strong social conscience." Coser said. But their biographical sketches actually tell us little about the people involved. "At best, they can tell us who obeyed Jim Jones." Coser said. As a child, Jones would kill animals and then'say a mass for their death. His mother predicted he would be a messiah, Coser said. The Jonestown community was isolated by design, Coser said. "It operated in secrecy. Its confined members had to break all ties with the outside. This prevented reality-testing. "Jonestown's members had no place to go," she said. "Isolated from exchanges and any but mimimal contact with the outside, Jonestown's members had no place to go, except to one man " This man, whom the members called Dad, formed an almost incestuous community, Coser said. He had sexual relations with men and women and bragged to his lawyer that the number reached 16 per day at some points. The members developed what Coser termed an "infantile dependency" on Jones. This dependency was emphasized by .Jonestown's almost complete isolation. The only way to reach Jonestown is by air or by a long boat trip. "There was hardly any contact with the outside for the rank and file members," Coser said. To add to the isolation, the community was operated almost like a concentration camp, Coser said. There were guards at the church and dogs at the fences. Members were beaten and tortured. "The individual had to submit to humiliation, physically and psychologically. It reminds us of processes which took place in concentration camps." Because ol punishment and lack of personal relationships, members often regressed to childhood and lost any idea of the sequence of time. "Nobody could trust anybody." Coser said. Jones would conduct catharsis sessions which involved an outpouring of emotions by all members except for the elderly, who were excused. But Jonestown, "perverse as it was, contained the species of the genius of the Utopian community," Coser said. Members included the "socially committed and the morally courageous and those yearning for a new morality," she said. As with other communes, Jonestown tended to be regulated from above. "It ended in total personality absorption." When people arrived at Jonestown, their money and passports were confiscated, Coser said. People would sell life insurance policies and give the money to the temple. "It became a problem merely to dispose of the wealth that had piled up." But Coser said that "emotional energies cannot simply be rechannejed for the common, or not so common, good. When people are cut off from personal relationships, they have no energy to channel, even in time of terror." Coser said the members must have felt dead inside. "The damned and the lost and the hopeful who flocked to Jones did so because the society had failed to provide meaningful bonds. For years he gave them opium. In the end, he gave them cyanide." Ibartencisr From page 1 to mix all the common drinks. And, after two weeks, you know how to mix most anything." Patterson said he has seen very few drunks or fights since working at Spanky's. However, petty theft can be a problem, he said. "In Spanky's. 150 to 160 glasses disappear each month. I have to keep Jabs on all stolen merchandise and order more if need be." he said. In addition to keeping utensil inventories, Patterson maintains a liquor inventory, orders liquor each week, cleans the bar one last time when the restaurant finally closes at 1:30 a.m.. call counts the day's tips, deposits the money made each day and takes care of a large amount of bar equipment. On a typical day, Patterson does not leave Spanky's until almost 4 a.m. As Patterson said, "The life of a bartender is not an easy one, especially if he or she is the bar manager. "But. if I keep a sharp wit and am as tolerant as I can be, my job is much more pleasant and the day goes a lot faster. Appreciation goes - two ways. If I appreciate my customers and show them 1 care, then they'll be much more likely to appreciate me and respect my work." From page 1 Friday said he didn't know when H E W would contact him next, but said it would probably be some time this week. In other developments, the Rev. W.W. Finlator, a North Carolina civil rights leader, urged President Carter to cut off funds to the university svstem. The request by Finolator, who is chairman of the N.C. Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civ il Rights, came in a telegram to Carter Friday. Finolator said the funds should be cut off because UNC has not come up with an acceptable desegregation plan. General Assembly gets proposal to reduce pot-possession penalty RALEIGH (AP) A proposal to reduce penalties for possession of up to a pound of marijuana and for growing small amounts of the illegal weed has been filed in the General Assembly. Rep. Al Adams, D-Wake, who successfully sponsored a 1 977 law that reduced penalties for possessing;an ounee of pot; filed the new bilt lfof'5 fbrmal introduction last Monday. The new measure would make it a misdemeanor to possess ' less than a pound of the substance. Under current law, possession of more than an ounce is a felony. Also under Adams' bill, a person could grow up to 20 marijuana plants and be subject only to misdemeanor prosecution, instead of the current felonies of marijuana manufacture or possession with intent to sell. The proposals have been recommended by district attorneys from around the state, Adams said. "1 don't look at this at all as a loosening of the marijuana laws," Adams said. "The district attorneys are not known for loosening criminal Jaws. It's their bill." Under the bill, the penalty for possession of more than an ounce but less than a pound would be a maximum $2,000 fine and two years in prison. For less than an ounce, the maximum penalty would remain a $100 fine and 30 days in jail. It would add the provision, however, that the sentence could be suspended only after the fine and court costs had been paid. The bill would correct a problem created by his 1977 measure, Adams said, by establishing a middle-ground sentence. 'It sets up an intermediate offense," he said. "Now you've got a gap from a $100 fine for less than an ounce, and the next step is a five-year felony." The provision for growing marijuana plants would also allow the courts to make a distinction between casual growers and big-time producers, he said. "You have kids caught with five, or six plants in a Dixie Cup in their kitchen window, and under the present law that's either a 1 0-year or a five-year felony," he said.

Sonya Lewis was chosen Student Affairs Committee chairperson and Reggie Gillespie was elected Rules and Judiciary Committee chairperson. In other business, CGC approved Student Body President J.B. Kelly's appointments of Susan Treece as treasurer. Gary Jones as attorney general and Allen Patterson as CGC minority representative. Patterson was chosen due to a rule stating that if two minority representatives are not' elected, the student body president has the authority to appoint one. Black said. The 4th U.C. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the rule constitutes reverse discrimination, but the University may appeal the case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Issues to be dealt with the remainder of the semester include budget appropriations and defining the responsibilities of the Rules and Judiciary and Student Affairs committees. Black said. All student organizations should send in budget requests for funds by 3 p.m. March 30, Black said. Request forms are available in Suite C for organizations which did not receive them in the mail.
