Chapel Hill a haveii for ybuiEig and oM"

Look at the faces around you. In Chapel Hill,
they're young faces, 1 8 to 24-year-old faces. The
vast majority of Chapel Hillians fall into that
youth culture.
But in recent years, a large number of retirees
have settled in Chapel Hill and in North
Carolina. And another big chunk of natives
have crossed that over-65 mark, meaning that
the population of the area and of the state is
gradually aging as a whole.
, And in Chapel Hill, that leaves us with two
different generations maturing at the same
time those growing up and those growing old.
But old and young aging together is not
incongruous, at least according to David
Brunn, chairman of the Retired Senior
Volunteer Program Advisory Committee.
"Most of the older people I know enjoy
college kids. There is a healthy attitude between
the retirees and the students, a general warm
feeling by most of the retired group towards the
student body," Brunn said.
"The University's existence here is a prime
reason why retirees come to Chapel Hill"
Brunn said. "I'm probably representative of the
typical retiree."
Brunn said many retirees take full advantage
. of what the University has to offer them as well
as what exists in the community. "There are
concert series and plays and many lecture series
especially designed for retirees who are curious
about current issues," he said.
Retirees may also attend UNC classes for a
small fee, for credit or just for interest.
While young people may believe otherwise,
experts said 80 percent of those over 65 are
healthy enough to lead active lives, including
community involvement. "Chapel Hill
combines intellectual stimulation of being in an
academic community with a perfect climate,"
said Bernice Hopkins, Orange County Council
on Aging program director.
Brunn is a typical active senior. As a
volunteer at N.C. Memorial Hospital he shares
with patients his wood working and carpentry
skills through occupational therapy classes.
"The theory behind occupational therapy is to
stimulate the patient's mind and body. So we
supply the basics for making bird houses and
feeders for the patients to complete."
RSVP, the program Brunn chairs, is designed
to give people over 60 the opportunity to share
their experiences and knowledge working with
non-profit community programs including
schools and low-income nutrition programs.
Many of the elderly spend their time working
with those less capable than themselves at the
hospital, in the home or even taking another
elderly person to the food store. Students from
the Campus Y, the Inter-Varsity Christian
Fellowship and other organizations also help
bridge the generation gap, making the lives of
the homebound elderly a little easier and a lot
less lonely.
"In some cases the volunteers young or
old are the only people the older person sees;
they are their contact with the world," Hopkins
said. "The volunteers also have the feeling of
being needed."
Hopkins said this interaction between the
ages helps. "Younger people are facing aging as
a reality, as part of the normal life cycle," he
said. And they're learning that, "Once you reach
the age of 60 or 65 you are still capable to
continue in your interests or begin another
field."

things as the in-school programs,
produced with the cooperation of the
Department of Public Instruction.
Many of the programs planned for
1980 are about crafts and craft-making.
"North Carolina is the craft center of the
United States " Haac said. Two of the
programs are a 12-part series on lap
quilting and a 13-part series called "The
Woodright Shop."
Six of the 12 parts on lap-quilting ran
last year and will be combined with six
new programs to run in early January. "It
was a really popular series when it ran last
year," Haac said. The Southern
Educational Communications
Association picked up the program when
it aired last year and made it available for
presentation on public broadcasting
stations throughout the Southeast, she
said.
"The Woodright Shop," which will be
aired in October 1980, is about 19th
century woodcrafting, antique tools, and
moving toward a post-petroleum age,
Haac said.
Other planned local programs include
"North Carolina: A Self-Portrait"; "It's
Your Business,"" a four-part series about
how to open and operate a small business;
and a series of jazz music called "Yusuf
and Friends." Yusuf is a jazz pianist who
has worked withBillieHolliday and now
lives in Durham. Other performers on the
series will be jazz musicians from the
area.
; Another local program, called "The
Environment 'and "the conmywsT
produced in cooperation with the League
of Women Voters, Haac said. "This show
is about economic development and what
happens to the environment when that
occurs," Haac said.
WUNC, in cooperation with Carolina
Regional Theatre and the UNC
department of radio, television and
motion pictures, produced a musical
drama called "The Flight Brothers,"
about Orville and Wilbur Wright.

"UNC-TV Celebrates North
Carolina," the theme for the 25th
anniversary celebration of this public
broadcasting network, is reflected in'
projected 1980 programming for Channel
4. One production that features both Tar
Heel subject matter and a local writer is
the musical drama The Flight Brothers'.
The show is being produced by the TV
network, the UNC department of radio,
television and motion pictures and
Carolina Regional Theatre.
The Flight Brothers! written by North
CarolmiaTii'Bilr Ries" is the story of
pioneer aviators Orville and Wilbur
Wright. CRT general manager John
Blizzard said the company tried to use
people in the play who were from North
Carolina or had North Carolina
connections.
"CRTs purpose is to produce high
quality theater in using North Carolina
resources," he said. "There's a need for
this state to provide outlets for
professional theater.

"The Flight Brothers! was performed
because the birth of aviation is probably
the most significant theme North
Carolina carries," Blizzard said.
Artistic director Martha Nell Hardy
said more than 100 people worked with
the production of the musical, of which
the majority were students at Carolina.
"The people doing the work were the
students," she said. "It's incredible the
kind of input we got from the kids on
this."
Hardy said Carolina was the only
university to have this sort of opportunity7
available to students. Other schools, she
said, "do not have the unique blend of
facility and people resources that we do."
The Flight Brothers! was produced in
the studios of UNC-TV under the
direction of CRT and the RTVMP
department. Although a date for the
showing of the play has been tentatively
set for February, UNC-TV officials said
the show may air later in the year.

BATON ROUGE, La, (AP)
Louisiana State University's new football
coach, Bo Rein, opened his recruiting war
by telephoning high school prospects this
morning and planning some personal
contacts later in the day.
After being introduced at the LSU
Board meeting when he was hired Friday,
Rein went back to North Carolina and
picked up four assistant coaches to join
him in his new job.
Rein, after being hired to replace
Charles McClendon, flew back to North.
Carolina State and interviewed his
assistants one by one. Four decided to
move with him George Belu, Bobby
Morrison, Darryl Moody and Greg
Williams.
Rein said he hopes to fill out his staff
within the next 10 days. He's able to hire
four more assistant coaches, two junior
varsity assistants and two graduate
assistants.
Rein talked to McClendon's assistants
Saturday morning.
He was scheduled to talk to two high
school prospects Sunday, several more by
telephone on Monday, then hit the road
later on Monday for personal contacts. -
Of the assistants he brought with him,
Moody and Morrison had the longest
tenure on Rein's staff. Both were with
him all four years at State.
Belu, who spent four years at the
University of Colorado before joining
Rein this season, is an offensive line
coach. Morrison coached the defensive
line.
Moody, who coached a year at
Southern Mississippi before joining

Rein's staff, is an offensive backfield
coach, and Williams coaches the
defensive secondary. Williams was at
Texas Christian before joining Rein this
season.
More than two
dozen active coaches
had been mentioned
in print as possible
successors to
McClendon,
including Miami
Dolphins head coach
Don Shula.
Rein had been head
coach at State for four
years. This season, the Wolfpack
compiled a 7-4 record and won the
Atlantic Coast Conference
championship.
Last year, Rein's team was 9-3, beating
Pitt in the Tangerine Bowl.
LSU finished the regular season with a
6-5 record and will meet Wake Forest in
the Tangerine Bowl on Dec. 22, the 13th
bowl appearance for LSU under
McClendon.
Bo Rein
His 18-year record is 136-59-7, and he
has had only one losing season since
taking over as head coach from Paul
Dietzei in 1961. That's the seventh best
winning percentage among active college
couches
Dietzei returned to LSU a year ago as
athletic director after serving as coach at
Army and South Carolina, athletic
director at Indiana and commissioner of
the Ohio Valley Conference.
He has said McClendon had been
offered a job in athletic administration at
LSU, but McClendon has not said yet
whether he will take it.
Despite his excellent record at LSU,
McClendon frequently was under fire by
fans who felt his offense was
unimaginative and that he was incapable
of "winning the big ones."
Much of that rap came from his record
of 2-14 against Alabama over his tenure
at LSU. ;
His losses this year included a 12-17
defeat by Southern Cal, ranked No. 1 at
the time, and a 0-3 defeat by Alabama,
the current No. 1 team.
