Lisa Goodwin captured the senior class presidency as the
Elections Board continued to count ballots well into the night
Thursday, with the outcome of several races from Wednesday's
student body elections still remaining in doubt.'
The Elections Board began counting the ballots for the
referendum calling for a new fee to fund a new intramural and
recreational sports program Thursday afternoon. But when
candidates for the Campus Governing Council and senior class
offices began to protest at having to wait for the outcome of their
. race the Elections Board stopped counting the referendum
ballots and started counting CGC ballots.
With ballots from 11 of 23 polling places counted, the
referendum appeared to be on the road to approval by more than
a 600-vote margin, however, said Elections Board Chairman F.
Scott Simpson said.
The Elections Board will continue counting the referendum
ballots today. The ballots for a referendum to allow the CGC to
increase its membership to as many as 30 representatives also will
be counted.
Goodwin and running mate Anna Watson, were elected senior
class president and vice president respectively, defeating
opponents Steve Gubin and Babs Keys.
Goodwin said she owed her victory to endorsements by The
Daily Tar Heel and other campus organizations and to the
support of coworkers in .her previous campus activities.
"I think the endorsements we received helped us a lot,"
Goodwin said. "Some of our contacts we made from our
experience in other activities also helped. I know we weren't as
big campaigners as Steve and Babs were."
ii
Gubin attributed his loss directly to the DTH endorsement of
Goodwin.
I don't think The Dailv Tar Heel has ever endorsed senior
class officers and this year's endorsement swayed a lot of votes,"
he said.
The DTH has not endorsed senior class officers in several
years.
. Uncontested candidates Jim Eaker and Frank Callison, were
elected as senior class treasurer and secretary, respectively.
Carolyn Smith, a write-in candidate, was elected president of
the Graduate and Professional Student Federation.
In CGC elections, incumbents Anne Middleton of District 12,
Cynthia Currin of District 8, Eleanor Smith of District 18 and
Dianne Hubbard of District 9 won re-election. Incumbent Eddie
Carlton of District 20 was defeated by opponent Tom Lambeth.
Other winners were Wayne Rackoff, District 1; Jeanne
Pemberton, District 2; Carolyn Smith, District 3; Drusilla Scott,
District 4; Joseph Kowalczyk, District 5; C. Thomas Preston,
District 6; Richard Cooke, District 7; Pamela Ginsberg, District
10; El Chino Miro Martin, District 1 1; Betsy Jordon, District 15;
and John Allgood District 16.
There will be run-off elections in District 14 between Grace
Emerson and John Goodwin, and in District 13 between Scott
Templeton and Rhonda Whicker.
A last minute write-in candidate in District 13, Alyson
Hookway, collected 105 votes, forcing a run-off between
Templeton, who received 159 votes and Whicker, who received
173 votes.
Hookway said she decided Tuesday night to run for the CGC
office and staged an election eve door-to-door campaign blitz.
Run-off elections will be held Feb. 20.
Kelly travels
to Washington
to meet Carter

Staff Writer
Student Body President J: B. Kelly is in
Washington today at the invitation of the White
House to participate in a seminar designed to gather
student imput for American foreign and domestic
policy decisions of the 1980s.
Kelly and 250 other student body presidents from
across the nation will meet with policy experts during
the day. A question and answer session and a
reception with President Carter is planned for later in
the day, White House staff member Heather Pars,
said Thursday.
"The purpose of the meeting is to address the issues
and challenges of the 1980s and allow for an
exchange of ideas among the speakers and students,"
Pars'said.
Pars said the White House staff wanted input from
the student representatives to gauge the opinions of
an age group which will be affected greatly by the
country's foreign and domestic policy during the
next 10 years.
"We will have policy experts there to explain the
President's decisions," Pars said.
Draft registration for the armed services will be
one of the many issues discussed at the meeting, Pars
said.

Kelly said Thursday he was looking forward to the
meeting.
"I think it will be interesting," Kelly said. "It might
be a good way of making contacts with other student
body presidents across the nation."
If given the opportunity, Kelly said he would ask
the President what his feelings are on federal
interference with state-controlled institutions, in
view of the present controversy between the
Department of Health, Education and Welfare and
the UNC system.
Kelly said he thought the meeting would serve
both as an informative session and a good political
move for next year's presidential elections.
Other North Carolina universities to be
represented at the meeting include Duke, A&T State
University, Appalachian State, East Carolina,
Winston-Salem State and Wake Forest University.
The Associated Press
A key negotiator said Thursday an agreement
had been reached to end the 103-day hostage
standoff in Tehran, but American officials
cautioned against undue optimism and Iran's
president again demanded U.S.
acknowledgement and condemnation of crimes
allegedly committed by the deposed shah.
Sean MacBride, former foreign minister of
Ireland, said the United States and the Iranians
have agreed the hostages will be released with
the opening of a U.N. inquiry into the shah's
alleged crimes. MacBride, who has been
involved in efforts to free the approximately 50
American hostages since the U.S. Embassy was
seized Nov. 4, said the inquiry would
"investigate the extent to which the regime of
the shah may have committed offenses under
international law."
In Tehran, President Abolhassan Bani-Sadr
told reporters late Thursday: "1 don't know
what he (MacBride) said. Let me alone."
Asked if a U.N. -sponsored commission of
inquiry would convene soon in Iran, Bani-Sadr
said.: "They are waiting for me to make that
announcement but 1 am waiting to see if the
U.S. will accept our conditions."
He reiterated the hostages could be released
only if the' United "States acknowledges and
condemns crimes allegedly committed by the
shah, pledges not tq interfere in Iranian affairs
and agrees not to block efforts to extradite the
shah oi have his money returned to Iran.
The hostages could be freed in a matter of 48
hours if Washington accepted conditions set by
his government, Bani-Sadr had said earlier in an
interview with the Italian RAI television. Over
the past few days, he has said conditions include
the panel and U.S. acknowledgement that
America committed crimes in Iran over the past
25 years.
Bani-Sadr outlined the same three-point
action plan in an interview published Monday
by the French newspaper Le Monde. On
Wednesday, the Iranian president said
revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah
Khomeini had accepted the plan.
However, the Iranian president said
Thursday. "Earlier I was asked if Imam
(Khomeini) agrees with the' proposal and 1
answered I think he will agree."
President Carter has ruled out accepting
blame for the U.S. role in restoring Shah
Mohammad Reza Pahlavi to the throne in 1953
and the State Department said it would not
profess guilt for any of its past actions in Iran.
But the Carter administration seemed to
leave open the possibility that the United States
might issue a carefully worded statement at
some later date acknowledging American
support of the shah during his rule.

New zoning proposition complicated
By ANNE-MARIE DOWNEY
Staff Writer
A pig on a pole at Crook's Corner barbecud and a
proposed housing restriction have grabbed most of
the attention during the consideration of Chapel
Hill's zoning ordinance rewrite.
But the complete rehaul of the existing 1955
ordinance will affect the future development of the
entire community and will have many implications
for the University's growth.
Several aspects of the proposed ordinance have
generated discussion among town politicians,
businessmen and University officials.
Mof t University land would be rezoned from the
almos. all-purpose "University A" zoning to office
and institutional use zoning, which is suitable for
most University needs.
But some proposed zoning changes have
prompted protest from University officials. Chapel
Hill Planning Director Mike Jennings addressed
several of the University-related zoning issues in a
recent memo to the town Planning Board.
The new ordinance seeks to control the transition
area between commercial or institutional zones and
residential zones. The ordinance would require any
non-residential building to be set back further from
the zoning line than is now required. The University
has argued that such a greater setback requirement
would limit its construction on campus. It would
also make several dorms non-conforming uses,
which means that the use of the land is different
from what is allowed by the designated zoning of
that area. The restriction would limit the kind of
dormitory changes allowed.
The University also has objected to zoning
revisions that would make several University
buildings in residential districts, rather than office
and institutional districts. The new ordinance
would zone the President's House, the Hickerson
House and the residence of the Naval ROTC
commanccr as residential, in an effort to maintain
the residential character of the Franklin Street
entranceway to town.
But University officials maintain that the
buildings are an essential part of the campus and
should have the same . zoning office and
institutional as the rest of campus.
The town's historic district was the site of a major
battle between the University and the town last year
when the Chapel Hill Historic District Commission
tried to block the construction of the UNC Press
Building. The University was able to bypass the
commission, and the construction of the Press
Building in Battle Park is underway.
But University construction in the Battle Park
area could be brought under tighter control under
the new ordinance. It is proposed that the area,
which includes the Park Place parking lot, the Press
Building and the Forest Theater, be rezoned to
residential use, not the current University-use
designation. The University has argued the area
should f be zoned to reflect its current office and
institutional use.
The University's growth and development
demands arc not the only University-related areas
facing changes in the proposed ordinance.
Parking both on and off campus will be
addressed in the ordinance.
, Under the current ordinance, the University is
required to provide parking, as any other business
must. But the requirement never has been enforced.
In his memo Jennings proposed several options
to control University parking policy. The town
could require a certain number of parking spaces
per building, could exempt the University from any
parking requirements or could require the
University to present a parking plan to town
authorities.
If the University is required to provide a specific
number of spaces, it could counteract the town's
plan to discourage automobile use and encourage
the use of commuter park-ride lots. But if the town

Olde Campus
confederation
soon may unify
By LINDA BROWN
- Staff Writer
Officers of several North Campus dorms say they are close to
forming a new Olde Campus Confederation based on the Upper
Quad and three dorms which withdrew from the Morehead
Confederation last spring.
In March, 1979, residents of Aycock, Everett and Lewis voted
to leave the Morehead Confederation in hopes of forming a new
confederation with Upper Quad (Mangum, Manly, Grimes and
Ruffin), Graham and Stacy. The residents of Graham and Stacy
voted to remain in Morehead Confederation, however.
'Upper Quad is sort of skeptical because
they've never been in a formal residence area.
Jim Eaker
"Our ideal was for it to be all nine dorms, but since we didn't
have that number, it's just the seven," said Jim Eaker, Olde
Campus representative on the Residence Hall Association
governing board.
Eaker said the Olde Campus dorms have opted for a residence
hall confederation rather than a residence college because of the
more permanent nature of the latter. RH A regulations prohibit a
dorm from withdrawing from a residence college.
"In being a confederaion we want to leave that possibility (to
withdraw from the group) open," Eaker said.
An Olde Campus confederation will help coordinate
dormitory financial matters, Eaker said.
"It will be easier on the officers in the money situation," he
said. "Now they have to collect from each dorm when they want
something."
If a confederation is formed, $ 1 .50 of each resident's social fees
per semester will be put into confederation coffers to fund such
activities as newsletters and dances.
"Upper Quad is sort of skeptical because they've never been in
a formal residence area," Eaker said. "They don't know what to
expect. It's sort of an experience for them."
Upper Quad in the past has been affiliated with an informal
organization with Spencer, Triad and Old Well (STOW). STOW
is in the process of forming a residence college of its own.
Eaker said he has received little opposition to anOlde Campus
confederation, however. A referendum probably will be held by
early March to allow Olde Campus residents to vote on a new
confederation constitution, he said.

Capitalism vs. socialism
leads symposium debate
By JONATHAN RICH
Staff W riter
The century-old conflict between
capitalism and socialism was revived last
night as two noted proponents of the
opposing systems debated the question
-What is a Great Society?"
The Carolina Symposium debate
featured Michael Harrington, chairman
of the Democratic Socialist Party of
America, and W. Allen Waliis. chancellor
of Rochester University and former dean
of the University of Chicago Business
School.
Harrington, who is known as
America's foremost socialist, predicted
that by the end of the century every
society in the world will have centralized
its economy under political control.
"The queMton is not so much whether
we will have a politicized, collective
economy that is inevitable, The
question is who will control thi new
society and in what manner," Harrington
said.
"The next ten years will see changes in
American society as radical as those
experienced during the 1930V he said.
Harrington pointed to a growing trend
toward government economic
intervention in America and the world l
an indication of this change.
"We are facing a major cmi of
stagflation in this country's economy,"
Harrington said. "Major industries such
as steel and auto manufacturers are in
serious difficulty, whe Carter has
virtually declared bankruptcy and a
future of lower standards of living in
America."
But Harrington said that if the country
