Concerted planning
. Monday's announcement by Chapel Thrill Committee Chairman
Wes Wright that his committee had signed 'two groups to play at
Kenan Stadium Apr. 24 culminated hours of planning that began
almost eight months ago.
And while the committee is still looking for a rock V roll group to
complete the Chapel Thrill lineup, the signing of Hall and Oates and
Kool and the Gang has proven that with an early start, Student
Government can book a big-name concert for a time of the year when
good bands generally are not available.
It was just about a year ago that the Chapel Thrill Committee an
nounced a cancellation of the weekend spring concert, partly because
of poor planning and partly because there was a shortage of quality,
groups playing in this area.
As a result, Student Body President Scott Norberg vowed to get an
early start on this year's concert and directed Wright to begin prepara
tions over the summer.
With a Feb. 15 deadline set for signing the bands, Wright and the
approximately 20 people working on the project were forced to do a
lot of the background work last fall, in order to have time for talent
selection this semester.
The planning paid off, and Wright did not encounter many of the
problems that plagued last year's committee. As a result, working
closely with Wilson Howard of Beach Club Booking, the committee
was able to sign Hall and Oates, who are not on tour, but agreed to do
a one-stop show in Chapel Hill.
Obviously there is still a great deal of planning to do. Details, rang
ing from promotions and security to choice of vendors will have to be
discussed in the few weeks, as well as the final decision onja third
band. But compared to the disappointment of last year's cancella
tion, plans are shaping up nicely.
Wright and his committee deserve credit for the number of hours
they have invested in concert preparation. With continued work,
Chapel Thrill should re-establish itself as a springtime tradition.

Protest march on El Salvador coming up
To the editor:
EI Salvador is in the headlines once
again. And Secretary of State Alexander
Halg declares that the United States will
do "whatever is necessary" to prevent the
Salvadoran junta from losing its civil war
with the guerrillas of the Farabundo Mar
ti National T iberation Front.
The administration is propping up an
unpopular, repressive regime, in El
Salvadcor with more than $100 million in
military and economic aid this year, and
the United States is presently , training
some 1,500 Salvadoran troops and of
ficers at Fort Bragg and Fort Benning,
Georgia. All this military aid supports the
junta's refusal to negotiate with the rebels
and prolongs the death and agony of civil
war. .
: A protest march on Fort Bragg on Jan.
1 1 of this year drew more than 200 people
to voice their opposition to U,S. training
of Salvadoran troops. The Feb. 27 Fort
Bragg Coalition is now organizing a
statewide demonstration to take place on
Feb. 27 in Fayetteville. A rally at Pope
Park in Fayetteville will be followed by a
motorcade to Fort Bragg, and possibly a
peaceful demonstration on the site.
Local groups affiliated with the Coali
tion include Americans for Common
Sense, the Carolina Committee on Cen
tral America, the Coalition for Social
Justice and the Democratic Socialist
Organizing Committee.
During the next two weeks, there will
be numerous events on campus and in the
community to let people know about
U.S. policy and the situation in .El
Salvador, and to invite participation in
the Feb. 27 protest. Arrangements for
transportation to Fayetteville are being
made, and those interested in par
ticipating should talk to members of the
organizations named above.
Literature tables will soon be staffed in
the Pit and on Franklin Street. The Coali
tion asks everyone to show their opposi-

Irresponsible journalism
To the editor:
Although accustomed to reporters'
opinions appearing on the front page of
The Daily Tar Heel, I feel compelled to
point out the blatant editorializing of one
of your newswriters, Alan Chappie, in
last Friday's edition of your paper.
In his article on President Reagan's
New Federalism, Mr. Chappie took the
liberty to declare that most N.C. political
observers believe the New Federalism
spells absolute disaster for the state's
economy. Although the president's pro
posal has drawn its share of specific
criticisms, the general concept has receiv
ed very positive support from state
leaders around the country, including
North Carolina.
The writer' backs up his prediction of
economic disaster with comments from
our Democratic governor's press
secretary, the executive director of the
North Carolina Democratic Party, and a
UNC political science professor. I
seriously hope that the writer does not
believe this group represents "most
North Carolina lawmakers and
observers." .
Why didn't the writer interview anyone
with an opposing view? Surely there are
some of us around who believe that the
New Federalism, once it is hammered out
with input from various sources, can pro
vide a more responsible and workable
alternative to centralized government.
It was truly disappointing to see this
type of irresponsible and twisted jour
nalism appear on the front page of the
DTH. One must wonder when jour
nalistic politicos will learn to subtract
their opinions from their articles.
