Friday, November 19. 1982The Daily Tar Heel3 IT spnngi Dy CHARLES ELLMAKER surrwritff The Campus Governing Council Wednesday appropriated $1,000 to Henderson Residence College for the Springfest concert, a move which some CGC members felt might seriously damage chances for approval of the 1983 Chapel Thrill concert. CGC Speaker Pro Tern James Exum (District 15) expressed concern about the effects of passing the Springfest appropria tion. "I don't know if I've made up my mind about Chapel Thrill. If we pass Springfest, we won't kill Chapel Thrill, but we'll seriously injure it," Exumsaid. Springfest is scheduled' for the weekend of April 16, just one weekend before the proposed Chapel Thrill date, HRC Gover nor Henry Miles told the council. "I don't think this will affect the coun cil's decision about Chapel Thrill," Miles said Thursday. "I think people will be will ing to go to both. I'm not trying to com pete." Ben Lee, Student Government's Chapel Thrill Committee Chairman, said he did not see why Springfest should affect Chapel Thrill. "I don't know how this will affect the CGC's decision," Lee said Thursday. "As far as people go, I don't think Springfest will hurt us. Heck, we're working to gether." Lee will present his final Chapel Thrill proposal to the CGC Finance Committee Tuesday night. Exum moved to table the Springfest ap propriation until the Chapel Thrill concert is finalized, but Finance Committee mem ber Dan Bryson (District 1 8) said it was not fair to decide whether to help fund Spring fest on the basis of the Chapel Thrill fun ding. "It's unfair to penalize Springfest when they've prepared months in advance' Bryson said Wednesday. "And it's not fair that we'd consider giving Chapel Thrill $100,000 and not give Springfest $1,000 for a concert that can draw half as many people." Several CGC members said they disap proved, of using student fees "to throw beer bashes." j . j ."(fh 1 fff esx gets i ,yyyv CGC member Lori Dostal (District 5) said she was shocked that the CGC would help sponsor concerts. "The whole idea is ridiculous that we're spending student fees on beer parties," Dostal said. "I just can't believe we're sponsoring these concerts in the first place." But other council members said Spring fest was a good use of student fees because so many students could be affected through the expenditure of so few dollars. Bryson said Springfest would be "giving students something they really want to see." Student Affairs Committee Chairman Dennis Bartels (District 10) said it was easier for council members to fund Spring fest than Chapel Thrill. "There are some real differences be tween Chapel Thrill and Springfest," Bartels said. "(Springfest) is open to aH students there is no $10 admission ticket and the cost effectiveness is very good." The appropriation passed with a 10-9 vote; Student Body President Mike Vandenbergh abstained from voting. Miles said Springfest's $3,000 budget would provide students with a free concert on Connor Beach featuring both local and regional bands over a two-day period. "This concert will bring people from all over the student community," Miles said. "We'll bring people from South Campus, the Greek houses and from oft campus." A beverage distributor will probably help bear the cost of the concert, he said. "Ideally, we'd like to get Coca-Cola (as a sponsor)," Miles said. "But if we do get a beer distributor, they won't be supplying any beer." In other action, the CGC appropriated $193 to the Association of Women Stu dents so that revenue funds forfeited last year would be restored to that organiza tion. Finance Committee Chairperson Charlie Madison (District 23) said AWS had negotiated a deal with Chapel Thrill last year under which AWS would sell con cessions during the concert for a fee of $225. AWS agreed that concessioners would pay for their admission tickets, and Chapel Thrill agreed not to pay AWS the fee until after May 15 so that the funds would not revert back to the Student Government General Reserve. Part of the funds appropriated to the AWS will go toward reimbursing members for the money they paid to go to Chapel Thrill. The $193 will be added to $32 that did not revert back tothe General Reserve last year. t ; ' The CGC also passed bills focusing on proposals to raise the drinking age and to institute a nuclear freeze. The first bill opposed the raising of the drinking age in North Carolina to 21 and called for stricter enforcement of current drunk driving laws in the state. The proposal originally opposed raising the age above 18, but many council mem bers supported raising the drinking age to 19, saying that would make it more dif ficult for high school students to obtain alcohol. The second resolution called for a nuclear arms freeze agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union. The bill was passed 8-6, with one abstention. But many members, while supporting the freeze in theory, expressed skepticism about the actual effects of such a freeze. Rules and Judiciary Committee Chair person Phil Painter (District 19) said he supported the freeze, but thought ."t would compVomise U.S. national security. Other Council members said tbey did not think it was the place of the CGC to voice an opinion for the entire student body on this type of issue.

"Occultations and Other Celestial Alignments" begins in the sky theater at 4 p.m., and admis sion is $1. An occultation is an eclipse of a planet or star by a body other than the sun, said Lee T. Shapiro, director of the Morehead Planetarium at UNC. "We'll duplicate a solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse inside the planetarium." After the half-hour show, there will be a free observing ses sion from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. The planetarium will provide several small telescopes, but participants should bring binoculars if possible. Mars should beein to rv Vehind H mnnn nt sWvit r m t wo programs But another celestial phenomenon sunset will be at 5:06 p.m. and could interfere with the chances of seeing the first phase of the occultation. 4 ' Even though it may be difficult to detect the actual time of disappearance or reappearance, there is still the opportunity after the reappearance to view the moon and Mars very close together in the sky," Shapiro said. Mars should reappear on the other side of the moon at about 5:26 p.m. "When Mars re-emerges from behind the moon, that should be visible," he said. Shapiro said the cccultation would occur about 20 degrees over the horizon in a south by southwest direction, the event can only be seen in parts of the Carolinas and southeastern Virginia. - If the weather is cloudy, Shapiro said the planetarium would still hav the show inside but would not hold the viewing ses sion.
