Friday, January 14, 1983The Daily Tar Heel3 Students may purchase i - - - inexpensive used books Events mark King's birthday ABC's Max Robinson to speak here By HEIDI OWEN Staff Writer ' ' ' ' It's not easy being a student, especially when a textbook-buying spree can, necessitate a month of cheap peanut butter and four-for-a-doilar macaroni and cheese meals. But there are ways to avoid pouring those Christmas earnings into one semester's worth of textbooks. Used books at the Student Stores, sell ing books back and textbook co-ops can often provide unexpected savings and even revenue for students. Used books in the Student Stores have saved the student body more than $200,000 in one year, according to Student Stores Advisory Committee Chairman William I. Burke. And when a book will be used again next semester, students can sell their old books to the Student Stores for 50 percent of the new list price, and for the wholesale price when the book will not be used the next semester, Burke said. Another alternative is to take advantage of the Alpha Phi Omega Book Co-Op program. The APO books will be on sale until Tuesday, Jan. 18. Students selling books receive the price they set for their books minus 15 percent in cash, r The 15 percent share will be placed in the Bernard Grail Scholarship Fund which will provide student aid to UNC students. Alice Stroup, chairman of the APO coop, said that more than $5,000 was t given to the scholarship fund last semester. "This semester we expect to donate over $6,500. Some people say they are saving ' more than $40 to $50 on books bought from APO, and I think it's great that we can give the students that opportunity." Other alternatives to purchasing and selling books for lower prices are buying them from friends, used book stores, and from individuals in the school. Many people advertise books they want to sell on bulletin boards in the Union, as well as other locations on campus. But students should always double-check the editions of these books to make sure they are the correct text for a specific class. By KYLE MARSHALL ,' Staff Writer Events commemorating the birthday of Martin Luther King Jr. have been scheduled for the UNC campus this weekend, culminating in an appearance Sunday by Max Robinson of ABC News. Robinson will give "A Television Journalist's Tribute to Martin Luther King Jr." at 8 p.m. Sunday in Memorial Hall.

' Before Robinson's speech, UNC Chancellor Chris topher C. Fordham III will present the first scholar ship award of the King Scholarship Fund.
