Wednesday, September 28. 1983fl"he Daily Tar Heel3
Rally degenerates into shouting
What began as a rally for the Col
legiate Association for the Research of
Principles turned into a shouting match
Tuesday afternoon in the Pit.
Members of CARP, which is led by
and follows the preachings of Rev.
Sun-Myung Moon, argued with about
20 onlookers as the usual crowd of
students in the Pit looked on.
CARP members urged listeners to
oppose the Soviet Union and com-,
munism and to unite in a fight against
the Soviets.
The most vocal of the respondents
shouted statements such as "Fascists
have no right to speak" and "CIA -Moonies
clan. Difference faces, same
clan."
The leader of the rally was Jack
Ashworth, regional director for
CARP, who said that CARP is an or
ganization that follows a "universal
value perspective that can unite peoples
of various religions and peoples of con
science to build a better world.
"We back Reagan's strong policy
against Soviet aggression in Central
America, and we support counterre
volutionaries and all freedom-loving
people," he said, "whether they are in
Central America or Afghanistan or be
hind the Iron Curtain."
One of the students vocally opposing
the CARP message was senior Susan
Freedman.
"It's very scary because when they
support the United States with no
probing into what our policies are, that
leans toward fascism," she said.
Another vocal opponent was
Richard McGough, an anthropology
graduate student and a member of the
Carolina Committee on Central
America.
"You have to look at how the
United States government is using the
(Korean Air Lines) incident,"
McGough said. "The United States is
trying to use it to place cruise missiles in
Europe, to cover up U.S. actions in
Central America, to invade the Philip
pines," he said.

"We are by no means at the point where we can
relax," Davis said. "Now we have to keep doing just as
good a job as we did this past weekend."
University Lake, Chapel Hill's main water source,
was 60.5 inches below full Tuesday and dropping one
half inch to one inch per day, Davis said. "This level is
considered seriously low for this time of year," he said.
The mandatory restrictions imposed last month will
remain in effect until the lake is adequately full, but it
wiD probably not be until November or even December
before these restrictions can be lifted.
Lebanon
From page 1
for as long as it took to install a stable government in Lebanon.
Reagan said in his letter: "It would be my intention to seek
congressional authorization. . .if circumstances require any
substantial expansion in the number or role of U.S. armed forces
in Lebanon."
He went on to say, "I can assure you that if our armed forces
are needed in Lebanon beyond the 1 8-month period, it would be
my intention to work together with the Congress with a view
toward taking action on mutually acceptable terms."
House Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill, D-Mass., responded,
"There is no question in my mind that the While House has made
a commitment to us and he (the president) is going to Bve by it. I
can't get that any stronger than I have it."
House Majority Leader Jim Wright, D-Texas, said Reagan's
assurance on the expansion in the number or role of the troops
was an "effective antidote to the misunderstandings that have
been caused by Secretary Shuhz' statements."
Asked about the paragraph dealing with the time period,
Wright said, "I don't know what that means. I guess it's a sort of
a mealy-mouthed way of saying, 'I recognize that you only ex
tended it for 18 months.' "

Independent to run for mayor of Carrboro

Look For The Green Awning
By DOUG TATE
Staff Writer
Jim Porto, an independent candidate, officially announced his
intentions to run for mayor of Carrboro Monday at a press con
ference at Town Hall.
"Carrboro now needs a moderate mayor who is not identified
with any faction," Porto said.
A 10-year resident of Carrboro, Porto said that the town is
divided into factions and that a moderate approach would bring
more unity to local government.
Carrboro government is divided between two political factions
the Association for a Better Carrboro and the Carrboro Com
munity Coalition.
Mayor Robert Drakeford is aligned with the liberal CCC, and
Alderman Jim White, candidate for mayor, is endorsed by the
conservative ABC.
Mayor Drakeford announced earlier that he would not seek a
fourth term.
Porto said he believed that most of the town's citizens were
moderates and that it was time to put factionalism aside and work
for unity in town politics.
Quality of living, economic development and government effi
ciency are the major issues in the campaign, he said.
Porto said he supported protection of the watershed, public
transportation, public bond referendum hearings and cost-benefit
budget analysis.
Improvement of the bus system is one of the issues, Porto said,
that would affect students. Porto supports long-range planning in
the transportation department.
Porto said all of his proposed activities could be supported
without increasing property taxes,, "provided that creative solu
tions are actively sought when the conditions around these ac
tivities change."
Porto will file with the Orange County Board of Elections to
day. Porto is a management consultant with Management Applica
tions Inc. in Research Triangle Park. He is the current chairman
of the Carrboro Appearance Commission.

Preston to seek seat on the Town Council
" '"i.'f.
By TRACY ADAMS
Staff Writer
Nancy Preston, in her first attempt at
seeking public office, Wednesday an
nounced her candidacy for the Chapel Hill
Town Council.
Preston said her decision to run was
based on her concern over the proposed
Thoroughfare Plan.
"I was really upset with parts of the
plan, especially the one-way pairing of
Franklin and Rosemary streets," she said.
"I believe it would destroy the character of
the downtown area.
"The next few years will be critical in
Chapel Hill's development. Decisions that
we make will determine whether the
town's physical environment and com
munity institutions retain a human scale."
Preston said local leaders need to plan
for the town's growth and development.
"I believe we are challenged to find a
middle ground that accomodates growth
yet does not threaten those aspects of
Chapel Hill its beauty, pace of life,
sense of history and variety of people
that we all value," Preston said.
Other important campaign issues are the
zoning ordinance, downtown develop
ment, parking, expansion of the public
library and the water problem, Preston
said. '
"We can't continue to build and grow if
the water problem is not resolved,"
Preston said. "Soon, we will be having the
same problem every year."
Other than her interest in the Thorough
fare Plan, Preston said her decision to seek
a council seat followed encouragement by
friends. ,
She is married to Edwin T. Preston, a
local physician. Nancy Preston was bom
in Tennessee but has lived in the Triangle
area for about 25 years.
Preston is an active member of the Uni
versity Presbyterian Church and is a
former East Franklin precinct registrar.
She has also served as president of the
Chapel Hill Preservation Society and as a
member of the Historic District Commis
sion. Preston said she plans to file her can
didacy with the Board of Elections this
week.
