N. C. campus paper trying to become a force9
By LINDA QUEEN
Staff Writer
"Combined Forces will work to help
build a campus political and cultural
movement to meet the challenges of
thel980's."
So goes the opening sentence of an editorial comment
in a new publication seen on North Carolina campuses,
Combined Forces, "The Triangle's Progressive Campus
Newspaper," based in Raleigh.
Ted Johnson, a UNC graduate and the coordinator of
the paper, and Neil Goldberg, editor, began production
of Combined Forces in September.
Johnson said the aim of the paper was to cover items
that are not "in the mainstream press."
"We don't want to just be a view, but become a force
for people (to motivate them) to get involved." He also
said it was not intended to be a "following behind a ban
ner" type movement, but a total group effort.
Film brings
N.C. more
than fame
By TOM GREY

Brainstorm will look familiar to many
of the North Carolinians attending one of
its two state premiere shows tonight in
Raleigh parts of the movie were filmed
at Research Triangle Park, Duke Universi
ty and the Oakwood section of .Raleigh
and in Chapel Hill.
The film, starring the late Natalie
Wood, Cliff Robertson, Christopher
Walken and Louise Fletcher, had the big
gest budget of any previous film shot in
North Carolina. The fact that Brainstorm
was made here at all may be largely due to
the efforts of the North Carolina Film Of
fice in Raleigh.
Bill Arnoll, director of the Film Office,
was involved with the project for over
three years. After two trips to Hollywood
in 1980 to sell the state as a good place to
film, MGM contacted Arnoll about loca
tions for a script the movie company was
considering the script for Brainstorm.
Arnoll and his staff put together a
package of information on possible sites
and sent it to MGM. Three weeks later a
group from MGM, including director
Douglas Trumbull, came to look at the
sites.
It was on this excursion that Arnoll
learned more about why the MGM of
ficials were considering North Carolina.
Trumbull told Arnoll that he had a "mad
scientist friend" who told Trumbull that if
the kind of research described in the movie
were going on anywhere in the United
States, it would be in the Research
Triangle Park.
The research in the movie concerns a
technique for recording people's thoughts
and emotions on tape. This technique is
discovered by two scientists played by
Fletcher and Walken who work for a
large corporate think tank.
The similar corporate facilities the of-

people have these opinions, but they just weren't coming
out."
Joey Pillow added, "A lot of people can express their
medium in Combined Forces. This would give a good
opportunity (for people) to come together."
The present staff of the paper will sit down and talk
about what needs to be covered and reach a consensus,
Johnson said. He added, "There's a struggle in a good
way; there'd be a discussion for hours on what would be
in the paper."
Dowling said the paper's staff was also now in the
process of developing an editorial policy. She also men

made it a natural site to select for filming
those scenes, Arnoll said. "They were so
taken with the area that they decided not
only to film here but also to call the loca
tions by their North Carolina names in the
movie," he added.
The Film Office worked two years on
the project before the filming actually
started. "We tried to find locations close
to each other in order to minimize travel
expenses for the filming crew, which con
sisted of almost a hundred people," Arnoll
said. "We were able to find sites with dif
ferent textures within a small geographical
area." '
It took six weeks to film Brainstorm at
seven different locations in the state. In
addition to locations in the Triangle area,
parts were filmed at Kitty Hawk, Southern
Pines and Pinehurst.
In those six weeks the film production
company spent $6 million in North

"A film company typically spends one

Arnoll said.
After filming in North Carolina was
completed, the production moved to
California. The drowning death of Natalie
Wood in November 1981 put the film in
limbo because some of her scenes had not
been completed.
After the film spent Wi years on the
shelf, MGM and Lloyd's. of London, the
film's insurer, decided to spend $3.5
million for special effects and another $1 .4

UNC now has the largest distribution figure for Com

at Duke, NCSU, Shaw University and St. Augustine
Universities.
Pillow said the "foundation will be at UNC once
people can see the paper then the participaticlnwill
follow. We would like to get the paper in the hands of
people who. want to read it."
Johnson said the reaction to Combined Forces has
been good, with more than 100 people from UNC signed
up to help the staff "in any way possible." The first
issue was published from funds supplied by the staffs
contributions. The staff would still like to bring in more
advertising and private contributions, Johnson said.
Johnson said the organization is not yet established
quite fully, "but that'll come."
Anyone interested in helping Combined Forces can

should be completed by today, manager
Gary Scruggs said.
Tickets for the two premiere shows are
$100. The proceeds will go toward
renovating the old art museum in Raleigh
for the new State History Museum, said
Eve Williamson, executive director of the
N.C. Museum of History Associates, a
group raising money for the museum. She
said Robinson and Fletcher would be at
tending the premiere. Fletcher is currently
filming Firestarter in Wilmington.
Although tonight's showings were to
have been the world premiere of
Brainstorm, MGM decided to open the
movie around the country a week early.
"Rather than move the premiere up a
week," Williamson said, "we decided to
make it a premiere for the people of North
Carolina. After all, the proceeds from it
will benefit the state."
No mikeman set
for Wake game
By ANDY HODGES
Staff Writer
UNC will not have a mikeman at this
Saturday's football game against Wake
Forest, but no official decision has been
made regarding a mikeman for the rest of
the season, a University official said
Wednesday.
Mikeman Kenny Ward was fired last
week for reasons including jokes and
remarks made in poor taste, missing prac
tices and not working well with the band
and cheerleaders, said Sharon R. Mitchell,
assistant dean in the department of student
life.
Mitchell said that she has spoken with
several other University officials about the
selection of a new mikeman since last
week, but no action has been decided on.
"I think we are still very much involved
in the evaluation of the spirit unit," Mit
chell said. "As far as an actual decision,
we're pretty much where we have been."
She said those involved in the decision
are "leaning more toward the use of the
expertise of the cheerleaders" and more
crowd participation, but added that the
situation is being handled game by game.
Varsity cheerleader co-captain Mitch
Barnes said the cheerleaders are going to
"stick to basics" in preparing for the game
without a mikeman.
"Just plain cheering, I think, will work
better than the same routines we've used in
the past with mikemen," he said. "We're
going to try to get our fans behind the
team without relying on jokes, but just on
Carolina spirit.
"We're going to have a lot more
cheerleader-crowd participation. We're
PGland's Walesa wins
Nobel Peace Prize
The Associated Press
OSLO, Norway Lech Walesa,
founder of Poland's Solidarity labor
movement which shook the Communist
world, won the Nobel Peace Prize on
Wednesday, for his fight on behalf of the
"unconquerecf longing" of all people for
peace and freedom.
Walesa quickly said he would give the
approximately $190,000 award to Poland's
Roman Catholic Church, which has been
outspoken in its support of the labor
movement. Solidarity admirers around the world
praised Walesa's selection. Pope John
Paul II wired congratulations to his
40-year-old compatriot and President
Reagan hailed the award as a victory of
"moral force over brute force."
Polish authorities did not say whether
they would permit Walesa to leave Poland
to accept the award, and the labor leader
said he was considering sending a relative
in his place. Soviet dissident Andrei
Sakharov, the only other Peace Prize
laureate of the East bloc, did not accept
his 1975 award because he feared he would
not be allowed to return home. His wife.
Local specialty shops offer
fresh, natural alternatives
By SHARON SHERIDAN
Staff Writer
Europeans may stop at the
greengrocer's, the bakery and the meat
market to do their food shopping. But
Americans prefer to get all their food at
one supermarket. This concerns owners of
specialty food stores in America.
"All I can do to combat that is offer a
real fresh product at a nearly competitive
price," said George Lawrence, owner of
The Bread Shop at 411 West Franklin
Street, next to McDonalds. Americans
consider it an inconvenience to have to
stop at several food shops, he said.
When you shop as the Europeans do,
you know who is making your bread, he
said. "You feel better when you know
who's making what you're buying."
Six days a week, the Bread Shop makes
fresh, whole grain breads and pastries
without preservatives or additives. The
bakery uses about two tons of flour a
week, and the ovens work more than 20
hours a day.
"During the winter we start bread at 1 1
in the morning and we finish at four the.
next morning. At five in the morning the
baker who does the sweets comes in. He
works until 10 or 11 a.m."
At larger industrial companies.
going in the stands when we feel the team
needs it most."
Mitchell and UNC band director Major
John Yesulaitis met with Ward last week
to discuss the administration's concerns
and actions, but Mitchell said that was not
the first time the concerns had been ex
pressed. She said she did not know if any
University officials had spoken with Ward
personally regarding his performances ear
ly in the season, but added that "the ad
ministration's concerns were given to him
through the proper channels."
She said that Ward was given sugges
tions and evaluations by the cheerleaders
and band after each game.
Ward said earlier this week that in his
opinion he has been told nothing official
and is still waiting to hear from Mitchell or
Donald Boulton, vice chancellor of stu
dent affairs.
"She (Mitchell) told me that my job as
mikeman was technically over, but that
was before she asked me to resign," Ward
said.
Mitchell said, however, that at least part
of the issue is settled.
"I guess the official stance is that Kenny
is not the mikeman," she said. "I can't
imagine how he can have missed anything.
We explained our concerns to him clearly
and still in a way that was very human."
Mitchell said last week that a large part
of these concerns were based on letters and
comments received by the administration
saying that some parts of Ward's perfor
mances were in poor taste.
Ward disagreed.

Yelena Bonner, attended on his behalf.
In Warsaw,, deputy government
spokesman Andrzej Konopacki charged
that the award was politically motivated
and said the Peace Prize "used to be a
meaningful award. Now it is devalued."
Walesa, who was interned by the Com
munist government for 11 months during
martial law, was harassed afterward while
trying to return to his job as a shipyard
electrician, and has recently been the ob
ject of a news media campaign to discredit
him.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee said
Walesa had made his contribution "with
considerable personal sacrifice to ensure
the workers' right to establish their own
organization."
The Solidarity union, the only indepen
dent labor union in the Soviet bloc, was
founded in August 1980, after a wave of
strikes and unrest, but was suspended at
the imposition of martial law Dec. 13,
1981, and later outlawed.
A Solidarity underground remains and,
despite frequent government efforts to
minimize Walesa's importance and
discredit him, he remains a hero of the

Lawrence said, bread conforms to the
needs of machines. At The Bread Shop,
the bread is given the chance to rise several
times and chemical are not added.
"When yeast reacts with the sugars, it
gives off gases and enzymes and that's
what imparts a good taste to bread,"
Lawrence said. The big industrial com
panies add chemicals which speed up the
activity of the yeast. "They also add
chemicals which simulate the taste given
off naturally by the yeast if you ferment
it," he said.
"We never have considered ourselves
part of a natural food movement," he
said. "It's old fashioned, that's all."
The Bread Shop, open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Monday through Saturday, has been in
Chapel Hill about eight years. About 65
percent of the shop's business is wholesale.
If you walk into The Bread Shop, the
most striking feature may be the smell of
fresh-baked bread. But this is one thing
Lawrence can't enjoy.
"We can't smell it. For a baker who
works five to six days a week, after a while
that smell is just background noise," he
said. .
"I get a lot of pleasure out of doing
work that feeds people. And there's a cer
tain sense of sculpturing," Lawrence said.
