Forum inconclusive on restrictions for mopeds
By AMY BRANEN
Staff Writer
University students had a chance to air their
views on the issue of mopeds and bicycles on
campus sidewalks in an open forum Monday.
Tom Shealy, chairman of the town relations and
transportation committee, led the discussion
and Robert Sherman, director of security ser
vices, answered questions.
"I'm not necessarily saying we need a ban of
mopeds on campus sidewalks," Sherman said.
"I am saying that something needs to be done."
Sherman said that a number of states were
having trouble putting mopeds into a specific
category, such as bicycles or motorcycles.
Therefore, no legislation had been decided on.
"It's becoming more and more difficult to
distineuish a moped from a small motorcvcle."
he said.
Sherman said that many of the parking lots
on North Campus have spaces specifically
designated for motorcycles. Provisions are be
ing looked into which would allow students to
chain their mopeds there, he said.
Student suggestions included putting areas
for moped parking on the perimeter of the cam
pus so there would be less reason for mopeds to
be on the sidewalks.
Several students said they did not think that
restricting the use of mopeds on campus would
solve the problem.
"I know there are some real jerks on mopeds,
I've seen them," said Jonathan McGirt, a
junior from Kinston. "I don't think it's sympto
matic of a moped problem, it just shows a
general disrespect for traffic courtesy."
Students said that bicycles and mopeds
should be classified together, so that any action
taken on mopeds would include bicycles too.
But Sherman disagreed, saying that although
bicycles were dangerous, mopeds had the poten
tial to cause more harm.
Another topic of student concern was the
problem of people chaining bicycles in places
other than bike racks.
"I use the handicap ramps and I resent people
using them to chain their bicycles and mopeds,"
said Nancy Brown Brewer, a senior from
Durham. "These ramps are narrow enough as it
is."
Brewer pointed out that bicycles and mopeds
were especially dangerous to students with hear
ing and sight impairments.
Sherman said the issue would be studied
closely before any action would be taken.

New task force considers ideas for integration of housing
Chapel Hill-Carrboro school boardgetsnew3
From Staff Reports
Incumbent Edith Elliott Wiggins
and newcomers Carolyn Horn,
Dorothy Sue Baker and Phyllis
Lotchin were elected Tuesday to
the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Board of
Education.
Baker was the top vote-getter
with 4,653 or 17.4 percent of all
votes cast. She was. followed by
Horn with 16.3 percent, Wiggins
with 15 and Lotchin with 14.3.
Fifth-place finisher Fred Battle
received 13.8 percent.
In Hillsborough, Frank M. Shef
field defeated incumbent Lucius
M. Cheshire Jr. in the mayor's
race, 478-386.
And in the race for the three
available seats on the Hillsborough
Board of Commissioners, Allen A.
Lloyd, Horace Johnson and
Rachel S. Stevens were winners.
Lloyd, an incumbent, had 398
votes; Johnson, 352, and Stevens,
also an incumbent, 330. E. Vic
Knight finished fourth among nine
candidates with 319 votes.
Four seats were open on the
Chapel Hill-Carrboro Board of
Education. Wiggins was the only
incumbent to seek re-election, as
three other board members, in
cluding Chairman Edwin Caldwell
Jr., chose not to run again.
Board members serve four-year
terms and choose their chairman
after taking office.
During the campaign, Baker,
president of the PTA council,
stressed her experience as a parent
volunteer in the school system. She
won the governor's 1983 School
Volunteer Award for Orange
County.
Horn, who taught math at
Chapel Hill High School for 21
years, said she would provide the
board with a teacher's perspective.
Wiggins, assistant vice
chancellor and associate dean of
student affairs, has served on the
board since 1979.
And Lotchin was the last of the
five candidates to file for the board
election. -

The first meeting of a new Cam
pus Governing Council task force
on the integration of campus hous
ing Tuesday resulted in a basic
framework which will be used to
provide recommendations to
University administrators.
The task force is headed by
Angie Robbins, housing chairper
son for the CGC. Representatives
from the CGC's Housing commit
tee, the Residence Hall Associa
tion, the Black Student Movement
and the residence halls are
deliberating what, if anything,
should be done about the distribu
tion of the black student popula
tion in campus housing.
Three main ideas were introduc
ed and will be elaborated on when
the committee meets again next
Wednesday:
The integration of pre
orientation and orientation.
Expansion of the roommate
questionnaire that incoming
freshmen fill out on their housing,
application.
Improving interracial residence
hall programs.
Robbins described how each
idea could be implemented. "We
can just start from day one, Rob
bins said. "We just need to
facilitate action between pre
orientation and orientation."
Concerning the questionnaire
about student's housing
preferences, Robbins said it could
be more lengthy and more detailed.
"Now, all it asks is whether or not
you smoke, and about
disabilities," she said.
Regarding programs in the
residence halls, Robbins said that
students could be given a choice of
attending something from a dif
ferent culture, therefore learning
more about another race.
Everyone on the task force was
opposed to forced integration in
residence halls.
"I don't think that by changing
where people live, peoples' at
titudes can change," RHA presi
dent Mark Dalton said.
"As far as moving a whole suite
(from South Campus) to North
Campus, I don't think that would
work," said Vic Doggette, a CGC
representative.
Robbins said that the group
hoped to take their ideas to Univer
sity administrators for considera
tion. "The ultimate goal is to make a
list of recommendations to take
first, to the Department of Hous
ing, then second to the administra
tion," she said.
The CGC started looking into
the issue, Robbins said, when the
University Relations Committee
discussed it earlier this year, and
when several columns on the issue,
appeared in The Daily Tar Heel.
Robbins also said that the ad
ministration's position was very
open, but their opinion was that
the students needed to come up
with a specific proposal.
The possibility of a student
survey had been discussed, Rob
bins said.
Besides the committee's work on
the issue, there will be an open
forum in Great Hall November
21, which will include several
speakers and will provide an op
portunity for students to voice
their thoughts on the matter.
"I think we are on the right
track," Robbins said. "This is a
very logical step. We didn't say
We are going to take one ap
proach.' We decided to assume dif
ferent routes simultaneously to
achieve the same goals," she said.
