Finance Committee recommends average
cuts of student organizations 50-75 percent
By JANET OLSON
Staff Writer
The Campus Governing Council
Finance Committee will present a balanc
ed budget of about $224,000 to the full
CGC for approval Saturday.
At a marathon budget hearing
Wednesday night which concluded
Thursday morning at about 5:45, the
Finance Committee reduced its previous
appropriations to student organizations
by about $39,000. As expected, the
reduction meant further cuts for most
student organizations. Average cuts rang
ed from 50-to-75 percent.
Committee members failed to balance
the budget during first budget hearings of
the 35 groups requesting funding. The
committee then selected organizations for
further discussion and made further cuts.
Tim Newman, chairman of the hear
ing, said that because all student
organization representatives had left by
the time the committee held its second
discussion, these groups would be con
tacted before the second proposals were
added to the budget bill.
The committee recommended no ap
propriations go to the Sexuality Educa
tion and Counseling Service.
Newman, said Thursday, committee
members decided SECS services overlap
ped with those of the Contraceptive
Health Education Clinic and Student
Health Services.
But SECS co-director Nancy Dorer
said Thursday she felt the committee had
acted on misconceptions about SECS.
Dorer said SECS provides services that
CHEC and SHS do not, including peer

Charging that the N.C. Senate is run
by three individuals and that a major
problem exists in getting progressive
legislation passed, 16th District senate
candidate Don Stanford said Thursday
night he would stand up and fight to pass
such legislation.
Stanford, a Chapel Hill attorney,
spoke at a candidate's forum on women's
issues at the Community Church on
Purefoy Road, sponsored jointly by the
Orange County Day Care Coalition,
Children's Services News, Womens
Health Counseling, the Rape Crisis
Center and Orange County Women's
Center.
About 100 people, mostly women, at
tended the forum where U.S. Congress,
N.C. Senate, and Orange County Com
missioner candidates spoke on women's
and children's issues. In attendance were
Democrat Howard Lee, a candidate for
the 4th District congressional seat now
held by Rep. Ike Andrews, while Joan
Ewing, administrative assistant to An
drews, spoke on the congressman's
behalf.
N.C. Senate candidates participating
were incumbent Sens. Wanda Hunt,
D-Moore, and Russell Walker,
D-Randolph. Stanford is competing with
Hunt and Walker for one of the two
available seats from the four-county
district of Orange, Chatham, Moore and
Randolph.
Candidates for Orange County Com
missioners included incumbent chairman
Don Willhoit, John Gastineau, Larry
Talbert and Moses Carey, in which two
seats will be filled.
Discussion of the state Senate leader
' ship came up when a citizen asked the
candidates of their stands on the state's
ratification of the Equal Rights Amend
ment. "The ERA passed the (N.C.) House
under (Speaker) Carl Stewart's
leadership," Stanford said in support of
ERA. "He could change the attitude of
the Senate as lieutenant governor, but we
also need a change of the legislature's
body." Stewart is a Democratic can
didate for lieutenant governor.
"I won't just vote for ERA, but I'll be
a strong leader pushing it until it is
ultimately passed," Lee said. "The
feminization of poverty is becoming an
issue women and children are becom
ing a new poverty group in America,
because we aren't giving them equal pay

outreaches to both University-affiliated
and non-affiliated groups. In addition,
SECS offers 24-hour call-in service and a
daily walk-in service without waiting
lines, Dorer said.
Dorer said she planned to attend the
CGC meeting Saturay in an attempt to
get her organization funded, but she
feared other groups might resent her ask
ing for money which would essentially be
taken from their budgets.
WXYC also suffered a major budget
cut, as the committee voted to recom
mend the station do away with its United
Press International wire service, thereby
allowing a $4,200 cut in WXYC's budget.
Newman said the committee's justifica
tion for the cut was that WXYC could air
local and campus news rather than wire
service news.
"I don't think the station's mission
was hurt by that cut," Newman said.
"They can work the local news beat a lit
tle more instead of just ripping and
reading wire reports."
WXYC station manager Bill Burton
said Thursday the loss of the wire service
would cut the station's staff in half. The
WXYC news staff does not have time to
research news stories, Burton said. In ad
dition, staff members would not receive
a physical product of their efforts, he
said, and the experience they might gain
would be insubstantial.
"That experience wouldn't be worth
s-," Burton said.
Burton said his only options without
enough student government funding
would be to find grants, raise funds or
turn the station into a radio jukebox.
Burton said he was writing an amend

House candidate Howard Lee spoke
for equal work."
Lee said accessibility is an issue and
pledged to be highly visible among
members of the district. In the past, Lee
said Andrews has not been an assertive
and accessible congressman.
Ewing offered a different view, saying
Andrews "has been accessible and highly
visible to this district. He knows this
district better than anyone I know and
has been very responsible in representing
it."
Ewing defended Andrews' record of
assisting with passage of the Missing
Children's Act, the Child Care Informa
tion and Referral Act and support for the
ERA.

ment to the budget bill that the CGC
reinstate funding for the wire service. If
Student Government refused to provide
enough funds for the station, WXYC
would be less accountable to students
because it would be using less of their
money, he said.
Student Television suffered a 50 per
cent cut in its request for Student
Government funding. STV asked that the
committee allocate $5,985 to cover opera
tional expenses. The committee voted to
appropriate $2,993 and requested that
STV raise the remaining $2,992.
Newman said committee members
decided to halve the request, because they
felt students had already voted to loan
STV $22,000, a relatively large portion of
Student Government funds.
Newman said there was heated debate
at the hearing between the committee and
STV representatives. Newman said STV
Chairman John Wilson argued fund
raising had already been allocated to
meeting equipment expenses. STV will
receive $15,000 and $20,000 grants from
undisclosed sources.
Wilson declined to comment on the
committee's appropriation.
Among other budget cuts, the commit
tee voted to cut the Student Consumer
Action Union's Underground Course
Guide and to cut the Executive Branch's
presidential and treasurer scholarships by
50 percent. No capital expenditures were
approved.

The Chapel Hill Police Department
said Thursday that no rapes had been
reported since the March 28 attack on a
woman near Umstead Park.
Mary Ann Chap, director of the
Orange County Rape Crisis Center, also
said no rapes have been reported.
Lt. Ralph Pendergraph of the Crime

Israelis storm Arab-hijacked bus

ISRAELI-OCCUPIED GAZA STRIP
Arab guerrillas hijacked a bus carrying
more than 30 Israelis and sped toward the
Egyptian border, but Israeli troops stop
ped it short of the frontier and stormed
aboard early today, a military spokesman
reported.
"There was a storming and I cannot
tell you as yet who is alive and who is
dead," the spokesman said in Tel Aviv:
Other sources said two hijackers were
killed. '
Sources and witnesses reported that
Israeli soldiers shot out the tires of the
bus and punctured the fuel tank, then
surrounded the immobilized vehicle.
They said several people were wounded
and others were held hostage on the bus
by three or four armed guerrillas.
Financial aid
By DIANA BOSNIACK
Staff Writer
A proposal currently before a House
subcommittee to extend the Higher
Education Act of 1965 may determine
whether college students can receive more
money from federal government Pell
Grants beginning in 1985.
If the bill passes the Post-Secondary
Education Subcommittee, Congress then
will decide whether to reauthorize the
Higher Education Act this year or delay
its extension until next year. The act ex
pires in 1985.
"It's the omnibus legislation that con
trols all federal aid to higher education,"
Marsha Wice, a staff member of the sub
committee, said this week. The bill is like
ly to pass the subcommittee and gain ap
proval on the House floor but would
face stiffer opposition in its Senate ver
sion, Wice said.

"We're not doing the same thing that
we were doing before," Pendergraph
said. "We're trying not to get locked into
the point (where) we're predictable
enough for him (the rapist) to alter the
time and the day of the week that he
operates," he said.
Pendergraph said it is possible the
rapist is being cautious because of the re
cent publicity, which was generated by
the police department's news conference
on April 4.
Rape attacks are not always predictable
in cycles, Pendergraph said.
He said 15 extra officers have been
assigned to the case just from his depart
ment. In addition, he said, the State
Bureau of Investigation is helping with
the investigation.
The bus was seized about 7:30 p.m. be
tween Ashdod and the Mediterranean
port of Ashkelon, 30 miles south of Tel
Aviv.
Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir con
firmed the hijacking.
The military sources said the Arabs
boarded the bus, then pulled weapons
and forced the driver to take it to the
Egyptian border in the occupied Gaza
Strip.
The British Broadcasting Corp.
reported that 41 people were aboard the
bus when a band of at least five hijackers
took it over. It said seven passengers
escaped, but five of them were wounded,
and a pregnant woman was released later.

Paul Simon, D-Ill., seeks to tie the
amount of federal aid a college or uni

number of students the institution has
who receive Pell Grants or guaranteed
student loans. Institutions with a higher
number of Pell Grants or GSL recipients
would receive less money under the stu
dent aid block grant program.
The measure, in general, would expand
college aid programs, streamline federal
student aid and try to help more poor
students attend college, Wice said. If ex
tended, the Higher Education Act would
provide about $4 billion in federal student
aid.

Fewer N-4
lot spaces
available
By MIKE ALLEN
Staff Writer
The number of N-4 parking permits
sold for the 1984-85 school year will be
cut from 423 to 212, and none will be sold
to off-campus students, according to .
Larry Davis, leader of the Student Park
ing Task Force.
Because of construction of a new com
puter science building behind Carroll
Hall, 140 faculty spaces will be moved
from the lot behind Carroll Hall to N-4
and N-5 lots on North Campus, Davis
said Wednesday.
Davis said 423 permits were sold this
year for 353 N-4 spaces. He said there
would be no overselling for the coming
year.
Davis said the approximately 180 N-4
spaces allotted to off-campus students
this year would be redistributed on South
Campus next year, either in the Hinton
James lot, F-lot, or possibly the Craige
lot. One benefit of the new plan would be
an additional 140 spaces would be conve
nient for off-campus students who study
in Davis Library.
Robert E. Sherman, director of securi
ty services for University Police, said a
plan was being considered to give
graduate students, seniors and juniors
priority in permit distribution for North
Campus lots. The rising sophomore class
will, for the most part, be sold South
Campus permits.
Student Body President Paul Parker
said the new Student Activity Center lot
could be used for commuter parking, but
no resident permits would be sold for the
lot. Parker said the lot would have to be
cleared on game days for Rams Club
parking. .The new lot will give the Rams
Club an extra 1,000 spaces in addition to
the lot behind Kenan Stadium.
Charles Antle, associate vice
chancellor of business, said parking per
mit prices for the 1984-85 year would be
increased by $1 per month, or $9 per per
mit for the entire year. Parker said the in
crease in price would help fund an in
crease in shuttle bus activity to and from
South Campus.
"We are working on a comprehensive
plan to prevent these same problems from
appearing in the future," Parker said. He
said there had not been a successful plan
in the past, but there is a good chance a
solution could finally be reached.
Both Davis and Parker urged students
to register for parking permits as soon as
possible. Registration runs through May
