CHARLOTTE Democratic Gov.
Jim Hunt and Republican Sen. Jesse
Helms faced off for their third debate
yesterday, with Helms accusing Hunt
of long-time support for liberals and
Hunt accusing Helms of failing to
support President Reagan.
Helms, in a question to Hunt, asked
about his support of Democratic
presidential candidate Fritz Mondale,
vice-presidential candidate Geraldine
Ferraro and Sen. Ted Kennedy, D
Mass. "People know that I'm supporting
Fritz Mondale for president, and that
may not be popular now, but I'm a
Democrat," Hunt responded. "I'm part
of a new generation of Democrats that
we know here in the South . . . people
who believe in three things balanced
budgets, economic growth and racial
justice and people working together.
"Those are the things that I subscribe
to regardless of who's president," Hunt
said.
"YouVe been talking about your
support for the president," Hunt said.

N. C. Student Legislature
argues death penalty issue
By MARY BENTON HUD GENS
Staff Writer :
After three 20-minute rounds of
debate, delegates of the North Carolina
Student Legislature voted 87-28 to
reject a resolution abolishing North
Carolina's death penalty.
The death penalty resolution, spon
sored by Steve Epstein, a sophomore
from Oceanside, N.Y., would have
recommended that the N.C. General
Assembly replace the death penalty with
a mandatory life imprisonment sentence
without parole.
The resolution was one of six debated
during NCSL's September Interim
Council held here Saturday and
Sunday.
Epstein said he was not surprised the
resolution was rejected.
"I did not have realistic hopes of this
resolution passing," Epstein said,
adding that 70 percent of North Carol
inians approved of the death penalty.
"I was hoping to get at least 20 people
to feel the way I did. The fact that I
got 28 people to vote affirmatively is
good."
While most of the delegates rejected
the proposal, the majority of the high
school seniors interning in the council
voted in favor of the resoiution.
"I was really satisfied with the interns'
vote because they voted 7-5 in favor,
and that might be an indication that
the younger people of this state are
starting to question the death penalty,"
Epstein said.
He said that under current North
Carolina law, a person convicted of
first-degree murder can be sentenced to
death or to life imprisonment with

Thomas Wolfe.
When Phillip Hettleman was growing
up in Goldsboro in the 1900s, he
dreamed of attending the University in
Chapel Hill.
His family had little money. But
Hettleman knew the University offered
a scholarship to the outstanding senior
in each public high school in the state.
Before he entered high school, Hettle
man resolved to win that scholarship.
And by graduation day in 1916, he had
won it.
With that resolution Hettleman
began a long relationship with the
University. The relationship has been
a fond and graceful one, similar to that
between family members. This year,
Hettleman gave a $250,000 endowed
professorship to the School of Business
Administration. He also plans to

party loyalties
in supporting President Reagan.
"The only senator who suppported
the president less than you did among
Republicans was your friend Lowell
Weicker of Connecticut," Hunt said.
Weicker and Helms have been vocal
opponents inside the Republican Party.
"I'd say you haven't been a very good
supporter of our president."
Later, Helms again said Hunt
suported liberals, tying him to Walter
Mondale.
Hunt said he was a Democrat, but
realized the party had made mistakes
in overspending and taxing people too
much.
"I know you're very worried that we
have some Democrats who are conser
vative," Hunt said. You'd like to paint
all Democrats as liberals, but I remind
you, senator, that Thomas Jefferson
(whom Helms frequently quotes) is the
father of our party."
Helms said, "I'm glad there are
conservative Democrats. They sup
ported me in 1972 and 1978, and I think
they'll support me again this year."
Helms also challenged Hunt to
appoint a special prosecutor to inves
tigate Hunt's "use of state property for
political purposes."
eligibility for parole after 20 years.
"The death penalty is cruel and
unusual punishment, and thus violates
the Eighth Amendment of the Consti
tution," Epstein said in the first round
of debate.
Another UNC delegate agreed,
adding that almost every other civilized
country in the world had abolished the
death penalty, and thus it could be
interpreted as unusual punishment by
today's standards.
"It's murder when you put someone
to death," said UNC delegate Reggie
Holley, a sophomore from Benson.
"Two wrongs certainly dont constitute
a right."
Other delegates argued that life
imprisonment without parole was even
more cruel than putting a criminal to
death.
"It doesn't make sense to me to
rehabilitate someone just to leave him
in jail," said UNC senior Ray Shimer
from Kinston.
Religious arguments also surfaced in
the debate.
" Thou shalt not kill is the surest
of the Ten Commandments," Epstein
said, adding that the greater the sin the
greater the need for repentance.
A UNC-Charlotte delegate disputed
Epstein's religious argument, stating
that by Old Testament law, Jews were
under obligation to put to death those
who committed certain crimes.
Epstein's final reason for abolishing
the death penalty was that execution
is irreversible.
"There is no way to remedy an
occasional mistake," he said. "We all
make mistakes. No one is perfect."
establish a yearly award for the out
standing young faculty member at the
University.
But back in 1916, there were com
plications. Even though the scholarship
to UNC was his, he could not use it.
"I had to support my family, and
worked for two
years, "he said last
week. After helping
to shore up the family
finances, he wrote to
the president of the
University to ask if
the scholarship was
still available. It was.
He came to the
campus in 1918.

"Having had that great desire (to attend
the University) for so long, it was like
being in heaven," he said.
He was a member of the first class
in the new School of Commerce. And
he was active in campus life in the
debating society, as an editor of the
Carolina Magazine, and as business
manager of The Daily Tar Heel.

. C. bombs
By FRANK KENNEDY
Sports Editor
FOXBORO, Mass. It took only
one quarter of football for the North
Carolina Tar Heels to find out what
all the fuss is about around Boston these
days. And Doug Flutie, the Boston
College quarterback who has become
the toast of Massachusetts, spent four
quarters showing UNC what it's all
about Saturday night in Sullivan
Stadium.
Flutie shredded every coverage the
UNC defense utilized, throwing for 354
yards and a school-record six touch
downs as the Eagles broke away early
and were never challenged, coasting to
a 52-20 victory.
The Tar Heels, who scored all of then
points in the second half, dropped to
0-2, the worst start since 1969. B.C.
moved to 3-0 and has a three-week
break before its next encounter against
Temple.
Flutie, the 5-9 senior who was third
in the country in the Heisman trophy
balloting last year and is a top candidate
this year, had absolutely no problems
with a UNC defense that opted not to
rush him. He completed 28 of 38 passes,
had no interceptions, and most of the
incompletions were very catchable balls.
The Eagles moved the ball at will in
the first half to build an insurmountable
28-0 by the intermission. UNC's offense,
the guy was a little nuts. He wrote
everything too long. He went to the
point of throwing advertising out (of
the paper)."
At the time, the paper was losing
money, even with the talents of Wolfe
and Managing Editor Jonathan
Daniels. Hettleman went to Charles
Woolen, a University business manager,
with a proposition. He asked that he
be allowed to take control of the paper's
finances. He guaranteed Woolen there
would be no losses, but said the paper
and he should keep the profits.
A deal was struck. Hettleman took
control. And the DTH became
profitable.
After graduation, Hettleman brought
the same finacial magic to the invest
ment companies he worked for and the
one he owned. But despite living in New
York, he has maintained ties to the
University and has returned often. His
gifts tothe University include a rare
portrait of his old colleague Wolfe.
"I love the University," he said. "I
don't think there's any school that
compares with it." Hettleman said that
although he has strong ties to Columbia
University where he earned his master's
B
and you change your world.
The University earned it title as Beer-Drinking Capital of the World once again last week during the Phi
Delta Theta beer chug. Here, freshman Adam Hill from Morganton gulped the ounces down but was unable
to help his Phi Gamma Delta teammates. The Beta Theta Pi's took the fraternity division crown.
Heels; Flutie
led by sophomore quarterback Kevin
Anthony, sputtered on numerous occa
sions and missed two field goals before
the half. Anthony went the distance for
UNC, as freshman Mark Maye was
sidelined with a sore shoulder.
In the second half, UNC moved the
ball more efficiently, as tailback Ethan
Horton broke loose on a 79-yard
touchdown run and had 162 yards on
the game. But B.C. countered every
UNC score, effectively killing any
chance of a dramatic rally.
UNC coach Dick Crum, although
disappointed, was anything but sur
prised. "Right now we are not in their
class," Crum said of his young team,
adding that he wasn't surprised B.C.
scored so many points. "(B.C.) had great
execution and really played well. From
the way their offense is orchestrated,
they may well be the best we've ever
played. WeVe played teams that are
bigger and stronger, but (B.C. coach
Jack Bicknell) does an outstanding job
with this team."
The Tar Heels chose to lay off Flutie,
fearing that a blitzing defense would
force him out of the pocket and allow
him to make the big plays on the
scramble, something that has become
his trademark.
"We just didnt think blitzing was the
way to go," said defensive coordinator
Denny Marcin. "We had a couple of
degree in finance, UNC has always been
special to him.
Roy Holsten is a professor of business
administration and a friend of Hettle
mann's for 25 years. Holsten said, "He
(Hettleman) feels his life was changed
so dramatically here that he feels he
could never equal what he received
(from the University)."
Chancellor Christopher C. Fordham
III said, "To achieve what he has and
to be as generous as he has, it's an
inspiration."
Hettleman, 85, is still active in
business and University life. Holsten
said Hettleman had rarely missed a
commencement in the last 25 years.
Jay Klompmaker, a professor of
business administration and also a
friend of Hettleman's, said he was a very
successful businessman, but not of the
ruthless variety. "He values friendship,"
Klompmaker said. "When he measures
a person, he looks for substance. What
is important to Phil is what type of
person you are."
The two professors portray their
friend as a Renaissance man, one who
is as conversant in the arts and literature
as he is in business.
puts on a show for
backers rush on occasion. When we
were covering too deep, Flutie hit the
outside guy, and he hit underneath us.
"He's a threat running the ball and
passing the ball, and that makes it
tough."
But Flutie was not the entire B.C.
offense, which rolled up 612 total yards.
Tailback Troy Stratford found the open
hole and rushed 109 yards on just 17
carries, including the first five plays of
the game when he got the Eagles out
of a hole at their own one-yard line.
"Troy Stratford makes something
happen every time he touches the ball,"
Flutie said. "We like to call him The
Producer because he always comes
through when called upon." Flutie was
proud of his performance, but admitted
there was an added incentive. "We had
a little revenge in mind," he said,
referring to the 56-14 drubbing the Tar
Heels handed B.C. three years ago in
Kenan Stadium.
"But execution is the bottom line,"
he said. "We did that well. No matter
what coverage they wanted, no matter
how many disguises they did, they've
gotta end up in something and you're
going to get somebody open. We do
a lot of things that make them adjust.
We dictated what kind of coverages they
had."
Flutie connected on TD passes of
eight, six, 14, four, 26 and 10 yards.

The School of Business Administra
tion has recieved a $250,000 endowment
from a member of that school's first
graduating class.
Phillip Hettleman, a 1921 graduate,
gave the award as a professorship. The
endowment was announced Sept. 14 at
a dinner honoring Hettlemen at the
Morehead House.
Hettlemen said last week that he was
also establishing a yearly award for the
University's outstanding young faculty
member. This award, Hettleman said,
will go to the young faculty member
who shows the most work and
dedication.
The faculty award, he said, is similar
to the one he established at Columbia
University, where he earned a master's
degree in finance.
Hettleman, a native of Goldsboro, is
an investment broker in New York. In
1977, he received UNC's Distinguished
Alumnus Award.'

His longest pass covered 28 yards, a fact
that Marcin said could be one of the
game's few bright spots.
"We didn't give up the big play," he
said. "Shoot, they let Horton loose for
79 yards in one play."
If the Tar Heels ever had a chance
to make a game of this, that opportunity
came in the first five minutes. B.C.
started the game from its own one-yard
line after returner Kevin Sullivan
touched the opening kickoff on its way
out of boudns. Five plays later, the
Eagles punted. UNC moved down to
the B.C. 25, but the drive stalled and
Lee Gliarmis missed a field goal wide.
The Eagles then rolled to two easy
touchdowns, packing away UNC for the
night.
"That was a great opportunity to set
some momentum," Anthony said. "But
it just didnt wourk out."
Anthony said the UNC defense got
in trouble because ii spent so much time
on the field. "We were having too many
three-play drives in the first half and
the defense was going back on the field
too much.
"But we've got a really good offence
and it's important that we come back
next week and put together two halves
of football. The last two weeks weVe
really played only one good half."
Horton's performance was oversha
dowed by that of Flutie. Horton
accounted for 225 of UNC's 442 yards.
$250,000 gift
John Evans, dean of the School of
Business Administration, said the
professorship had a special meaning for
the school. "It is a very meaningful vote
of confidence in the school to have
someone who was involved in the first
(graduating) class helping to assure the
school's high quality," he said.
The endowment, Evans said, will go
to an outstanding member of the
school's faculty or will be used to attract
a new professor of national reputation.
It will be awarded in 1985, he said.
Chancellor Christopher C. Ford ham
III said, "The University is very proud
to have a professorship that carries the
name of such a distinguished and
energetic business leader and a man who
has been one of UNC's most loyal
alumni over more than 60 years."
Hettleman enrolled at the University
in 1918. He became editor of the
Carolina Magazine and the business
manager of The Daily Tar Heel.
