But some students unhappy about the decision said they would pursue the case. : Brady, who did not claim the cost of the shirts on his campaign expense report, said he should not be held accountable for the "David Brady for SBP" T-shirts worn by his Kappa Sigma fraternity brothers because he did not know about the shirts in advance. Brady and opponent Bryan Hassel made the student body president runoff election to be held next Tuesday. ". . . (The shirts were) a big surprise," Brady said. "I went to my seat in the Clemson game, and there were some of my brothers with 'Brady for president shirts." After the election Tuesday night, Max Lloyd and Vince DiCello filed a formal protest with the Elections Board about the T-shirts on behalf of SBP candidate Jack Zemp. Zemp, third in the race, would get into a runoff with Hassel if Brady were disqualified. Bruce Lillie, chairman of the Elections Board, upheld Brady's position, saying, "Officially, I'm not going to disqualify David Brady." He said Brady had spoken with him last semester about the possibility of the T-shirts appearing. Zemp said he was upset about Lillie's decision because he felt Brady was getting away with unfair campaign practices. "I feel the ruling is wrong not because it puts me in or out of the election, but because I think it's wrong," he said. "It violates the ethics that all of us should have been following. I definitely believe . . . (the ruling) is going to be pursued." If the T-shirts are included in Brady's expenses, he could go over the $420 spending limit for SBP candidates and be disqualified, depending on the cost of the shirts. Brady currently claims $375.86 as his campaign expenses. The dispute over whether to include the shirts in Brady's expenses concerns whether he was responsible for making sure the shirts weren't worn after he knew about them. Lillie said the laws were too ambiguous to force Brady to take responsibility for the shirts' cost. "I'm wondering what David could really do to tell someone else not to wear something, especially if they're not associated with the campaign," he said. '"Is he supposed to steal the shirts or say, 'Hey, guys, don't wear it?' Someone could make false T shirts under the same situation, and it would put the candidate over (the spending limit)." According to Lillie, the relevant clause in the election laws is the one that says: "Any gratuities or services given for or on behalf of a candidate must have prior consent from such candidate to be considered a campaign expense. If discovered - prior to the election, any gratuities must be returned within twenty-four (24) hours of discovery or shall be deemed campaign expenditures." Lillie said he interpreted the law as meaning it was the responsibility of the Elections Board to discover the T-shirts and notify Brady that he needed to remove them. Because the Elections Board did not do this, Lillie . said, Brady cannot be held responsible. But Andrew Sutherland, Elections Board chair man two years ago, said he disagreed with Lillie's interpretation of the clause. "He's (Brady) got 24 hours if the T-shirts were discovered before the campaign or it's considered a campaign expenditure," he said. "Technically, (before the elections) he didn't have to do anything until the board told him, but after the elections, he's responsible for the expenditures of those materials. "1 think I would have held the campaign responsible," Sutherland said. ". . . (Lillie's decision) was based on his interpretation of the law. I read the law differently. I think a lot of people do." y" VMMW . ' - 4"".. L f wis y y y- X y ,x - y y y ?";:s y -yy s ... :,vir-- i"". x y - y y , i . y ...

AtRAIoiroinig caitLoses (fetalbainice By LORETTA GRANTHAM City Editor An unidentified woman was kidnapped from Franklin Street and sexually assaulted Wednesday afternoon, according to Chapel Hill police. The armed assailant, an unidentified male in his 30s, was still at large late Wednesday night, desk officer Cathy Williams said. Police would not say whether the woman was a UNC student. She was kidnapped between 1 and 2 p.m. near University Presbyterian Church, 209 E. Franklin St., Williams said. The kidnapper, armed with a handgun, drove the woman to another location and sexually assaulted her, according to police reports. She was then released. Details of her release and a description of the suspect's vehicle were not available Wednesday night. An admissions representative at N.C. Memorial Hospital could not say whether the woman had been admitted. Police said further information would be available today. By SUZANNE JEFFRIES Staff Writer A disturbance in the ARA director's office in Lenoir Hall last Friday resulted in University police issuing a trespass notice to a former manager, according to police reports. A discharged Lenoir Hall employee raised a disturbance because ARA refused to continue to pay . for his parking permit, t according to the report. No axrest was made after the trespassing notice was issued. Larry J. Graves, former manager of the Commons, said in a telephone interview Monday that he had been firpd and escorted from Lenoir Friday afternoon. The day before being fired, Graves said, he had given his two week notice of retirement because he was dissatisfied with the ARA management team's treatment of employees. The ARA management demands an unfair amount of work from employees in relation to hours and pay, Graves said. "I felt that I was abused being a part of the management team," he said. Graves said that while at work Friday, he had received a call to come upstairs to ARA Food Service Director Connie Branch's office. When he went into the office, Graves said, Branch, ARA District Manager Hoyt Taylor and a University police officer were present. He said he had been told that because of his unacceptable actions and two-week notice, ARA would pay him in cash for the remaining two weeks but not allow him to work. Then the officer escorted him from Lenoir Hall. Branch said in an interview Wednesday that he had no comment about the incident because it was a personnel matter. He said that as of Thursday, Graves had resigned as manager of the Commons. Taylor could not be reached for comment. The parking permit reported in the police record was not mentioned when Graves asked management to define his unacceptable actions, he said. "I couldn't get an answer from them about why my actions were .unacceptable," he said. ..." Graves said ARA had paid for his parking -permit-when he was hired. He' said he had asked the police officer who escorted him from the office if he had to return his parking permit. The officer told him that he could turn it in or mail it in later, Graves said. Graves said he had decided to resign when another manager criticized one of his employee's work performance as being "no damn good." "I knew better," he said. Graves said he felt that his race had been behind the discharge and escort from Lenoir by police. He said he knew of two other incidents in which former ARA managers at the University had given a two-week notice and were allowed to stay and work. Police were not involved in either incident, he said, and both men were white. Sgt. Ned Comar, security officer for the University police, said in an interview . Wednesday that issuing a trespass notice was not unusual for University police. "This is generally what happens when someone is interrupting the general flow of things at this institution," he said. Police approach the situation with a neutral disposition, Comar said. "We try to be, and we are, fair-based on what's happening in a given situation," he said. "We don't favor faculty, staff or students." He said a police officer must hear one party ask another to leave the premises before a trespass notice can be issued. Mary Smith, a supervisor in the Commons, said Graves had told her Friday morning that h$ J)adve4i,sai4 thavhe.vad.corfl.e back later that afternoon to tell her goodbye and that that was all she knew about the incident. Other Commons employees were reticent to talk about Graves or Friday's incident. "The overall operation of ARA is not what it should be," Graves said. Management needs a better working relationship with employees so that hiring problems can be solved, he said. Graves said he had started work as manager of the Commons in September 1985. He said he had been commended for doing his job well but that his January 1986 job appraisal had rated his performance as marginal. On ARA's rating scale, exceptional is the highest ranking, satisfactory the middle, and anything below marginal is bad, he said. Graves said management had criticized his performance, saying he lacked control over his workers and paid too much attention to administrative paperwork instead of floor supervision.

Watts. In addition, Elections Board Chair man Bruce Lillie ruled Wednesday against an appeal made Tuesday night by Don Courtney and Jane Miskavage that called for a re-election in the Senior Class president and vice-president race. Courtney said he and Miskavage . would not appeal the Elections Board decision to the Student Supreme Court. Watts had said after the election Tuesday that he would call for a re election because off-campus students had voted in the RHA president race. But John Fanney, who placed third in the race, said Wednesday that he would not run in a re-election, and Watts decided to settle for a runoff. Fanney said, UI won't be running, because the way it stands now and seeing the actual results, there won't be any difference in the turnout. "My dropping out will save H.F. and Ray a lot of time as to what another election will mean," Fanney said. "The outcome would depend on if I chose to endorse anyone. My endorsement would mean that one person would get the votes that I had." Watts said: "I think that John's dropping out will have a great effect on the election, especially in Morrison, because that's where Ray lost big. I only wish I had some time, because I got no coverage in the . . . Daily Tar Heel for two days. "1 don't know who . . . (Fanney) is going to endorse," Watts said. "The last time I talked to him, he said he hadn't made up his mind about who to endorse." Lillie said the fact that off-campus students voted for RHA president probably did not have a great effect on the results, since the percentages of dorm votes were proportional to votes at all poll sites. To avoid counting off-campus votes in Tuesday's run-off, the Elections Board will have separate on- and off campus ballots, Lillie said. The RHA president race will appear only on the on-campus ballots. Miskavage and Courtney had called for a re-election on grounds that The Phoenix had failed to give them campaign coverage and that non juniors could have voted for Senior Class officers. Lillie said he had made his decision against the appeal by subtracting the number of non-junior registered votes at each polling site from David Venable and Michele Killough's total winning See RHA page 4 CulMml emhanme aMmMimM ofiimew dotrim By JOY THOMPSON Staff Writer The Department of Housing will allot 75 percent of the space in the new Catherine Carmichael dormitory to undergraduates next fall and has reserved spaces for special living-learning houses sponsored by the romance languages and German departments and the Pharmacy School. The air-conditioned dorm will be the first new dorm on campus since Hinton James opened in 1968. Any off- or on-campus student who turns in his housing contract and $75 pre-payment before 5 p.m. Friday can be considered for the new dorm. The remaining spaces will be reserved for new students. Students will be assigned to Carmichael based on the results of the second of two preliminary drawings, which will be held Tuesday, Feb. 18. Off-campus students may apply to live in Carmi chael. If they are unsucessful in the preliminary drawing, they may enter the Feb. 26 waiting-list drawing. Housing Director Wayne Kuncl said Tuesday that his department was considering all students for Carmichael because the opening of a new dorm was such a rare event. But after the first year, he said, the department will return to its regular policy where off-campus students can get back on campus only through the waiting-list drawing. Kuncl said housing administrators were considering placing students into four pilot living-learning houses in the new dorm. The French and Spanish houses will be sponsored by the romance languages department, the German house by the German department and the health sciences pre-prpfessional house by George Cocolas, associate dean of the School of Pharmacy. Kuncl said there had been such houses on campus in the past, and the new dorm opening would give the University a chance to experiment with them again. L.D. Newman, who helped the housing department coordinate the programs with the academic depart ments, said faculty members initiated the programs. "We were very excited about the number of faculty members who came forward and were ready to take on the extra responsibility," Newman said Tuesday. Faculty members from the participating departments are responsible for selecting the students and running the programs, she said. Students interested in living in the houses should either inform the housing department or contact faculty members. Faculty members already have recruited students. Newman said. But even students who are selected for the houses must indicate on their contracts whether they want to live in Carmichael, she said. "If pre-selected students don't get into Carmichael ... (after the drawing), housing can still make arrangments for them," Newman said. "No one has any squatters rights on any of the the rooms at this point." Eight men and eight women will be selected for each of the language programs, and 24 men and 24 woman will be chosen for the health sciences program, Kuncl said. Sidney Smith, chairman of the German department, said the students for the German house were selected over the past two and a half weeks through a "fairly demanding screening process." Students were chosen on the basis of academic achievement and motivation to learn, Smith said. The German house would be "the next best thing to living in the country," Smith said. "It would be an environment where the students would speak German on a constant basis." The house would have students just returning from Germany and others preparing to visit Germany, he said. In addition to having German programs and discussions in the dorm. Smith said, the German See NEW DORM page 4 The naked truth of it is, I have no shirt Shakespeare ('Love's Labour's Lost')
