Last November, the UNC Board of Trustees upheld
a policy that condemned apartheid in South Africa
but continued to support investment there. Three major
private universities in the state follow almost identical
policies.
Duke University has recently made official state
ments against apartheid, and agreed to limit invest
ments in South Africa to those companies which adhere
to the Sullivan principles of racial equality, said Roger
Marshall, university secretary.
No action will follow the trustees' decision because
Duke University already has ceased investment in
companies in South Africa which do not follow the
Sullivan principles, Marshall said.
"It was a matter of going on record," he said.
The amount of Duke's investments in South Africa
varies day to day as financial managers handle the
funds, but the amount is "minimal,'' he said.
During their May meeting, the Duke trustees will
consider recommendations from a special committee
on social concerns which include setting a date for
divestment in all corporations doing business in South
Africa unless racial restrictions there are lifted, and
the establishment of scholarships for black South
African students.
The vote on total divestiture was delayed until May
in order to send the committee's report to the
university's faculty senate, Marshall said.
Wake Forest University is also following an official
policy of investing only in companies which follow
the Sullivan principles, said Russell Brantley, assistant
to the president and director of communications there.
There had been some students asking for total
divestment, Brantley said, but said he did not believe
the sentiment was widespread.
"Students are not that indifferent, but they're just
not that caught up in the issue," he said.
In October, Wake Forest Student Government's
Committee on Apartheid Research passed a resolution
supporting economic sanctions against South Africa
and recommended the university divest itself of
investments in companies which have not complied
with the Sullivan principles.
Brantley said he did not see any movement by Wake
Forest administration toward total divestment in
corporations operating in South Africa.
Davidson College also invests only in companies
which adhere to the Sullivan principles, said Robert
Davidson, college controller.
"We also check our financial lists and money
managers to make sure the managers are aware of
our policy," Davidson said.
Davidson said there had been some inquiries on the
college's investment policy by students, but no
widespread interest.
"There has been very little movement on this
campus," he said.

The UNC Marching Band, now
under the direction of the Division of
Student Affairs, may become affiliated
with the Music Department as early as
next year, Music Department Chair
man James W. Pruett said Monday.
Pruett said he had been talking
informally with Vice Chancellor and
Dean of Student Affairs Donald Boul
ton for several years about the change
but no definite decision would be made
on the-matter in the near future.
"For now, . . . (the proposed change)
is in cold storage," Pruett said.
Boulton said he thought the proposed
change would be a good idea. "It's a
common sense thing basically," he said.
"I think all parties are in agreement that
it is the best thing to do," said Boulton.
At one time, the band had been under
the Music Department's direction, but
about' 19 years ago that control was
transferred to Student Affairs, Boulton
said. He said he did not know the
reasons for the change.
Boulton said a large part of the band's
programming budget comes from the
Athletic Department, and said he
believed the Athletic Department would
continue to provide funding if the
change were to take place.
Pruett said the next couple of years
would be a good time for the change.
"It is a good time to consider this when
someone is retiring," he said. .
Boulton said Band Director John
Yesulaitis had indicated that he would
like to retire after next year.
Yesulaitis could not be reached for
comment Monday night.
Band member Chris Allman, a junior
from Greensboro, said he thought the
overall feeling among band members is
that they want whatever is best for the
band.

"I think that if it is better for the band
to move over to the music department,
we should," Allman said. "And if it is
better not to, we shouldn't," he said.
Band member Randy Masters, a
junior from North Wilkesboro, said he
felt there was room for improvement
in the band but he did not know if
transferring direction to the Music
Department would solve them.
He said the band had to borrow
instruments from Chapel Hill High
School and at least once had trouble
receiving money for lodging at an
women's soccer game.
OPEC'ssuspe
reflects di
From Associated Press reports
GENEVA OPEC oil ministers
suspended their emergency meeting
today to await a report from a
committee of oil market experts, the
cartel's president said.
Arturo Hernandez Grisanti of
Venezuela told reporters after a
three-hour morning session that the
three ministers expected to resume
their meeting on Tuesday.
The decision to temporarily sus
pend the meeting is a departure from
normal OPEC procedure. It was
seen as a sign of the sharp divisions
within the cartel on what strategy
might best prop up oil prices, which
have tumbled 50 percent since
December.
NASA to issue details
SPACE CENTER, Houston
NASA is releasing details on about
900 parts that are considered vital
ion of meeting
within cartel
to the safe operation of the space
shuttle, while two engineers explain
how the space agency developed this
"critical items list."
"Critical items" is a NASA term
for all of the hardware and software
components on the space shuttle that
must function for safe operation of
the craft.
Included on the list are the "crit
icality 1" items whose failure would
cause the loss of the spacecraft and
crew.
A second level of the items on the
list are called "criticality 1-R," which
are essential systems protected from
failure by redundant parts.
The difference between "criticality
1" and "criticality 1-R" has been a
major controversy in the investiga
tion of the Challenger accident.
Navy ship prepares to retrieve

If you are a student feeling guilty
about mom and dad funding your
Spring Break trip to Ft. Lauderdale,
work hard this summer and send them
on a trip to Italy.
A tour of historic Italian cities and
hill towns, sponsored by the General
Alumni Association, is available to
anyone interested, but it is a non-credit
tour geared for alumni or "friends of
the University," said Douglas S. Dib
bert, the executive director of G AA.
Although non-alumni are not
required to join the GAA in order to
go on the tour, Dibbert said they are
charged an extra $20, and they still end
up joining.
Dibbert said the GAA, which spon
sors many different trips, attempts to
tie the trips to the the various alumni
seminars held at UNC throughout the
year. The tours are ones that "you
(usually) couldn't go down to your local
travel agency and sign up for," Dibbert
said.
The itinerary for the two-week trip,
lasting from Oct. 15 until Oct.29, will
include extended stays in Rome, Flor
ence and Venice.
The places tour members will visit
include: the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican
Museum, San Marco, medieval cathed
rals, country markets, Medici Chapel,
St. Marks Square and the remains of
a Roman Theatre. Members also will
have leisure time for shopping and
individual sightseeing.
Dr. John W. Dixon, Jr., an art and
religion professor who wrote his thesis
on Italian art', said he will act as a
"resource person" during the trip.
Dixon said he was not the tour guide.
"Ill give talks in the hotels to prepare
them about what they will see," he said.
The Italian tour costs $2,300 per
person based on double occupancy and
flights from Raleigh-Durham Airport.
The price includes TWA round-trip
airfare, hotel, daily continental break
fast, several lunches and dinners, sight
seeing programs, optional excursions to
Sorrento and Pompei, all entrance fees,
trips, baggage handling and taxes.
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP)
A large salvage ship was ready to try
Monday to recover from the ocean floor
a 500-pound chunk of debris that could
be vital to the investigation into the
explosion of space shuttle Challenger.
The piece is a 4-by-5-foot section that
might be from the right solid rocket
booster, which is the chief suspect in
the accident that killed seven astronauts
on Jan. 28.
Photographs show the chunk con
tains part of the external tank attach
ment ring. If it is the right-hand rocket,
that ring was just 19 inches from the
joint between segments where the
explosion sequence is believed to have
started.
The salvage vessel already has one
large piece of a rocket booster on board,
a 6-by-18-foot chunk weighing 3,250
pounds, that was lifted Sunday.
"We still don't know if they are parts
of the left or right SRB,"said Lt. Cmdr.
Deborah Burnette, spokeswoman for
the Navy search and salvage operation.
Investigators have concentrated on a
joint between the bottom two segments
of the right booster. Launch photo
graphs show a puff of black smoke in
the area of the joint on lift-off and a
plume of flame spewing from the same
area 15 seconds Hefore the explosion.
Most of the cabin wreckage and
astronaut remains are already on shore,
sources close to the investigation have
said. Military pathologists were exa
mining and identifying the remains in
a laboratory at Cape Canaveral Air
Force Station. '
As the search continued, space center
workers were talking about a statement
issued Saturday night in which center
director Richard Smith criticized the
presidential commission probing the
accident.
Smith said the panel's actions could
lead to resignations of key NASA
officials that could cripple the space
program.
Moth sides in Contra dispute claim public favor
WASHINGTON (AP) Suppor
ters and foes of giving $100 million to
Nicaraguan rebels claimed Monday
that public support is running in their
favor,-but conceded .that aJ crucial
House vote later' in ' the " week' will be
close.
After special envoy Philip Habib
maintained that President Reagan's
proposal has strong support among
Central American officials, the White
House said calls and wires had shown
that by better than a 2-1 margin, people
were responding positively to Reagan's
nationally broadcast Sunday night
appeal for support for the aid program.
On Capitol Hill, however, House
Speaker Thomas P. O'Neill Jr., D
Mass., said calls and telegrams to his
office were showing public resistance to
Reagan's request to send, money to the
counterrevolutionaries fighting the
Sandinista government in Managua.
But Vice President George Bush,
appearing on NBC's "Today" show,
said, "I think we're going to win. It's
going to be close," but "I really honestly
feel we can" win.
The Democratic-controlled House is
scheduled to vote Thursday afternoon
on Reagan's program, which includes
$30 million for non-lethal items like
medicine and clothing, and $70 million
that could be used for military help. The
current program of $27 million in non
lethal aid expires March 31. 1
The Republican-dominated Senate
will : take up- the Contra aid plan on
Friday, Majority Leader Bob Dole, R
Kan., said.
At the White House, spokesman
Larry Speakes said that by 10:30
Monday morning, 1,952 calls and wires
had been received in support of Reagan,
while there were 799 against the
president's plan. O'Neill said phone calls
and telegrams to his office totaled 119
against Reagan's plan and 38 in favor
of it.
O'Neill last week projected a 10-to-
15 vote victory for opponents of the
aid package but refused Monday to
provide a new vote count. However,
Rep. Thomas Foley, D-Wash., the
majority whip, said, "we're ahead arid
there is no perceptible erosion." '
In the Senate, where Republicans
hold a 53-47 edge, Dole said, "I think
there are enough votes (to win). It's
close."
The wave of predictions came as
Reagan met at the White House with
Habib, who had just returned from a
three-day visit to the region. Habib's
visit did not, however, include a stop
in Nicaragua.
