By PHYLLIS A. FAIR
Staff Writer
: Promoting school spirit and
hanging basketball ticket distribu
tion are two goals that Carol Geer,
new president of the Carolina
(thletic Association, has set for her
year in office.
Geer. a sophomore history and
political science major from New
york, said in an interview Friday
that she's looking forward to her year
as CAA president.
; One of Geer's ideas to get students
more involved in football games is
moving the pep band from the end
one into the stands, where the rest
of the students sit.
"Right now we have three shows
going on." she said. We have the
band, the cheerleaders and the
mikeman."
; If the mikeman's platform is
extended, the cheerleaders can stand
on it with him, Geer said.
Gecr also proposes forming a
"fever committee' to help the crowd

"All they basically will be doing
is trying to get people to yell," Geer
said. "We're also trying to get a block
for the fever committee."
Anybody will be able to join the
fever committee, Geer said, and the
only qualification needed is a wil
lingness to promote school spirit.
UNC Athletic Director John
Swofford also wants to promote
school spirit among all people who
attend games, not only students,
Geer said.
"We're basically concentrating on
getting the students going," she said.
"Once we get them going we will
work with getting the alumni going.
That's a task in itself."
Swofford is presently working
with the CAA to try to get pompons
to put in all of the stadium seats so
that even the spectators who don't
want to cheer can wave their pom
pons, she said.
Gecr said she would also like to

get freshmen more involved in sports
events.
"Wc (the CAA) arc trying to get
a sports perspective booklet to
inform freshmen about the different
revenue, non-revenue and club
sports on campus," she said.
The booklet would list times,
places and descriptions of sports
activities, she said.
Geer said she heard complaints
about the CAA switching basketball
ticket distribution to weekends.
Many students complained about
having to get up early on Monday
mornings to stand in line for tickets
even students who live in Hinton
James, the residence hall closest to
the Smith Center, she said.
"I'm going to talk to Kenny
Brown, who's in charge of ticket
distribution, about it, and the CAA
is going to do a personal survey to
find out how students feel about it,"
Geer said.
One possibility is moving ticket
distribution for games against Duke
serious problem, Friday said.
"There are 900,000 people in the
state who really cannot communi
cate in the sense of knowing how
to get along in the world," he said.
Friday said the first task of the
council would be bringing together
all agencies involved with illiteracy
to "give the whole effort a sense of
direction."
Friday said lowering the high
school dropout rate would be one
way to combat illiteracy.
"This problem (illiteracy) can be
corrected, and that's the important
thing to remember," he said.
Until now, the state did not have
a coordinated effort to fight illiter
acy, said N.C. Senate minority leader
Larry Cobb, R-Mecklenburg. He
said he was pleased that the governor
chose Friday to head the council.
"You couldn't have found a better
person to chair it," he said.
The cost of the council will be
fairly low, consisting mainly of trav el
and per diem expenses for the
members, Pittman said.
"The group will be largely volun
teer." he said.
Although the structure of the
council is not yet complete, Friday
said the council would probably

to weekends, because those games
will definitely sell out, Geer said.
Continuing the work that former
CAA president Mark Pavao started
is another of Geer's goals, she said.
When Pavao took office two years
ago, he said his first concern was
restructuring the CAA.
"It wasn't set up such a way that
it could do anything or do much,"
he said. "It did tickets and it tried
to do homecoming. There hadn't
been any interaction with the admin
istration and no attempts at fund
raisers.
"It was sort of static, and it just
continued year to year doing the bare
minimums. There wasn't any con
cern within the CAA to conduct
activities, to organize events or
improve school spirit," Pavao said.
Pavao said he was satisfied with
his reorganization of the CAA, and
he was pleased with the accomplish
ments of his two terms as CAA
president.

Pittman said Friday is the only
person the governor has named to
the council so far. but Martin will
make the other appointments soon.
Possible candidates for the positions
include Bob Scott, president of the
N.C. community college system, and
Craig Phillips, superintendent of
public instruction, Pittman said.
Representatives from the governor's
office, UNC system, cabinet, and
business and industry will probably
also be included, he said.

The purpose of this exchange is
"to challenge the rigid 4enemy

O'Malley said.
She said the center plans to
sponsor a film and discussion series,
"Ecocide: A Strategy of War," from
Feb. 26 to April 16. The series will
focus on military operations in
Southeast Asia and Central
America.
Various speakers will be featured
during the film discussions, with the
exception of those discussions shown
during UNC's Spring Break.
The center, which has about 475
members, was incorporated in 1984
in North Carolina. Since that time,
it has hosted peace workshops
throughout the east, O'Malley said.
The center has about 35 volunteer
workers who help keep it running,
she said.
The organization is also non
partisan, and claims no religious ties
