ina, shaking oil doubters and Mich
igan defenders with equal ease,
advanced to the round of 16 in the
NCAA tournament Saturday after
noon with a 109-97 victory over the
Wolverines.
The win was accomplished in
atspical UNC fashion. For the first
time since before the ACC tourna
ment, the Tar Heels opened strongly,
bliting Michigan with 12 straight
points in the first three minutes, and
then played the rest of the game to
a run-and-gun, 97-97 tie.

North Carolina will head next to
the Mcadowlands in East Ruther
ford. N.J.. for a rematch with Notre
Dame Thursday night. The Fighting
Irish defeated UNC 60-58 earlier this
season, and got into the round of
1 6 by edging 1 CU, 58-57, in a thriller
that preceded the UNC-Michigan
tussle before a sellout crowd of

seventh straight trip to the Final 16.
canned 20 of their first 26 shots
against Michigan. The barrage came
despite Coach Dean Smith's limited
use of forward Joe Wolf, who
sprained an ankle badly in practice
Friday and was diagnosed as "very
doubtful" before the game.
W'nlr Bnly shot five times in his
20 minutes of playing time and
scored nine points, but the rest of
the UNC squad more than made up
the slack, with five players scoring
in double figures. J.R. Reid had 27
points and 10 rebounds. Kenny
Smith scored 22, Jeff Lebo had 16,
Scott Williams 1 1 and Steve Buck
nall 10 as UNC never trailed against
the Wolverines, who finished the
season at 20-1 1.
"We played maybe our best game
of the year," said UNC coach Smith,
whose team improved to 31-3. the
third-most wins in the history of the
program. The 1957 and 1982 cham
pionship teams had 32 wins, a mark
the 1987 squad can eclipse with a
trip to the Final Four. "We wanted
this one very much, and we knew
it would be difficult without Joe
going full steam."

UNC students arrested in campus
demonstrations might not escape
prosecution as easily as they have
in the past if Orange-Chatham
District Attorney Carl Fox succeeds
in amending a state trespassing law.
Fox is working to change a current
law that requires UNC-system chan
cellors to be present for court cases
involving student protesters arrested
for disobeying orders to leave school
property.
lie said he wants more people to
have the authority to verify in court
that the chancellor ordered students
to leave school property, so the trial
outcome would not depend on the
presence or absence of the
chancellor.
"I want to make it so that the law
is usable," Fox said. "Right now it's
almost impossible to work with."
Rep. Joe Hackney, who represents
Orange and Chatham counties in the
General Assembly, would be respon
sible for proposing the amendment
to the General Assembly. But Hack
ney said last week he had not seen
Fox's amendment.
Hackney said he had read about
the proposal in newspapers, and he
agreed that trespass laws of this
district are outmoded.
"The law ought not to require the

J.R. Reid, who had 27 points Saturday, looks for the open man in UNC's 109-97 victory over Michigan
chancellor's presence in court to
verify that some official did give a
directive for demonstrators to leave,"
said Hackney. ,
Fox said he hoped that in the
future other people could appear in
court, including the police chief, vice
chancellor and the dean of students.
Dale McKinley, a member of
Action Against Apartheid, said,
"The reason Carl Fox wants to
change the law is because the last
two trials regarding demonstrations
made him look bad because they
were not successful in prosecuting
us."
Fox pressed charges in the Chapel
Hill District Court last January
against 13 UNC students of the Anti
Apartheid Support Group for refus
ing to leave the South Building
during a protest. The case was
dropped when Chancellor Chris
topher Fordham did not make the
court appearance required by cur
rent law.
Fordham said he had forgotten
the court date and was out of town
on a business trip.
"The only time there has been any
problem with demonstrators was
when their demonstration was block

.said.'; '' '

amendment is approved and prose

more probable. He said he hoped he
would not have to call police to arrest
students again. v
"I generally like to meet with
students and come to "some kind of
understanding. I see myself as
someone with considerable sym
pathy . for student concerns," said
Fordham.
McKinley said he does not think
the ammendment would hinder
activities of the anti-apartheid
organizations.
"It doesn't make that much dif
ference to us whether the law is more
strict in prosecuting those who
demonstrate," he said.

Cable in dorms may become reality

The possibility of installing cable
in campus residence halls is being
discussed by University Housing and
Physical Plant officials, according to
University officials.
"We should have cable access
within the next two to three years,"
Housing Director Wayne Kuncl
said. "Cable's on the way."

cable wire is already running through
campus. However, not enough con

University-employed architects
are now studying . a proposal to

Residence Halls so they can be used
as living areas for outstanding

The Chapel Hill Town Council
denied Pi Kappa Phi's request for
a special noise permit for the Nth
annual Burnout last Monday night
in a 5-3 vote.
The noise permit would have
allowed the fraternity to have ampli
fied live music outdoors before 5
p.m.
Town Council members said they
were concerned about the location
of the event. Last year the Burnout
drew about 2,000 people to the
fraternity house on Finley road near
the Oaks residential area.
During the council meeting, inte
rim Police Chief Arnold Gold said
residents of the Oaks neighborhood
complained of littering, indecent
exposure and vandalism occurring
during the party.
Gold cited other problems, includ
ing sanitation, traffic congestion and
limited emergency vehicle access. He
recommended that the council deny
the noise permit.
N.C. Burn Center director Dr.
H.D. Peterson said after the deci
sion, "I live in the Oaks, and 1 never
heard any complaints. The noise
wasn't a problem. There wasn't any
significant vandalism. 1 would know
about it." : 4 , - ,
The fraternity contributes the
funds raised by the Burnout to the
Burn Center.
Last Thursday, Gold said the
police department had received an
unknown number of complaints last
year by telephone and had not
recorded them.
He said residents complained that
some party-goers pushed over mail
boxes and urinated in public.
The fraternity's proposal, submit
ted to the Town Council Feb. 25,
addressed some of the police depart
ment's concerns. For example, this
year the fraternity would not distri
bute beer, but would provide Coke
and Pepsi.
The fraternity also proposed to
increase the number of parking
monitors and provide more shuttle
buses for party-goers, with several
stops on campus and at parking lots.
Cam Huffman, Pi Kappa Phi
house father, said the fraternity
to residence halls immediately, he
said.
"There's a study being done by an
outside organization to explore the
cost and feasibility of cable instal
lation, and the study should be
complete by June," Peake said.
Scott Gesl. executive consultant
for Student Television, said cable
could be brought to campus in
several ways.
"It could be brought in through
the town's cable company, Carolina
Cable," Gest said, "or a dish could
be installed on Bennet Building, or
Bennet Building could simply gener

"I feel like this arrangement will
help break down the size of the
University," she said. "It will allow
for more and different types of
interactions between faculty and
students, and will offer a greater
sense of community on-campus."
Cell, who originated the proposal,
said it will be discussed "more after
architects report on the cost and
feasibility of the project. The chan
cellor's administrative council and
the Arts and Sciences faculty have
discussed the proposal thoroughly,
she said..
would work to meet the council's
demands.
"Last year we used Port-a-Johns
maybe seven or eight but we
can always get more," he said. "We
did have nurses on duty at first-aid
stations. We have pledges who are
willing to clean up."
Council member John Howes
said, "This event has become increas
ingly abrasive, in spite of the fact
that you have met our demands. We
are expressing concerns that have
been voiced to us. And we want to
move such events to the center of
the campus."
Before submitting their proposal
to the Town Council, Burnout
chairmen John Biggers and Scott
Gerlach worked with Chief Gold to
iron out the difficulties.
Biggers said Gold did not recom
mend changing the location to
Ehringhaus Field until almost three
weeks ago. By that time, Ehringhaus
Field was booked for April 10, he
said.
Biggers said Gold wanted the
Burnout moved onto campus to
lessen the work load for the Chapel
Hill Police Department, because
UNC police would have to deal with
the event.
Council members Howes, Bill
Thcwpe-andNancy Preston Said they
would approve the noise permit, but
only on the condition that it would ,
be the last time the fraternity used
that location.
But the majority of the council
said the fraternity should have
moved the location this year.
Peterson said the council did not
make it clear last year that they
wanted the location changed for this
year.
"Last year the mayor was willing
to help the fraternity," Peterson said.
"Now we have a new mayor and a
new Town Council."
Peterson said, "I think it is
shortsighted on the part of the Town
Council to penalize the citizens of
North Carolina, and they will be
penalized because we won't get
$6,000 for research, patient care and"
burn prevention for no good
reason."

ate its own signal.
"Right now there are three differ
ent tracts of cable on campus, each
with a different purpose," he said.
"One is for hooking up the computer
systems in the dorms with the major
one in the Undergraduate Library,
the second one is for cable television
hook-up and the last one is a
backup."
How to use the cable once it is
installed is another problem. The
University has the option of putting
cable into one lounge per residence

scrutiny
"I'd like the dorms to house
seniors who have shown academic
achievement or outstanding service
to the community," Cell said. "1 want
this proposal to send a very strong
signal to students.
"UNC places value on achieve
ment and we want to reward this,"
she said. "The people who are
outstanding at this University are not
recognized enough for their achieve
ments. Never once have I seen
coverage of the Phi Beta Kappa
