Ticket change may mot toe
By BARBARA LINN
Staff Writer
The proposed change in the word
ing on the back of Ticketron tickets
will not affect the constitutionality of
searches at Smith Center events, legal
experts said Thursday.
However, legal opinions about
whether the change should be made
were mixed.
The change was suggested by Steve
Camp, director of the Smith Center,
in response to concern about the
constitutionality of a disclaimer on
the back of the tickets.
The disclaimer states that ticket
holders are admitted on the condition
that they consent to a "reasonable
search for alchohol, drugs or wea
pons." The proposal would change
that phrase to "a reasonable, legal
Tar Heels
outlast
Hatters
By LANGSTON WERTZ
Staff Writer
For 30 minutes Thursday night, the
North Carolina basketball machine
was rolling, and all the Stetson
Hatters could do was watch it run.
But for the final 10 minutes, the
No. 1 -ranked Tar Heels blew a tire
as Stetson made an 18-1 run to cut
a 29-point UNC lead to 12. In the
end, though, Tar Heel talent over
came Hatter hustle and North Caro
lina prevailed 86-74, before 18,732 at
the Smith Center.
Coach Dean Smith, though happy
with the win over what he called "a
capable Stetson team," said the Tar
Heels are overrated and have a long
way to go.
"I think this game is indicative of
the way we're playing," Smith said.
"We built the lead to 29 . . . and we
should be able to do- better (at
protecting the lead)."
One big reason the Tar Heels had
a routine blowout turned into a
learning experience was Stetson's
Terry Johnson, who paced the Hat
ters' second-half bravado with four
treys and 12 of his 14 points. Three
of Johnson's bombs came in the
three-minute Stetson rally which cut
an 80-51 UNC lead to 81-69 with 3:02
to play.
Aiding Johnson was star forward
Randy Anderson, who contributed
15 points to the Hatter cause.
But as well as Johnson and And
erson played, the game belonged to
North Carolina's Scott Williams.
Williams scored 16 points, wiped the
boards clean seven times and blocked
four shots. The most amazing of the
6-foot-10 center's blocks came at the
end of a one-on-three situation in the
first half. Williams rebounded, lost
the ball, then blocked the ensuing
Stetson shot and retrieved the loose
ball.
After the game, Williams said that
he was mentally into the game and
felt good.
"I felt my shot was really on
tonight," the sophomore Williams
said. "I felt I was really hot out there.
1 felt 1 couldn't miss." Actually, he
missed four times Thursday, but
made his other eight attempts.
But while Williams shined, UNC's
slumbering giant continued to strug
gle. J.R. Reid had another tough
game, going only three-for-seven
from the field and scoring 12 points.
"I was trying to do too much too
early in the season," Reid said,
searching for an explanation for his
uncharacteristic play. "I just need to
keep taking the shots that I usually
take. The more games we play, the
better 1 will play and the team will

Students who live on campus
should take all valuable items home
with them during Christmas break,
University police advised Thursday.
Maj. Robert Porreca said that
although there has been no estab
lished crime pattern during past
Christmas holidays, the potential for
crime always exists.
"We have had problems in the
search."
Camp said he wanted to change
the wording on the back of the tickets
to satisfy concerns that have been
raised about the legality of the
disclaimer.
"First of all, I am not sure if what
is there is wrong," Camp said. "But
going on from there, we have con
tracted Ticketron to look at a way
to make people comfortable with the
wording, whatever that may be.
"We want to find a reasonable,
logical way to clarify the statement.
If there is concern, let's clarify that
concern," he said.
William Simpson, North Carolina
Civil Liberties Union staff attorney,
said the wording of the disclaimer will
not affect the legality of a search.
"Whatever is on the back of the

Smith, who again preached his
yearly gospel that UNC is overrated,
said Reid was simply trying too hard.
"It wasn't as bad tonight," Smith
said of Reid's problems. "He missed
lay-ups earlier."
Smith blamed Reid's struggles on
pressure caused by too much presea
past," he said. "As long as we have
dorm rooms with something attrac
tive in them, there's always a chance."
Department statistics from 1985,
the latest year for which figures are
available, show December is a high
month for minor larcenies, Porreca
said. The number of breaking and
entering reports was relatively stable.
Porreca said anything can look

ticket won't change the constitution
ality of a search," Simpson said.
"What is on the back of the ticket
is immaterial.
"I don't think the change makes
a difference," he said. "An unreason
able search is illegal. A reasonable
search is probably constitutional.
There is dispute about the meaning
of 'reasonable.' "
Maj. Robert Porreca of University
police agreed.
"They can put anything they want
on the back of the ticket and it has
nothing to do with the way law
enforcement people operate," he said.
"We conduct our operation under
accordance of the law. Period."
Porreca said that if a case concern
ing an unconstitutional search were
brought to court, he would not use
Stetson's Torbjorn Gehrke (30) for
son hype and compared Reid's hype
induced struggles to the same prob
lems faced by Michael Jordan in his
junior season.
Smith also said that Reid and the
rest of the Tar Heels were in trouble
against the Hatters at the half, when
UNC led 44-33. Undoubtedly, he
must have been pleased with the
recommended that students move
every possible valuable item from
their rooms before break begins.
"It may be a lot of extra work,"
Porreca said, "but it's better to know
you're going to have that property
than have to replace it."
Students who own bicycles should
not keep them outside over the break,
Porreca said.
"It's best to take them with you,"
he said, though "they'd be better off

"I wouldn't use what's on the back
of the ticket," he said. "It's just that:
a ticket. It is put out by private
industry. It is not mandated by
legislation and not ruled by the
court."
But Arnold Loewy, UNC law
school professor, said he thought it
was a good idea to put the word
"legal" on the back of the ticket, even
though it would have no effect on
the legality of a search or the meaning
of the disclaimer.
"It never hurts to clarify things,"
he said.

citizens against "unreasonable"

University police will be on the

Porreca said.

more closely than when occupied."
However, he added, "There are no

said.
Stephanie Ahlschwede (Dist. 14),
student affairs committee chairwo
man, met with Camp on Thursday
to discuss ways of changing the
disclaimer.
"I was concerned that it (the
disclaimer) was almost a double

UNC-CH students caught possess
ing or selling drugs could be subject
to stricter punishment if the final draft
of a UNC system-wide drug policy
is approved by the Board of
Governors.
A BOG committee approved the
final draft of the drug policy Thurs
day. The draft will be submitted for
approval at the Jan. 8 Board of
Governors meeting.
The draft would also expand the
University system's drug policy to
include faculty and staff.
At this time, UNC-CH does not
have a specific drug policy. Two
paragraphs in the Instrument for
Student Judicial Governance under
the Code of Student Conduct cover
the subject of drug abuse.
Member institutions would be
required to write their own drug
policy, using the system-wide policy

A piece of paper has been taped
to the door of two black students who
live in Joyner Residence Hall. The
paper covers the 4-inch high "KKK"
that was carved above the keyhole
of their door sometime Wednesday
night or Thursday morning.
One of the students, a senior who
has lived in Joyner since she was a
freshman, said she noticed the letters
at about 10:45 a.m. Thursday
morning.
"I was coming back from my 9:30
class," the senior, who asked not to
be identified, said Thursday evening.
"I turned the key and then I saw it."
She said she thought the incident
had resulted from conflict with
hallmates about making noise, rather
than from a specific racial problem.

Ahlschwede said a few options are
available for changing the tickets.
"The backs could be changed on
a national level," she said. "It is not
reasonable to expect Ticketron to
print a different back for every
coliseum in the nation.
"We can put whatever we want on
the back of Smith Center tickets,"
Ahlschwede said. "But our tickets go
on sale all over the place." .
Albert Zalewski, Ticketron area
manager for North Carolina and
Virginia, said the company was
reviewing the proposal and checking
with attorneys.
"If there is not opposition from
other clients, the next time we print
up tickets, well put that word (legal)
in," he said.
as a guideline.
Under the proposed policy, the
severity of the punishment would
depend on the type of drug being
abused. Under the North Carolina
Controlled Substances Act, drugs are
classified in schedules according to
their potential danger of abuse.
Possession of a Schedule I or II
drug such as heroin or cocaine would
result in suspension from enrollment
or employment for at least one
semester. A student or faculty
member caught selling these types of
drugs would be expelled or
discharged.
Possession of a Schedule III

or codeine, would result in probation.
The offender would have to partic

"This hall is not divided between
whites and blacks," she said. But on
several occasions she said she has
asked some of her hallmates who
happened to be white to make less
noise. The students said that after the
conflict worsened, several minor
incidents occurred, such as the
smashing of their memo board pen.
"It's been a problem all semester,"
she said. "We had a hall meeting
about it and we set up written rules,
but it hasn't really helped. My
roommate and I study in our rooms,
and when I go into my room I think
I have the right to study in peace and
