Rukeyser kicked off a three-day "Management in Transition" confer ence sponsored by students in UNC's Graduate School of Business Administration. No one really can be sure when the stock market will be back, Rukeyser said. But he did say that long-term investments in such indus tries as health, energy and technology should prove profitable. Before making any decisions, investors should make a list of five to 10 companies that will potentially be "attuned to the future," he said, then invest regularly in those chosen companies, disregarding daily fluctuations. "Most people give their advice through a rear-view mirror," he said. "They tell you what you shouldVe done. Anyone can do that. I prefer to look through the front windshield it's a little cloudy, but that's where the money is." Rukeyser assessed economic and political issues that plague the United See SPEAKER page 4 Only dull people are brilliant DTHTony Deifell Hathaway asked that the bill be brought back before the congress and proposed that the subsidies should not take effect until the 1989 elections if the bill is passed. The bill was postponed so it could be improved, Hathaway said. "There were many (congress members) who voted against the bill who did it because of technicalities and minor flaws they perceived in it," he said. "It's an idea whose time has come and whose exact wording needs to be refined." Tar Heel takes command By CORIN ORTLAM Staff Writer Amidst the phasing out of UNC Air Force ROTC, the Army ROTC pro gram is still going strong at Duke University, and the strength and leadership of this program lies in a UNC senior, Ralph Krulder. Krulder, a geography major from Lincoln Park, N.J., has been appointed first-in-command of the Duke Army ROTC pro gram this semester. Krulder is the first UNC stu dent to be appointed to the pres tigious position of battalion com mander since the program was started on the Duke campus in 1983. As battalion commander, Krulder will be in charge of nearly 170 cadets from Duke, UNC and N.C. Central University. "Ralph is everything a cadet should be," says Capt. Armando Costales of the Duke Army ROTC progam. "He has just been outstanding since he first joined us as a sophomore." Krulder was originally turned down from the UNC Navy ti nIlr all" cmmge mmcmh say By HELEN JONES Staff Writer Ticketron said it does not plan to change the reasonable search disclaimer on the backs of the tickets it issues to the Smith Center, despite its assurances in January that it would, Ticketron lawyer Ron Tho mas said Tuesday. Ticketron will not be changing the disclaimer because none of its other customers has questioned the search clause, Thomas said. In late January, Ticketron officials told Steve Camp, Smith Center director, that the company would change the disclaimer, which says that patrons must submit to "a reasonable search for drugs, alcohol or weapons" when attending an event. Camp had asked Ticketron offi cials to insert the word "legal," so that the disclaimer would read "a reason able, legal search." University audit recommends By LYDIAN BERNHARDT Staff Writer UNC must secure additional fund ing if it is to keep its status as one of the nation's top public research universities, according to a recent management audit of the University. The report suggests that University officials implement a substantial tuition increase, request more money from the N.C. General Assembly, and organize a major fund-raising cam paign targeted at alumni to increase revenue. "Adequate funding is critical to a distinguished university and addi tional funding at Chapel Hill is essential," the report said. The report suggests a significant tuition increase for both in- and out-of-state students to raise funds. UNC students get a tremendous bargain decision But Brock Dickinson (Dist. 13) said he thinks students do not want their activities fees used to support candidates whose views they do not share. Instead, candidates should rely on contributions from their supporters, he said. "I would have serious qualms with anyone (any candidate) who could not raise enough money to run a campaign," he said. Several congress members said they agreed with the bill's intent, but UNC senior Ralph Krulder has ROTC program because he was too old. "I talked to some people in the Army program and was at breakfast. TnnH"nTi7 Ticketron officials did not inform him that they did not plan to change the disclaimer, Camp said Wednes day night. "I find that a complete change in direction," he said. Camp said he plans to call Tick etron officials Thursday morning to discuss the matter. Constitutional rights are protected on the street, not in a concert arena, Thomas said. "If someone doesn't want to be searched, they shouldn't buy a ticket," he said. Attending a concert is a commod ity that has nothing to do with privileges or rights, Thomas said. "You have to look at it from a public welfare point of view," he said. Questions arose last December about whether the disclaimer violates an individual's right to freedom from illegal search and seizure by a Evaluating UNC compared to other universities in its class, and tuition should be raised immediately, according to the report. Despite the report's emphasis on a tuition increase, it is unlikely that tuition will be raised, said Felix Joyner, UNC-system vice president of finance. "Tuition increases are a routine part of budget requests, but President Spangler's position is very clear," Joyner said. "He's not for tuition increases. He won't recommend it." Tuition costs are set by the state legislature on the request of the general administration of the univer sity system, Sen.

Brien Lewis (Dist. 16) and David Maynard (Dist. 10), both candidates for student body presi dent, abstained. In other business, the congress passed a bill which expresses objec tion to a proposed parking fee increase and elimination of student parking at Cobb Residence Hall, which will be voted on Thursday by been appointed first-in-command given a waiver," Krulder says.

Some legal experts said the disclaimer misleads people into thinking that they must submit to any police search, when they may in fact refuse if the police do not have probable cause. Daniel Pollitt, a UNC Kenan professor of law, said the entire clause should be removed because it is not fair to force people to waive their rights as a term of sale for a concert ticket. People already know they have to submit to a probable cause search, so inserting the word "legal" is. unnecessary, he said. People can no more be forced to submit to a search when attending a concert than they can be forbidden to attend church, Pollitt said.

Officials should also implement a more aggressive plan to increase "funding support from-the N.C. General Assembly, the report said. The Board of Governors would have to request more money from the state legislature to receive additional funding, Ward said. The legislature can only grant an increase to all institutions in the UNC system, not just to the campus at Chapel Hill exclusively, he said. A major fund-raising campaign targeted at alumni and friends of the University would also help to increase funding, the report said.

The student parking lot at Cobb Resi dence Hall would be used for faculty parking. The bill called the elimination of the Cobb spaces unacceptable and the parking fee increase inappropriate without exploring other avenues of funding for the parking deck. at Duke DTH Janet Jarman of the Duke Army ROTC program See CADET page 5
