Mahmoud Rashied gives Carrboro Mayor Eleanor Kinnaird gifts from Elmenshia, Egypt, Carrboro's sister-city
Aldermen continue ties with 'sister city'

The Carrboro Board of Aldermen
received a visitor bearing gifts from
Carrboro's sister city in Egypt Tues
day night.
Mahmoud Rashied, a representa
tive of Elmenshia, Egypt, presented
the aldermen with handmade cloth
ing, a silver tray and a scrapbook of
pictures from his city.
In return, Carrboro Mayor Elea
nor Kinnaird gave Rashied town pins
and mugs to take back to members
of his Egyptian community.

taxes and the presidential election of
1988.
"I don't think the problem is that
taxes are too low," he said. "Federal
spending is too high."
If America really wants to tackle
the problem, the political leadership
must take on 100 percent of the
federal budget, including defense,
entitlements and Social Security,
Rashied said he has plans to write
about the Carrboro's community
development. "I would like to learn
what role religious organizations play
in community development in Carr
boro and Chapel Hill," he said.
Rashied said he had made previous
trips to the United States, but he was
able to meet more of the general
public during his first Carrboro visit.
On other trips to cities such as
Chicago, he said he always had an
agenda of people to meet.
"Here I got the chance to meet
other people without titles," Rashied

arena is unconstitutional.
North Carolina Civil Liberties
Union Attorney William Simpson
wrote a letter Dec. 17 to Susan
Ehringhaus, assistant to the chancel-
Rukeyser said.
"The arithmetic of Social Security
is constantly changing," he said, "and
it's going to run us down."
Rukeyser predicted that in the
future, there will be too many people
in retirement and too few people
working.
A plan where people could opt out
for receiving future benefits may be
said.
Rashied said the Egyptian city was
very pleased to be associated with
Carrboro.
Carrboro unofficially adopted
Elmenshia as a sister city last June
after planning board member Andy
Dobelstein visited the city and sug
gested the idea, said Carrboro Town
Clerk Sara Williamson.
Dobelstein is a UNC professor of
social work, who has strong connec
tions with faculty and students at
Minia University in Minia, Egypt.
"He (Dobelstein) suggested we set

"It is quite clear that searches not
based on individualized suspicion are
inherently unreasonable," Simpson

are similar in size and are both
adjacent to a large university,"
Williamson said.
"I think it's great, and the more
cooperation we have on a global level,
the more we will understand about
our local community and ourselves,"
said Carrboro senior planner Ann
Weeks. "It sounds like it would be
fun to go to Egypt as a statesperson
for the alderman trip," she said.
Rashied said he has spent a little

Constitutions."
Ticketron lawyer Thomas also
compared the Ticketron search policy
to airport security searches.
Pollitt said he strongly disagreed.
A federal law was enacted to allow
for airport searches because Congress
felt the danger of hijacking was very
real, he said. Such dangers do not
apply to concert arenas, he said.
In a letter about Dorton Arena to
the state fair manager, dated May 8,

Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
and Article I, Section 20 of the N.C.

Karen Childress, a junior psy
chology major from Ronda, has
announced her candidacy for
senior class secretary.
Childress said she wants to
focus on improving communica
tion and unity among members of
the senior class.
"One of my main goals is to
make sure we keep in contact with
all seniors on campus as well as
off," Childress said. "So many
seniors live off campus, it is hard
for them to get involved in on
campus activities."
Childress said she wants to
improve communication by
expanding the senior newsletter
and working with the publicity
committee.
She said she wants to make sure
those seniors who leave school for
a semester on rotations or aca
demic internships receive the
newsletter promptly.
"I plan to stress contact with
those seniors on rotations," Chil
dress said. "I want to make sure
they get the newsletter on time. By
the time many seniors on rotation
this year received their newsletter,
the activity was over."
Childress said she wants to work

Two men trying to leave a Chapel
Hill convenience store with the cash
register Tuesday night didn't get very
far before police caught up with them.
Charged with common law
robbery, simple assault and assault
with a deadly weapon were Kenneth
Darryl Watson, 24, of Route 4, Box
480, Pittsboro and Rodney Scott
Merritt, 24, of 500 Sykes St., Chapel
Hill.
Only a few minutes after taking the
register from The Beverage Outlet,
located at 309 W. Rosemary St.,
Watson and Merritt were appre
hended on nearby Sykes Street by
police searching the area, said Chapel
Hill Police Capt. Ralph Pendergraph.
Information from the store clerk
and citizens in the neighborhood

mittees, especially the publicity
committee, she said.
"I want to make sure the pub
licity is all over campus and I want
to have more of it than in the past,"
she said.
The senior class can be united
with more activities, Childress
said.
"I want to work to have more
class activities to bring those
seniors on and those seniors off
campus together more," she said.
Childress said senior blocks,
senior nights out and band parties
as activities would unite members
of the senior class more.
Childress said she will help
other officers plan activities for the
class, as well as fulfilling her duties
as secretary.
"I want to have more of an
active planning role rather than
just taking notes," she said.
Childress is president of Parker
Residence Hall. She has pre
viously served as a floor senator
and social chairman at Parker.
She has been a member of the
Campus Y Umstead Hospital
Volunteer Program and an orien
tation counselor.
