Slim down with Carolina Fitness
Changing lifestyles and eating
habits are the keys to maintaining
weight loss and lowering choles
terol levels, according to represen
tatives of UNC's Carolina Fitness, a
medically supervised weight con
trol and fitness program.
Overweight people are more
likely to develop high cholesterol,
high blood pressure and diabetes
all major risks in developing heart
disease, said William Heizer, direc
tor of Carolina Fitness and professor
of medicine at UNC.
Exercise is also important, Hiezer
Said. Rapid walking or slow jogging
are effective ways to get the neces
sary exercise, he said.
Participants entering the program
receive a physical examination,
which includes a blood pressure
check, height and weight measure
ments and cholesterol testing.
; Participants are encouraged to
exercise at their target heart rate for
20 to 30 minutes three or four times
a week. The target heart rate range is
found by subtracting a person's age
from 220 and multiplying the result
by 60 percent, Heizer said.

Speeches by the grandson of Mo
handas Gandhi and the man who was
the subject of "The Killing Fields" will
highlight the Campus Y-sponsored
seventh annual Human Rights Week,
which begins Sunday.
Activities will be held throughout
the week and are open to students and
the community. Debates, lectures, films
and presentations will examine various
human rights issues on three levels:
international, national and local, said
Teresa Frazier, co-chairwoman of
Human Rights Week.
Tony Deifell, co-president of the
Campus Y, said education and action
were the two main purposes of the
week of events.
"People have to be informed about
issues before they can act on them. As
students we live in a sheltered environ
ment from the human rights violations
around the world."
Events begin when buses leave
Sunday to go to a pro-choice march in
Washington. The annual Footfalls Race,
"Run for Humanity," is Sunday at 2
p.m.

Activist to plead guilty
in tower-climbing trial
By SARAH CAGLE
Assistant University Editor
UNC senior Jerry Jones said Thurs
day that he would plead guilty to charges
of property damage, trespassing and
resisting arrest in Chapel Hill District
Court Nov. 1 6.
Chapel Hill Police arrested Jones, a
member of the CIA Action Committee
(CI A AC), when he climbed the radio
tower at WCHL Oct. 30 in protest of
CIA recruiting at UNC and refused to
come down. Jones spent more than six
hours on the tower and hung a banner
reading "CIA Off Campus."
This was the first protest by the
CIAAC in response to CIA recruitment
on campus Nov. 6. The CIAAC also
staged a mock funeral on Nov. 6 behind
South Building.
Jones said he would not have legal
counsel but would represent himself in
court. After pleading guilty, he said he
would explain to the court why he chose
to climb the tower.
"I didn't do it on a whim. I did what
I thought I had to do. I was called to do
something dramatic to counter the
horrors of the CIA."
Negative vote meets resolution
By AMY WAJDA
Assistant University Editor
A proposed resolution against anti
CIA protests on campus was sent unfa
vorably to Student Congress by the
Student Affairs Committee Wednes
day. The resolution, introduced by Rep.
Jeffrey Beall (Dist. 7), supports the
CIA's constitutional right to free speech
and calls for the congress to oppose "all
attempts to unlawfully restrict or limit
the right of the CIA to conduct inter
views on the UNC campus."
Committee chairman Matthew Heyd
said that before Wednesday night the
committee had only once unfavorably
referred a piece of legislation to the
congress this academic year. "That's
unusual that we would do that."
Rep. Dave Davidson (Dist. 13), said
he voted against the resolution because
he disagreed with it and felt it was
irrelevant. "I don't think it matters if his
resolution goes through or not because
the CIA can't lawfully be kept off
campus anyway."
Rep. Mindy Friedman (Dist. 12),
who abstained from voting on the reso
lution, said the title, "A Resolution to
Promote Freedom of Speech," was
nesses would be chosen until January,
and the decision will depend on certain
conditions. The deadline for bids is
Dec. 1.
"It will be solely determined by the
quality of proposals we receive. The
bid is open to anyone interested and
nothing is set as to how many we will
take," said Derby.
Daniel Shefte, president of the Shefte
Corporation, which owns Triangle area
Domino's franchises, said that they
would be bidding again this year. Be
cause it has 28 area stores and 800
employees, Domino's is the best suited
pizza company for the Marriott meal
The committee will meet Nov. 14 to
discuss its proposals, said member
Hannelore Jarausch, a lecturer in the
Department of Romance Languages.
When the proposal is completed, it
will be presented to the Administrative
Boards of the College of Arts and Sci
ences and the General College. The
Faculty Council will make the final
speakers

and the United States.
Brendan Matthews, programming
chairman of Human Rights Week, said
Gandhi's opinions on race relations in
this country were often controversial.
"He (Gandhi) feels that racism here is
as bad or worse as in Third World
countries."
The other keynote speaker, Dith Pran,
First-degree trespassing carries a
maximum prison sentence of one year,
and the maximum penalty for resisting
arrest is six months in prison, said Bill
Massengale, assistant Chapel Hill dis
trict attorney. Damage to property is a
misdemeanor, and the penalty depends
on the amount of damage done.
"I'm facing more time with this
demonstration than I've ever faced
before," Jones said. "But I don't have
any regrets. I'm prepared to take the
consequences."
Jones said he did not expect to be
treated differently because he was an
activist. "My actions aren't any differ
ent from any other lawbreaker."
Because of FCC regulations, police
said Oct. 30 that Jones could face fed
eral charges. Jones said that had not
been pursued.
Bill Whisnant, general manager of
WCHL, said charges were filed against
Jones to prevent future incidents at the
station. "Our feeling is first of all, that
it is very dangerous on the tower. Had
we not pressed charges it would have
sent a message to every Tom, Dick and
Harry that they could climb the tower."
misleading.
"If you were to vote for it you would
vote for freedom of speech for the CIA
but not for the protesters."
Beall, the only committee member
to defend the resolution, could not be
reached for comment Thursday.
Heyd, who as chairman abstains from
all votes, said Beall thought he was
simply supporting free speech. "He felt
that to encroach on people's rights to
interview on campus was a form of
censorship."
Also Wednesday, the committee
favorably referred a resolution, intro
duced by Davidson, that called for the
UNC administration to include students
in campus land-use decisions.
The resolution, which Davidson said
was a response to the building of the
Alumni Center, asks UNC to conserve
green space on campus, to include stu
dent representatives in earlier stages of
land-use and construction decision
making processes and to conduct stu
dent opinion polls on future land use.
"I don't think it's unreasonable for
the administration to do this at all,
considering it's our campus and the
campus of future students," Davidson
said Thursday.

Shefte said that the plan was expen

for them.

UNC's newly formed Civic Invest
ment Committee is combining its inter
est in finance with a desire to better the
community.
The committee formed this sum
mer by two students plans to use
profits on capital investments, along
with volunteer and service work, to
make its contribution to society.
The idea for the committee sprang
from a lunchtime conversation in Char
lotte with a First Union investment
officer about young people in society,
said freshman Nigel Long, committee
chairman.
"We talked about young people in
general doing something to contribute
back to society," Long said. "We de
cided to form an investment club be
cause our interests were in that area."

bers each pay monthly dues, which go
toward the committee's investments.

Vitaro said that the Marriott-Domino
contract caused a 95 percent de
crease in Checker's residence hall sales.
He said students should be given a
choice of pizza, and that every inter
ested company that agreed to the con
tract should be allowed to be on the
plan.
"If given the proper time, most local
operations could compete (with
Domino's). We were doing quite well
until the meal card plan came about,"
Vitaro said.
Joe Cramer, supervisor of the Pizza
Hut regional office, said his company

classes and foreign language through
level three.
Committee members said they could
not discuss the proposals under consid
eration, b,ut students offered their own
ideas concerning the math and foreign
language requirements.
