Report finds no 1990 football-related deaths ' For the first time in the 60 years that records have been kept, there were no deaths during the 1990 football season directly attributable to injuries suffered on the field, according to a UNC study. Reports are based on newspaper sto nes that come to Chapel Hill from around the country and information from the National Collegiate Athletic Associa tion, the National Federation of State High School Associations and about 150 volunteers who monitor sports ac cidents in their states. . Six deaths were indirectly linked to football during the 1990 season. Three were at the high school level and three at the collegiate level, the study showed. Two of the high school and one of the college students' deaths were caused by hfeart failure. ! Another high school player died fol lowing an asthma attack and a college student died of a heat stroke. I The death of another college player appears to be related to sickle cell ane rrtia.

Committee legislators about budget By Natarsha Witherspoon Staff Writer Members of the Bicentennial Class Committee are hoping to unify the fresh man class at a time when many students are concerned about the state budget crisis and the impact it will have on their education. Committee members plan to sell Bi centennial T-shirts Tuesday through Friday in the Pit, said Committee Chair man Russ Helms. While they are selling the shirts, members will encourage freshmen to write to their legislators about the bud get cuts. The legislators' addresses will be available at the table with sample let ters. "The students can write the letters right there," Helms said. Freshmen will feel the effects of the budget cuts more than other UNC stu dents because they have three to four years left at the University, he said. "I know a lot of us when considering majors will look closely at the classes that are offered," he said. "I hope fresh men will take advantage of this oppor tunity to show support for our class and Directions: From NC 54 ByPass take Jones Ferry Rd. to Old Greensboro Rd. 12.5 miles to (north) for 9 miles to blinking light.

Greg Timmerman, a freshman from Winston-Salem, said he thought the letter- writing campaign was a good idea. "I think the situation for the future depends on the state legislature," he said. "I don't think the recent demon stration will have any effect on the situation." David Lanier, University registrar, said courses usually taken by freshmen and sophomores were hit the worst when the University was forced to eliminate classes because of budget cuts. But, he said, "Eighty percent of the rising sophomores got over 12 hours through registration." Maleikka Hardy, a freshman from Charlotte, said she was concerned that political science classes might be can celed next semester. "I think things will get worse, the more classes that are canceled," she said. Donald Jicha, General College asso ciate dean, said, "I think we're going to have some difficulty with the incoming freshman class because what's left goes to the new freshmen."

General Alumni Association cute ex-officio member voting By Cathy Oberle StaffWrtter Ex -officio members of the General Alumni Association, including the University 's student body president, will no longer be allowed to vote on board decisions. Board members voted at a recent meeting not to allow ex-officio mem bers to vote on issues, but they still can Crisis center needs volunteers due to rarae incident increase By Cheryl A. Herndon Staff Writer Rape is on the increase. It is the fastest growing violent crime, accord ing to national statistics and Anna Bess Brown, Volunteer CoordinatorDirect Services of the Orange County Rape Crisis Center. This makes volunteer services cru cial, Brown said. The center is seeking volunteers to be trained as companions, child advocates and community educa tors. Volunteer training will begin May 4 from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Training ses sions will continue every subsequent Tuesday and Thursday from 7 to 10 p.m. through June.

"We're going to try to get them the courses they can use and they want," Jicha said. Freshmen especially will have diffi culty registering for English, foreign language and math classes because most of them take these classes, he said. Jennifer Royston, a freshman from Cov ington, Ga., said exams in her physi cal education class were taken orally because there was no money to print exams on paper. "I think it's a good education but it is discouraging to have all the budget cuts, especially as an out-of-state student." But many freshmen said they had not felt the effects of the budget cuts. Mike Esposito, a freshman from Clemmons, said, "Freshman usually take General College perspectives, so many haven't been affected." Deitra Williams, a freshman also from Clemmons, said she was able to register for all the classes she needed. "I haven't really been affected but I do feel things will get worse," she said. pm in our festive bar. H The majority of reports police re ceived from witnesses stated that the warning lights and the siren on DeWeese' s car were not in operation, the report states.

We try to dispel those myths," she said. "Then we do a night on the victim who is the victim and what does she experience," she said. "We do a night on date and acquaintance rape, and a night on special populations, so we get a real good overview on some of the diverse populations that might be call ing us." Volunteers will attend programs on self-protection and sexual harassment, general listening skills, resources and referrals in the area, and child sexual abuse, she said. Volunteers will visit community or ganizations, including the Helpline fa cility, to talk about suicide prevention. "One night we go to the emergency . room and find out what happens to a rape victim there," Brown said. "One struction center on N.

"University Village will be a spe cialty shopping center with a restau rant pizza take-out, video store, dry cleaners and a bank," said Robert Perry of the East West Partners develop ment firm, which designed the com-? plex. "There will also be other leases we are still working on." The center will consist of about 22,000 square feet of retail space and 8,000 square feet of office space, he said.

But the decision should not affect students because there has not been a divided vote on the board in at least nine years, Dibbert said. "It shouldn't affect anybody," he said.

No previous experience is required to be a volunteer at the center, unless a person is coming to do something very specific, like community education, she said. Community educators lead programs designed to promote awareness and pre vention of rape, sexual assault and child sexual abuse.

"The town was right," Perry said. 'The site is not large enough to ac commodate a structure such as the movie theater... The new project is a result of a compromise worked out with (homeowners). "We hope University Village will be a very convenient little neighbor hood center that will lessen drive time for residents in the area." Charles Zug III, a resident of the Oaks subdivision on N.C.
