Herndon Staff Writer Chapel Hill police officials are in creasing security downtown after nu merous incidents of violence this sum mer raised fears about safety.

The Golden Dragon Franklin Centre 929-5728 Downtown Chapel Hill Open 1 1 am - 8pm has noticed an increased amount of vio lent activity in the downtown area over the past few summers, said Jane Cous ins, police department spokeswoman. The following are some of the inci dents that occurred while students were out of town this summer: Business Two drive-by shootings and two assaults occurred during a melee fol lowing a July 25 dance at Cat's Cradle on West Franklin Street. Two teenagers were charged with shooting guns in town, assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill and from page 1A isting structures, he said. No money for new construction was allocated, Sibly said. The new business-school building was the largest project included in the $600 million bond issue. The state will not authorize construc tion of the building until the school has all the funds it needs to complete the project, he said. "We can't have them get half way through the building and run out of money ," Sibly said. "They can go ahead and design and take bids." Gilbert said the school needs a new building because Carroll Hall is too small for the growing school. "We're bursting our seams in Carroll Hall," he said. "There's not enough offices and classrooms to accommo date our faculty and students. " The School of Journalism and Mass Communication plans to move into Carroll Hall once it is vacated by the business school. Richard Cole, dean of the journalism school, said he was opti mistic the move would occur as sched uled. "I hope very much that the legis lature will look at it again and look at it favorably," Cole said. The journalism school, now located in Howell Hall, also needs a new loca tion. Cole said. injury to personal property. Last week, a robber shot the win dows out of two cars at the Community Center on Estes Drive. Cousins said some changes had been made at the department in response to the increased downtown violence. "We've added some bicycles to the downtown patrol," she said. "And our bike officers are riding at night as well as during the day.". Cousins said the people charged with causing violence this summer could not be isolated in a specific age or social group. "They are a cross-section of people, including teenagers, older people, local people and out-of-towners," she said. Although this summer's shootings have occurred primarily on West Franklin Street, fights near bars on East Franklin Street have also posed prob lems, Cousins said. "There have been some more serious incidents lately on the West Franklin Street and West Rosemary Street area,"! she said. Downtown merchants and the police department have worked closely to gether this summer, hoping to prevent future crime, Cousins said. Eddie Williams, owner of the 24-' hour restaurant, Time Out, said the sum mer violence did not threaten his busi ness. Williams also said he did not want TimA flu In Iw accniaAf tuitl, tlia . 1 1 1 1 VUl kU lV UO.Il'V TVllll lilt violent incidents of the summer. "We've got people who have been here for years who are very good at controlling it, and they're instructed to call the nolice at the drnn nf a hat." he said. Williams said he thought most of this summer's crime was committed by; people coming in from towns surround-; ing Chapel Hill and not by students or I feel like those incidents were iso lated incidents and that they really oc cur just about every summer," he said.
