This year, Dr! Lampman is serving as a visiting professor at the New York State School Cliff Mitchell Staff Writer Hello, Campus Police? There's a bomb in Grogan Hall and it's set to go off around 2:00. That call, which was received by the Campus Security office Friday morning around 1:30 ajn., prompted the girls of Grogan Hall to brave the elements for a walk to the cafeteria, bundled in blankets and winter coats. There they stayed until after police could search the dorm. Approximately six Greensboro squad cars, plus two from Campus Security, responded to the call. They waited until after the time that the alleged bomb was supposed to go off, and proceeded to search the building. One city patrolman said that they "didn't find any bomb, but we sure did find a lot of other stuff you'd be amazed at what the girls leve laying around when they have to get up and leave at 1:00 in the morning." The dormitory was reopened approximately an hour and a half later. No further details were available from Campus Security.

One of the girls was Cliff Mitchell Staff Writer The North Carolinians for Impeachment, held their state-wide rally yesterday afternoon in Memorial Auditorium in Raleigh, addressing themselves to the question of the impeachment of President Nixon. Among those speaking for impeachment were Michael Curtis, a Greensboro attorney, Wilbur Hobby, President of the North Carolina AFL-CIO, Larry Littly, Coordinator of the North Carolina Black Panther Party, and Ford Runge, Student Body President of UNC-Chapel Hill. The rally was moderated by Sarah Evans Boyte, a part time professor at UNC-G Curtis said that there was no question in his mind that the President could be impeached, and has in fact "done more than any President in history to subvert the Constitution and the guarantees of the Bill of Rights." Curtis stated, that from a legal view, the President may be impeached for failing to "excercise his constitutional duty to control his appointees and agents," and added that whether or not he should be removed from office "will be for the Senate and ultimately for the American people to decide when it weighs the evidence against him." Hobby said that our country is in a state of crisis and that we must have a President that can command the respect of the American people and of the Congress. Hobby added that he believes that President Nixon does not know how. nor will he ever be able, to regain this respect. Hobby also said that impeachment is a "fair and honest trial where he (the President] can prove his innocence or guilt,. . .only this will restore the confidence of the.American people in the Constitution and in the President." He also claimed that the President was "obstructing justice by calling members of Congress to the White House to hear him personally plead his case." It would be the senate's responsibility to either acquit the President or remove him from office. Hobby charged the audience that it was ihcir responsibility lo restore honesty in government. This, he said, could be done through a letter writing campaign lo their Congressmen expressing their sentiments about Ihe impeachment of the President. He also said that the AFL-CIO was working on a letter writing campaign to enable evejy union member to express their sentiments lo their Congressmen. The AFL-CIO has asked for the President to either resign or be impeached. Hobby concluded by saying that he hoped Nixon would have "his day in court .. . and if he has his day in court, justice will de 'CoraS&V sponsored reading to present Miller, Deagon, Katz: women as artist this year's second CORADDI reading, featuring presentations by three women poets, will be held Saturday night at 8:30 in St. Mary's House on Walker Avenue.

Staff Photo by Paul Braxton Dr. Florescu presents: Dracula the hero This is the last paper for the semester. We wish you Merry Exams & Good Christmas. Radu Florescu Staff Photo by Bill Hunt John Schoffstall Staff Writer "Where are you, Dracula, now that we need you?" So goes the complaint of the Rumanian peasants, even today, for the Dracula prototype, a fifteenth century prince named Vlad the Impaler, is still revered in Rumania as the father and savior of his country. Dr. Radu Florescu, a noted Dracula scholar and Rumanian historian, said in a lecture given in Aycock last night that Vlad is remembered as a Rumanian George Washington even though he killed more people, proportionate to the size of his country, than did Hitler or Stalin. Vlad the Impaler was named, according to Dr. Florescu, after his favorite method of execution: he impaled his victims on high pointed stakes. This novel device he applied widely and with great success. When he defeated an invasion of Transylvania by the Turkish' army (thus earning himself the 'George Washington' sobriquet) he impaled those Turks he took prisoner. To bring the nobility into line he impaled them. He impaled those unpatriotic to Transylvania, the country's indigent, those he believed to be lawbreakers, ambassadors who annoyed him, and sundry others. This policy created a condition of peace in Transylvania and an honesty in its inhabitants that the country had never seen before and perhaps since. Vlad placed a golden, jewel-studded goblet at a stream so that weary travelers might drink. It was not stolen during all his reign. 'Vlad was known as 'Dracula,' which means *Son of the Devil' in the old Rumanian tongue, but there are no indications, said Dr. Florescu, that he was a vampire. Vampire myths, common worldwide, according to Dr. Florescu, are especially prevalent in the Balkans. There the native folk still hang garlic over their lintels and send naked virgins on virgin horses into the graveyards to hunt out vampires. It is believed that the horse will stop at a vampire's grave. It was the Anglo-Irish author Bram Stoker who first united these two Middle-European legends and created the Dracula known in the West today, says Dr. Florescu. Florescu first lectured on his work, then presented a film based on IN SEARCH OF DRACULA, a book co-authored by himself and Raymond McNally, an expert on vampirism. He said that his search for the historical Dracula grew out of a homesickness for Rumania, where he was bom. » With JIM ALLEN Decembers
