The Carolinian Non-profit U.S. Poataga PAID Qroonsboro, N.C. PormltNo.30 'Serving the academic community since 1897." November 29,1979 Volume LIX Number 23 The University of North Carolina at Greensboro Mease Call Our Hotline:379-5041 District Attorney Calls On Students By SCOTT BAKER Assoc. New* Editor Greensboro District Attorney, Mike Schlosser came to a classroom in the Forney building yesterday after-noon to urge students to testify against Revolutionary Communist Party members who disrupted a Business Data Processing class on October 10, 1979. Before entering the classroom, Schlosser said "I'm gonna be recruiting witnesses." He, and his in-vestigators Sam Langford were "looking for people who could identify" the individuals who disrupted the class by walking in, distributing pamphlets, and shouting Communist philosophies to the student present. "Subpoena everyone of them and make them show up." Schlosser told the students the purpose of his visit was to establish factual evidence about the incident by getting their account, and to explain to them what to expect once they arrive in court. Schlosser em-phasized, "We're going to need some of you to come to court" in order to relate exactly what went on. He said that RCP members are being charged with "trespassing and disturbing a school meeting after being forbidden to do so." When asked about an expected sentence for these photo by Crutf Rubin Jerry Williamson (L) talks to Sam Langford (middle) and D.A. Mike Schlosser people, the D.A. said, "I'm going to see to it that these people are prosecuted to the hilt," but the judge does the sentencing. Only about half the students in the class stayed to listen to Schlosser. Sixteen students remained, after a large group left at the end of class. Dr. Allen Maynard, the professor of the class, said "I am super-irritated by the people who were here and left," he thought the D.A. should "drag everybody in this class down there,...subpeona everyone of them and make them show up." A few students were worried about testifying again-st the RCP members. One woman asked, "Is there any danger to us personally, in our testifying?," fear-ful of giving her name and address before defendants belonging to an extreme-leftist faction. Schlosser replied that he could ask the judge to allow the student-witnesses to withhold addresses and simply supply their name. He also answered the students that he would make an effort to keep them in court as little time as possible. Court date is set for Thursday, December 6th. "The more people that can come forward and add something to the trial," Schlosser urged, "the better the judge can sense the pulse" of what was going on during the disruption. "We're not going to call thirty people" into court, but if many show up, it would be "a tremendous show of force" in telling the com-munity that "we don't condone this type of activity." "I would like a list of all the people in this class," Schlosser said. Maynard said, "I would be happy to give the names of everyone in here." One student asked "what about failure to show up for ihe sub-peona?," exemplifying the class' fear about iden-tifying the defendants. The D.A. said that those sub-peonaid who failed to appear in court would have to submit a "show-cause" form which would explain the reason why they could not attend. In a show of hands, nine students felt that they could positively identify the RCP members who en-tered the classroom. Maynard and a few students agreed that the female activist present was "the instigator," saying she did most of the talking. Campus Security Director, Jerry Williamson reported that she got away and was not apprehended. Maynard said she led the group into the classroom, began distributing pamphlets and shouting very loudly. He said he asked her what she was doing, but "either she didn't hear me or ignored me, I don't know." Schlosser and Langford requested that each student give a personal account of the incident to help them in preparing the prosecution. Schlosser also spoke of his uncertainty concerning the number of RCP members who would show-up in court. He expected that "at least one of them would not show, maybe more." Schlosser also felt the trial would apear advan-tageous to the RCP, in that it would "provide them a forum," for their philosophies. The D.A. said that he expects a conviction and an active sentence, but also looks for the RCP members to appeal this case in the superior court.

Council Investigates Teacher/Student Sexual Assaults By EDDIE HARDIN Newt Editor A rising number of assaults on students by professors and teachers across the nation has prompted the federal government to appoint a committee to assist in protecting students from sexual harassment. The National Advisory Council Reactionaries Win College Bowl By EDDIE HARDIN Newt Editor The Reactionaries, after com-pleting the season undefeated in five games, won the College Bowl cam-put Championship last week by outdistancing the Insurgents. The Reactionaries' team, Scott Elliot, Bonnie Church, Paul Weller, Jeff Vance, and Kevin Causey, will have their names inscribed on the championship trophy on display in the trophy case in Elliott Center. Also, each member of the team received an Izod sportshirt printed with "UNC-G College Bowl Cham-pions." After the championship, eight UNC-G students were named to the University's Varsity College Bowl Team, and these will represent UNC-G in intercollegiate play this spring. They are graduate students Paul Weller, Barbara Spohrer, and Winston Fitzpatrick, all of Green-sboro, graduate student and player /coach Jeff Vance of Kerner-sville, senior Steve Hardy of Dover Mass., juniors Lewis Jackson of Mount Holly, N.J. and Parry Wilvers of Raleigh, and freshman Henry Wooten of Greenville. Both Weller and Vance are holdovers from last year's varsity team as well as members of the Reactionaries. All the players chosen were selec-ted as all-stars from the recently completed campus intramural College Bowl tournament. In-tramural competition in the quiz game, matching teams of scholars and trivia experts, begins every Oc-tober at UNC-G. The varsity will host Duke, High Point, and UNC-Charlotte in the first annual UNC-G Invitational College Bowl tournament on January 26 in Elliott Center. Tour-nament games are open to the public and will run from noon to 3 p.m. in the Benbow Room of EUC. Three weeks later, the squad will travel to Charlotte for the regional cham-pionship tournament against twenty teams from colleges and universities throughout North and South Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky. The winner of that tour-nament will continue on to the national championships in late spring. Last year's UNC-G squad finished third in the region, behind Davidson College, which then went on to win the national champion-ship in Miami Beach and lose by five points to Cambridge University in the World Championship game in London. The site for this year's national championships has not yet been determined, although San Francisco and Notre Dr*ne. In-diana, have been under con-sideration. A national radio or television ap-pearance this spring or early next fall is also a possibility for the UNC-G team. The College Bowl National Game of the Week is carried every Sunday night over the CBS Radio Network, and negotiations are un dcreway for national television broadcasts of intercollegiate mat-ches beginning in the spring. In addition, the team hopes lo play a special challenge match in early February against a loam made up of UNC-G faculty ascsnbers a* part of their preparation for the regional chasnpioathips lain thai month. Any faculty member* in-terested in competing in that game can contact the varsity's coach. Marshberger. at 379-5SI0 on Women's Educational Programs is conducting the project. Reports of such assaults have increased over the past few years, especially reports of faculty, staff, and other em-ployees of high schools and colleges. As a part of the study, the council is requesting information from former and present victims about their ex-periences, and from any others who may have knowledge of such harassment. According to the council, the responses should describe the type of harassment involved, the in-stitutional and academic setting in which the incident took place, and action taken by the institution if the incident was reported, as well as the eventual outcome. The responses need not provide information which might identify the respondent. The National Council will end this first phase of the program in January, although they welcome comments on this issue at any time. Depending on the nature, scope and circumstances of sexual harassment reported, the council may hold hearings on this subject in the future. Ultimately, the council hopes to make recommendations for appropriate federal action on the problem, if warranted by the project's findings. The Advisory Council is a presidentially appointed body, established by Congress to advise and report on attaining sexual equity in education. Responses should be addressed to the chair of the council. Ms. Eliza M. Carney. 1132 M Street. N.W.. Suite 121. Washington. D.C. 20036.
