Jones Named New UMB Chairperson
By LEIGH TRAPP
AialaUM N«wt E1H>
By a vote of 205 to 186, Charlie
Jones narrowly defeated his oppo-nent
Homer Yost in the election for
University Media Board Chairper-son.
This election marks a turnover
from the recent election in which
Jones was knocked out of when
Homer Yost and Randall Burgess
took the majority of the votes.
The run-off election was to have
been between Yost and Burgess,
however, due to two decisions, the
new election was held with the can-didates
of the first election, Jones
and Yost. According to a Special
Appeals committee, a new election
between Yost, Jones, and Burgess
would have to be scheduled in fight
of an error made on the elections'
ballot. In the first election, Charles
Webb, who dropped out of the elec-tion,
received a sufficient number of
votes because his name was left on
the ballot despite his notification of
withdrawal from the race. The
Committee ruled this a factor which
could significantly change the
results, so a new election waa called.
Thus, the run-off election was
scheduled to choose between
Burgess, Yost, and Jones. It was at
this time that Randall Burgess, the
Copy Editor of Tht Carolinian, an-nounced
that he was withdrawing
from the race to accept the position
of Associate Editor at Tht Caroli-nian.
This left two candidates in the
race of UMB Chairperson: Yost and
Jones.
The elections were held
December 4-5. According to Elec-tions
Board Chairperson Buck
Buchanon, 401 student* voted in
this election: 101 were commuting
students and the rest were dorm
residents.
When asked about the elections,
Jones said he would like to thank all
those who voted. "I also think
Homer ran a good race. His cam-paigning
really helped draw
voters ... and because this was
such a close election, it just shows
how important it is to vote and how
important it is for voters to keep up
on current issues ..," Jones
commented.
UMB, the organization which is in
charge of budgeting and overseeing
campus media (Pine Needles,
WUAG, Corraddi and Carolinian)
has been without an elected
chairperson since Sharon Vance's
resignation this fall. Jones, who has
been the UMB business manager
for the past year, has been serving
as the acting Chairperson until the
election.
The Chairperson is in charge of
calling and chairing all meetings of
UMB. The Chairperson is also
responsible for countersigning all
requisitions of the University Media
Board. With this in mind, JoneB
plans to call a meeting of UMB this
coming Monday.
Currently, Jones said he is work-ing
on trying to fill the vacancies on
the UMB Board. "Hopefully, we
will complete this project by next
week," he said.
In the future, Jones plans to set
up committees to do some ground-work
on UMB and the various
media constitutions it oversees.
"This is something that should have
been done when UMB was first set
up ... however, due to several in-dividual
crises, no one has been able
to do this original groundwork.
Now that the yearbook problem is
under control and elections are
over, I hope we can start working
on the individual media constitu-tions
very soon," Jones remarked.
Work on individual constitutions
will involve the "alignment" of
several procedures and rules which
currently vary among the different
media branches. One example of
these inconsistencies is the process
of election of each head for the in-dividual
media. Jones said he hopes
to see requirements for all the
editors made clear before the 1984
election for new managers.
Jones said he also hopes to
establish UMB statutes for atten-dance
policies and other UMB ac-tivities.
According to Jones, "I
would like to see this accomplished
with the UMB by this spring. I will
be graduating this spring, and I
would like the next Chairperson to
be able to come in and pick up
everything very smoothly.

Prospectus III Campaign Goal Coming Closer To Reality
GREENSBORO-The University
of North Carolina at Greensboro
has only $958,704 left to raise in
gifts and pledges in order to meet
its $12 million goal in the Prospec-tus
III Campaign.
G. Dee Smith of Winston-Salem,
national chairman of the campaign,
provided a progress report on the
fund-raising effort today and said
the University is well on its way
toward meeting the $1 million
challenge offered by Mr. and Mrs.
Joseph McKinley Bryan of
Greensboro.
"The $1 million challenge gift by
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan has given a new
lift to our campaign this fall," said
Smith. "It has provided a par-ticularly
strong incentive to our
alumni area campaigns which are
now being conducted in districts
throughout the state. Overall, since
the challenge gift was announced on
Sept. 13, slightly over $400,000 in
gifts and pledges, including a
substantial number from
Greensboro, have been made to the
campaign.
"We continue to be highly pleas-ed
with the response we are receiv-ing
to Prospectus III and we are
confident that we will reach our
goal of $12 million in the months
ahead. In fact, we are hopeful that
we will surpass that figure."
Under the terms of the challenge
gift, Mr. and Mrs. Bryan will con-tribute
the $1 million toward the
campaign only after gifts and
pledges to Prospectus III reach $11
million. On Sept. 13, when the
Bryans' gift was announced, the
campaign total stood at $9.6 million.
Now, just over two months later,
the total is up to $10,041,296. If the
$1 million from Mr. and Mrs. Bryan
is added to the total, that pushes it
to $11,041,296.
Thus, as Smith announced, that
leaves $958,704 to be realized to
reach the $12 million goal. In order
to meet Mr. and Mrs. Bryan's
challenge, the $958,704 must be
realized in gifts and pledges by June
30,1984, which is the planned com-pletion
date of the campaign.
Charles A. Hayes of Greensboro,
chairman of the UNC-G Board of
Trustees, commented, "We are
delighted and thankful for the
response we've been receiving from
so many individuals and corpora-tions
and foundations SB well. The
campaign has gone well.
"The $1 million challenge gift by
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan has certainly
been helpful this fall as we sought
additional support for the Univer-sity.
I should point out also that the
alumni area campaigns throughout
the state are providing an additional
boost to the campaign.
"Raising this last $958,000 will be
a challenge as we move into the
final phases of Prospectus III," he
added. "However, with the con-
The Teller Machine Saga At UNC-G
By MARK A. CORUM
Staff Writer
How many times have you need-ed
money for a Friday date or other
weekend activity and gotten to the
Cashier's office too late to have a
check cashed? With limited hours at
the Cashier's office, a lack of banks
nearby that have automatic teller
machines, and not every student
having transportation off•campus, it
is obvious that a definite problem
can arise if a student needs funds
anytime outside of normal business
hours, Monday through Friday. It
is obvious that automatic teller
machines on campus are a next,
necessary step that the university
should make for the convenience of
its students.
The idea of having automatic
teller machines (which would give
students with a bank card 24 hour
access to money from their savings
and checking accounts) on campus
came up as a logical way to make
the UNC-G campus more conve-nient
to students who would other-wise
have to leave campus to get
money. Jack Quigley, a member of
the executive cabinet of Student
Government, said that he came up
with the idea of such machines last
spring and worked during the sum-mer
break talking to financial of-ficials
in his hometown (Aaheville,
NC) to find out "possible advan-tages
and disadvantages from the
private sector's point-of-view."
After expressing his interest in get-ting
ATM s on campus, Quigley was
forwarded to proper officials in
Greensboro who agreed that he
might act as s liason between the
financial institutions and the ad-ministration
of UNC-G.
It was during this time the basic
advantage of having such ATM'B
was first put forward by Quigley:
providing closer relationships be-tween
UNC-G and the city of
Greensboro; the convenience as
respect to travel because not all
students have cars; twenty-four
hour availability of money, to the
public, students, faculty and ad-ministration;
improved efficiency
and shorter lines at the Cashier's of-fice;
and solidifying financial
futures of students were some of
those advantages.
On August 26, a few days after
school began for the fall semester,
Quigley tried to contact the UNC-G
Business Office regarding the
idea and was refused any informa-tion.
He was told that "someone"
would contact him at the beginning
of the next week, and on August 26
a member of the Business Office
called him up to say that it was a
purely administrative matter, and
that he wasn't to contact any banks.
At this point Quigley informed her
about whom he had already con-tacted
and the results of those con-tacts.
He was told that there were
financial questions, as well as the
question of location of the ATMs in-volved
in making such a decision.
After giving this information to the
business office, Quigley was still not
allowed to talk to anyone in the of-fice
about the matter.

tinued support of corporations,
alumni and other friends of the
University, I'm very optimistic that
we will reach our goal."
This fall, campaign kickoff
meetings have been held in all 12
multi-county districts from
Aaheville to Wilmington in the
state. University officials report
that thus far, $120,064 in gifts and
pledges have been realized through
the district campaigns. That does
not include the Greensboro and
High Point area campaigns, which
were held earlier—from April to
June of this year.
Campaign officials pointed out
that gifts by corporations are
leading the way in the Prospectus
III effort. Through mid-November,
corporate gifts and pledges totaled
$3.214,011-or 32 percent of the
total. Not counting Mr. and Mrs.
Bryan's $1 million challenge gift,
other gifts and pledges in the cam-paign
have come from the following
sources: Non-alumni individuals,
12,772.806, or 27.6 percent; alum-ni,
$2,664,899, or 26.4 percent;
foundations, $1,350,216, or 13.4
percent; and other sources,
$49,364, or .6 percent.
University officials note that out-of-
state area alumni campaigns are
planned in several sections of the
country in late winter and early
spring. The Prospectus III Cam-paign
is expected to end by June 30
of 1984.
College Bowl Winners
By SANDY ALVIS
Newt Bator
After surviving numerous gruel-ing
matches, the College Bowl team
that calls themselves the Teased
Weasels has been crowned the
winner.
The Teased Weasels is the alias
for four students. These students
are Tim Blankenship, Matt Wallace,
George Wallace and Barbara Kirn-son.
The Teased Weasels defeated
the Little Friskies in order to gain
the top seat. Little Friskies was
comprised of Carroll Hightower, Ian
McDowell, Byron Woods, Laird
Popkin, and Marylyn Spinner. The
final score was 270 to 130. The two
teams played three games, two of
which the Weasels won.
The Teased Weasels received a
trophy with their name on it and
specially designed College Bowl T-shirts.
The competing teams consisted of
many independent teams, eight
Greeks, two little sister teams, the
English Club, NCSL and a pre-med
group.
This is the first year that there
has been a separate division for
fraternities and sororities. The win-ner
of the Greek division is Sigma
Nu, a new fraternity on campus.
Team captain, Rick Williams, at-tributes
their win to the "diverse
majors of the members of our
team." For example Williams is a
P.E. major, Tony Snapp is a Com-munications
major, Steve Phillips is
a MBA, and Craig Greer is a
Political Science major. Williams
commented that, "We excelled in
our respective fields." They also
give some of the glory to their good
luck charm which they called
"Cyndee Pooley Tootsie Pops."
The Sigma Nu's went by the
name "Sigma Nu On Dis II, the
meaning of which cannot be
printed. Tony Snapp says, "We
received a large trophy that will be
on display in Sharp-Mclver lounge."
Williams praised the College
Bowl operation. "It was a well run,
well orgafiized tournament. We
want to thank Bruce Harshbarger
and the Office of Student
Development."
A varsity team of the four best
players from all of the teams will
now be formed and they will com-pete
for regional and national
recognition.
Bruce Harshbarger, Program
Director for EUC, reports, "this is
the first year EUC Council has
rnsored College Bowl... I think
y've done a good job."
Senate Seeks To Amend
Non-Discriminatory Policy
BY LEIGH TRAPP
Suft Wriur
A resolution, seeking to amend
the UNC-G Non-Discrimination
Policy was passed by the Senate
this past Tuesday evening. The
resolution was made to recognize
the rights of all students on this
campus—including special groups.
At present, there is nothing in the
Non-Discrimination Policy which
states the rights of homosexuals to
be treated in a non-discriminatory
fashion. Currently, the policy
states, "... there shall be no
discrimination on the basis of race,
color, religion, sex, national origin
or handicap."
Those who submitted the resolu-tion
cited the Supreme Court Case
Roe vs. Wade and the US Supreme
Court recognised case NAACP vs.
Alabama to justify the right for
