Box 10000, Greensboro, N.C. 27404. Wike speaks out Jackson County Board of Commissioners Chairman W. Bruce Wike suggested in a Tuesday broadcast on WRGC radio that a suit filed against the commissioners is an attempt by the politically ambitious to discredit the board. Ms, Veronica Nicholas, president of the Jackson County League of Women Voters, the group suing the board for allegedly violating North Carolina's open meetings and public documents statutes, is scheduled to make a rebuttal on the Sylva radio station next week. The suit charges the board, and its accountant Dan K. Dietz, with illegally barring the public from five meetings since May and with withholding at least two public documents from public view. A public hearing concerning a proposed temporary injunction to prevent the board from continuing to allegedly break the "Sunshine Laws" is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Sept. 19 in the Jackson County Courthouse in Wike said it will cost approximately $10,000 to defend the board in the lawsuit. He did not say who will pay the costs, who will receive them, nor whether County Attorney Creighton W. "Zeke" Sossomon will defend Ms. Nicholas will be on WRGC (68-AM) Monday on the "Anything Goes" show between 8:35-9 a.m. Iobst to speak Alpha Phi Omega service organization will sponsor an address by Dr. Richard Iobst of Cullowhee, district Scouting chairman, at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 8, in the Cherokee Room of Hinds University Center. Dr. Iobst, University archivist and coordinator of special collections, has been active in the Daniel Boone Boy Scout Council for a number of years. A graduate of the University of North Carolina, from which he received the Ph.D. degree, Dr. Iobst formerly was a member of the history department faculty at WCU. Earlier, he was a member of the staff of the Division of Archives and History in Raleigh and is an authority on North Carolina history. Food forum's first Food and world population will be the topics for discussion September 12 at 7 p.m. in Hoey Auditorium at Western Carolina University, at the first meeting of the University Forum for Contemporary Affairs. Participants in the meeting will include Dr. H. F. Robinson, WCU chancellor and an expert on world food and population problems; Dr. Barbara Cosper, WCU associate professor of home economics; and Dr. Vijaya Samaraweera, WCU lecturer in history. The University Forum for Contemporary Affairs is a WCU program designed to encourage serious discussion of current issues, and to bring together scholars from different disciplines for such discussion. Topics scheduled for discussion in future meetings include censorship and pornography, the energy crisis, African politics, genetic engineering, changing sex roles in America, violence in America, ethics and altruism, and "Who Rules America?"

Traffic-Security draws more fire A protest against the University parking system is brewing as a history professor, who wishes to remain anonymous, has decided to refuse to buy his parking sticker declaring it unconstitutional. The professor has said since the commutor students are now coming only two or three times a week it is unnecessary for him to buy a sticker. It seems the professor parks in the Baptist Church commutor parking area and he says the lot is only about half full even during the mid-hours of the day. He has gone further to say if his car is towed away he will probably sue the school on the grounds of it being unconstitutional. While one professor was remaining anonymous, another was vocalizing his displeasure loudly. Professor Joe Meigs discovered last Tuesday from Traffic Security he couldn't buy a Zone One parking sticker. "I couldn't believe it, because I'm tennis coach this year and I couldn't see hauling that equipment back and forth across campus." Mr. Meigs continued, "I went to them (Traffic and Security) the first time early Tuesday and they said Zone One was filled but they would put me on the waiting list. A couple of hours later I realized I would have to carry the (tennis) equipment so I went back. This time they said they had room as someone had dropped out or something and. 1 got it. Otherwise I would have been stuck in a ZoheTwb area." According to Traffic and Security secretary Darlene Wallace, there is no real parking problem. "We have 20 spaces left in the Zone One parking area as it has been decided to have a 20 per cent oversell in that area." The "oversell" means there will be twelve parking spaces sold in Zone One for every ten spaces which are available. Even with this oversell there should be no trouble finding a parking place for the faculty as Mrs. Wallace pointed out. "Between faculty members not showing up, others who have only night classes, sick secretaries, and other such reasons there should always be plenty of parking spaces." The only real parking problems thus far this year have been from students who didn't want to walk across campus to a class. The result has been many parking illegally, only to return to their car and find a ticket on their windshield. An average of 100 tickets per day are issued by the campus policemen resulting in, "somewhere around 3500 tickets per month" according to Mrs. Wallace. Coupled with these tickets has come a renewed towing contract with the Dillard and Street Towing Service as ordered by Vice-Chancellor for Business Affairs, Hugh MacDonell. According to Mr. MacDonell the crackdown on illegally parked cars, "will continue until May when school lets out." student said,' "tF loo'kV like the' w'recters" are"" going to see a lot of action this year."
