  • WESTERN CAROLINIAN VOICE OF THE STUDENTS Thursday, December 6,1979 Iran A recount of two nations at war (?) By Lee Grant News Analysis As the Iranian crisis enters its second month, it is important to look back and see what has happened throughout the first month to keep a clear picture of what is going on. Several people at this university have expressed curiosity over what is going on due to the fact that when the incident started they shrugged it off as a temporary thing like the first time the embassy was assaulted. Nov. 4-Iranian students overran the U.S. embassy in Tehran despite U.S. Marine guards attempts to hold them off with tear gas. A Tehran radio broadcast states that the students were motivated by a "message" from Ayatollah Khomeini, who denounced the decision to allow the Shah to enter the U.S. Nov. 7-Iran's Premier, Mehdi Bazargan, resigns as the occupation of the U.S. embassy entered its third A gift of love day. Ayatollah Khomeini ordered his Islamic revolutionary council to run the government. The students in Tehran threaten to execute the 60 American hostages if the U.S. attempts any military action. Meanwhile, the U.S. refuses to give in to the students' demands of sending the Shah, who is undergoing cancer treatment, back to Iran. Officials in the U.S. rule out any military action. Nov. 8-U.S. emmissaries, William Miller and Ramsey Clark are refused an audience with Khomeini. Iranian oil exports to the U.S. still continue though it is feared that they will be cut off. Also the PLO decides to side with the students after their attempts to free the hostages fail. At home the first of many Anti-Iranian demonstrations is held outside of the Iranian Consulate in Houston. The demonstrators burned Iranian flags and pushed around Iranians trying to enter the consulate. As the holding of the hostages enters the second Turn to Page 4, please Holder residents help families Xmas By Roycc Smith News Editor This Christmas will be brighter and happier for one Sylva couple. Frank and Sarah, as I'll call them, are an elderly couple who have had their share of hardships over the years. Frank, 76, has had six operations over the past few years which have been unsuccessful in correcting a problem with his hip. He is confined to a wheelchair now and is supposed to return to the hospital December 12 to receive his seventh and hopefully last operation. Doctors say that they will probably be successful this time. The only problem is affording it. Between the two, they receive approximately four hundred dollars per month in Social Security. Four hundred dollars isn't a lot of money for two people to live on "nowadays" when groceries, rent, household bills, and medical expenses have to be paid. The couple cannot get ■Tiedicaid. Sarah, 67, canned a lot of vege- I tables last summer, but that probably 1 won't last all winter. Asked how she ** would manage while Frank was in the hospital this winter she replied I that "she just did not know." Frank and Sarah can now relax and enjoy the kind of Christmas they haven't had in vears. Through the efforts of Patti Lov and the residents of Helder Hall,the couple will have a Christmas tree (which they haven't had for many years), a turkey, and many grocery items, all donated by the residents of Helder. Also collected was about $140 which will help pay Frank's hospital bill. The drive got its start back in August at a workshop for RA's conducted by Helder Area Coordinator Bonnie Bronsoh. According to i urn to Page 9, please. Stroup dea[s with an 'elite clientele1 Vol. XLV, No. 15 Starvin manager fired under unique circumstances A strange chain of. events has occurred at Cullowhee's Starvin' Marvin's on 107, and as a result George Mosher became the former manager. Along with Mosher, three waitresses were fired who were considered by the general populous to be "good waitresses." Mosher said he had had an oral contract with Marvin McHone, the owner, but after operating the restaurant for only three months, McHone's wife gave Mosher his dismissal last Thursday. According to witnesses at the restaurant, McHone's wife, "made a scene" when she 'released' the waitresses on duty at Starvin's in the presence of customers. Mosher also said that McHone had held nine of his ten paychecks because of a loan that Mosher had made. According to Mosher, the checks bounced because of insufficient funds in the owner's account after the loan was completed. One of the main gripes Mosher stressed was that McHone required him to.keep the restaurant open from 11 a.m.-11 p.m. even though it was proven that the 11 a.m.-11 p.m. shift was more costly to operate than to close. The Carolinian also learned that while McHone worked seven days a week, fifteen hours per day (105 hours per week) for $175 a week, plus 95 percent commission manager is receiving $2Q0 per week while only working 42 hours per week. It seems that after Mosher was fired, the owners decided to revert back to Torn to Page 14. He's not your everyday $25,000 attorney By Eddie Yandle Associate Editor After observing every passenger disembark from the DC-8 at the Asheville airport last Thursday, it occured to me that possibly the gentlemen in the faded blue jeans with a brown leather jacket sporting hair past his collar might be who I was looking for. Being the past president and founder of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), a three peice suit probably wasn't his style. However, he didn't seem to fit the sterotyped image of your normal, everyday $25,000 per case attorney either. Kieth Stroup was interesting to say the least. The people who attended his lecture Thursday nitght received a whiff of what one of the biggist activists of this decade was like. Now fighting the laws in the courts, Stroup's law firm (four offices in the US) deals exclusively with smuggling. Relating some of the cases he has dealt with since "leaving NORML this past January, "Stroup said the most ironical part of his cases is that practically all of his clients are still "doing business" while waiting for trial or in some cases, while still in jail. _The arguments of guilt or innocense is never an issue in Stroup's cases.. Rather it deals with the technical aspects of how the "bust" took place. Almost bringing visions of "And Justice for All" to mind, Stroup told liow one case which involved the possibility of a client heading to prison for 20 years had almost become a living nightmare. The client had been caught possessing two roaches (butts of marijuana cigarettes) and some seeds. His first attempt was a flop. The young man received the maximum sentence. Thanks to pressure exerted from NORML, High Times magazine, Playboy and a new trial, he was released after fourteen months. These contradictions in the law is what Stroup's firm, and NORML are trying to change. Turn to Page 14, please Inside today Editorial...2 Letters... * Classifieds...16 Sports...17
