GREENVILLE N. CAROLINA
VOLUME III, NUMBER 61
WEDNESDAY, JULY 19 1972
Construction begins on by-pass Enrollment
declines
Construction began last week OH thecrural
Business District Loop m Greenville
Construction had been stated 10 begin in
November of lu70. bul has been held up since
thai nine by a lawsuit Involving the former
mayor of Greenville, Frank M Woo ten
The road will begin on the c-asi side ol Reads
Street and extend toward Clement Dormitory,
curving in a loop around Georgetowne Shoppes
It will eventually come out on Pitl Street When
finally completed the circle will serve as a
by-pass lor the downtown mall area
The new road is almost certain to create
some problems lor the store owners in that
area Several of these owners were contacted
and asked their feelings on the road One
woman, who asked not to be identified, said. "I
don't think it's necessary It 'i costing a great
deal of lederal money which could be better
spent It's a shame to tear down houses and
trees to pour concrete I think it will hurt im
business, too. To re-route traffic on a by-past
seems to me to be defeating the purpose of the
downtown renewal-to encourage shopping "
Several Othei merchants expressed the belief
that the road would, in fact, be an asset to the
shopping centei One merchant staled thai ihe
new road will double the amount ol parking
space now available and provide a better Mew
of the stores from the road
According to Larry If.If ol the Greenville
redevelopment (ommiaaion, the completion
date of the segment ol the loop between Fifth
Street andotanche is set for January ol 1973
Holt said thai a temporary walkway to be used
during the construction period is to be built to
provide access from tile dormitories to the
shopping center However, the decision to build
the walkway is the perogalive of the contractor
A permanent walkway is scheduled to be
built aftei final construction hut according to
Molt, only about hall of the needed money is
on hand at the moment. "I hope that the
university, the students and the Student
Government Association will contribute to the
building of the walkway in the event thai
sufficient funds are not available for it's
completion said Holt.
Abortion faces opposition
NEW ROAD WILL miss Clement Dormitory by twelve feet, (see story above and to right)
ACC must raise gate
(AP)-Staiting with the 1973 season.
Atlantic Coast Conference schools will
guarantee visiting football teams $40,000 or 50
percent of the gate whichever is greater The
minimum guarantee now is $35,000
The decision to raise the minimum came last
Thursday at the end of a two-day meeting of
ACC athletic directors, assistant athletic
directors, fund raisers and sports information
directors. The meeting was held at North
Carolina State.
In addition to raising the minimum
guarantee the athletic directors appointed to a
Committee to reivse the conference's football
contract to liberalize game expenses and
establish ticket prices.
The group also appointed a committee to
Study insurance costs.
ACC Commissioner Bob James of
Greensboro said, "We're all concerned about
the costs of insurance for travel, medical care
and catastrophe insurance, and we have
appointed a committee to review these costs
and try to economize yet still get the best
protection possible in this area
The committee will report at the next
meeting of the group in November at the
University of Virginia
In other action, the athletic directors
decided that schools will be allowed to suit up
fourteen instead of twelve players at the ACC
Basketball Tournament in March. The move is
designed to let teams bring in some players
from the junior varsity squads.
The group also decided that although the
conference will have a baseball tournament
next season, point standings for the Carmichael
Cup will be based on regular season play and
not on results of Ihe tournament
(AP)Just one year ago. advocates of
legalized abortion were riding a favorable
current of state legislation and court decisions
that seemed to point to an irresistible trend.
Alaska Hawaii, Washington and New York
had greatly liberalized their laws, virtually
providing abortion on request Thirteen other
states and the District of Columbia allowed
abortions under certain circumstances. More
than thirty other states were considering new
abortion legislation.
Bul today, a full-Hedged counteroffensive is
gathering force in an election year that has
politicians stepping warily on an emotional and
politically sensitive issue.
Right to Life committees have formed in
virtually every state, conducting mail
campaigns, educational programs, protests and
lobbying drives in legislatures. So successful
were their efforts that only one state. Florid .
has enacted abortion changes this year, and a
liberal law in New York was retained only by
Governor Nelson A Rockefeller's veto of the
repeal act.
The Democratic National Convention's
platform committee defeated a proposal for a
legalized abortion plank. "We can't be known
as the abortion party one committee member
commented.
Senator George McGovern. the Democratic
presidential nominee, has called abortion
reform a "no win issue" and contends it should
be left ud to the states
President Nixon said publicly he couldn't
square "abortion on demand with my personal
belief in the sanctity ol human life, including
the life of the yet unborn "urist business, but is
neither begins nor ends at life, including thr life
ot the yet unborn
The strength of the opposition in New York
came as a surprise to many reformers
"We were really caught off guard Back in
1970. we though! the abortion issue in New
York was secure and that progress throughout
the country would be automatic said Linda
Zimmerman, national coordinator for the
Woman's National Abortion Action Coalition
WO-VAAC. It came as a shock I trunk
abortion reform will be a long and difficult
campaign, with some defeats ahead I'm sure "
In addition lo New York, many other state
legislatures have felt the pressures of organized
opposition.
This past year, moves for liberalization were
defeated in Georgia. Indiana. Rhode Island.
Colorado. Delaware. Maine. Kansa. Iowa.
Illinois. Michigan. Pennsylvania, Massachusetts
and Connecticut

John Connally
(API-Former Treasury Secretary John B
Connally, a Democrat and close ally of
President Nixon, has fired a verbal barrage in
'what promises to be a continuing White House
campaign assault on Senator George McGovern,
The Democratic presidential nominee.
President Nixon has said he will avoid public-
Involvement in politics until after next month's
Republican convention. But he let Connally use
the front lawn of the Western White House on
I Friday to take roundhouse swings at McGovern
before cameras and microphones.
Identifying himself as a life-long Democrat
who never bolted the party ticket. Conally said
he will not support McGovern and will try to
rally Democrats behind Nixon.
Conally took aim at McGovern's pledge to
bring home all American tioops and war
prisoners (rom Southeast Asia within ninety
days after his inauguration if elected
"Obviously said Connally. "a president on
the United States has no capacity, no power to
bring home prisoners of war in the hands ol the
North Vietnamese
"It is an unfair statement, and it is a
statement that, frankly, sabotages the efforts of
this administration and of the peace negotiators
in Paris to try to bring the war to an end
Connally came here to report to Nixon on a
thirty-five day trip around the world
undertaken at the President's request.
Asked about continuing speculation that
Nixon might tag him to replace Vice President
Spiio T Agnew on the GOP ticket, Connally
said he doesnT want the job and doesn't
expect it will be offered.
'Skipper' Bowles
(AP)Democratic gubernatorial nominee
Hargrove "Skipper" Bowles says he will vote
i the McGovern-Eagleton ticket, but he
dicated he would avoid any entanglement
Ith the national Democratic campaign
"Senator McGovern's nomination doesn't
.ange my campaign plans one bit Bodies
lid Friday. "I've taken no part whatsoever in
SENATOR GEORGE McGOVERN
the selection ot the Democratic nominee. My
time has been spent in running for governor,
and, believe me, that's a fulltimc job.
"When I filed for governor, I swore on the
Bible to vote for the party's nominees, and I'm
certainly going to do that he said
Sam Ervin
(AP)Senator Sam Ervin said he had always
supported the Democratic presidential ticket
and he has no reason to think he might do
otherwise this election year
The Notth Carolina Democrat said at his
home in Morganton that several of his
Republican friends, commenting on the
nomination of Senator George McGovern,
believe it would be bad to have a liberal
Democrat in the White House
Ervin said if there were a liberal president,
then "the GOP members of Congress could
start voting like sensible people-a thing they
haven't done since Nixon became President
Jimmy Carter
(AP)Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, one
of Senator George McGovern's most persistent
Southern critics, said last Thursday the
Democratic presidential candidate may be able
to carry the South in November
Carter told newsmen McGovern is moving
closer to positions that could be accepted by
Southern voters. He said McGovern appears to
be willing to seek what Carter called equal
treatment oi the South under federal civil rights
laws
McGovern and Senator Henry M Jackson of
Washington received 14 votes each from the
Georgians in Wednesday night balloting for the
nominee Representative Shirley Chisholm ot
New York received 12. Alabama Governor
George Wallace 11 and the other vote went to
former North Carolina Governor Terry Sanford
Carter had projected accurately the vote
before the nominating session. He endorsed
Jackson on Tuesday, almost certainly swaying
delegation support for the senator Carter made
Jackson's nominating speech, stiessinghis stand
for a strong defense policy
The governor was among several others who
spent two hours with McGovern at a breakfast
meeting Tuesday He said later that he told
McGovern what would be necessary tor him to
carry Georgia and the rest ot the South.
Carter said he told McGovern he should
insert a strong defense plank and stress the
work incentive aspects of any welfare reform
proposal
The governor was in the van guard of a Stop
McGovern among governors at the National
Governors' Conference ai Houston, attempting
to enlist the aid of others.
"1 think we succeeded in slowing him down
and making him clarity his position on the
issues Carter said "He reversed himself on tax
reform and welfaie. at least an indirect result ol
our efforts to slow him down It we had not
been active, he would have ridden through
without having to talk to people like me "
"I doubt if he would have paid much
attention to the South said Carter
McGovern's own supporters in the
delegation were far from certain that he could
carry Georgia. "It wdl be very tough, I can't kid
you about that said I ugenc Bianchi of
Atlanta, an Emory University profes The
Wallace delegates saw no chance for hun "1
don't care who he puts on the ticket said Mrs
Phyllis Farrell of Savannah "There's all this
talk about low leftist he is The people in my
district told me that if he's the nominee, they'll
lead a Democtats for Nixon move in Georgia
I
Hugh Scott
(AP)Senate Republican Leader Hugh Scott
said today Senator George McGovern's tax
reform plan is going to hurt the average
American guy and hurt hun a lot
Scott told the Senate that the plan as
originally presented would not just mean higher
taxes for the rich but aiso for middle-income
Americans
"He is revising his plan and we must wait to
see the new version the Pennsy rvaman said
McGovern.s original plan would end various
deductions and exemptions and put into effect
a ssstem of tax credits as an alternative
Mike Mansfield
Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield
commented that he welcomed searching
criticism oi the proposals ol the Democratic
presidential nominee
"We will be ready to do the same for the
proposals of the Republicans he said
fAP)-Dr Wiiham Friday, president of the
16-campus University ot Northjmima. said
lasl Saturday that the number ol applications
foi enrollment of state-supported schools is on
the decline
Friday also agreed with results ol a national
survey which found thai 87 percent ot United
States colleges and universities still had
openings this month for fall
Although I haven't checked ihe figures in
the past few weeks, it is my understanding that
there are available spaces in all institutions with
the exception of Appalachian Stale and the
university here at Chepel Hill Fndas said
The national survey, conducted b the
National Association of College Admissions
Counselors, estimated that there are 300.000 to
500.000 current student openings in I S
colleges and universities
The survey attributed the large number of
openings to economic conditions, changes in
draft laws that no longer make college
attendance necessary to avoid military service.
growing doubt about the value of a college
degree and the breaking of "lock step" school
attendance
Friday said. "The economic factor and the
mobility of today's students are especially
important considerations Increasing numbers
of students are getting out to work for awhile
Agnew for Pres?
(APl-Vice President Spiro Agnew says if he
decides to seek re-election as vice president it
will mean he is keeping open his options tor an
eventual bid tor the presidency.
In a copyright story in the Manchester
Union Leader. Agnew indicated that President-
Nixon had not yet advised htm whethei he
would ask Agnew to be his running mate
Agnew said it was a decision the President
"should make on a cold, realistic, political basis
without any feelings ot personal affinity tot the
individual, because what really is going to
market here u the welfare of a pmrty and in
ability to remain in power to effectuate its
policies
Agnew' said he had made "no cold, hard
decision to seek the presidency
"You could rely on the fact that if I'm a
candidate for vice president, I want to al least
preserve my options about where I'm going to
eventually seek the presidency he said
U.S. accused of
fake withdrawal
tAPt-Pravda accused the United States
Monday of faking its withdrawal from Vietnam
and calied for peace negotiations on the basis of
Communist proposals
"There is no Pentagon withdrawal
whatsoever from Vietnam
"American units are simply moving to other
position commentator Vitaly Korionov wrote
in the Soviet Communist party newspaper
He said the missions of troops removed from
Vietnam were being assumed by L.S forces in
other parts of the Pacific area
"But the courageous Vietnamese people and
patriots of Laos and Cambodia have
inexhaustible will for victory the article
continued
"The tacts show ever more convincingly that
the Pentagon will not be able to get a mihtars
solution to the problem in Vietnam The only
way to a peace settlement is the way of
negotiations, the effective basis of which is
provided by the world known proposals ol the
Ptovisional Revolutionary Government of Ihe
Republic of South Vietnam and the Democratic
Republic of Vietnam "

The kitchen was in a shack

of the heavy dew from the
crops.
The rain had ruined the
cucumbers, and it was still too
wet to pick tomatoes We were
headed for the cabbage fields
Few of the men had
experienced with cabbage. The
farmer- a bull-necked, thick
armed rotund man wearing a
thin-browed straw hat - showed
how a cutter should peel back
the outer leaves ot the cabbage
hold it to one side and slice the
stalk
It looked simple But before
the day was ovet my body
would ache from inching in a
stoop position along the
quarter mile long rows
A gusty wind whipped the
gray clouds away. and soon the
sun created an outdoor steam
hath in the wet field.
There was no drinking water
there Some of the men licked
water from the worm-infested
cabbages Conversations about
home, friends, and prospects
tor work for tomorrow
dwindled as the sun bore down
hotter and the rows seemed to
get longer
Wiihni a houi the wind
died down i ireryone was ioon
drenched in sweat
Hie lannei would not be
pinned down on Imw much he
would pay the workers
"I'll see how you boys do, "
he said with a thin smile There
was some grumbling among the
men, but they needed work.
In the afternoon the
workers clamored so much lor
water that the farmer sent one
of his regular employees with a
truck to get some The water in
ihc large metal container with
a spigot in the bottom left sill
in the bottom ol the red plastic
cup that was passed around
When we knocked off work
at 5 p.m our crew of six
cutters had chopped about
30,000 pounds of cabbage, 600
bags of 50 pounds each
The farmer paid $1.75 an
hour The men had
been hoping lor 2 an hour.
but hearing they would get
only $1 50. they were satisfied
Each man made S10 50 that
day.
Hatk al the labor camp the
men collapsed on their cots oi
sal squatting in the shade ol
the shanties They said little as
they stated emptily at the
garbage-strewn campyard
Several had the poor man's
cocktail hall pints of red wine
They cost 75 cents a bottle at
the country store
The men would return to
the tomato fields the next day
and they would be glad ol it
Tomato picking is easier than
cutting cabage And there is no
danger of slicing a finger
I told the men before a
photographer arrived that I was
a newsman They were
surprised, but pleased, that the
outside world cared about their
lives.
"Do what you can. will
you? Sammy said
As mosquitoes became
active the men retreated to
their cots for a few mintues of
rest betore the insects came in
to feast

In Mils area, trees are being uprooted.

I he redevelopment project has been

it seems .1 hit irrational that dormitories
were constructed deliberately so close to
the site of the planned road.Certainly j

Democrats hedge on ticket support
We read with interest the comments
ol several ot our state Democratic
nominees foi public office concerning
their support ol the national Democratic
M 1 iovern 1 agleton ticket
One I the more interesting reactions
came from Hargrove "Skipper" Bowles,
the Democratic nominee tor Governor.
Bowles hedged with the statement that
he had pledged to support the
Democratic nominee long before the
convention
But perhaps the most interesting
comment w.is that of ongressman Nick
Galifianakis, who came out with a
disclaimer noting that despite the
national ticket's composition he would
"continue tiering moderate" programs
and policies as a candidate tor the
United States Senate
Galifianakis, who handily unseated
the aging B Everett Jordan in the
Democratic primary contest for the
nominati in, will face one of the
country's most outspoken reactionaries
in November. Jesse Helms But unlike
Helms, whose conscience compelled him
to switch parties because "he thought
and voted Republican Galifianakis
apparently is rotating with the summer
breees
What a choice' On the one hand we
have Helms, whose duel fault is that he
is to brittle to bend to the reality of the
times, and on the other hand, we have a
man who seems willing ,? ildjp,
public whim m order to be elected
It's our bet that ,11 the hesitant
Democratic candidates will be quick to
ralK round the party Hag once the
campaign gets rolling

Yippies plan to set Miami convention on ear
By JACK ANDERSON
Vacation time is raj idl coming to a close
for the radical movement in Miami Beach
The same loosely-organized group of Zippies
and Yippies who cavorted and sunbathed
during the Democratic Convention are now-
holding serious strategy sessions aimed at
embarrassing President Nixon during the
Republicanonvcntion next month
My source tor this information is my own
long-haired teen-age son, Kevin, who infiltrated
the radical movement while I was in Miami
Beach foi the Democratic Convention
Kevin tells me that ain Abbie Hotlman, a
vippie tor all seasons, has held a numbet of
summit meetings with Ins unpredictable
lieutenants,
Kevin was present when Hoffman was
seeking 10 out maneuver federal snoopers Foi
the benelit ot electronic snooping devices.
Abhie and triends would meet in their gaudy
headquarters and lay out one set of plans
Then, the plotters would slip outside and
privately draw up a different strategy
The H.isk ami ol the radicals, reports Kevin.

( onvention into a carnival of confusion
GOP SNOOPS
Meanwhile, the Republicans have done s ,ne

Wandering through the Convention Hall among
all the Democrats earlier this month. I spotted
two top Republicans They were GOP Vice
(airmail Dick Herman and his assistant. Jim
Cale Posing as service personnel, the two
explained they were actually suing up facilities
in preparation foi their own convention in
August
Both Herman and dale are worried about
secutitv .11 the convention. They have
Instructed Republican security agents to work
closely with Miami Beach Police Chief Rocky
Pomerance. the hefty, jovial cop who is now
intensely evaluating contingency plans to
handle what looks like a raucous week with the
radicals
while maintaining cordial relation, with
Yippie leaders Pomerance has kept in constant
touch with the FBI Pomerance receives FBI
reports from every major city in the nation
Informing him ot known radicals leaving for
Miami In addition. Florida police have staked
out all tl. major roads coming into Miami.
They arc keeping a running tally of the cars,
buses ind campers carrying potential
trouble makers into the state

Fried chicken magnate, Colonel Harlan
Sanders passed out free fried chicken and paid

END OF A DREAM
Hubert Humphrey, the happy warrior of
national politics, has seen his lifelong quest foi
the presidency come to a frustrating end
Humphrey ha, spent the last twelve years
coming in second in national politics. For four
years, he served as the nation's 11 inbcr two
man under Lyndon Johnson only to come in
second by less than one percent to Richard
Nixon in 168 This year. Hubert has come m
second again-this time to his one tune-
next door neighbor. George MeCovern
Have these defeats cmbitteied Humphrey
Will he work hard for MeCovern 1 predict that
Humphrey will devote himself fully to electing
MeCovern president. In a politician like
Humphrey, the basic instincts never die He will
campaign as hard for MeCovern as he would lor
himself
COMPUTER ASASSIN PROFILES
Trying to predict who. where and when a
man will attempt to kill a president is an
impossible job The Secret Service has tackled it
by setting up a computerized tile of potential
assassins The trouble is, they have gotten a
little carried away.
The agency's files contain the names of
scores of potential president killers, whom most
people always thought were harmless
Take, for example, former baseball great
Jackie Robinson. Five days after President
Nixon took office. Robinson joined a small
group of blacks who stopped by a White House
gate and asked to see the President
It's doubtful that Jackie Robinson knew it,
but the Secret Service was taking notes Wrote
