Business Networl
based member organization of
Tony Brown's Buy Freedom
campaign, held its first general
meeting Friday, January 22 in
the Greenville Middle School
Cafeteria. But Freedom is a con-
cept originated and developed by
Tony Brown of Tony Brown's
Journal" for the purpose of en-
couraging their members, black
businesses, to patronize each
other.

Focusing on Black Network-
ing? was Friday night's theme,
and Muhammed Nubee, CEO and
Founder of Earth Fragrances of
Raleigh, was the highlight of the
evening. A Raleigh native, Nubce
gave the fifty member audience
his account of his companyTs
beginnings. From March 1984 to
December of that same year, this
multi-level marketing business
grossed over $1 million is sales
after starting with an initial in-
vestment of only $500. Nubec
recalled spending all his free
time while working for the state
(NC) full. ig business
in his living room floor.

Nubee spoke of success as for-
ward progress that you want to
makei? He called the black
business owners present suc-
cessful? because they had open-
ed their own business.

The purpose of NubecTs presen-
tation was to forewarn en-
trepreneurs, both actual and
potential, of some of the pitfalls
entailed in strating a business.
Nubee warned us to anticipate
our companyTs growth, to have
plans to accomodate such, and
that failure to under-capitalize
can create problems as well. He
stressed the need to focusT, and
the Need for a lot of persistence
and . . . preserverance.T

Nubee mentioned how some
people say that you need to be an
MBA before you start a business.
If your desire is big enough,
you'll learn eve: g

PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFUL

desire? to succeed and having
faith in your effort.

Attitude was also discussed,
The power of" oneTs own think-
ing?T was explored. He continued,
Meet cach problem as a
challenge. Look for the oppor-
tunity in that situation (problem)
for growth. Every problem has a
solution.?

He advised that We all have
potential." We must learn to be
creative, imaginative .. . Let
yourself go! Don't be afraid to
brainstorm, Come up with the
avenue to get you where you want
to be.

And at last, Nubee concluded
by calling us, Afro-Americans
wealthy people. Looking at our
statistics on our buying power,
and recollecting our heritage, he
is right.

A question and answer period
followed discussing financing.

A bake sale, walk-a-thon, pan-

or raffle all come to mind as
possible ways to raise money for
childrenTs programs at the
hospital.??

Sunder said the committee is
hoping to register even more
youth-centered events this year.
Last year, for example, Rocky
Mount's Cub Scout Pack 628 col-
lected $263 for the telethon in a
neighborhood canvass.

oThat was a great example of

Sunder. We think that is impor-

Nelson and Sunder, both
Greenville residents, are urging
groups to register their event as
soon as possible so air time can
be set aside on the telethon. If a
group wants to learn more about
how to hold a telethon special

Municipal Response to
the Challenge Part IV

The motel owners met without
reaching a consensus of purpose.
Two motel perators

through the local newspaper
stating that it endorsed non-
iscrimi and

were absolutely opposed to any
change of policy in regard to their
segregated practices. As of
February, 1964, the motels were
still undecided as to what to do.
At one point three motels were
teady to desegregate according
toa plan, but one withheld and at
a later date that motel voluntari-
ly permitted a desegregated din-
ner in its restaurant. This situa-
tion remains confusing. It is felt
by the Committee that a very
serious error may have been
made by us'ng an all-white sub-
committee in working with the
motels.

Two restaurants
desegregated, and three have
been isolated incidents of
Negroes eating in normally
segregated facilities. On October
10, 1963, the United States Air
Force Band rendered a concert
and stayed in motels all over the
City with its Negro members.

The same subcommittee met
with the board of directors of the
Greenville MerchantsT Associa-
tion in July, 1963, to discuss a
petition by the Progressive
Citizens' Council. As a result of
this meeting the board of direc-
lors immediately published a
resolution stating that they en-
cruraged all merchants to adopt
nondiscriminatory employment
and service practices

This subcommittee met with
the City Council in regard to the
petition by the Progressive
CitizensT Council. As a result of
this meeting, the City Council im-
mediately issued a resolution

have ,

service policies and enpowered
the Mayor to establish a Good
Neighbor Committee.

In September, 1963, the Green-
ville Ministerial Association
desegregated its membership.

¢ subcommittee met with
the city officials and county of-
ficials and accomplished the hir-
ing of Negroes and the
desegregation of city facilities
such as the hall and the cour-
troom of the Pitt County
Courthouse.

Prior to the birth of the Inter-
racial Committee, there were
desegregated facilities in the
County. Most prominent of these
were East Carolina College. the
Municipal Library, and the Coun-
ty Health Department.

The Pitt County Interracial
Committee as a whole is active-
ly engaged in a public relations
and educational venture. It is ac-
tively seeking opportunities to
speak to civic clubs, church
groups, and others. The Commit-
tee secks to commit responsible
people of the community to
responsible action. The co-
operation with this program has
been most encouraging.

East Carolina College
desegregated quietly over the
past years and now has some 60
Negroes enrolled, including a
number living in the dormitories.
The college has served as a great
public example of how
desegregation can be ac-
complished and how fruitful and
beneficial the results can be.

BILL DANSEY

Bill Dansey enters Senate race

Bill Dansey, an East Carolina
University trustee and former C!-
ty councilman, announced today
that he is filing for the North
Carolina Ninth Senatorial
District seat, currently held by
Senator Tom Taft. Dansey, Presi-

: dent of WEDCO Enterprises,

Inc., indicated he could provide
more productive leadership for
the community based on his past
service.

Dansey was quoted as saying,
Most of our needs and a lot of our
problems boil down to two basic
issues: jobs and education. I do
not feel that we have had ade-
quate leadership from our
senator in enticing better jobs in-
to the area covered by the Ninth
District which encompasses
parts of Pitt County, Martin
County and Beaufort County.?

Dansey said he would like the
opportunity to work with Gover-
nor Martin. He further com-
mented that: Since the Governor
has been in office, we have add-
ed an additional 26,000 jobs in the
state. We are currently one of the
seven states being considered for
the Super Collider, which would
not only have a great inpact on
the northeastern part of the
Raleigh metropolitan area, but
would have a carry over effect in-
to eastern North Carolina.?

Education is another of his con-
cerns. He stated that: While the
basic education plan is a step in
the right direction representing a
commitment to improve our
system, the manner in which it is
constructed is basically ill-
conceived. The dollars spent
could be better utilized by
eliminating some of the ad-
ministration cost and concen-
trating more on instilling the pro-
per values and motivation in our
students, prior to them reaching
the 5th and 6th grades, which is
considered a point of no return.
North CarolinaTs basic education
program does not address the
fact that we have a 26% illiteracy
rate. Only 13% of our students at-
tend college, and local industry
has trouble finding entry level
personnel.? Dansey indicated he
sees no way to finance the basic
program without additional
taxes, due to the annual $627
million price tag, which he does
not support.

Dansey, a 1963 graduate from
East Carolina University, is a
member of the East Carolina
Board University of Trustees,
serving on the Athletic Commit-
tee, Medical Affairs Committee,
Student Life Committee,
Development Committee and the
Beautification Committee. He
has served on the staff of three of
the last four Presidents. Dansey
was the founder of the Pitt Coun-
ty Young Republicans, was past
District Republican Chairman
and served on the Greenville Ci-
ty Council in the early 1970's.

He has also been active in the
Greenville Jaycees, receiving
their Distinguished Service
Award and a recipient of the
State Freedom Guard Award for
Outstanding Achievements in the
area of community, religious,
and governmental activities. He
also was the past President and
Chairman of the Pitt County
United Way and past President of
the Tarheel Little League.

Dansey is married to the
former Diana Nobles, from
Washington, North Carolina; and
has two children, Trey and
Courtney.

Child find
project is
underway

An effort is underway in Pitt
County to identify children and
youth ages 0 through 21 who are
handicapped and need special
education and other services.

The local efforts to identify
children and youth are part of a
concentrated effort statewide to
find children who need special
help which they are not current-
ly receiving.

Project Child Find is also an
endeavor to inform parents
and/or guardians of these
children of the services available
from their local school system
and other state and community
agencies.

Help is available for children
with special needs, according to
Lowell Harris, director of the
Department of Public Instruc-
tionTs Division for Exceptional
Children. This help is in the form
of a complete evaluation, an
education program designed
specifically for the child (in-
dividualized education program)
and a referral to other agencies
which provide special services.

Project Child Find is looking
for children and youth who have
been diagnosed or are suspected
to be mentally, physically or
emotionally handicapped and are
unable to benefit from a regular
school program without spe¢ial
assistance. °

Harris and Dr. Edwin L. West,
Jr., local superintendent::of
schools, encourage anyone who
knows a child or youth who may
be handicapped and is not:in
school or receiving special
assistance to urge the
parent/guardiay to contact any
of the following :'superintendent,
exceptional children program ad-
ministrator, principal or the
State DepartmentTs Division for
Exceptional Children. :

We need the he

children and youth who coold
benefit from special services,?
Harris added. Without this help,

some handicapped child may not
be found and the right to a free
appropriate p education. is
the right of e school-age
child.? -

Every child is
& winner

Every Child A WinnerTT is the
name of a National Program that
is funded by the National Diffu-
gion Network (NDN) and is part
-of the United State Department of
-Educations Exemplary Pro-
-gram. This physical education
program is an individualized
movement education program
providing mainstreaming and
daily success experiences for all
elementary children regardless
of mental or physical ability. The
program has been implemented
in 49 states, Canada and the
Virgin Islands. Pitt County will
be the first school system in
North Carolina to receive inser-
vice training in Every Child A
WinnerT.

In 1969, Martha Owens, a con-
cerned member of the PTA in
Ocilla, Ga., in the Irwin County
School System, wrote the Every
Child A WinnerTT will improve
fitness and motor skill while also
enhancing academics, Mrs.
Owens said. The most important
thing we do is make children feel
good about themselves.?T

Mrs. Owens said the program
design provides developmental
movement experiences for
children centered on themes of
space awareness, body
awareness, quality of body move-
ment and relationships. These
themes are taught through
creative games, creative dance
and educational gymnastics. The
project slogan Every Child A
WinnerT finds expression
through the discovery to reach
their personal potential, and win-
ning occurs as each child does his

i

or her best.
Traditional physical education
deals primarily with

manipulative and locomotor
skills such as jumping, hopping
and skipping which virtually
eliminates many physically han-
dicapped children. This program
deals with diversity and without
discrimination. Teachers are
trained to accomodate the ex-
tremely athletic as well as the
handicapped.

Cancer Society's
Dinner/Auction
will be Feb. 27

The Greene County Unit of the
American Cancer Society decid-
ed to once again sponsor a Din-
ner/Auction to help raise money
to fight cancer. The exciting
event is scheduled for February
27 at 7:00 p.m. in the Greene Cen-
tral Cafeteria. Final plans are be-
ing made and local merchants
will be contacted during January
for auction items to be auctioned
by Greene CountyTs own Ben
Rayford.

Tickets for this event are a
$10.00 donation and went on sale
January 6. Tickets can be pur-
chased from all Board Members
and from the following
businesses: in Snow Hill, Horton,
Crutchfield and Hulbert Law Of-
fice and ChildrenTs Corner; and
in Maury at Redwood Garden
Center.

The UnitTs first Dinner/Auction
was held in 1985 and netted over
$1,800.00 profit. In 1987 the second

~Dinner/Auction netted $2,759.00.
The Board hopes to have more
itmes for auction and a larger at-
tendance in 1988. The overall goal
for'the 1987-88 Crusade Campaign
is $13,200.00. This money will be
raised through special events
such as this Dinner/Auction,
Fun-Run in the spring, memorial
ogifts, cookbook sale, the annual
residential campaign in April and
Sénd a Mouse to College.
o Watch this paper for more in-
formation about the events plann-
.. ed by your Greene County Cancer
y' Society. The Board meets the
.. first Wednesday in each month at
5:30 p.m. at the Town Office,
oSnow Hill.
T All interested persons may con-

ADV. ADM. $7.00 AT DOOR $8.00 CHILDREN (Under 12) $3.00

Teeth support each other. When
one tooth is missing, it can upset
the other teeth. These teeth seem
to twist and drift out of place
because the full support is not
available. This is why it is so im-
portant to replace missing teeth
in your mouth even is it may not
be obvious to your appearance,

Teeth are usually replaced in

three different ways, each usual-
ly depending on the patiencesT
preference, the number of teeth
that are missing, and the condi-
tion of the remaining teeth. These
replacements are dentures, par-
tial dentures, and fixed bridges.
Implants (surgical placement of
teeth in the mouth) are also
becoming very popular in replac-
ing missing teeth. Dentures are
recommended when a person has
lost: all of his/her natural teeth.
Even though dentures replace all
teeth, donTt ignore your regular
dental visits just, because. cg eee i
donTt have any natural teeth 4
gum: :tissue under the denture
changes as the person ages.
These changes can result in a
poor fitting denture causing sore
spots if the denture is not
adjusted.

A partial denture can replace
as few as | tooth and as many as
27 teeth. This appliance can be
removed from the mouth by the
patient. You may find it
necessary to remove it after
eating to rinse your mouth of food
particles. A fixed bridge on the
other hand is not removeable by
the: patient. It is connected 1-4
teeth in one specific area. This is
a rather expensive procedure but
by.far the most practical if your
remaining teeth will support a
fixed bridge.

Keep in mind that all of your
teeth serve a purpose. If you have
any that are missing, consider
one of these options to replace it.
Not only will replacing missing
teeth keep your smile beautiful,
it-will also keep the rest of your
teeth in the spaces where they
belong!

Teenage pregnancy has
become a major social problem
in our country. Four in ten teens

there were 75 teenage pregnan-

births to teens. In Pitt County
(1985), there were 388 pregnan-

Project PARENTING, an
adolescent parent support pro-
gram in Pitt County, is
establishing a Mentor Program.
Volunteers from the community
will be paired one-on-one with an
adolescent parent, These men-
tors wil serve as role models,
facilitators, and friends to these
teen mothers. The role of the
volunteer is somewhere between
that of a surrogate parent and a
big brother/big sister.

Volunteers will be trained prior
to being assigned to teen mother.
Project PARENTING staff will
provide support and guidance to
the mentor throughout the pro-
gram. Volunteers will be ex-
pected to give at least two hours
of their time each week.

A brief orientation meeting will

be held on the dates listed below.
An overview of the program will
be given during this meeting. In-
terested individuals will be given
the opportunity to sign up to
serve as mentors. Attending the
orientation does not obligate
anyone to become a volunteer.
We welcome any additional input
from community individuals on
organizing the mentor program.

Letter to
the Editor

A little bit of thoughtfulness
and applying the Golden Rule?T
is always an asset, especially
with those in leadership positions,
such as chairpersons and pro-
gram leaders.

Please consult the person you
want to speak for your organiza-
tions or auxiliaries and get his ap-
proval before you place his name
on the program. For this name to
there unawareT shows poor
planning and taking control or ex-
erting oneTs authority. This pro-
cedure tells the public that the
guest is either negligent or is over
commmitted.

No one should commit himself
to a task before checking his
schedule. On the spur of the mo-
mentT action, many times,
results in a conflict, which is
damaging to the program or to
the personTs self-esteem. By
simply applying the Golden Rule,
do unto others as youTd have
others do unto you? makes life
pleasant, avoiding conflict.
