NC SCLC on the
move"both
local & statewide

The president of the NC State
and Pitt County Branch of the
Southern Christian Leadership
Conference called a meeting
Saturday, June 18, of all local
chapters in the state to discuss
issues of interest that concern
each of us in some way or another
as Black people. The meeting
was held in Raleigh at the Com-
fort Inn Motel.

The meeting opened with
prayer by president, Bennie
Roundtree, followed by an in-
troduction from each person at-
tending. Then he asked for a pro-
gress report from each attending
Chapter concerning their plans to
help future goals become a
reality.

Persons from Trenton explain-
ed that they had been concerned
about roads and highways. .
that this goal had been ac-
complished and now they are
working with some employment
problems to improve human
dignity. They talked at length
about their concerns, about these
matters, and what could be done
to accomplish their goal.

The Charlotte Chapter explain-
ed that their concern was

Ineligible Votes Cast In Garrett-Dupree Race
Irregularity Found In Pitt Commissioner Voting

By JOHN BARE
Reflector Staff Writer
Records from the Pitt County Board of Elections show 22 Republican and
unaffiliated voters were allowed to vote in the May 31 Democratic primary
runoff for a seat on the Pitt County Board of Commissioners from Con-
solidated District A.
After a June 21 county board hearing to hear complaints of election ir-
- regularities, the elections board checked the race, sex and party of the voters
in the primary runoff and found that 18 Republicans and four unaffiliated
~voters voted in the Garrett-Dupree race.
Only registered Democrats were eligible to vote.
D.D. Garrett of Greenville defeated James H. Dupree of Bethel by two votes
" 1,171 to 1,169 " but after a recount and a hearing by the county election
board neither candidate has been certified as the winner.

The county board ruled that election irregularities cited by Dupree were
significant enough to affect the outcome of the election, and it sent the findings
to the state board for action. Garrett appealed the decision, and the state
board is scheduled to hear the case Friday at a meeting in Raleigh.

The county boardTs. information check does not indicate whether people
voted for Garrett or Dupree, but an attorney involved says the irregularity is
probably glaring enough for the state board to order a new election. Neither
candidate has filed a formal comp/aint regarding the error, but the state

board may address the issue Friday.

GarrettTs attorney, David F. Kirby of Raleigh, said he did not think the
previous complaints filed by Dupree were significant enough to affect the out-
come of the race, but the new finding that ineligible voters participated is

significant.

Taft being considered for
committee chairmanship

Senator Tom Taft, D-Pitt, is be-
ing considered for one of the two
top Senate appropriation com-
mittee chairmanships according
to a NEWS AND OBSERVER ar-
ticle which appeared last week.
The Lieutenant Governor serves
as the President of the Senate and
makes committee appointments.
Senator Tony Rand, D-
Cumberland, who is running for
the StateTs No. 2 post, has said he
is conidering Taft to chair either
the Base Budge Committee or the
Expansion Budget Committee.

~~T knew that he has been con-
sidering me for one of the top ap-
propriation positions,TT said Taft,
who declined to comment on his
discussion with Rand.

oItTs the most exciting thing to
happen since ITve been in the
Legislature because it means I
would have a remarkable oppor-
tunity to help my district and the
State.�

o~TTm honored to even be con-
sidered and pleased for my
district. I donTt think there has
ever been a top appropriations
committee chairman from Pitt
County in modern times.�

Taft announced support for
RandTs bid for Lieutenant Gover-
nor early in the primary and feels
that the prospects of having a
Senator from Eastern North
Carolina chair a top appropria-
tions committee should en-
courage area voters to support
Senator Rand for the Lieutenant
Governor position.

Senator Taft is running agains
Bill Dansey of Greenville in his
bid for re-election. For Taft to
land one off the committee chair-
manships, he must retain his
Senate seat and Rand must
defeat Republican Jim Gardner
in the race for Lieutenant
Governor.

oThe two positions are clearly
the most important positions of
power and influence in the
Senate, more important than the
President pro tem or the Chair-
man of Finance,�T said Taft. Taft
who is 42 and running for re-
election to his third term as
Senator in the 9th Senatorial
District, which includes Pitt,
Beaufort and Martin Counties,
would be the first Senator to chair
either of the top co.nmittees so

; Having a number of people vote who were ineligible to vote is a problem,�
e said.

The state board has already ordered new elections this year in Hyde County
and Surry County in close races where Republicans and unaffiliated voters
participated in the Democratic primaries, said Johnnie McLean, ad-
ministrative secretary for the state board.

She said news of ineligible voters o~probably is a good signT�T there will be a
new election in Pitt County.

About 18 percent of the blacks eligible to vote in the primary runoff par-
ticipated, while about 42 percent of the eligible white voters turned out. Kirby
predicted black turnout would increase dramatically if there is a new election
and that Garrett would win easily.

On November 20, 1981, Sally M.
Holloman went to prison for the
murders of her husband and a
Selma businessman. On Friday,
June 24, Ms. Holloman graduated
summa cum laude from Shaw
University in Raleigh.

Ms. Holloman, serving two con-
current life sentences, was one of
three inmates who recieved
bachelorTs degrees in behavorial
science through a program at the

oNC Correctional Center for

Women. Six other women earned
associate of arts degrees.

oAt one time in my life, I
thought that life was really
negative,�T Ms. Holloman, 44, said
in an interview. ~I honestly
thought there was no hope,
especially for someone in this en-
vironment,�T

oNow ITve come to realize that
with an education, I can set goals
and do what I want in life,�T said
Ms, Holloman, who earned a 3.9
grade point average and several
awards.

The graduation ceremony
marked the first time that state
inmates have earned four-year

¥

degrees within prison walls.
Along with Ms. Holloman, Dean
T. Darroch and Barbara J.
Williams received bachelorTs
degrees. Sherry K. Bright,
Cecelia W. Gray, Susan P. Laws,
Amanda Penley and Gwendolyn
F, Wharton received two-year
associate degrees.

In a ceremony at the correc-
tional center attended by about 60
people, mostly from the prison
and university, the inmates were
praised for their dedication.

ShawTs president, Talbert 0.
Shaw, told the graduates that
their experience was like a long
road with curves, bumps and
hills.

oThe circumstances that
brought you to this institution
were curves, or breaks in the
equipment,� Shaw said. ~~Today,
you are saying to the world that
you are repairing that equip-
ment,�

The degrees were awarded
through the Center for Alter-

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

A blood pressure reading
greater than 140/90 is considered
a major risk factor for Coronary
Heart Disease (CHD). About one
of every four Americans has
elevated blood pressure for CHD.
High blood pressure is believed to
contribute to CHD by damaging
the walls of the arteries, making
them susceptible to plaque
formation.

There are other uncontrollable
risk facors for CHD. These are:
1) Aging . . . Older people are
more likely to have CHD than
younger people. 2) Male Sex...
Men are at greater risk for CHD
than women. 3) Family History .
.. Having relatives who have or
have dried of CHD increases risk.

ARhough we ~canTt reduce our

From-+ The KelloggTs Company,
1988

CIRRHOSIS is scarring of the
liver that usually results from
alcohol abuse or chronic viral in-
fections. It is the ninth leading
cause of death among US adults,
killing about 20,000 people an-
nually. Until now, doctors
treating cirrhosis have been able
to do little except encourage pa-
tients to stop drinking.

DonTt forget to buckle up!

One of the biggest threats to
your heart is right under your
nose.

REDUCING BREAST CANCER
RISK

Women who eat a typical
American diet high in meat and
low in fiber may increase their
risk of breast cancer by raising
the level of estrogen in their
bodies.

Breast cancer is by far the
most common form of malignan-
cy among US women. It causes
an estimated 37,000 deaths an-
nually. In the US, the incidence of
breast cancer is 20 percent to 40
percent lower among vegetarians
than among women generally.

COLOR YOUR LIFE

The color of your clothing says
everything about your personali-
ty. In fact, by wearing certain
colors you can exert powerful in-
fluences on others, ladies:

RED indicates you are a real
go-getter with self-confidence to
spare. YouTre highly competitive
and goal-oriented. Wear this col-
or to give off that feeling.

YELLOW gets others to think
you are independent, optimistic
and enjoy companionship.

GREEN is somewhat tricky. It
sends out a dual message. It tells
others that you are law-abiding,
follow rules and regulations. It
also convinces others that you
are critical in your thinking. But
be careful: It makes others feel
you are slightly arrogant.

BLUE, on the other hand,
creates a more down-to-earth im-
pression. Wear this color and

THE MENOPAUSAL MAN

Symptoms of ~**male
menopauseT: nervousness,
decrease or loss of sexual poten-
tial, depressions, decreased
money and _ concentration,
decreased or absent libido,
fatigue, sleep disturbances, ir-
ritability, loss of interest and self-
confidence, indecisiveness,
numbness and tingling, fear of
impending danger, excitability,
less often, headaches, vertigo,
tachycardia, constipation, cry-
ing, hot flashes, chilly sensations,
itching, sweating, cold hands and
feet.

Do men have monthly cycles
like women? According to the en-
docrinologist Dr. Estelle Ramey,
professor at Georgetown Univer-
sity Medical School, ~Men do
have monthly cycles. The
evidence of them may be less
dramatic, but the monthly
changes are no less real.TT

All living things " humans,
plants and animals " have time
cycles. In humans they are
biologically represented in a
metabolic process that is our
rhythmic nature, which is cyclic.
By Rosetta Reitz, New Woman

The first thing to know about
hot flashes is that they are
harmless. They pass quickly and
are nothing to be afraid of. Usual-
ly they last from 15 seconds to a
minute, sometimes up to two
minutes. They vary as much as
in size, shape and intensity as
women do. Just as no one can
describe a ~~typicalTT menopausal
woman, so, too, there is no such
thing as a ~~typicalT�T hot flash.

The term ~~male menopauseTT
has come into recent usage, in
spite of the laughs it gets.
However, the word o~menopauseTT
is indeed applicable to men just
as it is to women. Men go through
menopauses, even though they
donTt menstruate, for it is more
the combination of lifeTs cir-
cumstances that occur around
the age of 50, sometimes beginn-
ing as early as 40 for some, that
creates the condition labeled

DINNER TABLE
TOGETHERNESS

To improve family com.
munication, revive the dinner
hour as a ritual in your home,
suggests a San _ Diego
psychologist. To make family
mealtime a positive experience,
Gary Lawson, PhD of US Inter.
national University suggests:

1) Eliminate distractions (turn
off the television,, unplug the
telephone).

2) Avoid unpleasant business,
such as doling out punishments or
discussing bad grades. 3) En-
courage children to speak up and
participate.

4) Without being totally inflex-
ible, try to stick with a designted
dinnertime.

Ineligible Votes Cast

(Contiuned from page 1)

Still, Kirby said he felt most of the ineligible voters were Dupree supporters,
and he will ask the state board to certify Garrett the winner.

Records show nine Republicans and one unaffiliated voter were allowed to
vote in the Carolina precinct, four Republicans and one unaffiliated voter
were allowed to vote in Bethel, one Republican and two unaffiliated voters
were allowed to vote in Greenville No. 1, two Republicans were allowed to vote
in Greenville No. 3 and one Republican voted in Belvoir and in Greenville No.

2.

Of the Republicans who voted, 16 are white, one is black and oneTs race is
listed as ~~other.� Of the four unaffiliated voters that voted, one is white and
three are black.

Dupree carried Carolina, Bethel and Belvior by large margins, and Garrett
handily carried Greenville precincts No. 1, 3 and 5.

Hopetuy we'll address it Friday. WHat effect this is going to have on the
outcome? This I donTt know,� Garrett said. ~We'll point out the election did
go down racial lines. It stands to reason those folks did vote for Mr. Dupree;
proving it is the big job. If the Republicans did (vote for Dupree), that would
just increase our margin.�

DupreeTs attorney, James A. Nelson Jr. of Greenville, has asked for a new
election since the recount, and he said the state board may order a new elec-
tion because of the ineligible voters.

oThe state board could always skip all the hoopla in this race and say,
~We're not going to give Mr. Dupree a new election based on his complaints,
but we're going to give him a new election based on Republicans voting in the
primary,� Nelson said.

*TTm sure it has happened before, but it has not been a number to this extent
that I know of,� said elections Supervisor Margaret Hardee of Greenville.

oIf one or two (Republicans or unaffiliated voters) voted and the vote dif-
ference was bigger, it wouldnTt matter,� Mrs. Hardee said. oIt would not have
been a sufficient number to cast doubt, and the board would have made a

judicial notice of it, but no action would have been needed " unless there wag.

more involved than carelessness.�

Garrett has complained that the county commissioner race has
~highly racial,� but Mrs. Hardee said the error that allowed people other than
registered Democrats to vote was probably an inadvertant mistake caused by
carelessness by precinct workers.

Voters are supposed to state their name, address and party when they enter
the polling site, she said, but when voters know precinct workers personally,
they sometimes do not follow procedure.

oSomebody didnTt do their work at the polls; itTs as simple as that,� Kirby
said. oItTs very clear Republicans were not eligible to vote.�

Sally Glisson of Stokes, registrar for the Carolina precinct, said as far as she
knew no one other than registered Democrats voted in her precinct in the May
31 primary runoff.

The error also occurred in another race. A statewide Democratic primary
runoff for a seat on the N.C. Court of Appeals was also on the ballot May 31,
and 11 Republicans outside of Consolidated District A were allowed to vote in
the race, but the margin was too great to affect the election.

centered around education. They
had worked hard with the school
to broaden the scope of education
and get a better understanding as
to what the teachers expected
from the students so that the
parents could be in a better posi-
tion to understand and help their
children with home assignments.
They said that our children need
to be more serious about their
school work so that they can bet-
ter understand how to pass
various tests. They were en-
couraged to believe they had
achieved their goal and helped to
develop a very good wholesome
parent-teacher and student
relationship.

The president of the Pitt Coun-
ty Chapter discussed a mult-
interest, such as concerns about
school districts, education,
voting, crimes, drugs, etc. He ex-
plained that these things were not
the concern in the Pitt County
area, but throughout the state.
oWe need to be aware of these
problems and prepare ourselves
to do all we can to help get such,
out of our community.� He talk-
ed about starting a membership
drive throughout the state, to call
a news conference to advertise
the project. We decided to let the
committee set up goals and plans
to initiate the drive. Then each
chapter could follow through of
planned procedure. Another ma-
jor concern was planning the NC
State Convention for the upcom-
ing year. Representatives from
the Trenton Chapter volunteered
to host the State Convention next
year.

The final major interest was
the discussion of the National
Convention which will be held in
Washington, DC, August 23-27.
This includes a March on the
Capitol in memory of the death of
Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Plans and arrangements for a
bus are being made for all in-
terested persons to attend this
convention.

Everyone is urged to sacrifice
and go to this convention+ male
and female, young and old, white
and black. More information will
be issued at a later date, or con-
tact the office of the Pitt County
Branch of the SCLC"758-1785.
Our NC State meeing was highly
successful and we are looking for-
ward to a more successful con-
vention in the future.

Ms. Alberta Dixon Younger
was killed while a passenger ina
1976 Chevrolet operated by Ethel
Younger Dixon on May 17, 1985.
Ms. Dixon was traveling South on
NC 11 and attempted to make a
left turn onto RP 1108, an in-
tersection near Ayden Grifton
High School. The car in which
Ms. Younger was riding was
struck by a town bucket truck
which was heading North on NC
11 and was operated by Martin
Lee Fox. The bucket truck collid-
ed with the pasenger side of the
Dixon vehicle. Persinger, who
was Mayor of Ayden for twenty
years, said the suit was filed even
though Ms. Dixon was cited by
the NC Highway Patrol for a
motor vehicle violation. He also
state that Taft had assured a
town official not to be concerned
because .. . o~insurance would
take care of them.�

oThis is the type of lawsuitTT
Persigner said ~~that has caused
municipal liablity insurance
rates to increase so much. Pers-
inger added that a state Senator
should be helping to control in-
surance costs and not encourag-
ing lawsuits of this type.

there was a clear conflict of in-

oWhen a state senator files suit

of a state senatorTs control over

pressure on town officials to set-

Pitt Community College to offer
medical sonography program

Pitt Community College Presi-
dent, Dr. Charles Russell, an-
nounced this week that the col-
lege will begin offering an
Associate in Science degree pro-
gram in Diagnostic Medical
Sonography this Fall. PCC will be
the third college in the state to of-
fer the program. Graduates of
the two year sonography pro-
gram will qualifyto work in
various health care facilities with
medical ultrasound equipment.

Medical Sonography will be a
division of the PCC Radiologic
Technology Department accor-
ding to Garrie Moore, depart-
ment chairman. Moore said that
the clinical instruction for the
program will be taught primari-
ly at Pitt County Memorial
Hospital and the East Carolina
University School of Medicine as
well as surrounding area
hospitals.

Jessica Davis, BSRT, RDMS
will be the Sonography Program
Coordinator and Lyn Jacobson,
RT, RDMS will serve as the

Clinical Coordinator for the

program.
Ms. Davis explained the.

primary functions of medical
sonography as follows:

oSonographers specialize in
the application of high frequency
sound waves to image internal
body structures. Our students
will learn ultrasound techniques
for the OB-GYN patient, ab-
domen, and echocardiography.
Most young females who have
had children in the past few years
are familiar with the use of ultra-
sound to monitor the growth and
development of the baby, but
most people are not familiar with
the numerous other ultrasound
procedures that physicians re-
quest as a part of the diagnostic
process,� Ms. Davis said.

oOur graduates of this pro-
gram will be qualified to work in
hospitals, clinics, and in physi-
ciansT offices with ultrasound
equipment. This is a new, but
growing career with excellent
salary opportunities,� she added.

Mr. Atlanta: An

. As cheerleader for
othe city, heTs forged
an unprecedented
alliance between

black voters
and white money

By Art Harris
The Washington Post
ATLANTA
N THE EVE of the DemocratsT

invasion, Mayor Andrew
Young, 56, sits cool as the
sweet iced tea heTs ordered
to wash down his plate of
fried chicken, salad, turnip
greens and corn bread at
PaschalTs.

ItTs lunchtime in DixieTs

boom town, so how about a little dessert?

Joo Cullipher

oWe got some deee-licious homemade peach cob-
bler, dahlin,T� coos Orah Bell Sherman, hostess for
25 years at the historic motel-restaurant that once
served free chicken to civil rights demonstrators fresh
from jail. That was long ago, before they grew up to
prosper as power brokers like Andy Young and could
afford to pay.

oYou have any low-calorie ice cream to go with
that?� he winks. ~Good Lord will bless you for it.�
Then he sighs, fishing for absolution as he pats his
natty dark gray suit, blue shirt and silk tie. oNow you
know why ITve got a weight problem.�

oNo! You look wonderful!� says Sherman. Recall-
ing a sermon the minister-mayor delivered at her
church, she adds, oPeople are still talking about it.
You said it so sweet . . . about your problem with
your wife...�

oJean,� laughs the mayor, osqueezes the tooth-
paste in the middle, and I like to roll it up from the
bottom. Now we got the pump, our marriage is saved.�

Heading into his eighth and last year as two-term
mayor (law forbids a third) with his eye on a run for
governor (an office no black has ever held), Young
still dives head first into controversy. Just like poli-
tics, he says, o~itTs the little things that cause tensions
in a Marriage.�

So go the o~little things� nettling the countdown to
Convention T88, as city work crews scrape pigeon
droppings from prominent statues, hang banners and
scurry outside the Omni Hotel to finish paving. And
party officials and PR barons fret about room counts,

caterers, protesters, nightmare traffic " how the city
will come off to 15,000 reporters at the first political
convention ever held here.

Only YoungTs not sweating. oPeople have been get-

Nor is he sweating over a midnight Jesse Jackson blowup over Michael DukakisT choice of a running

mate, or party disarray. The nominee, he insisted in
the days before Sen. Lloyd Bentsen (D-Texas) was
chosen, earned the right to pick his own copilot.

Young was among the few national black leaders
who resisted jumping on the Jackson bandwagon. It
was a coolness, sources say, dating back two decades,
to the hours after Martin Luther King Jr. was mur-
dered in Memphis " when some believed Jackson
was exaggerating his personal ties to King. Young,
who was a top King lieutenant, now says, oEverybody
was upset and acting a little crazy in those days.� And
he waxes upbeat about Jackson.

oYou gotta give Jesse credit for keeping the party
together up to now,� he says. oYou havenTt heard any
talk of a ~third partyT since JesseTs candidacy. All the
dissident elements on the partyTs liberal side have
rallied behind him and heTs kept them in the party,
like he did in T84; and in T86, he kept them behind
some good Senate candidates.�

But their split over the best strategy for black
America remains. Jackson touts a unified black vote
behind him as the ticket for change. Young believes
itTs crucial that black support be divided among all
candidates, Bush included, so blacks won't be locked
out olike under Reagan,� if the Republican wins.

oBefore his campaign started, I said, ~Jesse, we
donTt have any disagreements on the issues, but I
donTt think itTs wise for everybody black to be in the

same camp. I want to see to it that the same issues
you are raising in the Democratic Party get raised by
other candidates as well. You might be ps presi-
dent, but thereTs just as much poasibility that some-
body else is.going to be president.T

oI thought it important we never find ourselves as
a people in the position we found ourselves in under
Reagan, where nobody black, nobody Hispanic, no-
body Asian and not many Jewish people, either, had
any input into the process.�

How did Jackson respond? ~~He said, ~I guess you
see yourself as a sort of a roving linebacker pluggi
the holes on defense?T And I Said, ~ThatTs a good [anal-
ogy], Jesse, and I donTt have any problem seeing you
as the quarterback on the offense.T �



Andy Young remains a yirtual Dial-a-Quote of
candor on a host of national and international topics.
As AtlantaTs second black mayor, heTs played cheer-
leader for a superheated local economy, forging an
unprecedented alliance between black voters and
white money and capitalizing on his own celebrity to
herald AtlantaTs arrival as the third fastest-growing
metropolitan area in the United States. oItTs been
fun,� he says of his years as mayor.

Young is notT:ing if not a salesman, a dreamer who
draws raves from the white business establishment
for his vision «1.d fewer hurrahs for his yawns over
details of government. Defending his sojourns abroad
severr] years bcu:k, he dared anyone to show him a
pothcie that required filling and said, oI'll fill it my-
self, There are sc few of them that I can make the

promise.�

~ Astounded w 1en 70 phone calls flooded City Hall
switchboards, hi: donned blue overalls aid a hard hat
to pitch gravel into holes for the camerss and make
good his promise to take care of the odetails� of gov-
ernment.

It was a public relations cou:., and Young kept
right on travelirg, a mayor with a foreign policy and a
yen for foreign lands.

oWhat we've been trying to do is not just sell At-
lanta as a place to invest, but as a gateway for the
hing World to come and purchase American goods,�

e Says.

HE SORT of vast Dixie Casbah
that he conjures has yet to
emerge. Yet, Chamber of Com-
merce figures show $52 billion
in outside capital either invest-
ed (or planned) in the 18-county
metro area over the last five
years ot YoungTs tenure.

But the question remains:
Like Dukakis ard the ~(Massachusetts Miracle,� how
much credit shuld Young get for the boom? How
many jobs did lis trips bring in?

oThatTs hard to say,� he shrugs, buttering a roll
as he praises uinmy Carter ofor opeving an office
in Jayen� as givernor and former governor George
Bush, owho still travels with me even though
heTs out of office. I wouldnTt dare claim all the
credit.�

On the Floor"A Sander

Thaddeus E. Owens Jr. is an ex-
| tremely unorthodox delegate to the
Democratic National Convention for
at least two reasons.

One, he is not sure heTs comfortable
playing the political game. oMost of
it,� he says, ois B.S.�

Two, heTs trying to collect unem-
ployment compensation while learn-
ing a new trade"as a floor sander and
finisher. His application is tied up in
paperwork.

He was fired"ojust miscommunica-
tions,� he says"from his job as a com-
munity organizer for the Crown
Heights Neighborhood Improvement
Association on April 12, a week before
his election as one of 95 state dele-
gates committed to Jesse Jackson.

Not only did he win, he received
25,938 votes, the most for any candi-
date on any Jackson slate in New
York State.

oT can explain that,� he says. oI
think people confused me with Major
Owens.�

ioe Major Owens, no relation, is

the highly visible three-term Demo-
cratic congressman from the same
central Brooklyn election district in
which Thad Owens ran so well.)

Actually, Owens, 43, went into the

ens, who was expelled from one coi-
lege and who dropped out of another
before trying a variety of jobs that he
found unsatisfactory for various rea-
sons.

His resume would fill a couple of

primary with three useful but}
untested assets.

One, he had been active in
perma affairs for several

especially in housing.
Two, his father is a state Su«.
preme Court justice in Brook-
lyn.

And three, perhaps most
important, his name was
No. 5 on the first of five com-
peting Jackson slates in the
district. oYou know,� Owens
says, ~people usually just
vote for the first five names
they see. They donTt do a lot
of hunting around.�

It also includes expulsion from

Later, after he dropped out of Pace,
he tried several jobs briefly, from IBM

Jewish camps. He even spent a few
months with a management company

DELEGATE'S DIARY

oThe changes in my life I made for
myself, not because somebody else
wanted it,� he says. oItTs like changing
underwear. You donTt change it for
other people. You change it for your-
self.�

An impulse, inspired by a commit-
ment to what Jackson was saying
about drugs, housing, crime and edu-
cation, got Owens into politics.

He didnTt know what to do, so he
called Major OwensT office and some-
body there told him where to file an
application. About three weeks later,
the state Democratic Committee told
him that he qualified as one of 24 can-
didates for Jackson in the district.

Even as a candidate, Owens says he
steers clear of conventional politics.
~ITm not a politician,� he says over
and over. oITm a community advocate
who has to deal with politicians.�

He made only one formal campaign
speech-"at a candidatesT night where,
he remembers, voters almost were
outnumbered by candidates.

oWe were supposed to introduce
ourselves and say why we wanted to
represent Jesse,� says Owens. oAll I

said when I got up was, ~1 want to aa-
dress the issue of housing, and I think

MONICA AT ¢ ZIDA DAILY NEWS

I have a talent for rallying people.

He felt confident about his chances,
because of his place on the slate. oEv-
erybody told me I was in,� he says,
oand I believed them.�

Since the primary, Owens has at-
tended one fund-raiser, to help pay
his expenses in Atlanta. He figures he
raised ~a couple hundred� dollars,
with promises of oa couple hundred�
more. He needs all the help he can
get"he is paying all his own ex-
penses.

Pin Tem down

The convention parties heTs invited
to are fine, says Owens, but he plans
to talk up his No. 1 issue. oI hope to
get the housing issue across,� he says,
oeven if ITve got to pin people down to
say what I want to say.�

And after the convention?

oI'm sticking with M.L. Mastercrafts
(a Brooklyn floor sanding and finish-
ing company),TT Owens says. oTm
training to become a partner.�

As for politics, Owens isnTt saying. A
friend thinks he is hooked on politics
and may even challenge state Assem-
blyman Clarence Norman (D-Crown
Heights) when Norman comes up for
reelection.

oWell, ITm always trying to learn
new things that I can build on,� Ow-
ens says, oand believe me, this last
year was a real learning experience.T
