Post Editor
As the November elections
draw near, rallies for North
Carolina's black voters are be
ing designed to inform the black
electorate about the presence of
the state's black candidates, the
need for black community unt
ty. and the practice of ticket

In this statement, Peter Grear,
chairman of the North Carolina
Black Leadership Caucus
(NCBI), lays the foundation of a
new black agenda he will pro

need to vote," she says.
oThere will be voter registra
tion, voter education and get out
to vote reminders during the ral
ly," says Grear. But, he promises,
underlining the political pep
talks will be the hard-driven
theme of building a black sup
port base in the state
"The rally will be specifically
geared to our support base,? says
Grear. oBlack people need to
come together to reaffirm our
committment to black candi
dates."
Grear, who has said that
blacks should not vote for a can
didate Just because that candi
date is black, pushes the idea of
having a rally to showcase only
black candidates. But he denies
the assumption that this is a
contradiction
The parading of the black can
didates before the participants
of the rallies,
Says Grear, is
the means of
"black people

will not be a forum for endors-
Ing candidates. It will, however,
be a means through which the
N.C. black electorate will learn
how many black candidates are
running for office, what they are
running for, and who they are.
The spotlight will only be on
N.C.Ts black candidates. "This
will not be the appropriate time
for other candidates to make
their pitch to black voters,? says
Grear.
In keeping with {ts non-
partisan stance, the rally will
not support either party's candi-
dates. On the contrary, Grear
hopes to get across to the black
participants the idea of using
licket-splitting for the benefit of
the black community.
If the rally accomplishes this
purpose, says Grear, "ticket-
splitting will not only be coming
from the white community come
November. We're strongly urg-
Ing the practice among the black
voters.
oThe black agenda has to
transcend party. We must be pre-
pared to support candidates re-
gardless of who's pocket they're

Correction
The September 21, 1988
edition of The ~o~M?T Voice
contained a front page ar-
ticle entitled Is Sheriff
Tyson Senile? This article
contained several false
statements which should be
corrected
The article indicated that
the female involved was
employed atthe time ofthe
incident by the Pitt County
Sheriff's Department, that
Sheriff Tyson witnessed the
event, and that the female
victim was fired from the
sheriff's department for
trying to obtain a warrant
against the personrespon- |
sibleforthedamage.These_ |
allegations against Sheriff
Tyson and the Pitt County
SheriffTs Department are
absolutely false and with-
out basis.
The facts are that (1) the
female involved was not
employed by the sheriffTs
department at the time of
the incident, (2) Sheriff
Tyson did not witness or
have any knowledge of the
damage as he was in his
office when the damage
occurred, and (3) the fe-
male was not terminated
for seeking a warrant as
she was not employed by
the Department.
Sheriff Tyson has the re-
sponsibility and duty to
investigate alleged im-
proper activities involving
county-owned vehicles and
on-duty sheriff's employ-
ees. He would certainly
take proper action to ar-
rest any person committing
a crime in his presence.
Sheriff Tyson would not
terminate an employee for
seeking warrants against
criminals who had dam-
aged personal property.

NC Board of Elections: Runoff
primaries may discriminate
CHARLOTTE (AP) -- In a mul-
ing that paves the way for the
president of the state NAACP to
Challenge primary runoffs in court,
The N.C. Board of Elections has
ruled that the runoffs may discrim-
inate against blacks, while stop-
ping short of declaring them
unconstitutional.
"We agree that operation of the
second primary has some adverse
effects," state elections board
Chairman Robert Hunter said
Thursday at a hearing in Charlotte.
oAlthough we may disagree with
a particular law or like a particular
law ... we don't have the authority
to declare a statute unconstitution-
al," Hunter said.
State NAACP President Kelly
Alexander is the first person to
formally challenge the 73-year-old
second primary law in North Car-
Olina, long criticized as hurting the
cuances Of black candidates.
oEither politically or judicially,
this is going to be settled in the
next few years," said elections
supervisor Bill Culp. "The runoff
primary is seen more and more as
an anachronism, (part of) the
Reconstruction South."
Under the law, if no candidate
wins a majority in a primary, the
top two finishers proceed to a
runoff. Nine other Southern states
have similar laws.
Alexander, who is black, led the
May 3 Democratic primary for
Mecklenburg County register of
deeds, but lost a runoff to Judy
Gibson, who is white.
The board also handed a partial
victory to Ms. Gibson, declaring
her the Democratic nominee in the
Nov. 8 race for register of deeds.
Alexander had asked that Ms. Gib-
son's Certification be withheld.
"She's certified and can mun, and
that's what we wanted,? said Gib-
son's attomey, Ray Farris.
Alexander wouldn't say whether
he would appeal the state board's
ruling Or file a lawsuit in the case.
He said he would wait to see the
State board's written opinion,
expected as early as next week.
oWe're going to wait and read
what the actual order says," said
Alexander, who worried that board
members may back down from
their stance Thursday.

tional diet route and also turned
to surgery to help him shed the
excess weight. oItTs been an uphil
struggle for me all the way,
said in an interview from hs
home outside of Albany, Ga. On
March 5, 1975, weighing in at 602
pounds, he had an intestinal by-
pass operation. It was successful
"for a while. By 1979, he was
down to a lean 149 pounds. oBut in
less than a yearTs time, I was back
up to 502 pounds,? he recalled.
Determined to shed the girth
from his 6/2? frame, Smith
checked into a Pensacola, Fla.,
hospital in 1981 and had his stom-
ach stapled. From 1981-to-1982,
he dropped from 502 to 325
pounds. The weight loss was
steady until the staples came
loose in 1988 and from then until
1987, he ballooned to 885 pounds,
an all-time high.
After reading about GregoryTs
suecessful diet formula in JET,
Smith said he asked his brother
Bobb, who knows Gregory, to
contact the self-taught nutrition
expert on his behalf
oY ~ already lost 154 pounds on
Mr. Gregory's formula,? he said
with a sense of accomplishment.
Gregory, too, is optimistic. oI
have no doubt I'll be able to help
him. The secret is that he'll be
helping himself? Gregory told Jet
in an Interview. Gregory said he
is ready to spend 13 months and
$300,000 to help Smith get back in
shape. Once Smith is on a strict
diet regimen and becomes ac-
customed to moderate exercise,
Gregory promised, oHe'll get bet
ter and better. I know this system
works.?

Helping students to govern
their own behavior in ways that
help them learn is a long-
standing goal of all teahcers.
There are a number of ways in
which a teacher can promote
good discipline in the classroom.
Be friendly. Be the kind of per-
son children like and trust; be
firm, fair, friendly, courteous, en-
thusiastic, confident; keep your
sense of humor.
Keep your classroom orderly.
Maintain a cheerful and attrac-
tive classroom rather than a
disorderly one which might en-
courage disruptive behavior.
Get to know your students. You
will soon develop almost a sixth
sense for anticipating trouble
before it begins, and donTt act as
though you expect trouble or you
will almost certainly encounter

win the respect of your students
and cut down on the potential stu-
- dent grievances: - Do be consis-

HOW TO MOTIVATE YOUR
CLASS
lo motivate is to stimulate an
active and positive interest in
something. A major challenge for
teachers is to motivate their
students toward educational
achievement. Following are
some tips to faciliate the motiva-
tion of students to learn.
Show enthusiasm for your sub-
ject - be an expert, be emotional.
Present subject matter in a
positive way - first impressions
are important. Encourage stu-
dent involvement and interac-
tion, ¢.g., simultaions, games.
Vary presentation and content of
material to maintain high in-
terest level - be flexible, be spon-
taneous. Use current technology
such as computers adn television
whenever possible and as ap-
propriate for the lesson.
Acknowledge and reward student
learning efforts - be consistent
and generous. Plan activities and
assignments that allow students
to be creative and encourage
reasoning skills. Relat subject
matter to studentsT interests and
daily activities. Provide regular
assessment of studentsT pro-
grams and mastery - use con-
structive criticism. Create an
organized and stimulating
classroom environment that en-
courages learning. Share humor
- it releives tensions and involves
students emotionally and
positively. Keep students in mo-
tion both mentally and physical-
ly - active and sedentary
activities.
These tips are based on motiva-
tional materials written for NEA
by Raymond J. Wlodkowski. See

Pitt County voters will
choose County Commissioner
On Tuesday, October 11, 1988
Pitt County voters in Districts I
and II will pick D.D. Garrett or
James Dupree as their County
Commissioner.
On November 8, 1988 voters in
Pitt County District II will decide
whether Jéan Darden or Leroy
James will represent them on the
Commission. Also, on November
8th, electors will choose between
Jim Rouse and Farney Moore for
District I of the Pitt County
Board of Commissioners.
Today, it would appear that the
key to these races is the momen-
tum now generated by the D.D.
Garrett campaign. If D.D, Gar-
rett is elected for Seat A on Oc- ©
tober 11th, black voters will share
a feeling of pride and victory that
will impact how they will par-
ticipate in the November 8th elec-
tion. If D.D. Garrettt loses on Oc-
tober llth, doubts about black
voters united will also influence
participation in November.
That is why the D.D. Garrett
The fact that Jesse Jackson
will not appear on the national
presidential ballot will guarantee
less enthusiasm among black
voters. Rev. Jackson, on a na-
tional basis, can draw blacks to
the polls as no one else has been
able to do. Without that kind of
national interest, the Committee
to elect D.D. Garrett must de-
pend on local workers having
enough civic responsibility to
vote, whether Jesse Jackson is on
the national ballot or not.
Over 32,000 black voters
registered as democrats in the
Seat A election held on May 31st
and 2,340 votes were cast. There
are over 3,000 black registered
democrats in the Seat A districts.
That is proof that blacks can elect
D.D. Garrett and they can do it
with a wide margin.
Pitt County has never had a
black commissioner with the sup-
port of African-Americans of Pitt
County that will change this fall
and a new era of political unity in
Pitt County will begin.

Hardy to participate in fifty-first
annual debutante ball
My name is Kia Dawn Hardy.
I am the daughter of Bobby and
Mary Hardy and a senior at J.H.
Rose High School. I am par-
ticipating in the Fifty-First An-
nual Debutante Ball sponsored by
the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority,
Inc. in Raleigh, North Carolina.
The debutante program was
conceived in 1937 as an instru-
ment by which scholarships could
be awarded to young ladies who
have demonstrated leadership
and service to their community.
I am honored to be among the
participants of the 1988 pageant
which is held on November 25 at
the Raleigh Civic Center. My
father Bobby Hardy will serve as
my chief marshall. Bobby Hardy,
II, my brother, will serve as
junior marshall.
Through the years Alpha Theta
Omega Chapter has awarded
many scholarships because of the
generous donations of its faithful
sponsors. I am asking for your
financial support as my sponsor

said runoffs may be discriminato-
ry, but it sent the case to the state
board for a decision.
Opponents say runoffs, by dilut-
ing the influence of black voters,
violate the 1965 Voting Rights
Act. In Mecklenburg County, 10
runoffs since 1966 have involved
blacks running against whites.
Four blacks have been elected,
but only when the runoff was
among four or more candidates,
as in a multiseat district. That
allows blacks to strengthen their
influence by "single-shotting," or
voting for only one of the candi-
dates.
Thursday's ruling came after a
four-hour hearing that revolved
around technical issues of
whether the county board of elec-
tions had correctly certified Gib-
son and had properly dealt with
| AYesander's coniplaint. :
The state board said county
board members acted too early in
certifying Ms. Gibson on June 6.
Ms. Gibson will face Republi-
can Anne Powers in November.
She said she would continue with
campaigning "just as I always
have.?

Job training is a focus of employment
EDITORTS NOTE: This is the
second in a series of articles con-
cerning issues affecting the fam-
ily in North Carolina. This series
is designed to focus attention on
critical issues addressed in the
final report developed by the
GovernorTs Commission for the
Family. That report was pre-
sented to Governor Jim Martin at
a statewide conference at the
Radisson Hotel High Point, Sep-
tember 15-16.
Jobs. They represent more than
the ability to buy a new car, place
a down payment on a new home,
or purchase a new outfit. Jobs
offer the opportunity to build a
better life. Yet for some, finding
and keeping a good job with suffi-
cient benefits to support a family
is only a dream.
ooInsome cases, second and third
generations of families are now
dependent on the welfare system,?T
said Joel C. New, director of the
stateTs division of employment and
training.
o~We are Working to help make
those individuals become more in-
dependent. We Want to help a
young person or parent Who has
never received necessary skills
training to gain meaningful em-
ployment. Our concern is how to
reach these individuals, how to
assist dropouts, displaced work-
ers, the unemployed and under-
employed, senior citizens and the
disabled.?T
Recognizing the critical need for
job training in getting North Caro-
lina citizens off the Welfare roles,
Governor Jim Martin established
the North Carolina State Job Train-
ing Council to recommend policy
relating to job training in the
state.
This council is charged with the
responsibility of meeting new
challenges in labor force develop-
ment. Specifically, by Executive
Order, the Governor expanded the
role of the Council to oversee all
labor force efforts in North Caro-
lina, and to recommend how the
state uses the interest generated
by Employment Security Commis-
sion Reserve Funds.
New stated that some job train-
ing assistance is currently avail-
able through local, state, and fed-
eral government programs. The
county Departments of Social
Services operate the Community
Work Experience Program
(CWEP), a job training program
for recipients of Aid to Families
with Dependent Children (AFDC).
The program offers such serv-
ices as job preparation, job search,
work experience, short term skills
training, and supportive services
such as day care and transporta-
tion.
~ooCWEP helps welfare recipients
learn specific job skills and the
good work habits they need to
obtain full-time jobs and become
self-supporting citizens,T New
said. ~~And the program is work-
ing.?
To support his claims of suc-
cess, New cited statistics which
show that during fiscal year 1985-
86, one-third of all participants in
CWEP found paid employment,
over 98,000 hours of public service
work (valued at over $328,000)
were performed in the commu-
nity, and as of fiscal year 1986-87,
CWEP was available in 30 coun-
ties across the state.
Another program currently
being implemented for AFDC re-
cipients is oJobs Plus,? which
expands employment and train-
ing opportunities for the stateTs
unemployed and public assistance
recipients. Under this program,
the state would enter into contracts
with major employers who would
commit to finding higher paying
jobs, with benefits, for AFDC re-
cipients.
This program would work with
existing employment and training
programs.
Many participating employers
can offer the type of wages and
benefits necessary toeliminate de-
pendency on the welfare system.
New pointed out that funding is
often the primary stumbling block
toany comprehensive job training
program. The Job Training Part-
nership Act (JTPA), enacted by
federal law in 1982, helps alleviate
this problem by providing funds to
the states for job training.
This program " administered
through the state by the Division
of Employment and Training
within the Department of Natural
Resources and Community Devel-
opment "is responsible for train-
ing and placing economically dis-
advantaged adults and youth, as

well as older workers, welfare
recipients, and workers who lost
their jobs due to plant closings.
The JTPA utilizes the resources
of both the public and private sec-
tors, New said. To implement the
JTPA, the Division of Employment
and Training distributes over $53
million to service delivery areas
around the state.
Private businesses contract for
on-the-job training, the Depart-
ment of Community Colleges pro-
vides classroom and customized
training, the Department of Labor
provides pre-apprenticeship train-
ing, the Employment Security
Commission offers placesment
services, and the Department of
Public Instruction oversees a
variety of youth programs.
The Division of Employment and
training also contracts with vari-
ous other state and local service
agencies for additional job train-
ing opportunities.
Some state and national funding
is controlled by local business com-
munities through entities known
as the Private Industry Councils.
Established through the JTPA, the
Private Industry Council member-
ship consists of a majority of
owners of business concerns or
private sector executives. The re-
mainder of its membership in-
cludes education agencies, organ-
ized labor, rehabilitation agencies,
and the local Employment Secu-
rity Commission (ESC).
~o~These Private Industry Coun-
cils are the labor force policy
making bodies for local govern-
ment and have overall planning
and coordination responsibility for
job training activities, and a spe-
cial responsibility to see that train-
ing meets local employer needs
and standards.TT New said. ~~These
councils give employers the nec-
essary resources to enable their
employees to retain employment
and thereby the financial well-
being of their families.?T
~Through these and other public
and private sector programs, find-
ing and keeping a job will become
less of adream and more ofa real-
ity for those currently on welfare,?
New concluded. ~~Strengthening
the skills of North CarolinaTs citi-
zens will not only benefit the indi-
vidual and their family, but will
also improve our ability to com-
pete in the national and interna-
tional marketplace.?T

ing these and other job training
programs administered by the
State, contact Joel C. New at the

Training, 919-733-6383.
