Once a janitor at Williamston
High School, now a licensed attor-
ney and recently sworn-in assistant
appellate defender in Raleigh,
Towns climbed the ladder of success
virtually by himself.
Towns, a 1976 graduate of Wil-
liamston High School, received his
undergraduate diploma from North
Carolina Central University in May
1980, graduating summa cum laude
anid among the top in his class with
a bachelor Ts degree in public ad-
ministration.
He then accepted a scholarship to
Boston Ts Northeastern University
School of Law, graduating in May
1983.
According to former WHS Princi-
pal Ed Farnell, Towns dropped out
of school in 1973 at

taught Leland and knew he was a
good kid and wanted to help him, ?
Farnell said.
Help came to Towns in the form of
two jobs. First he was given a three-
day-a-week job to help move WHS to
its then new facility, and clean up
the old gym.
More help came in July 1974
when Farnell hired Towns as a jani-
tor at the school. But two days before
school started, Towns approached
Farnell and told the principal he
wanted to return to school but
needed to keep his job.
Farnell and Towns worked out a
schedule for the student-janitor.
Throughout. the 1974-75 and
:1975-76 academic years plus the
summers of 1975 and 1976, Towns
worked as a janitor from 6:30.a.m. to
8:30 a.m., attended school from 8:30
a.m. to 9:30 p.m., and then contin-
ued janitorial work until 9:30 p.m.

\ Pitt County Candidate
~Commissioner D. D. Garrett Seeks Re-Election
Pitt County Commissioner D.D.
Garrett is acandidate for re-election
to Seat A of the Pitt County Board of
Commissioners. Elected in T 1988,
Mr. Gerrett has operated the D.D.
Garrett Agency in Greenville since
1946. Aside from his successful
business career in accounting and
real estate, Garrett has dedicated
most of his life toward civic affairs;
especially in the Afro-American
community. No single person in Pitt
County is more well known for being
involved with issues related to the
advance of Pitt County Ts black com-
munity. In addition to being the first
| black man elected as a commis-
sioner in Pitt County, Mr. Garrett's
influence has been instrumental in
advances in voter registration,
employment in county and city of-
fices and the desegregation of public
facilities and area businesses that
were once reserved for whites only.
Mr. Garrett has led or taken part in
every major movement in Pitt
County that has impacted opportu-
nities or quality of life issues in the
community.
Commissioner Garrett believes
that serving as an elected official is
much more than a means of per-
sonal accomplishment. He often
says that itisimportant that elected
officials are serious about the re-
sponsibility related to public serv-
ice. When asked about his own can-
didacy for re-election, Garrett says
that he has confidence that voters
will consider his long record of pub-
lic service as well as his recent four
years as a strong yet calm voice as a
Pitt County commissioner.
Commissioner Garrett's dedica-
tion to the community is reflected in
his support and membership to
many civic and religious organiza-
tions. He is a member of York
Memorial AME Zion Church, the
Executive Committee éf the First
Congressional District, the Black
Leadership Caucus, the Pitt County
Board of Realtors, the Pitt County
Infant Mortality Task Force, the
Greenville Industrial Epps Alumni
Association, the Mid-East Commis-
sion, the North Carolina Associa-
tion of Realtors, the North Carolina
Central University Alumni Associa-
tion, the Pitt County NAACP (presi-
dent emeritus), the West Greenville
Neighborhood Clean-Up and Drug
Prevention Task Force, the Pitt-
Greenville Chamber of Commerce,
the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, the
Pitt Aging Services Community, the
Pitt County Democratic Party, the
North Carolina Executive Commit-
tee of the NAACP, the American
Legion Post No. 160, the Martin
County Community Action Com-
mittee and the Mount Herman
Masonic Lodge. Mr. Garrett is also
the coordinator of social and politi-
cal action of the North Carolina
Conference of the AME Zion
Church. He is a veteran of World
War II, having served in the U.S.
Navy.
Although Mr. Garrett is a distin-
guished senior citizen, he maintains
a busy schedule that would exhaust
many persons half his age. And
while leading this active and well-
traveled life, Commissioner Garrett
is a very down-to-earth person and a
family man who this week is cele-
brating 50 years of marriage to his
beloved wife, Clotea. He has two
sons and five grandchildren.
The re-election of Commissioner
Garrett to the commissioner's Seat
A is very timely and extremely
important. A person does not need to
be a political genius to realize that
re-electing D.D. Garrett to the Pitt
County Board of Commissioners
makes a great deal of good common
sense. Your vote and support will be
appreciated.
The Anti-Democratic Democrats
BY DR. me) og FULANI
On Tuesday t; March 31, the
Now York Police. Dotnet ak
ng on.instructions from Bronx Bor-
oan President Fernando Ferrer,
twice assaulted me: and several of
. The first attack oc-
canal outside the presidential de-
bate at Lehman College, the second
outside arestaurant where Gov. Bill
Clinton was scheduled to appear at
a post-debate party.
Though I had a ticket to attend
the debate, which I presented at the
entrance gate, I was refused entry
by New York City police on the di-
rect instructions of Mr. Ferrer.
When I protested to police that the
exclusion was arbitrary and ~un-
democratic, the order was given to
eject me. I was surrounded by police,
manhandled and forcibly thrown
against the fence in full view of wit-
nesses.
After I was prevented from enter-
ing Lehman College, I began a
march of 150 supporters to the res-
taurant to protest Clinton Ts appear-
ance at a Bronx Democratic organi-
zation reception hosted by a local
city councilman. The protest ulti-
mately forced Clinton to cancel his
appearance,
But after the peaceful march,
which had a palice escort, and after
having been led by the police to a
protest spot directly in front of the
restaurant, the site commander
who led the attack at Lehman sud-
denly brought 200 police in full riot
gear out ontothe street, andover the
protests of my attorney, ordered the
police to rush the demonstrators
and physically force us to the other
side of the street.
Simultaneously, several officers
moved to arrest a supporter of mine
on trumped-up charges of assault-
ing a police officer.
The viciousness with which the
police attacked me and my support-
ers made a very clear statement
about how Mr. Ferrer and the
Democratic Party feel about democ-
racy. If I Tve done nothing else during
the course of this primary cam-
paign, I have exposed the extent to
which the election process is under
the very tight control of the Demo-
cratic Party and the various institu-
tions in which it operates "from the
police to the courts to the Board of
When I challenged the nominat-
ing petitions of Sen. Paul Tsongas,
putting forth that he had less than
the required number of signatures
and that he had committed fraud to
get them, the Democratic Party
mobilized its election commission-
ers, its judges, and its majority con-
trol over the State Assembly and
pulled out all the stops to make sure
that Tsongas was on the ballot.
When I challenged various debate
sponsors to include all four of the
Democratic Party candidates in the
New York race "two of whom, Larry

lice who were ojust following orders ?
from Fernando Ferrer. And when I
and others attempted to exercise
our constitutional right to hold a
peaceful protest outside, the police
attempted to provoke a riot.
There is a very clear pattern here.

GOES ON THE AIR
Nearly 75% of people surveyed in a
time/UNN poll believe Americans
haven Tt been told the truth about the
assassination of President John F.
Kennedy.
But what do Black Americans think
about this subject or any other?
On March 18th at 1 p.m. EST, over
50 Black-oriented radio stations will
become what I loosely call Radio
Black America.
In fact, it will be the first weekly
opinion survey of Black Americans,
called the Buy Freedom 900 Opinion
Poll. Both local and national poll
results will be announced on a weekly
basis.
Callers can vote on issues of

24 hours a day 7 days a week by

99 cents is placed on the caller Ts
monthly phone bill for the service.
The calles will also get a toll-free 800
number they can call for information
on getting a free magazine and
catalog.
Between March 18 and 25, callers
can respond to the question on
everyone Ts mind: ~ ~Do you think Mike

organizations, civic groups and
individuals across the state to
promote public awareness of organ
and tissue donation.
Most people support donation when
they understand the need; COPA
wants to make the facts available so
everyone can make an educated
decision. For example, many people
are surprised to learn there is no cost
for donation, that donation does not
interfere with funeral arrangements,
and that all major religions approve
of donation. People may also think of
transplantation as an experimental
medicine, but the most common
transplants are now considered
normal medical. practice. A kidney
transplant patient today has a better
than 90% chance of success and the
vast majority of people on the organ
waiting list are kidney patients.

a los inmigrantes
WASHINGTON, (EFE).- El vicepresidente de E] Salvador, José
Francisco Merino, pidié ~ ~tranquilidad ? T a los salvadoreiios exiliados
en Estados Unidos y les recomend6 que retrasen su regreso al pais
para no poner en peligro el proceso de reconciliacién puesto en mam
cha tras el fin de la guerra civil.
En una conferencia de prensa ofrecida en Washington, Merino
afirmé que el gobierno estadounidense ha acogido ~ o ~favorablemen-
te T la peticion del presidente salvadorefio, Alfredo Cristiani, de que
no expulse de su territorio a los emigrantes con permiso provisional
de residencia.
E] proximo mes de junio vencen los permisos temporales de cien-
tos de miles de salvadorefios y otros centroamericanos.
Las autoridades norteamericanas, que estan estudiando la posibi-
lidad de prorrogar los permisos, aun no han tomado una decision de-
finitiva al respecto.
~ ~Comprendemos que en Estados Unidos hay conciencia plena de
que los paises centroamericanos estan iniciando procesos de estabi-
lizacion econdmica y politica y que el retorno masivo de centroame-
ricanos seria un factor que echaria al traste estos primeros logros, ya
que no hay condiciones para garantizar una vida productiva a con-
tingentes de centroamericanos que retornen ? T, dijo.
oSin embargo "agrego ", es nuestro anhelo que la familia centro-
americana pueda retornar teniendo condiciones mas favorables pa-
ra su futuro, una vez que la paz sea efectiva* T.
Se calcula que alrededor de un millon de salvadorefios residentes
en Estados Unidos envian a su pafs 1.000 millones de délares anuales

In our audit of the Department of
Transportation's Ferry Division, our
auditors concluded that the division
had become a political dumping
ground, a hot bed of nepotism, and
that tax money was being wasted.
We recommended cutting
employees, eliminating nepotism,
and making the Ferry Division a little
Our auditors recommended a
simple tightening of reporting and. '
monitoring procedures to make sure
that the academic freedoms that
professors must be afforded do not
lead to abuses of the taxpayers or of -

In short, we found more right than
wrong in this audit which was
generally good news for everyone
~involved.
And now that we let some sunlight
in on these problems, the checks and
balances in our system can go to work
to protect the taxpayers.

would not have:
A city swimming pool
The Foreman Recreation Facility
MoyeWood Housing Former Westside Boxing Club
WOOW Radio
(Jim Rouse, owner of Woow, can tell you how Bill helped him |
finance and establish his radio station.)
Philipi Day Care Center in Simpson
(Reverend Batchelor will tell you that without Bill's help this
facility would not be in existence. )
We need a mayor who understands all of Greenville all of the time. As
your former Mayor, I endorse Bill Dansey and I ask that ~you go to'the
polls on May 5th and vote for Bill Dansey, as well.
Thank you,
Ed Carter
