CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - The space shutUe Challenger, a manmade comet trailing a 500-foot geyser of fire, set the sky ablaze in a brilliant show of sight and sound as it left Earth in the wee hours today. Aboard was a five-man crew, including Americas first black astronaut.
Only hours before liftoff there was another celestial spectacle: thunder boomed across the Kennedy Space Center, lightning danced around the spaceship and rain drenched the launch pad and thousands of spectators drawn to the area for the first night launch of a shuttle. The remnants of that storm delayed the launch by 17 minutes, until 2:32 a.m. EDT, and almost resulted in a scrub.
You should have seen it from here! spacecraft commander Richard Truly said of the launch as the ship'' neared orbit. Id was daylight almost all the way up.
He described the liftoff as like driving through a fog bank, except there was an external orange light source within the fog bank.
Truly added: You couldnt see anything because of the light... it got brighter and brighter until the two solid rocket boosters burned out and fell off. Then, Truly said, the light from the solid rocket motors was about 500 times more than I remember on STS-2.
Truly was aboard the second shuttle flight in November 1981.
Fellow astronaut Daniel Brandenstein said the separation of the boosters was the inside of a bonfire. That was a real experience.
It was quite an experience as well for those watching from below. Flame billowed from the base of the shuttle, fanned across the pad with white-hot light and steam.
And then Challenger, illuminated at the birth of flight by 800 million-candlepower floodlights, rose swiftly off the pad, the flame from its solid rocket boosters building to a tower of fire that could be seen from the launch area for 2 minutes and 42 seconds.
The sky grew ever brighter as the flame bounced off the clouds. It looked like a murky, gray dawn created by a white-gold sun. It was bright enough at the press site three miles from the pad to read a newspaper.
First the light, then the sound: loud, louder and still louder until it shook the ground and rattled windows. Still the shuttle climbed, its boosters pumping hellfire for more than two minutes before they flamed out.
There was a moon, but it was pale and weak. The launch, a

French And British Peace Keepers Also Fired Upon
Next Step For Monitor Team Is Recovery Of Ship's Turret
CAPE HATTERAS, N.C. (AP) Now that the elusive anchor from the the sunken Civil War ironclad USS Monitor has been recovered, researchers are turning their attention to salvaging other parts of the vessel.
Divers retrieved the coral-encrusted anchor Monday, nearly 121 years after it was dropped in a futile attempt to save the warship during a violent storm. The recovery mission by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and East Carolina University began Aug. 21 but was hampered by bad weather.
The Monitor sank Dec. 31,1862.,Dina Hill, a coordinator of the project to recover the ironclad, said crew members had tried desperately to keep the ship afloat by detaching the 1,300-pound anchor from its 700-foot chain.
Thanks to the improved weather that permitted 15-foot visability, divers were able Monday to get the first clear videotapes of the wreck. Last week, visibility was limited to 5 feet, said Jack Stringer of NOAA. mThe next step, said Stringer, is to make sure the turret is safe; that the ^ound around the base of the turret is stable.
Some scientists hope to build a supporting structure for the hull so the turret canl)e removed from the Monitor, which rests upside down under 230 feet of water 16 miles off the coast.
Nancy Foster, chief of NOAAs sanctuary programs division and director of the expedition, said it would take until next year to accomplish some goals.
We didnt get a chance to get any sediments of the ocean bottom around the turret, she said. We need those to help determine the feasibility of recovering the turret, which lies underneath the overturned wreck.
She said the sediment samples would be taken next year, when engineering studies on the turret will be made.
Meanwhile, the anchor, measuring 4'/i feet by neariy 5 feet, will remain in a specially desipied tank aboard the research vessel RV Johnson while scientists do unrelated work for the Department of Marine Fisheries.
Ms. Hill said the anchor would be taken off the Johnson on Thursday and transported by flatbed truck to ECU. Once there, it will be placed in a tank of water throu^ which electricity will be run to remove encrustations, she said.

BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) -One French Foreign Legionnaire was killed and two others were wounded In an ambush in Beirut today, 24 hours after two U.S. Marines were killed by mortar fire. British peacekeeping forces also were attacked for the first time, in the same area where the French were hit.
The U.S. aircraft carrier Dwight D, Eisenhower moved closer to the Beirut coast, and Marine spokesman Maj. Bob Jordan said it was there to "support the Marines. He did not elaborate.
Meanwhile, Israel agreed to a new request from President Reagan to further delay the partial pullback of Israeli troops from Lebanons central mountains, Israel radio reported from Tel Aviv.
The latest fatality raised the toll to 49 dead in and around Beirut since Sunday. The state radio said President Amin Gemayel convened an emergency Cabinet meeting to deal with the deteriorating security situation.
Maj. Alain de Lestrade, spokesman for the French contingent in the multinational peacekeeping force, said the ambush took place at the Galerie Semaan crossing point in Beirut.
He said in addition to the legionnaire killed that one of the wounded was in serious condition. He said all three were members of the same company but did not identify
them further He said the ambushers fired a mortar or a rocket-propelled grenade at a water truck operated by French forces.
He said the area around the ambush site was "very dangerous and there was still shooting at midday.
Police said six Lebanese soldiers died in a hospital today from gunshot and shrapnel wounds suffered in the previous two days of .battles with Shiite Moslem militiamen.
This raised the casualty toll to 49 killed and 217 wounded in the worst round (Please turn to Page 8)

Mother Of Five-Year-Old Battles Elephant Man Disease
By PATRICIA McCORMACK UPI Health Editor Kelly Krug, 5, melted hearts all around when she returned home from a checkup, her mother Pat Krug recalled the other day.
She smiled and smiled and smiled, Mrs. Krug said. As usual.
Thats some feat for a child whos had three craniotomies this year to remove tumors, to reconstruct bone on the side of her head, to remove a non-functioning eye, and put a bone between the eye and brain where bone was missing.
The Dedham, Mass., girl on her most recent trip to the hospital submitted to a spinal tap. Doctors checking her over also probed where they had implanted bone from her hip weeks earlier. It was still in place - where an eye would be.
The bone segment was not being pushed out by pressure behind it, as an earlier bone piece had been.
The spinal tap revealed fluid was not collecting inside Kellys head. For the time being, Mrs. Krug said, Kellys winning.
Mrs. Krug, mother of three and wife of an electrician, related other good news. Since the bone fragment was staying in place, Kelly could be measured for for an artificial eye.
The eye will not see but will give Kelly the appearance of other kids.
Transitory joy over a fake eye is all that Mrs. Krug can manage as the heartbroken mother of a child bom with neurofibromatosis - Elephant Mans disase.
The inherited disorder is called that after the famed neurofibromatosis victim in 19th century England whose story in recent years became a hit play and a movie.
The disorder, commonly called NF, happens once in every 3,000 births. Mrs. Krug, as other parents of stricken children, wishes people would stop calling it Elephant Mans disease. Only about one-third of the cases include severe deformities.
Some 100,000 Americans are affected by the inherited disorder that results from a spontaneous gene mutation, said Dr. Alan Rubenstein, coK^hairman of the medical advisory board of the National Neurofibromatosis Foundation.
An associate professor of neurology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, Rubenstein is a founder of the foundation. He said NF is as common as muscular dystrophy and multiple sclerosis.
But until the foundation started up in 1978, it was an ophan disorder, one misunderstood by the medical profession and the public.

"From the day she was bom, what should have been should have been a happy occasion was a sad one, said Mrs. Kmg, a part-time lab technician.
Kelly had a bulging, enlarged, blind eye. Naturally our family loved h r just the same.
Several doctors examined her not knowing what her diagnosis was until at age 4 months her ophthamologist asked if she had birthmmrks.
She did have 24 cafe-au-lait marks. We finally had a diagnosis -neurofibromatosis. We had never heard of it.
Still there was no information about NF except that it can be a mild disorder, or sometimes severe. Kellys-prognosis seemed okay. Someday they will do cosmetic surgery.
By the time Kelly was 2, Mrs. Krug said she heard a chapter of the National Neurofibromatosis Foundation was starting up in Massachusetts. She went to a meeting. Her life has not been the same since.
At my first meeting, she recalled, I met two women with NF, covered from head to toe with skin tumors. Large and small bulbous tumors.
One looked like she had two noses. One couldnt comb her hair without her head bleeding.
I met mothers of kids with serious problems: deaf, internal life-threatening tumors, enlarged arm -three times larger than normal.
I couldnt sleep for a week. Neurofibromatosis, I learned, was like a time bomb. And my daughter Kelly had it.
There was no publicity, no funding, no research to speak of. We as parents of kids with neurofibromatosis or adult NF victims had to do it. Get some help started. And research.
It isnt easy. We have family obligations and regular jobs. But Ive been an active officer for three and a half years now.
Dan Nichols Gives Talk
Dan Nichols was speaker at the meeting of the Greenville Credit Women-International held last week at Abrams Family Re'^tau-rant. His topic was on laws governing collection.

Mrs. Krug, president of the Massachusetts chapter of the NF Foundation, detailed some of the psychological problems of the disease.
We want Kelly to have a normal life but her condition keeps getting worse, she said.
After the third craniotomy in June there was more bad news. Brain tumors were found on the frontal lobe.
Shes happy, outgoing, loving, loves her Strawberry Shortcake collection, and rock n roll and Sesame Street.
She wishes she didnt have the eye problem. But she will always add - Its OK, Mommy. I can see with my good eye.
Im thinking I wish thats all Kelly had to deal with. She is stared at, pointed at, sometimes shunned by other kids.
Mrs. Krug said she would like to think that with the help of doctors and research that Kelly could have a fighting chance for a good life.
All I can do about NF is try to fight it.
Mrs. Krug said there are times she is overwhelmed by the many things that need to be done in research.
And money is hard to come by, she said. But it is my hope that kids like Kelly can be helped.
A case of NF as severe as' that of Joseph Merricks -the English Elephant Man
Duplicate
Winners
Club championships will be held Wednesday morning and afternoon at the local duplicate bridge games to be played at Planters Bank.
Club championships were won Saturday afternoon by the following; Lee Johnson and Graham Lane, first with .726 percent; Beulah Eagles and Dave Proctor, second; Gail McClelland and Lela Parvin, third; Dot McKemie and Ray Gunderson, fourth; Marjorie Crisp and Lou Craig, fifth; Jane Riner and Ray Neeland, sixth; Lucy Roberts and Belle Harrell, seventh; tied for eighth were Sara Bradbury and Mildred Harker with Dr. Charles Duffy and Dr. Hankerson.
North-South winners Wednesday afternoon included: Mrs. M.H. Bynum and Mrs. Eli Bloom, first with .580 percent; Mrs. J.S. Rhodes Jr. and Mrs. Roger Critcher Jr., second; Mrs.' Ray Gunderson and Mrs. Dot McKemie, third
East-West: Mrs. W.R. Harris and Dave Proctor, first with .574 percent; tied for second were Mrs. David Stevens and Mrs. William McConnell with Mrs. Harold Forbes and Mrs. Effie Williams.
Wednesday morning winners included: Mrs. Clifton Toler and Mrs. George
who died In 1890 at age 27 -is not usual. One that severe, the NF Foundation claims, has not been reported since. But about 60 percent of the patients have some type of physical impairment, such as multiple skin lumps or deformation of an arm, leg orhand.
Rubenstein said the disease can almost always be identified in babies shortly after birth by the appearance of light brown - cafe au lait - spots on the skin. Doctors look for six or seven spots.
Other signs of the disease in children:
-Abnormal rate of growth, too slow or too fast.
-Curvature of the spine and other bone deformations.
-Learning, speech and vision troubles.
There is no cure for NF. Research aims for one, as well as finding the cause.
Treatment, as in Kelly Krugs case, involves orthopedic surgery to correct bone deformities, plastic surgery for cosmetic improvements, and neurosurgei^ to pluck out or pare brain or spinal tumors.
Genetic counseling can help adults who carry the NF gene and wonder about passing it on to offspring. A person with NF has a 50-50 chance of doing that.
(Questions about NF will be answered by Joan C. Rudd, president. The National Neurofibromatosis Foundation Inc., 70 West 40th St.; New York, N.Y. 10018.

DEAR ABBY: Sally Ann (not her real name) and I have gone together for four yearr Were announcing our engagement soon and plan to mai^ in about three months.
I planned to buy her a modrat little diamond, but she has other ideas. She wants a big rock that costs $2,000.
Until recently I was willing to buy her the rock, although I am far h-om rich. Then I saw a synthetic diamond that looked so much like the real thing, most jewelers couldnt tell the difference. I can get a ring that looks like the one Sally Ann wants for about $300.
Thats the problem. She wants the real thing. With all the other expenses well have, I think a $2,000 ring is a waste. Thats where it stands. I really love her, but I cant see spending that Idnd of money on a ring.
Entirely by coincidence I came across this quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson: Rings and jewels are not gifts but apologies for gifts. The only true gift is a portion of yourself.
What do you say?
DEBA'HNG
DEAR DEBATING: If you were Van Gogh, you could give her an ear. But seriously, you cant blame a woman for wanting the real thing. However, dont go in hock for a rock. Spend whatever you can but let it be genuine.
DEAR ABBY: You are wrong when you say that North America and South America are two separate continents.
You must be kidding, Abby. According to universal geography, there are six continents: America, which includes North, Central and South America; Antarctica; Africa; Asia; Europe; and Oceania.
Citizens of the United States are the only people in the world who proclaim the United States and Canada to be the North American continent. It sounds like a joke to the rest of the world.
R. GONZALES
DEAR MR. GONZALES: According to my Rand McNally World Atlas, there are seven continents: Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North
America and South America. Geography (like history) differs depending on where its taught.
DEAR ABBY: Our daughter just gave birth to her second child. Her first child was left in the care of a baby sitter while our daughter was in the hospital.
Our daughter told her husband that he should tell the sitter a young woman of 20 to go home nights to sleep. (She lives across the street)
We were very much upset to learn that the young lady did not go home nights; instead, she stayed in the same house with our son-in-law.
We are not making any accusations, but we are very much upset about this. What should we, her parents, do?
NO NAMES, PLEASE
DEAR NO NAMES: Nothing. And the less said about it, the better.
Getting married? Whether you want a formal church wedding or a simple, "do-your-own-thing ceremony, get Abbys booklet. Send f 1 plus a long, self-addraued, stamped (37 cents) envel<^ to: Abbys Wedding Booklet, P.O. Box 38923, Hollywood, CaUf. 90038.

Commission Ses After Needs Of Diplomats
By JOHN C. GIVEN Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK (AP) - The diplomat was worried. His landlord, he said, was threatening to have him killed.
We asked him what happened, said Andrew Odell, deputy commissioner of the citys Commission for the United Nations and Consular Corps.
He said he had come home and found a letter under the door. It said the exterminator was coming the next day.
Sometimes the ways of this city are hard to understand, eS^ially for people who dont speak fluent English. The exterminator, in this case, was trying to rid the apartment of cockroaches.
Each year, the commissions 12-member staff handles about 5,000 queries - landlord-tenant problems; commercial, security and family matters; legal issues and the like.
Were the first [xiint of contact, said Commissioner Gillian Sorensen. Were problem solvers, interpreters, negotiators, buffers, a complaint bureau.n mWe try to resolve disputes that could escalate into international incidents, and we try to respond to the special needs and concerns of the diplomatic community, without compromising the ' interests of the city.
It is an unusual task for a municipal office. New York hosts the largest diplomatic community in the world: 90 consulates, 157 missions to the United Nation and the U.N'. complex itself - about 35,000 employees and families in all. But the city is not a national capital, Mrs. Sorensen noted.
Thus, she said, We perform some of the responsibilities of a state department without a foreign policy, like a protocol office.
The commission works with every country represented here, including more than 20 that have no diplo-matic relations with Washington, she added.
The commission helps New Yorkers and officials of the federal and city governments deal with foreign governments. It also helps the city deal with Washington.
Last year, it helped win a federal promise of up to $7 million a year to help pay for police protection of foreign diplomats.
We have a vested interest in making their stay as palatable and enjoyable as possible, Odell said, explaining that the city draws $700 million evei^ year into its economy -restaurant, hotels, cars, in addition to office and personal expenses.
At the same time, mostly because of legal immunities, officials estimate the diplomats cost New York and its businesses and residents $15 million annually.
In 1980, officials calculated
Antique Show, Sale Planned
CHAPEL HILL - The Chapel Hill Preservation Societys ninth annual antiques show and sale is slated for Oct. 21-23 at the Community CeBterhere.
'Nrenty-eight dealers from the eastern United States are expected. The weekend will beg&i with a patrons party at- the Horace Williams House from 5-7 p.m. Oct. 21. The show and sale will continue on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 1-6 p.m.
A highlight of the event will be a breakfast Saturday mwming at 9 a.m. followed by a slide-lecture by antiques aporaiser Ann Daniel of Reigh. Her. topic will be Qurent Antique Auctions: Whats Selling.
Cora Himadi is serving as g^ral chairman of the show and sale.
Few men owned even one pinstriped suit just a few y^ ago, but now some of than own several. Marvin A. Bbimenfeld, the president of April-Marcus, a merchan-disiog cosulting firm, says till pmstriped suit is now as popular as the navy-blue suit foe business and client meetings.* ^
that New York City lost $1.82 million in unpaid parking tickets, traffic summonses and towing fees, as well as $12.2 million for tax exempt properties. In addition, there were $42,000 in reported unpaid (tebts to businesses and individuals.
For example, Odell said the office negotiated a $3,600 maintenance payment in 1980 to Pan American World Airways because Ugandan dictator Idi Amins personal jetliner sat idle at nearby Newark International Airport after he was over-- thrown.
Sometimes, potentially explosive conflicts arise involving real or misunderstood applications of diplomatic immunity, Odell said.
Most common are real estate disputes, which can easily involve huge sums of money in this crowded city. One-bedroom apartments near the United Nations can rent for as much as $1,000 a month -and up.
In one example, the interchange over a certain chunk of real estate between two U.N. missions became so heated that at one point the countries threatened to retaliate with their foreign relations, Odell said. Then there are the others. Someone buys a $1,000 carpet worth $200... a $1,000 camera worth $400. ,
In such cases, the commission attempts to negotiate a compromise, lacking the power to impose a settlement.
Always, staffer Jeffrey DeLaurentis said, the commission is conscious of the value of keeping the diplomats happy.
New York is aggravating enough as it is, and if people arent aggravated, theyre happy and can do a better job, he said. ... You never know when that might translate into a vote. Who knows? Maybe it could make a difference whether a vote goes for or against the United States.

New York is a tough place. But, you know, were the mayors office, Odell smiled.
The commission also helps newcomers make contact with compatriots already liv-ing here, a program especially valuable in this notoriously impersonal city. The need became obvious in l%2, when the lonely wife of a Third World diplomat jumped to her death with two young children from an 18th-fk)or window.
Sometimes, however, things do not work out. Staffer Phil Goldberg recalled a diplomat who brought a maid to New York.
Basically he had her working seven days a week, 24 hours a day, with no contact with the outside world. ... He paid her $80 a month. She slept in a tiny room, along with a child of the diplomat she was caring for.... He forced her to eat on the floor.
A relative came to us and begged us to help her.... She was a virtual prisoner there, Goldberg said.
The case was never satisfactorily resolved.
Just when the commission was about to take action, he said, the diplomat reported that the maid had run away.

Theres a current joke among female broadcasters where their child asks, What are you going to be when you grow up. Mommy? and she answers, Unemployed."
Irouically, being an anchorwoman is the only profession in the world where experience is a liability.
In recent years, she has become one of the most visible symbols of equality in our society. For years, women pilots have been hustled into the cockpit before passengers got a chance to see them board. Women garage mechanics have kept a low profile while men still confront customers with the bad news regarding their cars. But at 5, 6, 10 and 11, shes there.
That she is there at all is nothing less than a miracle. The demands made on women broadcasters are still pretty superficial, as is evidenced by the case in the Midwest of a television newswoman who was threatened with dismissal not by what she said or how she said it, but how she looked when she said it.
Imagine for a moment that male newscasters are chosen by the same prerequisites set up for women.

Cycle Goes On
As concerned followers of the local employment scene it was a point of great satisfaction to read in The Daily Reflector there were nearly 300 job openings in the area for persons with specialty skills.
To be sure, we read it was still an employers market, which means those openings would be largely filled by , applicants who could meet specific standards of skill and experience. Even so, it was gratifying.
One could bask in reflecting over that good news for the day' for several hours before that glow was jolted by realization that so many of the openings cited by the Employment Security Commission did not offer a lot of immediate hope to those who presumably most needed employment.
The really down-and-outers in todays economy are often the untrained, unskilled, inexperienced ... and so on. There are always too many of them.
Can they be trained?
Some few, yes. But we fear too many would be lacki*ig in the basic requirements of adequate schooling, personal discipline, meeting certain health standards, or perhaps being within those age limitations that prevail in some fields of employment.
It has already been determined that the childen of people with those shortcomings are apt to be similarly infected; so the cycle of poverty has not been broken for all our people. The numbers so entrapped should be of great concern to everyone.
He Made His Mark
Seldom has anyone had more impact on our community than did Dr. Edwin Burtis Aycock, the local physician who died Friday.
For many years he was one of the mainstay family practice physicians, who saw to our medical needs during a time when doctors were in short supply.
In addition to his rigorous schedule as a physician. Dr. Aycock was concerned with local affairs, particularly the education of our young people. He served on the Greenville Board of Education as a member and chairman for 15 years. During that time of service he helped guide local schools through some of Southern educations most difficult times. He also provided care for school athletes for over 30 years and was a past president of the Greenville Lions Club.
Failing health had kept Dr. Aycock from being active for the past several years. He had made his mark here, however, and we are a better community because of the leadership and service he provided.

Policy Is Failure
LOS ANGELES As one reason for supporting his hard line on El Salvador, President Reagan has offered the prospect of refugees flooding this country to escape communism.
But if pre-empting uncontrolled immigration is his purpose, then the presidents policies are a failure. Central Americans have fled to the U.S. in the hundreds of thousands, and a large number possibly as many as 500,000 have come from El Salvador, a nation of only 4.7 million.
Here in Reagans former hometown, some 200,000 Salvadorans are said to live, with 50,000 squeezed into L.A.s downtown Pico-Union district.
While on Pico Boulevard commercial symbols of El Salvadors growing U.S. presence stare openly at passersby, the sidestreets overflow with families who hide in Pico-Unions dilapidated apartment buildings, often in one room. As mostly undocumented aliens, the occupants are hiding from U.S. authorities,
The Salvadorans are a frightened refugee population, says Aurora Martinez, a retired nurse who coordinates health care efforts for Pico-Unions Oscar R. Romero clinic. They exhibit all the worst symp-The Daily Reflector

Origins only exacerbate the bleak employment picture. Says social worker Cynthia Anderson, referring to proposed federal restrictions on employers who hire undocumented workers: With the passage of the Simpson-Mazzoli bill in the House, no employer wants to hire an illegal alien and get fined.
Few Salvadoran refugees, however, seem prepared to return home just yet, or even if and when Central Americas strife subsides. But, they say, serious peace negotiations to end El Salvadors civil war might encourage more potential refugees to stay home.

Philippine opposition leader Benigno Aquinos brutal assassination at the Manila airport last weekend should have fueled the imagination of anyone who remembers the Nicaraguan revolution. In 1978, a similarly charismatic opposition figure. La Prenza editor Pedro Chamorro, was gunned down on the streets of Managua. As is likely in Aquinos death, Chamorros killers were never identified but were nonetheless linked to the nations long-ruling dictator (in Nicaraguas case, Anastasio Somoza Debayle).
Its generally concluded, too, that Chamorros death served most to unite all of Nicaragua against Somoza's rule. Time will tell whether history repeats itself in the land of Ferdinand Marcos.

Should There Be A King Holiday?
WASHINGTON - Now that emotions have subsided in the wake of Saturdays march on Washington, it may be possible to address a few observations to this business of a federal holiday honoring Martin Luther King Jr. without getting everybody stirred up.
The idea is wholly unwise. As a matter of principle, as a matter of perspective, and for several practical reasons, the idea ought to be abandoned in favor of some other means of honoring the civil rights leader.
I knew King very slightly; we once debated on national network television, and though we were poles apart on legislative issues, I admired his skill as an orator and his courage as a man. When he went out to disturb the peace, he put on his go-to-jail clothes; unlike todays gutless wonders on college campuses, who want to violate the draft registration law and still collect subsidized student loans, Martin Luther King never sought impunity. He accepted whatever punishment came his way, and there is no denying his profound influence on the adoption of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. He became the foremost symbol of the revolutionary racial changes that bgan in 1954 with the Supreme Courts decision in the school segregation cases.
But the question at hand is a legislative question: Should the Congress enact a law making Kings birthday, Jan. 15, a legal holiday for the District of Columbia and for federal workers everjwhere? Let me argue the negative side of that proposition.
First, the practical matters: Legal holidays are supposed to serve a dual purpose. They honor particular individuals or events, and they provide working people with a day of rest from their everyday burdens. We have nine federal holidays: New Years, Washingtons Birthday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Holidays cost money. There is no way accurately to fix the cost to the government and to industry for the lost production that unavoidably results from a paid legal holiday, but the cost runs into the hundreds of millions of dollars. Must we add one more such consequence to the nine
federal holidays already observed? If Kings birthday in January were to be made a national holiday, we would wind up with six holidays in a period of two and a half months Election Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years and then Kings Day. The argument in favor of easing the burden on the labor force ceases to hold water.
'These practical objections provide the least of the objections. Note that of the nine federal holidays, only two honor specific individuals: George Washington and Christopher Columbus. We have no federal holiday for such towering figures as Jeff^on, Madison and Lincoln. A decent sense of historical perspective should tell us that Martin Luther King, influential as he was in the field of civil rights, was no John Adams, no John Marshall, no Benjamin Franklin.
It is a sound principle in these matters to take the long view. Congress ought never to name a federal building for a living politician. The FBI,building on Pennsylvania Avenue never should have been named for J. Edgar Hoover. A long period of years should elapse before individuals are formally ranked in the
pantheon of national greatness. It takes time to assess character and to appraise achievements, and this truism applies in the matter of Martin Luther King.
The FBIs files on King were deposited in 1977 with the National Archives, under seal for 50 years. The year 2027 is no farther in the future than the year 1939 is in our past, and that seems not so very long ago. The files will document Kings intimate association with communist figures. The files will remind us of Kings vitriolic attacks on his own country in the 1960s, when he publicly found the United States worse than Nazi Germany.
To say that the pending holiday bill is a legislative question is to stop short of the whole truth. The bill is a hot political question. It is preposterous to contend that if one opposes the bill, one is therefore anti-b ack, but political life is filled with preposterous propositions. It will take courage of a high order to vote against the measure. Soon enough we will discover who has it, and who doesnt.

Shift In Workforce Increasing
RALEIGH - Once upon a time, the typical American familys daily ritual consisted of the American woman sending her husband off to work, and her children off to school, with brown lunch bags. It was her job to clean house, do the grocery shopping, and care for the kids when they came home. Paying for everything was the mans responsibility.
If those days ever really existed outside of the artwork of Norman Rockwell, they are for the most part gone now. Women now make up almost half of the national workforce and, as the workforce expands, women will soon overtake men in numbers.
In North Carolina, women already comprise more than half the workforce. The 1980 census shows that of all workers in the state. 53.9 percfent were women. That percentage was up 10 points in 10 years and the state ranked eighth in the nation in this regard. Of all adult North Carolina women, 59 percent are employed full-time as compared to 74 percent of all North Carolina men.
Over the past dozen years, the size oi the states female workforce grew from 850,000 in 1970 to 1.3 mUlion in 1982, according to the U.S. Census. Projected out into the near future, that trend 1^ Gov. Jim Hunt to predict that over tlie next decade, two-thirds of all new workers in North Carolina will be women. The N.C. 2000 Commission has estimated that in the year 2000 some
where between 63 and 77 percent of the workforce will be female. 'That translates into two million workers.
' A labor shift of that magnitude must create ripples throughout society. A state conference on the mererging role of women in the ecwiomy is planned for Raleigh this f^l to discuss those ripples. Already available, however, is a rqjort from the Bush Institute for Child and
Family Policy which mentions some of the challenges this shift in workforce is creating.
With women working, modem day children dont get the parental attention previous generations received. So, there is pressure to restructure the typical workweek. State government has expanded its flextime and job-sharing options for working mothers and there

Strength For Today
What does the Bible teach about heaven?
In heaven Gods immediate presence is nianifested. 'The redeemed are there. To heaven Christ ascended after the resurrection, and there he reigns in power. Heaven is pictured in the Bible as a place of peace, joy, and life so abounding that the river of the water of life flows out from the throne of God himself. On each side of the river is the tree of life, bearing twelve manner of fruits, yielding
its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.
In heaven tears shall be wiped from all eyes, death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more ... And they (the saved) shall see (Gods) face, and his name shall be on their foreheads
Heaven will be a place of eternal light, vibrant living, joy and freedom from all handicaps by which we are bound on earth.
are pressures being brought to bear on private industry to do the same. Also, employers are being asked to provide day care service, and in some cases, to allow children to come to work with their parents.
Suggestions have been made that some of the day care squeeze on parents could be relieved if the public schools would enroll children at earlier ages. Already, there are a number of educators who feel we could be starting children in school earlier and many parents already pay for private preschool. (Conversely, there are those who think were starting children too early.) Preschool programs could satisfy both concerns. But it creates a real funding problem for the taxpayers.
The number of women in the workforce also raises questions about worker safety. Women of child-bearing age are now taking jobs which, because of environmental conditions, could prove dangerous to their unborn offspring. Some employers are refusing to grant such jobs to women but they then face sexual discrimination suits.
And, of course, the most serious question arises from the growing number of women who are woiicing to support a family. They dont have a husband to bring home the bacon. As this percentage of women in the workfoprce grows, and its already high, theres going to be pressure to raise the wages on jobs that were traditionally low paid.

Democrats Have The Advantage
WASHINGTON (AP) - Senate Democrats are enjoying math for the first time in years as they gear up their campaign to regain control of the chamber next year.
Republicans, who won the Senate in 1980, now hold a relatively thin 54-46 majority. So Democrats, viho omtrolled the Senate for more than 25 years continuously before that, need a net gain of only five seats to win the chamber back.
Mathematically, the Democrats have a built-in advantage. Of the 33 seats on the ballot in 1984, 19 are now held by Republicans while only 14 Democratic seats are up for grabs. Thus, Republicans go into the elections with five more seats to defaid than Democrats.
And the math recently has started looking even better to Democrats. Two
prominent Republicans Majority Leader Howard Baker of Tennssee and John Tower of Texas have now said they wont run again.
Both come from states in which there are strongDemocratic hopefuls - Democratic Rep. Albert Gore in Tennessee and former Rq>. Bob Krueger in Texas - and Democrats already are counting those states as likely pickups. Both have a history of electing Democrats to Cwigress.
By contrast, only one Democratic incumbent has announced he wont run again, Jennings Randolph of West Virginia, a state which also has a history of seiKling Democrats to Washingtm.
Republican sources report a widespread feeling of unease among Republican leaders in the Senate about the upcoming elections, although publicly th^ same leaders are predicting that the
iq)swing in the economy and the pcqju-larity of President Reagan could translate into another good year for Republicans. But it wont be without a fight. Again, the math is just wnmg for them.
In addition to the retiring members, at least three GOP incumbents are viewed to be in political trouble back home, or at least face close races: Jesse Helms of North Carolina, Charles Percy of Dlinois and Roger J^sen of Iowa.
None of the Democratic incumbents now looks as vulnerable, polls by Democrats and others suggest although tough races may be shaping up in Michigan, where Sen. Cart Levin is the Democratic incumbent, and Massachusetts, vrtiere Soi. Paul Tsmigas is seeking another term.
In Delaware, vihat could have been a spirited challenged to Sen. Joseph Blden,
the Democratic incumbent, appeared to vanish with Republican Gov. Pierre du Pont IVs recent decision not to hin against him.
Against this backdrop, there have been persistent rumors in the Senate of at least one other senior GOP incumbent ' jumping ship before reelection campaigns ^t under way.
Speculation that it might be Percy was quickly quashed the other day by aides, who claimed the Illinois Republican, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has no intentkms of making such an announce^t.
Meanvihile, Helms and Si. Strom > Thurmond, R-S.C., the 80-year-old (hairman of the Senate Judiciary Com- -mittee, both have held open Uk possibUh ty that they may not run again. Both are , expected to announce thdr decisions eariy next year, aides said..
Wheelchair-Bound, But Qualifies In SCUBA Field
ByCAROLTVER Reflector Staff Writer
Roy Pate was certified as proficient in SCUBA diving by the National Association of Underwater Instructors recently, culminating a year of practice of the sport which gives him the greatest freedom of movement Ive had since I was seven years old.
Pate, 32, originally from Goldsboro, has has been confined to a wheelchair because of rheumatoid arthritis since his early teens.
Im no different from anyone el^in my head, he said. Ive always had an adventuring sort of spirit and I think about things Id like to try. Something over a year ago I started thinking about how gravity seemed to be the most limiting factor on my physical movement. While theres nothing I can do to change that on land, I got to wondering about neutral buoyancy. Just how would it feel, I wondered, to have gravity let go of me to some extent and be able to use the

physical capacity I have more efficiently and effectively.
I went to see Coach (Ray) Scharf, who directs aquatic programs at ECU. He was very recq)tive to the idea -said hed a^ee to teach me if I could find some other persons proficient in SCUBA whod be willing to provide the extra assistance Id need.
Last fall Rick Flickinger and Wade Bunting assisted me. And this spring Id been training with je instruction of Bruce Shackleford, Dwight Erlichman and Sherrill Norman.
"1 found out once I started training in the ECU pool that Id been right. Its not that I can move my limbs any better in the water, but underwater,, with my
breathing, I can control my movement to a large degree. And the bouyancy that my wetsuit gives me is wonderful. I highly recommend this or some other aquatic activities to anyone with arthritis or any other crippling condition. The lack of stress on the body that you experience n the water is just exhiliarating!
Once he had graduated from the ECU pool to coastal outings, Pate discovered the beauty of the undersea world. I dont know what Our Maker had in mind when He was making the undersea environment, he said, but its entirely different from what he planned for dry land. Its awe-inspiring, a whole different world and I love it.
Diving, he has found, taxes his powers of concentration
and self-discipline. "You have to completely detach yourself from the cares of the day, think only positively and directly about what youre doing. You just cant give your mind permission to let your thoughts be scattered or you may find yourself in serious trouble.
Asked if he has experienced any fear of the water and of diving, he said, No, even though Im not even a very good swimmer, I really havent been afraid. I think I just knew I couldnt allow myself to be. 1 had two strikes against me - inexperience and my disability. If Id allowed fear to be a third strike, Id have been out. And I didnt plan to be out.'
The fearlessness and dedication that Pate exhibited in his quest to experience
deepsea diving help him deal with his physical disability. I dont even wish to be out of this wheelchair, he said. I used to and it caused me a lot of anguish. It was when I accepted that Id always be in it that I found I could get on with my life and do the things I wanted to do.
A graduate of East Carolina University, he was a campus leader in the efforts to make ECU and the Greenville community architectural barrier-free. Years ago when 1 first came to the ECU campus, there were many architectural and at-titudinal barriers for handicapped people to deal with, he said. Today, I can get around Greenville in my electric wheelchair just about anywhere I need to. And Ive come to believe that the only barriers a handi
capped person has now are those he or she creates with his or her own attitude. People are much more understanding and open than they used to be and ECU now has the most barrier-free state-supported school campus in the state.
Coach Ray Scharf said of his student. Ive learned to respect Roy Pates courage
and ability. He has an adventurous personality and heart. He never let his handicap stop him, never made excuses, always did whatever improvising was necessary to do whatever he needed to do to become a proficient diver. He now has a proficiency that will enable him to enjoy diving for many years to come.

Letter Of Resignation Is Prepared By Begin
ByBfARCUSELIASON
Associated Press Writer
JERUSALEM (AP) -Prime Minister Menachem Be^ wrote his letter of resignation Tuesday after elling his political colleagues, I cannot go on any longer.
However, it was still not clear when he would submit it to President Chaim Herzog.
Cabinet ministers who called on the 70-year-old prime minister in a last-ditch attempt to change his decision said they found him in his office writing his letter of resignation.
They asked him to delay sending it to Herzog for a few days, until they could choose a successor, and Begin promised to let them know by Wednesday morning whether he would hold up the letter.
The eight Cabinet ministers from Begins Herut (Liberty) faction of the Likud bloc were to meet later Tuesday to try to pick a successor.
The likeliest candidates appeared to be Foreign Minister Yitzhak Shamir, 68, and Deputy Prime Minister David Levy, 45, with former Defense Minister Ariel Sharon an outside possibility.
I think theyre trying to do it very fast, maybe today or tomorrow morning, said co?tion chairman Avraham Shapira.
Ronnie Milo of Herut said he expected a decision within hours.
Begin spent almost three hours meeting with members of his politick party and left his office without speaking to reporters. As his car sped away from his office building, he slumped in the back seat and a crowd of supporters chanted Begin, king of Israel behind be security fence.
Shlomo Lorencz of the Agudat Israel Party said Begin told his visitors over and over, I cannot go on any longer. He did not elaborate.
Begins spokesman Uri Porat told r^rters: The prime minister said explicitly that he intends to give the president of Israel his letter of resignation. It has not yet been decided when he will go to the president.
Shapira said Begin appeared determined to step down as soon as possible and was reluctant even to accede to requests that he delay for a few days. He was barely willing to do even that, said Shapira.
Ehud Olmert of the ruling Likud bloc said, All we asked the prime minister to do was to put off the implementation for a few days so that in the meantime we can establish new political facts and set up an alternative government.
had come from northern border settlements, the frequent targets of Palestinian shelling until Begin launched the invasion of Lebanon 15 months ago.
Down the street, a few members of the anti-Begin Peace Now movement maintained a quiet vigil, holding up their own placards urging Begin to Go to the president and submit his resignation.

NEW YORK (AP) - Stock prices nudged higher in lackluster trading today, extending Mondays late advance.
More than seven stocks rose in price for every six that fell in the midday tally on the New York Stock Exchange.
The Dow Jones average of 30 industrials, which reversed an early 9-point deficit to finish up 2.04 points Monday, climbed another 2.54 points to 1,196.65 at noon.
Analysts said that despite continued concern over ie course of interest rates, traders were encouraged Monday when the markets early setback was reversed.
Meanwhile, more signs emerged that the pace of economic recovery is slowing down, something that reduces the risk of a resurgence of sharply higher inflation and interest rates.
The government said Monday that sales of new single-family homes fell 6.5 percent in July, the first monthly decline since Feb-

Aquino's Killer ^eid Identified
MANILA, Philippines (AP) - The government today identified the man it said killed opposition leader Benigno Aquino and said he was a notorious "gun-for-hire employed previously by crime syndicates or subversives.
Chief military investigator Maj. Gen. Prospero Olivas said the man, who was gunned down by security forces immediately after Aquino was shot Aug. 21, was named Rolando Galman y Dawang.
The presidential palace said he was a member of a gang of robbers and car thieves and had been suspected of at least two murders last year.
Olivas said laboratory tests pointed to Galman as the man who fired the .357 Magnum allegedly used to assassinate Aquino at Manila International Airport.

The assailant is a notorious killer, a gun for hire and has reportedly been used by various elements including organized or syndicated crime or by subversive elements possibly for individual vengeance, or possibly for armed robber, car-napping, hijacking, bank holdup or kidnapping for ransom, said Olivas, the police chief of Manila.
Olivas gave rio motive for the killing, but his statements were in line with President Ferdinand E. Marcos comments shortly after the shooting. Marcos said he suspected the gunman was a contract killer hired by groups seeking to embarrass the government.
Aquinos allies have accused the government of involvement in Aquinos killing. Marcos denies the charge.

The wounded Included 14 Marines, one Italian sergeant and 70 Lebanese troops, police said.
Military officials said British troops in Beirut were sprayed with rifle fire and rocket-propelled grenades, the first time the British have come under attack in seven months of peacekeeping.
No one was injured in the attack and the British forces did not return the fire, they said.
Police said army troops and militiamen of Amal, Lebanons largest Shiite faction, resumed fighting in Beiruts southern suburbs at dawn after an ovemi^t lull.
Police said machine gun exchanges also flared on parts of the Green Line that divides Beirut into predominantly Christian and Moslem sectors.
Amal guerrillas had taken control of much of west Beirut, as well as intersections leading to Christian east Beirut. The militia recaptured several

Today, police said only two intersections reamined open to traffic between the two halves of Beirut.
The leftist newspaper As-Safir, which is close to the Amal leadership, said an agreement had been reached by President Gemayel and Amal on measures to defuse the confrontation.
The newspaper said the agreement included the return of the army to positions it held before the outbreak of fighting Sunday. Amal militiamen would evacuate the streets of west Beirut and abandon checkpoints they set up in the past two days, As-Safir said.
The Cabinet issued a statement calling on the Lebanese to unify all ranks and , stand by the gov- emments side. It urged the United States to continue all its efforts and carry out its commitments quickly to help restore peace and national sovereignty in Lebanon;
Shuttle Flies...
(Continued from Pagel) magnificent sight in daylight, was awe-inspiring at night.
In downtown Miami, 200 miles to the south, people on the roof of a five-story building saw the shuttle as a small red-orange glow. Others on the street below cheered.
As Challenger circled the Earth 184 miles high some of the conversation with the ground was relayed throu^ a communications satellite for the first time. One of the flints major tasks is to check out the orbiting Tracking and Data Relay Satellite system which promises, eventually, to give the shuttle round-the-world communications as well as serving as a switchboard for orbiting satellites.
The hi^ight of the shift has to be the first TDRS pass, said Jay Greene, the first flight director of the mission, fhe quality of communications, he said, was as good as any com weve had during the program.
President Reagan, in a message read to the astronauts, said; Good luck and may God go with you. He said that we acknowledge proudly the first ascent of a black American into space.
Among spectators at the press site was Sally Ride, who broke the gender bar on the last flight of Challenger just as Guion Bluford, an Air Force lieutenant colonel who flew 144 combat missions in Vietnam, is breaking the color line on this one.
It was still raining on Pad 39A when the astronauts climbed into the cabin they will occupy for the next six days until they land, at 12:40 a.m. Pacific Time, at Edwards Air Force Base in California next Monday, Labor Day.
Along with Truly, 45, a Navy captain, are pilot Brandens-tein, 40 and the three mission specialists, Bluford, 40, Dale Gardner, 34, and Dr, William Thornton, who at 54 is the oldest American to go into space.
Hardy folks, many in campers and recreation vehicles, parked beside highways, river banks and beaches for an unforgettable experience.
The lucky ones were among 45,000 guests invited by NASA to choice viewing sites on the space center. A number of black leaders, including congressmen, were in the VIP stands as a tribute to Bluford. Celebrities included former basketball star Wilt Chamberlain.
On Wednesday, Gardner and Bluford launch a communications and weather satellite for India. Also on board Challenger is an experiment for making pure drugs, 260,000 stamped envelopes for collectors, and six rats whose travel comfort is of Interest to scientists.
Bluford quickly set about activating the drug manufacturing process, which involves for the first time separating living cells, and reported he had completed the first test.
The astronauts will also test the ability of the shuttles 50-foot mechanical arm to move payloads with great mass, maneuvering a package that weighs 7,640 pounds on Earth around the cargo bay.
The early-morning liftoff time - and the middleK)f-the-night landing - were dictated by the need for Challengers crew to release the Indian satellite into a precise slot above the equator within radio range of a tracking station at Hassan, India.
IMF Is Looking For Loan Of $6 Billion
WASHINGTON (AP) -Pressed to increase aid to debt-ridden developing nations, the International Monetary Fund is negotiating with Saudi Arabia and several industrial nations for ^ $6.biIlion loan, officials say.
The United States hs hot been participating in the loan negotiations, which included West Germany, Japan, Switzerland and Great Britain, according to officials who spoke Monday on condition they not be identified by name.
Jacques de Larosiere, the funds managing director > held discussions with the Saudis and other potential lenders in Europe recently, said a monetary official who also did not want to be quoted by name.
The IMF is over-coirimltted by about $3 billion on its borrowed resources because of the growing demand for aid from developing nations, the official said. The fund makes loans to developing nations that agree to impose stringent measures to curb their economic problems. '
For information on voter registration, call the Pitt County Board of Elections at 758^683.
Earlier this year, fmance ministers representing the funds 146 member nations agreed on a plan to prevent default by debtor nations that could trigger intema-tk^al financial panic. The ministers devised a plan to add $32 bUlton to the loan fund by levying a special assessment on member nations.
A bill to raise the U.S. contribution to the IMF by $8.4 billion is still pending in Congress, where final approval is in doubt.

THE DAILY REFLECTORTUESDAY AFTERNOON, AUGUST 30, 1983
Nebraska Trounces Lions
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - For one game at least, Penn State has gone from the penthouse to the flophouse.
Fresh from their first-ever national college football championship, achieved last Jan. 1 in a 27-23 Sugar Bowl triumph over Georgia, the Nittany Lions wore their crown for the first time on the field of battle Monday night. Embarrassing is putting it mildly. Devastating is more" like it.
The final score of the inaugural Kickoff Classic was Nebraska 44, Penn State 6. It wasnt that close, not until the final 20 seconds when Penn State scored to avert what would have been its first regular-season shutout in 17 years.
"The 38-point whipping matched the worst loss ever suffered by a Joe Paterno-coached squad - a 49-11 rout by UCLA in 1966 - and left everyone wondering whether Nebraska, the No. 1-ranked team heading into the season, is that good or fourth-ranked Penn State is that bad. The answer probably lies somewhere in between.
I was kind of amazed at the way it went, said Nebraska Coach Tom Osborne. I dont think you can say the game, was a true indication of the strength of Penn State or the strength of Nebraska. I think the thing
snowballed. Im still concerned because Im not sure what the final score really means.
I dont know if were very good OT not. Were good, but I dont think were that good. I thought if we played well and they played well it would be a five- or seven-point game. I thought we could win strictly on Turner Gills experience.
Gill, a senior quarterback, is the ringleader of the dynamite Nebraska offense which led the nation a year ago with 518.6 yards a game. The Cor-nhuskers settled for 300 on the nose this time, with 298 coming in the first half when they built a 21-0 lead and allowed Penn State out of its own territory just once.
T thought wed beat them by two or three touchdowns, said Gill, who completed 11 of 14 passes for 158, scored the games first touchdown on a 1-yard sneak and fired a 19-yard scoring pass to Monte Engebritson on the final play of the opening period to make it 14-0. When we got a 21-0 lead, I knew then all we had to do was score one more touchdown. After we got 21 points I knew deep down we had the game.
Gill, who returned for his senior year rather than sign a baseball contract with the New York Yankees, directed scoring drives of 78 and 86 yards in the first period and teamed with backup Nate
Mason on a 66-yard march in the second quarter, capped by Masons 20-yard touchdown pass to Todd Frain.
The Nebraska defense chipped in with a score of its own early in the third quarter when linebacker Mike Knox made a juggling one-handed interception of a Doug Strang pass and returned it 27 yards for a touchdown. Dave Schneider kicked a 34-yard field goal later in the period. Mason darted 21 yards for a touchdown early in the final quarter and third-stringer Paul Miles dived across from one yard out with 2:06 left to cap an 88-yard drive and make it 44-0.
The losers finally scored when Dan Lonergan fired a 35-yard touchdown pass to Sid Lewis with 20 seconds remaining.
That just gave the Lions a respectable 227 yards through the air, but juniors Strang and Lonergan, who have a long way to go to reach the level of the departed record-setting Todd Biackledge, completed just 13 of 39 passes and were 3-for-16 in the first half for a meager 57 yards, with 39 coming on one play.
You cant get much worse than I was tonight, said Strang, who was 2-of-lO for 22 yards. Nebraska was a great team, but we didnt help matters, especially the way I played."

Injuries Force Shifts On Florida State Front Line
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Florida States seventh-ranked college football team has made wholesale shifts in its offensive line, once considered the Seminles deepest area, because of a series of pre-season injuries.
The Seminles open their season at home at 7 p.m. Saturday against East Carolina.
The most notable change is a move from center to guard by Tom McCormick, an Associated Press All-America honorable mention at center last year.
The 6-2,240-pound senior from Panama City will replace Parrish Barwick, a 6m, 285-pound sophomore from Crawfordsville, who is expected to be out for at least eight weeks with fractured foot.
Moving into the center position is Sam Restivo, a 6-0, 245-pound senior from Jamestown, N.Y. He had been pressing McCormick for the starting position and was expected to snap for punts and place kicks, anyway, as he did last year.
Barwick, who may be redshirted to preserve his eligibility for another year, was himself a replacement for Ricky Render, a 64, 255-pound senior from Newton, Ala.
Render had suffered a knee injury that initially was expected to end his playing days. But ba^ on a new, more optimistic medical examinaticm. Raider began rehabilitation Sunday.
Render isnt expected to be ready for the opener, but he could be ready to go the following week at Louisiana State, said Don Fauls, FSUs trainer.
Another change on the offensive line will see John lonata, a 6-3,265-pound sophomore from Dunedin, starting at tackle despite a badly bruised hand that will require the wearing of a cast.
lonata is a replacement for Jim Thompson, a 6-6, 235-pound junior from Midlothian, Va., who is expected to be out about thm weeks with a knee injury.
The juggling leaves only tackle Terry Widener, a 64, 265-pound senior from Donaldsonville, Ga., and guard Jamie Dukes, a 6m, 290-pound so^more from Orlando, in their original positions on the interior line.
Needless to say we are in a bind, said offensive coordinator Wayne McDuffie.
He said McCormick was moved because be is adaptable, intdligent and the personification of the team player.
If you ask me what 1 would rather play, I would rather play center, McCormick said. But 1 want to do what it takes to win.
Meanwhile, quarterback Kelly Lowrey is showing improvement following a slight shoulder dislocation last week. The 6-1, 225-pound senior from Lake City s^d be ready to start Saturday, quarterback coach Mike Kruczek indkated.
205 yards, mostly after the outcome was no longer in doubt.
Nebraska knew wed be weak in our skill areas, said Kenny Jackson, Penn States All-American wide receiver, who managed only four catches for 54 yards. We dont have a quarterback who can go out there with consistency. The only thing we can do is go back and try to improve.
With virtually no offense to speak of when it counted, Penn States heralded defense was unable to stem the tide.
I dont think our defense played too badly, Paterno said. I just think our offense couldnt get anything going. You dont beat Nebraska wiUi defense. You have to score some points. Unless you get some points, nobody is gv ag to handle these people.
Other schools know that if you take one thing away, weve got something else. You really cant stop Nebraska, said tailback Mike Rozier, who rushed for a game-high 71 yards on 16 carries and needs only 112 yards to break I.M. Hipps school record.
A crowd of 71,123 turned out at 76,891-seat Giants Stadium and saw Nebraska extend the nations longest major college winning streak to 11 games and avenge last-quarter losses to Penn State the last two seasons.
The Kickoff Classic, approved last January by the NCAA, counts as part of the regular season and is a benefit for the National Football Foundation to help pay the mortgage on the College Football Hall of Fame at Kings Island, Ohio.
Golf Pros Participate In Benefit
NORTH MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (AP) - More than 50 golf professionals took a day off from the pro tour to participate in a pro-am that raised more than $200,000 for fellow golfer Jack Newton.
The benefit tournament, held Monday at Bay Tree Golf Plantation, drew 56 professionals, including Jack Nicklaus, Bruce Devlin, Fuzzy Zoeller and Ben Crenshaw.
Proceeds will go to pay medical expenses for Newton, who was critically injured last month when he walked into a propeller on a small plane. The accident severed his right arm and injured his eye.
More than 12,000 people jammed onto the golf course to watch the pros and amateurs. Participants paid as much as $5,000 apiece to play in the tournament.
Other top golfers attending were Hal Sutton, John Cook, Bruce Lietzke, Bob Shearer, Tom Purtzer, Howard Twitty, Lon Hinkle, Ed Sneed, Bobby Watkins, and George Bums.
Devlin predicted Newton will recover from the serious injuries he suffered in the accident in Sydney, Australia.
Jacks a great competitor, and thats the reason hes alive. The average person wouldnt have come through that ordeal,Devlin said.
I watched Jack come up as an amateur, said Devlin. I think its fair to say that he did not have a lot of natural talent, but be was such a fighter that he always did weU.
Tournament officials said they would know in a day or two exactly how much money was raised.
Only one of the 56 scheduled professionals failed to show up. Jerry Heard of North Carolina had car trouble, and missed Uieteeoff.
At the last minute, area professional Harris DAntignac i^laced Heard and he and his four amateurs walked away with top honors on the Green course.
DAntignacs team of Orb Elam, J.B. Webster, Bill TiUet and Gene Hester won with a net score of 55.
The team of PGA pro Chip Beck, Dick Elliott, Wayne Livingston, Jerry Blount and J. Fitzgerald OConnor won top honors (the Gold course witha54.

Coaches Make Tough Decisions As NFL Teams Trim Rosters To 49
By The Associated Press Ask any National Football League head coach. The tou^est part of the job is taking back the playbook. They all received a break this year when the league increased the rosters from 45 to 49, but that did not make this years final cuts any easier to administer.
The last thing I needed today was a news conference, said the Houston Oilers Ed Biles, who Monday axed nose guard Daryle Skaugstad and guard Ralph Williams two of last years starters and tight end Walt Arnold. Im more concerned about the lives of the young men well have to cut.
Coach Joe Gibbs, who cut 10 Washington Redskins players to reduce his roster to the required opening-day limit, agonized over his dismissal of
running back Clarence Harmon.
It was a hard decision, Gibbs said. Its the one thing you dont like about this job., The coaches have been living with him day after day for three years. Its just a hard thing to do.
It would have been a lot more difficult had Harmon, the Redskins third-leading rusher last season, not been arrested this spring and charged with possession of cocaine. He continued to work with the team pending resolution of the case, carrying the ball just four times in preseason games.
Another coach wrestling with names Monday was Monte Clark, who was dismayed about letting punter Ray Stachowicz go in favor of rookie Mike Black. The three-year veteran from
Duke, Wake Forest Await Answers In Home Openers
By The Associated Press Duke and Wake Forest football coaches say that nagging questions about their teams readiness will be answered Saturday in their home openers against Virginia and Appalachian State, respectively:
Blue Devil coach Steve Sloan, isnt having to wait long to experience Atlantic Coast Conference competition. His teams season opener is a road contest against the Cavaliers.
It will be tough for us to open the season with a conference game, Sloan said at a news conference Monday. But, I have told our players that if youre a good team you can play/on the street comer at night and win.
Sloan also said the Blue Devils wont be looking past the Cavaliers, who are picked to finish last in the ACC.
I really believe that Virginia vrill have an improved defensive team, Sloan said. I have always had great respect for (Virginia) coach (George) Welsh and I admired the way in which his teams have always played tough football. The game is the 35th meeting between the two schools, with Duke holding a 23-11 edge. The Blue Devils defeated Virginia last season 51-17.
Sloan said his main concern going into the game is injuries.
I am very concerned about our kicking game from a standpoint of the coverage of punts and kickoffs, Sloan said. We still have not made a decision on whether John Tolish or Ken Harper will be
doing out kicking.
Still, Sloan has senior quarterback Ben Bennett directing the Blue Devil offense. Bennett, an All-American candidate, needs 3,009 yards to break the NCAA career passing record. He also needs 144 yards to become the all-time leader in the ACC for total yards, surpassing ex-Duke standout Leo Harts record of 6,267 yards.
Wake Forest has lost to Appalachian State only once in five meetings since 1900, but thats small consolation to Demon Deacon coach A1 Groh.
I think that at this stage, with Appalachian having a new coach, you have a situation where you dont have much idea what they are going to do, Groh said. But it helps us keep our focus on what we have to do to win.
Wake Forest ended last season in impressive fashion, giving powerful Gemson all it could handle before losing 21-17.
I feel that our players had a different image of themselves when they flew east (to Japan) than when they flew west (back home), he said. 'They have been able to maintain that image during the past eight months.
Quarterback Gary Schofield will led the Deacons against ASU. The 6-foot-2, 215-pound senior completed 212 of 376 pas^s for 2,380 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Michigan State was picked up by the Detroit Lions late last week after being cut by the Green Bay Packers.
We didnt have alot of time to make a decision. We just had the game Saturday to look at him, said Gark, who also traded wide receiver Tracy Porter to the Baltimore Colts for a 1984 draft choice. He just didnt seem to turn the ball over like he did in college.
Im certainly not knocking the guy. 1 just had to make a quick decision and Black has been here all year.
Bart Starr had so much difficulty choosing between 17-year veteran Jan Stenerud and rookie Eddie Garcia that he kept both placekickers.
Weve looked at our football team, and we feel that this was a move not only for the present, but for the future, the Green Bay Packers head coach said.-We likewise feel that we will not be seriously hurt ourselves by carrying two kickers as opposed to another player at another position.
Joe Danelo would feel a lot bettor if Coach Bill Parcells had shared Starrs attitude. The veteran ended a seven-year association with the New York Giants Monday when Parcells named rookie Ali Haj i-Sheikh as his placekicker.
The Giants ninth-round draft pick from Michigan won the job, Parcells said, because he is 22 years old, with youth, potential and production.
The Giants coach also is keeping rookie John Tuggle, the 335th and last player selected from this years 12-round college draft.
He can run, block and catch and he could play on special teams, said Parcells, who will start the season with eight rookies on the squad. I realized about three weeks ago that hed be here.
Tuggle, a 5-foot-ll fullback, is only the fourth final draft pick since 1970 to remain with an NFL team after his first training camp.
Three teams, the Minnesota Vikings, Pittsburgh Steelers and St. Louis Cardinals, withheld the announcements of their cuts until today in order to inform the players, who had Monday off. Because the players
werent there, we couldnt tell the players who were cut, Vikings spokesman Merrill Swanson explained. We feel we owe them the courtesy of telling them personally.
Among the other notable veterans cut was Cincinnati Bengals defensive back Mike Fuller, who needs seven punt returns to break the late Emlen Tunnells NFL record of 258. Fuller has been hampered with a knee injury.
Others included safety Benny Barnes by the Dallas Cowboys, tight end Riley Odoms by the Denver Broncos, quarterbacks Matt Robinson and David Humm by the Los Angeles Raiders, three-time All-Pro defensive tackle Louie Kelcher offensive lineman Russ Washington and defensive lineman Wilbur Young by the San Diego Chargers, running back Vagas Ferguson by the New England Patriots and offensive lineman John Yamo by the Seattle Seahawks.
The San Francisco 49ers cut lineman Cody Jones and punter Jim Miller and got Tom Orosz in a deal with the Miami Dolphins to fill Millers spot. Another trade sent veteran offensive tackle Charlie Getty from the Kansas City Chiefs to the Packers for a future draft choice.

Rice Slams Three HRs
By The Associated Press
Once again this season, Jim Rice is starring in the soon-to-ciose Boston Red Sox show.
And on Monday, he staged another remarkable perfor- manee.
Rice slugged three two-run homers - the final one in the top of the ninth inning - to lead the Red Sox to an 8-7 victory over Toronto and a split of their twi-night doubleheader with the Blue Jays.
I dont think about hitting home runs when 1 go to the plate, said Rice, I just try to hit the ball hard.
Rices effort, combined with a 2-for-4 effort in Torontos 5-1 first-game victory, gave him a major league-leading 33 home runs, along with a .302 batting average and 100 runs batted in.
He can hit,* commented Toronto Manager Bobby Cox.
Despite Rices best efforts, the Red Sox are lagging in sixth piace in the American
Lea^e East, 15 games behind Baltimore, as the final month of the season approaches.
In other AL games, Minnesota nipped Detroit 5-4 in 11 innings, Chicago squeaked by Texas 2-1, Baltimore trounced Kansas City 9-2, Cleveiand downed Seattle 6-4, and Seattle tripped Milwaukee 2-1.
Rices first two home runs came off Toronto starter Jim Acker. His first blast made it 2-0 in the first inning and the second pulied Boston within 5-4 in the sixth.
The first one was a slider and 1 didnt think Id hit it well enough to get it out, Rice said. The next one was over my head but I hit it hard enough.
Boston still trailed 7-6 when Wade Boggs led off the ninth with a double. Rice then homered again to pin the loss on Randy Moffitt, 6-2, who was the fourth Toronto pitcher of the game.
The Blue Jays bullpen has been getting roughed up lately, and Cox says his
nerves need some immediate relief.
You find someone who can get me three outs - even one out - and Ill consider him, Cox said.
Red Sox reliever Mark Clear got the win and is now 4-5.
In the first game, Jesse Barfield smacked two home runs and Buck Martinez added another solo shot for the Blue Jays.
Orioles 9, Royals 2 Scott McGregor continued his hot streak, as did Baltimore.
McGregor, 16-5, allowed eight hits in his llth complete game of the season as the Orioles won for the sixth straight time.
Baltimore has now won 13 of its last 16 and, coupled with Milwaukees loss, leads the Brewers by games in the ALEast.
Cal Ripken belted a two-run homer, his 20th, in the first inning to get the Orioles off to

My back was to the wall because I was the last pick, saidTuggie.
The 5-foot-ll fuilback out of California learned Monday that he was among 49 players on the New York Giants regular season roster.
Tuggle said Coach Bill ParceOs told him during the Giants third exhibition game with the Baltimore Colts that he had made the team, but he was apprehensive until the final cutdown was made.
It was after 1 had made a big block on a comerback. I knocked the guy over, just killed him, said Tuggle, a reserve behind starting fullback Rob Carpenter.
Waltrip Closes In
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Bobby Allisons lead was whittled away just a little further by Darrell Waltrip in the 1983 NASCAR Winston Cup Grand National standings following a victory in last weekends Busch 500 stock car race at Bristol, Term.
Allison now leads Waltrip by only 41 points, 3,178 to 3,137.
Also ranked in the top 10 are; Bill Elliott, 2,929; Harry Gant, 2,906; Richard Petty, 2,897; Neil Bonnett, 2,675; Dale Earnhardt, 2,630; Terry Labonte, 2,627, Joe Ruttman, 2,526, and Ricky Rudd, 2,506.
Waltrip, whose Busch 500 victory was his fifth this season and his sixth consecutive win at the track, leads the circuit in money winning with (451,725, while Allison is second with (395,775.

then.
Tuggie relayed to his wife, Stephanie, what Parcells said, but he also told her not to move their beiongings from their California home to New Jersey until it was made official.
He gained 1,813 yards on 434 carries during his college career, including ,438 yards on 143 carries as a senior.
He can run, block and catch and he could play on special teams, said Parcells of Tuggle. I realized about three weeks ago that hed be here.
Hes only 210 pounds, but he blocks like hes 250. He can play, said Carpenter, Tuggles adviser throughout training camp. Hes the strongest back here. Hes a better power blocker than me.
Tuggle is only the fourth final draft pick since 1970 to make an NFL roster. Offensive lineman Tyrone Mc-Griff started 10 games for the
Defensive back Tim Washington, the last pick of the 1982 draft, played one game for the San Francisco 49ers and then, after his release, played one game for the Kansas City Chiefs. In 1973, wide receiver Stanley Wade was on the Miami Dolphins taxi squad and then played briefly for the Chiefs in 1977.
Tuggle was one of eight rookies to make the club. First-round choice Terry Kinard, a safety from Clemson, topped the list that included two players from Louisiana State - defensive end Leonard Marshaii, the No. 2 pick, and tight end Malcolm Scott, the fifth-round selection.
Northeostern
Other draftees on the squad are guard Kevin Belcher of Texas-El Paso, a sixth-round choice; No. 8 pick Andy Headen of Clemsoif a linebacker; .and placekicker Aii Haji-Sheikh, a ninth-round choice from Michigan who ousted veteran Joe Danelo. Free agent tight end Zeke Mowatt of Florida State was the other rookie on the final roster.

By The Associated Press A shove from Tom Lasorda has pushed the Los Angeles Dodgers to the top of the National League West.
He really got us going, said pitcher Steve Howe, remembering a pep talk by the Dodger manager back on Aug. 10 in Cincinnati. Hes a great motivator.
Since Lasorda held that closed-door meeting with his team, the Dodgers have won 13 of 15 games, including Monday nights 6-1, 7-3 twinight sweq) of the New York Mets. 'That gave the Dodgers a one-game lead over the Atlanta Braves, who dropped out of first place for the first time since July 4 after a 7-5 loss to Chicago.
To have made up so much ground in such a short period of time makes me really proud of this club, sais Lasorda, whose team was as far behind as 6^ games on Aug. 13.
We left Cincinnati (the Dodgers salvaged the finale of a three-game series, 4-3, on August 11) a lot closer team. I realized something had to be done the way we were going and I did it. '
In other NL action, St. Louis tripped Houston 6-1, Pittsburgh defeated Cincinnati 2-1, Montreal blanked San Francisco 5-0 and San Diego defeated Philadelphia 6-5 in the opener of a doubleheader before losing the nightcap, 8-6.
Bob Welch and Tom Niedenfuer combined on a four-hitter and Ken
Landreaux knocked in two runs to lead the Dodgers in the first game. In the nightcap, Greg Brocks two-run homer keyed a four-run fourth inning for the Dodgers. The sweep, incidentally, gave the Dodgers 12 victories in their last 13 games.
The Dodgers are like a stick of-dynamite ready to explode, said Mets Manager Frank Howard. They still havent hit the way I think they can. But now theyre on a roll. I think its going to be a dogfight, right down to the last dayofthe season again.
Cubs 7, Braves 5
In Atlanta, Mel Hall knocked in five runs with two homers, including a grand slam, and Keith Moreland lashed a tie-breaking, two-run shot in the seventh inning to lead Chicago over the Braves.
Atlanta was ahead 4-0 when Hall connected against Braves starter Phil Niekro in the fifth inning with the bases loaded for his lOth home run of the season and the. first grand slam of his career. Then, after the Braves had regained the lead in the sixth. Hall opened the seventh with another homer.
Leon Durtiam followed with a walk and scored when, two outs later, Moreland powered a shot over the fence in left. It was Morelands 14th homer of the season, but only his first since July 13.
Bill Campbell, 4-7, gained the victory for Chicago but needed help from Lee Smith, who entered the game in the
Open Begins Circus Run
NEW YORK (AP) - The 14-ring circus known as the U.S. Open Tennis Championships has begun its two-week run at the National Tennis Center, which, appropriately enou^, was built on the site of the 1939 and 1964 Worlds Fairs.
The 13-day run of Americas premier tennis event began today with two left-handers, John McEnroe and Martina Navratilova, favored to walk away with the (120,000 first-place prizes. The total purse for the hard-court tournament, the third leg of tenniss Grand Slam, is a little more than (2 million.
The strongest field of any tournament in the world, the U.S. Open is in danger of iosing fourth-seeded Yannick Noah of France. The first Frenchman to win the French Open since 1946 when he captured the clay court crown in May is suffering from tentais in his right knee.
He has been undergoing ultrasonic treatments prescribed by Dr. Irving Glick, an orthopedic surgeon, and a determination on whether Noah will compete or not will be made following a practice session today.
Noah was handed a 42-day sus[^nsion following the French Open for skipping a match earlier this year in Dusseldorf, West Germany. Since the French Open, he has only played in one Volvo Grand Prix tournament, the Players International in Montreal, where he was upset by Peter Fleming in singes and withdrew from the doubles because of his knee.
The agile Frenchman pulled out of the ATP Championships the following week because of the chronic injury.
He origin^y was scheduled to play todays opening match, but was given an added days rest to see if the knee would respond to treatment. In practice sessions, he has been wearing a bandage on his ri^t knee and a built-up sole on his right shoe.
Others who have been forced to withdraw have been seventh-seeded Kevin Curren of &uth Africa and three of the worlds top women players: Bettina Bunge of West Germany, four-time U.S. Open winner Billie Jean King and Evonne Goolagong of Australia.
Besides their opponents, the 256 players evenly split in the mens and womens singles who started this fortnight-long run also will face the concrete and asphalt complex that sprawls in the flight path of New Yorks LaGuardia airport, the cacophony of the Long Island Railroad, the elevated subway train and the adjacent expressway.
Add to that the heat and humidity that normally envelops New York at this time of year and a world-class tennis player on the other side of the net turns into just a minor obstacle to be endured and overcome in the worlds richest tennis tournament.
It may be the toughest tournament in the world to win, considering the strength of the entry and the weather, said Slew Hester, the former U.S. Tennis Association president who engineered the move of the U.S. Open from the private enclave of the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills to a slice of greenery in the New York borough of Queens. If you put a thermometer on the court, it would be hotter than Wimbledon or Paris on the average.
I think the National Tennis Center is lust as American as apple pie. Its not Wimbledon because we dont have royalty.*
It is American because we have all the people, Hester said. Some of them, in my mind, are not ready for tennis. Theyre nqt entitled to be part of a tennis crowd because theyre boisterous and they dont wear their shirts. But this county was a melting pot, and this tournament is strictly American in the same way.
Or as Australian-born Don Candy, who now coaches Pam Shriver, put it: This tournament is a two-week bonfire.
Or as defending mens champion Jimmy Connors, the No. 2 seed, said of the crowd: Theyre crazy, just like I am. I love it.

Rogers Gets His Chance At Tech
By TOM FOREMAN Jr.
AP Sports Writer
ATLANTA (AP) - Stu Rogers has spent the iast several months throwing a ball and he doesnt plan to let up now, e^ially since hes Georgia Techs starting quarterback.
The Miami native had been relegated to three years of backup duty at Georgia Tech while Mike Kelley and Jim Bob Taylor tried unsuccessfully to raise the Yellow Jacket fortunes to respectability.
Taylor succeeded as Tech climbed to 6-5 in 1982 after successive one-victory seasons under Bill Curry. As for Rogers, he completed 12 of 30 passes with three interceptions.
Now, Rogers has a chance to lead a team in its first shot at the Atlantic Coast Conference title.
I just want to quarterback a winning team, Taylor said. We want the chance to win the ACC and perhaps go to that one more extra game. 1 just want to win.
When Rogers wasnt tossing footballs in spring drills, he was firing fastb^s for the Yellow Jacket baseball team. In one outing, he twirled a no-hitter against Ball State. But he saw the need to concentrate on his football career after Gfeorgia Tech recruiters brought in three freemen to accompany the other two already in camp. Given the three previous years of bench time, it looked a little bleak.
The feeling to quit has been there plenty of times. 'There were times when I thought it just didnt look good for me, Rogers said. I just wasnt ready to quit, so I stuck it out. Things got better and better.
His dedication is more intense. Two years ago, he skipped spring football drills for baseball. With a combination of daytime practices and ni^t-time baseball this ^r-ing, Ro^ was able to enjoy both sports and not lose out on either career.
I had to be there if I wanted the starting job. I couldnt afford not to be there
and expect to start, he said.
Rogers has adequate help in the backfield from junior tailback Robert Lavette and fullback Ronny Cone. Wide receiver Michael Harrington suffered a broken kneecap but is expected to return in four weeks. But Rogers has also been working on bis own game, making sure he can contribute his ^are.
This year, I recognize more from the standpoint of defenses, their philosophies and what we can do with our offense. Thats helped tremendously, he said. I can read defenses a lot more quickly when I did when I was a freshman.
Curry has noticed the difference, too.
Stu Rogers was on the spot last spring because we knew we had some real good freshmen coming in. He just had a great spring, then he came out this summer and threw on his own, Curry said. We thought he was throwing the ball extremely well and hes done nothing so far to indicate otherwise. Rogers is ahead on merit.

Liberty's 'Expertise' Downs Courageous
NEWPORT, R.I. (AP) -The Courageous camp called it their mistake, and the Liberty people thought it was just old-fashioned expertise that allowed their boat to win in the Americas Cup trials.
But the dominating factor Monday was the winds.
The wandering light-to-nothing zephyrs forced the defender race committee to call off the match after Liberty and Pennis Conner canie from behind to head
HOGAN TALKS NEW YORK (AP) -Legend has it that golfer Ben Hogan never talked during a golf tournament.
Another great golfer, Sam Snead, refutes that. Any time 1 played a round wiUi him, he talked to me frequently but he always said the same thing: Youre away, Sam.
Courageous and John Kolius at the third mark.
And for the challengers, it was worse.
The fleet Australia 11 led Britains Victory 83 by big margins around five marks in iheir race, but time ran out before they could finish and claim a victory.
Liberty slipped ahead to a one-minute, 22-second lead at the third mark which turned into the margin of victory as the race committee abruptly ended the staling in the bizarre wind conditions.
It was pretty grim, said Kolius of a race in which he led at the first two marks only to run into a dead air pocket and see Liberty slide past and take over the advantage.
We got real conservative, he said. We decided to jibe to get between them and the mark. We jibed across and
went right into a hole where the wind died.
You just cant get conservative here.
But Kolius said he believes his boat, cup champion in 1974 and 1977, is the equal of Liberty and has a fair chance to defend again this time.
You are going to see some pretty good races here, he said. He is going a little faster now and were pointing a little higher. Were closing in.
The skipper said ' Courageous may have an edge over Liberty - When it gets real sloppy we are a bit better. She chops right through that stuff while Liberty hobbyhorses a bit.
John Marshall, sail trimmer on Liberty, said Conner, who won the cup three years ago, made the right moves Monday.
1 think Dennis experience paid off a lot today, he commented. We wanted to stay as close as possible...
Courageous had led at the start by three seconds and expanded that to 23 seconds at
the first turn and 39 at the second.
Liberty, 10-6 in this series, and Courageous, 9-9, resume their races today, continuing until one is chosen to defend the old cup in the cham
pionship finals beginning .Sept. 13.
The washout of the challenger race was a break for the British boat which was behind more than six minutes at one point in the race.
Australia 11, with a 44-5 record under skipper John Bertrand, and Victory '83. 31-18 with Rodney Pattison and Lawrie Smith, will try again today to begin their best-of-seven series for the
right to challenge in the September finals.
The winds in overcast, rainy Rhode Island Sound Monday wandered from south to east and from zero strength to about 11 knots.
Bullets' Backs Cause OptimismBy WOODY PEELE Reflector Sports Editor
J AMESVILLE -Jamesville High School has a backfield that lives up to its nickname - the Bullets. And Coach Jerry Godley is hopeful that by the time the shooting stops, the Bullets will have captured the 1983 Tobacco Beltl-A Championship.
The Bullets are being picked by the rest of the Tobacco Belt as the team to beat this season
mainly due to the fact that they return a potent backfield. However, Godley says that the offensive line is young and untested, and the key to the Jamesville success lies therein.
After finishing with a 5-5 record last year, the Bullets got the nod for the league leadership thanks to having quarterback Richie Ange and running backs Matthew Moore and Carlton Rodgers back.
t-Jamesville Bullets
The Jamesville Bullets open the 1983 season in a non-conference game at Bath Friday night. Members of the squad are; (first row, L-R) Neal Lilly, Kenneth James, Timothy James, Carlton Moore, Chris Bryant, Dean Hayes, Terry Perry, Greg Bell, Tony Hale, Greg Hardison; (second row) Richie Ange, Peewee Groover, Chris Jones,
David Bembridge, Arthur Duggins, Carlton Bell, Michael Francis, Keith Leggett, John Hagen, James Anthony, Maurice Moore; (third row) Mike Arnold, Earl Bowen, David Biggs, Jacque Ruffin, Tracy Peele, Wilson Lohom, Whit Brown, Carlton Rodgers, Matthew Moore, Thyron Williams. (Reflector photo)
Ange led the conference in touchdown passes and total offense, running and passing for a total of 1,276 yards.
Moore, meanwhile, rushed for over 1,000 yards, while' Rodgers picked up something over 800 yards.
But, the key to any successful offense lies in the ability of the offensive fine, and Godley feels that the line is a young one. Were really a young team. We have only four seniors, and one of them is a transfer from Greenville (Timmy Norris) who didnt play last year to my knowledge.
Weve got only two starters back in the offensive line, and both of them are moving to different positions. Hopefully well come around but were very inexperienced there.
Jamesville held its preseason scrimmage against 3-A Plymouth, and scored four times against the Vikings, while allowing only one late score. But our people got a beating in the game. Richie had a tough time of it and our backs got beat up bad. Weve got to protect the quarterback better- and open better holes for the backs if we are to be successful.
Whit Brown, who missed most of last year with a knee injury, will handle the center duties, with Chris Jones and David Bembridge at the guards. Pee Wee Groover and Thyron Williams will be the tackles. David Biggs, who was all-conference last year, returns at tight end, while Terry Perry returns at split end. Greg Hardison is also back.
holdig down the wingback position.
Defensively, the Bullets may be stronger. Again, the whole backfield returns, and there is fairly good experience up front. Ange and Hardison return at safety, with Neil Lilley and Moore handling the corner positions. The linebackers are both back in Biggs and Rodgers, who was an all-East selection at the spot. Jones and Brown anchor the outside positions.
Only one returnee appears in the offensive line, Williams, who moves from nose guard to tackle. Groover takes over at nose guard, with Mitchell Reason joining Williams at a tackle s^t. Reason, however, will not be eligible to play this Friday night in the season-opener, having just retported to practice after a trip to Europe. Jocque Ruffin played the spot in the scrimmage, but is currently sidelined with an injury, as is Earl Bowens, an offensive lineman.
Our kicking game should be okay, Godley said. Ange will handle the kickoff duties this year, and has looked good in practice so far. He also will handle the punting duties, a job he did well last year, averaging 43.1 yards a boot.
As to placements - well, Godley doesnt worry about that. We have to run or pass, he said.
While Godley feels that his Bullets can be atop the league at the end of the year, he feels that there are several others with legitimate claims also.
Bath is still going to be very competitive. They had
the tradition and they beat a pretty good Rosewood team the other night. They have a cousin of Bubba Waters in the backfield now who may be just as good as he was. Creswell is going to be strong too. They are humongous. Mattamuskeet will be strong with Harry Burrus, and if you want to pick a dark horse, its probably Chocowinity. Theyve been working hard on a weight program and have come a long way.
For the Bullets to be on top, however, the line is oging to have to come through. And with eight conference games to play, the learning time is short.
Jamesville will get a chance to test itself early, however, playing a non-conference game against Bath this weekend as it opens the season.Swim Club Awards

Promotion: Dialing The Godfather
INCIDENT AT ABC - Police remove ao unidentified handcuffed individual from the building housing ABC News* offices in downtown Washingfton Monday evening. Officers at the scene said a young man, apparently armed with a small-caliber pistol, was apprehended inside the building. (AP Laserphoto)
ByPREDROTHENBERG APTeleviskm Writer NEW YORK (AP) -Maybe youre watching the third part of The Godfather on NBC tonight because a raspy voice over the phone made you an offer you couldnt refuse.
So you finally called your Godfather, good begins the recorded message on a special 900 number. I would consider it a personal favor if you would watch the film and then if you made enemies they would become my enemies as well...
Now you must excuse me please. Im late to attend the' funeral of a very close friend. It seems he was watching another network and his television set exploded. Very strange. Thank you for calling.
Hardly your normal hard sell. But you can expect the unexpected from NBC promotions boss Steve Sohmer, whose spots often are better than the programs hes pushing.
'Mr. Mom' Zoomed To
Top Of Movie Charts
There are two neat things about the Godfather character, says Sohmer, now in charge of NBCs daytime programming, in addition to his promotional responsibilites. Hes very polite, though powerful, and hes got an unmistakable voice. This lent itself to a creative approach.
NBC ran two TV segments identifying the ^ial [rfione number last Wednesday, and Sohmer says 26,000 SOcent calls were made nationwide that day. The telephone company reported overloads in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Atlanta.
This week, NBC starts another phone gimmick. Callers dialing 1-900-40SMITH can hear from a talking orangutan who happens to be the star of NBCs new comedy Mr. Smith.
Since arriving from CBS last summer, Sohmer has done more than arrange for . phony phone calls. His campai^ poking fun at the competition created a big fuss a year ago, and similar promotional messages are running now.
In one, a J.R. Ewing lookalike is lounging in his pool, when hes attacked by a shark. Just when you thought it was safe to go into TV again, says the announcer. NBCs Manimal, about a man who turns
himself into all manner of fish and fowl, will be on Friday nights against CBS' Dallas.
Another ^t takes aim at ABCs Saturday night leader, The Love Boat. An ornery grandmother from NBCs new series, The Rousters, which is set in a carnival, shoots the daylights out of model ships in a carnival
Jamie Shuns
game called Sink the Love Boat.
Sohmer says he only uses this approach when a new show is up against an incumbent that has a level of vulnerability. He never tried a knock campaign when he was promotions chief at CBS. It didnt fit there. CBS is the leader in prime time, and were the hungry, eager underdog.
CBS isnt amused by NBCs tactics, and officials there believe it might turn off audiences. Sohmer con-

PONTIAC, 111. (AP) -Actress Jamie Lee Curtis worries that people in this central Illinois community expect her to drive around wearing leopard skin just because shes a movie star -but thats not who I am. The 24-year-old daughter of Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh arrived early to prepare herself for filming Grandview USA, a li^t comedy-romance about the owner of a demolition derby, played by Ms. Curtis, a hii school valedictorian and a demolition derby driver.
Im here two weeks early to meet people, to drive the streets of Pontiac, Ms. Curtis said. Every day Im getting closer to the character.
Wearing bluejeans, sandals and a long-sleeved T-shirt, she went into a local restaurant. She said she was worried she wouldnt appear glamorous or flashy enough to satisfy the image people have of Hollywood stars.
I want people to realize that Im just me. I think people I expect me to drive around wearing leopard skin. Thats not who I am. I h(^ they wont be disappointed. Ms. Curtis first purchase in town was an old Chevrolet, complete with rust spots and Illinois license plates.
Actor Troy Donahue will have a supporting role in the film, but Uie names of the two male stars have not been announced.
tends that viewers know its competitive fun, not nasty attacks.
We want to communicate that were not dealing with holy orders. This is an entertainment business, he says. We also tip our hats to the success of those shows. We have J.R. saying Friday night is sewed i^, and Seven years and still afloat for theLove Boat.
Kicking the competition in the shins had mixed results last year. Our two principal successes were with Knight Rider and The A-Team, says Sohmer. But 1 was disappointed in the tune-ins for Cheers and Taxi.
Sohmers current cam-pai^ for The A-Team capitalizes on the pq)ularity of the shows Mr. T. In one spot, Mr. Ts Mohican hairdo is sported by a poodle, businessman and blushing bride.
Sohmers methods may be rubbing off on one competitor. ABC has a promotion in which The Fonz (Henry Winkler) of Happy Days appears with T.K. Carter, who plays a genie on the new series, Just Our Luck. Carter transforms a Mr. T lookalike into a midget.
The A-Team out-rated its competition, Happy Days, last season, and Sohmer welcomes more suc
cesses - and competitive knocks - for the third-rated network.
Nothing would give me more pleasure, he says

LOS ANGELES (AP) -Burt Lancaster is not marching up and down the aisles yet, but hes progressing so well from his quadruple bypass heart surgei7 that hes still scheduled to begin a new film next month.
The 69-year-old actor, winner of an Oscar in 1960 for his portrayal of an evangelist in Elmer Gantry, underwent the operation Friday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
He has been moved out of the cardiac intensive care unit where he has been since the surgery, his secretary, Sandie Wisenthal, said Monday. He had gotten out of bed and walked to the chair. Hes not marching up and down the aisles yet, but they are real pleased with his progress.

GOREN BRIDGE
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) - The gap is narrowing between black and white students scores on standard achievement tests, says a University of North Carolina psychologist.
Dr. Lyle Jones, alumni distinguished professor of psychology, presented the \results of his study Monday at the annual meeting of the American Psychological Association in Anaheim, Calif.
The study shows a steady lessening of the differences between average scores of blacks and whites in tests that measure both verbal and mathematical skills. The probe is based on tests given at ages 9, 13, 17, 18 and 22 and included the National Assessment of Educational Progress exams, the Scholastic Aptitude Test and the Graduate Record Examination.
On subjects in which white children have improved, black pupils have improved more, said Jones. On subjects in which achievement scores for whites have declined, black students scores have fallen less.
The consistency of these trends in National Assessment of Educational Progress exams... suggests that a further reduction in the
No Funeral For Atheist
GROnOES, Va.(AP)-A prison inmate has become the first person to be buried in what its founder calls the nations only cemetery for atheists.
Frederick Conways body, wrapped in clear plastic and bound with quarter-inch rope, was unceremoniously taken from a pickup truck Monday and dragged through about 50 yards of woods to its final resting [dace.
Arnold Via, founder of the American Atheists Infinite Cemetery and the state director of American Atheists, cut the plastic shroud from Conways naked body before rolling it into the grave.
' There were no final words, or^ coHin for Conway. State of^ials said the 34-year-old NMcdk man died of cancer while serving a prison term.
Via, who said Conway was a monber of the Prison Ath^ League, recorded the funeral with a movie camera.
A 1963 penny was dropped mto the grave before the body was covered. Via said the coin may help date the burial, if future aKbaeologists stumble anss the grave.
The cemetery, near Vias hone, is a wooded l-acre Mffcel atxHit one mile west of gliwianriftah National Park.
' There are no fences around ihe cemetery and no msmiment or sign gracing its eRjUrance. A small foot path, littered with an old tire w two, leads to Conways grave.
\
black-white average differences for these test scores will be seen in the future, said Jones.
Statistics showing the black improvement vary and depend on the tests, subjects and students ages, he added. Thus, its not possible to state a simple percentage denoting black gains although in some cases the differences have been halved.
For example, blacks bom in 1953 scored 20 percent fewer correct answers than whites on the verbal skills section of the NAEP exams. But black children bora in 1970 had only 10 percent fewer correct answers than whites on that section.
The reasons for the differences between blacks and whites rate of improvement arent clear, said Jones. They might include such programs as Project Head Start, public school integration, affirmative action and educational television, he said.
But Jones added that blacks still lag behind whites in overall test performance.
While recent progress in average achievement levels of black students has been dramatic, we should not lose sight of the continuing large average achievement differences between white and black children, he said.
One problem apparently is that black students dont take enou^ courses in such basic subjects as
mathematics, he said.
Our findings strongly support the hypothesis that an effective way to improve mathematics achievement levels is to encourage black studens to take more math courses in high school, said Jones.

There was great excitement recently in New Orleans in the final of the Grand National Team Championship between Atlanta and San Francisco. With one hand to play, San Francisco led by 2 International Match Points, and this was the final deal.

continuation and led a diamond to his partners ace to get another club ruff.
The defenders continued with ace of spades, on which declarer dropped the king, and a spade ruff. A club was ruffed with the ace of trumps, but declarer was able to pitch his last spade on this trick, so he ended up down three for a loss of 150 points. Had declarer won the ace of clubs at trick one and led a trump, he could have held the set to one trick.
In the other room, the San Franciscan in the West seat opened the bidding with one club and Larry Gould of Atlanta became declarer at two hearts. If he went down no more than two tricks, the match would be tied; if he went down only one or made the contract, Atlanta would win.
Here tbe opening lead was the singleton spade. East won the ace and shifted to a club. After much thought, declarer decided that he could make his contract if East started with a doubleton club, so he, too, ducked. Now it went ace of clubs, club ruff, spade ruff, club ruff, spade ruff, and declarer still had to lose a trick to each of the two red aces. So it was down three here as well, and San Francisco retained the title it had won in 1982.

Organized Labor's Membership Sags; Role Fading
By MERRILL HARTSON APUbor Writer
The American labor movement is in trouble.
The holiday solidarity that will mark Labor Day 1983 masks problems that go deeper than the recession and will not be solved by economic recovery. They range from forei^ competition to automation to new kinds of industry.
For example:
-Only 20 percent of American workers belong to labor unions, down from a peak of 35 percent after World War II.
-Major labor contracts signed in the first half of this year contained average annual wage boosts of 2.7 percent - the smallest increase in the 15 years the government has been keeping statistics on the subject.
-Wage concessions and contract givebacks have become routine in settlements over the last 18 months.
-Unions are not adapting quickly to the Information Age; they are failing in efforts to organize high-technology workers.
-The drop in membership, combined with the large number of unemployed union members, has hit the treasury of the labor movement. Unions themselves are laying off staff.
It is 90 years since Samuel Gompers preached that unions wanted more justice and less revenge.
Todays labor leaders still demand justice as they prepare for union rallies and celebrations in some 140 cities across the country over the holiday weekend.
Seeking to regain selfesteem in an era of hard times, big labor has selected the battle cry: We Will Be Heanl!
The Labor Day observance has been dubbed Solidarity Day III by the union leadership, whose blueprint for a labor recovery hinges on Nov. 6,1984, and election of a president considered friendly to the union cause.
To that end, the AFL-CIO hierarchy approved a political strategy in August that seems sure to bestow labors endorsement on former Vice President Walter F. Mndale.

The rank-and-file seems to be marching in political cadence - much more so than In 1980, when more than 40 percent ignored the exhortations of their leaders and voted for Ronald Reagan for president.
Ironically, however, Reagan may have helped the labor movement.
If there hadnt been a Ronald Reagan, we would have had to invent one, says Kenneth T. Blaylock, president of the American Federation of Government Employees.
Reagan, he says, has un-wittin^y given the labor movement more unity than it has seen in five decades. Blaylock was referring in part to the presidents firing of 11,500 unionized air traffic controllers, who undertook an illegal strike against the government in August 1981.
But the holiday celebrations and political planning only camouflage the problems.
The once-mighty International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, which remains outside the AFL-CIO, accepted givebacks to the unionized trucking industry in early 1982, and more recently sanctioned a relief rider to the National Master Freight Agreement, which would turn money back to management.
Similar concessions have been granted by a host of other unions.
Major labor contracts reached in the first half of this year netted an average pay raise less than the rate of inflation as 25 percent of some 1.2 million workers took pay cuts and 20 percent had no wage gains. Pay raises averaged 0.9 percent in the first year of the new contracts.
During negotiations in 1980 involving the same sets of workers, the unions had won average raises of 6.7 percent each year over the life of the pacts and 8.4 percent in the first year.
Money is not the only issue.

Prosecutor Protected
Says
By
Green Statute
NEW FiiRN, N.C. (AP) -Lt. Gov. Jimmy Green could not be charged with crimes a former employee has accused him of committing because a five-year statute of limitations has expired, says a federal prosecutor.
Assistant U.S. Attorney J. Douglas McCullough made the statement Monday, according to a story published today by The Fayetteville Times.
Meanwhile, testimony ended Monday in a pretrial hearing to determine whether the former Green employee, Sandy White, should stand trial on arson charges. U S. Magistrate Charles McCotter said it may take two weeks for him to rule on whether White could be prosecuted.
White was charged in July 1982 with arson stemming from the burning of Clarkton Farmers Exchange. He was granted immunity from prosecution in exchange for testimony against others involved with the case But federal agents said subsequently that White lied to them in several pretrial interviews and now are trying to have his immunity revoked. Hes already pleaded guilty to counterfeiting and is serving a four-year prison term.
According to FBI documents submitted as evidence last week during Whites hearing. White told agents that numerous illegal activities had taken place at Greens tobacco warehouses. Green is a Bladen County resident.
White has been quoted as saying he did Greens dirty work, although Green has not been charged on the federal level.
White, who managed some of Greens farms and leaf warehouses during the 1970s. reportedly said the alleged violations took place between
1975 and 1977 although federal officials didnt learn of them until last year.
The statute of limitations for crimes described by White is five years, and Green thus coidd not be charged with them even if the government had enough evidence, McCullough told
the Times.
Green, expected to run as a Democratic candidate for governor in 1984, was indicted June 21 on state bribery charges stemming from the FBIs Colcor probe into alleged corruption in southeastern North Carolina. A trial date has not been set.
its 525,000 American Telephone & Telegraph Co. members off the job in August in a contract dispute over not only wages, but also job security and the replacement of humans with machines.
And while the tentative contract settlement accepted by the leadership of the CWA and two smaller AT&T unions included a pay raise, it also included a company promise to spend $34 million in the next two years retraining workers whose jobs are made oblete. AT&T also agreed to substantial severance benefits fowo smaller AT&T unions included a pay raise, it also included a company promise to spend $34 million in the next two years retraining workers whose jobs are made obsolete. AT&T also agreed to substantial severance benefits for workers forced to leave because of new technology.
Noting the rapid acceleration of automation in the auto, heavy equipment, oil refining and shipping industries, Rex Hardesty of the AFL-CIO calls the AT&T settlement a demarcation in terms of retraining.
The problem dramatized by the telephone company strike wont go away, however. A recent Ford Foundation study, Not Working: Unskilled Youth and Displaced Adults, concluded:
Unlike past recessions, many plants currently closed are not expected to reopen as the economy recovers. Those that do reopen will be forced by increased international competitipn to employ fewer workers and to rely as much as possible on automated systems.
Fewer workers mean fewer members for unions. And as milliiHis of bluenmllar workers hit the unemployment lines, they sU^ped paying union dues.
The ranks of AFL-CIO-affiliated unions have contracted by 1.2 million since early 1981 - from 14.9 million members to 13.7 million. This spelled financial hardship for the national labor federation, vidiose income for the most part comes from the 27 cent-a-member per capita dues payment sent to Washingtra each month by the 96 affiliated unions.
Federation Secretary-Treasurer Thomas R. Donahue hasnt ruled out asking the AFL-CIOs convention in October to approve another increase in per capita dues, labor officials say.
The AFL-CIO managed to . avert large-scale layoffs at its Washington headquarters by enticing scores of veteran
staff employees to take early retirement. Other unions, such as the steelworkers, simply gave out pink slips.
Ive lost 35,000 (members) this month, says William Winpisinger, president of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers. Were hanging by our fingernails.
Weve lost about 80,000 (members) because of import competition, says Sol Chaikin, head of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union.
The AFL-CIO is not alone in loss of members. The Teamster membership has plunged from 2.3 million in 1979 to 1.9 million today. Layoffs in the coal industry reduced the ranks of the United Mine Workers of America by 45,000 last year; membership stands at about 120,000. Among the major non-affUiated unions, only the National Education Association, with 1.7 million
members, is thriving. '
Labor has won less than half of all union certification elections in recent years.
Moe Foner, a veteran activist with District 1199, the health care workers union in New York, says young workers are not aware of the bitter struggles of early 20th century that led to the laws giving legitimacy and protection to unions. Many of these things are taken for granted today, he says.
Union organizers, Foner says, must be better prepared for people asking and demanding (information) about what unions can do for them.
In addition to the membership loss caused by the long, business slump and the decline of such industris as autos, steel and rubber, the labor movement has also encountered difficulty in organizing workers in high technology, banking, insurance and other ^ay-collar and whiteK^llar fields.
The AFL-CIO leadership clings to the hope that it can restore the strength that it has enjoyed for decades in old line manufacturing industries even if its best organizing opportunities today are in such areas as service and high-technology industries.
Were not interested in a society in which McDonalds (the hamburger chain) employs more people than U.S. Steel, AFL-CIO President Lane Kirkland has said on many occasions.
But there is a new marketplace. Organized labor is discovering that the problems go beyond Americas borders, that competitive pressures faced by U.S. businesses with sales in overseas markets can hit close to home. The collective bargaining strategies employed in the past have become outmoded and the old weapons of labor - like the strike - dont always work.
