Pitt Responds To Call For Aid At Christmas

By CAROLTVER Reflector Staff Writer

Pitt Countians open their hearts to the poor and disabled at Christmas.

Area agencies and benefactor entities report tremendous response to every appeal on behalf of the needy, both in terms of volunteer effort and money.

The Salvation Army reports that more than 600 families were served through the Army this year. Some received food; some toys; some food and toys. Every nursing, rest and family care home in the area was visited during December and gifts were taken to each resident.

The ladies, this year, received birthstone rings, Mrs. Ronald Davis said, and they just loved them. The rings were part of a package of toilet articles packaged for the Army by cosmetic firms which contributed the items. The men received after-shave and other toiletries.

Other institutions visited included the Pitt County Rehabilitation Center, The Corrections Center at Maury, the Walter B. Jones Alcoholic Rehabilitation Center, the Flynn Home and the Adult Developmental Activity Program.

Mrs. Davis estimated that probably more than 100 members of the Salvation Army congregation, Salvation Army Auxiliary members, and others have participated in the visiting, the manning of the kettles into which shoppers drop donations, the packaging of gifts, etc. Toy giveaway days were Wednesday, Thursday and h riday of last week.

The elderly and disabled have been remembered so well by the community this year that, in addition to gifts for every resident of a nursing, rest or family care home, the elderly and disabled section of Pitt County Social Services has been able to set up a special emergency fund. Persons who have crises through the hard winter months that will no doubt follow Christmas will be supplied with ful, food, etc., as long as the fund lasts.

Blood

If Can Be True 'Gift Of Life'

ByMARYSCHULKEN Reflector Staff Writer

On Dec. 3, Jesse Joyner of Farmville says Santa Claus paid him an early visit.

On that day a construction accident left Joyner with neurological and internal injuries and he says the 20 units of blood he received during surgery and his recovery period was his Christmas present.

Santa Claus has already been to see me," Joyner said during an interview last week. He came to see me and what he brought me was n^life.

Joyner was working in Selma when a transit he was

carrying got caught in a man lift, a piece of construction equipment. He became pinned across the waist by the man lift and had to be cut out with torches by fellow workers.

He was taken to Johnston County Hospital, where doctors determined he had neurological damage to his left leg and referred him to neurological surgeons at Pitt County Memorial Hospital.

Joyners femoral artery was also damaged and bleeding, along with his small intestine and his colon. While in surgery he received 11 units of whole blood and (Please turn to A-8)

Yule Shopping Better This Year

By TOM BAINES Reflector Staff Writer While many Greenville merchants generally have come to expect successful business results during Christmas, some appear amazed that their stores continue to enjoy increased sales and shopper activity year after year.

. The results of a merchant survey again underlined what some observers have suggested for years: Greenville enjoys economic positives that annually translate into enviable financial reports for many members of the business community.

^veral merchants said they went into the 1983 holiday season doubting their stores could top last years sales totals and they not only acmeved those levels but posted even better figures.

Shopper traffic appeared to increase at some of the downtown stores, especially at ni{^t, and activity at the mail and shipping centers continued heavy as the final days of gift buying approached. A spokesman at a downtown store said a decision to remain open at night resulted in what he vjewed as bonus sal^ activity.

Theres only one way to describe it -siiper, reported the manager of a local

variety store who said 1983 has been the best year this stores ever seen since its been in Greenville. He said, Its just been a tremendous year, partly due to the remodeling of our store and partly due to the economy. Traffic has been tremendous.

He noted, This has been an exciting year with the Cabbage Patch Dolls. Also, the Glow Worm and Master of the Universe figures have been popular. For adults, the Spotlighter by Black and Decker and the Dustbuster were big sellers. Clothing, especially mens sweaters, sold well, he said.

^les at a Greenville discount store have been fantastic, reported the manager, who said shopper traffic was up substantially from 1982. Customers more or less know what they want, but they do shop around a little on the side. The manager said wine gift sets were pq^r choices.

The manager of a busy department store reported, Sales have been excellent. It has been a really good year. Im not sure where theyre getting their money from, but it has been reaUy good. He said clothing items were the best sellers, with customers charging more this year than in 1982. Shopper traffic was heavy, he said.

The owner of mens clothing stores

Were I

can tell we ar, not only by the eirs with out-of-town license plates, but also by the checks that go through the cash liters daily."

downtown and at the mall said that through Dec. 19 sales were ahead of last year by about 17 percent overall at both facilities, with results further ahead downtown than at the mall. He said while business at the mall store is usually strong in December, the downtown business does better on a 12-month basis.

The spokesman said no single category of merchandise stood out as gift choices this year. I think most of the people who come into the store up until today (Dec. 21) have something in mind. That doesnt mean thats what they end up buying, but most people have a specific item theyre thinking about. This will not be true the next two days. There is always some havoc buying.

Sales at a Greenville pet store in one word, have been phenomenal, the manager reported. Everything has been selling - dogs, parakeets, cages, fish - everything. He pointed to more cash sales ttian charges, although that usually changes as we get down to the last two days bef(n% Christmas. Traffic at the store, he said, has been more thin I can haiKile. He said his sales were up atxwt 35 or 40 percent from last year.

A spokesman for a local furniture business said sales have been so much better than last year, its unbelievable. We are talking about 25 percent ahead of the best year we ever had. rm amazed.

The sp(d(esman, who said cash sales were up this year, pointed to heavy out-of-town and out-of-county business as contributing to the salii increases. As an eaample of floor

activity, he said the store will close out 1983 with about 1,000 La-Z-Boy rockers sold, compared to about 700 moved'in 1982. He said sales of 400 to 500 rockers in a year used to be considered very good.

Saying the local economy is super good, he suggested that while inflation frightened people a few years back more than anything else, the frame of mind of the consumer is good now. The merchant said the first Christmas purchases were made at his store around July 3 this year and business since Thanksgiving has been steady.

The manager of another discount department store reported increased sales and shopper traffic over last year and generally a strong holiday season. He said the Cabbage Patch Dolls craze swept his store and the items were on the shelves only a short period of time. Tonka toys and G1 Joes were also popular as were Masters of the Universe items. Traditional clothing and cosmetics stood out as adult gift choices and computer sales continued as strong as ever.    i

The bulk of sales involved cash purchases, he said, although the store had an increase in credit card charges over last year. He said most customers seem to know what they want and they seem to be buying more expensive items.

Bike sales at a local business were up from last year, when the manager reported that wrchases of the two-wheelers appeared to lave leveled off. This year, an emp oyee said (Please turn to A-31

Alert Spoils GIs Ho iday

BEIRUT. Lebanon AP - Warplanes roared low over Beirut Saturday, artillery thundered in the mountains and U.S. Marines donned helmets and flak jackets for an hour-long alert before they ate their Christmas dinner.

The Marines were ordered to their second highest alert level when the planes made a mid-morning pass over the capital. Local radio stations identified the jets as American F-H Tomcats on reconnaissance missions, but Marine officials would not confirm this.

However. Marine Spokesman Maj. Dennis Brooks tied the alert condition "l-A" to the flights, which in the past have sometimes been followed by violence including the shelling of ihe Marine base at Beirut airport.

The alert was called off after an hour, allowing the 1,350 Marines at the airport camp to enjoy a Christmas dinner that included 777 pounds of roast turkey and 780 pounds of baked ham.

The state radio reported morning artillery and grenade fire in the mountains just above the Marine base. It said Druse-gunners hammered Lebanese army positions at Souk el-Gharb and villages to the south, bi^ did not say if the soldiers fired back.

Sproadic firing also was reported at other spots around the war-torn Mideast nation, but there were no reports of casualties.

Despite the sounds ot war, Christian radio stations and government-run Beirut Radio blared Christmas songs in

English, French and Arabic-----

U.S. Marines celebrated the holdiay a day early - as they did tor Thanksgiving - for what spokesman Capt, Wayne Jones described as security reasons.Officials feared an American holiday might be an invitation for a attack on the 'U S. coniirigcfit of (hr altiriationa! force.

There also was a -touch of home" for the other contingents in the multinational force.

French Defense .Minister Charles Hernu visited his troops on Christmas e'.'e. meeting both with soldiers in Beirut and Sailors aboard the French aircraft carrier Clemenceau.

The Italian contingent was to be visited on Christmas day by army, chief of staff Gen: Umberto Cappauzzo. and was to have a meal including a holiday lamb dish and two kinds of special pasta.

Bone-Tingling

Cold Hits N.C.

________By    The Associated Press

Bone-chilling winds whipped an arctic cold front into .North Carolina on Saturday, creating a "life-threatening situation" and fulfilling forecasters' predictions that Christmas 1983 would be one of the coldest ever.

The National Weather Service warned that temperatures Saturday night and Christmas morning would plunge as low as 20 degrees below zero in the northern mountains and would not rise above zero in many sections of the Piedmont, Temperatures were expected to range from 5 to 10 above zero in the coastal plain, and a few readings in the teens were forecast for the coast, where small craft advisories were posted.

However, the weather service said that fierce winds would make things far colder, pushing wind-chill factors as low as 40 below zero in the southern mountains and minus 10 to 30 in the Piedmont.    (

''This is a serious, life-threatening situation," said the weather service in a bulletin "A similar situation occured Jan. 10-15. 1982 ... and 11 people in North Carolina died from hypothermia or exposure."

Forecasters said anyone venturing out of doors should dress especially warmly. Several layers of clothing should be worn so that clothing soaked by persperation can be removed.

Temperatures were deceptively mild early Saturday, but the situation changed dramatically as the front moved' from the northern mountains across the Piedmont by midafter-noon. It was expected to hit the coastal plain by as the sun went down.

The mercury plunged 15 degrees in a matter of hours in the mountains Saturday morning.

In a telephone interview Saturday afternoon, Grandfather Mountain owner Hugh Morton said the local weather station had recorded a temperature of 16 degrees below zero and 58-mph winds. Friday night and early Saturday. 115-mph gusts were recorded, he said,

"Its really rough." said Morton. "We've got about an inch of snow on the ground, but the wind is blowing so hard that you can't really tell i how deep it is)."

Morton said this Christmas was "the coldest I can remember." The lowest temperature ever recorded at Grandfather Mountain is 27 degrees below zero, but "since it's 16 below with the sun out. we could break that tonight." he said.

The Grandfather Mountain weather station is 5.300 feet above sea level.

The weather service said it expected record-shattering temperatures throughout North Carolina.

Nine Die In

DEVERS, Texas (AP) - A bus carrying wM^pers to a Christinas revival was "cut open like swne kind of can <^ner had come through" after it collided head-on wiHi a truck, killing nine people and injurii^ 14, a state trooper said Satuntoy.

The powerful impact of the two vehicles left "50 yards of destruction," said ambulance worker Lynn Wells.

Rescue workms found bodies, numerous severed limbs and a decapitated man scattered along Farm-to-Market Road 61, about 50 miles niMlheast of Houston. The vehicles were left ujKide down in ditches on opposite sides of t road, officials said.

The accident occurred about 8 p.m. Friday wi a slrai^t stretch, of well-maintained, relatively dry road, and investigators said Saturday that they were baffled by the cause.

Jimmy Kirksey. a trooper with the Department of Public Safety in Beaumont, said the weather did not appear to be a factor in the wreck.

"It was dry at the time. It had been misting rain most of the

day. but it quit just prior to dark h* aid He said the truck, which was carrying drilling mud and belonged to BAJ Vacuum Service of Daisetta. met the bis somewhere near the center, if not at the center of the road.

"The bus was cut open like some kind of can opener had come through," said Kirksey, adding the vehicles struck teadh^t to heatfli^it.

Officers found no skid marks, Kirksey said, indicating the two vehicles jffobably met at a coipbined speed of around 110 mph.

Kirksey said 22 peqple we*-e on the bus. which belonged to the Lily of the Valley Church of God in Christ in Nome. The driver, church pastor Leo Walters. 46. was among those killed.    '    ,    ,

The bus was going to the Magnolia Church of Christ in Anahuac for the final night of a week-long revival, officials said. Loyd Walters, the son of the bus driver, said his father had picked up worshipers from several East Texas towns.

WASHI.XGTOX (API -President Reagan, acting on a recommendation from Secretary of State George P. Shultz, has decided to take the first step toward withdrawing the United States from the U.X. Educational. Scientific and Cultural Organization, an administration official said Saturday.

An announcement is expected from the State Department sometime next week that notice to withdraw from the U.N. agency will be filed by New Year's Eve. That will set the stage for a U.S. withdrawal at the end of 1984 - "unless UNESCO changes its ways.'' said the official, who declined to be identified.

The agency, which was created to encourage scientific. educational and cultural exchanges between nations, has aiieinpieu io set worldwide press standards, thereby raising concerns that it was promoting censorship. It also stirred controversy by banning Israel from its activ-, ities, a move that subsequently was reversed.

The United States, with its contribution of $50 million, underwrite one-fourth of UNESCO's budget of $200 million. Under U.N. rules, unless notice to withdraw was filed by Dec. 31. the United States could not pull out until 1985.

The Traditional Conservative holds to the Biblical concept of the fallen nature of man - that man is basically self-centered and rebellious. Saint Paul said it clearly: There is none righteous, no, not one. This being the case, man is incapable of solving the problems of human greed, human cruelty, human intolerance, because mans own nature is the cause of these problems. The human condition can be rectified only with Divine help. And that help came - a savior who is Christ the Lord. He came into His own and His own knew Him not. But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the Children of God, even to them that believe on His name. Through Him the hearts and minds of men can be changed; the fallen nature, restored. This is the season of the Saviors birth. Surely those who receive Him shall find peace, joy, and guidance in their daily lives, and they shall awaken to the realization that though their feet've in the mud their eyes are fixed firmly upon the stars. God bless you on this Christmas Day.

Battleship Missouri To Be Overhauled

monthk, are just along for the excitement of the holiday. (Reflector Photo by Tommy Forrest)

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Navy plans to begin oveitauling the Missouri, the battleship where the Japanese surrtndered in 1945, next October in Long Beach, Calif., (rfficials sai(l.

Renovations of the World War II battleship are subject to congressional approval of the 1985 butfeet, Lt. Cmdr. Ross CuUicJt said Saturday.

The Missouri, mothballed since the mid-1950s, is one of the four battleships from the same period that the Navy has either put in use or intends to put in use.

The New Jersey, now off the coast of Lebanon, was recommissioned in 1982. And the Iowa is ^ndergoing renovation at Pascagoula, Miss. It is slated to be commissioned in mid-1984. The Navy also wants to reactivate the Wisconsin.

Cutlick said if all goes according to plan, the Missouri will be ready for action in June or July 1986.

The^ship will be updated with a lot of modern eouipment," he said. Its going to take quite a while. The renovations will take place at the Long Beach Naval Shipyard, he said.

The 58,000-ton Missouri, currently in storage in Bremerton, Wash., is 887-feet long and has a 108-foot beam. Like the other battleships, it has 16-inch guns which can fire projectiles weighing 2,700 pounds at a distance of 23 miles.

The Missouri was first commissioned in June 1944. Fourteen months later, on Sept. 2. 1945, the war with Japan officially ended aboard the battleship, anchored in Tokyo Bay.

$125 Million Overpoid

Medicaid Payments Cited

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (UPI) - Federal auditors suspect the government may be overpaying pharmacists as much as $125 million a year for filing Medicaid prescriptions, according to preliminary findings for the Health and HumanServices Department.

A study being prepared by the Health and*Human Services inspector general in Dallas says most state Medicaid programs use a formula for reimbursing pharmacists for drugs that overstates the actual cost of the drugs by about 15 percent. The formula assumes )harmacists pay wholesale 1st prices, but they usually receive substantial discounts, the study said.

The Arkansas Gazette reported the preliminai7 findings in Saturdays editions.

Hershell James, audit manager for the study, said in a recent interview the study was prompted by an audit of Arkansas Medicaid program, released last week, that showed the state could reduce its annual ^Medicaid drug bill by 11 percent, or about $3 million, by changing

its reimbursement formulas.

The estimated overpayments in the study, which has not yet been reviewed in Washington, represent almost 8 percent of the $1.6 that Medicaid spends each year on prescription drugs for the poor and disabled.

Besides reimbursement, pharmacists also collect what is called a dispensing fee for each Medicaid prescription filled, designed to cover overhead costs and a small profit. James said pharmacists thus collect profits from that fee and again through reimbursement.

James said his early findings show that the federal government could save about $70 million a year and that state governments could save another $55 million annually if the reimbursement formula were changed.'

The federal government pays from 50 percent to 78 percent of the cost of Medicaid programs administered by states. The federal share in Arkansas is about 72 percent.

The results of the Arkansas audit prompted a review in five other states: Colorado,

Massachusetts, Michigan. North Carolina and Oregon. The Arkansas report said pharmacists received discounts frome wholesale list prices ranging from 9.5 percent to 40.5 percent in more than 99 percent of cases studied. The average discount was 15.7 percent; yet all the pharmacists were jMid the average of the published^ wholesale list prices, the audit said.

The variances were similar in the other states stud^ ied, James said. Discounts are available everywhere and are taken everywhere.

The federal agency also surveyed Medicaid officials in 47 states by telephone to determine reimbursement practices. In 27 states, reimbursement was based almost

always on published list prices, James said.

"The situation in Arkansas exists nationwide. There's probably 70 million bucks a year out there thats been expended unnecessarily, he said. I dont know if all of it could be saved, but a lot of it will.

I think everybody is more educated this year about what is popular and they know what they want, the manager said. Theyre preparing a tittle bit more before they go shopping.

Cabbage Patch Dolls were the items gaining the most attention at another discount department store although Bigfoot trucks, G1 Joes and all merchandise with a military look were also popular, the manager said. Computers were chosen by adults. The spokesman said customers shopped selectively this year, "but more were apt to buy other things compared to the past few years. Sales compared to last year have been very good.

A downtown book store experienced an increase in sales of about 50 percent in November and 15-20 percent in December from 1982, it was reported. A spokesman said, We are tickled. Our night business has been real good and we actually debated as to whether to stay open at night. He mentioned that the store moved to a new location last year and customer response so far has been excellent.

The spokesman said the biggest seller this year was personalized stationery and calling cards. Bargain books were also very popular.

The owner of a local camera shop said much of his business is related to students and about the time Christmas activity begins to pick up in general, the students leave for the holidays. For that reason, "Our business is really hard to judge, he said. We are happy and wish it was better, but we are not complaining. The Cannon Sure-Shot, a 35-millimeter camera that is very easy to operate, ms the biggest seller this Christmas, he said.

EPA Puts Off

Pesticide Ban

WASHINGTON (AP) -The federal government has denied a request that it immediately set national standards for food containing traces of the highly toxic pesticide ethylene dibromide.

Rusty Brashear, a spokesman for the Environmental Protection Agency, said Saturday the agency told Florida Gov. Bob Graham it must study the matter further before deciding if it will impose a federal standard.

EPA, joined by the Food and Drug Administration and the Agriculture Department, sent Graham a letter saying the agency is working as quickly as possible to review tests and data. The agency "believes there is no need to act before a review is complete, the letter said. The review is expected to Be finished in January.

Last Tuesday, the Florida government ordered sales to be halted on a wide range of processed wheat and corn because they contained 1 part per billion EDB or

more.

The Grocery Manufacturers of America Inc.. has tried, so far unsuccessfully, to get the courts to lift the Florida ban.

Opinion

Christmas Story Offers ffope Yet Of World Peace

It has been 2.000 years since the Biblical Christmas story unfolded: yet the message of that day applies so well in our modern world.

The message was one of peace, concern for our fellow man and hope for the future. Peace has been interrupted many times since that miraculous night and our concern for our fellow man has not always been what it should be.

The hope that was given to mankind is still with us, however, and it will be until the end of time.

AW of us at The Daily Reflector wish a happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year for our friends and readers.

And it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.

And all went to be taxed, everyone into his own city.

And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Sazareth. into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David.

To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

.And so it was. that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

.And she brought forth her first born son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes and lay him in a manger, because there was no room for him in the inn.

.And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

.And io. the .Angel of the Lord came upomthem. and the glory of the lord shown round about them, and they were sore afraid.

.And the angel said unto them. Fear not: for behold. I

people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Sa viour. which is Christ the Lord.

.And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.

.And suddenly there u as with the .Angel a multitude of the hea venly hosts praising God and saying.

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

.And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them unto heaven, the shepherds said to one another. let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which has come to pass, which the lord has made known unto us.

.And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, arid the babe lying in a manger.

.And when they had seen it. they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

.AH they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

.And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

Sunday Morning Notes

It is Christmas Day and as one reflects on recent events, one has to wonder if this is not a world gone mad.    

Hundreds of U.S. Marines and French military personnel killed in a Suiehde boiubing uf theil positions. Two U.S. embassies have been bombed in similar fashion.

If there can be any justification for such acts, at least we can say these occurred in an area of the world where there is a war of sorts under way.

But in London, only a week before Christmas, a horrible bomb explosion killed and injured many innocent people at Herrod's, the famed department store. Their only crime was that they were out shopping for Christmas. A faction of the Irish Republican Army took credit, if that is the word, although the main IRA disclaimed re-ponsibility.

How could such acts be perpetrated by civilized people? Certainly it could not happen in America.

Well, closer to home a supermarket manager was

gunned dowm as he made a night deposit in Greenville during this

year.

And just a few days before Christmas a teen-aged girl working in a Bethel laundry and a respected teaeher, who was a customer, were beaten to death at the laundry, apparently just before it closed for the day. The act shocked Bethel citizens and, indeed, everyone in this area who believes in the sanctity of human life.

Can there be any hope for a human race which breeds the individuals w'ho can commit such acts?

Well, if w'e walk about the shopping centers of the area we can hear a bell ringing. If we pass the bell often enough we will see that the individuals ringing it. change regularly. Thats because it is a Salvation Army collection point and the people ringing the bell are volunteers who give their time to be of service. The funds collected are used to provide some Christmas for the poor.

Almost every church in the county collects funds and goods

which are used to provide food baskets, clothing, furniture and toys for those families which would have none during Christmas.

Many youth groups and - s^ice organizations are visiting nursing homes for caroling or providing favors during this year, and many families will invite lonely friends to their homes to share Christmas dinner in the true spirit of the season.

There was ugliness in the world 2,000 years ago when a birth in the Middle East began the traditional celebration we now know as Christmas. There is still ugliness now, as the senseless killings in Bethel have brought home to us this Christmas.

But there is also goodness in our world. There is compassion and kindness and concern for our fellow man. It goes on all around us all day every day. It is good that we observe Christmas each year, for it reminds us that most of us are basically compassionate and honest. The hope for humanity that was born 2,000 years ago is still dominant.

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Reagan is having a hard time explaining why U.S. Marines will spend this Chrtstmas and maybe tte next one in Lebanon, on the lo(Aout for shells while they eat their holiday dinners.

Their mission, he said at a news conference Tuesday ni^. is to help the Lebanese army "try to achieve some stability and maintain order."    .....    '

This implied he might have the Marines move in bdiind the army when it fans out from Beirut, but officials said there is no such jplan and Reagan had not meant to indicate there is one.

Actually, the president catuiot e^nd the scepe-or loeatkra of je Marines without the specific approval of Congress, although he does have permission to keep the Marines in Lebanon until March 1985.

Reagan apparently has ruled out a withdrawal at least until Lebanese President Amin Gemayel has spread his wings &r is more than, as one administration official put it the other day. "the Duke of Beirut."

White House officials deny reports the president h^s decided to bring the Marines home before next summers political conventions, or that he is even considering a plan for withdrawal in the spring.

Initially, the Marines went to Lebanon in August 1982 to assist in the evacuation of beaten Palestine Liberation Organization guerrillas. A month later, the Marines returned as a presence," a symbol of U.S. hopes for an end to mortal feuding among Lebanese factions.

Somewhere along the line, the Marines began to be referred to as peacekeepers." After two Marines were killed, a heavily armed task force was moved to the waters off Lebanon - as "a marker for the Syrians," the president told congressional leaders on Sept. 4.

Three months later, on Dec. 5, while declaring the United States did not want a military confrontation with Syria, which had opened fire on U.S. reconaissance flights. Reagan described the American role this way:    -

Our mission remains what it was. to help stabilize th'e situation in Beirut until all the foreign forces can be withdrawn and until the government of Lebanon can take over the authority of its own territory."

However noble the twingoals, that would mean waiting for-Lebanon to enjoy a sovereignty that colonial powers, its neighbors and local warlords have not permitted for hundreds of years.

Last week, in an exchange with reporters. Reagan again implied the Marines will remain in Lebanon until the United States achieves its goals - a peaceful settlement in which all Israeli. Syrian and PLO forces leave.

While Israel has agreed to withdraw and a faction of tl^e PLO has pulled out. the Syrians have rejected appeals from the Gemayel government and from the Reagan administration. They give no sign of budging.

If the Marines are to remain until Syria disinvites itself from Lebanon, the Marines could be there for many Christmases.

Reagan on Dec. 14 suggested another circumstance in which the Marines might withdrawn - "if there was such a collapse of order that it was absolutely certain there would be no solution to the problem."

At his news conference Tuesday night, Reagan said that was "maybe a bad choice of words'" and he had meant to give a hypothetical answer to a hypothetical question.

More than 250 Marines and sailors have perished this year in bombing and sniping attacks in Lebanon. The suicide assault on Marine headquarters in October alone took the lives of 241 men.

^ The number of Marines hunkered down on the outskirts of Beirut may vary on a given day from 1.500 to 1.900 because, since the headquarters tragedy, more support personnel have been kept aboard ships.

Initialy. tha Marines did not respond to sniping attacks. But Reagan subsequently relayed orders through the Pentagon that "when an Ainerican military man is shot at, he can shoot back."    '

As a result. Reagan said at the news conference, terrorists who have made the multinational force of U.S. Marines and French. Italian and British soldiers "fair game" may be reconsidering.

But. he acknowledged. "I dont say that they wont try these terrorist activities again, I am sure they will ^

Reagan said he could not give in to the terrorists or to political considerations in deciding when to bring the Marines home. "The Marines will come home as quickly as it is possible to bring them home in accomplishing our'mission." he said.

Defining that mission hasnt been easy, especially when the polls register disapproval of Reagans handling of Lebanon. Liberal Democrats like Sen. Alan Cranston of California are accusing him of being "trigger-happy " and conservative Republicans like Sen. Barry Golciwter of Arizona are advocating withdrawal.

Reagan, a shrewd politician, is aware of these pressures. But he also is imbued with patriotism and a determination to see Gemayel through in his drive to take control of the divided country.

acquire permanent headquarters. they realized that raising money to py for those buildings would be a lot easier if two tax laws could be looped. First, North Carolina law forbids corprate contributions to political prties. Second, federal law limits to $100 the amount of a

plitical contribution that an individual taxpayer can deduct from his taxes.

With the help of The Historic Preservation Fund of North Carolina, a private, non-profit organization, both parties found the loophole they needed, and both are now headquartered in ex

quisite old homes. In 1979, the Democrats bought the Goodwin House on Hillsborough Street in Raleigh. This year, the Republicans bought a Civil War period house just up the street.

Technically, the parties never purchased the houses.

Both parties set up private, non-profit, corprations dedicated to historic preservation. Those corporations -which are totally under the control of the respective parties - bought the houses and have paid to have them renovated. The money needed to pay for those

buildings was - and con-tinueslo be - raised by the parties but channeled through the preservation fund.

The involvement of the historic preservation fund allowed .the parties to take corprate contributions and individual contributors to

take big tax breaks.

Although federal law allows corprations to help a state or national party or buy a permanent headquarters, state law does not. So without the preservation fund, corporations could not have helped either party purchase its headquarters.

Guarding A Right To Be Leh Alone

WASHINGTON One of the great compelling motivations for the formation of the American union was the hunger of the settlers for religious freedom. They brought that conviction to the eastern seaboard. There the principle of religious liberty took root and flowered - but somehow it never made it westward to Nebraska.

For the past seven y^ears, state officials have been engaged in a systematic campaign to wip out a score of fundamentalist Christian schools scattered around Nebraska. Their efforts successfully came to a head in the matter of the tiny Faith Baptist School in Louisville; Seven stubborn men, the fathers of children enrolled in the school, are now in jail for their stubbornness. The unhappy story is beginning to draw national attention.

It is by no means a novel story. In 1925, Oregon attempted to make Catholic children attend pblic schools. Fifty years later Wisconsin persecuted the Amish, Ohio, North Carolina and Kentucky have sought at various times to whip the fundamentalist Christian schools into line. Nebraska follows in an igno-bl^th.

The situation in Nebraska now is so complicated by bad law and bad behavior that sympathetic ot^rvers despair (rf salvaging the kind of religious freedom that has been won elsewhere. In the town of Louisville, a few miles south of (hnaha in Cass County, a fundamentalist pastor named f Everett Sileven established the Faith Baptistr Church. In Ihe

church basement he established a school for about 25 children from his flock, ranging in age from 5 to 16, and he assigned his daughter Teresa and two adult monitors to supervise their instruction in the program known as Accelerated Christian Education. Teresa, for the record, has a bachelors degree.

Came the state of Nebraska, brandishing Title 19 of the Nebraska Revised Statutes and citing rules 14 and 21 promulgated thereunder, all to the effect that only state-approved schools may oprate under the law. State approval involves teacher certification, materials and equipment. len|^ of school day and year, requirements for health and safety, a minimum required curriculum, and the filing of reports on school attendance. Only teachers holding "a valid Nebraska certificate, legalizing him or her to teach the grades or subjects to which elected." are permitted to teach;

Pastor Sileven got some bad advice. The well-established law is that our individual right to the free exercise of reli^ is not an unlimited right. Society also has rights. In the matter of eduction, society has a right to insist that children leam the bask subjects, that they ato classes in a safe environment, and that the state be informed of their contimdi|g education.

SUeven and his flock chose to be adamant, T|0 insisted that the state had no riiM to reate their schoofm any way. to one embtnaaaiii to itoding, they diarf^

^ was vioiatiiii tlyi& rpt "to ben* ehton .as thatto*

which was nonsense. The state s petition for an injunction to close the school led to a poorly prepared trial in which kev constitutional issues were not even raised. The injunction was granted. The Nebraska Supreme Court upheld the state. The U.S. Supreme Court, without hearing argument, summarily affirmed. Nebraska officials then undertook to enforce the schools closing. Sileven spent four months in jail for contempt; now seven of his followers are in jail, and the situation deteriorates.

In its opinion approving the injunction, a majoritv of Nebraskas Supreme Court approved the states requirement for teacher certification. Chief Justice Norman Krivosha dissented. He found nothing "either in our statutes or in logic which compels a conclusion that one may not teach in a private school without a baccalaureate degree i'f the children are to be properly educated." That issue is being pressed anew in a new caae involving the Park West Christian School in Lincoln.

, By m sympathies lie entirely with the estimated 500 fun-damentdist faniibes in Nebraska who regard their little schools asdirect extensions of their church. I have visited such sMs: J have witnessed their cheerfulness and their discipline; and I have seen evidence that their childron tto at least as wtU as children in public schools. Assunting crnn-pjBince with baatth. safety and basic curriculum. I think thev RBve a right to be left aione.

To the editor:

Since Ive been in Greenville, I have been impressed by the wonderful exposure to the arts that is offered here. The university has afforded the people entertainment that is often only found in large cities.

Recently I attended The Nutcracker BaTlet performed by the North Carolina Academy of Dance directed by Cheryl Mercer. It was a beautiful performance. However, as I watched it, I kept thinking something was wrong. Then I realized it was not the performance but the stage. It was too small, this performance is wonderful and should become a tradition available to the people of Greenville every year.' /The people in Greenville continuously show their lov and support for the university. Wouldn't it be wonderful if once a year they could return their appreciation by allowing this performance in McGinnis Theater.

WASHINGTON (AP) - ^ident Reagan i' a man of habits when it comes to relaxation, and one habit he will be exercising is his practice of enjoying the sunshine of the California desert over the New Year holiday.

But theres been only one problem durii^ the two previous presidential trips to the desert playland of Palm Springs: The weather.

It might be a good idea for him to pack some waterproof golf shoes, because the dry desert turned damp during his 1981 and 1982 visits. And forget the blue jeans and cowboy boots. They are for the ranch. In Rahn Springs, go and partying prevail.

It is in Palm Springs that the president plays what he calls his annual golf game. He aoes not play golf with the frequency of President Ford, who rarely let an available ^turday afternoon pass in Washington without motoring out to a course in suburbaq Maryland. But Reagan has increasingly turned to golf for relaxation.

WASHINGTON (UPI) - President Reagan says he has talked with theologians about the biblical prophecies of Armageddon and thought about it, but "not to the extent of throwing up my hands and saying. Well, its all over."

No, I think, whichever generation and whatever time, when the time comes, the generation that is there. I think will have to go on doing what they believe is right. he told People magazine.

But Robert Scheers "With Enough Shovels quotes American and Soviet nuclear scientists as agreeing that soon there will be about three minutes for human decision making if nuclear missiles are launched. That does not seem to give any generation time to do what they think is right, or even to hunker down and head for a bomb shelter.

The breakdown of the U.S.-Soviet negotiations on intermediate and long range missiles and on reduction of conventional forces in Europe gives a picture of superpower relations that is not encouraging.

The refusal of the Soviets to set new dates for resumption of talks on the three fronts followed the start of American deployment of Pershing II and Cruise missiles in Europe. The missiles were deployed to counter more than 300 Soviet SS-20 missiles aimed at European capitals.

It appears relations between the superpowers are at the lowest ebb since the Cold War. And in a much more dangerous world where the 40-year-old deterrent of mutual suicide is being shelved for the possibility of winners and losers.

Scheer writes that a cabal of unreconstructed hawks and neo-hawks who had never been at ease with the arms control efforts of the Nixon, Ford and Carter administrations suddenly came into its own in this administration.

The members of this group categorically reject peaceful coexistence with the Soviet Union as that country is now constituted. They seek instead through confrontation, through the use of political and economic pressure and the threat of military weapons to radically alter the nature of Soviet , society, he wrote.

He went on to say:

They assume, as (President) Reagan has stated, that the Soviet Union underlies all the unrest that is going on. If they I ^werent engaged in this game of dominoes, there wouldnt be any hot spots in the world. Convinced that the nuclear arms \\ , race is dangerous not in itself but only if the Soviets gain superiority, they have shifted the emphasis of American foriegn policy from the avoidance of nuclear war to the preparation for tis possible outbreak.

Early in his administration, Reagan approved a National Security Council document that undertakes a campaign aimed at internal reform in the Soviet Union and shrinkage of the Soviet empire.

After some pause, the president believes that the Soviets will and return to the negotiating table. He says the United States will be there to resume the talks.

But undoubtedly there is some soul searching going on in .,the Soviet Union with the serious illness of President Yuri .;Andropov. The Russian efforts to rally European opposition ' to deployment of the U.S. missiles were unsuccessful, if On both sides the arms race goes on, full speed ahead. In iaddition, war in outer space, called "The Star Wars phase .approaches.

-* In his book, Scheer quotes Soviet (rfiysicist Yevgeny

< Velikhov that the Star Wars concept as irrational from toe military point of view, and irrational from the economic point of view costing trillions of dollars. But he added that there .would be a groundswell in the Soviet Union to match the U.S. with such a system.

' For Reagan, the Star Wars defense system would give the United States the ultimate shield in space against all . enemy missiles.

But Velikhov said first of all, it is impossible to make any system 100 percent foolproof, but for nuclear war we need a too percent foirfproof defense system, be said.

. "Second, for such a defense system to completely stop a first strike you need to know the time and place in advance.

: You need thousands of units (in space) because it is necessary to cover all the earths surface."

,T Such a system would be sensitive to small distortions and

< i| an aggressor makes a smaU hole in this system, and puts his miMile through these holes, the system does not work.

Why, just this year, he helicoptered out to Andrews Air Force Base on a Saturday not to Ixiard Air Force One but to use the golf course there. And he flew to Augusta. Ga.. one * weekend to try out the Augusta National golf course that is the site of the Masters golf tournament.

The golf course the president chooses in Palm Springs is right outside his door. Each year, he and his wife. Nancy, spend the New Year holiday at the sprawling estate of millionaire publisher Walter Annenberg. whose property happens to include a golf course.

For the Reagans, a visit to Palm Springs is a chajice to .spend mornings sleeping late, afternoons relaxing - the president takes in the holiday football games on the television - and evnings dining with friends.

In the evening, a line of a dozen cars or so snakes down the winding driveway of the estate, turns out the guarded gate and heads out into the desert. At the destination, usually a country club behind massive walls or fences, the Reagans spend several hours at dinner with longtime friends from

their California days.

This year is expected to be no different.

Before they head to California, the Reagans were to spend Christmas at the White House after their now-traditional Christmas Eve at the home of Charles Z. Wick, a Reagan friend from California who is director of the U.S. Information Agency.

Then, unlike his predecessor who preferred to spend Christmas in his own home in Plains. Ga,. Reagan will spend Christmas Day in the White House, finally quietvafter days anddays^f^arties-andioursof the decorations.

In the East Room alone, cracked spokesman Larry Speakes. you'd have to take out 14 Christmas trees to prepare the room for a news conference.

Then, two days after Christmas, and one day after a round of professional football games, the Reagans will head west again, spending two days in Los Angeles before retreating to Palm Springs for four days of vacation.

WASHINGTON - Contrary to common opinion that the Reagan administration is set on rerrcwing its csntoigency tax proposal in the new budget, the White House has yet to make a momentous decision that will profoundly affect the 1984 presidential campaign.

President Reagans senioor advisers have before them two general tactics for handling projected budget deficits. The defensive tactic would renew this years stillborn proposal for a massive tax increase, contingent on spending cuts that will never be enacted. The offensive tactic would approach the deficit with an exciting innovation: a flat-tax simplification that would lower - not raise - tax rates for ordinary Americans.

Of course, no major tax bill will become law in election year 1984. But what is decided in the next month will dictate whether Ronald Reagan has anything new to say in his re-election campaign.

This is no mere fiscal decision but a choice between standpat Republican orthodoxy and Reaganistic populism shaping a second term. Oddly, within the White House famous Reaganauts embrace orthodoxy while some pragmatists are tending toward populism.

There is no argument over the necessity that the Fiscal 85 budget, submitted early in 1984, show reductions in the $200 billion budget deficits extending into the future. Richard Withlin, the presidents pollster and political adviser, contends Reagan is vulnerable to Democratic campaign strategy harping on huge deficits. James A. Baker HI. the powerful chief of staff, completely agrees. However dubious its economic premise, deficitphobia is a way of life at the White House.A Way Of Life

The routine remedy there long has been to resubmit the contingency tax. a tactic drenched in political cynirism it.s defect is that it cbbbers th ordinary American taxpayer by taxing energy and piling on a 1 percent income surtax. Its stpiong point is that Congress will not enact the necessary spending cuts. By April (of 1984), everybody will have forgotten about it. one senior presidential iade told us.

But maybe not. As the election nears, the ploy of reducing budget deficits with imaginary tax increases may become more transparent. While charging deception, critics can simultaneously indict the anti-tax, anti-government president for leveling a $200 billion tax increase against Joe Sixpack. In contrast, Walter F. Mndale as Democratic presidential nominee probably would embrace the Bradley-Gephardt flat tax bill to help out Joe.

Out of such concerns among the presidents men has evolved an alternative to the contingency tax; reduce future deficits by putting a revenue plug in the budget - that is, plugging in additional revenue without specifying its source. Suspicion of this scheme in the West Wing has led to caustic comparisons with Richard Nixon s 1%8 secret plan to end the Vietnam War.

But a variant of the revenue plug is the true offensive option: without spelling out details just yet, suggest the idea of tax simplification. Under this option. Reagan might propose a flat tax. retaining deductions for home mortgage and charity but lowering the average tax rate from 21 percent to 14 percent - benefit-ting, not penalizing. Joe Sixpack. Additional revenue would come from broadening the tax base, hitting the underground economy and encouraging economic growth. It is a tax plan geared to

Main Street rather than ^ all Street.

Its audacity alarms the cautious, consprvative soul of orthodox Rp-publicanism well represented in the White House. So faithful a Reaganaut as iresidential counselor Edwin Meese III eads support for the contingency tax.

But the simplification option has been picking up speed. Richard Darman. the senior staffer previously distrusted by supply-siders as an inveterate tax booster. leans that way. Darman's chief. Jim Baker, sees the plusses and minuses of both options and has not yet made up his mind. By the time a decision is made in the coming weeks, the more imaginative course might yet be taken.

One reason is the political nature of this president. Reaganaut Wirthlin a few' weeks ago was solidly committed to the contingency tax but now is wondering whether that is the baggage for his chief to carry into the campaign. Ronald Reagan'is always better playing offense than defense. one of his political advisers told us. More grandly, another White House adveser sees the president's mystique, despite his age and conservatism. in the reformist mold of John F. Kennedy rather than stolid EisenKower-Ford Republicanism.

In this as on other internal policy questions, Reagan seems curiously unengaged. The debate now and for the immediate future is conducted within his staff. Although roughly aware of the dispute, the president has not yet had it presented to him as an either-or option and it may have become a staff consensus by the time it reaches the Oval Office. But given a clear choice between a patently insincere tax increase and another step toward radical tax reform, the presidents own inclination would hardly seem indoubt.

PRINCETON, N.J. - Sustained by growing public optimism over the economy and favorable reaction to the operation in Grenada, President Reagans job performance rating remains at its highest level in two years.

In the latest survey, 53 percent express approval of Reagans handling of the presidency, up a full 10 points from an August survey, while 37 percent disapprove. The last time the presidents ^rformance rating was significantly higher was in October 1981, when 56 percent approved and 35 percent disapproved.

The uptrend in the publics favorable response to the presidents overall performance in office is paralleled by increases in approval of his handling of specific domestic and interna-tiona problems. In fact, the current approval level for most of these problems represents the highest percentage recorded to date for President Reagan.

Greatest support is found for the president's handling of the situation in Grenada, with 59 percent expressing approval and 32 percent disapproval.

In the case of the other six problems studied, approval still falls below the 50 percent level. Specifically, here are the findings:

- 48 percent now approve of Reagan's handling of economic conditions - up 11 points since August 1983 and the highest figure recorded since August 1981.

- On the international front. 46 percent approve of Reagans overall handling of foreign policy, a jump of 15 points since August and the highest approval since December 1981.

- Approval has grown for the presidents handling of relations with the Soviet Union, as well as the nuolear disarmament negotiations, but the trend has been fairly flat in both cases.

While Reagan wins approval from nearly half of persons interviewed for his handling of nuclear.disarmament, a parallel survey shows the public leaning heavily to the view that the president is not going far enough in trying to bring about an agreement with the Soviet Union on nuclear weapons. The figures are: not far nough - 48 percent; toofar -12 percent; about right' - 28 percent; and no opinion -12 percent.

- Approval is slightly up on Reagans handling of the situation in Lebanon and Central America, but only a third express support for the president's efforts in each area.

Here are'the questions asked:

Do you approve or disapproite of the way Ronald Reagan is handling his job as presidenf?

Now. let me ask you about some specific problems. As I read off each problem, would you tell me whether you approve or disapprove of the way President Reagan is handling that problem?

Coal Mine Was lll^ated From The Start

In 1943, when Sanford junk dealer Max Brown hauled away 25 tons or so of scrap iron from the site of the Old Egypt Mine in Lee County, wiseacres quipped that he was the only one who had made any money from mining coal in North Carolina. On the other hand, the ill-fated efforts to exploit the North Carolina coal field had causecf the deaths of more than 200 miners and brought financial ruin to many other persons.

Neighborhood blacksmiths had been using Deep River coal from outcrdps prior to the Revolutionary War, and it is said Gen. Nathaniel Greene paused there in his persuit of Cornwallis. Peter Evans, whose Egypt Plantation covered much of the coal field, had been using it (m his farms for upward of 20 years.

However, efforts to mine the Deep River field cimimercially were stymied until river boat and rail transp0ation reached near enough to it to haul the coal to market.

Brooks Harris sank the first shaft of toe Egypt mine in 1853, and a coal seam six feet thick was discovered at a depth of 4^ feet. The Governors Creek Steam Transpwtation k Mining Co. began digging a small Quantity of coal for local use. It was enough, hoever, to establish the mines reputation as a killer, and to make the name Egypt one to be avoided by

miners. Hardly a year went by from 1855 to 1860 that the newspaper did not carry a report of a disaster at the mine. Miners said it was jinxed.

The Egypt mine became highly irriportant to the Confederacy, particularly after the loss of the Tennessee mines in 1863. It was one of only three sources of coal left to the South. It supplied coal to the Confederate Navy yards at Charlotte and Charleston, the arsenal at Fayetteville and to blockade runners at Wilmington.

Skippers if the blockade runners, however, had no fondness for Eqypt coal. They said it burned well but gave off a dense black smoke which was a dead giveaway to the Yankee blockading fleet. This prompted the owners of blockade-running ships to lay in a supply of smokeless coal from Wales which they used when federal ships were in vicinity. They switched to Egypt coal when the coast was clear.

On one occasion, a Confederate Navy vessel, the Tallahassee, helped itself to the Welsh coal so that none was on hand when the famed blockade runner Ad-Vance came to call. It had to load its bunkers with Egypt coal and was captured when the thick black smoke betrayed its position to the Yankees. Gov. Zebulon Vance, after whom the ship was named.

exchanged some sharp words with Navy Secretary Stephen Mallory over the incident.

During the war, coal miners were deferred from military service because they were needed more to mine coal, and in 1863 several Chatham County men were released from active duty and put to mining coal. However, they would have been safer on the front line. They arrived just in time to be caught by the first of the really serious explosions in the Egypt mine. Fifty miners were killed then, ano other explosions followed throughout the war.

After the war. the mine was sold and resold as first one group of speculators and then another got control of the mine. Finally, in 1870. it was closed and filled with water.

In 1888. William P. Henszey and his nephew. Samuel Henszey. of Philadelphia, acquired the mine. They pumped it dry and put it back into production. However, the mine's reputation as a Jonah made it so difficult to obtain miners that the Henszeys resorted to the use of convict labor. Apparently, the jinx didn't like this arrangement because in 1895 an explosion took the lives of 44 persons, most of them convicts. .The resultant public outcry ended the practice of farming out convicts to work in mines.

In the hope of preventing a recurrence of

such explosions, the Henszeys sank an air shaft near the river. They named it the Kitty after a pert stenographer who worked in the office. But the Kitty did not subdue the jinx for in 1900 there came an explosion that took 25 lives. That was too much for the Henszeys. They closed the mine in 1902 and left the state seeking less lethal mines.

Finally, the mine was acquired by the Norfolk Southern Railway which drained it and put it back in operation in 1917 under the name of Cumnock Coal Co.. supplying coal for its own use. The railroad sold it in 1922 to Erksine Ramsey of Birmingham. Ala.

Meanwhile. John R. McQueen, who had made a modest fortune supplying electricity to citizens and mills in the Sandhills section of North Carolina, came up with the idea of building a generating plant near the mouth of a coal mine and using the coal to fire the biolers. He figured he could produce cheap electricity to power industry in his area, particularly the textile mills. In partnership with Bion H. Butler and others, he organized the Carolina Coal & By-Products Co. and reopened the old Carolina mine of the Chatham County side of the Deep River. In 1924. McQueen sold his electric pwwer interests to Carolina and Light Co. in order to devote his full time to coal mining.

Bomb Shatters Famous Paris Restaurant, Injures 12 Diners

PARIS tAP' - French otficials said Saturday that a bombing that injured 12 diners at one of France's most famous restaurants was probably politically motivated.

An explosion ripped through a wall of the Grand Vefour restaurant Friday night, spraying shards of glass at 21) diners and employees. Police on Saturday afternoon said that no one had claimed responsibility foi the attack the fourth major bombing of a Paris restaurant in 1'.- years - and that they had no leads.

One of the injured patrons, a woman, was in critical condition, authorities said.

"We have absolutely no indication of any kind of racketeering angle in this atfair. so we are assuming it's probably politically motivated. " said a spokesman tor the Secretary ol State for Public .Security The spokesman declined to be named.

Various Islamic fundamentalist groups

have threatened to attack in France unless the government of President Francois Mitterrand withdraws its troops from the the multinational peacekeeping force in Lebanon. Police refused to speculate on a Middle East connection in the attack on Friday.

A spokesman for La Pitie Hospital in Paris said doctors might have to amputate the leg of the critically injured woman, Maurine Chretien-Rudetzki. a commercial director for the French clothing.firm Elizabeth. The spokesman asked not to be named.

The other 11 people who were injured - all patrons at the restaurant were either treated at the scene or hospitalized overnight with minor injuries and released on Saturday. They were five Americans, two Japanese and four French people.

A spokesman for the criminal division of the Judicial Police said it was not known what the bomb was made of

because investigators had "found nothing (tf its remains.

Investigators said the bomb went off under a grating at street level outside the emergency exit (tf the restaurant, one (rf the most expensive in France.

On Aug. 9,1982, six people were killed and 22 injured in a machine gun and grenade attack at Joe Goldenberg's restaurant in a Jewish neighborhood.

On June 20, 1982, 13 people were injured when a bomb exploded near the terrace of a cafe in the Latin Quarter. On Noy. 20 this year. 30 praple were hurt in the bombing of the chic LOree du Bois restaurant in the Bois de Boulogne.

There was also speculation if Friday's bombing was the work of a shadowy Venezuelan-born terrorist known as Carlos, who has threatened to attack French targets unless two suspected terrorists arrested more than a year ago in Paris are freed.

Santa Visits Marines In Beirut

By EILEEN ALT POWELL Associated Press Writer BEIRI'T. Lebanon AP -The bunkers have no chimneys. but Santa Claus nevertheless arrived in Beirut.- his sleigh a camouflaged military ambulance stuffed with some of the 20.0(hi packages Americans have sent the C S .Marines.

"The reindeer had to cover quite a distance to get to you guys this year, shouted the white bearded man in the padded red suit who arrived at the I'.S .Marine ba.'^e Friday, two days before Christmas Marine Chaplain Thomas Falkenthal. with "Silent Night" blaring from a tape deck beside him, then proceeded to visit the bunkers where .Marines eagerly lined

up for their brightly wrapped gifts. .

"Things like this really make it feel like Christmas." said Staff Sgt. Edward Peerenboom. 27. of Milwaukee. Wis.

"It makes you feel good that the people back in the States are thinking of you," said Cpl. Matthew Collins. 23. of Lexington. Ky.. as he opened a box filled with pretzels, cheese crackers and foil-wrapped chocolate .Santas. "This will give me something to munch on later."

Falkenthal. a Roman Catholic priest from Chicago, said he thought the .Marines symbolized the Christmas spirit ol giving and self-sacrifice,

"I think each and everv

one of them realizes that, in spite of the personal danger, what they do means peace for others." he said.

The Marines have received more than 20.000 packages and thousands of holiday cards and letters from schools, church groups, families and individuals in the United States, said Marine spokesman Maj. Dennis Brooks. 38, of Detroit.

Sanaa's visit was one' of several events for the 5.600 Marines assigned to Lebanon as part of the multinational force. Comedian Bob Hope is giving a series of performances on ships offshore, and weekend religious services and a turkey dinner are planned.

Marine volunteers have

been sorting through 15,000 pounds of incoming mail a day to get it ready for distribution to the troops. Brooks said. Often it comes addressed simply: "The Marines. Beirut

"I wont have any excuse not to write letters home," he said, "or to write to the family in Florida that sent this box to thank them for thinking of me. Lance Cpl. Jay Savage, 20. of Atlanta, holding a gift box of homemade cookies, reminisced: "If I was home. I would be sitting around the tree with my parents looking at the fireplace and talking about old times."

A (HRISTMAS GIFT OF I.IFF ... Jesse Jovner of Farmville and his wife Nell share a moment of (hrislnias cheer in his hospital room at Fitt (ount> Memorial Hospital. Jo\ner was injured in a construction accident earl\ in December and

required 2(i units of blood during reparative surgery. Joyner says without the blood, he wouldn't be able to enjoy Christams this \ ear. ^ Reflector Photo Bv .Marv Schulken)

during subsequent treatment lie used nine more units of blood along with additional platelets and other plasma.

.According to director Dick Carney ot the Tar River Blood Center, accidents like Toyner's' requiring large amounts ot blood are not uncommon. He says two or three patients a week at Fitt . .Ueniorja 1. require,. 2ii-plus units ot blood but that the center has np problem filling this need "The blood was here and

''v-'.la-fele. when J&vner needed it." said'Carnev 'it

was not hard for him td get because it was there The system was working."

The ''system" Carney re-, fers to is the blood collection system of the center, which depends on bloodmobiles like the fourth annual Holiday Blood Drive scheduled for Tuesday in Greenville lor its blood needs.

The non-profit Tar River Blood Center provides eastern .North Carolina counties with blood, said Carney, who, noted that Filt C'ounty jsjine ol the largest usees of blood in the area.

Tuesday's bliKid drive is an important one. Carney noted, because it comes at a time hijn    no    h!ood

Pitt County is selected for the after-Christmas'blood drive, he noted, because of Its proximity to blood-prrx'essing facilities, "'When you are in a potential shortage situation, the sooner you get blood to the processor, the. jiooner if liecoraes. usable." Carney said.

Joyner lists the blood he received as one of the reasons he's alive to enjoy Christmas this year. A former donor, he said he had given 12 to 14 pinis before his accident when he decided he needed a rest. "I wish now I'd never missed a time." he said. "Now that I know what it means and what it has meant to me - being alive is what its meant jo me," Joyner added.

Hope Cheers Marines In Lebanon

ABi )ARD THF CSS NFW JFRSKj' AP Like a Busby Berkeley mu.Mcal. the Bob Hope show on Christmas Eve played to an audience of 2.(h) cheering but homesick Marines and sailors beneath the No. :i turret of the battleship New Jersey 's mighty lo-inch guns.

With the skyline ot Beirut only live miles oft to starboard and the tenuous cease-iire still holding,, the big guns capable ot tiring a ton-and-a-halt shell 23 miles never seemed more silent than when singer Ann Jillian led the audience in singing "Silent Night '

During the hymn, the blinking light upon the signal deck messaged ".Merry Christmas" in code to a French warship on

patrol a ievrmiles'away --^------- ----------------

Hope's helicopter lilted-aboard o.ikhi copies ot life Long Beach Press Telegram, the first real hometown news the crew had received since the Navy's only active battleship lett its home port on the California coast June 9 The piercing wolf whistles that greeted actress Brooke Shields, singer Cathy Crosby and Miss I'SA Julie Hayek were a'signal loud and clear that the ship's company has not had liberty ashore in more , than lOO days or since Panama disappeared off the stern on Sept. 11,

All morning long, as stage hands set up the bandstand and amplification equipment. Marines fresh from the beach in camouflage helmets and combat fatigues stormed up the ladders from the landing craft to catch the matinee aboard the 887-foot battlewagon,

"I'm glad I got to come out here ... .My father saw the Bob Hope show at Inchon in Korea." said Marine Pfc. Alan Weinzierl ot Palm Harbor. Fla. who had a Santa Claus doll

taped to his helmet and an Amstel beer coaster inserted in the chinstrap to salute the season.

Weinzierl and his buddies on duty near the Beirut airport had just cut down a bush and decorated it with beer cans tor a Christmas tree in their bunker when they got the word to ship out tor the Hope show, which included some striking dancing such as that tor which the late film director Berkley was noted.

Like every other Marine you meet, they were up to their combat boots in fruit cakes and cookies mailed to them from unknown donors all over America.

"Some of my guys have gained lo pounds since those fruit cakes started piling in just alter Thanksgiving," grumble^ Aarine sargeant. who wanted to remain anonymous foFTear of being mistaken for Scrooge af this time of year but wore the name Kelley on his fatigues.

Actually, except for practice, the grand gray lady of the fleet hasn't fired her big guns m 10 days in a combat situation. The 16-inch guns answered back on Dec. 14 when anti-aircraft units in the hills of Lebanon fired on U.S. reconnaissance planes.

Marines Visit Bethlehem

NICOLAS B.TATRO .Associated Press Writer

BEITHLEHEM, Occupied West Bank (AP) - U.S. servicemen on leave from duty in Lebaium, inlgrims and tourists thronged a heavily-guarded Manger Square Saturday to celebrate Christmas in the town where Jesus was bom.

Israeli troops sealed off roads leading to this town of 20,000 in the Judean hills, and all visitors were searched before entering Manger Square where the festivities were concentrated.

Extra security measures were taken following a spate of grenade attacks this month against churches and mosques in the Jerusalem area. A Moslem prayer leader and a nun were wounded Tuesday when booby-trapped grenades exploded in a mosque and a Greek Orthodox church in a Jerusalem suburb. Police suspect Jewish extremists were responsible,

Soldiers stood on rooftops around the square while others patrolled in front of the Church of the Nativity, site of midnight Mass. More than 3.000 people had gathered in the square before nightfall Saturday.

As the ceremonies began in the morning, girls and boys in scout troops marched to the beat of drums and car-.ried brightly-colored flags across the square.

Pilgrims and tourists lined up to the grotto of the Church of the Nativity, a sixth-century church, which is built where tradition says Jesus was born.

Among the visitors were U.S. Navy sailors on liberty frOm (he USS. Independence, an aircraft carrier which has been off the coast of Leba.non for 65 days, protecting U.S. Marines in the multinational force near Beirut Airport.

"I was awe-struck from the lime I went in to the time 1 left. If hit me that I am a Christian," said John Mason. 22. a sailor aboard the Independence.

Another sailor there was Ricky Nutterutter. 23. who like Mason, is from Jacksonville, Fla.

"1 really wonder if Jesus would approve of all this but it is exciting and all just to be here." Nutterutter said, referring to signs advertising religious articles, Palestinian children hawking candy and hard-boiled eggs and men trying to sell tourists checkered Arab headdresses,

Monsignor Giacomo Giuseppe Beltritti, the Roman Catholic patriarch of Jerusalem, led a procession from the capital to Bethlehem, three miles away-.- The crowds in the square surrounded Beltritti as Christian scouts and a horse guard of mounted police escorted him to the church.

While he was making his way into the square, an Israeli air force helicopter circled overhead. Someone beat a drum - the noise

sounded like a muffled expk)si(Mi - and an Israeli border policeman in the square jumped and nervously scanned the crowds.

In Shepherd's Field, about a mile from Bethldwm, 300 Anglican tourists from Europe and the United States sang carols and heard scripture readings in Endish and Arabi. It is believed an angel appeared to the shep-hereb in the field and tod them Jesus would be born in Bethlehem.

The schedule of evening performances for the square included singing by the Trinity University Choir of San Antonio, Texas, the Chorale de Notre Dame of Bordeaux, France, and a choral group from South Africa.

A screen, 20-by-30 feet, was set up on the wall of the two-story police station in the square, so vistors who could not fit into St. Catherine's chapel, next to the Church of the Nativity, could watch the services.

The mayor of Bethlehem. Elias Freij, a Palestinian Christian, said in an interview that "even though the situation in the Middle East is very terrible ... we

that the message of the of Bethlehem - p^ce On earth - win be fmfilled and that the layers of hatred in the hearts of the people will disappear."

Freij said he expected that celebrations between Christmas Eve and the Orthodox Christmas on Jan. 6

will draw as many as 15J00 visit(.    *

But Bethlehem 'S merchants said they expected fewer touriste this year. Because of unrest ifa the Middle East, said a salesman in a souvenir shop near Man^r Square, tourists are afraid to come. "

Deep

Freeze

Strikes

Nation

; By GRAHAM VINK

Associated Press Writer

Scores* of cities iivered through the coldest Christmas Eve on record as the deep freeze even spread to the South, while some Plains states headed for their coldest December in a cen-lury and powerful snowstorms brewed on both coasts.

Casper, Wyo., broke its record for Dec. 24 by 21 degrees, plunging to a bonO'Shaking 34 below. Dubuque, Iowa, at 25 below zero and Toledo, Ohio, at 15 below posted their coldest-fever December temperatures. And Chicago broke a 111-year-old record for the day before Christmas with an early morning temperature of 25 below, two degrees chillier than the old one.

Weve had record temperatures for the day broken in 21 states and 60 cities, some dating back to 1872," said Harry Gordon of the National Severe Storms Forecast Center in Kansas City, Mo.

; The death toll since Dec. 17 ^om the frigid weather jessed 140 - some victims among the homeless, others jmong the elderly, most in (j-affic accidents. In Detroit.

q 28-year-old mother of two foi

was found frozen to a chain-fink fence outside her home; ih Chicago, the body, of a 93-year-old man who went qut without a coat was found inside the double doors of his apartment building.

' Its just plumb miserable, said Doug McCloskey. q sheriffs deputy in Wisdom, Mont., where temperatures were 55 below. Two Montana ^nitation workers picked up i Christmas gift bottle of 90-proof whiskey - and found it frozen solid.

' A powerful storm bore down Saturday on California, packing snow fur iiie noriii. Cain for the central coast and beavy snow in the Sierra Nevada by nightfall. Blizzard warnings were posted fojr Oregons Cascade Range anchi Columbia Gorge, and heavy snow fell in northern Utah.

; An Atlantic storm moving up the cost from North Caro-fina was expected to bring up to a foot of snow in New England - its heaviest Snowfall of the season. Plizzard conditions hit the Great Lakes region and virtually all the Plains states were under travelers advisories for gusting winds qnd blowing snow.

The weather ser\'ice said temperatures might moder-te slightly early next week, but Gordon said, I dont see any reason why were not going to break more temperature records for a couple more days.

; The record lows Saturday ranged from 34 below in Casper to 16 above in San Antonio, Texas - that citys coldest Dec. 24 since a 23-degree mark set 30 years ago. Detroit and Cleveland reached 8 below, Kansas City blunged to 11 below, breaking a 1924 record. Omaha, Neb., reached 18 below, the poldest for the date since 1879.

' For the fourth consecutive day, Tulsa and Oklahoma City set new lows for the date of 2 degrees, and the weather service said it may be Oklahomas coldest December of the century. So far this month, the states tem-;perature has averaged 29.5 !degrees; the old record of 31 ; degrees was set in 1909.

Even along the usually 1 temperate Gulf Coast, it was .beginning to feel like : Christmas. The mercury j hqvered near freezing along ' the Louisiana coast and folks in Jackson, Miss., shivered ; at 14 degrees.

Middle East And Arms Control

Reagan Optimistic Over Year Ahead

liie W*lno* of Christinas arise that first Holy Wght. May a

the glorlet of the holiday season be yours today and always.

B> JAMES GERSTEXZ.WC .Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) -President Reagan, in a show of year-end optimism, sees new hope for opening his dormant Middle East peace initiative, and says the world is further from a confrontation between the two superpowers than in the past.

He said in an interview Friday he no longer believes the widespread unrest in Lebanon must die down before progress can be made on an overall peace plan, and suggested it is time for King Hussein of Jordan to enter regional peace talks.

In the year-end discussion that ranged over the economy. Central America, the Middle East and U.S-Soviet relations, the president said the deterrent effect of the nation's military buildup has moved the United Slates and the Soviet Union back from possible confrontation.

"If the Soviet government wants peace, there will be no war. because I know for a fact that no other country wants war with the Soviet Union." he declared. "The ball is really in their court. If they want peace, they can have It. "

Indicating that U.S.-Soviet relations are better than they

appear, the president said "there has been, lets say. more heat in rhetoric. There has not been more heat in tt^ actual relationship."

He said he thinks there is a goal chance for progress in the Middle East based on the proposal he made Sept. 1. 1982, for a Palestinian "entity on the West Bank, under Jordanian authority.

Saying he once "believed that settlement in Lebanon had to precede going further" with his 1982 plan, the president added: "I don't think thats necessarily true now. I think enough progress has been made there that we can go forward with the peace movement."

Although he declined to characterize talks between Yasser Arafat, the Palestine Liberation Organization leader, and Hosni Mubarak, president of Egypt, as a "breakthrough", he said he was optimistic because they represented Palestinian discussions with a key Arab leader whose country has made peace with Israel. He disagreed with an Israeli assertion that Mubarak's talks with Arafat last week violated the Camp David peace agreements.

"Who is better able to try and bring in another person into the peace process than

someone who has made the change that Egypt has made?" the president asked.

I think what President Mubarak is doing is talking to him about returning to where he was earlier, making contact with King Hussein and getting those peace negotiations, our peace proposal, underway again," Reagan said.

Asked if he thought there was a good chance this would happen, he replied. "I really do."

Asked whether Arafat, who was forced out of his last holdout in Lebanon by radical. Syrian-backed factions, remained popular with the Palestinians. Reagan said. I can't believe that the millions of Palestinians are going to choose" the radical group.

The president said he had not seen a copy of the Pentagon report on the truck bombing of the U.S. Marine headquarters in Beirut and had not been briefed on it. although the 166-page document had been delivered to the White House several hours earlier.

That report is said to cite failures in the Marine chain of command as contributing to the Oct. 23 attack that led to the deaths of 241 U.S. servicemen

Doomsday Clock Challenged

WASHIN'GTO.N i.APi -President Reagan is taking issue with scientists who have indicated the world is moving closer to nuclear war by placing the hands of the so-called "Doomsday Clock" at three minutes before midnight.

"Maybe the scientists kiiuvA iiioie about science. " Reagan said in an interview. "From the standpoint of the power of the weapons, yes. they are more powerful, they

Kirkpatrick Will Remain On Job

WASHIN'GTO.N lAPi -Jeane J, Kirkpatrick, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, is not leaving her job. President Reagan says.

The ambassador was said to have been interested in returning to Washington on a permanent basis, and when she visited Reagan on Thursday, rumors were flowing that she was about to resign.

Asked during an interview on Friday whether the ambassador was leaving, Reagan said. "No, Jeane came in as she has every year."

Administration officials said the visit was a routine end-of-year call on the president bv the ambassador.

are more destructive on both sides than they were before. .Maybe looking at it from a scientist's viewpoint, that moves up their Doomsdav Clock."

"But, they're not involved in the diplomatic and political end of this as we are," Reagan added, referring to

1'c

v.o.'ovvici aims icuuviiuii

negotiations.

When it was suggested that he had "three minutes, now, to make a decision on war and peace," the president replied:

"In the Bible, weren't we told that a long period of time was only a moment, or onlv a second, to God?. Each

minute on that clock - is that weeks'. Is that months' Is that years' They've never said what it is. "he said.

The clock has been used by scientists for 36. years to portray the danger of nuclear war, .Midnight is considered Doomsday.

The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, a publication put out by 46 scientists, made the announcement about the clock last week.

Reagan made his remarks in an interview Friday with reporters representing The Associated Press, United Press International. Reuters and Agence France-Press.

"There is no way to discount responsibility." he said. "As commander-in-chief...the opwation could not have gone forward without my approval. And so, in that sense, I think the investigation was being very thorough."

Asked if he knew what was in the document, he said, "no more than I read in the papers."

The president, wearing a gray-blue suit, white shirt and blue print tie, appeared relaxed as he wound up his last working day of the year in the Oval Office, sitting in a white wing chair and discussing the years events with four reporters representing The Associated Press. United Press International. Reuters, and Agence France-Presse. On Tuesday. Reagan and his wife are flying to California for a week's vacation.

Asked what he did wrong and what he would have done differently last year, the president declined to mention specify events, but said, "I think mere are always things that you'll think you did wrong.

When pressed, he reached back to 1982 and said he "probably could get incensed about" his support for a $98 billion three-year tax increase that was enacted.

The president said that, although the U.S.-Soviet talks in Geneva. Switzerland, intended to reduce long-range and intermediate-range nuclear weapons had broken off with no date set for their resumption, "we haven't broken off communications."

"1 believe we are further from a confrontation possibility because of the deter

rent capability of the United States and our allies at this point," be said. I think there was a far more unstable condition when we had let-our own strigth detoioate to the point that there was a window of vuhmbility.

The president said the Soviets Mve to see that these n^otiations are in their interest as well as ours, and described the current difficulties as almost a part of the negotiating process.

Reagan said he was "a little disturbed by the tendency of so many in this country to seem to feel that somehow were at fault, when they (the Soviets) are the ones who left the table without setting a date for return,"

He reiterated his determination to proceed with the deployment of Pershing II and cruise missiles as part of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization weapons modernization in western Europe.

The president took issue with nuclear scientists, who say the hands on the figurative "Doomsday Clock {lave moved to three minutes before midnight, an indication that the world is closer to nuclear war.

Maybe the scientists know more about science" and the destructive power of new nuclear weapons, he said, "but theyre not involved in the diplomatic and political end of this as we are."

Asked about the prospects for an arms agreement before next years presidential election, Reagan said, with a smile, "Whoever our candidate may be, I dont think any decisions on a

sil>iect tins kind should be

(H) our on our side, on toe basis of...politkial coQsideraticQS. The presidoit has said he will disclose on Jan. 29 whether be will seek a sec-owl term.

Asked what he wanted to happen next year, the x-esi-dent said he hoped no tax increase would be necessary

- he has already declared there would be lume in 1984

- and that he can achieve more control over spending.

Runway Crash Leaves 7 Hurt

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - A fuel-heavy cargo jets fiery crash into a commuter plane, which injured seven people, occurred as the jet tried to take off in the wrong direction on the wrong runway in thick fog, investigators said.

The crash Friday leR a trail of burning debris and spewed smoke 2,000 feet into the air.

Despite damage that left both planes virtually destroyed, the jets cockpit and the commuter plan^es fuselage somehow remained intact, allowing those on l)oard to survive. The seven pwple injured were aboard the twm-engine commuter plane, officials said.

.The Korean Air Lines DC-10 jet laden with an estimated 160,000 pounds of fuel plowed into the Piper Navajo, exploded in flames, and careened through steel landing-light towers at Anchorage International Airport - coming to a stop in a wooded hollow.

The Navajo, owned by Southcentral Air. was carrying a pilot, co-pilot and seVen passengers, none of them identified. Anchorage Fire Department Inspector Lee Crossman said. The worst injury was a fractured shoulder, he said. Two of the injured were treated and released, one was examined and the others declined examination. officials said.

Authorities on the scene said the three KAL crew members escaped injury. However, hospital officials said they were admitted to Pfovidence Hospital for the night. They were listed in fgir condition, but the hospital would provide no other details.

The DC-lOs nose and tail s&tion were relatively intact, but the rest was virtually consumed by the fire.

One wing was shorn completely from the Navajo, and the other was sliced off near the engine. Its tail was smashed away, but the cabin area was relatively undamaged.

According to Paul Steucke of the Federal Aviation Administration, the Navajo was waiting for better visibility at the west end of Runway 6 Left before taking off on a 40-mile flight south to Kenai. Fog was limiting visibility to about one-eighth of a mile.

KAL Flight 084. en route to Los Angeles, was given the option of taking off from one of two runways. 6 Left or 32, and chose 32, Steucke said. The jet was advised to proceed to that runway, but did i, not. he said.

Green Trial Is Top State Story In 1983

The historic bribery and conspiracy trial of Lt. Gov. Jimmy Green was ranked the top state news story of 1983 ny North Carolina members (rf The Associated Press.

Green, who was acquitted by a Wake County Superior Court jury in October after a two-week trial, was the first lieutenant governor in the state to stand trial on criminal charges since the post was created in 1868.

It was the first full criminar trial televised and photographed under North Carolinas experiment with courtroom cameras.

Green faced the jury after nearly a year of having his name mentioned in connection with a federal investiga

tion (rf politial corruption in southeastern Nopth Carolina.

AP newsplpef and Ixoadcast members voted enactment of the state's tou^ anti-drunken driving law as the second most impwlant news story of 1983.

'The law spawned countless stories from its conception throu^ implementation at roadsides aroundJJIorth Carolina. Hk law, imcfa raised the drinking age and toughened penalties for drunken drivers, was the centerpiece of the longest legislative session ever.

The third-ranked story brought a tragic flair to the states news. A suicide bomber drove a dynamiteladen truck into Marine headquarters in Beirut,

Lebanon, on Oct. 23, killing 240 Marines.

Williamston Dominates Squad

By WOODY PEELE Reflector Sports Editor Williamston High School, which went to the eastern finals of the 3-A Division II playoffs, dominates this year's 1%3 Daih M/ecfor All-Area team.

This year. too. the team became a little more exclusive with the addition of two more football teams to the coverage area. Washington and ChoCowinity.

The area now covered by the team includes 11 high schools in Pitt. Martin. Greene and Beaufort counties The Tigers, who finished the season with just three losses in 13 games, landed seven members on the team, five on offense and two on defense. HSYold Robinson, who led the team into the playoffs, was named as the Area Coach of the Year.

A year ago, Robinson's team was shaken by internal problems. Several players were dismissed from the squad for disciplinary reasons and Robinson then found himself facing a rebellion by most dt the remaining senior class members of the team. They wanted the dropped players reinstated - or else.

Robinson opted for the "or else" and collected the uniforms of the rebels, leaving him with a largly underclass-

dominated team of sophomores and juniors. Those players respected the authority of the coach and over the rest of the year they failed to win. but they gained the respect of everyone in the' area.

This year, all. of that paid off in dividends, and for Robinson's efforts, he reaps the Coach of the Year honors.

Selected with hirti are Williamston players James Ward, quarterback; Michael Peele. receiver; Greg Pearsall and Brinson Green, offensive linemen;

-Rodney Con.ner, place kicker; Donnell Lawrence, defensive lineman, and Donnell Griffin, linebacker.

Four other schools each placed three players on the 24-man squad. Ayden-Grifton, Jamesville, Washington and Farmville Central each listed three, while D.H. Conley landed two, and Chocowinity. Rose, and Greene Central each placed one player on the team. Roanoke and North Pitt failed to land a player this year.

Named from Ayden-Grifton were running back Kelvin Harris, offensive lineman Morris Bell, and defensive lineman Doug Coley. Roy Hooker, a running back, represents Chocowinity.

Terps Iron Out Eagles' Press

COLLEGE PARK. Md I .\P) - Maryland had 12 days to prepare for the heralded press of si.xth-ranked Boston College, and the Terps handled it with amazing ease.

With point guard Jeff Adkins scoring 23 points and handing off five assists, the eighth-ranked Terps rolled to a 15-point halftime lead and downed the previously unbeaten Eagles 89^76 Saturday.

"Their press hurt them more than it did us." said .Adkins, who didn't learn he would start at the point until just before the nationally televiseS game. "We broke it and scored. "

"1 hit a couple J's i jumpers)." .Adkins said about the start of his ll-for-16 effort from the floor. "They were laying off me. so 1 took it on myself to take the shot. 1 got hot.. it happens."

Maryland. 6-1. jumped ahead 17-4 at the start as Boston College missed six of its first seven attempts. The Eagles shot only 26 percent in the first half, which ended with the Terps ahead 40-2,5.

"We might have been a little quick with our shots." said Boston College Coach Gary Williams. "When you get the ball in that tight, you've got to be able to score "Maryland did a good job against the press." Williams

said. They passed over with their size. "

"This is one of the better ballgames weve played since Tve been here." said Lefty Driesell. now in his 15th year at Maryland.

"It's a good Christmas and birthday present for me. " said Driesell. who turns 52 on Christmas Day.

The Terps built the lead over the Big East foes, although Ben Coleman, their leading scorer and rebounder, played only three minutes of the first half after incurring three fouls.

Boston College. 7-1. made a brief run late in the second half behind the shooting of Michael Adams, who scored 16 of his 22 points in the final seven minutes.

Len Bias scored 19 points for Maryland and Jay Murphy had 18 for Boston College, which entered the game with an 87.5-point scoring average.

Allison, Sneva Capture Titles

By MIKE HARRIS AF Molorsporis Writer

Bobby Allison and Tom Sneva. two of the most popular race drivers around, finally captured long-sought championships in 195 Allison, who turned 46 in December, held off a late-season effort by Darrell_ Waltrip to win the .NASCAR Grand National stock car championship after 22 years of trying and falling short The craggy-faced driver from Huey town. Ala . who had finished second in the Winston Cup competition five times, finally got over the hump by winning six races, finishing ail but three of 3o Grand National events and winding up in the topUiin 18 of them Both Allison and Waltrip. who also won six races, tinished the season with more than S800.000 in earnings, the first time in NASCAR history two men have gotten above that figure m the same year.

It was an eventful year in Grand National racing, with three-time season champion Cale Yarborough - now a part-timer on the circuit -getting the early headlines by becoming the first man to drive a stock car, to a lap averaging more than 200 mph at Daytona International Speedway He then flipped the car on the way to a second fast lap. damaging it beyond repair and giving up the pole position for the SI million Daytona .500,

Undaunted. Yarborough went on to win N.ASCAR's biggest race in his backup car.

Richard Petty, the seven-time Grand National champion, inched closer to the coveted 200-victory mark, with three triumphs in 1983 giving him 198. The last of those victories, coming at Charlotte. N.C., in October. was overshadowed by e\ents following the race.

The 45-year-old Petty was found to have driven the entire race with an illegal engine and to have finished the race on an illegal set of tires. NASCAR let the victory stand, but fined Petty a record S35.000 and took away 102 championship points.

Highlights of the Grand National season included first victories by youngsters Ricky Rudd and Bill Elliott, the second career triumph by youthful Terry Labonte and the third by budding star Tim Richmond Sneva. a two-time national driving champion, held off eventual CART Indy-car series champion A1 Unser to win the Indianapolis 500. Sneva had finished second three times in the world's richest auto race, which carried a purse of $2 million,

A bit of controversy and added excitement was stirred into the prestigious event when 21-year-old A1 Unser Jr tried to help his father win a , fourth Indy 500 by blocking Sneva on the track for more than 20 laps. Sneva eventually , wiis able to squeeze past the

high-speed blockade and regain control.

Other young drivers grabbed big chunks of the spotlight in Indy-car racing in 4-983, too. with Italian rookie TeoFabi leading the way.

The 28-year-old Fabi gained the full attention of the racing world by coming out of nowhere to win the pole position at Indianapolis with a qualifying mark of 207.395 mph.

Fabi, who had a brief an^l unsuccessful, try at Formula One racing the previous year, went on to win six poles and four races, including the Pocono .500. one of the Indy-car Triple Crown events.

Another Indy-car rookie. John Paul Jr\ won the Michigan 500. the other event in the CART Triple Crown, Among the veterans, both the senior Unser and Mario Andretti broke long victory .droughts.

A.J. Foyt failed in his attempt to win a fifth Indy 500. but he did end 16 years of retirement in the sports car ranks in spectacular fashion, combining with two French drivers to win the Daytona'24 Hours endurance race. He later co-drove with Hurley Haywood to another sports car victory m a two-hour event at Daytona The 48-year-old Foyt, whose lather and long-time crew chief died of cancer the day Foyt qualified for his record 26th Indy 500. nearly saw his career end during the summer when he suffered a compressed vertebrae But the determined Texan came back to drive in a sports car race at the end of the season and said he planned to be back at Indy, as well as driving in up to 10 Grand National races and the 24-hour event at Davtona, in 1984.

Brazilian Nelson Piquet drove a Brabham lo his second Formula One world championship, while Ferrari won the Grand Prix manufacturers' title.

Duran's Return Highlights Year

ByED.SdllVl.ERJR.

AP Sports Writer

Roberto Duran came back m 1983 from a boxing disgrace and Sugar Ray Leonard announced he was back following a six-round exhbition. his first-public appearance in a ring in almost two years.

Leonard's decision to return boxing was announced Dec. 10, one day before unbeaten Larry Holmes resigned the World Boxing Council heavyweight championship. Holmes said he would campaign as champion of the fledgling International Boxing Federation The 27-year-old Leonard, who retired Nov, 9, 1982. five months after undergoing surgery for a detached retina of the left eye. said after sparring three rounds each against Herman Epps and Odell Leonard at .Andrews Air Force Base near Washington that he was coming back not tor a partaicular fight, but to tight, period.

The former undisputed welterweight champion said he would seek the welterweight title, and also mentioned a third fight with Duran and a challenge to Marvelous Marvin Hagler. the undisputed middleweight champion. The welterweight title was split after Leonard's retirement, and during the year Milton McCrory became ihe WBC champion and Donald Curry became the World Boxing Association champion.

Duran tarnished his "Hands of Stone" image badly when he quit in the eighth round and lost the WBC welterweight title in a rematch with Leonard Nov, 25, 1980. But in 1983, he became the seventh man to win three world championships.

After losing two of five fights since quitting against Leonard, Duran, with a new manager, old friend Luis Spada. knocked out former WBA welterweight champion Pipino Cuevas. Then on June 16. on his 32nd birthday, the king of the lightweights for

most of the 197us became a triple champion by stopping Davey .Moore in the eighth round at Madison Square Garden and winning the WBA junior middleweight title.

Duran bid to become the first rnan to win titles iu four weight classes when he challenged Hagler. But Hagler. in.his third defense of the year, scored a 15-round unanimous - but close -decision over Duran, who nevertheless restored his image as a fighter.

Alexis Arguello also tried to win a fourth title, but the 3U-year-old Nicaraguan failed for the second time against Aaron Pryor in a bid for the WBA junior welterweight title. The man who was a featherweight, junior lightweight and lightweight champion then retired.

The 34-year-old Holmes said the fight he wants before retiring is one against Gerne Coetzee of South Africa, who knocked out Michael "Dynamite" Dokes in the luth round Sept. 23 to win the WBA title and become the first white heavyweight champion since Ingemar Johannson of Sweden in 1960. It was Coetzee's third try at the WBA title.

Holmes said he was relinquishing the WBC title he won in 1978 because he refused a mandatory defense against top-ranked Greg Page in February or March for the 82.55 million called for in a contract with promoter Don King. The WBC would have withdrawn title recognition from Holmes if he had not fought Page.

Holmes fought four times in 1983. His last match against Marvis Frazier Nov. 25 was not sanctioned as a title bout by the WBC.

CHAMPAIGN. 111. (AP) -Freshman guard James Blackmon banked in a 15-foot jump shot with two seconds left Saturday to give No. 2-ranked Kentucky a 56-54 nonconference college basketball victory over upstart Illinois.

Quinn Richardsons second basket for the Illini. a long jumper from the right side with 19 seconds remaining, tied the game at 54-54 and set the stage for Blackmon s late heroics,.

The Wildcats then called time out with eight seconds to go to set up a final play. Kentucky calmly passed the ball around the perimeter before going to Blackmon in the right corner for the winning field goal. Blackmon's basket gave him six points for the game.

Center Sam Bowie and guard Jim Master, with 11 points each, shared scoring honors for the Wildcats, who boosted their record.

Illinois, which got a game-high 19 points from Doug Altenberger. lost for the first time in nine outings.

With Bowie playing sparingly in the first half, Illinois moved to a 33-26 lead at the intermission behind 14 points from Altenberger and 11 from Efrem Winters. But the Wildcats went to the boards mor aggressively to begin the second half and pulled ahead 40-39 with 13:29 left to play.

The lead changed hands several times until the eight-minute mark, when Kentucky ran off a string of five consecutive baskets -highlighted by a three-point play by Bowie - lo take a 53-48 lead ith 3:18 remaining.

Bruce Douglas scored at 2:43 to pull Illinois within 53-50. But Dicky Beal sank one ot two free throws at 1:24 before Altenberger responded with a short jumper at 1:04 to close within 54-52.

The game was nearly 20 minutes late in starting because none ot the three Big Ten conference referees assigned to the game was able to make it to the .Assembly Hall because of snow-clogged roads across central Illinois.

Three local high school referees had to be recruited to officiate the game

Outside the .Assembly Hall, the temperature at ganie-time was 10 degrees below zero, and minus 40, with the wind chill factor. Still. 7.651 fans were on hand for the contest.

manager, a position Star held when first appointed.

The appointment, an- , nounced at^a news conference, came nine years to ; the (tey after the National Football League club announced hiring Bart Star as head coach.

Parins said Gregg would be given a five-year cimtract and be given full re-sponsiblity for football operations."

The reign of Star, who quarterbacked the Packers to victories in the first two Super Bowl games in the 1960s. encted with his firing Monday, the day after the Packers completed an 8-8 season with a 23-21 loss to Chicago that eliminated them from playoff contention.

Als dismissed were all the members of Star's coaching staff, although all the coaches except Starr were ' invited to seek new jobs with the team if they wished.

The Bengals ended this season last Saturday with a 20-14 loss to Minnesota. Their 7-9 record was the first losing one since 1980,

"This football game was pretty much typical of Cincimiati Bei^als football all year long, especially the first half of the season." Gregg said after the game. We made one million mistakes.

"I am so ha{?)y this foot* ball season is over." Gregg * also said after the game. ' "Ive never been happier about a s^son endings this ^ early before in my life."

Gregg had taken the: Bengals from last {dace in: the American Footlall Conference to first place in just two seasons. The team had a 12-4 regular season recorjJ- in 1981 in winning the AFC championship.

Bengals Understand, Worry About Morale

CINCINNATI (AP) -Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Reggie Williams says he understands why Forrest Gregg left the National Football League club to take the head coaching job at Green Bay. but hes upset about what will happen to team morale.

"I can understand his desire to return to Green Bay. where he established a great career." Williams. 29. said from his home after learning that Gregg had accepted the position left open by the firing of Bart Starr.

"As events like this continue to occur, it becomes more and more frustrating, " Williams said, referring to the unstable makeup of the team roster. "There are at least a dozen other ball players in a position to leave."

Gregg showed some of that frustration last Tuesday, when he said in his end-of-season press conference he would crack down next year on players who complained about their contract status.

Four players are eligible to sign with the United States Football League. The team has lost offensive coordinator Lindy Infante, who signed with with USFL before training camp. Tight end Dan Ross and wide receiver Cris Col-linsworth signed future contracts with USFL teams.

"I want players entering their option years to make up

their minds before we get into training camp about what they're going to do." Gregg had' said. Theyre either for me or against me."

Gregg had also said in an earlier interview. I cannot talk to anyone as long as I'm under contract. Gregg had one year left on his Cincinnati contract when he signed with Green Bay.    "

Williams said he thought Gregg was being straightforward.

"I surely doubt personally if knew the job was open during the season. " Williams said. Bart Starr was dismissed Moiiddy. The Bengals season had ended by then.

Williams, who was voted Iw Bengals fans the 1982 Player of the Year, said the team will continue to fight despite the losses. He wouldn't give an opinion on who should or could replace Gregg.

"I admire the management of the Bengals for letting him go," Williams said, referring to the contract. Williams said that Gregg's joining the Packers would let him "fulfill his dreams."

Paul E. Brown, vice president and general manager of

the Bengals. said: "We felt that with his relationship with the Packers that he deserved a chance to consider their offer..."

"Forrest Gregg was an oiit* standing coach to the Bengals r He contribted so much to our team, and we are particularly grateful to him. Any time you have a coach who takes you to the Super Bowl, you have to have someone special '

The Bengals will begin immediately looking for a replacement. team spokesman A1 Heim said Saturday.

Gregg played for Green Bay under Vince Lombardi. And Gregg carried the Bengais cO the 1981 AFC championship.

Pro footbali became a two-party contest in 1983. and the older member of the pair lost some of its lustre of infallibility.

After nearly a decade without competition for the fans dollar, after nearly half a season without games in 1982 due to a players strike, the National Football League found a new league and fewer fans waiting when 1983 arrived.

The United States Football League made a big splash before it ever played a game with the signing of undergraduate Herschel Walker, the Heisman Trophy winner from the University of Georgia.

It was one of the few highlights of the USFL's inaugural season. For most of its 12 teams and most of its 18 weekends, empty seats and low television ratings were commonplace. Still, when its first season ended, it expanded, adding six franchises.

As the year began, the NFL engaged in a one-time-only Super Bowl Tournament. an offshoot of the strike settlement in which an un-precented 16 of the leagues 28 teams participated in the playoffs. For the first time in NFL history, teams with losing records (Detroit and Cleveland) were in postseason play.

Grid Year Ends As Began

, 1983 began with a dispute between Penn State and Southern Methodist over college footballs national c-hampionship and ended with Nebraska and Texas making similar claims.

, In January. Paul "Bear Bryant: whose teams _al MaVyland. Kentucky. Texas A&M and Alabama won a record 323 games, passed ^ay at the age of 69. less ^an a month after announcing his retirement and turnip the reins at Alabama over'% Say Perkins.

HI December. Coach Rex Rockery of Memphis State -along with an assistant coach, one of his players and the pilot -was killed in the crash of a {Srivate plane taking him to a banquet in Lawrenceburg. Tenn.

-During the year, there seemed to l)e more sentiment than ever for a major-college playoff to decide the national champion. And waiting in the wings was a Supreme Court decision that, many said, could hasten a playoff system.

On Jan. 1. 1983. second-ranked Penn State defeated No. 1 Georgia 27-23 in the Sugar Bowl to win its first national title - although its 11-1-record included a 42-21 )asting by Alabama, the worst OSS ever suffered by a team destined to wind up No. 1.

The voting brought howls fcom SM, jiihich finished As.-the nations only undefeated team with an 11-0-1 mark but made the mistake of playing a 1717 tie with Arkansas late in the regular season.

And as 1983 ticked away, top-ranked Nebraska (12-0) and runner-up Texas (ll-O) were well into their bowl preparations - but not for a game against each other. Nebraska was to meet fifth-ranked Miami in the Orange Bowl, with Texas facing No. 7 Georgia in the Cotton Bowl.

Once again. SMU drew the short straw. Despite a 10-1 record, its only setnack a 15-12 squeaker against Texas, the sixth-ranked Mustangs were ignored by the major bowls and had to settle mr a Sun Bowl date with unranked Alabama, which finished 7-4 in

pickey Agrees I To Contract

Perkins first season as Bryants successor.

As a result. SMU Coach Bobby Collins said he would "use whatever pull I have to fight for a playoff system.

Collins received some support when a CBS poll foiind a majority of major-college coaches favored some sort of jKSseasoiiplayo.>i

The network polled head coaches at 101 of the 105 Division I-A schools. Of the total. 58 favored a playoff. 37 were opposed and six were undecided.

Meanwhile. Nebraska ran away with regular-season honors. The Cornhuskers opened with a 44-6 rout of defending national champion Penn State in the inaugural Kickoff Classic and tacked on 11 more victories, including routs of 84-13 over Minnesota. 63-7 over Syracuse. 69-19 over Colorado. 72-29 over Iowa State and 67-13 over Kansas. They scored 624 points, more than any team in history, and were tested only by Oklahoma State (14-10) and Oklahoma (28-21).

With an Orange Bowl triumph over Miami. Nebraska could become the first team to be ranked No. 1 from the AP preseason ratings to the final postbowl poll.

Texas compiled its perfect record with the nations No. 1 defense, yielding only 212.0

yards and 9.5 points per game.

'I dont think they (Nebraska) deserve it any more than we do. Texas Coach Fred Akers said. "I think that either one of us could present a great case for it. unless someones willing to announce that the national championship will be decided by who , scores the mo^t points.

Others with a shot at the national championship were third-ranked Auburn, which played Michigan in the Sugar Bowl; No. 4 Illinois, which tackled UCLA in the Rose Bowl, and Miami.

Conference champions included Nebraska (Big Eight). Texas (Southwest). Auburn (Southeastern). Illinois (Big Ten). Brigham Young (Western Athletic). Maryland (Atlantic Coast) and CLA (Pacific-10).

BYU averaged a record 58.4.2 yards a game and Steve Young, the Cougars quarterback, established an individual mark of 395.1 yards per game. Youngs completion percentage of 71.33 also was a record.

finished 8-1 for the league's best record and survived the first round. The New York Jets beat LA in the second round, only to be shut out 14-0 by Miami in the AFC title game. Washington, with John Riggins picking up steam each week, defeated Minnesota in the second round and routed Dallas 31-17 for the NFC championship.

And on Jan. 30 - the latest date ever for an NFL championship - with Riggins setting a rushing record of 166 yards, the Redskins defeated Miami 27-17 in Super Bowl XVII for their first league title since 1942.

Although fans stayed away en masse when the 1982 season resumed, the NFL was confident theyd be back in 83. But in the six months before the opening of training camp, the league was stung several times.

The Los Angeles Raiders, who successfully challenged the league by moving from Oakland in 1982. and the LA Memorial Coliseum won nearly $50 million in damages from an Los Angeles jury. The league appealed.

Baltimore quarterback Art Schlichter admitted to running up gambling debts of $350,000. He was suspended by Commissioner Pete Rozelle for the season.

Four players defensive end Ross Browner and fullback Pete Johnson of Cincinnati, nose tackle Greg Stemrick of Houston and linebacker E.J. Junior of St. Louis were suspended for four games by Rozelle because of their involvement with cocaine.

Safety Tony Peters of the Washington Redskins pleaded guilty to taking part in a cocaine sale, received a suspended sentence in court and was suspended for at least one season by Rozelle. ,

The Dallas Cowboys were mentioned in a drug probe and "Americas Team became known derisively as "South Americas Team.

According to published re-ports. Leonard Tose, owner of The Phiiadepia Eagles, ran up hundreds of thousands of dollars in gambling debts. He also engaged in a costly battle to retain ownership of the franchise.

The USFL. scoffed at because of its "offseason format, emerged with television and player contracts in hand. Along with some NFL has-beens and nevei-wases were a smattering of rookies projected as pro stars no matter where they played -Kelvin Bryant. Anthony Carter. Trumaine Johnson. David Greenwood and Craig James. And as the year progressed the USFL added a few NFL stars for the future -Cris Collinsworth. Joe Cribbs. Dan Ross. Doug Williams and Garv Barbara.

During the year the leagues wound up briefly in court when Arkansas running back Gary Anderson signed with Tampa Bay of the USFL and then San Diego of the NFL. The court ruled Anderson belonged to Tampa Bay.

And in December, the two leagues collided again when the USFLs Houston Gamblers and NFLs Detroit Lions each insisted they had signed Billy Sims, a running back with the Lions, to a five-year contract.

The USFL gained or lost massive credibility - depending on ones outlook with the signing of Walker. The new league, like the the NFL. had pledged to refrain from raiding college campuses. Then it pulled a reverse. Commissioner Chet Simmons saying Walker was a special case. Much of the publicity was negative - and Walkers impact was minimal. After some big crowds turned out to watch him early in the season, ticket sales and ratings dropped precipitously.

On July 18, before a paid crowd of 46.535 in 75,123-seat Mile High Stadium in Denver, the Michigan Panthers defeated the Philadelphia Stars 24-22 for the first USFL title. In November. Toronto ended Edmontons five-year domination of the Canadian Football League, defeating British Columbia 48-17 to win the Grey Cup.

Stanford quarterback John Elway. whom the USFL had wooed, hard, long and unsuccessfully. was the NFL's No. 1 draft choice, by Baltimore. But he strong-armed the Colts into trading him to Denver and became a million-dollar-a-year rookie, to the consternation of some lesser-paid veterans. He was benched early in the season but later regained the starting job and led Denver into the playoffs.

Terry Bradshaw missed all but one game as Pittsburghs quarterback and Dan Fouts missed most of San Diegos. Not one regular quarterback made it through the season without some bench time. Still, the offense took control wTfh some unprecedented numbers, and that - along with the strikes aftermath, the drugs, the USFL and other factors - was blamed for a dip in NFL attendance and ratings.

As Franco Harris closed in on Jim Browns all-time rushing record, the 47-year-old Brown said - not quite seriously - hed make a comeback to keep it. George Blandas only response was congratulatory when Jan Stenerud broke his all-time field-goal record.

Seattle, with Chuck Knox its new head coach, made its playoff debut, leaving hard-luck New Orleans the nly team never to have a winning season or a postseason game. Other new head coaches had

mixed results. John Robinson's Los Angeles Rams made into the playoffs, thanks in part to record running by-rookie Eric Dickerson. But Kay Stephensons Buffalo Bilis. John Mackovics Kansas City Chiefs. Bill Parcells New York Giants. Marion Campbells Atlanta Falcons and Joe Waltons Jets failed to do so. The Jets did,make a move elsewhere, though - to New Jersey, starting in 1984

Ed Biles was fired as Houstons head coach during the season, his interim replacement. Chuck Studley, quit at the end of the year, and Bart Starr, a hero as Green Bays quarterback during 1956-71. was fired after nine years as their coach. And as the new year approached, two-time Coach' of the Year Joe Gibbs and his Redskins set their sights on another Super Bowl.

Trophy Possibles Clash In Liberty

MEMPHIS. Tenn (AP) -When Notre Dames Fighting Irish and Boston Colleges Eagles square off Thursday night in the 25th renewal of the Liberty Bowl game, two potential Heisman Trophy winners will be on the field The Eagles will send Doug Flutie. a 5-foot-9. 176-pound junior who is equally adept as a passer or runner, out as quarterback. Notre Dame will counter with Allen Pinketl. a 5-9, 184-pound sophomore running back who scored 16 touchdowns and rolled up 1.394 yards in what was for the Irish only a niediocre 6-4-1 season.

Both players have been tagged as Heisman-quality threats. ^

Flutie. an all-around athlete who probably could have won a scholarship as a baseball or basketball player, completed 177 of 345 pass attempts this year for 2.724 yards and 17 touchdowns.

He won the Eagles starting quarterback job in the fourth game of the 1981 season bypassing for 135 yards and a touchdown against Penn State. He finished his freshman year with 105 completions in 192 attempts for 1,652 yards andlO touchdowns.

Last year, he rolled up 520 yards passing against Penn State and finished the year Wfth 2:(43 yardS" paSSriig^^ and" 3,014 total offense.

In last years Tangerine Bowl. Flutie completed 22 of 38 passes for 299 yards and two touchdowns. Flutie also passed for one two-point conversion, ran for another and scored a touchdown on the ground against Auburn.

Ftiitie is dangerous enough as a passer, but he also is ready to run the ball when necessary.

He was the team's third-leading rusher with 241 yards as the Eagles finished 9-2. including a 20-13 victory over Alabama in the season's tinal game.

Pinkett is averaging 1267 yards per game, good enough to place him fifth in the nation this year. He has 1.962 career rushing yards, ninth among .Notre Dame's all-time leading ground gainers.

Last year; in Notre Dame's upset victory over ihenj unbeaten Pittsburgh. Pmkett compiled 112 yards rushing.

Pinkett says his success is due to Notre Dame's massive offensive line and to his reluctance to be,hit by opposing tacklers.

'^he linemen are so big 1 just hide behind them.' he said. Our philosophy at Notre Dame is to have small backs and linemen who are 6-6, When those linemen stand up, the detense has a hard time locating me. By the time they do. I'm gone. I run scared 1 don't want to get hit by all those big guys '

I"Were all pleased," said Ernie Accorsi, the Colts' general manager. "This is an gcample that Mr. Irsay is committed to winning and

building a successful franchise.

Accorsi added Friday that it was an important signing because we know our backfield is intact for next season.

Colts owner Robert Irsay had said earlier he would not pay Dickeys reported $4.5 million asking price. In addition, Irsay caught a few people off guard by adding he could sign Auburn Universitys sophomore running back, Bo Jackson, for $2 million.

Jackson was as surprised as everyone else by the statement and said he had not negotiated with the Colts, and was not interested.

Dickey, who was the Colts top draft choice four years ago, had been negotiating with the Houston Gamblers in the USFL, prior to signing a contract with the Colts.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Tennessee's Clyde Duncan has dazzled pro scouts watching practices for Sundays Blue-Gra\v. Football Classic, but thev also have their eyes on most of the 71 other players in the all-star game,

Talking to the other scouts, thev tell me this is the finest group of players theyve ever had at a Blue-Gray game." said Bobby Marks, a former Alabama assistant coach who is a scout for the Denver Broncos of the National Football League.

Some 200 scouts from the NFL, Canadian Football League and the Lnited States Football League have watched practices for the -16th annual game, which pits college seniors from the North against seniors from the South.

Kickoff is at 11:30 a.m. I C S T I Sunday at

Montgomerys Cramton Bowl. The game will be televised bv

CBS-TV.

Duncan has been the brightest spot out there. said bowl director Charles Fats Jones. "He's just been switched from cornerback to wide receiver and hes really picked it up well. He's quick and he's smart. The scouts have been talking about him all week."

in Alabama State's Zadhary Barnes and Bennett, who set career and season passing records playing for Duke in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Bennetts a great prospect, Jones said. He sefc the field well and (Gray offensive) Coach (George) McIntyre says he has the best feet for a quarterback hes ever seen,

Marks, in his first year as aa pro scout, said he thinks the Gray quarterback. 6-foot. 196-pound Ben Bennett of Duke, will get drafted before anyone on the Blue-Gray roster.

The other Gray quarterback. 6-foot-3. 213-pound Gary Schofield of Wake Forest, has impressed scouts with his big-league size, Jones said.

1 cant think of anyone on the Gray squad who wont be drafted. he said.

Jones said the scouts have shown a great deal of interest

Jones said other Gray players that might go in the first three rounds are Southern Mississippi offensive tackle Glen Howe. East Carolina guard Terry Long. Duke center Philip Ebinger. Texas-Arlington center Mark

Cannon, Clemson defensive tackle James Robinson. Maryland defensive tackle Pete Koch. North Carolina State linebacker Vaughan Johnson. Clemson defensive back Rod McSwain and TCU safety Allanda Smith.

Blue players listed by Jones as high draft possibilities include Tulsa running back Michael Gunter, Southern California running back Michael Harper.

Sports Is Still Big Target For North Carolina Gamblers

[{\ DAN l.OIIWA.sSKH I PI Sports WriltT

Late in .North Carolina .State's win over The Citadel last season, two men seated midway up the stands- ot Charlotte Coli.seum issued an abrupt reminder that where college sports go. gambling isnt lar behind.

The pair, clearly audible to those in the emptying coliseum. began yelling obscenities at Wolfpack Coach Jim Valvano. The level of the invective and. the fact the game had long ago been decided in the Woltpacks favor, made it obvious they werent just two overzealous fans reacting to a loss.

The Wolfpack was a heavy favorite in the game, and was beginning to run away with it Valvano's team hadn't beaten the two men s alma mater -they had beaten the point spread

Later. Ed .Seaman, the Wolfpack sports information director, checl^d the play by play, the time and the point spread, confirming the outburst occurred just as the Wolfpack ran away with the line.

"They probably dropped a bundle." said Seaman. "Theres no question they

were betting on the game.

From the casual $2 bet between friends to the high rollers, theres a lot more riding on college basketball and football games on a given day than bragging rights. One Charlotte bookie tol(!^UPI that in a city of its size, some $1 million could easily change hands among the areas 18 to 20 established bookmakers on a hot sports weekend.

In 1976, a Congressional gambling commission estimated Americans wagered S28 million that year, a lot of it on sports.

The popularity of sports betting, the experts say. is growing particularly with increased television exposure by cable networks.

"The gambler for the most part likes to see his action said Arme Wexler, a reformed gambler now vice president of the National Council on Compulsive Gambling in .New York. "Any bookmaker will tell you if there is a game on TV, the action is 20 times greater.!

This region hasnt had a college gambling scandal since the l%Os when one involving area players led to the abolition of the Dixie Classic basketball tournament. But from a coachs

perspective, its a very real problem, one demanding measures to assure it doesnt happen again.

The biggest concern voiced by this areas coaches are the people who try to get an inside edge by duping players into spilling information about injuries or player status.

South Carolina Coach Bill Foster said hes reported two such cases to the FBI in the past 10 years.

One was a case of a manager getting an unusual number of calls checking the physical status of one player. said Foster. "It was just too obvious.

North Carolina Coach Dean Smith and several other coaches interviewed last week said they have the FBI in at the beginning of each season to talk to players about the problem,

"Theres always a danger. said Smith. "We want to alert the players that when someone befriends them you have to be careful.

Charlotte FBI agent Chuck Richards, a former pro basketball player, makes the rounds each year in this area and also talks to professional teams.

"A lot of people dont realize the pressures on these young

men, said Richards. "There are all kinds of people who want to saddle up next to you and buvvouabeer.

Richards said drug use by athletes complicates matters, making them susceptible to those with the big money it takes to keep up a habit.

T.s a nasty thing. said Richards, these people behind the scenes in sports bribery couldnt care less about the players.

Area coaches say they don't know the point spreads on their games, and all said they dont want to know.

Smith said he'd like to see newspapers quit printing the betting line, a request the National Association of Basketball Coaches has made to newspaper editors.

"I think thats a losing cause right now. said Smith. "The editors say.thats what the people want and thats what we give them.

Blue quarterbacks Tom iicliffe

Tunnicliffe and Randy Wright have been classified as "very intelligent and very tough by the scouts, Jones said. Both are listed in the top 10 of most scouting reports.

George Karras, the Denver scout assigned to examine the

Blue team, said he considers Sunday's game a major factor in the selection of players in this springs NFL draft.

"It s hard to tell by practice sessions alone because theres really no contact, he said. By just watching practice its hard to determine the athletes abilities as a player.

All these guys are pretty good atMetes. ftit its who performs in the game that determines who rises to the top.

Last year a record 58 BIue-Grayplayers were selected in drafts by the pro leagues, including six in the NFL first round and two in the USFL first round. Jones

expects more than 60 of the players from this years crop to be drafted.

Dave McClain of Wisc(msih and Larry Smith of Arizona. For the Gray, the coaches are Bill Dooley of Virginia Tech and George McIntyre of Vanderbilt.

Oklahoma State Coach Say$ Big Defensive Effort Needed

By MICHAEL A. LUTZ AP Sports Writer

HOUSTON (AP) -Oklahoma State Coach Jimmy Johnson, whose Cowboys gave No. 1-ranked Nebraska its biggest scare of the season, thinks his team will need a similar defensive effort to contain the Baylor Bears in the 25th annual Bluebonnet Bowl New Years Eve in the Astrodome.

"With the exception of Nebraska. Baylor has the best

offense well face all year. Johnson said. "They can score points, hopefully not as many as we score. They throw exceptionally well and they have outstanding, speed in their receivers,

In fact, this game will put as many skill players on the field as any bowl game. Baylor, which finished 7-3-1. will contribute offensive weaponry such as split end Gerald McNeil, a 5-foot-8 speedster who is the Bears

career leading receiver and running back Alfred Anderson, who gained 1.-046 yards last season the fourth best ever for a Baylor runner.

Cody Carlson, one of Baylors three rotating quarterbacks, ranks fourth in the nation in passing effen-ciency.

The Bears rank 20th among NCAA Division I-A schools in total offense.

Oklahoma State will counter on offense with junior tailback Shawn Jones, the teams leading rusher with 924 yards, and Ernest Anderson, the nations leading rusher a year ago but injured much of this , season.

PONTIAC. Mich. (AP) -Detroit Lions running back Billy Sims is being urged not to honor a signed contract to play for the United States Football Leagues Houston Gamblers.

Sims attorney. Elbert L. Hatchett of Pontiac, added Friday he will file a petition soon to remove Sims as a plaintiff in a suit - now in U.S. District Court in Detroit - involving his dual contracts.

Hatchett said he told Sims not to play for Houston after examining a $3.5 million agreement Sims signed with the USFL expansion team Julv 1 and a $4.5 million crra'cl srgnef Dec: ib wth the Lions of the National Football League.

"I looked at the material, and 1 had a discussion with Billv, Hatchett said. "My

firm conclusion is that his best interests would not be served by accepting the invitation to play in Houston.

The Lions might consider the recommendation good news, but Hatchett said he has no loyalty to the NFL team.

"if makes no difference to me where Billy Sims plays football. he said. "He can play in Greenland if he can make more money there. Attorneys for the Gamblers general partner. Dr. Jerry Argovitz. paid a $500 removal bond Thursday to transfer the suit filed against him in Oakland County Circuit Court by the Lions and Sims.

In an emergency petition Friday, attorneys for the Lions' asked U.S. District Judge Robert E. DeMascio to prohibit Texas courts from any further action in the case until it is resolved in Michigan.

Transfer of the $11 million suit to federal court is automatic. said Michael Duggan, an attorney representing Argovitz and his holdings.

The bond requires Argovitz to pay all costs of the removal proceedings if it is determined the case should not have been moved to federal court. Oakland County Circuit

Judge David Breck. whq lifted a suppression order on the case Wednesday, said Argovitz had 30 days after being served with papers to file for removal of the case to federal court. He added that DeMascio could accept the case or return it to circuit court.

In the petition for removal. Argovitz said federal court has jurisdiction because of the geographical diversity of the suits principals. Sims is a Michigan resident and the Lions are headquartered in Pontiac. The Gamblers and Argovitz are based in Texas.

The Lions suit claims Argovitz. formerly Sims "gent. failed to mfdrm the running back before he signed with the Gamblers that Detroit had agreed to most of his contract demands.

Among the issues to be resolved in federal court is a temporary order prohibiting the Lions from discussing the Gamblers contract with Sims. It was signed Dec. 21 by a Harris County. Texas, judge who scheduled a Dec. 29 hearing in the case.

The Lions emergency petition claims'the Texas suit, filed four days after the Michigan action, is a retaliatory move and the Dec. 29 hearing was scheduled to interfere with the preparation of th Lions and of Sims for the NFL championship games:

13.4 points per game. Oklahoma State ranks eighth nationally against the run and is third in the nation in turnover margin, having acquired 53 opponents mistakes and yielded only 32.

Free safety Adam Hinds ranks among the national leaders with seven interceptions and linebacker .Matt Monger leads the team with 136 tackles.

Kickoff is at 8 p.m. EST for the 25th annual bowl game.

The Dally Retiector. reenviiie. N.c. Sunday, uecember 25.1983

SAN DIEGO (AP) - Steve Youngs considerable reputation^^ as an All American arterback was built on his t)ility to throw a football. It turns out hes not too bad on the receiving end, either. Although Young completed 616 passes in thr^ season at BYU, he will prhaps be best remmbered by Cougar fans foir the pass he caught on the last play of his college career.

Less than 30 seconds remained in Fridays Holiday Bowl football game when Young caught a flea-flicker toss from halfback Eddie Stinnett, outmaneuvered a couple of potential tackiers and dove into the end zone for the touchdown that gave BYU a scintillating 21-17 victory over Missouri.

FinaUy, we did what we were supposed to do, an

elated Young said after the fourth-period scoring drive that wiped out the sting of 36 minutes of frustration. We laid down for three quarters, but we came back to life and made the plays. But, boy, Im not used to these kind of games.

Although Young completed 24 of 36 passes for 314 yards and figur in all three Ccuga touchmwns, he also threw

three interceptions. Two of the thefts set up Missouri scores.

But a BYU defensive stand that halted Missouri on fourth down at the Cougar 7-yard-line with 3:57 to play changed all that.

We knew we had the ability, Young said of that 10-play, 93-yard drive. When it got to t^t last drive ... we knew we were going in.

St. John's Captures Seventh Straight Behing Wennington

By BOB GREENE AP Sports Writer

St. Johns got Chris Mullin back and a career-best performance from 7-foot junior center Bill Wennington. That was enough for the 12th-ranked Reamen.

Bill had been playing fiat, St. Johns Coach Lou

Carnesecca said of Wennington, a member of the Canadian squad which won the University Games gold medal this past summer. Tonight, he was very active and was in command. He has to play that way.

With Wennington scoring 23 points, St. Johns ran their unbeaten streak to seven with an easy 89-71 victory over Niagara. St. John's was the only ranked team to see action Friday night.

"Points dont mean that much to me, said Wennington. who shot ll-for-14 from the floor. "I would like to have had more rebounds than 1 did (seven)."

Mullin, a 6-6 guard who was named Player of the Year in the Big East Conference last year after leading the Redmen

to the league title, returned to the lineup after missing three games with tendinitis.

"I was getting itchy, said Mullin, who scored 19 points, grabbed eight rebounc^ and handed off three assists in 25 minutes of action. My foot felt good the last two days in practice, so it was good getting back into the lineup.

St. Johns started the game by taking a 15-4 lead, then went on an 11-2 tear to go up 34-18 with 3:47 remaining in the first half. Seven minutes into the second half, the Redmen increased their advantage to 61-34 and Niagara never really threatened.

The host University of Alabama-Birmingham captured the UAB Classic with an 81-76 triple overtime victory over Villanova. Steve Mitchell scored 23 points, i.acluding six in the closing minutes.

Samford, led by Ed Beards 27 points, defeated Valparaiso 75-69 in the consolation game.

Andre Battles short jumper, from the side with seven seconds remaining gave Loyola of Chicago a 73-72

double overtime victory over Bradley. The Braves appeared to have the game sewed up with a 72-69 lead and only 1:30 remaining, but Battle, who finished with 18 points, scored with 1:09 left. Then Voise Winters lost a pass with 40 second left and the Ramblers worked the ball for Battles winning shot.

Center Wayman Tisdale scored 34 points, grabbed 15 rebounds and blocked three shots as Oklphoma crushed Oklahoma City 70-54. The victory gives the Sooriers, 8-1, their best start since the l%9-70 season.

a 20-

Tennessee, 8-1, used point performance by reserve center Dan Federmann to stop Arizona 61-49, while Fred Co -lins 20-foot jumper with three seconds left gave Fairleigh Dickinson, 7-4, a 74-73 upset over Iona, 6-2.

Furman edged Augusta 70-69 when Augusta forward Jay Jahns 20-foofejjumper in the final seconds rolled in, then out of the basket.

Nevada-Las Vegas captured the Rebel Roundup by defeating Southern Illinois 91-68. Southern Methodist claimed third place with a 56-53 victory over James Madison.

tive about the deciding play, which was sent down from the press box by assistant coach Norm Chow.

I wouldnt call that play, he smiled. Do that, and Id be hung from the Brigham Young statue, which stands in Salt Lake City in tribute to his great-great-great grandfather, the Mormon colonizer.

Everyone always says how Im related to Brigham Young. he added. "Now heres another great story.

Just as Young stood out for a jubliant BYU team that finished 11-1, defensive ends Bobby Bell and Taft Sales played heroically for Missouri, which closed at 7-5.

Young was sacked four times by Bell and once by Sales. Pressure from Bell also forced Youngs first interception, a grab by Sales that set up Missouris first touchdown. And Sales also flopped on a BYU fumble that preceded the Tigers* final, but futile, attempt to salt the game away.

The .five sacks "were not enough, said Bell, son of pro football hall of famer Bobby Bell. We could have used six more.

Sales "wasnt surprised about the play ... We knew they had it in their play ^k. But it had to be a real trick or it wouldnt have worked.

Louisville is 4-2 heading into the game.

"Its going to be one of our tougher games, said Cardinals Coach Denny Crum. "Physically, we dont match up with them. We dont have an advantage at any position.

The lOth-ranked Cardinals are led by guards Lancaster Gordon and Milt Wagner.

"Theyre probably the best guard pair in the nation. Lewis said, "I said it last year, and theyve gotten better this year. Our team is completely different, too. Were not as good as last year.

Fresno State is 7-2. Theyll go up against a Chaminade team that is 8-1 and ranked third in the latest NAIA poll. The Silverswords only loss this year has come at the hands of Missouri.

B.vHILLIAMR. BARNARD AP Sports Writer

A little Christmas gift from Detroit's Bill Laimbeer was all the Philadelphia 76ers needed.

With the score tied in the final seconds. Detroit had the basketball and a chance to win the National Basketball Association game Friday night. But Philadelphia center demon Johnson, who started in place of the injured Moses .Malone, stole a pass from Laimbeer. setting the stage for Andrew Toney's game-winning bank shot with one second to go.

'We just gave it away, it's as simple as that." Detroit forward Kelly Tripucka said after the 108-106 loss to the 76ers. They didn't pull off any miracles. It was an early Christmas present."

Tonev led the 76ers. who

have the NBA s best record at 20-5, with 32 points.

In other NBA games, it was Boston 125. New Jersey 113; Milwaukee 89. Cleveland 83; Atlanta 114. New York 113 in double overtime; Chicago 114. Washington 93; Kansas City 126. San .Antonio 122; Utah 118, Denver 116; Los Angeles 123, Golden State 116; Phoenix 121, San Diego 115; and Portland 97. Houston 84.

Laimbeer was dribbling the ball at center court when Johnson made the steal that took away Detroit's chance to win.

It was my mistake." Laimbeer said. "I tried to get the ball to the frontcourt and call a 20 I-second timeout). I got to the front court, turned to call a 20, and the ball kept ongoing."

State's Victory Tops Cage Year

By 1)1( K .lOVCK AP Sports Writer

For anyone willing to listen. Coach Jiimmy \'alvano will embellish the last minute and the aftermath of North Carolina State's stunning victory over top-ranked Houston in the 1983 NCAA '-basketball championship game.

"So there 1 was when Lorenzo got the dunk begins Valvano. He goes on and on. nonstop, getting laughs 1rom his listeners about one ol the biggest upsets in the history ol the tournament

But moments after it happened. on April 4 in Albquer-que. N .M.. \'alvano said.*"lt's awesome. I'm almost speeechless. No^ funny lines. I'm simply in "awe of this team.    

Valvano didn't have much to joke about midway through last season when .VC. State was struggling along Ut 9-7 and his best shooter, Dereck Whittenburg. was on the sidelines since midway through the 10th game and possibly out tor the season with a broken foot.

But the Wolfpack stormed hack to surprise the basketball world with a series ol pulsating victories, capped by a.54-.')2 triumph m the final Hou.^iton had lived by the dunk shot, earning the nickname Phi Slama Jama But the Cougars were done in by a slam dunk with one second lett - by sophomore Lorenzo Charles The goal came when a 3(i-foot shot by Whittenburg. who had returned in February after a 14-game absence Charles clutched the ball and slammed It through tor his third and tourth points ol the night The Cinderella Woltpack had lultulled \'alvano's "team ol destiny' dream N.C State ended the regular season 17*11). then won the Atlantic Coast Conterence tournament, beating North Carolina 71-7i) in overtime in the semifinals and Virginia 81-78 m the final. Then came the NCAA playoffs.

Valvano said before the first round ot the West Regional against Pepperdme at Corvallis. Ore . "I'm a dreamer, but I'm telling you. it we win here, we ll be in Albuquerque playing on the last day ."

It took two overtimes for the Woltpack to beat Pepperdme 69-67 after trailing .')7-.')l with 1:10 to play and being down by tour points with 29 seconds left.

Nevada-Las Vegas also seemed have ended N.C. State's dream, leading 70-69 with a one-and-one tree-throw situation with 32 seconds left. But the first free throw was missed and N.C. .State's Thurl Bailey sank a rebound with three seconds to go, pulling out a 71-70 victory.

N.C. State's first easy win in the touranment came against Utah when the Wolfpack shot 68 percent from the field for a 75-56 victory, setting up another meeting with Virginia and 7-foot-4 senior Ralph Sampson, who was trying to end his frustration of having never led the Cavaliers to the national crown Sampson, who passed up pro offers after each of his under graduate years, again was foiled in his bid to lead Virginia to a national title as N.C. State pulled out a 63-62 triumph on Charles' two free throws with 23 seconds left.

Next came the Final Four in Albuquerque against Georgia.. The Bulldogs had upset St. John s and North Carolina in fh#,East Regionals. but were

beaten by N.C. State 67-60.

Meanwhile, Houston was slam-dunking its way into the final. In the semifinal against No 2 ranked Louisville, the tall and talented Cougars, led by sophomore Akeem pia-jwon, a 7-foot native of Nigeria, and Clyde Drexler. won 94-81 with an awesome display of power basketball.

Before the game, some observers called the final between N.C. State and Houston the greatest mismatch in the history of the tournament Houston boasted a 31-2 record with a 26-game winning streak. N.C. State, ranked No. 16 after its late season surge, had raised its record to 25-10.

Valvano countered by running the ball against the run-shoot-and-slam dunk Cougars and' led at haltrne 33-25. But the Cougars went off a 17-2 surge in the first 10 minutes after intermission to lead 42-35.

Then, in what might have been Houston's downfall. Coach Guy Lewis ordered a slowdown. N.C. State began fouling, and. while Houston was missing from the free throw line. Sidney Lowe, Terry Gannon and Whittenburg hit from the outside in the closing minutes to make it .52-.)2 with less than a minute

go

The Wolfpack worked the ball around as the clock ticked off With five seconds left. Whittenburg let go- ... and Charles was there.

N C. State's 10 losses were the most ever tor an .NC.AA championship team The 19H2-8:> season was a time in which e.xperimentation with three-point goals at varying distances and shot clocks ot varying times proliferated Atter the season, the three-point goals were eliminated in all but two conferences. while most stayed with the 45-second clock Sampson was named the Associated Press' Player of the Year in 1982-83 for an unprecedented third straight year and headed the All-American team, which also included Pat Ewing of Georgetown, Dale Ellis of Tennessee, Michael Jordan of North Carolina and Wayman Tisdale of Oklahoma -- the first freshman ever to be named to AP's first team All-American basketball squad.

The 1983-84 season began with North Carolina, returning Sam Perkins. .Matt Doherty and Jordan from its 1982 national championship team, as the No. 1 preseason choice, followed by Kentucky, which had 7-1 Sam Bowie, sidelined the past two seasons, back in the lineup.

This season also marks Coach Ray .Meyer's 42nd and final season at DePaul. He reached the 700-mark in victories Dec. 3 against Illinois State and there was strong indication Meyer's final campaign would be a winning one,

Clarence "Big House" Gaines, in his 37th year of coaching Winston-Salem State, also surpassed the 700 plateau, doing it in the season-opener and becoming the first active coach to reach that mark.

XMlunities to get back in the >asketball game," 76ers Coach Billy Cunningham said. "Then we came up with the big play with Clem on the steal, and then Andrew making that great shot with one second to play. It was a great effort."

The 76ers started well in the absence of Malone, who has an injured ankle. They led 16-4 behind three early field goals by Julius Erving, who finished with 26 points.

The Pistons came back to trail by only three points at halftim'e and three points at the end of three quarters, and then took the lead on five occasions in the fourth period.

Erving's three-point play gave Philadelphia a 98-96 edge with 3:28 left, and the 76ers never trailed again although Detroit tied the game 106-106 when John Long scored with 30 seconds remaining. Toneys game-winner was the only basket after that.

Tripucka led the Pistons with 24 points, while Long added 21.

Jazz 118, Nuggets 116

At Salt Lake City, Adrian Dantley scored 27 points and his two free throws broke a 115-115 tie in the final seconds against Denver to give Utah its sixth straight victory.

The Jazz also got 24 points from John Drew and 22 from Jeff Wilkins, while Alex English scored 30 for the Nuggets.

Bulls 114, Bullets 93

Chicago won its fifth straight game, winning at home against Washington as Dave Corzine and Orlando Woolridge scored 19 points apiece.

The Bulls opened a 20-9 lead and steadily pulled away to lead by as many as 30 points.

Lakers 123. Warriors 116

For Dallas, It's Do Or Die

DALLAS lAP) - Some members of the Dallas Cowboys think their professional futures, as well as their fading hopes for a trip to the Super Bowl, are on the line in Monday's wild-card playoff game against the Los Angeles Rams.

Record cold weather, along with the Cowboys losses in their last two regular-season games, may have contributed to the fact that more than 6.00U tickets remained on sale Saturday for the contest.

The National Football League office in New York Friday granted the team a 24-hour extension of the deadline for avoiding a local television blackout. The team had requested the extension of the 1:30 p.m. Friday deadline because of severe weather.

But the players have a lot more on their minds than box-office receipts.

"If we don't go to the Super Bowl this year, there will be a general housecleaning." said wide receiver Butch Johnson, "They (management) aren't going to wait any longer.

"A lot of guys arent going to be kept around here just 'because they signed a contract. Johnson continued. "I think management will be very inclined to bring in fresh material. If we lose Monday, it will be the last hurrah for this team as you see it now. The Cowboys lost two weeks ago 31-10 to Washington and then were routed Monday night in San Francisco, 42-17.

In the two losses, Dallas rushed 43 times for only 95 yards.

Were not doing the little things to make big things happen." running back Tony Dorsett said Thursday. Tm not going to criticize anybody, but football is a game of basics and we re not doing some things

Coach Tom Landry has refrained from pointing the finger at his offensive line.

"In our offense, you should be able to get more than 33 yards with no blocking at all. " said Landry, apparently alluding to some unhappiness with Dorsett's running: "You should be able to do that by just stepping on the field."

The team returned to Dallas Friday after a brief trip to Houston to practice in the .Astrodome.

Cowboys spokesman Greg Aiello said he could not recall a Cowboys playoff game that had been blacked out on local television and added that it was likely that Mondays game would be.

"Weather is the number one reason. Number two is that a playoff game at Texas Stadium is not unusual. In some cities it would be a big event but here its no big deal. Weve been in more playoff games than any team in NFL history." Aiello said.

"And a third reason may be that we have played poorly in our last two games. Some people may have written us off.^

The weather forecast for Monday called for subfreezing temperatures with a chance of snow and freezing rain.

Steinbrenner Is Fined

NEW YORK (AP) - In what could be the final chapter in the controversial "pine tar" game last July 24, the New York Yankees have been fined $250,000 by baseball Commissioner Bowie Kuhn in part for statements made by team owner George Steinbrenner,

Steinbrenner, in a statement Saturday, confirmed the fine and said he would not appeal it.

While we feel the penalty to be excessive, we will abide by the commissioners decision." Steinbrenner said in the statement. "We certainly do not wish to cause him (Kuhn) any problems in his last few days as commissioner."

Kuhp, who levied the fine after a hearing with Steinbrenner last Monday, will end his tenure as commissioner on March 1. 1984 and it will end with Kuhn having taken two of his harshest actions of his 15 years in office.

Last week, Kuhn suspended

Los Angeles' Steve Howe. Kansas City's Willie Wilson and former Royals players Willie Aikens and Jerry .Martin, all in connection with drug problems.

Kuhns investigation and the fine of the Yankees stemmed from a game between the Yankees and Kansas City last July 24 when a two-out. two-run home run by George Brett of the Royals was nullified in the top of the ninth inning because he had used too much pine tar on his bat. The umpires ruling had given the Yankees an apparent 4-3 victory, but then-American League President Lee MacPhail later ruled that the umpires had misapplied the rule.

.MacPhail let Brett's home run stand, ordered the game resumed last Aug. 18, and the Yankees wound up losing 5-4,

In his statement. Steinbrenner said: In some ways, it is ironic. We were not the team using the illegal bat

in the first place, but yet we seem to come out worst in the whole matter. Nonetheless, we will abide by Bowies decision."

The fine, the largest ever assessed by Kuhn, also resulted from positions espoused by other repre sentajives of the New York Yankees" in connection with lawsuits brought by two fans, Lawrence F. Morrison and-Madelyn Davis, both of New York.

Steinbrenner initially indicated he would sue in order to avoid restarting the game, then later changed his mind At the same time, however, he said. "If the Yankees should lose the Eastern Division race on the ruling of American League President Lee MacPhail. 1 would not want to be poor Lee living in ;New York City. He had letter start house-hunting out in Missouri, close to Kansas City."

The Yankeesstatement said Kuhn had exonerated Steinbrenner from involvement in either of the lawsuits

launched by Yankees fans. The suits were brought to block resumption of the game since patrons of the July 24 contest were not given tickets to see its conclusion almost a month later.

At the time. Yankees at-, torney Roy Cohn said. If is ~ totally irresponsible , on the part of the league to say the only time you can play this-game is ofi Thursday (.Aug. 18) at 6 p.m. with two lawsuits, pending. We don't want ill will on the part of the fans in Manhattan and the Bronx. We want full judicial determination, We do not take this lightly."

Cohn also indicated that the Yankees could not be responsible for security at the Stadium.

The previous largest fine levied by Kuhn was against San Diego Padres owner Ray Kroc, who was ordered to pay $100,000 for tampering with Joe Morgan, then ot San Francisco, and the Yankees' Graig .Nettles.

Drug Challenge May Cloud Great Year For Atnletes

ByJOHNMOSSMAN ^ AP Sports Writer

It was a year of uncommon achievement for such American Olympic athletes as sprinter-long jumper Carl Lewis, figure skater Scott Hamilton, distance runner Mary Decker, diver Greg Louganis and skiers Phil Mahre and Tamara McKinney.

But 1983 may best be remembered as the year the U.S. Olympic Committee faced its most fearsome problem head-on - that of drug use by its athletes.

Prompted by the embarrassment of the Pan American Games in Caracas - where 15 athletes from 10 nations, including two from the United States, were stripped of their medals after testing positive for illegal drugs or banned substances - the USOC launched a program aimed at both educating American athletes about the dangers of drug use and eliminating that use through sophisticated urinalysis testing.

We must wipe out this danger once and for all and obliterate the image of the chemical athlete that is starting to shape itself in the public mind." said USOC executive director F. Don Miller in announcing the get-tough policy.

From now on. any athlete representing the United States in international amateur competition will have to pass a drug test before making the team.

Another administrative accomplishment in 1983 was the establishment of an Endowment Trust, a tax-exempt foundation separate from the USOC. which will bankroll future Olympic efforts. Funds from proposed income-tax checkoff legislation, along with proceeds from the Olympic Coin Act and profits from the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles are to be funneled into the trust.

Preparations for the Summer Games went smoothly in 8:5. officials said. Heavily undenvTitten by commercial concerns and staged cost-free to the Los Angeles citizenry, the Games figure to set a standard for future competitions. All construction is complete or on schedule, and every venue has been played on. dived into, run on. cycled on.

We are confident the Los Angeles Games will be an unqualified success." said Miller, "and will show what the free-enterprise system can do without impacting taxpayers."

To most amateur sports fans in the United States, however, those details are incidental. For the fan. the bottom line is lw well our athletes fare against foreign competition, especially the Soviet Union and Eastern European countries.

Results of 1983 competitions bode well for success in the 1984 Winter and Summer Olympics, according to Miller, who apnounced plans to retire from the top USOC after next snmmers Games.

-"In 1983 our athletes had greater success than in any year iii recent memory,'^ said Miller, attributing part of that performance to the use of USOC training centers in Colorado Springs, Colo., and Lake Placid. N.Y.. by about 10.000 African athletes.

^e United States expects to win more medals at the Winter Games in Sarajevo. Yugoslavia, than ever before. The Alnerican record is 12 medals, set at the '80 Games in Lake PJacid, but even without Eric Heiden and his five-medal haul fqur years ago, the prospects are good for improvement.

^ahre of Yakima. Wash., claimed his third straight men's overall World Cup championship last spring, and despite a siPw start this season hes the heavy favorite to win medals in tl slalom and giant slalom at the Winter Olympics.

^Kinney of Squaw Valley, Calif., became the first American female ever to win the womens overall World Cup cibwn. She and teammates Christin Cooper and Cindy Nelson comprise a solid nucleus that should give the United kates at

1 Hit I StlVICE CtlUl    j

least another two skiing medals.

Bill Koch of Eugene, Ore., the World Cup overall cross-country titlist in 1982, led the standings heading into the final race of last season, ultimately finishing third.

Although the U.S. speed-skating team is in disarray, figure skating is stronger than ever, biathlon has potential, the luge squad has made great progress, and the hockey team, while not likely to duplicate the magic of its gold-medal performance in 1980. figures to be in contention for a medal.

The diminutive Hamilton of Denver captured his third straight world figure skating title last year, and along with womens world champion Rosalyn Sumners. Elaine Zayak and several solid pairs skaters form a most imposing delegation.

At the Summer Games in Los Angeles, the United States expects its usual complement of medals in the major events. Lewis won three gold medals at the 1983 World Championships in Helsinki - in the 100 meters, the long jump and as part of the world record-setting 4xl00-meter relay team -ana he says he will try for four golds at Los Angeles.

Evelyn Ashford and Calvin Smith set world records just 15 minutes apart in the mens and womens 100-meter dashes at the National Sports Festival last July, and Smith added two golds in the 200 meters and the sprint relay at the World Championships.

Decker answered critics who said she couldnt run with the East Europeans. She won the biggest showdowns of her injury-plagued career, taking gold medals in the 1,500 and 3.000 meters at the World Championships, and closed out the year without a loss.

Another medal favorite at Los Angeles is hurdler Edwin Moses, who extended his winning streak to an incredible 81 races at Helsinki.

Louganis clearly is the man to beat in men's diving at Los Angeles. Louganis won gold medals at the World Cup. Los Angeles Pre-Olympic Invitational. Sports Festival. Nationals and the Pan American Games.

Rick Carey, who set a world record in the 100-meter backstroke, heads a talented American swimming team. W'orld champion Pernell Whitaker paces the boxing team, and the U.S. mens and womens basketball teams figure to be medal-bound. The United States appears on the verge of having its best cycling team ever, led by world silver-medalist Rebecca Twigg.

Perhaps more noteworthy, however, was the progress made in the so-called lesser sports in 1983. USOC officials are confident that Americans will win more Olympic medals in the smaller sports than ever before, including archery, womens volleyball, womens field hockey, judo, shooting, equestrian, synchronized swimming and water polo.

Archer Rick McKinney is the favorite for the mens gold medal after winning the 1983 World Championship, the National Sports Festival and the Nationals.

Toronto Has Holiday Spirit, Gives Win . To Red Wings

New

3-2.

By BARRY WILNER AP Sports Writer

In the true holiday spirit, the Toronto Maple Leafs were happy to give. And the Detroit Red Wms will be spending a merry Christmas because of it.

The Red Wings scored four times on power plays and. led by rookie Steve Yzerman and John Ogrodnick, each with three goals, belted the Leafs 9-2 Friday night. By scoring their most goals of the season, the host Wings snapped an 11-game winless streak.

Three of the piower-play tallies came in the first period and Detroit, leading 4-1 after two periods, punctuated the rout with five scores in the final 20 minutes.

"The difference tonight was we showed up ready to play, said Ogrodnick, who also had two assists. We moved the puck around and got some goals on the power play. Its a great feeling, and a good way to go into Christmas."

In four games since Yzerman was move^to the left point, Detroits power play has produced nine goals. The Red Wings now have 37 power play goals this season, matching last season's total.

Yzerman has good puck-handling skills," said Detroit Coach Nick Polano. He can take the puck off the boards... and hes capable of making a pass and shooting the puck. Hes just a quality hockey player."

Yzerman was stressing the bright side of things for the Wings, who tied two of their previous three games.

Were unbeaten in three of our last four games." the rookie said. Thats the way to look at it."

Elsewhere, it was Hartford 5, Minnesota 3; Washington 7. the New York Islanders 3;

Pittsburgh 6. New Jersey 5 in overtime; Winnipeg 6. St. Louis 3; the New York Rangers 3. Chicago 2. and Calgary 5, Edmonton 5.

Whalers 3, North Stars 3 Hartford scored three goals in 34 minutes - by Ray Neufeld, Bob Crawford and Blaine Stoughton - in the second period to put away the North Stars. Ron Francis had three assists, while Mark Johnson collected a goal and two setups for the Whalers.lt was only the second defeat in the North Stars last 10 road games.

"We took the game too lightly, said Minnesota Coach Bill Mahoney, the whole team didnt show up Capitals 7, Islanders 3 Bengt Gustafsson scored three goals as the Caps, who were beaten 6-1 Thursday night on Long Island, snapped the Stanley Cup champions six-game winning streak. The Islanders were unbeaten in nine, 8-0-1.

Dave Christian set up three goals foi* host Washington. After the Islanders rallied to within 4-3 after trailing 4-0, Christian got a piece of Ken Morrows pass and the puck came to Gustafsson, who completed his hat trick to stem the tide.

Dave got a piece of the puck and it went right to my stick." said Gustafsson, who also contributed one assist. I lost my balance, but I shot and it went between his (goalie Rollie Melansonilegs."

Penguins 6, Devils 5 Randy Carlyle scored on the only shot of overtime, a 40-foot drive at 2:12. capping a three-goal Pittsburgh comeback. It was the first overtime win for the Penguins after an 0-2-3 record in extra sessions. The Devils, who got two goals and an assist from

Mel Bridgman, are 0-2-2 in OT.

Mike Bullard added two goals for Pittsburgh.

The boys on the bench said my shot was fluttering like a knuckleball but Ill take it. ' Carlyle said."We'll taken any two points we can get."

The victory was rookie goaltender Roberto Romano's first in the NHL.Romano was called up Wednesday to replace injured goaltender Denis Herron and lost that night 6-1 to the Rangers. He also lost three games last season.

I am really concerned. We blow a two-goal lead in the third period and then we blow the game in overtime. said New Jersey Coach Tom McVie. This game was ours and we gave it back. "

Jets 6, Blues 3

Dale Hawerchuks lOOth NHL goal sparked the host Jets, who led 5-0 before the Blues got a puck past goalie Doug ietaert. Soetaert made 34 saves in hi

the season.

Flames 5. Oilers 3 Rookie Dan Quinn s firt NHL goal came with 51 second left in regulation as the Flames tied Edmonton. Wayne Gretzky extended his record consecutive game points streak to 36 with a goal and an assist, giving him NHL highs of 41 goals. 66 assists and 107 points.

Gretzkys goal came when his pass hit Flamef de-fenseman Allan Maclnnis and i)Ounced high in the air. It came down behind goalie Reggie Lemelin and in the Calgary net.

Rangers 3, Black Hawks 2 Ron Greschner put a screened 40-foot wrist shot past goalie Murray Ban-nerman with New York holding a two-man advantage, then his slapshot from the point was tipped home by Pierre Larouche for the game-winner 53 seconds later on another power play.

Watch For Banded Canada Geese - Sportsmen and bird watchers should watch for Canada geese wearing wide, plastic neck collars and report any sightings of these birds. Over the next three to four years, wildlife biologists in the Atlantic Flyway will band approximately 50,000 Canada geese. The joint project is an effort to learn more about the seasonal movement of these

stopping" of Canada geese in northern states.

In North Carolina we hope to band a couple of thousand geese each year. said Dennis Luszcz of Edenton, waterfowl project leader for the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commissions Division of Wildlife Management. These geese are currently being banded on federal wildlife refuges in the state. Cowans Ford Wildlife Refuge, and on Albemarle and Pamlico sounds. We are not banding geese on Currituck Sound because we have not been able to secure an adequate banding site."

We also plan to mount a big observation effort - including hiring field observers - to record band data during the Igst two years of the project," reports Vernon Bevill, executive director of the Wildlife Resources Commission and vice-chairman of the special Atlantic Flyway committee which designed the study. "Multiple observations of birds in the field over the

opening seasons earlier and bag limits were liberalized. Based on limited banding data, we feel that Canada geese which normally winter in North Carolina may be arriving at the Delmarva Peninsula when these seasons open. Since the harvest is heaviest early in the hupting season - the birds quickly become wary - a disproportionate number of birds that would normally winter in North and South Carolina may be harvested early in the season in the North. We dont have enough date to prove this yet, and this program will attempt to answer this question. If our banding shqws that this is. the case, however, changes' in regulations throughout the flyway could result in a more equitable distribution of Canada geese. Anyone who sees a collared Canada goose should report the sighting (including the code on the collar if visible, location of sighting, dnd date) to the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission, 512 N.

on their movements, behavior and survival. Other states which are participating in this project include New York, Pennsylvania. New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and South Carolina."

Waterfowl biologists hope that the project may provide some solutions to the problem of Canada geese being "short-stopped" - or wintering - in northern states. Despite a steady increase in the numbers of Canada geese in the Atlantic Flyway over the past 30 years, the numbers of birds wintering in North Carolina and other southeastern states have decreased. For example, a high of approximately one-quarter million Canada geese wintered in North Carolina in 1944. By the early 1980s, the number of Canada geese wintering in the state had fallen to about 30,000.

Canada geese have certainly changed their habits over the past 30 years," said. Luszcz. Changes in agricultural practices have prompted birds to wWter further north - particularly on the Delmarva Peninsula of Delaware. Maryland and Virginia. As resident flocks were established in these areas, fewer birds migrated south to traditional wintering grounds in coastal North and South

Hhoto Firms Study Entry Into New Growth Areas

By J AMES PELTZ "C .AP Business Writer

^W YORK (.API - As nSlJions of American fami-liS^ather for Christmas, the utliiuitous camera will be there, either wrapped under flejre orsnapping away in a^atives hands, niie holidays, of course. ace^a time much to the liking of the two major domestic )hJ)tography giants, ila^tman Kodak Co. and Po-.* lark'd Corp. People buy lots ot cameras for Christmas presents, and those with cameras buy lots of film.

^ut for much of December tSe news coming from Kodak afld Polaroid focused not on apwteur still cameras and fHm, but rather on floppy dfecs, disc drives and video products.

Xodak said this past week C plans to unveil a new line 0^ video products on Jan. 4, and the widespread speculation is they will include an Bliim camera, recorder and compatible player unit for bgnsumeruse.

; few days earlier Polaroid said it will start selling fEippy discs - the devices t6at store information in sjpall computers - early t5tt year. Polaroid also said iC:will market blank vlc^tape cassettes in the United States.

'Kodak, too, is planning to oftr floppy discs, and last n&Uith entered a licensing ajteement with Drivetec lOe. to make disc drives for phonal computers, ilhese developments might IwU one to conclude that I^ak and Polaroid are resile with their traditional rqarkets - pocket and ins-tailt cameras, and film.

J^ot quite.

3e market for such traditional cameras and film is i^eed not growing as fast as it'did in the 1970s, analysts s5y, although they expect a Cyclical surge from the itonomic recovery once mnsumers have resolved tfiir pent-up demand for bWr-ticket items.

TThe compnies are seen djipanding their depth of field tftperk up those growth rates to apply their technolog-i^l know-how to different ^^as.

Kodaks disc cameras -i^.new generation of pocket hieras - are enjoying sti?)ng sales, although the j^ularity of autofocus ^mm cameras, largely i^de in Japan, is seen cut-Ito into what might have ofljerwise been disc-camera siles.

Sales also are strong for Kodak's new line of VR films fj|r 35mm cameras.

' Instant cameras are one of ttose suspect areas, with mtle long-term growth seen 4 the moment. That puts rticular pressure on ins-^t giant Polaroid, and

there also have been rumors Kodak is ready to withdraw from instant photography.

So thete are trouble spots, but Kodak'and Polaroid are not about to give up on amateur photography as being a no-growtfrbusiness.

Still, "in order for these companies to show the growth rates they had in the '70s, it will be necessary for them to move into new markets. " says Eugene G. Glazer, photo analyst for Dean Witter Reynolds Inc.

It also has been necessary for Polaroid and Kodak to enact cost-reduction programs. Polaroid's' is about finished and its earnings are rebounding, but Kodak is still restructuring and its profit for the first nine months of 1983 were off 47 percent.

But the new markets they are choosing appear logical, says Peter Enderlin of Smith Barney. Harris Upham & Co.

"With their expertise in thin coatings, they certainly would be natural candidates to be leading factors in magnetic media, " Enderlin says.

Glazer also sees the possibility of Polaroid and Kodak combining their video and instant-print acumen to

eventually allow consumers to make hard prints of images on a television screen.

In other news this past week:

- The Commerce Department estimated the economy is growing hr the current quarter at an annual rate of 4.5 percent, after adjusting for inflation. That is slower than the 6 percent or 7 percent growth some economists expected, but the slowdown was praised by many observers as helping to keep inflation down.

- Consumer prices in November rose rose 0.3 percent from the previous month, the Labor Department said. That held consumer prices to a 3.8 percent annual rate of increase for the first 11 months of the year - the lowest since the wage-price controlled years of 1971-72.

- Corporate after-tax profits soared 13.3 percent in the third quarter, up from the 11.6 percent rate of gain previously estimated, the Commerce Department said. Overall, those profits rose $16.9 billion to a $144.1 billion annual rate in the July-September period.

Meat Prices Sharply Lower

By MELISSA JOHNSON^ Associated Press Writer Livestock futures prices we mixed and meat prices were sharply lower Friday in light, pre-holiday tracUng on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

Cattle prices were mostly higher, and analysts said se-vere winter weather was the [Hmary factor.

In addition to limiting the movement of livestock to market, sub-zero temperatures retard animal weight gain, thus slowing production, said Robert Kuhn, a livestock analyst in Chicago with Dean Witter Reynolds Inc.

Cash prices of frozen hog bellies were lower and that put downard pressure on futures prices, Kuhn said.

Live cattle settled .03 cent lower to 1.08 cents higher with the contract for delivery in Februaiw at 68.00 cents a pound; feeder cattle were ,10 cent to .45 cent higher with January at 69.45 cents a

pound; and frozen pork bellies were 1.62 cents to 2 cents lower with February at 63.17 cents a pound.

Grain and soybean futures irices were higher in very ight volume on the Chicago Board of Trade.

The severe winter weather supported prices in all the trad-ing pits, said Mike Hinebaugh, a grain analyst in Chicago with ContiCommodity Services Inc.

He said traders were reluctant to sell because sub-zero temperatures and snow have limited supplies by disrupting shipments, thus boosting cash )rices. For example, many )ar-ges are stranded by ice in the upper Midwest, Hinebaugh noted.

Gold and silver futures prices were lower in very quiet tra'd-ing on the Commodity Ex-change in New York.

Silver moved down sharply

near the end of the session, which was shortened due to the Christmas holidays. Bette Raptopoulous. a metals analyst in New York with Prudential-Bache Securities Inc.. said the price move was exaggerated because volume was so light.

Gold settled $1.70 to $2.60 low-er with the contract for delivery in January at $380.90 a troy ounce; silver settled 21,8 cents to 27.3 cents lower with January at $8.785 a troy ounce,

By CHET CURRIER AP Business Writer

NEW YORK (AP) - It didn't happen before Christmas, but Wall Street analysts still hold out hop^ for a Santa Claus rally in the stock market this year.

Four trading sessions remain for the market to embark on a yearend advance, if the mood should so strike investors. The historical record suggests that the last week of the year is often a good one for stock prices.

And some brokers argue that selling for 1983 tax purposes has been largely completed, removing at least one recent obstacle In the markets path.

Of course, many analysts have pointed out, past patterns arent an infallible guide to what the market will do in the future. If they were, the game would be a lot simpler than it actually is.

Still, the economic news in the past few days has been interpreted by many Wall Streeters as cause for hope that the market can break out of its late-1983 slump soon.

The Commerce Department estimated last Wednesday that the growth of the gross national product, ad

justed for inflation, has slowed to a 4.5 percent annual rale in the fourth quarter of the year from 7.6 percent in the July-September quarter.

That figure went a long way toward quelling fears that the expansion of the economy was in danger of "overheating - accelerating to a pace that would revive inflation and set the monetary authorities to tightening credit in order to tryto slow it down.

Allen Sinai, economist at Lehman Brothers Kuhn Loeb Inc., called it "welcome news for the financial markets.

The latest figures on inflation struck a similar note. The Consumer Price Index in November was up just 0.3 percent from October and 3.2 percent from November 1982, showing its smallest yearly increases since the 1960s.

NEW YORK (AP) - The U.S. airline industry can look back on 1983 without a shudder for the first time since its record $1 billion profit year of 1978. And 1984 holds the prospect of a further recovery from disastrous losses of recent years.

We see a pretty good84, says Lee Howard, economics vice president for the industrys Air Transport Association. And in 1983, he says, airlines will show an operating profit for the first time since 1979.

Particularly for airlines, however, operating profit is a long way from Iwttom-line net profit, primarily because of t|ie interest on the

enormous debt incurred to .constantly upgrade their fleets.

A single, new jetliner costs from $15 million to more than $50 million, and the major airlines operate upwards of 200 each. Howard says the airlines probably will pay well over $1 billion in interest in 1984, wiping out any profit for the year.

But some analysts say the picture is not that bleak.

Charles Hanneman, who follows airlines for the Wall Street firm Thomas McKinnon Securities Inc., says; Traffic is up, earnings are up, losses are smaller. On that basis, 1984 looks to me like a very good year.

The latest readings on inflation have surprised many economists who believed the continuing progress of the expansion would almost inevitably push prices higher at an increasing rate. After all, that was the way things always went in recovery periods in the recent past.

"The 1970s experience convinced most observers of the economy that real economic growth is inevitably inflationary, observed Edward Yardeni, economist at Prudential-Bache Securities. We all seem to

root for weak real growth, fearing that strong growth will rekindle inflation.

While some airlines will do well, others will not, analysts agree. Howard says there tend to be wider profitability swinffi among airlines than in industry in general.

For example. Delta Air Lines consistently showed a irofit, until its most recent : iscal year, while Pan American World Airways was rolling up staggering losses - including an industry record $480 million l(s in 1982.

Both are now recovering, and Pan Am chairman Edward Acker has wagered rhis $350,000 salary on the airlines showing a 1983 operating j^fit - though not necessarily a net profit.

8.12 The Daily Reflector, feenville, N.C. Sunday, December25,1963Computer Industry Expects Marketing To Be Factor

By JAMES PELTZ AP Business Writer

NEW YORK (AP) - The industry will introduce faster and more advanced computers in 1984, but forecasters say marketing will play a greater role in determining winners and losers.

Whatever evolution the computer market takes, the once high-flying video-game industry will keep contracting -largely because of personal and home computers. And analysts expect more companies to fall by the wayside as the industry shakeout continues.

Attention remains focused on personal computers used mainlv bv business, and advances in those machines in 1984 could further threaten more traditional computer markets.

Most popular personal computers now handle 8 bits of information - or one character - at a time. But in 1984 the "32-bit'' desktop computer is expected to arrive, and with it, the long-awaited emergence in the market of American Telephone & Telegraph Co.

AT&T already makes an (grating syst^n called UNIX that has garnered strong demand for use in 32-bit computers. An operating system is a component that controls a confputers ba^ic functions. '

AT&T is mum on personal-computer plans, but many analysts say AT&T will unveil a machine that it believes makes the biest use (rf UNIX.

While major, an IBM-AT&T battle would not nec^rily overshadow the rest of the industry. George filling, an analyst at the investment firm of Op^nheimer & Co., says AT&T "still has to learn how to market. They dont have any idea how to do that as of right now.

Also, Apple Computer Inc. soon is expected to introduce a new personal computer called Macintosh, which might restore some of the market share Apple lost to IBM and others.

The 32-bit world has been the mainstay of makers of cabinet-size minicomputers, such as Digital Equipment Corp.

and Data General ^Corp. That sector could finther erode as

MiSde Preston, an analyst ISTf. Rothschild, Un-terberg, Towbin, says the industry will continue to shake out some producers in 1984 for reasons other than technology.

Having fancy hardware alone is not enough at a time when the computer market is aiming more at inexperienced customers - especially large offices bent on automating. That means companies will have to successfully market, distribute and supi^ their products.

Some compames will faU these and other tests, such as maintaining enough'space on dealers shelves amid some 100. competitive machines, she predicts.

Much of the computer fireworks in 1963 came in the home computers - machines costing $500 or less.

Following a brutal price war that erased profit margins at many companies, Texas Instruments Inc. pulled out of the home market and Atari Inc. lost $536.3 million in the first three quarters of 1983.

Commodore Inteniational Ltd. is expected to keep its No. 1 position in that maitet with its $200 com[Niters. But much of the market is seen moving upscale - providing mwe com{ter at a hi^r price and using value to entice customers.

IBMs PCjr, for example, costs from $700 up, and Coleco Industries Inc. s new Adam system costs $700.

The PCjr, which becomes available in early 1984, is said to bring stability to the home-computer market by creating a standard in that industry and a price umbrella - allowing competitors to avoid further price cuts and still remain competitive.

But that market too could see a new competitor in 1984 -Japan.

Miss Preston says the Japanese could well begin selling IBM PCjr lookalikes at cheaper prices than the IBM machine. And the Japanese already have large distribution channels for consumer electronics.'

Harvard Team Excavating Ancient Settlements in Bavaria

Text And Photographs By Kennoth C, Danforth, National Geographic News Service

LANDSHUT, West Germany - From the terrace of Trausnitz Castle, high above the red tile roofs and pastel medieval facades lof this little Bavarian city, one looks n(Hlh across the Isar River to a patchwork of fertile fields that rise to a low-running ridge of spruce trees.

The castle is old. But more than 2,000 years before the castle was begun in 1204, families out on that horizon were already building stock pens, weaving cloth, pressing cheese and making in general the foundations of European society.

It is not from such heights that one learns the enduring story of human achievement in this fertile valley. One must go down from the castle and cross the river to a treeless terrace where the Celts dug in for good. We can be glad that they did dig in, for plowing over the centuries has erased any aboveground remains of their houses.

Seek Origin of Cities

Little known to most Germans, Harvard University archaeologist Peter S. Wells and 14 American students have been out there digging three millenia into their past. They seek in the hard loess soil of these Bavarian hills nothing less than the origin of cities.

Hascherkeller and Altdorf - places not yet in the textbooks - were learning how to meet the challenges of settled life in the late Bronze Age and early Iron Age. Wells and his students, mostly from Harvard, are

meeting the challenge of reconstructing a prehistoric society out of sheep bones, bits of bronze, clay sherds and tiny blue glass beads.

Around 800 B.C., says Wells at Altdorf, something happened.

He straigtens up from the carefully sifted dirt from which a small bronze pin has just been lifted, wipes the grime from his brow and thoughtfully rubs the pin while he places it into the mental data bank he has built up during five summers of scrabbling in this hard earth.

What happened?

There was a revolution then as important as the neolithic revolution or the industrial revolution. Suddenly, at the end of the late Bronze Age, we began to have the first commercial settlements. Families could exist in the same place for 200 to 300 years. We can assume theyd learned manuring and crop rotation. Before this time, they had just exhausted the land, and then moved on.

Work Under Pressure

The sites where a handful of Celtic farmers first decided not to move on to another field, but to replant where they were, today are at the edge of onrushing residential development. Sometimes Wells and his students are one day ahead of bulldozers, and their scraping and sifting are often shadowed by mounds of construction and dirt.

The Bavarian state archaeological office has funds only for quick rescue of

historic artifacts, not (* complete aielysis, and it welcomes WeUs work, wluch is support^ by the National Ge(^ai^c Society.

Wdls students, for five summers now, have mariced off the site meter by meter, scrap^ the dirt a centimeter at a time, shaken tons of it through screens, washed, sorted, and catalogued fragments, and painstakingly pieced together the culture of an age though lost.

The ground surface where jpwple lived was destroyed in the Iron Age, says Wells. The settlement level is gone. So all we have comes from pits. Farmers dug down to store their grain. They put storage vessels in their cellars. Often, they dug out hollows in workshop areas - for example, to hold their looms.

In weeks of digging at Altdorf last August, Wells party found three bronze pins that are rounded, with one end pointed, one end knobbed. That tells him that they were used to fasten clothing, for tools pins are flat along their entire length and sharp on both ends.

Although it is common to find complete jewelry items in graves, it is quite unusual to find them in settlements, says Wells. That we found three of these items at Altdorf suggests that they could afford to spare some of the valuable bronze from more essential toolmaking needs.

Copper and tin, the components of bronze, are not found anywhere nearby, so they had to be transported

from afar. To Wells, this means one thing; trade. And trade meaifi that the farmers had a surplus (rf somet.

fitmi the famous salt mines at Hallstatt, which today is an Austrian resort.

The people in this valley .......salt

Weaving Implements Found

In additton to a possible surplus of grain, which still flourishes here. Wells believes the pwple were trading wool. His students have found many loom weights and spindle whorls, which is evidence obvious enough. More sophisticated is their analysis of sheep bones.

The bones reveal that the sheep lived to an old age. Thus, Wells says, they were kept for wool, not their meat. Analysis of pig bones proves that they were always slaughtered before they were two years old, confirming their use for meat.

The notion that Europeans were engaged in active trade as long ago as 800 to 1000 B.C. goes against popular concepts of "barbarians who had to be taught every vestige of civilization by Greeks and Romans.

Wells believes that trade was the major vehicle not just for the exchange of goods, but for ideas. He scorns old theories of mass migrations of tribes across Europe - those familiar red and blue arrows that sweep across the pages of textbooks.

Those theories are dramatic, says Wells, "but they arent supported by evidence. I believe most people stayed home.

Among those who did not stay at home were traders coming more than 100 miles .

probably bought their sail from Hallstatt, says Wells. The communities were contemporaneous, but there were p^e devoted soley to commerce.

Prehistoric Luxury Items . "What allowed places like Hallstatt to have a thriving commercial life? The fact that places life Altdorf and Hascherkeller were producing surpluses. Usually, the people here were not trading for things they needed, but for frills, such as little blue beads we find here, and graphite, which they used for decorative glazing on their pottery.

So these early activities were creating needs for things that they had gotten along just fine without. This early trade stimulated farmers to produce more food so they could buy things, and it stimulated commercial centers to produce more things to sell.

Wells plans to return here in summer 1984 to complete his study of the hamlets.

"Professor Wells work is at the leading edge of archaeology on the continent, says Colin Renfrew, renowned Cambridge University archaeologist and author of "Before Civilization.

Asked if he knew what Wells meant when he said "something happened in 800 B.C., Renfrew replied, Of course. From then on, Europe really became Europe.

Evidence

SCREENING MATERIAL . . . Two Harvard archaeology students (Alexandra Morse, left, and Nicole Rousmaniere) screen materials that the students in the background have just excavated from the postholes of an Early Bronze Age house at Aldorf, Bavaria. The screening turned up small fragments of

pottery, animal bones, and other material which reveal much about the people who lived there. Peter S. Wells, leader of the project, believes the farmers had learned enough about agriculture to allow (hem to inhabit the site for hundreds of years and lay the foundations of commerce in Europe.

Christmas Celebrations Varied in The U.S.

Text By Boris Weintraub, National GeographicNews Service

WASHINGTON, D. C. - In Bethlehem, Pa., the descendants of Moravian settlers follow an old custon each Christmas. They build elaborate scenes, as large as a room, filled with recreations of small towns, bucolic rural vistas, figures from everyday life. Then they go from house to house to see each familys creation, knownasaiMitz.

In the nations Hispanic .communities, families celebrate Christmas by staging las posadas, processionals in which residents act out the search for room at the inn by visiting neighbors and meeting symbolic and preplanned rejection before find prearranged success.

In Greek Orthodox homes in Astoria, N. Y,, women bake a trailitional Christmas rice pita cake with a charm inside. The child who gets the piece with the charm is considered a lucky winner.

Indigenous Traditions Tho^ there are certain constants of Christmas celebrations everywhere in the United States - a Quristmas tree, Santa Claus,

candles, the sharing of gifts - a large number of traditions are local or regional, known to those in one community and different from those celebrated elsewhere.

Often, as in the case of the putz or las posadas or Christmas pita cake, those traditions are the result of ethnicity. Just as often, they include foodways traditional with a given ethnic group.

Of all the aspects of ethnicity that persist when a group has been here a long time, the two that persist longest are foodways and holiday celebrations, says folklorist Susan Samuelson.

Samuelson has been studying the celebration of Christmas since 1977, and recently earned her doctorate at the University of Pennslyvania with a dissertation about Chrtistmas celebrations in this country. Her conclusions about the persistence of ethnic holiday traditions are borne out by other folklorists. ,

For .example, Samuelson says, Csech American in the San Francsico Bay area follow a tradition of eating carp on Christmas Eve before going to midnight

Mass. On the other hand, the Christmas Eve meal for Italian-Americans in Ham-monton, N. J., usually includes squid, smelt, oysters, and clams.

Residents of the eastern shore of Maryland, where life centers around the

Chesapeake Bay, use oysters eirholK

to stuff their holiday turkeys.

reports Charles Camp, the    * Iklorist.

Maryland state folklorist. But resident of the more landlocked aeas of southern Maryland serve a Christmas meal with home-cured ham, known locally as old ham.

Decorating Differences Methods of decorating for Christmas vary widely. Samuelson says that shopkeepers in Fremont, Calif., traditionally hire artists to paint Christmas scenes, usually with non-religious themes, on their store windows.

In Baltimores row house

neighborhoods. Camp says, de<

paintings, and other homemade items. Camp says.

"The decorations usually are counter to the current decorating fashions like those featured in womens magazines, says Camp. And unlike suburban areas or neighborhoods like Chicagos Sauganash, where home decorations draw visitors from other neighborhoods, "no family wants to better the Joneses, because they have lived together for generations.

Some regional or local traditions have a religious basis. Steve Zeitlin, folk arts coordinator for the Queens, N. Y., Council on the Arts, rpcalls a stoiy he collected while co-editing a book on family folklore for the Smithsonian Institution.

A Russian-American man remembered going to his grandmothers house, kneeling cm the floor for an hour, and praying in Slovak, says Zeitlin. The youngest chUd was placed in

no religious basis. In western Maryland, Camp says, it is common to eat dinner early in the day, because Christmas comes during the deer-hunting season, and it is traditional for men to go hunting that afternoon.

Recent Developments

This is not quite a radical a notion as it might sound. Samuelson found in her research that until the coming of the 20th century, Christmas as not celebrated prir ily as a religious holiud^ in this coun^. In fact, among some religious groups such as the early Puritans, it was frowned upon to celebrate Christmas, because the holiday was thought to have a pagan history.

most home owners decorate their windows and doors for the holiday season. Such decoration is usually modest, cooHsting of assembiases of old ornaments, Chileans

a basket of straw, to symbolize the Christ Child, and

everyone ate a lot of garlic, to symbolize health for the coming year.

But many traditions have

The stones (left, front) were for grinding and polishing. A good selection of animal bones is in the foreground. Farther

along the table are fragments of pottery. Archaeologist Peter S. Wells and 14 American students, mostly from Harvard, have learned that the Altdorfers traded wool and an agricultural surplus for beads, metals, and salt.

A Review

Sea Chest Treasury From The Outer Bonks

Sea Chest. Buxton, N. C.. Published by students of Cape Hatteras High School. Paper. 7 x 10 inch format, illustrated, Spring/Summer 1983.60 pages, $.50. (Maybe ordered from: Sea Chest, Cape Hatteras School, Buxton, N, C.. 27920. Subscription rate, $5 for two issues i.

went there to praise the Lord and if we wanted suppers and things like that we went in the school building."

It's too late to get yourself or a friend a copy of this delightful publication for a Christmas stocking insert, but its an ideal time to order a copy as something special for an early in the year literary treat - or even as an unexpected gift for the upcoming Chinese New Year festival.

What registers so vividly in this and also in earlier issues of "Sea Chest" is that to a great degree, customs and ways of living that in many locales today would be termed old-fashioned, on the Outer Banks in many instances are still a part of everyday life to(lay especially for the older generation. While it's true that modern transportation, including a network of connecting bridges to the mainland has alleviated the isolation of the Outer Banks that existed as recently as 40 years ago. there is much that basically remains unaltered on these sea and windswept outposts of the Atlantic.

As one old timer remarked to me this past summer, "touristers come and go and bresh up against us, but we holds on to what's ourn.

The what's ourh lies at the heart of the articles on people, customs, work, education, crafts, church life, and the ever-present sea around these islanders reported on by changing teams of talented students who year by year. turn out award winning issues of "Sea Chest."

The age-old belief that for best results, gardens should be planted by the signs -based on the waxing and waning of the moon, is still practiced faithfully by-Co u r t n e y I W h i t e y I Whitehead. He has a chart for what to plant at times of dark nights, below ground crops like potatoes, turnips and carrots; and at the time of moonlight nights, above ground vegetables such as beans, corn, cucumbers. Evidently it works, for Whitehead is known throughout the area as a wizard in raising bumper gardens of cucumbers, peppers. tomatoes, collards, peanuts, popcorn and other vegetables. He also keeps a horse and a pony - "he plows his garden with the horse and the horse's manure makes excellent fertilizer." During non-gardening periods, Whitehead enjoys

hunting with his live hound dogs.

Among other articles in this issue are ones about the way Bill Sawyer and John Conner. Sr. make fishing lures that have gained wide popularity; the methods and gear that Gary Rogers uses for spearfishing; reminiscences by Zack Owens of Kinnakeet, when he delivered the islanders' mail by-boat: how resident Sam Jorgenson learned boatbuilding in Norway; Alziria Miller's recollections of the terrible storm of 1944; Boyd Gray's telling of his experiences at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7. 1941; and a lead article of the building of the Elizabeth II. a replica of the type of vessel that brought English colonists to North Carolina 4(M) years ago.

This magazine is a treasure of brief articles told in the straightforward writing of high school students. It has something of interest to appeal to just about any -eader

JERRY RAYNOR

But as the holiday became linked with a religious theme, another tradition developed: griping of a specific kind.

If you read the mass magazines back into the 1890s, says Samuelson, its interesting to see the articles complaining that Christmas is becoming too secular, too commercialized.

The variety in each issue of Sea Chest" provides fascinating insights into the lives of Outer Bankers. A few examples from this issue are:

Mrs. Lizzie Austin, an 83-year old resident of Hatteras, gave her opinions on a number of topics. On marriage: "You took the bad with the good. Sometimes it got pretty bad for some women, but they stuck with it. On religion: "We didnt use the church for eve^thing then. The church was just for worshiping. We didnt have supper in the church. We

farming Of Trees Requires Waiting

LITHONIA, Ga. (AP) -After four years of prepara-tk. Mae Duvall opened her Christmas tree farm only eight days befcare the holi-day.

The five acres she owns in DeKalb County, a short drive fron downtown Atlanta, will yield thousands of Christmas trees in the next few years. The farm is a choose-and-cut cpratioo, where they supply the saws and customers

manpower.

5. Duvall, with the help of her 13-year-old son John, opened the farm for business 17 after four years of waiti^ fcH* the seedlings to grow into trees.

James Foster opened his five-acre farm nearby on the same day. Mrs. Duvall and Foster got into % project together, when Foster and her late husband, Robert Duvall, visited a tree farm in Athens.

We couldnt decide between pecans and another crop, as we tried to choose a productive crop, said Mrs. Duvall.

Pine trees were the choice, and Foster and Duvall ordered several thousand Virginia pine seedlings at $12 per thousand. The seedlings they planted in early 1980 are the 5-to-8-foot specimens Which sold for $5 to $20 each this year.

But it hasnt been all peace and rest in the pine patch. Beyond the work of spraying for insects, mowing and shearing, there is always the fear of bad weather.

This year, when it didnt rain after August, growth was stunted, Mrs. Duvall said. New growth after the July shearing usually amounts to several inches, covering the sheared ends. But this yean .the lack of rain brought only an inch of growth or less.

Lots of peq)le think we plant trees and come back in six years and harvest them. Thats not true, said Ed Ruark of Jacks Creek Christmas Tree Farm in Bostwick, located between Atlanta and Athens. It takes 292 man hours to produce an acre of Virginia pine at age 5.

Ruark and his wife, Karen, own 71 acres - 60 of them planted with about 100,000 trees - where they have been farming Christmas trees for 13 years and selling them for nine. White pine, Virginia pine and red cedar are in the 1983 crop.

Ruark, a retired forester, planted 10,000 white pine seedlings last year - and lost all of them due to consistent lOOKlegree temperatures in July. At 25 to 35 cents per seedling, the loss adds up, but wont be felt until five years from now, when the trees would have been harvested, he said.

But ru plant again and start over, said Ruark. He will plant about 35,000 seedlings this winter at a cost ranging from $18 per ^ousand for Virginia pine, to $320 per thousand for some kinds of Scotch pine, to $670 per thousand for Leland Cyprus.

Ruark has experienced a survival rate of as much as 94 percent to 96 percent or as low as zero.

When survival is less than 70 percent, its not econom-to carry the crop, he

ica

said.

Ruark estimated he had more than $3,000 per acre invested in his trees, roughly $3 per tree, with more than . 1,000 trees to an acre. But the ; difference between that $3 and the $13 he charges per tree (any kind, any size) is 'not pure profit, he said.

: From the time theyre ^ Wanted, theres work to do, M said. At the beginning

Is just mowing and insect

but later you have to Utart shearing. And thats ^ when the hours add tq>.

t Ruark employs three full-! time wwkers and one part-: time employee.

; With three peqijle working, the Duvalls do their shearinf > in three weeks in May am

Christmas Spirit Dominates Pitt County Schools

ByMARYSCHULKEN ReflecUH* Staff Writer

The sound and spirit of Christmas filled schools throughout Pitt Q)unty during December as students and teachers celebrated the nativity season with plays and concerts.

Bands, choirs and drama groups planned and practiced their tributes to the holiday throughout the fall and then performed them for fellow students and communities just prior to the merry seaswi.

Christmas activities werent limited to performances, however, as ctecorations, many of them made by students, filled the halls and classrooms of schools.

A number of Pitt County students also wrote cards to the Marines in Beirut, Lebanon, wishing them Christmas cheer and telling them they appreciated what they were doing for the United States.

At Ayden-Grifton a huge card was constructed by two English classes for the Marines and all students in the classes , signed it. A.G. Cox students made a cassette tape for the marines featuring Christmas carols and holiday wishes.

At Bethel Elementary, the Christmas program, titled "Tiny Tim's Christmas," was dedicated to the Marines in Beirut. The dedication was appropriate, said Bethel Principal Janie Manning, because one Bethel student. Larrissa Purvis, has her father, Tyrone Slater, serving with the Marines in Lebanon.

Group's Goal is Friendship By Mail

BOYERTOWN. Pa. lAP) - In the past, the Boyertown area Citizens Concerned for Tomorrow has focused efforts on alerting Americans to the nuclear threat This year, the group is trying a different tack: attempting to contact Soviet citizens by mail with the hope of eventually making friends in their country.

The group will compile a written and pictorial portrait of Boyertown, complete with basic statistics and history, photos, personal letters and artwork from Boyertown schools, and send it to the residents of a town in the Ukraine called Bogodukhov.

Founded in the middle 1600s and situated 370 miles northeast of Odessa, Bogodukhov has a population of about 10,000. is in an area of rolling hills and contains automobile-repair, clothing and furniture factories. It is surrounded by fruit, meat and dairv cooperatives.

Boyertown-Bechtelsville-Ba lly area has a population of about 13,000. is situated in gentle rolling country, and contains the Boierdown Auto Body Works, clothing and textile mills, orchards and dairy farms.

The project is part of a nationwide program of Ground Zero, a non-advocacy nuclear war education organization based in Portland,

Ore. The program, modeled after President Dwight Eisenhower's Twin Cities Program of the 1950s. aims to pair more than 1,000 U.S. cities with Soviet counterparts.

The Boyertown group intentionally will avoid sending ideological or philosophical messages in the package, because Soviet officials probably will withhold any-thingmailed to the Bogodukhovians that smacks of propaganda,

Julia H. W'agner of Main Street in Bally, one of the organizers, said the information mailed to Bogodukhov need not carry any particular message but just simple details of everyday life.

Those details - what Boyertown residents eat for dessert, how they dress, the way their schoolchildren smile - are enough to remind the Soviets that Ameri

cans also are humans. Ms. Wagner said.

Ground Zero hopes that after the initial contact is made by mail, the paired cities can form closer ties, eventually organizing exchanges of cultural events, athletic teams, government officials and Jcommunity groups. /

Copies of the packet are to be sent to the mayor of Bogodukhov, the schools and the Soviet Ministry of Education.

Liquor

Sales

Studied

JACKSONVILLE, Fla/ (AP) - A Bible belt city that is nevertheless mindful of attracting more tourist and convention dollars, Jacksonville is wrestling with the issue of Sunday liquor sales.

Currently sales of alcohol are allowed only six days a week in this northeast Florida port city of 570,000.

But neighboring communities and counties permit Sunday sales.

With current exceptions to the law in Jacksonville, and more loopholes on the horizon, some law enforcement and government officials are considering changing the law entirely.

I "The law is just too in-fonsistent, said City Councilman Ed Holtsinger, who mtroduced a bill to allow ' Sunday alcohol.

, You can drink at the Moose Club and other private clubs, at the Beaches and ethers places on Sunday. The sheriff tells me the law we have now cant be enforced, tloltsingersaid.

"It has been extremely embarrassing to us to work it, agreed Sgt. Larry Hudgins of the Jacksonville Sheriffs Office.

"We have to defend it in court and try to explain to various people why they Cant sell liquor on Sunday. The law is so trivial it is ^diculous, Hudgins said.

Dr. Jerry Vines, a pastor at the First Baptist Church, $aid it is not just Sunday sales that the church opposes.

^ We are opposed to the sale of alcoholic beverages by anyone, at any place, on any day, Underscore any day, said Vines, whose 14,000-member church has the second-largest Southern Baptist congregation in the country.

There are five excepttofis in the current law banning .sales of wine, betT and liquor on Sunday: airports, hotels with more than 100 rooms, restaurants, fishing camps and private clubs.

The law stipulates beverages must be consumed,on the premises, but Hudgins said that is widely abused.

"You can go to a fishing camp and buy all the booze you want, he said. They go through the motions of opening the bottles or cans for you because youre supposed to drink it there.

Recently, there has been an effort to allow bowling alleys an exctiption to the law. And there have been rumblings of allowing beer in the Gator Bowl, where the citys new United States Football League will play some Sunday games.

Drinking is allowed in private sky boxes at the stadium. But many fans dont think its fair to the average ticket holder who would like a l)eer during a game.

Jay Litt, manager of the Sheraton at St. Johns Place, where Sunday sales are allowed, said they constitute an important part of the trade,

"Now that tourism is beginning to really take hold in Jacksonville, I favor the Sunday sales, Litt said. It is difficult to tell a tourist he cant drink on Sunday.

And whatever is good for the citys economic growth. Im for it. We dont want to send pwple to other counties, Litt said.

Holtsinger said he expected opposition from my fellow Baptists, and some fellow councilmen told him it would be "political suicide to support the measure.

I know the Lord says, "Lead us not into temptation. 3just want to be fair, the ^Tuncilman said. I would ke to see everything shut n on Sunday. But if Ire going to do it for a

ew, lets do it for everybody.

Holtsinger said it would,be -Jse to keep the revenue in ^ city, a position that 3neans little to religious ^ Jeaders.

I have nothing good to say about drinking. We get ' hundreds of people here every year who need help ; and at least 50 percent of them have alcmol-related ems, said the Rev. -_,el Ellison of the citys Rescue Mission.

Fixed-Interest Mortgage Becoming Elusive

ByJOHNOUNNIFF Associated Press Writer

NEW YORK (AP) - The fixed-interest home mortgage is still available if you look hard, are willing to pay a premium and can bargain with power, which is to say you have a sizable savings account with the lender.

But its days are numbered.

Youve been hearing that for some time, of course, but now its for real. Previous vtamings were based on what lenders hoped to do, which was to protect themselves from market volatility through adjustable rate mortgages.

Now the warning is based on what they must do. Choice has been removed.

It has been removed mainly by the new marketplace, in large part a creature of congressional action and in some ways a product of the changing habits of American savers.

Whatever, most money deposited with home lenders these days is for short terms. Unlike old-fashioned passbook savings, which used to sit untouched in an institution s vaults, the new money goes where it can get the best return.

More than 50 percent of money comity into savings and loan associations, f(x example, is in certificates of six months or less, and some in fact may reside in their vaults only ovemi^t.

For this reason, says Paul Prior, new chairman oi the U.S. LeagiK of Savings Institutions, we must make loans mareet-responsive." That means adjustable rate mortgages. We wont make anything else, he says.

Bad memories and strong emotions lie behind such statements. Many S&Ls stiU havent recovered from the bad times, when their books were filled with 8 percent loans while the prime interest rate rose to as high as 21 percent.

And, since, they were limited in the amount of money they could offer to deposit(XS, they lost the depositors too, mainly to the newly conceived money market mutual funds. S&Ls were constitutionally unfit for the mariietplace.

Congress last year helped correct the problem by authorizing savings institutions to offer money market accounts, or deposit accounts on which they could offer competitive rates for specified periods of time.

The money flowed back in. It came home, as S4L people Hit it. In fact, it now appears that savings irstitutions are leaded for a 8100 billion gain in deposits th& year, double the record ol $50.2 billion set in 1977.

They have also eclipsed all records fw home mortgage loans. In just the first 10 mwiths of 1983, more than $110 billion in mortgages have been placed, topping the $108 billion for the full year M1978.

But there is a difference. Since deposits are committed for short periods, the lenders must reoffer depositors higher, competitive rates if intoest rates in general rise, lliat, or lose deposits.

If they offer hi^r rates to savers, however, they say they must cover themselves this time by raising rates on existing mortgage loans. Hierefore, fixed-rate loans are out, adjiKtable are in. Of necessity, they say.

Most people seem willing at this time to accept adjustable rates because, for the time being at least, the economy is enjoying interest-rate stability. Tales abound, in fact, of homeowners who have had rates lowered.

But what hamens when rates begin to rise, as ttey might if inflation rekindles? What might happen if inftetion tten forces the ecwiomy into a decline, accompanied rising unemployment?    . ^ l-. u

People will be madder 'n heU, says Pnor. And w^ he didnt say so, it seems conceivable th$t leodm might m forced to make further, temporary adjustments in thet,. already adjustable terms.    

But out of it, he suggests, there might develop a new political force that hasnt yet been eyaluat^.

Before, people applauded inflation, he said. It added to home values and it made the borrowers repayments easier. In the future, he said, they will see their monthly payments rise.

And, he continued, when they see at work some of the factors that promote inflation, such as government-overspending, they will say just a ... minute Mr-Politician.    .. ^

A new constituency might develop, said Pnor. It coukP become an anti-inflation force in the country.

AN YOUR HO

Q. 1 want to give a friend a plant for Christmas. Do you have any suggestions other than poinsettias? (O.R., Mars Hill)

A. Kalanchoes have lots of small star-shaped blossoms of red, yellow, orange and pink. Some azaleas are forced especiallv for the Christmas season. Two popular varieties are Chimes and Redwing. African violets are generally available year-round. Gloxinias and begonias may be available from some florists. Christmas cactus is a traditional favorite. Jersualem cherry and ornamental pepper have fruits that are as colorful as any flower. Dont discount dish gardens just because you want to give a flowering plant. Most dish gardens consist of foliage plants, but some have a small flowering plant as a centerpiece. Dish gardens can also be made more festive by the addition of cut flowers such as carnations, roses and chrysanthemums. After the flower or flowers fade, your friend will still have an attractive arrangement of foliage plants.

Q. Will any of the low-growing junipers grow well in soggy soil? (N.C..Wilkesboro)

A. No. Junipers should be planted in well-drained sites because they are susceptible to root rot.

Q. How often should I water my poinsettia to keep it in bloom as long as possible? (J.B., West Jefferson)

A. Examine the plant regularly and water whenever the soil looks and feels dry. Avoid placing your poinsettia where it will receive drafts from doorways or excess heat from television sets, radiators or heating ducts. Your plant will last longer if it is moved to a cool room (no cooler than 50 degrees farenheit) at night.

Q. How much light do African violets need in order to bloom" (R.O., Black Mountain)

A. Natural light of adequate intensity to induce African V'iOicts to flower is difficult to Qhtain in many homes. Even when the proper intensity can be obtained, ihe duration is frequently not of sufficient length to insure flowering. African violets should never be exposed to light intensities exceeding 1.300 foot-candles. t At noon on a bright summer day the peak light intensity is around 10,000 foot-candlesi. Intensities higher than this will cause the plants to turn to light green and the leaves to become small, crinkly and leathery. If light IS insufficient, plants produce dark green leaves with long petioles. Best results are obtained when the light intensity is approximately 1.000 to 1,100 foot-candles for at least seven hours per day . The plants should be exposed to direct sunlight during the early morning hours when the intensity isnt too high. East w indows are excellent locations.

Here's the Answer

THE PRODUCT - A different type of rachet screwdriver. Manufacturer's claim That this screwdriver differs from a spiral rachet screwdriver because it is turned with a twist of the wrist, as with a standard driver, not by pushing down on the handle, as with a spiral model... that the user, when driving or lo(ening a screw, can turn the screw repeatedly without removing the driver from the screw slot or sliding the hand around the handle for a fresh grip ... that the mechanism allows the handle to rachet back after each turn while the blade and tip remain stationary ... and that the driver has a forged hex socket, enabling the operator to change bits for different screw heads.

THE PRODUCT - A socalled bright white acrylic latex flat house paint.

Manufacturers claim - That this paint has superior wet adhesion and excellent water and blister resistance ... that it resists fading, cracking and peeling better than most comparable paints ... that is can be brushed, rolled or sprayed ana recoated in three hours ... that it is recommended for use on new or previously unpainted wood siding, shingles, shakes, trim, masonry and primed surfaces ... and that it is packed in a 2-gallon plastic pail for convenient use,

The previous owner told us nothing had been put on the floor but a penetrating sealer. He did not know whether urethane could be put on over the sealer, which was used about five years ago. What do you think?

A. - You can safely put the urethane on the floor. Just be certain the floor has been vacuumed thoroughly and all stains have been removed. The urethane will protect the floor and be very durable, but it will not hide stains or other mars.

Wall systems can solve the problems posed by shrinking living space. As a result, sales are up for the multipurpose storage units which can be used in a variety of rooms.

At the recent Southern Furniture Market in North Carolina, a number of manufacturers introduced new systems or showed expanded offerings.

According to a trade publication retail sales of wall systems are growing fast. One retailer, for example, said this type of furniture represents almost 15 percent of his sales. But five years ago, it contributed only aboutS percent.

Most wall systems purchased in the U.S. are installed in the living room. But they are beginning to turn up in other rooms, too.

The wall system is replacing the conventional china cabinet and buffet server in the dining room, supplanting the triple dresser in the bedroom, and competing with bookcases and etageres in dens and family rooms. Systems with beds concealed within are even turning family rooms into occasional guestrooms.

Not long ago, consumers who wanted to purchase wall systems had to shop at specialty retail outlets. Today, most furniture stores offer both imported and American-made wall systems.

David Hull, an executive with Interline Co., which has been importing its moderate-price European-made systems for five years, said his firms sales had multiplied 500 percent during this time and that the top furniture chains in this country now routinely carry wall systems.

Werner Meier, an importer of higher-priced systems for the past six years, says consumers cau^t on faster than retailers to the advantages of a wall of specialized storage options which could be customized to suit different needs.

Not only urban dwellers appreciate the fact that a single wall of cabinetry can shelter such diverse items as clothing, housewares, hobby equipment and home entertainment components, he

THE PRODUCT - A hand-held vacuum cleaner especially suitable for home workshops.

Manufacturers claim - That this plug-in cleaner is excellent for, workshops because of its ability to handle wood chips, paint chips and other materials most other vacuums either cant get to or pick up easily ... that this is due to its extra-large opening that creates an air flow strong enou^ to do tough jobs quickly and powerfully... that it is lightweight, portable, works on regular 120-volt power and has an 18-foot cord and wall-mount bracket and cord wrap for storage ... and that its container is easy to empty, has a l.S^juart capacity and comes with a reusable dust filter.

said. Customers often come into a retail store seeking such a solution to storage needs.

In many instances, consumers are sophisticated enough to have taken measurements of their rooms and to have a list of the type and amount of possessions to be accommodated in the wall system, he said.

These Americans are only doing what Europeans have done for a long time. That is because most European homes and apartments are built without the closets Americans consider essential. As a result, storage systems must be purchased or built into all the rooms where such space is required.

European manufacturers are ola hands at designing and building such systems. They often have automated equipment enabling them to produce a variety of components with many storage functions.

The machinery makes possible an exact fit so that when the components are assembled in a home, all the doors hang straight and the cabinetry lines up evenly and so looks as if it were built in.

In this way, the system provides a custom solution to storage needs, but does not require expensive custom construction on the site. The key to keeping costs down is to design units with the same

overall dimensions but a variety of interior fittings and decorative finishes, Meier said. ^

A system made in Germany, for example, comes in a choice of nine woods, two lacquer finishes, eight door-front styles or optional mirrored or fabric

fronts. There are three d( pths, and several height and width variations. Interior options include pull-out and swivel shelves, wire bins, conventional drawers or? open shelves behind glass doors or solid doors. Units which turn a corner make it possible to line an entire room with cabinetry.
