Catftiously Optimistic ReportAnnounces Third Viet Cufbock
By JOH.N M. HIGHTOWER \P S|)ecial Correspondent WASHINGTON (AP) - President Nixon is pulling out another 50,000 troops from South Vietnam but over a longer period than he allowed for previous withdrawals, evidently because of the growing possibility of a major new enemy offensive.
Nixon announced his third cutback in a television speech Monday night. He set April 15, four months from now. as the deadline for removing the
50,000. For his two previous withdrawals he had allowed about three months each.
The President coupled his announcement with a renewed warning to North Vietnam that he will take strong and effective measures if he finds that increased enemy action jeopardizes our remaining forces in Vietnam.
tary leaders in Vietnam. He quoted from a report made to him by one observer, Sir Robert Thompson, a British veteran of anti-Communist warfare in Southeast Asia, who was, Nixon said, earlier pessimistic about the conduct of the war.
Thompson as saying.
Nixon did not say he agrees that a winning position has been achieved. But White House (Oficiis did not quarrel with the assessment.
At the same time he said he had received cautiously optimistic reports from observers and from U.S. civilian and mili
A winning position in the sense of obtaining a just peace (whether negotiated or not) and of maintaining an independent, non-Communist South Vietnam has been achieved but we are not yet through. Nixon quoted
Nixon said, however, there is one disturbing new element in the situation:
Enemy infiltration has increased substantially. It has not yet reached the point where our military leaders believe the enemy has develop^ the capability to mount a major offensive, but
we are watching the situation closely to see whether it could develop to that extent."
His choice of an April 15 target date to complete the neu-troop withdrawal, officials said, gives him more flexibility to assessand if necessary adjust to a Communist offensive and still meet his withdrawal deadline. His advisers believe that if North Vietnam launches an offensive it will come in the Janu-ary-March period.
There are some who believe, Nixon said, that to con
tinue our withdrawals at a time when enemy infiltration is increasing is a risk we should not take Howevm I have consistently said that we must take risks for peace.
"And in that connection. he continued, "let me remind the leaders in Hanoi that if infiltration and the level of enemy activity increase while we are reducing our forces, they also will be running a risk.
Last June. Nixon started the troop withdrawal program with
announcement of the removal of
25.000 men by the end of August. In September he said another
35.000 would come out by Dec 15. Both rounds have been completed. By April 15 the third round should bring the total of removals to 110,000.
The actual troop level when Nixon made his first announcement was 542,500 men. which will be reduced to 432,500 by April 15.
In his broadcast Monday night Nixon used a slightly different set of figures based on maxi
mum authorized strength. That is normally somewhat higher than actual strength. White House officials said.
The ceiling figure when he look office was 549,500. He said with his new order that ceiling has now been reduced by 115.500 men." indicating the cuts in authorized strength total about 5,500 more men than withdrawals based on real strength.
Nixon called the new reduction in force another orderly step in our plan for peace in Vietnam.Glenn Cox Appointed Principal At Rose High
By JERR Y R AYNOR Reflector Staff Writer
Glenn Cox, Associate superintendent of the Greenville City School, was named principal of Rose High School at the meeting of the Board of Education last night. The appointment, an interim one, is to be effective through June 30, 1970.
Cox will replace Edward Warren, present principal, who last month tendered his resignation to be effective at the end of December.
Members of the board approved the appointment. Superintendent Dr. Cleet C. Cleelwood stated that continued efforts were being made to seek a full time principal for Rose High for the next school year.
The Personnel Committee of the Board of Education asked Cox to consider accepting the principalship after efforts to located suitable outside replacement or Warren failed to yeidi a candidate of the qualifications desired for this post.
Cox, a native of Elizabeth City, is a graduate of East Carolina University. He received his masters degree in school administration at the University of North Carolina. In May 1967 he qualified for the advanced administrators certificate and was the first administrator to receive the Sixth Year Certificate in Professional Education from ECU.
For four years Cox taught science and mathematics in High Point. From 1960-1966 he was principal of the East Southern Pines School in Southern Pines, a school of 55
teachers serving 1200 students.
Cox is married, the father of two school age children, and is a member of Immanuel Baptist Church, where he serves as a deacon and as superintendent of an adult Sunday School department. He is currently president of the Greenville Civilan Club.
GLENN COX
Commenting on the appointment, member Harding Sugg stated: I want to say now that the citizens of Greenville and this board owe Glenn Cox a great deal for accepting this job in a time of crisis in the education system at Rose High. Dr. Cleetwood reported to the board on the result of the Superintendents Winter Conference he attended in Durham earlier this month. He touched on three topics which he stated were foremost at the conference, student unrest; teacher activism; and involvement of citizens in school

affairs.
He noted the pattern is general in student Superin-slatewide. The State Superintendent realizes this, and has appointed a Task Forde of 16 students from different parts of the state to work with him. In fact, we have one student from Rose on this Task Force.
Citing the situation at Rose at this time. Dr. Cleetwood commented: An uneasy quiet prevails. A little of the unrest is related to situations in other schools, some of it to the situation in the community, the marches and protests. Im not ready to say our problems are over, because we still have
something of a tight rope situation.
The board agreed to consider approaches to the idea of a joint type Citizens Advisory Council which would include a wide-range representation of citizens appointed to be an advisory body to the school board. This has been tried by a number of schools, and has its advantages, Dr. Cleetwood remarked. Board members will be ready in January to offer recommendations and concrete approvals on the possibility of forming such a council in Greenville.
Dr. James Bearden, a board member, gave each board
Adopt Amendments
The Greenville City Council last night, in a special session, approved ammendments to a lease agreement for the Moyewood (Community (Center.
The Community Center at the Moyewood public housing project, which includes a large building formerly the Pitt County School Bus garage and three acres of land, will be leased by the city from the Housing Authority and will be used as a community center and recreation facility.
East Carolina University plans to establish a day care center there while the city Recreation Department will maintain a recreation program there. Pitt Technical Institute and other agencies are expected to conduct adult education programs at the center, also.
Under ther terms of the ammendments approved last night, the property will revert to the Housing Authority which can cancel the lease agreement if the city fails to operate a community program there, or fails to provide their portion of funds for remodeling and equipping the facility.
The agreement calls for the city to provide some $20,(X)0 to help offset the cost of renovating and equipping the community center. The Housing Authority and federal government will provide some $60,000 to finance the estimated $80,000 project.
Alcoholic At 10;
Drug Addict At 11 And Dead, At 12
By ELIZABETH BASSETT .Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK (AP) - Walter Vandermeer was an alcoholic at 10, a heroin addict at 11, and dead at 12, the youngest drug death in the citys history.
"Hes just a child, a real kid, Dr. Michael Baden, assistant medical examiner for the city, said Monday.
One of 10 children, Waller was expelled from school two years ago. He was supposed to go to a school for troubled youngsters but didnt.
Baden said the boy claimed he sold newspapers in Harlem and delivered groceries for the $85 or so he earned each week.
After he performed an autopsy, Baden said the boy apparently died about 1 or 2 a.m. Sunday while shooting up in the common bathroom of a four-story tenement on Harlems West 117th Street.
He was discovered 14 hours later, Baden said, surrounded by a set of works^needle, bottle top and two empty heroin packets. He was wearing a Snoopy sweatshirt. Watch out for me. I want to bite someone to release my tension, was written across its back.
Waller lived with his mother andsflister a block away from where his body was found.
Baden said that in investigating the death he had talked with several of Walters 10-and ll-year-old friends, all of whom knew he was taking heroin.

member a copy of a two page letter dated December 15. Addressed to Dr E B Aycock, chairman of the board, the letter takes note of the current situation in Greenville.
With this in mind, I would like to recommend that the chairman of this Board appoint a committee from this Board to meet with a like committee from the Greenville City Council along with the atlornej^s of each group to explore the feasibility of moving toward the establishment. of a Board of Education elected by the Citizens of Greenville.
Dr. Bearden stated he will make a motion on this suggestion in the January meeting.
Such an idea of strengthening education by linking schools intimately to a system of political accountability is not a new approach. It is being practiced throughout this State and Nation. Whether the results of this study will be the recommendation of such a change or not is unknown. No matter what the recommendation. it should demonstrate to the public that the Board is anxious that its actions clearly represent the will of the
public, within the confines of the various laws empowering it," Bearden stated.
Dr. Cleetwood told the board members he will soon call a workshop session to discuss fully
all the alternatives for making decisions for the junior high situation for the 1970 .school year
He also asked the board if they had any objections to having a
planning group from the Raleigh come down soon to study the entire school situation in order to make recommendations for a possible course of action. Board

turbed, Baden said.
Knowing they will die doesnt prevent them from using heroin, the doctor said. Its not a logical thing. Part of shooting heroin is that it is a virile thing to do, risking death is virile, the forbidden thing is attractive.
He said children like this are not normal or healthy, that even if there were no heroin, they would still be antisocial.
It isnt just poverty or legal enforcement, Baden said. Some people are mentally ill. The white guys like this end up in hippie communes. One-quarter of the citys 800 heroin deaths this year have been teen-agers, Baden said. Of these more than 50 were 16 or younger. Walter was the youngest by far.
Children are using heroin like marijuana because of peer-group pressure," Baden said. In the past six months we have had a tremendous increase
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) Smiling, bouncy little red-haired Kristie Lyn Slater. 5, is back home in Chattanooga after being found in an Atlanta department store two days after she disappeared here.
Kristie was returned by FBI agents to her parents arms after was abandoned by a man in the toy department of the Atlanta store who told her her mother would pick her up there.
The little girl disappeared from the toy department of a Chattanoota store Saturday night while she and her mother were shopping.
Patrolman R. E Jackson of the Atlanta crime prevenljon bureau said Kristie told him a rpan in a car bigger than my daddys brought her the 120 miles to Atlanta.
Neither the police nor the FBI gave any information on where Kristie had been in the intervening 48 hours.
But a relieved father. Randall Slater, .said, Now I can sleep tonight as he carried the little girl from the car in Chatta-tanooga.
Hundreds of police, rescue squad members and volunteers had searched the area around the Chattanooga shopping center Sunday and Monday for any trace Of the tot and a helicopter was brought into action Monday in a 2'L'-hour sur\ey of the residential section.
Officers said a woman told, them she saw a blond-haired man carrying a little girl through the parking lot Saturday night and the girl was saying, let me go; I want my mother.
Atlanta officers also said a man and Kristie were believed seen in Atlanta earlier Monday.
Kristie was the third young Tennessee girl to disappear in recent weeks. The others, Kathy Jones, 12, o Nashville and Glenda Sirman, 13, of Knoxville, were both found murdered.
Tobacco disease control practices for 1970 was the main topic for discussion last night at the annual tobacco meeting as area farmers heard extension specialists. Dr. W. K. Collins and F. A. Todd, give the outlook for the up-coming leaf season.
Todd. extension plant pathology specialist from North Carolina State University, told farmers that tobacco diseases cost flu-cured growers over $20 million in 1969 and reduced the value of the crop over four per cent.
Compared with the 1968 crop, he continued, percentage losses were less but leaf growers lost more dollars because of the increased value of the crop. We ni>ed more than one dollar worth of control for each dollar spent," he reasoned.
Pitt County farmers suffered from almost every tobacco di.sease. this year, Todd .said, in addition to the tremendous hail damage.
Overall, los.ses to root-knol, blank shank, Granville wilt, F'usarium wilt and various other leaf diseases were reduced this year as compared with previous crops, he said.
5) consider the use of multipurpose disease control treatments; 6) use proper methods of spplicalion of chemical soil treatments; 7) control brown spot; and 8) disk in stalks after harvest and repeat step two weeks later.
Todd termed the rotation .system the backbone of a good disease control program
A discussion of new products that will be available on the 1970 market and a general information session on sucker control and harvesting was lead by Collins.
New management practices, proven through state testing and extension research, were revealed last night as well as rotation combinations that are designed to increase crop value and control disease at the same time.
Collins advised farmers that tobacco should not be cut off following a hail storm unless the damage is very severe. The severity, he added, should be 75 per cent or more before cutting off the stalks.
Test have shown that the tobacco can make near its normal yield and value with a fairly high degree of leaf damage, he said, especially if the damage (xcurs early in the growing .season
In those test, tobacco was damaged by breaking stalks and leaves, tearing leaves and punching holes, .simulating hail damage in the field. In the very near future. Collins added, insurance adjustments will be better in line with the actual damage in the fields
In addition to a great deal (A graphic information last night, both s^Hcialist brought along slides showing actual fields of tobacco and a variety of diseases that are being studied.

Burns Are Fatal In
At the same lime, losses to masaic and other virus diseases tended to increase slightly. For Pitt County, as well as in numerous other counties across the slate, brown spot caused more damage to tobacco than any other disease and cost farmers $5,600,000 in loss. Todd pointed out.
Trailer Home Fire
Todd revealed an eight step program formulated by extension specialist that is designed to control diseases and increase net profits.
Basically, the plan involves a recommendation to; I) plan a rotation system; 2) select the disease resistant Vyariety with care; 3) control plant bed diseases and prevent spread of mosaic (leaf infection); 4) use suggested nematicide if needed;

Would you like to see the baby now? asks the caseworker. The young couple nod silently. As they enter the small room, the caseworker leaves them in the privacy (rf this special moment.
Before them, bathed in the soft sunlight (rf late afternoon, is a bassinet in the corner. There lays the baby, only six weeks old, stretching her small arms and yawning, as she looks at the two faces hovering above.
The young woman lifts the baby tenderly, her eager hands fumbling briefly at the blankets. Suddenly she clasps the infant to her, tears streaming down her cheeks. Her husband swallows nervously as he places his arm about her shoulders.
Do you think you want to keep her? he asks in a halfhearted attempt at a joke.
Her radiant smile makes words unnecessary.
The scene is non-fiction. It is life, unrehearsed. The husband describes it as one of the truly dramatic moments in the lives of three persons: the couple who are realizing parenthood otherwise denied them, and the young infant finding in these arms the permanent reluge of being loved and needed.
Today, that six-week-old baby who smiled up from the bassinet over four years ago is a beautiful, brown-eyed girl with long chestnut hair. Only last week she broke some unexpected news to her father.
Daddy, she confided as they rode to the market together, it makes me sad to say this, but I may grow up and marry some day.
Well, that will be fine, darling. I hope 'youll marry someone very nice and someone you love a lot.
Daddy, said the bride-to-be, with tears glistening in the big brown eyes, no matter what, youll always be my daddy.

ABOUT 300 TIMES EACH YEAR . . . the first meeting of a baby and its adoptive parents takes place in the
nursery of The Childrens Home Society of North Carolina, Inc.
Society of North Carolina, Inc., brought together a child and adoptive family. Each time it was uniquely special, and ever-new, for the staff of the Society, as welt as for the adoptive couple. Since its founding in 1903, The Childrens Home Society has been dedicated to the highly sensitive, responsible mission of fulfilling the right of children to permanent, secure homes.
The services of the Society,
available through its seven offices across the state, are voluntarily-supported through United Funds and direct gifts. Traditionally, its Little Red Stocking appeal during the Christmas season provides a major portion of the contributions, whicb made possible the continuing, growing miracle of its work. Believing that the
child-parent relationship begins with love, the Society feels that the Red Stocking appeal is, in essence, a means to keep the door open to that special room in its nursery. Through the opening 0 this one door, the Society opens doors into childrens hearts which, were it not for adoption, might remain closed forever.

Strength For Today
By EARL L. DOl (iL.ASS WE MAY BE W RONG
A minister was asked by his ten-year-old son recently: "How come, Dad, you never ask me what Im going to be when I grow up? "Well. replied the parent, "what are you going to be? The boys eyes sparkled as he said: Im going to be an auto racer." "Why that," said the boys father, is dangerous And the reply of the youngster was: What isnt dangerous except being a minister*
Several factors of real significance had escaped the boy. In the first place, ministers have often found themselves in situations of great danger. To be a courageous and testifying minister in the days of The Inquisition wrs about as dangerous as any employment human beings have
ever encountered. The minister w ho really preaches the gospel has to speak out against many things his parishioners approve of and are doing every day .Multitudes of people both within and without the church are continually tr>ing to gei away with something. The something they are trying to get away with may not seem important, but it may grow into something vastly important. To be a bad exaipple before youth is an evil that^ should make anyone tremble. Young people are quick to note changes of opinion on the part of their elders, and they go all out in their criticism when they do ojbserve this The young people to day are not a Yes, Yes group. This is to their glory. But young petle can be wrong, just as often as their elders are wrong, and they should be encouraged to face this truth wheteher they like it or not.

Conetoe, Midred, Kingsboro and later Scotland Neck.
In hearings before a state Utilities Commission examiner in Tarboro, mayors of some of the affected towns have protested that the proposed service would not be satisfactory.
Once a station is closed, it is never reopened, Mayor Ferd L. Harrison of Scotland Neck said.
It is very likely that the affected communities are not fighting a trial period for the mobile service; they are fighting against what will almost surely become a permanent arrangement if the trial period is allowed.
Abroad area is covered by the plan which SCL has proposed. For this area the hope of future growth and prosperity is in industrial (ievelopment. Without adequate freight service these communities will be at a disadvantage in seeking industrial development, or even changing what is produced on the farms.
It is difficult for us to see how a mobile agency serving the entire area can be as effective as agents at each of the stations involved. We doubt, too, that an industrial prospect would see the mobile service as an asset if he wished to place a plant in one of the communities.
We would encourage all of the affected communities to continue the fight to keep their agents.
Use The Easier Way In Serving Warrants
Law enforcement officers in Mecklenburg recently used again an unusual system of serving warrants on persons charged with liquor violations.
The ABC officers called 68 persons on the telephone and told them to report to the Charlotte police department for booking on charges of illegally selling liquor.
Amazingly all but five of those turned themselves in. The five who did not show up will be arrested when they are located, it was reported.
If this trend continues officers wont have to leave the station in order to serve warrants. Perhaps, though, it is a tribute to the ABC officers. Those who were faced with being served with warrants may know that the ABC officers, like the Canadian mounties, always get their man.
white House Not Neutral
By ROWLAND EVANS and ROBERTNOVAK
WASHINGTON-The degree to which President Nixon has undercut his own anti-poverty chief, Donald Rumsfeld, was revealed last Thursday in a remarkable conversation between a senior Republican Congre.ssman and a top White House aide.
The Congressman was complaining about Rumsfelds quiet quest for a Presidential letter to House leaders of both parties for thrightly opposing an amendment which turns control of the poverty program over to state Governors. The Congressman was informed by the White House aide that not only would no such letter be written but that Rumsfeld had been instructed to stop such lobbying efforts immediately. That removed Rumsfeld's last slim hope of defeating the amendment in the House,
Thus. Mr. Nixons attitude toward Rumsfeld in the House poverty fight was not hostile neutrality, so apparent on the su^^face, but outright hostility. That reflects not &nly the idiosyncratic manner in which the Nixon White House handles Congressional relations but also symbolizes deepening ideological polarization in the Republican party
At one pole on this issue are Rumsfeld and a few progressive Republican Congressmen, who still believe their party can expand its base among the poor and the black. At the other pole is the House Republican leadership, dedicated to capturing the 1968 Wallace vote. On this as other issues. Mr. Nixon hesitated between the two poles, then allowed himself to he drawn, irresistibly, to the conservative pole along with most Republicans.
Actually, during the interregnum a year ago President - elect Nixon all but decided to eliminate the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO), the LBJ-created poverty agency. That was welcome news to Republican Congressmen who had spent four years crusading against OEO.
Once in the White House, however, Mr. Nixon had second thoughts. Prominent advisors particularly, Robert Finch, Secretary of Health, Education and Welfarepersuaded him to preserve OEO under a topflight director with Cabinet

The Roots Of Violence
status. Rumsfeld, one of the most promising younger Republicans in Congress, was talked into surrendering his safe House seat from Illinois. Nevertheless, Mr. Nixons commitment to the pov'erty program remained doubtful.
The Presidents attitude became vitally significant because Rumsfeld at OEO quickly embarked on a collision course with the House Republican leadership. Reversing his old Congressional position, he fought against a takeover of OEO functions by Governors (who, in major industrial states, are Republicans answerable to suburban and rural constituencies). Rumsfeld warned that that would destroy the program, but most Republican House members (and their Southern Democratic allies) couldnt care less.
An added complication was Rumsfelds sour relations with many old colleagues. Conservative Republicans had not forgotten the, night when Rumsfeld and other young Congressmen (dubbed Rumsfelds Raiders:( kept the House in session attempting to force Congressional reform. Moreover, Rumsfelds privately expressed low opinion of Congressional ability had filtered into the Republican cloakroom.
the point of no return for accommodation between Rumsfeld and the House old guard came late in November when he asked Rep. John Anderson of Illinois. Republican caucus chairman and the most liberal of the partys House leaders, for a telephone whip check of Republican sentiment about OEO. Rep. Les Arends of Illinois, the 75-year-oId whip, was enraged at what he regarded as an encroachment on his domain. Storming about the House floor, Arends snapped that he was making whip checks when Anderson and Rumsfeld were in "in diapers. By early December, only White House intervention could save Rumsfeld from his own party. But when Rumsfeld met with key House Republicans Nov. 29 on Capitol Hill, he got no help ' from White House aides present. Rather, in urging Rumsfeld to bend, they clearly sided with the House Republicans. The story was identical at a second meeting a fewldays later in the White House.
Accordingly, nobody expected Mr. Nixon to come to his beleaguered poverty czars assistance.
The week of the Black Panther shoot-outs happened* also to be the week in which the National Commission on the Causes and Prevention of Violence wound up its work. In the midst of a season of peace on. earth, good will towards men. we are asked to

Other Editors Say
A Victory Of Sorts
(Richmond Times Dispatch)
The National Council of Churches has done something that should give a little bit of encouragement to the millions of moderate and conservative Amerfcan church members whose views largely have been overlooked by the Council.
It rejected the bid by a strongly militant social activist to become president of the organization and, instead, chose a more moderate social activist for the job.
The presidential bid turned down w-as that of the Rev. Albert B. Cleage Jr. of Detroit, who called the Council a white recist institution and who termed as "asinine dribble" the statement of a fellow black clergyman who had expressed vocative words and actions of black radicals such as James Forman.
Mr. Cleage also is the author of a book which asserts that Jesus was "a Black Messiah born to a black woman
But despite the defeat of the Rev. Mr. Cleage at the Detroit meeting of the Council last week, one could only describe as ludicrous the charges made by extreme
liberals as cited in yesterdays news story headlined; Council of Churches Hit as Being Conservative.
The new president, Mrs. Cynthia Clark Wedel, a 61-year-old Episcopalian of Alexandria, is no con
servative.
She was a leader of a w'omens march on Washington last year protesting the war in Vietnam. and neither her
background of activities nor her acceptance speech as president of the Council gave any indication that she is a conserv'ative.
And at its meeting last week, the Council:
Voiced disagreement with the U.S. governments explanation of the Vietnam war as a struggle to defend freedom from Communist aggression.
Expressed support for organized dissent against the war and called on church members to participate in anti-war demonstrations.
Urged member churches to provide pastoral, financial and other assistance to American draft evaders seeking refuge in Canada.
If this is conservatism, may heaven save us from liberalism!
reporl(Kl at all. The commissions fair guess is that perhaps 2.400.000 offenders were involved in these crimes. It is a gqess that numbs the mind.
No such conditions obtain elsewhere. Our homicide rate, as the commission noted, is more than twice that of second-ranking Finland, and from four to twelve times higher than the rates in a dozen other advanced countries including Japan. Canada. F^ngland, and Norway. We lead the civilized world in rape, robbery, and assault. The past decade has seen a 200 per cent increase in arrest rates of boys, 10 to 14, on robbery charges.
What has produced this apphlling picture of America today? The commissions principal answer lies in its study of race and poverty in the central cities. Violent crime is largely an urban phenomenon: and within the major cities it is largely the work of young black males. What drives them to robbery, assault, murder, rape? What virus infects the Panther group?
If I read the commission correctly, a combination of environmental factors is responsible. In the span of a couple of general ions, at least five stabilizing influences have disintegrated: home, family, neighborhood, school and employment. The typical child of the black slums is reared with little loving attention from his parents. The father is "sometimes or frequently absent, intoxicated; or replaced by another man. He is often unemployed, unfair in his discipline, or treated without respect by others. No w'onder. the commission remarks, that a slum child grows up

Cigars For The Ladies
By JOHN CUNNIFF AP Business Analyst
NEW YORK (AP) - The cigar people think theyre on to something in teaching women to smoke. Already there are an estimated 100,000 women cigar smokers in America, and that leaves millions more to cultivate as customers.
Dont for a minute underestimate the seriousness of their intentions. With cigarettes under attack as hazards to health, the cigar people feel that their chances of luring women to the bigger weed are greatly improved.
They have redesigned their product to make it slimmer, more graceful in appearance and less obtrusive. They have mentholated it, flavored it with Burgundy, rum, cherry and other fruits and have put plastic tips on the end.
In order to better promote the product, they have named a former beauty queen, Judy Lynn Prince, as assistant director of the Cigar Institute of America, a job that requires her to tour the country, talking and puffing.
And just so the ladies wont ruin the act before it really catches on, the institute officials have issued rules of etiquette for female smokers.
Among the bits of advice:
Remove the cigar from the mouth between puffs.
Never permit the cigar to dangle from your lips.
Wait until everyone is finished eating before lighting up,
Remove the discarded stub from the ashtray promptly.
-Never smoke a cigar on the streets.
A few women have always dared to be seen smoking publicly. George Sand, the French romantic novelist of the 1800s, and Amy Lowell, the American poet who died in 1925, were among them. But they were known to break other conventions as well.
Greta Garbo, Mrs. Abe For-tas, Elizabeth Taylor, Lauren Becall and Marlene Dietrich are identified now as inclined to take a puff. And, it is claimed, some men will give their wives cigars for this Christmas.
This receptiveness of women to cigars is not fully understood, but perhaps it is part of the new freedom for women. Cigar smokers, some behavioral psychologists claim, are inclined to be achievers.
If cigar smoking is suggestive of aggressive, achieving, domineering personalities, therefore, the men should take a hint from the way in which women have taken to the pastime.
Otherwise it might not be long before he is denigrated by some poetess who, in mimicry of Rud-yard Kipling, will write:
"A man is only a man, but a good cigar is a smoke.

Many Effects In New Fares
By ELMER ROESSNER
New international price-fixing by the international air cartel, plus the introduction of new giant planes, will have many effects on the travel and resort business and bevond.
ELMER
ROESSNER
These effects may be:
A boom in transatlantic travel for business and vacations.
A fresh expansion of the already expanding hotel chains in Europe. While American interests are planning new luxury hotels, several European groups are working on^ plans for chains offering moderately priced
accomodations.
, The Caribbean and Latin American tourist business may be hit as low prices may draw away many prospective tourists.
. The rise of European tourism may increase the drain on Americas gold supply.
i:t .Xirlines .Agree
Earlier this year. Alitalia threw a skyhook into the transatlantic fare structure when it cut New York-to-Rome fares to $299. Other transatlantic airlines offered cuts, which, still in effect, 'provide bargain-hunters picnic.
The Internation Air Transportation Association convened at Caracas. Venezuela. .10 days ago to tackel the situation. The lATA fs the association of almost all international airlines and. while it hurts members feelings to be
called a cartel, it is just that. One line that has consistently refused to join is Icelandic, which cuts prices and that. t(M). hurts members feelings.
At the Caracas meeting, representatives of 43 airlines agreed on an off-season New York-London rate for groups of 80 or more spending 29 to 45 days abroad would be $250. a cut of $.50 from previously fixed rates.
This is the basic transatlantic rate and all fares are calculated from that. The New York-Rome rate, for example, would be $300. one dollar more than Alitalias cut rate. The cartelwhich is quite legal because it do^ not come under \u.S. lawA-alsb agreed upon an intermediate season, in which the New York-London basic group fare wiill be $255. For the summer season, the rate will be $295. The new rates are
effective April 1.
Jumbo Planes
The greatest effect on transatlantic travel will be the intrixluction of the Boeing 747. which will carry 375 passengers. These planes are the reason for shaving current prices. There will have to be a high rate of seat occupancy to make them profitable.
And to accomodate these masses of passengers, there will have to be more hotel rooms available. The travelers will support new restaurants and new resorts as well.
However, as the flood of travelers increases in 1970 as it will,unless there is a recession i more seyere than anyone now expectsmore dollars will be carried out of the U.S. and spent in urope. These dollars, when passed thnmgh central banks, can be claims on the U.S. gold slock.
Christmas Poetry Reading is Pianned For Thursday Night
A program of poetry reading by poets of Greenville and East Carolina University, reading their own worics is scheduled as a special Christmas season event at Greenvilles Art Center on Evans Street, Thursday night at 8:00 p.m.
Vernon Ward, director of ECUs Poetry Forum, says: Our aim is to present a wide range of poets and different styles. The poets range from a high school student to a mother and grandmother, and includes two ECU students, three faculty members an^ an officer of the Social Security Office.
Ward further noted that we welcome all types of con
tributors to poetry in the community, whether it is ole fashioned, sentimental, avant-garde, or whatever the particular style may be.
The poets and poetesses scheduled to read Thursday night are: Claire Pittman of ECUs History Department; Maxim Tabory, a Hungarian student at ECU who writes in both English and Hungarian; Anita Brehm, director of the Wahl-Coa tes kindergarten ; Fred Sorensen of ECUs English Department; Edna-Fisher, who prefers to be known as a mother and grandmother; Ann Marie Capps, a high school student in Greenville; Richard Capps,
of the
executive officer Greenville office of the Social Security Office; Woody Tluir-man, ECU student; Lynn Colcw^, wife of an ECU faculty member; and Ward.
The Poetry Forum of ECU sponsors and periodically produces issues of Tar Rivw Poets. To date, several of these (some now out of print) have been published. We send copies to a large number of poetry publishers, Ward commented. Many of the poets have had letters praising the poetry included in this series.
One leading publisher has asked Woody Thurman to submit manuscripts of his
work, Ward added.
^any of the poets have had poetry published in Tar River Poets, All have been published in this series, in o^her publications or boUi.
.o^Ward, the author of three volumes, including Of Stars and Dust, says the Poetry /Forum mfets every other Wednesday night at ECU. We always welcome participation by anyone interested, no matter what their interest is, he commented.
Edith Walker, director of the Art Center, states I hope a large number of people will be able^ to attend this special reading. I understand that Dr. Erwin Hester, chairman of tl^ English Department, will be on hand to comment on the poetry, she remarked.
The Thursday night poetry reading is free of charge Everyone is invited to attend.

with resentment of such authority figures as police officers and teachere.
The chaos of a slum household might be relieved by tranquillity in the schools or by stable employment opportunities. It seldom happens. Good teachers rarely remain long in the ghettoes; fearful for their personal safety. or discouraged by the intellectual poverty around them, they tend to depart.
The swift efficiencies of automation eliminate jjpbs for unskilled labor. Some slum children escape by luck, industry, and exceptional character. Others find themselveft on an escalator down. And they turn to crime
In times past, as the commission acknowledges, other racial and ethnic groups have encountered inner-city poverty and risen above their environment the Irish. Chinese. Jews. Europeans, Buth their upward movement came in a simpler day. when cities were smaller and religion loomed larger. They were victims of discrimination, true, but not the enduring, pervasive discrimination that has affected the American Negro.
Other causes play a part. The U.S. has the highest
gun-to- population ration in the world. TelevtSioh, motion pictures, the mass media, tend to glorify violent themes. Our prison system.
starting with juvenile detention homes, fails to exert a^ehabilitative'^ influence. in any given year, half of all offenders are repeaters Clogged courts grind out their verdicts slowly. Over burdened police cannot keep pace with demands upon them.
Add to all this the erosion of law that results from massive civil disobedience Consider the influence of pornography, eating away at the social and moral fabric. Give account to the temptations that stem from affluence Perhaps we should marvel, the commission remarks, that the situation is not Worse.
greater responsibility lies upon government at every level, and upon the people in e\ery community, than the responsibility of attacking the causes of violence and reversing the dark tides that swirl across our cities. "

EXPLOSIVE THOUGHTS
LONDON (AP) - Staff at the Chinese diplomatic mission called the police when they found a ticking parcel left on the doorstep. Inside was an alarm clock and two copies of The Thoughts of Chairman Mao.
MOSCOW (AP) - The Soviet Union made clear today it will not return the Kurile Islands to Japan and said it regards Japanese claims to them as a dangerous aggravation of tension in the Far East.
An editorial in the soviet communist party newspaper Pravda denounced the U.S.-Japanese agreement on the return of Okinawa as "a new military-political alliance ... which is openly aggressive in nature. Territorial claims by the Japanese ruling circles to the Soviet Union are an attempt at revision of the terms of Japans unconditional capitulation in world War II. the editorial said.
The Kurile Islands north of Japan were taken over by the Soviets, after World War II while the southern Ryukyu Islands, including Okinawa, came under U.S. administration.
After the United States agreed lo return the Ryukyus to Japanese rule by 1972, Japan began pressing the Kremlin for the return of the Kuriles.

Consumer Protection Seeing Results, Says
Role Is
Morgan
By(ARLTYER Rrnrctor Staff Writer North Carolina Attorney General Robert B. Morgan, attacked so-called Fly by night operators lhal Iry to deceive Ihc con.sumer, in talking Iasi nighi before the Greenville Rotary Club.
Morgan explained a new division of Ihe Allorney Generals office, known as the Consumer Protection Division, which tries lo do away with fradulent and deceptive practices by legitimate and illegitimate companies which cost North Carolinans lhou.sands of dollars each year.
If feel there is no other office which is more concerned with the public interest lhal the Attorney Generals office, Morgan .said.
Through Ihe establishment, of Ihe Consumer Protection Division, he added, We hope to help Ihe man on the street, and proleci the legitimate businessman that works and lives in his community.
I feel this new division had to be established because the consumer has lost a great deal of bargaining power. We are not against the free enterprise system, but the free enterprise system does not give t|;)e merchant the right to over charge, or run government regulated monopolies as a private domain.
Morgan explained, the Consumer Protection Division, through its six lawyers and four investigators, go through ' harges against individuals and

conipanies which they feel are trying to present a fraud, or commit a deceptive act against the consumer.
There are thrte areas which we are particularly interested in. he said, Anti trust, unfair and deceptive trade practices, and regulated industries.
He went on to present examples of actions, which have occurcd in North Carolina, ranging from individuals who were taken in hy bu.sinessmen that said they could provide significant loans for tbp^e who wanted to eilhg^Jjuild new builings such as apartment houses, or expand or begin a new venture, lo non-existani retail stores.
Some of these businesmen were taken in to the tune of al least $270,000," Ihe Allorney
Scott Praises Onslow Senator
RALEIGH (AP) - Sen. Albert Ellis, an Onslow County Democrat who died Sunday, was praised by Gov. Bob Scott Monday as a dedicated member of Ihe stale Senate.
Ellis was buried today in Onslow Memorial Park in Jacksonville.
Scott said in a statement, North Carolina is indebted to Sen. Ellis for his invaluable service, particularly for his work in court reform and airport development and on the I^egislative Research Commission and state Constitution Study Commission.
General added. However, through the Consumer Protection Division, we hope to bring these practices out, thereby protecting future individuals lhal might be taken in by such practices.
Still other examples, were those of a well known tire^ manufacturer which sold defective tires stamped for farm use only to a used car dealer, who placed them on automobiles.
Over 700 of these tires were bought, and I am happy to say tonight, that of my last report, all but 20 of Ihe tires have been recovered. If we do nothing else but this, I feel we have earned out money.
Morgan stated. There has
been some opposition to this new division, however,\sp long as we think we are doing th right thing, we will not be deterred.
"We feel it is a good service not just for the consumer, but for the businessman.
The last General Assembly past an Unfair and Deceptive Trade Act which was recognized by Ihe Federal Trade Commission, as a step in the right direction to protect the consumer, Morgan added.

A report on the transportation study was made, showing that there has Ix'en improvement in basses arriving on time; that the addition of one extra bus has made po.ssible the elimination of standing and overcrowded conditions; and that it is not possible to hire adult drivers, as they are not available.
This improvement has dealt effectively with one of the major grievances pul forth by the grievance committee. Dr. Cleetwood said.
Mrs*. Robert Kittrell, chairman of the School Facilities Committee, praised the December 7th dedication and ()}x'n house ceremonies marking the dedication of Aycock Junior High.

Industrial Output Sags
WASHINGTON (AP) - Industrial production, a key measure of the nations economic health, is continuing a steady decline from the peak it reached in July. Federal Reserve Board figures show.
The Fed reported Monday that manufactured products and utilities were produced in November at 171.1 per cent of the 1957-1959 base, down two full |X)ints from 173.1 in October. The July figure was 174.6.
The indicators fourth straight monthly decline gave new hope to government inflation fighters, who contend they are succeeding.
The index pointed in the op-jx)site direction from the most recent employment figures, which showed the jobless rale in Novemlx?r had decreased one-half of 1 per cent, rather than increasing as it should in a time of declining pnxluclion and piofil squeez(s.

Gamecocks Demolish Maryland's Terrapins
By TIIK ASSOi lATKI) PRKSS
The Gamecocks of South Carolina used superior height and an early scoring charge to down hapless Maryland, 101-68, in the only Atlantic Coast Conference basketball game between two league members Monday night.
Tom Owens led the fifth-ranked Gamecocks with 29 points, five more than the combined total of Marylands starting five players. John Roche pumped in 22 points in the first half and added five more to trail Owens in the South Carolina lineup.
Roche was also credited with 13 assists which ties a school record.
Owens, a junior center and Tom Riker each nabbed 17 rebounds, only two short of the Terps total.
The Gamecocks height stymied Maryland on the inside, blocking shots and beating them on the backboards.
The rest of the game was settled on the foul lines as South Carolina made 27 of 37 free throw attempts and committed
only 10 fouls.
Maryland cashed in on only four foul shots.
In other action involving ACC teams Duke continued to roll as it defeated East Carolina, 80-65, in an intraconference game.
The Blue Devils jumped to an early lead and dominated play as cold-shooting East Carolina hit only six of 20 shots from the floor in the first half.
The Blue Devils relied on their strong inside game with Randy Denton and Larry Saunders bottling up play under the basket to stop the Pirates.
Duke is now 5-0 for the sea son.
Jim Gregory was the games high scorer with 26 points for the losing Pirates. Rich Kather-man led Duke with 19 points, his season high.

IT TAKES A MAN TO WEAR A HATl
Club Football Growing Trend
By ( IIARLES ( IIAMBERLAIN Assniated Press S|MMts Writer CHICAGO (AP) - Club football is a growing campus trend which asks nothing of its college administrations but a blessing.
Some 50 schools which have been forced to drop varsity intercollegiate football over the years because of financial binds now had student-activated club teams.
They include such schools as Marquette, Fordham, St. Louis, Detroit and Georgetown. Loyola of Chicago is the latest to join the club football ranks after dropping the sport in 1930.
At Loyola, it was a bloodless, democratic coup with students voting an overwhelming 3,632 to 242 to tax themselves $2 per semester. The money will finance a team operating independently from the administration or athletic de|)artment.
Upwards of 40 hopefuls, whether they have ever played or not, are expected to make up the squad next fall which will schedule other club, freshmen arid junior varsity teams in the

area. Nominal admission charges will be made.
Eastern colleges this season drew as many as 8,000 fans for clubgames at a $2-3 ticket range.
This is Loyolas Centennial as well as footballs 100th anniversary and this helped stir interest, said Bill Grams, 22, a law student who ignited the movement.
Grams, who helped get club football at St. Louis University two years ago, said that I.xiyo-las ba.se will be $22.000 to provide for equipment, player insurance, field rental and the hiring of a coach for about $3,000.
Club football gets students involved in an area where they should be involved, said Grams. The real appeal is that its run and financed by the students. The students really wanted it.
When you have football at a school, you lake it for granted. When you dont you fight for
it.

DURHAM-"The Duke Blue Devils sent East Carolina University reeling to its third straight defeat here last night, rolling over the Bucs 80-65.
The score was not indicitive of the game. Duke could easily have score a lot more, but Coach Bucky Waters, who last faced the Pirates when he was at West Virginia, pulled his starters iriidway through the second period, after Duke had built up a 32-point lead.
The Pirates were plagued by turnovers, and the inability to hit from the floor. Only Dukes poor free throw shooting enabled the Bucs to stay as close as they did
sponded by leading North Carolina State over the American Athletes in Action, 96,71.
The Athletes are a national group of former college standouts who play a 28-dame schedule each year against top college teams.
The Wolfpack - Athletes game topped Vann Williford Day in the city. He scored 21 points on seven of 17 shots from the floor and pulled down nine rebounds before leaving the game with about nine minutes left in the game.
Bob Hodge led the Athletes with 19 points. Guard Ed Left-wich had 17 points for N. C. State and grabbed 10 rebounds. Dan Wells had 16 points and Paul Coder had 13 for the Wolf-pack.
Only one game is scheduled tonight in the ACC: North Carolina will visit Virginia.
during the first half.
The Bucs were guilty of 23 turnovers In the game, 12 coming in the first half when they counted so much against the Pirates.
And in the first half, the Bucs hit on only six of 20 shots from the floor, for a poor .300 accuracy. The Bucs only slightly improved that in the second half, when they hit on 17 of 40 for 42.5 per cent.
As Waters began to substitute, the Bucs began to pull back and make 't look favorable, Jim Gregory, who had suffered through two and a half bad games, began to rebound late in the game, and poured in 26 points in the game, all but two coming in the second half, and
all but eight coming in the final 10 minutes. Gregory was also the leading rcbounder for the gatne, with 15, while teammate Jim Fairley had 11. No other player on either team could pull down more than 10.
Foul trouble was again a problem for the Pirates, as two, Fairley and Jim Modlin, fouled out. Modlin. who has been the high scorer for the Bucs, collected his fifth foul halfway through the second half, and finished with 11 points. Fairley, going out late in the game, had 14 points.
While Duke drew away to a comfortable 17-point spread at halftime, it could have been much worse had the Blue Devils been hitting at the line. They

made only three of 10 in the first half, for a poor ao per cent. East Carolina didnt do a whole lot belter, making 10 of 20,
East Carolina never led in the game, and aside from a 6-6 lie. was never really in the contest. Rick Katherman put Duke into a 2-0 lead with a jump shot, and East Carolina got on the board with a foul shot by Jim Gregory. Randy Denton. hit from underneath for the Blue Devils, and Jim Modlin connected for the Pirates.
After Brad Evans and Jim Kiernan swapped baskets, Modlin hit on a free throw with 16:51 left in the half to lie it 6-6 But the Bucs went stale after that, and Duke quickly ran out to an eight-point lead.
With 15:42 to play. Dan Blackman hit on a tap, putting Duke back up. 8-6. Larry Saunders followed that up with a shot from underneath, and Randy Denton scored on a drive and Dick DeVenzio hit from the corner, making it 14-6 with 13:23 to go.
East Carolina finally got back on the board with a free throw by Tom Miller, and anStfier by Modlin. Duke pushed back out to an eight-point spread, and then to nine as Denton was credited fora basket after a goal-lending call, making it 18-9.
The Bucs continued, however, to have trouble hitting from the floor, and finally made good after Fairley connected from the line, when Miller hit a jumper with 9:38 to go. The Bucs had gone over seven minutes without a goal at the time. It cut the lead back to 18-12, but Duke pulled away again. A free throw by Denton, and a pair more by .Saunders, the only ones made by Duke in the half, and a bucket by Saunders pushed Duke out by 11 at 23-12, and after the Bucs twice cut it back to nine, Duke shot away again. DeVenzio, John Posen and Katherman each hit from the floor to run the lead out to 15 at 31-16, and the Bucs were virtually out of it after that.
East Carolina managed to cut the margin back to 13 late in the half, but a pair of baskets by Posen and Katherman made it 39-22 at intermission.
In the second half, things got even worse for the Pirates. Duke pushed the lead past 20 as Brad Evans drove into the basket
after two and a half minutes had fiis.spd The-Blue Devils then slowly built their margin to as much as 32 points, which came when Blackman hit a jumper to make it 64 ,32 with 11:48 to go. After that, the regulars came out. and the Bucs were able to whittle the lead back to the final margin, 15-points.
For Duke, Katherman was high with 19 points, his seasons high, while .Saunders had 14, a career high for him. Denton had 13 to round out the Duke scoring.
East Carolina, now 3-3, goes on the road again on Wednesday, playing in Winston-Salem against the tough Wake Forest Demon Deacons.

No Guarantees From Joe This Season
By MIKK RATII|<:T AssWiaird Press SpiMls WrUer NEW YORK (AP) - No. says Joe Namalh. No guarantees.
And that, more than anything else, is the tip-off to any ahalj"
juries and personnel changes; 3, conservatism in approach; 4, Namath himself.
Possibly foremost is the new AFL playoff system, which this weekend pits the champions of
sis of the Jets chances of successfully defending their American Football League championship and returning to the Super Bowlthe scene of their ascendancy last Jan. 12 to the No. 1 spot in pro fooibiill.
P'or Namath tells it like it is and whene\er hes been asked recently whether he will guarantee the Jets return' to the Super Bowl as he guaranteed their victory over Baltimore last .season he shakes his head, declines the offer and issues the stacca to di.sclaimer,
Why^
There are .several reasons why the Jets may not he the team they were last year 1, the new AFL playoff system. 2, in
the East against the runner up in the West and vice versa in semifinal clashes leading to the championship game and the Super Bowl.
The Jets took one look at AFL East before the season started, realized they were virtual shoo-ins for a playoff berth, and con-sc>quently lost the incentive factor. Many of the Jets, Namath included, have flatly said as much.
That hp been reflectcHi in an mabilit.^o got up mentally, a bang-up which the Jets might not be able to shake for the playoffs.
The playoff scM-up also has mitigati>d againjit the Jets chances of repc*ating because the svsteni itself throws an add
ed roadblock in their path. The Jets must whip Kansas City in the playoff game at Shea Stadium this Saturday before taking on the Houston-Oakland win-ner Jan. 4.
The Jets have been able to handle the 'Oilers this season, but were unable to defeat either Kansas City or Oakland during the regular season.
Injuries have ben a factor in the instability ^f the Jet defensive backfield, which lost a key component when safety Jim Hudson was injured, and may hfye test another keya mtich-needd cheerleaderwhen
Johnny Sample retired. Rookie starting comeback John Coch-ery also will be missing for at least the Kansas City game with
a shoulder separation.
The Jets also head into the playoffs uncertain about two All-AFL performerswide receiver Don Maynard, recovering from a brt*en bone in his light fooL and defensive end Gerry Philbin, recovering from a dislocated left shoulder.
Conservatism in approach has been cited by at least one coach.

By KEN iLAPPAPOIfT \ss<K'iiited Press Sports Writer Say. Adolph Rupp, how does it feel to be No. 1 again?
"It sure is nice to be on top-ils gratifying after all those years of frustration during th< 'w Alcindor era, says Rupp, qltra-successful coach of Kentuckys ba.sketball team.
The Wildcats, voted into the top s|K)t Monday for the st>cond straight week by the Associated Press nationwide panel of s|M)rts casters and sports writers, are reviving dreams of glory mr the winningest basketball coach.
"Ive never seen a bunch of lM)ys like em, Rupp said. "After a tough practice session Monday. I dismissed them and they kept running around the gymnasium because they didnt feel like they had enough practice.
"And thaits the reason were No. 1 in the nation.
Kentucky collected 616 points, including 22 first place voles, to reclaim the top spot over UCLA. The Bruins, who dominated the ix)lls with Alcindor showing the way the past three years, had ,576 points and seven first place ballots.
New Mexico State remained No. 3 with 423 points and Davidson stayed No. 4 with 385, but most of the remaining teams did the Rankings Shuflle.
Ohio U. did the biggest jump and Duquesne look the longest spill. Ohio U. leaped from 19lh to lOlh after beating Ohio State for its third victory over a Big Ten team and Duquesne dropi)ed from seventh completely out of the Top Twenty after losing to Nebraska and Iowa.
South Carolina went from eighth to fifth; Notre Dam^ from 10th to sixth; North Carolina, beaten by Kentucky last week, dropped from fifth to seventh; Tennessee stepped up a notch to eighth and Villanova moved frorn 12th to ninth among the Top Ten teams.
Kentucky has whipped four opponents this year, including lough North Carolina. How do the 1%9 Wildcats slack up against past teams, which have won 810 games for Rupp over 40 brilliant seasons?
"This club reminds me of the 66 team, said Rupp, whose club complied a 32-1 mark that yearbefore losing to Texas

Buffalos Jbhn Rauch, as a major reason why the Jets do not appear to be ihe team they were last season. There has been, in general, more reliance on sustained drives than scoring on a Namath bomb.
While Namaths arm can get the quick score on any one pass, sustained drives depend on efficient and steady execution, coupled with a defense that limits the point-scoring output of the opposition. The Jets have been dehcient in both areas.
Namath, meanwhile, has been a factor himself.
There is no way to
whether his preseaswi battle with commissioner Pete Rozelle riad any affect on the club. But
assess
ha
n should be considered. Various stories indicating he might retire after the season also should be taken into account.
But perhaps the factor that should be considered most is Namaths grWing outside business interests, drawing his attention more and more to a point where he admits that he has been distracted ,at times from pro football.
Every coach in the playoffs fully realizes that, even with Philbin, Maynard, Matt Snell
and other proven performers, the best guarantee the Jets have R)r returning to the Super Bowl is the shaggy-haired quarter-hack with No. 12 on his back.
But, lets be reminded, the best guarantee the Jefe have isnt guaranteeing anything.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Some 5,000 red and white lights on the national Christmas tree will be illuminated today when President Nixon presses a button.
The ceremony on the Ellipse, located south of the White House, marks the opening of the 1969 Christmas Pageant of Peace.
The pageant, sponsored by the National Park Service, the Pageant of Peace Committee and the District of Columbia Recreation Department, runs daily through Jan. 1.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal registrations of 15 antibug shelfpaper products have been canceled by the Agriculture Department because they are impregnated with long-lasting pesticides.
The products are impregnated with chlordane or lindane, the Agriculture Department said.
Letters cancelling registrations were sent to manufacturers Nov. 18. The ban will become official 30 days after receipt, or about Dec. 21 or Dec. 22. Products already in the retail market will not be recalled.
Officials said tests showed the pesticides were capable of contaminating some unwrapped foods.

The idea is to give junior executives and civil servants experience in both fields.
David J. Mahoney, chairman of the Presidents Commission on Personnel Interchange, conceded that an exchange could speed up the brain-drain from government into private industry, where salaries tend to be higher.
But, he said, We think we can take the steps to prevent it.
The first exchange is scheduled to take place next summer. The commission has worked out a system for screening candidates and placing them under restrictions to prevent participants from using inside knowledge for personal or corporate advantage.

Tar Heels Told To Think Ahead
RALEIGH (AP) North Carolina Lt. Gov. Pat Taylor says the state should think about changing to a unicameral legislature and electing fulltime legislators.
Taylor told the Raleigh Rotary Club Monday that North Carolinians must begin to think about changing some traditional forrns of government because change is coming so fast now weve got to start working immediately.
He said the urban sprawl of the Northeastern United States and the problems that go along with it are headed right for North Carolina.
Unless the government becomes more modern and efficient, he said, the result may be worse than what General Sherman did to us 100 years ago.
He specifically proposed merging the state House of Representatives and Senate into one house.
I would also suggest that the current number of 170 legislators be reduced to a smaller, more workable number, that they Take on this work as a fulltime job and that they be equipped with competent staff and research personnel, he said.

cheap handguns from parts made exclusively in the United ^States.
The net result: About the same number of cheap handguns are going onto the market today as before the laws enactment.
It didnt occur to me until recently that the law contained the loophole. Sen. Thomas J. Dodd, the legislations chief bngressional sponsor, said in an interview.
1 didnt know the importers were that greedy, the Connecticut Democrat said. We shut off the importation of this dreadful type of gun only to wake up and find out Americans are doing this. Its outrageous. As the laws first anniversary neared, Dodd introduced a one-sentence bill that would amend the act and ban the sale or delivery in the United States of any snub-nosed gun or small automatic pistol, as well as the junk guns which the National Commission on Violence says are used in 50 per cent of all crimes involving guns.
The United States still does not have an effective national firearms policy, the commission said last week. Among its recommendations: extension of the 1968 act to ban domestic production and sale of junk guns."
Except for the continued problem with cheap handguns, officials say other sections of the lawsuch as the ban on mail orders and interstate shipments appear to be working.
In California, for example, the sale of guns in the year ending last June 30 dropped to 146,468 from the 202,920 sold the previous 12 months.
The Internal Revenue Service, which polices the federal act, recommended 8% prosecutions from July through October, compared with 197 cases for the same period in. 1968. Most of the violations are for failing to disclose criminal records or for using fictitious names when purchasing a gun.
But IRS Commissioner Randolph W. Thrower told a Senate subcommittee it is difficult to statistically evaluate whether the law is preventing felons, juveniles, the mentally ill or drug users from buying firearms.
Latest FBI statistics disclosed that guns were used to commit 66 per cent of alt murders and 23 per cent of all aggravated assaults from January through Septemberprecisely the same percentages as in the similar period last year.
Before the law was passed, almost all cheap handguns came from abroad. In 1967, according
to government figures, 747.013 handguns of all typescheap and expensivewere imported.
In 1968, the total for all handgun imports jumped to 1,155,368. This included 317.703 handguns with an average value of $13 ordered in a two-week period of Senate hearings following the assassination of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy.
This year, imports of handgunsall of them the more expensive typeare down to 325,373. But the Treasury Department said companies tooted up and made 380,000 of the cheap pistols and revolvers entirely with U.S.-produced parts. In addition, parts for 408,000 weapons were imported for assembly here.
Therein lies the main loophole: A gun is nqt a gun until the parts are assembled. Except for the frame, all the parts can be imported. Even two-inch barrels can be imported by the thousands, although a single assembled gun with a two-inch barrel can not.
Dodd's bill would change that, applying the governments import standards to all guns sold or delivered in the United States regardless of where they are made. Small automatics and snub-nosed pistols would be banned, as would larger weapons that are unsafe, too light or so shabby they lack the accuracy for sport purposes.
The senator said he hoped fo get the bill through by early 1970, predicting, The gun lobby will buck it.
An example of the opposition was voiced by William Ethier, general manager of Firearms Import and Export Corp., Miami, one of the major gun importers. Ethier said his firms imports are down by half since last year, and claimed the legislative moves are discriminatory.
I think a lot of Sen. Dodds support comes from the gun manufacturers of Connecticut, Ethier said. If American manufacturers can restrict the import of equal quality weapons because they are made in a country with cheaper labor, theyve done themselves a service by taking a large segment of their competition out of business.
Dodd responded: "Discrimination is an empty word when youre talking about stopping murder and assaults. It took several tragedies to get the Gun Control Act of 1968. We may have to have more crimes to get
Student College Costs Increase
Girls like it...Men like it Is There a Better Reason for Giving
Old Spice?
! RALEIGH (AP)-Tuition and ! fees are costing college students in North Carolina at least 8 per and in some cases as much as 2^jer cent mor this year.
The North Carolina Board of Higher Education said in a report released Monday costs for residents of the state increased ' significantly and that those for non - residents underwent a I greater escalation.
The charges for residents rose ' 8 per cent at public senior in-
stitutions, 8.3 per cent at pub
lic community colleges, 10.9 per cent at private senior institu--' tions and 11.8 per cent at pri
vate junior colleges.
For non-residents, charges at public senior colleges rose 25 per cent, at public community colleges 13.3 per cent, at private senior institutions 11.9 per cent and at private junior colleges 12.6 per cent.
Comparative figures for in- creases in costs in other years
were not available.
Because of the increases, the board said, the average cost of
' tuition and fees at public senior
' institutions has risen to $365 for
! North Carolina residents; at
public community colleges $144;
' at private senior institutions $1,-
312; and at private junior colleges $846.
Room charges range from $130 to $607 and board from $300 to $720 the board said.
The highest increases in the state were at Atlantic Christian which raised its tuition and fees for Tar Heels 46.9 per cent and for non-residents 49.6 per cent. Both groups are now charged $875.

rid of this dreadful weapon. I hope not.
Four of Americas major gun manufacturersColt, Winchester, Remington and High-Standardare based in Dodds home state of Connecticut.
A Treasury Department spokesman said Dodds amendment would apply to some weapons now manufactured in the United States by such companies as Colt, which already has halted imports of a tiny semiautomatic pistol.
When the 1968 act went into effect, the large domestic companies merely dropped prohibited items from their line instead of importing parts and shifting assembly to their home plants.
Of the parts for 408.000 guns brought in since the law. the bulk were sent for assembly to a comjilex of buildings in Miami, Fla., including an old church surrounded by a barbed _ wire fence.
Florida state corporation files hsi the firm at the former church as RG Industries Inc.. with the principals recorded as Heinrich, Peter, and Guenter Hoehm Those same individuals are owners of Roehm Gesell-schaft of Southheim Brenz. Germany. which cranks out by the thousands the RG line of revolvers.
However, ireasury Department and Dade County records sho.w the licensed operator of the church-gun factory is tht wholesale firm next door, hag Cutliery Inc.. headed by Saul Eig.
Eig Cutlery formerly was the principal U.S. importer of Hoehm guns.
Unlike Eig, other major importers, such as Gemini Investment Corp. in Los Angeles and Firearms Import and Export Corp. in Miami, shifted gears when the gun control law went into effect and began importing onl/'sporting weapons, manufacturing nothing.
For instance. Firearms Import is the chief handler of the 14(),(K)0 Brazilian Arminius revolvers brought into the country in the first nine months of this year This re*folver qualifies as a "sporting weapon and thus is exempt from the import ban.
Another Florida firm. Valor Import Corp. of Hialeah, is listed in Treasury Department records as the manufacturer of guns from foreign parts imported under permits obtained by Mitchell Mogal Inc., New York City. The department said substantial quantities of firearms
and firearm parts are involved, but gave no figures.
Among companies making weapons which (rfficiajs say are comparable to the cheap imports, but fabricated entirely of U.S. parts, is CDM Products Inc. of New York. It holds a manufacturer-importer license issued Nov 12. 1968. but records show CDM imported no guns or parts.
Arms Corporation of America, .Nashville. Tenn., made 10,000 revolvers of the cheap 22-cali-l)cr variety in 1968 and officials said they planned to make :5.000 to 50.000 this year although they imported no parts.
In Miami, the Cuban refugees who earn $1.90 an hour or more assembling guns behind the bricked-up windows of the former church say they never discuss the ultimate users of the weapons.
One group which endsup with many of them are the gun experts of Americas police departments.
In Chicago this year. 1.066 of the 10.000 guns seized through Dec. 1 were cheap 22s^
Of the last 850 guns brought into the Boston ballistics laboratory. 122 were of the Eig-Roehm variety One was the revolver police say was used to kill two }x*ople last July 18 during an attempted robbery at Bostons
Plavbov Club And in Washington, IKS firearms .spt>cialisl Paul Westenber-ger picked an F:ig-imporled 22 caliber revolver from the vault that holds 215 varieties of handguns.
"This. he said, "is the gun that's killed more people in this country than any other single brand.
Scranton Woman Better Next Day... Pain Of Piles Relieved
Treatment Promptly Relieves Fain, Itching In Most Cases
Scrinton, P. Mrs. J. Straniere, Jr. of this city writes: When I had our son, I got hemorrhoids and how painful. My husband bought Preparation H for me. The next day, I was much better -just after using it once.
(Note: Doctors have proved in most cases-Preparation H* actually shrinks inflamed hemorrhoids. In case after case, the sufferer first notices prompt relief from pain, burning and itching. Then swelling is gently reduced.
Theres no other formula for the treatment of hemorrhoids like doctor-tested Preparation H. It also lubricates to make bowel movements more comfortable, soothes irritated tissues and helps prevent further infection. In ointment or suppository form.)

The race course consists of one half-mile of rugged obstacles. Drivers must be skillful as they bounce over the craggy hilts, bump around the hairpin turns and splash through the large, muddy waterholes. The race, under the supervision of the National All-Terrain Vehicle Association (NATVA), was ^
sponsored by the local lunior Chamber of Commerce to raise funds for a hospital. Surprisingly enough, none of the drivers needed hospitalization after the race.
The typical all-terrain vehicle, such as the Attex machine shown here, weighs 450 pounds, carries a payload of some 800 pounds and travels at a top speed of 35 to 40 mph. It is amphibious, at 4 mph in water, with power and direction controlled by its low-pressure, ribbed tires. It has a two-cycled, air-cooled 20 hp engine that can take abuse and is easily accessible by lifting up the two-seater housing on top. The driver steers, gears and brakes the machine by operating the two stick levers, directly In front of him. Arms forward, with hand on gas, the vehicle jumps iiito.action. Arms back and the disc brakes are applied. To turn, pull back left or right lever and It turns on a dime if necessary. It is capable of climbing a 45-degree hill.
Racing helps test the endurance and capabilities off the machine and the results help build better, safer types. Manufacturers of alMermin vehicles are currently striving to popularize their product with more outdoor sportsmen for hunting and fishing. And it Is making inroads into the general leisure family fun market.

East could have continued with another spade at this point in an attempt to promote his partners trump holding, however, he decided instead to switch to the ace of clubs and await his partners reaction. When West signaled vigorously wii the jack, East returned a club. West put up the king to drop dummys queen and continued the suit which was ruffed by Norths jack of hearts.
Because of the block in the trump suit, declarer found it somewhat ai*4cward to get off the dummy. He attempted to cash the high diamond honors, for if the suit divided evenly, he could dispose of his remaining club. On the third round however. East ruffed in with the nine of hearts. South overruffed with the ace.
The eight of clubs was trumped out by dummys king of hearts and a fourth diamond was led. East uppercut once more with the ten of trumps which forced South to overruff with the queen.
By this time declarers trump holding had been reduced to the 8-5-2 while West retained the 7-4-3 and East had the six. Souths only chance was to split out the suit and he cashed the eight of hearts and led another. West now had control of the suit and he took book and the setting tricks witti. the sevai and four of hearts.

Hawaii Testing Christmas Trees
HONOLULU (AP) - Hawaii is giving two home-grown Christmas trees a trial run tc find out whether they can stand the climate in Washington, D.C.
If so, the National Christmas Tree Committee may let Hawaii supply in 1974 the tree put in place each year in front of the White House,
The Hawaii Christmas tree is known as the Norfolk Island pine, introduced to these balmy surroundings from its native Island off Australia 80 years ago.
David Fullaway of the Hawaii Division of Forestry said the committee wanted to be sure a Norfolk Island pine could do the job in Washingtons weather.
So two 10-foot specimens have been flown to Washington for testing under the eyes of Tom Schubert, a Honolulu forester.

She quoted Mrs. Robert Morgan, honorary state chairman of the chapel committee, who said, You can worship God anywhere. But who wants to worship every day in the year in the open air chapel which is the only one there is at Dobbs l^hool?

ever senlenced to death in North Carolina, was found guHty in Edgecombe Superior Court last December of the slaying of W. PL Strum, a Rocky Mount gro-cerv store owner, on Oct. 7, 1968.
.Strum, 65, was beaten and shoi during a robbery at his store.
Bobbin dissented from the 4-2 decision, contending that North Carolina's death penalty was void a! the time of Mi.ss Hill's conviction.
He and Associate Justice Susie .Sharp held that the death jienally was void at that time because it had been ruled unconstitutional by the U. S. P'ourth Circuit Court of Appeals.
The aj)|K*als court had ruled that the slate couldnt use the sialule becau.se it contained a provision allowing a f>erson to escajH' the possibility of a death sentence by pleading guilty.
That provision was changed by the 1%9 General As.sembly.
The Supreme Courts majority opinion last week, written by As.swiale Justice Carlisle Higgins, said the evidence against Miss Hill is overwhelming. It said her attorneys in their appeal do nol discuss guilt or in-iKK-ence.'
Instead, it said, the plea is based on the defendants tender age. her lack of opportunity and (hen tragic family life.
Bobbitt and Justice Sharp said in their di.ssenling opinion that Miss Hills conviction .should be upheld but her sentence changed to life in prison.
During the trial. Rocky Mount detective Horace Winstead testified that Miss Hill admitted the slaying to him and wrote a statement admitting it.
But on the witness stand, she denied that she killed Strum and insisted that she was not even in Rocky Mount the day of the slaying.

RALEIGH (AP) - 'Hie North Carolina Board of Health feel ils occupatiohal health prograhi, particularly its study of brown lung disease among textile workers, is weakened by ils lack of clear authority to enter industrial plants. *
The board has asked the state allorney generals office for a ruling on whether health officials have the statutory right lo enter and conduct a study wherever we feel there may be an occupational hqzard.
Dr. Marlin P. Hines, director of the occupational health section. said in the past the board has gone hat in hand to the industries begging them lo let us in. He said this method has limited the boards effectiveness. |)arlicularly in its attempts lo test for byssinosis, a respiratory disease of textile workers.
(urrenlly. only Burlington Industries is voluntarily coojjera-ling with the board in this study.
Mines said this could result in an underestimation of the problem since Burlington, the industry giant, has more modern equipment than the smaller |)lanls in North Carolina.

Red Ink Dominates Movie Acfivities During Decade
By BOB THOMAS \ss(Kiatpd Press Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) - The 1960s brought a revolution to the American movie industry that still is going on.
As the decade ends the old structure of the film business is crumbling and new patterns are emerging The need for change was demonstrated last month when four major film companies reported losses of $n(),00(i.(MH).
Can new managements reverse the dcAvnward trend? That will be determined in the 1970s,
The story of the film industry in the 1960s is one of turmoil, doubt and mismanagement. The decade began with strikes by actors and writers, whose action expressed the concern of all Hollywood workers over the future of the business. The strikes, which were resolved by compromise, brought further distress to the faltering industry.
The big studio era was over. No longer could the companies afford vast stables of actors, directors and writers to create large programs of pictures. The major companies released 184 films in 1960. compared to 320 in 1951, And a third of the 1960 films were made abroad, while only a small percentage were filmed outside Hollywood a decade earlier.
By 1961 Hollywood labor had coined what it considered a dirty phrase: runaway production.
That was the term applied to the financing by American companies of filming abroad. The advantages were obvious: exotic locales; cheaper labor; tax advantages for nonresident stars; subsidies by European governments.
The year 1%2 brought the first of the many corporate changes that were to change the structure of the industry. MCA dissolved its giant talent agency and bought Universal Studio and Decca Records Together with its own television film enterprise. MCA created a corporation that embraced a wide area of the entertainment business.
The same year saw the return of Darryl F Zanuck to 20th Cen-tury-Fox During his absence as an independent film maker in Europe, the company he helped found had taken an alarming tumble. The principal reason w'as the fiasco of Cleopatra." which cost an estimated $40 million and almost wrecked 20th Century-Fox.
Zanuck shut down the studio, revitalized the company and brought it back to prosperity.
By middecade Wall Street had become enamored with leisuretime investments, and giant corporations cast their eyes at the movies. In 1966 the new con-glwnerate. Gulf and Western, bought Paramount, and a financing corporation. Transame-rica, merged with United Artists. Warner Bros, sold out to Seven Arts. Attempts to take over MGM were beaten off.
Movies were being presented in network prime time seven nights a weekf and the broadcasters began to worry al)out future supplies of films.
That was one of the reasons ABC and CBS entered^ the fea-ture>film busim^ifi The established trompanies

screamed that this was unfair ii^mpetition, but their protests went unheeded.
The film companies themselves were using television to maintain their economic stability. They sold their backlogs to the networks, and the price per film rose from $200,000 to $800,000. Most of the companies were also producing filmed series for television, and that halped absorb some of the crushing overhead at the studios.
A new development was the two-hour movie made especially for television. Universal pioneered this field with the World Premiere movies, w'hich proved as popular as those which had already been released in theaters.
More mergers came at the end of the decade. Warner Bros. Seven Arts was taken over by Kinney National Service. Joseph Levines Embassy was absorbed by Avco, Universal tried to merge with both Westing-house and Firestone, but neither marriage worked.
This year the Last Vegas operator Kirk Kerkorian bought control of MGM and appointed Jim Aubrey, former CBS program chief, as president.
As the decade ended in waves of red ink, all of the film companies were struggling to adjust to the new market.
The final death knell of the big studio was sounded when Paramount announced it was moving its headquarters out of the studio. The historic Paramount lot was up for sale. At least part of the MGM studio was expected to be sold, and the departure of 20th Century-Fox (renamed 21st Century-Fox Corp.) seemed inevitable.
It appeared that most of the companies would adopt the system of United Artists, which owned no studio but rented space when needed.
The major task facing the new film bosses was adjusting their production to a new film market. In explaining this years nine-month loss of $21,978,000. Foxs Darryl Zanuck commented;
"Without in any way making excuses for the disappdnting performance of some of our pictures, it should be observed that there has been a revolution in public taste that has resulted in the rapid obsolescence of films and story properties that, when originally initiated, represented sound business risks."
His statement expressed the quandry of ail film bosses over how to satisfy the new film tastes. The overproduced spectacles and musicals hold little appeal to todays audience, which is preponderately between 16 and 25. It is this now" generation that has made enormous hits out of such modest films as "Easy Rider," Midnight Cowboy, Goodbye, Columbus" and Alices Restaurant."
The film companies are now' going through the agonies of canceling big budget projects, cutting studio costs to a minimum and trying to find inexpensive films that will appeal to the young* generation.
