        <p>PRICE 10 CENTS</p>
        <p>By TERENCE HUNT Associated Press Writer</p>
        <p>WASHINGTON (AP) - Tax cuts of up to $12 billion a year have been urged by the congressional Joint Economic Committee to help pump up the economy and head off what the panel called possibly the worst recession in more than 35 years.</p>
        <p>At the same time the committee urged Congress to consider enacting a gasoline tax increase to help force a reduction in demand. As an example, it said a tax of 30 cents a gallon would cut gas consumption by a 8 per cent or 500,000 barrels a day during the first year.</p>
        <p>The committees tax-cut proposal Sunday was joined by other tax cut recommendations from Andrew F Brimmer, a former member of the Federal Reserve Board, and economist Walter M. Heller, chairman of</p>
        <p>the Council of E^conomic Advisers under Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson.</p>
        <p>Brimmer, now dean of the Harvard Business School, proposed a one-time 10 per cent cut in 1974 federal income taxes. Heller, appearing on NBCs Meet the Press, called for a two per cent reduction in income tax rates on earned income up to about $13,200.</p>
        <p>The congressional joint committee, warning that unemployment will hit 7.5 per cent by next summer, said a minimum of $10 billion in tax relief should be enacted immediately, aimed at low and moderate income persons.</p>
        <p>A voluntary system of wage-price guidelines also was advo-. cated by the committees Democratic majority to give President Ford authority to roll back selected wage and price</p>
        <p>hikes if he found them clearly inflationary.</p>
        <p>Both Republicans and Democrats on the committee agreed that without new policies the United States will slip into what could be the worst recession in over 35 years.</p>
        <p>The committees report argued that the only way to fight both recession and inflation is to use fiscal and monetary stimulants and intervention in some wage price cases.</p>
        <p>It proposed that any tax cuts now could be offset later by elimination of the oil depletion allowance and other tax changes.</p>
        <p>Other major committee recommendations were:</p>
        <p>A rollback of oil prices but an increase in the price of new natural gas.  ^</p>
        <p>A less stringent monetary program than the one being followed by the Federal Reserve Board.</p>
        <p>Expansion of federal public service job programs and unemployment compensation.</p>
        <p>Sen. Edward W Brooke, R-Mass., said on ABC Radios Issues and Answers" that we might have to go into guidelines, possibly into wage and price controls ...</p>
        <p>Meanwhile, E.B Speer, chairman of U.S. Steel Corp.. said on CBS Face the Nation that some national objectives need to be reviewed closely.</p>
        <p>He said safety and environmental requirements have added considerably to the price of autos. This is inflationary, Speer said, adding the 5|jpstion is can we pay the price</p>
        <p>He defended U.S. Steels recent price increases that had drawn criticism from Ford. He said the increases were non-inflationary because the prices charged by U.S. Steel in most areas are below those of their competition even after the increases.</p>

        <p>By JOE HALL Associated Press Writer</p>
        <p>WASHINGTON (AP) -Faced with a slipping economy and a rising jobless rate. Congress ha^ sent President Ford two bills that will give U.S. workers the broadest Lmem-ployment compensation protection on record.</p>
        <p>Ford has not yet signed the H^easures but is considered certain to do so.</p>
        <p>REFLECTOR</p>
        <p>One of the bills will make the 80 million employes covered by regular unemployment compensation eligible for at least 52 weeks of benefits.</p>
        <p>The other bill will qualify some 12 million workers for jobless payments for the first time.</p>
        <p>Sponsors said the bills were particularly important with unemployment now at 6.5 and</p>
        <p>woTunc</p>
        <p>752-1336</p>
        <p>Hotline gets things done for you. Call 752-1336 and tell your problem or your sound-off or mail it to Hotline. The Daily ReHector, Box 1967, Greenville, N.C. 27834.</p>
        <p>Because of the large numbers received. Hotline can answer and piublish only those items considered most pertinent to our readers. Names must be given, but only initials will be used. Transcribing is done once a day, but the phone service is available 24 hoLU^ a day.</p>
        <p>A HOTLINE APPEAL</p>
        <p>HOUSEHOLD GOODS NEEDED Although Hotline did not turn upa house for the Linwood Earl Hardy family to rent, written up in the Dec. 12 column, several churches and individuals offered some household items after having-the item.</p>
        <p>The Hardy s, whose home near Winterville burned Dec. 10, have found another house near Greenville Parts and Metals, where Mr. Hardy works. There are nine children. Carol Proctor, a social worker seeking to help the family, said she still would like to appeal for donations of bed linens, a refrigerator, and other household goods for the family. One may call Ms. Proctor at 752-3819.</p>
        <p>DOUBLE TAXATION?</p>
        <p>The bank charged my checking account with an intangibles tax this month. Pd like to know what the tax is for and what the rate of charge is. Isnt this money being toxed twice, since I paid income tax before I deposited it? W.P.</p>
        <p>Intangible tax is placed on stocks, bonds, certificates of deposit and all bank accounts at the rate of 25 cents on every $100. The money is collected by the state, but goes back to the county government.</p>
        <p>The banks deducting the tax from your checking accounts prevents your having to file a special intangibles return. Emily Mobley of Wachovia Bank said balances of each p*sons account or accounts are averaged the 15th day of February, May, August, and November to determine the amount to be paid,, with no less than 30 cents being paid. C3iaritable organizations, churches, and schools are not charged.</p>
        <p>As for the double taxation question, E. R. Carraway of the local office of the N. C. Department of Revenue said this is a separate and distinct tax, just like sales tax or property. We agree with you that this is difficult to understand, but the only way to avoid it is to ke^ your money in a pillowca'se, which is not too wise either.</p>
        <p>expected to climb to 7.5 per cent or higher next year. Six million Americans now are jobless.</p>
        <p>TTie provisions on workers now ineligible for unemployment compensation will allow them 26 weeks of benefit payments, the basic amoimt now available under the regular jobless aid program.</p>
        <p>The payments can be made as long as the national unemployment rate exceeds 6 per cent, which is expected to be the case throughout 1975.</p>
        <p>The major groups covenM try this new program will be farm workers, domestics, and employes of state and local governments.</p>
        <p>They can apply to the sute office which handles regular unemployment compensation payments.</p>
        <p>Applicants will have to meet the sUndards imposed by the particular sute for the regular payments. These generally include a minimum amount of time spent in the occupation and a minimum amount of wages earned in that job.</p>
        <p>Sponsors of the new program estimate that at least 2 million of the newly eligible 12 million workers will be unemployed some time in 1975.</p>
        <p>The bill providing additional benefits under the regular program will make available 13 weeks of emergency payments to add to the 39 weeks already being paid most out-of-work persons.</p>
        <p>The new 13 weeks of emergency benefits are expected to be drawn by an average of 1.3 million persons each week throughout the next year.</p>
        <p>They will be available as long as the national unemployment rate for insured workers is 4 per cent. This is equivalent to a 6 per cent rate for all workers.</p>
        <p>The present basic unemployment insurance program provides 26 weeks of benefits in most sutes. In addition, 13 weeks of extended benefits recently have been available, Uking the toUl up to 39. The new bill brings the toUl to 52 weeks.</p>
        <p>The original 13-week extension was triggered if the national unemployment rate is 4.5 per cent for insured workers. The bill just sent to the President would lower this trigger to 4 per cent, the same as for the new emergency 13 weeks of paymenU.</p>
        <p>Pres. Ford Proves A Fallible Skier</p>
        <p>By FRANK CORMIER Associated Press Writer VAIL, Colo. (AP)  President Ford has shown himself to be an enthusiastic if fallible skier but insists his holiday stay in the Colorado Rockies is not a vacation.</p>
        <p>Arriving at this wintry resort village Sunday, Ford told newsmen he would divide his time between work and skiing, with perhaps more work than skiing. He said he had about 150 bills to sign and a few other matters to work on.</p>
        <p>The President said, however, he would not make major decisions on energy and economic policies until returning to Washington about Jan. 2.</p>
        <p>Skiing proved a big lure for Ford on his first day here. Within two houni of mrHving with his wife Betty, the chief executive was on the slopes in new and colorful ski garb.</p>
        <p>Instructor Dennis C. Hoeger, who accompanied Ford on a 10-</p>
        <p>minule^ run down Vail Mountain, acknowledged the President sat down along the way.</p>
        <p>It was blowing on top and I think he was more disoriented than anything, said Hoeger.</p>
        <p>The instructor said he felt Ford skied as well Sunday as</p>

        <p>LIFE AT THE WHITE HOUSE-Susan Ford, 17, smiles as she talks about her life at the White House during a recent interview. (AP Wirephoto)</p>
        <p>By ANN BLACKMAN Associated Press Writer</p>
        <p>WASHINGTON (AP) - Her life in the White House wont be sheltered, says Susan Ford Im not the sheltered type person.</p>
        <p>She delights in sneaking out of the White House Lmnoticed for an evening on the town. She giggles when the gold wedding band on her left ring finger is mistaken for her own  Its my grandmothers  she says. And she confesses that her mother reprimands her for putting her feet up on her fathers Oval Office desk.</p>
        <p>In an interview at the White House, Susan Elizabeth Ford discussed her distaste for politicsand what its like to be the Presidents only daughter.</p>
        <p>She teases her father about being President, she said, Bowing down to him, giving him the treatment. And she still babysits occasionally, but now the Secret Service goes along.</p>
        <p>Like almost every family in America, the Fords have been affected by the recession, Susan said. Weve cut down on a lot of things, like shopping ... And its not as though we have steak and lamb chops and pork chops every night. We eat chicken pot pie and spaghetti and all that good stuff. We had spaghetti last week, and we love it. Im not that heavy an eater. We just eat little bits anjrway.</p>
        <p>Susan, at 17, is a tall, blueeyed, broad-shouldered young woman who is seen more often in dungarees than an evening gown. And she obviously doesnt want the White House to change her.</p>
        <p>Sure, Im the Presidents daughter, she said with a grin. But to me, big deal. It makes no difference to me. Special attention really bugs me. We went to see the Harlem Globe Trotters Friday night and didnt tell anyone because we didnt want someone to say, Now you sit here.</p>
        <p>Although she said she would never smoke marijuana, she doesnt care if her friends do and wouldnt expect them to stop if she walked in the room.</p>
        <p>If thats what they want to do, let them do it, Susan said. Big deal. Thats them, not me.</p>
        <p>If they want to smoke grass and drink all they want, go ahead.</p>
        <p>About her feelings on abortion, she said, In the right situation, its necessary. I feel if someone has an abortion, theyre killing a child ... I dont think I could handle it emotionally because I love children too much.</p>
        <p>Susan said she receives a weekly allowance of about $7 It all depends on how good I am ... and how much money Daddy has in his pocket. If he doesnt have change for a $20 bill, I get $20 He says, Bring (Coatinued on page 10)</p>
        <p>I Saved From Fire</p>
        <p>PACTOLUSA 70-year-old woman received first and second degree burns to her feet and one arm and suffered smoke inhalation before she was pulled from her burning bedroom by a passing Washington, N.C. fireman early Sunday morning.</p>
        <p>Pitt County P'ire Marshall Bobby Joyner said the fire at the home of Rachael Danielsabout 100 yards from the Pactolus Fire Departmentwas reported at 6:55 a.m. He noted that the fire, in the bedroom of the home, was quickly extinguished.</p>
        <p>According to Joyner, the passing fireman discovered the fire and pulled the woman from the burning room, before notifying the fire department The firemans wife, a nurse, administered first aid to the victim, Joyner said, until the Greenville Rescue Unit arrived and took her to Pitt Memorial Hospital where she was reported in fair condition this morning.</p>
        <p>Joyner said the fire originated around the bed and caused an estimated$200 damage to the bed and bed room.</p>
        <p>on his last Vail outing as vice president last Christmas season. For Ford it was the first break from official duties since he became President nearly five months ago and he said he didnt think the American people would begrudge him the relaxation.</p>
        <p>I think the fact that I am working (here) about half the time, that I have worked, I think, seven days a week, 10 to 12 hours a day. I think they understand it, he tol reporters.</p>
        <p>Mrs. Ford, recovering from surgery for breast cancer, will not join her husband for downhill skiing but said she hoped to do some cross-country skiing. Recent heavy snows have discouraged the cross&amp;lt;ountry sport by increasing the danger of avalanches away from developed runs.</p>
        <p>The family had a steak dinner in the evening. With the President and Mrs. Ford were sons Michael, 24, Jack, 22, and Steve, 18, daughter Susan, 17, and Michaels wife, Gayle.</p>
        <p>Although several dozen vaca-tioners turned out to watch Ford board a chair lift Sunday, ili; Vails quiet resort atmosphere &amp;lt;: was not disturbed by the presence of the nations first skiing president. No runs were closed for Fords exclusive use and Secret Service agents were unobstrusive.</p>
        <p>SECRET VISIT?</p>
        <p>BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP)  Marshal Andrei Grechko, the Soviet defense minister, is paying a secret visit to Cairo to discuss Eqyptian arms needs, the leftist Beirut newspaper as Safir reported today.</p>
        <p>Old South Ayden School Facility Is Condemned</p>
        <p>AYDENThe Town of Ayden has condemned the Old South Ayden School facility and has given the Pitt County Board of Education until Feb. 1 to do something about the building.</p>
        <p>A ccording to William R. Ford, Ayden building inspector, the building was condemned after a thorough inspection of the property was made. The Town of Ayden has requested that the Pitt County Board of Education submit a plan by Feb. 1 on the final disposition of the building.</p>
        <p>Some of the problems found on</p>
        <p>the school site by Ford include : broken windows with jagged pieces of glass remaining; boiler room window out resulting in a 15 to 20 foot fall if someone climbed in; walls on the rear portion of the building are partially standing thus creating a hazard to young children; some electrical wires in the gym area pulled out and exposed (electricity has been discontinued in the school); hallway of school is piled with wooden platforms which is a fire hazard</p>
        <p>Ford said the conditions found</p>
        <p>on the site were unsafe, hazardous and dangerous to life, health and other property in the surrounding area.</p>
        <p>Although the facility has not been used as a school since consolidation of the county schools about four years ago, the property is currently being leased by the Winslow-Atkins firm until May, 1975, at a rental fee of $250 per month. Rent received on the site is being given to Ayden Grammar School and Ayden ElemenUry School to help finance various programs at the schools.</p>

        <p>RALEIGH (AP)Electricity led the pack as North Carolinians paid an average of 21.3 per cent more for fuel and utilities in October than for October 1973, the state Department of Administration reported.</p>

        <p>The sharpest increase was 15.8 per cent in the six months</p>
        <p>between April and October in electricity costs. Natural gas costs went up 12.7 per cent and fuel oil went up 11.8 per cent in the same period</p>

        <p>Public transportation was 9.1 per cent more expensive and hotel and motel rates went up about 2 per cent Higher home ownership costs were blamed on high interest rates for mortgages because of a tight money market</p>

        <p>We Have Poor Basis For Doubt</p>
        <p>TAKES CO-ORDINATED EFFORT!</p>
        <p>As the Christmas of 1974 approaches that is some despondancy in our nation about the state of the economy.</p>
        <p>Unemployment is as high as it has been in years with layoffs hitting many industries. We are worried about the price of oil which has been raised by oil producing nations to an oppressive level. Inflation has wracked our nation, straining the budgets of businesses, governments, and families.</p>
        <p>There are some who are concerned that our standard of living is simply too high. That we cannot goon using natural resources and energy and as we presently do without destroying our ecolc^y and causing unbearable economic problems.</p>
        <p>With all that, however, there is no reason that we should not feel the future is bright for our country.</p>
        <p>We are a vast land with^onsiderable resources, and the greatest resource we have is our people. In the years past when there were more jobs than people to fill them there were complaints about productivity and pride in workmanship. Today, though, we hear that workers are more conscientious than for many years. Industries and business, at the same, time are cutting out the fat</p>
        <p>and learning how to sell again as surpluses of their products mount up.</p>
        <p>Consumers are learning to shop around. They are learning that you dont really have to have so much sugar, for instance, at todays high prices and you can bet that this will tend to bring the price down.</p>
        <p>After years of the nations attention being focused on Vietnam and then Watergate, we are at last turning our energies to our own economic problems, and that may be the best thing we have done for a long time.</p>
        <p>Every problem we have can be solved, if we give it enough attention. The energy problem is being attached through research and conservation. We have already done much on pollution control and there is no reason for these efforts to let up.</p>
        <p>There are those who say that discussing our economic problems is bad; that if we ignore the problems they will just go away. Our answer is they wont go away if we arent aware of them. Because we are aware, everyonefrom the individual through the highest governmentis looking for ways to cope with the dual problems of inflation and recession. We are going to be a better nation because of it.</p>
        <p>THIS AFTERNOON</p>
        <p>Reform A Tedious Process</p>
        <p>By BILL NOBLITT</p>
        <p>RALEIGH Legislative reform is a weighty topic, even for legislators, but there is a growing mood in the General Assembly of NdMh Carolina to hoist that lawmaking body into a position of prominence coequal with the administrative branch of government, just as the authors of the Constitution intended.</p>
        <p>As it is, the philosophy that the General Assembly doesnt run this agency" is a common one among state governmental employees.</p>
        <p>In reality, members of the assembly are at the mercy of fulltime bureaucrats and lobbyists who have ail day to think up ways to gain legislative blessing from lawmakers in town only a short time, who have jobs and families back home, and are laboring under a diversity and complexity of activities, committee meetings, floor actions, to the degree that they seldom have time to dig into a complex situation.</p>
        <p>Changes Shaping Two mmjor reform ttepo</p>
        <p>are shaping up in the committee rooms of the General Assembly, however, which in the long run would make</p>
        <p>profound changes in the ralationship between the Legislature and state agencies.</p>
        <p>Legislators are becoming increasingly aware of the value of full-time staff assistance, and how to use that service.</p>
        <p>Discussion is underway on steps to merge thp^ separate F'inance and Appropriations committees into one Budget Committee.</p>
        <p>Heretofore, staff assistance to the General Assembly has been limited in numbers of people, and limited by the lack of expertise among lawmakers in using staff.</p>
        <p>Members of the assembly, faced with the growing complexity and size of government and operating . under the crush of committee assignments, have generally been dependent on facts and figures provided by state agenciesan obviously suspect source when it comes to making a determination vital to the program carried out by that agency itself.</p>
        <p>This year, the Legislative Services Commission will provide 14 ateff people  half of them attorneys  to work with particular committees. The number is double that of two years ago.</p>
        <p>And in the Fiscal Research Division, another 13 economic experts are on board to work with the Finance and Appropriations functions.</p>
        <p>Still, effectiveness is limited by the small numbers of people and the propensity of bureaucrats to keep things under wraps.</p>
        <p>Revenue F'igures Take the budget revenue estimates, for example. The governor draws information through the Budget Office from tax research people and says what income figure will be used as the base for the budget.</p>
        <p>Over a 10-year span, that figure has been off base (underestimated) a total of $502.8 million. The governors have wanted it that way: they want some "un-reported" millions for pet projects But members of the General Assembly think they should have access to better figures in making their decisions.</p>
        <p>A proposal is now being drawn up by the legislative staff leaders to show how much people It would take, and how much It would cost, to provide effective staff information and orogram</p>
        <p>followup throughout state government.</p>
        <p>Meanwhile, a number of legislative leaders, including at least two chairmen of either finance or appropriations committees, are discussing with the speaker of the house and the lieutenant governor the idea of merging the Finance and the Appropriations committees.</p>
        <p>support, gathering.</p>
        <p>Currently half of the membership in each chamber serves on one or the other of the money committees. But, with other committee duties, most of the detail work is left to so-called "Super subcommittees.</p>
        <p>The idea is to pull together into a Budget Committee the now separate functions of approving spending programs, and approving the means of raising the money, so that a legislator on the new committee would have a grasp of the whole process Traditionally, such a committee might be labeled the Ways and Means Committee, but as one legislator put it, that would quickly be labeled the Wilbur committee, so he would suggest the title Budget Committee instead.</p>
        <p>The INSIDE REPORT</p>
        <p>Iran Coulcd Become Enemy</p>
        <p>By ROW1.AND EVANS and ROBERT NOVAK W ASHINGTON-The ominous and surprisingly abrupt turn toward a harder pro-Arab line against Israel by the Shah of Iran, a Mideast power with oil riches and U.S.-supplied arms. is causing high-level consternation inside President Fords national security apparatus Until now the leader of the Mideast's most populous and powerful country had dealt with Israel on special, almost intimate terms But the Shahs latest pronouncement last weekend warned that the special relationship may be coming to an end This unwanted new</p>
        <p>byproduct of the continuing Arab-Israeli deadlock means that Iran, a virtual ally of the West in the 1973 oil crisis, could be its enemy in a new embargo in 1975. What adds to nervousness in Washington is Irans new military prowess resulting from the Shahs heavy use of oil money to buy American arms.</p>
        <p>There are only two ways, the Shah told the Middle East Economic Survey, published in Beirut. Either Israel accepts the implementation of the United Nations! resolutions or there is no alternative to war. Of course, this time it will be our war.</p>

        <p>unusually complete transcript was rushed to high officials here via official cable from Beirut. While devoid of overtly nasty anti-Israeli rhetoric, it raises serious alarms considering the multi-billion-dollar American arms sales to Teheran and Washingtons policy of depending on Iran for Western defense of the oil-rich Persian Gulf and northern approaches to the Soviet Union.</p>
        <p>For example, the interview made a major point of the Shahs visit to Cairo next month, his first since he was crown prince in distant pre-Nasser days. I think highly of what President Sadat has done for the Arab cause in general and the Palestinian cause in particular, he said. My forthcoming visit is an expression of this esteem.</p>
        <p>He credited President Anwar Sadat with working toward a peaceful settlement with Israel, but added that "regrettably the Israelis have not responded to him.</p>
        <p>He then put the blame squarely on the Americans for failing to press Israel to withdraw from occupied Arab territories, which would bring the peace the Americans say they want. Faced with sputtering border warfare against the militant Arab state of Iraq and a chilly, arms-length relationship with Saudi Arabis, the Shah is clearly intent on shoring up the position of IranMoslem but non-Arabin the Arab world. Experts here view this as a dangerous new element in hardening cohesiveness of the Moslem world on the Israeli issue What is ominous about the Shahs words at this critical juncture in the Arab-Israeli deadlock is their hint of drastic change in oil policy, toward both Israel and the West, if war breaks out again In October 1973, when Egypt and Syria attacked Israel to recover lands seized in th^l967 war, Iran refused (Coatiaued m page 8)</p>

        <p>OBSTACLES TO PRAYER</p>
        <p>Someone has said that all prayer is trying to character, by which it is meant that it is not always easy for even the most godly to pray in wholehearted fashion. Doubt, discouragement, melancholy. even hostility, often rise up as obstacles to communication writh God.</p>
        <p>Jesus was undoubtedly aware of these barriers, and told his disciples two stories to illustrate bow persistence can overcome them. One was the story of a man who wanted to borrow a loaf of bread and knocked so per</p>
        <p>sistently on the door of a neighbor that the neighbor finally had to accede to the request. The other was the story of a poor widow whose constant importunities eventually forced an indifferent judge to give her the rights she was entitled to.</p>
        <p>Now, concluded Jesus, if persistence worked in ^ case of the people wtio do not want to give, how much more effective will this persistence be m the case of the Heavenly Father who is evea more anxious to give than we are to receive.</p>

        <p>Foot-ln-AAouth Awards</p>
        <p>WASHINGTON-As we close the year of 1974 we would like to honor some of the people who made such a great contribution to foot-in-mouth disease. Unfortunately most of them are nameless, but they know who they are and thats what counts.</p>
        <p>Here are some of the awards.</p>
        <p>To the lawyer who told Richard Nixon in August, Even if you reveal what was on the June 23 tape, it still isnt an impeachable offense.</p>
        <p>And to the political adviser</p>
        <p>who said to President Ford, The best way to bring the country together is to pardon Nixon.</p>
        <p>And the aide who said to Secretary of the Treasury William Simon, Have you thought of calling the Shah of Iran a nut?</p>
        <p>As well as the vice-president of sales at the Chrysler Corp. who told the board last January, Gen-* tlemen, I can state without equivocation that 1974 will be the best year in our history. And the man who said to economic adviser Alan</p>
        <p>Other Editors Say Unjustified Ban</p>
        <p>(Rocky Mount Telegram)</p>
        <p>Consumers may have noted that the price of sugar has come down a notch and may drop further, but it will be a long time before the grocery-shelf price is anywhere near what a housewife would call reasonable.</p>
        <p>Unfortunately, in the meantime Americans are denied the use of an excellent, inexpensive, calwie-free substitute which most other countries can turn to for relief from the sugar shortage.</p>
        <p>The substitute is cyclamate which was widely used in soft drinks and diet products until the Food and Drug Administration suddenly banned it five years ago.</p>
        <p>And it becomes increasingly clear that the reason we are being denied the use of it is because the FDA wont admit its ban on cyclamate was a gross mistake in the first place.</p>
        <p>The ban was imposed because bladder cancer showed up in a few rats that had been fed a prolonged diet of cyclamate in combination with other ingredients and in proportions far in excess of what any human would ever take in.</p>
        <p>There was no case of human cancer attributable to cyclamate, and there hasnt been since.</p>
        <p>In fact, later and more exhaustive tests have shown no relation whatsoever between cyclamate and canceror any other unhealthy condition.</p>
        <p>Why, thea has the ban on cyclamate not been lifted?</p>
        <p>Naturally, nobody likes to admit a mistake, especially a mistake that choked off a billion-dollars-a-year industry and left canners, processors and soft drink bottlers with well over a million dollars worth of suddenly-unusable cyclamates on their hands.</p>
        <p>To be sure, the Food and Drug Administration has a responsibility to be cautious about anything that affects the nations health, whether it would relieve a sugar shortage or not</p>
        <p>But unless the FDA can show convincing evidence that cyclamate is in fact harmful-when more than a dozen rigid tests have shown that its notit must allow the product back on the mark^.</p>
        <p>Otherwise it isnt protecting the nations healthor pocket-bookbut simply trying to protect its own skia</p>
        <p>Fight To Be Avoided</p>
        <p>Greenspan, As long as youre talking about suffering, would you put in a plug for the brokers?</p>
        <p>We mustnt ignore the person who said to Rep. Wilbur Mills (D-Ark.) one early Saturday morning, Lets have one more for the road.</p>
        <p>Or the aide of Gen. George S. Brown who told him on a plane going down to Duke University, I just read an article where the Jews own all the banks and newspapers in America.</p>
        <p>And then there was the lawyer at AT&amp;amp;T who told top executives, The government wouldnt dare file an antitrust suit against the telephone company.</p>
        <p>Not to mention the person who advised Nelson Rockefeller, If the com-mittee asks you about the Arthur Goldberg book, you dont know anything about it.</p>
        <p>Or the aide who then said to Rockefeller, If they press you on it. say your brother Laurance goofed.</p>
        <p>As long as were giving out awards, why not one to the Administration genius who said, Mr. President, the only way to fight inflation is for you to go on television wearing a WIN button.</p>
        <p>What about the agriculture economist who wrote in his report, We should have a bumper sugar crop this year.</p>
        <p>And the friend of Richard Burton who told him in a pub, Have you ever thought of telling the world what you really think of Winston Churchill?</p>
        <p>Or the Kremlin man who told Brezhnev, Let Solzhenitsyn leave the country. It will shut him up. And the Greek general who said, Now is the time to overthrow Makarios on Cyprus, while the Turks are weak.</p>

        <p>By ROBERT B. CULLEN Associated Press W'riter</p>
        <p>RALEIGH (AP)  Jane Patterson, the astute chairman of the Guilford County Democratic party, thinks it is silly for the Democrats to fight over who should be state chairman.</p>
        <p>Ms. Patterson feels that the Democrats have a primary responsibility to help formulate a program to deal with the states economic problems.</p>
        <p>Phil (Jodwin, the former state Senator from Gatesville, doesnt agree with Jane Patterson on too many issues, but ho does on the question of a state chairman.</p>
        <p>Godwin doesnt want to see a fight, either.</p>
        <p>For reasons like those. New Bern attorney James Sugg will probably be reelected when the party executive committee meets on Jan. 4.</p>
        <p>No one, thus far, has stepped forward to oppose him. although at one time, it appeared likely that just about anyone would attract votes in a race against Sugg.</p>
        <p>His capability as state chairman was perhaps best exemplified last summer when he called a news conference to promote a Democratic fund raising telethon. People should contribute to the Democrats, he said, to further the cause of open, honest government and fiscal integrity.</p>
        <p>The first question asked was how much money the Democrats had in their state treasury. With a brilliant display of open, honest fiscal integrity, he refused to answer.</p>
        <p>Suggs ability to annoy people is not limited to reporters. When he announced his intention to seek reelection, he did so by letter. Copies were given to the news media before many Democratic leaders, like Lt. Gov. James Hunt, were aware the letter had been written..</p>
        <p>That is a gaffe of the first order in political protocol. It is probably what inspired Sen -elect Robert Morgan to issue -his statement critical of Sugg.</p>
        <p>At the time Morgan made his statement, there was still a chance that his campaign manager, Charles B. Winberry. would run for the job. During the campaign, it was no secret that Morgans staff felt that Winberry could do a much better job.</p>
        <p>But Winberry decided that he did not have the time or independent wealth to permit him to do the job as it ought to be done. He bowed out, leaving many Democrats wondering why Morgan had made his statement in the first place.</p>
        <p>With Morgans man out of the running. Lt. Gov. Jim Hunt and Atty. Gen. Rufus Edmisten were loathe to get involved for fear they would make enemies for 1976.</p>
        <p>Hunt confined himself to writing Sugg a letter outlining his views of what a chairman ought to do.</p>
        <p>That left the issue up to people like Ms. Patterson and Sen. Godwin, Ckniwin and other legislators are grateful to Sugg for not doing anything to stop them for wresting party control from the McGoverniteS after the 1972 elections.</p>
        <p>Ms. Patterson doesnt often agree with Sugg, but she has no stomach for a fight at this time.</p>
        <p>Which means that the Democrats will head into the 1975 campaign with party headquarters in the same shape it has</p>

        <p>Turnabout When News Worst</p>
        <p>By JOHN CUNMFF .\P Business .Analyst NEW YORK (AP)'- The term depression" might not apply to the economy as whole, but it certainly is descriptive of individual industries, such as autos, housing, stocks and the savings and loan, or thrift, industry.</p>
        <p>The sharply worsening sales and employment situation makes autos the critical industry at the moment with more than a quarter-million workers idled and prospects growing for more layoffs early in 1975.</p>
        <p>Automotive analysts vary in their estimates, but it is safe to say the idleness of one automotive worker endangers the jobs of 2 to 3 workers in related industries, spreading the ailment can-cerously.</p>
        <p>The question automotive</p>
        <p>men remain puzzled about is when recovery can be expected Their experience has been that one forecast after another was too optimistic.</p>
        <p>Albert Sindlinger, the pollster and an authority on the automotive market insists that even now production might be too high. Opinions vary, however, and estimates of 1975 sales range from 6.3 million to 9 million units, compared with about 9.25 million this year.</p>
        <p>Sindlinger is at the low end, between 6.4 million and 6.8 million units, imports included</p>
        <p>Our surveys show that more than 7 million cars, or one-third of all those sold during the past year, were for hedging purposes. People bought in advance to beat nsing prices.</p>
        <p>As a result, he says, new car sales will be hurt well into</p>
        <p>1976.</p>
        <p>The thrift industry offers a contrast; already it is moving up out of the depression into which it was pitched by high interest rates. Like the tide, money is flowing back into its savings accounts.</p>
        <p>So long as interest rates continue to fall, savings and loans and mutual savings banks should do well. But. if interest rates rise again, it would be bad news, because thrifts are limited in the rate of interest they can pay.</p>
        <p>If the thrifts continue to recover from their depression  and the consensus of opinion seems to favor a continuation of the trend  it will mean good news for the housing industry, which went into a nosedive this year.</p>
        <p>Housing executives and govemineik housing officials arent convinced that lower</p>
        <p>interest rates will turn the depression into a recovery But that has almost always been the turn of events in years past.</p>
        <p>Some stock market analysts, in fact, are suggesting that some housing stocks and related building products stocks might be worth considering for investing</p>
        <p>Overall, however, the stock markets prospects appear not to be very promising so long as profits are squeezed and industries related to autos fight to maintain their lives.</p>
        <p>Wise investors never forgeL however, that the market isnt so much a reflection of current events as future events. And they have observed also that the turn comes somewhere in the darkness when the news is grimest</p>

        <p>Orphans Of Bangladesh Famine Face Cold Winter</p>
        <p>Christmas Among The Elderly Is Matter Of Passing Time In Home</p>
        <p>REACHING FOR BREAD-Children at a center in the Kurigram district in northern Bangladesh reach for bread in the hand of a relief worker. Kurigram is</p>
        <p>By MYRON L. RKLKIND Associated Press Writer</p>
        <p>ULIPUR. Bangladesh (AP)  The children squat shivering m the mornthg cold, many wearing only a name tag.</p>
        <p>Theres Ganesh, 7; Jaminah, 5; Nur Jahan, 5; Luki, 4 And theres one little girl, about 2. sitting all alone, with flies crawling over her naked, limp body Her tag is blank No one knows her name.</p>
        <p>Throughout Bangladeshs remote Kurigram subdivision, there are at least 2,000 more children like them,</p>
        <p>They are "ezeems, Bengali for orphans.</p>
        <p>Some lost their mothers and fathers in the severe famine that ravaged northern Bangladesh this autumn after floods washed away their homes and their crops Others were abandoned by parents who could no longer care for them.</p>
        <p>They were found along road sides in towns, at railway stations and in rice fields in the villages In past years when other natural calamities struck the country, the children were allowed to die.</p>
        <p>This year, many of them are being saved.</p>
        <p>In Ulipur and seven other towns of Kurigram subdivision, special government centers have been opened to care for the orphaned and the abandoned. to provide them with high-protein food flown in by international relief agencies.</p>
        <p>"The children were brought here more dead than alive." said one official. Now look at them.</p>
        <p>Evons-Novak..</p>
        <p>(Continued from page 4) to go along with the embargo by Arab oil states imposing a blockade Indeed, Iranian oil helped fuel Israel-s successful counterattacks which drove both Egypt and Syria even deeper into their own territories.</p>
        <p>His words that "this time it will be our war" hint that Iran would join its oil-producing Moslem neighbors and deny oil to Israel and perhaps the entire Western world in the next war</p>
        <p>The reference to "our war," some specialists hold, could mean that the Shah simply was warning that the next outbreak of Arab-Israeli hostilities will quickly lead to a third world war which no nation could escape However, the majority view-inside 4he Ford administration takes a more realistic view - the Shah was using his interview with the Arabic language publication to warn Israel and Washington, while gaining credit writh his Arab neighbors</p>
        <p>We support the Arab view, he said, "because the Arabs became a victim of foreign occupation." To U.S. policymakers, this change of directioa is clear warning to the U.S. that time is running out in the Middle East.</p>
        <p>Outside, many were doing physical exercises. Their big brown eyes, for which Bengalis are known, sparked in the sunlight.</p>
        <p>In another section of the center. nursing attendants rubbed in mustard oil to soothe the dried skin of infants whose bodies were slowly regaining strength after deteriorating to virtual skeletons.</p>
        <p>The special care centers are called Chhinna Mukul," or Fallen Buds, because that is what the children inside are considered.</p>
        <p>A poster on the wall of one of the centers explains the philosophy.</p>
        <p>"Before these flowers could blossom, the buds had fallen down. Now we want to give them life so they can blossom after all</p>
        <p>When the centers were opened in late October, they had more than 4,000 children. Since then, about half have been returned to their homes now that their parents can feed them following the start of the rice harvesting season.</p>
        <p>But the remaining 2,000 face an uncertain future. They have no where to go And as winter sets in. many have no clothes to wear, no blankets to protect them at night.</p>

        <p>flooding</p>
        <p>. By DOLORES BARCLAY Associated Press Writer</p>
        <p>NEW YORK (AP) - Florence Brandon picked up a small, slender paint brush, dipped it in white paste and began sticking small squares of bright-colored fabric on a cardboard star. When finished, it would adorn a Christmas tree^ at the De Witt Nursing Home.</p>
        <p>She and fellow De Witt residents Ralph Rauschkolb and Ella Sorrell are among the thousands of senior citizens in the country who will be spending the holidays at such homes.</p>
        <p>I hope to keep as happy as I am, and I try to be happy with everybody else. Its the only thing left for me to do now, the 84-year-old Mrs. Brandon said from her wheelchair where shes been since a massive stroke.</p>
        <p>I dont do this usually. Im only doing it to pass the time away, she said, studying the color combinations formed on her star. Then she looked up.</p>
        <p>"I usually do painting and rug-I making. Ive got some of my paintings here  Ill show you.</p>
        <p>Mrs. Brandon and her husband, now dead, came to this country 40 years ago from London to follow the acting career of their son. Mrs. Brandon has never returned to England, where she was a teacher.</p>
        <p>She is spending Christmas with her friends at the nursing home. Friends such as 88-year-old Ralph Rauschkolb, who likes to take her to bingo games.</p>
        <p>Yes, I take Florence around. Its the only wfy, you know. We have to help each ^r out, Rauschkolb said, as he sat by the newly decorated Christmas tree.</p>

        <p>High Score For ECU Debaters</p>
        <p>The East Carolina University Debate Team scored high at the H.L. Mencken Debate Tournament in Baltimore, Md. last weekend.</p>
        <p>Annette Wysocki and Ellen Schrader represented ECU at the tournament, which was sponsored by the Baltimore Sunpapers and held on the campus of Towson State College.</p>
        <p>The ECU debaters defeated teams from William and Mary and the Naval Academy on their way to a 4-2 won-lost record. With a total of 132 speaker points. Miss Wysocki captured the sixth place speakers award She is a sophomore at ECU and a resident of Raleigh. Miss Schrader, a freshman, is from Westchester, Pa.</p>
        <p>couldnt stand it. Theyre so good to us, 80 good, he said, a small smile denting his almost smooth face.</p>
        <p>His wife died nine years ago, he said. I figured out I couldnt keep house anymore. I had to work and cook and clean up for myself, he said. So Rauschkolb entered De Witt.</p>
        <p>His three children will spend Christmas outside of New York, he said. His daughter and her husband plan to visit relatives in Argentina, and his two sons will be in Ossining, N.Y., and Virginia.</p>
        <p>I have the most beautiful, wonderful children anyone can have, he said. I want nothing for myself for Christmas. I have it all.</p>
        <p>Rauschkolb, a retired master plumber, has 12 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.</p>
        <p>Ella Sorrell, 83, will share the Christmas holiday with Mrs. Brandon, Rauschkolb and 496 other residents of the home.</p>
        <p>Mrs. Sorrell lost the use of her right hand after suffering a stroke. Now she has learned to do her intricate needlepoint designs with her left hand.</p>
        <p>Im just learning to talk again, she said. Im so thankful that I can speak because a lot of people who had strokes cant talk.</p>
        <p>Mrs. Sorrell came to New York from Atlanta, Ga., in</p>
        <p>1935. Her husband and their daughter are both dead. My Christmas wish is for health and happiness, she said from a wheel chair, her right foot encased in a heavy metal brace.</p>

        <p>ZURICH, Switzerland (AP)  The price of gold hit a new record high on the Zurich bullion market today in the wake of Frances announcement that it planned to revalue its gold reserve.</p>
        <p> Gold opened at 1188.25, then by mid-day rose to a middle rate of $192.25 an ounce, slightly above the previous record of $192 on Nov. 18.</p>
        <p>However, the volume of trading was relatively small, one dealer reported. He said the price hike appeared to be due to buying by private speculators.</p>
        <p>The U.S. dollar, which usually weakens slightly when the price of gold rises, stayed firm after a weak opening at 2.575 Swiss francs, down from 2.6 rancs Friday.</p>
        <p>In London, also, the price of gold was fixed at a record $192.25 an ounce, a leap of $4.75 above Fridays price. The fixing is the mornings opening price agreed on by the five leading bullion dealers.</p>
        <p>The previous high in London was $190.50 on Nov. 18.</p>
        <p>London dealers attributed the rise to anticipation that the price will go even higher after Jan. 1, when it will be legal for Americans to buy gold for the first time in 40 years.</p>
        <p>Some dealers also noted that press comments on gold had been favorable over the weekend, and they said this spurred a scramble to buy before the price goes even higher. Some brokers have predicted gold will be worth $200 to $300 an ounce soon.</p>

        <p>Farmville Central Has Had Ups And Downs During Early Season</p>
        <p>By CHIP LAMBETH Reflector Sports Writer FARMVILLE-Farmville Centrals varsity basketball team has benen having an up and down year. In the last week before the holidays the Jaguars were up but how long they can stay up is a question.</p>
        <p>Before the last week of school, the Jaguars had limped to a 2-4 record. But in the last two games, they have pulled two games out of the fire to even their record at 4-4.</p>
        <p>But despite their record, the Jags have not played bad ball. We have played two sorry games, said Coach Mike Terrell. And weve played five good ball games.</p>
        <p>The main problem, as Terrell sees it, is effort. Last year we had a terrible season. Its easy to get down ourselves. The Jaguars, the coach says, have to win. Against Ck)nley we played our best game of the year. They realized it. When the Jaguars get behind, We dont have the effort to come back.</p>
        <p>The Jaguars lost three starters last year but have seven back that have some playing experience. Mike Ck&amp;gt;rbett is one of those returning starters. Corbett is leading the team in scoring with 13.3 per game average. The rest of the team is averaging below ten a game.</p>
        <p>As a whole, the Jaguars have been scoring an average of 56.4 points each game. But while that is not a bad output, their opponents have been getting 61 per game. That has created another problem for Terrell.</p>
        <p>The guards have not been shooting well. Last year one of our biggest weaknesses was our  shooting. It should improve. The Jaguars will be a more complete team, Terrell says w!en the scoring improves. i Were . . . making mistakes, bad passes and were losing the ball. We should improve. Farmville Central uses a swing type offense on a zone or a 2-1-2 against a man-to-man. Terrell stresses a lot of movement. But even with a lot of</p>
        <p>moving around, We dont make the shot when we have to.</p>
        <p>Defensively, however, the Jaguars have looked good. Its our strongest point. The games we have won were because of good-idefense. 'The ones they lost, he said, the Jags have not looked very good.</p>
        <p>Another problem the Jaguars have is a lack of height. That is not so bada lack of height seems to be a characteristic of the whole conference this season. Only Corbett is over six feet tall and this creates some rebounding problems. This should improve but it has to be a disadvantage against a taller team, Terrell said.</p>
        <p>Corbett Seems to be the team leader in about everything. He is</p>
        <p>greatly improved over last year with his defense showing a lot of improvement. Frankie Shelly had a fine defensive game against Ayden-Grifton. Walter Gorham and Greg Joyner have also been playing good jon defense. They all seem to play good together at times and not together (at times), said the coach.</p>
        <p>Terrell has been playing a lot of people. We play nine people every game. It.weakens us only when we have to take Corbett out. This platooning will have a long range effect as well in that it will give the younger players experience.</p>
        <p>The Jaguars will be playing in a holiday tournament this week. They will meet Rose in the first</p>
        <p>game of the Pitt County Invitational Tournament Friday night. Terrell said this will help basketball in the county a great deal. It increases interest. It will give an idea of the strength of basketball in Pitt County and it will help the boys with the tournament pressure.</p>
        <p>Over the rest of the season, Terrell sees the race to be between North Pitt and Conley. The teams, he said, are in a class by themselves. We have a chance to beat anybody.</p>
        <p>For the time being, the Jaguars are mainly trying to have fun. We try to teach them to enjoy basketball and to teach it as fun. You should enjoy basketball. But to enjoy it more, the Jaguars have to win more.</p>
        <p>By KEN RAPPOPORT AP Sports Writer The Marquett Warriors have slipped into a new role this season  second banana.</p>
        <p>Were very, very young," says A1 McGuire, coach of the nations sixth-ranked basketball team. I think well eventually get it together, but I dont see more than a .500 year. This is something well have to go through and it will be tough because its something we arent used to.</p>
        <p>One of the iron-clad college basketball teams over the years, Marquettes armor has been chipped this year with two straight losses, including Sattlr-day nights 80-69 loss to fourth-ranked Louisville.</p>
        <p>The Warriors, who only lost 17 games in five previous seasons and ranked second to UCLA for the best record during that period, were beaten by Pitt prior to the Louisville loss. The losing string put their record at 3-2 so far.</p>
        <p>Maybe theres something wrong with the coaching  bad substituting or something, McGuire said lightly, but added:</p>
        <p>I dont know whats wrong. This is the best shooting team Ive ever had. In practice were unbelievable. Were not missing that many shots. Were just not taking any.</p>
        <p>Incidentally, Saturday nights</p>
        <p>loss came on the Marquette home court, a place where the Warriors have been virtually unbeatable  winning 100 of 102 previous games.</p>
        <p>In other games Saturday, top-ranked North Carolina State took Davidson 95-79; No. 2 Indiana crushed Nebraska 97-60 to win the Indiana Classic; third-ranked UCLA trimmed No. 12 Notre Dame 85-72; fifthrated Maryland tripped George Washington 81-67; No. 7 Southern Cal won its Trojan Classic with an 84-74 triumph over New Mexico; No. 8 Alabama lashed Austin Peay 85-65; No. 9 Penn crushed Northeastern 109-72 and No. 10 North Carolina belted Yale 70-53.</p>
        <p>Among the second ten. No. 11 Memphis State beat Pepperdine 111-108 in overtime; 13th-ranked Arizona smashed Colorado 94-63; 14th-ranked South Carolina won the Carolina Classic with a 77-64 victory over Louisiana State; Providence, No. 16, took care of DePaul 85-71; 17th-rank-ed Oklahoma beat Wichita State 75-55 and No. 20 Kentucky took the Kentucky Invitational with a 90-65 decision over Oklahoma State.</p>
        <p>Along with Indiana, Southern Cal, South Carolina and Kentucky, Michigan, LaSalle, Long Beach State and Tennessee won holiday tournaments.</p>
        <p>LaSalle won the Dayton Tournament by beating Texas Tech</p>
        <p>73-64; Long Beach won the Cable Cac Classic with a 74-62 decision over Michigan State and Tennessee defeated Missouri 99-77 for the Big Sun championship.</p>
        <p>Louisvilles Cardinals walloped Marquette behind their one-two punch of Junior Bridgeman and Bill Bunton. Bridgeman scored 17 of his 22 points in the second half, including three layups and two free throws as Louisville took a 45-35 lead with 12:11 to play.</p>
        <p>Then the Cardinals broke it open with nine straight points to grab a 65-38 lead with 6:50 to play. Bunton scored 10 points and helped Louisville win the rebound war.</p>
        <p>David Thompson, the nations leading collegiate scorer, hit for 43 points to lead North Carolina States victory over outmanned Davidson. Thompson, who entered the game with a 36.8 average, led the defending national champions to their 34th straight victory.</p>
        <p>Scott May scored 27 points to pace Indiana past Nebraska. After a slow start, the Hoosiers exploded past the Comhuskers with a 13-2 string and put the game away early.</p>
        <p>Down by 19 points in the first half and as many as 16 in the second, UCLA rushed by Notre</p>
        <p>Dame on the shooting of Richard Washington and a rip-roaring defense.</p>
        <p>We were playing scared in the first half, said John Wooden, whose Bruins won their 71st straight game at home. At halftime I told them we cant catch up in five minutes. We must be patient.</p>
        <p>After cutting Notre Dames lead to 10 at halftime, UCLA appeared unsettled after the Fighting Irish scored six straight points at the start of the second half. But then Notre Dame, upset by the dazzling Bruin press, committed a bunch of turnovers and literally threw the game away.</p>
        <p>Washington scored 18 of his 25 points in the second half to lead the UCLA rally while Dave Meyers was the ringleader of the torturous Bruin defense.</p>
        <p>Moe Howard scored 21 points and Tom Roy collected 17 rebounds to lead Maryland over George Washington in a fight-punctuated game. Southern California defeated New Mexico as Gus Williams and Bob Trowbridge scored 16 points apiece.</p>
        <p>Alabama capitalized on 34 Austin Peay fouls and center Leon Douglas scored 19 points to lead Alabama.</p>

        <p>All but two Southern Conference basketball teams take this week off to reassess nearly a month of action which, despite its surprises and disappointments, has produced a modicum of success.</p>
        <p>The leagues eight members, even though only four are above the .500 mark over-all, are 15-16 against outside oppositionand that includes two brushes with top-ranked national champion North Carolina State and one with eighth-ranked Alabama.</p>
        <p>Only Furmans two-time defending champion Paladins, 3-2 over-all and 2-2 outside the conference, and Richmonds Spiders, 2-3 over-all and 0-2 against outside opposition, see action this week.</p>
        <p>The Paladins, who closed out their pre-Christmas schedule with a 77-66 victory Saturday night over Minnesota, will be the host team Thursday and Friday in the Poinsettia Classic. Furmans opening round foe will be George Washington.</p>
        <p>Richmond, one of four teams idle Saturday night, will play Friday and Saturday in the Tangerine Bowl. The Spiders opening round opponent will be Rollins.</p>
        <p>The conference came out 3-1 in battling Saturday night against nonleague opposition.</p>
        <p>William and Marys surprising Indians ran their record to 6-2 with a 59-58 squeeze past Wake Forest of the Atlantic CkMist Conference and East</p>
        <p>Carolinas Pirates, 4-3, after losing their first three games, overpowered Mercer 121-82.</p>
        <p>But Davidsons Wildcats, whove lost four in a row since winning their first two, were 95-79 victims of N. C. State. The Wildcats have been disappointing, having lost both their starts inside the league after being picked to challenge Furman for the championship.</p>
        <p>William and Mary, a team dominated b&amp;gt;^ sophomores and freshmen, has been the surprise. It was a sophomore, Ronnie Satterthwaite, who hit a free throw with just one second remaining to provide the victory over Wake Forest.</p>
        <p>I didnt really concentrate on the second. I knew the game was over, said Satterthwaite, who with freshman John Low-enhaupt led the Indians with 13 points. Another sophomore, Dennis Vail, scored 11 points and grabbed 10 rebounds and freshman Mike Enoch had 10 points.</p>
        <p>Down by 54-51 with 4:31 left, the Indians scored seven straight points for a 58-54 lead with 41 seconds left, but Cal Stamps two free throws and Daryl Petersons followup basket tied it with 15 'seconds remaining to set the stage for Satterthwaite.</p>
        <p>All 11 East Carolina players who saw action against Mercer scored and eight were in double</p>
        <p>figures, Reggie Lee getting 15 points, Larry Hunt and Robert Geter 14 each and Buzzy Braman 13. The Pirates shot 61 per cent in building a 62-28 halftime lead and 55 per cent for the game.</p>
        <p>Hunt also grabbed 18 rebounds, while Braman hit six of nine from the floor and Geter seven of 10, and Braman had six assists. Coach Dave Patton said thats the way were capable of playing.</p>
        <p>Previously unbeaten Minnesota took an early lead over Furman, but the Paladins rallied behind two-time All-Southern Clyde Mayes, who had 25 points for the fourth time in five games and grabbed 13 rebounds.</p>
        <p>Another two-time All-Southern choice, Fessor Leonard, contributed 15 points and 12 rebounds and Craig Lynch had 10 points, eight in the closing minutes of the first half for a 39-36 Furman lead.</p>
        <p>All-American David Thompson scored 43 points and freshman Kenny Carr 21 for N. C. State against Davidson, but the Wolfpack had to beat back a Wildcat rally.</p>
        <p>HATTIESBURG,  Miss.</p>
        <p>(AP)-T.L. Bobby Collins, faced with a year of on-the-road home games and less than rabid fan interest, takes on head football coaching duties at the University of Southern Mississippi Jan. 1.</p>
        <p>The 41-year-old Mississippi State graduate will leave his post as defensive coordinator at the University of North Carolina to succeed P.W. Bear Underwood, who resigned Dec. 3 after a 6-5 season.</p>
        <p>Collins was in Hattiesburg over the weekend as USM President Dr. W. D. McCain and Athletic Director Roland Dale announced bis selection.</p>
        <p>My family and I are excited and enthusiastic about returning to my home state, the Laurel native said Saturday. Any time you can come home, it means a great deal.</p>
        <p>Collins 1975 squad, as was Underwoods 1974 team, will be displaced by expansion work at USMs stadium. The 1974 team played its home games in Jackson and Mobile, drawing relatively sparce crowds, only about 4,000 at some contests.</p>
        <p>Collins tried to turn the situation to an advantage.</p>
        <p>Its something we cant do anything about, he said Saturday. We wiH just have to do with it and I think it could mean drawing the men closer together to meet the challenge.</p>
        <p>USM has used 14 of its allotted 30 scholarships for incoming freshman and Collins</p>
        <p>said recruiting would be his top priority.</p>
        <p>Im sure there are a number of boys hanging on, waiting to find out who would be named coach. I want to get out and meet these men and for them to meet me, he said.</p>
        <p>Collins, who has served on coaching staffs at Colorado State, George Washington, Virginia Tech and Mississippi State as well as North Carolina, has been given a free hand in putting together his staff.</p>
        <p>But, he said he does not plan to rush to select his assistants.</p>
        <p>I dont want to rush into anything, he said. It is an important part of the coaching job and I dont want to make a mistake. The members of the current staff will be interviewed and we will take it from there.</p>
        <p>Collins, who directed the Tar Heel offense before assuming his duties as defensive coordinator, said he didnt know if he would bring North Carolinas wide slot offense with him to Hattiesburg.</p>
        <p>It has been tremendous for us. Weve been in the Top 10 in offense most of the year at North Carolina and I have a lot of respect for the offense, he said. But, if the personnel does not dictate it down here, then we will go to something else.</p>
        <p>After the press conference, Collins returned to North Carolina where the Tar Heels are working out for their Dec. 28 Sun Bowl tilt with Collins alma mater, Mississippi State.</p>
        <p>East Carolina Universitys wrestling team continued its march through tournaments this weekend with their third straight Maryland Federation Wrestling championship.</p>
        <p>The Pirates edged out Cleveland State for the title, while Yale finished third and Quantico Marines finished fourth. The University of Virginia was fifth.</p>
        <p>The Pirates had two individual champions in the meet. Dan Monroe captured the IM-pound title, while Mike Radford took the crown at 190-pounds.</p>
        <p>Four other Pirates finished in second place. Paul Osman, a freshman, took second place at 134 pounds, while Tom Marriott lost his first match of the season at 150, suffering a one-point loss in the final 10 seconds of the</p>
        <p>Swimmers In Meet</p>
        <p>East Carolina Universitys defending Southern Conference champion swim team will see the realization of a goal come to life this week in Orlando, Fla</p>
        <p>The Pirates, who worked all fall on various projects to finance the trip, will be swimming in the annual North-South meet Dec. 27-28. Pirate head swim coach Ray Scharf will coach the South squad.</p>
        <p>Scharfs swimmers will leave Greenville Dec. 26. The Pirates next dual meet will be Jan. 10 in Minges Natatorium against the University of Richmond.</p>
        <p>match to finish second.</p>
        <p>Ron Whitcomb was second at 167, while John Williams took second to Radford at 190.</p>
        <p>Paul Ketcham was a third place at 134 pounds.</p>
        <p>The victory was the third straight tournament win for the Pirates this year. They had earlier won the N. C. Collegiate again, along with the Norfolk Thanksgiving Open.</p>
        <p>East Carolinas next outing will be at the Wilkes Open on Friday and Saturday, although Coach John Welbom said the team would not participate as a unit, but on an individual basis.</p>

        <p>Shula Philosophical Following Playoff Loss To Oakland Raiders</p>
        <p>By BRITE LOWITT AP Sports Writer Somehow it wont seem the same.</p>
        <p>Oh. therell be a Super Bowl, with all the pageantry and drama  and the money at stake  but the Super Team wont be there</p>
        <p>At least not the Super Team weve all gotten to know so well in the past few years, the team with the bulldozer named Larry Csonka. the surgeon named Bob Griese. the flea named Mercury Morris and the defense named no-names.</p>
        <p>The Miami Dolphins are champs no more, dethroned by the Oakland Raiders 28-26 Saturday in one of the National Football Leagues greatest playoff games ever And there are three other pretenders to the throne, too: the Pittsburgh Steelers, who whipped Buffalo 32-14, the Minnesota Vikings, who clubbed</p>
        <p>the St. Louis Cardinals 30-14 and the Los Angeles Rams, who downed Washington 19-10.</p>
        <p>Raiders 28, Dolphins 26</p>
        <p>Miami Coach Don Shula was philosphical after his dreams of a fourth straight trip to the Super Bowl, and perhaps a third straight championship, died under the withering aerial assault by Ken Stabler.</p>
        <p>The Oakland quarterbacks fourth touchdowh pass of the game  an eight-yarder to Clarence Davis with 26 seconds to play  vaulted the Raiders past the Dolphins Saturday and into the American Conference title game against Pittsburgh.</p>
        <p>When you lose like that, you know winning just wasnt meant to be, said Shula. Your dreams go down the drain. They needed a touchdown and they got it. I think it is the toughest loss Ive ever suffered as a coach.</p>
        <p>Miami led 19-14 with about</p>
        <p>five minutes to play. But Stabler teamed with Cliff Branch on a 71-yard play that put Oakland on top 21-19 with 4:28 left  and back came the Dolphins with rookie Benny Malone turning in a 23-yard touchdown run. Miami was on top 26-21 with 2:08 to go.</p>
        <p>Stabler and the Raiders werent through yet. With four passes and a burst up the middle by Davis, Oakland was suddenly on the Miami eight-yard line. Then came the pass to Davis  in a swarm of defenders  that ended Miamis domination of the NFL.</p>
        <p>It was the biggest win for us in a long time, Stabler said. It was a question of big plays. You have to play consistently. We feel we are never out of a game.</p>
        <p>Four ACC Teams Take Victories</p>
        <p>By The Associated Press Heading into the Atlantic Coast Conference Christmas break. North Carolina State, Maryland, North Carolina and Duke scored basketball victories Saturday while Clemson and Wake Forest fell to outside opposition.</p>
        <p>All seven ACC teams will be idle until the weekend.</p>
        <p>Then on Friday night: -Top-ranked N.C. State will meet Kent State in a double-header in Raleigh, N.C.</p>
        <p>Duke faces Pittsburgh in the other half of the twin bill, with the teams swapping opponents Saturday night.</p>
        <p>-Fifth-ranked Maryland hosts Georgia Tech in its invitational tournament, with the possibility meeting UCLA the following night.</p>
        <p>-Tenth-ranked North Carolina will be winging its way to sunny Spain for a four-team international round-robin tournament.</p>
        <p>Clemson takes on Auburn in the Pillsbury Classic at Minneapolis.</p>
        <p>Virginia will go against Wisconsin in the opening round of the Milwaukee Classic.</p>
        <p>Wake Forest will pley Washington State in the Far West Tournament at Portland, Ore.</p>
        <p>The ACC teams will be carrying a 26-7 edge against outside opponents going into this weekend while overall they are 28-9 North Carolina State and Maryland are 6-0 in all games and 1-0 in league play. North Carolina is 4-1, Duke 3-1 and Gemson is 3-4, with no ACC games to their credit so far. Wake Forest is 3-2 and Virginia is 3-1, with both 0-1 in the conference.</p>
        <p>North Carolina State rolled up its 34th consecutive victory Saturday night, tripping Davidson 95-79 David Thompson, who had a 36.8 average going into the game led the Wolfpack with 43 points..</p>
        <p>In a game marred with several mid&amp;lt;ourt scuffles, Maryland beat George Washington 81-67. Three technical fouls were called. Tom Roy led the Terps attack with 21 points and 17 rebounds.</p>
        <p>Sophomore Walter Davis exploded for 20 points to lead the Tar Heels to a 70-53 triumph over winless Yale. Yale attempted to stop North Carolina with a slowdown offense.</p>
        <p>Duke called on its reserves frequently to defeat Princeton 66-56 in the consolation game of the first annual Carolina Classic at Columbia, S.C.</p>
        <p>Wake Forest lost a 59-58 heat-breaker to William and Mary. The Deacons held a four-point lead with 41-seconds to go, but lost when Ronnie Satterwhite dropped a free throw for William and Mary with one second remaining.</p>
        <p>Gemson who has lost almost as many games as the other ACC teams combined suffered its fourth disappointment against Dayton. With 16 seconds left John Davis sank two free throws to give the Flyers a 71-69 win over the Tigers. Virginia was idle all week. With a 43-point performance Saturday, All-American David</p>
        <p>Steelers 32, Bills 14 The best game Ive ever had in the pros, Pittsburghs Terry Bradshaw mused ater his deadly second-period passing set up three short Franco Harris touchdown runs that buried the Bills and pushed Pittsburgh into the AFC showdown in Oakland.</p>
        <p>Bradshaw hit seven of nine passes in the 26-point second-quarter burst and wound up completing 12 of 19 passes for 203 yards and rushing five times for 48 yards. "Ive never really felt in complete control of the game like that before, he said.</p>
        <p>Lou Saban, coach of the Bills, observed: "The most telling factor was that they just handled us offensivejy ... Im not sure how they did what they did against us, but they blew us out.</p>
        <p>Vikings 30, Cardinals 14</p>
        <p>John Gilliam is the best receiver Ive ever worked with, said Fran Tarkenton, whose two touchdown passes to the Minnesota wide receiver led the Vikings past the St. Louis Cardinals and into the National Conference championship game for the second year in a row.</p>
        <p>"Ive played with some great ones, like Homer Jones at New York, but Gillie is the best in football, added Tarkenton, who found Gilliam with a 16-yard game-tying pass late in</p>

        <p>Open Daily 5:30 AM-3 PM Fri. A Sat. 'til 10 PM</p>
        <p>State continues to be the talk of the conference.</p>
        <p>States sparkplug guard Monte Towe says Thompson is playing better than last year and doing more things.</p>
        <p>Jim McCachren, who once coached with the Wolfpacks Norm Sloan at the University of Florida, watched the State-Davidson game. First time Ive seen Thompson in persons, said McCachren, a three-time all Southern at North Carolina 40 years ago.</p>
        <p>Hes the best Ive seen since Rick Barry played for Miami of Florida. Barry cant jump as hight but hes taller and fills up the basket like this fellow. Thompson is one of those dream players that comes along once in a lifetime, McCachren said.</p>
        <p>Davidsons Gregg Dunn, who shared much of the burden of guarding Thompson, said, He jumps 43 inches. Theres not you can do with that.</p>
        <p>And one Charlotte sports writer observed; He has more shots than Buffalo Bill Cody. He moves with the ease and the grace of a cat. He hangs in the air longer than Peter Pan on a wire from the rafters The best way to stop Thompson is keep him on the bench Davidson didnt have a chance because David was the only athlete on the floor who played the entire 40 minutes</p>
        <p>a third quarter that put the game out of reach.</p>
        <p>Jim Hart put the Cards on the scoreboard first, passing 13 yards to Earl 'Thomas for a touchdown late in the half. They didnt score again until</p>
        <p>the final minute, on Terry Metcalfs 11-yard run.</p>
        <p>The Vikings finished off the Cards with a 16-point third period. Jeff Wrights interception was turned into Fred Cox 37-yard tie-breaking field goal, Nate Wright scored a minute later on a 20-yard run after hed recovered Metcalfs fumble, then Tarkenton unleashed his second scoring strike to Gilliam.</p>
        <p>The score ballooned to 30-7 late in the fourth quarter when running back Chuck Foreman capped an outstanding 114-yard day with a four-yard scoring burst.</p>
        <p>We didnt play our greatest game in the Super Bowl last year, he said But I think well play better if we go back.</p>
        <p>But first theyve got to get past the Rams.</p>
        <p>Rams It, Redskins 10 George Allen always said that if you can get six turnovers in a game, youll win it, Los Angeles huge defensive tackle. Merlin Olsen, said of his former coach, now with Washington. We got six today,</p>
        <p>The Rams intercepted three passes, one of them resulting in a touchdown, and recovered three fumbles, with two leading to tying and winning field 'goals.</p>
        <p>And Olsen had a hand  a big, meaty All-Pro hand  in what turned out to be the decisive scores.</p>
        <p>There is nothing graceful about rushing opposing backs, said the 275-pound All-Pro. Sometimes you dont know how you got there. You just got there.</p>
        <p>First he got to running back Larry Brown, forcing a fumble that preceded Rays game-tying 37-yard field goal in the third period.</p>
        <p>On the ensuing kickoff, Doug Cunningham fumbled, the Rams recovered and Ray kicked a 26-yarder that put Los Angeles on top to stay at 13-10 in the fourth period.</p>
        <p>And, finally, with the Redskins playing catchup, Olsen slammed into quarterback Sonny Jurgensen, ruining the timing on a pass. Linebacker Isiah Robertson picked it off and ran it 59 yards for a touchdown.</p>
        <p>The Rams scored first on James Harris 10-yard pass to Bob Klein but a 35-yard field goal by Mike Bragg and a one-yard plunge by Moses Denson gave Washington a 10-7 half-time edge.</p>

        <p>Rv U/rkTkTkV DC1?I C'  .4...  .</p>
        <p>By WOODY PEELE Reflector Sports Editor (One of a series)</p>
        <p>SNOW HILL - Greene Central High Schools girls are off to the best start in their four year history of basketball, and have hopes of showing a lot more improvement before this season has become history.</p>
        <p>One reason for the increased victory production is that four of the five starters on last years team have come back this year. They include forward Judith Tripp, guards Ellen Barrow and Teresa Whitley, along with center Delilah Pridgen.</p>
        <p>This gives us a real good nucleus to work with, Coach Becky McLawhorn said. Currently she is using Vickie Shingleton as the other forward.</p>
        <p>The experience we have returning, plus the fact that the girls in the county are beginning to learn how to play ball has helped us a lot, Mrs. McLawhorn said. With only a four-year history of basketball, many of the girls who played in the past had no previous experience. Now, junior high programs are helping the high school edition.</p>
        <p>We have a lot of desire, too, the coach said.</p>
        <p>Mrs. McLawhorn feels that the teams height is real good, although there is no extreme height. We have four who are 5-9 or 5-10, Pridgen is our tallest starter at 5-9. Joyce Dupree is the tallest at 5-10, but she has little experience.</p>
        <p>Because of this height, the Ewes have been able to rebound well so far, either breaking even or outrebounding their opponents.</p>
        <p>But shooting ability is bothering Mrs. McLawhorn. We are still missing a lot of easy shots, but overall its better than last year. Were getting more shots due to our rebounding, and also because we are learning how to move to get the shots.</p>
        <p>Defensively, the Greene Central girls have been able to go with several different defenses. The girls are hustling more and have done a much better job of getting steals. Basically, well play in a zone, but we have been able to do some pressing and some man-to-man defense.</p>
        <p>Mrs. McLawhorn</p>
        <p>has also</p>
        <p>been able to turn to her bench when necessary. Weve played at least seven people in every game, and in some weve been able to use everyone. Chief substitutes have been Patrice Lanier, who alternated with Whitley, along with Vanesse Hooker and Judy Merritt.</p>
        <p>In the Eastern Carolina Conference race, Mrs. McLawhorn feels that the Ewes have a chance to be near the top at the end of the season. There are four or five teams who could win it, she said. There is not a North Pitt-type team this year to dominate the league. We feel we have a good chance, as does about everyone else in the conference since there is such good balance.</p>
        <p>The coach added that she feels that Southern Wayne and North Lenoir are probably the two who will get the most votes to win it however. We had an off night when we played Southern Wayne, and I think we can do better later when we play them again.</p>
        <p>One thing is for sure, its a lot more pleasurable to be in a position to battle for one of the top positions instead of trying to get out of the basement.</p>

        <p>HOUSTON (AP) - North Carolina State and the University of Houston square off tonight in the Astro Bluebonnet Bowl game and fans at the game and watching on tele-vison will see teams which look much the same.</p>
        <p>Both the teams offensive machines use the veer offense, invented by Houston Coach BiU Yoeman, the most widely copied collegiate football attack now in use.</p>
        <p>North Carolina States Lou Holtz has his own version of the veer, and the Wolfpacks duel tonight is the third straight bowl date for the team.</p>
        <p>Under HoIU, N.C. State has produced a three-year record of 28-6-1. Included are a Liberty Bowl victory over Kansas 1973 and a 1972 Peach Bowl win over West Virginia.</p>
        <p>The Wolfpack finished the regular season with a 9-2 record. The Cougars were 8-3 going into tonights contest, which starts at 9:05 p.m. EST,</p>
        <p>In games this year, the Wolfpack averaged 406 yards per game total offense while Houston racked up 405 per game. One notable difference saw State fumbling just 32 times in 11 games, losing 19. The Cougars lost 32 of 61 fumbles.</p>
        <p>I feel we have some great running backs, Holtz said, referring to Stain Fritts and Ro</p>
        <p>land Hooks. I think Houstons backs are comparable to ours, so that should tell you what I think of Houston.</p>
        <p>Fritz and Hooks rushed for 2,019 yards and 19 touchdowns. Houstons John Houseman and Marshal] Johnson covered 1,833 yards while scoring 14 touchdowns.</p>
        <p>Holtz said both teams should be able to move the ball but it wont be necessarily mean a high-scoring game.</p>
        <p>It will depend on the cir-cumsUnces. If they get the ball on our 26-yard line, I know theyll put it in the end zone.</p>
        <p>Houston plays its home games in the Astro Dome, and a UH touchdown means a spec-taculatr display from the home scorebord When State held a practice in the Dome Sunday, Holtz asked that the scoreboard be set (rff so his team could se it.</p>
        <p>I just dont want my players standing around looking at it during the game, he said, especially if it wasnt us who made the thing light up.</p>
        <p>The New York Yankees set a major league record last season with 72 sacrifice flies, topped by Bobby Murcers 12.</p>
        <p>By The Associated Press</p>
        <p>The Indiana Pacers had a hard time Sunday night. They not only had to play the Kentucky Colonels but battle the officials as well.</p>
        <p>The Colonels beat them 118-110, but it might have been different if the officials had played ball, insists Pacer Coach Bob Leonard.</p>
        <p>It was those two guys out there in striped shirts, snapped Leonard, who felt that the G&amp;gt;lonels got away with murder while fouling left and right. We didnt deserve to be that close but once we got there it shouldnt make them call it any different. Thats two times in a row weve been burned. All that grabbing and holding going on at the end.</p>
        <p>The Colonels, on the other hand, quite naturally didnt think they were aided by the referees.</p>
        <p>The victory, the Colonels fifth in six days. lifted the Colonels back into first place in the American Basketball Associations Eastern Division over the New York Nets. The Nets had a lO-game winning streak stopped by the Utah Stars, 83-77, and dropped 12 percentage point behind the Colonels.</p>

        <p>WU Jones 27 points and Louie Dampiers fourth-period heriocs sparked Kentucky over Indiana.</p>
        <p>Kentucky had an 18-point lead cut to two at 93-91, and then Dampier hit 10 points in the next six minutes to lead the (Lionels out of danger. He had 25 points for the game.</p>

        <p>Many Shared In Christmas Tree</p>
        <p>NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP)-For the first (Christinas in five years, Julia Antonita Sais-Mar-tinez has a home, a family and a Christmas tree.</p>
        <p>Then 17, the Mexican-born Miss Sais-Martinez landed in Nashvilles juvenile detention center Nov. 6 when she was found by police hitchhiking along a highway.</p>
        <p>But this week, with the help of a juvenile judge and the tacit approval of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service, Miss Sais-Martinez happily helped Myra and Reinaldo Alea and their children decorate their (Christmas tree and talked of returning to school.</p>
        <p>Miss Sais-Martinez, was four weeks short of her 18th birthday when she was picked up by police.</p>
        <p>She told the court that she had left home at the age of 13 and has spent the past five years wandering. She attended a Catholic boarding school in Sonora, Mexico, briefly. For the past three years, she said, she has been hitchhiking around the U.S., supporting herself by working as a waitress or caring for children.</p>
        <p>1 learned to speak English from listening to people and</p>
        <p>reading, she said. 1 learn fast.</p>
        <p>Julia admitted, that she was in the U.S. illegally.</p>
        <p>But David A. (Cole, officer-incharge of the Immigration Services Memphis office, said other cases had higher priority.</p>

        <p>By and large, students who attend East (Carolina University are noted for their creativity.</p>
        <p>(Coming largely from the rural heartland of Eastern North Carolina, its farms and small towns, ECU students are ingenious, skilled in crafts, in working with materials drawn from the land, sea and shore, with their hands and fingers. They are an original do it yourself bunch.</p>
        <p>None more so than the large number of ECU students who come to the campus Financial Aid Office in steady streams, seeking part-time jobs, enrolling in self-help and work-study programs, applying for other sources of money to help finance and continue their education. Christmas time, to these youngsters, means a lot.</p>
        <p>There is striking, beautiful evidence of this in what happened in the ECU Financial Aid Office during this (Christmas season.</p>
        <p>One day about two weeks ago, Ken Wheeler, assistant Financial Aid officer, brought in a living, six-foot white pine to be used by the office force as a (Christmas tree.</p>
        <p>The students who saw it, green, graceful and undecorated, were struck by its natural beauty and suddenly, spontaneously decided to ask to decorate it themselves with original materials.</p>
        <p>"One by one they came and</p>
        <p>asked if they could make an ornament and put it on the tree, says Robert M. Boudreaux, ECU Financial Aid Officer.</p>
        <p>Suddenly, it seemed as though all the youngsters who had come in were pitching in, says Boudreaux. All over campus they were making things.</p>
        <p>Instead of store bought* lights, tinsel and glitter, the trees branches were soon filled with dozens of handmade, original ornaments.</p>
        <p>There are pine cones dipped in melted, colored wax, lovely figurines made of com shucks. There are handpainted balls and stars, tinfoil snowflakes, paper Santas, tiny dolls and puppets on a string. Approximately 70 ornaments made the tree breathtakingly beautiful.</p>
        <p>Its good to know that our students here on campus still have the spirit of (Christmas, says Brenda Edwards of the FAO. Co-worker Sandi Hall says, This Christmas tree enabled us to share the joy of Christmas on a one to one relationship between students and staff.</p>
        <p>This tree has really been a lot of fun to decorate as students who received financial aid brought the ornaments to us. This has really brought the students and the staff closer together. We have all enjoyed sharing the spirit of Christmas with our students, says Pat (Cochran.</p>
        <p>Two Americans In Airliner Crash Toll</p>
        <p>CARACAS, Venezuela (AP)  Two Americans were reported among the 77 persons killed in the crash of a Venezuelan airliner four minutes after it took off from Maturin for Caracas. There were no survivors.</p>
        <p>Avensa, the airline that was operating the DC9 jet, said the dead Americans were Paul Rice and William Richard, who boarded the plane in Maturin No other information was available on them.</p>
        <p>There may have been other foreigners among the passengers, but we cannot now say how many nor supply any identities, said a spokesman for the airline</p>
        <p>The bodies of the 71 passengers and six crew members were reported scattered over a wide area. The recovery teams that continued to collect the victims remains today reported it would be difficult to identify the dead because they were badly burned</p>
        <p>The flight Sunday originated in Ciudad Bolivar and stopped at Puerto Ordaz and then Maturin, 360 miles east of Caracas.</p>
        <p>There was an explosion on board shortly after takeoff and then the plane crashed, said the Avensa spokesman.</p>
        <p>An official at the Maturin control tower said there was no report of trouble from the plane, which still was making altitude at the time of the mishap.</p>
        <p>(^mpany officials declined to comment on the possibility of a hijacking attempt or sabotage. The Venezuelan government ordered an investigation to determine the cause of the crash.</p>

        <p>Metallic Bits In A Baby's Cereal Food</p>
        <p>CHARLOTTE (AP)  A Charlotte couple was startled Sunday morning when a box of instant cereal was opened for their 1-year-old son and several slivers of metal were found inside.</p>
        <p>William A. Williams said he and his wife counted 30 to 40 metal shavings in the eight-ounce box and theres still more.</p>
        <p>Williams said his mother, who was visiting for the holidays, discovered the slivers, at least one of which was about an inch in length, when she opened a box of Heinz Instant Rice cereal.</p>
        <p>He said the metal was found in a box which carried the notation Lot No. BP 1444.</p>
        <p>A spokesman for the K-Mart supermarket where the cereal was purchased said the stock was removed from the stores shelves Sunday.</p>
        <p>Harry Carroll, general manager for communication of H.J. Heinz Co., said from Pittsburgh that the company wanted to check a sample of the material.</p>
        <p>Carroll said he could not figure out how any foreign matter could get into the package. He said the company would get in touch with Williams.</p>
        <p>Denny Dodd, district manager for Heinz in the Carolinas and Virginia, said the incident would be throughly investigated. Naturally all the cereal will be examined to see that no foreign material was in there, he said.</p>
        <p>Weve been in business since 1869 and we make quality products, Dodd said. Ive got a couple of grandbabies and we feed them Heinz cereal and we never question the quality, he said.</p>
        <p>Dodd skid it was the first incident of it*.^ind that he has encountered in''i^e Charlotte district, adding that the company could make no explanation until all the facts were known.</p>
        <p>Williams said the shavings ranged in size from little flakes the size of a pinhead to one sliver that was a little over an inch long.</p>
        <p>Most of them were spiral like those that come off a turing lathe," he said Williams ruled out any possibility of a suit saying, There was no real damage done. We just want to try and make sure some unsuspecting parent doesnt give his kid some cereal with this stuff in it.</p>
        <p>MIAMI, Fla. (AP)  Police are investigating possible links between a missing page from a Bible and the ritualistic slaying of a 9-year-old Pennsylvania boy.</p>
        <p>Detective Edward Carberry said Sunday he would compare the Bible with another to see if the missing verses provide any clues in the throat-slashing death of Arnold 2^1eznik of zort Washington, Pa.</p>
        <p>Carberry said the Bible, missing one page, was in the room when a motel employe found the child in a pool of blood.</p>
        <p>Soon after the boys body was discovered in a motel bathroom Friday, police arrested a man identified as Vernal Walford, 31, alias Robert Grant, of Hartford, (^nn., and charged him with first-degree murder.</p>
        <p>Like sacrificing a lamb, it</p>
        <p>looked like he held the child so the throat would be over the toilet, let him bleed .. . Carberry said.</p>
        <p>Police said the Zeleznik family had stopped at the airport motel on the way to Costa Rica for a vacation. Arnold and his father. Carter, went to meet friends when Zeleznik stepped back to his room to leave a key with his wife, police said.</p>
        <p>Arnold was alone in the corridor for a few minutes when his family heard a scream, police said. The parents searched for their son without success and then sought help, police said.</p>
        <p>Officers said they found a poorly spelled message in Wal-fords pocket. It read, (Jod of Isreal say so. The God say this. 'The te pie must not be used for any voilince nor any police office, (^ild offer has sace-fices.</p>
        <p>President Urged To Ask Less Nicotine, Tar In Cigarettes</p>
        <p>A HOME AT LASTFor five years Julie Antonita Sais-Martinez has been wandering. A runaway since the age of</p>
        <p>13, the woman has been given a home with a Nashville, Tenn. couple. (AP Wirephoto)</p>
        <p>WASHINGTON (AP) - President Ford has been urged by the National Cancer Advisory Board to personally appeal to the nations tobacco companies for a voluntary reduction of tar and nicotine levels in cigarettes.</p>
        <p>The board proposed that the presidential appeal be followed by action empowering a federal agency to set maximum cigarette tar and nicotine levels, which would be steadily reduced year by year.</p>
        <p>The recommendations came in response to Fords request on Oct. 23 for an assessment of scientific evidence that would provide a basis for federal cigarette regulation. In sending to Congress a board proposal for cigarette regulation. Ford had said there is considerable dispute about the scientific evidence available.</p>
        <p>The tobacco industry has adamantly opposed previous calls for federal regulation of cigarette tar and nicotine levels. No regulations exist now, but the Federal Trade Commission publishes reports of tar and nicotine levels in cigarettes.</p>
        <p>in its new assessment the Cancer Advisory Board cited numerous studies in humans that the board said showed a dose-response relationship between the number of cigarettes smoke and lung cancer. Such evidence suggests that as a smoker cuts down the number</p>
        <p>of cigarettes, 'he proportionately reduces the risk.</p>
        <p>The board cited other studies that showed risk also is reduced by reducing tar and nicotine in a cigarette, through a filter, for example.</p>
        <p>Tar and nicotine levels in 1973 averaged 19.2 milligrams of tar and 1.3 milligrams of nicotine, about half of what they were two decades ago when concern first surfaced about smoking and health.</p>
        <p>Doe Crashes In Window</p>
        <p>MONA, Utah (AP)  A female deer apparently fleeing dogs crashed through a thermal pane window in a home here. It then skidded across the living room floor while the occupants trimmed their Christmas tree, leaped through another window and dashed into the woods.</p>
        <p>Dr. John G. Steele, a physi-cian-surgeon, said he was standing in his living room looking out the window when he saw the doe running toward his home.</p>
        <p>Steel said he began waving his arms as the animal came closer, but that the deer leaped through the window and just missed him and his wife.</p>

        <p>The animal skidded on the ice on top of our swimming pool, clambered to its feet,^ leaped another fence and headed toward the western hills.</p>

        <p>Holshouser Hopeful' Over Prospects</p>
        <p>Rv RORITRT n rlTI I ITM  T i</p>
        <p>By ROBERT B. CULLEN Associated Press Writer RALEIGH (AP)  Despite some embarassing political debacles in 1974, North Carolina Gov. Jim Holshouser says he is not discouraged as he looks toward the second half of his four-year term.</p>
        <p>On the contrary, the governor told the Associated Press in an interview, he is excited and hopeful.</p>
        <p>The past year saw Holshouser lose his battle to support the University of North Carolina Board of Governors on the East Carolina University medical school issue; emharassed by the extracurricular activities of the enforcement and Theft Division in the Department of Motor Vehicles;., and badly beaten in the November elections.</p>
        <p>His administrations road construction program fell behind schedule, and a regional conference on nutrition criticized North Carolina for its failure to feed its hungry through the federal food stamp program.</p>
        <p>Holshouser ticked off his reaction to those problems one by one. The elections didnt suit us, theres no question about that. But in Georgia, Tennessee and Virginia, the GOP had similar results, not unlike what happened in 1964 and 1970. Most agencies havent had the problem we had in enforc-</p>
        <p>ment and 'Theft. I wish I could say we were perfect. Were not, but theres been no instance where anyone has been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Some people have told me that this is the cleanest administration they could remember, he said.</p>
        <p>On roads, Holshouser said there have been inevitable delays, particularly in urban areas. But I think the public will forgive a delay of 12 months. The increased costs are going to stretch our completion schedules. I think ^ people can have confidence that weve set up a program that allows. professional, corrdinated . planning, and thats never been done before.</p>
        <p>And, he said that in October, 1973, there were 260,000 people receiving food stamps. Now there are 430,000. Of course, I guess some of that can be attributed to the layoffs.</p>
        <p>'The governor, who was suffering from a sore throat and a cold, was eager to tick off what he felt were his administrations program accomplishments.</p>
        <p>The administrative efficiency program, he said, has saved $34 million, although the savings will not take the form of surplus revenue.</p>
        <p>It will, instead, prevent the continuing operations budget from expanding. For the current year, it is $1.694 billion.</p>
        <p>Next year, despite inflation, it will be $1.699 billion, almost a zero increase, he said.</p>
        <p>'The belt-tightening has consisted of efficiencies like five-year license tags for cars, and a whole lot of little things.</p>
        <p>In addition, he said, the Administration has improved state services from parks to immunization of small children.</p>
        <p>Riffling through sheafs of papers on his desk, Holshouser quoted statistics to show that more parkland has been bought in the past 16 months than the past 56 years; the ratio of staff to patients in state mental hospitals has been cut in half; and that the average wage in new industries attracted by the state is up 25 per cent.</p>
        <p>For the future, Holshouser said, the goals are clouded by the economic picture. New facilities and programs in many areas, he grimaced are so darned expensive.  '</p>
        <p>"rhe biggest challenge is in education. Id like to complete the kindergarten program, but I dont thi^ the money will be available to do it any faster than 1978.</p>
        <p>We need improvement in our child screening program</p>
        <p>and our services for exceptional children. Kids need to read better. But I dont think the problem will be solved by throwing money at it. Ek;onomically, Holshouser said he hopes to continue to try to develop industry in rural areas. Our average citizen is earning one of the lowest wages in the country. We cant be satisfied with that.</p>
        <p>We need a big push in health care, getting these AHECs (Area Health Education Centers) into operation, weve done a lot of things that were</p>
        <p>PHILIPPINES VISITORS</p>
        <p>MANILA (UPI) - A total of 314,229 foreign travelers visited the Philippines from January to October this year, the Tourism Department said, up 79.13 per cent over the same period in 1973, when 175,416 tourists visited the country.</p>
        <p>The department said the tourists spent $94.32 million U.S. dollars during their stay here.</p>
        <p>The Japanese were the biggest group of arrivals during the 10 month period. They totalled 126,109, up 203.05 per cent.</p>
        <p>Knowing the young woman and liking her (and also being desperate), I hired her.</p>
        <p>When my friends returned fit&amp;gt;m their vacation they let me know that they were very angry because I had hired their former housekeeper. The wife said it was a slap in the face to her that I didnt trust her opinion when she said the woman was not competent to care for children.</p>
        <p>Now the friendship is ruined. And my husband and I are upset because we enjoyed a very nice relationship with this family. Was I wrong in hiring this woman? WONDERING</p>

        <p>^he six countries of the sub-Sahara region of West Africa Chad, Mali, Mauretania, Niger, Senegal and Upper Volta-perennially arid, have been scourged by especially severe drought for over six years. Only this year do plentiful rains at last seem to have brought some relief. Even before this recent exigency, these countries were among the worlds poorest, their peoples existence a pr^ariously balanced thing. Last year, reports of the imminence of mass starvation were widely circulated in the outside world. International agencies, among them the U.S. Agency for Internatioiwl Development,shipped in enough emergency food supplies to mit gate that threat.  ^</p>
        <p>Now the long-term problems remain, for the traditional ways of life adapted to frugal survival in an inhospitable environment have been seriously disrupted and may have gone forever. Tremendous change has to be faced and there are no quick and easy solutions. The food relief effort will now have to be followed up by development assistance of a particularly far-sighted and sensitive kind.</p>

        <p>Q.lNorth-South vulnerable, as South you hold:</p>
        <p> K6 K1087 462 Q9854 The bidding has proceeded: North East South It .2*  ?</p>
        <p>What action do you take?</p>
        <p>A.Bid two hearts. Its likely that you can defeat two clubs, but hardly a certainty. In addition, your hand is better suited to offense than defense because of your length in partner's suit. If partner is short in clubs, you could easily have a game, which will not be recompensed by a low-level penalty double.</p>
        <p>Q.5East-West vulnerable, as South you hold:</p>
        <p> 9843 e 463 4QJ9865 The bidding has proceeded: North East South West 3 Pass ?</p>
        <p>What action do you take?</p>
        <p>A.It is not a question of whether the opponents can make a slam, but whether they can make a p-and slam. Anything you can do to impede their pro-........ile  a</p>
        <p>jump to six clubs might throw a monkey wrench in their bidding machinery, we are in. favor of</p>
        <p>Q.2Both vulnerable, as South you hold:</p>
        <p> 762 t83 95 AQ10953 Partner opens the bidding with one no trump. What is your response?</p>
        <p>A.Despite the fact that you have only 6 points in high cards, we suggest a gambling raise to three no trump. Any time partner has the king of clubs, your hand rates to produce six tricks at no trump. Even if he has only three low clubs, your hand should yield at least five tricks, leaving partner to look for only four more. Any attempt to play the hand in a club part score is., safe but short-sighted.</p>
        <p>Q.3Both vulnerable, as South you hold:</p>
        <p> Q10873 AJ6 ^38 4762 Partner opens the bidding "wttirinie-feeart. What is your response?</p>
        <p>A.Two hearts. Your hand is worth only one forward-going bid, and it is more important to show good trump support for partner's suit than to bid a suit of ^your own. That will allow partoer to revalue his hand, which could enable your side to get to a laydown game.</p>
        <p>Q.4Neither vulnerable, as South you hold:</p>
        <p> Q9 VAQ  AKQ1093 4Q98 The bidding has proceeded: West North East South 1 V  Pass Pass ?</p>
        <p>What action do you take?</p>
        <p>A.Bid two no trump. This action might seem reckless with two suits only partially stopped, but no other bid will fully express the tremendous trick-taking potential of your hand. In a balancing situation of this sort, a jump in no trump is natural, not unusual. Since East has shown a near bust by his pass, you can expect to find some cards in partners hand. Indeed, a bid of three no trump would not be too daring.</p>
        <p>going all the way by leaping to seven clubs.</p>
        <p>Q.6As South .vulnerable, you hold:  </p>
        <p> 9 4AQ87 K9 4AK10654 The bidding has proceeded: East South</p>
        <p>14?</p>
        <p>What do you bid?</p>
        <p>A.Two clubs. Though you have the strength for a double, you might not be able to handle the subsequent auction if partner insists on bidding your short suits. This is a slight underbid, however, but the odds are that someone will keep the bidding open, enabling you to show greater strength at your next turn. Note that, in modern bidding a jump to three clubs would be preemptive.</p>
        <p>Q.7As South .vulnerable, you hold:</p>
        <p> KQ9 4 AK85  A105 4 AQ6</p>
        <p>The bidding has proceeded: South West North East 2NT 3 4 Pass 4 4</p>
        <p>7</p>
        <p>What action do you take?</p>
        <p>A.Pass.  Your first bid</p>
        <p>promised more than half the strenrth in the pack, so partner should interpret your pass as forcing. If partner has a long suit, game or even slam cannot be ruled out, but subsequent action depends on what partner does next. Without a clear-cut bid, he can double in the knowledge that you have sufficient high cards to defeat the opponents.</p>
        <p>Q.8Both vulnerable, as South you hold:</p>
        <p> 7 4AQ65 4 3102 4K10953 The bidding has proceeded: North East South</p>
        <p>1 4  2 4  ?</p>
        <p>What action do you take?</p>
        <p>A.Double. True, this is speculative, but the odds make it attractive. Assume Elast makes his contract. You will have given him an extra 40 points below the line and 50 aboveand you have not doubled him into game. On the positive side, your cards appear well placed behind the overcaller. Add to that your ruffing possibilities, and there is the cnance for a substantial penalty even if Elast is full value for his bid.</p>

        <p>A Superb Snow On The Navajo</p>

        <p>NEW YORK (AP) - The NBC Television network is taking care of (Tiristmas business tonight with Scrooge. a wonderful 1970 movie musical version of Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol. Be sure to watch it. But also make certain you stay tuned for NBCs following show, The Navajo Way, a superb one-hour mood piece about the still-surviving, still-strong traditions and culture of Americas largest Indian tribe.</p>
        <p>The program, written and narrated in a gentle, low-key manner by Robert "Shad Northshield, is a far cry from those plight-of-the-Indian TV essays which always seem to exhibit more pity than understanding.</p>

        <p>The title of the program sums it up: They survive because of the Navajo way, a culture in which nothing is compartmentalized, in which shearing a sheep requires just as much religious ritual as burying a relative.</p>
        <p>Their way primarily is explained through the lives of a Navajo family and Long Salt, an 85-year-old medicine man. And it is consistently treated with dignity and respect, no doubt because the show is as much a homecoming for Northshield as it is a portrait of Navajo life.</p>

        <p>The child was brought to Long Salt, rituals and chants performed and whatever monster lived within the tiny body, it apparently was slain by Long alts ministrations, Northshield notes as he shows current film of the hoy, now  strapping young man.</p>
        <p>As he points out, the m^-cine man is tradition and tradition heals. That is the way of these people.</p>
        <p>Its a theme he keeps driving home, not only in tracing the Navajo history but also in describing, with a quietly controlled anger, the increasing intrusion of white culture on that of-the Navajos.</p>
        <p>Northshield and his crew spent six weeks with the Navajos filming on their reservation near the Arizona-Utah border.</p>
        <p>Theyve come up with a show of far more sensitivity than you usually see on the tube. And they deserve many cheers, if not an Emm^ award, for the care they put into The Navajo Way.</p>

        <p>('are of Poinsettias The length of time your poinsettia will give you enjoyment will depend on the maturity of the plant, where you buy it, and how you treat if after you bring it home. The usual life expectation for poinsettia blooms is from two to four weeks</p>
        <p>The florist has grown the plant in a gi*eenhouse at temperatures of 60 degrees to 70 degrees F., with high humidity and maximum sunlight. Because of this, you want to place the plant in the sunniest possible position but avoid temperature fluc-tations and drafts (air registers). Water the plant whenever the soil looks and feels dry. making sure the soil is wet</p>
        <p>to the bottom of the pot. Discard all excess water to keep the plant from drowning.</p>
