Pitt County Commissioners yesterday afternoon approved awarding the general contract for construction of the new mental health center to M. E. Perry Construction Co. after the low bidder on the project declined to execute the contract.
The Perry firm was the second law bidder for the general construction con tract, with a bid of $325,000. The Kinsey firm submitted a, bid of $264,847 last month, but told the board that there was an error in its figures. The bid should have been $53,178 higher, Hoyt S. Kinsey said.
Attorneys for Kinsey termed the error an inadvertent omission of one of the component sub-bids which produced the error, of some 20 per cent of the total bid.
Commissioners, discussing the possible forfeiture of the bid bond posted by the Kinsey
firmsome $13,242Indic
ated they would follow state policy regarding attempts to collect the bid bond.
County Attorney W. W. Speight said sp<Aesmen for the N.C. Attorney Generals office indicated that in other instances, where a material error had been made on the part of a bidder, and that error had beei^ reported to the govemmenti^ units in volved, the state has not sought the forfeiture of the bid bonds.
Conunissioners, who took no action on the matter yesterday, requested Cameron Dudley qf Dudley and Shoe, architect for the 12,000 square foot Ixiilding, to attempt to verify that one of the totals on one of Kinseys component sub-bid sheets was not carried forward and included in the firms bid for the project.

HIGHER SHELTER FEES?
I understand that one pwtion of the new animal ordinance for the City (A Greenville to be discussed at the March 6 City Council meeting will double fees at the animal shelter. Is this true ? L. W.
As the proposal, and its only that until the Council approves it, is now written, fees will be increased, Inspections Department Director Alton Warren said. Fees for getting (Mies d<^ out of the shelter would be increaseid from $5 to $10, and $5 will be added for each additional time the dog is picked up. This feature, if approved, hopefully will provide strong deterrent against violations of the ordinance, which leads to the dogs being picked up at aU.
Boarding fees will be increased from $1 to $2 a day, in order to cover more of the costs involved.
An animal control program ccNild never support itself, but increasing costs to violators of, the laws ccmceming pets hopefully will remove | some of the burden from the taxpayers. All thei cities weve checked with have fees higher than these and veterinarians certainly have higher' boarding fees, Warren said.
Speight noted, saying again that state officials have ruled that if it is a legitimate error . . . mistake . . . no action is taken to collect the bond.
Commissioners heard a request from Bethel Mayor James Dupree that the county share in the cost of preparing a 201 Facilities Plan a sewage system plan-^or the Bethel area.
Vernon Morton of Wilson, a representative of the engineering firm under contract to do the Bethel study, told Commissioners that 75 per cent of the $15,000 study will be paid with federal funds while the remaining 25 per cent of the
cost will be shared by state and local governments.
Noting that the states share is $1,875 and the local share is a similar amount, Morton asked commissioners to appropriate^ $347.85 to the project, based on the number of persons living outside the Bethel town limits but within the project area.
Morton noted that the study also includes the town of Parmele and portions of Martin, and Edgecombe Counties.
Morton also asked the board to participate in the cost of a 201 Facilities plan for the town of Fountain. Pitts share of that project, Morton told .the board, would
be $322.41, based on population.
Commissioners, who in the past have not participated in the cost of such plans for other communities in the county, took no action on the requests, but agreed to give the matter further study.
Dupree pointed out that what youve done for other communities has no bearing on this.
In addition to hearing reports from^various county departments and agencies. Commissioners named Ed Davenport of Farmville to the Sheppard Memorial Library Board, replacing Ott Alford, whose term has expired.

WASHINGTON (AP) President Ford, poised to veto legislation suspending his oil tariff increases, told a group of freshmen congressmen today he would have a surprise later in the day in moves to reach a compromise energy program.
Ford gave the group of 70 new Democratic con^essmen no clear hint of his planned action, but White House sources indicated he would defer for 60 days tie second and third dollars of the controversial tariff increases.
Rep. Timothy Wirth of Colorado emerged from a two-hour breakfast meeting between Ford and the congressmen and told reporter^ the President said he w^d have a surprise later in the day.
White House sources indicated Ford would annoimce a postponement in his tariff increases perhaps at the same time he vetoes a bill the Democrats pushed through Congress to delay the entire tariff program.
It was thought that by offering to postpone part of the tariff program. Ford might gain enough votes in the Senate to sustain his veto.
These sources indicate the President would delay for 60 days two scheduled monthly $1-a-barrel tariff hikes and his plan to remove price controls on domestic crude oil April 1.
These sources indicate the President would delay for 60 days the March and April increments of $1 a barrel each in his tariff hikes and his plan to remove price controls on domestic crude oil April 1. The March increment has been in effect for four days.
Offices
Moved
The Greenville Chamber of Commerce and Merchants Association has moved its operations to 308 Raleigh Aye.
According to Harold Creech, manager of the Chamber, the move was made in an effort to give better service to it# members and to the Greenville area.
The new quarters, previously occupied by Chapin Construction Company, provides the Chamber with private offices for development, promotion and service activities. There is ample space for credit reporting activities, a large room foi cdmmittee meetings, a lounge, reception room and storage space.
Creech said there was also convenient parking which will enable the members to visit the Chamber or attend committee meetings more easily.
We are confident we will be able to do a much better job in these new quarters, Creech emphasized.
Many Democrats have opposed both the tariff increase and the end of oil price controls. Those two measures would increase the consumer price of petroleum products.
The Democratic alternatives, led by an increase of at least five cents a gallon in the foiu'-cent gasoline tax, also would raise consumer prices.
Both Fords and the Democrats plans are designed to reduce consumption of imported oil, but the Democrats claim that Fords proposals would do so in a way that would aggravate the economic recession.
By granting the 60-day delay, the White House would be acceding to Democratic insistence that the administration allow time for Congress to develop an energy program. At the same time. Ford would be taking the edge off the drive to override his veto.
The veto vote will come regardless of whether Ford defers the second and third stages of his tariff hikes.
The delaying bill passed the House last month by a 309 to 114 margin.
Congressional Democrats
thus far have produced two energy plans designed to serve as alternatives to Fords plan.
The Democratic leadership in the House and Senate has called for a gasoline tax increase of five cents a gallon; the creation of an independent agency with a standby authority for oil iftiport quotas; ^d tax incentives to encourage the purchase of autos with high fuel efficiency.
The second program, announced over the weekend by Rep. A1 Ullman, D-Or., chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, calls for a gradual tax hike of 40 cents a gallon, with a tax refund covering a certain basic amoimt of fuel; and the gradual imposition of oil import quotas as economic conditions permit.
The Ford administrations reaction to the Ullman plan has generally been more favorable than it was to the other plan offered by the Democratic lead-/ ership. That program was assailed as vague and too weak while the White House said Ullmans plan provided the basis for discussion.
VEPCO Asks Rate Hike Be 'Permanent'
RICHMOND, Va. (AP)-The Virginia Electric & Power Co., has asked that a $97.7 million emergency rate increase be made permanent and that $39.5 million be tacked on to it.
The proposed increase, contained in an application, filed .with the state Corporation Commission Monday, would boost the average residential electric bill about 30 per cent over what it was a year ago.
If the full aniount is granted following an > SCC' hearing
scheduled to begin April 21, it would bring Vepcos total rate increases in Virginia since January 1974 to $184 million.
The company is asking that the new rates become effective May 1.
The additional rate relief requested today is essential if the company is to be able to persuade investors to put up their funds for the construction needed for reliable electric service to Virginians in the years ahead, said Vepco President T. Justin Moore, Jr.
If the full request is approved, a residential customer using 750 kilowatt hours a month in May would pay a bill of $29.57, an increase of 72 cents over what he would be paying without the additional $39.5 mil lion.
In May, 1974, a residential customer using 750 kilowatt hours of electricity paid a bill of $22.83.
During the summer months when rates are higher to cope with peak loads, a bill under the proposed rates would jump to $31.75.
Company officials conceded, however, this these figures are based on fossil fuel costs remaining stable. They said the 72-cents increase could conceivably jump to $1.50 per month, depending on conditions.
In addition to the $39.5 million increase over cirrent revenues, the utility is asking for a four-year surcharge to reduce the lag time in the operation oT its fuel adjustment clause and a 1 per cent late payment charge.
The fuel adjustment sur-ch^ge would bring in an additional $10 million annually whUe the late payment charge would produce some $1.6 million a year.
In its April hearing, the SCC will not only determine the merits of the new increase requested but wUl reach a decision on whether the emergency increase was just and reasonable.
In the unlikely event the commission determined that the emergency surcharge was excessive, Vepco would have to make refunds to ite customers at an 8 per cent annual interest rate.

Policy Changes By Housing Authority
By TOM BAINES Reflector Staff Writer The Housing Authority last night adopted an amendment to the agencys personnel policies to provide for additional accrual of vacation time and unlimited accumulation of sick leave.
The amendment, which brings the Housing Authority in conformance with the city, ,)rovides for employees to accrue vacation leave time following five, ten and 20 years of service with the Authority.
Under the old policy, one earned vacation day per month or 12 days per year was allowed. Under the new program, following completion of five years of service, the employee will be able to accrue 15 earned vacation days per year. Following completion of ten years service, 18 days of accrued vacation is allowable and after 20 years with the Authority, 21 earned vacation
Hearing Today On Simpson Bid
RALEIGHThe Municipal
Board of Control is holding a public hearing at 3:30 p.m. today on a petition to establish Simpson as a village.
The hearing will be in the conference room of the Department of the Treasury in the Albemarle Building.
Residence of the Simpson community have, for the past several months, been attempting to incorporate the area as a village. If successful, the community would be in line to receive Powell Bill funds for street improvements, a share of the one per cent sales tax collected in Pitt, and other benefts which residents say would help improve living conditior in Simpson.
days are permitted per year.
The amendment also provides for the employee to be able to earn one day sick leave per calendar month or 12 days annually. Ten days annually were allowed under the old system. The new policy now provides for unlimited accumulation of sick leave during the service tenure of the employee. Formerly, a 30-day limit on accumulation applied to sick leave.
In effect immediately, the amended version allows the employee to accumulate sick leave and eventually either gain an early retirement or have the accumulated leave time cr-sdited to his length of service.
Executive director Joe Laney, reporting on the status of the proposed N.C. 22-5 housing project, told commissioners that word has been received from the Greensboro office of Housing and Urban Development that the revised development plan reflecting a decrease of five imits from the proposed 122 units has been reviewed by Greensboro and forwarded to Atlanta for action.
Laney said that word is expected soon on HUDs approval of the amendment to the annual contributions contract for the housing project, tentatively proposed for construction in the Meadowbrook area.
Four units were vacant out of the 531 under management by the Authority during February, it was reported by Mrs. Sallye C. Streeter, director of tenant affairs.
Mrs. Streeter said that monthly rent averages in the five housing projects included: N.C. 22-1
(Meadowbrook), $49.83; N.C. 22-2 (Kearney Fark), $53.01; N.C. 22-3 (Moyewood), $53.23; N.C. 22-4 (Moyewood), $54.95; and
N.C. 22-6 (Newtown), $49.54.
The director of tenant affairs reported that she attended a rental and occupancy workshop last week in Fayetteville and many subjects that actually apply to the local operation were discussed, including policies, model lease requirements and grievance procedures. Mrs. Streeter pointed out that the 1974 Housing Act was also on the agenda.
Commissioners scheduled a workshop session to discuss po.ssible amendments to the Authoritys pay plan in order to bring the plan up to date with the citys schedule. The workshop will be held Wednesday at 3 p.m.
Laney displayed an engraved plaque that was presented recently to Mrs. Streeter following her completion of ten years service with the Authority. Mrs. Streeter celebrated her ten-year anniversary with the agency on Feb. 8. Com-missioners congratulated her (Continued on page 6)

Heavy Cost Overruns^ in TVA Plant Construction
WASHINGTON (AP)-Cost overruns of almost $1.2 billion on turrent construction projects have been estimated by the Tennessee Valley Authority, ac cording to a General Accounting Office study.
The cost on new plant constructions are currently increasing at the cost of 25 per cent plus per year, said TVA representative Larry Calvert.
The studies have borne out that this is going on all across
the country. Theyre just going out of sight for a whole variety of reasons, all related to the inflationary spiral.
The GAO study, released last week, was requested by Congress for an annual review of

My customers like the new products and its more profit for us, said Bill Hawkins, for 36 years a home deliveryman for Seal test.

In 1%2, Harbisons maintained 3(X) routes; now its down to 45.
Joe SoUy, 56, a Harbison driver-salesman for 27 years, figures the consolidation of routes to serve a larger geographic area has hurt him because he often arrives before the customer is awake or after he has left for work.
That means Ive lost personal contact with my customers, he explained, I cant sell my products if I dont see the people ... and I usually like to push Mrs. Smiths pies and our hand lotion.
Jim Riley, vice president for home delivery at Abbotts Dairies, terms the addition of nondairy items a move to increase volume per route. We feel that we are now a convenience store on wheels. And we definitely have a future.
Riley said the program really started to grow in 1%7 for Abbotts, which pioneered it. He said the sale of items other than milk covers 20 per cent of Abbotts revenue.
Its helping carry the load of home delivery, Riley added.
Bechtel Dairy in suburban Montgomery County was the only milk firm contacted in the Philadelphia area which does not offer nondairy items on its routes.
Our prime function is still the sale of dairy products, said Vice President Robert Bechtel. And, knock on wood, we are growing continually.
federal cost overruns.
TVA cost overruns at 12 construction projects total $1.7 billion, about 43 per cent over the TVAs original budget estimates of $2.7 billion, the study said.
The major part of the TVA overruns are for two nuclear power plants, the Sequoyah plant near Chattanooga, Tenn., and the Browns Ferry plant in North Alabama.
Sequoyah was expected to cost $336 million in 1960, but the GXo estimated a 93 per cent cost overrun, bringing the total cost to $650 million.
In 1968, TVA expected Browns Ferry to cost $392 million, but the GAO computed a 91 per cent cost overrun totaling $750 million.
In computing the cost overruns, the GAO used a 1974 budget estimate for Sequoyah and a 1973 budget figure for the Browns Ferry plant.
In its current budget, the TVA listed increased costs of $675 million for Sequoyah and $815 million for Browns Ferry.
The GAO listed no cost overrun for TVAs huge planned nuclear power plant near Hart-sville, Tenn. The accounting office listed a 1973 budget figure of $1.5 billion and made no revised estimate.
On several nuclear plants, there were things built under existing guidelines, and then the guidelines would change, Calvert said, explaining the overruns. Sometimes youd actually have to tear otit steel and concrete and start over. You can imagine what that does to construction costs. Calvert also said that the size of cost overruns increases during inflationary times the longer a construction project lasts.
The longer ago the original cost estimate was made, the larger the increase. As time goes on, you obviously crank in more of the inflationary. fi|C-tors.
Other TVA projects listed by the GAO with cost overruns of 40 per cent and the current TVA budget estimates were: -Bear Creek Water Constrol System, North Alabama, 76 per cent overrun, $54 million.
-Normandy Dam and Reservoir, Tennessee, 49 per cent overrun, $35 million.
-Tellico Dam, 60 per cent overrun, $100 million.
-Watts Bar Nuclear Plant, 40 per cent overrun, $805 million.

King Of America's Gypsies Is Buried According To Tradition
By JOE FRAZIER Associated Press Writer
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) Beer sloshed on the granite tomb, coins were tossed inside and a five-piece band pumped out God Bless America and Onward Christian Soldiers.
Clothes, a favorite Stetson hat and personal items were piled on the coffin and the tomb was sealed.
Thus, Steve Marks, king of Americas estimated 250,(XK) Gypsies, was buried Monday. His successor will be chosen from among Gypsy state kings within a few weeks.
Marks, 64, died Wednesday in Wichita, Kan. His body was shipped to Portland for entombment in Rose City Cemetery, one of two large Gypsy burial places on the West Coast. The other is in Los Angeles.
Thousands of Gypsies had been expected for the three-day wake and funeral, but a dispute broke out among the Gypsy families when a complaint charging four Portland funeral homes with racial discrimination was filed with the Oregon Bureau of Labor.
Family members said the funeral homes refused to accept the body.
We offered them money you wouldnt believe, said James Marks II of Spokane, Wash., a great-nephew of the late king and a senator in the Gypsy nation. One of them told me the only way we would get a funeral home in this city was to buy it.
Explaining the controversy among Gypsy families, Marks said Gypsies arent supposed to look beyond their own people to
solve their problems. He said some families felt the complaint represented a break with tradition and they boycotted the funeral.
A three day wake, with round-the-clock eating and drinking, would have taken place in the funeral home that took the body.
But it was moved to a private meeting hall where about 400 stood or sat by the open coffin eating and drinking until final services in Portlands tiny Orthodox Chui-ch.
In spite of the rift, most Gypsy funeral traditions were followed. Women poured water behind the hearse to cleanse
the path, but otherwise they stayed in the background and never touched the casket.
Marks described the wake as a bribe to Gypsies already in heaven. *
We assume our king did something wrong, because he died, Marks explained.
But at the wake, the Gypsies in heaven will look down and say, He must have been a good man, a rich man, looj at the party he is giving us. We eat and drink ourselves, but it really is for them.
What we really are doing is bribing them. They will say, Come on in, let him in, he is a good man, a rich man.

Chaplin Will Meet Queen
LONDON (AP) Charlie Chapjin goes to Buckingham Palace today to be dubbed Sir Charles by (^ueen Elizabeth II.
I will walk to the queen to receive my knighthood, said the 85-year-old film master who has used a wheelchair on occasion recently.
A master of comedy and pathos who wrote, produced and directed his films, Chaplin told friends he didnt know what he would say to the queen.
1 am thrilled and excited, but I have not prepared a script and I have not rehearsed anything, he said.
Chaplin and his wife Oona came to London last Saturday from their home in Switzerland and planned to stay for at least a week.
The British Broadcasting Corp. is celebrating Chaplins investiture with a television showing of The Great Dictator, the film in which he played Hitler and Jack Oakie played Mussolini.
Another old veteran on the New Years list, author P. G. Wodehouse, died on Feb. 14, be fore he was incested with the honorary knighthood awarded him. He was 93.
WASHINGTON (AP) American farmers would face an average annual increase of more than $1,000 in what they pay for fuel costs under administration energy proposals, a Library of Congress study predicts.
The farm-fuel study was based on an earlier economic model the librarys staff prepared. It projected that President Fords energy program would cost the public $50 billion rather than the $30 billion the administration predicted.
The projected increases in the prices farmers pay for Mrs. HeJ)ert M.j,,gasoline, motor oil, machine of 306 Granville grease, electricty and hired transportation range from $1,-236 for the average beef-cattle farm to $855 for the average hog farm. The new increases could have about the same cost impact as increases have had since 1971, Sen. Walter F. Mndale, D-Minn., said in releasing highlights of the study.
The analysis assumes that gasoline costs will increase by 15 cents a gallon if the Ford plan is adopted.

The program will be held at Jarvis Memorial United Methodist Church from 24 p.m.
The public is invited to attend.
CITY FARMS
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -Although San Francisco is densely populated and occupies only 45 square miles, there are still two thriving farms within the city limits.
But, the librarys economists said, if higher fuel prices were achieved through levying of a federal gasoline tax which could be refunded for nonhighway use, the increase could be eliminated for farmers.
The agricultural projections do not reflect potential further price increases for natural gas or fertilizer.

Bad Ads Just A Habit Says Owner Of Advertising Agency
The DUy Reflector, Greenville, N.C.Tnetdey, March 4, IffSI
Hats For All Moods
IF YOU LIKE HATS, WEAR EM, no matter how dressy or casual the situation. Cornelia Sharpe, whose high fashion modeling came before her starring role in The Reincarnation of Peter Proud, chose a hat wardrobe from these varied styles, clockwise from top left: A giant pattern weave straw, accented with the new lower crown and gently dipping front brim, an ideal tailored occasion look. Featherweight crocheted straw cap, accented with bright grosgrain banding at the crown. Flip brim pull down of pastel glazed cotton, for moments of super casual fun. Clean, cool look (and it hides the hair) comes in a draped kerchief of polka dot cotton. ,

AP Newsfeatures Writer "new YORK (AP) Advertisements that we read in newspapers and magazines, see on TV and hear on radio are about 70 per cent doing less than they should be in depicting womens roles, believes Helene Mahoney, who has her own advertising agency.
Ad agencies and manufacturers of consumer products arent hostile to women, in Miss Mahoneys view. Theyre just victims of habit. If a manufacturer has used the same ad agency for 10 years with a few variations on one basic approach, they just keep on with it because its safe.
But like changing a bad habit in your spouse, your children or yourself, she says that youve got to keep reminding that the habit is bad and finally itll get changed.
One > change is coming as more and more women create the ads. Miss Mahoney heard one on the radio in which an airline, addressing itself to secretaries, said it would take
good care of your boss, do this for HIM and that for HIM. Miss Mahoney said she told her husband, who works for the government, that a woman would never have written such copy.
Also, Miss Mahoney said, persons who find certain ads insulting to women are writing to the National Advertising Review Board. The board is set up as an in-industry police force to keep advertising claims truthful. It doesnt tell advertisers how to portray women but, she says, if it gets a lot of complaint letters about the same ad, it takes notice and tells the offending advertiser.
Miss Mahoney had thought that 1975 would be a big breakthrough year for betterment of womens roles as seen through ads, but she thinks now that it wont be, because of the economy. Inslfead of new and better ads, she says, some manufacturers are saving money and rerunning successful ads from the past.
One change that she expects, in new ads, is more glamour.
Instead of a TV commercial of a woman standing as if shed been scrubbing floors all day, checking out how well she did with her mop and product X, Miss Mahoney envisions a woman getting out of a car with a briefcase, coming into a kitchen with a dingy floor and exclaiming that company is coming and shed better get busy with the mop and product X. In the next scene, the woman will be dressed for the party, guests will be arriving and the floor will be shining.
Showing a man pushing a mop could be okay, too. Miss Mahoney said. Perhaps a couple could say theyre giving a party, divide the preparatory work and he could be the one pushing the floor-cleaning product. What could be wrong with sharing the work? It makes him look good in a womans eyes.
People will identify with good things. And we'all have a certain amount of fantasy. We identify with something attractive. I think manufacturers real-that women will identify
with a product that is promoted attractively instead of one that makes her look like a drudge. Theres no way, really. Miss Mahoney admits, that a person can watch TV commercials for detergents, say, and from that go unerringly out and buy the absolutely best one. The TV viewer probably already has one or more favorite detergents. The ad agencys job. Miss Mahoney says, is to come up with a commercial which will charm the viewer into buying a detergent not previously ever tried. After that whether or not the person buys that brand again its up to the product and its price and effectiveness compared with the products the buyer already knows.

By VIVIAN BROWN AP Newsfeatures Writer Winter is the ideal time to review the exterior decoration of your house with spring improvements in mind.

PRAYER OF A WOMAN WHO IS AT HOME ALONE WITH A KNOWN MOUSE IN THE HOUSE.
Dear Heavenly Father: Thou art probably" wondering why I am sitting here in the middle of the coffee table with an electric broom in my hand.
The simple truth is. Lord, that yesterday as I sat meditating on Your goodness, a 15-pound, full-grown mouse with vengeful eyes, who had not eaten since birth, invaded my kitchen.
I know not for what reason I am being punished. Father, but could we talk about it?
As You well know, I am not one of the most stable persons in Your flock. (You will remember how the dead water bug in the sink trap who charged me, put me to bed with a migraine for a week?) That js why I was unprepared when You sent me this 40-pound monster that stalked along the wall lusting to satisfy his craving for human flesh.
Im sorry I said Ruth Swampfox was such a lousy cook she sliced cheese against the grain and it came out tough. That wasnt very charitable.
Im sorry for putting th bathroom scales on the carpe weighing myself, j^d telling everyone I dropped %ve pounds in a week. That was dishonest.
Im sorry to pretend I dont hear the children calling when I am in the bathroom eating

Thats greedy,
Im sorry I let my husband chew the kids out for not taking down a phone message when I remember wrapping my gum in it. Thats cowardly. (If this isnt enough. Ive got more.)
Im a weak person. Lord, but do I deserve a prehistoric rodent with fangs who leaps and bounds from one wall to the next looking for a throat to bite?
Believe me. Lord, when I tell You, You are the last one to whom I can turn. When I talked to my husbahd he laughed. Right out loud. (One more joyful noise to You and Im going to have him committed.) He said to me, Do you mean to say that a two-ounce mouse that is one-third the
to the landscape. Should any of these things be screened out with trees, bushes, other plantings? You may need to purchase older plantings that can serve as screens in the immediate future, but the cost should be viewed as a long-term investment.

some bushes that needed only ruthless pruning. Two cedar trees that were keeping sunlight from the dining area were earmarked for removal because the family used the room for breakfast and it seemed dreary. They decided they couldnt be sentimental about it. They replaced the trees with rhododendron.
Some people have the problem in reverse plantings havent grown as they had anticipated, and sometimes all the plants grow out of the balance that they had envisioned when they planned the plot. If plants are put in willy-nilly, you cant always tell how they will look in relation to one another when they grow. Experts should be consulted about any plants bought to use around the house.
On noisy streets, some plah-tings hedges, bushes, trees could be denser. But density need not look like uncultivated brush.
After you decide on the symmetry you might need, a visit to a nurseryman with before and after pictures can enlist knowledgeable advice. After all, youll want to know how tall the plants youve sketched in the photograph will go, how soon and so on. For example, it may seem like ah utter waste to plant white pine, spruce or fir six feet apart so they can be
good choices, depending on the soil.
...On the north side of the house, fast growing trees could serve as a windbreak against north winds that keep the furnace jogging.
...Make plans to plant trees where misplaced screened porches or decks get the full brunt of the afternoon sun.
...Rock gardens can emerge from unsightly mounds. Plan to dig them out to see if you can expose enough rocks to make a little garden. Make a notation of plants that would grow in that area. If you get an early start you could grow the seed in flats, bringing down the cost of the plants.
If you have a good level stretch of land at the back of your house, you should not make the mistake of disturbing it with an assortment of bushes or trees except at the per
imeter. Put all your efforts into a lush lawn with a spectacular tree, perhaps a Japanese cherry, at the end, and with a border of bushes, flowers and ground covers at the sides.
A flat lawn can be a real joy. Nurtured, it can be kept in shape for croquet, paddle tennis and entertaining.

During the ritual ceremonies, the Greenville WOTM members conducted the Endowment Fund collection for Mooseheart, the child city operated by the Loyal Order of Moose.
Mrs. Peggy Jamieson, senior regent, spoke to the rally on the health program at Mooseheart.
A special feature of the rally was the presentation March when the participating chapters contributed to the furnishings and maintenance fund for the Mooseheart Health Center. The center, dedicated June 23, 1974, was made possible by funds given by the Women of the Moose.
Highlight of the rally was the Parade of Sponsors. Each coworker who sponsored two or more new members during the current year participated.
Fallowing the program, a social hour was held and refreshments were served by the hostess chapter. The Greenville chapter was represented by 31 co-workers. Other chapters invited were Goldsboro, Kinston, and Snow Hill.

DEAR ABBY; My husband got very upset with me yesterday because 1 served him his breakfast in my nightgown and bathrobe, which I had never done before.
I couldnt help it, Abby. I usually get dressed and all prettied up to serve him his breakfast, but the baby had a bad cold and 1 was up half the night with her, and I was so tired I could hardly get out of bed in the morning. When I tried to explain this to my husband, he wouldnt listen. He carried on about how his mother always got dressed up in the morning, and he didnt want me to start developing any sloppy habits.
Did I commit such a crime, Abby? I don't intend to make a habit of it. BONE TIRED
DEAR TIRED: A crime? Certainly not. The next time your baby needs attention during the night, wake your husband and ask him to please take over so you can get your rest. That way you II be able to dress and get all prettied up to serve him breakfast.

She says that mens worries on that point seem, in general, to have faded.

But some 15 years ago when she started, as a copy writer in a large agency, things were different. The stuff I was banging out on the typewriter was doing well with the client. 1 signed what I wrote with a number, not a name. The agency didnt want the client to know it was written by a wom-

DEAR ABBY: Our son (Ill call him Bob) went off to college last fall, and when he came home for the Christmas holidays, he had long hair and a beard. He looked wild because he never combed or brushed, he just went around with that tangled mess of hair.
My husband couldnt stand the sight of the boy, and told him so. Bob said Jesus had long hair and a beard, but my husband wasnt buying any of that. Finally, my husband offered Bob $500 cash if hfe would get a short haircut and a shave. Bob agreed without an argument, and everybody was happy.
Last weekend. Bob came home unexpectedly and it was plain that he had let his hair and beard grow again. Father was furious and demanded that Bob give back the $500. Bob said he upheld his end of the bargain by,getting a shave and a haircut, but he didnt agree to keep it that way for life
I am in the middle. Where do you stand?

More Medical Service Funds
Still another federal grant will help improve the vast complex of medical services which is building in the area west of Greenville.
Congressman Walter Jones last week announced a $140,000 grant for expanding and r^ovating the Pitt County Community Health Department building.
The funds will be used to add approximately 5,000 feet to the 15,000 feet already existing in the building.
The local health department is a Model Health Department and since the arrival of its director Roger Barnaby the staff has increased from 32 to 62.
Some mobile units are being used now to furnish services, and the improvements will provide permanent facilities for some of these services.
The Pitt County Community Health Department is providing ever increasing services to local

citizens, and it certainly needs the improved facilities which the grant funds will provide.
The construction will be one of many health related projects now underway in the West Greenville area. The new Pitt Memorial Hospital is under construction along with the rehabilitation center. A new Mental Health center is under construction. The Alcoholic Rehabilitation Center is in operation. Soon the ECU medical school will be built in the general area. Also located there is a nursing home and medical offices for many private practice physicians.
It is fitting that the Health Department will get facilities which are more suitable to the services it will be offering. It is one more development that will make the area west of the city one of the uniqu* : medical complexes of the nation.
Local Decisions Required?
By ^ILL NOBLITT RALEGH-Are local officialsschool superintendents, school board
members, and county
commissionersbetter able to make basic decisions about local school operations than are officials isolated in Raleigh?
They are, a management review of public schools in North Carolina concludes, but exercising that responsibility is often hamstrung by conflicting and confusing directives from laws and funds passed on by the General Assembly or the Stat^Department of Public Instruction.
Clearly rejecting the idea of totally autonomous local school systems, the report hammered out by a
legislative staff team
nonetheless pinpoints a
variety of areas in which local responsibility ought to prevail, and in which state control hampers local decision-making.
PolicyShift Ideally, the state role would be to provide money, spell out the intent and purpose of schools (whether formulated by the General Assembly, the
State Board of Education, or the superintendent) and then hold local schools accountable for doing the job. That central theme runs through the voluminous report delivered to the General Assembly recently.
State Superintendent A. Craig Phillips is credited in the report of the legislative investigation with moving strongly in the desired direction; The 1969 change in administration wrought major changes in the development of education* policy that was focused on service to local school districts, rather than regulatory functions solely .. that change is both recognized and appreciated by many local educators. A major finding of the public school probe is that The State Superintendent heads a competent staff. Their emphases on student learning, local planning, and regionalization of state services are sound. These can be effective vehicles enabling the General Assembly, state, and local education agencies, parents and citizens to work together to improve the quality of public school education.
Phillips himself has often spoken out on the need for more local responsibility, and has stumped hard for changes in the legislative processparticularly the practice of categorical fundingwhich impede that local control.
In a recent interview Phillips stressed his interest in providing maximum flexibility to local educators, but worried that many simply will not accept the freedom provided.
Problem Areas The legislative report also found problem areas; Some (local schools) seldom call on the State Department of Public Instruction and so do not use materials sent them. Reasons vary. Large school' systems feel capable of developing their own curriculum and do so. Some systems do not agree with the new (state) curriculum and reject it. Others have personality clashes with (state) personnel and so do not request services.
An overview of the many recommendations contained in the legislative investigation shows the possibility of a basic
philosophy of state-local relationships in education emerging;
State legislation by the General Assembly, actions of the State Board of Education, and activities of central staff are sometimes at odds with one another, and restrictive to sound educational operations by local school units and state personnel.
In summary, the various findings and recommendations lead legislative staff members to conclude; the General Assembly should, Specify by legislative intent the objectives which the State Board of Education and Local Education Agencies should accomplish in the education of North Carolina children. Permit greater flexibility in the methods used to achieve those objectives. Hold them accountable both for educational results and the wise use of fiscal resources.
A wide array of legislative suggestions are outlined in the report, some of which may produce action by the General Assembly shortly; others will likely be studied and drawn on for future guidance.
The INSIDE REPORT
The Warning From Assad
By ROWLAND EVANS and ROBERT NOVAK DAMASCUS - Using diplomatic language. President Hafez Assad of Syria is warning the U.S. to drop pursuing what he calls its main line of diplomacy in the Middle East to split Arab ranks.
Underlying this warning are two political facts; unstated nervousness and frustration here at the prospect of Israel dealing with Egypt but not with Syria and the Palestinians; and hard determination to stymie any such American move.
When someone seeks to split the Arabs by separate moves, the result will be to block all roads to peace, Assad told us in an exclusive interview in the modest presidential palace here. He spoke calmly, with no trace of flamboyance or truculence.
As a leader of pan-Arabism, Assad carefully avoided any hints that Egypt or any Arab state should
reject the return of its territory by Israel in the interest pf Arab unity, or until Israel also agrees to settle the matter of the Syrian Golan Heights and the Israeli-occupid Palestinian West Bank.
But the prospect of a second-stage Israeli withdrawal from the Sinai with no assurance of similar withdrawals from Golan or the West Bank of the Jordan River is deeply disturbing to Assad. He told us no Arab leader feels lesi^ strongly.
Arab movements to peace cant be individual, separate or splitting, he said, a point he has tried to hammer home to Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in at least two private talks. When we asked what, then, would happen if a major Israeli withdrawal is arranged from Sinai without guarantees for Syria and the Palestinian West Bank, Assad hedged. That would depend on the merits of Uw case, he said, but addec

somewhat ominously; if the U.S. seemed determined at the point to be pushing a separate Egyptian-Israeli deal, the road to peace will be blocked and Geneva (the forthcoming Geneva conference) will not lead to any results.
No private assurances have been asked or given between Assad and President Sadat of Egypt on this crucial point. But Assad claimed Sadats total agreement on what he called this basic principle. The matter is so fundamental and mutual, he told us, no discussion is necessary.
Speaking slowly, with careful choice of words and slashes of humor, Syrias strong-man president flatly refused to make any direct criticism of Kissinger himself, with whom he has established a close rapport. Instead, he repeatedly referred to American diplomacy as plotting a policy of splitting Israels main antagonists.
He was also careful to say nothing critical about the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) but he defended with seemingly faint priase PLO chief Yasir Arafats United Nations speech calling for a unified Palestine composed of Arabs, Jews and Christians
meaning the end of Israel as a separate state.
The contradiction between Arafat and Assad on Israels future is vivid. Assad has already stated that once Israel withdraws from Arab lands seized in 1967 and agrees to a independent West Bank state, belligerency will automatically end (Isnt that a state of peace? he asked)which means Arab acceptance of Israel as a sovereign state.
But Assad refused to concede that Arafats UN dream of a secular. Jewish-Arab-Chrisitian Palestinian state was a major political blunder which played into Israels hands. The real problem is not Arafats refusal to recognize Israel as a permanent state, he said, but Israels refusal to vacate the West Bank and give the Palestinians a chance to form their own state.
Since Israel displaced tens of thousands of Palestinians from their homes, he said, shouldnt Israel say this first, before the Palestinians?
Creation of a Palestinian state is the crux of any political settlement, the Ford administration must change its position and start political and public con-(Continued on page 5)

Bureaucrats At Bedside
The story comes to me from a group of country doctors out in northwest Oklahoma, on beyond Enid, but it could come from anywhere. The story provides one more example of bureaucracy gone berserk. The doctors fear their small rural hospitals are doomed.
To understand their apprehension, you have to know something of how medicine is practiced in the boondocks. In a typical community, the people* at heavy sacrifice build their own small hospital. The existence of the hospital permits them to attract a handful of doctors who love country practice and accept the rural way of life. The facilities are something less than youd find at Walter Reed in Washington, but they suffice.
These are small in
stitutions. In northwest Oklahoma, they range from 20 beds at Waynoka to 68 at Woodward. To speak of their staff is to put a large image to a small use; The 34-bed hospital at Laverhe has one doctor; Cherokee, Buffalo, and Mooreland have two,- The ten hospitals, with 26 doctors among them, could use 20 doctors more, but country doctors are increasingly hard to come by.
New regulations imposed by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, having to do with Medicare and Medicaid patients, have made a bad situation worse. 'These regulations, demanding that every hospital adopt a Utilization Review Plan, became effective February 1. Dr. B.D. Dotter, at Okeene, says flatly that it is im possible for small rura'
Public Forum
To the editor:
In response to those who believe that the sole solution to the current dog problem is the neutering of animals, I would like to pose a few pertinent questions.
1. How is the neutering of one-year old puppies going to eliminate NOW the problem of older loose dogs and packs that are accustomed to roaming the streets because of owner irresponsibility?
2. Who is going to compel animal owners to have their dogs neutered?
3. What will prevent a neutered dog that is loose from threatening my child at the front door of our home (as happened this morning) and relieving himself on my shrubbery?
4. Will a dog on a lengthy leash or chain or confined in a fenced-in yard bark forever? (I seri(Hisly doubt it)
It is only through the enactment of a 24-hour leash law that owners will be obliged to care properly for their dogs and our streets will be safe for all of our citizens.

hospitals to comply.
In fairness to the people at HEW and Social Security, it should be said that they did not set out to-harass or to destroy the rural institutions. Their dual purpose was to improve the quality of hospital care and to deter abuses of the system. In recent years some doctors and some hospitals have been ripping off the taxpayers by padding their bills or
needlessly prolonging the hospitalization of Medicare-Medicaid patients. The formidable new regulations were thus well-intended, and they may work in institutions of 500 beds with a staff of 100. For a hospital in Watonga, Fairview or Alva, they are woefully unrealistic.
Under the new rules, the admission of a Medicare patient sets off a bureaucratic convulsion. Within two working days, the admission must be reviewed and justified by a staff committee of the hospital composed of two or more physicians. The committee must be broadly representative of the medical staff. No doctor may serve on a review iwmmittee if he has a financial interest in any hospital, or if he has been professionally involved in the care of the patient whose case is being reviewed.
Out in Okeene, Okla., this is fantasy stuff. In the small hospitals of rural America, almost every staff doctor has a financial interest in his local hospital. Typically, in a three-doctor institution, one doctor operates, a second (Continued on page 5)

Victory
By W. DALE NELSON Associated Presi Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - The news media have won a victory in the Supreme Court but have fallen short of getting a ruling that truthful news reports cannot constitute an invasion of privacy.
The court ruled Monday that states may not prohibit broadcasters or newspapers from identifying rape victims who are named in open court or in documents available to the public.
It refused, however, to go as far as news media lawyers had urged it in their appeal from a lower court decision against a Georgia television station.
Most broadcast stations and newspapers do not identify rape victims.
The case marked the first time the court had been asked to rule on a case where an individuals right of privacy conflicted with the medias right to factual reporting.
Attorneys for Cox Broadcasting Corp. urged the court to rule that the freedom of the press guaranteed in the Constitution protects the news media from liability for publishing accurate information.
The court, however, chose narrower groimd.
The name of the rape-murder victim whose identify had been broadcast was taken down by a reporter during an open session of court. During a recess, he verified it by checking copies of the indictments against three youths charged with the fatal assault.
Under these circumstances, said the justices, the father of the girl was not in a positibn to collect damages for invasion of privacy.
The freedom of the press to publish that information appears to us to be of critical importance to our type of government in which the citizenry is the final judge of the proper conduct of public business, Justice Byron R. White wrote for the court.
Having decided the case on_ these grounds, it was not necessary for the court to rule on the broader question. White said.
There was no dissent from the main thrust of the decision, although Justice William H. Rehnquist Jr. dissented on a procedural ground and two justices said the court should have gone farther than it did.

Public Confidence Is Necessary
We are much mistaken when we pretend that Christian doctrinas have no importance or relevance. The English novelist, George Eliot, in Adam Bede puts into the mouth of one of her characters these words; I look at it as if doctrines were life-binding names for your feelings.
This is a perfectly logical and realistic attitude toward Christian doctrine. 'This life jf religion is experience, but Uiis is an experience which we must explain to ourselves.
by Elisha Douglass
By JOHN CUNNIFF AP Business Analyst NEW YORK (AP) The low spirits of the consumer can be raised, perhaps in a surprisingly short time, if people are convinced the government is making the proper economic moves.
'This is the opinion of Lloyd S. Bowles,* president of the U.S. League of Savings Associations, which speaks for most of the savings and loan industry, the nations principal supplier of home mortgages.
Bowles, who also is chairman of the Dallas Federal Sayings and Loan Association, was asked for his view (rf the underlying strengths of the economy during this period of diutress, a period during which the thrift industry was especially hard lut by depletion of its savings accounts.
In his statement, Bowles sou^it to dispel what he be
lieves is a widely held notion that the country is faced by an immiment and overwhelming disaster. The American economy, he said, is much too strong for this to occur.
The truth is, he said, that the economy is not going to collapse in the next 30, 60 or 90 days, or at any time in the foreseeable future. The American people are a hardy, vigorous and disciplined people able to meet and overcome adversity in any form.
The two keys to the solution of the ecmimnic malaise, said Bosles, are; Recognition of the basic strengths which underpin the economy, and confidence of the people that their leaders have, correctly perceived the causes and are moving to eliminate them.
The strengths, he said, were obvious; the best educational system, vast resources, the worlds
highest industrial capacity, the highest standard of living, and a still responsive economic system.
The structure of our economic system gives it the ability to adjust output to the desires and needs of the average consumer. This is our countrys basic strength, he said.
The problem of the economic system in the 1970s, He continued, has not been the system itself, but a lack of direction and understanding about the nature of the crisis we face.
The misunderstanding is best illustrated, he said, by the continuing debate about which is the worse problem inflation or recessioa This debate is astraiishing and distressing in light of ^the fact that every American family knows that inflation is resp(msible for our current recessimi, he said.
Even the most casual
study of the Consumer Price Index makes it clear American families are spending an ever increasing percentage of their incomes for food to feed their families, for gasoline and other energy to heat and light homes.
As a consequence, there is less discreti(Hiary spending for new automobiles, housing or appliances. This decline in the ability to buy so-called, hard goods is at the heart (rf our present inflationary recession.
Bowles was critical of business and government leaders who fail to discern the interrelationship between inflation and recession, and their refusal to give eqpial attention to both [Hoblems. This, he said,> is one principal reason the American pe<^le are confused and demix-alized, and why their c(mfidence in the future (rf the economy is at a. low ebb.
Ex-SheriffIs Indicted
GREENSBORO (AP) Charles T. Speer, 51, a former. Yadkin County sheriff, was placed under $15,000 bond Monday after he had been indicted on a charge of perjury.
Dist. Atty. Ray Alexander said the charge grew out of testimony, given by Speer in state District Court here Feb. 18. Speer testified that Bobby Junior Oldham was in the Yadkin County Jail on Jan. 12, 1974, the date Oldham was charged with
resenting himself as an em-! ploye of Bobs Mobile Homes in obtaining two washers and two dryers from Sears Roebuck valued at more than $800.
The Guilford County grand jury cecived the charge against Oldham Monday, and indicted Speer.

Oldham was freed by Judge Edward Washington for insufficient evidence on the false pretense felony charge after a preliminary hearing.
He had been accused or rep-

doctor assists, the third handles anesthesia. They are all professionally involved with the patients, checking at night or on weekends, giving advice, sharing the load.
In such small hospitals, staff members are thus disqualified from review. No other physicians are available. The government says flatly that it will not pay the hospital bills of Medicare-Medicaid patients whose admissions are not reviewed. And the government demands elaborate records.
At the Okeene hospital, compliance will require additional clerical help costing $1,500 a month. Every admission must be justified with written physicians plan of treatment, recent test findings, other supporting material, recent case history, schedule of tests planned. If a diagnosis or proposed treatment is at all unusual, closer professional scrutiny is required.
What is the country doctor to do? Payments under Medicare and Medicaid have become altpost indispensable to a hospitals survival. The busy doctor cannot cope with the paperwork without neglecting his patients; he cannot ignore the paperwork without losing the payments. This is bureaucracy at the bedside; and out in the boondocks, nobody gains.

(Continued from page4)' tacts with the PLO. 1 cannot believe that American diplomacy is not aware of this, Assad told us, if they really want to make progress.
But Assad is singularly lacking in confidence in American diplomacy. The monstrous arming of Israel by' Washington has already blunted Israels own sense of psychological defeat by the Arabs in the 1973 war, he told us. All Arabs are asking why the U.S. throws all its weight on the side of Israel when there is no conflict between the Arabs and America.
All matters that are direct between us and the U.S. are working well, but we cannot understand American backing of Israels expansionist policy.
That may sound strange considering Kissingers success thus far as broker for the return of seized Arab territory but more significantly it hints that Assad and Syria are running out of patience.

argued, as usual, for an absolutist interpretation of the First Amendments guarantee of freedom of expression. He said the amendment bars states from idz$ng d9) for merely discussing public affairs.
In another separate opinion. Justice Lewis F. Powell Jr. argued that truth should be an adequate defense against right-of-privacy suits. Powells opinion relied on a series of decisions by the court in the related fields of libel and privacy.
Laws in South Carolina, Florida and Wisconsin, in additionj to that of Georgia, prohibiting publication of rape victims' names are invalidated by the courts decision.
Although the decision was confined to rape cases, it Is expected ta have a bearing on other right-of-privacy suits based on public documents or proceedings.
Alexanders office is charging that Speer gave false information at the Greensboro hearing; that, as a matter of fact, Oldham was not an inmate of the Yadkin County Jail at the time of the alleged Greensboro offense.
Speer was listed as living at
Rt. 2, East Bend, in Yadkin County. Police said Speer was an employe of the North Carolina Department of Correction in January a year ago.Tool Plant

To Pay For Sex-Change
NEW YORK (AP) The Appellate Division of State Supreme Court has ruled that the city and state departments of Social Services must pay the cost of a mans sex-change operation.
The decision overturned a ruling last March 28 in Kings County State Supreme Court which dismissed the petition for public payment for the sex conversion surgery.
The petitioner was identified in court Monday only as Denise R, a man who said he had been living and working as a female for the last 16 years.
The court, in finding for the petitioner, held that the denial of the application without medical examination was arbitrary and capricious and said there was psychiatric evidence the petitioner was suffering severe psychopa thology.
In his lone dissent. Justice Henry J. Latham said he feared the majority decision would open the door to an inconceivable variety of claims by persons who are frustrated, depressed or cosmetically impaired.
He cited economic statistics to drive home the fact that there is nothing automatic, or predestined about a healthy recovery.
It will take action and it will take well reasoned measures not hidebound by the political doctrine of the political parties of this country.
Jenkins blamed inflation and loss of buying power for a combination of effects.
On top of being pushed into a higher income tax bracket by inflation, our dollar has been shrinking away at a record pace, he said. I think it will take at least the $8-$20 billion tax reduction to turn aroimd the pinch on the workg man.
Jenkins called for a willingness to be flexible in terms of party differences which have traditionally bogged down bills absolutely essential to the nation. He said deep-rooted differences in philosophy must be overcome if we are to win this battle.
We have to live with the reality that we rely upon public t)fficials to decide the basic issues that affect all our lives ' but they cannot decide these issues without the input of millions of citizens like you and me.
If you and 1 will not meet and vote and express ourselves and help make the choices then we might as well admit that politics is merely one of the less popular spectator sports.

Furman Favored In Tournament
GREENVILLE, S.C. (AP) -If William and Mary expects to upset East Carolina in Wednesday nights semifinals of the Southern Conference Basketball Tournament, it better be ready to deal with an all-court press.
The teams meet in the curtain-raiser at 7 p.m., after which host Furman engages upset-minded VMI in the 9 p.m., nightcap. The winners meet for the title and an NCAA berth Thursday at 8 p.m.
East Carolina used the press to' ichish The X^itadel, 78-66, in their meeting in the quarterfinal round, whose four games were played at four different locations for a big boost to gate receipts.
When The Citadel began breathing down the necks of the second-seeded Pirates, the press caused turnover after turnover, and East Carolina collected 11 points at the free throw line in the final five minutes.
If W & M is close or leading in the late stages of its* shot at East Carolina, the third-seeded team can be expected to go to a four-comer offense, in an attempt to hang on to the ball while waiting for a clear chance to score.
East Carolinas Pirates then could be expected to respond with a tight man-for-man de
fense to keep the four-comer offense off balance and cause turnovers.
W & M expects to get its big scoring from Matt Courage, John Lowenhapt and Dennis Vail. Courage is the big rebounder for the Indians.
East Carolina has made a habit of racing off to fast-scor-ing starts, with Gregg Ashora, Robert Gerter and Larry Hunt the front gunners. W & M may have to prepare for a come-from-behind effort if it hopes to get the big upset.
Fourmans high-scoring machine, paced by Clyde Mayes, 7-1 Fessor Moose Leonard and Craig Lynch, is an odds-on favorite to eliminate VMIs Keydets.
Both teams have shown they can make the free throws when the pressure is on in the closing minutes of a game. If VMI can keep the game close to a point at which free throws are the key, it could give Furman a real scare. John Krovic of the Keydets made five ofsix free throws in the final minute-and-a-half of Saturdays upset of fourth-seeded Richmond.
Krovic, Will Bynum and Ronnie Carter are VMIs steady scorers who will be firing against Furmans tall defenders.
NBA Fails To Replace Chief
NEW YORK (AP) 'The National Basketball Associations Selection Committee went back to the drawing board Monday after a meeting failed to produce a candidate to succeed retiring Commissioner Walter Kennedy.
The 61-year-old Kennedy, a member of the four-man Committee, said after the session that another meeting probably would be held within five weeks in another attempt to fill the position he will vacate June 1.
Kennedy, NBA head since Sept. 1, 1963, announced in July, 1973 that he would retire when his five-year contract expires. Since then, through numerous efforts to find a suitable replacement, Kennedy has maintained he will not stay on even if the position has not been filled.

A number of prominent politicians have been reported under consideration, among them Lawrence OBrien, formerly the Postmaster General and chairman of the Democratic National Committee.
If there is no progress in the selection process, or a candidate is not accepted by 14 of the 18 members of the Board of Governors, Simon Gourdine, the leagues deputy commissioner and vice president of administration, would become interim commissioner. The 34-year-old Gourdine is the highest ranking black executive in pro sports.
In other developments, the NBA announced that this seasons playoff money pool would i' a record $950,000an increase of $100,000. It also was announced that the 1975 collegiate player draft would be held by telephone on May 8 and that the' 1975-76 season would start on Oct. 23, six days later than the 1974 season.
Under the new pool, it is possible for a team to win $270,000 if it has the best regular season percentage and wins each round of the playoffs. Last years Boston Celtics won $220,-000, only $5,000 more than the runners-up, the Milwaukee Bucks, who had the best record during the regular season.

Aaron, Brewers Start Work
SUN CITY, Ariz. (AP) -Hank Aaron will be going for his 734th home run and we want him to do it at home, said Manager Del Crandall of the Milwaukee Brewers.
Relax Bowie Kuhn. He was only kidding.
Just like first baseman Mike Hegan was on the opening of the Brewers spring training camp Monday when he said, Now that Hank is here the pressure is off me.
The American League Brewers, current franchise holders in the city where Aaron began his major league career 21 years ago now have baseballs all-time home run leader.
The man who beat Babe Ruths record of 714 early last season with the Atlanta Braves led the National League with a total of 733 homers.
Willie Mays is listed as a coach on the 1975 roster of the New York Mets.

Its just another ball game, Coach Dave Patton said of his Wednesday night meeting with William & Mary in the semifinals of the Southern Conference Tournament.
The Bucs and Indians collide in a 7 p.m. game in the Greenville Auditorium in Greenville, S.C. Furman and Virginia Military Institute meet in the other game Wednesday night.
The two winners will collide on Thursday for the league championship and a berth in the NCAA Tournament in Charlotte the following week. Also at stake is a berth in the Commissioners Tournament next week in LOlsvl, Ky.
Were not treating it as anything special, Patton said of the third meeting between the two teams. Weve just got to go out and play like we want to and|. hustle.
The Indians, however, have given the Pirates the toughest two-game series of those teams downed twice by the Bucs this year. East Carolina won the first meeting, in Minges Coliseum,
68-62, after having nearly a 20-point lead with less than three-minutes to go. Then, in Williamsburg, the Pirates, after Gregg Ashorns 40-foot miracle shot at the end of regulation downed the Indians, 68-66, in the double overtime.
And it was the Indians who dumped the Pirates out of the Southern tournament last year, also in a double overtime, winning 75-67.
In both of the meetings this year, the^Indians, who lead the conference in rebounding, outdid the Bucs in this key area, and that was one of the reasons for the closeness of the two games. Weve got to play good to win, Patton said. They outrqbounded us and we won by playing better, he added.But we need to do the fundamentals of blocking out and get the rebounds through extra hustle.
Even though the game is on a neutral court, Patton' feels that the Indians will have the edge. Those Furman fans are going to be pulling against us, since
Pirates Sign Two Top Stars
East Carolina University 'started the week of the Southern Conference Tournament off with a bang Monday, signing two of the top high schooi payers of the state, Louis Crosby of Shelby and Tyrone Edwards of Pittsboro.
Crosby, a 6-3 forward-guard, averaged 14 points per game this year at Shelby Crest High School, leading his team to the Western North Carolina High School Athletic Associations annual championship tournament. Crest bowed in the semifinals this year, after winning that associations state title the
prwious two years.
Playing under Coach Ed Peeler, Crosby was recently ' named a High Schooi Ail-American. Peeler, incidentally, earlier coached ECU star Larry Hunt, and N.C- State All-America David Thompson.
Edwards, 6-IOV2. has just completed his career at North wood High School in Chatham County, where he averaged 22 points a game, plus 18 rebounds.
Both of these players were highly sought after, and were inked to grants-in-aid by ECU Assistant Coach- George Estes.
Hes going to be a great drawing card, said Crandall, who plans to have Aaron in the lineup opening day April 8 in Boston. A lot of people in American League cities havent seen Hank play.
The manager, a former Milwaukee Braves teammate of Aaron, predicted the superstar would hit 25 to 30 homers as the Brewers designated hitter this season. *
The 41-year-old Aaron, who had 20 homers last year, guessed slightly higher.
As a designated hitter, I should go to bat at least 200 more times than last year. So Id say Im capable of hitting at least 10 or 15 more homers, he said, then went out and slugged two very unofficial homers in his first batting practice as a Brewer.

they know that we have the best chance to beat Furman. But then, weve played good on the road and this will be a help to us.
The Indians like to slow things down, playing for the high percentage shot, hitting the boards hard when they (or their opponent) miss, then spreading it out when they get a little breathing room. They also have used the foul line to good purposes, hitting 19 straight in their win over Davidson in the first round of the tournament Saturday.
Well have to play a good man-to-man and not foul a lot, Pattdrt said. If they spread it out early, it wont hurt since therell be plenty of time to get the ball away from them. But we cant let them get a big lead and then put the ball away. We did do a pretty good job of getting them out of their slowdown up there. But they didnt hit their free throws then, and I dont think we can count on that.
The big man for the Indians is All-Conference guard Ron Satterthwaite, who averaged 17.5 points a game during the year. But their other starters, Gary Byrd, John Lowenhaupt, Dennis Vail and Mike Enoch are all capable of scoring well. Matt Courage, their top sub, also is a potential high scorer.
We cant lay off anyone, or theyll kill us, Patton said. But I dont think the height difference (Vail and Courage both 6-10) will hurt us that much.
Were not really worried about what they do, the coach said. Were worried about what we do.
'The Bucs will be shooting for their 20th win of the year in the game, a goal no other team has reached in the major college era at East Carolina, but Patton doesnt feel this will be an in
centive. Just playing William & Mary and being in the semifinals should be incentive enough.

Gregg Ashorn continues to lead the Pirate scoring, averaging 15 points a game. Robert Geter is up to 12.0, white Larry Hunt has an 11.3 mark. Donnie Owens is at 9.5, while Buzzy Braman, usually the other starter, has a 6.9 mark. Close behind him comes Reggie Lee. 6.7; followed by Tom Marsh at 6.3, Kenny Edmonds at 5.6, A1 Edwards at 5.3, and Earl Garner at 3.7.
Its going to be a tough game, no doubt about it, Patton said. Theyve already let it be known that they want us badly after our victory up there. Theyll be fired up. Well just have to be better than they are.

Even if Maryland falters in the tournament, its regular season title, national second ranking, and 22-3 record assure its bid.
Among the others, N.C. State, the defending national champion, appears to be in the best shape. The Wolfpack may also get a bid without winning the tournament.

Women Batter Russians As America Rolls To Win
Indiana Continues To Dominate AP Cage Poli; Sweeps Baiiots
By LARRY McDERMOTT Aatociated Press Writer
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -Once again the American women stole the show in the fourth USSR-USA indoor track meet, and garrulous Francie Larrieu
admits theres an assault under way on running records held by men.
"Women and men are physiologically different, but anything is possible, she said after running the fastest worn-
MoneyChanging Playoff Scene
By CRAIG AMMERMAN AP Sports Writer Like the family farm and castor oil, the notion that a team should win to be successful in professional sport seems to have faded into nothing more than a memory. And a fond one, at that.
If you can think back a decade ago, you can remember when the World Series really meant Mmething. Two teams were competing which had struggled through a long season, and they were the only two still playing.
The sports of basketball and hockey have taken a different course of late. Money is the reason.
This year after umpteen expansions and new leagues, 38 out of 60 professional hockey and basketball teams will qualify for post-season playoffs. One team currently in line for a spot in the playoffs has a 20-46 record, which works out to a .303 winning percentage.
If the playoffs began today, eight teams competing in the . four basketball and hockey leagues ^ would have losing records. \
Why? Since when was there a reward^foB losing?
"Its sinmle, said^ a general manager oK^a^ro basketball team. There are so many teams in the playoffs because 'we need the money. Almost everybody is losing money. We need all the games to recover what we .cfin.
So as an answer to salary wars which have resulted in an estimated 100 hockey and bas
ketball players making $100,000 or more per year, the leagues have set up a large playoff schedule.
The 10-team American Basketball Association will have an eight-team playoff. The 18-team National Basketball Association has a 10-team playoff. The 18-team National Hockey Association has a 12-team playoff and the 14-team World Hockey Association has an eight-team playoff.
And even such doings have failed to create last-minute races for a playoff spot in some leagues. In the NHL, for instance, 11 of the 12 playoff teams are already decided; the* only remaining struggle is between the New York Islanders and Atlanta.
A television announcer mentioned the other day that an ABA team, Virginia, was stronger now that it had added a nw player and he said the team might make a run at a playoff spot. Virginias record is 14-52. The team ahead of ib, Memphis, has won 20 and lost 46.
Such a statement would not have been Aiade a few years ago, when winning was all-important. It seems that those days are as distant now as the time when flop-eared mules outnumbered automobiles.
I remember, one sports official said, when you used to race for the morning paper to see who won. You used to care about which team would win it all.
Those were the days. Remember?
ens mile in history by one-half second in Monday nights fourth annual meet between the two countries.
The Americans gained an overwhelming victory, 171-106, against an inexperienced Russian' team that lacked many of that nations world-class athletes.
Although there were fewer womens events, the U.S. women chalked up 73 of the Americans total points, won nine of their 11 events, br(*e six records and tied another.
In mens competition, the Americans defeated the Russians in 12 of 15 events and piled up a 96-62 margin. Five records were broken and one tied, all but two by the Americans.
Also waving the womens banner was Joni Huntley, a petite 18-year-old freshman at the University of Oregoq who broke her own American indoor high jump record by clearing 6-2 M>.
As the meet was in its final minutes, she failed in three attempts at 6-3V4, which would have been.the highest ever by an American woman either indoors or out.
Miss Larrieu had little com-I^tition as she raced against the clock in the mile, finishing with a time of 4:28.5. En route, she also broke her own 1,500-meter mark with a clocking of 4:09.8.
As for the men. North Carolina Centrals Charlie Foster tied the amateur world record of 6.8 seconds in the 60-yard hurdles and Vladimir Golub-nichi, a 39-year-old Russian, set a world record in the three-mile walk in 19:46.2.
World 880 record holder Rick Wolhuter of Chicago, recipient of the Sullivan Award for his performances last year, won in 1:49.4, more than a second above his American indoor mark.
Another world record holder, Dwight Stones of Long Beach, Calif., took the high jump with a lackluster 7-3.
Besides Golubnichi, Valeri Boiko upped the pole vault record by 6Vi inches to 17-3V4 and Irinia Bondarchuk rah a record 10:02.6 in the two-mile. But Olympic 1,500-meter champion Liudmilla Bragina was third as 18-year-old Kate Keyes of Los Angeles took second.
The other women record breakers were Cheryl Toussaint of Brooklyn, N. Y.; Robin Campbell of Washington, D. C. ; Jane Frederick of Orinda, Calif., and a medley relay team of three 16-year-olds and Rosalyn Bryant of (Siicago, who at 19 holds the world indoor 220 record.
Miss Toussaint ran the 880 in 2:08.6 and Miss Campbell the 440 in 55.1. Miss Frederick piled up 2,902 points in the triathlon. On the 3.25.3 relay team with Miss Bryant were Miss Campbell, Angel Doyle cd Harrisburg, Pa., and Katlp Weston of Reno, Nev., the JBO runner-up.
Glenn Herold of Madison, Wis., clocking a 13:11.0 in the three-mile run, returned the record to the Americans in that event by surpassing the previous mark of 13:22.6 held by Rashide Sharafyetdinov, and the mens medley relay team lowered the standard to 3:01.1.
By The Associated Press
Indianas Hoosiers, unfazed by the loss of leading scorer Scott May, breezed to victory twice last week to raise their season record to 28-0 and maintain their unanimous top ranking in The Associated Press major college basketball poll.
Coach Bobby Knights players cruised past Illinois 112-89, then held off Ohio Etate 86-78 to amass all 41 first-place votes tast by a nationwide panel of sports writers and broadcasters.
Their 820 points provided a 104iX)int edge over Maryland, 22-3, which continued its backup roll to the leaders with a 103-82 triumph over Duquesne,-a 70-64 decision of Clemson and a 104-87 rout of East Tennessee State.
It was 39 points back to third-ranked Louisville, 22-2, which collected 667 points for a 75-69 victory over West Texas State
and a 92-73 verdict over North Texas State.
But from there down, the Top 20 resembled a giant game of leap frog. Only five of the remaining teams continued in positions they had taken earlier.
UCIjA, 22-3, moved up from fifth to fourth and 572 points by nipping California 51-47 and bombing Stanford 93-69. Marquette, 21-3, climbed into fifth place from sixth by pounding Oklahoma City 86-65 and picking up 452 points.
Kentucky, 21-4, dropped two notches to sixth place after losing 66-58 to Florida and crushing Vanderbilt 109-84. In seventh was Alabama, 22-3, up a step from last week on the strength of decisions over Georgia and Florida.
Defending national champion North Carolina State, 20-5, dropped to eighth after a 76-74 loss to North Carolina and a 23-point triumph over UNC-Char-lotte.

Rose Can Boo When He Wants
By The Associated Press Most players agree that the dugout is hardly the ideal vantage point for the viewing of a baseball game. The view is obstructed and its impossible to get a vendors attention.
Cincinnatis Pete Rose did something about that during the off-season: He purchased two season tickets for Reds home games.
I can complain all I want this year, Rose said, smiling, afteiv disclosing Monday that the seats in Section 104, Row 3, Seats 3 and 4 now are his property. Im a season ticket holder.
Of course, Rose will be occupied on the field when those tickets are in use, but at least he can boo or cheer when he pleases now, just like Joe Fan.
I paid C.C. for them, brother. Thats cold cash, Rose said, adding that he already had enjoyed one benefit from the purchase.
I got a set of Cincinnati Reds mugs, he said. They even have Joe Morgans autograph on them.
While Rose prepared for the Reds 1975 season at the clubs Tampa, Fla., training base, baseball owners went a^out getting the final few autographs on contracts at a number of other training sites.
Pitchers Mike Torrez and Bob Reynolds signed theirs with the Orioles at Miami, reducing to four the number of unsigned Baltimore players. They are catchers Andy Etche-barren and Earl Williams, second baseman Bobby Grich anc outfielder Don Baylor.
Big first baseman Bo<^ Powell ironed out his differences with the Cleveland Indians and signed his pact with the team that acquired him recently from the Orioles. That left onI>' one player, outfielder Oscar Gamble, unsigned for Frank Robinsons first season as Tribe manager. Gamble will not be allowed to wort out with the club until he signs, a man said.

One player who began workouts Monday was Henry Aaron, the all-time leading home run hitter who made his debut with the Milwaukee Brewers in front of two dozen reporters and photographers.
All I have to worry about is having a big year for the club, the 41-year-old Aaron said, adding that as Milwaukees designated hitter he expected to bat 200 times more than last season when he hit only 20 home runs.
Outfielder Don Hahn signed with the Philadelphia Phillies, while outfielder Rich Coggins already has agreed with the Montreal Expos but has yet to show up at their Daytona Beach, Fla'., training facility.
Expos left-hander Dave McNally remained unsigned Monday, but Montreal Manager Gene Mauch did not express concern.
Theres plenty of time, Mauch said. Its not as if he had to come down here and win a job.
Catcher Darrell Porter may have to win his job if he doesnt show up soon at the Brewers camp. Manager Del Crandall said he had no idea where Porter is, although all the other Milwaukee players reported Monday morning.
By BOB GREEN AP Golf Writer ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) Notes from the pro golf tournament trail:
There have been widely circulated reports of Bing Crosbys dissatisfaction with the television contract offer he received from the Tournament Players Division of the PGA for next years famed Crosby Pro-Am.
Published reports say he was on the verge of canceling his tournament, a keystone event for the whole western tour that starts the schedule.
And there have been reports that other celebrity events the Bob Hope, the Dean Martin-Tucson, the Glen Campbell-Los Angeles, the Andy Williams-San Diego were ready to follow Crosbys lead and also cancel.
TPD Commissioner Deane Beaman steadfastly has declined comment on negotiations for specific events but will talk of broad, general policy.
He is maintaining that position.
But I can tell you this, Be-man said. We are very close to completion of our winter schedule for 1976.
Beman was asked if that portion of the schedule, which includes all the western tournaments, offers any dramatic changes.
No, he said. At this time...no, I think I can say definitely, there doesnt appear to be any chance for any major changes in the schedule.
Three events off the schedule this season return next year the American Golf Classic in Akron, Qhio; the Colomal National in Fort Worth, Tex., and the Kings Island Open in Mason, Ohio.
All made way for other events this season. Akron has the PGA National Ciiampion-ship and (Colonial the Tournament Players Championship. Kings Island bowed out because of proximity in time and distance to the Ryder Cup matches.
Another Ohio event will be added a Jack Nicklaus production at his new course, Muirfield Village, outside Columbus, Ohio.
It appears that the 1976 pro tour schedule will be a little longer than this years, which ends in late October. Next seasons probably will go into November.
Burners, Nets Win
Th Burners and the Nets picked up victories in the South Greenville Basketball League, last night. ^
In the first game, the Burners took a 74-61 win over the Bullets. The Burners held a 35-27 advantage at half time.
A. J. Tyson led the winners with 22 points while Samuel Green had 18 and Mike Adams scored 15. Ronnie Jones led the Bullets 20 and Cleveland Taylor had 18.
The Nets defeated the Rockets 90-74 in the afterpiece. The Nets led all the way posting a 37-36 edge at half time.
H. Stevenson led the Nets with 31 while Ronnie Taylor had 21, Willie Smith 14 and Blount and B. Common both scored 12. David Tyson led the Rockets with 36 and Ruby She{diard had 12.
taineers will be rooting for tonight.
If the Cincinnati Bearcats defeat the Dukes tonight, the West Virginia earns a berth in one of the East Coast Athletic Conference regional tourneys, from which the four winners go on to the National Collegiate Athletic Association regionals.
A team with a 13-12 record like West Virginia doesnt really figure to go far in tournament play, but you never can tell how the ball bounces.
Besides, the Mountaineers are hosting the ECAC tourney and wouldnt like to sit on the sidelines.
The Mountaineers seem to have a pretty good shot at making it because the unranked Bearcats, )-5, are on a 14-game winning streak and fig-
Azalea In Upset Win
Azalea Mobile Homes and Jocks moved into the finals of the City Basketball Leagues tournament last night.
Azalea upset regular season Division I winner Happy Store, while Jocks downed Hymans.
In the opener. Azalea took a 71-68 victory over Happy Store. The two teams traded baskets throughout the first half, which ended in a 40-40 tie. But in the second. Azalea outscored Happy Store, 31-28, to gain the victory.
Lenny Blackley led Azalea with 19 points, while Dave Franklin had 17 and Tommy Williams had 12. Happy Store was led by Linwood Staton with 20, while Harold Randolph had 18 and Charlie Harris had 12.
In the other game, Jocks downed Hymans, 85-69. Jocks pushed out into a 41-30 lead at the half, and continued to pull away, holding a 44-39 second half advantage.
Terry Tolda led Jocks with 23, while Jack Warner and Charles Whitehurst each had 16, Gene Rackley had 15 and Gary James had 14. For Hymans, Darnell Speight had 15, Linwood Hyman had 14, Robert Brown had 12 and Cleveland Johnson had 10.
West Virginia or Duqufsne would join Pitt, Georgetown and George Washington in the ECAC regional at Morgantown, W.Va., starting Friday.
Meanwhile, Providence, 16-9, beat St. Bonaventure 82-69 Monday night and earned the fourth and final spot in the ECAC regional tourney at Springfield, Mass., with Holy Cross, Connecticut and Boston College. Massachusetts would have been the fourth team had Providence lost.
The East Coast Conference playoffs begin tonight with the winner of Saturdays final getting a berth in this years expanded 32-team NCAA playoffs. Tonights East Coast Conference games send Temple against Rider and Bucknell against LaSalle.
The Southern Conference tourney, starting Wednesday at Greenville, S.C., will determine yet another NCAA playoff team. The Southern Conference pairings are East Carolina vs. William & Mary and VMI vs. Furman, the favorite.
Furman, the favorite.
Also on tap later in the week are the Atlantic Coast Conference tourney starting Thursday and the Ohio Valley Conference tourney, which begins Friday. The winners of both tourneys go to the NCAA.
Top-ranked Indiana, which has completed its season, won the Big Ten championship and an automatic NCAA berth.
The Hoosiers will be joined by Ivy League titlist Penn; Missouri Valley ^ champ Louisville; Western Athletic Conference winner Arizona State; the Big Sky Conferences Montana; Pacific Coast Athletic Association representative San Diego State, and West Coast Athletic Conference representatives. In some cases the runners-up will join the NCAA field.
In the only action Monday night involving a ranked team. No. 13 Oeighton was upset 53-47 by Southern Illinois. The loss snapped a 14-game victory streak for Oeighton, now 20-5. Despite the setback, Oeighton, which plays No. 5 Marquette on Saturday, is still considered a good bet for an at-large bid from the NCAA.

The triumph gave the Terps the opening-round bye in the conference championship tournament which starts Thursday in the Greensboro Coliseum.
Although Roy fouled out late in the game, he was the key man in the victory. At one

I am pleased to announce that Speaker of the House, Jimmy Green has appointed me to the Advisory Budget Commission. This Commission is composed of twelve persons with four appointed by the Speaker, four by the Lt. Governor and four by the Governor.

The Commission makes a biennial inspection of the facilities of the State lasting in length about five weeks. The Commissions powers with regard to Capital Improvements are numerous;

Wouldn't Bet On ERA Passing
CONCORD, N. C. (AP)Gov. Jim Holshouser predicted Monday that the proposed amendment assuring women full equal rights will fail in the North Carolina legislature again this year.
If I had to bet on it. Id bet it wouldnt make it this year, Holshouser said in an interview.
Holshouser, in Concord to meet the public during a Peoples Day appearance, said he believes the proposal will be passed by the state Senate but will be rejected by the House.
Backers of the amendment claim they hold a slight majority in both houses.

3. The Director of Administration, with the approval of the Commission may prescribe appropriate procedures for the State to obtain materials from Federal, State, or local governments.
I consider my appointment as a distinct honor and a trusted responsibility and I hope that in this capacity I can make an important contributign not only to my State but to the District that I represent.
See you next week.

The bidding:

Opening Lead: Queen of 4.
Lead-directing doubles are useful weapons in every experienced bridge players arsenal. However, they do alert declarer to the situation, and on occasion allow him to switch to a new course. That was the case on this hand from the match between Italy and France in the qualifying rounds of the 1975 World Team Championship for the Bermuda Bowl, which event returned to Bermuda in January to commemorate the first
modern world championship played on the island 25 years ago.
Benito Garozzo and
Giorgio Belladonna were
North and South, respec
tively, for Italy. They play a weak no trump of 13-15 points, and. Belladonnas hand was perfect for that bid in both strength and shape. Garozzos two diamonds was a transfer bid, announcing a heart suit, and his partner dutifully accepted the transfer. Norths rebid showed a balanced hand and Invited South to go on to game if he was maximum. Since he held prime controls and three-card support for Norths announced five-card suit. South elected to push on to game, and the Italians seemed ahead for a four heart contract.
When Garozzo cue-bid the ace of spades, Frances Michel Lebel elected to double. He was correct in his assessment that a spade lead would defeat four hearts. The defenders would score a spade trick and a spade ruff in addition to their two red aces. Unfortunately for the defenders. Belladonna also, read the situation accurately, and he chose to close out the auction in three no trump rather than four hearts.
Had East been silent over three spades. West would certainly have led a diamond against an opposing three no trump contract, and a glance at the full hand shows that that lead would defeat the np trump game. However, respecting his partners double. West led the queen of spades, and now declarer had a second stopper in the suit after winning the ace. This gave him time to drive out the ace of hearts, so assuring his contract.

include Roaches in Cancer Study
RYE, N Y. (UPI) - A s!lidy of cancer and immunity among invertebrate animals, including the cockroach, is being undertaken at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
Funded by a $33,000 grant from the Whitehall Foundation, the program is directed by Dr. Robert S. Anderson. He is a researcher at the- Institutes Donald S. Walker Laboratory in Rye, N.Y.
Why study cockroaches and other invertebrates? There is a suspicion that some invertebrates are resistant to cancer.
If the cockroach is absolutely incapable of developing cancer, what is the nature of its protective mechanism? And why is this lacking in humans? The researchers hope to find out.

ON THESE COLD DAYS its no fun to be out in the weather so your carrier is taking special care to have your newspaper delivered in good condition. At times our carriers may be a bit late when the going is rough, but they do the best they can to keep all of their customers satisfied.
THE MOST DISCOURAGING part of a newspaper carriers job is not bad weather. Its having to come back two or three times to collect for the newspaper. The carrier knows that almost all customers intend to pay for the paper but making trip after trip and coming away without being paid can be mighty discouraging to a young person in business.
NEXT TIME YOUR CARRIER comes to collect, wont you remember those cold days when it was so nice to have your paper home-delivered? Your carrier tries to collect on schedule. Why not be ready with your payment the first time? It will make up for those cold days.
THANK YOU.

Farm Tips
By Dr. J. W. Pou AgrtcuHurai Sfioclaiiat Wachovia Bank A Trust Co NJt.
Consumers can expect to pay more for bread, cakes, doughnuts, and pizza in 1975. But the higher prices will be largely the result of price increases for ingredients other than wheat.
The record 1.9 billion bushels of wheat produced by U. S. farmers in 1974 will more than meet expected domestic and export demand in the marketing year that began last July 1 and runs through next June, according to Dr. T. Everett Nichols Jr., an extension economist at North Carolina State University.
Sugar and nonfat dry milk essential ingredients in bread and other bakery products will be rnoderately higher in 1975, and labor, trans^rta-tion and paper costs will be up significantly, Nichols said.
While prices of cereal and bakery products will increase this year, the price rise is not expected to be as sharp as in 1974, the economist said.
In the first half of 1974, retail prices of cereals and bakery products averaged one-third above the same period a year earlier.
If current trends continue, Nichols said, the average increase for the year will be about 27 percent, equalling the total price rise from 967 to 1973.
The N. C. State University specialist said demand
for wheat is expected to ease this year, particularly in foreign nmrkets. While domestic use likely will remain steady, exports may fall about a tenth. Nichols said the carryover of wheat next July will be around 400 million bushels compared with 249 million this year.
To stretch their food dollars as prices climbed during the past year, the economist said, consumers turned to pasta products such as macaroni, spaghetti and noodles, all made from a kind of wheat known as durum.
The trend toward cereal-based foodstuffs is expected to hold during 1974-75, but consumption of durum wheat is expected to be down slightly from last year, Nichols said.
The 1974 crop of oats was down about 4 percent from the previous year, arid last falls com harvest was sharply lower, dropping from 5.6 billion bushels annually over the past three years to around 4.7 billion last fall.
As a result of the short crop and low carryover of all grains, com and oat prices were sharply higher, particularly during the first half of the marketing year, Nichols said. Some decrease in both domestic feeding and foreign demand is expected this year and this should reduce pressure on supplies and prices during the spring and summer.
Nichols said some increase in retail prices of com flakes, oatmeal and products containing these cereal grains may result from the recent higher grain prices.

In recent months we have been constantly reminded that it takes seven pounds of grain to produce one pound of beef. This statement tends to imply cattlemen are inefficient.
This statement only refers to the final dry lot fattening phase. And thats only part of the story.
version of grain and protein supplement to total live weight is nearly 2.5 to 1.
Forages provide 70 to 75 percent of the feed units consumed by beef cattle. But grain is a very important part of beef production. Grain helps the yearly distribution of the beef
When considering roughage and supply because grass production pasture consumption by the beef is often seasonal. Also, beef cow and growing steer against animals can use grain that looks the 35 percent total body weight of sufficient quality for human put on in the feedlot, the con- consumption. About 50 percent

Yet harvested forage, pasture and rangeland remain tke'Tfn-portant crop in terms oj^alue to farmers and consumdrs.

From a land use standpoint around 1200 pounds of beef can be obtained from one acre of corn silage, whereas, one acre of grassland can produce only 450 pounds of beef.

Cookie Price War Erupted
CHARLOTTE, N.C.
There is a price war on Scout cookies between Mecklenburg County Girl Scouts in the Charlotte area and those across the Catawba River in Gaston County.
The cookies, which are bought at the same price from the same supplier, are being sold for $1.25 a box by the Mecklenburg girls and $1 by the Gaston County girls.
Some Gaston County parents who work in Charlotte are taking orders from their coworkers for cookies at the lower price. This*has led the parents of some Mecklenburg Girl Scouts to complain.
There have been no reports of Gaston girls going into Mecklenburg and selling cookies.

if Cambodia or South Vietnam fall because American aid is cut off.
The theory, formulated nearly 21 years ago as the French were on the verge of defeat in Indochina, held generally that the loss of one country to Communist aggression would lead to neighboring countries falling under Communist domination, one after another.
However, the latest version of the theory lories beyond Indochina for its predicted impact.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower sprice of the falling domino principle on April 7, 1954, a month before the Communist Viet Minh victory over the French at Dien Bien Phu.
Asked to comment on the strategic importance of Indochina to the free world, Eisenhower replied:
You have a row of dominoes set up. You knock over the first one, and what will happen to the last one is the certainty that it will go over very quickly. So you could have a beginning of a disintegration that would have the most profound influence.
The French soon lost Indochina, but the whole area did not go Communist, a fact that is often cited by opponents of the theory. As a result of an international conference, the country was partitioned into a Communist North Vietnam, a non-Communist South Vietnam, and independent regimes in
Cambodia and Laos.
The domino theory came up repeatedly during the national debate over U.S. military involvement in Vietnam in the 1960s and early 1970s.
Supporters of American involvement cited the theory as an argument for staying in South Vietnam until that countrys security was assured. Opponents derided the domino theory as a myth.
Recently, Defense Secretary James R. Schlesinger and Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger have spoken of the domino theory amid a new battle with Congress over whether theSolar Energy For Museum
RICHMOND (AP) The proposed new Science Museum of Virginia has been designed to make use of solar energy for heating and cooling, and when completed it will be the worlds largest public building to utilize this energy source, according to Dr. Paul H. Knappenberger Jr., the museums (Urector.
The 55,000-square-foot facility on a 45-acre site here will include a major planetarium with a tilted dome design, a multilevel exhibit area, a totally operational weather station and activity centers for, astronomy, chemistry, geology, mathematics, meteorology and physics.
United States should continue to support South Vietnam and Cambodia with arms, ammunition and other aid.
U.S. defense officials last week said neither South Vietnam nor Thailand would be seriously threatened if Cambodia fell to ttie insurgent forces. Like Kissinger and Schlesnger, they invoked a global domino theory and expressed concern that a failure by the United States to continue supporting South Vietnam would raise questions in Europe and Israel about U.S. steadfastness.
Kissinger said, If Vietnam falls as a result of an American decision to cut off its aid, that
will have, over a period of time,' the most serious consequences for the conduct of our foreign policy.
He said this will not be immediately apparent, but over a period of years it must raise the gravest doubts in the minds of many countries that have been associated with us. Schlesinger said the domino theory has been overly discredited. The defense chief said that the fall of South Vietnam, because of the withdrawal of U.S. aid, will be viewed with concern by those with whom we are negotiating at the present time in the Middle East.
