RALEIGH (AP) - Quite a number of state employes in policy-level positions have submitted letters of resignation to Gov.-elect Jim Hunt, an administrative aide said Saturday.
Paul Essex said he didnt know the exact number, but a stack of letters about an inch high has been received.
Hunt sent letters to employes in 169 policy-level positions Dec. 17 requesting letters of resignation by Jan. 8, the date of his inauguration.
Hunt has said a great many of those asked to resign would be retained, but said the resignations were necessary to get control of the bureaucracy.
Dr. Jacob Koomen, state health officer, said Saturday I certainly realize this is the way the governor feels about it. He said he would submit his resignation. Koomen has been health director 11 years and was assistant director for about four years.

phla. Pa., complained it was like a carnival. Cathy Graham of Sydney, Australia, said it was lots of laughs. Londoner Francis Gark Lewis saw it as the end of a 16-month walk.
A record number of visitors celebrated Christmas in the Holy Land in 1976, running a gauntlet of Israeli troops and Arab merchants to crowd into the Biblical birthplace of Jesus.
Some attended midnight mass in the cream-colored Church of the Nativity and sang Christmas carols in Manger Square. Others drank wine and smoked marijuana in the narrow, cobblestone alleys of the hilltop town.
Some minor shelling from Lebanon and Jordan was reported but no serious incidents.
Authorities said 40,000 tourists arrived in Israel for the Christmas season rad 25,000 of the visitors traveled to Bethlehem record official figures since the start of the Israeli occupation.
Its not what I expected but its full of laughs and as the night wears on it might turn into something interesting, Cathy Graham said as she waited for the start of midnight mass.
Francis Gark said it tocric him 16 mraths to walk from London to Bethldiem, passing through Turkey, Syria and Jordan before crossing the Alld)y Bridge into the Israeli-occupied West Bank.
Thousands of the Christmas visitors, dressed in jeans.
dresses, suits and coats, crowded into the narrow streets at the Old Gty of Jerusalm Saturday morning for a last round of shopping in the bustling Arab shc^s.
Msgr. Giacomo Beltritti, the Roman Catholic patriarch of the Holy Land, led a final day of prayers at the Church of the Nativity.
The prelate, drbssed in gold-trimmed red and white vestments celebrated midnight mass at St. Catherines, the Catholic section of the 4th Century Greek Orthodox church. The climax came as Beltritti wrapped a plaster figure of the infant Jesus in swaddling clothes and placed it in the Grotto of the Nativity by a silver star marking the traditional birthplace of Jesus.

Uncertainty Over Who's Running Chicago
By DAVID SMOTHERS UPI Senior Editor
CHICAGO (UPI) - Who is running this place?
Since Richard Daley hung up a telephone and fell dead of a heart attack in his doctors office Monday, no one seems sure who is running Chicago.
Perhaps it is because Chicagoans, after 21 years of Daley as their mayor, cannot accept the concept of anyone else running the nations second largest city.
But in the Daley tradition, a grand donneybrook is mounting for even the shreds of his power.
It began almost the moment the word spread through City Hall that the mayor was dead. It surfaced ugly, bareknuckled, friend against friend, black

NEW ORLEANS (UPI) -Albert Vice wanted to fed a,t home on Christmas. So fie ambled into a police station, reeking of alcohol, and demanded to go to jail.
He got his wish.
Vice has spent the last 25 Christmases in jail. Earlier in the week, when municipd court Judge Eddie Sapir discovered Vice had not celebrated the holiday as a free man for so long, he shortened his sentence for public drunkenness and freed him.
Vice thanked the judge but warned, You know I aint gonna st<^ drinking. Ill stop drinking when they stop making the stuff.
Since his release Thursday, Vice has been thrown into and released from jail three times.

On Christmas weekend, it boiled down to these diverse propositions:

The alderman from

No Injuries In Oklahoma Fire
BARTLESVILLE, Okla. (AP) A fire that destroyed or severely damaged 45 homes in a residential section of this eastern Oklahoma city was brought under control just short of a petroleum storage plant.
No serious injuries were reported in the Christmas Eve blaze that left about 100 persons homeless, but several persons were treated for smoke inhalation, officials said.
Authorities said they believe the blaze in the residential section of the west side of this city of about 35,000 started as a small trash fire.
Ast. Civil Defense Director Jim Willaford said Bartlesville fire units contained the fire in about two hours and kept it away from a Phillips Petroleum Co. bulk station.
Willaford said pn^rty losses had been estimated at $1.1 million. He said city officials were considering asking for a federal disaster declaration in order to obtain low-interest loans for those whose homes were burned.
In addition to the homes, two businesses were destroyed.
The homeless sou^t tem
porary lodging at neighbors homes and the Red Cross set up a headquarters at a neighborhood grocery.
Everything we own and everything weve worked for all our lives is over there, said Sarah Jackson, pointing to the ruins of her home.
It spread like a wildfire, said another . eyewitness. There is a lot of tar in some of those houses and there was smoke everywhere.
ed until a special election within six months. Anybody can get in on that one.
But:
There is a quirk in Illinois law by which the acting mayor might be able to declare the special election off and thereby stay in Daleys old office on the fifth floor of City Hall untifl979.
At stake are the hot ambitions of of a batch of Democrats who have been pawing the Chicago turf for a long time waiting for Daley to go and give them a chance to move.
Republicans are hardly a factor. One of Daleys many ac-complishments-was to practically destroy the GOP as a force in (Chicago city politics.
The bell for the first round should ring Tuesday, when Wilson Frost, president pro tempore of the City Council, calls the council into session.
Ever since Daley died. Frost has maintained that he, by vir-tiK of his office and Daleys own word, is acting mayor. Legal precedent, however shaky, indicates he or his backers may
sue if he is denied.
But Frost is black. So are close to half the people of Chicago. The question of whether Chicago will have a black mayor is, in the opinion of many pditicians, not so much if as when and when the city hall establishment will acc^t the prospect.
Frost had hardly declared himself mayor when a coterie of Daley insiders, fronted by press aide Frank Sullivan declared first that Deputy Mayor Kenneth Sain was in charge, then that there was no acting mayor.
Frost, as presiding officer of the City Council, could refuse to call a vote mi acting mayor Tuesday and, if lucky, throw the fight into the courts.
Whoever is declared acting mayor if anybody is mi^it be able to take advantage of a home rule stipulation in the Illinois law applying to Cliicago and call off the special election otherwise specified when a mayor dies.
Chicago has not seen a family fight like this since Daley came to power.
The Prison Population Picture
RALEIGH, N.C. (UPI) -North Carolina officials made special provisions to ease overcrowding in the states prisons by releasing more inmates for Christmas, but a flood of new admissions raised the inmate population to previous levels.
On Dec. 3, nearly 700 of the 13,000 inmates in the states prisons were released from prison because they qualified for the traditional holiday commutation of sentence.
But after their release, the
prison population surpassed 13,000 again within the following week.
The new admissions are exceeding the discharges from the system, said state Parole Commission Chairman Jack Seism.
Prisoners whose sentences expired between Dec. 17 and Jan. 10 had normally been given commutations. But prison officials extended the period from Dec. S to Jan. 31.
Unfortunately, it did not provide much relief, Seism
Oj.
said Friday.
For those still behind bars, Christmas Eve and the preceding days brought a time of small parties, worship services and caroling.
Everything was reported quiet in the states major prison facilities in Raleigh on Friday.
One prison official said inmates tend to get more homesick around Christmas, but he noted that community support and gifts have helped ease their homesickness.
In Central Prison, around 10 candlelight and carol services were held Thursday and Friday. Several inmates also held a caroling session for inmates confined to the prison hospital Friday night.

BOSTON (UPI) - She was Ul-starred the Liberian
tanker Argo Merchant.
In the past dozen years she had been involved in 18 high sea mishaps.
On Dec. 15 the 640-foot vessel, laden with 7.6 million gallons of heavy No. 6 fuel oil, was piowtag through the chill, crystal clear waters of Nantucket Shoals 10 miles off course, already leaking badly and en route to a new depth in her Jinxed career.
Suddoily the Argo Merchant ran aground for the third time in seven years, this time in 27-foot waters. Hoiir by hour, day by day, wintry seas pounded the vessel until finally she broke apart at the stem Tuesday.
What resulted was the worst oil spill in the history of the American Atlantic coast.
The impact was immediate. State officials estimated an $83 mlUk loss to the rich Cape Cod fishing industry. Estimates of a $75 million loss to the tourist industry have been put forth if the resulting 100-mile long slick reverses direction and pollutes resort area beaches.
What was less obvious was why the Argo Merchant, en route to Salem, Mass., with her $2.6 million cargo, was so far off course in the first place.
The whole affair was made even more mysterious when the Coast Guard said it had received a phone call from a man identifying himself as a crewmember, who reported the tanker had bei deliberately run aground with the knowledge of her owners.
Muhammad Sabir, the crewmember whose name was used in the telephone call to the Coast Guard, then left a Nantucket Island hotel on a charted flight to an unknown destination.
Some of the questions may be cleared up starting Monday when interrogations of the Argo Merchants skipper, George Papadopoulos, and several crewmembers move to New York and become open to the news media.
Interrogations under oath are called depositions and are the first step in gathering evidence for a $60 millkm dama^ suit filed by Cape Cod fishermen. Piq>ado{)oulos started his d^K>-sition Wednesday in Boston but the hearings were closed to r^rters.
U.S. District Judge Joseph Tauro ruled Thursday the news media could be present at future dqx)sitioas and that transcripts of the previous hearings also whould be made public.
Then Joseph Smith, attorney for Thebes Shipping Co. Inc. owners of the A^ Merchant obtained an order Friday from a federal judge in New York to move the hearings to New York city.
In addition, four persons have been appointed to a Marine Board of Investigation to investigate the charges in New Yoric city.
Dr. F.L. Wiswall Jr., Admiralty counsel to the Republic of
Toronto is the name the Huron Indians gave to their country and probably means land of ploity.
26 Years Of Gifts From Unknown Sender
A LONG WAY FROM HOME ~ Australiat Green VaUey Oiolr, from Greea Valley, a suburb oi Sydney, sing under the walls of the Churdi of the Nativity in Bethlehem Friday nisht Christmas Eve. The choir

RALEIGH, N.C. (UPI) -Another Christmas has passed for Mrs. Kay Autry, and she still doesn't know who has been sending her gifts anonymously for the past 26 years.
The only thing the 31-year-old Raleigh secr^ary knows for sure are the mailing habits of her mysterious bearer of gifts.
The gift is always wrapped with plain brown paper outside, and Christmas paper inside. And theres always an wdinary white card signed, From Santa Oaus.
Its always been that way since she received her first gift
a Uny doll with a pink ribbon
at the age of six.
Postmarks are no clue. The
packages have been mailed from different states, and the gifts have changed over the years. There have been mittens, a pen, porfume, a scarf and, most recently, a bottle of hand cream.
The year she was married, Mrs. Autry received a pin engraved with her new Initials.
Naturally, her parents, friends and relatives deny sending the gifts, but their eager anticipation of the arrival of the gifts every year has Mrs. Autry convinced Its not them.
It it ever stops, itll Just tear me all to pieces, she said after receiving her gift last week. Im afraid something
could happen to whoever it is and Id never be able to thank them.
She said the gifts have meant a lot to her. 1 have nothing but gratitude and iove for whoever it is.
So, whoever Santa is, Mrs Autry sends her thanks. Or maybe, Mrs. Autry, there really is a Santa Claus.
Liberia, said a marine biochemist would be named as a fifth person to the panel, which will ctmvene in February or early March.
The Argo Merchant, built in 1953 in Hamburg, Germany, also ran aground in 1969 and 1971.
We hear all sorts of things when an accident like this happens but they are far from the truth, Stelios Madias, manager of Tripsip, the Greek agents for the ship, said.
If the owners have indicated that they do not Want these matters public, then I wont tell, said William Schell, operations manager of A.C. Lombards and Sons, the ships Boston agent.
Meanwhile, there is that great, serpentine oil slick in the Atlantic. Coast Guardsmen say chunks of tar-like oil are
bobbing up and down over a 2,000-square-mile area of the rich fishing waters.
Its like a fat, hungry snake, Coast Guard spokesman Charles Crosby said.
None of the oil has washed ig) onto the Massachusetts coast and the slick, driven by raw winter winds and icy sea currents, appears heading away from the abundant Georges Bank fishing waters.
The Coast Guard Friday gave jp the idea of dispersing the dick by igniting it with a powdery chemical called silica. The oil patches Bank fishing waters.
The Coast Guard Friday gave up the idea of dispersing the slick by igniting it with a powdery chwaves have discouraged other cleanup methods, such as the use of straw to soak up the oil.

We Live In The Best Nation
rr 1 tuMfS smOtCATf
At Christmas most of us begin to recognize how fortunate we are to live in this country at this particular time.
Sen. Robert Morgan, who was raised a farm boy, never forgets that his state and nation have been good to him and so many other people.
In a recent news letter he told of a company which was started by two brothers 25 years ago and now employs over 100 persons and has sales of $9 million annually.
Sen. Morgan told of talking to a man whose father had deserted him when he was a small boy. On Jan. 20 he will take leave of the office of President of the ynited States.
Another man left Wilkes County in North Carolina as an orphan. He was raised in West Virginia. Now Robert Byrd is the junior senator from that state and may be the next majority
leader in the Senatethird most powerful man in Congress.
Morgan recently talked to a man who, in 1935, lived in a public housing project with his bride. Next month he will take the oath of office as president of the United States.
England is a Democracy, but Morgan recalled that on a recent trip there he asked a man about the fishing in a nearby creek.
I dont know, the man replied. Im not allowed to fish there.
Even now the stream is reserved for the ruling gentry who owned the land the stream passed through.
Sen. Morgan said, At this Christmas season, perhaps it is a good time to look around and see, that despite all of our current problems, we do indeed live in the best country on this planet.
A good time indeed.
Build-Up Of Tobacco Is A Problem

It is clear that this will have to be corrected.
Duel in the |um
VIRGINIA COOKERY
By ALVIN TAYLOR
AAuddlo King Of Emporia Sunday Morning Notes
EMPORIA, Va. - When the muddle pot is steaming in Greensville County, folks gather for an afternoon of Southside Virginia socializing thats hard to beat when it comes to tradition.
If you can't eat it with a fork, its not muddle
If its got butter beans floating around in it, its not muddle.
Butter beans are to be tasted, not seen.
If you havent got a pound of chicken for a quart of muddle, you aint got nothin. Five pounds of hen makes about four quarts of muddle, and the older the hen, the better the muddle, so long as its not so tough that it wont come off the bone. Edgar Morriss is Greensville Countys master muddle chef. Back in 27, he was helping half a dozen older men get that muddle pot going, and now, nearly 50 years and hundreds of muddle pots later, hes still at it.
He absorbed the art of muddle-making by helping out at squirrel muddles, chicken muddles and barbecues.
The recipe is no secret. Its just hard work.
Just enough water is put in
the pot to cover the chicken.
After that come the vegetables and they all have their own liquid. In go the onions, potatoes, butter beans and tomatoes. The com goes in last.
A smoked side of bacon is added, after its cooked in Morriss special frying pan, and just the right amount of grease is drained off.
Salt and pepper go in, and so does paprika.
Morriss hasnt always used potatoes, but he found out that potatoes helped some of the older folks eat the muddle. Without the potatoes, it burned going down, but with the spuds, their stomachs were more comfortable. The starch holds down the acid from the tomatoes and onions, so now its part of the recipe.
The whole thing has to be cooked for about four hours, and the chickens got to come all to pieces before its done.
Stirring is the real secret of making a good muddle. Not everyone can stir right, and Morriss has been known to take the paddle away when the muddle is in danger of being ruined. Its got to be stirred around, slowiy, but not too slowly, then across, just right.
Morriss will never be caught away from the pot when hes in charge of a muddle, because it can bum in two minutes.
Modem muddle cookers sometimes cook thei^ chickens in a pressure cookei-before they put it in the muddle, just to save time, but Morriss wont hear of it. Twenty percent of the flavor is lost that way, and the man that they call the muddle -king prepares muddle the right way.
Every time the muddle king walks down the street, someone in town is asking him to cook a muddle, but he only cooks for churches and civic groups.
He directs muddles now that hes nearly 70 years old, and leaves the heavy work to some of the younger folks.
One part of the cooking that Morriss really enjoys is nibblin the meat off the bones when theyre picked out.
Picking out the bones is another story thats the hard part, and It sure takes a while.
Morriss was raised in a farming family out on Greensville Countys Lowground Road. He farmed until 52, when he moved into
Emporia and tok up his town career as a carpenter. Since he retired a couple of years ago he raises a huge garden, walks every day to keep fit, works around the house, and makes muddle at community suppers for charity.
But muddle isnt as profitable as it used to be. A civic or charity group used to double their money at a muddle fund-raising supper, but now theyre lucky if they make 30 percent.
Just looking at the price of bacon and chicken is enough to tell the story. Used to be you cou|d get chicken for 30 cents a pound and bacon for 69 cits a pound, even in 70. Now its more like 70 cents for a pound of chicken and two dollars for bacon.
Profit or not, Morriss is sure that Greensville County will keep eating muddle its a way of life.
People driving through town have heard about a muddle on the radio, and pulled in just to give it a try.
Its not Brunswick stew thats soupy or beef stew or chicken soup.
Its chicken muddle and the muddle king is going to make sure that the art of making it remains an art.

Audiences used to consist largely of friends and associates. Now the general public is taking more interest because of an increasing variety. Spectators are within a few feet of the per- formers and chat with their neighbors later, when refreshments often are served. The evening becomes a friendly gathering.
Seventy-four persons make a capacity crowd at the 13th Street Theatre in Greenwich Village. With six rows of motheaten seats, the storefront playhouse annually presents 10 to 20 shows written by fledgling playwri^ts. In typical Off Off Broadway fakikm, the performers, all unknowns, dont get paid.
Tickets cost $2 to $4 not enough to offset the weekly operating budget of $850. We broke even last year, said managing director Jim Payne. But thats because some of us dug into our own pockets to help out.
Later spectators will share
a cold buffet ana wine with the cast, which is performing La Ronde, a tura-of-the-century play about vice and viril advertised by the actors as a study of lascivious liaisons, licentiousness, profligacy and libertinism.
Were not just performing, Were throwing a party! exclaims actress Carla Coria, iriio organized La Rondes run of eight performances. The five players sent out 1,000 posters to friends and associates, who paid $10 a ticket, including siq^r, for an evening of intimacies.
Expenses, including a fee for the use of a friends apartment, food, liquor and costumes, came to $2,500. If the evenings are a sell-out, the performers, working as Le Petit Theatre, each will make a 160 profit.Quote

Strength For Today
PLANNING FOR CHRISTIAN GROWTH
One of the axioms of modem life is that all successful enterprises must be planned in advance.
We of course realize the necessity of planning in our business and professional lives. But few people realize that we must have a definite program for the development of ouf spiritual lives if we are ever to reach spiritual maturity.
This plan must involve such things as daily Bible reading.
every day to carry the principles of the gospel into the everyday routine of life. God has made provision whereby we can achieve the destiny He has in store for us.
But we can never expect growth if we pay no attention to cultivation. It is futile to expect success in anything, including the ^iritual life, unless we are willing to lay careful plans, and then with great patience put them into execution. It costs something to be a Christian, but it is certainly worth it.
Winterville Fire Department members planned at a recent training session to bum an old house.
Larger equipment was taken out from the station to the site of the old house. The blaze was started and the volunteer firemen practiced knocking it down with their hose lines.
Then one of the firemen went to the rear of the track for a routine check. He was greeted by two large bright eyes staring at him.
The firefighter investigated further and found that the eyes belonged to a white cat. It apparently had been asleep on the hose bed when it left the station.

Other Editors Say A Billion Dollars
(Greensboro Daily News)
Last week, outgoing Governor James Holshouser spread some Ciiristmas cheer with his announcement that industrial investment for 1976 had exceeded $1 billion, a state record. Indeed, the Holshouser administration has broken state records for industrial investment in three of the four years of its tenure, according to George Little, outgoing Secretary of Natural and Economic Resources.
This record is impressive and will probably stand as the outstanding accomplishment of the Holshouser administration. Moreover, it was not achieved at the expense of the state wage level or of environmental quality.
Governor Holshouser noted that in three of the four years of his administration the ^average wage for expansions and new industries has exceeded the average industrial wage in the state. The net effect, then, of recent industrial recruitment has been to raise the average wage level in North Carolina. Textiles, the states dominant industry and a low-wage one, was not in the first five in new investment. Food, chemicals, transportation, machinery and electronics led the way toward industrial diversification and higher wage levels.
Secretary Little took the opportunity to criticize Governor-elect Hunts plan to take economic development out of the Department of Natural and Ecixiomic Resources and place it in the D^artment of Commerce. Mr. Little noted that, for SO years. North Carolina has combined industrial recruitment and environmental protection in one department. This approach has well served boUi the causes of rational economic development and environmental quality.
Before Goveraw-elect Hunt separates industrial recruitment from environmental protection, he should produce facts to justify the action. These are not to be found in the recent figures on industrial investment. To the contrary, the record of new investment in the Holshouser years belies prophecies of doom and gloom concerning North Carolinas economic future.
the ECU Medical School building will be under construction adjacent to the hospital. Perhaps the construction Christmas tree will be resumed then.
And in The Dally Reflector composing room a small Christmas tree appeared last week.
It was decorated with computer tape, cutouts from the advertising departments various services and other parapheralia.
It was a project of Vickie Spivey, and its just another way of saying Merry Christmas!
Its slightly late but your columnist wishes all those who read this column faithfully, occasionally or even on rare occasions a Merry Christmas!

EDITOR'S NOTE - In the worid of disasto- movies and books, there is a new dimension that grows increasingly popular the man-made disasto'.
By KAL WAGENHEIM For The Associated Press
Nobody scares people better than people. Diabolical, unpredictable. crazy people. And everybody, it seems, likes being scared.
The shudder business has moved from man-made creatures like Frankenstein to vampires to fire, flood and earthquake. Lately the conspiracy, the terrorist raid, the assassination are spelling bonanzas for the book publishing industry and for movies.
Many of best-selling disaster stories today are pliKked right from the front pages of our newspapers: Arabs, Israelis, Russia, China, nuclear confrontation, terrorism, says A1 Silverman, editorial director of the Book of the Month Club, whose current selection is Thirty-Four East, by Alfred Coppel. In that novel, the U.S. President is r^rted to be involved in a plane crash, the vice President is kidnapped by terrorists, and Russia and the United States move to the brink of nuclea^ war.
Until recently, natural disasters were in vogue, with such films as Earthquake, Towering Inferno and The Poseidon Adventure. Man-made disaster themes, such as Doctor Strangelove, the 1960s story of a nuclear holocaust threat, were on the fringe of science fiction.
But the science fiction of just a decade or two ago seems to have forecast quite amazingly whats technologially possible today, says Hugh McDonald, a successful author of disaster themes,
McDonalds latest book, a Pyramid paperback entitled Five Signs From Ruby, is the story of terrorists who threaten to destroy five Israeli cities with atomic devices planted in the cities. A recent McDonald thriller, Hour of the Blue Fox, deals with germ warfare; the Russians attempt to pollute a U.S. reservoir with a deadly virus.
I dont know exactly why the public goes in for disaster themes, says McDonald. Why, after all, did everyone (Continued on page A-S)
Textile Industry Outlook Good
GASTONIA, N.C. (AP) -Business at the many textile mills scattered acnss Gaston County is running from booming to dragging, but Christmas season predictions for 1977 are for a good year.
And predictions for Gaston County, a major area in the states textile industry, could prove to be a thermometer for the kxlustry across the state.
Tommy Thompson, personnel manager for a Burlington Industries plant ba%, said he knew 1977 would be a ^xxl year iihen he saw a picture of President-elect Jimmy Carter in blue jeans.
When the man in the White House wears blue
terrific boost to our business, Thompson said. I figure that a lot of people are going to do like Mr. Carter and wear casual clothes, too. It ought to assure us of wonderful business during 1977.
Hiompson said business is already booming at his (riant, a weave mill, and it is running six and seven days a week. Other local Burlington plants are running six days a week.
Albert Myers Jr., duirman of Textiies-Inc., said 1976 was a banner year tor bis company and be predicts 1977 to be even better.
The department stores have sold a lot of apparel for Christinas, and this means
be filled again, Myers said.
Allai McNeill, presidoit of McBess Industries which makes yam for hosiery and outerwear, echoed Myers.
A year ago we had 100 employes and today we have 280, so you can see that we have grown in 1978, McNeill said. Our (riants are running six days a week.
But some textile firms have not fared as well. Some small mills are on short time and some have oitire sections shtridown.
This is the time of year for the traditional lull in textile manufacturing, said Carl Harreison, local manager for the N.C. Employment Security Commissioa. During the week of Dec. 4-11, his
employes tor unemployment pay. Harreison said that Gaston County has abmit 25,000 textile employes.
About one person out of 25 looking for a job or working short hours was a textile employe, Harreison said.
Some plant managers said the past few months have not been good, but they are optimistic about 1977.
Duke Kimbrell, president of Parkdale Mills Inc., said his plants have gone back to running six days a week after a period of three weeks when they operated only five days.
Although business has been a little slow since August, I think its going to come back strong in 1977.

Observations From Editorial Columns
Buitding Barricadas
North Carolina Grows on tobacco proclaims a colorful and very professional brochure which found its way into our maUbox -and, wed bet. many another - last week. It is hardly surprising that such a mall promotion should come ip the weeks immediately preceding a session of the North Carolina Geieral Assembly in which there will be heavy pressures to find new revenues (from tobacco products maybe?).
Teachers organizations, for instance, are responding to the no MW or higher taxes mottoes of politicians by wondering aloud why North Carolina is the lowest-taxing state on tobacco products.
The brochure makes a large point about what tobacco means to North Carolina. It declares, among other things, that the tobacco Industry sent over $1.3 billion flowing through the states economy in 1975, that for farmers flue<ured tobaccos Mt revenue of $1,073 per acre is miles ahead of the nearest competitor (cotten, at $172 per acre), that cigarette manufacturing employees earn an hourly wage rate of $5.92, above the national industry avera^. and that Marly 30,000 peale are employed in processing'and manufacturing tobacco products.
The message, unsaid, is clear: Dont fool around with the states golden goose.
Veterans on the state legislative sceM say that any move to up the state tobacco tax will faU Mxt year, but that the size of Ue threat Increases with every turn of the GeMral Assembly calendar.

Cruise of the Snap Dragon is the kind of book we need more of from North Carolina writers and about North Carolina people.
The book, by Ruth Peeling Barbour of Morehead City, is about a cruise of the privateer captained by Otway Bums of Beaufort during the War of 1812.
It is well-written, moves rapidly and will have a special appeal for those who loiow and love the rivers and sounds and inlets of North Carolina.
While the book is a novel, many of the adventures are based on excerpts from the 1(^ of Captain Bums ship, the Snap Dragon.
Importantly, the book brings to the attention of North Carolinians om of their extraordinary heroes of military history. Captain Bums captured 42 English vessels, made prisoMrs of 300 officers and sailors and engaged ships of tM mightiest war fleet in the world at that time.

Compacts Pay Own Way
The City of Hickory conducted an experiment that the City of Gastonia might be interested in.
It Involved the use of compact cars as police vehicles.
Hickorys officials have nothing but praise for the compacts. They say that they have proved their serviceability, economy anddq>endability. '
Hickory, like most local and state police agencies, traditionally has used big cars with 400 cubic-inch motors. Mileage ran between five and seven miles-per-gallon. Tires expired at around 10,000 miles. And the cars required a high level of maintenance.
Now, Chief Melvin L. Tucker is in high praise of the Chewy Novas added to the fleet in the winter of 1975.
He has told officials of the N.C. LeagM of Municq>alities that the smaller cars cost a lot less (16 per cit) to begin with and they also get 12 miles to the gallon of gas, a 70 per coit improvement. MaintenaMe costs are lower because the lighter, less powerful cars don't take as much strain. And tire life is up to 15,000 mUes.
Perhaps even more important is the fact that since the compacts were bought noM has been involved in a traffic accident. This M doubt is dM to the easier handling and maneuverability of the cars compared to the full-sized vehicle. Lower insurance rates could result.
The reduced accident rate could come from a lesser tendeMy of police officers to show off the power under the hood.
Some police officers no doubt would question the ability of the small car to outrun offenders. Today, however, it is possible to rely on communications and roadblocks instead of the power of a big automobile.

Petrie fear the unknown. In a subUe way, disaster plots make the uncertain more certain, the unpredictable more predictable. says E. L. Quar-antelli. a sociologist who co<ii-rects the Disaster Research Center at Ohio State University.
TTie Disaster Research Center documents actual disasters and conducts in-depth inter-vievre. Quarantelli says that many people (involved in disasters) have reported that things had riot been as bad as expected. Perhaps the mass media books, movies, mws-casts had conditioned them to expect worse. In a way. while many books and movies about disasters are not wholly accurate, they may help people to cope emotionally with real disaster if it occurs.__
Does technology threatoi the demise of natural disaster epics?
Not realty, say the experts. But the so<alled natural disasters must be hi^y original, as in the case of Peter Ben-chleys Jaws.
What might be the best-selling disaster epic of the year is Clive Cusslers Raise the Titanic! which blends a true incident, a possible crisis, and a natural disaster.
It is set in the year 1988, when the United States and Russia are close to nuclear war. Americas salvation from attack is a rare element, by-zantium, locked in the vault of the ship Titanic, which sank to the bottom of the North Atlantic in 1912. Heroic, massive efforts are made to raise the old ship, then a hurricaM strikes.
Raise the Titanic! is already selling briskly in hardcover and will be on bookclub lists. Bantam has paid $840,(X)0 for paperback rights, and film rights have been sold for $450,-000, plus a poMntage of the box office gross.
AMther disaster book awaiting screen treatment is Hal Lindseys 12-milIion copy bestseller Zondervan (movie title: The Late Great PlaMt Earth), which warns of im-poiding natural and man-made disasters.
A recent book with the nuclear apocalypse theme is James Mills The Seventh Power,
rocking chair. Her hair is soft white, twisted up in the back, and pinned. The antique clock on the huge dresser behind her is ticking loudly, steadily.
My mother and father, they were very poor. We didnt have any lamps or lanterns to make a liit, so we went out in the woods and gathered rich pine. Then wed qjlit it and stick it in the corner of the chimney. It made a good light to et by.
We didnt have a stove either. Mother cooked over
which shows the U.S. Government held hostage by a homemade bomb hidden in a Manhattan apartment.
Edward Stuart, author of Theyve Shot the Prsidents Daughter, has just weighed in with another disaster theme. Launch!, about 150 Minute-mi ICBMs under Smith Dakota soil, and a Russian ^y ^tellite. In The nuclear Catastrophe. by Bett Pohnka and Barbara Griffin, an earthquake shakes up the nuclear plant that supplies electricity to Los Angeles, and a deadly, smoglike radioactive cloi^ hangs over the city.
Telempath by Spider Robinson shows the earth threatened when a biochemist invents a strange epidemic virus. In Plague. by Gwyneth Cravens and John S. Mair, bubonic plague is rampant in Manhattan, and panicked residents of adjacent boroughs shut off all bridges and tunnels.
The theme of a single killer wreaking havoc is still compelling. as evidenced by large crowds paying to see (Jeorge LaFountaines Two-Minute Warning, about an assassin who threatens 90,000 fans on a Super Bowl Sunday.
Fact is, even the word disaster has undergone change over the years. Its original, now obsolete, meaning was an evil influence of a celestial body. But the stars and planets are less of a mystery today, so the new definition includes any incident that results in destruction, distress or misfortune.

WASHINGTON-It is only fitting at Christmastime that we discuss the famous Dear Virginia letter in which she asked a New York Sun editor whether or not there was a Santa Claus. Suppose Virginia wouid have written that ietter today. Here are some of the possible replies:
From a U.S. senator:
Dear Virginia: Thank you so much for your ietter of the 14th. I am always happy to hear from my constitMnts on the issMS of the day. As you know, my feelings on Santa Claus have always been a matter of public record and I intend to speak out on the subject at the appropriate time. But because we plan to hold hearings on this question, I believe it would be premat ire for me to tell you whether there is or is not a Santa Claus until we have all the facts. I am enclosing a speech I made on the floor of the Senate concerning mw guidelines for alternate snow removal from our national highways. I thought you would be interested in this burning issM which affects all the citizens of our great state. Sincerely yours
From the FBI:
Dear Virginia; I regret to inform you that due to Federal Bureau of Investigation regulations we are Mt at liberty to disclose the information that you asked for. You may appeal this decision under the Freedom of Information Act if you so desire. In the meantime we are starting a file on you in which your letter is mw listed as item No. 1. We are also opening a file on Santa Claus.Clarence Kelley ,
From the National Organization for Women: Dear Virginia: Your letter indicates your naivete and lack of awareness of what has been going on in this country for the last 200 years. Santa Claus is an invention of the male supremist cabal to keep women from gaining full equality and respect. Only by rejecting the Santa Claus myth will we be able to overthrow the chains of bondage and free ourselves from the idea that it is the male who provides all the toys
and other gifts on Christmas Eve. We invite you to attend the next meeting of NOW in your local community and learn the tnie facts of how we women bought the Santa Gaus fairy tale and the price we are paying for it evai today.Sincerely yours
From the Department of Health, Education and Welfare:
Dear Virginia: We regret we are unable to process your request for an answer to your question until you have filled out Form B1897 and Impact /^plication R9004567 as well as submitting Certification 459K as outlined in Paragraph 6, Page 198, Section 11 of Volume Four HEW Regulations. Omo you have fulfilled these requirements your question shall be forwarded to the appropriate dq>artment.
But because of the pressure of work we advise you Mt to contact us again for eight months at the minimum. Wha you do, please refer to Serial 145923, Which is the number your letter has been assigned.Respectfully yours
From the EMyclc^aedia Britannica:
Dear Virginia: Thank you so much for your ietter and the question you raised. The answer to it can be found in our mw 26-volume edition which is MW being offered at a special discount price. Not only will you find the answer to whether there is or is not a Santa Gaus but you will find the answer to thousands of other questions that come up in everyday schMlwork and conversation. Our representative will be calling on you after the first of the year to advise you on our^ea^-term payment plan. This is om investment yoqll Mver regret.Sincerely

Rural Arecis Look To Rising Crime Problems
By DON KENDALL AP Farm Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) -The crime rate in rural areas is iMreaslng about as fast as in the cities, but there is still some difference in the offenses. More cattle rustling than muggings, for example.
But the Agriculture Department says rural police meaning small-town marshals as well as coimty sheriffs do have some things in common with their big-city counterparts in the rising number of noncriminal cases thQT handle.
For example, a recent survey among rural pol'ce departments in Michifan showed that 80 po- cent of the calls for assistance involved
such complaints as noisy neighbors, domestic squabbles, runaway children and abandoned cars.
Rural areas still don't have nearly the crime problems of cities, the departments Economic Research Service says in he current issue of Farm Index.
Hic FBI Crime Index a grouping of seven serious crimes found to r^resent the most frequent crime problems shows that metropolitan areas remain more crimeprone.
The report said the FBI index showed that In big-city areas some 6,110 offenses per 100,000 population were tabulated in 1975, compared with 1,996 per 100,000 in rural areas.
In other words, rural dwellers were only a third as likely to be crime victims, the report said.
But the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration says that nationally, perhaps more than one-half of the crimes are mvw reported.
Some victims contend that police cant do much, anyway; others are not aware that a crime was committed such as the loss of a litUeHised tool or other article. Or some are not willing to wait for police action.
These problems seem especially difficult in rural areas, the report said. A very few patrol units may be expected to cover a large geographical areas, thus
greatly delaying response time.
The report cited several reasons why rural crime may be rising:
More people are moving to rwal areas and thus demand additional police service.
Improved highways make rural areas more accessible to criminals.
Rising affluence among fanners and other residents has attracted criminals who seek everything from tractors and aidMnobiles to CB radios, tape decks and other gadgets Among the things rural conununities can do to cope with the rising crime rate is to find effective ways to involve citizens in combatting
it. This could be particulariy effective among farmers who, traditionally, have been slipshod in guarding against
thefts. _
~ But with crime rates up, more farmers are installing alarms, locks on all buildings, and outside lights, the report said Many farmers are geMrally keeping a more watdiful eye on their belongings .
An old practice among numy farmers of leaving tracUus and <)ther equipment in the fields overnight al is disappearing. If implements are left out. many farmers MW chain them or otherwise hobble the machines to help thwart thefts.
When cattle prices were much higher two or three
years ago than they are mw, rustling al increased. It still occurs, and many farmers have adopted the branding practice followed by ranchers to help Identify their stock.
The report said a number of actions can be taken to improve rural law enforcement, including:
Cooperation, coordination^ and resource-sharing among law enforcement jurisdictions.
Consolidation of training facilities to serve several small, widely dispersed agencies.
Adequate salaries and benefits Alternative budget sources in the face of a tightening Lax base
Valley Where Carol Was Born Remains 'Unspoiled'
By HUGH A. MULUGAN
AP Special Correspondent
ARNSDORF, Austria (AP) -In this winter-white Alpine Valley where Silent Night was bom more than a century and is half ago, Christmas has remained touchingly uncommercial and the old customs frozen in time.
There is no Silent Ni^t Pizza House or Hellige Nacht Gasthaus to comfort the thousands of singing pilgrims who come from choir lofts in far-off churches and colleges continents away to sing the worlds most popular Christmas carol in the shadow of the towering mountains that first echoed the simple words and haunting melody.
I am sorry but I have asked the children and not (me of them has ever heard of Ruddph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Is he very popular in your country? asked Frau Lehrerin school mistress Ottilieaigner, with an ap<doget-ic smile.
She was standing at the same pen-scratched wooden desk in the same two-room volkschule where Franz Gruber had stood on Christmas Eve in 1818, when the priest from nearby Obem-dorf asked him to compose a guitar accompaniment for a little poem he had Just written.
It was an emergency, and Father Joseph Mohr explained the dilemma that to this day every Austrian child can retell better than any Christmas tale from Dickens. The organ had broken down in St. Nikolas Church where Gruber was organist and choir director as well as being schoolmaster in Amsdorf. The poorest of church mice, legend now adds, had eaten away at the leather bellows. Unless they came i^) with something, there would be no

Christmas music at the midnight mass in Obendorf.
The history made that nigjit by the village schoolmaster and the country curate still touches this quiet, unspoiled valley with a magic that out-dazzles the starlight on the old onion-dome churches and the frost glittering in the windows of the ornate, wooden-balconied chalets.
In the tiny schoolhouse, Grubers cherubic features, balding and benign, beam down on the blond-haired children from the spot on the wall above the blackboard usually reserved in American classrooms for George Washingtons portrait.
Upstairs, his bedroom, his writing desk, his spinnet, his heavy red plush furniture and the hand-carved, beautifully costumed wooden figures that, as sacristan, he had charge of arranging around the village creche, have been lovingly preserved.
Here Silent Night is sung the way Gruber wrote it, in D major for two solo voices his bass and Mohrs tenor in harmony with a childrens choir and backed up by a zup-frigen,or pluck violin as the guitar was then called.
Frau Aigner had six boys and six girls with the sweetest voices in the school singing the carol from house to house on the Sundays of advent in faithful recreation of the little choir Father Mohr hastily assembled to learn his words and Grubers Instant music.
At midnight mass on Christmas, Silent Night echoes down the years from the voices of these children in the little onion-domed church at Amsdorf, from a trained choir and from (^ratic soloists accompanied by Grubers original guitar at the Silent Night Chapel in Obemdorf on the site of old St. Nikolas Church, washed away by floods long ago. It comes from a full or
chestra and the magnificent 1,-6(K)-pipe memorial organ in the parish church at Haliein, where Gruber died. A congregation of skiers and tourists sing it at the winter resort of Wagrain, further down the valley, where Father Mohr died, like Gruber, without knowing the immortality of their combined genius.
Fate could hardly have con-^ired to bring together two more unlikely collaborators on the Christmas hit of all time,
Gruber, then 31, was a struggling musician who had married a twice widowed woman, 13 years older and with two children, to avoid military service in the Napoleonic wars sweeping Austria. Both her husbands had preceeded him as sacristan and school master in Amsdorf.
Mohr was the illegitimate son of a musketeer who deserted both the archbishop of Salzburgs army and his mistress, a seamstress, who had to persuade Franz Wohlmot, the local hangman, to serve as godfather at the babys baptism. Two months before he wrote Silent Night the young curate, only 26, had been accused by his pastor before a church consistory of being without visible industry in pastoral affairs.
Father Noestler, the old pastor, dismissed his assistant as a poetical dreamer who wasted his time with the river boatmen in the Baurenstube, which still stands, singing songs and sucking on his long pipe. Obemdorf in those days was an important port for shipping salt from the many mines in the valley to as far away as Vienna and Budapest. In winter when the Salz-ach, a key tributary of the Danube, froze over, the boatmen with their strong tradition of folk music went from town to town giving concerts and performing plays.
Mohr was their unofficial chaplain but by the next Christ
mas he was g<me from Obemdorf and served in 10 different mountain parishes before winding up in a paupers grave in remote Wagrain, just across from where the handsome Joseph Mohr School now stands.
The disaster of the busted organ helped lift the lovely lullaby beyond the mountain walls of the snow-silent valley. When spring came and the roads reopened, organ builder Karl Mauracher arrived from the Tyrol to repair the ruptured bellows at St. Nikolas and took the song home with him.
A singing group of glove makers called the Strasser family, precursors of singing groups like the Trapp family, added it to their repertoire. They sang,R for Kaiser Josef of Austria^ Czar Alexander of Russiai^hen both were Christmas guests at Count Ludwig Von Donhoffs castle. The kaiser made it a seasonal must for his royal court orchestra. 'The czar invited the Strassers to sing the carol for him in St. Petersburg.
Another family group, the Rainer singers, took it from the Tyrol to America. New York newspapers record them singing it before Alexander Hamiltons monument on Christmas Eve 1831.
Passed from country to country on bits of musical score sheets and in tattered band books, Silent Night first appeared in print in Dresden in 1840, as a Tyrolean folk song, author then unknown. Next it was pirated to Berlin, where it turned up in a book of musical home treasures of the Germans.
It was variously attributed to Mozart, Beethoven and Josef and Michael Haydn before the abbot of the Benedictine monastery in Salzburg, which had a famous choir school and musical library, received a request from King Frederich Wil-

helm IV of Prussia for a copy of the score for his Berlin court orchestra. The abbot traced the origin of the song to its two rightful authors.
Franz Xavier Gruber, who lived to be 75, was three years
in his grave before his name appeared above the music of Silent Night. They are still not sure if the skull exhumed from the forgotten grave in Wagrain for the sculptor to cast the bronze relief which now or
naments the new St. Nikolas parish church in Obemdorf was really that of Father Joseph Mohr.
Thus the glory of Christs coming to save all men was sung for all time by a draft
dodger and a bastard. The melody lingers on, as hauntingly lovely as ever, in the frosty stillness of this Alpine Valley where Silent Nl^t is borne on the winter wind in endless r^rise.

Garbage Threatens Bury Clues To 'Missing Link'
By GALE WEY MESSEL, West Germany (UPI) Scientists who already have uncovered a SO-million-year-old crocodile with his last meal stUl in tact think they have a chance to find the
missing link if they can prevent local sanitary engineers from filling up their diggings with garbage.
Paleontological detectives began prowling the bottom of a strip mine in 1971, after a
company that had extracted more than three million tons of oil shale from it over 90 years ceased (^rations.
In those five years, professional and amateur paleontologists working the mine floor
DR. JENS FRANZ exhibits the skeleton of a 48-centiineters-long horse, extracted from a str^ mine in
West Germany, which has ceased (^rations. (UPI Photo)
have unearthed thousands of vertebrates, plants and insects, all more than 50 million years old.
The prize is the 10-foot-long crocodile, with tissue and stomach remains in tact.
Dr. Jens Franz, a paleontologist with the Senckenberg Museum of Frankfurt, where many of the Messel fossUs are displayed, says the diggings have an enormous potential.
We have yet to find any humanoid bones, Franz said. But we are hopeful. There is a possibility that the links connecting lowe: primates found in North America and Eurasia and the oldest humanoids from Egypt perhaps could be discovered here.
But Franz is worried about plans by neighboring muhic^alities to use the strip line as a garbage dump.
Franz considers the whde idea unthinkable.
Sciitists want to know something about the history of life on earth, especially the history of mans evcdutkm, he explained. Here at Messel we have the opportunity to get complete skeletons and evoi tissue of life which crawled the earth 50 million years ago. We can make fine reconstructions (rf these animals. It is an omwrtunity we cannot aff<Mrd to pass iq>.
American orileagues have told me that in the whde of North America, for instance, there is no place of this age of such importance as Messel.
Franz has organized an international protest agaimt converting the eons-old subtropical swamp into a garbage dump.
But sanitary engineers employed by the state of Hesse tasist that the needs of those alive today take precedence.
TTiis mine is perfect for a garbage dump, one oigineer said. It is located in the middle of a very dry spot so there will be no problem with seepage into the local water supply. It will save us digging costs, since the hole already is here.
Teacher Chose Racing Books
By JOHN M. WIUJS Associated Press Writer
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (AP) -What is a pretty, blonde-haired, green-eyed, former elementary school teacher named Jimmie Lu doing taking bets in the worids most lavish thorough-teed racing book?
After the divorce I needed a Job,*said Jimmie Lu Daidone, 30, the mothor of two.
Mrs. Daidone is second in charge of the race book at the new sports book in the Stardust Hotel here.
Ibe facility cost neariy $2 million, and it offers an ul-tranoodem and plush way to pte a few dollars on the ponies.
Jimmie Lu went to high school in Dallas, later graduating with a degree in de-
mentary education from Southern Methodist University.
After a short stint at teaching, she got marrtod and began traveling the thoroughbred circuit in California with her husband.
How did she get into the betting business?
Jimmie Lu said her father and her husband were both gamblers, and she likes sports, so it comes naturally.
Ive beoi around gamblers all my life, die said between phone calls as the post time neared at Belmont Park in New York.
The new Stardust operation offo^ bettm a choice of four major and five smallo- track selectkms. Wagering may also be done on baseball, college and pro football and on myriad other sp<xts evoHs nationwide.
Jimmie Lu began at the Stardust writing tickets; (me year later she is second in command.
nie favorite is football, said Jimmie Lu, noting proudly that the Stardust book handled $1.2 million alone (last years Stgier Bowl.
Jimmie Lu says she is not a womens libber, but feels that if a woman is doing the same Job and has the same cigiabilities as a man, the pay should be equal.
But I still like to be waited on, she said.
Jimmie Lu likes her Job a lot.
Its something I know and love, she said Whats wrong with taking or making a bet? I nudto a living at it and its better than being a school teacho-. Theres nevw a dull moment.
Jimmie Lu pointed to a few
able swivel chairs at their desks and watch the giant, lighted boards and the six-foot by ei^t-foot television screen.
She said some of the rebars spend all day every day in the big, quiet room.
The new facility also draws a lot of celebrities because its so plush compared to the other books in town, she added.
Jimmie Lu, with eight years in the gambling mecca, is philosophical about gambling.
Instead of having the police chasing down gamblers where its illegal, she thinks officers should spend more time going after rapists and drug peddlers.
And she admits that its more fun on her side of the counter than it used to be on the other side when she was a handi-caiq>er.
Pe<^le will bet on anything, she said.

A Good Year For Disco, Rock 'n Roll
By BRUCE MEYER
UniM Press IntematiODal
Another music year is over and for rock n roil its been the best in a iong, long time. Disco remained the hottest thing for the dance floors, but hard rock made a big comeback aboard a whole raft of top-notch new groups.
Given as much good music as weve had in the past dozen months, the idea of picking
the best of the best is sort of silly. No writer no matter bow well-versed in the pop music scene can dictate taste to anyone eise.
But naming my own favorites is too much fun to resist:

Plans have been announced for the formation of a community theater production to be held at the Roxy Theater on 629 Albemarle Street early in 1977.
As a first effort, Edward Albees play The American Dream is tentatively scheduled for a late February showing.
Scott Johnson, a student at Pitt Technical Institute, has been engaged to coordinate plans and to direct the play.
Johnson has announced that auditions for the five roles, thr female and two male, will he held at 7:30 p.m. on two dates, Friday and Saturday, January 7 and 8.
We are also interested in having people come out who can volunteer as stage hands, set and costume d^igners or who can help in any way, Johnson said. We will need people to help us in many ways.
Johnson added that if the production of The American Dream proves successful, the Roxy Theater will schedule other community productions during 1977.

Books On Photography

Whether its Christmas, post-ciuistmas or a way to say kappy New Year, a photo-gfaphic book can be a longtime reminder of someones thou^t-ftdness yours. Its a prac-tfcal way to share informaticm a inspiration with a member (4 the family or a friend in the comfort of home or as a handy companion when traveling. And vdiat a wide range to choose ffom:
Beginners Guide to Darkroom Techniques by Ralph llattersley, a Doubleday-Dol-Fhin Book, New York ($3.95). ^lis is a paperbound handbook fer amateur photographers by a no-nonsense teacher. It starts ulith the preparation and equip-n)Oit pf a darkroom, explains how to process and print films, and ends with some creative controls involved in making black-and-white pictures.
Light and Lighting in Photography by Andreas Feini-nger, published by Amphoto, Garden ty, N.Y. ($11,95), is an important step towards more creative photography for serious hobbyists.

"Photography: Whats the Law? by Robert M. Cavello and Stuart Kahan, Crown Publishers. N.Y. ($9.95), reports on how legal ramifications affect photographers and users of photographs. Amateur photographers are rarely touched by photographys legal responsibilities. But if you wish to take pictures in museums or of money, stamps or celebrities; or if you want to sell or publish pictures, then you should be aware--of the restrictions and guidelines ... and there are many. Cavello, an attorney, teaches photographic law at New Yorit University and is the legal counsel for the Society of Photographers in Conununication (ASMP), the organization whose members include hundreds of outstanding professional photographers.
The Daguerreotype in America by Beaumont New-hall is a third revised edition by Dover Publications ($6.00) in paperbound format. Daguerreotypes flourished mightily for 20 years after their introduction to this country in 1839. In that period, a cross-section of Americans young and old, rich and poor, wdl-known and unknown - sat Immobile for from 20 to 40 seconds to have their likenesses recorded. A surprisingly large number of these valuable relics were recorded
for posterity and many of them survived through 125 years, preserved in their velvet-lined cases. Nevdiall, noted i^ioto-his-torian, has also preserved the story of Americas pioneers in daguerreotypy and the book includes 104 examples of their art. It is a valuable reference bo(* for scholars, collectors and historians, makes inte^ esting reading for photo hobbyists and may perhaps spark the discovery of other daguer-reotypes still hiddoi in attics around the country.
I must add that Dova Publications is a veritable treasure trove of original and reprint material on pbotogra[rfiy and other hobby interests like magic, folklore, antiques, music, art instruction, etc., in inexpensive paperbound bo(^.

Salvaging Chinese Antiques
By K.P. HONG
MOKPO, South Korea (AP) Navy frogmoj, every time they dive, are scot^ing up dozens of priceless Chinese antique articles from the wreckage of an ancient treasure ship lying on a seabed 65 feet under water off the southwestern coast near this port city.
More than 600 vases, plates, vessels and other coveted ceramic and antique articles of Chinas Sung Dynasty era, dating back to the lOth through 12th centuries, have been collected in what has been described as Operation Treasure Hunt.
A government cultural property research team in charge of the operation said it was confident of retrieving at least several hundred more such articles before winter set in.
The team says preliminary studies by scbdars and experts of antiquities rated the retrieved articles as highly valuable archeol(^cal specimens and priceless antiques.
Curio collectors may pay as much as half a million ddlars apiece for some of the articles, said an archeologist.
The operation began after several pieces of pottery snagged in fishermens nets
earlier in the year were sold for hundreds of (Wlars each to local curio dealers. A treasure rush followed among collectors.
Until then the fishermen had avoided casting their nets in and around the area because on occasion they and their forefathers before them had caught shabby-looking old pieces of pottery coated with seabed mire. The pottery, they believed. brou^t bad luck.
Informed of the treasure ship, the cultural research team was sent to Mokpo in October. It later began the operation in coordination with local pdice and navy elements.
Gone, a tranquil beach scene focusing on a pair of worn tennis shoes abandoned in the sand, has drawn a considerable amount of attention to its creator.
Artist James H. CYomartie, who grew up in (Charlotte, studied art at East Carolina University.
The beach scene print is a realistic rendering of sand and grass and shoes. The first print of the edition of 500 was purchased by Luther Hodges. Jr.. a Tar Heel banker
Collectors of Oomarties work include Nelson Rockefeller, Sen. Edward Brooke of Massachusetts; and the late colector R(^r Firestone. His work is in the permanent collections of several museums and is currently being handled by three galleries the Bannon Gallery in Nantucket; the Main Street Collection Gallery in Cljarlotte; and the Naples Gallery in Naples, Fla.
Cromartie curraitly lives in Naples, where he maintains a studio.

Oklahoma Crushes Wyoming, 41-7
By JIM HATTLEY Associated Press Writo-
TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) - Oklahoma quarterback Thomas Lott, named Offensive Player of the Game after guiding the eighth-ranked Sooners to a 41-7 romp over Wyoming in Saturdays Fiesta Bowl, did what he had set out to do.Pirates Are 24th
East Carolina Universitys fbotball team flnished the 1976 season with the highest natkmal ranking ever a'ttain-ed by the school, according to Football News.
The national football newsweekly listed the Pirates in 24th place on thdr Bnal standings chart for the recently-completed season.
Undefeated Maryland was listed in 12th place in the rankings, while North Candna, one of two teams to stop the Pirates this year, flnished in 30th place.
East Candna had the highest ranking of any team in North and South Candina.
We wanted to win big so we could play a lot of young people and show the nation just what kind of players we have, said the jubilant s(^homore.
Lott said Oklahoma probably surprised a lot of people by scoring on its first two possessions of the game. But he said his club got sloppy after that, and 1 figured we needed some more points.
The Sooners heeded his wishes, building a 41-0 lead before Wyomings Cowboys got on the scoreboard in the closing seconds.
Lott rushed for 77 yards, third-best for the Sooners, and drew praise from Coach Barry Switzer.
Thomas did a very good job executing the option and he deserves the outstanding offensive player trophy, Switzer said.
Lott countered that its easy to look good when you have guys in front of you blocking and running backs who can run with the ball and block just as well. The award could have gone to some of the other guys on our team as easily as me. Halfback Elvis Peacock set the stage for the Sooner onslaught when he scored the first touchdown of the afternoon on a three-yard run in the opening quarter. That capped an 80-
yard drive which opened the nationally televised game, played under sunny skies before a crowd of 48,714.
Wyoming, which lost one fumble and suffered five interceptions, was unable to get any offense generated after being kept in the hole most of the day by the eighth-ranked Sooners.
Oklahoma wound up its season with a 9-2-1 record while Wyoming finished 8-4.
Peacocks second touchdown came in the third qsarter when he took a pitchout and ran 15 yards around right end to make

Oklahomas top ground-gain-er was reserve halfback Woody Shepard, wo picked up 85 yards on nine carries and scored a fourth-quarter touchdown. The Sooners also got touchdowns from halfback Horace Ivory and fullback George Cumby.
Ivory, vrtio gained 54 yards rushing, scored the second touchdown of the day for the Sooners on a four-yard run with 3:22 left in the opening quarter.
Kicker Uwe Von Schamann got the Sooners only scores In the second quarter, booting field goals of 32 and 50 yards for a 20-0 halftime lead. The 50-yarder broke a Fiesta Boi record of 43 yards set by Mark Uselman of Brigham Young in 1973.
Cumby and Shq)ard are reserves who were called into service in the fourth quarter. Cumby scored on a four-yard run and Sh^ard on an eight-yard scamper.

Only Jamesville and North Pitt failed to land a first team selection on this years team.
Rose High Schools Rampants, who suffered throu^ a 1-9 year, did gain some relief by having five from its team picked, four of them defensive players, where Rose had its best part of the year.

Hard Times For Vikings
By TOM FOREMAN JR.
Reflector Sports Writer
The old prophecy says that time heals ail wounds. If this is the case, D.H. Conley may want to ask for an extension of the schedule through the spring. Maybe even into the summer if it is possible.
Between inexperience and injuries, the Vikings should fold up and try again next season. But coach Shelly Marsh has no plans to give up now.
We arent losing any confidence, Marsh said. The team is willing to work hard.
And work hard they must. Marsh lost two of his t<^ players early. Brian Mills left the team for personal reasons, and Byron Tyson suffered an ankle Injury that will sideline him for the rest of the year. Randy Hibbert sprained a wrist while trying to break a fall, thus hampering his play. Randolph King returned to action last weekend after spraining his ankle, but he is not yet at top form, as is witnessed by his 2-for-8 shooting performance against Bertie.
With the injuries piling up. Marsh has been forced to use many sophomores in order to combat Viking losses. Darryl ^Thompson was the other guard ^th King in the Bertie game; he hit one of his nine shots from the floor. With guard play being such an important factor in any offense. Marsh cannot afford too
many more bad shooting nights. He fciieves the outside shooting will develop soon.
The Vikings, though short on guards, are abundant along the front lines, boasting one of the bigger lines in the conference. Six-foot-ten Alton Tyson scored 22 points against Bertie, but along with the rest of the team, has been unable to muster strength on the offensive boards. Johnny Streeter starts at strong forward at 6-3, and Bernard Hawkins is on the other wing. Marsh said Hawkins did not have a good night against Bertie, but that he, too, is bound for improvement.
There is only one senior on the squad, the strong forward Streeter. Tyson is in his first year, and only four lettermen remain. Marsh, however, remains undaunted.
Our big problem is inexperience. We got blown out at North Pitt, but Im not worrying. At the end, I think well be there, he said, alluding to the playoffs.
Marsh feels the conference title will be taken by a Pitt County school, with North Pitt leading the way, and Ayden-Grifton and Farmville Central fighting it out, maybe with Conley,
Marsh has termed the problem of getting the team going a challenge. To get any type of team out on the floor at all. Marsh has already licked one problem.

Decision On Won't Come
Injured Players Until Game Time
By BRUCE LOWnr APSpcMts Writer
OAKLAND (AP) - Pittsburgh Ck>ach C3iuck Noll said Saturday he wouldnt know until game time Sunday whether running backs Franco Harris, Rocky Bleier and Frenchy Fuqua will be able to play in the Steelers American Conference championship game against Oakland.
They didnt work out at all today, Noll said at a news conference Saturday. They didnt practice because they couldnt do it without medication. 1 wish I could tell you I knew what was going to happen, but I just cant. I dont know. 'The team doctor doesnt know. The players themselves dont know.
Harris, who rushed for 1,128 yards during the National Football Leagurs regular season, has badly bruised ribs. Bleier, who gained 1,036, has a sprained toe. And Fuqua, a ifserve back, has a pulled calf muscle.
Reggie Harrison and Jack Oelc^laine are next in line on the Steelers depth chart at running back. Harrison played in much of Pittsburghs opening-round playoff against Baltimore, scoring a pair of touchdowns in the 40-14 rout.
Noll refused to discuss what contingency plans he hed in the event that Harris and his other running backs cant play. He also would not discuss the likelihood of the Steelers using a substitute placekicker in place of Roy Gerela. who also sat out Saturdays practice, nursing a groin pull.
Gerela played in most of the game in Baltimore, but reserve center Ray Mansfield kicked one extra point late in the game.
Im not going to lose any sleep over what exists, Noll said. There are things you have to deal with and whatever happens, we will deal with it. Well acc^ whatever comes. Oakland Coach John Madden refu^ to qjeculate on whether
his Raiders would be seeing the Steelers two 1,000-yard gainers, or to discuss how much of an advantage Oakland might have if they are sidelined.
Ive been burned too many times trying to guess about injuries, about whos going to play and whos not going to, Madden said.
Further, neither coach would discuss the fever-pitch emotion surrounding Sundays renewal of one of the leagues hottest rivalries.
Tommy Bell will be the referee for the game which has attracted huge interest because of violence which occurred between these two teams in the opening game of the season. The other officials are umpire A1 Conway; head linesman Leo Miles; line judge Bruce Alford; back judge Stan Javie, and field judge Jimmy Cole.
The game time weather was expected to be fair, with temperatures in the mid-50s.
Madden thought the rivalry has blown this game completely out of proportion. I have the feeling the games beai forgotten. he said. Its being treated like World War III.
Everybody seems to forget that its only a game, a game between two fine football teams, that its going to be decided on passing and running, on blocking and tackling, on basics, not on rhetoric. If rhetoric won games, wed s6out and sign good talkers instead of players.
Most of the rhetoric has involved Oakland safety George Atkinson, who gave Pittsburgh wide receiver Lynn Swann a
concussion in the season opener, won 31-28 by the Raiders, and broke the nose of New England tight end Russ Francis in Oaklands 24-21 playoff triumph over the Patriots a week ago.
Madden said his primary concern that some players might be cau^t up in the emotionalism and lose their concentration. But both he and Noll said they were sure the players had not been distracted by it and that neither team would be seeking to play excessively rou^ on Sunday.
Neither coach felt that the potential for violence would result in the officials calling a greater number of penalties to keep the game from getting out of hand.
I hope it wouldnt come down to that, Madden said, and I think it wont. None of the officials worked the Raid-ers-Patriots game.
Madden declined to predict what kind of game might be played between these teams, battling in the AFC championship for the third straight year. The Steelers, taking a 10-game winning streak into the contest, have used the last two AFC title games as stuping stones to Super Bowl crowns.
The Raiders go into Sundays
game having won their last 11.
I gave up years ago trying to say what kind of game we might see on any particular weekend, Madden said.
Take the first week of the season. It was a real high-scoring game, which nobody anticipated. Take last Sundays game in Baltimore. You had the No. 1 offense (the Colts) against the No. 1 defense. Everyone figured it would be close. It wasnt. You had a great running team (the Steelers) against a great passing team. What happened? The Steelers passed real well and the Colts didnt do much of anything.

Anderson Quits Pirate Position
Wright Anderson, assistant football coach at East Carolina University has resigned to take a similar position with the University of Illinois, it has been learned.
Anderson, who has completed his third season with the Pirates, announced late last week that he had resigned from East Carolina, and will assume his duties with Illinois early in January.

Going Rough For Greene Centra
By TOM FOREMAN JR. Reflector Sports Writer
It has not been a seasmi to sing about for the Greene Central girls basketball team. So far, opposing teams have been scoring pretty much at will against the Ewes. The smallest total the Ewes have permitted this season is 42, and they lost that game by 20.
Coach Jim Fulghum has practiced as much patience as any coach with an 0-7 team. He has two girls back from last years team, but they were only occasional starters from last season. There is only one senior on the team and she has not played much. Fulghum sees a future for his young team, however.-
Weve played some good ball at times, but its going to take some time. Confidence and experience are the biggest factors. Weve got some people who can shoot, but we dont know how to react to some situations.
The problem may be whether Greene Central is reacting at all. They scored a high of 35 points in their fourth game of the year, followed by a 33 in game two. Their totals for the rest of their games are 22,23,22, and 22. Last Saturday, they broke the drought with 37 points against Elm City, yet they lost by 19.
Linda Warren is the lone senior on the team. In seven games, she scored only two
points. Junior guards Shan Brown and Marilyn Yelvoti have been lacking point produ tion, but with experience, the performances should Improve.
Three sophomores bold do the front line. Sarah Taylo r ai Cindy Creech are on the win and Iris Pridgen is at, cente Pridgen has averaged less thi four points per game; Taji almost reaches five points, ai Cteech, almost two points p< game.
Karen Ham serves as backu at the guard spot, but has onl two points for the season. Paida Brown and Laurie Brann give further support to the giard corps. Teresa Harris is another inexperienced forward, who, with time, will improve.
The Greene Central girls team must buUd for the future. The most that Ful^um can hope for Is some good overall performances from his team, and that the experience from this years games will help mold his team into a contender next year.
All we have to do is sell the program, Fulghum said. Thats my job. Without the victories, keeping the girls basketball program running will be a task. But Fulghum says the girls on the squad give him their maximum efforts now.
For the present, the Ewes can settle for just trying to improve. The future will answer the questions about their overall talent.
Fran Seeking Perfect Game
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (AP) Minnesotas Fran Tarkenton, holder of all the National Football Leagues career passing records, says he still hasnt played to his fullest ability.
My individual challenge is to perfect my skillsideally, to play the perfect game. said the 36-year-old quarterback, adding that he still gets a kick out of doing special things in life.
Tarkenton is a major reason the Vikings are rated 4Mi-point favorites over the Los Angeles Rams Sunday in the National Football Conference championship game at Minnesota, where the game-time temperature is expected to be around 10 degrees above zero.
Minnesota cruised to its fourth straight NFC Central Division title with an 11-2-1 record, the best in the conference. Its the eighth time in nine seasons the Vikings have made the playoffs.
Tarkenton says the pressure at this stage of the year is no different from the regular season.
This week the pressure will be to play well lough to defeat the Rams and Tarkenton thinks it will take a big effort.
Id like to see us play as well as we did in the 1973 NFC championship game at Dallas, said Tarkenton, referring to a 27-10 victory over the Cowboys that pn^lled the Vikings to Super Bowl VIII. That was the best weve played since Ive been here.
Vikings Coach Bud Grant said Friday that Amos Martin would replace Jeff Siemon at middle linebacker. Siemon suffered a pulled muscle in the calf of his left leg against Washington last week.
The 6-foot-4, 230-pound Martin is a fifth-year player from Louisville University.
Los Angeles, which finished the year 10-3-1 to win its fourth straight NFC Western Division title, will be at full strength for the game.
The Rams arrived in Minnesota Friday night and scheduled a workout today following the Vikings practice.

Nationai Championship Will Be Decided By End Of This Week
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) -Whenever I look at a new groiq) of freshmen coming to play basketball for the University of North Carolina, it makes me feel like I want to stay four more years, sa}rs Dean Smith, coach of North Carolinas 10th-ranked Tar Heels.
However, Smith knows that coaches dont live forever, and be hinted in a recent interview that he may some day forsake coaching for another line of work.
Smith took over the North Carolina position in 1962 after Frank McGuire departed for South Carolina.
In an interview with the Winston-Salem Sentinel, Smith said he was 99 per cent sure I would rule out any pro coaching offer now, thoui I wasnt so sure at one time.
I have no desire to become an athletic director, he continued. But this doesnt mean I never plan to leave coaching. There are other things one can become besides an athletic director.
North Carolina has twice offered him the athletic directorship, Smith said, most recently in the spring after Homer Rice left to become head football coach at Rice University.
They also talked to me in 1968, before Homer came, Smith said. But neither time did I consider leaving coaching. Of course, rumors like that always pop up somewhere because there are always some people trying to get rid of me. Why does he continue to coach?
I love the ritual, he said. Recruiting in the ^ring, camps and clinics in the summer, practice in the fall and, in the winter, the easiest part the games. I find each change of the seasons gives me a lift, rejuvenates me.
BasketMl recruits over the years ha^only clmged in as much as *e so many
more of them, he said. The quality of the super blue-chippers hasnt changed that much, but the numbers have gone up.

Exactly 17 weeks after the season got under way, college footballs national championship finally will be decided next Saturday on the playing fields of New Orleans and Pasa-doia...and maybe Dallas.
The season actually ends next Sunday, Jan. 2, when lOth-rank-ed Texas A&M and Florida wind things iqj in the anticli-mactic Sun Bowl.
By then, it might be obvious who will be the logical successor to Oklahomas two-time national champs...or it just might all be up in the air until The Associated Press poll crowns the king. The final rankings will be released at 6:30 a.m., EST, Tuesday, Jan. 4.
As far as Johnny Majors is concerned, all his No. 1-ranked Pitt team has to do is beat
fifth-ranked Georgia in the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans come New Years Day and the 11-0 Panthers will have their first national crown in 39 years.
If we win, theres absolutely no doubt well be national champions, predicts Majors.
Well, thats not quite as cer tain as the fact that Majors is leaving Pitt following the gamt to return to his alma mater, the University of Tennessee.
There may have been some feelings when I announced 1 was leaving, he says, but were still the same team we were whai we won those 11 games. When I call a play, theyll perform it to the best of their ability. Were still the best football team in the country.
Meanwhile, out on the West Coast, Coaches Bo Schembech-ler of sec(id-ranked Michigan and J(rfm Robinson of No. 3
Upset Win In La Prevoyante
MIAMI (AP) - Forty Nine Sunsets made an overpowering iate run Saturday to defeat favored Cycylya Zee by six lengths in the $43,200 La Prevoyante Handicap for fillies and mares at Calder Race Course.
Calders 10-race program, including the La Prevoyante and its $27,510 top prize, was the only horse track action in the nation Christmas Day. It drew a crowd of 12,382.
Forty Nine Sunsets, ridden by Carlos Marquez, ran the 11-16-mUe in in 1:46 to pay $5.80, $2,-80 and $3.00. Cycylya Zee, the even money pick, returned $2.60 and $2.60. Satans Cheer, who finished a length behind Cycylya Zee and 2>ii lengths in front of Frond, was $5.60 to show.
Fourteen started in the stakes, but it was a cleanly nm race. Leading contenders Co-pano and Redundancy were scratched when the race was switched from the grass to the main course Saturday morning.
Cycylya Zee took the early lead with Regatela chasing her. Sort Of Frisky was third, followed by Satans Cheer, Fun
Forever and Hinterland.
Regatela cut Cycylya Zees lead to a neck at the half-mile pole and stayed with her on the top of the stretch where the favorite gained a one-length margin.
Forty Nine Sunsets was in 12th place around the first turn and 10th on the far turn, seemingly with no chance at all to be in the picture. But she made a big move leaving the far turn. She was eighth at the quarter pole but Marquez found a big hole between horses and Forty Nine Sunsets went into second at the ei^th pole.
She breezed by (?ycylya Zee nearing the 16th pole and drew out with every stride. Cycylya Zee went all out to save second over Satan's Cheer.
Forty Nine Sunsets, a 3-year-old daughter of Sailor, has been in the mffljey 14 of 18 career starts, winning seven races. She won the Azalea and Aspidistra Stakes at Calder last summer but was sidelined from June to November with an injury. She has won two in a row after finishing third in her first comdMick start.

Southern California have beoi waging a campaign to get the winner of tteir Rose Bowl meeting named national champion. Both clubs are 10-1, as is Georgia.
I dont know if this game could be for the title, but it should be, says Schembechler. The winner of this game should be No. 1, echoes Robinson.
It probably would have come down to that if the respective teams hadnt stumbled en route to Pasadena. Both were ahead of Pitt in the preseason ratings, but Southern Cal dn^iped its opener to Missouri 46-25 while Michigan lost late in the campaign to Purdue 16-14.
I dont think it helped us by losing that game, Schembechler said in a monumental piece of understatement.
And Robinson wasnt exactly thrilled with the Trojans loss to Missouri.
There has to be a better way to find out youre not doing the job, he says. We learned some things about ourselves. Any time you lose, you learn something about yourself.
What did Robinson learn?
If we had beaten Missouri, we could be No. 1 now. And if Michigan had beatei Purdue, it would be No. 1.
And what if unbeatm, untied, fourth-ranked Maryland beats No. 6 Houston in the Cotton Bowl? Unless a miracle hap
penslike ties in the Sugar and Rose Bowlsthe Terrapins probably will wind up bemoaning the fates that forced them to play a schedule without a Top Twenty team <m it.
The weeks line-up of eight bowl games begins Monday ni^t with a Gator Bowl match betweoi two of college footballs greatest names15th-ranked Notre Dame and Penn State, which is tied for 20th.
On Friday afternoon its No. 19 North Carolina and Kentucky in the Peach Bowl and on New Years Eve, ninth-ranked Texas Tech meets No. 13 Nebraska in the Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl.
On New years Night, after the Sugar, Rose and Cotton Bowls have impressed the voters one way or another, the Orange Bowl pits Woody Hayes and llth-ranked (^o State against No. 12 Colorado and Bill Mallory, who once coached under old Woody.
For a change, the Orange Bowl will be only for show and wont have a say in deciding the national championship.
We dont look at it as a down bowl, says Mallory. I dont think about rankings. Well be ready, and I know Woody gets his team ready.
Just ask Woody.
Any time I go into any bal-Igame not playing as hard as 1 can, then its time for me to walk into Die sunset, he says.
No Relaxation For Mr. Madden
OAKLAND (AP) - Yes, Virginia Madden, your husband is working again on Christmas Day.
Its just as well, the wife of the Oakland Raiders coach realizes.
The Raiders, in eight years under Madden, have failed only once to reach the National Football League playoffs. ^
Madden and Pittsburgh Steel-ers Coach Chuck Noll put their teams through light workouts Saturday at the Oakland Coliseum. On Sunday, either an 11-game Oakland winning streak or a lO-game Pittsburgh string will end in the American Conference championship game.
Its the third straight Steel-ers-Raiders AFC title game matchup. Pittsburg won the first two, 24-13 in 1974 and 16-10 last year, and went on to Super Bowl championships.
The Steelers pair of 1,000-yard rushers. Franco Harris and Rocky Bleier, .go into Sundays game hampered by injuries. That could put extra pressure on the Steel Curtain defense to shut down Oakland's
high-powered offense headed by Ken Stabler, the NFLs leading passer.
Stabler completed 67 per cent of his passesthe seamd-best percentage in NFL history and hit for 27 touchdown passes. The Steelers defense recorded five shutouts and allowed only two touchdowns over the last nine weeks of the season.
The team that wins will be the one that holds down the turnovers and makes the big plays, like in third-and-10 situations, said Stabler, who has seen turnovers prove so costly in the last two championship games against the Steelers.
Casey Stengel, playing for the New York Giants in 1923, hit the first two home runs blasted in Yankee Stadium.

Former
Making
CINCINNATI (AP) - Jim Brosnan is listed in Whos Who in the Midwest as a free-lance writer. He agrees. Others may not.
The former Cincinnati Reds pitcher has an unfinished novel about baseball hes been working on for two years.
Since 1963, when he traded his baseball glove for a typewriter on a full-time basis, Brosnan has had published two short pieces of fiction and several magazine articles.
It was with his writing and not his pitching that Brosnan gained fame when he combined the two talents in a diary of the 1959 baseball season entitled The Long Season.
The book has been described as a forerunner of other in-
Pitcher Jim Brosnan Is His Living Writing Now
side looks at baseball, such as Jim Boutons Ball Four.
I was very naive, said Brosnan in an interview from his home in Morton Grove, 111. I was writing as a guy who liked to read and wrote it the way I would have liked to have seen it if I were picking it out to read.
I wasnt aware I was breaking any taboos or attacking the establishment, or feel as if I was a social revolutionary.
People such as Bouton and (Leonard) Shecter deliberately went at a subject with malicious forethought; I thought more Shecter than Bouton. Shecter thought thats what I did.
As a player, Brosnans critics were more numerous.
Santa Anita Opening Season
ARCADIA, Calif. (AP) -Santa Anitas 40th thoroughbred racing season opens Tuesday with an East vs. West rivalry and an opportunity for fans to learn the metric system.
The $40,000 Palos Verdes Handicap for sprinters at six furlongs starts off the battling for dollars by horsemen and bettors.
All told, there will be an estimated $10 million in purses for this 78-day meeting, the longest in Santa Anita history.
Lured by the money, approximately 200 horses from the East and Midwest have arrived for this meeting.
Eight of the Santa Anita stakes will be worth $100,000 or more, highlighted by the $250,-000 Santa Anita Handicap on March 6. The event has been the tracks main attraction since 1935 when it was inaugurated as the nations initial hundred-grander.
No horse has been able to capture the event twice.
With the move toward the metric system in the United States, the metric distances of races will appear next to the usual mile and furlong measurements on the Santa Anita program pages.
'These metric distances will be listed as "about since there is a slight difference between a furlong, one-eighth ^of a mile.
and a round number of meters. For example, the metric equivalent of a furlong is 201.168 meters.
However, Santa Anita races will be carded according to the past measurement of miles and portions of miles so the record comparisons will be valid.
Leading the record-shattering list of candidates for the 1977 Santa Anita Handicap are two-time California Horse of the Year Ancient Title, the Oak Tree meeting champion King Pellinore, Hollywood Derby winner Crystal Water, Stardust Mel and Great Contractor, triumphant in New Yorks Jockey Club Gold Cup.
'The other $100,0(K) events are the Charles H. Strub Stakes, Feb. 6, for 4-year-olds; the La Canada Stakes, Feb. 13; San Antonio Stakes, Feb. 20; Santa Margarita Handicap for the gals title, Feb. 27; San Luis Rey Stakes, March 20; Santa Anita Derby, March 27, and the marathon San Juan Capistrano Handicap on April 10.
The La Canada Stakes, for 4-year-old fillies at V/s miles, and the San Antonio Stakes at the same distance for handicap horses, both were increased in value to reach the $100,000 plateau.

Up to a point my career deserves a lot of joking, he admitted.
That certain point came in the 1959 season. 'That was when he was obtained by the Reds from the St. Louis Cardinals and he entered the world of then-Reds Manager Fred Hut chinson.
Hutch knew I could pitch, he said. I wasnt sure. He was determined for me to be as good as he thought I could be.
His friendship with Hutchinson affected Brosnans ability to write about the man who was dying of cancer. Life magazine commissioned him to write his story.
Brosnan telephoned Hutchinson. By the time they were ready to hang up, they were both in tears.
Today I could be more objective, claims Brosnan, who went to high school and college here. 1 still have a file of seven or eight pages on the bittersweet legend of Fred Hutchinson. < Im sorry now I hadnt gone out and sold it.
Brosnan began being an effective relief pitcher in 1960 and was a mainstay for the 1961 pennant winning Reds.

Scout Is Dead
NEW YORK (AP) - Bill Skiff, a longtime New York Yankee scout who spent 55 years in organized baseball, died Saturday morning at the age of 81.
Skiff, of Bronxvle, N.Y., had been a catcher, minor league manager, farm director and scout, beginning his baseball career in 1916. He was a scout with the Milwaukee Brewers when he retired in 1970.
He played briefly for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1921 and for the Yankees in 1926.
Skiffs wife, Dorothy, died Aug. 29. He is survived by two children, William Skiff Jr., and Mrs. Gertrude Lapham; eight grandchildren, and five great grandchildren.
Funeral arrangements were incomplete.

BLOOMINGTON, Minn. (AP) Ask Bud Grant what to expect in Sundays National Football Conference playoff game between Minnesota and Los Angeles and the Vikings coach Just laughs.
Im the last guy who knows, Grant Said Saturday. Thats why Ive got all this gray hair.
Rams Coahc Chuck Knox doesnt have gray hair yet, but that doesnt mean he knows any more about what will happen Sunday than Grant does.
These two teams went at each other for five quarters back in September and settled nothing, finishing tied at 10-10. In that game, the Vikings passed almost at will but couldnt run on the Rams. Los Angeles, on the other hand, had an effective ground game working but got very little through the air.
What happened last time wont affect this game, said Knox. We expect a real toi#i game, but I think were ready to play.
Grant sees similarities between the two clubs. Were very

Stobart To Try For Success
wrote another book called Pennant Race.
Brosnan, who had an 8-3 year in 1959, finished with a career-best 10-4 mark in 1961. He went downhill after that and the Reds traded him shortly after the 1963 season began to the Chicago WHITE Sox where he finished his career.
He has written several other baseball books and claims he now watches baseball games all the time on television.
My wife says its my only occiqiation, he laughed.
If his career disappointed anyone, Brosnan says it was his mother.
She always wanted me to be a doctor, he said.
Pro-Am
Opener
MONTEREY, Calif. (AP) -A1 Geiberger and Roger Mal-tbie, two of golfs top money winners of 1976, are among those shooting for some of the $78,(X)0 in unofficial prize money offered in the annual Monterey pro-am tournament which precedes the (^ning of the 1977 tour.
Other tour regulars scheduled to tee off in Mondays first round include Forrest Fezler, Rod Funseth, (3eorge Archer, Bob Wynn, Larry Ziegler, Buddy Allin and Bob Gilder. The defending champion of the four-day event Js young David Glenz, another touring pro.
The pre-tour event, with a field of 168 pros and 252 amateurs, is sponsored this year by Spalding.
Eight of the pros, including Geiberger and Maltbie, won events on the 1976 Professional Golfers Association tour. Geiberger won the Greensboro and Milwaukee open and totaled $194,821, whe Maltbie won the Memorial Classic at Jack Nick-laus new course in Ohio and finished with $177,736 in tour prize money.
Three courses. Laguna Seca, Rancho Canada and the Fort Ord Bayonet layout, will be used on the first three days of the tournament. Thursdays final round, with the field cut to the low 70 pros, will be played at Laguna Seca.
TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) - Chuck Stobart, new head football coach at the University of Toledo, plans to basically copy his past success at the University of Michigan to improve upon the Rockets 3-8 season of 1976.
And Michigan Coach Bo Schembechler believes Stobart is man to do it.
I dont know how Toledo could have hired a better man, Schembechler said. Chuck has contributed tremendously to our football program and more than just coaching on the field. Michigan is headed for the Rose Bowl on New Years Day. Toledo finished the fall with a 2-6 conference record.
He is a tremendous football man. He knows football, but more than that he is an idea man. He is an excellent recruiter and a really tireless worker, Schembechler said.
rhe guy can go all day. I am really sorry to see him go. Stobart, a native of Mid-
Ohio, where he worked with Schembechler who was then coachat Miami.
I know what I want to do defensively, Stobart said. We will be an angle (defense) team.
Stobart said Toledo will be an option football team out of the T formation. He believes option football will put the most pressure on the defense and the option out of the T allows a team to be more versatile.
Basically we will do what we did at Michigan, Stobart said. But we h(^ to pass the football a little bit more. We want to pass the ball when we want to, not when the opposition makes us.
Top priority at spring practice will be to find a quarterback for the option attack.
That will be important. But prior to that we are going to stress conditioning. Our program is going to put great emphasis on physical condition, he
dleport, Ohio, had been offensive 4aid. coordinator for Michigan since Stobart succeeds Jack Murphy 1969. Before that he was at Mar- at the Mid-American Conference shall, Cincinnati and Miami of school.
Paladins Open Their Tourney
GREENVILLE, S.C. (UPI) -The 17th annual Poinsettia Classic opens Wednesday at the 6,000-seat Memorial Auditorium with Furman, the only team with a losing record, expected to battle Columbia for the title.
The Paladins, 2-3, may find their opening round game against Navy more than they can handle, however.
Navy, 5-3, is off to its best start in 15 years under new coach Bob Hamilton and includes among its conquests a 71-67 victory over highly respected Pennsylvania. The Citadel, the fourth team in the tournament, lost by 38 points to the Quakers earlier this year.
The Middies, who meet Furman in the opening round at 9 p.m., are ranked first in the nation defensively despite Navys 6-foot-7 height limitation.
Navy is paced by 6-5 forward Kevin Sinnett, who is averaging 14.9 points and and 8.2 rebounds a game. Junior Hank Kuzma, a 6-6 center, is also a key to the Middies attack with an average of 12.6 points and 7.3 rebounds per game.
Furman will counter with 6-8 freshman standout Jonathan Moore, who is among the nations leaders in scoring and rebounding. Moore is averaging 26 points and 13 rebounds per game.
The Paladins have won the tournament three times, and
The Citadel has won it twice. Navy and Columbia are making their first appearances in the post-Christmas classic, which won a renewed vote of
confidence from its backers recently despite poor attendance the past few years.
. Youth will be a key factor in the tournament. There are only sbc seniors on all four squads combined.
Columbia, 4-3, features sophomore Ricky Free, brother of Philadelphia 76ers guard Lloyd Free, the team leader in scoring at 16.7 points per game. Alton Byrd, a 5-7 playmaklng guard, is averaging 12.4 points per game and has had as many as 14 assists in one game.
Im pleased with where we are riit now, said Coach Tom Penders.

much alike, personnel wise, he said. The teams havent changed a great deal since we piayed inS^tember.
The major differences are the development of Ahmad Rashad at wide reciever for Minnesota and the absence of linebakcer Rick Kay for Los Angeles. Kay, who made the tie-saving interception in the final seconds of the overtime period, underwent knee surgery later in the season and his job went to Jim Youngblood.
The Vikings wili have a change at linebacker, too. Amos Martin will start in the middle, replacing Jeff Siemon, who pulled a calf muscle in Minnesotas 35-20 first round playoff victory over Washington last week.
Siemon did not practice ail week but Grant did not rule out using him at some point in Sundays game.
This is the season of miracles, isnt it? said Grant.
The Rams certainly hope so. This is their third straight NFC championship game and theyre still lookking for their first berth in the Super Bowl.
I hope. said Knox, that the third time is a charm.
The weather, a concern for most of the week, probably wont be a factor. The National Weather Service forecast temperatures in the upper )s Sunday with variabie winds of five to 10 miles per hour and a chance of snow flurries. For Viking-land, thats almost balmy.
The weather is fine and the field is in great shape, said Knox, whose Rams took a brief look at Metropolitan Stadium Saturday morning. If it stays like this, it wiii be perfect.
Perfect for the Vikes, of course, would be a fourth NFC title and another shot at the elusive Super Bowl championship they have yeUo win.
Grant was asked if he thought it would be a high-scoring or low-scoring game.
Ill say low, he said.
Reminded that he had said the same thing a week ago when the Vikes won big. Grant laughed again.
That shows what 1 know, he said.
South To 31-
Romps 10 Win
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) They gave us a good Southern whipping, says defensive tackle Randy Frisch of Missouri, referring to the Souths 31-10 victory over a stunned North squad in the Blue-Gray Football Gassic.
The corporal punishment referred to by Frisch was administered largely by All-American quarterback Tommy Kramer of Rice, the games most valuable player, and running back Sidney Thornton of Northwestern Louisiana.
Playing for most of the game Friday afternoon, Kramer completed 12 of 32 pass attempts for 172 yards and three touchdowns. Thornton set a new Blue-Gray rushing record of 151 yards, including a 28-yard gallic to the Norths one-yard line, followed by a one-yard plunge for the Souths fourth and final touchdown in the lopsided event.
I was satisfied with my performance, said Kramer. But, he conceded, after we scored the first touchdown in the sec-(Ki half, things got a little sloppy.
The North was held to just three pointsa record-setting 44-yard field goal by Stanfords Mike Micheluntil late in the final period when quarterback Steve Pisarkiewicz of Missouri connected on an 11-yard pass to Keith Hartwig of Arizona for the Norths only touchdown.
Rice Coach Homer Rice, the Souths mentor, said his defensive linemen were told in practice about getting their hands up. They did and we knocked down five or six passes at the line of scrimmage.
The Grays played real well, said former Stanford CoacHUack Christiansen, coach of the North squad. They got some creaks early and put points on the scoreboard.
They got ahead early, and when you get behind and are trying to catch up, youre going to throw some interceptions. And thats what happened to us.
It was Christiansens first loss in four years as Yankee coach in the annual all-star
game.

Salvation Of An Army Came In Christmas, 1776
By DON McLEOD Asaociated Preas Writer
An American watching the orilapse of the Revdution in the early winter of 1778 called It the most hellish scene I ever bdield, frozen bodies shuffling along frozen roads, leaving crimson evidence of their suffering in the ice and snow.
An English officer surveying the carnage In their wake saw corpses without shoes or stockings and several were observed to have only linen drawers on.
The living were little better. Their tents had been captured and they slept on the ground. They were almost naked, dying of cold, without blankets, and very Ul-supplied with provisions.
A vengeful enemy nipped at their heels as they fled, beatoi and humiliated. They couldnt even dig in and defend themselves their shovels and picks had been abandoned in flight.

he couldnt hide on the Pennsylvania side. But he had intelligence of British intentions to attack Philadelphia, so soon as the ice will afford the means of conveyance.
Congress adjourned in great haste to Baltinwre, and most of Philadelphia followed the example. Only Washington stood between liberty and destruction.
He did not appear to despair and constantly showed himself to his harassed and enfeebled army with a serene and unembarrassed countenance, betraying no fears in himself and Inspiring others with confidence, wrote Lt, John Marshall, the future chief justice.
But something had to be done.
I will not despair, Washington said, and began planning. He knew the enemy was complacent, strung out from New York to Trenton and settling down to enjoy the Yule-tide. He would find a weak spot and attack it.
Christmas day at night, one hour before day is the time fixed upon for our attempt on Trenton, he ordered. For Heavens sake keep this to yourself, as the discovery of it may prove fatal to us, our

numbers, sorry am I to say, being less than I had any conception of. But necessity, dire necessity, will, nay must, justify an attempt.
And the men followed him. They stood up and marched back into the face of the dreaded enemy.
The target was the Hessian brigade at Trenton, a bloodthirsty band that had kUled more Americans than any other force in the war.
Down to the ferry the Americans marched and boarded huge ore barges in a blinding mid-winter storm. Jagged floes of ice bounced against the boats, drove them from course and crushed poles and oars.
The giant artillery commander, Henry Knox, directed the operation. Fishermen-soldiers from Marblehead, Mass., manned the boats. Back and forth the shuttle carried men and guns, horses and supplies.
Midway across, the father of his country turned in a tossing vessel and told his portly chief of artillery to shift your arse, Knox, and trim the boat.
Two other units attempting to cross at other points were defeated by the storm and ice, but Washington made it, and sat on the Jersey shore watching as the storm turned violent, lashing the struggling soldiers with rain, snow, sleet and hail.
It was as severe a night as ever I saw, said a soldier in one of the columns that didnt make it, and after two battalions were landed, the storm increased so much, and the river was so full of ice, that it was impossible to get the artillery over; for we had to walk 100 yards on ice to get on shore. Brig. Gen. John Cadwallader OTdered a retreat and it took six hours to get the advance units back across the river.
Meanwhile, Washingtons force upstream was completing Its crossing with an incredible effort.
They had started on Christmas evening, but it was 3 a.m. before they were over. Daylight would soon be upon them, they could not turn back without being discovred and annihilated.
It was close to 4 a.m. before the column began moving the final nine miles to Trenton. Washington had little hope left of surprising the Hessians, who would be awakening from their Christmas revels. But he

pushed on, hoping the blinding snow would blind the enemy as well.
It was broad daylight when the Americans reached the first German pickets, and as the Hessians fled toward town shouting a tardy alarm, the Americans felt after them screaming the battle cry of the frontier.
Knox placed his cannon to sweq> Trentons two main stress. The infantry, with powder enough to fire, sent a volley at the Hessians tumbling out into the snow, then took refuge in houses along the streets, reprlmed and fired from-the
windovps.
This most important battle lasted only a few minutes. The bewildered Hessians tried to rally, but finding their escape cut off, their commander fatally wounded and themselves surrounded by Yankee guns, they threw down their colors.
Dk Americans took more than 900 priscHiers, killed another 21 Hessians and wounded 9. Two men who froze to death on the march were the rnily American dead. Three others were wounded, including a future president, Lt. James Monroe.
11115 is a glorious day for our country, exclaimed Wash
ington as he directed the withdrawal to the safe side of the Delaware.
The American army was safe, but Washingtons crisis was not over. Enlistments were expiring for most of his soldiers at their moment of triumph. If soldiers happy to quit while they were ahead should leave him now, all still would be lost.
So Washington crossed the Delaware again, a trip perhaps as important to history as the first. And parading his army at the scene of its glory, he made his appeal.
You have worn yourselves out with fatigues and hard
ships, he acknowledged, but we know not how to spare you. If you will consent to stay only one month longer, you will render that service to the cause of liberty and to your country which you probably never can do under any other circumstances.
A few ste(q)ed fwlh, related a sergeant, and their example was followed by nearly all who were fit for duty in the regiment.
Half of them would die in the next battle or of disease In the cruel Minter. But they had turned the tide and saved their country.

The Village Smithy Becoming Vanishing Species
ByDANCmsZAR
NIWOT, Colo. (UPI) - The large fire glared iq> from beneath the brown metal hood, lighting up the gray-grizzled, soot-blackened face of Walt Atkinson.
The blacksmith pulled the red-hot plowshare from the fire, placed It (Ml the anvil his dad used in the same shop 53 years ago and picked up a battered old hammer, liie clanking sound of pounding steel rang off the dirty red brick wails.
The small blacksmith shop in this tiny Cidorado town looks the same as it did in 1923 when Atkinsons father arrived from Nebraska. It was a blacksmiths slK^ when the eldo-Atkinson took it over and has been one as far back as anyone can remember.
The sign has faded tieyond recognition. From the outside, the shop appears to be an abandoned tHiilding until you hear the ringing of the anvil. Peer through the dirty window panes. See the roaring forge, a stooped-over man in dirty blue coveralls with a hammer in his hand.
Atkinson, 60, a short, muscu-,lar man in an old blue-checkered flannel shirt, moved in a small circle practicing the techni(]ues of a craft which dates back to the ancient Greeks.
Trip Hammer Added
To sharpen the plow^are, Atkinson uses only one tool which wasnt in the shops of blacksmiths centuries ago a trip hammer powered by a series of worn leather and canvas belts.
The softoied metal is taken from the coke fire. Atkinson grasped the plowshare in a pair of tongs, placed it under a trip hammer and reaches up to pull an old broom handle which flips a switch activating the pulley mechanism. He moved to the trip hammer and pounded out an edge <mi the plowshare.
The only thing thats changed here since my father ran it is I bought that little drill press over there, said Atkin-.son as he put the plowshare on the fire again and lighted his broken old pipe.
Blacksmith sh(^, until World War I, were an essential part of almost every community in the United States, according to author Alex Bealer who talked and worked with retired and active blacksmiths before publishing The Art of Blacksmi-ttalng in 1969. The Uacksmlths trade declined with the advent of automobiles and mass production.
Fewer Every Year
There are still a few general blacksmiths left, Bealer wrote. Most of them are found in small towns, and most of them are older men who work alone and have no apprentices. One can expect to see the general blacksmith disappear entirely before the end of the twentieth century.
In Atkinson's shop, four naked light bulbs hanging from wooden beams show a long pile of scrap metal and farm equipment strewn on the soot-covered concrete floor. Branding irons hang against the walls. Near the forge are five green barrels of coal and another filled with water under a rusty hand pump.
Theres getting to be fewer blacksmith shops every year, Atkinson said. A lot of em are doing just welding. Theres some young ones talking about going into it, but they want to do only decorative iron and stuff like that. They dont care much a^t plow-work.
His FaUm-s Shop
Atkinson started working with his father at age 5. Even during short stints at a tractor factory and as an auto mechanic, he helped out at the shop.
By the time his father died in 1952, Atkinson already had taken over the business. His 85-year-old mother still drops in when she passes by to pick up her mail.
On a wooden post in the center of the shop hangs a photo of Atkinsons father
Best Way Is To Clean In Place
NEW YORK (UPI) - The best way to clean furniture cushion covers is while they are zil^ied in place on the cushions.
Z^^)ers are used to provide better fit and a neater closure than is possible with sewn-on covers, says Cornell Universitys C(Misumer Education Program. If the covers are removed for cleaning, they may shrink and become wrinkled and puckered. Dry cleaning also can damage the latex backing an the back of some cushion fabrics and cause the material to disintegrate.

Atkinson turned back to the forge and pulled the plowshare from the fire. He placed It on the anvil and started pounding again.
You dont see many anvils like this anymore. Ihats solid steel. Most of 'em today are cast iron with a steel face. They wont ring like this ot they just got a dull thud to

The plowshare went back into the fire and Atkinsons pipe was again lighted.

MThe Delly Reflector, Greenville, N.C.Sunday, December M, 197VSalvation Of An Army Cqme In Christmas, 1776
By DON McLEOD Associated Press Writer
An American watching the collapse of the Revolution in the early winter of 1776 called it the most hellish scene I ever beheld, frozen bodies shuffling along frozen roads, leaving crimson evidence of their suffering in the ice and snow.
An English officer surveying the carnage in their wake saw corpses without shoes or stockings and several were observed to have only linen drawers on.
The living were little better. Their tents had been captured and they slept on the ground. They were almost naked, dying of c(rid, without blankets, and very ill-supplied with provisions.
A vengeful enemy nipped at their heels as they fled, beaten and humiliated. They couldnt even dig in and defend themselves their shovels and picks had been aban<k)ed in flight.
John Bull laughed, saying the Yanks ran like frightened rabbits. And some did. When their enlistments expired at the end of November, the Maryland and New Jersey militia went home almost to a man, leaving
Washington with less than 3,00i' troops to face a British force four times as big.

Controversy
By ROBERT McDANIEL
OLYMPIA, Wash. (PI) -Territorial Gov. Isaac I. Stevens final solution for what he called the Indian problem 122 years ago has created more controversy that It is likely to solve.
Stevens, an Army veteran of the Mexican-American War, was the state of Washingtons first chief executive. In 1854 and early 1855, he made a whirlwind sweep through the western portion of the. territory and came back with a collection of treaties with various Indian tribes.
Soon afterward Indians decided they had beat tricked and a bloody war began.
The most important a^>ect of the treaties still in conflict is Indian fishing rights.
A large part of the problem stems from the fact Stevens (Ued before he could explain what he meant in the treaties. A major ^neral in the Union Army, he fell in the Battle of Chantilly in Virginia in 1862.
The current crisis began two-and-a-half years ago when U.S. District Judge George H. Boldt ruled that the Stevens treaties meant that Indians had a right to half the available fish.
State courts, while recognizing much more limited Indian fishing rights, have never come close to the 50-50 split.
At the state level, several courts have also ruled that in spite of what Judge Boldt said. State Fisheries Director Don Moos does not have the power to allocate salmon to ^orce treaty rights.
The State Si^reme Court currently has under advisement a request that it greatly reduce Indian fishing rights. Judge Boldts name came up, and not in a friendly manner, frequently during oral arguments tefore the state court.
For his part, outgoing Gov. Dan Evans thinks Boldt is taking a bum rap.
Many people may not like it, but rather than concentrate their fire on Judge Boldt if they are looking for a scapegoat, perhaps it is the people who signed the original treaties 120 years ago, Evans said.
Stevens knew he was in trouble over the treaties prior to his death in the war. Congress had refused to ratify all but the first treaty and Stevens had been c^isured by his own territorial legislature. He promised to some day write a Ml explanation of his aims.
I trust the time will come when I shall be able to vindicate them and show they were wise and pn^r and that they accomplished a great end, Stevens said.
On the specific subject of Indian fishing, Stevens said in a Department of Interior report;
It was thought necessary to allow them to fish at all accustomed places ^e this would not In any manner interfere with the rights of citizens, and was necessary for the Indians to obtain a subsistence.
That may have been fine 120 years ago when salmon and steelhead trout were so plenti-M that they were used for fertilizer, but as fishing increased and fish runs declined, the situation became increas-in^y tense.
Now, the unpopularity of Boldts ruling resulted in demonstrations on land and afloat.
Commercial fishermen have protested at the state capitol, and a group of gill netters decided to take matters into their own hands and fish without permission.
Thats something the Indians used todo.
A non-Indian fisherman was shot by a State Fisheries Departmeant patrol officer during one protest fish-in in Puget Sound, and it took the presaise of two Coast Guard vessels to end the protest several days later.
Stevens, himself, thought little of the judiciary and when in 1856 territorial Judge Edward M. Lander ruled against Stevens wishes in a case involving Indians, Stevens had Lander thrown in jail.
It is not that simple now, with state and fedoal courts apparently on a collision course unless the U.S. Siq}reme Court acts.

Therorizes Bible Meant To Be Sung
By ALINE MOSBY
PARIS (UPI) - The Old Testament of the Bible in Hebrew has been published down through the centuries with tiny mysterious signs scattered either above or below the letters.
Scholars down the years have believed that the odd signs were punctuation or accent marks.
But Suzanne Haik Vantoura, a French musician and composer who spent four years research on the mystery, says she has found what she regards as proof that the signs are a musical scale.
In other words, she says, much of the Bible originally was sung.
One result of her work is a record album of psalms that she and a synagogue cantor performed as she believes they were 2,000 years ago and reconsbucted according to her key of the musical code. It has been a best selling classical album in Paris since it appeared in music shops in July.
Mrs. Vantoura also has written a book, La Musique de la Bible Revelee (The Music of the Bible Revealed), which is sold -with a tape cassette on which she explains the broken code and sings examples from the Bible.
Mrs. Vantouras research has caused a profound stir in both musical and religious circles in France. Some, but not all, experts agree with her findings.
I am very pleased, the pianist and organist, a jolly, youthful-looking blonde of 64 said at her apartment.
Her sleuthing, she said, began during the war in 1940 when she and her parents, of Jewish ancestry, fled to Bordeaux to escape the invading Nazi army. There, in a house where they sought refuge, Mrs. Vantoura, then 28, studied her Bible because I am a believer. And I had nothing else to do.
After four months of reading ancient writings on the Bible and experimenting with musical scales, she was convinced that the curious symbols were musical notes.
The signs appear in the Old Testament still existing from the year 895 to this day. Some appear like the letters V and S on their sides. Others are formed by two or three dots.
But war intemgited her research and Mrs. Vantoura put aside her theory and returned to it only six years ago.
Mrs. Vantoura said she noted when and where the signs appeared in a psalm. She studied ancient music. Then she experimented by substituting notes on the musical scale for the various signs until they emerged as music. She concluded the signs under the words were fixed notes on the musical scale do re mi fa sol la ti.
Then, her theory was boosted by an "extraordinary coincidence. During her research she found the ancient words used to describe the symbols.
The words, in the old Aramaic language spoken in Western Asia in the Middle Ages, translated into English mean end, rest, jump, succession and so on. She put the words next to the signs and the musical notes and found they made sense. For example, the Aramaic word for end described the symbol that she already had decided was the last note on the musical scale.
"The key I worked out is confirmed by the ancestral names of the Biblical symbols, she said.
"One exciting moment came when I found an early Christian song almost .identical to one of the Bible songs I discovered using my key, she said.
In her research, she also studied how musical directors in ancient times taught music by gesturing with their hands as music was not written in those days. The signs above the Old Testament words, she concluded, were copied by the hands of the ancient conductors for Biblical Singers such as the Levites in the Temple of Jerusalem in 1000 B.C."
Mrs. Vantoura studied at the Center of BiUical Studies at the National Scientific Research Institute of France and with her former professors at the National Coosrvatory of Musk. She studied Hebrew and re^i-lariy consulted rabbinnical teachers.
By now she has "reconstituted three hours of biWe music. There are another 10,000 hours left to go.

Detroit Plans Small Cars; Fears Big Ones Wanted
ByEDWARDS.LECHTZIN UPI Auto Writer
DETROIT (UPI) - The 1977-model year is hardly under way, but the main interest in Detroit is on the cars the automakers are planning for next fall and beyond.
The key word is one coined to describe the 77s downsizing. Trade publications have pretty well tagged out the industry's plans to carry out a weight and size-reduction program demanded by federal fuel economy laws.
By 1985, every automaker will have to build a fleet of cars that can average 27*/i miles per gallon. New engines and smaller cars are the way Detroit has chosen to accomplish this.
But its with some anxiety
that automakers invest their millions in new products. At some point, they say, buyers may rebel against cars they dont want.
Clirysler Ckirp. has gone as far as to warn that federal laws designed to reduce dependence on foreign oil could cut sales by three million cars a year and cost the jobs of up to one million auto workers by 1985.
In a report to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Chrysler says the big car will disappear, the intermediate-sized car will all but vanish. There will be some compacts, but most cars will be subcompacts.
Chrysler Report And, Chrysler says, it probably will have difficulty meeting the 27/i mpg figure because not
enough people will want to buy the really small models that will help boost its fleet's fuel economy average.
We dont know any way to convince the public to buy smaller cars than they want, the Chrysler report obtained by the Detroit News said. What will happen is a drop in sales because customers will hold on to the cars they have and like.
"Buyers may stay out of the market for three years and this would result in the possible loss of two to three million sales a year and one million jobs in the automotive and related industries.
GM Downsizing General Motors also questioned consumer acceptance of the redesigned, more fuel-efficient cars which may be
more costly, smallo* and less comfortable than todays cars.
But, because its the biggest and, apparently, the most willing to gamble, GM is in the forefront of the downsizing programs.
What b^an with a whole new lineup of smaller standard-size models for the 1977-model year will continue in the midsized range for 78.
The Chevrolet Chevelle, P<mi-tiSc LeMans, Buick Century, Oldsmobile Cutlass, Chevrolet Monte Carlo and Pontiac Grand Prix will be all-new from the ground in 1978. The next phase will be totally redesigned compact models and personalsized luxury models in 1979.
If there was any doubt in the publics mind that GM is fully committed to a drastic
reduction in size in most of its car lines, the 1978 intermediates should convince the skeptics, the trade publication Automotive News says.
*718 Short, Light The journal published a series of photographs of the mid-sized models as they went through engineering tests at GMs Arizona proving ground. The photos showed modds that were six to 12 inches shorter than their 1977-model counterparts and iq) to 800 pounds lighter.
GM wont be alone.
Ford, Chrysler and AMC are planning some new models for the coming three years, though each company has its own approach dictated largely by the amount of available money.
Ford will Mlow up on its redesigned intermediates for 77 with a luxury Lincdn Versailles the mini-Mark during the winter and a new lineup of small models next fall.
New Ford Series Theyll include a completely new compact series to rq>lace the Maverick and Comet models that are basically unchanged from the models that hit the market in 1969 and the Fiesta, a minicar In the Volkswagen Rabbit vein and imported from Europe.
SMALLER AND LIGHTER Ford Motor Co. plans a drastic change in its compact car iine with introduction of a new line of Maverick and Mercury Comet models. These sketches by the trade publication Car
Biz show plans to make models smaller and lighter while providing the same interior room, a goal of the industry in its attempts to meet fuel economy laws. (UPI Photo)
NEW TIMETABLE
WASHINGTON, D.C. (UPI) Amtraks new national timetable gives distances between stations in kilometers as well as miles.
Further down the line at Ford are a Mustang III, a Capri III that wUl be U.S.-buUt along the Mustang III lines, and new versions of subcompact and Pinto modds.
The Fiesta has drawn rave reviews in Europe, but may not hnd a willing market in this countiy unless the attitude toward small models changes.
The 1978 Maverick is no guardian of Ford styling tradition, says another trade publication. Car Biz, of Fords new offering.
Mavoicks a Mavarick Forerunner of a new breed of cars set to spring forth from Ford during the next several years, the new Maverick looks like no other Ford ever produced, Car Biz says. Its mission is to provide the nations No. 2 auto company
with an evolutionary step into the compact market of the 1980s in terms of size, weight, design and technology. Chrysler plans an early ^ring introduction of its new Chrysler LeBaron and Dodge Diplomat, luxury offsprings of the Volare-Aspen models, and a fall debut for its first minicar
an as-yet unnamed'derivative of the French Simca 1308.
Getting a new name and a facelift is the Charger SE, the Dodge version of the Chrysler Cordoba. According to Car Biz, the new name is the Dodge Magnum.
Also in 1979 are new standard-sized models to rq>lace the Chrysler New Yorker Brou^am and the rest of that lineup, basically unchanged since it bombed in 1975
the worst model year to introduce a full-sized car.
Small- Biggies There will be an all-new series of R body models, luxuriously appointed to compete head-on with GMs smaller big cars.
What GM has done is what all auto manufacturers are going to have to do so<H)er or later, Chrysler Chairman John Riccardo said in an interview with Wards Auto World.
Were just as happy that ours is later because we think we need the emphasis down in the small end of the market now. But everyone Is going to have to rescale cars in order to build up fuel economy.
AMC, only automaker now concentrating on the small end of the market, plans no major innovations until 1979 or 1980 when it brings out a new, smaller Gremlin.
AMCs VW Engines Until then, the smallest of the U.S. automakers will to rely on its current lineup and introduction of a more fuel-efficient four-cylinder engine its buying from Volkswagen.
The 28-day strike against Ford and the general economic lull prevented the battle that everyone expected between GMs smaller big cars and Fords carryover models. Both
companies, however, are claiming early victories.
In the final 20 days of November, sales of Fords restyled intermediates the Ford LTD II, Thunderbird, Mercury Cougar and Cougar XR-7 - were up 56 per cent from the same polod a year earlier. During the same 20 days, GMs smaller big cars scored an impressive 34 per Cent over the same nameplates in 1975.
Ford, GM H^y
In a generally lackluster 1977-model year, those performances make everyone happy and give executives the chance
to claim they guessed right.
I fed ^ about our products because we have the ground fully covered, says Ford President Lee A. lacocca. Were keeping our traditional big cars and we have just spent a fortune on new intermediates. The real heart of the maricet has turned out to be the intermediates.

Crusade To Save Ancient Monuments Of Acropolis
By KERIN HOPE
ATHENS, Greece (UPI) -Greece and the U. N. cultural organlzatkxi, UNESCX), are launching an International crusade to save the Acropolis monuments from further damage by air poilution and tourists.
Once the crusade is proclaimed, we expect to sign a cooperation agreement with UNESCO in February. Then UNESCO will make separate agreements with member countries to raise funds and expert services, said George Kav-vadias, secretary general of the Greek ministry of culture.
Backed by a Greek government grant of $1.35 million, a team of architects, ar-cheol(^ts, chemists and civil engineers already has examined every crack and crevice in the 2,400-year-old temples on the hill overlooking Athens.
The problems of the Acropolis are twofold, said George Dontas, director of the Acropolis precinct. One is air pollution, and the other is the wear and tear on the hill itself, caused by visitors footsteps.
Twenty years ago, the atmosphere in Athens was famous for its clarity. Thm was a brightness in the light which is not there now because of industrialization of the suburbs and the use of low quality oil fuel in the capital.
A high percentage of sulphur in the heating oil and fumes from car exhausts combine with moisture in the air to form sulphuric acid. This turns the marble surfaces into soft gypsum which is easily dissolved by rain.
Then strong winds in the spring carrying targe amounts of grit wear the marble away by friction.
Around the 5th cwitury B.C. buildings of cream-colored marble quarried on Mt. Penteti 12 miles north of Athens, are the traces of earlier and later structures, cut into the. surface of the limestone hilltop.
Cuttings for statue bases and inscriptions form a valuable historical record. If these remains are worn away by the tourists feet, some important pages of ancient history will be lost, Dontas said.
We intend to construct pathways around the hill, following the course of the processional way used in the ancient festivals.
Last month the experts removed the soot-blackened statues of King Kekrops, a legendary ruler of Athens, and his daughter from the west pedimoit of the Parthenon and hauled them into the Acropolis museum. __
When the Kekrops statues came into the museum, we found a green fungus underlying the surface of the marble, chemist Dimitrios Charalam-bous said. We are studying samples of the mould to find out what organism found perfect conditions to develop on the statues.
On the Erectheum temple, originally a shrine to Athena and Poseidon, experts have spent months taking plaster casts of the Caryatids, delicately carved statues of young women which act as columns on a porch dating from 410 B.C.
They are badly worn and we had to do something for them," Dontas said. TTiey will be transferred to the museum and replaced with copies - possiWy made of good quality cement. Replacements for the Kekrops sculptures are being made at the British Museum in London in fiberglass, he said.
It was Pericles, the fifth century B.C. Athenian statesman, who planned the rebuUd-
Famous Seaside
Eatery Closes
NAPLES, Italy (UPI) - Zl Teresa, one of Naples most famous seaside restaurants, has gone bankrupt after nearly hall a coitury.
Zi Teresa (Aunt Teresa) was named after its first owner, who turned a fishermeni eatery into a tourist attractioB. It had its heyday in the 1920s, when it described itseif as the worlds most famoiB restaurant.
Now Offer Trip To Samarkand
MOSCOW (UPI) - The Soviet travel organization. Intourist, has introduced a new 20-day tour which takes foreigners on the golden road to Samarkand. Oth- stops on the Central Asia Itiiwrary include ancient Bukhara, Tashkent and Alma Ata. The tour starts ends in Moscow.
ing of the temples on the Acropolis after Athens was destroyed in the Persian Wars.
He commissioned Ictinus as architect to design the Parthenon, temple of the citys patron goddess Athena, and Pheidias to design the sculptures which decorated it. Pbeidias also made the 30-foot
high gold and ivory statue of the goddess to stand inside the temple which also served as the city treasury.
Work began in 457 B.C. but was never completed because of the Pelqx>nnesian War between Athens and Sparta, \riiich began in 431 B.C.
(^y scholars are allowed to
step inside the Parthenon now, and the small temple of Nike also has been barred to the nearly four million tourists who visit the Acropolis each year.
Dontas stresses, however, the conservation work being carried out on the Acropolis is still a temporary measure.
We are really waiting and
hewing for scientists to come up with something to protect marble from atmospheric conditions. Then we could replace the sculpture in its rightful position.
The Acropolis monuments already have survived more than 2,000 years of eventful history. Converted into a
Christian church in the sixth century A.D., the Parthoion became a cathedral in the Middle Ages and a mosque under Ottoman rule.
The Turks stored gunpowder in the temple during a siege by the Venetians in 1687. A ^ell from one of General Moroslnis mortars landed inside the
Parthenon, destroying 14 columns and most of the interior walls.
When he captured the Acropolis, Morosini tried to remove the sculptures of the west pediment. But the tackle gave way. The statues were smashed. Only the Kekrops group, in the gaUe of the
temple, survived.
In 1801, Lord Elgin, Britains ambassador to Turkey, took away most of the frieze work and some other sculptures, as well as one of the six Caryatids from the Erectheum. These works, flayed in the British Museum*, are known as the

Good Old Grits Given Stardom In New Film
ByFREDMcNEESE
COLUMBIA, S.C. (UPI) - As even a Yanitee knows, its not breakfast in the South without grits. Now, the southern delicacy is the subject of a movie.
Its Grits is being made by Stan Woodward who sees grits as a unifying force in the South and a symbol of Southern culture.
Grits are something that almost everybody has in common in the South, Woodward said in an interview. You go into any restaurant in the South in the morning and 90 per cent of the people are eating grits.
Woodward, a native of South Carolina, spent several years working with independent film makers in New York before deciding to return to South Carolina to work with the South Carolina Arts Commission.
When I came back to South Carolina 1 began to see things that I hadnt seen before, things that gave the South its special character.
Woodward said he began his film long before the rise of President-Elect Jimmy Carter as a national political figure,
I think Carters election will help people to understand the South better as I think my movie will help people to understand the South better. They will compliment each other.
Woodward said aspects of the South, particularly grits, are misunderstood Most non-southerners get their idea about grits while passing through the South and being served grits which may be cold by the time they get them at hotel restaurants They wonder how on earth anyone can eat that stuff."
Woodward, for a part of his movie, went to a New York street fair where ethnic foods were being served and- began asking people where they thought grits, a com product, came from.
Some people thought they came from gourds, some thought bacon and some thought potato chips. One guy said he believed they came from Italy
Another part of the movie, which will be about 30 minutes long and should be finished by next March, focuses on one of the last water-powered grits mills in South Carolina.
The people who live within a 30 mile radius of the mill still use that old mill on a regular basis, Woodward said Many of them meet there on Saturday mornings and socialize. Woodward concentrates on the social aspect of grits, noting

grits are one of the few things the poorest person in the South has in common with the richest person.
Everybody in the South has a feeling about grits, he said.

Jones' Novel On Custer Was A Result Of 'Just Suppose'
By PHIL THOBIAS AP Books Editor
NEW YORK (AP) - Everybody knows that General (lister was killed in the fighting at the Little But suppose,
just suppose, that Custer hadnt died in that bloody fight with the Indians in 1876. That there was no Custers Last Stand. Dou^as C. Jones supposed and the result was his first novel, The Court-Martial of George Amnstnmg Custer.
I guess, says Jones, its an (dd, old idea - what if Custer had lived. But as far as I know no one dse has tried to build a novel around the supposition.
Actually, says Jones, who has ^>ent many of his 53 years researdiing the role played by the U.S. Army in the days of the fron^r as well as that played by the Indians, J didnt much want to do a book about Custer. But a coiq)le of people, including an agent, got after me so I started working on it. I found as I went al<mg that I was fascinated.
He continues, Not that I was all that crazy about Custer, but w^at got me was-the problem of trying to see if I could create an atmosphere in which he would have been given a fair trial, assuming he had lived and he had been brought up on court-martial charges. That was my challenge.
In the book I tried to give both sides of Custer. The prosecution, which presents the nonhero side of the Custer coin. And the defense, which was particularly challenging, since the defense lawyer, Jacobson, doesnt think Custer is all that great but despite this he is determined that Cluster must get a fair trial.
Jones got into novel writing in a rather roundabout way. He grew up in Fort Smith, Ark. not too long before that was Indian territory and served in the Army during World War II. After discharge, he entered college and took his degree as well as a commission in the ROTC. He promptly re-entered the Army and served, usually

as a press officer, until 1968 when he retired with the rank of lieutenant colonel.
I went to a lot of places with the Army Germany, the Pacific, Korea, Jones recalls, but I also served at a lot of places in this country that had been old Army frontier posts places like Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.
After leaving the Army, Jones, who had taken his masters degree while in service, joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin, where he taught journalism. But I also did quite a lot of research (i the fixmtier army, Indians and newspapermoi who served on the frontier, he says. I guess Ive been fascinated by the
West ever since I was a kid first as a buff, then as a formal sclKriar.
Jones, a large, amiable man, says the research done by him and his students eventually led to the writing of his first book, the nonficti(Hi The Treaty Of Medicine Lodge.
That ixxAs about the treaty between the U.S. government
and the five major hostile Indian tribes in the Great Plains that was drawn up in 1867 and set the pattern for the reserva-ti<m system.
"But the primary purpose of the book was to take a look at the newspaper corre^Kmdents vdio went aloi^ with the treaty conunission and to see how good a job they did covering
the story. They did a pretty creditable job. The good ones among them really tried to tell it like it was.
Further research resulted in the Custer novel. Jones says he wrote the book in 90 days but that was at the typewriter, the research for it involved a good 12 years.
He recently finished another
novel, Arrest Sitting Bull, which is scheduled to be published in 1977, that took him six mmiths to write but the re-%arch goes back many, many years.
Jones, who now teaches only during the summer, lives in Fayetteville, Ark., where he paints miBtly South Plains Indians of the 18th and 19th caituries. He says he plans to do a stage versiwi of his Custer novel.

Englands Queen Victoria ruled for 64 years, longer than any other British monarch.
By ULUAN OCONNELL NEW YORK (UPI) - I just found out Im a member of a big club600,000 members,
according to one Federai Trade Commission officialall persons turned down for credit by Montgomery Ward and Co.
This surprised me. ne news that the FTC was taking the company to task for failing to tdl unsuccessful credit applicants dy they were turned down did not. Somehow I knew it had to hai^ien.
My experience with Montgomery Ward goes back to last April when I filled out an application for credit with the company, more for convenience than need, and mailed it with an order for a $36.88 pantsuit advertised in their catalogue.
Back came a form letter which said in part; ... we have developed certain credit guiddines ... It is not to the customers advantage, nor ours, to dKi an account unless these guidelines can be satisfied ... Based <mi the application' information submitted, it is with real regrd that we must Inform you that we cannot establish a credit account for you at this time.
The Idter went on to say, however, that I should take advantage of Wards quality merchandise on a cash basis.
Now, Im sin^e, no dd>en-dants, have an impeccable credit record and have been a member of American Express since 1965, to mention only one credit card which Ive had for years. I have worked for United Press International for more than 20 years and have a five-figure salary well above the maximum listed on the Montgomery Ward appUcati<m.
What could it be? Maybe they
considered women a bad risk. Maybe they considered journalists a bad risk.
I called the company in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., and managed to get through to a Mr. Hammond (no first name given), who said he was an assistant credit manager. Had they asked for a credit report on me? Didnt they realize they were jeopardizing my credit standing?
Hammond said no credit report had been requested, a statement confirmed on another phone call to D.H. Coombs, the credit manager. They had deemed tme was not necessary, Hammond said. My application had been judged on certain characteristics, he said, and he couldnt offer any q>ecifics under corporate policy. We do not have to give evoybody credit who applies for it.
Did he need more information? No. Had I goofed somehow in filling out the application? No. Wouldnt he please tell me ... No. No. No.
Whm I qpoke to Coombs he said substantially the same thing as Hammond, but less politely. He also sent a second letter which said ... Montgomery Ward employs a Credit Risk Evaluation System based tqxm our experience with thousands of applicants like yourself... Like myself? The letter went on to say that my application was not iq> to their minimum required level and that the turndown in no way was a reflection on my personal integrity.
Then what was it a reflection <m?
A letter to the Federal Trade Conunlssiwi brought the reply that I couldnt be discriminated

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Low labor (iosts, tax exemptions and easily avaibale public financing are combining to make the sevra southeastern states an attraction for foreign companies, an article in the Vanderbilt University law journal reports.
Paul Dempsey, an attorney-advisor to the Interstate Commerce Commission, writes in the article that various packages of tax exemptions, cost-free training of manpower and low-cost labor in general, as well as low-lnterest loans for corporate construction are the attractions.
The article in the Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law describes a variety of incentives offered by Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi,
Temessee and North and South Carolina in their aggressive seardi for foreign capital.
New and developing firms out of state are also digible f(n* the southern inc^tives. the attraction has caused U.S. Commerce Secretary Elliott Richardson to remark, *'The North needs more help from the federal government than the South.
Dempsey wrote that all but Tennessee among the seven southeastern states have opened f(eign offices or have sent r^resentatives abroad, primarily to Brussels, the headquarters of the European Economic Community. Only 13 other states in the U.S. have opesied such offices, he said.
Of all the southeastern states, Denq>sey writes that South

HONG KONG (UPI) -Agricultural production in six of (Chinas 26 provinces suffered serious disruption In the past few years because of political struggle that sometimes turned violent, the New China News Agency said Saturday.
It said the polarization of the rich and poor was re-emerging.
Quoting Vice Premier Chen Yung-kuei, in a r^rt to a national conference on agriculture under way in Peking, it said the situation became so bad in one part of Chekiang Province that peoples cn-munes were broken up and the land divided.
His report laid the blame for disruptions in agricultural pro
duction on Chlang C3ilng, widow of the late party Chairman Mao Tse-tung, and three of her radical associates Chang Chun-chlao, Wang Hung-wen and Yao Wen-yuan. All four were purged in early October.
A sq)arate report by a Conununist party official in Chekiang, broadcast over the provincial radio, also gave details of the trouble in Chekiangs Waichow Prefecture. That repwl was made by CJien Tso-lin, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee.
The vice premiers report was ddivered to the agricultural conference Mwiday and the text was transmitted Saturday by the official New China News Ag^y. Chen Tso-lln, also a member of the partys powerful bureau, is considered one of the

against on the basis of sex or marital status but that a creditor may use whatevw criteria he may deem appropriate to evaluate credit worthiness.
So why was I rejected? Did I seem too affluent for a mail order house? I applied to J.C. Penney and Sears. Both responded quickly and courteously with credit cards. Okay, was I, perhaps, still not substantial enough. I filled out credit applications at Bergdorf Goodman, B(Hiwit Teller and Tiffany some of New Yorks finest, and most expensive, stores. Again, greeted with open arms.
And thats where it ended until this week when the FTC announced it was taking action under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act which went into effect Oct. 28, 1975, which, as amended, requires a company turning down a credit applicant to state the specific reasons not just generalities.

Variables In Gaston Textiles
GASTONIA, N.C. (AP) -Business at the many textile mills scattered across Gaston County is running from booming to dragging, but Christmas season predictions for 1977 are for a g(X)d year.
And predictions for Gaston County, a major area in the states textile industry, could prove to be a thermometer for the industry across the state.
Tommy Thompson, personnel manager for a Burlington Industries plant here, said he knew 1977 would be a good year when he saw a picture of Presi
dent-elect Jimmy Carter in blue jeans.
When the man in the White House wears blue jeans, it has got to be a terrific boost to our business, Thompson said. I figure that a lot of people are going to do like Mr. Carter and wear casual clothes, too. It ought to assure us of wonderful business during 1977.
Thompson said business is already booming at his plant, a weave mill, and it is running six and seven days a week. Other local Burlington plants are running six days a week.
Electricity From Eels
Carolina has been a leader in attracting foreign money.
The state took in some $300 millhm in 1974, accounting for more than 50 per crat of the total investment that year in the state, the attorney wrote.
Total foreign ownership of that states manufacturing facilities now exceeds an investment of $1.424 billion and provides employmoit for more than 19,300 state residaits, he wrote.
Dempsey wrote that much of that investment comes from West Germany, which he wrote has invested more in South Carolina than anywhere else in the worid outside its own boundaries.
Dempsey wrote that his views are pers<mal and do not reflect those of the I(X.
By The Associated Press
VANCOUVER, Canada (AP) Four freshwater electric eels are earning their ke^ at the Vancouver aquarium this Christmas powering the lights on the aquariums tree.
An excited eel can generate as much as 600 v(dts of electricity, but normally puts out 1.4 volts as a navigational aid.
A University of Britidi Columbia graduate chemistry student has designed a circuit to average out the flow to a steady 117 volts, exactly the
amount needed to light the four-foot trees lights.
Geoff Webb mounted two aluminum panels on the walls of the eels tank to collect dec-tricity conducted through the water. The panels pass the current on to Webbs circuit, which relays it to the string of lights.
The circuit is designed to store energy from the resting eels until the 117-volt levd is reached. If a frightened eel jolts the panels with 600 volts, the current lets through 117 volts and stores the excess.
Albert Myers Jr., chairman }f Textiles-Inc., said 1976 was a banner year for his company and he predicts 1977 to be even better.
The dqaartment stores have sold a lot of apparel for (Tirist-mas, and this means that the pipelines will need to be filled again, Myers said.
Allen McNeill, president of McBess Industries which makes yarn for hosiery and outerwear, echoed Myers.
A year ago we had 100 employes and today we have 280, so you can see that we have grown in 1976, McNeill said. Our plants are running six days a week.
But some textile firms have not fared as well. Some small mills are on short time and
some have entire sections shut down.
This is the time of year for the traditional lull in textile manufacturing, said Carl Har-relson, local manager for the N.C. Employment Security Commission. During the week of Dec. 4-11, his office signed up 1,151 textile employes for unemployment pay. Harrelson said that Gaston (bounty has about 25,000 textile employes.
About one person out of 25 looking for a job or working short hours was a textile employe, Harrelson said.
Some plant managers said the past few months have not been good, but they are optimistic about 1977.

His Gun Traded In For Writing Songs
By PAULA SCHWED NASHVILLE. Tenn. (UPI) -Harian Sanders says there are only two things he gets a kick out of writing country songs and robbing supermarkets.
Theres just no adventure anymore, Sanders says between puffs of his cigar. But when youre knocking over a grocery store, youre in the
spotlight for 10 seconds and your guns shaking and youre scared stiff. Its a hii aii right.
Sanders, 36, isnt sure how many stores he robbed after he left his hometown of Weed-patch, Calif., but says he visited every prison in Cali fomia for his crimes.
Yeah, I hit em all.
The stocky, bearded songwriter was finally sentenced to 99 years in jail for his involvement in a scuffle that left one man dead. Though Sanders is a nervous man, constantly jumping up for coffee or matches or something, he does not blink when he talks of prison.
After that I didnt think Id ever get out of jail, he says.
And all the prison guys called me a nut because I was happy all the time. But why not? I was writing my songs and as long as I didnt have to be by myself and think, it was a good deal.
His cellmate was Glen Sherley, whose songs were recorded by Johnny Cash. At the time. Sanders says Cash
was trying to get Sherley paroled, and though he was sorry to lose a cdlaborator, he couldnt have been happier for his friwjd.
And then I found out Cash was doing it tar me, said Sanders. I was so happy writing songs all day, I didnt really care If I ever got out, but when I went before the parole
lK>ard they said there was a chance.
Sanders was paroled, and a Job writing songs for Cash was waiting when he came to NashvUle.
When I saw Cash I just cried like a baby, said Sanders, clenching his hands. Here I am a convict, expecting nothing but the
worst. And what this man has done for me nobody ever did. I just cried and cried.
Sanders says the only way he can return Cashs favor is by making it big, and he constantly assures the entertainer that he will succeed in the country music business.
I cant do for John what he done fw me. But Im just starting to write good songs and Ive got lots of good songs left in me, Sanders said. I just love writing songs.
He has recently recorded several singles and written part
of the soundtrack for a new Peter Fonda film. Yeah, things are rolling along, all right.
People ask me what Im doing for the guys back in prison and this is what Im doing writing songs, working hard and trying to get ahead. Doesnt do much good for them if I go sing to them. But if I make it - thats good for those guys.
Thats why I got the git-gos I gotta go, go, go from the time I get up in the morning.

For Tho Wook Off Docombor 26,1976-Jonuory 1, 1977Guy Lombardo, As Usual Presides Over New Years Eve Festivities
Guy Lombardo, the famed orchestra leader who has been ringing in the New Year with Auld Lang Syne over the airways since 1929, will preside over the festivities again this year with the Royal Canadians playing the sweetest music this side of heavoi, on New Years Eve With Gity Lombardo, a special to be broadcast live, Friday, Dec. 31, 11:30 p.m. to 1 a.m.,iCBS-TV.
This will mark the 48th year in a row Lombardo and his orchestra have welcomed the New Year on CBS.
Guest-starring will be Carol Lawrence and Billy Eckstine.
A highlight of New Years Eve With Guy Lombardo. which wil originate in the Grand (Ballroom of the Waldorf Astoria in New York City, will be a live remote pickup of the crowd at Times Siqjuare in Manhattan as midnight approaches.
Newsca^r Ben Grauer will serve as Times Square host and provide commoitary mi the traditional crush of merrymakers.
At 74, with more than 50 years in show business behind him and crowds still filling dance halls when he brings the Royal Canadians in. Lombardo looks back at the highli^ts and the changes with varying, feelings. The strongest feeling, however, seems to be one of cMitentment with the way it has all gone.
Longevity is the keynote with Lombardo and his business dealings. As for the future, he sees it as nothing more than climbing back on the bus, which has carried him about 2,000,000 mUes during his career, and heading for another engagement.
TTiere havent been many nights off, not with sommer shows, plus concerts and dance
bookings criss-crossing the U.S. and Canada. Surprisingly, the band has never played outside North America.
Where many rock fans wouldnt go near a Lombardo concert, it was the college kids years ago who helped propel the Royal Canadians into prominence.
Weve always embraced all audiences, Lombardo says. We were a college band in many ways, but we drew the mothers and fathers, too. We were never a waltz or cha-cha band or anything like that. We were always middle of the road. We had the sound, and it was a family band.
Guy Lombardo put the super-sweetner into the big band sound, and hes put that very special traditional sound into New Years Eve. Come to think about it . . . what would New Years Eve be without him?

His Gun Traded In For Writing Songs
By PAULA SCHWED
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (UPI) -Harlan Sanders says there are only two things he gets a kick out of writing country songs and robbing supermarkets.
Theres just no adventure anymore, Sanders says between puffs of his cigar. But when youre knocking over a grocery store, youre in the
i^tlight for 10 seconds and your guns shaking and you're scared stiff. Its a high all right.
Sanders, 36, isnt sure how many stores he robbed after he left his hometown of Weed patch, Calif., but says he visited every prison in Cali fomia for his crimes.
Yeah, I hit em all.
The stocky, bearded songwriter was finally sentenced to 99 years in jail for his involvement in a scuffle that left one man dead. Though Sanders is a nervous man, constantly jumping up for coffee or matches or something, he does not blink when he talks of prison.
After that I didnt think Id ever get out of jail, he says.
And all the prison guys called me a nut because I was happy all the time. But why not? I was writing my songs and as long as I didnt have to be by myself and think, it was a good deal.
His cellmate was Glen Sherley, whose songs were recorded by Johnny Cash. At the time. Sanders says Cash
was trying to get Sheriey paroled, and thou^ he was sorry to lose a collaborator, he couldnt have been hairier for his friend.
And then I found out Cash was doing it for me, said Sanders. I was so happy writing songs all day, I didnt really care if I ever got out, but when I went before the parole
board they said there was a chance.
Sanders was paroled, and a job writing songs for Ca^ was waiting when he came to Nashvle.
When I saw Cash I just cried like a baby, said Sanders, clenching his hands. Here I am a convict, expecting nothing but the
worst. And what this man has done for me nobody ever did. I just cried and cried.
Sanders says the only way he can return Cash;s favor is by making it big, and he constantly assures the entertainer that he wUl succeed in the country music business.
I cant do for John what he done for me. But Im just starting to write good songs and Ive got lots of good songs left in me, Sanders said. I just love writing songs.
He has recently recorded several singles and written part
of the soundtrack for a new Peter Fonda film. Yeah, things are rolling along, all right.
People ask me what Im doing for the guys back in prison and this is what Im doing writing songs, working hard and trying to get ahead. Doesnt do much good for them if I go sing to them. But if I make it thats good for those guys.

Womens Impact Felt In Bicentennial Year
By JOY STILLEY
AP Newsfeatures Writo-
NEW YORK (AP) - WbUe a bicentennial-conscious nation was taking a year-long nostalgic look kt its past, American women were writing new history in 1976.
They broke the sex barrier at the U.S. military academies, enrolling at West Point, Annapolis and the Air Force Academy, after a law signed by Pres-idoit Ford abolished the allmale tradition at those institutions.
Women also entered the Coast Guard Academy, to become the first female cadets there since its founding in 1876. The academy, (grated by the Department of Transportation, was not affected by the legislation, but integrated its student body voluntarily.
In a presidential election year, women's political impact was evident and by the time Rosalynn Carter became First Lady-elect her face and her stand on various issues were already familiar all over the United States.
Wives of the major candidates Mrs. Carter, Joan Mndale, Betty Ford and Elizabeth Dole struck out on their own acns the country on tough campaign tours. In hardhitting speeches they gave their own views, as well as explained their husbands positions, which they sometimes didnt agree with.
A woman even campaigned for president, on an antiabortion platform: Ellen
McCormack, 49-year-old Merrick, L.I., housewife, mother and grandmother, came in fifth in the balloting at the Democratic National Convention.
That gathering saw Rep. Lindy Boggs, D-La., presiding as permanent chairperson," the first woman to hold that position in the partys history, while Rep. Barbara Jordan, D-Tex., was keynote speaker. Mary Louise Smith, 62, first woman to be Republican National Chairman, was continued in that post after the Republican convention but in November announced her resignation.
The election of Dixy Lee Ray as governor of Washington gave the nation a second female state government head, along with Gov. Ella Grasso of Connecticut. But otherwise gains were meager. There will be no woman in the Senate and the number of women holding House seats will decline by one, to 18, in the next Congress.
Rep. Leonor K. Sullivan, D-Mo., 72-year-old dean of the women members of Congress and the only one to chair a House committee, retired.
However, women everywhere were Increasingly active in politics. Anne Armstrong of Texas, 48, a longtime Republican party worker and former White House counselor, was named by President Ford as the first woman to serve as U.S. Ambassador to Great Britain.
Rosemary L. Ginn, 63, Republican national com-mitteewoman from Missouri, succeeded Ruth L Farkasa> U.S. Ambassador to Luxembourg, and President Ford nominated Patricia M.
Byrne, 51, as ambassador to Mali.
Shirley Temple Black, former child movie star who was previously ambassador to Ghana, became the first woman to hold the post of U.S. Chief of Protocol.
Jeanne M. Holm. 54, retired from the Air Force, where she had been the nations first woman major general, was appointed by President Ford as his special assistant for womens affairs. In that post she succeeded Patricia Sullivan Undh, former Republican national committeewoman from Louisiana, who was named deputy assistant secretary *f state for education and public affairs.
Evelyn Gandy, a 55-year-old attorney, became Mississippis first woman lieutenant governor, elected to the post after serving two times as state treasurer.
Former Rep. Louise Day Hicks, an outspoken opponent of forced school desegregation busing, was elected president of the Boston City Council, the first woman in the citys history to hold the top council post.
Sally Stanford, as top vote getter in the city council election, was named mayor of Sausalito. a small community across the Golden Cate from her old home town of San Francisco, \nhere she was once that, citys best known bordello operator. Her first official act was to adjourn the city council meeting and break open a case of champagne to celebrate.
President Ford nominated Juanita Ashcraft, 55. as an assistant secretary of the Air Force, the highest civilian Pentagon post for a woman in more than two decades. He also nominated Shana Gordon, 36. as assistant secretary for public affairs of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare.
In political news abroad Isabel Peron, 45, was ousted from office by a bloodless military coiq) after 21 months as president of Argentina following the death of her husband. Juan Peron. And Chiang Ching, 63, lost her power in China after the death of her husband, Mao Tse-tung.
Former first ladies were in the news during the year; Mamie Eisenhower, who spent 11 weeks in Washingtons Walter Reed Army Medical Center with a viral infection, celebrated her 80th birthday; Lady Bird Johnson visited Israd; and Pat Nbcon was hospitalized after suffering a stroke.
Women seeking a toehold on the career lacM^ in fields previously dominated by men could take heart from the successes of their sisters during the year.
Barbara Walters, 44, who had been cohost of the NBC "Today show for the last two years and a writer and personality with the network for 12 years, accepted an offer of $1 million a year over the next five years to coanchor The Evening News" at ABC with Harry Reasoner.
Jane Pauley, 25-year-dd Indiana native, joined the Today show staff as a cohost
with Tom Brokaw. Meanwhile, Lynn Sherr, 34, became the first woman to anchor a primetime network television news series when she was named host of public televisions U.S.A: People and Politics.
Marlene Sanders. 45, was named vice president and director of documentaries for ABC News, the first woman vice president in the news division at that network. And network television news got its first woman bureau chief when Rebecca Bell became head of NBCs Paris Bureau
Capt. Fran McKee, 49, in the service for 26 years, became the first woman line officer of the Navy to be promoted to rear admiral. The two previously named women admirals have been chiefs of the Nurse Corps.
Sue Peterson, 5 foot 7, and 31 years old, became the first female physical education instructor in West Points 174-year history.
Not only was Deborah B. Doane of Essex, Conn., the Maine Maritime Academys first female student, but she was its top ranking graduate this year and the first woman in the country to graduate from a four-year maritime school. TTie 26-year-old woman graduated with 104 classmates as an ensign with full qualifications as a third mate.
Winning 57 per cent of the vote, 20-year-old Anna Maria Ricck) became the first woman in the Polytechnic Institute of New Yorks 121-year history to serve as president of its student council. The engineering and science school has 4,600 students, of which fewer than 5 per cent are women.
Women total only 2 per coit of the New York Law Schools graduates, but Sylvia D. Garland was elected by the Alumni Association as its first woman president.
TTie Harvard Law Review elected its first woman president: 23-year-old Susan Estrich of Cambridge. Mass., a second-year student at the Harvard Law School.
Dr. Rosalyn Yalow became the first woman to receive an Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award in the 31-year history of the prizes.
Dr. Sarah Kerr Myers, who - has served as editor of the American Geographical Societys quarterly Geographical Review since 1973, became the first woman director of the society in its 124-year history.
Sarah Caldwell, who has her own <^ra company in Boston, where she stages and conducts, became the first woman ever to conduct at the New York Metropolitan Opera since it opened in 1883.
Sylvia E. Mathis. 26. a 1975 graduate of the University of North Carolinas Law Sc^l, became the first bii^k woman to be recruited as an agent for the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Roberta Kankus, 23-year-old graduate of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, became the first woman in the United States, and perhaps in the world, to be licensed as a commercial luiclear power plant
ByCAROLTYER Reflector Staff Writer
Every Thursday night Mrs. Doris Hamner of Schuyler, Va., sits down to watch the latest chronicle of her childrens childhood and to wait for son, Earl Jr.s call asking, Mother, did you like the show?
This tidbit and much other information about the true-life
family on whom the prize-
winning show, THE WALTONS is based was relate^ by
Greenville resident, Sandy
Carter Flowers, who grew up two doors down from Mr. and Mrs. Earl Hamner Sr. in > Schuyler.
:; Of course, when I was growing up I never knew the
Hamners would become
famous, Ms. Flowers, a
Greenville city building in
spector, said, but I knew they were very special people. My mother always had my brothers and I go by to see if there was anything Mrs. Hamner needed when we went to the store and she was always so sweet and kind to us. She still acts like she loves me like one of her own family. 1 wouldnt think of going home without going by to see f her.
The house on The Waltons is a prototype of the one in which Mrs. Hamner still lives, Sandy says. The surroundings of the house were changed for the sake of the story to a rural one. Actually the Hamner children grew up in Schuyler, which is about as small as a town can get, according to Sandy. The only source of livelihood there was a soapstone quarry, which is now clo^ down.
The characters on The Waltons were created, of course, by Earl Hamner Jr., based on his childhood experiences, but embellished somewhat.
At Sandys request, Mrs. Hamner made a list of her childrens names and of the Waltons who are their counterparts.
John Boy is Earl Jr., who lives in California where he is head writer of The Waltons television series.
Mary Ellen is Marion, a Richmond. Va., homemaker.
Erin is Audrey, a Roanoke, Va., employment counselor and mother.
Jason is Cliff, a Richmond cost estimator.
Ben is a composite of Paul and Bill. Paul is a New Jersey show shoe store operator and Bill is a construction foreman in Richmond.
Jim Bob is Jim, a Schuyler banker.
Elizabeth is Nancy, a Richmond homemaker.
Mrs. Hamner is a widow now. living alone. Her husband died suddenly in 1969. He did live long enough, how-ever, to know something about the fame that would come to the family. He and Mrs. Walton attended the
premiere in New York of Spencers Mountain, which was Earl Jr.s first big writing success. This movie and then a 1971 television Christmas special. The Homecoming, were forerunners of The Waltons.
Grandpa and Grandma Walton are composites of the Hamner childrens grandparents. Neither couple ever lived with the Hamners, though the maternal grandparents did live in the same town and provided a second home for all of them. Grandfather Hamner died when the children were small, and his widow moved to Richmond, where the family often visited till she died at the age of 94.
Mrs. Hamners parents were Gianninis, said to have been descended from Italian artisans brought to America by Thomas Jefferson to do the stone work at his home. Monticello, located 30 miles northwest of Schuyler.
There were rules by which the Hamners were reared, but they were few, simple, and direct.
Girls did not go out alone with boys till they were 16, Sandy says Mrs. Hamner has told her. Whenever a child left the yard, he told someone where he was going and when hed be back. Everyone made his own bed and did his assigned chores. Outside these rules, Mrs. Hamner said she was probably permissive, Sandy said. She says she never nagged her children, and I believe her. Shes the kind of person whos just so easygoing and yet so authoritative that she wouldnt have had to.
Space was limited in the Hamners house, Sandy says. She remembers when Jim and Nancy were still there. There were and still are only five rooms. When most of the children were home, Mrs. Hamner told Sandy that all the boys slept in one room upstairs, all the girls slept in the other upstairs, and the parents and the current baby slept in the one downstairs bedroom.
Education was all important. Mrs. Hamner told Sandy that her husband worked as a machinist and kept food on the table through The Depressioon days by farming and hunting and fishing. He was determined that each of his children would graduate from high school and go to college if at ^11 possible.
MRS. HAMNER LOVES PLANTS ... as well as children, according to Ms. Flowers. Shes shown her in her front yard surrounded by some of her plants.
Each child was expected to help the younger ones financially during his school days. Six made it to college this way, Mrs. Hamner said.
There are currently 15 grandchildren.
Mrs. Hamner has a guest hook in her living room and keeps a record of the people who find their way to the steep streets of Schuyler to meet her. Sandy says she likes nothing better to greet each one and talk to him or her about the methods and values she used in rearing her family. 1 guess you could say. she told Sandy once, that Earl and I raised our children by The Golden Rule. If we could really do unto others as we would have them do unto us, maybe we wouldn't need any other rules.
"She was a lovely neighbor lady to have during my growing up years. Sandy said. "I know in my heart she feels about me just like a child or a grandchild, and I love her for it.

Engagements Announced
At
Wit's End
By Erma Bombeck

If you are like millions of average parents you are sitting there today in the midst of toys that are solid, child-proof, indestructible and built-to-be-abused.
A wheel has fallen off the Last-A-Lifetime car. The mend-itself, puncture-proof inflatable ball didnt and wasnt. The reinforced heavy-duty cardboard castle with 280 lifelike warriors, 38 weapons and 180-piece cavalry blew over when the furnace went on, and one of the kids has swallowed a one-piece dur'hble, no-moving-parts barnyard guaranteed safe for toddlers.
You are naive if you believe there is any such toy as one that is child-proof. I have seen sweet, shy precious little girls who did not have the strength to put their arm in a coat punch out the eyes of a doll and within minutes have her insides stacked neatly into three piles.
I have seen little boys small enough to walk under a coffee table pull a jungle gym set out of the ground and tie the swings into square knots.
Somehow, Ive always identified with the (ommerical where they put a suitcase in a cage with a gorilla to see how sturdy the luggage stands up. Two minutes with my middle child and it wouldnt stand a chance. For that matter, neither would the luggage.

as priests and bishops.
Women were competing against men in nearly every field, but they were still competing against their own sex in the traditional beauty contests.
Barbara Elaine Peterson, 22, was chosen Miss U.S.A. and her sister, Polly, 17, won the Miss Teen-Age Minnesota title. Rina Messinger, 20, former Israeli soldier and more recently a gliding instructor, was named Miss Universe. Miss Jamaica, 22-year-old Cindy Breakspeare, was chosen Miss World 1976.
Dorothy Kathleen Benham, 20, of Edina, Minn., was crowned Miss America 1977 at the annual pageant in Atlantic City. The 5 foot 7% 120-pound blonde is a junior at Macalester College in St. Paul, majoring in vocal performance.
Twanna D. Kilgore, 21, of Washington, D C., was chosen Miss Black America. An English major at Federal City College, she hopes to pursue a career in the arts.
Actress Angie Dickinson was named Woman of the Year by the Hollywood Radio and Television Society, for the success of her TV series, Police Woman, the fourth woman ever to be given the societys top honor.

For the second consecutive year. Trina Jarish, 34, of Cost^, Mesa, Calif., won the Powder Puff Derby cross-country air race. The race was sponsored by the Ninety-Nines, an organization of women pilots, who announced it was their last race.
It wasnt all good news for women during 1976. In the area of crime, they made their share of headlines. Sara Jane Moore, 45, was sentenced to life in prison, the maximum sentence prescribed by law; for attempting to kill President Ford on Sept. 22, 1975.
Patricia Hearst, 22, was back with her family for the first time in almost three yBars, out on bail while appealing her bank robbery conviction for which she was sehtenced to seven years in prison.
Actress Louise Lasser, 33, star of the TV s^ opera, Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, completed a six-month diversionary program on a charge of possession of cocaine. The program is designed for first-time drug offenders.
Caril Ann Fugate, 32, was paroled after spending more than half her life in confinement.
She was 14 when she accompanied Charles Starkweather on an 11-murder rampage.
The National Center for Health Statistics reported that American divorces topped the one million mark in 1975 for the first time and that the nations divorce rate was rising by nearly 5 per cent annually. The marriage rate was dropping by about 4 per cent, although an estimated 2.1 million couples were married in 1975.
The marriage rate may have been dropping in real life, but in the comic strip world, per-ennially-young, red-haired reporter Brenda Starr finally married her mystercaman, Basil St. John, whom she had been chasing for three decades.
Among real-life mergers: Doris Day, 52, filmdoms girl-next-door, and Barry D. Com-den, 41, a Beverly Hills restaurateur; her fourth marriage, his second. Nora Ephron, 34, columnist and free-lance writer, and Carl Bernstein, 32, of the Washington Posts Watergate reporting team; second marriage for each. Actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, 56, and Michael OHara, 47 - seventh marriage for her; fourth for him.
Contributing to the years di
vorce statistics was televisions Barbara Walters, who was granted an uncontested divorce from Lee Guber. For the second time, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton were divorced. She later married former Navy Secretary John Warner. Princess Margaret, 45, and the Earl of Snowden, 46, separated after 16 years of marriage.
Along with the marriage rate, the countrys birth rate continued to decline; the National Center for Health Statistics said that the 1975 birth rate had dropped to 14.8 births per 1,000 population, compared with 14.9 in 1974.
Abortion continued to be a big issue, even in the election campaign and in rulings on two major issues the Supreme Court declared: A woman does not need the consent of her husband to have an abortion; and a girl under 18 does not need the consent of a parent to have an abortion.
Meanwhile, a U.N. study reported that more than two-thirds of the worlds women now have access to abortions in their countries double the number of five years ago.

Parties
NEW YORK (UPI) - The boom in indoor gardening has added a new kind of party to the American scene.
A gardening trade magazine says plant parties similar to home sale parties of cookware and other kitchenware are blossoming all over the country.
They vary in size, says Home Horticulture magazine. Their <^rators include ind^iendoits as well as plant party companies such as that of Lynn Koretsky of upstate Mahopac, N.Y.
Her husband, Alvin, has a gardening and landscaping business and Mrs. Koretsky has her own greenhouse where she propagates the plants she sells at evening parties in customers homes. With the plants she provides descriptions, advice on what to expect from each variety and how to care for them.
toys dont die from old age. In fact, most of the dolls I have discarded have fear In their eyes. (Also hair tom out by the roots, dislocated joints and teethmarks on 95 per cent of their bodies.)
Do not be misled by children who feign helplessness at not being able to get a band-aid out of the wrapper. Have you ever seen them tear into a package of {pim? Its enough to make your blood run cold.
To my knowledge, we wily owned one toy that lasted longer
than 15 minutes. It was a robot monster that ran on batteries and held me at bay in the sink for eight hours with a laser gun pointed at my head.
Now that I think of it... it was probably running for its life from the children.

However, backers of the amendment who had hoped to see it ratified during the bicentennial year were disappointed. At years end it was stalled, having passed in 34 of the 38 states needed for ratification.
The first International Tribunal on Crimes Against Women was held in Brussels with women from 28 countries attending. Organizers said the five-day meeting produced a permanent network of contacts for planning international feminist strategy.
In sports, too, women were seeking to prove their equality with men. Janet Guthrie, 38-year-old physicist who tried but failed to qualify for the Indianapolis MO, became the first female driver to participate in a major stock race. She finished 15th in the $249,155 World 600 at Charlotte, N.C.

To complete her attire, the bride wore a fingertip veil of silk illusion attached to a band of silk organza. The veil and band were accented with appliques of silk flowers. The bride carried a nosegay of red and white carnations surrounded by holly.

By TAD BARTIMUS Associated Press Writer
NOME, Alaska (AP) -Nomes teen center is a drafty, decrepit building with a shaky past and an uncertain future. Its director is an ebullient young woman determined to keep it alive.
Laurie Terrall is 23, a Volunteer In Service To America (VISTA) who has been in Nome one year. Skeptics call her a native crusader. Optimists call her a guiding li^t among the towns troubled teen-agers and young adults. The kids just call her a friend.
The teen center has been a sometime-thing. Closed down for five months a year ago by the City Council after it was condemned by the fire marshal, it has also come under fire from authorities because of alcohol and drug abuse on the premises.
We spent $3,000 on new recreational equipment, got the place rewired, and outlawed all alcohol and dope on the grounds before we re(^)ened, said Miss Terrall.
We feel the center now is an alternative to alcohol, drugs and crime, and even if the kids dont use it, they kirow its there and they have a choice of some place to go
The freckle-faced social, worker from Oregon views Nome teen-agers major problem as having no models to
build their morals on. 'Their parents are caught between cultures and are the lost generation. The kids are really afraid that what happened to their folks will happen to them.
Theyre afraid to be Eskimos, so they try to be whites, but they go to the movies and watch TV and see those whites as hard-drinking, hard-fighting people and they dont lo<A beyond Uiat, she said.
Miss Terralls road to Nome was a direct one.
I have known for a long time 1 wanted to get involved, to help people, she said. Much of that desire came through watching what happened to a close friend of mine who became a drug addict. She wanted help but whoi we were in hi^ school guidance counselors were generally P.E. (physical education) teachers with a spare hour on their schedule. There was no (me who really understood, and my friend ended up destroyed.
The teen center has received several thousand dollars in M-eral grants to initiate a winter outdoor recreation program of cross-country skiing, backpacking and ice skating. Miss Terrall is also purchasing art supplies and is planning activities for next summer.
She is adamant that bush Alaskas youngsters find solace in the vast laqd which has
lured so many whites to seek comfort in its space.
In the old lifestyle, hunting allowed native kids to be alone, in silence, with the outdoors, she said. If you take hunting away and take them out of the bush and bring them into the city, you have to somehow give them a way to find their own space and peace of mind.
The boarding home kids, especially, are really shy and they run in tight cliques because there is heavy discrimination among native pe(^le who speak different dialects, said Miss Terrall, noting that in northwest Alaska alone there are 15 different ones.
She said to date she hasnt had much luck encouraging students in the boarding home program to frequent the teen center because the Nome kids resent them and feel it is their turf.
Eventually she hopes to use federal funds to establish similar centers in the isolated villages, with emphasis on creation of traditional crafts.
I foresee an eventual resurgence of native pride up here but it is a long way from returning, she said. Most kids right now reject anything thats native and there is no way we whites can cram it down their throats.
MRS. SHELTON RAY DIXON
now employed by Eaton Corp.
The bridegroom is a graduate of Wlnterville High School and attended Lenoir Community College, Kinston. He is associate director of special services at Pitt Memorial Hospital.
Following the ceremony, a reception was held at the home of the bride. Cake was served by Mrs. Velma Woolard, sister-in-law of the bride, and punch was poured by Mrs. John McDaniel, aunt of the bridegroom.Bridal Aide Enjoys Role
By JOY STILLEY AP Newsfeatures Writer NEW YORK (AP) - When Judy Allen goes to a wedding shes almost as nervous as the bride.
Im the last one to adjust her train and to see that everything is all right, says the bridal consultant, who has usually built up a warm relationship with the customer during the process of selecting and fitting the gown. Some brides Ive gotten so attached to its hard to keep from crying. Mrs. Allen insists it isnt appropriate for the groom to see the bride in her wedding gown before the ceremony, adding that one of her most rewarding experiences is to watch the groom when he sees his bride come up the aisle.
Its a very special moment that I dont think a bride should run the risk of losing the expression on his face, his eyes and smile. It gives me a feeling of a job well done, she says.
When it comes to choosing a gown, about 75 per cent of the prospective brides come in by themselves or with a girlfriend to make a preliminary selection, she reports, but usually come back with their mother before making the final choice.
Some have a clear idea of what they want when they come in to pick a gown but others have an open mind, says Mrs. Allen, bridal consultant for the Quincy, 111., branch of Carson Pirie Scott & Co.
Each store that has a bridal department is treated strictly in<iividually, she explained on a recent buying trip to New York. Fashions vary not only from the midwest to the East coast, but from one city to another in the state of Ulinois.
You must keep in mind that Quincy is a Very rural area and what might go in a big city might not go there. However, bridal fashion is much like any other fashion today. Its what a girl wants, rather than following set rules.
And what many of her customers want, she says, is traditional, old-fashioned gowns, laces, frills and ruffles, long train, high neckline though they are beginning to lean toward more s(^hi$ticated styles.
Short gowns and some of the faddish styles popular in some places a few years ago never took hold in her area, Mrs. Allen says. And though there are countless variations on the long, fitted gowns, she points out that bridal fashions really havent changed basically through the years.
Mrs. Allen, who comes to New York twice a year to visit showrooms and place orders, notes that each manufacturer generally has a basic style that has done well in the past and variations change it from season to season.
There are high or scoop necklines, long or short puffy sleeves, different fabrics, different laces, she enumerates.
Add or take away sequins or pearls; add or take away ruffles; even change the color perhaps one year ivory and one year white. Candlelight is popular now, a white lining with ivory overskirt or vice versa.
It doesnt take long to catch on to whats going to sell, says Mrs. Allen, 31, who started as a sales clerk in the stores blouse department and went on to become assistant, and then bridal consultant.

This Mother Is Growling Mad
By Abigail Van Buren
IC I7t by Oiuao Trtburw N Y Nm tynb "K
DEAR ABBY: I am so mad at myself, I dont know what else to do, so Im writing to Dear Abbv!
I let an 8-year-old con artisMmy son) talk me into buying him a dog! He cried and begged and promised to take care of it, so like a fool I gave in.
For exactly one week the kid took care of his dog. He , even got up early to take the dog out. Well, the novelty soon wore off, and now guess whos taking care of the dog? The kid does the dog a favor and plays with it (in the house) for maybe 10 minutes.
I guess I want to tell other parents that just because a kid begs for a dog doesnt mean he really wants it.
I wish there was a rent-a-dog outflt in business somewhere. Id have rented this pooch first to find out if I really wanted to buy him.
GROWLING MAD
DEAR GROWLING; 'Thanks for the tip. Put your kid in the doghouse and try to find a good home for the poodi.
DEAR ABBY: I am 29 years old, have seven kids and am pregnant again. Ive never been married, but Ive been engaged twice and Ive been pinned several times. Dont tell me I should have been more careful because I WAS careful, but nothing seemed to work with me.
A doctor put me on birth control pills, and I followed his instructions, but I turned up pregnant anyway. The doctor said it must have been the fault of the pills, so he put me on another brand, and the same thing happened.
Ive used other methods including marking the calendar, but they all failed. I must be one of those super fertile types.
I dont want any more kids after this, at least not until I get married, but I dont want an operation to make me sterile because I might meet a guy who wants a kid of his own, and then what will I do?
Is there a method of birth control that is positively sure? Dont send me to a doctor. Theyre the ones who got me into this fix.
FERTILE MYRTLE
DEAR MYRTLE: When it comes to birth control, the only method that's 100 per cent effective is self-control.
You dont say who's supporting all those kids, but if we taxpayers are, you owe it to your country to visit the Planned Parenthood people and turn off that baby machine.
DEAR ABBY: I am 18 and have this problem with my boyfriend. Weve been going together for nearly two years, and when we go to a movie or out to eat, lie thinks I should pay my own way. I suppose its only fair because Im working, too, but this is what bothers me. He asks me for the money in private and then pays for both of us in public so it wont make him look bad. He says its embarrassing for a guy to be with a girl who lays down her own cash.
Well, it makes me feel bad to see him pretending to be a big shot. But on the other hand, when a girl pays her own way, it makes her look like she couldnt get a guy any other way.
What do you think, Abby? Should a girl pay her own way? And if she does, should she be up front about it? Or should she slip it to the guy so he wont look cheap?
JUST ME
DEAR JUST;'If the girl wants to pay her own way, and her date has no objections, why not? But if she does, she should do so openly. And the guy who would accept a girl's money privately and then make a big show of treating her is phony.
DEAR ABBY; You will probably think I am a monster, but I am a girl of 14, and I hate my parents. Especially my mother.
She is so old-fashioned its pitiful. She wants to pick out all my clothes and tell me how to wear my hair. And I am the only girl in our crowd who doesnt wear eye makeup. She wont let me go in cars with boys. All she worries about is my reputation, and I swear I havent done anything wrong. She is killing my chances to go with the right kids and be popular.
Dont tell me to talk it over with her because she will only give me a long lecture on this bull about how its all for my own good!
I would like to be able to tell her things, but, heck, I dont want to get killed. I hate to sneak behind her back, but I have no choice. I sure wish I had a different mother.
MOTHER HATER
DEAR MOTHER HATER: Girls your age, who feel as you do, regard all adults as the enemy. Perhaps a letter from a girl your age with a different point of view on the same subject will help you more than any advice I could offer:

MRS. DENNIS TYRONE WALSTON
Walston-Adams Vows Spoken
Cedar Grove Missionary Baptist Church was the scene of the wedding ceremony of Rosa Mae Adams and Dennis Tyrone Walston Christmas afternoon at three oclock. The single ring ceremony was ccmducted by Kenneth Hammond.
A program of wedding music was presented by Thelma Evans, organist, and Oorthy Barnes, soloist.
Parents of the bride are Mr. and Mrs. Lee Adams of Rt. 7, Greenville. The bridegroom is the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. James Walston.
The bride wore a gown of white satin with lace covering the collar and band. Her veil was made of matching lace and she carried a bouquet of roses and greenery.
The honor attendant was Sylvia Walston of Greenville. She wore a formal gown of green knit fashioned empire style. She wore a matching green ribbon headpiece.
Bridesmaids were Shirley Payton of Simpson, and Brenda Staton of Greenville. They were dressed in formal pink polyester gowns fashioned empire style. Their headpieces were of matching pink ribbons.
Lisa Staton of Simpson was flower girl and was dressed in a gown of pink polyester with a V-neckline and puff sleeves. She carried a basket of carnations.
The best man was B. T. Walston of Ayden, and Mac Walston of Greenville was ring bearer. Jeffery Adams and George Walston, both of Greenville, were ushers.
After a wedding trip to unannounced points, the couple will reside near Greenville.
The bride is now a student at D. H. Conley High School and the bridegroom is a graduate of J. H. Rose High School.
A reception was held in the church dining hall following the ceremony.
The United States lost 245,-000,000 man-days from work accidents in 1975, says the National Safety Council.
In the past 20 years, the City Colleges of Chicago have awarded 33,052 degrees and diplomas.

Gardens Can Be Big
Producers
PROVO, Utah (UPl) -
Measuring production of different sized garden plots, a
researcher at Brigham Young University found that a 5-by-5-foot plot could yield 59 pounds of produce in a growing season, while a plot twice as large could produce 180 pounds.
Frank Williams also found that a 20-by-20-foot plot could yield 485 pounds of produce, and a 50-by-50-foot garden, more than 1,777 pounds of vegetables.
Williams project is designed to provide information for gardeners worldwide on how and where to plant their gardens, what to plant and how much and how to harvest and store the food.
Testing crop production for apartment gardeners, he found a 10-inch pot can produce 2.8 pounds of tomatoes or 2.32 pounds of cabbage in 58 days, .29 pounds of carrots in 42 days, .79 pounds of swiss chard in 42 days, or 2.3 pounds of zucchini in 58 days.
In a patio garden, 60-by-21-by-11 inches, Williams grew 5.45 pounds of pole beans, swiss chard, peas, cabbage, parsley and tomatoes in 63 days.
Williams said these yields stop far short of the 1,154 pounds of vegetables eaten annually by an average family of four.

Brunch A Fine Way To Spend Lazy Sunday
By TOM HOGE AP Newsfeatures Writo* Time was when I regarded brunch as little more than an excuse to start drinking champagne eariy in the day.
Then came a Sunday when I accepted an invitation to one of these delightfully informal meals and I revised my opinion of brunch. It Is an ideal way of entertaining friends without going to a lot of fuss; a ^lendid way to embark on a day of leis
ure.
Because of the hour it usually runs from 10:30 a.m. to about 3 p.m. brunch is a Sunday favorite. And brunch is a good time for a bracer like a Blood Mary, followed up by a tasty dish.
Its hard to say when the idea of brunch originated, but it apparently goes back many years. For example, around the turn of the century a group of prominent businessmen in At
lanta, who called themselves the Ice Picks, used to play cards every Saturday night. The game ended around midnight, the table was cleared and a repast was served in the early hours of Sunday.
Starting off with champagne cocktails, the group went on to pretty hearty fare, featuring such gourmet dishes as roast quail, ruffled grouse or wild turkey, topped off with kidney and mushroom stew. It was a
rib-sticking meal that was certainly more brunch than breakfast.
Professional chefs are finding brunch more and more of a challenge as they seek new dishes to tempt their patrons. One expert in the art is William Spry, executive chef at New Yorks Hotel Dorset.
Bnmch should be a celebration, a festival of the really good dishes served during the week, says Spry.
One of the tastiest brunch q>ecialtie8 I have encountered is Cajun Shrimp Creole, which I found in a book of recipes put out by the Atlanta Music Gub. Its creator was Mrs. Paul Hanes.
Vi cup vegetable oil 2 medium onions, sliced 1 large bell p^per, cut in strips Vi pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
Vi ciq) flour 1 teaspoon salt V4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
2Vi ci^s stewed tomatoes
2 pounds shelled and deveined shrimp
Heat oil in saucepan and add onions, bell pepper and mushrooms. Cook till ingredients are tender, stirring occasionally. Add flour and seasonings and mix well. Add tomatoes. Cook, stirring constantly till thickened. Cover and cook over low

On The
Local Scene
by Rosalie Trotman
If your Christmas has become a time of frustration rather than a season of joy, perhaps you and your family should revive the simplicity of the Christmases observed by our forefathers
The Yuletide advice comes from Mary Faye Shires of Greenville, who wrote a guest editorial which was printed in this months issue of Carolina Country magazine.
If the holiday season has become a burden to be survived and paid for on the installment plan, Mrs. Shires writes, take a new look at Christmas: Decide how much money you can afford to spend and spend only that amount. If you do this, you can enjoy Christmas as never before.
And, by returning to the simple but beautiful and meaningful celebrations of the past, you may again find that Yule time can be a spiritually beautiful and uplifting experience, she noted.
These age-old holiday activities, she said, include decorating the house with greenery, trimming the tree with homemade ornaments, attending church to hear the familiar scripture story of Christs birth, singing Christmas carols, being near loved ones and the exchange of simple gifts.
She concludes: Christ was bom, lived and died to give us hope, joy and peace. May each of us in his own way seek these things again at Christmas. Mrs. Shires, a former school teacher, has studied creative writing as a special student at ECU. She writes essays, poetry and short stories. Her husband, William A. Shires, is director of the ECU News Bureau.
Carolina Country is the statewide publication of North Carolinas Electric Membership Corporations.
square neckline. Her shoulder length veil was attached to bow with long satin ribbons.
Bridesmaids were Miss Mardette Christian of Bronx, N.Y., Miss GaU Milliner of Washington, D.C., Miss Sandra C. Moore and Miss Norma Sutton, both of Greenville. Miss Darlene Harris of Greenville, cousin of the bride, was junior bridesmaid. Miss Tina Harris of Greenville, cousin of the bride, was flower girl.
The bridesmaids wore floor length gowns of green jersey. The junior bridesmaid and flower girl wore floor length gowns of red jersey which featured square necklines. The flower girl carried a basket of flowers.
Ushers were Cleo Komegay of Philadelphia, Pa., and Roderick Komegay of Raleigh, both brothers of the bridegroom, Kenneth Rich of Salemburg, and Willie Hamilton of Goldsboro. James T. Wilson, Jr. was head usher and Sylvester A. Wilson was junior usher. Both are from Greenville and are brothers of the bride. Tony Komegay of Ayden, brother of the bridegroom, was ring bearer.
'The mother of the bride wore a green A-line formal gown of double knit polyester with a cowl collar and long sleeves, with
University of North Carolina alumni and friends attending the ninth annual Peach Bowl Classic in Atlanta Dec. 31, are invited to attend a pre-game pep rally brunch.
John Moore, Atlanta UNC Alumni Club president, extended an invitation to Carolina friends and alumni to come to the Hyatt Regency Hotel and join the fans who will attend.
The brunch will be served at the hotel from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Special buses will be leaving from the hotel area every few minutes direct to Atlanta Stadium and returning after the game when a cash bar mixer event is scheduled for alumni and visitors.
Mrs. William Porter, 2457 Clairmeade Way, N.E., Atlanta, Ga., is treasurer of the Alumni Club and will accept brunch reservations at $6 per person until Dec. 29.

The mother of the bridegroom wore a rose V-neck dress with a rose and white striped bodice and a solid rose flare at the hem, also with matching accessories. She wore a corsage of white mums and red and green ribbon.
A rec^tion was given in the Moyewood Social Service Center. The reception hall was decorated with a red, white and green color scheme. The tables were covered with a red and white cloth and candles in hurricane lamps were used. Poinsettias formed the centerpiece.
Miss Linda Harris of Ayden presided at the guest register. Punch was poured by Mrs. Mary Nobles of Ayden, and Mrs. Rosa Wilson of Bethel, grandmother of the bride, served the cake.
A bridal shower was given by Miss Carolyn Wilson, sister of the bride, and Miss Eva Adams, aunt of the bride. The table was decorated with Christmas arrangements.
The bride attended Boston University and received a degree from East Carolina University. She is a teacher at E. B. Aycock Junior High School. The bridegroom attended ECU and is employed with the Pitt County Mental Health Department. Both are licensed evangelists with the United Holy Church of America.
After a wedding trip to Florida, the couple will reside in Greenville.

Not Getting Opportunity
By HARI S. MANIAM
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) More should be done for women In Asia, according to labor and other experts from Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore who met here recently.
Experts from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) member countries observed that, with the exception of Singapore, Southeast Asian people were engaged in agriculture. 'They^felt women contributed significantly to this work, but that their contributions were underrated and often ignored.
One delegate said that not only in the agricultural sector but elsewhere, too, marriage seemed a threesome effort of two wage earners and a housewife, with the woman carrying the dual role.
A Malaysian paper at the seminar pointed out that a housewife who is not working is still a contributor to employment because when she looks after the house others are freed to work.
The paper computed her monetary value at between 400 and 600 Malaysian ringgits (about $160 to $240 U.S.) per month. A clerk in the government services begins at a salary of about 150 ringgits (about $60 U.S.) per month in the ASEAN region.
The pay was broken down into $72 for domestic services, $24 to pay the food of the domestic help, $32 to pay for a part-time nurse whi children fall ill or for other purposes and $24 for the services of a public relations officer each time the man entertains.
A greater value for her services could be computed if the children were toddlers and the domestic help demanded more money, and if the wife drove the children to school and carried out their other functions.

Figs And Raisins Short, Prices Up
NEW YORK (UPI) - The golden raisin supply this winter is about normal, but their prices have risen because bad weather destroyed a lot of the dark seedless raisin crop and sent prices up.
The consumer education program of Cornell Universitys Cooperative Extension Service said golden raisins account for only about 10 per cent of the countrys total raisin supply. They generally are used for baking.
The worldwide fig supply also is very short, and Califomias Calimyma fig crop produced only one-sixth of its normal supply this year. Imported European figs also were hard hit by bad weather.

Old Landmark To Be A Real Estate OfficeText By Gait Michaels, Photographs By Tommy Forrest
House Station is back in business. Lots of older folks in the Greenville area remember ita railroad station, the actual center for many years of the community north of the river. Now, House Station is being pr^ared to serve another function. It will soon hold the offices of Whitley and Associates, a Greenville real estate firm.
It might be said that Dees Whitley, presidit of the firm, literally stumbled onto the station. When he found out about its existence, he got so excited that he immediately jumped into his car and rode out to where the station was being used as a bam. I saw the roof fromthe road, and I couldnt figure out how to get there, so I got out of the car and ran across the field. And I fell into a ditch.
There was good reason for jff Whitleys excitement. He had been searching for two years for a railroad station in wliich to house his offices, ever since he was attracted by the quaint look of an old train station in Lucarna, N.C From then on, Whitley said, I looked around for train stations whenever I travelled. I searched all the backroads outside Greenville and finally found a station in Robersonville. It was a very large train station, about 3,000 square feet - more like a warehouse - but it was the first one Id found that I could buy. Unfortunately, it was going to cost me about $8,000 to move it to Greenville. But
it just so happened that a local housemover I talked with about moving the Robersonville station asked me why I was going to Robersonville when there was a train station right here in Greenville.
The station was built in 1893 by the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad for the cost of $2,155. It was named for David House, who owned all the surrounding land and from whom the railroad bought the land for the dqx>t. The station stood right in front of where the Empire Brush building now stands, and that area is still marked on North Carolina roadmaps as House, N.C.
For many years House Station was the House communitys most vital link with the outside world. It served as a post office and a general store, with the mail and all the farmers supplies coming in on one of the two trains that passed throu^ each day.
Since there were no hospitals in this area, seriously ill people caught the train into Richmond, where medical facilities were available. None of the passenger trains had a scheduled stop at the station, however, so anyone who wanted to ride on one had to flag it down.
The importance of the station to the community is evidoit in A March 22, 1893 editorial in The Eastern Reflector weekly newspaper.
The State Railfoad Commission is gong to investigate the application made by the W. & W. R.R. to allow the discontinuance of the depot at House, the editorial reads. Mossrs. ^p.E. House and J.J. Harrington went to Raleigh yesterday to be present at the trial to^lay. A depot that is as much convenience to a community as the one at House should not be discontinued, and the Commission will please, a large number of people by not granting the application.
House Station was not only an economic center; it was a center of entertainment. Every Sunday afternoon after, lunch, peq>le from all over the community would gather at House Station to watch the trains come in. Often over 100 people would stand beside the tracks to wave at the engineer.
David Whichard of The Daily Reflector remembers that when he was a boy. he and his friends would walk from Greenville to House to meet the trains. It was the only thing to do in Greenville, he said. We would walk to the station and then would pay ten cents to ride back to the Greenville station.
The station was closed down about 20 years ago, and a farmer bou^t and moved the building to his farm not far from the tracks. He used
it as a storage bam for his tobacco. When Whitley bought it, about a year ago, the building was not in use. This week Whitley had the building moved to a site next to the First Free Will Baptist Church on the New Bern Highway.
The plans for the buildings renovation are almost complete. The station has three rooms - two waiting rooms and a large freight area. One waiting room will be Whitleys office. The other will be a conference room. The freight room will be divided into two offices and a waiting room, and another floor will be added above these. This floor will be open and will have a catwalk. Whitley will keep the original heartpine floors.
In addition, Whitley plans to use some of the old board in the freight area as wain-scotting in the waiting room. This should interest his customers. Messages scrawled across the boards include, No loafers allowed inhere.
We are going to try to use everything we can from this station and some materials from other old train stations, Whitley said. For instance, the deck around the station has been tom off; we want to replace it with a deck from another station.
. And he definitely plans to replace the sign'missing from the exterior. HOUSE STATION. Now, what could be a more appropriate name for a real estate firm?
ON THE MOVE After prchasing the House Station, new owner Dees Whitley had it moved to a new
location on N.C. 43 south of GreenvlUe. The photo here
shows the building enroute to its new home.

to being moved from the farm locatkm near Greoi-ville where it has been located for the past two

Once A Bustling Place, Now A Forgotten Relic
Thoughts On Saving Our Estuarine Banks
By Johanna Seitz, N.C. State University
Shorefront homeowners, spare that cypress tree. It may save several feet of soil from erosion.
And think twice before you clear the debris cluttering your beach. The trash of fallen trees may be acting as a natural groin, retarding the erosion that plagues most of North Carolinas estuarine banks.
For the past 18.000 years a combination of sinking land, rising sea level and low topography has been claiming parts of North Carolinas estuarine shore. While some areas are accreting, an average of two or three feet of land is lost each year, with storms swiping up to 20 feet a lime.
Theres no way to stop this process (erosion), but you can slow it way do\m. says East Carolina University (ECT.I) geologist Stan Riggs.
One thing we re learning is that there is a whole series of different natural mechanisms which naturally slow erosion. Cypress, for example, can naturally produce a buffer against waves and catch sediment.
One of the big problems is that people who develop second homes are interested in clear views and a big swimming beach, Riggs continues. So the first things they do is cut dowo the cypress that blocks the view and clean up the grasses so they can have a sandy beach Both the cypress and the grasses are natural protections. So pretty soon, the property is receding at a major rate, which is a major economic loss. So the people have to build a bulkhead, which is a major investmdnt and which, had they im derstood the system woui dn t have beei necessary. /
Riggs and ECU assiKkt^s, geologist Michael O'Connor and biologist Vince Beilis, have been probing the causes of estuarine erosion for the past two years. With the help of UNC Sea Grant funds.
theyre tracked more than 1,4(X) miles of the coast in their hardy vessel, Sweet Agona, mapping erosion rates and shoreline characteristics. Theyve battled copperheads and uncooperative boat engines explaining why the boats namesake is the Indian maiden of questionable looks who gave Beggar Tom on the Lost Colony such pain.
In the process, the three researchers have learned much about how and why the coast erodes and what people can do to help or hinder the coasts natural protections.
One thing theyve found is that banks erode in distinct geographic units. For this reason, any man-made erosion barriers such as bulkheads, sea walls or groins should be placed as planned units. Caves between resistant clay bluffs, for example, will erode together and should be treated as one shoreline. Otherwide, protections for just one part of the shore will only ensure greater erosion next door
The researchers have also found that different types of shorelines experience different rates of erosion. Low sand and clay banks of one to five feet, for instance, are moderately to highly susceptible to erosion but can be protected fairly easily. High banks of five to 20 feet may be extremely resistant if they are made of tight clay or iron-cemented sand. Bluffs rising higher than 20 feet erode somewhat slowly but lose more material per foot and are very difficult to protect.
Swamp forests have negligible erosion and sediment berms are actually accreting. The area between swamp forests and low banks erodes less than the low banks but more than the forest. .\nd the grass marshes with their soggy peats are the most erodable. but they protect the sandy soils behind them.
Erosion of these shores is affected bv numerous other
factors, which the researchers are still trying to unravel. So far, theyre found that height, soil composition, water depth and offshore topography in front of the shore and the direction it faces all influence erosion. The type and density of vegetation on and in front of the bank, the breadth of the bank and the size of the body of water the bank faces also affect the rate. Mans activities can also inhibit or encourage erosion.
Inhibiting erosion may not always be the most desirable choice. OConnor adds. Erosion provides thefd sand that makes the dbeaches in the estuaries. Slowing erosion risks cutting off the replenishing sand supply.
Erosion also is probably an important means of recycling carbon and nutrients for the salt marshes. Slowing erosion too much, can risk cutting the productivity of the salt marshes which feed most of the states commercially important seafoods.
By the time Riggs, OConnor and Beilis are finished with their Sea Grant work in 1977, they hope to be able to tell local officials and landowners in detail exactly what is happening on the coast and why. An erosion intensity scale sort of a layman's guide to reading the shore is being developed to help people predict the erosion of specific areas and plan for the future. Riggs. Beilis and OConnor hope to be able to provi^ enough insight so residits of the estuarine shores can work with an understanding of their environment.
"Were not taking any stands on whether to bulkhead or let nature take its course, OConnor says. But we can show what is likely to happen in an area and assign success probabilities to different modifications. .\nd we can provide an education for people which can aUow them to make the right decisions. I've always maintained that people who are informed tend to make the right decisioas.

Edging (he master bedroom and living room, double triangular decks accent the ex* lerior and promote outdoor living in the Sweetwater, a unique three bedroom plan.
Besides the decks, the exterior is fashioned from stone and wood siding. Expanses of glass reflect the sky and ensnare sunlight and scenery for living areas within, and a stone chimney rises from the center of the four-winged design.
Inside, the home lives with the outdoors. Entry across the deck leads into the 39-ft. living room, framed by two sets of sliding glass doors for easy access to decks. An inviting wood-burning fireplace sits in the center of the room to be enjoyed by living room and dining area at right.
With its emphasis on leisure living, the design is surprising in its well-placed functional areas. The dining room, for instance, edges a useful walk-in closet, and the kitchen borders a pantry. A full-sized utility room provides space for laundry equipment and storage, and, connected to the carport, even serves as a mud room. For picnicking on the deck, a door links deck and dining areas.
To the left of the living room, and set apart for total privacy is the master bedroom. Extending over 19 ft. in length, the room is a study in luxury and includes private bath, dressing area, and walk-in closet. Sliding glass doors merge room and deck for star-gazing or sun-bathing.

Stained Glass Is Coming Back
By VIVIAN BROWN AP Newsfea tures
Stained glass is being worked into homes to accommodate the physical style and function of an area. It forms the roof of bathrooms, it is used in entiy-ways and kitchens, on stairwells and as walls.
AuUmomous glass free standing and hanging which can be suspended from a window or used as a divider or as a piece of art is popular with young people because it can be moved from place to place.
As an architectural medium the new glass has little resemblance to the medieval glass that complemented Gothic architecture.
It has no comparison either to Victorian or Art Nouveau revival styles. A renaissance, the first in 800 years, it is a new exploration of the medium, explains Otto B. Rigan of Atwater, Calif.
A painter, Rigan was discouraged in the 60s when he tried to learn the art. Studios were secretive and competitive. He moved to Europe to paint and returned to the United States in the 70s to discover a
whole network of artists along the West Coast doing glass work.
Inspired, he studied and visited studios where the medium was being explored in its new aesthetic perspective and he decided the work should be documented, he explained, while discussing his book, New Glass, which describes the work of 24 artists and includes photographs 64 pages in color and more than 100 monochromatic pictures by Charles Frizzell.
I got to know the artists and their different aesthetic orientations in traveling from San Diego to Victoria, B.C., he. said, adding that the budding artists in a field dominated by traditionalists and hobbyists must often opt for a commission to earn a living, rather than follow their own artistic puruits.
Individual pieces are priced as gallery art; architectural work ranges from $30 to $100 a square foot. He has seen panels that were worth far more than the environment in which they are placed, he said.
The new art has attracted
The
Garden Clinic
N.C. State University Answers Timely Gardening Questions Q. We have a Christmas poinsettia which wed like to keep in as good shape as possible so there will be blooms into the spring. What is the best attention to give a poinsettia I (Mrs. W. R., Winston-Salem)
A. With care, poinsettias should retain their beauty for several weeks or months (depending upon the cultivar.) Never chill a poinsettia; any temperature below 50 degrees may cause leaves to wilt and flower bracts to drop. Do not overwater; be sure to punch a hole in base of foil pot covering. (Henry J. Smith, extension landscape horticulturist)
Q. I have trouble raising spinach in my garden. Why? (L. T., Kinston)
A. Your soil probably needs liming. Spinach will not grow well in acid soil. Have a soil test made and get the pH to around 6.5 (Bill Reid, extenstion horticulture specialist)
Q. About a dozen squirrels are nesting in my yard, and they have become a real nusiance. How can I get rid of them? (T. R., Fayetteville)
A. Tree squirrels are among the most interesting wild animals encountered by the ptd)lic. However, these small rodents can be quite destructive. You can keep squirrels out of isolated trees by encircling the trees with a two-foot wide band of metal six feet off the ground. Trim overhanging branches wi^in six feet of the ground
or roof line. Live trapping is probably the most practical way of reducing the squirrel population. However, permission to trap squirrels must be obtained from the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission Suitable traps are available from hardware and garden supply stores. Bait the traps with nut meats, sunflower seeds, peanut butter or rolled oats or com. (O.T. Sanders, extension wildlife specialist)
Q. When is the best time to prune grapes and how can I keep the vines from bleeding? (H.G.,Lumberton)
A. Prune anytime after the leaves have fallen and before growth starts in the spring ex-c^t during freezing weather. The vines will bleed if cut when the sap is rising. However, this is not harmful to the vine and should not cause you to worry. (Joe Brooks, extension horticulturist)
women artists. Sculptor Judy Jansen blows her own glass in sensuous shapes that are integrated with fiat glass. Rigan watched her work on an 18-foot-square window in browns and yellows for an entry wall.
Kristin Newton designed a room divider, an assembly of motorized louvers with each vertical in motion. She likes kinetic effects apd free form shapes. An artistic sense of freedom she didnt have with painting motivates Elizabeth Devereaux Tallant, whose glass arch above a picture window changes in character from day to night.
Deep greens, browns and blues go into some of the glass windows of Kathie Stackpole Bunnell who often uses three elements in design. And after designing some very large windows for example, the Salvation Army Chapel doors in San Francisco Judy Raffael is limiting herself to less time-consuming work. A painter and quitter, she often uses border designs to frame her images.
A prolific output of glass by Peter Mollica includes a beautiful bath window of cool blue and white that is designed to provide aesthetic relief from the heat of the Japanese-style tub while steam from the water fogs the glass with a mystical quality.
New techniques include using ribbon-thin copper as a structural binder as Jad King does. He superimposes a motif of oak tree branches on the matrix of a geodesic dwelling. Casey Lewis, said to be the first to use enameled lead in colors, has done more than 60 windows including one for a sauna.
James Hubbell constructs total environmePts in which stained glass becomes part of a shaped or carved wall, door or roof. Mark Adams, who studied under French tapestry artist Jean Lurcat, did a wall of a large stairwell. Narcissus Quagliata does beautiful windows with simple flower and water themes. Ed Carpenters autonomous panels hang gracefully on windows, providing an architectural feeling that can identify harmoniously with the time and place.

Here's the Answer
By ANDY LANG AP Newsfeatures
Q. The sink in our kitchen drains very siowly and has been that way for months. I have tried everything, including chemicals and running a snake down the drain, but it doesnt seem to help. Lately, every once in a while, the water backs up into the dishwasher which is ri^t next to the sink. When that happens, more water runs into the dishwasher the minute you turn on the sink faucet. Can you tell me what could be causing this? No other sinks in the house are affected. The kitchen is over our garage.
A. It appears very much as though the pipe carrying the sink water to the soil pipe is clogged. When too much water gets into that pipe too quickly, the water has no place to go and so backs up into the dishwasher. You will find an elbow in that area of the garage ceiling which must be removed in order to run a snake or wire auger through the clogged pipe. Either you or a plumber will have to tackle the job. If the clogged material has hardened so much that a hand-operated auger will not go throu^ it, an electric auger will have to be used, in which case you definitely will need the services of a professional with the proper equipment.
Q. I recently purchased a bag of ready-mixed concrete, the kind that re<iuires only the addition of water. Since I needed only about half the bag for my first project, I poured out that amount, mixed it with water and proceeded with the job. A couple of weeks later, I used the rest of the bag for a second project. Tnis time, the mixture contained a lot more gravel than the first. I see now I should have mixed everything the first time, then added water
ON THE
HOUSE
to the part I wanted. How is this generally done?
A. When you intend to use only a portion of the bags contents, pour it all out, then mix everything with a shovel. Put back into the bag whatever you arent using immediately and tie up the tip of the bag so that it is as airtight as you can get it. Then go ahead and add water to the part you intend to use. If you just take what you need out of the original container, you wont get a good mixture because the ingredients will have separated in transit.
Q. The plastic webbing on our outdoor metal chairs is badly worn and needs replacing. I have seen the webbing advertised, but I am not sure whether I can get the old-looking screws that hold it in place. Do they come with the webbing?
A. The sheet metal screws and whatever else is necessary to do the job are available wherever you buy the webbing. They are sold separately. Since there is more than one way to attach the webbing, depending on the type of furniture, take one of the old screws with you. If there is any other hardware near the screws, such as small metal plates, take one of those with you, too.

A few months ago, there was a story in this space that, while most home buyers were willing to accept smaller houses, they were showing a reluctance to purchase stripped-down models.

Plants Help In Recovery
DETROIT (AP) - Plants have cheered up patients and speeded their recovery at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital, officials say.
And they add the horticultural therapy program is gaining acceptance in the United States in treating physically handicapped persons, the ag^, drug addicts and prison inmates.
St. Joseph officials said it was especially useful in the case of a middle-a^ man who had sustained major injuries, including loss of a leg.
The man, severely depressed, was encouraged to start administering first aid to a plant he had received as a gift.
As the plant regained its strength, the patients spirits strengthened. Soon he w^ singing to it and he felt less depressed, said Jane Towler, who started the ho^itals program.
The patient, since released from the hospital, comes back for occasional visits and his first stop is to see his favorite plant, she said.
Hospital auxiliary member Rebecca Osterhoff, in charge of the program in pediatrics, said it also has a helpful effect in treating children.
She said an 8-year-old mentally retarded boy awaiting brain surgery and a lO-year-old asthmatic girl were withdrawn and uncommunicative until they were assigned a plant to work with. They became animated and conversed with the therapists, she said.
Ms. Towler said the patient in effect becomes a doctor-nurse to the plant and tends to forget his or her own troubles.
Merle Moore, chief horticulturist in charge of the University of Michigans Matthaei Botanical Gardens, said the plant therapy course at St. Joseph could be considered a model for the rest of the country.

dent of Poretsky 4 Star, builders in Maryland and Virginia: People are buying down from a space stan^int because they want some of the extras. For example, in our part of the country, they still insist <hi basements even though slabs cost quite a bit less. You know what our biggest problem is? Bureaucratic delays and zoning restrictions. I wonder how many, perswis know that, in most cases, about 50 per cent of the cost of building does not actually, go into a house?
From Harry Powell Jr., president of the Lehigh Building Corp., which has put up more than 4,000 houses a few miles east of Ft. Myers, Fla.: People want to retain comfortable lifestyles no matter what the sizes of their homes. We give them some amenities regardless of the total square footage of the habitable area. From Allen Trellis, director of technical services of the National Association of Home Builders: People are willing to accept smaller houses in better locations. As for what is basic and what are frills, the images of those things change over the years.
From architect Herman H. York: While you must give the buyer a (]uality house, it is the frills that sell it in the final analysis.
From Larry Martin, consumer communications director of Fox 4 Jacobs, builders in the Southwest fiH* more than 30 years: Our bottom-of-the-line house, priced at $20,500, sold falily well more than a year ago, but we have dropped it because nearly all purchasers said they would pay more if fireplaces were included. Today, our big seller runs between 1,300 and 1,400 square feet, starts at $23,000 - and has a fir^lace.
From architect Samuel Paul: The trend toward smaller houses will continue to a cer
tain extent, but a sizable segment of the house-buying public will OMitinue to insist on houses that meet their requirements, among them the ri^t number of bedrooms.
From Duane McGough, acting director of Housing and Conununlty Analysis in the Department of Housing and Urban Development: Within the next year, there will be a big demand for houses between $30,-000 and $40,000.
From WUliam Mittendorf, chief of the Housing Starts Division of the Bureau of the Census: The statistics show that buying habits havent changed very much over the past year. There is still a tendency to stay with quality and most extras.,
From architect William Chlr-gotis; People think first of price. But when they find out it may mean an absence of some of the things they have become accustomed to, they decide to pay more to get what they want.
It is interesting to note that whoi the original article on this subject was written, the median price of a house was $48,000. Today, on the basis of the latest figures from the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, the average price of a new house is $50,500.

Anglo-American Campaign To Save Temple Bar
By PETTER J. SHAW
LONDON (UPI) - In triumph and in death, the rulers and heroes of Britain passed through Sir Christi^her Wrens Temple Bar, a classic triple arch that stood for two centuries as the City of Londons western gateway.
In disgrace the heads and butchered bodies of executed traitors and criminis were dii^layed on ^ikes atop it.
Wren designed the Portland stone gateway in 1670, five years before construction of St.
r
Pauls Cathedral began. It was erected two years later at the meeting point of the Strand and Fleet Street to rqilace a 13th century woodei gateway that survived the Great Fire of 1666.
Wrens famous landmark was demolished in 1878 when the new Law Courts in the Strand were built. A philanthropist brewer in 1880 took the
discarded stones to his estate north of London and re-erected it in sylvan setting. It
languishes there today, vandalized and rapidly decaying.
An Anglo-American campaign is trying to save Temple Bar and return it to the City of London, rebuilding it alongside the northwest comer of Wrens greatest masterwork St. Pauls.
The Temple Bar Trust has agreed to buy the triple archway from the Meux Trust, its present owner, for $2,160 the same amount Parliament paid for it in 1670. The original cost would be the equivalent today of $800,000.
Once gateway to the City of
London the center of the original Londcm and today the capitals financial district Temple Bar now stands roofless and derelict behind a 10-feet-high concrete piling fence.
Already hearts have been cut in the stone by vandals and the fabric of the archway is in danger of being ruined by the weather, said Trust Chairman Sir Hugh Wontner, a former Lord Mayor of London.

sounds an even more urgent alarm.
Bricks and stones have been thrown at the 300-year-old statues above the arches. The lead slate roof blew off in January, exposing the interior even more, he said.
Everyone realizes this is the last chance. Temple Bar will fall down in three years if something is not done.
The Trust is seeking $800,000 to finance the dismantling, transportation and re-erection of the gateway. Daniell 1h^ half can be raised in Britain and the other half in the United States, where Chicago lawyer Charles A. Bane is leading a Save Temple Bar effort.
If all goes well. Temple Bar would reopen alongside St. Pauls in late 1978 or early 1979 as a gateway into St. Pauls Churchyard.
Daniell said the site would be ideal and has the full approval of Britains Department of the Environment, which rejected 21 other possible locations and has promised to do all it can to see the project realized.
We decided it would be best to position Temple Bar away from the road, to prevent it from being destroyed by traffic vibration, Daniell said. The fabric of a building which is being erected for the third time is bound to be more fragile than normal.
'The chief enemy is vandals. Graffiti has increased every time Ive visited the monument
and includes automobile spray paint which eats one-quarter to one-half an inch into the Portland stone, increasing the cleaning and restoration costs. Daniell said he hoped the statues of four English mo-narchs (m the facade could be removed to St. Pauls early in 1977 to spare them further damage.
Just to restore Temple Bar where it stands would be less expensive but would Invite the 5,000 residents of the area to molest the monument, Daniell said. Building a replica would cost more.
Although missing a few cornices and the lead roof. Temple Bar remains much as it was when Sir Henry Meux rescued it and restored it on his Hertfordshire estate.
Its amazing that its in the condition it is, Daniell said.
It will take about sbc months to dismantle Temple Bar, another six months to transport it and then about eight months to reassemble it.
A team of 12 masons led by craftsman Ken Gardner would dismantle the monument piece by piece and transport the stones to St. Pauls in 200 separate journeys. Cleaning and restoration would follow. St. Pauls own masons would assist in the rebuilding of the archway.
History first refers to Temple Bar in 1293. The City of London had its western gates in Lud Gate and New Gate but trade

moving along the rough Thames riverside road to the royal City of Westminster through Charing Cross needed further protection. King Henry III ordered posts and chains set up and these in turn, probably in the early 14th century, became a more permanent structure.
Many pilgrims in the Middle Ages would have begun their travels to Canterbury at Temple Bar.
When Queen Elizabeth I entered the City in November, 1588, to visit the old St. Pauls Cathedral and commemorate the defeat of the Spanish Armada, she inaugurated a ritual observed to this day the Lord Mayors presentation of the Citys sword and keys to the sovereign.
Temple Bars gates were shut against the sovereign, who had to ask leave to enter his or her own capital. Once inside, the monarch was dutifully presented with the keys and sword in homage. Having touched them as a token of possession, they were immediately returnoM^ the Lord Mayor.
Although Temple Bar is gone and only dragon-tc^ped monument marks its original site, its historical significance survives as the place where London begins and Westminster, the Royal City, ends.
Shortly after Wrens Temple Bar opened, the archway took on a macabre aspect. From 1684 until 1772 the heads or butchered quarters of executed persons were exhibited on spikes over the gates or entrances to serve as a warning to other citizens and a further degradation of the criminal.
Dr. Samuel Johnson and Oliver Goldsmith were visiting Poets Comer at Westminster Abbey when Johnson said:
Perhaps some day our names may mingle with these.
Later, their walk took them through Temple ^ Bar where Goldsmith said to Johnstm: Perhaps some day our names may mingle with these and pointed to the heads impaled upon spikes.
Horace and Walpole wrote that it was possible to hire for a halfpenny a telescope or spyglass with which to see the heads on Temple Bar more closely.
'The head of Lord Fraser of Lovat, the last person to be executed on the block in England, was placed uptm Temple Bar in 1747. 'The la^ head to be put on the archway fell down in March, 1772, and the ^ikes were removed at the start of the 19th century.
Several monarchs, including Queen Victoria, passed throu^ Wrens Temple Bar enroute to St. Pauls. The funeral corteges of Lord Nelson and the Duke of Wellingtm went beneath the main archway, draped in mourning.
Pepys, Johnson, Bosweil, Dickens all knew it well.
After buildings supporting it on its north side were demolished in March, 1868, to make way for the new Law Courts, Wrens Temple Bar was declared unsafe. It was finally taken down in January, 1878, and its stones carted off to a rubble yard, where Meux salvaged them.
Since then, several efforts have been made to return Temple Bar to the City of London. All foundered on political or practical shoals.
Daniell believes his attempt will succeed. People are generally sympathetic. I think they see it as a conservatkm contribution and not necessarily a charitable project in itself.
Significant Ruling By Supreme Court
A A ^
MISSISSM>I SANDHILL CRANE - is the fint species to be protected against encroachment under the provi-skms of the 1973 Endangered Species Act in an actk upheld the U.S. Supreme Court.
By refusing to review an appeals court ruling, the U.S. Supreme Courts upheld the National Wildlife Federation's cwitention that an interstate highway should not destroy the habitat of the world's last surviving 40 Mississippi sandhill cranes.
The high court refused to hear an appeal from a Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision which reversed a lower court decision and stopped the Federal Highway Administration and the State of Mississippi from building an interchange on Interstate Highway 10 in Jackson County, Missisppi, near the heart of the cranes nesting territory.
The National Wildife P'ederation askel for the "stop order in a 1975 lawsuit, arguing that the interchange, and the development it would bring to the area, would destroy the habitat of the non-migratory birds
NWF stressed that it was not opposed to the highway.
but against a project design and an interchange that might wipe out the last of the long-legged cranes. It suggested, among other things, elimination of the controversial interchange. A ruling by a U.S. District judge in Biloxi, Miss., rejecting these arguments, started the case to the Supreme Court-the first case under the 1973 Endangered Species Act to reach that tribunal.
The high courts ruling will not necessarily leave a gap in Interstate 10, a Florida-to-Califomia transcontinental road. It will force the hi^ ways builders to comply with the law Congress passed in 1973 to protect endangered wildlife from just such projects. It will also, as the New York Times noted, put road builders < notice that the highest court in the land does not automatically recognize concrete as a sacred substance or the clover leaf as the natkmal flower.

Ukrainian Friend In Jamestown ?
By EDWARD ROBY
RICHMOND, Va. (UPI) - A Virginia city is named for Capt. Christopher Newport, a county for Lord Thomas Culpeper, and even grade-schoolers can recount tales of Capt. John Smith and other famous early settlers whose names dot maps of the Old Dominion.
But hardly anyone in the Virginia has ever heard of Lavrentey Bohoon. There are no towns or cities named after him.
Virginians seem determined to ignore Smiths friend and companion even though he was the first icnown Ukrainian colonist in the New Worid, according to Lev Blonarovych, a Ukrainian-born Richmonder.
He describes Bohoon as a Cossack pioneer who helped make a go of the first permanent European settlement in Virginia. Blonarovych said he is out to scotch the rumor the Jamestown Island
colonization was purely an English endeavor, and he has authorities to back him up.
For example. Volume II of the scholarly Ukraine; A Concise Encyclopedia has this to say:
Captain John Smith, who fled from a Turkish prison by way of the, Ukraine and came to Jamestown, Virginia, mentions in his memoirs a physician, Lavrentey Bohoon (Bohun) who accompanied him.
The Ukrainians in America by Dr. Michael B. Kuropas, F^ident Fords special assistant for ethnic affairs, mentions the same colonist, filing his first name Lavrenty, dropping a letter.
This same man later accompanied Smith to Jamestown, Va., writes Kuropas.
Blonarovych pointed out that the name Bohun is held in special esteem in the Ukraine, Ivan Bohun having been a renowned Cossack warrior.

Between 6:00 And 6:30 P.M. Weekdays And 8 Til 9 A.M. On Sundays.
Historian James Haskins of the Yorktown Visitors Center was unable to shed much light on Bohoons origins.
There was a Dr. Lawrence Bohoon at Jamestown, said Haskins. He was a member of the council from 1620 to 1621 when he was killed in a seafight.
Haskins said his sources were the manuscripts of George C. Gregory and Thomas West, Lord de la Warr.
The only discrq)ancy is this particular individual came three years afterward, at Just about the time Smith was leaving, he said.
Blonarovych said he thought Bohoon may have been associated with the group of eight Poles and Germans who arrived in the colwiy in 1608, but Haskins said the records show Bohoon arriving in 1610. Smith left in the fall of that year, he said, perhaps on the same ship that brought B<^n.
As for the variations in his name, the predominantly English colonists may have merely Anglicized it, something that happens ail too often even today, said Blonarovych.
He said Bohoons story is authentic.
Capt. Smith was quite an adventurer and at that time the Ukrainian Cossack encampment was on the lower Dnieper, on the border with Turkey. The Cossacks ruled that area and made forays into the Turkish Empire. This was part of their business.
The story goes that when they sacked one of the cities, Capt. Smith was a prisoner held for ransom there and he joined them.
Bom near the 1,000-year-old walled city of Premsyl, Blonarovych immigrated to America and served three
years in the U S. Army before settling in Virginia.
Certainly I feel like I am going in the footstq)s of my Cossack forefather, Bohun, he said.
A U.S. chess master and Richmond chess champion four times, Blonarovych is assistant chief engineer at the McGuire Veterans Administration Hospital. He also is secretary of the Richmond Ukrainian Club and a representative to the 82-year-old Ukrainian National Association, which favors in-
dependice for his homeland.
It was the Rus, a Ukrainian tribe, which teamed ig> with a band of Vikings to found Kievan Rus and launch the Russian empire 1,000 years ago.
Althou^ they gave their name to the largest country on Earth, the Ukrainians have always fought a losing battle against foreign domination.
The Texas-sized Ukraine, now a republic within the Soviet Union, achieved independence for only three brief years, 1917-1920.
Cachaca Is The Drink In Brazil
By PENNY ROGERS MONTES CLAROS, Brazil (UPI) All over Brazil almost every small farm has its own distillery for making cachaca from fermented sugar cane juice. Its the Brazilian rum, the national beverage, second perhaps only to coffee. As one Brazilian said, Every farmer makes cachaca and every Brazilian drinks it. Its a sacred national institution, like soccer and samba.
At one farm near Montes Claros, some 400 miles north of Rio de Janeiro, the sugar cane is processed from January to June fed into a small press to extract the juice which then runs into great dugout canoe-sized logs. There the fermenting agent, com and ash, works its 15-day magic. The logs are blackened and seasoned from over 20 years of use in the small, shadowy one-room factory.
From the logs, the juice goes to a 600-quart boiler, where a wood fire distills 100 quarts of pure cachaca. This young liquor is stored at least one year in 500-gallon hogsheads before bottling.
The older it is, the smoother it tastes, says Nelson, chief of the distUllng (^ration here and connoisseur of cachaca. He attributes his good health to a glass of cachaca pura (straight) before each meal and a little in the evening.
The 200-acre farm grows its own sugar cane and com, houses the eight men and their families who work on the cachaca operation, which includes bottling and transporting the finished product to market in town. Its a self-sustaining operation. Each bottle proclaims that it holds the finest of sugar cane nectars. Its Malu-quinha brand is quaint and apt, meaning Crazy Little Lady perhaps from too much inbibing?
In season, the distillery hums along seven days a week to produce some 36,000 bottles in six months. The final cost to the consumer is about $1.50, which makes it a medium-priced cachaca.
The pleasant cdonial-style farm is called Fish Lagoon. Entwined blue and pink flowered vines cover the stucco walls and tile roofs. Ducks, sheep and cows saunter freely. The owner is Dr. Joao Vale Mauricio, a local cardiologist. In the main house a museumlike living room features a hundred-year-old telephone, the first in Montes Claros.

ONE OF THE FINEST CARS IN THE WORLD
INTRODUCING
The Answer
Corolla 2 Door Sedan Model 1401
THE ANSWERWith the lowest price and highest gas mileage of any new car sold in America, the 1977 Toyota Corolla two^oor sedan is the answer to
everything the consumer has been looking for in a small car. Powered by a 1.2-liter, four-cylinder engine, the car has a price of $2,788.^lt achieved 49 miles per gallon on the highway and 34 m.p.g. in the city in EPA economy tests. In California and high-altitude areas, the mileage varies because there the car is powered by a larger 1.6-liter, four-cylinder engine to meet stricter emission standards. The two-door sedan features a four-speed manual transmission, new grille design, power front disc brakes, high-back bucket seats, styled-steel wheels and power-boosted flow-through ventilation.
* This price does not include N.C. Sales Tax, dealer prep, title and license fees, etc.
100,000 Miles
Or 3 Years New Car Warranty
USED CAR WARRANTY
12 MONTHS OR 12,000 MILES
This guarantee applies to cars selling for $1000.00 and up. On a SO-SO basis. All work must be don* in our shop. This warranty does not apply to any sport cars, high performance or air cooled engines or 4 speed transmissions (except economy cars). Most good used cars (even if they look like new) are only guaranteed for a month. Or for a thousand miles. No more. And some are not guaranteed at all. But at Tarheel when w* say a used car is in excellent condition, we're willing to stand behind it. We're wilHng to do something a little extra for it. So w* guarantee its motor, its rear end and its transmission for twelve months or twelve thousand miles. If you're in the market for a better used car, com* out to Tarheel and look at ours. We'll show you some as good as new. Guaranteed. Asterisk denotes warranted car.

Winter In North Country: They Survive And Enjoy
By RICHARD McFARLAND
MINNEAPOLIS (UPI) - The blizzards will howl and the thermometers will plunge far below zero but people in the north country insist you can be comfortable and even have fun in that kind of weather.
No need to hibernate. Just be prepared for the cold and snow and enjoy it.
International Falls and Bemidji, Minn., often run a ciose race to be ice box of the nation, with temperatures falling to 40 below zero or colder. Minneapolis and St. Paul in southern Minnesota are milder, with coldest temperatures more like 20-30 below.
But people keep moving and dont even slow up much.
A New York newspaperman wrote years ago that Minnesota in winter was unfit for human habitation." Angry St. Paul people started an annual Winter Carnival filled with outdoor festivities to prove winters are fun.
Thousands of people in the north race over the snowy countryside on snowmobiles at 40-50 miles an hour in the winter, and skate and ski down hills or cross coutry.
The ardent fisherman heads for a lake with a fish shack behind his car and chisel in hand, ready to cut through 2-3 feet of ice in search of anything with fins on it. Families even go to parks for picnics in the snow.
The secret, various authorities say, is to be prepared.
liiere are all sorts of good tips for this, like the old mountaineer saying;
If your feet get cold, put on your hat.
When the temperature is around zero most body heat escapes through the top of the head like a chimney. Heavy wool stocking caps, fur caps and down caps are ideal. Goose down jackets, snowmobile suits and Insulated mittens and boots also are big sellers.
Towns in the far north sink water mains at least eight feet below ground level to escape frost. Even then theres no guarantee. Once at Bemidji, the frost went down 12 feet.
Motorists in the far north fill car radiators with almost pure anti-freeze, protecting them from temperatures down to 80 below.
Many drivers Install electri
cally-operated tank heaters in their motors to keep oil and engine blocks warm. Occasionally a motorist has tried to thaw his engine by building a wood fire under it but fire departments frown greatly on the practice.
Motorists sometimes get free parking in far north communities because the meters freeze
up.
City, county and state crews try to plow roads promptly after snowfalls, but when temperatures fall to 40-50 below they often give up. At that temperature the steel blades get brittle and sometimes break.
It can be a pretty serious business trying to drive or walk
in blizzards, but David Timothy Kneeland, director of the Institute for Survival Education, Seattle, has advice on that:
Stay calm if you go into a ditch. Try to relax. Stay with the car, the best shelter available.
Keep a survival kit in the car, including wool blankets,
space blankets or sleeping bags, stocking cap, mittens, wool socks, scarves, big plastic garbage bags for keq>lng dry and cutting heat loss, candle, matches, flashlight, insulated bottle of warm liquid and a whistle and mirror for signaling.
And a prayer book, Kneeland added.
If you get stalled in a Uizzard with no survival kit, Kneeland advised: Cut into that car. Rip out the headliner in the car roof and wrap it around you. Use rugs and floor mats and tear upholstery from seats to keep warm.
One of the best insulators is a newspaper, he said.
- A skier, hiker or snow-
mobiler should carry a pack, with a warm coat, rain gear, bottle of water, matches, candle, whistle, mirror, medical kit, pad for sitting on snow, map, compass, plastic tarp, tape, knife and candy bars for energy. ^
Another bit of advice from Kneeland;
Hug a tree. It makes you
stand still long enough to calm down and figure out what to do next.
Now that everyone is ready for a fun winter in the north, Warri Nordley, head of Daytons travel department in ^Minneapolis, reports:
'A'record number of people are making reservations to fly South this winter.
Diy Weather Aids Brewery
EDEN, N.C. (AP) - The dry summer may have hurt farmers in this north-central section of North Carolina but it was a boon to the $132 million plans of the Miller Brewing Co. for a Mid-Atlantic Brewery.
We got off to a good start with regards to the weather, said Tom Blaedon, Miller field engineer. The dryness during the summer months enabled our grading efforts to proceed largely uninterrupted.
Blaedon said the steel framework for the five-story brew-house will be in place this month and the concrete foundation for the nearby 505,000-square-foot packaging center and warehouse is being poured this week at the l,600^acre site near the Virginia line.
A million-gallon oil storage tank already is in place. The brewery is scheduled to reach production in late 1978, with an initial capacity of 3 million barrels per year. Ultimate capacity will be more than 8 million barrels annually.
Isaac Hayes And Wife
Bankrupt
MEMPHIS. Tenn. (AP) -Academy Award winning sing-er-composer Isaac Hayes and his wife have filed personal bankruptcy petitions in federal court, indicating debts of $6 million, an attorney said
Attorney Gary Plotkin of Los Angeles said Wednesday that Hayes has given up his own business ventures, including Hot Buttered Soul, Ltd., in Memphis.
Hayes, whose Oscar-winning score for the movie Shaft made him an international star, now records for ABC Records in Los Angeles.

ST. EUSTATIUS. Netherlands \ntilles (UPI) The centuries-)ld cannon of Ft. Oranje, silent or 200 years, roared 11 times, uiswering the U.S. Destroyer viacDonough in a Bicentennial eenactment of the first formal udute ever paid to the Vmerican flag by a foreign wer.
The salute highlighted holiday .'elebrations of Flag Day on Jiis seven-square-mile island in the Netherlands Antilles. It commemorated the arrival at St. Eustatius of the American warhsip Andrew Doria in 1776 and the 11-gun salute given by the fort in recognizing the Continental government of the American revolution.
Secretary of the Navy J. W. Middendorf, Netherlands Minister of Antilles Affairs W. F. de Gaay Fortman, Lt. Gov. Maxwell Pandt of the Netherlands Windward Islands, U.S. and Dutch dignitaries and top brass of the navies of two nations joined about half of St. Eustatius' 1,200 citizens for the ceremonies at the old citadel.
The MacDonough substituted for the Andrew Doria, and the
U.S. destroyer T. C. Hart and two Dutch destroyers took part in the ceremony.
Proclaimiing we are celebrating the birth of a nation, Tourism Minister James Maduro and the audience applauded and cheered as the MacDonough rendered a 13-gun salute to the fortress.
Then, with a Dutch navy lieutenant running from cannon to cannon along the forts ramparts pulling out fuses, 11 blank cartridges detonated in
the cannons in iswer to the U.S. salute.
In 1781, England sent Adm. Sir George Rodney to the Caribbean to destroy what he called this rock which had done England more harm than all the arms of her most potent enemies.
Rodney, 3,000 troops and 15 ships of the line reduced St. Eustatius to ruins on a summer day in 1781.

A Review
'The Blue Hammer' A Study Of Guilt
THE BLUE HAMMER. By Ross Macdonald. Knopf. 270 Pages. $7.95.
In conventional thrillers, a cringe is committed and, after a couple of hundred pages, it is solved. Ross Macdonald does not write conventional thrillers. Rather, he writes novels that contain some of the elements of thrillers.
Macdonalds work often has been compared with that of the late Raymond Chandler, and rightly so. Both writers were more concerned with the effects of guilt and sin than with the crime which provided the framework for them to create their studies of men, and women, in stress.
In The Blue Hammer, the human drama detailed concerns not just one man, although he is the focal point, but spans the generations. Can- a wrong committed by the father affect the son? In Macdonalds
gripping novel it not only can but does so with disastrous effects.
Things start out simply enough. Private detective Lew Archer is hired by a wealthy, and not very joyous, couple to find and return a valuable painting that has been stolen from their home.
As he moves forward. Archer encounters a number of people all seemingly unrelated and yet very much so. All carry a burden of guilt from the past.
One minor quibble: the text really doesnt need to have Archer fall in love with a level-eyed brunette of about thirty, who was well-shaped but rather awkward in her movements, as if she werent quite at home in the world. But, perhaps, its about time Archer had a love interest.

Everything you always wanted to know about IRA.
Q. What is IRA?
A. An Individual Retirement Account.
Q. How does it work?
A. Each year you deposit a portion of your income to your IRA. The amount you deposit can legaUy be up to IS^/o of your annual earnings, but cannot exceed $1,500 per year.
Q. Does IRA earn interest?
A. Yes. The highest rate allowed by law.
Q. How is it different from a regular savings account?
A. There are some big differences.
The amount you deposit isn^t subject to taxes. For example, if you earn $15,000 this year and deposit $1,500 to your IRA, your tax base would drop to $13,500. The tax break applies to interest earned too.
Q. How do I start an IRA?
A. Come to Home Savings before December 31, and we*U be glad to get you started.

mania. Josif Ton. He is its only chance.
That unusual thesis, raised as a challenge to the atheist policy of communism, had made the Oxford-educated Ton a target of investigations in his hcmie-land. but it also has gained him a wide following among students and intellectuals.
The Marxist system was predicated on developing a new man, free of egotistical OMTtgjtion and greed. Ton says in his analysis, but its atheist assumptions reject the self-transcending motives necessary to do it.
Consequently, socialist society finds itself in a paradoxical situation, he writes in his controversial paper, extensive excerpts of which were published in the evangelical fortnightly, Christianity Today.
In teaching people that they are only chance combinations of matter, governed by Darwinian laws of adaptation and survival, their attitudes determined by environment, people lack the motivation for goodness, Ton says. They see that in a purely material world <mly he who hurries and grabs for himself possesses anything.
Since Marxism, to work, needs to produce noble character of hii a^iration, ready to sacrifice self for societys cn-mon good. Ton says the Mily answer to the problem is in
historys supreme example, who possessed the most noWe who sacrificed himself for the
It is the ideology of the one character of all, Jesus Christ, good of his fellow men.

Flora Purim: From Prison To Top Queen Of Jazz
By PETER J. BOYER Associated Press Writer
IX)S ANGELES (AP) Jazz singer Flora Purim stepped
lightly from behind the dark wailing the blues. The frowns walls of a federal penitentiary fortune have been shadowing last December and walked I ever since, smack into a set of problems N sooner had she gained her that would have most people freedom than she found herself forced into a feverish work pace to pay off a huge record company settlement. And she is constantly hounded by immigration authorities who want to remove her from her newly-adopted homeland.
Is she nursing a case of bitterness over the events of the last two years?
No, of course not. she says, breaking into a hearty laugh. Besides, my voice register is too high. I could never sing the blues.
Indeed, the Brazilian-born musician exudes a spirit as high-flying and free as her silky vocal improvisations, which have helped her bump such jazz traditions as Cleo Laine and Ella Fitzgerald from the top of the jazz heap.
She has become the ^een of Jazz, her coronation underscored by Down Beat maga
zines naming her top singer of the year in its upcoming December issue, the third time Miss Purim has been so honored by the prestigious jazz periodical.
That painful 16-month stint at Los Angeles harbors Terminal Island federal prison on drug charges only served to make me strong, she says, resting in a cottage behind her rented Hollywood Hills home. She is resting after one of many trips to the San Francisco area where she is feverishly recording to work off a debt to Fantasy Records.
Its a drain, she says, flashing an infectious smile, but Ill make it. Im tired, but Ill make it.
It is with that attitude that Flora makes minor problems out of calamities that might have driven other performers into the ground.
When you are locked up, says Miss Purim, punctuating her thickly accented English with a symphony of gestures.
the only way out is here (pointing to her head).
She is working with fervor at Fantasy a small Berkeley company specializing in jazz because her managers want her to get out of contractual obligations with the firm, which doesnt have the vast distribution machinery of larger companies To get out of the pact, all she has to do is pay Fantasy $250,000 and cut four albums for them.
But that may be the least of her problems.
Because of her conviction for possession of cocaine, federal authorities are trying to send Flora back to Brazil. Threatening to stop her dead in her tracks just as she is poised over the threshold to super-stardom.
I have a lot of hassles with the immigration, theyre trying to deport me, she says. But Im fighting it on the grounds that I have an American child and my family is legally in this country.

Eddie Kilroy Not Stereotyped
By JOE EDWARDS Associated Press Writer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Eddie Kilroy, head of Playboy Records country division, is Nashvilles most atypical music executive. He drives a pickup truck rather than a Cadillac to work, doesnt play golf and is on the job by 9 a.m.
Hes out^ken. Principled.
And resented.
People talk about corruption in politics, but they should see the record business, he said in an interview. I cant think of one label in this town, other than ours, that is straight.
Ninety per cent of Nashvilles record producers risk accusations of conflict of interest by producing songs originating from their own publishing companies that are separate operations from the record companies or producing songs from persons who influence them with gifts such as cars, he said.
He said he bases his accusations on feedback from various publishing companies and songwriters that are shut out at

Theres no way for me to say what the things are that, change hands, he sid. Thef could be cash or gifts. I think if I put the word out, I could come to work Monday and there would be a Cadillac sitting out front. Some people will do just about anything to lock up a successful producer.
I dont know if they are breaking the law, but they are lacking in integrity and breaking moral law. This will be the downfall of this town.
Others disagree.
Kilroy, a bearded, curly-haired 35-year-old, said hes resented because of his bluntness and indq)endence.
Honesty has made me more enemies than friends. he said.

SPLIT LEVEL SPORTS PRACTICAL FLOOR PLAN
PLAN YOUR HOME By Jtrry Bishop
Aulomaiic zoning lakes over in the Walden, an engaging split level home that finds each activity area on its own level.
The entry level shows the formal living and dining rooms, backed by a functional kitchen, while bedrooms and family room each dominate a level for their type of activity, l ayered with battened plywood siding, and bvered with a shake-shingled mansard roof, the trim exterior is low-mainienance and shows the same practical approach as the interior.
Entry is into a foyer, fringed by coal closet, that permits immediate access to guest areas. Living and dining rooms, clearly separate, join to
provide a spacious center for entertaining that is preserved by design from any crosstraffic.
Back the hallway from the iteoNO njooR
I
foyer, a roomy eat-in kitchen stands ready to serve the adjacent dining room or provide snacks to the family room steps away.
The lower level is shared by garage, laundry, family room, and half bath. Since the family room opens via sliding glass doors to the patio, the arrangement is ideal for families with children.
Play activity can be totally confined to this level, and the patio entry prevents any need for tracking muddy shoes through kitchen or living room. Conveniently, the garage opens into the family room to simplify carrying groceries and parcels from car to home.
Up several steps from the foyer is the sleeping level, comprised of four bedrooms and two baths. The sizable master bedroom is benefited by private bath and walk-in closet, and the second bath offers a linen closet.
Based on practicality, the

Give More Consideration To Mates' Home Comforts
By VIVIAN BROWN AP Newsfeatures
Wives want a good New Years resolution? A four-times married man suggests you give more consideration to the home comfort of your mate in 1977.
Many husbands are treated like boarders. They must ask permission to put a glass on the polished table top. Men are no longer lord of the manor, not that I'm suggesting such a thing in these days of liberation. But a husband ^ould at least have equal rights. The average home is female dominated and oriented and not designed for a mans comfort.
A mans needs may be differ-eig from his wifes in the art of living. More muscle and more work tension makes their requirements for relaxation and occasional isolation important to their happiness, he says.
Here are a few simple ways
he suggests to make a haonier home life for the man in your life.
Encourage him to spend some time alone. If a house is big, perhaps a family room, attic or dining room could be converted into a den or subdivided into a little niche where a comfortable chair might be screened off. When a man returns from work in the evening, let him unwind. He may want a brief nap. He may want to sit quietly and think out the days problems or read. Such respites may be necessary to his survival. Be cooperative.
He may tolerate your color schemes, floral patterns, niffles and lace, but his own private abode should be of his own contrivance. A man likes a rugged look. He wants to be able to kick off his shoes in an untrafficked world. Most men abhor the word decorating. They
dont like a rigid code where things out of place are swoq)ed up before they can be enjoyed. Most women are too hung up on appearances to enjoy a home comfortably and seldom tolerate a mans effort to get out of the strait jacket he has worn all day. He himself, the man adds, has often felt like a schoolboy trying to get permission to live in comfort in his various homes.
Save the days horror stories until after he has had his dinner. The childrens shortcomings, current bills, feuds with neighbors and unpleasant gossip can add to his tension.
Consult him about the ac
tivities that relate to the home. What colors in the living room? What kind of new chair shall we buy? And dont veto his suggestions before he utters them. A man wants to feel more useful than the guy who takes out the garbage.
Most women dont realize that they would be far happier if they let the man have a voice in the running of the home (or let him think he has.) A subtle woman, the much-married man says, can get her own way by cleverly persuading him that it is what he wants, too.
In one home we had a 22 by 18 foot dining room that had been used only four times in two years, but the wife who

Q. Ive read about thornless blackberries. Are they for real? If, so, will they grow here? (R.A., Ramseur)
A. The answer to both of your questions is yes. Thornless blackberries are for real. Two good varieties are Black Satin and Dirksen. Both do well throughout the state, but Dirksen is best for fresh eating. Both make excellent jams and jellies. (Joe Brooks, extension horticulturist)
Q. Please tell us how to prune nandinas. (W.R., Dallas)
A. Nandinas require a bit different type of pruning than most shrubs. If nandinas become unsightly or too tall, cut entire plant back to near ground level anytime during dormant period. Than each year, during winter months, cut out approximately one-fourth of older canes. Remove these near ground level. To stimulate new growth at base of plant, cut canes near ground level. Many gardiers do this pruning during Christmas season to obtain decoration material. (Henry J. ^ith, extension landscape mrticulturist)
Q. I had several trees cut down in my front yard and would now like to get rid of the stumps. How can I best do this? (L.G., Ker-nersville)
A. Dq)ffl)ds upon how soon you want them removed and how much money you wish to spend. Most tree service companies have portable mechanical stump removers which actually cut out the stump to the desired level below the ground. These devices may be available from some
rental outlets. A practical though slower way to remove the stump is to assist the natural decay process. To create conditions ideal for the rot fungi, sprinkle liberally a hi^ nitrogen fertilizer or powdered milk on the stump, mulch with grass clippings jor well-rotted sawdust and keep moist. Drilling holes in the stump would expose more surface area and should increase the rate of rot. (William M. Stanton, extension forest resources specialist)
Q. I have trouble with mealybugs on African violets. My florist told me to swab them with alcohol, but they ke^ coming back. (Mrs. G. H Roxboro)
A. Mealybugs are difficult to control because they wedge into crevices of African violets and other houseplants. Some species-even feed on the roots. Spray thoroughly with maiathion once each week for three weeks. Follow label directions. Keep the African vioiets out of sunlight until the foliage is dry. (J. R. Baker, extension entomologist)
Games to a very great extent reflect the social feelings of their time, says Randolph Barton, president of a major board game manufacturer.
Take monopoly: it was introduced in 1935, invented as a way to escape from the Depression, Barton said. About 80 million have sold to date, and it has been published in 14 languages.
Tastes do change. The deluxe edition of 1936 had plastic pieces, then considered finer than wood. The reverse now is true. Barton said.
Very early on, in 1904, there was a Sherlock Holmes game. In 1938, the Lone Ranger was put into a game. Our latest is 10-Four Good Buddy, he said. It reflects the popularity of Citizens Band radios with their special jargon.
The largest selling board game last year was based on the Six-MUlion-DoUar Man TV show, he said.
Educational values are secondary, at least to this company, just as they were when 15-year-old founder George Parker invented his first board game. Banking, in 1883.
He was 16 years old, and he
wanted to be a journalist, said Barton.
In Puritan New England (Parker was a Salem, Mass., boy, and the company remains there to this day), card games or anything to do with money was considered wicked.
Because cards were frowned on, none of the companys early games had point values.
But nobody apparently frowned on the theory of making money, Barton said.

ON THE
HOUSE
By ANDY LANG AP Newsfeatures
No matter how much the idea of making a plumbing repair may intimidate you, as it does some persons, the replacement of a faucet washer, the cause of most leaks, is something you can handle.
Although some of the newer faucets do not utilize washers, they are seldom troublesome and so far form only a very small percentage of the faucet equipment in existence.
As for the faucets with washers, while there is a large variety of them, they all operate on the same principle: when a handle is turned, the stem of the faucet closes down on the valve seat, shutting off the supply of water. If the washer on the end of the stem is worn, it
permits a trickle of water to get through. Because the water quickly disappears down the drain, it is hard to imagine the large quantities of water that are wasted and that, in the case of hot water, force the furnace or water heater to work harder and longer, thus wasting energy.
The water to the faucet being repaired must be shut off. Most of the time this can be done by turning the handle under the fbcture in a clockwise direction. If there is no such handle there, as might be the case in a very old house, you will find it somewhere else on the water line, usually in the utility room or basement.
The handle of the falicet itself is held in place with a screw.
Here's the Answer
By ANDY LANG AP Newsfeatures
Q. The new house we bought about a year ago had no gutters. I am going to attempt to install metal gutters myself. Can you give me some idea of the amount of pitch there should be for the water to flow into the downspouts?
A. The pitch should be one quarter of an inch for each foot of gutter.
Q. Can you tell me what shoe moulding is and what it is used for?
A. Shoe moulding has two flat sides and one curved side. It is used against baseboards, with one flat side fitting against the baseboard, the other flat side against the floor.
went with it shrieked when I moved a comfortable chair into it so 1 could read in solitude, he recalls.
Another wife moaned when he removed a tie or jacket in the living room "and some nights I was too tired to give a hang. One wife resented it when he stretched out on a sofa. She would sigh as she put a towel under his head. On one oceasion. she. complained that perspiration from his hands must have caused stains on the arms of the chair upholstery.
In addition to having a hangup about people seeing them with their decorating down, he contends most women want the undivided attention of a man when he is in their presence.
And shouldnt a man have equal space for his treasures? If a woman can put .her dressmaking dummy in the bedroom and her wig stand in the bathroom. why cant a man put his sports trophies where they might be visible? he asks.
He is proudest of his prize-winning mounted salmon, he explained, but he has never been able hang it in one of his homes. One wife "couldnt believe I would kill such a beautiful fish. Another declared it did not go with the decorating scheme, and one said her decorator told her it would clash with the wallpaper. A fourth wife intimated that it was either her or the salmon. So he took his salmon and now has a nice bachelor apartment and knows what he has been missing all these years.
Q. In using paste filler on open-grained wood, do I rub it in with the grain or across the grain?
A. Go first with the grain, then across the grain and, finally, with the grain. This will insure that the filler gets into pores. In the movement across the grain, which is the most important, use a brush first, then rub with a piece of cloth, such as burlap. In the final operation, use a cloth to rub with the grain. Do this lightly, since it is primarily to smooth out the finish. Wait about 24 hours, then apply a sealer. Do not attempt to put on the final coat of whatever material you select until the sealer is completely dry.
Q. I had heard that, when pouring turpentine from a can, it is best to pour it from the side of the spout. Whenever I do this, the turpitine dribbles over the side of the can. How come?
A. Because the turpentine should be poured from the container while the spout is at the tq), not at the side.
Q. I understand there is a type of wood bleach that can be made with oxalic acid. Is it better than the regular commercial bleach?
A. No. The commercial bleach is scientifically blended to reduce the possibility of uneven results.
Q. I inherited an old table saw with three new saw blades. What Id like to know is how to cut grooves into wood.
A. There are several ways to do this, one of which calls for special washers that rotate the blades to permit the cutting of grooves. But the easiest and safest method is with dado blades of varying widths. While these cost more than washers, they do a more accurate job.
Q. I bought some unfinished pine furniture and would like to change the color of it. Can I use stain on it?
A. Yes. First test it on a part of the furniture that will not show. Test a small portion of the stain directly on the wood, then test another part with a coat of diluted shellac, then the stain. When you have determined which best suits your taste, go ahead with the entire job.
sometimes visible and sometimes hidden under a cap cover wliich comes off easily. Unscrew the handle and remove it.
If there is a large nut on the outside of the faucet, turn it counterclockwise with a wrench with smooth jaws. To avoid damaging the metal, place two pieces of adhesive tape over the jaws of the wrench. If there is no large visible nut but there is a decorative bonnet on the faucet, take It off. When you do, you will find a nut underneath. Again using the wrench and again turning It counterclockwise, loosen the nut, which vrill permit the faucet stem to be screwed or lifted right out of the faucet fixture.
At the end of the stem you will find a washer, held in place by a screw. Remove the screw and the washer. Replace the washer with one of the same size. Put back everything In reverse order.
You should always have a box of assorted washers in the house. But if you do not, take either the old washer or the faucet stem to the hardware store with you to get one of the same size. Be sure to caution everyone in the house not to turn on the water supply to the fixture while you are gone.
Every now and then, after putting a new washer in the faucet, the drip-drip will continue. Open and dose the faucet half a dozen times or more to permit the washer to set itself pnH>erly. If the drip continues, you will have to buy what is called a faucet dresser or valve seat grinding tool. Disassemble the faucet the same way you did when replacing the washer. After the stem has been taken out, insert the tool into the opening in the faucet fixture and turn it according to the directions that come with it. What this does is to smooth the valve seat, which may have developed some irregularities over the years and permitted water to move past it.

The Dally Reflector, Greenville, N.C.Sunday, December M, 17BE-7Salvagers Seek Sunken Japanese Treasure Ship
By MARIANNA OHE
TOKYO (UPI) - The sunken Japanese treasure ship being hunted by an American salvage company in the Formosa Strait carried only $14 million in rubber, tin ingots and industrial diamonds and not $249 million or $5 billi(M) as reported, a Japanese-American salvager claims.
Minoru Fukumltsu, a Tokyo-based businessman who has been studying the case of the
Japanese freighter AWA Maru for 20 years, said reports the ship carried $5 billion in precious metals and other treasure are grossly exaggerated.
Fukumitsu, who came to Japan in 1947 as a war crimes investigator, was commenting on reports a group of Americans are negotiating with Oiina for salvage ri^its to the frei^ter which was sunk by a
U.S. submarine April 1,1945.
The freighter, guaranteed safe passage by the allies to carry relief goods from Japan to American prisoners of war throughout Asia, mistakenly was torpedoed by the U.S. submarine Queenfish about 14 miles off the Chinese mainland.
Fukumitsu, who wrote a book published in 1973 in Japanese about the AWA Maru incident, said he cannot understand why the vehH> of the cargo is being
exaggerated.
I dont want these people to mislead the world that there was a great treasure aboard the AWA Maru. I dont know w4iy they made the announcement and exaggeration.
Fukumitsu said the AWA Marus cargo at the time qf sinking consisted mostly of rubber and tin ingots worth about $14 million, and industrial diamonds not worth more

than $3,000 altogether.
A copyrighted story in the San Diego Evening Tribune estimated the treasure at $5 billion and said it included $30 million worth of uncut diamonds.
One group of Americans reportedly negotiating with the Chinese for salvage rights to the AWA Maru includes ex-Astronaut Scott Carpenter; Jon Lindber^, son of the aviation pioneer; and Capt. John E. Bennett, a retired naval officer who was navigator of the sub Queenfish which torpedoed the Japanese freighter.
Fukumitsu said Bennett was working with him on the salvage project until March this year. TTien he went his separate way and joined the other group. I guess he thought there was more money in working with them.
(In San Diego, Bill Bunton, head of Salvage and Diving, a firm wliich has been trying for 2V4 years to get Chinese permission to salvage the AWA Maru, said he estimates the value of the salvage wouldnt run any higher than $249 million.
Bunton said my whole thing is based on the 3,000 tons of tin aboard. The price of tin, he points out, has doubled since he became Interested in the AWA Maru. That tin would now be worth $28 million he said. He said some of the higher estimates of value are based on bales of currency and said 1 totally discount that... it would have long since been destroyed. I am only interested in the nonferrous metals.
Bunton also said if there are any important artifacts aboard the ship he doesnt want them. Ive told the Chinese I will give them all the artifacts because I feel they belong to China.)
Fukumitsu said he formed the Honolulu-based International Salvage Corporation earlier this year for the specific purpose of salvaging the AWA
The New Year of 1977 is to be ushered in cheerfully and noisily in North Carolina with an unusual celebration in the village of Cherryville.
The event is called a New Years shooting and on January 1 two groups of men will greet resMwits of Cherryville with a chant, a burst of powder from muskets and wishes for a Happy New Year for occupants of homes.
The celebration is of German and English origin and is over 200 years old.
In what may seem a delayed celebration, citizens of the village of Rodanthe on the Outer Banks will mark the advent of
Old Christmas this year on January 8. Here residents and their visitors celebrate two Christmases regular Christmas on Dec. 25 and Old Christmas which falls in January.
Usually Old Christmas is celebrated on the Saturday nearest January 5, the 12th day after Christmas. Several explanations have been offered for this tradition. One is that it is the date the Magi arrived in Bethldien^ with gifts for the Christ Child. Another is that it hinges (Mi the changeover by Great Britian and her colonies from the Julian to the Gregorian caloKlar in 1752.

He said he made an overture to the Nationalist Chinese government on Taiwan five years ago for rights to salvage the remains and belongings of more than 2,000 people who died on the AWA Maru but got

Reconciling The Two Sudans Is A Difficult Task
By WILLIAM JOHNSON
RUMBEK, Sudan (UPI) -Four and a half years after the end of Africas longest war in its largest country, the southern Sudan still is trying to pick up the pieces.
More than one million persons reportedly died in the 17-year jungle war often referred to as Africas forgotten
conflict between southern Sudan's indigenous blacks and the Arab Moslem-dominated government to the north in Khartoum.
Tens of thousands of refugees fled to nei^boring Uganda and Ethiopia and tens of thousands of miles of southern Sudan were devastated with entire villages wiped out and crops
destroyed.
President Jafaar Numeirys government has received high marks from international agencies for his efforts to reconcile the "two Sudans." But the task of developing the south is so enormous it will take years, even if the government can maintain the current fragile unity.
The southern Sudan is one of the worlds most inhospitable regions, a land of dense jungle, mud, marsh and sweeping
plains.
Samuel Baker and other explorers passing through southern Sudan more than 100 years ago in search of the source of the White Nile described it as a living hell.
The Sudanese claim that, When Allah made ie Sudan, Allah lau(^.
Whn the 1972 ceasefire was signed Numeiry promised sweeping reforms to improve the lot of the souths four million blacks, who have traditionally been dominated and deprived by Khartoum.
He has attempted to keep his
promise, but the task is enormous and progress has
**^ctan is Africas largest nation and the south itself Is as big as Texas and New Mexico.
The entire country has only around 100 miles of paved road and movement is often impossible in the s(H]th during the rainy season.
The governments first task was to entice refugees back to their homes from surrounding countries.
First we had to resettle thousands of people, a high goverment official said in the southern capital of Juba.
The government did this by Integrating the army and government ministries and giv
ing southerners a much greater say in affairs than they oijoyed before.
The peace, however, is frage, hinging partly on Numeiry himself.
For years we fought with spears, poison arrows and nety bullets, an old Anya-nya bush fighter said in this market town.

The Secret Ufe of John Chapman, a dramatization of Haverford College president John Colemans unique sabbatical in the blue collar world, will be seen Monday, Dec. 27, 9:30 to 11 p.m. on CBS Channel 3N-9-11.
Ralph Waite, the father in
The Waltons, stars as the TV counterpart of Dr. Ctdeman, who recounted bis experiences in his book, Blue Collar Journal. The teleplay by Albert Rid>en, based on that best-sella*, takes a college president who su^rects theres more to the world than whats inside the halls of ivy
frnn his campus crffice into a variety of laborers jobs. Susan Anq^acb plays a waitress he meets in a restaurant where hes a riiort order cook, Pat Hingie a construction boss who takes him on as ditchdigger, and Brad Davis and Elayne Heilveil his children.
Guy Lombardo, the famed orchestra leader who has be) ringing in the New Year with Auld Lang Syne over the airways since 1929, will preside ova the festivities again this year with the Royal Canadians playing the sweetst music this side of heavM, on New Years Eve With Guy Lombardo, a i>ecial to be broadcast live, Inriday, Dec. 31,11:30 p.m. to 1 a.m.,iCBS-rv.
Ihis will mark the 48th year in a row Lombardo and his orchestra have welcomed the New Year on CBS.
Guest-starring will be Carol Lawrence and Billy Eckstine.
A highli^t of New Years Eve With Guy Lombardo, which wil originate in the Grand Ballroom of the Waldorf Astoria in New Ywk City, will be a live remote pickup of the crowd at Times Square in Manhattan as midnight approaches.
Newsca^r Bi Grauer will serve as Times Square host and provide commentary on the traditional crush of merrymakers.
. At 74, with naore than 50 years in show business behind him and crowds still fiiling dance halls when he brings the Royal Canadians in, Lombardo looks back at the hi^i^ts and the changes with varying feelings. The strongest feeling, however, seems to be one of contentmeit with the way it has all gone.
Longevity is the keynote with Lombardo and his business dealings. As for the future, he sees it as nothing more than climbing back on the bus, vriiich has carried him about 2,000,000 miles during his career, and heading for another engagement.
There havent been many nights off, not with sommer shows, plus coicerts and dance
bookings criss-crossing the U.S. and Canada. Surprisingly, the band has never played outside North America.
Where many rock fans wouldnt go near a Lombardo cmicert, it was the college kids years ago who help^ propel the Royal Canadians into prominence.
Weve always embraced all audiences, Lombardo says. We were a college band in many ways, but we drew the mothers and fathers, too. We were never a waltz or cha-cha band or anything like that. We were always middle of the road. We had the sound, and it was a family band,
Guy Lombardo put the super-sweetner into the big band sound, and he's put that very-special traditional sound into New Years Eve. Come to think about it . . . what would New Years Eve be without him?

American Condition Presented On ABC
As the country approaches a new year with a tw President, ABC News examines how Americans see themselves and their future, in the documentary special, The American Condition, airing Sunday, Dec. M, 7 to 8 p.m., on Ch. 3W-5-12. Harry Reasoner is the narrator.
Marlene Sanders, ABC News Vice President and Director of Television Documentaries, says the feport wiH focus on three vital areas: the economy, the status of blacks and the effects of bureaucracy.
We will examine these issues in human terms, Ms. Sanders explained. To assess inflation, unemployment and the outlook ahead, we go to a small town in the Midwest Pecatonia, 111. which we believe serves as a microcosm of the national economy.
In looking at the pro^press and pnKpects of urbanized blacks in America, we concentrate on the skilled black industrial worker and his problems. Our story on bureaucracy centers on a public housing project for the eideriy in Danbury, Conn. Here construction work for the project took six months, but the paperqork took two years. We explore why.
In Pecatonia, 111., Mrs. Peggy Mehr who can find only part time work to support two children, comments; You just have to cut down your dream to the point where its reality.
ABC News presents a filmed portrait of this prairie town and its p^le. For them economic survival depends on the surrounding farm community and the availability of jobs in
two Industrial centers 15 mes away.

Sean Connery returns to the screen acames Bond to deal with a mysterious billionaire whose international influence is felt but never seen, a fortune in diamonds hidden in a coffin, the threat of nuclear subs and nuclear missiles, and a laser beam designed to conquer the world, in Diamonds Are Forever, an encore presentation airing as The ABC Sunday Night Movie, Dec. 26, S to 11:30 p.m.
As is only natural for the super-suave super-agent (Connerys sixth and final appearance in the role). Bonds accomplice in crisis is the gemlike Tiffany Case, played by the lovely and talented Jill St. John. The perenially preposterous Ernst Stavros Blofeld (Charles Gray), a longstanding subject of Bonds righteous wraUi, is down to his old tricks as he plots the domination of the entire wwld and environs.
Lana Wood (as Plenty OToole), Jimmy Dean (as the elusive billionaire) and Bruce Cabot (in his last film appearance) are also involved in Blofelds plan to declare open season on all the worlds governments.
After Bond smuggles a diamond-filled coffin into the United States for delivery to a Las Vegas crematorium, he is accosted by two thugs who attempt to feed him to an incinerator. Angered and confused, the out-tricked trickster calls iq>on his arsenal of wit and

What he finds is the archvillian Blofeld, who needs the diamonds for his ambitious plan to use a space satellite to aim a laser beam at all the capitals of the ymrid (after blowing up a few military installations just to prove he can do it.) World leaders have a choice: declare allegiance to Blofeld or fry.
These alternatives are not acceptable to world leaders. Bonds new assignment (and he has no choice but to accept): make Blofeld stop.

Hingle Is Multi-Faceted
Hes rugged and rou^, and bosses that construction crew as if he were bom. to it. Hes bemusedly brainy, wlking around that book-lined study as if be belonged there.
Hes Pat Hingle, demonstrating why th^ call him an actors actor, on The Secret Life of John (%apman, M<m-day, Dec. 27, 9:30 to 11 p.m. on CBS Ch. 3N-9-11. But if viewers arent tipped off in advance, theyll have little way of knowing that the steel-hel meted construction boss in the drama is also the gentle white-tbatdhed Thomas Edison in the one-man show that occupies the programs (xnmnercial minutes.
These two roles, light miles apart, are typical of Hinges almost 30 years as h actor. In the theater, in films and <m televisiiHi, hes played Just about every conceivable part from a Cockney panhandler in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde to the title role in Macbeth; from the awesomely taxed Job of Archibald MacLeishs J.B. to the tormented Willie Loman, sample case in hand, seeking yesterdays success in Arthur Millers Death of a Salesman.
In The Secret Ufe of John Chapman Hingle plays a cameo role in a cast headed by John Waite.
Waite considers his role in the drama to have been a very rejuvenating experience. It
made me again glad I was an actcH* because I could go as deep as I wanted in this script, and give as much as I had to give. Most actors complain that their scripts are so supacial.
This scrfot allowed me and the director and everybcxly KXHiraged me - to dig as I wanted to the dqiths of this human being, to present a full human being in front of the camera. The only limitations are my limitations. There are no more excuses.
There is no more ardent booster of The Waltons than Waite but he understands the confinement inhermt in the five-year-old series. ConsequenUy, he all but lusted for the chanc to turn loose acting drives bottled iq) so long because there is no place fcH- such emotional roller-coastering when he is portraying father John Walton. . - ir-

There probably isnt a more glamorous position in college football than being quarterback at Notre Dame.
Just look at the people who have been Angelo Bertelli, Frank 'Tripuka, Johnny Lujack, Bob Williams, Gus Doris, Joe Theismann, Tom Clements, John Huarte, Paul Hornung and Ralph Guglielmi to name a few. Four Of them, Bertelli, Lujack, Hornung and Huarte went on to win the Heisman Trophy.
Its a dream many youngsters have few eventually enjoy. Rick Slager is one of the select few. 1 always wondered if 1 could start at Notre Dame, he once said, and now he leads the Fighting Irish into the Gator Bowl to face the Penn State Nittany Lions. The game, to be played Monday, Dec. 27, at 9 p.m., will air on ABC-TV.
Fate hasnt always been kind to Rick Slager since he first came to Notre Dame as a frOsh-man in 1972.
If there werent injuries, there was someone ahead of him.
Even when he had the job, there was always talk that someone could do better.
I guess Roger Staubach (Dallas Cowboys quarterback) said it best, he continues. He said, As a quarterback, youre either in the outhouse or in the penthouse. Well, its nieeto get a breath of fresh air.
Based on his performance against Northwestern, which earned him National Back of the
Week honors by Associated press and Midwest Back of the Week by United Press International, It appears Slager will be breathing the fresh air lor as long as he wants.
Or as long as he Is able. A lot to playing ci^lege football is luck, he adds. You know, being in the right place, not having any injuries. The litUe things make the differaice.
I came to Notre Dame because I enjoy throwing the ball, the Cfolumbus, Ohio native continues. He also chose the school liecause he know he would have a chance to play tennis. A former Ohio state champion for two years in high school, Slager played No. 1 singles for the Irish when it didnt conflict with his football and pre-law studies.
Right now, footballs more important. TTiats why Slager elected to take the extra year eligibility aii Ipjury provided.
I wasnt sure I would start, he says about that decision. There are so many capable people here who can play the position. If I had known I wasnt going to play, 1 still wouldn't have chanjged my mind. I enjoy participatbig with this team.
I would say there is no limit to what this team can accomplish,Slager concludes. It has outstanding personnel and everyone gives everything theyve got.
Including Rick Slager, the starting quarterback at Notre Dame.

Sullivan played hospital scenes with Alan Alda as Hawkeye, who. becomes temporarily blind after a gas-stove explosion. Eyes bandaged, Hawkew doesnt realize that his hospital roommate (Sullivan) also lacks vision.
As a steady traveler of the ni^tclub and concert circuits, the Boston-born Sullivan is accustomed to playing to audiences. His greatest national exposure-came from singing the National Anthem at the last Siqier Bowl football game. For one who has always had to cope with a physical handicap, this new diallenge of acting posed no more difficulty than earlier ones.
From the beginning, Sullivan was determined that nothing was going to keep him from living a full life, d^ite the pronouncement, within his family, that he would never be like other children.
If you accept such a pronouncement, he ways, you learn to love being pitied. The handicapped person has to get into life, and society must stop putting him behind gates.

Across From Coffman's ,
Cindy Williams says she took the part of Shirley on Laverne and Shirley strictly for fun, for a lark with no serious intention whatsoever. And what hiqipaied? Shes now the co-star of a hit show on TV (seen Tuesdays, 8:30 to 9 p.m., on ABC) famous, making mon^ and working every day.
Being co-star of a hit show will drive you crazy, but I love it, she exclaims. You have a show to do, promotions, personal appearances, guest shots on other shows, State Fairs, business and political conventions, being asked to be Queen of one thing or ^een of l^mething else its nice to be p(^ular, but you just cant fit it all in.
As a professional, Cindy began with small roles in TV produc tions, then struck with a major role in the film American Graffiti, followed by a big role in another notable picture The Conversation. Beyond that, she worked in TV for the past few years in such shows as Hawaii Five 0, Police Story, Petrocelli, Room 222 and on a well-received TV special called The Migrants. Why, then, the change-of-pace?
I was tired of playing tragic, sad and serious young things. I wanted something li^t and fun. And this series seemed to offer that.
Penny Marshall, Laverne in the series, is more modest, and tends to almost apologize for the success shes enjoying. ThisX what Ive always wanted. I just nevr dreamed it would cmne all at once.
Shes the wife of Rob Reiner (All in the Family). Tiey were boro across the street from each other in the Bronx and lived face-to-face for seven years, but they didnt meet until they both came to Hollywood.
As a child. Penny had ab-sMutely no interest in show business, but she took dancing because her mother was a dancing teadier.
When the show premiered the

reviews were so mixed that few people gave it much of a chance, but within a few wedcs it was evidoit that ABC had a solid winner.
Cindy sums it up with, Its a great experience, doing Laverne and Shirley. Sometimes when I think about it, it dawns on me that I am being watched by millions every week to do the same moves and faces Ive been doing for my family and friends since I was a little girl. Thats whats so amazing about it to me. Im not doing anything much differently than I always did when I entertained my family and friends at home; but doing it here before the cameras makes me a big TV star.

Barry Weitz is a man who crosses his bridges before he gets to them.
Weitz co-produced In Tandem starring Claude Akins and Frank Converse to be rebroadcast as the Tuesday Movie of the Week Dec. 28, at 11:30 p.m., on ABC Channel 3W-5-12. Akins and Converse portray two independent gypsy truck drivers in the drama which was the pilot for the highly popular MovinOn series.
Its relatively easy to produce a situation on paper, but its another matter to produce the actual event, Weitz said.
Case in point. The script called for a bridge for Akins and Converse to cross in trucks. It
FIRE! BEING FILMED
Filming has started on Fire!, a two-hour TV movie starring Fred MacMurray, Vera Miles, Patty Duke Astin, Alex Cord, Donna Mills, Lloyd Nolan, Neville Brand and Ty Harden.
The drama concerns the devastating effects of a forest fire which imperils the life of a mountainous, lumber-producing community. A group of convicts on a road gang start the fire in an attempt to cover their escape.
Fire!, which will air on NBC-TV, is being filmed completely on location in Oregon.
Rafferty and his family stood by and watched as we began inching the trucks onto the bridge and backing them up, continued Weitz, and I couldnt help wonder why he was so amused. But hed just chuckle and say nothing.
Finally, after several takes of driving the trucks onto the bridge and backing them up, the crew started to pack and go around to the other side, when Rafferty told Weitz, You might as well drive the trucks straight across. Youve already tested the weak side of the bridge.

couldnt be just any old bridge; it had to be dilapidated, condemned, to create tension when the huge diesels inched their way over.
The producer found the bridge almost accidentally. On location scouting near Santa Paula (Calif.), he spotted it. Checking it out, he discovered it was the property of one Thomas Rafferty, who said he only let bikes and horses use it. But Weitz negotiated Its use for the filming.
Spencer Tracy, Milton Berle, Sid Caesar and Buddy Hackett head the all-star cast of Its a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, Stanley Kramers blockbuster comedy to be rebroadcast Friday, Dec. 31, 8 to 11 p.m., on CBS Channel 3N-9.

The story opens with a
Solving one problem only created another. That bridge wont even hold itself up, a safety engineer assigned to the company reported.
Undaunted, Weitz decided to film the trucks pulling onto the bridge, then back up and drive several miles to get around to the other side of the bridge and film the trucks pulling off. To record the view from beneath the structure, Louis Elias, head of the second unit, was tied to a length of rope and lowered over the side along with falling dirt and debris for special effects.
Pageant
Presented
Bruce Dern and Barbara Feldon star in Smile, a hilarious takeoff on that great American institution, the smalltown beauty pageant, to be broadcast for the first time on television on The CBS Wednesday Night Movies, Dec. 29,9 to 11 p.m., on Channel 3N-9-11.
During the final frenzied week of Californias Young American Miss pageant, bevies of determined young hopefuls are put throu^ their paces, hoofing, singing, posing and smiling! while surrounded by a swarm of hometown boosters and backstage politicians.
Spotlighted in this comic compendium of beauty-pageant follies are such characters as: the chief jiKlge, Big Bob Freelander, a used-car dealer who thrives on hype and high hopes; his teen-aged son, Little Bob, who thinks the girls are pretty as a picture and has peek-a-boo cameras to prove it; ex-beauty queen Brenda DiCarlo, the contestants mother hen, who marriage is laying an egg.

Russel Finch (Berle), president of the Pacific Edible Seaweed Company, his wife, Emmeline (Dorothy Provine) and her mother (Ethel Merman) in one car; dentist Melville Crump ((Rooney) and Benjy Benjamin (Hackett) in a third; and finally, furniture van driver Lenny Pike (Winters).
They are juSt in time to hear dying bank robber Smiler Grogan (Jimmy Durante) hint at the location of $350,000 in buried loot, and the treasure hunt is on.
The search takes various members of the group from the California desert to the seashore, across winding highways in a wild auto race and eventually leads to police detective C. G. Culpepper (Tracy).
AnuMig others who become involved in the treasure hunt are
Englishman J. Algernon Hawthorne (Terry-Thomas), salesman Otto Meyer (Silvers), Finchs brother-in-law (Shawn), a playboy (Jim Backus) and two pilots (Paul Ford and Ben Blue).

EMILY DICKINS(4 - Jidle Harris portrays the poet Emily Dickinson in a one-woman cdebratkm of her life and poetry in the drama The Bdle of Amhost, airing on Wednesday, Dec. 29 at 8 p.m. on PBS-TV.
What I think you get from Emily Dickinson, says Julie Harris, is what you get from any great writer all of life. Great writers can illuminate the realities of life not just tell us about them, but show us their inner li^t.
The Belle of Amherst is Julie Harris one-woman celebration of the life, spirit and poetry of Emily Dickins<Mi. During the 90-minute performance. Miss Harris shows us not only Emily Dickinsons Inner light, but her own when she gives one of the finest performances of her career. The Belle of Amherst
will have its television premiere Wednesday, Dec. 29, at 8 p.m. (repeats Saturday, Jan. 1, at 8:30 p.m.) when the recent stage hit comes to PBS.
In William Luces play, culled from Miss Dickinsons poems, notes and letters. Miss Harris plays Emily in various stages of her life, from her early teens when she writes that she will surely be The Belle of Amherst by her 17th birthday into her early fifties, when she had written most of her more than 1700 poems.
For Julie Harris, the play is the culmination of a long-term
offers to share his office with him. Shelley Fabares guests.

The Star Presented
Joan Fontaine, still glamorous three decades after winning an Academy Award, returns to TV in a dramatic role, playing a faded motm picture star, in a characterization that is the very anthithesis of her off-screen personality.
Having a contagious enthusiasm and zest for life. Miss Fontaine could never be mistaken for the self-indulgent former star she portrays in The Star, The CBS Late Movie Wednesday, Dec. 29, at 11:30 p.m., on Channel 3N-9-11.
The peripatetic Miss Fontaine, who keeps residences in New York City and Pebble Beach, Calif., maintains a year-round schedule that would rival that of the busiest of politicians.
never hear an offstage cue lii because whenever I made mistake I became so disorient and confused that my ez roar.
The Belle of Amherst wi for many viewers, be an in-dep . introduction to one of America most remarkable and talenb ' women. Julie Harris hopes h effort will provide the impecb for many people to further a quaint themselves with Mi Dickinsons Writing. Some p< pie think its remarkable th Emily Dickinson could write : well whi she herself lived sut a narrow life. But I chmt fe that Emilys life was narrow all. I think when she decided stay in her fathers house tt she chose the fullest possible li for her. She knew how great h talent was; I think she thou[^t . herself as a candle and the ii portant thing was to keep I flame burning. She knew si couldnt take it out into tl wind.

Paul claims he wasnt paid for some overtime work he did
during last season, but our sources say the real underlying %
reason he wants out is because of a Euit^an film offer.
Tragedy has again struck Hollywood in the untimely g
death of Jack Cassidy, killed in an early-morning fire in :
his penthouse apartment. Jacks ex-wife, Shirley Jones, is g
in seclusion, shocked by the death of her three childrens :g

Glad to report that a long-time favorite daytime actor, g
Peter Hansen, is returning to General Hospital after g
several months absence. Peter will be back at the first of the year in his familiar Lee Baldwin role. g
Meanwhile, Georgeanne LePiere, who plays Heather on g
that same soap, has reportedly broken off her romance g
with long-time boyfriend Brett Hudson of the swinging g

Almost evoything in camera range was fined with asbestos, except for the window casements which could be inexpensivdy replaced. Gas jets were installed in key areas. When director Harry Harris called for action, pilot lights ignited these jets and fire seemingly engulfed the old homestead.
At the end of each take fire hoses were played over the sets to cool them off and to extinguish any spark that might have been touched off.

Over the past five years, the cast of Sanford and Si (Fridays, 8 to 8:30 p.m. on NBC Channel 6-7) has grown appreciably best-known recurring characters -include Bubba, Hoppy and Smltty, Donna, Grady, and Aunt Esther.
One actress who appears in the series often plays a differoit character each time.
She is Fritzi Burr and she is always Fred Sanfords (Redd Foxx) nemesis. Fred 4s usually the one insulting the (^r characters on the series, but Burrs always get him back.
In one segmoit she and Fred are members of a special mayors committee and she is definately not in favor of his serving with the group. The feeling is mutual.
In another episode, she-is a part of an encounter group that visits the Sanford home. She is the member that clucks like a chicken. Fred Sanford wishes the whole group would fry itself, especially the chicken.
She has also appeared in the

Book, Family Ties Urged Film
Movie projects occasionally get started in unusual ways. Take The Hatfidcfe and the McCoys, to be rebroadcast as the CBS Late Movie Thursday, Dec. 30, at 12:30 a.m. on Channel 3N-9-11. Actually, the movie came into being when a man named George Edwards had lunch with an actor named Darrell Feety.
(^rge is an independent producer I met while I was working in the story department department of one of the studios, related Fetty. Several months ago I invited him over to my house to have lunch with myself and my wife, Carolyn.
George noticed a book on the Hatfields and McCoys on the cidfee table. He picked it up, wondering why we were invested in the famous feuding families.
Darrell sprung the surprise. Candyn is a McCoy. In fact, shes both a Hatfield and a McCby, her father being Charles McCby and her mother Myrtle Virginia Hatfield.
Cbrolyn and George talked for hours about the story and borrowed our book, Fetty continued. He took it to writer-director Qyde Ware, who hails from Hatfield-McCoy country. Ware wrote a script, Alpin Productkms liked it and took it to ABC who in turn gave George and (Hyde the green light to start iq) the feud again.
Fetty, who was born and raised in the feud country himself, visited many of the actual sites of the famed vendetta in West Virginia and Kentucky with Cbrolyn. They even met Cardyns 80-year-old grandfather, Allen Hatfield, who carries five bullets in his body and is married to his fifth wife. Hes a former sheriff of Mingo County, West Virginia.
Fetty is sure therell be no fussin and feudin back in the mountain country over this stoiy.
Once I had a script of the movie, Carolyn wrote her relatives on both sides, of
course about the project fand how the two families were going to be portrayed, reveals Fetty, who, like Ware and Edwards, was cognizant of the fact that the Hatttelds and McCoys did not approve of the way they have been depicted in other films about them.
Qyde went back to talk to them too, and ffxr the first time both clans like the way their famed kinidk are being shown. They feel it is very true-to-life, from the actual incidents to the dialogue to even the clothes.
Asked why his wife Carolyn didnt have a part in the film, Darrell replied:
George Edwards and Carolyn cooked up a gag i the casting director. He sent Carolyn in to see about a small role in the movie but she didnt get it. The casting director said she diAit look like the real McCoy.
And producer Edwards hasnt the heart to tell the man the tnith.

Voices that seem to come from a nearby graveyard haunt Jessica, feelings of jealousy plague her when she lo(As at the it Emily, and stories of a vampire who is said to haimt tbe house, do nothing whatsoever to aid her peace of mind.
Jessicas va^ie fears become screaming panic when sbe discovers the dead body of a neighbor only to have the body disappear before she can bring her husband to confirm the discovery That discovery is only the first of a series of events that could topple the soundest mind, events that seem calculated to scare Jessica.

Ohio Meets Colorado
Its Ohio State and Colorado in this years Orange Bowl. The Buffaloes and the Buckeyes will meet in Miami Saturday, Jan. 1, at 8 p.m. on NBC-TV for the Bicentennial version of the Big Eight vs. the Big Ten Showdown.
Ohio State lost their Rose Bowl berth before a record crowd of 88,250 to the University of Michigan. 22-0.
Any team that can best us that badly, said a gracious Woody Hayes afterward, had got to be No. 1. It was the. first time Ohio State has been zipped since a 20-0 loss to the Wolverines in 1964.
Ohio State is known as a rushing team. They prefer to go by land rather than by air. Coach Hayes has been quoted as saying, Only rushing teams win the Big Ten Title. This year theres no Archie Griffin for the Buckeyes, but they do have an outstanding fullback in Pete Johnson.
The Colorado Buckeyes earned a share of the Big-Eight Championship as they defeated both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. This is their first championship since 1961. They have their own powerful rushing attack in tailback Tony Reed. Against Kansas State. Reed romped for 140 yards in 36 carries as the Buffaloes gained 217 yards on the ground.
Both Colorado and Ohio State arrived at this years Orange Bowl on the ground. For sure the winner will be the one who peels the most turf.

Most pro football teams consider the season a success if they make it to the playoffs.
Oakland is a team possessed with only one thought the Super j^wl. Time and time again the Raiders line-up for the opening kickoff was the hands-down favorite, only to be upset by a quirk of fate.
Al] -Pro quarterback Kenny Stablek is tormented by his failure TO get the Raiders into the Super Bowl.
There is seldom a minute when I dont think about it. says Ken. During the offseason, I go a lot of places and do a lot of things. But theres just one thing in the back of my mind, and thats the Super Bowl.

Peach Bowl Airs Friday
Mike Voight, the University of North Carolina's sensational tailback, has joined an elite group of runners this season by rushing for over 1,000 yards in three different seasons.
Voight, a 6-0, 205-pound senior from Chesapeake, Va., has become the first player in Atlantic Conference history and only the ninth in all of college foE^ball to get 1,000 yards three times.
Last years Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year has accomplished all this in spite of an assortment of injuries that have affected his play most of this season.
In the University of North Carolinas final game of the season, the Tar Heels has a tn^athtaking 39-38 victory over arch-rival Duke. The victory gave the team a s(^ opposite the Kentucky Wildcats in Atlantas Peach Bowl, Friday,
Dec. 31. The game will be televised at 2:30 p.m. on Channel 3N-9.
This final game was Voights first regular appearance without injuries. It was an unbelievable performance reminiscent of Don McCauleys final game. McCauley, who owned most of the Tar Heel rushing records before Voight broke them, had 279 yards and 5 TDs against Duke in his last appearance at Kenan Stadium. Voight had scoring runs of 14.1,11 and 9 yards.
The records are nice, but they dont really mean that much right now, says Mike.

Weekend Takes New Approach
From a male point of view, its a lot more promising for a "wtnan to say you look interesting than to say you look important. Interest can get you ail sorts of worthwhile tnings even viewers.
This is Lloyd Dobyns speaking as host (and principal writer) of Weekend, NBC News late-night news magazine program now in its third season.
We believe Weekend is, by any reasonable standard, a success, says Dobyns. If what we believe is true, if it is a success, it is only because of the one rule the program has: Interesting is more important than important. It means that the audience has no duty to watch us, that we have a duty to make them want to watch, and that we believe the only way you can make someone want to watch is to make what youre doing interesting.
To be interesting in news is according to Dobyns. All ' ave to do is show people, what goes on around them. Not some dected or self-appointed.
talking about what goes on, but what actually goes on a real-life story, a tale of what is. :
Since it first went on the air, Weekend has filmed stories in 37 foreign countries and in 37 states and the District of Columbia.
It has done an attention-getting report on the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, the omtroversial and very rich Korean evangelist who is called Messiah by some and a quack by others. It has presented a true-life thriller on killer bees, a particularly vicious bre^ that is coming northward to the United States from Brazil at the rate of 200 miles a year. It has taken a close-iq) look at what is probably the worlds only unionized army Hollands. It has profiled a South Carolina dentist who does a land-office business making and fitting clirats with complete sets of false teeth for $50 with one-day service the norm. It has spotligjited a new phenomenon in toj^m* packaged sex tours!

FOR BENNY GOODMAN, clarinetist As a music great, do you ever go to rock c<Micerts. and. if so. what do you think of them?H.D.. Hami-ton. Ohio
I once went to a Rolling Stones concert but had no idea of what was going on. There seemed to be so much com
FOR JEANE DIXON, astrologer
If you foresaw a tragedy in your Ufe or in that of a member
of your fanUiy. what would yon do?John Hampton, Port Arthur. Texas
Id react just the way I do when I see misfortune in the future of anyone else. I believe in the old saying, forewarned is forearmed. The reason were given premonitions of danger is so that we can use our intelligence to avoid it. And what we cant avoid, we must learn to accept as Gods will for us.
FOR BARRY MANILOW, pop singer and composer ' Do you stiil write commercials?J.M., Alliance, Ohio
Before my records made an impact, I participated in creating a few dozen jingles, had a great time and learned enough to enable me to move on. I dont know why, but Ive recently been credited with turning out just about every jingle ever written. And if one more person tells me Im the one who wrote that MacDonalds one, I wont be responsible for what Ill do with my next Big Mac.
FOR ELIZABETH POST, etiquette expert ^Im a teenager whos constantly told manners were different when my parents were my age. Are they rMt?-^.G Poughkeepsie. N.Y.
Yes, and the biggest difference is the way our young treat our old. Its deplorable! In this country, there isnt the respect thats found in Europe. Youngsters cant get it Into their heads that those a generation or two ahead of them have much to contribute due to their experience and knowledge.
FOR LORETTA LYNN, country singer
Do you bdieve in reincamation?D.B.. Caqier, Wyo.
Yes. Once I tested something Id read, which said that with concentration you could re-live a past life. After letting my mind drift for a while, I saw myself as an Indian woman. I was near an Indian on horseback, and something told me he was my husband and chief of the tribe. 1 saw myself saying good-bye as he went off into battle. A few minutes later, there was a shot, and my husband toppled off his horse. 1 screamed, and the noise jolted me out of my trance.
FOR THE ASK THEM YOURSELF EDITOR
When 1 make a New Years resolution, I always wonder ^bout what celebrities decide. Do you know?P.E., Flint, Mich.
Opera star Beverly Sills always makes the same one: This year I want to spend more time with my family. Jerry Lewis, soon to make his Broadway debut in Hellzapoppin says: I resolve never to do anything that isnt perfect. That means no smoking, drinking, women, candy or golf. Just hard work. That way. Ill earn enough money to pay for my funeral, but Ill have died of boredom. Art Buchwald, the tongue-in-cheek columnist: Im with Jimmy Carter. I will not lust for any woman in my heart in 1977. Actress Deborah Raffin: My resolve; to improve my backhand in tennis.

motion on stage that wasnt related to music. Mick Jagger is probably to rock what Pavlova was to ballet, but no one seemed to be paying attention. I doubt the audience could hear the music; it was so drowned out and distorted by the amplification. All in all, I cant say Im in love with electronic sounds, but since Im in the business, I feel I must make an effort to understand them.
FOR JULIUS FAST, author of The Pleasure Book Why do some people feel guSty If they eujoy themselves? S.S., Medford, Oreg.
Society and a puritanical upbringing might be the cause. From the cradle, were fed the proverb, The Devil finds work for idle hands, and were convinced that If we dont spend our time doing something profitable, wer doing something wrong. In other words, enjoyment is virtually a sin. Once one is aware of the guilt, one is on the way to overcoming it and getting some fun out of life.
FOR PHYLLIS DILLER, comedienne
What was yoar biggest professional disappointmeat?
P.L., Little Rock, Ark.
The failure of both my.TV series. And the knowledge that I was to blame. 1 did not work hard enough or pay sufficient attention to the many details that make up a show.
FOR GUY LOMBARDO, Mr. New Years Eve
What musical training did you and your brothers haves L.SJL, Las Cmces, N.M.
I began to study music about the same time I started to walk. While we were in grammar school. Carmen, Lebert and I formed a band. From school dances we worked our way up to church socials. Our first big break was an appearance on a local Cleveland radio show. Tve learned a lot about music over the yearsexcept how to dance to it. The only way I can get around the floor is with a push and a prayer.
FOR JACK CARTER, comedian
Youve been around a long time, and Fm wondering why your career hasnt advanced further?T.J., Dover, Del.
My rotten personality has been a big deterrent. I'm a manic-depressive, live on the brink of destruction and have a sullen, hangdog look. In this business you have to be a walking smile machine and pleasant to everyone. Im not. Thats why Im not the big name 1 should have been.

HAVE WE HAD A YEAR! ANDMDWENEED IT!
It couldnt have come at a better time, our Bicentennial, and all over the country we not only celebrated but also rededicated ourselves to the ideals we were founded on.By Harriet Van Horne
As a nation, we have had some vintage years. But will any, linger as proudly in the memory as 1976?
We took the measure of our spirit during this Bicentennial year. And we found it good.
We emerge from our 200th anniversary with a new sense of identity. We arelets hear ruffles and flourishes the worlds oldest democracy. Our Constitution has been the model for all emerging nations aspiring to breathe ^ free. We are one of a half-dozen countries on this planet that still enjoys freedom of the press and free elections.
As the Bible says of Man we may say of our country: We are fearfully and wonderfully made!
We are not perfect, but come what may, we have been blessed.
Thanks to the Bicentennial, some of us now have a deeper awareness of our brave and bloody origins. Some of us know, for the first time, the names of the men who pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor that the United States of America might come to birthand endure.
In an almost mystical way, we needed this Bicentennial. Our pride still raw from Vietnam and Watergate
Harriet Van Horne is one of the countrys best-known essayists. Her special interests are politics and social trends, and she is also a frequent guest on TV and radio panel shows. She is the author of Never Go Anywhere Without a Pencil (Putnam).
needed a healing touch. It was time we believed in our own decency again. It was time we stirred our roots, time we took a long look at our own good earth.
History, by apprising us of the psst, wrote Thomas Jefferson, enables us to judge of the future.
Reaching our 200th year reminded Americans of how blessed it is to continue. That is, to maintain the traditions, to honor the Founding Fathers, and to hold back the barbarians that always lurk at the gates of civilized society.
It all came to a grand climaxour ^
pride, our love, our vigor and style ' in the Fourth of July celebrations, coast to coast. Was there ever such a day?
There were the tall sailing ships of 30 nations sparkling in New York Harbor. There were relays of marathon runners, carrying the torch of liberty through the 50 states. There was a horse race down the main street of Lexington, Kentucky. There were sunrise services at a wagon encampment on th% battleground at Valley Forge.
And somewhere, out in space, there roared a U.S. rocket, poised to land on Mars. Mans first serious venture beyond the moon. A Bicentennial event beyond the imagination of the Founding Fathers.
Try as we would, some of us could not remain cool and dry-eyed about this 200'^ Fourth of July. We were suddenly awash in emotions we never expected to feel.
Fastidious Americans who have deplored the noisy patriotism of flag wavers, now discovered the depth of their own patriotism. It was, as some poet has said, too deep for souiid or foam. We cried over this Fourth of July precisely as one cries at christenings, graduations and weddings. Out of -love. We heard America singing! We heard the street jazz in New Orleans, watched the Indian powwow in Oklahoma and saw President Ford land on the deck of the Forrestal. We watched all these happenings together, as a family.
Sadly, though, there were some profiteers among the revelers on the Fourth. They sold novelty, toys that broke in five minutes. They peddled standing room on piers and rooftops for five dollars and orange-tinted water for one dollar a cup. Where crowds
gather, thieves gather.
Were some time-warp to restore the Founding Fathers to us. would they look upon us, their progeny with pride?
If you are fairly prosperous, if you
are moderately educated, if you have glimpsed the dream of the men that begat us, then you could well say to Washington, Jefferson. Madison and AdamsLook, the dream came true! But for millions of your fellow citizens, the dream is impossible because even with all the joy weve exf>erienced, there are still unsolved problems.
Our greatest shame is our poverty and ignorance. Through general education, Jefferson saw a prospect of great advancement in the happiness of the human race. It would wound him to learn that 20 percent of us. in this land of compulsory free schooling, is illiterate.
No matter how sweetly this Bicentennial year lives on in our minds, it cannot gloss over the grim poverty of 30 million despairing citizens. We put out more flags, we marched and sang and sent forth a Freedom Train bearing a Howdy-Doody doll, an electric chair and President Fords Bible. *
We showed the world the very best of America on the Fourth of Julybut we went on hiding the worst from ourselves! In that 16-hour television marathon. we saw the essence ofAmerica s goodness. We saw nothing of slums, migrant workers shacks, prisons or the porn merchants in our decaying cities.
Looking back down the years, it may fairly be said that we have wasted much of our natural resources in riotous living.
Even so, were still on the threshold of a new eraperhaps even a new revolution. If so, well do better with our new revolution if we carefully study the lessons of the old. We have come a long journey, we are renewed in spirit, but there is much to de done.
Across the years John Adams shakes his quill at us. Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.
Reliving this Bicentennial year in
memory, I am reminded of the refugees who came here as displaced persons" after the last war. How moved they were, how eager to be Americans and how they shamed us for years for never hanging out the flag, never prizing our freedom, never caring enough!
Well, we are not so uncaring anymore. The Bicentennial year has brought us a new awareness of who we areand what blessings we enjoy Blessings upon 1976! Set it among the high tides of the calendar. p
It was a very good year. elS

Now that Christmas is over, I can't help remembering a yery different one many years ago when I had first written The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit. We had recently moved to a rich suburb outside of New York City, and apparently the custom there that year was for the msany affluent neighbors to give expensive gifts to the children of their friends and acquaintances. Business connections added to the presents, as* did people who wanted to become business connections, such as insurance salesmen and stockbrokers.
The mountain started to build up about'ten days before Christmas. And as Christmas grew nearer, it grew with "increasing speed. Long boxes wrapped in gold paper, big square boxes in red-and-white stripes, little expensive-look-ing boxes all silver-coloredthey arrived by mail and by special messenger. Most were addressed to my three children, and they soon formed a wall around the Christmas tree so high that the star of Bethlehem at the top threatened to disappear. Tags tied to the ribbons identified the givers of these presents. Most of the names were totally unfamiliar to me.
Ours was not the only house with a mountain of presents. The many suc--*cessful actors, producers, advertising executives and broadcasters who lived nearby were assembling whole ranges of mountains with foothills. Some of them even had Christmas trees two stories high which had been decorated by professionals. I had never known there was such a thing as a professional Christmas-tree decorator.
Our three children, then seven, nine and 10, did not pay much attention to all this. In the parst they had made a joke of looking in closets to locate hidden presents, but this mountain of gaudily wrapped boxes right out in the open defied speculation. On Christmas morning, however, the children were, as usual, up at dawn. They threw themselves against the gifts like soldiers against an enemy rampart. Shreds of brilliantly colored paper flew in every direction. As their excitement increased, 1 could think only of sharks in a killing frenzy. When 1 finally insisted on calling a halt and putting the rest of ' the presents in the attic until we could

FAMILY WEEKLY, December 26,1976
WHATMAKES A HAPPV CHRISTMAS? TW01ALES0F GIVING AND GETTING
Today our Christmas holiday is a joyful, family event with handmade gifts, carol singing and the surrounding warmth of friendly neighbors. But it wasnt always that way
figure out what to do with them, I think the children were relieved.
That Christmas had another surprise for us: In the afternoon, the wives of our friends stopped by to show us the gifts they had received from their husbands. A white convertible, a diamond bracelet, a mink coatall were proudly exhibited. Since I had not progressed beyond the stage of giving my wife a dressing gown, a pop-up toaster and a bottle of perfume from the local pharmacy, I found this display of the generosity of other men unnerving.
What did you get? our friends asked my wife.
Oh, it hasn't come yet! I blurted out. Its a surprise, but it will have to be late.
I never like to lie, but how can one
allow ones wife to compare a pop-up toaster to a convertible?
All that was a long-time ago. Now, instead of living in one of the wealthiest counties in New York State, I live in one of the poorest and most beautiful. In our village of Ticonderoga, in the foothills of the Adirondacks, we have an old farmhouse. My youngest daughter, Jessica, is about the age my eldest was 20 years ago, when the children charged the mountain of presents.
Jessica lives a very different kind of life. Here there are no professional decorators of Christmas trees. In fact, Ticonderoga is one of the leist places where a Christmas tree still is a do-it-yourself project, beginning with an ax. A forest of Christmas trees surrounds us, and all you need do is get permission from a friendly farmer to cut one.
Like many people, we make our own decorations. I started this when Jessica bit into a glass ball that lacerated her lips. The next year, all the decorations on our tree were edible. Gingerbread men, strings of popcorn and cranberries, candy canes, apples and oranges nothing a child could not touch. The success was so great that we have recreated it each year, even though Jessica is well past the stage where she finds danger in glass balls.
Gone, too, is the mountain of presents. In Ticonderoga, fortunately, friends rarely give presents to the children of friends. Everything under our tree came from members of the family. Many of the gifts were hcindmade. Jessica, for instance, made paperweights and pen stands in which she embedded fall leaves, the feather from the wing of a blue jay and an Indian arrowhead. My wife measured my old sweaters and knitted very fast when I wasn't looking.
Throughout most of the Christmas vacation, the many hills surrounding our mountain village eire thronged by children trying out their new skis and sleds. A new sled or a p>air of skis is considered a very big present around here, something to be treasured and passed on to younger brothers and sisters. A child who received a big present like a sled would not ordinarily expect something else, except, perhaps, a few trinkets in a stocking. Judging from the merriment of the children on the slopes, the happiness of Christmas obviously does not depend on the quantity or quality of the gifts. If they had a whole mountain of presents, those youngsters could not be as happy.
As in an old New England village, much of the social life revolves around the churches. Most of them have festive suppers during the holiday season. The Baptist church, for exEimple, has an especially active program for children; it even ran a bus to a town 50 miles away which has an indoor swimming -pool, and it has a group that sings carols. As the kids go from church supper to church supper, from one group of carol singers to another, I think they begin to believe that they belong to all the churches.
Its all so different from that experience so many years ago. So much more real. So much more full of what we used to call Christmas spirit. And, nm yes, so much more meaningful. am

Carr' pre^ it76 isgWen

By Tom JCennedy
It was haivest time in Georgia when little Jimmy Carter was born. His home was
typical of the poor, southern farmer who knew only kerosene light, well water, outdoor plumbing and work. And before many more harvests went by, Jimmy Carter was helping in the familys little farm store and tending the peanut fields. But his horoscope makes it clear as a Georgia morning that he was destined for more than just peanuts.
Carters horoscope indicates a man with great self-confidence. Proof of this is Mr. Carters complete confidence that he will be pre-adent. .Why is he so sure? His horoscope indicates that after his religious experience in the mkldle 60s, he would change from tiller of the land to leader of the land. Strong planetary patterns emerging for him in 1976 back up his belief.
Comparisons of Jimmy Carters horoscope with those of other presidents show that he has many characteristics and interests in common With other presidents. Like Abraham Lincoln. Carter s horoscope indicates poverty in early life, i^eat honesty and sincerity. Both began their lives as poor country boys.
Both George Washingtons and Carter's horoscopes show a closeness to the land. Both were farmers. Similar placements in Harry Trumans and Carters horoscopes indicate strong family ties and a great bond with their partner. Here again, both men relied on their wives as their chief advisor and enjoyed long marriages.
Even more dramatic is a comparison of Carter s horoscope with the late President Kennedys. Both show an affinity for water. John Kennedy was a PT boat captain in World War 11. while Jimmy Carter was an officer aboard a nuclear submarine. Great charisma was pointed out in both horoscopes and Carter certainly does have that Kennedy charm about him.
.Analysis of Jimmy Carters natal horoscope shows a strong man who can cope with large issues. It indicates optimism, breadth of vision and an analytical approach to problems. His horoscope not only predicts that he will be our next president, but shows that he has all the qualifications to be a great president.

Because you were born, you >ourselt have
a unique natal horoscope, different from all others. I 11 show you what it can mean to you by-using celebrities for my examples.
Your natal horoscope can help you discover your hidden talents.and give you the confidence to use them. RxSbert Redford w as once a starving artist begging on the streets of Paris. His horoscope clearly indicates his acting ability. Fortunately, he discovered this hidden talent in time.
Your horoscope can advance your career and bring you wealth. There was a time in the life of Barbara Walters that she couldnt afford a lipstick even though her horoscope indicates great wealth. .Also. Jupiters influence in her chart makes her somewhat of a gambler. She made it pay off by making a change from NBC to ABC and a multFmillion dollar position.
Your horoscope can bring you love and romance. Several years ago, producer John Foreman unintentionally invited both Robert Wagner and Natalie Wood to his party. They hadnt seen each other since their split nine years before. But in making a comparison of their charts, it was found that an aspect in Natalies chart indicated that a chance meeting would renew an old love. Of course. Bob and Natalie were remarried in July of 1972 and have been blessed w ith their first child.
ysis of your natal chart is called your natal horoscope. .Astrology is not fortune telling and your horoscope does not cause things to happen to you.
Your horoscope analyzes your personality and then tells you what things are most likely to happen to you. But remember, your free will can override events in your life if you put your mind to it.
As youve seen from the examples Ive given you, some of the most famous people used their horoscope to reach success, but in other instances ig-

POR WHOM THE BELLS TOIL:THE STORYOF OUR FIRST TELEMIOHE
The telephone has been around for just over 100 years now, but when the Levensons fnally got theirs, it was a major social event and was soon put to use for their entire apartment building.By Sam Levenson
Its a long way back to my own first telephone, a homemade walkie-talkie secret no-battery intercom made of two oatmeal-box cylinders connected "by a waxed string. My brother Albert would put his oatmeal-box receiver to his ear and I. eight inches away, would yell into the mouthpiece at the top of my voice, Can you hear me? (You could hear me in Detroit, without an oatmeal box.)
I really didn't need a telephone to keep in touch with my friends. All I had to do was to extend my hand and touch them. A local call. Anyone not in the immediate vicinity could be reached by other methods. You could yell up the dumbwaiter or tie a note to a cord and lower it from the rooftop * to the desired floor, then run down and tell to-whom-it-may-concern to pull in his message or wrap a note around a rock and throw it through a window or leave a message under the door, knock, and run away. If the people upstairs were noisy, you banged on the ceiling with the handle of a broom. If you did this vigorously enough, you could even get to see them making the noise.
You did not have to dial a taped recording to find out the weather; you just looked out of the window and you knew whether. Besides, by the time 1 was three years old. I already had corns that bothered me when it was going to rain. I listened to them.
Some buildings had a public telephone on the ground-floor wall in the hall next to the Janitors apartment. Our janitor would answer the phone and yell, Who in the hall do you want? Once he caused a major panic when he painted over the wall around the phone on which we all had written
Sam Levenson, a native New Yorker, started his humorous observations on life, love and the pursuit of happiness as a teacher in Brooklyn. That led him into show business, and he made his nationwide debut as a TV personality on the Ed Sullivan show. He has written several books. His latest. You Can Say That Again, Sam! is an anthology of his choice wit and wisdom.
phone numbers, cutting off about 30 young girls from possible dates.
Families with only sons had no need to take in a phone. Let the girls mothers get the telephones. Where there were one or more daughters to marry off, a phone was a necessity. We had one sister. That was enough to force Mamas hand. (I had a personal interest in getting Dora married and out of the house. It meant I would get a bed to sleep in.)
When we got our first phone. Papa called a meeting to discuss ways and means of financing it. We agreed th*at we would each pay for our calls on the honor system. Papa cut a slit into a little teabox in the shape of a trunk, then put a large lock over the latch of the trunk. Whenever you make a call, youll put a nickel into the slot. For good will. Papa started us off by putting two nickels into the slot himself. At the end of the first month, not only did we have a bill for $4.82, but Papas two nickels were missing.
We had to teach Papa how to use the two-part telephone. You put this thing to your ear and this thing to your mouth. Completely bewildered. Papa asked, And with what should I talk? He eventually learned to use it, but he thought that the farther away the person with whom he was talking, the louder he had to talk. The day he called Jersey City two fire engines showed up at our house.
Even in those days there was a common practice of calling yourself long distance on a person-to-person basis when you were away from home. Then your family knew you had arrived safely. So when Papa went to visit his brother in Canada, we got a longdistance telephone call from Montreal. Mama picked up the receiver to hear the operator say, I have a long-distance person-to-person call from Montreal for Mr. Hyman Levenson. Thank God, said Mama, and hung up.
At'first, our phone didnt get much action, since most of the people we knew didnt have phones, and the same people never dreamed that we could have one. But it wasnt long before the neighbors found out that the Levensons had a telephone and calls started to come in. We became the message service for the entire building, with
Papa as switchboard operator. We had to devise a code for calling different people to the phone. If you knocked on the steampipe once, that was for Mrs. Burns, twice for Mrs. Gordon, three times for Mrs. Brown. (If we didnt get Mrs. Brown at least we got steam.)
Harold Upstairs (as distinguished from Harold Downstairs) and I developed our own code: One bang on the pipes for A," two for B. The night I got four bangs Papa said, Tell Harold Upstairs to watch his language.
We got our quota of complaints from the neighbors. My daughter got a phone call from a feller last Sunday night, and you werent home. You want she should become an old maid? Mr, Hessel, on the other hand, had a fight with the operatorinsulted herand the last thing we heard him saying was, What do I care? Pull out the rotten telephone. Papa had to apologize first to the operator, then to Mr. Hessel.
One evening Papa got a message for first-floor back to the effect that that ladys daughter had just given birth to a boy. This was cause for a general celebration in the building. The news zigzagged back and forth through the building like a streak of lightning from first-floor back to second-floor front to third-floor back to fourth-floor front to fifth-floor back and then down again, touching every apartment it had missed on the way up. And the neighbors all came to our kitchen to hear Papa make the announcement again. Mama tookput the cake and the wine, and there was much Blessed Be God and kissing and crying and congratulations. It cost Papa about $30 before we found out it had been a wrong number.
Since Papa was so busy taking care of the neighbors, we left our own personal messages to Mama;
"Ma, were there any calls for me today?
Yes. There was a call for you.
"Who called, Ma?
"1 wrote it down on a piece of paper so 1 wouldnt get it wrong. Last time I made a mistake. Its spelled T-r-c-p-l-m with an S
Trcplm-s? What kind of crazy name is that?
Don't blame me, I dont pick your friends. Maybe it was Eddie.
Eddie? Ma. 1 dont know no Eddie. So why does he call you if you don't know him?
Think hard. Mama, please. It may be important. Maybe it was Teddy? Teddy? Teddy isnt a girls name. 0h, it was a girl? Then it must be Betty. ^
'Thats right, Mildred.
My brother Mike called home late one night:
Hello, Mama? This is Mike.
"Mike? Mike isnt home. And she hung up.
He called back. Mama, this is Mike. Listen carefully.
Mike isnt home! And she hung up. He called again. Ma, please listen. Dont hang up. 1 dont want you to worry. Im stuck in the office. I have to work overtime, and I dont know what time Ill get home tonight. 1 dont want you to worry.
All right. Ill tell him when he comes home. And she hung up.US

Dear Friend:

Ive just been through a tidy spell,
I tell you its a verity.
I've sorted out the things to keep,

I've sorted out my ties and belts.
I've sorted out my shirts.
Ive sorted out my coats and slacks To part with some it hurts.
Ive sorted out my shoes and socks.
I've sorted out my shorts.
I've sorted out so much, in fact.
That now I'm out of sorts.

IN JUST MINUTES A DAY
By Rene Bouchard
Beauty Consultant to Maison Cher
If you do nothing else today, please read these few paragraphs. They are vitally important if you have problem skin.
Recently in Paris, I saw demonstrated a simple home treatment that really wiped away blackheads, healed blemishes, tightened pores and made skin softer, smoother and younger looking. Results were almost breathtaking. In fact, I saw these dramatic improvements after just one treatment. With teenagers I saw pimples and blemishes virtually dry up and disappear immediately and with older women I saw complexions firm u|J and beautify with a smoother, tighter, more youthful, almost baby-like look.
AMAZINGLY SIMPLE-YOU DO IT YOURSELF
MAGIC STEP NUMBER ONE
After removing aji makeup thoroughly, you start the treatment by rinsing your face thoroughly with warm water. Then you apply a special formula drawing lotion to the affected areas, now you simply relax. Within minutes, you can actually feel the blackheads, skin impurities and pimples powerfully drawn to the surface by the gentle emollient action. You then gently massage with fingertips for ust 10 seconds to literally wipe away the loosened grime and impurities and you are ready for...
THE SECOND MAGIC STEP
Now you apply the amazing new Protein Menthol Masque with your fingertips and leave on just 10 to 15 minutes. You will actually feel the masque close the pores and tighten the skin. Now the "magic ingredients go to work eliminating redness, reducing swelling of blemishes and leaving skin soft, moist and radiant. The secret of this special masque is that it contains no harsh alcohols or irritants but that it does contain

protein that nourishes the skin and special anti-bacterial and antiseptic ingredients to promote purification and healing. There, thats all there is to it! Believe it or not, youre finished as you simply rinse the masque off with warm water.

Skin will be more beautiful even after just one treatment. And with 3 or 4 treatments a week, you will see a really remarkable complexion improvement. After that, a single maintenance treatment weekly is probably all your skin will ever need to keep it clear of blemishes and glowing with a healthy and younger look.
StepT
You apply special drawing lotion with cotton pads. After a few minutes, massage gently.
You apply new Protein Menthol Masque. Leave on IS minutes and rinse with warm water.

JOBMANSHIP
How to Avoid the 'Gyp frade Schools
If you are bored with your job or hungry for better-paying work, you have probably thought that a good paying trade might be the answer. Your next step is to find a reliable trade school. In a unique and helpful book. If Not College What? The Guide To Career Education (Quadrangle Books, $8.95 hardcover; $3.95 paperback). Muriel Lederer has collected and clearly explained all you could need to know about 2(X) trades and skills: how to learn them, what the work opportunities and salaries are, what kind of person is most likely to enjoy that work. During her research, she discovered the signs of gyp trade schools that take your money but do not fulfill their promises.
Watch out, for instance, if the salesperson offers a substantial discount on tuition in exchange for immediate cash payment, or if he insists you make up your mind immediately because there are only a few openings left. Be suspicious of a school that makes extravagant claims for placement, yet seems reluctant to release the names of graduates you can talk to for recommendations. If the school discourages your attempt to visit it beforehand, ask why. Be on your guard if the school promises a fabulous career in a glamorous industry after only a few weeks training, or if a private correspondence course promises diplomas usually granted only by colleges. Sure, youll have the diploma, but who will take it seriously?
Also, when you read the words registered, approved or accredited about a school, realize the words by themselves mean nothing. The question is: approved, accredited and registered by which agency or group? Finally, does the school have a fair refund policy clearly stated in writing in its bulletin? Without one, you may find you are legally obligated to pay the entire tuition fee, even if you drop the course soon after it begins. Your local Better Business Bureau or Chamber of Commerce can tell you whether any complaints have been registered against the school. And always ask potential employers in your field if they would hire someone who took that schools course.
Two free directories of reliable schools are available upon request; Directory of Accredited Private Trade and Technical Schools, National Association of Trade and Technical Schools, 2021 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20C)09; Directory of Accredited Private Home Study Schools, National Home Study Council, 1601 18th Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20009.

Especially for you holiday overeaters:
As part of the experiment to determine the value to the human heart of prolonged exercise, pigs are jogging five miles a day at the University of California. No, not on the school track the black, hairless porkers are running on treadmills. The pig may not be the most glorious animal, but its heart structure is the most similar to a humans, explained Dr. Max Sanders, an exercise physiologist at the university. In order to assess continuing changes in their condition, half of the pigs eat and jog, while the others just sit around all day, like most people do, Sanders said. The joggers are divided into two groups: one healthy and the other with induced heart damage. The results of the study will be released this spring. Sanders worked previously with dogs but found they are less useful because their capacity for exercise is far superior to that of humans. You can take the average dog on the street, put him on a treadmill, and he can run for two hours straight at a good rate, Sanders said, Thats far longer than any overfed, sedentary humanor pig could do. When we started working with the pigs, they, could only run a couple of minutes at a time. After training, however, the best-conditioned of the healthy pigs is now running his mile in a neat eight minutes.
THE CARDBOARD LEAGUE What can you say about a .176 hitter?
Baseball players can be very touchy
about their photos, and the Topps Baseball Card photographers try to depict them at their best, though as Sports Card Director Sy Berger says, You cant make a silk purse out of a sows ear. As for player statistics, unfortunately, those too just cant be changed. You dont know the agony of trying to think up something nice to say about some guy who hit .176 last year and made 25 "errors, Berger' laments. What can you sayThis guy stinks? Everything is done as fairly as possible, and most of the players wouldnt expect preferential treatment, anyway. Just being on a baseball card is enough, and some would appear there for love alone. Its like the actor or movie star who makes it to the top and gets his name up in lights on a theater marquee, Berger says. When a player reaches the majors and gets his picture on a baseball'card, he feels he has made it. Ive had many of them tell me it was one of their biggest thrills.

Electrocution on the banquet circuit?
Ted Bernstein, an electrical engineering professor, doubles as an after-dinner and banquet speaker for legionnaires and the P.T.A., among others. His topic: the electric chair, its origin, history and use. There were a number of botched hangings in New York in the 1880s, and people began to look for something better, the University of Wisconsin professor relates. They thought of shooting, the garrote, the guillotine and other things, but they were all too messy. They thought of lethal injections, but no doctor would do it. Then, with the rise in the use of electricity, people were being accidentally electrocuted, and it seemed quick and easy. There was a big political thing between Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse over how legal electrocutions should be done, says Bernstein. Edison was against capital punishrrient but said if it were done it should be done with Westinghouses alternating current (AC) because it was more dangerous. There was no word for electrocution at the time, and Edison wanted the process to be called Westinghousing, Bernstein reports. He credits a Buffalo dentist. A, P. Old Spark Southwick, with spreading the word of the electric chair and calls him
the father of legal execution. In all, Bernstein says, 4,310 persons have been put to death in the electric chair. He says many people are fascinated by it, but he still has no answer for those who ask whether it really hurts or not. Theres no way to know.
ROCKS FIND ETERNAL REST A different kind of pet cemetery When your pet rock is stone dead,
one option for the disposition of the remains is to send it to Jackie Hoppers pet-rock\cemetery in Detroit. Its a small graveyard, decked with plastic grass and plots marked by white concrete blocks and growing in popularity. Ms. Hopper started her cemetery in a parking lot across from her tavern after seeing ads for food to keep pet rocks alive. So she decided to provide
a free service for their afterlife. Already 23 plots are filled, some with tombstone epitaphs: George went through too many windows. An alternative to the pet-rock cemetery is the developing field of rock cryogenics, a procedure now possible at home: Wrap the deceased rock in aluminum foil and keep it in the freezer until science discovers a way to revive it.
Great theater In your home state: If you
want to see great plays, you dont necessarily have to give your regards to Broadway. In fact, if you want to get an idea of what plays will be coming to New York this season as well as in future seasons, you ought to take a look at the schedules in your own home town. From The Actors Theater in Louisville to The Arizona Civic Theater in Tucson to the Seattle Repertory Theater in Washington, theater activity is exploding all over the country. Its all thanks to the League of Resident Theaters (LORT), a national organization of nonprofit professional theater groups, whose aim is to provide a permanent, creative environment for the artistic performance of plays on a continuing basis. And more and more peopleproducers, playwrights, actors, agents, audiences^are focusing their attention on regional theater. In fact, some of our most famous playwrights are turning to these theaters first: Tennessee Williams spent last season at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, while this season Arthur Miller has promised his latest play to the Long Wharf Theater in New Haven, Conn., and Edward Albee will be nearby with two new one-act plays at the Hartford Stage Company. So make it a New Years resolution to find enough time to check out the theater nearest you.

Our Sioru*. prince arn and sir
DINADAN BE6IN THEIR JOURNEV TO THE CONVENTION OF TROUBADOURS FROM THE COAST OF BRITTANY WHERE WINTER STILL LINGERS.
QUITE OFTEN THEY PREFER TO SLEEP IN THE CATTLE BARNS RATHER THAN THE CROWDED ONE-ROOM FARMHOUSES,
DINACAN'S RICH ATTIRE, PESISNED TO SUIT HIS VANITY RATHER THAN THIS ROUGH WEATHER, BEGINS TO FALL -APART.
AT LAST A TOWN APPEARS. "DM/ fOfi A HOT BATH;' CRIES ARN, 'W CHAIN HlA/L IS RUSTY AND SQUEAKS LUCE A MOUSE!* HEAP ME TO A CLOTHIER, SAYS DINAWVN, ^BEFORE I AM COVERED BY NOTHING BUT A BLUSH. "
THEY FIND AN ARMORER AND HAVE THEIR MAIL SHIRTS POLISHED IN A BARREL OF FINE SAND, RUST REMOVED FROM THEIR SHIELDS AND HELMETS. THEN, WHEN SIR DINADAN IS PROPERLY ATTIRED, THEY VISIT THE CASTLE.
their host IS A LONELY MAN. NO NEIGHBORS TO FIGHT WITH. FEW TRAVELERS COME THIS WAY. HE BEGS HIS GUESTS TO STAY UNTIL THEY HAVE TOLD HIM THE HAPPENINGS OF THE OUTSIDE WORLD.
AS THEY LEAVE, THE OLD TROUBADOUR GIVES THEM A SLIP OF PARCHMENT, "kvwav YOU GET TO THE MINSTREL CONVENTION CAST MY VOTE FOR lazare AS N/NG OF MINSTRELS. HE WILL MANE ALL MINSTRELS R/CH."
