More Aid For Zaire Defenders
BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP)
French officers are helping the Zaire army reorganize its battered troops to face invading exiles and their supporters in southern Zaires Shaba Province, the ' newspaper La Libre Belgique said today.
In another development, Zaire Information Minister Mbunze Nsomi Lebwanabi said in a telephone interview with a Paris radio station that Egypt was sending men to aid the governments fight in Shaba Province. But he left unclear whether the Egyptians were advisers or tnx^.
Lebwanabi made no reference to the French officers in Shaba.
One must clearly distinguish between aid with men, as Morocco and Egypt are doing, and aid in materiel, even indirectly, like that of France which has put its aircraft at the disposition of Morocco, he said. Morocco has sent 1,500 elite troops to Shaba (exKatanga) Province with another 1,500 on alert in Morocco as possible reinforcements.
La Libre Belgiques correspondent in Kolwezi, the center of the Shaba copper mining industry, reported about 20 French officers arrived there last Thursday wearing impeccable uniforms with all their insignia, blatantly to avoid mercenary untidiness and possible confusion.
The newspaper said the French set about to help President Mobutu Sese * Sekos army officers reorganize their somewhat shaken troops.
French officials said on Monday that French military instructors . were in Zaire training Mobutus men in the use and maintenance of military equipment the French sold Zaire under previous agreements. But the sources said they were there before the invasion on March 8 and were not sent to support the Zaire army.
The French government announced Sunday that it was furnishing 11 cargo planes to move supplies for 1,500 Moroccan troops King
Hassan II has sent to aid Mobutu.
Kolwezi is believed to be the next target of the Katangan exiles who crossed into their native province in southeast Zaire from nei^-boring Angola and have captured about a third of it. Their lines are reported to have stabilized some 30 to 50 miles away, and no fitting has been reported for more than a week.
The arrival Thursday of some 20 French officers, paras and marines under the orders of Col. Francesci, a tall, lean and brisk Corsican, has already restored the serenity of the atmosphere in Kolwezi, the Belgian corre^ndent reported.
He said Moroccan tnx^s began arriving Saturday and were warmly welcomed.
President Jaafar el Numairi of Sudan said Monday he is prepared to give Mobutu any help he needs to defeat the rebels. The Sudanese leaderj^ who put down a rebellion in the southern part of his country after a long and bloody civU war, did not say what aid he would supply and whether it would include troops.
The U.S. government, which replied to Mobutus appeal for help with medical and military supplies but no weapons, gave its tacit approval to the French logistics aid. State Department spokesman Hodding Carter said the Zaire government had a right under international law to ask for outside assistance. But the ultimate solution of the problems of Africa are for Africans to decide, he added.
The invasion is led by members of the late Moise TshombeS' Katanga policearmy with which he tried to win the ind^ndence of Shaba in the early 1960s when it was Katanga province and Zaire was the Congo.
Mobutu contends the invaders are armed by the Soviet Union, supported by Angolas Marxist government and led by some of the Cubans who helped the Marxists win the Angolan civil war last year.

OIL FINALLY SENT
I ordered a case of Mobil l motor oU for my boat while I was in the Winter Park-Orlando, Fla. area. I have my canceled check for $98.60, but have never received the oil and dont know how to contact the fellow I bought it from. F. E.
Hotline tried Winter Park first. Finding no Thompson Service Station listed, we contacted the Mobil Oil Distributor who told us nothing. We then enlisted the help of the Winter Park Chamber of Commerce, who also could not find the business.
Later you found a Holiday Inn booklet and were able to determine that the service station is in Orlando, rather than Winter Park. We then got the phone number from Directory Assistance. VWien we called, the woman answering knew your situation ri^t away. She said the owner had not been able to determine the address to which to send the oil; hence he had waited for you to contact him. We asked that he send a refund or the oil right away. He said hed send the oil by U! P. S., but it took two more calls and a letter to the Consumer Protection Division of the Orlando Chamber of Commerce before he did. You report you now have your oil, though, and are happy.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -Nearly two weeks ago, David Lynn Jackson closed his eyes to shut out the terror. When he opened them 18 hours later he had reason to rejoice.
Jackson, 19, lost both arms in a desperate attempt to save a fellow miner as a sheet of steel plummeted 1,000 feet in a mine shaft toward them.
He was rushed to Jewish Hospital here where a team of surgeons successfully reimplanted his arms in a delicate 12-hour operation April 1. Doctors say Jackson should regain 60 per cent use of his right arm and to 40 per cent use of his left.
Jackson, of Bloomington Springs, Tenn., said at a news conference Monday that he and a fellow worker, Jerry Lee Duncan, 25, were working in a zinc mine at Gordonsville, Tam., when a sheet of metal being lowered into the ^aft broke lo(e. Duncan was directly below.
It sounded like a hammer, he said. It fell about 1,000 feet and it was hitting the sides of the shaft.
He said he ran toward Duncan and bumped him hard enough to get the bulk of his body out of the way. But the plate severed Duncans right arm, mangling it severely enough to prevent reimplantation.
The next thing I knew my face was against the steel and I was hurting real bad, Jackson said. I tried to push myself up with my left hand and I couldnt. I figured Id try to use my right, but I looked over and I saw my right arm wasnt there.
MORE MEASLES
ATLANTA (AP) - Reported cases of measles jumped 62 percent in 1976 and continued at the same rate through the first 12 weeks of 1977, says the national Center for Disease Control.
Then I heard everyone hollering that my arms had fallen to the bottom.
I remember them putting my arms in a bucket and I closed my eyes cause I didnt want to see them, he said.
After the operation he awoke to find his arms were back in place.
I was happy when I saw that, he said. Im just thankful theres a place like this.

Allegations Of Pocketing CiA Funds Studied
By EVANS WITT Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Senate intelligence committee and the Central Intelligence Agency are looking into allegations by a former CIA officer that CIA field officers fattened their own pocketbooks from agenqy funds
John R. Stockwell, a 12-year CIA veteran, also charged that the agency deceived Congress and that most CIA operations in Vietnam were fabrications.
Stockwell pleaded for reform of the CIA in a resignation letter last week to Adm.
Stansfield Turner, the new CIA director.
The 2,000-word letter was published Sunday in The Washington Post.
Stockwell said he had served in Vietnam and several African posts as well as at CIA headquarters in Langley, Va.
He said that after he became a station chief, a superior told him how to supplement my income by an additional $3,000-$4,000 a year by manipulating representational and q>er-ational funds. This was quite within regulations.
Stockwell said one station chief in Africa collected more than $9,000 from the CIA last year for his own household expenses.
A CIA spokesman said Turner had not received Stockwells letter.
Thoughout his career. Stock-well never brought any of his
issued its statement that the limited nature of the dispute should not be overlooked.
Powell emphasized that the seizure was not related to Carters pledge to hang tough with the Soviet Union after its recent rejection of U.S. arms control proposals.
Youre not dealing with an act of war here, he said. Youre dealing with enforce
ment of a fishing law.
The long-simmering dispute has grown in the past weeks, until President Carter, on an Easter holiday in Georgia this weekend, approved an order to seize the 275-foot Soviet trawler Taras Shevchenko 240 miles southeast of Boston.
In addition, the Coast Guard took custody of a second ship, the Antanas Snechkus, to confiscate its cargo, which the Coast Guard said violated catch limits placed on river herring.
Soviet Ambassador Anatoly F. Dobrynin and President Carter planned to meet late this afternoon. A White House source said Dobrynin was coming to the Oval Office for an update on U.S.-Soviet relations, althou^ he did not know for certain whether the fishing dispute was included.
Christopher complained to Vasev last week that Russian ships committed'27 violations after the 200-mile limit became effective March 1.
Israel's Rabin Ordered To Retain Office 'Til After Elections In May
comments to the attention of the agency, the spokesman said. The agency has begun to look into these matters.
The spokesman would not comment further.
Spencer Davis, a staff member of the Senate intelligence committee, would only say an investigation has begun.
The Senate intelligence committee is looking into Mr. Stockwells allegations, he said.
The Senate committee was set up after recent investigations found CIA involvement in domestic spying, plots to kill foreign leaders and other activities.
Stockwell plans to move to Texas and become a house builder, according to the Post.
Stockwell, 40, said CIA files were clean^ of incriminating documents and that documents were hidden from congressional investigators.
Stockwell said in the letter to Turner that he and other CIA officers are disappointed that you have given no indication of intention or even awareness of the need for the internal house-cleaning that is so conspicuously overdue at the agency.
He said he was writing the letter in the hq>e that it mi^it lead to measures wliich would upgrade the cland^tine service from its present mediocre standard to the elite organization it was once reputed to be.
JERUSALEM (AP) - Israels cabinet met under Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin today, a day after Rabin was fined for keeping an illegal bank account but ordered to stay in office until after the May 17 elections.
Foreign Minister Yigal AUon said Rabin will remain prime minister in every sense until the elections.
Altons remarks indicated Rabin had decided against taking a leave of absence or delegating any of his responsi-bUities.
Rabin said last Thursday he wanted to resign as soon as possible after he and his wife Leah were accused of concealing accounts containing $21,000 in a Washington, D.C., bank in violation of currency regulations.
Rabin was fined $1,500 on Monday. But Mrs. Rabin, who managed the accounts, will have to stand trial.
If convicted, she faces a maximum three-year sentence and a $63,000 fine, but the practice has been to levy only fines in such cases.
The Finance Ministry said Rabin had not actually operated the accounts and thus received a token fine that reflected the fact that he had only
been aware of the accounts.
\
Israeli Atty. Gen. Aharon Barak told the morning cabinet meeting the law did not allow Rabin to resign, since his gov-ernment resigned last December and currently had caretaker status. The law prohibits ministers from resigning from a caretaker cabinet.
Report 3rd Witness Against Wilmington 10 Says He Lied
WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) - A third key prosecution witness now says he lied when he testified against a band of civU rights activists known as the Wilmington 10 in a 1972 firebombing-assault case, a defense attorney said today.
Charlotte attorney James E. Ferguson said moments before a bail hearing for the 10 imprisoned defendants that he will read to the court a statement from Eric Junious, who was 13 when he testified for the prosecution.
Ferguson said Junious recanted his testimony in a statement to him and a defense team investigator.
He says he gave them (prosecutors) answers he knew they wanted because he could tell by their questions what they wanted to hear, said Ferguson.
However,Ferguson explained, Junious did not say he was coached by prosecutors, as did two other prosecution witnesses Allen R. Hall, 23, and Jerome Mitchell, 22.
The Rev. Ben Chavis, head of the Commission for Racial Justice of the United Churdi of Christ, and nine others were convicted oi charges of arson and assault on officers in coi-nectkm with the firebombing of Mikes Grocery in WUmington during a period of racial turmoil in 1971, and given long prison sentences.
Ferguson said the hearing todays in New Hanover County Superior Court was to petition for bond for the 10 pending a post-
conviction hearing in nearby Pender County Superior Court on May 9.
A federal judge, meanwhile, has ordered the U.S. Department of Justice to release information gathered by a federal grand jury in Raleigh last month earlier this year to both defense and prosecuting attorneys.
The order came from U.S. District Court Judge John Larkins Jr.
Ferguson said h had not received those transcripts yet, but expected to have them early enough to prepare for the May 9 post conviction hearing.
TTie state attorney generals office was set to argue against the bail motion, and has expressed the intent to fight the new trial motion on May 9.
Ferguson has contended that the 10 defendants were convicted on perjured testimony.
Hall and Mitchell, who both served time in connection with the firdximbing incidents in 1971 and have since been sentenced to prison terms <m other charges, have both stated that they lied ifflder oath at the 1972 Pender County trial.
Hall said he was coerced into turning states evidence, while MitcheU said he was lured into testifying by promises of help from prosecutors.

Export Market Given Emphasis
By SUSAN QUINN By Reflector Staff Writer
The excess capacity of U.S. agriculture is important to agricultural exports, Philip L. Mackie, Deputy Assistant of the Administration of the Foreign Agriculture Service, USDA, told the Pitt County Agribusiness Association Tuesday morning.
Mackie presented information to the Agribusiness members which showed that exports of grain products were high last year and the percentage of exports amounted to one fourth to one half of the crops total production.
The information also showed that U.S. agricultural exports will total about $23 billion in fiscal year 1977; over $20 billion for the fourth consecutive year. The balance of trade on agricultural products will be near $10 billion, positive, in fiscal year 1977; also for the fourth consecutive year.
According to Mackie, as an agricultural export, tobacco is not a major export and compared to other imports is not a major import.
Last year we exported M0,000 metric tons of tobacco as compared to the 55 million tons of coal we exported.
Mackie explained that the Foreign Agriculture Service

DEAR ABBY: I am a 20-year-old theology student who will one day be a minister.
After going with a very lovely girl for a year, I asked her to marry me. She is 18. She told me to ask her father.
In my conversation with the father, he asked me if I was a virgin and I told him I waswhich is true. I was surprised that he would ask me such a question because he is of the same religious denomination as me, and he knows that sex before marriage is forbidden.
Well, he surprised me by saying, I hope you will get a little experience before you marry my daughter because I dont want her going off on a hone}Tnoon with a fellow who doesnt know anything.
Abby, is there all that much to know? I always thought the mating instinct was natural, and theres no harm in learning together. What is your opinion?
PROVO, UTAH
DEAR PROVO; Do ducks have to be taught to fly? And fish to swim?
Love will find a way. Stay sweet as you are.
DEAR ABBY: I protest the use of the pronoun he or "him when referring to people in general.
An example from one of your columns; Dont ever tell a child that HE is bad. If HE misbehaves, tell HIM you dont like what HE did; dont tell HIM you dont like HIM.
'The child could be a boy or a girl, right? But by using only the male pronoun, it implies that males are of primary importanceanother blow to the females self-esteem.
After all, how hard is it to write or say, she/he or his/hers or him-her?
FAITHFUL READER
DEAR READER: The rule of granunar you speak of, which is to use the masculine pronoun when it applies to both male and female, was NOT devised to put down women. And it is not likely to be changed in the interest of womens rights.
Writing he/she and him/her IS a time-waster, and I for one would find it extremely burdensome.
DEAR ABBY: Shortly before St. Valentines Day you had a confidential in your coliunn urging each reader to be a sweetheart and take a shut-in out for a drive, invite a single over to relieve his (or her) loneliness or send someone you like a funny card, flowers or a little gift.
Well, Abby, we took your advice and came up with a list of 25. In spite of the price of flowers and cards and entertaining these days, we cant remember receiving so much for so little.
Our telephone rang for days! Some with tears in their voices to thank us for thinking of them.
'That one confidential in the Dear Abby column was worth more than a years subscription to the newspaper that features your column. I hope you will publish that lovely suggestion annually.
E ANDR
DEAR E AND R: You can bet 1 will. And thanks for being the sweethearts you obviously are.

NEW ORLEANS (UPI) -Joan Cruz knows how to get rich writing a novel drop out of college, marry a truck driver, have five children and get insomnia.
Those are some of the things that helped Mrs. Cruz write her first novel, Desires of Thy Heart," a romantic tale of which a major publishing company plans to print 400,000 paperback cqjies in November.
For an unpublished, unknown author to get an initial press run of 400,000 copies is almost unheard of, said Judy Keith, owner of a (Hie-woman publishing company in Pwinsyl-vania which bou^t the book and will bring out the hardback edition next month.
Joan just doesnt realize the phH)menon she is. It sddom ever happens that fiction by a mmpublished author will ever get printed.
Her publisher is right. Mrs. Cruz doesnt consider herself a phH)menon and is embarrassed by those who do.
When I decided to start writing a book I sat down and laughed out loud, she said. But I figured if somebody else can do it, so can I.
Her first effort at serious writing was five years ago, more than 20 years after she worked on her high school newspaper.
I used to have this feeling, this unrest, that there was something else I should be doing besides taking care of the house, she said.
I used to try all sorts of things to find out what it was I was siq)posed to do. I tried all sorts of hobbies and what not. Thats how I tried writing. I
said, maybe its writing. Ill try writing.
It was writing. Now Mrs. Cruz spends hours between midnight and dawn with a pencil scribbling chapters to her second novel in the leftover pages of her childrens notebooks.
I used to wake up during the night and read. I wouldnt say it was insonmia, I just woke up. After a while, I said: Well, why read if I can write?
Mrs. Cruz spent more than a year researching and writing her first book, The Incorruptibles, a nonfiction look at the remains and shrines of 100 Roman Catholic saints.
It hasnt been published yet, she said. The publishers accepted it two years ago, but theyre just now getting around to printing it.
That first book is what led .the (piiet brunette to write her novel, which brought an advance check in the high five figures.
My brother knew what I was doing and he challenged me to write a fiction book. He said I couldnt write fiction, said Mrs. Cruz. I cant stand a challenge so I had to do something about it .
She did something about it and Desires of Thy Heart is dedicated to her brother, Daniel J. Carroll Jr., a wholesale carpet salesman in New Orleans.
He was very happy about it, but my husband was the one who couldnt believe it, Mrs Cruz said of the sale of her novel. My husband honestly didnt believe it until he saw (a brief story about it in a New York column).
Her husband should have

believed it first. He ws beside her when she wrote most of the book.
I write in bed sometimes with just a lamp on and my husband asleep, said Mrs. Cruz. It takes discipline because there are many nights when Im awake and dont feel like writing.
I have to force myself to write and sometimes I spend an
the wax paper. Spread some of the frosting over the layer; add the t< layer, bottom side down, and spread with the remaining frosting; let set. Pull out the strips of wax paper and the plate should be shiningly clean. The strips of paper are used rather than one whole sheet because they can be pulled out so easily.
About cake layers sliding. After the first layer has been frosted and the next layer added, insert toothpicks or cake-testers through the on two opposite sides to act as anchors; let set. Now frost the sides of the cake, then remove the anchors and frost the top.
Another tip. The best cooks in the world sometimes cover up! When the frosting doesnt look quite as attractive as it might, crinkle it with chopped pecans; chopped toasted walnuts; slivered toasted blanched almonds or chopped roasted unblanched almonds; or flaked coconut. Chocolate crinkles may be used when they complement the flavor of the cake. - C.B.

Everyone at card club the other night was discussing the newest technique of child-rearing called Parent Effectiveness Training.
What this amounts to is active listening, which psychiatrists have been doing for years. You just sit there and look wise (play with a letter opener if you wish) and let the kid do all the talking.
If he says, I threw up today, you just remain expressionless and say, Do you like throwing up, Gordwi?
Not much.
Youre saying you prefer something else?
I guess so.
Youre not sure?
Im sure.
"Then, youre quite certain about that.
Sorta.
Youve just expressed doubt
Bombeck

I DONT LIKE THROWING UP!
There is no need to be hostile. No one is going to make you throw up.
This cwiversation is dumb. Is that what you think, Gordon?
Im going to be sick again. You see, Mother smiles, thats what you wanted all along.
I told the group my husband was ahead of his time. Hes been using that technique on me for years, wily he calls it DHN -Drive Her Nuts.
I was climbing into bed the other ni^t when I said, You did dqiosit your check in the bank today, didnt you?
Is that something you want to discuss now?
No, I could wait until tomorrow at the bank, but there will be so many people around ' lawyers, law enforcement officers, the president of the bank. Dont be patronizing! I wrote a check today for the draperies
because we dont have a charge ofBUlkos.
Would you like to have a charge at Billkos?.
Thats not important. The draperies were on sale and I was lucky to find a triple pair 80 inches long, so I wrote them a check. I didnt have a choice. You are saying you feel threatened by this action.
I am saying unless you deposited that check today I wont need the draperies because where Im going I wont have a window. Besides, Im going to be sick!
You see, he smiled, turning off the light, thats what you wanted all along.
hour on one paragraph. Some--times I just give up. But (en sometimes after an hour Its like a second wind and all of a sudden Im writing and writing and writing.
Mrs. Cruz, an attractive woman who looks more than a decade younger than her 45 years, said she is ofti still scribbling longhand at dawn when her children get ready for school.
It catches ifl) with me, she I said. After about the third I night I have to go to sleep early the next night. But I work it
I in.
j The long hours and lack of I writing experience, however, j did little to hurt the quality of I Mrs. Cruz work.
' All I had to do was write two extra paragraphs at the end of one of the chapters. That was it, she said. I always heard that you get it back and you rewrite. I didnt have any of that.
The 346-page novel deals with an English earl in the 9th Century who takes a vow of celibacy but then is forced into marrying a Viking woman to keep peace in his region.

Student Minimal Competency Test Raises Queries
By LOUISE COOK AsMciated PrcM Writer
Alarmed by reports of high school graduates who cannot read well enough to fill out a Job application, educators and lawmakers are trying to make sure that youngsters learn basic skills before they leave the classroom.
State legislatures and boards of education are setting up testing programs requiring students to meet what are known as minimum competency standards before they receive a hi^ school dipl<Hna or are promoted from grade-to-grade.
They are testing students beginning in the eighth and ninth grade and setting up remedial programs for those youngsters who fail.
Dr. Chris Plpho, associate director of the Department of Research and Information of the Education Commission of the States in Denver said that by the end of 1976, 16 states had tak) some action in the area of minimum competency standards and action is pending in more than half a dozen other states.
'The push for minimal competency testing may be a reflection of the general mood of the country, says Pipho. For some time, separate groups have been concerned about the need for more basic education, declining test scores and more accountability for the education ddlar.
Dr. Richard M. Bossone, professor of En^ish at the graduate school of the City University of New York, said the public is showing a growing dissatisfaction with hi^ school graduates who are unable to read w write well.
Bossone spoke at a conference on minimum com
petencies, sponsored by the New York City Board of
Education and the City Universitys Graduate Cmter. Like Pipho, he noted thit there are several problems with the new testing programs.
First and foremost is the
problem of (tetermining what constitutes minimum com
petency. Does it mean being able to read at a certain grade levd? Or does it mean being able to understand the instruction bookie that comes with a new applicance? Should writing tests stress grammar, ^>eUing and punctuation or should they be nwre concerned with determining whether the student can express himself clearly? What areas should be tested?
Other problems include: Who should set the standards? When should the tests be given? How do you insure that the tests do not discriminate against minority groups? What sort of remedial programs should be set up and where will the money come from? How do you insure that the minimum doesnt also become the maximum?
These problems have led some educators to criticize the minimum cwnpetency concept. Arthur Wise, of the Educational Pdicy Research Group, said that passage of taws setting minimum standards cm a statewide basis is a rather sim-l^istic solutton to what is a serious problem ... Im certainly in favor of children learning how to read. The reat question is whether you can legislate that...
Wise said that teachers and principals already know which students cannot read or perform simple arithmetical tasks. The problem is that we dont have effective ways of reaching these young people ...
In recent years, he noted, educators have faced the problem of udiat to do with the diild who has not learned to read. Do you attach a stigma of failure to the youngster or do you give him a social promotion, advancing him to the next grade level even though he has not mastered the required work? What about the student who is given remedial training but is still unable to pass the minimum competency test?
I dont have an answer, Wise said. Its a question of ^ values. The kind of stigma that would attach to some children as a result of these minimum conq)etency laws may be ... a heavier burden than getting out of high sdKXri without being able to read.
SuppcHters of the minimum competency idea concede that they dont have solutions to all the proUans. Educators are st
ill working to develop acceptable tests.
The issue of minimal competency ultimately becomes a testing and measurement problem for which no one has all the answers, said H. A. Wilson, director of exercise development for the National Assessment of Educational Progress. (NAEP Is funded by the federal government and is a project of the Education Commission of the States.)
Wilson suggested the educators and testing experts meeting in Denver last summer that state and local school districts start by using an item-bank approach with a large pool of test Items. The Items could be used to establish a body of materials from which state and local districts could sample or select items that
Charge Pair On 2 Counts
Two Plymouth teenagers, who were arrested by Greenville P(dice on marijuana possession charges before dawn yesterday, were later charged with attempted breaking and entering of a coin operated machine and with possession of burglary tools, according to Chief Glenn Cannon.
The chief identified the two as 16-year-old Matthew Love Roberts and 17-year-old Walter A. Webb.
According to Cannon, Roberts and Webb were charged with possession of marijuana after officers stopped a car in udiich the two were riding about 4 a.m. at the intersection of Tenth and Cotanche Streets and found a small quantity of marijuana in their possession.
Cannon said the pair were charged with attempted breaking and entering and with possession of bursary tools about 11:30 a.m. following investigation of a 2:30 a.m. incident at Westgate Phillips 66 sta-tion at 1531 Greenville Boulevard, where the pair allegedly attempted to force open a coin operated drink machine.
Pitt Scientist In Referral Book
Dr. James R. Overton, a Winterville native, 'is among nearly 70 leading scientists listed as authors of a massive reference work on chemistry. An employe of Eastman Kodak Company, he helped write Physical Methods of Chemistry, recently published in a fourth edition.

meet their particular needs at a given time.
Professional testing services already have developed proposed exams. One such test includes sections designed to find out whether the student can follow written directions.
can understand such items as classified ads and can use road maps or grocery store tapes to get the information he or she needs.
Most school districts are trying to learn as they go in the area of minimum competency. It is too early to measure the impact of existing programs, but a look at the diversity of some of the proposals under development provides clues about the directions the states are taking. ,
Two states, California and Florida, combined minimum competency testing with the early out concept whereby a student who passes thq test can leave school with a diploma before the usual legal age.
About 20,000 to 30,000 students in California have taken the minimum competency test, Pipho said, but no studies have been completed (m the impact of the law and how it is working. Implementation of the law in Florida was delayed when legislators discovered there was no standard, readily available minimum competency test.
The early out approach appears to be in the minority, Pipho said, adding that there are questions about the impact of the program on college enrollment and about what happens to the student who leaves school at 15 or 16 and cannot find a job.
The City of Denver has been giving minimum competency tests since 1962. Two years ago, the Colorado Legislature passed a law requiring any school district which decides to give such
a test to meet certain standards; the test must first be given in the ninth grade; tests must be given twice a year; remedial classes must be provided during the regular school day for all students who do not pass the test.
New York State will begin a minimum competency testing program in 1979. Gordon Am-bach, executive deputy commissioner of the state Education Department, said tests will be given in live areas; reading, writing or composition, mathematics, practical sciences and health and civics and citizenship.
The department decided that the exam would be compulsory and that no student would receive a hi^ school diploma without passing the test, Am-bach said. The test, which will be given starting at the ninth-grade level, must be completed in English.
Some educators argue that testing in the ninth grade is too late. The State of Washington, in legislation passed last year, requires that local sclool districts develop learning objectives starting with the kind-gergarten year and that students be tested at least annually-
The Virginia Legislature ordered school districts last year to give highest instructional priority to developing the reading, communications and mathematics skills of all students with particular attention to the primary grades and the intermediate grades.
The law also directs the state board of education to establish minimum educational standards on a statewide basis and to test students annually for reading and communications
ability.
Pipho says the minimum competency tests could lead to a major overhaul of the
educational system within the decade, with changes in what is tau^t and how. Educators are still debating the form that the
changes should take and what areas should be stressed. But Pipho notes: The man on the street has no doubt as to the
meaning of minimum competency. Minimum competency means reading, writing and arithmetic.

Stabbed Inmate Being Treated
YANCEYVttLE, N.C. (AP) An inmate at the Blanch Institute underwent surgery Monday ni^t at Duke Medical Center for a stab wound in the throat.
Bryant Williams, 30, of Ralei^ was listed in fair condition after being transferred to Duke from Person County Memorial hospital. Prison officials said he had been stabbed about 7 p.m. Monday In a prison dormitory.
Prison officials said they began an investigation of the incident.
Williams was serving a life sentence after being convicted of rape in Wake County Superior Court in connection with an attack on a 13-year-old girl. He had served time on Death Row in the Central Prison in Ralei^ before his sentence was commuted to life.
False Bookkeeping Is Now Easier To Detect
By RANDOLPH E. SCHMID Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - White collar criminals look out: Treasury Department sleuths have developed a new method to detect false bookkeeping. They can tell from the ink whether documents have been backdated.
The program, called ink tagging, was launched in 1973 and is about 70 per cent complete, according to spokesmen for the
SONGWRITER DIES
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -Eddie Miller, co-writer of the country music classic, Release Me and a member of the songwriters Hall of Fame, died Monday. He was 57.
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF).
The department has enlisted-the aid of major ink manufacturers to change their chemical formulations each year.
Each change, officials say, represents a date prior to which that particular ink did not exist.
Six of 16 ink manufacturers are participating in the program and five others are experimenting with it, accord-, ing to ATF.
The ink from suspect
documents can be analyzed by ATF scientists and compared with standard ink samples kept in its library.
Often it is possible to prove a document was backdated if the questioned ink matches a library ink that did not exist when the document was
dated, a spokesman said.
Periiaps the most famous ink tagging case involved former Vice President Spiro Agnew.
Investigators had a diary of someone who said he had paid kickbacks to Agnew. Scientists were able to verify that all the inks used were available at the time of the entries, and that the
sequence showed a random pattern consistent with day-to-day work in a diary.
According to prosecutors in the case, this evidence was crucial to eliciting Agnews no contest plea in 1973 to income tax charges.
In another case, former Cincinnati Police Chief Carl Goodin was convicted of perjury after an ink expert proved that a list of informants was manufactured and backdated.
And in the Juan Corona mass murder trial in California, AFT ink experts proved that Coronas pen was used to prepare the death list in his diary.

Wood Borer In Imported Shoes
SACRAMENTO Calif. (AP) An unwanted emigrant from the Mediterranean area has arrived in California with a pair of wooden shoes. The state Department of Food and Agriculture says it is a first.
The emigrant is a longhomed wood borer that marched out of the big wooden heel of a pair of Greek-made shoes at a shoe store here, a department spokesman said.
The department reported Sunday that its the first such borer ever reported in the United States.
County biologist Phil Siebert said the borer was probably in the tree when it was cut down to make the heel.

Two Good City Projects OK'd
HMMM-NOW WHERE WILL THIS ONE GO?
Two forward looking projects were approved by the City Council last week.
The council accepted low bids for construction of the Arlington Boulevard link and for the Recreation-Library Center.
Barrus Construction Co. bid $396,786 for the Arlington Boulevard segment and was awarded the contract.
The dual lane link will tie in with the present Arlington Boulevard at Evans Street and go to Hooker Road. It will provide a thorou^fare from N. C. 43 south of Pitt Plaza to the Dickinson Avenue and Memorial Drive area an important one in view of the build-up of the medical complex on the west side of the city.
It prompted Mayor Percy Cox to comment, I dont know of anything Ive been more excited about.
It is a good thoroughfare project, indeed.
A low bid of $397,179 for construction of the Recreation-Library complex was approved. J. H. Hudson, Inc. will be the general contractor. The compex will be built in the eastern area of the city in the vicinity of the Jaycee Park, near Eastern Elementary School.
The complex vdll provide additional r^reational facilities, while at the same time providing a permanent home for the eastern branch of the citys library system, which is currently housed in rented facilities on E. Tenth Street.
With the central Sheppard Library on Tenth Street and the Carver library branch on 14th Street in the western area of the city, we should have an adequate library system Both these projects were much needed by our growing city and it is good to see them underway.

Hunt Plays High Stakes
By JAMES J. KILPATRICK
ByBILLNOBUTT (First of Two AiHdes) RALEIGH Gov. James B. Hunt, Jr. has a lot at stake in his legislative fight to win two terms for a governor even for himself.
He is pulling out all the stops; hometown lobbying, appointments to state boards and commissions, state jobs for friends, and talks with lawmakers about special ^)aiding projects back home.
Borrowing a page from successful lobbying groiq>s which now dev(ke more effort to work at the grassroots level than in Raleigh, the governors office is putting pressure on at hMne vdiare it counts the most.
Home Pressure A call to a univosity chancell(H* results in a call to a trustee of that scbod, who calls a pmonal friend in the hometown of a legislator who is wavering on the foice. A quiet chat at the bank, cfaurdi, the local country club is far more successful than a cup of coffee in the State House.

THE INSIDE REPORT
win, says a Hunt aide confidently.
Hes got to win, re^)oods a key legidator who is still wavering himself on the question. If he doesnt, be can just go home and let Jimmy Green have contrd.
Lt. (3ov. James C. Green is out^xAoy against the two-term idea, and ticks off a variety of reasons; it limits numbers of pet^ who can serve, it leaves one man in office long enough to build a powerful pditical machines, it cuts into the balance of power betweoi legislative and exectkive. It also limits , his own chances of becoming governor.
Green of^xised Hunt on the Equal Rights Amoidment earlier this year. That measure met d^eat in the State Senate. Some saw that as a measure of strength between Great and Hunt, but the governor dismissed that; his was a moral stance in favor of ERA; not a com-mitmoit to his own program for N(Hkh (Lankina.
SuccessHxi of the governor particulariy since he has included himself in the pn^tosal cleariy makes this part of the Himt pn^ram
for N(Hlh Carolina, and he has made it clear he believes it is essentia] to progressive, good government for the future.
Green so far is the top state official to come out in opoi (^tposition. But there is op-positi(M) elsewhere.
House Battle The Senate debate and vote this week is seen by most as producing little fireworks, and prompt passage. But action in committees of the
House of Representatives and 00 the floor about mid-April is another story.
Green has vowed not to lobby senators on the measure. He made no such promise regarding represenattives, and he still has considerable influence with some powerful members of the body over which he presided as speaker in the last session of the General Assembly.
State Rep. E. Graham Bell,
D-Gast(Hi, is a leading opponent of succession. He is counting noses now, hunting a flat-out defeat. That failing, he is pushing the idea of an amendment which would keep the measure from applying to Hunt. That would accomplish several things, anHHig them throwing the measure back into the Senate without the strong su{q;>ort of Hunt allies who with the president governor out of the picture would likely change their minds.
It lo(^ like a tossup in the Housetoo close to call.
But the heavy argumoits havent been made yet. Green touched (hi them, and draws a firm line between those who think the governor needs more power, and those wIm) dont agree.
But as in most things political, em(kHMis are bound to sway a lot of minds; if a governor serves eight years, and you are in your late 30s or early 40s, how many more governors will you see in your normal lifetime?
Assuming eadi wins two terms, you will see only four more governors, including Jim Hunt.
Difficulty In Defining
President Carter acted last week to fulfill another of his bad campaign promises; He called for creation of a new Agency for Consumer Advocacy.
By nice coincidence, on the same day that Mr. Carter was asking for this new agency, his budget director Bert Lance was commoiting on the reorganizatkm act.
There are too many agencies in govemmoit, said Mr. Lance. We just
dont need that many. We need to do something about it.
Perhaps the (^xigress in its wisdmn will do something about the problem by rejecting the proposed ACA for if ever an agency were unneeded, this is it. An Agency for Consumer Advocacy will id (me more layer of bureaucracy to the tohlayer cake that Uoats us now. It will create hundreds of jobs for the eager beavers.

WASHINGTON - Talking to the single most influential group of Jewish leaders in the country last week. Ambassador Andrew Young once again stepped far beyond his nrie as U.S. representative to the United Nati(ms and proclaimed inaccurately high administration pdicy for the delicateiy-p(Hsed Mi(L die East.
Young told a meeting of the Conference of Presidents of major American Jewish organizations (held at their Manhattan headcjuarters on Park Avenue) that Mr. Carters use of the politically explosive phrase defensible borders for Israel was intentional, not accidental. In fact, the contrary was true.
By oicouraging American frioids of Israel to believe in an extreme presidential commitment that does not exist, the mistake added an unneeded complication to Mr. Carters Middle East puzzle. Coupled with earlier embarrassment of Jimmy Carter by this same s(Nirce claiming stability in Angola because of Cuban troops and warning of the unreliability of black soldiers in the U.S. Army, the hard question is raised; would Andy Young not be better off sticking to his competently-performed UN duties?
Mr. Carter mentioned defensible bordos March 7 in welcoming Israels Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin to the White House. That produced an angry out-

burst from Arab nations who viewed the new definition of borders as a majtR* change of U.S. policy.
Previously, the U.S. had stuck to the language of UN Resolution 242, which supports secure and recognizednot defensible boundaries for I^-ael. The difference is profound; militarily defensible borders for Israel would have to be deep in Arab taritMles now Qcciqiied by Israd.
But every ranking Middle East expert in the administration has carefully explained that the Presidents substitution of defen-siWe was accidental. Indeed, Secretary of State Cyrus Vance, receiving a delegation of Arab ambassadors after Rabin left Washingt(Mi, ruled out any change in the administrations reading of UN Resolution 242.
Why, then, did Ambassador Young say what he said in his one-hour briefing of the Jewish leaders, r^rted (Mily in the March 31 issue of the authoritative Jewish Telegraph Agency news bulletin? Because, in trying
to quiet jitters in the American Jewish community over Mr. Carters Mideast peace plan, he got lost in the verbal intricacies and told the Jewish leaders exactly what they wanted to hear.
Young explained to us that he had been present at a White House session, attended by the President and national security adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski, before Rabins arrival, in whi(di Brzezinski talked about secure fnmtiers as having the same meaning as defensible borders. Mr. Carters subsequent use of defaisible borders, Young said, was simply an effort to break the old code words and talk sense on Mideast peace.
In fact, Brzezinski never once used the phrase defop sible borders in that briefing of the Presidait attoided by Young. Brzezinski, architect of Mr. Carters imaginative new peace plan, could not conceivably make such an uninformed mistake; he would be aware of its electrizing impact on Israelis and Arabs alike.

Other Editors Say New School Born
(Raleigb News and Obsarvar)
The East Carolina University Medical Sdxxri has received the national accreditatkm it needed. Thus, the way has beoi cleared for the sclKxds first class of 28 students to begin its studies next fall.
It will be a dream realized for many Eastern North Carolinians, who envision the new school as a fountain from which (riiysicians trained in and dedicated to family practice will flow into the smalt towns and villages of the area.
The school has negotiated a 12-year-l(ig, rocky road to get to its real beginning. Not all the state, not all the doct(xs not all the East share the belief that a physician trained in Greenville would necessarily stay in the rural East to practice. Many believe that as much could be accomplished, at less cost than the $50 millkm the ECU school re(]uired, by expanding facilities at the states three, existing medical schools.
But the ECU forces persevered, in battles in the General Assembly and in the meeting rooms of the University of North Carolina Board of Ctovemors, and won their prize. It was a ^mbolic victory for the East, which has so long felt neglected sometimes with ^>od reason.
Even the staunchest ECU supporters will cimcede that there is no way to force a doctor to practice family medicine, nor to practice in a small town. But many who learn medicine at the new school will be native Tar Heels well-motivated to stay and serve their own people. Some, who come from urban areas and other states to learn, will succumb to the charms of the area and to the more personal charms of its young women and young menand will want to stay to make their homes.
As Gov. James B. Hunt Jr. said at the March dedication of the school the new Pitt County Memorial Ho^ital any sq>aratki between supporters and (H>ponents that remains shouldoid.
TTie disagreements and the divisions philosophical and personal that the long ECTJ Medical School debate created have now been put away. The symbol has become fact and it will be advantageous for all the state to work together to turn the Easterners dream into practical reality, and to wi^ the effort weU.
l^al eagles and rabid rabbits who have studied at the feet of Ralph Nader. It wUl add months to the long delays that already stifle the making of final decisions.
And in the end, the Agency for Consumer Advocacy cannot possibly accomplish its ostensible purpose. That purpose is to r^resent the consumer.
Mr. Carter made that purpose clear. His new agency would speak up for the cixjsumer. It would plead consumers case. It would deap with the consumers concerns. CreatiiHi of this agmcy would be only one in a number of steps to better protect the consumer. These steps, said the President, will enhance the cimsumers influence within the government.
But who is the consumer? And who is to determine the consumers interest? Two recent decisions by Mr. Carter himsdf will point up the difficulty in defining the terms.
Last nuMith Mr. Carter ^proved a significant increase in milk price supports. The effect will be to increase the price of milk at the retail level. Was this in the consumers interest? Evidently Mr. Carter thou^t so. In this case, he felt it more important to preserve a stable and profitable dairy industry than to keep the price down on a basic household commodity.
Two weeks ago Mr. Carter refused to approve the tariff rate qjuotas recommended by the International Trade Commission on imported shoes. He acknowledged that in the past nine years, the domestic shoe industry has lost 70,000 jobs. These 70,000 di^laced workers siffely are consumers. But in this case, he felt it more important to promote world trade than to fix quotas that

WASHINGTON (AP) - The next time your favorite (diarity asks you for a donation, it may have to tell you more about where the money goes.
Following a religious fundraising scandal, state regulations over charities are increasing and Congress is considering legislation requiring them to say how much money goes for expoises.
Many charities, seeking to preserve their gooid names, are voluntarily going beyond any disclosure requirements. One sajrs that increased candor has led to increased contributions.
nie Save the Oiildren Foundation is now saying in its solicitations that 78.1 per cent of donations go to needy children with the rest spent on overhead costs.
Our new promotional materia] which includes the financial disclosure is generating contributions at a rate 2^h times the result of our historic promotional material, Kenneth H. Phillips, director of development, told a recent congressional hearing.
Among other major organizations that are making disclosures at the time of solicitation are the American Heart Association and the National Kidney Foundation.

April 12,1937 The Supreme Court gave the government a major vic-toiy today by upholding coa-stitutionality of the Wagner Labor Relations Act as applied to all businesses engaged in interstate commerce.
Speculation was stirred immediately as to whether the tribunals decisions in five cases would affect President Roosevelts fight for reorganization of the body.
William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, had described the Wagner Act as the Magna Carta of labor.
It guarantees collective bargaining to workmen in negotiating with employers on wages, hours and (Xher labor conditions.
Winterville is making plans for a series of big events on Tuesday, May 4, when the new A. G. Cox school building will be dedicated and a homecoming program will be carried out by students and teachers of the old Baptist High School.
The two i^iecial functions will be held jointly with the commencenj^nt exercises and the town is making arrangements to take care of one of the largest crowds in its history.
It is the announced purpose of sponsors to make the event one of the biggest ever in the town. Special efforts are being made to have a large number of Baptist High graduates on hand.

WE ARE NOT FORSAKEN
An agiKKtic, who Ixrids forth on religious matters at great loigth, made the public statemoit some time ago that a (xod who has the planets and the rest of the universe in his charge would certainly not have time to think about so insignificant a creature as man.
A concqition such as this arises from a false ctm-ceptkm of God. The agnostic uses the tdescope but forgets to use the microscope. He sees (Jod operating in the heavens but forgets that God
<^>erates with e(]ual care and precision in the most minute things of life. The same being who manifests himself in the heavens also manifests himself in the atom. The God who interests himself in the stars is not too big to be interested in mankind.
We are told that we are made in the image and likeness of God. If be took the trouble to create us, we can be sure that he daily takes the trouUe to see that our lives are ordered after his original design.

NEW YORK (AP) - Since corporate management usually designs annual reports to shine li0it on its successes, page 15 of the Ford Motor Company rqiort is probaUy unique.
There in the spotli^t, under a heading Not Everything Went Ri^t, is a list of managements less notable achievemoits, such as 1.3 million recalls in 1976, and a failure to recognize the demand f(H'big cars.
Tbe rare admissions are couched in positive terms management has an acute awareness of the need to be ccMistructive, creative and effective in dealing with problems of ail sorts but they are admissions nonetheless.
Those 1.3 million recalled vehicles add iq) to the United States total only. Twenty-three recall campaigns involving 657,000 vehicles were (xxKhicted in Europe. It was hell finding some of them; they had been exported here.
The small-car share of the market was badly
miscalculated. To the surprise of many industry experts, including Ford management, sales of small cars as a percentage of the U.S. automotive market decreased, management said.
The companys own working plans as recently as December 1975 bad targeted small car sales at 53 per cent. By April 1976, the company had reduced its estimate of smail-car sales to 48 per cent, management admitted.
The consequences were severe. An inventory surpius of small cars caused plant (towntime and lost wages. And a loss was experienced in the companys fleet-average fuel economy rating, as measured by the government.
Why should a cmnpany wish to focus on its problems? Mr. Ford wanted it, said Walter Murphy, executive director of {Kiblic relattons, refOTing to Hairy Ford H, chairman.
Six months ago Mr. Find thought the rqxxt loiAed pretty good but that we should share with the
stockholders the problems management has, sweep them up and put them on one page so no one will miss them, he said.
In Uie earlier stages there was a lot of input from a variety of sources, and not everyone was wildly enthusiastic, he continued. Everyone doesnt jump up and down with joy \^en you do this.
But it got done. When he wants something it gets done a lot easier and (]uicker, said Murphy. And when it was published, he said, it was generally regarded favorably within the company.
It was a great year to test such an innovation, because net income reached nearly a billion dollars, a fantastic profit year, said Murphy, a year fen- which stockholders might forgive managements less desirable ac-complishmoits.
Management also shared with stockholders the problem of corrosion, a conseipience, it says, of greatly incroised te of salt on roads in the United States and Canada that requires
special steel, coatings, enamels and sealers.
Service dissatisfaction was conceded. Too many Ford, Lincoln and Mercury owners r^rt dissatisfaction with repair service received, it stated. We havent licked the problem, Murphy admitted, but he claimed 85 per cent of customers now are satisfied with service work and dont have to go back for adjustments.
Violence <mi TV represented another admission. Oh brother, said Murphy, we werent the most popular kids on the block on that one. Because of criticism, weve developed guidelines and pulled off some shows and are looking closely at anything we buy, MurjAy added.
And ien there was the problem with the United Autoworkers. Management said it was confident that a peaceful settlement could be reached in negotiations for a new work contract. A 28Klay strike Mlowed.

By DAVID R. NELSEN Associated Press Writer RALEIGH (AP) - Lieutenant governors would again automatically serve as chairman of the state Board of Education under a bill filed Monday night by a teacher-leg-islator.
Rep. Mary Nesbitt, D-Bun-combe, said her bill would simply restore a law that was repealed because Luther Hodges moved up to governor on the death of Gov. William Um-
stead about 20 years ago.
Meanwhile, the House approved a proposal that motorcycle drivers be required to pass a special driving test to earn a license.
In addition, the House debated a bill to require proper insulation before a new house or commercial building could be hooked up to natural gas or electricity and the Senate debated a bill that would regulate ramps and course markers for water skiing. Both measures were sent back to committee without action.

practices.
The Pailottines, in emotional appeals for funds to feed and cl(khe the poor, raised $20 million in a two-year period. But less than three cents of every dollar reached the orders foreign missions, an audit later showed.
About $16 million was used for massive direct-mail appeals and other millions were invested in Florida real estate ventures and loans to Maryland political figures. Including Gov. Marvin Mandel.
The proposed federal law by Rep. Charles H. Wilson, D-Calif., would require national charities that ask for your donations to tell you at the same time what percentage of the money goes to charitable work and what part is used for salaries and other expenses.
Eighteen states now require charitable organizations to file information with the state government before soiiciting.
A host of national charities support the Wilson bill and many of them have said they would prefer one federal law to a maze of state laws.
Some other charities support a uniform national law but say information should be disclosed on request, instead of at the time of solicitation.
Other charities, especially religious charities, oppose any regulation. The National Catholic Development Conference, an organization of fundraisers, said, Almsgiving and alms-asking are essentially acts of religion. We believe that we should have an unencumbered right to communicate with people, especially our co-religionists, in whatever way seems fitting.
Wilson aides say lobbying by Catholic organizations kept his bill from reaching a House vote last year.

Its impact clearly electrified some 150 presidents of Jewish organizations who heard Young. We had been told that the phrase defensible borders didnt mean much, one of the Jewish leaders told us. So, when Andy told us it did, and made such a point of it, not in the Q-and-A we had with him but in his opening statement, naturally we were highly gratified.
The Jewish leaders were also hi^ly gratified when Young went on to equate the hatred of Palestinian intellectuals for Israel with the hatred of Ku Klux Klanners for blacks in his old Georgia homeland. It brought terror to my heart, Young said, when he found this hatred of Israel in 1966 on his first trip to Jordan, where he saw and spoke to Palestinian refugees forced to flee their homes during the founding of Israel.
Continuing his ingratiating talk with the Jewish leaders. Young made two other points: Israel must always have enough military and economic strength to cope with this hatred of its enemies; nobody could decide terms of Israels political settlement with Arabs except Israel, certainly nobody living thousands of miles away apparently meaning the U.S.
Anobassador Youngs pr^ pensity to^try and help his President in subtle and delicate areas of foreign policy obviously needs more White House or State Department oversi^t than it is getting. But in the UN itself. Young is given high marks for efforts to defuse the volatile Security Council debate on southern Africas racial struggles. There has been no complaint about Youngs official work in the glass palace on Turtle Bay.
That is why some insiders here feel Andy Young should spend more time at his^UN desk and less roaming the minedfieldsofforeignpolitics in which every explosion damages Jimmy Carter just a little more.
(
Rep. Nesbitt said her bill was not prompted by Lt. Gov. Jimmy Green being elected tem
porary chairman of the board after the former chairman, Dallas Herring, was not appointed to another term by Gov. Jim Hunt. Herring became chairman to replace Hodges, Mrs. Nesbitt said.
This is the one time in history when we can move to put this where it should be, she said. Wed better do it now or well never have another opportunity to do it.
Saying several members of the House have promised support, Rep. Nesbitt said she had not discussed it with Green. I was just acting on my very own initiative, she said. Hunt had suggested last week that Dr. David Bruton of Pine Tq)s, a Hunt nominee to the board.
be elected chairman.
It would benefit the public because the lieutenant governor is a full time state officiai who is accessible to the people, she said.
Also in the iegislature Monday night:
MOTORCYCUSTS
Without debate, the House approved a bill sponsored by Rep. George Miller, D-Durham, to require motorcyciists to pass a special test to obtain a drivers license. The bill would allow motorcyclists to have Just a license for that form of vehicie or to qualify for driving both cars and motorcycles.
The measure was sent to the Senate for consideration.
JAILS
A bill filed by Rep. Aaron Plyler, D-Union, would allow the secretary of correction to contract with county sheriffs to keep persons convicted of minor crimes if the sentences are no longer than 180 days. Gov. Jim Hunt had asked the legislature to adopt such a law due to overcrowded conditions in the state prison system. More than 14,000 Inmates are being held in space designed for 10,000.
Sen. McNeill Smith, D-Guiiford, said last week he is pianning to file a similar bill. Plyler said he and Smith had not worked together on the bills, but he said he had con-
suited with the governors office.
RIGHT TO DIE
A bill filed by Sen. William Smith, D-New Hanover, would allow a terminally ill person to die rather than stay alive by artificial devices. The bill would require that the person sign a deciaration that he does not want to be kept alive by artificial means.
SCHOOL CHIEF A bill filed by Sen. Ed Renfrew, D-Johnston, would propose a constitutional amendment to have the state superintendent of pubiic instruction appointed rather than
elected. Renfrew was chairman of a special study commission on public schoois which suggested the bili among its proposals.
Now, the superintendent is eiected. The bill would require approval of the voters.
SCHOOL BOARD Another bill by Renfrew would propose a constitutional amendment to change how the Board of Education is appoint
ed. The bill would have the legislature name a member from each of the 11 congressional districts and four appointed at large by the governor. The lieutenant governor and treasurer would also be members.
The proposal was opposed by Gov. Jim Hunt when first suggested by Renfrews commission. Hunt has said he believes the governor should name the board.
Growers Urged Support Adminstrafive Change
Tobacco farmers are urged to support current proposed administrative changes in the flue-cured tobacco program which would improve and strengthen the program for 1977 andfuture years, according to J(rfin Sledge, president of the North Carolina Farm Bureau Federation.
The proposals, which appeared recently in the Federal Register would (1) re-instate certification of acreage while permitting a seven per cent tolerance in acreage quotas, and still enable a grower to remain eligible for price supports, and (2) Restrict late or fall leas-ingarrangements.
Sledge pointed out that these administrative changes announced by the USDA were definitely in line with Farm Bureaus position to seek administrative changes in the program which would eliminate abuses of the tobacco program in these two areas.
Sledge said the first proposal would allow a seven per cent excess planting which could cover leaf losses in the harvesting process or give the producer the opportunity not to harvest or sell less desirable or lower priced leaf. Under the leasing restriction the lessor could lease-out only the number of pounds underproduced and the leasee could lease only the amount he needs to market his production.
The farm leader said Farm Bureau supports legislation recently pas^ by the U.S. House of Representatives that would give added protection to the tobacco program. The bill, introduced by Rep Walter Jones, Chairman of the House Tobacco Subcommittee, would

Suck conflicts occur constantly. The battle over deregulation of natural gas is yet to be fought. In this area, what is the consumers interest? What position would an Agency for Consumer Advocacy take? Would it intervene to keep the price of gas down? Or would it go the other way?
The new agencys first function would be to intervene in the way rules, regulations, and decisions are made and carried out. Toward that end, the agency would intervene or otherwise participate in proceedings before federal agencies. It would have * power to enter judicial proceedings. The agency would have its own information-gathering authority, including access to information held by other government agencies and private concerns.
To be sure, the President denies that his small, effective agency would get out of hand, but the President has not been around Washington very long. Mr. Carter has outlined sweeping responsibilities, reaching across the entire spectrum of federal rules and regulations. It is inconceivable that these responsibilities could be met without the creation of a massive bureaucracy. Before long, we would have scores, then hundreds, of busy, busy, busy bureaucrats, doing nothing that needs to be done.
The government already has one feisty little agency, the Council on Wage and Price StabUity, that labors effectively in this field. But .the councils powers are limited. It can neither harass nor delay. It can only squawk, and it squawks well. In the name of efficient government a name Mr. Carter constantly invokes isnt one such agency enou0)?
require a minimum of 80 per cent instead of the present 50 per cent of the allotment be planted when an allotment is leased after the market season begins.
Sledge, a Martin County tobacco grower, said, We feel this legislation and administrative proposals will have a very positive impact in improving the overall tobacco program and the acceptability of the 1977 crop.
He emphasized that the tobac
co Industry can be flexible and has demonstrated its willingness to adopt changes in the tobacco program when conditions warrant. He said Farm Bureau has been in the forefront in proposing such changes over the years.
USDA will receive farmers comments on the proposed changes in the Federal Register until April 19 after which the final determination will be made on implementation.

McGovern Looks To Cuban Trade
WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. George McGovern wants Congress to pass legislation permitting U.S.-(^ban trade of food and medicine as the next step toward improved relations between the countries.
McGovern, who met with Cuban leader Fidel Castro in Havana last week, told a news conference Monday he will' ask President Carter to consider a partial lifting of the trade embargo against C^uba.
The South Dakota democrat said the embargo is the biggest obstacle to closer relations be-twei the United States and C!uba, adding he believes most Americans think the time has come for a resumption in trade.
The embargo is the big sticking point and I dont think
New Copter Faces Tests
FAYTTVILLE, N.C. (AP) A rocket-powered heliciqiter whose inventor says it can be flovm after a day of training soon will be tested at Ft. Bragg.
The one-man craft weighs 130 pounds and is capable of carrying 600 piMinds.
Its uses are almost endless, said Co. Bruce E. Wallace who is in charge of the Armys Airborne Communications and Electronics Board at Ft. Bragg. It has applications for scouting, reconnaissance, patrols, convoy control and attack.
Aerospace General Co. of Odessa, Tex., develiqied the helicopter which was partly the invention of the companys president Gilbert MaGill.
MaGUl claims the machine can be flown with one hand at speeds up to 125 miles per hour and can be used to train a 12-man Special Forces team with no previous fli^t experience within a week.
Wallace said tests must await a contract agreement between MaGill and the Armys Aviation Systems Command in St. Louis. Wallace said test models would cost between $2,-500 and $3,000.
The small rocket engines are mounted at the ends of the rotcH* blades. Exhaust from Uk engines, which bum a hydrogen peroxide solution, is steam.
much is going to happen until that is lifted, at least partially, he said.
On another tiqiic, Mc(}ovem said Castro plans to continue his policy toward hijackers, even though a formal anti-hijacking agreement with the United States expires on Friday.
Hijackers who force planes to land in Cuba are taken into custody by the government, put to work and paid a subsistence.
On other topics, McGovern said:
Castro and his brother Raul denied there are any Cuban military forces in Uganda or Zaire. Cubans in Angola, where they helped support the winning side in that nations civil war, are being withdrawn, the Cas-tros say.
He argued with the Castro brothers that the United States had no role in the terrorist bombing of a Cuban airliner by anti-Castro-activists, some of whom reportedly once had CIA connections. But Castro insisted the United States has a responsibility to control the people it trains.

(Continued from page 1) sure they dont run afoul of trade regulations.
We represent the agricultural sector in multi lateral relations such as the Geneva agreements and bilateral relations such as tariffs. Working with the governments requires the support of private trade,Mackie said.
Mackie said that three of the dilemmas in developing farm pro^ams are (1) having to maintain and build export markets efficiently, (2) dealing with policy of production controls, and (3) hi^ loan rates.
The General Agreement of Tariffs and Trade (GATT) which Mackie termed fair trade rules club for developing countries;^ is an important factor in world trade. GATT basically establishes a system of trade rules and member countries who adhere to the policies are influenced by world pressure rather than fines.
The GATT is a long term interest fii fair trade instead of trade barriers.
Asked why the U.S. cant impose some sort of import restrictions on products such as tobacco to protect the domestic market, Mackie said, The quota restriction is in direct violation with GATT. GATT says restriction on tariffs is agreeable but restrictions on quota is not agreeable because it does not allow competition. Mackie said that the coffee shortage is a realistic shortage and it has shown how demand of a product can influence prices.
' There is a shortage of coffee, but it is not sharp enough to run prices up this much. The market reacts to supply and it swings sharply which means that the demand must be strong. We dont think that it has been a con-cious effort of Brazil to increase prices because people will switch and maybe not use the product again.
Mackie said that the reduction
hurts domestic production. If the government does restrict Japanese imports, under GATT we must compensate Japan in another area. The President has already suggested the restriction on Japanese shoes,- Mackie said.
He explained that in multilateral relations, you have to give something to reduce a barrier in another area. The United States because of the U.S. 1974 Trade Act negotiates the trade of agriculture and industry together.
Following his presentation, Mackie answered agribusiness members questions.
Trees and one row of Way Myrtle bushes are being planted as a windbreak. The Way Myrtle is a native evergreen shrub that is nearly free of insects and disease pests. The leaves, when crushed have a distinct pungent odor. Way Myrtle grows well on a wide range of soils.
This conservation plan was prepared in coiqieration with the Pitt Soil and Water Conservation District. Windbreak plantings are eligible for ACP cost sharing in Pitt County.

TUESDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 12, 1977Pirates Squeeze Two From Marshall
By WOODY PEELE Reflector Sports EdlU-
Freshman Billy Best once again played the hero for the East Carolina Pirates yesterday. He twice delivered the hits that drove in the winning runs as the Pirates squeeked past Marshall University in two important Southern Conference games.
The Pirates, following the 4-3 and 2-1 wins, kept their positiim atop the Southern Conference, with a perfect 8-0 record. And they ran their winning streak to 14 games and the years record to 21-6.
Marshall, which had come into the game with only one league
defeat, dropped off to 12-11 overall and 3-3 in the conference.
Both games were tough for the Pirates to puli out, however. East Carolina had to rally for three seventh inning runs to pull out the victory in the first game, and they spotted Marshall a 1-0 advantage in the first inning of the second, before coming up with two fifth inning runs to win it.
Mickey Britt picked up his sixth win against no losses in the (^ner, while Pete Conaty got the win in the second in relief of Larry Daughtridge. None of the three pitched a stellar game, however.
Daughtridge allowed only two
hits in three-plus Innings, while Conaty gave up Just one in four inning, but both had control problems. Daughtridge walked five and Conaty, two.
Britt was tagged for eight hits, including two doubles.
Marshall broke the ice in the first game with two runs in the fourth inning on five hits. Larry Berkery opened up with a single to caiter. Then, after one was out, John Wilson singled to left. A hit by John Rulli brought in Berkery, and an infield hit by Glen Lewis scored Wilson.
Marshall got its other run in the seventh. Mike Horan hit his second double of the day to lead off, and moved to third on an in
field out. Mike Mueller reached on an infield hit, scoring Horan for a 3-1 lead at the time.
East Carolina had several scoring opportunities, but twice double plays took them out of the action. In the fourth the first Pirate run scored. That came off a lead-off home run by Eddie Gates, who had doubled his first time up.
It stayed that way until the bottom of the seventh when the Pirates were able to put it together with the winning rally.
Rasnnie Styons led off with a double to left, and Tommy Cobb ran for him. Robert Brinkley singled to right, and a wild pitch let Cobb score. Charlie Stevens
delivered a single that brought Brinkley in from second, tieing the game at 3-3. Stevens was sacrificed to second, and made it to third on an infield out. Best then delivered a single into left, easily scoring Stevens with the game-winning nu.
Bests day as the hero wasnt over yet, however as the Pirates had to struggle to win the second game, too.
The Thundering Herd came up with its lone run of the second game in the opening inning. With one away, Harry Severino walked and John Wilson also drew a free pass to first. Rulli reached on a fielders choice that left runners at first and third. Mueller

New Kid On The Block Sitting In First Place In Eastern Race
By BOB GREENE AP Spwts Writer
Dont look now, but that new kid on the block the Toronto Blue Jays is sitting in first place in the American League East Divison.
Nobody knows whats going to happen down the road, but weve got to be happy with whats transpired to date, said Toronto Manager Roy Hart-sfield after the Blue Jays beat the Detroit Tigers 3-3 Monday, their third victory in four games.
It gave Toronto a half-game lead in the AL East, ahead of the Cleveland Indians.
In other AL games Monday, Kansas City needed 13 innings to edge New York 54, Texas nipped Geveland 3-2 in 10 innings, Oakland squeezed by California 3-2 and Minnesota clobbered Seattle 12-3.
Whats as impressive as our record is how weve won the games, Hartsfield said.
The expansion Blue Jays have yet to score first in a game. But they rallied from a 4-1 deficit on opening day, fell behind 1-0 Sunday before winning and trailed Detroit 1-D Monday.
After tying the score in the sixth, Toronto fell behind again when Detroits Jason Thompson slammed a two-run homer. But the Blue Jays scored four runs in the seventh, aided by a balk by rookie Tigers pitcher Dave Rozema.
Royals 5, Yankees 4,13 innings
John Mayberry blasted a Dick Tidrow pitch high off the right field fence in the bottom of the 13th inning, scoring Fred Patek from second with the winning run in the nationally televised game.
Mark Llttell, who held the Yankees hitless in four innings of relief, was the winner. Starter Paul Splittorff had checked the potent Yankees bats without a hit after the fifth inning, when the New Ywkers took a 4-3 lead.
Rangers 3, Indians % 10 innings
T(g>y Harrahs home run in the bottom of the 10th gave Texas its victory over Cleveland and ran the Rangers r^ord to 4-0. Harrah homered off reliever Day LaRoche, vrtio was the winning pitcher in the Indians first two games.
The Rangers had tied the score 2-2 in the bottom of the
ninth on a sacrifice fly by Bump Wills after Geveland had gone ahead 2-1 in the top of the inning on Bill Meltons run-scoring single.
Twins 12, Mariners 3 A two-run homer by Larry Hisie sparked Minnesotas 13-hit attack against Seattle. Lefthander Geoff Zahn, a non-roster player in the Twins Florida training camp this spring, picked up his first American League victory althou^ needing help in the ninth.

By WOODY PEELE Reflecfan* Sp(Hrts EdiUar BEAR GRASS - At the start of the 1977 baseball season, most of the observers around the Beaufort-Hyde-Martin Conference didnt expect much from Bear Grass, despite the fact that the Bears were the defending league champs.
We lost six seniors off that team, five of whom started, Coach Jerry Rogerson said. I expected this to be a rebuilding year, myseif, so Im a little surprised myself.
Not only is Rogerson surprised, so is the rest of the league.
Currently, the Bears are riding an 11-0 record and they are 5-0 in league play. Last night, they dn^ped Manteo, 13-2, avenging one of the few losses they had last year. Manteo beat them in the district finals, and went on to win the state championship on the l-A ievei.
We had to fill five spots, and the team has come throu^ real well. This year, we have nine seniors, so wed better do it this
year, or were in trouble.
One reason for the success is the return of both of the pit-chers from iast year, righthander Ray Wynne, and lefty Dwayne Baker. Wynne is a senior and Baker a junior. Ray has a good curve, a good knuckler, and average ^>eed on his fast ball, and he keq>s them off stride. Dwayne throws a lot of curves.
The Bear Grass defense has been real good so far. You wouldnt know it to look at our box scores, but its misleading. Weve been giving up about six runs a game, but weve been abie to score about 12. Weve been getting an early lead, ien putting our subs in to give them experience. Actually, I think we have one of the best defenses in the conference.
Rogerson also feels that the Bears are hitting the ball well. Were getting about nine hits a game. Top hitters are third-baseman Jeff Bullock; Wynne, who plays center when hes not on the mound, and Jerry Wynne, the shortstop. Baker, who is at
first when not on the mound, aiso is hitting the bail weil.
The rest of the lineup has freshman Jesse Bullock at catcher; Alton Cratt at first or center, depending on who is pitching; Junie Wynne at second (rated the best glove on the team); David Bowen in left, and Robert Harrison in right.
Dickie Wiliiams is a top returnee from last year, but has not been eligible until last week. He is expected to be used as a designated hitter.
In the league, Rogerson iooks to Bath and Jamesvilie to be the toughest challengers to the Bears title hopes.
We only got by Bath, 2-1, here, and we still have to play them down there. Thats been their only loss too, so we look for a tough game from them.
I hope we can get back in the piayoffs. This is the hardest working bunch of kids Ive ever worked with. No one ever thought wed be 11-0 right now, but this group has come on real strong. I just hope we can keep it up.

The remaining 10 teams were dimlnated in the 902-game regular seasmi which began back on Oct. 21. If that seems like a long time ago, rnsider this; if each of the playoff series goes the maximum number of games, the NBA will not crown its champion until June 8.
There was no change in the status of the referees strike M(mday. The National Labor Rdatkms Board postponed issuing its decision on the unfair labor practices charge leveled by the National Association of Basketball Referees against the NBA whoi the union said it had some furthor evidence to present.
Thus, the 24 members of the

Spinks Scared Of The Pressure
By ED SCHUYLER JR.
AP Sports Writtf
NEW YORK (AP) - To teU the truth I was scared, said Leon Spinks, who then flashed a gap-toothed grin that made him look like the scarer rather than the scaree.
But Leon wasnt talking about being scared of another human. The Olympic light heavyweight champion in Montreal was talking about how he felt in terras of pressure before his first pro fight which he won on fifth-round knockout.

CHICAGO (AP) - PhUip K. Wri^ey, chewing gum magnate and owner of the (Tiicago Clubs baseball team, died today at the age of 82.
Wrigley was stricken at his Lake Geneva, Wis., home Monday night and died this morning at Lakeland Hospital in El-khom, Wis., said a spokesman for the William Wrigley Jr. Co.
Wrigley died of a gastrointestinal hemorrhage, said the qx)kesman for the Wrigley Co,

By JOHN NELSON AP Sports Writer
NEW YORK (AP) - Major leagiK baseball and Cut^ President Fidel Castro have moved another step closer to bringing a U.^ team to the communist islaiM for flie first time in more than a decade.
Baseball Ck)mmissioner Bowie Kuhns offlce announced Monday that it had received and had looked favoraUy uponan invitation from Castro to send a U.S. major league all-star team to Cuba.
The invitation was relayed <mi Monday to Kuhn by Sen. George McGovern, D-S.Dak., who toured the island last week with two college basketball teams from South Dakota.
It would seem, with the events of the day, that it (a Cuban tour) probably moved a step closer, said Bob Wirz, director of information for the commissioners office. But in our minds, it would be premature to be saying .the commissioner had acepted the invitation and to make it sound like the tour definitely will happen.
No U.S. major league baseball team has played in Cluba since diplomatic relations were severed with the island in 1962.
Wirz said Kuhn hdd McGovern that were continuing our effort to send an all-star team to play in (^uba. Win added, We could probably do so either afta* the World Sa-ies or next spring.
McGovom said in Washington be had renewed bis discussion Castro about a U.S. team
visiting Cuba as part of a continuing program of ^rts and cultural exdianges. And he said Castro had accepted the idea of allowing an all-star team to visit Cuba.
McGovern said be had discussed such a trip during a visit be made to Cuba two years ago and that Castro, an avid baseball fan, wanted the New York Yankees. But Kuhn insisted that if any team toured Cuba, it had to be an all-star team.
Both parties seem to agree on what Cuba is inviting us to do and vriiat kind of team the conunissioner would like to send, said Win. But he added that baseball must first make certain the State Department concurs and that all other ramifications are worked out.
Win said there were no further discussions scheduled, at this time, with either the State Dqiartment or Cuban officials.
Should Buy His Ticket
TALLADEGA, Ala. (AP)-If Buddy Baker really meant what he said, there would be a line of leading Winston Ciq> Grand National drivers outside the Talladega ticket office trying to buy Baker a grandstand ticket.
Ill tell you what, Baker was telling garage group Smalltalk session in Atlanta, Ga., recently, after watching the film of last years Winston 500, Im coivtaK^ I would buy a ticket to watch that race myself!
Baker, understand, won the 1976 Winston 500 at Alabama International Motor Sp^way. The Charlotte, N.C., native won it in rec<Hd-breaking fashion, covering the 500-mile distance at an average speed of 169.889 miles an hour. It was the first time in auto racing history a 500-mUe race had beoi run in less than three hours. Baker needed only two hours, 56 minutes and 37 seconds to make the Winston 500 the worlds fastest 500-mile event.
Last years Winston 500 victory was also Bakers second in a row, which prompted Dave Marcis to teli him, if youll promise me youll watcli this years race from the grandstand, Ill buy you all the tickets you want.
Baker grinned. Ill be watching it all right, but Ill be a lot closer to the action than that.'
David Pearson, who won the Winston 500 in 1972, 1973 and 1974, chimed in. I both of you are watching it from behind me, e^iecially on the last lap.
Everyone laughed, but when Sunday, May 1, rolls around, the laughter will turn to 188 laps of competition between Baker, Marcis, Pearson and 37 other hopeful drivers who will zoom around the worlds fastest speedway in quest of a $236,885 purse, the largest in Talladega history.
Meet In The Finals
WUJJAMSTON - Bertie and Saratoga will meet toiight for the Williamston Invitational Softball Tournament title.
The two won semifinal championship bracket games last night to advance to the finals. Saratoga downed Wilson, 18-17, while Bertie took a 21-18 win over Greene Central.
In the opening game of the day, Plymouth to(* a 19-18 win over Roanoke. C. Albritton led the RoaixAe hitting with two, including a home run. M. Joi^ and B. ^ruill also added two hits. Tnieblood had three for Plymouth.
In the second game, Williamston nipped Ayden-Grifton, 8-6. Terri Hopkins, Cindy (Cipher (home run) and Gwen Williams each had two for Williamston, while V. Ellis had two and M. Rowe had a homer forAydoi-Grifton.
Bertie took a 21-18 win over Greene Central in the third game. C. Roulbac led Bertie with two, including a homer, while H. Freeman also had a homer. A. Sutton had four hits, with a homer for Greene Central, vdiile G. Jones had three, including two homers.
Today, Ayden-Grifton and Roanoke meet at 4 p.m., with Williamston and Plymouth n^eting at 5:30 p.m. Greene Coitral and Wilson cdlide at 7 p.m., with the title game bet-weoi Bertie and Saratoga at 8:30 p.m.
The Spurs, led by George Gervin and Larry Kenon, wilt try and beat the Celtics with quickness, but hardly any-oneouthustles Cowens and John Havlicek.
Cleveland-Washington Washington has come up short in the playoffs the last eight years, a dubious distinction.
Elvin Hayes is coming off his best season ever, but the big difference in the Bullets is the speed, hustle and depth provided by newcomers Tom Henderson, Mitch Kupchak and Larry Wright.
The Cavs are not healthy. Playmaker Jim Cleamons is out with a severely pulled groin muscle and Campy Russell, Nate Thurmond, Elmore Smith and Bingo Smith also are below par.
WESTERN CONFERENCE Detroit-Golden State
Golden Stte is a playoff-tested team, warns Detroit Coach Herb Brown, noting that the Warriors won the title two years ago.
In Rick Barry they have a player capable of dominating any playoff series. The Warriors other forward, Jamaal
Wilkes, missed the last two regular-season games because of the illness of his Infant daughter. But he rejoined the team Monday and will play tonight.
Detroit needs a big series from center Bob Lanier, who has played only two games since breaking his right hand late in the season. But they were good games, and Lanier like Barry is capable of dominating a series.
Chteago-Portland
These are two of the NBAs hottest teams, Portland having won six in a row and Chicago having taken 20 of its last 24 games. It is a matchup of two dominating centers Portlands Bill Walton, who led the NBA in rebounding and blocked shots, and Chicagos Artis Gilmore,'who was fourth in both categories.
The Bulls led the league in defense for the third straight season, allowing just 98 points per game. How well they can stop Portland from running, with Waltons crisp outlet passes keying the fast break, will go a long way toward determining the outcome of the series.

FORECAST FOR WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13. 1977
By JAY SHARBUTT AP Tdevliion Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Eggs splat into a skillet in tempo to the thunder of The 1812 Overture." A submarine periscope rises in a ladys bubblebath. A finger emerges from a phone and starts dialing.
Such is what Jack Lemmon calls the utq>redictable and illogical view of the world" his close pal, Ernie Kovacs, constantly displayed in TV comedy specials until he died in a car crash in 1962.
In most areas tonight, that surreal, satirical view is coming back in the first half-hour edition of public TVs The Best of Ernie Kovacs, a 10-week series made by Chicago station WTTW.
Dont miss it. Culled from kinescopes and videotapes of Kovacs work in the mid-1950s until his death, its a fine sam-(rie of why he was considered such a major influence in TV comedy.
Wish he still were with us. He loved the outlandish sight gag, didnt fear the use of silence and felt the home audience needed no canned laughter to know what was funny and what wasnt.
Nor was he afraid to insert a little travding music a recording of Mack the Knife" sung in German by a gent sounding as if he were at the end of a rope to fill time between sight gags.
Good satire of TV trends is rare these days. In which case youll flip over Kovacs salvo at televisions penchant for copying a successful form and beating the poor thing to death.
Toni^ts prime example is the now-extinct Western, which
ERNIE KOVACS is seen In some of his memorable and wacky characters he portrayed In his TV programs during the 19S0s in a collection to be shown (HI public television. The segmoits are culled from kinescopes and videotapes of his work in the mid-1950s untU his death. (AP Wirephoto)
was the rage in the early 1960s. It was so much of TV thoi, he notes, the classic gun duel scene on Western streets was done 200-300 times a week.
Directors were forced to adopt a variety of ways of showing the shootout. Kovacs shows it the usual way, then from an overhead view, then the ground view, (shooting up through clear plastic) and even the view from the hole left in a victim after the shootout.
From there, he has at Uie then-radical adult Western,

The bidding:
East Sooth West North Pass Pass Pass 1 Pass 2 Pass 2 0 Pass 2 NT Pass 3 NT ' Pass Pass Pass Opening lead: Two of .
This is a test of your defensive ability. Cover the West and South hands and see if you can do as well as East did when this hand was played. Against three no trump, your partner leads the two of spades. You are playing duplicate, so overtricks are important. Plan your defense.
The auction has been unexceptional, except that it is obvious that declarer has ventured into no trump with a tenuous spade stopper. Before playing to the first trick, you should consider the possibilities. Your five low diamonds suggest that declarer has at least four tricks in the diamond suit, in addition to the ace of hearts and a spade trick. Since you hold nothing in either clubs or hearts, declarer will surely be able to develop one of those suits for whatever additional tricks he needs. The only source of
tricks for the defense is spades, but you will have to unblock the jack of spades if you are to free the suit for partner.
If you won the ace at trick one and returned the jack, you are on the right track, but your defense is not good enough. Dummy wins, and declarer loses the club finesse. Now, your partner can cash a spade trick, but then the defense is through, and declarer scores ten tricks.
You have overlooked the possibility that partner might have a tenace position in spades, and to run the suit you will have to unblock while maintaining your entry. Observe what happens if, on the first trick, you drop the jack of spades!
Now when declarer takes the club finesse, partner wins and continues a spade to your ace. You return the suit, and the defense nets three spade tricks and a club, for an excellent score on the board.
What if declarer holds the ten of spades? Its unlikely, tor partner shouldn't lead the deuce from four to the nine. Even if he had, the defense can recover if West shifts to hearts after winning the king of clubs, establishing the third trick for the defenders before declarer can set up the ten of spades for his eleventh trick.

where the emphasis was not so much on how something happened as on why.
Whereupon a gunfi^ter who killed his brother tells a psychiatrist the deed was done cause he was always naggln me.
Then comes a Twilight ZcMie Western in which the baddies six-gun suddenly turns into six bananas.
From there, its on to Rancid, the devil Horse, a'gun-tot-ing nag with a handlebar mustache, followed by a German Western.
Some of the gags work, some dont. And some older viewers who now recall only the classic Kovacs bits may feel a bit disappointed. Which is to be expected when looking back at a legend.
Still, young and old alike should take a look back at the industrial-strength genius of Kovacs, whose work later was echoed in such hits as Laughin and Monty Pythons Flying Circus.
Most of what he did is mighty funny even today and amply disproves his gentle jest that despite a small budget and no stars, tonights show stUi teethers on the brink of mediocrity.

School Buses Are Safer Than Many People Think
By DAVID TOMLIN Associated Press Writer
RALEIGH (AP) - A chUd is safer from serious injury on a school bus than he would be in his familys car, an Associated Press study of North Carolina accident statistics shows.
Oddly enough, the same statistics indicate that a child is far more likely to be involved in an accident on a bus than in a car.
But the AP analysis showed all vehicles in North Carolina, mostly cars, had a serious injury every 1.8 million miles they drove last year. School buses, on the other hand, drove more than 3.5 million miles for every serious injury.
The safety gap between school buses and all vehicles grows many times wider when you consider that each mile of school bus travel represents 30 or more passenger miles, which is another way of saying that school buses carry more people farther with fewer serious injuries than most other means of travel.
Moreover, buses scored better than most other kinds of transportation on brake failure as a cause of accidents. Out of every 100 reported accidents in the state in 1975, for example, 2.25 were caused by defective brakes. For school buses the figure was 0.35.
It is difficult to know how North Carolina compares with other states on school bus safety. The data offered by the National Safety Council is unreliable, since each state has different criteria for choosing the incidents it will report.
But entries in a national school bus fleet safety contest had an average of 15.92 accidents for every million miles they drove. North Carolinas rate in the 1975-76 school year was 12.61.
None of this is especially surprising, according to Dr. Patricia F. Waller of the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center.
You would expect school buses to be safer, she said. They drive in daylight on weekdays, safe times when there is little fatigue or alcohol on the
road. They travel familiar routes, they are cleariy marked in bright colors, their speed is limited meChtnically to 35 miles per hour and strict laws protect them from unsafe practices of other drivers.
In short, there is no statistical support for the view that school buses are any more dangerous than cwnmon sense says they ou^t to be.
Why. then, is the school bus system the target of periodic outbursts of public criticism?
Its just so enaotional. said James Vance, vice president of Thomas BuUt Buses Inc. of High Point, which makes about 6,000 schod buses each year. The worst thing in the world that can happen is for a child to get hurt.
School buses carry a priceless cargo, and the responsibility which that implies is keenly felt by workers at almost every level of the school bus transportation system.
I dwit want to feel like negligence on our part or on the part of a driver had anything to do with a kid getting hurt or killed, said Harrington Morrison, schod transportation supervisor for Harnett County.
Since 1955, when the state shed CMitrol of the buses to avoid being hamstrung by school integration lawsuit^ each county has operated its own schod bus maintenance program. The date foots the bill and plays a fairiy strong advisory rde, but the authcMity and responsibility are the countys.
Mechanics and transpmtation sifliervisors are hired by local schod boards, which also determine how many buses they will buy and where and how they will be maintained.
Each school principal is in charge of routing, driver selection and general management of his own bus system.
The state, with the power of the purse and some suppmtive statutes, keeps track of costs in each county and rides herd on maintenance with monthly bus inspection reports from the counties and a thorough annual inspection of each bus by a
state expert.
But the quality of school transportation in each county depends heavily on local officials, most of whom seem to prefer it that way.
You get a nut sitting behind a desk out here, youll ruin a county, says Harnett County schod superintendent Robert A. Gray. You get a nut sitting behind a desk in Raleigh, he'll ruin a whde state.
All the same, the way the system is set up means that some counties will have better preventive maintenance for their buses than others, simply because they hire a supervisor more carefully or because their supervisor is a better manager.
The Associated Press polled supervisors at random around the state and discovered several areas in which maintoiance procedures vary.
In some counties Pitt and Cumberland, for example a mechanic climbs into every schod bus every day, or every two days at most, to check for brake pressure and steering.
In others, it may be a week or two between mechanic checks, althouf^ drivers are supposed to report even the smallest maintenance problems daily.
In Yancey County, where 15-year-old Lisa Haney was paralyzed in a wreck last November,
each bus is checked every other day. The bus that crashed was due for a check the same day. Driver Jim Edwards
didnt notice a drop in brake pressure because he was a substitute T- the third driver in that particular bus in two days.
Differences in maintenance quality also show up at the state level in cost studies which show 14 or 15 counties spending
more than they should on maintenance. State school transportation director Louis Alexander says cost overruns often coinide with sloppiness in other areas.
The age of the buses is another area in which some counties may fre better than others.
The state replaces all buses after 12 years. Local boards buy any buses they need to expand their systems. In Yancey County, the board decided it couldntafford three new buses for the new Mountain Heritage High School right away.
Instead, officials asked for, and got, state permission to put three retired buses back into service until the system could afford new ones. Lisa Haney was hurt in the oldest of the three. The other two are still in use.
A total of 187 retired buses
are in service statewide.
Most mechanics and supervisors polled by the AP insisted old buses, well maintained, are as safe as new ones, maybe safer. But James Simmons, in charge of Yancey County school bus maintenance, disagrees.
Any vehicle on the road 11 or 12 years, espcially on our roads, running mostly in lower gears, is literally worn out from one end to the other, Simmons says. You spend so much time keeping it running, you dwit have time for preventive maintenance.
Another consideration, Simmons noted, is that school bus manufacturers only began installing dual brake systems 10 years ago. On older buses, if the brake system fails, there is no backup. Now Simmons checks those buses daily.

City Manager Jim Caldwell explained that the two major objectives of the hearings are to provide citizens with information on the nature and purpose of Revenue Sharing and to give citizens an opportunity to present their suggestions first hand.
General Revenue Sharing is a federal program, first enacted in 1972, under which federal funds are distributed to state and local governments. The expenditures

Two local youcns were arrested last night 1 charged of attempted breaking and ottering of a coin operated machine.
CTiief Glenn Cannon said Fred Lee Moore, 19 of 1407 Smith Washington St. and Marshall Holloway, 16 of 1305 South Pitt St. were jailed after they allegedly attempted to force opoi a coin operated machine at Leos Perco station at 110 West 14th St. about 11:34 p.m. Monday.

During the current fiscal year, Revenue Sharing funds have enabled the Recreation and Parks Dqiartment to open the Senior Citizois Center on Greene Street and the Public Works D^artment to initiate a public tran^rtatkm system. Funds were also used for maintenance and operating expoises for the library.
The city manager said that as a participating city in the program, Greoiville expects to receive $751,660 in revenues in the 1977-78 fiscal year.
