Beirut Car Bomb Kills

20 PAGES PRICE 25 CENTS

ByFAROUKNASSAR Associated Press Writer

BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) A car bomb ripped through a restaurant in Moslem west Beirut today, ki^ 22 and wounding 77 and triggering fighting along the Moslem-Christian dividing Green Line, police said.

The blast came a day after Christian militia commanders vowed revenge on their Moslem foes for a car bombing that kUled 55 people, mostly women, and wounded 119 in Christian east Beiruts Antelias suburb on Saturday.

That was the fourth car-bombing in the Christian sector since May. AlU^ether, 118 people were killed in those attacks.

Moslem-controlled radio stations reported another explosion tocUy in Beiruts Shiite Moslem suburb of Ghobeiri, and the Christian Voice of Lebanon radio said the second blast was also caused by a car bomb. Police could not immediately confirm the reports.

Police said they believed that todays first explosion, in the residential

Karakol el-Druse neighborhood, was caused by a bomb-laden green Peugeot car.

The explosioi, just aft- noon, wrecked the first two floors of a six-story buildi^, including the Hamadeh restaurant, and set three floors of an adjacent nine-smry apartment building on fire.

AP newsman Samir Ghattas, reporting from Karakol El-Druse, said the force of the blast hurled passing cars on top of each other. At least 15 were set ablaze.

The residential district is controlled by Druse militiamen, who Christian leaders blamed for Saturdays supermaitet bombing.

The Ghobeiri area where the second explosion was reported is controlled by Suites, allies of the Druse against the Christians in Lebanons 10-year-old civil war.

Within minutes of the Karakol explosion, Christian and Moslem gunners began shelling each others positions along the 3-mile Green Line that bisects

aurant

the city in Moslem and Christian territory.

There were no immediate reports of casualties from the fighting, but the clashes forced the closure of the Museum crossing, the main ^teway between Christian and Moslem sectors of the embattled Lebanese capital.

Ghattas said a filling station near the devastated restaurant was blackened by smoke. He said local Moslem militiamen cordoned off the area around the blast, firing in the air to clear the streets for ambulances:

Ihe owner of tte wrecked restaurant, Diab Hamadeh, told Ghattas there were no customers in his place when the car bomb exploit. His staff survived with minor cuts from flying glass shards.

We were all working inside, he said as his employees swept away splintered tables and shattered glass. Then we heard the ear-splitting blast. Everything fell in on us and we saw fires breaking out nearby.

Harvesting

Threatened

ByJANEWELBORN

Reflector Staff Writer Heavy rains in Pitt County this weekend may cause problems for farmers who are in the process of harvesting their crops, local agricultural officials said today.

Approximately 1.5 inches of rain were recorded at the Greenville Utilities Water Plant on Greene Street Saturday and Sunday, GUC officials reported today. Unofficial irecipitation estimates from around ^itt County indicate, however, that more rain fell in southern and western portions.

Pitt Agricultural Extension agent Mitch Smith said reports indicate the Grifton area received approximately five inches of rain during the weekend. An unofficial rainfall measurement in the Winterville area showed two inches of rain Saturday and Sunday, with over one-half inch of an inch of precipitation recorded between 6 p.m. and midnight Sunday. In contrast. Bethels rainfall was estimated at an inch-and-a-half.

Smith said the heavy rainfall will likely cause problems for Pitt County farmers. There will be an increased difficulty in the harvesting of tobacco, he said. The rainfall will cause file tobacco to yellow a bit faster than usual, and it will be hard to find ample barn room for the tobacco. He added that the wet, fields will be detrimental for* the use of harvesting equipment.

Water is most critical for soybeans at this time, Smith added, but it is needed in moderation. We didnt need five inches of rain.

High temperatures hovered in the low 90s this weekend, and the thermometer dipped to the low 70s at night. Sundays high was 84 degrees.

The river level was holding steady this morning at 1.9 feet above sea level, a normal level for the past several weeks.

Well be running overtime to get all the cars to the dealers, said Rob Thompson, vice president for industrial relations at Commercial Carriers in Southfield.

Thompson, whose company jias 18 terminals across the country, said the strike built a backlog of about 120,000 autos nationwide.

Pete Karagozian, president of car-haulers Local 299 in Detroit, the largest in the country with 2,000 members, said the joy may be shortlived.

This agreement may not pass. Thats the word coming back to us on the grapevine, Karagozian said today. I think another rejection is likely.

He was the only union leader who voted against a tentative agreement considered by Teamsters leaders Friday. He said today that his locals members shared his sentiment.

Car haulers heard details of the proposed three-year pact at

membership meetings nationwide Sunday, said Nellie McKim, a member of the unions national bargaining team and secrer tary-treasurer of Local 580 in Lans-ihg.

There were mixed reactions, she said. Some wanted to stay out until the vote count. Others were happy to return to work.

The car haulers were told to return to work today, but about 500 members of Local 988 in Houston reported to work at noon Sunday. Everything is getting back into full swing. Itll tke a day or two to clear the back log, Richard Hammond, president of the local, said today.

Elsewhere, however. Local 251 in Providence, R.I., didnt return to work today and about 75 members walked picket lines in a dispute with Nissan Co. over movement of new cars. Local spokesman Gerald Blinkhorn said today that negotiations were under way to settle the local dispute.

No Progress Noted In Talks On Racial Unrest In S. Africa

By MAUREEN JOHNSON Associated Press Writer PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) -Top South African church leaders met with President P.W. Botha today, and one said later they found themselves so far apart on how to deal with racial unrest that we hardly began to communicate at all.

The meeting was called to discuss a year of black anti-apartheid riots which have killed more than 600 peo-)le. Bishop Desmond Tutu, snubbed ast month when he asked for a one-on-one meeting, refused to attend.

Botha met the Rev. Jerry Falwell, the outspoken American fundamentalist minister, for private talks before todays meeting.

Falwell emerged upbeat. This country is making progress, he told reporters at a news conference in a Pretoria hotel.

Across town, the nine South African clergy gave a gloomy assessment in talks with reporters in a church, and one said Falwells perception of the problems involved was totally inaccurate.

There are two South Africas and there are two clocks running in South Africa, the one at past midnight and the other one at long before midnight, said the Rev. Peter Storey, a white, the head of the Methodist Church in South Africa.

I think we were trying to represent those for whom midnight has struck ... the South Africa where hopelessness and despair has welled over into rage.

There are 2 million Methodists in South Africa, 75 percent percent of them black.

The two perceptions of South Africa were so different we hardly began to communicate at all,said Durban-based Archbishop Denis Hurley, who is white and chairman of the Southern African Catholic Bishops Conference.

The nations Roman Catholics consist of 400,000 whites, 1.7 million blacks and 264,000 mixed-race, or colored, people.

Tutu, winner of last years Nobel Peace Prize, said earlier he did not believe Botha genuinely wanted to talk to blacks who dont agree with him. Tutu is the black Anglican bishop of Johannesburg and South Africas best-known foe of apartheid, the race segregation system by which 5 million South African whites govern 24 million voteless blacks.

Storey said today, upon hearing that Falwell said he believed in Bothas intentions to reform the country:

Mr. Falwells perception of the situation here is totally inaccurate. He hasnt the slightest notion of what is happening in the hearts and lives and experience of the majority of people in this nation.

Falwell, head of the Moral Majority movement that has injected religion into national U.S. politics, said after his 10-day tour in South Africa that he opposes U.S. economic sanctions to encourage change.

It is gross political and economic hypocrisy for the United States or any other country to point the finger, Falwell said.

More than 600 people have died in anti-apartheid violence since last August, according to South Africas Institute of Race Relations, an independent monitoring group.

Most victims were blacks killed in clashes with police, but black mobs have killed many other blacks thought to be collaborating with white rule.

In a four-page memorandum to Botha, the nine church leaders urged him to take specific steps to dismantle apartheid. They also asked him to convene a national constitutional convention, lift the state of emergency imposed July 21 and withdraw (Please turn to page 10)

uiiiy a few whO were on the top deck managed to swim to safety on shore.

The boat connects the city of Harbin, population 2.3 million, with the popular summer resort of Sun Island, a recreation, garden and convalescent center.

River traffic is usually at its busiest, on Sunday.

The boat had left Sun Island when a fistfight broke out on board. Onlookers rushed to one side to watch and the boat tipped over, the report said.

THE RICH ARE DIFFERENT NEW YORK (AP) - Rich people are more likely to beat heart disease than those with lower incomes are among the findings of a study done by the American Heart Associations Los Angeles Chapter, reports Feeling Great Magazine.

It says the study shows that men with household incomes of $13,600 and under have a 40 percent greater chance of dying from coronary diseases than men with household incomes of $28,550 or more. And, as income increases, the risk of heart attack, stroke, and hypertension decreases.

Not only can the wealthier afford better medical care, but they also tend to exercise more and have diets that are lower in salt and cholesterol, the magazine reports.

Dear Pat: I remember one of your columns dn weaving shoulder seams together with the Kitchener stitch, shaping them first by the use of short rows. I use the same shaping technique, but I join the shoulders seams a bit differently. 1 find it fantastically successful, especially on a garment

using a variety of pattern stitches where it is imperative that you have the patterns meet.

I place the stitches of one back shoulder section on one needle and the matching front shoulder section on another and place them together with the wrong sides of both pieces facing out.

Then I bind off the two pieces simultaneously, keeping in pattern as I go. To do this, the right needle tip is inserted through two stitches the first stitch on each of the two needles. 'Then I either knit or purl these two together depending upon which stitch is required to keep the pattern intact. I repeat this for the next pair of stitches and then bind off one right needle stitch over the other and continue across row until all are bound off.

This gives such a neat, sharp, evenly matched shoulder seam! It may be a bit clumsy until one gets the hang of it, but once it is conquered, I doubt if

any fussy knitter would do it any other way, even on stockinette pieces where pattern matching is not involved. Julie M,, Pittsburgh

Many thanks, Julie, for jogging my memory about a technique I have not discussed in this column for quite some time. I, too, like this shoulder joining on all but very bulky yarns, for which I prefer the weaving technique. This is purely a matter of personal preference and many readers may like Julies idea for any yarn.

The short row technique Julie mentions is a way of shaping a sloped edge while still leaving all stitches in the needle so that you avoid the stair step effect given when binding off in stages.

To do this, you simply work, in pattern, to within a few stitches of the neck edge of the garment, then turn and work back to the end of the next row without working the end-of-the-

Fresh Apricots Are Summer Treat

ByTOMHOGE AP Wine and Food Writer

The season for one of my favorite fruits, the golden-yellow apiicot, is in full swing and will run thmigh Augi^t.

This nutrition-filled fruit was repwtedly first discovered in China m(% than 4,000 years ago and still grows wild in the mountains there.

The famed golden apples of Greek mytholi^ are believed to have been apricots. Italy began growing the fruit as far back as alMUt 100 B.C., but it did not reach England until the latter part of the 16th century.

'Die Spaniards brought the apricot to the New World, and seedlings were planted in California at the Spanish missions in the 18th century.

Today, California is one of the worlds major producing areas. It grows 97 percent of U.S. apricots. About 26 percent of this crop is used for drying and it is estimated that dried apricots will run about one-third of total U.S. production in the near future.

Apricots rank above other deciduous fruits in basic nutrition, with a good concentration of Vitamin A.

Apricots are available to the consumer fresh, dried and canned. The season for the fresh fruit is fairly brief, but the other two forms are available all year.

The versatility of the apricot is remarkable. Not only is it suitable

row stitches.

For example, lets assume that your directions tell you to bind off 7 stitches at the beginning of each of the next 6 rows for back shoulder shaping. Instead of doing that, work to within 7 stitches of the end of the next row, turn your work and work to within 7 stitches of the end of the following row. For your next set of short rows, you would work to within 14 stitches at each end, and for the final set, work to within 21 stitches at each end.

After these 6 rows have been worked, work to the end of the last turning row and then work 1 full row after that. Your shoulder edges will then have the same slope from neck to shoulder edge that the binding off procedure would have given.

Lets go one step further. If you simply turn your work at each of these points, a gaping hole will show at each turning point in stockinette stitch. This is easily overcome, however, by taking the following steps.

Before you make the turn on purl rows, take the yam to the back of your work and slip the next stitch to the left needle; bring the yarn to the front and return the slipped stitch to the right needle. Now you are ready to turn.

On knit rows, take the yarn to the front before slipping the stitch and take it to the back before returning the slipped stitch to the right needle.

When you reach each of the turning points on the next full purl row, pick up the strand around the slipped stitch from the right side of your work and place it on the left needle; then purl it together with the next stitch on that needle. On knit rows you will also pick up the strand from the right side, but knit it together with me slipped stitch through the back loops.

If this last stage seems too complicated for you, it can be eliminated, but doing it as described gives the neatest finish.

WRINKLES AROUND THE MOUTH?

If you wear full dentures and have noticed lately that you seem to have an excessive amount of wrinkles around your mouth, you should probably have your dentures evaluated by your dentist.

Excessive mouth wrinkles are only one sign that your dentures may need to be adjusted or replaced with new ones. Other signs are sunken cheeks and lips, which not only detract from your appearance but can add a lot of years that dont need to be there.

If youve been wearing full den-tures for five years or more, they

may nave settled into your gums, causing your face to collapse or sag and forming unnecessary and unwanted wrinkles. But with a new denture your facial tissues can be plumped out" or rebuilt, getting rid of the sags and minimizing the wrinkles.

No matter how long youve been wearing dentures, they should be checked by your dentist periodically. He can see if they fit properly, and he can check the health of your gums and bone. The years come soon enough. Dont let your appearance add years that dont belong there.

Moftday, August 19,1965EditorialsKeep Mall

The citys parking authority has gone on record as favoring razing of the Evans Street mall between Third and Fifth streets and restoring traffic and parking on the two blocks.

However, representatives say, the authority has backed off from making a formal recommendation to that effect to the City Council. Instead the authority will further study the situation.

We should think the authority members would give the matter long and careful study before coming up with another off-the-wall recommendation. It makes no sense to bulldoze construction which cost $427,614 based on the far-fetched hope that it will stimulate downtown business. Surely authority members must recognize that many other factors have adversely affected downtown business. It is a situation which Greenville has in common with hundreds of other American cities.

Parking authority members should devote their time to keeping the downtown parking that the city now has and adding to it where possible. Flirting with the idea of destroying the mall is no answer.

The Evans Street mall was built in conjunction with various municipal parking lots, alleyway improvements and the Town Common in an effort to keep the downtown area from decaying. From that standpoint the work has been successful, although nothing could stop the migration of businesses to new . shopping malls.

:: The merchants who are left in the downtown area

are a feisty group and they seem enthusiastic about : improving their area. Certainly that is to be en-

:- couraged.

: What must be done is to build and improve on the

: assets we have in downtown Greenville. It is, after all, a well-located commercial area with good thor-.; oughfare access and at least a reasonable amount of -: offstreet parking. The mall is, or can be, a pleasant I: place to stroll and shop. Good promoters ought to be ' able to take these assets and run with them.

Shortchanging The InterstateRalty

On Aug. 15 there was a scattering of public observances to mark the 40th anniversary of the end of World War II. Many others observed the day within themselves; memories were evoked. Places, names and faces came out of the past as they had done on innumerable Aug. 15ths.

The memory^of disbelief was clear, too.

There had been disbelief in reading the words of the emperor of Japan who told his people their government was accepting the allies terms for peace. Experience had made them cynical to a degree their families could never guess. Disappointmehts big and little had been a part of their lives for years.

Illusions had been battered. Their war had been uphill all they way. They were not supermen. The enemy had proven to be a savage fighter who asked and gave no quarter. There had been setbacks; and victories extorted a price in lives, pain, fear and suffering. An end to the treadmill could not be visualized.

Reality did not dawn until weeks later, on Sept. 2, when the documents of surrender were signed on the deck of the USS Missouri.

Only then were doubts disspelled, and they knew they would be Going Home.

RALEIGH - Four years ago, North Carolina raised its gasoline tax by 3 cents in an effort to stop the deterioration of the states huge road system. Now that inflation is reducing the number of miles the state can repave with its fairly constant maintenance budget, whispers of a need for new Highway Fund money . again can be heai^ in Raleigh.

During a weeks vacation in New England this summer, this reporter found himself recalling much of the gasoline tax debate of 1981. I had plenty of time, you see, because I

spent a lot of time in traffic jams in places like Frederickslxirg, Va., Bradford, Conn., and Westchester County, N.Y.

1-95, this nations chief east coast artery, is a mess. For too long, the two states responsible for maintaining this road cheated. Mother Nature and the laws of physics ccHildnt be fooled, however, by politicians unwilling to pay the price to protect an investment. The road has crumbled in many places.

Its pretty easy to tell when youve left North Carolina. Enter Virginia

and the road begins to knock your car around. During the 1981 debate, I drove my brand new Datsun to Maryland for a weekend meeting. When I got back, the car had to be realigned as part of its 1,000 mile check-up. The potholes were that bad.

Virginia apparently is doing major repairs on 1-95. The section from Petersburg north past Richmond is as smooth as you could ask for. But between Fredericksburg and Washington, the road is almost impassable. Southbound, only two lanes

The Money Wars Begin

WASHINGTON - The reports are in at the Federal Election Commission, and they underscore what everybody in Washington has been marveling at this year: an unprecedented level of fund-raising by members of Congress.

Sen. Alfonse DAmato,, R-N.Y., who faces re-election next year, leads the pack with $3.4 million. Another 1986 incumbent. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Bob Packwood, R-Ore., follows with $2.65 million. Five other senators had reaised more than $1 million as of July !

Some of the most aggressive cash hounds in Congress face tough battles; others simply want to ward off ambitious opponents.

In any event, theyre increasing the pressure on Washington lobbyists to gather special-interest money. The result, as recent interviews with

dozens of business and labor lobbyists suggest, is an unprecendented level of activity by an unusually wide array of interest groups, as well as an anxiety that political action committee dollars cant buy what they used to. Many lobbyists, in fact, want public financing of congressional elections.

Most women workers could be, described, technically, as white collar. According to the Current Population Survey, about 65 percent of the women under 55 and 59 percent of those over 65 occupy executive, professional, sales or support staff positions. At 71 percent, the workforce wrticipation rate of women age 2044 las increased 2 percent since 1965; one-seventh more middle-aged women (ages 44-55, according to the report) are working today than 20 years ago.

Botha's Dilemma Is Acute

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (AP) Between police bullets and rioters rocks, white rejection of uni-; versal suffrage and black demands ; ior power. President P.W. Bothas ; dHemma is acute.

y He must find a power-sharing for-

* imila that will ease pressure at home

* 9d abroad while sticking to his pledge of no white abdication.

* What is being asked of the white ; man is not just a political or econom-; ic decision, says Franklin Sonn, a liberal Afrikaner academic and rec-. tor of the Cape provinces Peninsula

Technikoh. It is a decision in faith, in which there are no final guarantees.

; If South Africas whites yield some power to the voteless blacks, Sonn said, they will lose all control. Blacks outnumber whites 5 to 1, and by the time this nations frustrated black youths reach middle age, the ratio will be 17 to 1.

Botha, in a major policy speech Thursday night, offered a vague !co-responsibility to be worked out With unspecified black leaders

It was a speech roundly denounced by the main opponents of apartheid, South Africas system of racial segregation. Critics said it lacked specifics, such as a timetable for talks, and did not call for release of top black leader Nelson Mandela, serving a life sentence for a sabotage conviction.

It is clear that Mr. Botha does not want to see black leaders who are not black leaders of his own choice, said Bishop Desmond Tutu, a black who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984.

But the right wing of Bothas own National Party and the ultra-right Conservative Party, wedded to permanent white control, fear apartheid is being abandoned.

"You (Botha) are awakening a tiger in the whites, said Conservative Party leader Andries 'Treur-nicht. You will be crushed between black radical demands and whites resistance.

Meanwhile, black deaths have mounted to more than 600 in antiapartheid violence that has not been quelled by the state of emergency imposed July 21. Threats of international sanctions have become more pressing.

The 69-year-old Afrikaner president indirectly reaffirmed changes in one cornerstone of apartheid, the tribal homelands policy, under which the 24 million blacks were made citizens of 10 fragmented and impoverished areas comprising 13 percent of South Africa.

Botha said he has recognized that the 10 million blacks who live outside the homelands in South Africa are there to stay.

He said urban blacks and those in the six homelands that have refused indepen(^ce can have citizenship.

but did not say what that means.

Foreign Minister R.F. Botha, no relation of the president, said citizenship can be extended to the four other homelands, which have accepted independence but have not been unrecognized internationally.

Laws that deny blacks freedom of movement also are acknowledged as unworkable. However, theres been no step to scrap them from statute books that are packed with security laws and discrimination in everythine from schools and housing to most public transport.

Analysts and poitical opponents say Bothas main options are;

releasing Mandela unconditionally and holding talks. Mandelas outlawed African National Congress guerrillas and the United Democratic Front, the largest multiracial anti-apartheid group, say they will settle only for a unitary state with universal suffrage.

enacting even tougher measures to quell black dissent while talking only with moderate black leaders. Any agreement reached with such blacks would be rejected by the ANC, the United Democratic Front and probably most Western powers.

setting up a federal state with some form of protection for minorities. This is the option suggested most often by the main white opposition party, the Prog^ive Federal Party, and Chief Gatsha

Buthelezi, hereditary leader of the countrys largest tribe, the 6 million-strong Zulu, in Natal province.

The Progressive Federal Party, supported % about 20 percent of white voters, favors a federation of non-racial states with universal suffrage.

Probably its not going to satisfy the outside world unless its one man, one vote, said PFP legislator Helen Suzman.

Theres no guarantee people wont tear up the constitution, she said. You can only make suggestions and hope theyll be accepted. We accept the realities of this country.

Government officials are now signaling theyll consider a joint plan by Buthelezi and the white provincial administration in Natal for power-sharing.

Buthelezi, who refused to accept independence for his Kwazufu homeland that consists of 44 separate chunks of land, said, We are prepared to shelve the ideal of one man, one vote in a unitary state.

Lawrence Schlemmer, a professor of political science at Natal University, said power-sharing in Natal could serve as a nucle|js of a federal council. He said such a council could become a negotiating forum after what he sees as the inevitable release of Mandela.

Car owners in American spent an average of ^,814 to maintain their motor vehicles last year, according to a recent survey by Hertz. The car .rental company also found that Americans were driving more and keeping their cars longer (7.6 years on average).

Susan Baker, wife of the Treasury secretai7, and the other Washington wives involved in Parents Music Resource Center have succeeded in winning a concession from the recording industry overjhe issue of raunchy lyrics. Stanley Gortikov, president of the Recording Industry Association of America, announced that member companies have agreed to apply generic warning labels on records and tapes that contain explicit references to sex, drugs, alcohol and violence.

The South Korean government, in the interest of self-perpetuation, seems to be asking for an explosion of 'the popular unrest at the 1988 Olympic Games it is scheduled to host. According to British press reports, the government intends this fall to enact a campus stabilization law establishing a judicial panel to try and rehabilitate suspected student radicals4n a six-month program. If student dissidents decline to subject themselves to th new system, they will be processed through the official courts and jailed.

As many as 5.1 percent of American-born males are likely to spend time in an adult state prison during their lives, according to a , Justice Department study. For the two years studied, 1974 and 1979, life sentences increased 37 percent for white males, 13 percent for blacks.

of the highway are omo \<iiile cod-structiwi crews rebuild the rest (rf the road. On a Saturday afternoon, a 20-mile drive through this construc-ti(Mi area UxA more than an hour.

In Maryland and Delaware, large sections of 1-95 are also being rebuilt. (Not just repaved, but actually Unm up and built from the gr(Mind again.) In Delaware, some temporary pavement has been laid to help traffic flow. But that means that lanes curve and bend in ways you d(mt ex-)ect on interstates and at least one ane just ended without any warning. New York traffic is always horrific. It moves at a density and speed one has trouble imagining. But when the traffic stops in New York, it stops. With the roads all tom up, the traffic on 1-95 from the city out toward Westchester moves about as quickly as the drive-thru at the local fast food outlet. There's no room fw the gradual merging of lanes so everyone just races to the point of convergence and then jams on their brakes.

It doesnt get any better in Connecticut. The toll booths which stop traffic every dozen miles or so are slated for demolition next year. Thats good because on a Friday morning in Norwalk, traffic on 1-95 was backed up for six-tenths of a mile just to pay the toll.

Then, there are the repairs. A bridge in Norwalk collapsed several years ago, several people got killed and Connecticut was embarrassed nationwide. So the state is repairing the bridges. Three-lane sections which are inadequate for the tremendous traffic flow have now been reduced to one or two lanes. You literally sit still in the crush.

Connecticut Gov. William ONeil has signs at all of these repair sites thanking people for their patience. The guy is up for re-election this year and youve got to believe those signs are the best advertising with frustrated motorists that his eventual opponent could ever hope for.

It may be a bit unfair to compare North Carolina roads with those of these Northeastern states. They have more traffic, more cold and more salt air to contend with. But they also neglected those roads. Theres a message waiting along 1-95 for both Gov. Jim Martin and the Legislature: An ounce of prevention ties up a lot less traffic than a pound of cure.

Elisha DouglasStrength For Today

The great English novelist, Robert Louis Stevenson, once wrote, When I was turned from one whose business was to shirk into one whose business was to strive and preserve, it seemed to me that all had been done by someone else. I was never conscious of a struggle, never registered a vow, nor seemingly had anything personally to do with the matter. I came around like a well-handled ship. There stood at the wheel that unknown steersman whom we call God.

Many people have experienced a transformation of life involving terrific struggle. But there are probably-many more for whom change was a gradual thing, in which, as Stevenson said, they seemingly had very little to do with the matter.

The greatest things in life are not done by us; they are done for us. We are like ships guided by the unknown steersman whom men call God.

Debate Continues Over Immigration Issue

Monday, August 19.1985 5

By LARRY MARGASAK Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - Forceful lobbying by Western fruit and vegetable growers will strongly influence, and may decide the fate, of Congress latest attempt to sU^ the ragtag army of illegal immigrants who cross U.S. borders looking for work.

Festering disputes over amnesty, employer sanctions and discrimination against Hispanics are still unresolved in this years immigration debate, but the argument over foreign agricultural workers threatens to eclipse them all.

The Western growers demand that new immigration legislation permit an ample supply of highly mobile foreign laborers to pick perishable crops now harvested by undocumented field hands.

As the growers send lobbyists and money to Washington, their opponents from Hispanic groups, the AFL-CIO and the American Civil Liberties Union are digging in, too.

Michael Durando, president of growers Farm Labor Alliance, called the potential loss of a largely unreg Western growers have an insatiable need for cheap labor, countered Joe Trevino, executive director of the League of United Latin American citizens. Alan K. Simpson, R-Wyo., chief sponsor of immigration legislation in the Senate, said the Western growers greed knows no bounds.

But his compromise proposal, which would ease restrictions on the current,, highly regulated foreign worker program, is also unacceptable to opponents of the growers.

The full Senate will likely consider Simpsons immigration bill next month. Sen. Pete Wilson, R-Calif., will attempt to amend it with the growers proposals.

Simpsons measure includes civil and criminal penalties against employers who knowingly hire illegal aliens in the future; a delayed amnesty program to be instituted after emp oyer sane tions are proved effective; optional record-keeping by employers; and financial aid to state and local governments that would provide welfare and education programs for newly legalized aliens.

The House Judiciary immigration subcommittee will begin hearings this fall on legislation co-sponsor^ by its chairman. Romano L. Mazzoli,

Vaccine To Fight Decay Is Sought

NEW YORK (AP) - Tooth decay can begin with a mothers kisses, but dental researchers hope that vaccinating children will one day beat Moms decay-causing germs to the punch.

A cavity vaccine wouldnt replace toothbrushes, floss and fluoride, researchers say, but it could help further reduce cavities, provide a boon in areas without good dental care, and perhaps point the way to blocking other diseases whose germs enter through the mouth or nose.

Vaccine research is focusing on a bacterium called streptococcus mutans, the main cause of cavities. With the help of sugar from the diet, it colonizes teeth and produces tooth-eroding acid.

Babies are generally exposed to the bacterium by the mother, usually through kissing (and) close intimate contact, said Dr. Michael Cole, visiting scientist at the National Institute of Dental Research.

But the bacterium cant settle in until the baby gets teeth, he said. That gap would give a vaccine the chance to go to work first to fend off bacterial colonization on teeth.

Then you have established a foothold, said Daniel Smith, an immunologist at the Forsyth Dental Center in Boston. If you wait until a kid enters school, they already have the bug.

Smiths group has targeted a bacterial enzyme called glucosyl transferase for its vaccine research. Initial results of an experiment involving about 30 college students suggest that capsules containing glucosyl transferase can prod the body into producing antibodies to the substance, he said.

British researchers are awaiting approval for a trial in humans for their vaccine candidate, which targets another bacterial product. Cole said.

He said the vaccine would probably be taken periodically by mouth. It would stimulate the bodys immune system to produce protein molecules called antibodies, which would attack and neutralize a substance the bacterium makes to help form colonies. The vaccine would not only raise the natural low level of such antibodies in saliva, but also prime the immune system to make them quickly in response to the decay bacterium.

Studies on rats, hamsters and monkeys suggest a vaccine can work. But researchers still must learn more about the human immune system that includes the mouth, which is less well understood than the system that works through the blood. Smith said in a recent interview.

Cavity vaccine research should have spinoffs for other diseases. Smith and Cole said.

The House bill also includes financial aid to governments and employer sanctions, but otherwise differs from the Senate bill. Sanctions and amnesty wcmld begin about the same time; employer recordkeeping would be man^tory; and new anti-<Iiscrimination provisions would prevent bias against aliis in the country legally.

Emotional debates are certain over the timing of amnesty, the necessity of new anti-discrimination language, (^tional record-keeping and the amount of reimbursements to state and local governments.

History has taught that immigra

tion reform measures can stay afloat only with the most delicate balance of special interest support. The slightest addition, deletion, or modification can cause a group to jump ship and possibly sink the legislation.

Its too early to tell, whether a bill will be enacted this year, said Wade Henderson, associate director of the ACLUs Washington office. But he speculated that many are thinking the train is leaving the station and this is the time to cut your deals.

But if Congress doesnt act this year, and illegal immigration continues to rise, there will be a backlash against all immigrants.

said Rodino m an interview,

It will get to the point where we are going to find people saying, Dont let any more in. Ive seen that seqtiment during tours of my district, from many people whose parents migrated here.

He urged President Reagan to get involved because, unless we get ^t kind of support, unless all players are in p ace and playing, were not going to able to do it.

When asked about the stickiest issue so far, those on the front lines of the immi^ation debate cite the ag-ricultural foreign worker provisions.

thirando, of the growers Farm Labor Alliance, said the elimination of a large and mobile foreign work

force would leave his members with rotten crops and Americans without fresh fruits and vegetables.

He wants an immigratim bill to include a generous guest worker pit^m with field hands available to respond quickly to the heat waves or cold snaps that can change harvest times ovemi^t.

Durando acknowledged the groups intensive lobbying effort, but denied reports of wild spending by the growers saying the group has spent much less than $1 million, so far this year.

Rodino, vowing to fight Durandos efforts, said he wouldnt bring the bill up if he thoi^t the growers would win promising, in effect, to

kill his own legislation.

Jane OGrady, legislative representative for the AFL-CIO, added, Legal workers are being over-whelned by growers who say avocados will turn to guacamole and raisins will turn to grapes if the unrestricted supply of foreign workers became unavailable.

Evacuation Study Is Readied

ECU News Bureau

A comprehensive hurricane evacuation study for eastern North Carolina is being prepared and the N.C. Department of lYansportation has prepared estimates on how long it would take to clear the states beaches, officials said in an emergency management seminar at East Carolina University.

Allan E. McDuffie of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Wilmington said the evacuation study is more than 50 percent completed. The Corps of Engineers is coordinating the study with input from many agencies, he said.

Bob Buchanan of Raleigh, representing the N.C. division of emergency management, said the department of transportation estimates of time needed, for beach evacuation are based on a complicated model. Other speakers at the seminar said that countywide authority to order evacuations would eliminate confusion among towns which could result in massive traffic jams on beach roads and highways.

Specifically addressing the pro-blem of hurricanes, McDuffie said North Carolina has been hit by 22 hurricanes since 1900, the third larg

est number of any state. Florida has had 51 and Texas 33.

The most recent hurricane to come ashore in this state, Diana in 1984, was erratic, not a very well-behaved storm and was difficult to predict, McDuffie said. Diana stalled off the southeast North Carolina coast for 48 hours and came ashore as a relatively minor class I hurricane on the Brunswick County beaches.

A model which indicates the sever*-ity of hurricanes on a scale from I to V has been developed, called SLOSH (for Sea, Lake and Overland Surge from Hurricanes), McDuffie said. No category V hurricane has ever been recorded in North Carolina, and the most severe of recent years. Hazel in 1954, was categoiy IV. Category V hurricane have winds in excess of 155 miles per hour, he said.

With a category IV or V hurricane, he said, it is estimated that three-fourths of coastal Carteret County could be inundated and a category V

storm would put all of downtown Washington, N.C., and most of the rest of the town under water, McDuffie said.

Dr. Joe Pellisier of Raleigh, deputy meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico have proved more predictable than Atlantic coast hurricanes and that people in the Gulf states are better able to prepare for them.

Certificates were given to each client completing the month-long rehabilitation program which is a pre-re-entry course in adjustment.

Attending along with the clients were the parole officers, vocational rehabilitation personnel and invited guest$ and volunteers.

Today's Women

The Greenville Jay-C-Ettes will now be known as Todays Women of Greenville, according to a vote by the clubs membership at a recent meeting.

The organization is no longer an auxiliary of the local Jaycees. The decision to change names, say club officials, was in response to recent action by the United States Jaycees prohibiting the use of the Jaycee name by non-Jaycees. The move should in no way be interpreted as a lack of support for the Greenville Jaycees and the ideals they promote, according to Marilyn Dan-ford, clubpresidnt.

The next meeting of Todays Women of Greenville will be held Sept. 11.

Appreciation

A week of appreciation services for Elder Thomas D. Dixon, pastor, will begin today and continue throu^ Saturday at Clemons Grove Hmy Church on Route 1, Stokes.

Each service will begin at 7:30 p.m. An 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. Sunday service will also be held.

Tonights service will be led by Elder Jerome Wilson of Williamston; Tuedays by Elder James W. Lewis of Antioch Church, Bell Arthur; Wednesdays by Elder W.C. Elliott of Saints Rest Church, Winterville; Thursdays by Eldress Doreatha Bernard of Deliverance Church, Ayden; Fridays by a speaker ifrom Holy Church on the Rock, Pactolus. Saturday Elder Dixon will lead communion. Sunday at 3 p.m. Elder Charles Covil of Back to God Deliverance Church will preach.

ATTENTION, UNIDEN* CORDLESS TELEPHONE USERS.

You may be eligible for a free handset modification.

Llniden announcc.s a nationwide program whereby owners of certain I'niden* and Extend-A-Phone* cordless telephones can have their handsets retrolitted w ith new slope ringer circuitry. This modification will make the handset ring signal come on gradually with a reduced overall sound level.

Uniden is offering this free nuidification because of controversy surrounding tlie alleged effects of cordless telephone earpiece ringers. Most older cordless telephone handsets ring through the earpiece, and when such .units are not used in accordance with manufacturers instructions, they may ring directlv into the ear. Some people have complained of alleged hearing impairment associated with such accidental misu.se. Medical authorities are in disagreement as to whether this may affefct hearing, llniden has redesigned its ringer circuitry and, to minimize controversv, is offering to modify certain older handsets by incorporating this improved cifciry and reducing the ringer sound level.

If you own any of the following Uniden* or Extend-A-Phone* models, \xui ma\ have your handset retrofitted with the new "slope ringer circuitry. Check your handset markings to determine whether you have one of the units listed.

Notes Tell JAL Passenger's Final Thoughts

Monday, August 19,196S ^

ByKUMIKOMAKIHARA I Associated Press Writer TOKYO (AP) Minutes before a Japan Air Lines jet crashed into a mountain last week, passenger Hin^sugu Kawaguchi dashed notes across seven pages of a pocket calendar, describing his thoughts as he was about to die, his fanly said Sunday.

Be good to each other and work hard. Help your mother, began Kawaguchi, 52, as most of the 524 people aboard the Boeing 747 scrambled for oxygen masks and life vests.

Im very sad, but Im sure I wont make it. I dont know the reason, Kawaguchi wrote in the notes addressed to his daughters Mariko, 24, and Chiyoko, 17, and his son Tsuyoshi, 21.

" Only four people survived the Aug. 12 crash, the worst single-plane accident ever. Kawaguchi was among the 520 people killed.

Noting that five minutes had passed since the plane went out of control, he continued, I dont want to take any more planes. Please Lord help me.

To think that our dinner last night was the last time, he wrote.

Kawaguchi, who lived in the western city of Kobe because of his wort with a shipping cmnpany there, had boarded the Tokyo-to-Osaka flight after a visit with his family in the Japanese capital.

In a descriptiwi of his surroundings, which investigators called valuable evidence, he wrote, There was smoke that seemed to come from an explosion in the cabin and we began making a descent.

What will happen from here? Kawaguchi asked.

Tsuyoshi, Im counting on you, he wrote to his son.

Mother, to think something like this wmild happen, he penned to his wife. Its too Md. Goodbye. Please

Its 6:30 now, he noted. At about that time, the pilot was messaging he was unable to control the plane, ac-cordiM to Japan Transport Ministry recorob.

llie plane is rolling around and descending rapidly, he described.

Kawaguchis 17i and last sentence was, I am grateful for the truly

happy life I have enjoyed until now.

'ine jumbo jet crashed into a mountain 70 miles northwest of Tokyo.

The notes, shown on Japanese television, were written across the pages of a small appointment calendar. At times the writing was nearly illegible.

Kawaguchis son telei^oned his mother and sisters from the crash site to read the notes, Mrs. Kawaguchi said on television.

Two other victims also wrote down last minute thoughts, it was reported.

Kazuo Yoshimura, 41, an architect, wrote, I want you to be strong, on the back of a company document, said his family, who reported findii^ the bloodstained paper among his belongings.

A 40-year-old businessman wrote on an air-sickness bag to his wife, Osaka (his home state). Mino (his home city,) Machiko, please take care of my children. Masakazu Tani^chi. 6:30. The mans wallet and drivers license were found in the bloodstained bag.

By late Sun^y, 481 bodies had been recovered and the identities of

332 confirmed, said Norie Yoshizawa, spokeswoman for Gun-ma prefecture, or state.

Negotiations for compensation have not yet started, but the company is planning to make initial

-'ip.

payments of 1.5 million yen, about $6,300, to families for each victim for funeral expenses, reported JAL spokesman Yoichi Niizeu.

According to Buddhist customs, a proper burial is necessary for a spirit

to rest in peace. Up to 2,000 family members have traveled to Fujiokh city near Uie crash site to collect remains of their kin.

Some people have walked for four hours to the site.

ly. Virginia Residents Divided Over Union Carbide Problems

: By PAIGE St. JOHN

Associated Press Writer , INSTITUTE, W.Va. (AP) - Union Carbide (>>rp. tort it on the chin fim about 300 Kanawha Valley residents, including an angry Carbide employee, just a day after 400 other residents rallied and cheered for the chemical company.

At a meeting three blocks from a )lant that leaked two toxic chemicals sending 135 people to hospitals, porter Eric Howard accused the cqpipany Sunday of staffing its its with employees untrained to ndle emergencies.

" Even so, he said he was determined to keep his job at a Carbide plant in South Charleston, where a smaller leak Tuesday sent foul odors through parts of Charleston, but no one was mjured.

' I can get another job, but by God, I.cant get another life! But I m not going to quit, Howard shouted at company officials. Im going to be one of the employees making sure youabide by your safety rules.

; On Saturday, 400 Carbide sup-' porters paraded through South Charleston in support of the company, which provides 6,000 of the Jj0,000 chemical industry jobs here.

We were here first, and if anybody doesnt like Union Carbide, they can move out, Carbide employee Warren Pauley said during the -march.

" Edwin Hoffman, an organizer of Sundays 2^-hour meeting, said he did not see a serious split in the community.

- I thou^t the people who went to the parade were a small portion of iCarbide workers in the valley, he ^said. Theyre fearful for their jobs, bat they dont understand you have to Slave safety and jobs. Theirs was just a knee-jerk reaction, from years and generations of conditioning.

- Sundays meeting was sponsored 3&y People Concerned About MIC, a i^group formed after a methyl iso-ijcyanate leak in December from a K^rbide plant killed more than 2,000 people in Bhopal, India.

said safety measures installed after the Bhopal disaster did nothing to help during the poison gas leak at Institute.

Six workers and 129 residents were injured Aug. 11 when a mixture of aldicarb oxime and methylene chloride, both suspected carcinogens, leaked from a temporary storage vessel. It took Carbide officials 20 minutes to notify emergency crews and even longer to identify the chemicals involved.

Valley resident Yolanda Sims said she was unhappy with the notification delay and with changing reports from Carbide as to the natures of the chemicals involved.

We dont need Clarbide to be our friend, she said. I dont like friends that lie to me. I dont like friends that steal frran me... Carbide is stealing our childrens lives.

You want us to be friends. But we never stole anything from you, and youre stealing our lives.

Carbide onginally said aldicarb oxime was a Tow-level irritant, but later acknowledged it as capable of causing cancer, birth defects or even death in high concentrations. The company also said trace amounts of methylene chloride were in the tank, but the Environmental Protection Agency said the vessel contained up to 65 percent of the solvent.

Carbide chemicals and plastics division president Robert D. Kennedy, in rebuttal at the end of the meeting, said the company could be )ressured to move from the valley, )ut he did not think that would solve the safety problem.

I can promise you the moon, but it wouldnt help anything, he said. We could te forced to shut down certain operations, but I dont think that would be right.

Kennedy addcxl that some other company would produce the chemicals if Carbide diont.

He met with Hoffman and other organizers of Sundays meeting for several hours afterward. Hoffman said he was unsure of what reaction Kennedy would take back to Car-

Farm Scene

By PHILLIP ROWAN ! Agricultural Extension Agent

Stockering cattle can provide another option for farmers in Pitt County. Stockering cattle is not new and can consistently make money for a wise cattle producer. Most reports indicate profits about 70-80 percent of the time with stocker cattle. Pitt County has a good potential to Stocker cattle because of the large amount of cover crops planted each fall which can be uti ized for forage. Also, we have many cornfields which can be gleaned by cattle and crop residue for hay is also available.

Traditionally, feeder calf or Stocker calf prices are low in the fall of the year and beef calves can be purchased for a good price. These calves can be fed on forage, cornfields hay, etc., through the winter. Usually, spring brings a stronger market for cattle. With the added weight, profits can be made.

As with all farming, certain management practices should be made to give calves a chance to grow at ttieir best potential. Calves purchased through an auction market should be treated properly. Working

Reports Spur Wave Of Lawsuits From 1979 TMI Accident

By DAN BIERS Associated Press Writer

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - More than six years after Three Mile Island became known for the worst U.S. commercial nuclear accident, area residents are going to court in droves claiming health problems from cancer to AIDS.

Jhe total number of lawsuits filed this year has climbed to well over 1,300. More than 100 were registered last week alone.

.Theres no point in counting them, Dauphin County Judge William Lipsitt said. I counted to 1,000 and then I gave up.

The deluge of suits apparently was triggered by reports in February that injury claims filed in the first years after the March 1979 accident led to at least $3.9 million in settlements, even though the plant did not admit liability.

Since those reports, the court has been swamped by new personal injury claims against plant owner General Public Utilities Corp. of Parsip-pany, N.J., and several other TMI-related corporations.

The suits blame the accident, in which some nuclear fuel melted in the TMI Unit 2 reactor, for causing emotional problems as well as physical ailments.

Lawyers say millions of dollars are t stake in the suits, although the plaintiffs do not say specifically how much money they are seeking in damages.

But more important, according to Some plaintiffs, is the possibility that court trials will shed some light on a nagging question; What was the accidents effect on the health of area residents?

The monetary reasons dont really enter into it for me, said Naomi Livingston, a plaintiff and the wife of the Dauphin County sheriff. I would like to know ... what was releasedKansas Storms Leave One Dead; Flooding In Mid-Atlantic States

cattle does require pens and a headgate. Newly-purchased calves should be vaccinated for IBP/P13, blackleg and malignant edema. They should be dewormed, administered some means of external parasite control and usually given an antibiotic injection. Also, administering a growth implant can increase gains

15-20 percent. On-farm trials have shown an improvement in gains on implanted cattle again and again. Implants can be administered from suckling cattle to feedlot cattle. They should not be used on breeding cattle.

Treating cattle as mention^ above will get them off to a good start and reduce death loss. Also, calves weaned straight off a cow should not be put directly on feed or straight in a lush pasture. Starting these calves on hay and gradually introducing them to feed will prevent enterotoximia.

Farmers interested in more information about stockering cattle can contact the Pitt County A^cul-tural Extension Office. Now is the time to think about purchasing calves to be fed through the winter.

By The Associated Press Heavy thunderstorms whipped up 70 mph winds in Kansas after others smashed trailer parks, killing one man and tossing another 100 feet, flipped planes and turned out lights for 50,000 homes in Michigan as the remains of Danny drenched the mid-Atlantic Coast.

The last remnants of Danny, which did minor damage as a hurricane in Louisiana before spawning tornadoes in Alabama and South C^olina and floo^ng parts of Virginia and North Carolina, was expected to move offshore today.

As Danny moved toward the coast Sunday, it continued to soak parts of North Carolina, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. More than inches of rain fell on Richmond, Va., on Sunday, the National Weather Service said.

Earlier Sunday, thunderstorm winds estimated at 60 to 70 mph buffeted Lakin, Kan., knocking down power lines and road signs and blowing the roof off a trailer. The towns of Ford, Greensburg, Kinsley and Pratt also were hit.

Mrs. Livingston said she wants to know if the accident led to her breast cancer, which required a mastectomy in 1981.

Herman Prosser, 71, of New Cumberland, also filed suit in part to .gain information, he said. He said a doctor told him in 1983 he was loaded with cancer, its all through your bones.

I just figured something went wrong (and) I was part of it, said Prosser. I sort of feel that if (the accident) wouldnt have happened I wouldnt be in the condition I m in.

TMI officials say studies show the accident was not a health menace to local residents. We rely on the experts who have concluded ... that there will be no health effects as a result of the radiation released from the accident, said plant spokesman Gordon Tomb.

Plaintiffs claim the accident caused or increased the risk of gallstone, hair loss, infertility, early puberty, vertigo, tumors and birth defects. One plaintiff said she has acquired immune deficiency syndrome, a fatal disease known as AIDS that mostly strikes homosexual men and is ap^ parently spread by sexual contact.

But one official from an insurance company representing the plant said it gets a little ridiculous to claim ail those ailments were caused by the accident.

We feel that the claims of health problems, if theyre valid, are unrelated to radiation exposure, said Jack Harward, vice president of claims for American Nuclear Insurers, from his Connecticut office.

Some initial information we have about some of the plaintiffs indicates ... they view the accident as opening up some very deep pockets, said Fred Speaker, an attorney for the insurance company.

NIAGARA FALLS, Ontario (AP) A daredevil who walked away from his plunge over Niagara Falls in a barrel with only a cut said the 176-foot fall was like the best roller-coaster ride you had when you were a 10-year-old. ^

Steven T. Trotter, 22, of Barrington, R.I., faces arraignment Aug. 28 in Ontario Provincial Court and a maximum fine of $500 on a charge of performing an illegal stunt.

He may also be charged by American authorities because he is believed to have launched his barrel on the U.S. side of the Niagara River before plunging Sunday over the 176-foot Horseshoe Falls.

Lying inside two Greek pickle barrels placed end-to-end and surrounded by giant inner tubes, Trotter became the seventh known person to plunge over the falls and survive. He received only a cut on his arm, said Niagara Parks Police Constable J(rim Clark.

After the fall, Trotter emerged from the hatch of his barrel and waved to us to let us know he was all right, said Clark. He was examined at Greater Niagara General Hospital.

Trotter, who described the trip as like the best roller-coaster ride you had when you were a 10-year-old and like being on an elevator with no cable, said he had dreamed of such a feat since he was a child.

He said his grandfather, who worked for Bethlehem Steel in a job he didnt like, inspired him. He said, Tf you have a dream, do your dream and do it up right, Trotter said.

Clark said at least 10 people and two film crews witnessed lYotters )lunge from Terrapin Point in the )arrel, which was equipped with two two-way radios and two oxygen tanks. I

Trotter, who works as a bartender in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., six months out of the year, said he had worked on the plan with the help of engineers and manufacturers for five years. He said he spent about $6,200 making the

16-foot-long by six-foot-high barrel.

Inside, Trotter said, was padding normally used to transport nuclear warheads.

He said the feat was the last waterfall stunt he would perform. I did the falls. Thats enough.

I did it because a Northeastemer doesnt have a chance to get recognition as a stuntman, he said, recalling how a student at the Kahana

Meanwhile, emergency officials in Alabama walked along the multimillion-dollar trail of destruction left by 24 tornadoes spawned by Danny, and tornado victims returned to their shattered homes in Spartanburg, S.C. 1

On Saturday, a 55-year-old man was killed when winds that destroyed 13 mobile homes and damaged 30 others smashed his trailer near Emporia, Kan., said Lyon County sheriffs Deputy Ron Petersen.

Near Olpe, Kan., 22-year-old Jeff Adams said he was tossed into a creek more than 100 yards from his mobile home, fracturing his shoulder. Adams said he felt the trailer jump up about three feet and it started rolling. Then it just blew apart. A witness said the trailer looked like it had been blown up by a thousand sticks of dynamite.

The storms dumped heavy rain and golfball-sized hail in parts of Kansas

and sparked a tornado that destroyed a farmhouse. No one was injured.

In Alabama, where a series of twisters Friday was blamed fw two deaths, early estimates were about $3 million damage in (Pullman County and nearly $1.4 million in the smaU mining town of Parrish in Walker County, authorities said.

In Parrish, Betty Lollar, whose Western Auto store was destroyed, spent the weekend looking for undamaged merchandise and marvd-ing that she survived.

In Spartanburg, tornado victims, some bandaged and bruised, returned to their mobile homes Sunday while the Red Cross sought shelter for dozens left homeless. The tornado cut an irregular path three miles long Saturday and struck three trailer parks, injuring 35 people.

Counselors Say College Is A Shock As Freshmen Leave Old Securities

WINSTON-SALEM (AP) - As they leave for college in the coming weeks, North Carolina college freshmen arent just leaving their homes - theyre often leaving their friends and other securities behind, counselors say.

Theyve never had to make so many decisions to get through the day or the week in their whole lives as they must in the first six weeks of college, said Brian Austin, assistant vice president of counseling at Wake Forest University.

Its starting all over, he said. They are scared and excited. A lot of them dont get the butterflies out of their stomachs until about three weeks after theyve arrived.

Paige French, dean of admissions at Salem College, said one symptom of being a freshman is becoming

homesick.

Many students feel the shock of being away from their families for the first time, Ms. French said. Theyve left a network of support that includes family, old friends and sometimes their steady boyfriends. Austin said there is a lot more to homesickness than just missing families and friends.

A lot of homesickness has to do with missing the structure and guidance that were a part of their lives, he said. They miss the regularity, the predictability of life.

Freshmen also miss high school, Austin said, not because it was easier but because it was a sign of easier times.

Students who are feeli^ too much anxiety should talk their problems out, said Donald Benson, vice

chancellor of student affairs at Winston-Salem State University. Advisers, peer counselors, residence advisors or chaplains, all are available and are trained to help freshmen.

Benson said one of the biggest problems students have is getting their priorities straight. For many it takes some time, or at least until their first grades get home.

College is an academic community first; it is social second, Benson said. Emphasis has to be placed on the academic. Students have to learn good study habits and how to make good decisions. Students must make sacrifices in order to learn. Its hard to see friends going out to a party when you need to study.

Some students just arent ready for the diversity of people that they will

meet in college, Ms. French said. Some havent traveled much and for the first time they will be meeting people from other parts of the country and world.

Getting used to a roommate is another major adjustment.

Give it time. Your first impression may not be a lasting one. When problems come up, talk to your roommate, Ms. F^nch said. Try to work out ie differences between the two of you. If it wont work out, go together to the dean and thlk it out. Austin thinks the adjustment to campus life is better if students stay on campus until Thanksgiving.

They need to develop friendships, get involved, see college as their second home, he said. If they leave every weekend, they miss the outside experiences.

Effect Of BW Drug On Preventing Spread of AIDS Virus Is Studied

WINSTON-SALEM (AP) -Researchers at Duke University are testing a drug that has been shown in test tubes to prevent the virus that causes AIDS from multiplying, officials say.

The drug, code-named Drug S, was developed by the Burroughs Wellcome Co. of Research Triangle Park. Duke is serving as one of two testing sites for the drug. The other is the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Md.

Duke immunolgist Kent Weinhold said his department is starting a major research project on AIDS, with the main emphasis on producing an AIDS vaccine. That research is being coordinated with the National Institutes of Health and the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Md., Weinhold said.

Fewer than 12,500 cases of AIDS have been reported nationwide, according to the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta. But researchers estimate that 25,000 to 250,000 people have the disease, which takes from six months to five years to show its symptoms.

Dr. Sandra Nusinoff Lehrman of

Burroughs Wellcome said that 18 iw-tients idtimately will be tested with Drug S, although only four patients are being tested now.

The ^gs effect on test-tube cultures of HTLVIII was discovered by researchers at Duke and NCI almost simultaneously in February, Weinhold said. Test on humans began in July, Ms. Lehrman said. She said that researchers will see whether humans can tolerate the drug before trying to gauge its effect on HTLV-III iirfections.

If Drug S does prevent HTLV-lII from multiplying in humans, Ms. Lehrman said, that does not necessarily mean it will cure the disease. Weinhold said even if Drug S fulfills all the researchers hopes, it may not help someone who already has AIDS.

liie AIDS virus works by crippling the immune system within the bloodstream, allowing other fprms of disease to run rampant, Weinhold said. Doctors have tried to rebuild the crippled immune systems through bone-marrow transfusions, but the AIDS virus simply wiped out the new supply of healthy cells, Weinhold said.

If it proves to be effective. Drug S could be used in the very early stage of an HTLV-III infection to kill the virus before it destroys the patients immune system, Weinhold said.

Duke is one of three North Carolina institutions doing AIDS research. The others are the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the Bowman Gray School of Medicine.

Doctors say the researchers at the three institutions are moving into AIDS research in part because it offers valuable insights into the way humans fight disease. They also say they are concerned by the rapid increase in AIDS cases across the country.

Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are also experimenting with the virus, which is called HTLV-III. They also are probing its relationship to the Epstein-Barr virus, which causes mononucleosis and a form of cancer.

At the Bowman Gray School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, researchers are doing projects that are applicable to problems with the immune system, although none are directly related to AIDS, said Dr.

Aldicarb Worries Officials

RALEIGH (AP) - A pesticide commonly used on North Carolina crops is related to but 700 times more toxic than poisonous gases that killed 2,000 people in India and sent 135 people to the hospital in West Virginia, officials say.

llie chemical, called Aldicarb, is made by combining aldicarb oxime, which leaked out of a Union Carbide plant in Institute, W.Va., last week, and methyl isocyanate, which leaked out of another U iion Carbide plant in Bhopal, India, in December, officials say.

Aldicarb is manaufa'^tured under the trade name Temik by Union Carbide and is widely used to kill nematodes and insects on peanuts, potatoes, tobacco, soybeans and other North Carolina crops, officials said. But aldicarb, which is applied directly to the soil, has come under increasing fire for problems under the ground as wll as in the air.

Six years ago, scientists discovered high aldicarb levels in groundwater in Suffolk County, N.Y. A study found higher-than-expected rates of spontaneous abortions and adult neurological problems, and the

pesticide was banned m the county.

Union Carbide spokeswoman Mary Ann Ford said the company pulled the chemical from the Long Island market because it had leached into some well water. Although there werent any health effects at the levels found in the water, the chemical is toxic in higher levels, she said.

The author of the study later said his data was unreliable, Ms. Ford added, because researchers didnt know if women who had spontaneous abortions had been in contact with the chemical.

Some groundwater contamination has been reported in 15 states, including North Carolina. Some of the worst was in Wisconsin, where aldicarb levels that ranged from 1 part per billion to 111 ppb were found. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recommends no more than 10 ppb.

More than 200 people on the West Coast became seriously ill after eating aldicarb-tainted watermelons.

A ban on Temik would be a major loss for growers in North Carolina and throughout the country, NCSU plant pathologist Kenneth Barker

said in a recent interview.

But Norfleet L. Sugg, exeuctive secretary of the North Carolina Peanut Growers Association, said, The Temik stories bother us, but we have to be realistic. If we have to change, well change.

Amounts of Temik sold in North Carolina are impossible to track because of trade-secret protection, but agriculture experts say the pesticide is used on up to 90 percent of the states cotton and peanut acerage.

Dr. Donald Schmitt, a North Carolina State University plant pathologist, estimated North Carolina farmers use 5 million pounds a year of Temik on soybeans alone.

The latest word on aldicarb in North Carolina is in a federal lawsuit a .former state Department of Agriculture pesticide specialist filed last year. Erick G. Umstead charged that, after 3'/2 years on the job, he was fired for being too vocal in his concerns about tests that measured aldicarb levels of 28 ppb in two Scotland County wells in 1982.
