The agency said in an English-language report that the ship sank on the night of August 31, but did not say precisely when. . ^

It quoted the Communist Party Central Committee and the Sovie't government as saying the Admiral Nakhimov collided with a cargo ship not far frwn Novorossiysk.

Novorossiysk is a port city on the Black Sea.

There was no word on the fate of the freighter or any other details of the accident.

The necessary assistance is render^ to those affected, Tass said. mere nas oeen ioss of life. Tass added that a government commission was formed to investigate the sinking and that it is to be headed by Geidar Aliev, a first deputy prime minister and member of the ruling Politburo.

Early today the depression was centered about 1,100 miles east of the Lesser Antilles, a string of islands just north of South America, according to the National Hurricane Center.

The depression was moving west at about 15 mph and little change in direction speed was expected through today. It organized from a tr^ical wave that moved off the African coast several days ago.

Its going to be extremely difficult to determine if there were any deaths in the homes, Los Angeles County sheriffs spokesman Dave Tdlez said early today. The problem is that its a three<lay weekend and some of these people might have been away.... There are still body parts in

homes room 1^ room, looking for bodies and making sure no survivors were trapped inside.

Aout to 30 families dispiad by the crash were sent by the Red Ooss to hotels or went to stay with relatives.

We are staying with these people ... we have counsdors with ttan ... seeing them through the psycholoj^' trauma, said Red Cross spokesman Ralph Wri^t.

Witnesses said they saw the smaller plane crash into the tail section of the jetliner. Though there was no xact nationality breakdown available, the passengers were described by Aeromexico (Mdate as a mixture of Mexico natiomils and Ui. tourists, including at least one infant and seven children.

It was the worst air disaster in the history of the Los Angeles airport and the wWst U.S. air crash since 137 people were killed Aug. 2,1985, when a Delta Airlines L-lOll TriStar bound from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to Los Angeles crashed on landing at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.

It was also the second majw accident of a Mexican commercial' airliner this year.

The Federal Aviation Administration said the smaller craft was flying under visual flight niles and was not

und direct radio control when the planes collided.

The congested airspace over Southern CalifcMnia, where uncixi-trolled, low-speed private planes mingle with hi^-speied cdnn^ial jetliners, has long been considod a major problem area, according to

John Galipault, director of the Aviation Safefy Institute in Worthington, Ohio. Tea neighborhood residents suffered minor injuries, said sheriffs spokesman Tellez. Five firefighters and a sheriffs deputy were treated at hosjHtals for minor injuries.

Two men were arrested in the 10-blo(d[-square cordoned-off area, one

Function Is Important Floor Attraction

From BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS A Mm^th Magazine

Putting the right kind of flooring at your feet involves more than finding a pretty pattern.

Although the fashion factor is important, function is eqiMy so, notes Better Homes and Gardmis decorating magazine. But to get what you want to you have to know what you want, and that calls for some practical analysis. How many hours can you spare fw ui^eep? Vlhat style of furniture do you have? How much will you consider spending?

Ciurpet and rugs are the frmit-runners in the area of floiuing comfort. Bieyre durable and easy to clean, and they offer cozy warmth and sound control.

Whmi decidii^ on color, consider vdiere the flooring will be used. In a high-traffic area, you may want a cvpet that will n(g show soU. A blend of odors will show soil the least and will require the least care.

Be sure, also, to check for density. Dense caipets with tightly packed yarns and closely woven backing will wear the best and look good longer. To test for density, simply bend a {dm of the carpet backward. If it grins, or shows a lot (rf backing . throu^ the pile, it probably will not wear well.

The fiber content also will determine how well the carj^t will perform. Basically, foir majw synthetic fibors and being used; nyhn, acrylic, polyesto* and olefins. Under the category of natural fibers, wool is the

most popular (^(mi. Although wool carpets wear well and have a warm, natural feel, they are much more ex-sive than carpets of synthetic

pensivi

fibers.

Read carpet and rug labels carefully. The label should include the name of the manufacturer and the exact types sf Hbcrs used. If fibmrs have bkn combined, the it>-portions ai the blaid must be given. Take note, also, of care instructions and any finishing treatments, such as stain retardant or mothproofing.

A piqxilar clHHce fin* kitchen and bath, resilient floiniiig comes in vinyl, rubber, cork and asidialt. Each of these options is availble in two forms - tile and sheet goods.

The two most popi^r types of tiles are solid vinyl and vinyl composition. Solid vinyl tiles are topH>f-the-line materials.

Vinyl composition tiles combine vinyl resins with filler materials. They are moderately priced, yet long wearing and resistant to scuffing, burns, ^nts and gre^.

Sheet goods come in standard widths of 6, 9 and 12 feet, and can give you a seamless wall-to-wall effect.

Today, two kinds of sheet flooring are made: inlaid and rotovinyl. Inlaid vinyls are made of solid v^, built up, layer by layer. Inhermy thick and soft, some inlaid vinyls have extra layers of foam to provide added comfort underfoot. The colors and patterns dont wear <rff because they go all the way through the material to the backing.

Rotovinyl floM' coverings are pro

duced by a process that combines photography with printing. The Mo^l^y allows realistic simulation of nmterials such as stone, brick, slate and wood. Once the image is printed, a layer of clear vinyl (* polyurethane goes on top.

The beauty of a hard-surface, or ncnresBient noori!** is the extra instaiiation cdf%rt it requires. Clay tile, marble, slate and terrazzo are especially appropriate in areas such as foyers, where the ^ringy comfort of resilience is not critical.

Hardwood floors have grown so' much in pqnilarity in recent years that theyre practically the status bol that V

symbol that waU-to-wall carpet once was.

Wood flooring is graded by appearance, not by its strength or durability. The highest grades show the fewest natural imperfections. But, the lowest grade, least expensive hardwood floor will ufrioubtedly be as structurally sound and as durable as the highest grade.

Greenvilles current city council is Ipded by Mayor Leslie H. Garner, t^ouncil members include William J. Hadden Jr., who also serves as mayor pro tern, Janice B. Buck, Edward E. Carter, Inez Fridlev, Nancy M. Jenkins and Lorraine G. aninn.

'Abby Repeats Column From Five Years Ago

>re8byteriai Webb room, Elm Street m. Lodge No. 885 Loyal Order

DEAR ABBY: I iust read an article in the Los Angeles Times stating that men who wear tight underwear greatly decrease their chances for mthenng children. It rang a bell with me. Im sure you wrote a whole column about this about five years ago. Please run it again. It was great. H.S.INL.A.

DEAR H.S.: I did. And here it is:

DEAR ABBY: I read with interest the letter from Childless Couple, who were considering artificial insemination. This may help:

For four years my wife and I tried without success to have a child. We were both tested. She was fine, but the doctor said that because my sperm count was so low, my chances for fathering a child were slim. Thats when we considered artificial insemination.

I saw a fertility specialist. He asked me what kind of shorts I wore. I told him I had worn jockey shorts for years. He suggested that I switch to boxer shorts, the loose fitting kind, instead of the snugly fitting jockey type. When he explained why, 1 thought he was crazy, but I took his

DEAR FUTURE: When I read your letter, I laughed and threw it into my wastebasket. But I quit laughing (and quickly retrieved your letter) after reading several more bearing the same incredible message!

Read on for a short story that may help some for whom pregnancy is inconceivable:

DEAR ABBY: I just hung up from a long-distance call that I must share with you. When I answered my phone, the fellow on the other end said, Dick, Im calling to thank you. My wife is pregnant!

I realized instantly what he meant. Early in February, while I was interviewing him for a story, I had asked routinely if he had any children.

No, he replied, but my wife and I have been trying for a long time. So I quipped, You have got to quit wearing jockey shorts.

f hat broke him up, of course, and after admitting that he did wear jockey shorts, he asked what his shorts had to do with it.

I said he had obviously missed the Dear Abby column in The Cleveland Plain Dealer in which you stated that jockey shorts reduced a mans sperm count.

I promised to send him a clip of your column, and he said that whue it sounded a bit cra^, he and his wife were desperate enough to try almost anything.

In his call today, be said that when his wife learned she was pregnant, they counted back and found that she conceived a numth after be switdied to boxer shorts! He also said if they have a baby girl, they may name her Abby. - DKJK ELLERS, REPORTER

DEAR ABBY: I recently read an article in a medical journal stating that if men continue to wear jockey shorts and tight jeans, the need for artificial insemination will increase drastically!

created so that the testicles draw close to the body in cold weather and drop in hot weather. It is a natural thermostat at work. Interference with this causes a serious drop in sperm. The article indicated that American men have increasingly lower sperm counts, and the problem is compounded by the wearing of tight clothing. For population control throu^t me world, wouldnt it be a great idea to export tight jeans?B. McG.INSANDffiGO

Mugabe Calls On West To Knock Out Apartheid

HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) Prime Minister Robert Mugabe today opened the sununit of non-aligned nations by ur^ the United States and other Weseiu uations to agTM to tough economic sanctions agahist South Africa to protest apartheid.

; In a keynote address to the eighth summit of the lOl-member non-aligned movement, Mugabe called apartheid a system that denies our common humanity.

; Mugabe said part of the effort against apartheid should be pressing the key industrial countries, particularly the government of the united Kingdom, (West) Germany, Japan and the present United States administration, to a^ee to the imposition of comprehensive, mandatory sanctions. rMugabe, the movements new chairman, opened the summit in the fiag-bedecked haU fUled with about 59 heads of state or government, and vice presidents and Cabinet ministers from other countries. TThree revolutionary leaders received warm applause - Palestine Liberation Organization Chairman Yasser Arafat and presidents Fidel Castro of Cuba and Samora Machel (^Mozambique.

*:in waving acknowledgement, ^afat revealed a holster^ pistol under his suit.

' This summit of the 25-year-old movement has been bUled as a bid to focus world attention on apartheid and mobilize te efforts of non-aligned nations to bring down SuuUi Africas white-led government.

In South Africa, apartheid establishes a racially segregated society in which the 24 million black majority has no vote in national affairs. The 5 million whites control the economy and maintain separate districts, schools and health services.

Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gan-dhij the movements outgoing chairman, said that in Zimbabwe we are face to face with the basic issues of freedom and human rights in our time.

We are within earshot of South Africa and Namibia, where the fighters of freedom are hunted and harassed, persecuted and punished, exiled and executed, Gandm said.

Mugabe urged member nations to increase the nature and amount of concrete material assistance we render to the liberation movements of South Africa and Namibia, the South African-controlled territory also known as South-West Africa.

He also suggested that a team of foreign ministers from the non-aligned movement visit key industrial nations to seek adoption of sanctions.

Comprehensive, mandatory

sanctions are the only effective, ^ceful means left to force South Africa to dismantle apartheid, stop its naked acts of aggression and tenninatc its illegal occupation of Namibia, Mugabe said.

Mugabe sharpl criticized the United States for its su^rt for rebels fighting the leftist Andinista government in Nicaragua and for its April 15 air raid on Ubya.

Though he did not name the Soviet Union or Vietnam, Mugabe urged the speedy end of foreign intervention in Af^nistanwhere an estimated 115,000 Soviet soldiers help the Marxist government fight a Moslem insurgency and in Cambodia, which is occupied by Vietnamese troops.

Monday. SpfmbT 1.1966 3Gadhafi Calls U.S. 'New Nazi Empire'

By KERIN HPE Aisociated Press Writer TRIPOU, Ubya (AP) - Col. Moammar Gadhafi marked todays 17th anniversaiy of his rise to power by branding msident Reagans administraticm a new Nazi empire and Reagan himself a second-rate actor ana a madman, and threatening to form an international army to fight America worldwide.

The Ubyan leader later reviewed a l%4iour military parade through central Tripoli by more than 18,000 troops who jogged in battle dress under a hot sun.

It was part of daylong Revolutim Day celebrati<ms on the anniversary of the Gadhafi-led military coup Uiat ousted ^ Idris on Sept. 1,1969.

Wearing a camouflage uniform and a maroon beret, the 44-year-old Gadhafi smiled and gave a clen-ched-fist salute as 200 young women soldiers weari^ high-heeled shoes with their fatigues marched past him.

He arrived in a right red Cadillac cimvertible. On the reviewing stand, he hugged visiting East bloc, Palestinian and African officials, but did not speak.

In a three-hour speech to about 5,000 people in central Green Square early today, Gadhafi praised the Soviet Union, saying it stood by its responsibilities toward Ubya and lashed out at Reagan.

He d^cribed ^agan as a madman. physicallyandpsychorogically sick^ and said: Its a problem for democracy that an actor can become a president. He should go back to HoUywood.

Reagan must read history, Gadhafi said. But Reagan does not read history, he reads cheap Hollywood scenarios. This is the worlds problem now, that a second-rate actor should become the presi-drat of the greatest power. >

Army marksmen lined roofl and balconies during the para_., which featured Soviet-made tanksi Scud and SAM-5 missiles and drum and bagpipe military bands. Four MICK21 jecs screeched overhead to mark parade end.

Thousands of Tripoli residents turned out with flags and Gadhafi portraits.

In a speech that began Sunday night and ended early today, Gadhafi said he was ready to die as a martyr and coinpar^ hiself with the late Chilean msident Salvadora Allende and slain Latin American revolu-. tionary Ernesto Che Guevara.

At Sunday midnight, ships in Tripolis festively lit harbor sounded sirens to greet Revolution Day.

If Reagan doesnt stop his stupidities 1 will form an international army to fight America everywhere and Im sure that in a few years the world will be rid of this Nazi empire, Gadhafi said.

He said such a force would consist of tens of thousands of fighters ^awn from Central America, Africa and Asia.

It was Gadhafis first speech in the capital since U.S. w^lanes bombed Ubya on April 15. His harsh rhetoric surprised observers. In recent months, Ubya has muted its criticism of America.

Gadhafi said Ubya would deploy men and women in every house in

TRACING THE PAIN

A patient has an excruciating pain in his mouth. He thinks he knows exactly where it comes from. He naturally expects the dentist to treat the bad tooth and send him on his way.

Unfortunately, its not always that simple. Finding the source of the pain can be more of a problem than you think. Because there are so many nerves around the mouth, the pain impulse may get jumbled on its way to the brain. Often, the discomfort seems to come from an

area some distance from its real source. This phenomenon is known as referred pain.

Pain from a bad tooth can seem to arise in front or behind it, or even from the opposite jaw! Rather than rush in and treat the su^ected cause of the pain, 1 will probably perform a few tests to be sure. Be patient. Pain is fickle. I want you to be free of all pail). However, 1 also want to be very sure that I treat the problem at its source AS WELL as making you comfortable.

Age Change

Raising the drinking age to 21 today will ctlange some things, but it wont keep teen-agers from drinking.

Granted, it may change where they drink but it likely wont change how much.

Instead of going downtown or to bars and restaurants, they will likely ride around in cars and drink a situation the law is designed to eliminate.

Greenville, with a hefty population of 19- to 20-year-olds at East Carolina University, can expect some impact from the new law. Attendance at bars will decrease. Private parties will increase and fraternity and sorority membership will rise. Those are the changes the community can expect.

The new drinking age will be especially tough on those who have have been drinking legally and now cannot. The change has them understandably confused and that group will likely continue drinking despite the legalities.

Another irony about the law is that if a teen-ager is caught drinking, the violation amounts to nothing more than a wrist-slapping. There is no permanent record of the iiifractiun.

If a friend is caught buying him beer, however, the penalty is stiff and the violation is recorded. If a clerk > or bartender sells an underager alcohol, the penalty is likewise very tough. The law puts owners of nightclubs in a much more precarious position than youthful drinkers.

Despite what ECU dormitory officials say about enforcing the new drinking age in the dorms, after today 19 and 20-year-olds will do more drinking in their dorm rooms with friends buying them beer and wine.

It should be pointed out that not all 19- and 20-year-olds are drinkers and that not all of those who imbibe are irresponsible drinkers. The number of people actually prevented from drinking by the change will be few; the impact on nightclubs and areas like downtown Greenville will be felt much more.

Nixon Urges Caution Over Gorbachev

WASHINGTON Former Presi-Richard Nixon has sent an eyes-only memorandum to President in that described Soviet leader iil Gorbachev as tar and away the most effective, resourceful and dangerous antagonist the U.S. has ever had in the Soviet hierarchy.

Coming from an American regarded as no mean master of the poUtical trade, Nixons analysis of Gorbachev warns Reag^ to be extremely cautious in dealing with him on nuclear arms control Nixons conversation with Gorbachev in July was one of the longest any Westerner has had.

Comparing Gorbachev to Nikita Khrushchev, also well-known to Nixon as a result of the famed *kitchen debate, Nixon says that Khrushchev was quicker and seemed

meaner. But Gorbachev, deeper, wilier and more intelligent, is a far more dangerous adversary in Nixons view.

Despite heavy pressure. President Reagans former national security adviser, Robert C. (Bud) McFarlane, refused to si^ the talking raper sent to Secretaiy of State Geiorge Shultz on Aug. 1 by high national security officials of three former administrations.

McFarlane, who left the White House last December an^ over unfounded White House-leaked rumors about his personal life, was strongly urged by other signers to join the nuclear arms policy paper to Shultz. They included former Secretaries of Defense Melvin Laird, Harold Brown and James Schlesinger, former Sec

retary 01 State Cyrus Vance and former national security aide - and McFarlane intimate - Brent Scowcroft.

Tte message to Shultz recommended a ban on testing space-based weapons for 10 years and adherence to ceilings on long-range nuclear weapons set by the unratified 1979 SALT treaty. McFarlanes agreement on these proposals would have been a body blow to Reagans Strategic Defense Initiative, but one insider thinks McFarlanes decision not to go along was a close one.

Partly to demonstrate national support for Rep. Jack Kemp, about 70 of his key presidential supporters from across the country met secretly last month at a hotel outside OHare Airport in Chicago.

Schools

On Tuesday 16,500 students will be returning to Pitt County schools for the beginning of the 1986-87 school year. They will join teachers, adminstrators and support staff who have been on the job preparing for the school year.

It is a unique year for the Pitt County school system. For the first time it is formally operating as a merged system including the county schools and the former Greenville city schools.

For individual schools the effects of the merger will not be so noticeable on opening day. Administratively, broad changes have taken place. There has been a reorganization of personnel and the hew staff has been becoming familiar with both systems. The reorganization has meant that funds have been made available for much needed capital improvements, some of which are already under way.

All that promises to build a more efficient system which should lead to a higher quality of education for Pitt County.

More immediately, the quality of education de-pends on the dedication of teachers and staff and how seriously students take the learning opportunities available to them. A lot of knowledge is required to cope in this modern world. The needed knowledge can be obtained through our public schools. To obtain it only requires desire.

Candidate, Or Senator?

SHEBORO - When Jim Broyhill was appointed to complete the U.S. Senate term of the late Sen. John East, reporters asked him the obvious question: Would incumbency help his campaign to win that seat for aiienn?

Broyhill is reported to have reacted very defensively to that question saying politics will have to come second, the job comes first. He says incumbency will not help or hurt tus campaign. If he does a good job as senator people will recognize that,he says.

Out on the campaign stunm, however, it is apparent that the Broyhill ipaign has decided that their ate will benefit as a candidate if he is seen as a senator hard at work.

During the first week of the August congressional recess, prime cam

paign time for Broyhill. the candidate put himself on a break-n^ schedule of senatorial appearances. In city after city Broyhill appeared at civic functions and town meetir not as the candidate but as senator.

Doug Haynes, Broyhills campaign press secretary, says the senator has drawn a wide une between campaign and official appearances. At official appearances, Haynes said, Broyhills spe^hes focus on Washington happenings, not on the campaign. At these events, he w<mt even answer campaign questions from the podium.

In his official appearances, Broyhill is accompanied by his government staff. At campai^i appearances, his campaign staff takes over. Haynes said the campaign staff does not publicize the official events and viceversa.

But two months before an election, how do you draw the line between an incumbent and a candidate?

When Broyhill told the North Ralei^ Rotary Club that he didnt think tiigher taxes would eliminate the deficit, was he reporting Washington happenings or was he trying to assure 75 influential Ralei^ businessmen that hes their kind of candidate?

New Rating Simplifies Labels

WASHINGTON - Until Executive Editor Ben Bradlee recently told them to cut it out, reporters for The WdsliiiiKluii Fu!>1 wcie iuciiliryiiig North Carolinas senior senator as the archqonservative Jesse Helms. On the other side of the street. Human Events, a conser-vativ weekly, was sneering at the senior senator from Massachusetts as the ultraliberal Edward Kennedy.

Over the past 30 or 40 years the terminology of politics has changed. We still go through the ritual of R-N.C. and D-Mass., but except on the most partisan issues the labels of Republican and Democrat have lost their meaning. More information is conveyed by conservative and liberal, even if the terms defy exact definition. We know one when we see one.

But whats with this arch business? Whos an ultra? Its reasonable to assume that political ideology, like gasoline, comes in grades. Some liberals have higher octane ratings than other liberals. Some conservatives are more combustible than others. For a long time a need has existed for some reasonably objective, empirical way putting a notice on the pump. Reporten are not supposed to taro

their stories with their own opinions.

Help is now at hand. Two enterprising Washingtonians, Thomas 0.

mxiisia aim oucaiuic i iiiiciuiig, iiav*

just published a two-volume edition of congressional ratings. They have reproduced the scorecards of 60 organizations ranging from the rela-. tively small American Bakers Association to the giant AFLdO. From this mass of data, covering hundreds of roUcall votes, a Mint system easily could be devisea for quantifying liberals and conservatives in Congress. The system would prevent 'The Posts re^rters from injecting their own prejudices into the news columns, a terrible thing to do to reporters for The Washington Post.

Whos the archest of them all? A sampling of senatorial scorecards may be instructive. On the liberal side of the aisle Senator Kennedy is a clear winner. In the books of 32 major organizations he finished first no fewer than 16 times. Metzenbaum of Ohio was almost as arch, with 13 perfect scores. They were followed ultras - Sarbanes of Maryliiid, Levin and Riegle of Michigan, Pell of Rhode Island, Cranston of California, Hart of Colorado, Dodd of Connecticut and of New Mexico. Two

supers made the cut (Matsunaga of Hawaii and Lautenberg of New Jersey). Glenn of Ohio and Bradley

of New Jersev nnajifieH OjirHpn

variety liberals.All the rest were also-rans.

It will disappoint my friends at The Post, but Jesse Helmis is not the archest conservative. In 1964 he was edged in the 32 scorecards, 15 to 14, by Symms of Idaho. Two other western Republicans, Hatch of Utah andMcClure of Idaho, won super ratings. Hecht of Nevada, Laixalt of Nevada, Garn of Utah and Humphrey of New Hampshire showed great promise. Nickles of Oklahoma could qualify as a superconservative next year.

U)ngevity counts in these calculations, so Helms and Kennedy, by reason of their senatorial service, probably have earned whatever quantifying prefix the classifiers may want to award them. Kennedy has garnered most of his 100 octane ratings from organized labor. He racked up perfect scores from the American Federation of Government Employees, the Postal Workers Union, the International Association of Machinists, the United Auto Workers, the Steelworkers and the Food and Commercial Workers. The Brotherhood of RaUway and Airline

Clerks reported that during his career in tne Senate, Kennedy has voted on 131 issues of critical impor-

tanpp to lAhnr; hp has vntMl right 194

times, wrong only seven. For his part. Helms was found to have voted right four times and wrong 102 times. The figures should make both gentlemen quietly proud.

Contrariwise, the American Conservative Union gave Helms a 100 and Kennedy a zero. Americans for Constitutional Action made the same book: Helms 100, Kennedy zero. So, too, with the Conservative Alliance. Kennedy is the 100 percent darling of the League of Women Voters, the National Association of Social Workers, the National Council of Senior Citizens and the American Association of University Women. Helms gets a satisfying zero from them all.

The two volumes are priced at $115, but for those who play political hardball they mo-vide some splendid ammunition, ^e publisher is Quadriga Research Inc., 1120 Connecticut Ave., Washington, D.C. 20036.

Newt Gingrich of Georgiq and Vin Webber of lunnesota and state party leaders including South Dakota State Chairman Joel Rosenthal, National Committeewoman Penny Pullen of nhnois and Connecticuts House Majority Whip Bob Franks.

1m Kemp backers were cheered by the report on his prospects in New Hampshires first-in-the-nation primary. But they left Chicago wondering whether he could survive the earher Michigan and Iowa caucuses, where Kemp now runs third and forth, respectively.

hands with just about everyone who attended his official town meeting, was he the senator or the candidate?

Officially, Broyhill says these duties are hurting the campaign. In an interview with Asheboro area reporters and again in Mocksviue me next day, Broyli^ said these senatorial functions do take away from my campaign time, they do take away from the days and hours that I shoidd be out meeting new people, helping get my campaign organized.

But these functions perform the same purpose as camjiiaign appear-ances.^y bring out tne local media which puts his name, thoughts and face in the paper and on the tube. They even open otherwise closed doors. Had Broyhill not been a senator, its unlikely he would have been invited to speak to the Rotary Club. Civic groups generally prohibit political speeches but do mvite incumbent officials to give non-partisan reports.

The appearances may have a downside. Added to Broyhills unavoidable campaign duties, they create a physically draining schedi-ule.

Broyhill himself mentioned that the town meetings, where questions are taken from the floor, open Mm up to tough public questioning.

And finally, the division of duties between campaign and Washington staffs can create mix-ups. Speculation after the Asheboro meeting, where only 35 people showed up in an area known for its Republican zeal, was that the Washington staff failed to turn out the crowd.

Two months before an election, its impossible to separate the candidate from the incumbent. Broyhill can say ihai hes doing it, but no one is required to believe it.

Romney 25 years ago and now lives in North Carolina. A few days after coming on board, Devries wrote Lucass acceptance speech to the state Republican convention.

Non-signing candidates, says Norquist, will be highly publicized. Given strong anti-tax sentiment across tl|e country, that may produce a heavy percentage of signers and thwart a movement that has already started to retain the higher first-year rates in the reform biU certain to be passed when Congress returns from the Labor Day recess.

Democrats: Join The Rush To Run

of the post-

By DONALD M. ROTHBERG AP PoUtical Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) - Gary Hart is stocking up on beef. Joe Biden is grilling a Cabinet member one week, a Supreme Court justice the next. Mario Cuomo has been preoccupied witBwho will be lieutenant governor of New York and Lee lacocca is saying, no, no, no.

And they are only a few of the names in a crowded Democratic field relishing the prospect of the first sidential election c iganera.

Campaigning for the 1986 elections is just heating up, but the jockeying for the 1988 Democratic presidential nomination already is going full steam. No one has declared hs candidacy, but there is plenty of early activity.

So far, the Democrats have avoided the sort of bloodshed that usually marks the struggles for the partys presidential nomination and often leaves the winner badly wounded.

But what pleases them most is the prospect of running against someone other than Ronald ^gan.

The Democrats never laid a glove on Reagan. They carrid six states in 1980 and one in 1984.

While the prospect of Reagans retirement is a source of Democratic delight, many party leaders are aware that their dechne in presiden-tialpolitics began well before 1980.

The Democrats have lost four of the last five presidential elections and their nommees have been particularly weak in the South and West, the high-growth Sunbelt states.

As a result, the potential Democratic candidates are busy establishing their credentials as spokesmen for the partys future rather than prisoners of its past.

Finding himself in the iraamiliar role of early front-runner. Hart is working hard to assure that no opponent can score points during the next campaign by repeating Walter F. Mondales question from 1984; Wheres thefe

The Colorado senator, who is giving up his seat when his term expires i January, has written a book on defense policy, delivered a lecture series on foreign affairs, and issued a steady stream of statements on a broad range of issues.

Hart said in an interview that he welcomes the attention his ideas get because of his role as front-runner.

If Im right about my notion that ideas have power, and its not just lersonalities, then I welcome the at-ention to those ideas, he said.

Linked (me of the ideas getting a lot of attention is Rep. Richard Gephardt, D-Mo., who may try to make the tough jump from tne House of Representatives to the White House.

Gephardts issue is tax simplification. He was an early chambn of that cause ata with Sen. BUI Bradley, D-N.J. T%e tax bill that is expected to clear Congress in mid-September may get Gephardt more attention as he quietly moves around the country, meets with party regulars and tries to become better known, particularly in Iowa and New Hampshire, the states that lead off thecaucus and primary season.

Former Gov. Charles Robb of Virgini is staking out the conservative territory as chairman of the Democratic Leadership Conference. Robb, Gephardt and Gov. Bruce Babbitt of Arizona were prime movers in formation of the council which was designed to inject conservative ideas into a party they felt had drifted too far left ana was tied too closely to labor and various interest

Babbitt achieved a bit of one upmanship in the competition for attention by bicycling across Iowa and mountain climbing in New Hampshire.

Biden capitalized on his position as a senior member of two important Senate committees Foreign Relations where he had a heated confrontation with Secretaiy of State George Shultz over South African policy, and Judiciary where he questioned Justice William Rehnquist at the heai^ on his nomination to be chief justice.

The prospect of a Southern regional primary on March 8,1988, is particularly attractive to party conservatives who have spent the past year making that dream a reality.

While most of tl^ Democrats are grabbing at every opportunity to get some attention, two people who have no i^lem being noticed are giving no si^ theyre interested in running.

WASHINGTON (AP) - See how they run, the Republicans who dream of succeeding Ronald Reagan.

No kid-gloved, country-club contest is this; The GOP h^uls are duking irootrHeavttTforbidrlike^ Democrats.

The reason for the intensity is the impending retirement of the president who for two decades has commanded the loyalty of the conservatives who now control the party.

While Vice President George Bush is the early front-runner for the 1988 nomination, he has no such claim on a major segment of the GOP. And neither do any of his potential rivals.

So, the battle was joined early, with Bush the top target of those who want to cut him down before he locks up the nomination.

Two full years before RepubUcans wUl meet to nominate a successor to eagan, Rush, New Yoit Reo. Jack Kemp and the Rev. Pat^Riibertson went at each other mostly through surrogates - in Michigan.

Robertson cried foul when Bush supporters circulated a flyer headlined, Help Keep Religion Out of PoUtics, which warned that Robertsons fundamentalist porters were trying to take over party. The Bush and Kemp camps complained about ea(A others use (rf Reagan in their campaign Uterature.

Since Reagan was inaugurated in Jani^ 1985 for his second term as president, a handful of Republicans nave been maneuvering for advantage, setting up organizations and fund-raising networks geared toward 1988.

Helms Uses Staff Of Specialists

WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. Jesse Helms, R-N.C., has fought both Democrat and Republican presidents over foreign pohcy, iising a small 9taff that travels the world, generally at the expense of private foundations or foreign organizations.

Its a team group, and we just all pitch in with whatever needs to be done, said Jim Lucier, 51, the scholarly intelluctual and administrative leader of the Helms foreign service. We dont have assignments, and we dont have staff meetings, and we dont have job descriptions.

None of these people ever brought us a resume, he said. We knew about them before they came to us.

They are troglodytic cold warriors, said Lawrence Birns, director of the Council of Hemispheric Affairs, a liberal research organization.

But Howard Phillips, chairman of the Conservative Caucus, said they are first-class people who with Helms are holding aloft the banner that Reagan raised beginning jn 1976.

The foreign affairs specialists, in addition to Lucier, are:

Deborah DeMoss; fluent in Spanish and well-traveled in Latin America.

Christopher Manion; 40, speaks Spanish an(f is a Latin America expert with strong ties to the religious community there.

- David Sullivan; 43, Helmss arms control expert, known among Senate staffers as Mad Dog for his deep-seated suspicion of the Soviets.

That group is aided by several others, mcluding Cliff Kiracofe, an Africa specialist from the Fletcher School of Diplomacy at Tufts University; an(l Kathy Stoner, Asia specialist and a University of

State Department appointments under President Reagan.

Most recently, in July, Helms accused the U.S. ambassador to C3iile of supporting communist activity by going to the funeral of a protester who was burned while being apprehended by Chilean troops.

Helmss critics in the government responded by forcing a Senate investigation of charges that Helms or his staffers leakedf secret information to the Chilean military dictatorship.

In the past 12 years Helms has

visited Israel, Brazil, Ur Chile, Argentina, Costa Panama, Honduras, El Salvador, Taiwan, England, Venezuela, Switzerland and South Korea.

The Institute of American Relations, a foundation created by Helms associates and financed by mail ap-peMs to the senators supporters, paid for many of his trips. Lucier said the foundation is defunct.

Foreign organizations have paid for several recent trips by Helms staff. In July, Lucier ami Sullivan went to West Germany with expenses paid by the Hans Seidel Foundation.

TiNKnas Kean of New Jersey is encouraging people to mention his name.

And Sen. Paul Laxalt of Nevada is being watched by all potential candidates.

Laxalt has a unique ixisition as a close personal friend of Reagan and the man who was chairman S every Reagan presidential campaign. The Nevada senator conunands the loyalty of the hard core of Reagan ac-tivmts.

Im looking aj iC says Laxalt when askedabout a run for the presidency.

The Nevada senator has openly questioned whether Bush could be elected president and whether the vice president isnt more of a moderate than a conservative.

He has said that many conser-vatves believe that when it comes down to the crunch, George wont have the strength.

All of this activity goes on despite the rallies and chants of four more years, spurred by a move to repeal the two4erm limit for praidoits. Even if it succeeded, there is no indication Reagan, 75, would run for a third term.

For the two months leadina im to the 1966 elections, it will he a Buyers market for Republican candimtes interested in having the partys 1988 gr^dential nominee campaign for

While no one knows yet who that nominee will be, the men who hope to

pick up the White House keys from Ronald Reagan on Jan. 20,1969, are busily collecting political lOUs this year by helping Ck)P candidates for governor and Congress.

Bush plans to spend most of September and October on the road. So far, his September schedule includes stops in 17 states and aides are filling out plans for October that are likely to top that number.

Kemp and Dole have congressional schedules to worry about and also are running for re-election.

Both raced out of Washington when Cong^ recessed this month.

Dole was in 10 states, including Iowa and New Hampshire, the two that will kick of the 1988 primary and caucus season.

Kemp campaigned in 13 stat^ for 22 Republican candidates. His press secretary, John Buckley, said the New York congressman planned to campaign for at least 25 candidates in September and was holding two weeks in October open for campaign-

^%bertson says he has been invited into 16 states on behalf of GOP Senate candidates.

I am the third most prolific fundraiser for the Republican Party right now, he said. The president is first. So, in a sense Im paying my dues.

But theres more to this early presidential campaign than helping other candidates.

Micli^ Republicans got the 1988 campai^ off to an early start by electing precinct delegates on Aug. 5, a first step toward selecting the states delegation to the Republican National Ckmvention two years from now.

The complex Michigan system defied any clear assessment, which was no deterrent to people determined to declare a winner.

Bush, Kemp and Robertson and their supporters have kept busy the past month trying to sell meir unique interpretations of the Michigan voting.

Biotech Center Drawing Bipartisan Support

By F. ALAN BOYCE ^ Associated Press Writer

.RALEIGH P) The Norih Carolina Bioiechnology Center, once ihe battleground for partisan squabbling, now enjoys support from both the Democrat-controlled Le^lature and Republican Gov. Jim Martin.

Martin propo^ a S85-87 budget that would have deleted the $5>miUiGn outgoing Gov. Jim Hunt had recommended for biotechnology research.

Martin said then there was no need to rush the funding. But he offered no ipQ^tance to continuation funding in 1986 and heartily endorsed the center last Imsik in his BliKprint for Economic Development.

tronics Center of North Carolina and the Biotechnology Center by targeting specific industries and companies which offer high potential for our state.

Earl MacCormack, Martins science adviser, said the governors early reservations were more with how the money would be spent than with the center itself.

My understanding with him is that when he became governor he lodced at the plans for the Biotechnoli^ Center and he didnt think the plans were developed enough for funds to be expended, MacCormack said. We want to ensure the public that they are getting their moneys worth.

He (Martin) wanted more sutetance. Since then the Biotechnology Center has evolved a series of programs.

Lt. Gov. Bob Jordan said he was happy Martin had reconsidered his early (^position.

I am pleased that the administration which'suggested in 1S85 that wc eliminate the Science and Technology Board and cut funds for the Biotechnology Center and the Microelectronics Center is now recommending support for these important initiatives, Jordan said in a statement after the blueprints release. They are necessary as we seek to bolster our economy. ^'Gerry Hancock, a former state senator and now chairman of the Biotechnology Center, said he was not surprised at the support.

Between the 1985 General Assembly and the 1986 General Assembly, the administration did look at the matter and I was very happy to see that they

would support the activities of the biotechnology center, he said. I think its important that we have bipartisan support.

Pembroke State Will Celebrate 100th Anniversary Wednesday

PEMBROKE, N.C. (AP) - In 1887, W.L. Moore and Hamilton McMillan squeezed $500 from the General Assembly and returned to Robeson County to start a school for Indians.

But when they got home, few wanted anything to do with their one-room elementary school. The Indians, now known as Lumbees, had been denied the right to vote or attend public schools for two genera- tions, and any gift from whites was . looked on with suspicion.

; But in the century since then, the ; little school at Pembroke has grown ; from an Indian elementary school to -a predominantly white university with a record enrollment this year of ^ ,2,410 students.

* > The Lumbee Indians and others :;8rHI celebrate that heritage when : - Pembroke State University holds its : I ctennial convocation Wednesday.

broke State and a former state representative. Thats what we owned, about the only major thing we owned. That was something we could always refer to as ours.

As the school has changed, it has gone through an identity crisis, struggling with questions about what role the schools Indian heritage will play in the future. And the 50,000 Lumbees have shared in those questions.

Theyre afraid the Indian people are losing their historic ties to uie university, said David K. Eliades, a Pembroke history professor who has co-authored a new book on the school. They understand this is state property, but they cant help but feel a proprietary interest in all this, sim-)ly because it was started for their lenefit. It was the only school Uiey knew for three generations.

For the schools first 30 years, it offered only elementary and high school diplomas.

Brooks Says Labor Values 'Blending'

Clifton Oxendine, an 86-year-old Lumbee and longtime dean and teacher at the school, received his high school diploma from Pembroke in 1924. But when he went to college, he had to go out of North Carolina.

Thats a sad story, he said as he sat in his modern ranch home last week, 500 yards from the site of the house where he was born. They wouldnt allow us to go to (the University of North CaroDna at) Chapel Hill. They didnt admit Indians from here at die university, so we got to looking elsewhere.

The school graduated its first college class of six students in 1940, and the General Assembly renamed the school Pembroke State College for Indians to recognize the achievement officially.

From 1940 to 1953, Pembroke State College was the nations only state-supported, four-year college for Indians.

In 1953, the board of trustees voted to admit white students. The whites brought needed tuition dollars, but with them came a concern that the white man was beginning to take vhites had giv(

RALEIGH (AP) - State Labor Commmissioner John Brooks says Labor Day honors the accomplishments of the present as much the accomplishments of the past.

Labor Day is still a vitally alive holiday not meant solely to honor those who came before us, but also to honor our own efforts, Brooks said in ills aiuiual Ltboi Day message. This is a day to reflect upon the rewards of labor.

Brooks said traditional work values such as good service and taking the risk of starting a new business still serve modern society.

hoM, for progress. the federal

government recognized Labor Day as a legal holiday in 1894. North Carolina followed with its own recognition of the holday in 1899.

Brooks said that efforts by the Department of Labor to establish apprenticeships and job training around the state continue. He said thousands of North Carolina men and women will receive training this year on their way toward learning skills that cannot be taught in the classroom alone.

:Brooks said overseas trading partners are winning the economic npetition because of the minds Ttsiransible for developing new ictaogy the skilled hands ca of making better goods.

and technical education.

Good paying jobs go unfilled every year simply because there are no skilled workers ready to take them, he said. If North Carolina wants to keep its industries com-petititive in inernational markets, then opportunities must be provided for thousands of young people to par-tiCiputc in jCb training prcgrauis in high-skillecf, high-paying jote.

Brooks said employers willing to spend the money to train one highly skilled worker get a loyal employee and production not equaled by a machine. A government wise enough to fund training and apprenticeship instruction provides working people an avenue to advance their careers. he said, thereby raising the quality of life and reinforcing a sound economy.

back the school whites years ago.

Indian control started slipping after integration began in the 1950s. The school began to recruit out-of-state students, whose ranks grew to 25 percent of the student body in the 1960s, Eliades estimated.

In the 1960s, the first blacks came to the school. It was also then that the school began substantial growth. President English E. Jones, a Lumbee who ran the school from 1962 to 1979^ snnervised the cnnstriiction and rehabilitation of most of the

buildings currently standing. Jones, who described himself as a brick-and-mortar presdent, needed moi^y from the Legislature to do that, a difficult task since Indians accounted for only a fraction of the states population.

But it was under Jones that the Lumbees growing fears of what Eliades called de-Indianization came to the surface.

Jones proposed tearing down the oldest, most noticeable building on campus - Old Main - and replacing it with an ultra-modern performing arts center. The building had deteriorated badly, but to many Lumbees it was the symbol of the opportunity Pembroke had given them. In the middle of the controversy, Old Main mysteriously burned down in 1973. The cause of the fire remains unsolved.

The fight over Old Main ended when then-Gov. James E. Holshouser Jr. announced that he would commit state funds to rebuild Old Main. Today, the building houses a Native American museum and the universitys American Indian Studies Department, one of only two such degree programs east of the Mississippi.

The school entered the UNC system in 1972, despite the concern of some Lumbees that consolidation would further loosen their grip on the

school.

Today, the school has roughly 2,400 students; 60 percent of them are white, 25 percent are Indian, 13 percent of them are black and 2 percent are other minorities. Chancellor Paul R. Givens says the schools next challenge is to strengthen the quality of the graduates the school produces.

AIDS Educator Will Try To Keep Public Informed

By ERICA JOHNSTON Associated Press Writer RALEIGH (AP) Hundreds of researchers are working on treatments and vaccines for acquired immune deficiency syndrome, but North Carolinas first full-time AIDS educator says the biggest hope now in curbing the spread of the disease is communication.

At this point, education is the only thing we have to fight the disease, said Daviu Jolly. It lomo like a vsccinc will take years and years, and theres been no big break in treatments. So were working with what we have.

AIDS, which was discovered in humans in this country only five years ago, has claimed more than 13,000 lives in the United States. Officials say 95 of the 133 people who contracted ADS in North Carolina have died. And 116 of the cases have been detected in the last two years alone.

Weve been needing some help for a good while, said Dr. Rebecca Meriwether of the communicable disease branch of the state division of health servoces. She had been coordinating ADS prevention efforts on a part-time basis with one other state health woraer.

Theres a lot we want to do in respect to ADS, and a lot we need to do, Ms. Meriwether said. We just havent been able to do it because of a lack of funding.

Jolly said there is a lot of misunderstanding about the disease, including how contagious it is and how it is transmitted.

The virus that can cause ADS, called HTLV-III, is transmitted in three ways: sexually; by the use of infected hvDodermic needles among intravenous drug users; and from infected mothers to their unborn children. Jolly said.

'Iheres no reason to fear casual contact with members of the high-risk groups, which are homosexual men, intravenous drug users and citizens of Haiti and some central African nations. Jolly said. Theres not even a reason to fear casual contact with people who have ADS. Theres no evidence that a health-care worker has ever developed ADS.

Members of the general public are not alone in not fully understanding how the disease is transmitted. Jolly said.

Sixteen of North Carolinas reported ADS cases to have been among intravenous drug users who use contaminated needles. Drug users would eliminate the possibility of contracting the disease because of their drug habit if they did not reuse needles.

Thats a tough group to get hold of to educate, Jolly said. We dont have a good sense of what they know, and they dont have support groups.

Gay men, who account for two-thirds of the ADS cases in North Carolina, still have a fair amount of misunderstanding about what constitutes safe sexual practices. Jolly said.

Les Kooyman of the Metrolina ADS Project in Charlotte agreed. Theres a good sense of denial here in Charlotte about the possibility of ADS, he said. That takes a while to get through.

Grass-roots ADS support grous like the one in Charlotte have been established in Durham, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, Asheville and Wilmington to educate uigh-nsk groups and to help care for thwe wuo liave ciaccd the disease.

They have contacts that the state doesnt have, Jolly said of the local groups. We need each other.

Ku Klux KIdn Holds Marches

SALISBURY, N.C. (AP) - About 110 people took part in recruitment marches for the Christian Knights of the Ku Klux Klan in three North Carolina cities, but meetings were also held in nearby churches where ministers led prayers for peace and forgiveness.

The Christian Knights gathered for their second meeting in two nights Saturday on Carroll wawfords farm in Bear Popular. For the second night they ht a cross to end their evening.

Down the road, the Rev. Jim Braswells church hosted a night meeting of hymn singing, scripture reading and prayer for all denominations and all races.' The 60 people brought flowers from which they made a cross.

No violence occurred, although

there was a verbal confrontation between marchers and a group of young blacks who had followed the demonstration in Salisbury.

About 100 men, women and children gathered in a parking lot afer the Salisbury march and Crawford stood on top of a vehicle to addr^ the group.

The Klan was growing, Crawford said. Less than a year ago, a similar Salisbury march had only 25 participants.
