The members of the Robert H. Lawrence Squadron of the Arnold Air Safety (AAS) at Fayetteville State/Pembroke State Uni- versity-Det 607 saw this as an opportunity to help those in need. Approximately one week after the catastrophe the Arnold Air Society members established five drop off points on the Fayetteville State University campus. Dates of the drop off j)oints were from 2 Sep - 9 Sep 92. Both members and non-members of AAS worked long hours on creating post ers, gathering boxes, and posting flyers in order to publicize the relief effort. In addition to the posted information, AAS members coordinated with the campus ra dio station, WFSS in order to inform FSU faculty, staff, and students where the drop off points were located. The result of this relief effort was the collection of over 1200 pounds of essential items such as: pow dered milk, baby items, clothes, pet food, and toiletries. The items were taken to the Bonnie Donne Fire Station which is an Official Drop Off Point for donations to be given to hurricane victims. The Fire Department is working with the Cape Fear Food Bank and the Second Harvest National Food Bank Organization to deliver the items to Homestead AFB and Palm Springs, Florida. The members of AAS would like to deeply thank the mem bers of Fayetteville State University and the Fayetteville Community for their con tribution in making this relief effort such a success. Protect yourself... * (continued) If you are being followed by a vehicle, turn around and walk quickly in the oppo site direction. If the car turns around and continues to follow you, go into a place of business and tell the person on duty there. Ignore whistles or remarks. Your re sponse would only encourage the partici pants. Avoid walking through a group of men. Walk around them or, if possible cross the street. VEHICLE Never pick up a hitchhiker. Always keep you car locked even when driving. If you open a window, open it enough to allow only air in, not a hand. Always park your car in a well-lighted area. If possible, never leave your key with a parking atten dant. If you must do so, leave only your ignition key. Always check both front and rear seat areas to make sure no one is hiding there. If your car breaks down,remain inside your locked car and place your “Call the Police” banner in your rear window. If you have no banner, quickly raise your hood then remain in your car. When help ar rives, ask to see ap propriate identifica tion before unlock ing a door or lower ing your window. If you are being fol lowed, drive to the nearest police sta tion. Do not drive home unless help is there. If you pass your house, give no indication that you live there. If you think you have been followed when you get home, stay in the car with windows up and doors locked. Blow your horn to get at tention. Always check to insure all gauges are working properiy and you have plenty of gas and oil before departing on any trip. Keep packages, purse and other items securely under your arm. Sit close to the operator. Do not sit near a group of men. If you are not sure where to get off, ask the driver and sit near the front of the bus. AT HOME ^ If possible, select your living quarters in a heavily-populated area. If in an apartment, ask to be located above the ground floor. Have your keys ready before you get to the door when returning home, particu larly at night. Don’t put your full name(s) on the mailbox if you live alone or with other PUBLIC TRANS PORTATION TOP TEH GROSSEST THINGS OH EARTH 10. Naked fat guys on vinyl seats. 9. Camel breath. 8.

Instead, the use of your first initial may imply you are a man and thus discour age a would-be attacker. It has been said that an additional “dummy” name may provide extra protection. Never leave a note on your door or a key in a “secret place.” WEAPONS AS PROTECTION Do not rely on weapons as protection as they can be taken form you and used against you. The emotional make-up of a woman as opposed to men makes it diffi cult for women to use a weapon which may result in injury. Moreover, weapons are hard to handle correctly and many times are not in your hand when you need them. Curb, a teargas canister of CN gas, will disable an attacker ten feet away for 20 minutes, allowing you enough time to get away. CURB leaves no permanent disabil ity, thus most women are not hesitant to use it. , The most im portant advice is to try to remain calm, analyze the at tacker’ s motivation and react accord ingly.
