County Residents Attendhg UNC-G GREENSBORO The University of North Carolina at Greensboro has an enrollment of 10,201 this fall, including two students from Chowan County. Chowan County is among 95 counties in the state that are represented by students at UNC-G during the current academic year. The students from Chowan County are: Graham S. Cox, 11, 203 Terry Avenue and David W. Hibbard, 215 W. Queen Street, both of Edenton. The five North Carolina counties which do not have students on campus are Camden, Clay, Currituck, Pamlico and Tyrrell. The best and finest acts in all circusdom are sought througout the world. Per formers wardrobes are specially styled to add the necessary “glitter” to the mystique of the circus stars. Acts such as “Targa the uncaged performing leopard,” “Uncle Heavy’s Pork Chop Review,” dogs acts, Trapeze artist, and horses will thrill and delight everyone from 2 to 200. Tickets are $3. a piece and may be purchased from any Optimist club member. Club president Mike McArthur asks you to support the Optimist Club and enjoy yourself at the circus. The Chowan Herald SECTION B Carolina Review: Scenario For Redistricting Congressional Turf! SIMPLE...Say there was a miniature state of North Carolina, maybe like the miniature legislative sessions we’ve been having, and that state contained 500 voters. Ideally, that state would be divided into 5 counties of 100 voters each. Each county would elect one representative. Abolish the thought of other elected officials from the counties, especially Senators and Congressmen that would require district alignment. Now, in the ideal situation above, each elected representative would represent an equal number of voters (100) - theoretically speaking, one man, one vote. Os course, over a period of time-10 years for instance the voting population might increase by 500. Imagine that 25 voters moved into each of 4 of the original 5 counties. In the sth county, however, 400 voters moved in. Assuming each county still had only one representative, then 4 of the representatives would represent 125 voters apiece. The sth county represen tative would have 500 voting constituents, or almost 5 times the number of its sister counties. The voters of the heavier populated county would be short changed in that their vote would have been diluted. To maintain the one man, one vote principle, the big county would have to in crease its number of representatives to four. Then, even though one county held as many voters as the other 4 combines (500), there would still be one elected representative for every 125 voters. Os course, everyone realizes that the number of representatives can not be infinitely increased as the population grows. So, in our imaginary state, lets set an arbitrary limit on the number of represen tatives the current 8 for instance. In the future, realignments must be made, not by in creasing representatives, but by geographic shifts in the district makeup and by occassional reduction in representation strengths in some areas (as other areas grow faster). As luck would have it, in the next 10 years, our counties don’t grow proportionately. The big county, call it an urban county, increases by 500 voters. But the other 4 counties grow by varying amounts (from 25 in one to 350 in another) that total, believe it or not, another 500 voters. To keep the one man, one vote principle, we merely combine the 4 smaller counties (call them rural counties) into one district of 4 representatives. Now the VIES FOR TOP DEGREE Gov. James B. Hunt, Jr., is pictured here with Diana Spruill of Roper who is in the running for the American Farmer Degree. The recognition is the highest degree presented by the National Future Farmers of America organization. Spruill Is Nominated For Award Diana Spruill of Roper has been nominated to receive the American Farmer Degree, highest degree presented by the National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Organization. Diana was nominated for the degree by the N. C. FFA Association. One of the 778 FFA members nominated for the the American Farmer Degree, Diana will receive the degree in a special ceremony on November 12, pending a final vote of 121 student delegates representing nearly half a million FFA members. Travel awards will be presented to American Farmer Degree recipients to offset their travel ex Edenton, North Carolina, Thursday, November 5, 1981 larger county, a district all its own, has 4 represen tatives with an average constituency of 250 voters each (1,00 voters in the district). The new combined district also has 4 representativs with an average constituency of 250 voters, through t the representativs are elected “at-large.” There you have it~ redistricing made simple. Unfortunately, cir cumstances outside our penses to the National FFA Convention in Kansas City. At the convention each American Farmer Degree recipient will be presented a gold key and certificate. Diana is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William E. Spruill of Roper and is currently attending college. She earned the American Fermer Degree on the basis of her leadership activities and her supervised oc cupational experience program with horses.

You might also assume that rural counties would balk at being thrust into a district overwhelmingly populated by urban voters. Should the realignment apparatus work through all of those complications, then the process might need what is known as a “clincher.” For that, try the federal guidelines (1965 Voting Housemover’s Assn. Convention Held The North Carolina Housemover’s Association Convention was held at the Carolinian Hotel, Nags Head October 22-25. Housemovers and their families from half North and South Carolina came for this meeting. Friday morning the men were taken out on the headboat, Crystal Dawn, for deep sea fishing. The women enjoyed a tour of both Hatter as and Ocracoke Islands. Hosts for this convention were Mr. and Mrs. Worth H. Hare, Sr., and Mr. and Mrs. Worth H.

NORTH CAROLINA 27932 PHONE 919 482-4481 SECTION B Rights Act) forbidding the dilutio of minority voting strength through reap portionment. Last week, in real life, the N. C. House may have solved its problem of satisfying the prerequisites -including borderline ac commondation of the federal guidelines. But the Senate decided to wait and see what the Feds suggest about their plan. A plan which, according to the State Attorney General’s office is not defendable in court. Perhaps the biggest! problem of the whole process has been the lack of a leader willing to sacrifice some of his own turf in order to set a tone of compromise among lesser members of the Assembly. School To Close November 11th Edenton - Chowan Schools will be closed on Wed nesday, November 11. This holiday for students, the entire school faculty and the administration will be in observance of Veteran’s Day.
