ANALYSIS OF LUMBEE * INDIANS PUBUSHD) In the summer issue of "American Speech," ? quart erly of English usage, a special article appears jointly written by Dr. Rabert Refefag. Pembroke State University professor of "Communicative Arts and American Indian Studies, and JnlMae Brewer assistant dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and associate professor of English at UNC-Greensboro. - It is the first linguistic analysis of the language of the Lumbee Indians, says Dr. Reising, who adds: "It is only ?t, * first step but certainly a 'necessary one. I only t|ope that many future studies of this language will follow.* The article is entitled: "To kens in the Pocosin." The authors' research was sup ported by Research Council grants awarded by Pembroke State University and UNC Greensboro. Dr. Reising expressed great appreciation to the Lumbee Regional Development Asso ciation for its help in the research. "Without LRDA's aid-and PSU's?we never would have been able to complete and refine our study," said Dr Reising. "Many folks at LRDA were helpful, but no more than Ben Jacobs and Jaaie Maynor LocUeas." In thier article, Reising and Brewer quote from Hamltou McMillan's publication in 1888, entitled: "Sb Walter RaMgh'e Lost Colony," by Advance Press. They noted that when the first white settlers came to southeastern North Carolina in the 18th century, they "found located on the waters of the Lumber 'River a large tribe of Indians, speaking English, tilling the soil, owning slaves, and prac tising many of the arts of rivilized life...They held their lands in common, and land titles only became known on the approach of white men." The article states: "Like other cohesive communities, the Lumbees use language as a significant linguistic and culturay^^^|nai^ words, certain meaning of words, and certain pronuncia tion signal their ethnic iden tity.and intensify outsiders." The article goes into the Lumbees' use of die central ized diphthong "more than half the time." plus other linguistic notations. In conclusion Reising and Brewer state: "Our findings in this preliminary study demonstrate the need to analyze the Lumbee variety of English in relation to region, community or subregion, and social variables such as sex differences. This study is but the first step in the too-long delayed process of examining Lumbee English." DR. JAMES B.

RESULTS OF BUDGET QUIZ Here are the answers tor the County Budget Quiz that was printed in last week's newspaper. Ironically, not a single person turned in their completed quiz to the Caro lina Indian Voice by Tuesday evening. Verbal inquiries were made to the Indian Voice and to County Commission ers. So, no one wins a free subscription! All it would have taken to win was for one citizen to turn in their quiz with only one correct answer! An assumption that can be drawn is that our readers feel totally lost in our county's budget and no one wanted to be quizzed on it. This is a sad statement on citizen invotv ment in our county. Better luck next year! I lie answers to the County Bin'get Quiz are as follows: I.- ?: 2.-B: 3.-C: 4. D: 5.-C;6. D; D; 8.-True; 9.- C; and io N( ,~E: The correct answer to #6 s "None of the Above."
