The agency has already begun to notify local sponsors to begin planning summer programs, which they say should reach more than 600,000 disadvantaged youths, although they are considering an appeal of the federal judge's order. Lest week, U. S. District Judge Leonard Garth in Newark ordered the Labor Department to prevent the money fmm reverting to the Treasurjafat the end of the fiscal yaef at midnight June 3a T h Manpower AdmimstrJan had maintained Mt they ''hi not have sufficient time tu spend' tne money since congress reaffirmed by allocation last June 19 by rejecting the Administration's request to , remove the Youth Corps funds from the budget. The suit was brought by 22 community action program directors in New Jersey and two girls from Neptune, NJ, who had been promised summer jobs. More than 609,000 youths were expected to get jobs under the program through 930 organizations throughout the nation. Alfred Zuch, a Manpower Administration spokesman, said that "funds have been released and obligated in compliance with the court order." In it , related move, the director-designate for the Office of Economic Opportunity, Alvin Amett, announced that funding for the legal services back-up centers, previously provided on a month-to-month basis, would be furnished "in each case for a six-month period." The Senate Committee on Labor and Public Welfare had earlier expressed a fear that the centers, which have been called the backbone of the legal services aid to the poor, would "go out of existence" until a national legal services corporation was approved by Congress. The centers have been providing research and resource facilities to more than 900 neighborhood legal services offices nationwide. SI.

D. BRAND-I.I. S. CHOICE I mP BONELESS WHOLE TKE CREAM ' rk, or 12 CHi 1 This week is a good tune for some of us to relax ouselves after having a good time during the fourth of July holiday, plus another week of fun and pleasure. We probably should consider ourselves as the most happy and cheerful living creatures on this planet. Whether we worked during this period or not life's experiences are intended to make a person eventually face himself-- face reality. Of course, some people say they are more tired after a vacation then they were before. That is my main reason for making the above statements. It doesn't make any difference how tired or what our circumstances may be, we should be happy as long as we are able to control our thoughts and feelings, and maintain the power to visualize as having already overcome any situation or circumstances that we have to face in our every day affairs. At this point, we should be able to face the facts by realizing that anytime we take a vacation or have sometime off, our fears and worries and all other destructive emotions are still manifested in our minds and we carry them everywhere we go and we should know by now how to detach things of this nature from our minds, also leave them at some other destination during our trips and different places we have been, instead of bringing them back with us. That's why a majority of us complain about being tired and worn out because of the battle with those destructive things which cause so much confusion in our mind that they can destroy our pleasure, and we can't help from being in this particular condition. Some people still can't seem to eliminate unnecessary worries and fears, and continue to depend on alcohol, drugs, or lean on someone else for most of their help in seeking peace of mind. They try every angle to dodge the issue of facing life's trials and tribulations. But we must remember that we can't get away from our responsibilities that we came in this world to perform. Therefore, it's necessary for us to begin to sense the great scheme of things, which I will write on a few weeks from now. A few friends tease me sometimes by saying: "Thrope, you are getting mighty deep pal, but I have agreed with you on your ideas and thoughts." Finally, book education is fine, but unless it can be applied to life and living and the betterment of mankind, a oerson can be trapped by his own intellectual attainments and lose the very thing he's seeking. And remember, being a doctor is great, but the name that follow the "Dr." means not nine until .through his knowledge, he saves a life. Personal Interest Courses Slated At Durham Technical InstHiife Just exactly what is a personal interest course? Well, as the name implies, it can be almost any subject known to man. The basic ingredients for starting a personal interest course are: an interest in a particular subject, a teacher for the subject, and a facffl&&t which to teach the subject. Durham Tech can, and does, supply all of the necessary ingredients except thai of interest. In the case of personal interest classes it is the student who must provide the necessary interest. Here's how it works. Let's suppose that an individual (or group of individuals) is interested In learning how to fill out a personal income tax form. In order to start a class in this particular subject the following procedures must take place. The individual or group of individuals must make their interest known to Durham Technical Institute. This can be done bv either calling, writing, or personally coming to Durham Tech to indicate that such an interest exists. At this point, the individuals name and address will be recorded along with his 'interest." When twelve or more persons are recorded with tne same During the last year over 1.700 nersons enrolled in various personal interest courses offered by Durham Tech. Most of the courses were not held on the campus in Durham but near the homes ot the interested individuals. For example, classes in decoupate, cake decorating, art, interior decorating, knitting, physical fitness, sewing, tailoring, and typing were given in Oxford; Chapel Hill was the scene ot classes given in developmental education, ceramics, remedial education, as well as almost all of the other courses listed previously. The idea here is to carry the programs to the people-not the people to the programs. All in all, 97 personal interest classes were given in 24 different subjects. Classes start almost every week during the year and are open to any individual 18 years of age or Prospect Chapter No. 379 OB onsors "interest" then the necessary quota to start a class has been reached. At this point Durham Tech will seek to acquire an instructor for the course as well as obtain a suitable classroom laboratory, or shop far the instruction to take place. Upon acquiring an Instructor and facility, the individuals who have indicated an Interest in the course will be notified by letter as to when and where the course will be given. It's as simple as that to start almost any course. The primary item needed is that of twelve or more individuals who share the same "interest." Most personal interest courses are offered at night; however, this in no way implies that they cannot be offered during the day. Whenever the group wants to have the course that's when Durham Tech will offer it Durham Tech pays for the instructors fees, the cost of the facility in which the class is given, and in most cases provides free of charge all materials used in class. The student pays only a small registration fee, usually $2.00, plus the cost of a textbook if one is required. Most personal interest courses usually do not require texts.

The theories which nave advanced in respectable academic communities, Wilkins said, are a threat to the advancement of blacks as preceived by Thomas Jefferson - one of equality that one which is racist and applies a "law and order" theme. Although many would be ted to believe that the theory of racial genetic inferiority of blacks came from the Ku Klux fflan, it instead was advanced by Dr. William Shockley of Stanford University. "Dr. Shockley maintains that Negroes are inherently and innately inferior to whites and that no matter what legislation is enacted, what opinions courts may have and what administrative policies are pursued, black Americans are just plain unable to cope-from their mothers' wombs." Wilkins asserted. Unless the theory is challenged now, Wilkins warned it may find its way into educational policy. "The adoption of this thesis would dump all black protests on educational inequality into the ash can," he said. "It - r would play havoc with the system which whites have built so painstakingly to frustrate other whites and particularly to block blacks. GIRLS (Continued from front page) made several visits to the Retf home to persuade Mrs. Relf to agree to the sterilization. It asks for a national injunction against "sterilizations until the court has had the opportunity to rule on the merits of the case." The girls' father, who was capable of comprehending the nature of the operation, was not contacted by the agency, according to the suit. The clinic "gave as its reason" for the sterilization its inability to continue to look after the two girls under new regulations. The director of the agency, Joseph E. Conlin, said the clinic has been operating since March 1 under regulations of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, rather than under OEO guidelines. According to one news service report, Conlin said the girls had been taking a birth control drug but that it had been prohibited after March 1 when the Family Planning Clinic came under HEWs jurisdiction. He added that HEW had instructed clinics to discontinue using the drug because it had not been certified. Birth control pills were not recommended, Conlin said, because the two girls were considered not to have the "mental talents" to take them regularly. And, because the agency knew that "boys were hanging around the girls," the suit maintains, agency officials felt the best method to avoid an unwanted pregnancy was to sterilize the two gate. Orelte Dixon, head of this city's family planning clinic, said, however, that consent was obtained and that several similar sterilizations have been conducted this year. " I ii i iiilijenMisTJ m i what happeheTTTol mem and their mother understood exactly what ate was doing," Mrs. Dixon said. Katie Relf, 16, said a day after her two younger sisters were sterilized, two agency workers tried to encourage her to have a similar operation. She said she told them she didn't need the operation or birth control pills.

A spokesman said the organization cannot afford to repair the air conditioning. "We "have cut our staff far below the number necessary to carry on a live and vibrant program. I am unable to proceed any further without adequate staff," said Abernathy. Many black people now occupy high positions made possible through the struggles of SCLC, he said, "but will not support it financially and make it possible for this organization to meet its obligations and commitments. " He said the black middle dam "who have arrived and who were benefactors of our labor have turned a deaf ear to our can." Violence thrust Abernathy into the presidency of the non-violent organization, with the assassination of King in April 1968; A Baptist minister like King and a partner hi the civil rights struggle for years, Abernathy worked, marched, preached and went- to jail with King, like King, he was unsalaried as head of SCLC. When King was slain, the loosely knit oreaniztion of numerous church affiliates without formal rank and file membership, tightened its belt financially and struggled to ; survive. Last fall, SCLC was hi such dire financial straits that it cut off 21 employees, prompting the resignations of several key staff members, including its executive director and head of public relations. In the absence of these two officers, Abernathy said, was unable to function adequately as president. He gave as another the nee essi t y of devoting full time to the mmtetry of his Ww: mHfimm Baptist church. The church has outgrown present failMtffa, he said, and he to needed in plana for expending and rebuilding. Abernathy declined to speculate on his successor, saying the SCLC board of directors would choose a new pSmlileiit in August, during their 16th annual convention. WILMINGTON (Continued from front peje) posted the $50,000 appeal bail bond for Chavte test December. The otter nine persons have been in jail for a year, unable to rake the exhorbitant hailc The Commission for Racial Justice sponsored the resolutions calling unon the United Church of Christ to post the bail for the Wilmington 9. The nine are: Mrs. Ann Shepparf, Marvin Patrick, Connie Tvndall. Jem Jacobs, Willie Vereen, Reginald ispps, James McKoy, William Wright and Wayne Moore. The charges against the Wilmington 9 arose out of racial conflicts in Wilmington in 1971 in which white vigilantes roamed the Black community with shotguns sticking out of car windows. The Reverend Dr. Charles E. Cobb, Executive Director of the Commission for Racial Justice, praised the decision of tne l. en era! Synod as "evidence that the church still can be the conscience of this nation, calling it to justice and righteousness in the true spirit of Jesus Christ. This should serve as a reminder for all to e, that this church will not stand by idly while rampant injustice prevails." JUDGES (Continued from front page) Education Act, the Vocational Education Act, and the Adult Education Act. Judge Waddy said the states had "demonstrated a substantial likelihood of success on the merits" of the suit and said the money should be obligated for possible future use instead of reverting to the U.S. Treasury, which would have happened at the close of the fiscal year last Saturday, his order could be vacated. In the second cam, U. & rjtetrtet Judge Gerhard Gesetl ordered Health, Education and Welfare Secretary Caspar Weinberger to process apffimttans for grants for community mental health The piuitaaing of them apnlmtlnni bad ceased Feb. 23 on the order of an HEW budget official after President Nixon said in his budget message that no new staffing gahm would be awarded. According to the plaintiffs, led by the National Council of Community Mental Health Cawjmi, more than $51 million in grants were affected. In the third ruling, us District Judge Leonard L Garth of Newark, N.J. ordered the government to spend $239 million in Neighborhood Youth Corps funds by the end of the past fiscal year. The Corps is expected to provide 609,000 summer jobs to youths across the country. There is no doubt it was the unequivocal intention of Congress that the amount be appropriated. This to no raid on the public treasury. It is just action required to release appropriated funds, " Judge Garth said. The three rulings came one day after an order by U.S. District Judge William B. Jones here that the Office of Ecomomic Opportunity process 600 grant applications by last Saturday. BLACK MASS. CORRECT IONS OFFICIAL OUSTED BY GOVERNOR BOSTON - (NBNS)-.
