m 6A THE CAROLINA TIMES SmU, Nov. S, 197S John Hudgtas For those of us who wad the other paper on Sunday, we certa inly oouM have not misaed the full page article on the mayor's race. What is even more shocking, but understandable is the fact that the true ealon of Jim Hawkins are finally coining forward. Already we are getting to the point where Hawkins is attacking his opponent ffiMM calling. This is normal in some political campaigns. In a city which is supposed to have such a non-part usan city government, such an attack amounts to more than justThose of us familiar with mayoral campaigns that involve a Black know that when the going gets to the point, the incumberant white candidate resorts to racism to arouse the majority of prejudiced white voters. This is the same thing that is happening in Durham. Of course at this point Hawkins is a little too smooth to come out and call his opponent a " Nigger-out-of-hi- place' ' so instead he resorts to high sounding words which say the same thing. Reverend Lorenzo A. Lynch is anything but an "obstreperous little suss." As a fine religious leader and pastor to one of the largest churches in Durham, it is an insult to the Black community to have a sorry cracker like Jim Hawkins belittle such a man. The word obstreperous means according to Webster, unruly, uncontrollable, stubbornly defiant. The other part of the phrase you can figure out for yourself. While Rev. Lynch may be uncontrollable or unruly, we must ask what is Hawkins trying to say? Controlled by whom, ruled by what? Any Black man who can stand uncontrolled and unruled is certainly a credit to the Black community. For this Hawkins unintentionly gave his opponent a compliment That is unless we look at the rest of the statement. Then is becomes clear that the meathead probably did not know the meaning of the first word or he intended some other interpretation of it. We can only assume based on the history of how white people act and how they think, that Hawkins wants to disregard Rev. Lynch by name-calling and hiding behind fancy words. It is clear to this writer that Rev. Lynch is certainly bringing more of the issues into the campaign. It is clear that Hawkins is being driven closer and closer to the wall. Like Yorty, and Massell, if the campaign lasted any more than another week, he would be donning his claim to experience and expertise, and starts calling-names, it is clear that his next move is to the garbage can of race-baiting, and demagogery. DurhamCollege Tigers Cage Coach Resigns Reginald N.

Black people in this city are more responsible for the progress of this city than anyone else but the Dukes and most of them are dead. The money that North Carolina Mutual, Mechanics and Fanners Bank, NCCU Durham College, Mutual Savings and Loan, and a host of other Black institutions bring into this town cannot be ignored. What Black people put into this town cannot be forgotten, and we certainly ought to take issues with a man who belittles Black folk. He has not stopped this low against any white man in this city or anyplace else. If he cannot be decent in the campaign, you know what to expect if he is elected. Besides what has he done for you anyhow. If he calls us the above in public, imagine what he does in his office.

During the four years that Coach Terry has been at the helm of the basketball program at Durham College, he has made the local school a national power in junior college ranks. In compiling a 91-33 record, teams playing under the guidance of the Norfolk native have made appearances every year in regional tournaments. Only a few points prevented his team of 1971 from capturing the National Little College Athletic Association Championship as the squad finished second nationally in both tournament play and the polls. Coach Terry received a Bachelor of Science Degree from Norfolk State College and holds a Master of Arts Degree Counseling from North Carolina Central University. He is a member of the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Who's Who in the South and Southeast, Personalities of the South, National Association of Basketball Coaches of the IL' N.J.C.A.A. Basketball Association, National Association of Directors or Athletics and many others. Several years ago, a good friend of mine owned a radio and television repair shop. While watching hime one day working on a TV set and the way he used so much time and energy, plus a deep mental strain in his work caused me to become impressed and deeply concerned. The way he was perspiring and his depressed and nervous look, forced me to tell him to stop and relax. He quoted: "I've been working on this television for hours, and only have gotten the sound, but I can't seem to understand why it won't show the picture, although I have checked out the high voltage system that goes to the picture tube and etc." He also said, "the customer wanted his TV that evening, and he wanted to have it ready." ' 9i 1 My sympathy toward him forced me to say: "why not stop for a few minutes and ride with me over to a snack bar and get some refreshments, and come back and finish the job. He agreed, went with me, and we both ate a sandwich and drank a soda pop. , After we returned to his repair shop; in less than five minutes working on the same television, he had found the trouble, and had a clear picture on the television screen. You should have seen how his tense and depressed feelings vanished like vapors of steam from boiling water. He said, he had over-looked a simple little thing that caused him to waste all that time and energy, plus a mental strain that had given him a slight headache. This is an example of how many of us can put too mucn emphasis on thinking about or doing things, which punishes us mentally and physically by not taking time out to relax ourselves, which can easily cause us to become unbalance in our ways ot actions and thinking. ; Another example: No one enjoys being under pressures or lying awake nights worrying about their conditions, and circumstances they have to face the next day. Therefore, taking things or life too serious only makes conditions worse. Now. to bring the facts down front and express it m my way ot thinking; we probably, at times, create our own circumstances. We are the architects of our life, our character and deeds build our foundation, and if our foundation has some weak spots, it is left up to us to correct it. Keeping in mind how important it is of knowing how to relax as a means of throwing off the tension of present day living. ': Yes, the ability to relax and make light of a situation which has magnified itself- In our minds, could be a great aid towards over -coming it. When we have been so worried, or too close to our problems to see how to solve them; by relaxing our body and mind, it produces ideas and attracts conditions to us in which we considered hard to confront with.

A rMmlLi HrrHin "outreach" by Jerry Blackwelder Saturday morning television commercials emphasize the nutritional value of breakfast cereals to the cartoon generation, along with the sugar-coated good taste. Likewise, famous athletes pride themselves in being "meat and potatoes men." But there is a serious question as to whether either of these groups is getting the necessary nutrients his body requires to remain healthy. "When we think of starvation, we see a child being deprived of food, or an elderly person who messes in his food as a baby would," explained Mrs. Elizabeth Koontz, a newly-appointed Assistant Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Human Resources for Nutrition Coordination. "But we never think in terms of starving the body of certain nutrients." Mrs. Koontz, a Salisbury native returns to the Tar Heel State after serving four years as Director of the Women's Bureau of the U. S. Department of Labor. She was appointed to that position by President Nixon, and became the first black woman ever to hold the position. With an estimated 43 of North Carolina's pre-school children considered lacking in nutrition, it is clear that good nutrition begins at home. "Plumpness in babies is often mistaken as a sign of good health," Mrs. Koontz aid. "But sometimes very fat babies continue to be very fat adults." Children soon reach the age of wanting to accompany their mothers to the supermarket and load the foodbasket down with their favorite foods. "Mothers shouldn't carry their children to the market," Mrs. Koontz suggested. "They want to buy TV products, and the cost of food is too much to cater to the whims of children." The image of the "he-man" in most people's minds is the muscular giant who dines on steak and potatoes several times a day. But this is not a true picture, Mrs. Koontz says. "That guy may be suffering from hypertension; in other words, eating more meat than the body needs." At the same time, his body goes Wanting for other necessary nutrients because he refuses to eat salads, for instance, because they are considered "sissy" and equated with women. The wife then becomes resolved to living with what her husband wants to eat, and what his taste buds demand. "She's killing him softly with food," Mrs. Koontz maintains. Soon the body will revolt, and make its need for other food substances known. This is often in the form of illnesses, low energy level, and tiring easily. The solution lies in forcing changes in the bread winner's eating habits, a gradual turning away from the standard diet and introduction to new and beneficial foods. While housewives are working on their husband's eating habits, they are often guilty of the same sins thai of starving their bodies of needed nutrients. "Many women are trying to maintain that TV image," Mrs. Koontz pointed out. More Pay for Women Women with civilian ex perience in a number of fields, including medical, secretarial and data pro cessing, can now join the Array Reserve at a higher rank and more pay than be fore. At the same time, they will spend less time on active duty for training than previously required. In a new policy announced by the Pentagon, women without prior service, who have a civilian' acquired skill in any one of numerous fields, are eligible for this new enlistment program if they are between the ages of 18 and 35, and are high school graduates. Instead of entering the Army Reserve as a private, the women can join as a private first class, two grades higher than usual. Those women who join under this enlistment op portunity will serve only two weeks at the Women's Army Corps Center and School at Ft. McClellan, Ala., Instead of the seven weeks required in the past. The rest ot their basic training will take place with their Army Re serve unit in their home town. Following completion of basic training, the women will be promoted one, or two pay grades to Specialist 4 or Specialist 5, or sergeant. As a sergeant, a woman would earn $51.28 a week end, or $3.20 an hour. Although there are many job titles that fall under this program, there are special needs in the medical field for licensed practical or vocational nurses; x-ray technicians, dental special ists, occupational therapists and laboratory technicians; in the secretarial field for executive and legal secre taries; and in the area of data processing and com puter programming. Local Army Reserve units, listed in the white pages of the telephone directory under "US Government" etfi provide addltl Hon for those women inter ested in this special en listment program.

"I hope the voters will go "FOR" issue No. 2-the bond law amendment- on November 6 and make it possible for the $30 million of State aid to be put to work.

WHITING (Continued From Front Page) oe me toss oi siuaenis 10 me more prestigious institutions." Those institutions are not necessarily better than the small, state-supported schools, Whiting argues. "I think that our schools do more for a student over a four year period than do prestigious institutions like Harvard and Yale," the chancellor said. "We are more effective in the changes we induce in our students and the growth -ffe i. i , j ,x i ii ii... eneciea. i mm i oeueve ine Harvard student grows as much, because he doesn't start so far back. "Unfortunately, the measurements of 'quality' that are used measure objective things - the number of books, the costliness of the plant, faculty salary ranges, the number of Ph.D. degrees in the faculty. "We believe there should be a new set of criteria for measurement of quality, related to what happens to a student over a four-year period. During his year as president -r the A ASCII, Whiting said, the association will have to face a number of major issues, including tenure, collective bargaining and increased c en tralization in state-supported higher education. Whiting said colleges and universities will have to develop a better system of evaluating persons for tenure appointments so the institutions can retain flexibility. "I think hereafter," he said, "the awarding of tenure will be less automatic, although in principle it will probably be retained. There will probably have to be a shift in the premise on which it is based, namely that it protects academic freedom. Junior faculty members, without tenure, are demanding and receiving guarantees of academic freedom now." Whiting indicated that he is wary of the prospect of t.iiHi tive bargaining by faculty members.

Nov. 3, 1973 rmcAMVmWm Congre'l Black Caucus Demands House Move On hnpeachmenT The CoagtmkMM Wmm Caucus, sharing an opinion held by miliom of Amerkana, is dismayed and shocked by recent actions on the part of Richard M. Nixon. In the opinion of the Congressional Black Caucus, the decisions to discharge Archibald Cox abolish the office of Special Prosecutor were both i r r e s p o n fcb't' and unconscionable. The totality of recent events culminating in the resignation of the two highest Justice Department officials unnecssarily precipitated a constitutional crisis. The rind result represents not only an insult to the intelligence of American citizens but also an assault on established governmental institutions and more fundamentally the Constitution itself. The call for impeachment of Richard Nixon is neither new nor unique. Members of the Congresssional Black Caucus introduced impeachment resolutions as long as two years ago, based upon the strong contention that Nixon was carrying on an illegal war in Southeast Asia. Nixon's adventurism in Indochina was--an is- both illegal and impeachable and the cascade of ensuing executive crimesthe ITT, Vesco, milk and wheat deals, Water gate and all its associated criminal activities, the shady campaign contributions and payoffs, and Nixon's bevy of illegal impoundments of critical social program funding only further serve to strengthen the position that Richard Nixon should-and must-be removed from office. The Congressional Black Caucus urges the leadership of tint House of Kapreseseatlia iminediatety to derm and establish procedures and mechanics for dealing with consideration of the impeachment of Richard Nixon. Wt further urge that these procedures be made known to all luemtnm of the House and to the American people without delay. The Members of the Congressional Black Caucus oppose any consideration of Gear Id Ford's nomination for Vice President of the United States. The consensu is that to do so before the quest too of im pea inability of Richard Nixon is resolved constitutes Utter misi nterpretat ion of basic priorities. Therefore, the Congressional Black Caucus recommends that the Democratic Leadership of the House instruct the Judiciary i a.i a t i a ivommiuee io noia in aoyance any consideration of Gerald Ford until a full and thorough determination has been made concerning the pending serious charges of high crimes and misdemeanors against the nation by Richard Nixon. The Congressional Black Caucus strongly recommends that all citizens concerned about this current crisis make their concerns known to the leadership of the House immediately.
