V t-Ti.CAT.5USATIrS SAT., AUGUST 23, 1879 " - ' " " .--.II 4 By Sternal Erfaco NSfFA . -1 . a . . : COriTOE ''HEWS OMSE Ght Impressive New Nunt Bat tkc Sum Half Empty Pocketbook In his Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare came up with with the truism that "a rose by any other name would ' smefifes sweet." By the same token, OMBE, the' poorly financed effort to help minority business enterprises, . has the same sweaty odor of failure, no matter how high sounding the new name. v Under Secretary of Commerce Luther . H. Hodges, Jr., announced at a press conference the other day that the Office of Minority Business Enterprises was having its name changed to Minority Business Development Agency. This, he said, was to upgrade and expand the program's current minority business effort. Obviously upgrading and expanding will require more funding. So all-of us at the press conference waited for the bottom line the increase in funds above the mere $38 million to provide more management assistance. Then came (you won't believe this) the big disap pointment, the. impressive new agency, Hodges said, will be funded during (he first fiscal' year at the same level as OMBE There was no mention of a bigger budget in future years. Hell, I am with you, Shakespeare, garbage by any other name smells like gar bage. Ban on Sickle Cell Pilots Leads to Fights in Pentagon Remember Ms. Kathleen Carpenter, deputy assistant secretary Of Defense, who I told you was barred from discos in West Germany recently when she showed up with a black escort during her visit there as an equal op portunity officer studying racism? Now she is at war with the pentagon medics who have disqualified anyone with the sickle cell trait from being assigned to flight duty. Officers tell me that Air Force and Navy research indicates that sickle cell victims might blackout during an emergency. Howard University Sickle Cell specialists tend to agree, although they hasten to point out that the thirty year old research studies were not done in pressurized planes. Now, of course, virtually all high flying planes are pressurized. UCCUTo Offer 12 Coarsos ....... ;, ..

He says there may be some asagiunents.

Her resignation has been in the works for nearly two months, v. Dr. Abramowitz, a psychologist, taught at Howard, did research and planning for the D.C. public schools, and worked for the National Council of Negro Women before joining the White House staff in 1977. iociooQOinonnhnnnTTTriflTTTTrrr'" If you looking for oundeducU6n for your chta REGISTER YOUR CHILD TODAY AT - KIDDIE COLLEGE DAY CARE CENTER 603 S.
