UNCFPays Tribute To -Mollis F. Price . the next requirement is "experience as a -manager with a city similar to Durham in terms of political activi ty, racial issues and economic development." And the " third qualification that Del Castilho thinks 4ht new city manager " needs to grip Unity's reins is "a proven ability to deal with a variety of people i in a professional man ner." ". Those are no small orders, but managing Durham is no smafl task. Even as -he stresses the qualifications an effec tive city manager will needjiDel Castflho has reservations about the ci ty's ability to attract such a person. The Durham post ap parently includes a lot of headaches but few at tractive fringe benefits. In fact, considering Del Castilho's frustra tions, one could describe Durham as a huge three headed bull, galloping wildly and directionless with no clear purposes. Finding someone capable of taming this .municipal bull, capable - 'of absorbing the bumps and jerks as well as . broken bones, will be difficult. Anything short of an effective manager could leave Durham to gallop along as it has for decades. For years, city fortunes have swung from black .. to white, from liberal to conser vative, from fight to fight substituting new managers to- trample as they see fit. "The number of Council members can make the job difficult," Del : Castilho said. "Usually communtaK tions have to be in public tor with selected council Del Castilho sounds members. Choosing like of the trampled ' wfrch ones can be ones. Consider, the respon sibility of dealing with 1250 city employees: "I took it very serious ly,': Del Castilho said, "but I couldn't effective ly judge the quality of work being done, and it " ;triky' One of his main reasons for leaving, he said, is that he doesn't know if local govern ment is really this dif ficult or if its just Durham.

It's not unusual for one issue to take up most of. a city council meeting. This happened with night bus service, in the Campus Hill neighborhood rezoning issue, Hayti redevelopment, civic center discussions, ex pressway proceedings, and the list goes on. The divisions either break dow between ' black ana whiter businessmen and average citizens, senior citizens and the young, or rich and poor, to name a few of the city's many factions. next fiscal year's budget which he said will be dif j ficult because of a low tax base.

According to City Councilman Carroll Pledger, a member of the jnanager search commit tee, about 100 persons have applied. He said the cutoff date for applica tions is Nov. 26. He said it is too early to say when a new manager would be ap pointed, but that no one. from City Hall had ap plied for the top post. 1983 dinner will be held November 20. The Freedom Fund Dinner is one f two ma jor fundraising programs conducted by the local branch. The other one is the Mother-of-the-Year Contest that culminates in May during a statewide Freedom Day confab in Raleigh. According to Frazier, half of all the money raised locally or on the state level goes to the na tional xffice in New York. Fomore information on how to be involved in the two fundraising pro grams, contact the NAACP at 682-4930. And when it was ovtr, including the meal that featured stuffed cornish hens, several spirituals and speeches, everyone concluded that the eighth" annual . eedom Fund Dinner was the best ever. But they have not always been that good, according to George White, a 52-year NAACP member, the last seven of those in Durham. "The first year or so that I was here," he said, "the dinners just weren't that well-planned and organized, mostly because the organization just wasn't as close-knit then as it is now. HELP!

Rather than dissuade them, Dr. Price Sug gested that they demosntrate at the public library instead.
