/ p ^oomDDDO?;" ? * - GREENSBORO - The number of minority medical students has dropped 9.1 percent since the Bakke case was handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court, according to U.S. Attorney H.M. "Mickey" Michaux. The Middle District prosecutor referred to the recent statistics compiled by the national association of medical colleges during a speech to a careers conference at A&T State University here. Michaux, the first black U.S. attorney in the Southeast, told the 200 businessmen attending the meeting .that they have a stake in supporting affirmative action. - "It costs more to incarcerate than to educate," he said. "It costs $52,000 to keep a person in prison for four years and only $20,000 to send a student to college for four years." ? "TTic I'huiee is" edui'ailun?am)?employment?or~ *? Washington, D.C. -- The Consumer Product Safety : Commission (CPSC) has completed a six-month pilot program designed to teach fire safety to five groups of consumers: general low-income populations, American Indians, Black Americans, Appalachian residents, and Spanish-speaking groups. According to a 1974 CPSC staff report, "Consumer Safety Towards an Equal Opportunity", low-income minority groups encounter safety problems different from those of other citizens. Because they most often buy inferior or second-hand merchandise, these : consumers are exposed to greater risks of injury from : defective products. The objectives of the project were to disseminate fire safety information; promote awareness of flammability hazards and to investigate strategies that would be effective in disseminating CPSC Information in : low-income and minority communities. The program was administered in the following urban and rural communities: inner-city, low-income Black areas in Baltimore; general low-income and Spanish -speaking : communities - in Detroit; rural Appalachian sites in : Leslie County, Ky; and American-Indian Communities ] in New Mexico. One noteworthy aspect of the project was the use of local community based organizations to help teach fire ?safety and disseminate information to residents of theselected areas. Based on activities and experiences of fire safety oroiect. the-Comm???ir?n ic nAu/ , i.wtt jyivpm mg n manual ui * strategies which it hopies will be useful in administering : fire safety programs directed toward minorities in : disadvantaged communities. The manual is expected : to be completed the end of October. Washington - The Law Enforcement Assistance Administration has awarded $512,719 to the Southern ' Territory of the Salvation Army to continue its : delinquency prevention program. The Youth and Family Support Project of Winston-Salem is one of the five probrams supported by the award. It provides a wide range of prevention services to youth and their families. The Youth and Family Support Project is located in the Salvation Army's Southside Corps Center, adjacent to the Salvation Army Boys and Girls Club. This unique arrangement between the Salvation Army and L.E.A.A. is a research and demonstration approach to the problems of delinquency. The Project evaluation is being conducted by the National Council on Crime and Delinquency with the cooperation of the City of Winston-Salem's Human Services Department through C.E.T.A. funding. Additional information about the program is available from the Project Office at 788-8950. % , ANN ARBOR Mich. - A doctoral researcher at the University of Michigan reports that the rate of blacks committing suicide has increased 187 percent since the mid-1950s in the Detroit area. "Similar rises have occurred throughout the country," said Beverly Howze, a Ph.d candidate in clinical psychology who conducted a study of 341 Detroit area teenagers. "The greatest increases have been amont young people, age 15 to 34," she added. "While this ihcludes both sexes and all races, the figures are far higher for black youth." "This represents a complete reversal for the black race which has a history of rarely resorting to suicide," she said. In the study, she found "an alarming pattern of alienation and self-destructiveness." She said 16 percent of low-income black youth in the sample saw suicide as a "primary means of coping with problems." The trustees of North Carolina School of the Arts and the board members of the NCSA Foundation Inc. have announced their agreement to accept the Carolina Theatre building, offered as the gift of the Piedmont Publishing company to the Foundation, with the challenge of its restoration and renovation at an estimated cost of between S4.75 million-and $6.25 million, to be raised primarily from federal and out-of-state private sources. The announcement was made at a breakfast news conference at the Hyatt House, where state and local public officials, business and education leaders, NCSA trustees and Foundation board members and planning teams met with news media representatives to announce future plans for the Carolina Theatre. Renovation of the Carolina Theatre as a performance center for NCSA was firs seriously considered in-1.974. Since March of 1977, when Piedmont Publishing Company officially offered the Carolina Theatre as a _ t JL. A A - gin 10 in^5A, various federally funded studies have ascertained that the existing building, which was built in 1929: . Is structurally sound, and lends itself to the renovations and design modifications being proposed. ^^B?~ > <^B^ '^L' J ;*7 jffiJSIs JK i ?ol9 Rep.
