Glover's behalf
In addition to Glover's reinstatement, the community
group has "demanded" in a written statement
the resignation of Brian Cormier, general
manager of the Metropolitan YMCA; the resighation
of Patterson Avenue YMCA Board of
Management members who allowed Glover to be
"fired," and the resignations of Patterson Y board
members who are not paid members of the Patterson
Avenue YMCA.
To bring attention to its concerns, the group has
scheduled a demonstration outside of the Central
YMCA at 775 West End Blvd. 09 Friday at noon,
said Evelyn Terrvt the group's spokesman.
"It's ultimately necessary that we demonstrate
our displeasure with this situation,'.' said Terry.
"We have to do something to create some momentum
and to bring it to the attention of the masses of
people.
"The firing of Richard Glover was a malicious
and capricious act," said Terry, reading from the

defense effort!
By ROBIN ADAMS
Chronicle Assistant Editor
North Carolina's NAACP will support the Darryl
Hunt Defense Committee, said State Field
Director Carolyn Coleman earlier this week.
Hunt, a 19-vear-old Winston-Salem narivp
charged with the rape .and murder of WinstonSalem
Sentinel copy editor Deborah B. Sykes on
on Aug. 10.
Coleman said state NAACP attorneys will support
the efforts of Hunt's attorneys and will provide
financial assistance on his behalf.
"We won't be providing additional lawyers for
Hunt, because he already has attorneys," said Col-'
eman. "But we will be offering financial assistance
to provide things that are needed for the case, like
expert witnesses. We will also be providing moral
support and will be consulting with Hunt's attorneys
throughout the case."
North Ward Alderman Larry Little, who
organized both the Darryl Hunt Defense Committee
and the Darryl Hunt Defense Fund, said the
NAACP's involvement in the case is a significant
development.
"Basically, they have a network to give us," said
Little. "They have access to things and can provide
technical assistance, like jury selection and
eyewitness identifications.
"I feel justice has a better chance of being served
if groups like the NAACP will monitor this case."
Pat Hairston, president of Winston-Salem's
NAACP chapter, which had requested the state
organization's assistance, said he is elated that it
consented to help. He also said he thinks the
organization will Jje instrumental in Hunt "at least

"We will be involving the same machinery that
freed Lenell Geter (a 26-year-old black engineer in
Greenville, Texas, who was convicted and jailed for
a crime of which he was later found to be
innocent)," Hairston said. "Whatever the NAACP
can do will be a help and I'm real pleased about
that."
In addition to NAACP support, Little said the

Little said the city's four black aldermen also

on a radio talk show to discuss the case.
Little said he has been in contact with a reporter

Little and Hunt's supporters contend that the

the case.
