The unusual name of the family can be traced to the best-seller 4'Roots" by Alex Haley, according to family members. The family also traces its roots to Indians who settled in this country long ago. The Rev. James Hillian, the head of the family branch in Winston-Salem, reports that he has found a Hillian listed in the telephone directory of every city he has visited, and when he con. tacted these Hillians, Hillian says, they were able to establish a _ relationship. / j A* * - - s*i Luc reunion, silver trays , were presented to Hillian and his wife for their leadership and faithfulness.

TwHvi? vears after the much publicized court-ordered busing that triggered the violence, and in the first year that a judge has not been overseeing the system, several students vaguely recalled hearing stories of the early days of desegregation. Now, said Patti O'Neil, 16, the mood is quite different. "We just stick together. It's like one big family here," said O'Neil, who stopped examining her junior class schedule to hug a black girlfriend.

"It took us 45 minutes to an hour to get school started because you had to keep the students on the buses while others went through the metal detector." The school of 1,020 students now is 37 percent black, 34 percent white, 17 percent Hispanic, 11 percent Asian and 2 percent American Indian.
