How did she vote on the $180 million bond referendum for roads In the southeast? I Intend to research that and find out." Carr said the city has not been responsive to the predominant ly black sections, opting to put me bulk of resources Into oUher areas. Despite increased calls for city funds, the westslde hasn't moved with the rest of the city. "I think the westslde has been neglected, not only for the past two years, but for the last sever al years," he said. An example, Carr pointed out. Is the lack of access to public recreation facilities In the dis trict. While Revolution and York Road Renaissance parks have good facilities, the city's fee rates for their use often prices lower-income residents out of using them. That has a negative Impact on the the entire com munity, and Carr hopes to capi talize on that. The young, he added, are most affected by the city policy, which he said, leaves them with little else to do with their free time. /They are looking for someone they can look up to," he said. "If they fall where we have failed to succeed, we'll be lost as a peo ple." ■The 1987 campaign was a val uable experience, Carr said, and hie plans to put It to use. Liken ing the political arena to sports, darr said he will emphasize a team effort. •"I learned that politics Is like fbotball," he said. "When you're on defense, you've got to get diown Into your stance, you've gpt to have a strong committee, someone who Is dedicated, a better voter registration drive, be better able to respond to the community, and No. 1 of all is lislng common sense." ■A better-prepared organiza tion, Carr said, should help him get his message to voters. He ■Would like to see his campaign rim like a well-oiled machine. i'There won't be any sqeaks, and If there are, we ll have the oil oh hand." WAYNE C. ALEXANDER, R A.
