Friday conjures up images of meetings, deadlines and re sponsibilities. Yet the name of the woman largely responsible for the smooth flow of UNC President Friday's office is not widely known. Zona Norwood, administrative assis tant to Friday, is responsible for many administrative duties, which she accepts with a smile. The gracious woman, with a rich, plea sant voice, dark hair and glasses, has only words of praise for Friday. "The way Mr. Friday lets us work is the thing I ap preciate most," she said. "He gives us a great deal of freedom." - Norwood has been in the General Ad ministration office for 14 years; She started as secretary to the president and four years later moved into her present position. Norwood said her duties were constantly shared, with the current secfe tary to the president, Mamie Yarborough.; The two women's offices seem to run like well-oiled machinery. Neat stacks of papers either waiting to be typed, sent to various offices, or filed, sit on one corner of Norwood's large desk. Bookshelves line, the side wall and books fill every space. An inch-thick calendar sits on one desk corner. Personal touches include plants and, most notably, a picture of Norwood's two daughters, aged seven and 1 1 . During her limited spare time, Norwood devotes much of her attention to her children. In spite of her lack of free time, she never thinks about resigning, she said. "I think I'm a better mother from working," she said. "I think it's good for them (her children). It's good for me." Excitement and challenge are two words Norwood uses to describe her job. i OTHSuzanne Conversano Zona Norwood, President Friday's administrative assistant Excitement comes sometimes in the form of nationally-known people. She has had contact with Roger Mudd, Charles Kuralt, Helen Hays and Gov. Jim Hunt. Hunt played an important role in Norwood's most memorable experience. Friday asked Norwood to contact some one on the telephone. "I thought he said, 'Get Gov. Hunt on the phone,' which I did," she said. "Then I told Mr. Friday that I' had Gov. Hunt on the phone." Friday then told her that she had heard him incorrectly; he wanted to speak to former Gov. Jim Holshouser Jr., a mem ber of the Board of Governors. "I pan icked, but I thought it was so funny, too." She said. Hunt probably still wonders why Friday called him and talked about totally unimportant matters. Norwood said she planned to continue in her present spot as long as possible. "Mr. Friday will be retiring in a few years and I don't know what that will bring." Holiday part of campaign against loneliness By TERESA CURRY DTH Staff Writer There's another holiday this weekend, one that is part of a nationwide campaign against the loneliness of the el derly. Marian McQuade of West Virginia, the founder of National Grandparent's Day, said she wanted to elimi nate that loneliness. "Being on the State Commission for Aging, working with the elderly and visiting nursing homes made me aware of the loneliness of the elderly," McQuade said. The first step in McQuade's campaign was calling Gov. John D. Rockefeller IV of West Virginia to see if he would set aside a state holiday. Rockefeller responded by designating a Sunday in May for the- elderly, McQuade said. The following Nyear McQuade wrote all the other governors. "About half of them sent me proclamations saying they too had set aside a Sunday in May," she said. West Virginia's Senator Jennings Randolph then in troduced a bill into the Senate to make Grandparent's Day a national holiday. He felt the day should be in September since there were already several holidays in May, McQuade said. Former president Jimmy Carter then signed a procla mation declaring the first Sunday after Labor Day as National Grandparent's Day in'l978. The next year it was declared a permanent holiday fter Congress passed it. V This year Grandparent's Day falls on Sunday, Sept. 1 3 . "I was originally thinking of shut-ins when I asked about having the day set aside, but then it branched out to include all grandparents," McQuade said. "Popularity for the holiday has been growing yearly," she said. "Even zoos, libraries, and two army camps in Germany celebrated it last year and plan to do it again . this year." . kSheaid Hallmark Card Companies and a public rela tions .firm with Whitman's Chocolate had helped pro f'piotl Grandparent's Day. , ' 1 think the spirit of Grandparent's Day should be iopked at like that of Christmas. You shouldn't put it away as you. do decorations on Christmas, but you , should keep the spirit of the holiday all year round." Task force to study possible broadcast of meetings By ALAN CHAPPLE DTH Staff Writer North Carolina Gov. Jim Hunt has es tablished a task force to study the possi bility of public broadcast coverage of state government meetings and activities. The state's Agency for Public Telecom munications recently received a $10,500 grant from the Z. Smith Reynolds Foun dation for the study. Joel Fleishman, vice chancellor of Duke University, and Jim Goodmon, president and executive director of Capitol Broad casting, were appointed by Hunt on Tues day to chair the panel. The remaining 23 or-24 members of the task force will be named by the governor this week . "The new electronic era of satellites, cable television and computers provides an opportunity to make government ac tivities and services available to every citi zen," Hunt said. "This task force will include people with a variety of backgrounds and phi losophies," he said. . "Among them will be legislators, jour nalists and educators. Their job will be to suggest how telecommunications technol ogy can bring government closer to the people." , North Carolina is the first state govern- ment to investigate legislative broadcasts on a continuous, statewide basis, said Michael Rierson, assistant director for the Agency for Public Telecommunications . "Ideally, we want to find a way to pro vide uninterrupted, impartial coverage of the state government and its agencies," he said. "What we are looking at is 'nar rowcasting' a method of reaching a specific audience, the entire public inter ested in government." Co-chairman Goodman said the appeal of broadcast coverage of state government was growing. "There has been an indica tion that the public has developed a real appetite for news and governmental af- -fairs," he said. "In standard electronic journalism, coverage is brief. With this? (state broadcast coverage), a whoteL House or Senate meeting will become ac-? , cessible." . Methods of coverage being considered, include television, radio and cable. "We" ae not limiting ourselves to one method of distribution," Rierson said. VWe are-, exploring every option, since what we have here is unique." t The task force, which hopes to release the findings of its study within six to nine months, plans to meet by the end of the ' month to explore distribution options, costs and items of coverage. Should the task force recommend to implement the program, it could expand even further. "If this thing works there is the possibility that it might expand to the city and town governments," he said. 'People could keep informed with what is going on without even leaving their houses." , , Most people connected with the task force agree that the program will have positive results. "What it would pay back to those who use it would be a thousand fold the cost," Rierson said.

"We've had to replace 10,000 sets of surgical gowns during the past year at a cost of $40,000," said Gene Brown, di rector of Central Supporting Services at North Carolina Memorial Hospital. "We can only surmise that they are being sto len. They disappear some place." The shortage of gowns is not exclusive to NCMH. In fact, the shortage was so bad at High Point Memorial Hospital recently that the surgical schedule was delayed because of a shortage of scrub suits. " ; - The popularity of the gowns with the public has, become enormous. In addi tion to the great number of outfits re ported missing from hospitals, many merchants tarrying them have had prob- lems keeping the suits, "which cost from $15 to $20, jn stqek.V: Steve Jam,tfep6t1manager at Gen-., eral Linen, Cp;', said his company had been bombarded with calls from students wanting to buythe suits. "They'll do anything to. gerone,'r he said. , The primary Teabn for the sudden popularity of Jnaijutfit is its comfort. "The gowns afTcalfy popular clothes," Brown said., t--Jt . Clifton" Hi , laundry and linen di ,c tor at MosesCone Hospital in Greens boro, agreed with Brown. "They are absolutely, positively comfortable. ' Women like to wear them as pajamas. The suits are comfortable to lounge around in and you can jump right into bed with them. Fashionwise, I think they look horrible." Although the uniforms are made in both men's and women's sizes, Hix said the men's suit was more popular. And even thought they come in green, blue and white, the most popular color is green. To curb the disappearance of gowns from hospitals, officials have resorted to actions varying from simply marking the gowns so they can be easily identified to supplying the gown with a metal de vice that sets off an alarm when the gown is taken through hospital doors. "We have forbidden any employees from walking out of the building wear ing one," said Barry Ward, a High Point Memorial spokesman. "We're giving special attention to people leaving with packages, although we're not searching people." To prevent thefts, Moses Cone Hos pital has decided to offer the suits in the gift shop, according to Hix. They are identical to the ones used by the hospital except they are not stamped with the hospital's symbol. While hospital gowns have become a popular fashion trend, it is possible that continued thefts may cause hospitals to pass their losses onto' the patients. "If thefts continue, hospital bills will have to reflect the replacement costs," Ward said. ALL FLAVORS WNUTSI ' .'Rrill'S--'' lb. ( i -J c"3 n LVwJu UU Ivi?
