By ERIC LUSK
Staff Writer
Decision '89, a conference designed
to promote alcohol awareness in the
college community, kicks off Tuesday
at the Omni Durham Hotel.
The two-day seminar, sponsored by
the N.C. Alcoholic Beverage Control
Commission and the Governor's High
way Safety Program, begins at noon
with Bobby Jones, former UNC and
NBA basketball player, speaking on
his dealings with alcohol while playing
professional basketball.
Other speakers slated to speak are
N.C. Lt. Gov. Jim Gardner; N.C. First
Lady Dottie Martin; Lonise Bias,
mother of former University of Mary
land basketball player Len Bias; David
Anderson, who is nationally known for
his work on alcohol-related issues; Mi
chael Ford, son of former President
Gerald Ford; and Eileen Stevens, win
ner of several awards for her campaign
against hazing.
"We're hoping that through this
conference we can get students and
administrators to think about making
more responsible decisions concerning
alcohol use," said Larry Height, chief
agency legal specialist for the ABC
Commission.
The conference will offer more than
30 forums on alcohol-related issues
such as the making and spotting of fake
IDs and hazing in the Greek system.
The conference also includes forums
with state agents and ABC Commis
sion members, Height said.

"Hopefully we can let people know
not just the laws dealing with alcohol
use, but also the risks and dangers young
people can get into by experimenting
and abusing these substances."
While the conference is basically
geared for college students, faculty
members and administrators will be
able to come away with some valuable
information, he said.
Bias, whose son died of a drug over
dose, headlines Tuesday's evening
events, he said.
"All 16 public universities in North
Carolina along with 20 to 25 private
colleges have been notified and plan to
send student and faculty representi
tives," said Paul Powell, chairman of
the N.C. ABC Commission.
Gardner plans to attack the alcohol
and drug problem first with his speech
Wednesday and then through support
of legislation dealing with stricter laws
and improved treatment for alcohol and
drug offenders. .
"Drugs and alcohol are the No. 1
problem we face in North Carolina
today," Gardner said in a telephone
interview.
A broad package of legislation deal
ing with the drug and alcohol problem
is in the works, he said.
Gardner proposes drug education
beginning in kindergarten.
"We're waiting too late if we try to
educate students when they are in col
lege. Kids in fourth, fifth and sixth
grade are already experimenting."
Gardner also noted that drugs today
are more lethal than in the past.
"In the '60s we dealt primarily with
marijuana and cocaine, but today it's so
much worse with drugs like crack out
on the streets."
Freed former ANC leaders
welcomed home in rally
From Associated Press reports
CROWN MINES, South Africa
More than 70,000 blacks chanting
in triumph welcomed freed leaders of
the outlawed African National Con
gress (ANC) on Sunday at the largest
anti-government rally in the country's
history.
Virtually every aspect of the rally
including repeated praise for the
ANC's guerrilla campaign vio
lated security laws, but police kept
their distance. ,
Government-run television re
ported the rally as the top item on the
evening news.
"Today, the ANC has captured
center stage in South Africa," said
Walter Sisulu, the group's former
general secretary, from a podium
erected beneath huge banners of the
ANC and the South African Commu
nist Party.
He and six ANC colleagues were
freed unconditionally from prison
Oct. 15. All but one had spent at least
25 years in prison.
East Berliners mourn fugitives
BERLIN At least 20,000 East
Berliners observed a moment of sir
lence Sunday for those killed while
attempting to flee over the Berlin
Wall, the first such public mourning
since Communist authorities built the
wall in 1961.
The observance came as the East
Berliners gathered in a downtown
square for a rally called by Mayor
Erhard Krack to discuss reform.
Similar meetings were organized
News in Brief
in the southern cities of Leipzig and
Karl-Marx-Stadt as part of a govern
ment effort to stop activists from
staging protests to voice their de
mands. All three cities have been shaken
by large pro-democracy protests in
recent weeks. Protesters rallied in at
least three cities Saturday night.
In East Berlin, microphones were
provided for speakers from the crowd,
one of whom called for the minute of
silence.
Congress denounces Ortega
WASHINGTON Congres
sional leaders on Sunday joined Presi
dent Bush's denunciation of Nicara
guan leader Daniel Ortega and vowed
to stand by a promise to provide
humanitarian aid to the Contra rebels
through next February's elections.
At the same time, despite the ex
change of hostilities between Bush
and Ortega in Costa Rica, admini
stration officials indicated it was
unlikely they would seek a renewal
of military aid for the U.S.-backed
rebels at this time.
Senate Majority Leader George
Mitchell, D-Maine, said Ortega's
threat to call off a 19-month cease
fire between his Sandinista forces
and the Contras was "a very unwise
move, particularly the timing of it."
Mitchell was interviewed on
NBC's "Meet the Press."
