Aug. 27-Sept. 2
Aries “The Ram’'(Mar.
21-Apr 20) You may well
boast of some of your
conquests they have not
come easily and the
moments of overwhelming
pride are now well
deserved. But it’s begin
ning to be a little trying to
some “not so fortunate”
chums. ‘Nuff said.
Taurus “The Bull" (Apr
21-May 21) Thinking small
can keep you from
success. Haven’t you,
psychologically, condi
tioned yourself to moving
within a small circle of
achievement? You will
have to break that block if
you are to move ahead.
Gemini “The Twins” (May
22-June 21) It is hard to
figure out who is fooling
whom; it’s always a fairly
simple process of deduc
tion to figure out who is
going to win out. In this
game of love it has to be
you, right. Gem?
Cancer “The Crab” (June
22-)uly 23) The most
important question: with
situations being what they
are in your romantic life,
why take chances on long
silences? Make the first
move, Luv. Remember you
are dealing with a
Scorpion...they usually
win in a battle of wits.
Leo “The Lion” (July
24-Aug 23) You are
caught up and fascinated
by the things that have to
be done. Usually you fimd
the future exciting and
the sky's the hmit. But
you must stop playing the
games other people want
you to play...if you are to
gain anything.
Virgo “The Virgin” (/iug
24-Sept 23) Instead of
wasting your time with
nonsense and p»etty
squabbles, try to give a
little. Just because tl.iings
don’t turn out exactly as
you expect is no reason to
go into a blue funk. After
the 26th everythinjg will
be settled.
Libra "The Baliance”
(Sept 24-Oct 23) A.ll that
discontentment that is
boiling up could be from a
lack of imagination. You
are letting a lot of
opportunities slip past
you, Luv. Keep your eyes
open as your biggest
break will come close to
the 3rd of the month.
Scorpio “The Scorpion”
(Oct 24-Nov 22) Cool
virbrations are being felt
by a close friend. Don't be
so quick in judging. Off
with the old, on with the
new is a bad policy where
friends, are concerned.
You leave hurt feelings in
your path. Sincere apolo
gies al'6! in order.
Sagittai'ius “The Archer”
(Nov 23-Dec 21) You are
staying too close to home.
Your generally courteous,
agreeable manner is
getting a bit edgy. Do
circulcite more and get
some new, fresh interests.
Pay more attention to
outside appearance and
dress;. Make yourself
important to “you.”
Capricorn “The Goat”
(Dec: 22-Jan 20) You are
near the end of a job that
has upset you for a long
time. Now make plans for
a better deal. You are
also on the verge of
making a large purchase,
a car? A house? Can-
derians are unlucky for
you so stay clear of them,
es pecially where money is
ccincerned.
Aquarius “Water Bear-
ei.'” (Jan 21-Feb. 19) You
may have a nasty fight
v/ith your “love” but
you’ll be back together
fihortly. Don't take sides

An affirmative action
plan to increase minority
employment in the Cam
den, New Jersey, area
construction industry was
imposed today by the U. S.
Department of Labor.
The plan, announced by
Secretary of Labor Peter
J. Brennan, establishes
annual goals for a
four-year period ending
June 30, 1977 to increase
utilization of minority
workers in 18 crafts by
contractors on federally-
involved construction
projects in Camden,
Salem, and Gloucester
counties.
This is the 63rd area
plan to be implemented.
Fifty-seven of them have
been voluntary “home
town” plans approved by
the Labor Department’s
Office of Federal Contract
Compliance (OFCC). Five
plans have previously
been imposed by OFCC, in
the Philadelphia; Wash
ington, D. C.; Atlanta; St.
Louis, and San Francisco
areas.
Under the plans con

tors holding contracts of
more than $10,000 on a

Consumer's
Corner
by Barry L. Boneno
Executive Director
High Point Consumer
Credit Counseling
You have budgeted
carefully and taken on
only those credit obliga
tions which seemed safe
with your regular income.
Suddenly there is a major
illness in your family, a
medical expense makes it
impossible for you to keep
up to date.
Don’t panic and assume
that unpaid bills can be
ignored. You have other
things on your mind, and
it is tempting - but unwise.
Don't hide by pulHng
down the shades and
refusing to answer the
phone, this will only delay
the problem. Not only
your present status, but
your future credit record
is at stake.
Don’t fib by telHng your
creditors that the “check
is in the mail”, this only
forces him to call back,
and increases his cost.
Do contact your credi
tors as soon as you realize
your inability to carry out
the contract you made
with him. Tell him the
exact facts. He may or
may not be a natural born
nice guy, but he knows
that it's in his best
business interest to help
you.
Discuss future pro
spects with him so he can
figure out temporary
alternatives which will
avoid loss, inconvience
and undue hardship to
you both.
There are laws to
protect you and non-profit
corporations such as
Consumer Credit Coun-
sehng to assist you. So
call High Point Consumer
Credit Counseling, Inc. at

need assistance.
At a summer camp near
Southern Pines, a smiling,
enthusiastic camper pre
pares to go for her second
horseback ride. Although
many North Carolina
children have similar
enjoyable camp exper
iences, this camper is
unusual. Instead of ex
changing her two legs for
the horse's four during
the short trail ride, she is
temporarily trading her
wheelchair for a different
perspective atop Gypsy, a
gentle palomino at Camp
Easter-in-the-Pines.
For here, in this
beautiful natural setting
of pine trees, rolling hills
and spring-fed lake,
handicapped children
and adults are encour
aged to do the unexpect
ed, surprising themselves
as well as their families.
The camp, sponsored
by the N. C. Easter Seal
Society and begun in
1964, is so popular that a
similar new facility. Camp
Sertoma, is planned near
Hanging Rock State Park.
Attendance this year at
Camp Easter was 340
campers throughout the
five, two-week sessions,
each being for a specific
age group ranging from 6
to 65.
Bill Kissam, director of
the camp, stated that last
year 35 different condi
tions were served by the
camp. A similat number
of disabilities are repre
sented this year, with
cerebral palsy being the
most prevalent. The trend
has been to include more
visually and hearing
impaired campers. One of
only three such camps in
the nation that do not
segregate disabilities.
Camp Easter stresses
individualized concern in
program planning and
living accommodations.
For example, the pool
has an entry ramp for
wheelchairs, a large
shallow area and sub
merged seats along the
sides. An adjustable
hospital bed is located in
each cabin. Equipment in
the shower stalls encour
ages self-help.

The individual camper
has some input into
program decisions
through a camp council.
With the variety of
activities offered, such as
boating, fishing, pup
petry, nature study and
arts and crafts, a variety
of interests can be met.
The camp staff, coming
from four nearby states,
receive training at the
camp consisting of one-
week orientation includ
ing a trip to the Lenox
Baker Cerebral Palsy
Hospital in Durham and
coaching on what to
expect from the campers.
These hardworking col
lege students, many of
whom come back summer
after summer, also parti
cipate in role playing and
sensitivity training.
At the last session of
the year ending Aug. 17,
one counselor is a
particular favorite, per
haps due to her English
accent. She is Mary
Dornhorst from London, a
special education student
traveling all over the
world, paying her own
way to work with
retarded children. One
year she worked in Israel.
She learned of Camp
Easter from Robert L.
Denny, executive director
of the Council on
Developmental Disabili
ties.
The Council provides
the camp with several
camp counselors at no
cost to the camp through
the PACE program, a
summer work program for
college students. The

Q. My garape was damaped
durinjT a windstorm. I spent
S20 taking photographs of the
damage in order to determine
the amount of my casualty
loss. Can I deduct the $20?
A. Yes. If you itemize de
ductions the cost of photo
graphs, including the pur
chase of film and developing
charges, for the purpose of es
tablishing or computing your
casualty loss deduction are
deductible as a miscellaneous
deduction. Do not include the
$20 as part of your casualty
loss.
Q. I was just promoted and,
as a result, I’m getting a sub
stantial pay increase. I want
to make estimated tax pay
ments to avoid one big tax
bill next year, but I’ve already
missed the April and June
deadlines for paying the first
two installments of 1973 es-
itimated income tax. What can
i I do?
I A. You can still file a decla
ration of estimated income tax
—Form 1040-ES—, but you
must do so by September 17,
1973. Your estimated tax
should be paid in equal in
stallments on September 17,
1073, and January 15, 1974.
If you tile your return and
]iay the balance due by Janu
ary 31, 1974, you need not
make your final estimated tax
payment. The same rules ap
ply to filing amended declara
tions of estimated tax.
Forms 1040-ES and in
structions are available at
any IRS office.
Q. Who can represent a tax
payer at an IRS audit?
A. Generally, attorneys, cer
tified public accountants, and
individuals enrolled to prac
tice before the Internal Reve
nue Service may represent a
taxpayer at any stage of
the IRS examination-appeals
process. These three stages
are the audit examination,
district conference and appel-
late hearing. The person who
prepared your return (and
signed it as the preparer)
if he is not otherwise eligible
to practice before the IRg,
may represent you only at the
audit examination level. In
addition, this representation
may encompass only matters
concerning the tax liability
for the year covered by the
return he prepared.
Q. Is it true that a student
can be exempt from income
tax withholding?
A. Yes. Students and other
individuals are exempt from
withholding if they did not
owe tax last year, expect to
owe none in 1973 and have
filed a Withholding Exemp
tion Certificate (Form W-4E)
with their employers.
However, if tax has already
been withheld this year, the
taxpayer must file a return
next year to have it refunded.
