THE CABOUNIAN RALEIGH, N.C., SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 24 1973 TWO DEATHS, {Continued from p»ge 1) ‘going CO get ner ”, She further relat^, according to police, that Juanita calM the police ind told them of the telephone hreat. In response to the elephone call, it was alleged that three car loads of officers responded to the telephone call. However, according, to the report of Mrs. Green, they left before the shooting. ; The report further showed 'that a car, driven by a woman. Identified as Lillie Mae Wil liams, carrying the two men, prrived at her daughter’s house, oboiit 3 p.m. The two men are reported to have gotten out of the car, parked in the rear of the accused woman's house, and ^‘ran up to her face”. It was then, it is alleged that Juanita brought a 22 caliber pistol into display and began pumping its pontents into the two men. Johnson is said to have fallen on the spot, while Swann ran to the Iront of a building, which houses Ihe laundry and fell. ; There were said to be conflicting reports as to mo- lives. It is said to have been Established that there had been h love affair between Mrs. fotton and Swann. The driver of the car is said to have reported ihat Swann and Mrs. Cotton iised to go together, but Swann J'quit" her. Mrs. Green is said jo have told police that her daughter had “quit" Swann. . Police are said to have leported having gone to the house, in response to a telephone call. “PLOY” (Continued from page 1) said, “Much ol this is in preparation of Lightner's cam paign to seek the mayor’s post. (C.E. Lightner, local business man, is mayor pro-tern.) In the opinion of the holder of the "ploy” idea, Councilman Robert W. Shoffnerof the public works committee is likely to follow Sanderson’s example by resigning. Sanderson’s presence on the council has been conceded by most observers to have been "traditionalist” and “conserv ative.” Public works programs that would benefit low income citizens do not seem to have lost a friend in Sanderson’s resigna tion. In November the council must develop five electoral districts. Sanderson is understood to be helping with this move. Under the new system, residents will vote for a council in which five members are dlected by districts and the mayor and two council mem bers are elected at large. In the past seven council membo’s have been elected at large and then the mayor selected from among their number. There was general agreement among those interviewed at midweek that Sanderson's re signation had set the political pot boiling somewhat earlier than usual. The impact on Sou’' Raleigh remains to be assessed fully. Dr. C. W. Ward, president of the Raleigl. ..^x NAACP, also thought Carson should be offered the post. "If the mayor really wants to carry out his expressed ideal of having more v.’omen represent atives ■' ■ E. Lockhart, a retired ''n able administrali n ideal choice," Dr. War id, Mrs. Elizabeth Reade, widow of former City Councilman Jim Reade, is presently the only woman on the council. STUDENTS (Continued from page 1) was reported that a chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity is being set up. This is not peculiar to big white colleges. Comments made by many black students at Chapel Hill reflect the new era of black student thought. "This university is geared to middle-class white students, and there is no place for black students unless they create it themselves," said Warren Car- son, Jr., a junior English major from Tryon. Carson is chair man of the university's Black Student Movement (BSM), and most of the blacks at Chapel Hill appear to share his assessment. And Arthur Uttley, a sopho more from Fuquay-Varina, ex plained why he could not join a white fraternity. “To me,” he said, "a fraternity expresses a sense of brotherhood, and to me it's hard to feel brotherhood with whites." All black students do not share the same belief. Many of them feel thaf ’ the rising increase in black enrollment, black participation in athletics and extra-curricular activities are serving to bring about a rapport that will bring true brotherhood. And Richard Epps, a senior from Wilmington who last year l^ame the first black to be elected president of the student body in Chapel Hill, said: “Hopefully, white students will soon understand that the idea that assimilation is the only way to have good human relations is not the only way to look at the thing." And while some observers see the development toward separ ation as disturbing, others are optimistic. Archie Nichols, a black graduate student and part-time instructor at Chapel Hill, who entered the university as a freshman in 1963, says condi tions at the school have vastly improved for blacks since ’63 Rev. Preston Jones, a United Methodist minister recently selected as chaplain for black students at the Chapel Hill campus, said he generally opposes the notion of separa tism, but "if this is what brings one to a know ledge of himself and expressing himself, then good” The story revealed that the general attitude of separation found at UNC did not prevail in some of the other schools. The University of South Carolina, reported to have 1,000 blacks, reported that even though there were separate black activities, they were found to be no deterrent to a wholesome relationship The University of North Carolina at Charlotte, was reported as having bUik fraternities and sororities, but most blacks had while room mates.

He received his bachelor's degree from Shaw University in 1940, his master’s degree in secondary education at North Carolina Central in 1951 and has done considerable work on his doctorate, at Duke University. His supporters point to Ihe fact that his administration at Hillside High makes a perfect case for his elevation to the top post in state education. He has steered the ship of Hillside in the most trying time of its history, the transition from segregation to integration. He has the support of one of the largest integrated faculties in the state and one of the smoothies! working integrated student bodies. The Durham City Association of Educators attested to this fact by unanmiously endorsing him for vice president this year. Should he be elected to the number two spot, he will automatically move to the top spot in 1974. When the 49.900-member organization was merged in 1969, Mrs. Ruth Jones, Rocky Mount, who was president of the black North Carolina Teachers Association, was selected to head the organization. She had a successful tenure. Mr. Lucas is the first one of color, to campaign for the post. He has sent a brochure to every member, which tells the story of his contributions and accom plishments in the field of education, on the level of state and national levels.

She received her early education in the public schools and high school diploma from Saint Augustine's College. The A.B. degree was awarded by Shaw University and the Master of Arts and the Professional Diplomas were earned at Columbia University, N.Y. At the First Baptist Church, Mrs. Kelly began her musical career by serving as youth organist for the Sunday School. As years passed and she matured, she was appointed church organist and choir director. Years later she was named minister of music, a position she held until her retirement. Her teaching career began at Washington High School here in Raleigh in 1926. She held the positions of teacher of English, Social Science, and music director. From 1953 until her retirement in 1967 she served as music director at J. W. Ligon Jr. Sr. High School. During her tenure at Ligon the school won many music honors - slate and section wide. Under her leadership the music club was inoucted into the National Modern Music Master Chapter 745. The school and the pubne looked forward to the annual musical program given by the Ligon Chorus and Ensemble under the direction of Mrs. Kelly. Through the years. Mrs. Kelly week after he refused to resign. “1 was told that I had to go, and that if I didn’t want my resignation to be accepted, I was terminated," Telzlaff said after his pro forma resignation was accepted. He also said that OEO’s acting director, Howard Phillips, had refused the firing with him. Telziaff, the third head of the program in 27 months to leave under pressure, said his dis missal was part of an effort "to kill the program or at least to interject politics into the work of antipoverty lawyers and destrov their professionalism.” 'His predecessor, Fred Speak- ■ ';irt the post saying he was •disluT bed" about the "political interlr'“n'’e” of vice president Agnew ■'d Ihers in the legal services rpr'- am.

Noting that “pink slips" were given to the 34-member Nation al Advisory Committee - which has served, since the agency’s beginning in 1965, to join members of bar association, poor persons receiving legal services, and Ihe Government - Talzlaff said, "I think he (Phillips) wants to take a different tack in running the taught piano a'nd organ at her legal services program.

As a person of deep commun ity concern, Mrs. Kelly inspired many boys and girls to strive for and to reach high goals not only in the field of music, but also in areas that go to build finer manhood and womanhood. One of her extra-curricular was her weekly column in Ihe CAROLINIAN under the by line he wants to warfare on it, discredit certain parts of it and use it for political ends." Talzlaff. who said his dis missal was only the latest in a series of "acts of political interference." cited the ap pointments of a number of officials in the legal serviere headquarters whom he said were “of questionable qualifi cation." Included in that group was Marshall Boarman, the new chief of evaluation, a post which Telzlaff. said was "where most professionally demanding posi tion in the program. Yet here he (Phillips) appoints a man who is not even a lawyer " Telzlaff’s dismissal came following a reaffirmation ol support for the program by the American Bar Association’s House of Delegates However, Prisident Nixon had ordered the program phased out in his budget presented to Congress Jan. 29. Last year. Mr. Nixon vetoed a plan under whicii legal services would have been made an independent public corpora tion. but similar legislation may be forthcoming again this year. The legal services program involves 2.500 lawyers workir.j WASHINGTON- A federal authorized evaulation of the Community Action Program (CAP) funded by the Office of Economic Opportunity has given new fuel to opponents of Nixon’s planned termination of CAP. The report praised CAP as "highly constructive” in meet ing the goals of the Nixon administration,” says that local community action programs "are becoming very positive forces in their and can aid cp: rising “t(\ the 'cKallengfp of revenue sharing and father forms of government decen tralization.” The until-last week secret report described the Nixon administration’s concept of community action one of mobilizing, nqt merely spend ing, anti-poverty resources, and states that this criteria is being met. A federal evaluation team investigated programs in 591 urban and rural communities from 1965 to 1972 and concluded that they have been successful in achieving that goal. CAP "is already producing highly con structive results,” the report said. Howard Phillips, appointed by Nixon as acting director to phase-out OEO has challenged the credibility of the report, charging that it is the work of “various people identified with previous administration po licies." Phillips had been charged with suppressing the favorable re port but after its existence was publicly disclosed by other sources he permitted its limited circulation. The report is expected to be used by congressmen interested in retaining community action programs and keeping them independent from becoming financially dependent on local governments which may not be inclined to use revenue sharing funds to keep them alive. A leading congressional supporter of CAP is Senator Jacop Javits (R.N.Y) who believes the elimination of the program is "contrary" to Ihe spirit if not the letter of the Equal Opportunity Act, the enabling legislation for OEO. Community action agencies around the country have been active in programs designed to benefit the poor in the areas of employment, education and health. From their inception they have been charged with stirring up the poor against "the establishment” The new evaluation report concluded, however, that “municipal and county or local governments have been ex tremely supportive of com munity action programs,” at least since 1968. On a recent television news show, Phillips retort to that part of the report was that if local governments were so favorable to CAP, they will provide funding for them from revenue sharing proceeds. He neglected to point out National Black News Service however, that when the evalua tion was being made, city ofiicials had not been asked to stretch revenue-sharing funds to cover community action programs. Meanwhile the 98-member organization coalition sponsor ing the National Mobilization for Domestic Unity in Washing ton Feb. 20 reports that support for a national lobbying effort. Thousands more are expected to lobby in the halls of congress on Feb. 20, he said. YMCA.

Southern’s Andrew Frazier Goes From Sub To Superstar commui^llflk”: BATON ROUGE, La. - It 5 no 'Surprise to those who watched unfnumii^. in a basketball in his hand that Andrew Frazier, in just his second season at Southern University, is scoring points at a burning pace. The 5-10 native of Tamp, Fla. currently is the leading scorer in the Southwestern Athletic Conference with a 24.2 point-per-game average. It has bMn a year of miracles for Frazier and for Southern. The Baton Rouge campus was closed Nov. 16 through Jan. 3 and Coach Carl Stewart took his cagers into a 19-game schedule with less than two weeks continuous practice. Southern finished 9-15 last season and won only two conference games while losing ten SWAC encoun ters. Things didn't look too bright. Southern has compensated for its relative lack of height with a devastating fast break that has netted 96.5 points a game. Frazier and 5-11 sopho more Darrell Glasper - who played under Stewart at Mc Kinley High School in Baton Rouge - form the quickest guard duo in the league and together they have accounted for 31 points, ten assists, seven rebounds and four steals each game. Last season, Frazier sat through most of a frustrating campaign and finished with a 4.3 average. He played in 16 games, scoring ''9 points and was the team's fourth guard behind senior Larry McTier (23.3 ppg ), senior Hal Lewis (111 ppg.) and freshman Ernest Hamilton (7.8 ppg ). Now Frazier is threatening to better McTier’s scoring feats and already has single-game highs of 42, 34, and 33 pints to his credit. The 42 pints he scored against Mississippi Val ley State College were only six short of the immortal Bob Love's school record of 48. “Nobody can slop Frazier one-on-one," Stewart said of the shortest man on a short team. A product of Middleton High School, he led his team to a 27-3 record his senior year and its second consecutive state tour nament. His 29 0 ppg. average earned him All-South honors. Frazier found three senior guards ahead of him when he arrived at Southern - McTier, Lewis and 6-0 Willie James - so he learned more than he played. His best effort as a freshman was 15 points against Alcorn in Lorman, .Miss Frazier is the man who personifies that hustle. He rarely lakes a rest, although he gets knocked to the floor about five times each game. When he scored his 42 points, he made If of 18 foul shots. But he also leads Ihe Jaguars in assists. And with five seconds to play and Souther lied 85-85 with Prairie View recently. "Frazier made the pass to AI Jackson under the basket that won the game for us,” Stewart beammed “See, he’s not just a scorer,” the first-year Jaguar coach added, “he has learned to control our offensive attack as well.” FILM If you’re looking for lo^v monthly paymeiitSsyou should look at KINGWOOD ciHUS-ossa (Si (continued from page 1) Proceeds from the premiere will be donated to the Tri-Col- lege Scholarship Fund benefit- ting Shaw University, Federal City College and Washington Technical Institute.
