According to the article, the
number of Negroes registered In
the South was around 1,000,000
in 1952 and around 1,414,000 In
1980," the professors my it* point
ing out an Increase In voter regis
tration in the South as well. "This
represented an increase In the per
centage of Negroes of voting age
registered from 20 to 28. Os the
Southern states, Tennessee has the
best record for Negro voter regis
tration with some 40 per cent on
the rolls; Mlsnlsclppl had the
worst record, hardly eight per
cent.”

BEAU SALLY
BY BALLY SHAW
DEAR SALLY: I'm a salesman,
and quite successful at It because
of the fact that I’ve established
many good, solid friendships a
mong the businessmen upon whom
I call regularly. Maybe, though,
I've been TOO friendly with some
of these clients—because I am re
ceiving an ever-increasing num
ber of Invitations to the weddings
and reception of some of their
daughters. I’m wondering if I'm
obligated to respond to these in
vitations with wedding gifts. This
oould add up to a slseable cost,
rate has not continued, they
my, because of “a determined
effort ... by white race ex
tremists to halt Negro regis
tration efforts.”
“In 1991 the Civil Rights Com
mission reported (hat In 100 coun
ties In eight Southern states there
was ‘reason to believe that sub
stantial discriminatory disfran
chisement of Negroes still exists.’
The Commission found political
participation was equally wide
spread In Alabama. Mississippi,
Henroin f nnH
Carolina.“ the article states.
The authors say that the recent
voter registration drives In many
areas of the South may have off
set the effects of discriminatory
disfranchisement. "The registra
tion drlvee are not over yet and it
may take years before their ef
fectiveness can be assessed.” they

DEAR SALESMAN TOM:
Maybe yon should look at this

DEAR BALLY: I'm a girl of 16,

have been dating a certain boy
rather regularly for several
months. He’s a Junior In my

have always set regarding my so
cial activities. They permit me to
date only on Friday and Saturday
nights during the school year, and
my boy friend wants to go out
with me on other nights during
the week. too. He's hinted that
my parents ore much too strict
and narrow-minded about this.
What do you say? RESTRICTED.
DEAR RESTRICTED: If
anyone Is being “narrow-mind

This happens to i e case of
certain friends wh -■ visit now

visit us In our home and are tak
ing their leave, we always walk
with them to their car or. If the
weather Is bad, we stand In our
doorway and wave to them as they
drive off. It seems too rude and
abrupt to do otherwise. BD.H.
