Byrd accom Technicians Needed To work In The Field By NANCY DUCKETT RALEIGH—One of the demands brought about by the rapid expansion of the off-farm phase of agricul ture is for more technicians to work in the field of or namental horticulture. In an attempt to help provide these technicians, four schools in the com munity college system are offering two-year programs in ornamental horticulture technology which should prepare students for em ployment in supervision of nurseries, greenhouse oper ations and garden shops as well as supervision or maintenance of golf courses. In addition to private concerns employ, ment may be found with state and federal govern ment agencies. The schools that will be offering this program in the fall are Catawba Valley Technical Institute, Hick ory; Forsyth Technical In stitute, Winston-Salem; Le. noir County Community College, Kinston and Sand hills Community College, Southern Pines. The work of an ornamen tal horticulture technician is rewarding and should attract both young men and women as long as they don’t mind hard work and getting their hands dirty. Since more people are “living” outdoors and con sequently are becoming more interested in their surroundings, the demand for persons trained in hor ticulture is on the rise. When guests come in for 1 patio dinner, the beauty of the surroundings be come just as important to the hostess as her culinary delights. As W. C. Warlick, orna mental horticulture tech nology instructor at For syth Technical Institute, explained, “Every home owner has become an ama teur horticulturist.” And he added, “This is a great hobby, particularly for the man who is not an ath lete.” It is not only our resi dential districts that are, THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, AUGUST IS, IMS. panied Mrs. Maude Spivey of Windsor to Bayboro and spent Wednesday an <1 Thursday with Mr. and Mrs. C.

Bowen, Sr., of Windsor. having their faces lifted, hut nearly every area of town has caught the enthu siasm for sudden beauty. Warlick said, “Just about everything is being land scaped these days. Look around at your service sta tions and industries.” “There is definitely a demand for the trained two-year student in orna mental horticulture,” said Warlick. Students who en ter this program can look forward to pleasing work and good compensation, realizing that the starting salaries aren’t as impres sive as in other fields. However, the sky is the limit as far as advance ment is concerned. Ornamental horticulture technology is not only an excellent field for men, but it has many attractions for women, too. Warlick said that women make excellent saleswomen in garden cen ters and adapt easily to work in the nursery busi ness.

Bob Scott said he is ’’personal ly committed to the free dom of choice concept” for school attendance in North Carolina. “I have said this con sistently, and I believe it has worked well in North Carolina,” Scott said. ”1 believe it is working well now. I think this is the approach that should be retained in our state. “However, HEW has seen fit to say it’s unacceptable, and they’re using the ham mer to federally appropri ated funds for local school boards to bring pressure to bear on the boards,” Scott said. “You’ll notice that the relationship is directly from the HEW office in Washington to the local school boards, bypassing j the State Superintendent of Public Instruction and the State Board of Educa tion. That’s why you don’t ever see these offi- j cials entering into the dis cussions and why it’s al ways the local school boards and their attorneys who are going to Washing ton to try to iron out the situation.” Scott said he disagrees with the state being by passed.

PRTVOTT, “The federal government made the decision to by pass state government,” Scott said. ‘The state had nothing to do with it.” Scott said that since the decision was made at the federal level, “the place to bring real pressure to bear is in the Congress of the United States.” Scott said members of Congress are the ones who enacted the Civil Rights Act, “they are the ones who appropriate funds to the HEW agency, and that’s where you can bring pressure to bear. “My opponent, Jim Gard ner, is the only congress man from North Carolina who is a member of the House Committee on Edu cation and Labor,” Scott said. “He is further a member of the special sub committee on education.
