Thursday. October 8. 1981 Ebony Fashion Fair Slated By popular demand, the spectacular and sensational Ebony Fashion Fair returns to the campus of Elizabeth City State University Tuesday at 8 P.M., in Moore Hall auditorium. With an accent on the fullness of fall fashions, the show is entitled, “The Look of Elegance.” Bringing this highly professional troupe of fashion models and designs to ECSU is the Elizabeth City Chapter of National Epicureans, Inc. The civic minded organization, that supports everything from student scholarships to community • service organizations and projects, brings the Ebony Fashion Fair to town to help raise fund in support of the Elizabeth City State University Foundation’s “Half-Million Dollar’’ Challenge Fund Drive. “Who knows, if our efforts are successful in helping the Foundatioq reach its goal of raising the funds needed to begin initial construction on ECSU’s outdoor physical education and athletic facility, some local fans just might come out, next year, and help grace the new Carrie M. and Sam Roebuck Stadium with sparkling and elegant fall fashions,” says Mrs. Valeria Vaughan, local Fair Chairperson and wife of ECSU Athletic Director Robert L. Vaughan. fHOLLOWELL’S\ t A >re , Q ELECTRICAL^^I^P® i HOLLOWELL ' ' f 1 id .OWNER (Licensed Electrician) © Call After 3:30 P.M. © PHONE 482-2608 © © FOR FREE ESTIMATES © NEW WORK 8 gjfe/ CONTRACTOR g *7onnA, *l*t. -mvtw MYRTLE M.

The admission prices to the Ebony fall fashion review also includes a one year subscribtion to the highly informative Ebony magazine, or paid subscription to the entertaining Jet magazine, for six months. Door prizes will also be awarded. That’s fashions, door prices, and subscriptions, all in one package during the Ebony Fashion Fair at ECSU. The 24th Annual Ebony Fashion Fair began its fall tour of 77 American cities on September 9, and Elizabeth . City is most fortunate in having the show return. Directed by Mrs. Eunice W. Johnson, wife of Johnson Publishing Co. President John H. Johnson, the traveling troupe of 14 glamorous models will unveil close to 200 fall fashion designs. Mrs. Johnson has selected the vast collection of designs during her earlier visits to New York, Paris and Milan. Naturally, she has also made selections from the creations of Black American designers. The Ebony Fashion Fair extravaganza will show “lavish but versatile styles with a mixture of rich fabrics and designs that give a look that is ‘dramatic by day and dazzling after sundown.” During the show at ECSU, “there will be fashions for those who prefer shorter to longer lengths or slender to fuller cuts. With the attitude that ‘more is better,’ designers are piling on layers of clothing, such as ensembles, complete with skirts, pants, jackets and huge shawls.” This year’s Ebony Fashion Fair theme, “The Look of Elegance,” is synonomous with the outpouring of lavish, opulent designs with more richness in fabric, mixture of textures and styling for a look that’s dramatic by day and dazzling at night. Observes Mrs. Johnson, “A return to glamour, beauty and style is apparent in the eighties and fashion trends for evening reflect that elegant feeling with entrance making gowns in velvet, satin and lame’ embroidered with semi precious stones, pajamas and knickers for evening in metallic leather and irridescent lame’.” "Th« brighter you are, the more you have to learn."

(COA Photo) Mental Health Directors Are Praised RALEIGH - Dr. Sarah Morrow has sent the following letter to Area Mental Health Directors and the Division of Youth Services in an attempt to speed the process by which the aggressive, emotionally disturbed adolescent is certified as eligible for - under the “Willie M” category. “I wanted to thank you for the excellent job that you and your colleagues did in helping us to design a system to serve the Willie M. children of our state. Because of your help, we now have a plan which has been described by national groups as unparallelled in the country. I want to know that Governor Hunt and I are deeply committed to serving the Willie M children of our state but we need more of your help if we are to do that. Our plan calls for the provision of services as counties become ready to serve the children within them. But before we can do that, we must complete the Ifffiuation of the Willie MfV; Mminees.

We are counting on you to help us in this first step - which will lead ultimately to certification and services for these children. We are behind schedule in our evaluation of the potential class members. We will continue to provide assistance in this area but we need your continued help on this as well. As residents of your - service areas, the children nominated for this category are closer to you and their families are more likely to work with you. I am asking that you do everything you can to help us in this process so that we can all move forward, establish the programs and serve the children. Please do not hesitate to call the Division of Mental Health, Mental Retardation and - Substance Abuse Services if any unforseen problems in obtaining these consents or evaluations arise.” Willie M is a category established through a class action suit. As a result the Hunt administration is now in the process of establishing a statewide system of community programs which can - provide a full set of services to these children as their mental health needs change. Letter To The Editoi* I would like to personally thank you for the interest and support you conveyed toward College of The Albemarle’s Cooperative Education Program this past year. Even though I resigned as Director of Cooperative Education effective September 30, I hope you will continue to support this outstanding program during the 1981-82 school year. Without your dedication and interest, Cooperative Education would not have been the success it was. Again, thank you. Sincerely, Lu Ann S. Chappell Director of Cooperative Education Scholarship Is Estabished GREENVILLE A scholarship in criminal justice studies established by the N. C.

In each academic year, the scholarship is to be used to provide one scholarship, or two if it is desirable to split it in half, to full-time students who are residents of North Carolina based on financial need and academic achievement. First preference will be given to children of N. C. lawmen slain in the line of duty. Second preference will be to children of any sheriff or deputy who is deceased, retired or currently active in North Carolina law enforcement. Third preference will be to any criminal justice student who is a North Carolina resident, based on financial need and academic achievement. The executive committee of the N. C.
