Thursday, May 27. 1982 ■ James Ogle Carolina Symphony Chidren’s Programs James Ogle, associate director of the North Carolina Symphony, will be in Edenton on June 1 to discuss benefits of the symphony’s children’s programs. Many local citizens will remember him as the talented conductor of the January evening with the Symphony in Edenton; local school children will never forget the spirited program he led the Sym Carolina Review - ERA Discussed LIKELY.. .It seems likely now that ERA will be a major topic during the upcoming “short” session of the North Carolina General Assembly-in fact, it seems almost as likely that the issue will reach a vote for ratification by the whole Assembly. Last week, the on-again, off-again progress of the long-debated amendment advanced a little more. The Legislative Research Commission voted to put the amendment on the agenda for the June session. Although the Commission action doesn’t automatically put ERA up for a ratification vote.'it does lettd uteight'do the-possibility.™' Under current legislated rules for the June session, the agenda will be limited to budgetary issues including revenue and spending and bills already passed by one house or the other. Recommended action from legislative study com mittees can also be con sidered. Even with the Research Commission vote, the only way for ERA to be con sidered is for both the House and the Senate to vote by 1982 • 1983 Budget Town Os Edenton, N.C.

This year the local Edenton Symphony Chapter is committed to bringing not one but two children’s concerts to Edenton, thereby giving an additional 1,000 Chowan County students the opportunity of hearing live symphony music. Leaders of local civic organizations have been invited to an evening of two-thirds majority to suspend the current agenda rules. Deals are being cut now, no doubt, to achieve that two-thirds vote for suspension of the rules. Almost certainly, however, some of those deals will be made with legislators who have no intention of voting for the measure, but are merely trying to relieve some of the heat from pro- ERA lobbyists. Essentially, the deal is that the ERA lobbyist won’t come down too hard later on the offensive “no” vote on ratification, if be (the “no” voter) at least helps to get the amendment to the floor. Os course, those against ratification might be a little more hesitant to help bring it to the floor than in the past. The reason being that previous ERA votes have been sometimes very close and a recent Lou Harris poll suggesting that a large majority of North Carolinians support ERA could sway a few “no” voters - permitting passage. No matter how it turns out, the supporters of the amendment will have to move swiftly. Current “Tea & Symphony” with Ogle on June 1 at 7:30 to have dessert and share the excitement of hearing first - hand plans made for making the children’s concerts better than ever. Anyone interested in meeting Ogle and hearing his presentation on the Symphony’s educational concerts can contact Terry Wackelin at 482 - 2792. You had better hurry, though. Seating is limited. thinking is that the session won’t last more than 14 days, if that long. And those days will be full of money matters that simply must be addressed--regardless One interesting side-note is that the North Carolina Association of Educators might have set themselves up for at least a slight fall. The Asssociation is a lob bying group for North Carolina teachers-basically to get teachers more money and fringe benefits. Lately the group has been very involved with lobbying for ERA passage. But in this June session, if the lawmakers get too involved in -the haggle over ERA, they may not have the time to look for means of getting enough money to maintain the five per cent pay raise of last year and the teacher “step” increases now in effect. The legislators aren’t going to hang around long and they aren’t going to step forward in any big con troversy. The primary election is on June 29 and while they (the lawmakers’) are in Raleigh arguing, their opponents will be home campaigning.
