Page 8-B Fund Raising Is Begun ■ “There are many areas throughout the state that I would appreciate having a I University like ECSU in its | community, and would give I four times the amount you are « being asked to give,” stressed | Gov. James B. Hunt, Jr., S when he addressed a banquet, in 1978, which launched Elizabeth City State Universi ty’s “Advancement 200” fund raising campaign. Now scheduled to address •ECSU’s Second Annual Cor porate Dinner on February 4, at the relatively new Graduate and Continuing Education Center, it will be interesting to note the gover nor's line of reasoning and the nature of his appeal, as he en courages the corporate com munity to fully support the University. A 5:15 P.M. social hour precedes the 6:15 P.M. dinner, which marks the governor's fourth appearance and address at ECSU. Sponsored in cooperation with ECSU’s College-Industry Cluster Program, the Cor porate Dinner seeks funds to continue the vital “Blue Chip” Scholarship Program. Funds raised will make available scholarship money to enable ECSU to attract more high achieving students. Currently 24 business and industrial firms and agenices are ac tively supporting the Cluster Program, an activity of the National Alliance of Business. Approves Trade Decision WASHINGTON-Sen. John East, R-N.C., said he ap plauds a decision by the Reagan administration to Curb textile imports from Communist China. In a letter sent Monday to Secretary of State George P. Shultz, East said the curbs, imposed last week after a breakdown in trade negotia tions, would stop the transfer of textile jobs from North Carolina to China. “Textile imports from Communist China have had an adverse impact on the economy of North Carolina and other textile producing states. The increase in such imports has had the effect of exporting jobs from our state and others to foreign coun tries,” East said. East also urged Shultz to re main hard-nosed with Peking during the Secretary’s up coming trip to China. 1 “4 ask that you keep foremost in mind the interests ram I MACHINE I I REPAIR I Blake Your Machine To B ■ JAY’S CLOTHINGB B 1111 N.

Hr Phone: 482-4904 Feeling that the responses from these business, in dustrial and government representatives will surpass last year’s level of support, Gerald D. Tyler, Ad ministrative Officer to Chancellor Marion D. Thorpe, indicated that “During the dinner, it will be important for area citizens to show segments of the corporate world how well they support us.” As the event approaches, Tyler indicated that “Tickets for non-business represen tatives, priced at just 815, are available in the Chancellor’s office, at the Elizabeth City Area Chamber of Commerce, Marina Restaurant, and at Owens Moving and Storage Company.” Individual business representatives will be paying SIOO.OO to attend, while corporate tables seating four or eight will cost S3OO or S6OO. ‘ ‘We want to also show Gov. Hunt how much we ap preciate his support of our continued growth and development,” Tyler added. To do this, ECSU plans somewhat of a “red carpet” treatment, which will include posting of the national colors by the two-year-old Army ROTC Unit, and music by the University Choir which the governor calls “the best University choral group in America.” of our own citizens whose livelihood depends on a healthy and prosperous tex tile industry. We appreciate the initial steps already taken to stop the loss of American jobs in the textile industry and urge you to stand firm in any trade discussions with the Chinese Communist regime,” he said. “In short, the new restric tions on Red Chinese textile imports reflect the type of realistic policy which we ask you to reinforce in your forth coming trip. I am confident that the textile workers of North Carolina and others in our state join me in approving the action of the administration.” Pregnancy Counseling Continued From Page 7-B work with the young woman unless, for reasons of con fidentiality, ' the woman chooses to work with a caseworker in another area.

Pet Therapy Helpful To Senior Citizens by Ernest Messer Mrs. S., confused and wan ting to go home, propelled her wheelchair around and around the nurses station, each time making disparag ing remarks about the staff and the nursing home. She became more agitated and hostile with each trip, regardless of all attempts by the nursing staff to placate her. Each effort was rebuffed. At wits end as to how to manage the situation, the staff had almost decided to restrain the patient in her room. Overhearing this fur ther enraged Mrs. S. and the problem became critical. The situation with Mrs. S. was solved when volunteers brought several puppies into the facility. Mrs. S’s face lit up and she again propelled her wheelchair across the room, but this time she was met halfway by a soft, furry and immeasurably friendly puppy. For the rest of the volunteer’s visit, Mrs. S. followed the dogs around, gently patting them, sharing her lap robe with them and discussing with the staff her experiences with her own animals. All of us at one time have experienced the wonderful gift of joy that animals bring to human beings. Barbara Berry, pet therapy consul tant/volunteer coordinator with the High Point Council on Aging, says that for years this bond between animals and humans as accepted as an unimportant part of our lives. However, scientists are now becoming increasingly aware of the benefit that animals have on the health of people.

ELIZABETH CITY, NC P.O Box 572 Hwy. 17 South Phone: 919/3354252 *6dRSS QT7 state up— Telephone (or neighbor's) I own property In County TH£ CHOWAN HERAy? has initiated a volunteer pet tberapy program for the area nursing homes that has met with great enthusiasm. Several nursing homes are currently being visited by volunteers bringing pet animals of all shapes and sizes. Visits are kept short and are conducted mainly in the recreational area and sometimes in the patients’ rooms if they are bedridden. Residents are encouraged to play with the animals, although usually no en couragement is needed. A friendly wag of a tail and a friendship begins; the pa tients tell of their own pets, many times sadly describing leaving pets behind when the move to the home became necessary. This people-pet association has been christened the Human/Companion Animal Bond. It is fast becoming a new field of research and ap plication. Psychiastrists have found that withdrawn pa tients, those who are often the hardest to reach, respond especially well. Within the complex field of gerontology, the effects of pets are most remarkable. One of the primary problems faced when dealing with the elderly is loneliness. The lack of human companionship, the sudden loss of love and chronic human loneliness are significant contributors to serious disease (including cardiovascular disease) and premature death. Feelings of worthlessness and low self-esteem are chronic symptoms of old age; often these feelings are in creased by shutting away the elderly in nursing homes. Here these feelings enter a vicious cycle. The low self esteem felt by the elderly begins to show in their withdrawal from society. Older adults relate well to animals. The pets freely give love and affection without making value judgements. Pet facilitated therapy pro grams such as one in High Point provide unlimited possibilities for growth. Some Job Auditions Are Held Continued From Page 6-B theater, during the summer season. Casts, usually non- Equity, number more than 50.

Out-of-state productions in clude: “Trumpet in the Land,” New Philadelphia, nursing homes might con sider a resident pet rather than visiting animals. Researchers and the general public are learning more about the Human/Com panion Animal Bond, through successful programs like the one in High Point. The key to pet therapy’s future success is compassion; a meaningful regard for human beings and their warm hearted friends.
