Kiwanis Continued From Page 2-A lina an organization to provide guidance in the best way to handle violence problems. The Center for the Prevention of School Violence, as it is known, is located in Raleigh, and draws - on the experience of other states hs well. The training of School Resources Officers focuses on three areas: law enforcement officer, law-related counselor, .-..and law-related education *' teacher. The center reports that 98% of the officers responding to their questionnaire maintain am “open door” policy, enabling students to interact freely with them, including coming to them when the student needs advice. The most often cited number of “law-related counseling ses sions” per week was five. Brabble said that, while he found the center's guidance '-helpful, he,also found diver - - gences that must be recognized ’ in his own situation. Whereas the statistics show 30 percent of time spent on counseling, "I use 75-80% of my time on counsel ing. One of the biggest things I enjoy about my job is that it is such a personal association with children. Students are re ally coming to me and opening up now.” When necessary, Brabble will recommend a child’s problems to an outside agency. “A lot kids don’t know what it is like to have both a mom and dad at home, and some have neither. What they really need is love.” Brabble added that he puts a note in teachers’ mailboxes that reads: “I’m a resource. Use me in providing a perspective on law.” He went on to say that “a lot of kids caill me Mr. T. I try to act as a positive role model, amd when they see me on the street, that makes a difference. Some times, though. I have to get firm and let them know that it’s not all playtime:” There aire still a lot of chil dren that get suspended, and it is Brabble’s duty to escort them home, where he may be met with a hostile reception. “Some parents get pretty irate, ” he said. “If I could change amything, it would be to make parents do their part. Teachers can’t do it. Parents must.” Farm City Banquet set This year’s Farm City Ban quet. hosted by the Extension Advisory Council, will be held Tuesday evening.

Local potters a part of event Three Edenton potters will join more than 50 professional and amateur potters at the 16th annual Open House at the Finch Nursery and Pottery in Bailey, NC on Nov. 14. Rhonda Bates and Wes Lassiter, who operate The Red Drum Pottery at the site of the former Edenton Cotton Mill, and Dabney Narvaez, will share their skills and their enthusiasm for potting with the general public at the event. “This is the largest gather ing of potters in eastern North Carolina,” said Dan Finch, a master potter and president of the North Carolina Pottery Center, an organization of over 1,000 potters in the state. “The main purpose of the open house is to give the pot ters here a chance to demon strate their skills and to make their wares available to the public.. We’re also here to in form and educate the public.” He said that while there would be pottery on sale, he did not want the public to feel 1 any pressure to buy. “We want everyone coming here to have an enjoyable experience...to leave feeling better because they were here...to feel fulfilled.” Finch, who was recently re appointed to the State Board of Agriculture by Gov. Jim Hunt, said that last year about 5,000 people visited the farm for the one-day event. Ten of his. friends and farmworkers were kept busy helping people with parking and with giving direc tions to the variops exhibits. In order to ensure that the entire family has a good time, Finch is offering a wide range of events at his 230-acre farm. Not only will there be demon strations of pottery-making and the firing of a 600-cubic foot woodburning Anagama kiln, but also a petting zoo, with dozens of animals. There will also be demonstrations of sil ver jewelry-making and the making of hand-hewn wooden bowls and stained glass orna ments. To liven up the event, there will be a bluegrass country music band, as well as exhibits of birdhouse construction, blueberry cultivation and the . growing of Paulonia trees, a fast-growing Chinese hard wood. The potters who have been utilizing the spacious Finch studio each Thursday include college professors, a child psy chologist, retired business ex ecutives, housewives and oth ers who enjoy working ere atively with their hands. Carla Edwards, a state park ranger at Medoc Mountain, came to an open house several years ago and watched a dem onstration of pottery-making on a wheel. “I was invited to sit down and try it,” she said. “It was the first time I had ever worked at a wheel. I liked it and have been coming here ever since. I’m doing plates, bowls, vases and pitchers and I’m getting better every time.” Juan Jimenez, a retired. JC Penney executive, said that he had been coming to the studio for two years. “I like it here,” he said. “It’s a homey place, with a relaxed atmosphere. There’s no pres sure. You can do your own thing, with a very nice group of people.” Finch, who has been a potter for 27 years, said that other artists invited to be part of the Nov. 14 event include Dora Turner, head of the Two-by Two Petting Zoo, who is ex pected to bring about 20 ani mals, includinga reindeer, and pot-bellied pigs. Also invited are Ed Biggs, who will make handhewn wooden bowls, Brian and Erin Formo, who create designs in stained glass, and Dan Dye, a silversmith. The Open House will run from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the nursery and pottery complex on Route 581 in Bailey, NC. There is no admission charge. For more information, call (252) 235-4664.
