Parent Questions Prospect
Principal’s Treatment of Child
Dear Sir:
I am a parent of children
enrolled at Prospect School. In
the past I have been an
advocate for the administra
tion and faculty. I hve been a
faithful supporter and patron.
1 suppose that is why 1 feel I
must express my deep hurt at
the way I feel my daughter was
mistreated recently.
As you know, not long ago
Prospect School students were
^^g^gcd in a fund-raising
project in the elementary
school. The boy and girl who
raised the most money were to
become king and queen of
Prospect School. My daughter,
a fourth grade student, be
came very excited over the
prospect of becoming queen.
As a result of her enthusiasm
and eagerness she began a
diligent campaign to win the
title of queen. She worked very
hard raising money. Her fa
ther and 1 were encouraged by
her enthusiasm'and we also
worked on the project with
her. The famUy effort resulted
in my daughter collecting over
$700.00. She was of course
elated, and we were very
proud because in doing so she
had won the coveted title of
Prospect Queen.
no time since has she been
recognized or given any type
of publicity. 1 do not object for
myself, but my daughter has
become very disheartened
over the matter. This was
especially evident on Sunday
when she saw the pictures of
Prospect’s Homecoming
Queen on the pages of The
Robesonian. The homecoming
activities were held on Tues
day night. As you can see, no
time was lost in giving publi
city to this queen.

1 am very upset because of
the psychological effect it
could have on my daughter.
She was so eager to work for
her school and so proud when
she obtained her goal. I am
afraid that she will become
discouraged and choose not to
participate in any other activi
ties. She is at such a crucial
age. I feel that she worked
hard for and contributed great
ly to Prospect School. And it is
my belief that it is a basic duty
of the administration to en-
courage those students who
endeavor to improve their
school.
Thanks to
Parents
The reason for my disillu
sionment is this: She won the
title back in November and at
There is probably nothing I
can do to allieviate the situa
tion. I only hope that airing my
opinion publicly will cause the
staff to think and possibly save
another child from being cru
elly used and abused. My hope
is that no other child will suffer
I Brenda Fay Cummings would
like to express my appreci
ation to my mother Mrs.
Catherine Cummings and my
fahter, Mr. Relford Cummings
and my family and teachers for
encouraging me to continue
my education at John Wesley
College in Awasso, Michigan.
May God bless them as they
go through life. Remember
me. 1 left Awasso, Michigan
February 1, 1977 to go to
Mexico for a trip and will be
returning March 1, 1977. May
God bless each and everyone
one of you.

Dr. Jose D'Arrudo
Speaks ot
kiwonion meeting
the anguish of disappointment
that my daughter has. Maybe
in the future all students at
Prospect School will be given
equal treatment according to
their accomplishments.
In no way an 1 writing this
due to my daughter wanting
publicity.
Pembroke Kiwanis Club wel
comed Dr. Jose D’Arruda at
its Tuesday evening meeting
in Sim’s Restaurant. Dr. Gib
son Gray introduced Dr. D’Ar
ruda to the club members. Dr.
D’Arruda received his Master
of Science degree and his Ph.D
from the University of Dela
ware and has been a member
of the Physical Science De
partment at Pembroke State
University since 1974.
Through the use of slides and
an energy simulator, Dr. D’Ar
ruda presented a program bn
Energy Resources. Man has
been using energy since he
first appeared on earth thou
sands of years ago, but only in
the past century has his use of
energy threatened to over
whelm his environment. In the
U.S. we use more than 30
times the energy we used 100
years ago - but our popu
lation has increased only seven
-fold. We have only six per
cent of the world’s population
yet we consume about one-
third of the world’s energy.
and lower the water tempera
ture in our hot water heaters.
Beyond that we must develop
alternative energy sources.
For the forseeable future, our
energy will come from our
present sources - coal, oil, gas,
nuclear fission, and hydroel
ectric power, although the
portion provided by each will
change as nuclear fission takes
over a large share. Other
possibilities are energy
through direct conversion, en
ergy from waste materials,
solar energy.
One of our first energy
sources was wood, then coal,
followed by oU and natural
gas. Seven per cent of our
petroleum, 18 per cent of our
natural gas and 67% of the
coal we use is burned to
generate electricity. Other me
thods of generating electricity
are hydropower, nuclear fis
sion reactors, and geothermal
power. Energy consumption
by individual Americans and
by U.S. industry keeps in
creasing year by year and we
must give serious thought to
the future. The balance be
tween energy resources and
energy demands is truly a real
problem of which most people
are not even aware. One of the
first things Americans should
do is learn to conserve energy-
cut down on heating and air-
conditioning, use our cars less,
insulate our homes better,
save on the use of hot water

Ur. U’Aimda tliown with the
energy-environment simolator
One of the most promising
developments in nuclear fis
sion technology is the breeder
reactor, which actually pro
duces more nuclear fuel than it
consumes. Conventional reac
tors use uranium for fuel, but
less than one per cent of this
fuel can be used in the
controlled nuclear reaction
that produces the heat needed
to generate electricity. A bre
eder reactor, however, can
convert up to 90 per cent of the
unusable uranium to plutoni
um, a fissionable element that
can be used to fuel other
reactors. By using this other
wise wasted uranium, the
breeder offers a fuel supply
that could last for centuries.
An experimental breeder plant
is now being built in Oak
Ridge. Tennessee. It is ex
pected to be in operation by
the early 1980’s.

Dr. D’Arruda then explained
how the energy-environment
simulator works. This compu
ter-like device imitates the real
world. It is like a time
machine, on which time
speeds by at a rate of 100 years
per minute. The Qub mem
bers then made decisions by
controlling energy supplies
and demands. The object is to
maintain a supply of fossil fuel
for as long as possible and to
keep the environment as clean
as possible.
