Concerned Parents
Adopt Resolution
? - ? - ' < ? 1
The North Robeson Con
cerned Parents Organization
adopted the following resoluv
tion on Now. 12th:
Edncatlnnal Opportunities
For Al.
WHEREAS*several areas
* located considerably beyond
the boundaries of the City of
Lumberton were annesed to
the Lumberton City School
District during the late sixitjes
and very early seventies at a
time when federal civil rights
officials were vigorously pres
sing for the desegregation of
the local public schools; and
WHEREAS* under the fed
eral desegregation mandates
the overwhelmingly white res
idents of these areas would
have been required to send
their children to the majority
Indian county schools, includ
ing Magnolia and Piney Grove
had such annexation not
occurred; and
WHEREAS* the boundar
ies of these annexed areas are
so meandering and convolut
ed as to defy rational, nondis
criminatory explanation such
that any reasonable, objective
person is compelled to the
conclusion that racial motiva
tions and considerations guid
ed the hand of the architect of
these nefarious lines; and
WMfcKfcAS* at the same
time that these lines were
being drawn several adjacent
Indian areas denied similar
inclusion into the Lumberton
school district while other
Indian areas in Western and
Southern Robeson were not
granted similar legislative re
lief annexing their communi
ties to the county school
district so that their children
could continue to attend their
traditional schools; and
WHEREAS* these annexa
tions have been implemented
in flagrant violation of the
Voting Rights Act of 1965 in
spite of a formal objection on
June 2, 1975 by the Attorney
General of the United States;
and
"WHEREAS* such exten
sion of the boundaries of the
city school districts beyond
the limits of the cities or
towns themselves deprives
the outlying areas of the
necessary population base to
support comprehensive, con
solidated high schools; and
WHEREAS* the persons
moat affected by the* discri
minatory practice* with the
help of Lumbee River Legal
Services have filed suit ia the
federal courts to enforce the
guarantees at equal treatment
for all contained within the
fourteenth and fifteenth am
endments to the Constitution
of the United States; and
WtikREAS* the position of
the plaintiffs in that action has
been upheld by no less than
the Supreme Court of these
United States of America; and
WHEREAS* it would ap
pear that various individuals
and groups are now seeking to
subvert the administration of
justice and prevent the ap
propriate resolution of these
issues in the federal courts
through the use of unfair
political pressures and non
public meetings and confer- ,
ences; and
WHEREAS* the politicians
aiding such groups have de
monstrated disrespect for the
traditions American notion of
equal justice under law, and
appear to be afraid to argue
their case in the federal courts
before impartial judges, pre
ferring instead unannounced
meetings aimed at political
"oersuasion";
NOW THEREFORE* BE FT
AND IT IS HEREBY RESOL
VED BY THE NORTH ROBE I
SON CONCERNED PARS
ENTS AS FOLLOWS:
A. That the unsavory
tactics of the backroom politi
tions be abandoned in favor of
a public trail of the issues
raised by this controversy;
B. That equal educational
opportunities be afforded the
residents of the Robeson
County School District by
restricting the boundaries of
cityschool administrative
units to the limits of the city or
town encompassed by such
city school district;
C. That copies of this
resolution be forwarded to
Senator Jesse Helms, Senator
John East, Congressman
Charles Rose, State Senator
Sam R. Noble, State Repre
sentative William Gay and the
United States Department of
Justice.

I WHO IS AN
ALCOHOLIC?
It is i common saying
among alcoholics that "The
alcoholic- is always the last
person to know that he has a
problem with drinking. His
wife, his family, and some
times even the police know it
long before he will admit that
drinking is causing him trou
ble."
There are many miscon
ceptions about the nature of
alcoholism in our minds and
these keep the person with a
drinking problem from seeing
or recognizing or admitting
that he has difficulty: Some of
the more common miscon
ceptions are: 1. I am not a
Skidrow Bum; 2. I never drink
before 5 o'clock; 3. I never
drink anything but beer; 4. 1
drink only on the weekends;
5.1 am too young; 6.1 can quit
anything.
You may say I can't be an
? miU.si dH
alcoholic because I am not a
?"Skid low Bum." The idea
that the only person who
could possibly be an alcoholic
is the "Falling-Down Drunk"
on Skid Bow la unfortunately a
misconception. Most people
do not know that the so-called
"SMd-Buw-Bum" represents
only three percent of Ameri
ca's 10 million alcoholics; the
other 97% (ninety-seven per
cent) are "ordinary" people.
Most of them have good jobs,
are maintaining their fami
lies, and are getting along.
Although, having a difficult
time of it because of drinking.
I personally know priest,
ministers, lawyers, doctors,
teachers, salesmen, busi
nessmen, carpenters, and
housewives, who are alco
holics. But none of them was
on "Skid Row."
