I am committed to representing every member-consumer of the LREMC. JAMES HARDIN LUMBEE RIVER ELECTRIC MEMBERSHIP COOP BOARD TRUE OR FALSE? Question: Some people seem to think no matter how high the price, people will always drink and the liquor industry will always be very profitable. Is this true or false? Answer: Experts say that the above statement is false. Per adult consumption of liquor in the United States is less today than it has been at any time since 1970. Liquor sales were down roughly three percent in 1982, probably due to the recession. If there were to be a major increase in taxes on liquor, for instance, it would cause a major price increase which would only accelerate the decline in sales. A 100 percent boost in the federal tax on liquor, for instance, would cause retail prices to go up as much as 50 percent. Liquor sales could drop at least 25 percent, according to con servative estimates. Unfortunately, the decline would not come from problem drinkers, says the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States, Inc. (DISCUS), the trade associa tion of the distilled spirits industry. It would come from reduced consumption by light and moderate drinkers?over 100 million consumers. The industry would suffer a sever blow but we would likely see no change in alcohol abuse problems. JEANNE SWANNEI BO BESTSON^.WIm she waa "MIh North C iiBiii" la 1963. From Graham, aha wB be the speaker at NahwU State's fond-raiting dinner at 6 p.m. Tbanday, No*. 3. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ? ? ? ? ?? ? ^ ?

THE BIG DAY NEARS: 'MISS N.C.* SPEAKS AT PEMBROKE STATE Jeanne Swanner Robert son. the 6-foot-2 former "Miss North Carolina" who calls herself a "tall lady with a tall sense of humor." will be visiting Pembroke State Uni versity next Thursday to speak at PSU's fourth Annual Giving Campaign kickoff din ner in the Jones Physical Education Center. She realizes as the speaker she is following in the foot steps of enthusiastic Jim Val vano. N.C. State's high-flying basketball coach who is still in orbit after last March's na tional NCAA championship. "Jim and I are good friends." she smiled, is ready for the challenge. Valvano was great as PSU's speaker last year. A native of Graham, Jeanne was recently given' a full page spread in her hometown newspaper, the Burlington Daily Times-News, reflecting back on 1963 when she won "Miss North Carolina" and six busloads of Alamance County residents accompani ed her to Atlantic City. Now 40 years old. married to Jerry Robertson, and the mother of a senior in high school. Jeanne "is more beautiful than ever, with a softness and a maturity that have develoned in the two j decades since she was 'Miss North Carolina'." said the Burlington newspaper. The newspaper continued: "There are a few gray strands in the honey-blond hair, some of the southern drawl has vanished or been refined, but the twinkle in her eye is just as bright as ever and the wit is just as sharp...She still strums the ukelele and sings as she travels around the country making speeches...As one of the nation's top female humorists, she still tells jokes -down-home. country style jokes--and pokes fun at her self and others and wins admiration from audiences everywhere she goes." This lady is a professional speaker, averaging 150 spee-|P ches a year--to such organ-\ izations as Key Club Interna- j tional. IBM. Mary Kay Cos- j metics. Kansas Livestock As- ? sociation, Hilton Hotels Cor poration. Oklahoma Lumber men's Association, etc. Mary Kay Cosmetics is one of her best clients and usually 4 sends a Lear Jet to take her from one location to another. "I owe it alt to my year as 'Miss North Carolina," Jeanne says. "That year was equal to being in Toast- | masters for 10 years-better, ^ because it made me a pro fessional and gave me a career. I learned I could say * funny things and people , would listen and laugh. But 1 2 have a point to make, too a point that will relate to each individual audience." In order to participate in the "Miss America" pageant in 1963, Jeanne was forced to decline an invitation to make her bow into society at the N.C. Debutante Ball because I they took place on the same weekend-a decision she has never regretted. She will now use this ability as a speaker to help ' raise funds for Pembroke ' State University.
