Editorial and Opinion Page Let us give honor to whom honor is due READER LET US GIVE HON'OR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE To The Editor The FayeitCYillc Observer-Times (6/7/%) Mark Slmncford reminds us that the Slate Senate Leaders expect to use an old 'Legislative TRICK to try to clear an impasse over the renaming of Pembroke Slate Univcrsiiv I am reminded of Halloween's TRICK OR I REAT ' The name change did not requiresiatc money Then, why arc the Senators planning to Purchase Recognition for Sen Dav id Parncll" How SHAMEFUL is the idea of Senate Leaders to agree with Sen David Parncll to use an old LcgislalivcTRICK' toinscrt a budget provision in a Stale Budget! For many years. MONFY is known lobe used as the "ROOT or AL.L EVIL. " Sen Dav id Parncll knows A Lying Tongue is an Abomination to the HOLY WORD Therefore, he SHOUL D NOT HAVE promised his friend Chancelloi Joseph Oxendine that . lie will not jeopardize the PSU name change bill " Sen Parncll is " 'willfully delaying the name change for PSU io become law QUESTION: Why did Senatoi David Parncll introduce a Com panion Bill with the wordsofSlalc Representative Frances M Cummings House Rill 1072?Sen.David Parncll did accompany Chancel lor Joseph Oxendine of PSU: Rep Ronnie Sutton, together with our Senator-Fleet Dav id Wcinsleinand witnessed the Seed-planting" of State Rep Frances M.

AS WISDOM EXPRESSED THOUGHTS AND LABOR ". The Senate Leaders, as Sen. Tony Rand and others who made speeches about the name change for PSU. declared "Tradition dictates that their Senate Bill 1118 should pass, as it has been a matter of Legislative Courtesy " Thev further stated that'" whatever House passes a bill first, that Bill is the one to be considered" MY ANSWER TO THE SENATORS Legislative Courtesy COULD NOT HAVE applied to the Senate's Bill 111X. ev en though it passed the Senate's approval on May 16. * 1*>%. due to the fact "it's foundation was on sinking sand Also, it (SB 111 X)\vasa Companion Bill to Rep.
