Unofficial reports have it
that Cleo Wallace will be
replaced as head coach of the
Winston-Salem State Rams
football team before next
I season.
Sources say that the school
is now looking for a
replacement for Wallace who
has been the Rams head coach
since 1971.
It is hoped according to
* these sources that the new
coach will assume his duties
by Jan. 15, 1976.
Wallace's 1975 team finished
the season with a 1-9 record
winning their final game (the
Rams Homecoming) over
Shaw University. The lone win
allowed the Rams to share the

Wallace had predicted a

although the majority of his
players were freshmen and

inexperience, however, kept
that prediction from materializing.
Many have criticized Wallace
for what they call his lack
of imagination on offense.
Some claim that the Rams
offense contained less than
ten plays this season.

Program
by James Smith ?.=
Staff Writer
With the number of drug
arrests in Winston-Salem and
Forsyth County on the
increase, a Court Services
program (a component of the
Council on Drug Abuse) has
been initiated.
Their primary function is to
intervene on behalf of persons
who are involved-with the
criminal justice system.
In an interview, counselors
LaVaughn Booker and Reggie
Watren stressed the fact that
they were not members of the
law enforcement agency.
"What we try to do is assess
our client's needs and develop
f
'riblen
out of work to receive
unemployment compensation
insurance.
"Instead of a person
receiving money for the usual
13 to 26 weeks, the Federal
Government has made three
- new extensions which would
permit a person to receive
unemployment compensation
for a maximum of 65 weeks.
"According to the new
^extension program, after a
person has been out of work
for at least one year, the
person is then re-interviewed
to make sure he or she is
eligible to receive additional
help," he said.
However, Teeter does feel
that a lot of young persons are
taking advantage of the
extension program. "If a
person is out of work and
knows that he can stay home
and receive as much or more
money than he did while
working, he will do so.
The extension program was
primarily set up for those
persons who are unable to find
jobs because of their age. He
feels that all too often when a
prospective employer is lookSee

a plan of rehabilitation prior to
making referrals to appropriate
agencies.
"We try to work with the
judges, probation officers, the
' District Attorney and others in
order to provide treatment
services as an alternative to
incarceration for those clients
for whom it is deemed
advisable, or for those clients
who would have a more
productive experience while
on probation if also enrolled in
some treatment program in
the county," they said.
Both readily agreed that
with the increase in the
number of drug arrests they
hope the court services
program could be extended to
a contingency contract.
"Many of the persons who
came to us usually require just
the Day Treatment Program,"
they commented.
In explaining the day
treatment program, they said

So far, they both agreed
"that most of theirclients range ^

They also feel that a lot of
young people are using drugs
in order to be with the "in

In trying to decide what
makes a person turn to drugs,
neither could quite decide if it
was one particular thing. "In
our jobs, we've seen persons
from all kinds of backgrounds,"
each said.
