"Mayft? ^ ^^^'^ason^b^^s ^can^m^e irout here^Mmi^^^t^on~~ a given day you may see 35 whites in here and only 2 or 3 blacks.". Still, business is going reasonably well, he says. Summer is a slack time in the restaurant business, so Staley's Northside hasjclosed on Sundays, but come September, they will be open on Sundays with some new features to offer. "We are going to have a buffeteria to go with our salad bar," he said, indicating a portable 'contraption' designed to keep foodhot^fbr a "serve yourself" buffet. "There would be no point in using it now," he said. ^People aren't that interested in hot food in the summer time." His best selling item right now is the rib eye steak sandwich. In colder weather, the favorite is country-style steak. Things have gotten better since last winter's crisis, says Wiseman. He was behind in the rent, he explained, because the founder of Staleys died, i leaving'him the restaurant, but also leaving him a large inheritance tax to pay off. So he worked on getting that paid, and let the rent go-for a few 1 months. Now the taxes are paid, and the rent on the 1 building gets paid on time, so things are going pretty i well for Mr. Wiseman. But he still wishes a few more ] blacks would come out to Northside for dinner. 1 Burke Seeks Office J I Continued From Page 1 Her recognition9 for and concerns of?the service?awards?include:? citizens.
