GREENSBORO - The number of minority medical
students has dropped 9.1 percent since the Bakke case
was handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court,
according to U.S. Attorney H.M. "Mickey" Michaux.
The Middle District prosecutor referred to the recent
statistics compiled by the national association of
medical colleges during a speech to a careers
conference at A&T State University here.
Michaux, the first black U.S. attorney in the
Southeast, told the 200 businessmen attending the
meeting .that they have a stake in supporting
affirmative action.
- "It costs more to incarcerate than to educate," he
said. "It costs $52,000 to keep a person in prison for
four years and only $20,000 to send a student to college
for four years."

Washington, D.C. -- The Consumer Product Safety
: Commission (CPSC) has completed a six-month pilot
program designed to teach fire safety to five groups of
consumers: general low-income populations, American
Indians, Black Americans, Appalachian residents, and
Spanish-speaking groups.
According to a 1974 CPSC staff report, "Consumer
Safety Towards an Equal Opportunity", low-income
minority groups encounter safety problems different
from those of other citizens. Because they most often
buy inferior or second-hand merchandise, these
: consumers are exposed to greater risks of injury from
: defective products.
The objectives of the project were to disseminate fire
safety information; promote awareness of flammability
hazards and to investigate strategies that would be
effective in disseminating CPSC Information in
: low-income and minority communities. The program
was administered in the following urban and rural
communities: inner-city, low-income Black areas in
Baltimore; general low-income and Spanish -speaking
: communities - in Detroit; rural Appalachian sites in
: Leslie County, Ky; and American-Indian Communities
] in New Mexico.
One noteworthy aspect of the project was the use of
local community based organizations to help teach fire
?safety and disseminate information to residents of theselected
areas.
Based on activities and experiences of fire safety
oroiect. the-Comm???ir?n ic nAu/
, i.wtt jyivpm mg n manual ui
* strategies which it hopies will be useful in administering
: fire safety programs directed toward minorities in
: disadvantaged communities. The manual is expected
: to be completed the end of October.
Washington - The Law Enforcement Assistance
Administration has awarded $512,719 to the Southern
' Territory of the Salvation Army to continue its
: delinquency prevention program. The Youth and
Family Support Project of Winston-Salem is one of the
five probrams supported by the award. It provides a

problems of delinquency.
The Project evaluation is being conducted by the
National Council on Crime and Delinquency with the
cooperation of the City of Winston-Salem's Human
Services Department through C.E.T.A. funding.
Additional information about the program is available
from the Project Office at 788-8950.

ANN ARBOR Mich. - A doctoral researcher at the
University of Michigan reports that the rate of blacks
committing suicide has increased 187 percent since the
mid-1950s in the Detroit area.
"Similar rises have occurred throughout the country,"
said Beverly Howze, a Ph.d candidate in clinical
psychology who conducted a study of 341 Detroit area
teenagers.
"The greatest increases have been amont young
people, age 15 to 34," she added. "While this ihcludes
both sexes and all races, the figures are far higher for
black youth."
"This represents a complete reversal for the black
race which has a history of rarely resorting to suicide,"
she said.
In the study, she found "an alarming pattern of
alienation and self-destructiveness." She said 16
percent of low-income black youth in the sample saw
suicide as a "primary means of coping with problems."
The trustees of North Carolina School of the Arts and
the board members of the NCSA Foundation Inc. have
announced their agreement to accept the Carolina
Theatre building, offered as the gift of the Piedmont
Publishing company to the Foundation, with the
challenge of its restoration and renovation at an
estimated cost of between S4.75 million-and $6.25
million, to be raised primarily from federal and
out-of-state private sources.
The announcement was made at a breakfast news
conference at the Hyatt House, where state and local
public officials, business and education leaders, NCSA
trustees and Foundation board members and planning
teams met with news media representatives to
announce future plans for the Carolina Theatre.
Renovation of the Carolina Theatre as a performance
center for NCSA was firs seriously considered in-1.974.
Since March of 1977, when Piedmont Publishing
Company officially offered the Carolina Theatre as a
_ t JL. A A -
gin 10 in^5A, various federally funded studies have
ascertained that the existing building, which was built
in 1929:
. Is structurally sound, and lends itself to the
renovations and design modifications being proposed.
