Hospital) should disrupt the | atmosphere of the j neighborhood and par- \ ticularly disturb its elderly residents. "No one is denying the ' plight of the ill child," * Wilson said, "but no one?1 can deny the plight of the c elderly. We owe them something." 1 Aldermen Lynne Harpe, Virginia Newell, Larry Black S the National Association < for the- Advancement?of? Colored People/ does not agree. . j "There is no unity among i black people in Winston- 1 Salem, not the way it ought to be," said Hairston,* < "Black people are going to i have to realize that what af- < fectsj^ne of us affects all of _J us. I he only thing that we 1 really support is the black church. Yet, blacks exploit 1 other blacks more than < anybody else. That has got to stop." ' Newly elected Alderman 1 of the Southeast Ward, t Larry Womble is much more optimistic on both the t political- and economic i fronts. 1 "In the past, the black t community usually comes t together in times of crises.

Highland Homes resident Vlary S. Jones accused the )oard of turning a deaf ear n the concerns of the city's? dderly. "Our elder^ folks are upset," she told the aldermen. Jones said that Alderman elf-Help: t :hanging that attitude." Roland Douthit. a 33-year-old social worker, said that a small amount of unity exists, but^the community needs a lot more. -'There is a certain amount 3f unrty in the black community as a whole, but I Jon't think that it's enough to make a viable difference [o society.11 Making the viable differnece is what Douglas O-.. .! _ I it ? - <" cuviiigiun, cnanceuor or Winston-Salem State University, cites as a major <ey to the black communiy's survival.

"There are so many opportunities in WiftstonSalem and it is unfortunate that we aren't able to j achieve the kind of uniformity of purpose that would enable us to articulate our own goals instead of having them articulated for us." Larry Leon Hamlin, founder and director of the Nt>rth Carolina Blttc,k Repertory Company, said that he was hopeful of seeing black unity develop .in Winston.
