Cavanagh took jabs at Earline Par ?moiy the first hlack county Democratic Party chairman L last week during an interview after his election. The 41-year-old Cavanagh, who was defeated in 1982 for a second term in the state Senate, said Parmon, 40, would most likely be taking time from her job as head of a tutoring program to do party work. Public and private Hooks Censures Reagai NEW YORK -- NAACP Executive Director Benjamin . Hooks sharply criticized President Reagan's defense of White House counselor Edwin Meese's recent "insensitivity" to the nation's hungry and disadvantaged. "President sitive statements on hungry Americans leads us to ask where is the Reagan administration's heart," said Hooks. "Where is President Reagan's compassionate concern for the poor and disadvantaged0 We had hoped that Mr. Reagan would have demonstrated some sense of outrage over the callously indifferent statement by his White Judge: Race Can't Kno< NEW YORK ~ In a landmark ruling last week, U.S. District Court Judge Eugene Nickerson said the Constitution prohibits prosecutors from using their disc|ptionary powers to keep blacks and other minorities off criminalcase juries.^ Nickerson granted a new trial to Michael McCray, 23, from Brooklyn, who was convicted by an all-white jury in the 1978 armed robbery of a white student. By saying the prosecutor acted unconstitutionally when she kept minority jurors out of the McCray case, Nickerson became the first federal judge to invalidate the use of Fire Prevention ? Pi rm i-r Alter ine rire is By THOMAS FL YNN Syndicated Columnist If you read this column regularly, you've heard about smoke detectors, and crawling below smoke, and escape ladders, and setting an agreed meeting place outside, and call the fire department from a neighbor's phone. But what do you do immediately after fire strikes your home? As soon as the fire is over, notify your insurance company. Most larger home insurers maintain 24-hour claim centers to accept initial claim reports, and authorize money for immediate needs like a hotel room and emergency closure. If fire damages is not so severe as to endanger your home's structural integrity, fire officials may permit you to re-enter the home after the fire is out. Here are simple steps you can take to reduce loss and damage: Recover valuables such as your wallet, keys, jewelry and spare cash, if they have not been fire-damaged. Cover furniture with cloths to prevent further smoke damage. Wooden-legged furniture should be removed from standing water to reduce warping, swelling and discoloration. On the way out, recover medications such as insulin. Immediately arrange for emergency closure -- your insurance company may automatically send someone to board up doors and windows to prevent looting. If not, call one yourself -- most cities have one or more closure contractors who work 24 hours a day. 71*83 Name: Sylvia Woodeen Netty Job Tith: Administrative assistant and bookkeeper A I Hometown: Lexington I s Describe yourself In one word: t t' Hobbles: Acting, dancing, music, I drawing and decorating 1 Favorite Book: "Gone With the r Wind," by Margaret Mitchell Favorite Movie: "A Star is Bom" I Persons admire most: Diana Roes I and parents, Mr. and Mrs. John O.

But, if so, it is because there are more people who are hungry in America today than in any recent period, thanks to Mr. Reagan's 'welfare for the rich' social and economic policies." :k Jurors Off Panel "peremptory challenge" by a prosecutor. "The ruling goes a long way toward eradicating one of the last remaining vestiges of discrimination in the criminal justice system," said Steven R. Shapiro of the - New York Civil Liberties Union, who represented Me- Cray. During McCray's second trial in 1980, an assistant district attorney eliminated all seven blacks and the sole Hispanic in the jury pool from being chosen. McCray was convicted and sentenced to two to six years in prison. The sentence was stayed while his lawyers argued that the jury selection was unconstitutional. Out: What Next? If a member of your family is on medication and your supply is not recoverable, telephone your nearest hospital emergency room and describe the situation. They can confirm the prescription with your doctor and issue a refill at once, if needed. Your insurance agent will instruct you when and where to have clothing, fabrics and household articles cleaned and repaired, within a day or two of the fire. You may also need to ask your insurance agent about renting a car (if your vehicle was damaged or destroyed in the fire) and on expense limits for meals and accommodations after the fire.

Another good idea for your safe deposit box: color snapshots of every room in your house. If you don't have a photographic inventory of your home, why not get out your camera and make oneTThe photos needn't be fine art so long as they show each room clearly enough for contents to be identified. If your fire is a total loss, you'll be expected to tell yo&r insurance company every item you owned, its value and condition. A photo inventory can help you remember all your possessions and prove their existence in the event of any dispute.
