(AP) - Ellen Palmer says there's not a soul alive who wouldn't benefit from a few pointers on how to flirt, and for $75 she's willing to pass on what she knows. Ms. Palmer conducts "Learn to Flirt^ seminars designed by two psychologists who concluded in a study that flirting is a lost art. "We're not a swinging singles type of club," the Nashville woman said. "Learning to flirt simply makes you more comfortable with others and also gives you more self-confidence."

Jesse Jackson told a Portland audience Sunday night that economic injustice bothers him more than the recent incidents of racial violence in the United States. He called on those who are economically deprived unfairly, regardless of color, to band together to work toward change. "Harlem and Howard Beach are the flip side of the same devalued coin," he said. "The people who are trapped must march together." . "We must define our times," Jackson said in the keynote speech to the 70th annual meeting of the Ecumenical Ministries of Oreaon Leaks plague houses buil PHILADELPHIA (AP) ? New houses built to replace those destroyed in the 1985 MOVE confrontation sprang leaks during the recent snowstorms. "It just never ends," said Betty Mapp, whose husband discovered a stream of water flowing down their wall last Wednesday. ? ? "You wait so long to get in here, and then to have this aggravation," said Virginia Cox, a nearby resident whose basement utility room was flooded by a burst pipe. The homes were built to replace those razed by a fire that followed the May 1985 police bombing of a house occupied by the radical group MOVE.

Scratching one's head is on the list of nonos. Flirting, Ms. Palmer says, is a matter of drawing positive attention. "What makes a person flirtatious is not how you look, it's how you act," she says. Most people want-to get along with others but don't, Ms. Palmer says. "Most people want to be warm and friendly with each other, but they're afraid to be," she says. "Women are afraid they'll seem like they're 'too easy' -- and men might be afraid of appearing 'too agressive.' " ( ^ * - _ _ . _ . . ^ / / Town loses mov By LAURINDA KEYS Associated Press Writer JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - Residents of Krugersdorp went to the movies in the Transvaal mining town for what appeared to be the last time Saturday because the town council has refused to open its cinemas to all races. Ster-Kinekor Co., which manages the Krugersdorp theaters as well as most of the country's other cinemas, set a Jan. 31 deadline for the council to desegregate the houses. The council twice considered the issue and voted to keep them segregated. Last Monday the council deadlocked 6-6 and referred the issue to a central government official. He said he would review the decision but had made no ruling by Saturday. Ster-Kinekor chairman Ian Heron said Friday that Krugersdorp had run out of time. The cinemas would be closed Monday, he said, to protect the rest of the company's 183 cinemas and drive-ins from a boycott by American film producers and distributors. South African movie houses are closed on Sunday*. | After Heron's statement, KrugersdorjKjjlayor Christo Peyper called a special council session, but there was no indication from Ster-Kinekor that the deadline would be extended. Heron said Ster-Kinekor has been applying for two years to open its facilities to all races. Local councils make such decisions, then ask the provincial administrator, a central government official, for final approval. Ster-Kinekor's campaign succeeded in Cape and Natal provinces and the Orange Free State, where all movie houses were multiracial by the end of 1986.

By law and custom, apartheid establishes a racially segregated society in which the 24 million blacks have no vote in national affairs.

Newspaper surveys have shown the whiteresidents of Krugersdorp evenly divided on the issue of multiracial cinemas. The councils of Vereeniging, Roodeport and Potcnefstroom voted quietly last Thursday night to desegregate their cinemas and drive-ins. In Pretoria, South Africa's administrative capital, Mayor Steyn Van der Spuy refused to allow the open cinema issue to be discussed at last Monday's council meeting, saying the motion was 1 technically deficient. Pretoria is under no deadline from Ster-Kinekor, which has four cinemas in the city. J5ut Heron said Friday that he expected a decision by the end of February.
