"The content will not be
drastically different," she said.
"There will be some editorial '
changes."
The format of the plan will
also be slightly different, she
said. One format change is the

RALEIGH ? A proposed new
law would cause the North
Carolina State Treasurer to stop
investing state retirement and
university trust funds with companies
that do business with
South Africa.
The bill introduced by Rep.
H.M. "Mickey" Michaux
(D-Durham), made it out of the
House of Representatives recently,
just one day ahead of the
legislative deadline that required
all bills to be passed by^at least
one house of the General
Assembly by May 28 to remain
alive this session.

Mrs. Massey urged citizens to
attend the public hearing. "I
would hope that people would
come out even if they don't have
anything to say/' she said.
If people don't come out, it
may send a negative message to
the planning board, she said. "I

she said.
Tim Jackson, chairman of the
East Winston Area Plan Review
Committee, in a Chronicle article
last week, urged citizens to attend
the meeting.
4'My belief is that if we do not
show our support we have
nobody to blame but ourselves,"
Jackson said last week. "We
can't contlrituT to blafoe other
people for our destinies. We must

want." ite

The bill is now being considered
by the Senate Committee
on Pensions and Retirement,
chaired^by Rep. Ralph Hunt
(D-Durham).
The House vote on the bill was
65-22.
The proposed new law
establishes guidelines by which a
company is evaluated by state
agencies to determine if the company
qualifies for investment.
Those guidelines include being
signatory to the Sullivan Principles,
and receiving a passing
grade when evaluated by those
principles in regard to how the
company does business in South
Africa.

An ordeal that began almost
two months ago for the Gregorys
of 3824 Forest Valley Drive, has
ended with the reappearance of
their son, Kevin.
Kevin, who has been missing
since April 11, was returned
home safely Monday.
Kevin, 17, was located in
Ridgeland, S.C.
Marjorie Gregory said that she
and her husband, Lewis, learned
of their son's whereabouts when
Kevin's landlord in South
Carolina made inquiries about a
car that Kevin was trying to sell
to his landlord's son.
The car, a 1980 Volkswagen
Rabbit, belonged to Gregory and
was the one Kevin was last seer
driving.

He returned Monday with Kevin.
"I'm glad he's safe and
sound," Mrs. Gregory said. "He
looks reasonably well. We're
hoping he will stay home this
time."
She said that she believes that
Kevin may have left home
because he wanted an adventure.
- Mrs. Gregory said that she is
grateful to the people who prayed
for Kevin and for those who called
to offer their support.

she responded, 4That sounds like
