Many of the disputes could be settled out of court with the aid of agencies in the area. And no one would have a court record using tijat problem solving method, he said.

The officer told him little change could be affected in the area until residents were re-educated in other ways to live. "Until we can train people's minds that we are human beings -- we don't have to be on drugs -we can get what we want legally," Davis said, "we are going to have problems." Mrs Newell said illegal drink houses are responsible for much crime and nuisance in the neighborhood. Drug usuers and prostitutes are keeping residents awake at night. And many older citizens are afraid to even sit on their porches after dark she said. It is a. farce to read in the newspapers that someone has been shot in a "local drink fi WHj GOING ^3^oxaxy \ 1 \ ... in th Chronicle C FIND OUT ON PAGI ?

And their Community Penalties Program often arranges for victim restitution and rehabilitation for non-violent felons. "There are a lot of people who bring things to court that might be solved by another avenue," Honaker said. Many people seeking warrants in domestic disputes later drop the charges in court. But they must pay court costs of $40 each time, he added. And they can accumulate criminal records of their own for making false reports or using the courts to harrass another person. iiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii :rom Page A1 PM*:' " *~ *s ** * ' >' >^v .'. }'"*\l**. >d in the 1400 block of Parkview man). house," she added, "if the newspaper and police department know it's a drink house, why is it x still there?*' Mrs. MswgU said residents ac- , nfeprtdS much In the community 1 in the name of "I can't tell on my brother." She urged those attending the meeting to turn in their own mothers and brothers if the relatives were committing illegal acts. "you ar not only harming yourself, you are harming the neighborhood/' she said of residents' reluctance to aid police in investigating criminal activity. A square of the city bounded by Cleveland and Cameron avenues and 12th and 17th streets is the target area for "The East Winston Community: Bringing Itself Back," Mrs. Newell said. If the project is successful, other areas will be added later. The area has been designated for urban ffcnewal by the Board of Alderman as part of the redevelopment plan for East Winston. Sub-standard housing is slated for demolition along Cameron and Gray. The land is then to be sold to private developers for rebuilding with single family dwellings.

The suspect will be arrested when served with the warrant but only has to appear in court on a designated date to answer the charges when served w ith a summons, said John Alexander, the first and only African-American clerk of court. The clerk asks the complainant to swear in with his/her left hand on a Bible and right hand raised. Testimony is then heard, and if probable cause is established, the -clerk-_k&iies the warranty or summons. The same procedure is followed when someone is arrested by law officers. The suspect is brought to the clerk's office before going to the police station for fingerprints and mug shots. After a warrant is issued against the suspect, the clerk sets bond for the defendant .

They cover all aspects of criminal activity from outstanding murder warrants to untendered traffic citations. The busiest shift at the office during week days is between 8 and 11 p.m. And Saturday and Sunday nights "run neck and neck" for busiest weekend times, Alexander said. . Many fraud and bad check charges are made during the day itiift, domestic violence offenses occur more often during second shift and third sees many people brought for drinking and driving, violations.
