WILLIAMS Chrnr cle Maniging Editor A professor at Win ston-Salem State Univer sity says he has been unjustly denied tenure despite a majority vote by the senior faculty mem bers in his department.

He will not be eligible for reinstate ment at the end of next year's school term.

Reginald Tyrone Attucks. the owner of Vargrave Hair Designers, was charged wvth trafficking in cocaine, possession of drug paraphernalia and maintaining a business to sell drugs following his March 4 arrest. "It was a set up and a scam." Attucks. 44, of 3190 Shaftsbury Lane, said this wefek in a brief telephone interview. M.L.

Southern said. He said a report on the drug's quality had not been com pleted, but he said it was "fairly decent" and he esti mated the cocaine's street value at $28,000. Southern said authorities had known for some time of allegations of drugs being dealt out of Vargrave Hair. But it was only until recently that they were able to prove it, he said. Southern, who also works with the Northwest Piedmont MultiCounty Drug Task Force, said that about six days prior to the bust, a police informant allegedly bought cocaine from Attucks. The task force also used an undercover agent, who was inside the business and saw the buy. Southern said. Once a warrant had been obtained, the detectives searched the business and found a set of scales often used to weigh drugs. Southern said. Then we looked up and noticed this hole in the ceiling," Southern said. First the officers found the pipe and tost tube, then the cocaine. "He was very cooperative," Southern said, referring to Amicks' behavior dur ing the search and his subsequent arrest. Southern said Attucks "pleaded ignorance to a degree" concerning the drugs, but. "never said, 'No, it.'s not my stuff.'" Attucks taces a Reginald Attucks maximum of 20 years if convicted on all the charges. Southern said. Attucks said his lawyer. Michael Grate, recom mended that he not talk about his case. Please see page A3 TO SUBSCRIBE CALL 919-722-8624 ?
