HI maloti 4.0 U1C VUlcl o ui i>orin Carolina will be asked to make a decision involving 13 capital impro vement projects in the campuses of the University of North Carolina System. The 13 construction projects, total ing $43,276,000, were authorized by the 1975 General Assembly. They include, in the words of one Univer sity chancellor, building to meet “yesterday's needs” such as a $6 million classroom-office building for UNC-Charlotte, a $2.1 million social science building for N.C. A&T State, a $2.2 million communications building for Winston-Salem State, a $1.2 million library addition for Eliz abeth City State, and a $4.4 million science building for Fayetteville State. Evidence shows that bond financ ing of capital improvements has proven to be a good way to meet the physical facility needs of our state supported institutions of higher ed ucation. This kind of financing has allowed such unstitutions as N.C. A&T and UNC Charlotte to cope with the demands of new students over the past two decades. Support for the bond issue is of particular importance to blacks giv en that fact that black youth in increasing numbers are seeking ad iiuaaiuu iu uur cuiieges ana univers ities. For example, the U.S. Census Bureau reports that while blacks make up only 5 percent of all stu dents enrolled in institutions of high er learning in 1964, they represented 9 percent in the fall of 1974. Further more, the proportion of black fresh ment to all students in the fall of 1975 was slightly larger than the propor tion of blacks in total population. The Bureau said an estimated 12.3 percent of all freshmen last fall (1975) were black while blacks make up only 11.4 percent of the total population. It would appear then that blacks should support the bond issue for selfish reasons - namely, to help keep the doors of higher education open to black youth at a time when, historically, blacks are just beginn ing to reap some of the benefits of higher education. The projects at A&T, UNCC and the other institu tions across the state will enable them to better meet the growing demands of the state and the region for trained manpower. The bond proposals are sound and worthy of your support. Vote “Yes” on March 23 and contribute to the progress of North Carolina and the needs of black youth. Flip Wilson Special Will Be Seen Friday bringing people together is the avowed intention of Flip Wil son and company when they devised the inovative "Trav els with Flip” and “More Tra vels With Flip” television spe cials, the second of which will air on March 19, 8:30-9:30 on WBTV, Channel 3. "I consider my fans my friends," says Flip, "and to me, traveling is just introducing one group of my friends to another.” For the first “Travel” spec ial, he goes that one better and seeks out the unique on an international scale. Boarding a balloon in sunny California, Flip is transported to points East and the exotic lands of Hong Kong and Thailand. Once in Hong Kong, Flip met with the press and ex plained the genesis of the Spe cial. "I’ve always considered myself a people star, that being a star is my job. I’m people... and I think an aud ience responds to me in a very informal way and that's what we capture on film. “I feel that I’ve established Uiannel 4Z Wins 1976 Ohio State Award WTVI, Channel 42, the Char lotte-Mecklenburg Schools’ public television station, has won a 1976 Ohio State Award for an instructional television program entitled “So What Happened To You?” The prestigious Ohio State Awards, sponsored by the In stitute for Education by Ra dio-television at Ohio State University, are awarded for excellence in education, in formational, and public af fairs broadcasting. Judges, in "TKis oldest pro gram competition in broad casting chose 69 recipients of the coveted awards from a field of 815 entries represen ting the efforts of commercial and non-commercial stations and production companies in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, the Federal Republic of Germany, Egypt and Malta. Program entries are intended to educate rather than to entertain. The program was video taped in the WTVI studios with a creative writing class form North Mecklenburg High School. r1 a friendship with my audi ence," he continues. “I don't think they meet me as a com ic, but as a person, someone they can relate to honestly. I must say, this past year, trav eling around as we have, doing these specials, has been the most gratifying year of my life as an artist. "What makes it so excellent is that everthing is off the top...you shoot from the hip... you have to be totally honest and that’s the ultimate chal lenge for a performer.” Flip more than lives up to the challenge as he greets people in the market place of Hong Kong and at the gardens in Thailand, closer to home. I Flip makes points working out with the San Diego Chargers (he's their quarterback for one riotious day) and learns to shoot baskets with the Los Angeles Lakers. ! ~y BIG SHOWS Voted Most Valuable - Movie Of The Year jfcl Ofl ■ By The People At MiUU TIME ilJVXL AndTvou STARTS front Don’t Believe It Just Ask Them T-<)4)-A-Y Dilworth Theater CHARLOTTE ART1!? 123 W.
