Blackwelder who she says "is the best bossman in Char lotte."

She says she plans to spend more time in her yard working with her flowers. "I love all flowers but I like azeleas most", she said.

Keid r amily Gathers Here For Reunion The Keid family reunion 'was held recently at Metropo litan Church with approxi mately 200 members and friends in attendance. The affair began with out of town members arriving from as far away as Michigan. Everyone was excited and thrilled at the opportunity of seeing family and friends a gain. Thomas Wolfe said, "you can never go home again; that the baby bird can never return to the nest of his fathers; that when you leave you may as well take all your memories and all your fantasies with you." The Reids proved him wrong with the success of their reunion. Born to the marital union of the late Jane and Charlie Keid were 14 children. Those at tending the reunion were Her man, Charlie, Cora Reid Ca routhers, Mattie Reid Kearns, and Viola Reid Grier with their children and grandchild ren. Mrs. Helen Price, Mrs. Lula Watson, and Mr. Olin Carou thers were the coordinators of the reunion. The grandchildren were re sponsible and participated in (he program which consisted initially of a welcome to fami ly and friends by Kevin Carou thers, who was the emcee. Family and friends sang "Come Thou Almighty King". The scripture was chosen and read by Bertram Hogue - Genisis. 17:10-18. Prayer was lead by Rev. H O.

He was commenting on . news stories reporting that the State has asked a federal court to reverse its 1975 ruling that the requirement of a minimum score on the Na tional Teacher examination for teachers certification was unconstitutional. The 1975 rul ing was that the State's use of the ΝΤΕ discriminated against blacks and other mi norities because more blacks than whites failed to make the minimum score, 950 out of a possible 1,800. The N.C. Attorn ney General's office now con tends that a recent Supreme Court ruling contradicted the action in the North Carolina ΝΤΕ case. "Perhaps the ΝΤΕ isn't the best way to measure a teach er's qualifications", O'Herron said, "though I wonder if educators wouldn't by nature be better judges of that than courts. As long as one court has ruled against the ΝΤΕ, it is imperative that the State take steps to provide a test that meets constitutional as well as educational standards. "I am sure that the educa tors of North Carolina, in the colleges as well as in the public schools, can come up with a proper evaluation. Un til this is done, we have no way of gauging a teacher's compe tence, other than in college transcripts and in interviews. The real worth of the tran script could well vary from campus to campus, and the skill of the interviewing offi cial could vary from school system to school system. The result could be disastrous for children who might be in classrooms with inferior teachers, while better qualifi ed teachers were still looking for jobs." O'Herron pointed out that the State Board of Education worked out a system of teach er certification some years ago, but that the General Assembly had then reinstated the ΝΤΕ cutoff score. "I realize that development of a valid and fair evaluation could take several years." O'Herron said. "But we can begin the task now, and I will ask the 1977 General Assem bly to come up with one to be used until detailed studies can Sacred Heart's Fund Raising Tops $300,000 Fund raising at Sacred Heart College topped the $300. 000 mark for the 1975-76 fiscal year. This figure is 35 percent higher than last year and 252 percent greater than fiscal year 1973-74. The increase in external support was noted in all areas including contributions from alumni, Trustees and Visitors, corporations, foundations, and other friends. The monies were primarily designated for building renovation, scholar ships for needy students, the e c-—:-i cij — νν···ν· ·ν· »^|/vvAui uuuvavivii and unrestricted uses. According to John Heiber ger, vice president for Institu tional Relations, the college is ahead of schedule in reaching the October goal of its half million dollar "Commitment Campaign" being chaired by Hugh McColl, president. of NCNB. Among the gifts to the College is a $170,000 challenge grant from the DeRance foun dation which must be matched in the next six months. "We want everyone to know of our success in receiving external support", said Sister Michel, president of Sacred Heart, "because it is a tribute to the worth of the College, its programs, and the many peo ple who have worked so hard; but, and I emphasize but, we cannot let up now. We must double our efforts if we are to reach our goal in terms of dollars and, most importantly, in terms of the programs they make possible." be completed." O'Herron pointed out that the Board of Governors of the University of North Carolina is planning a year long study of teacher training in all the State's institutions of higher education, including the pri I vate campuses. This study, he said, "will give us a better idea of what training is now being given, what changes should be made in this field, and what methods of evaliiâ ting prospective teachers would be best." 1 Vauable Coupon FREE Foot Long Hot dog With Every Roll Of Wallpaper In Stock Paper And All Book W Orders !
