Recently Harris Teeter, a
subsidiary of the Roddick
Corporation, a multi-million
dollar conglomerate,
announced plans to build a
new $8 million warehouse near
Indian Trail.
“They are borrowing lots of
money from local banks to
finance their new warehouse
in Union County where they
hope to avoid an employee’s
union,” said Coutlakis.
“Given the history of this
company, it’s our opinion that
North Carolina banks (loaning
them the money) are financ
ing unfair labor practices.”
However, Coutlakis doubts
if the NLRB ruling will have
any adverse effect on the
company being able to secure
loans. “Three of the Ruddick
Corporation directors are also
directors for North Carolina
National Bank,” said Coutla
kis, referring to directors
Thomas Belk, Alan Dickson
and Hugh McColl.
In February 1978 Harris
Teeter complied with a 1977
NLRB ruling by repaying
$41,000 in back wages to
Martin, Little, Wright and
Nixon. However, the com
pany is still appealing the
December Labor Board deci
sion and Harris Teeter Presi
dent, Hugh Ashcraft, Jr., said
it would be “inappropriate” to
comment on the case which is
still under litigation. The
company is appealing the rul
ing.
The company stated earlier
that “the ruling is not expect
ed to have any adverse impact
on its financial condition or
earnings.”
Harris Teeter doubled its
gross sales in the last 5 years,
reaching $284 9 million in 1978.
Net profit was $6.5 million, up
from $4.4 million in 1974.
“Their profits are up, yet
they refuse to settle the half
million dollar debt to their
employees and refuse to sign a
labor contract after 2Vi years
of negotiations," said Coutla
kis
ner present position
Providing merchants with
insights on what the demand
will be for a particular item is
part of Maizie Hale’s job. The
merchants determine how
much goods they want to
order.
“Suits, skirts and dresses
are being worn more frequent
ly by women on a professional
level,” she commented.
"Women have rediscovered
the quality of a 2-piece suit.”
Employee training, recruit
ing and developing women to
work for Sears in fashion
fields are also her responsibi
lity.
Ms. Hale recommends
women take business courses
in addition to having a back
ground in the arts and model
ing to be successful in the
fashion industry.
Born in Athens, Georgia,
Maizie Hale was raised in
Lincoln, Nebraska She
attended Agnes Scott College
in Georgia for two years and
was graduated from the Uni
versity of Nebraska.
In 1976 Ms. Hale was
appointed to the Sears Inter
national Fashion Board which
advises buyers of Sears fash
ion merchandise around the
world.
Ms. Hale, who is divorced
and has three sons, is a past
regional director for the
Atlanta Chapter of the Fash

of American Women in Radio
and Television. She is also on
the Board of Directors of the
Atlanta Ballet Company.

Beef Sale!
WINN-DIXIE has earned the name “THE BEEF
PEOPLE** because we are beef experts...and
we would like for yon to be an expert when yon
are buying beef. Know what to look for. Freezer
beef is a big investment...make it wisely.
QUALITY: Beef varies in quality more than any other meat.
Making sure the quality you get then, is even more important
when you are buying beef than any other meats. Beef quality
is measured by the United States Department Of Agriculture
(U.S.D.A.) and is rated in grades - in descending order, Prime,
Choice, Good, Standard, Commercial, Utility, Cutter and Canner.
All of the beef sides and quarters WINN-DIXIE sells are graded
U.S.D.A. Choice.
YIELD GRADES: Another important beef measuring device
is the Yield Grade. The Yield Grade measures the amount of
usable red meat from a beef carcass and it can vary greatly.
Regardless of the quality grade. Yield Grades range from 1
(noting the highest Yields) to 5 (the lowest). WINN-DIXIE guarantees
our sides and quarters to be Yield Grade 3 or better. Make sure
you know what you are getting. An often found grade among beef
packers is Yield Grade 4 or 5. Some ads don’t specify Yield Grade
at all. The difference between, say, Yield Grade 2 and 5 is almost
14% in usable red meat and if you are buying a 300 pound side of
beef that adds up to 42 lb. difference in edible meat.
