Sometimes tomorrow is too

That same unexplainable,

Such is happening to a group
of students at the University
here. They refused to put off
"helping their neighbor," and
so they went out and found a
neighbor to help.
As a result of their efforts,
that neighbor and her nine
children will soon be moving
into a split - level nine - room
house, unencumbered by mort
gage. They will leave behind
them a three - room shack
next door to the new house.
The story opened a few
weeks back when the students
boys from Morrison Re
dence College and coeds
from the Nursing Dormitory
learned of the family and their
plight.
About a year ago a group of
concerned citizens began to
construct a house for them, but
along the way the project bog
ged down. Until the UNC
groups got into the act, there
was no guarantee when the
family would get to abandon
the shanty, one corner of which
stands shakily on a pile of
jagged rocks.
Students began by cajoling
merchants into donating things
need to finish, decorate and
furnish the house. They found
someone to give them beds,
paint, plaster, sheetrock.
They talked people out of tile,
pipes, linens, curtains. They're
still talking and still collect
ing, for they're determined
that the house will be complet
ed.
But they need all the help
they can gt.
A visit to the house, set far
back on an almost imnassible
dirt road near the Carrboro ci
ty dump, finds Drettv. soft -
SDoken coed Pat St. John of
Concord, dressed in smudged
bermudas and Carolina sweat
shirt, using a Daint brush for
the first time in her life.
In different rooms of the
house more students are Daint-
ing, plastering. Outside a cou
ple of boys lay pipe to the

septic tank, not an easy job
on the rocky, hilly terrain.
Several of the family's chil
dren wander about, now accus
tomed to the presence of stran
gers, but still a little shy. One
of the little girls fondles a
guinea pig, unmindful of its re
lation to the hoards of rats
which radiate from the near
by dump.
As they work and tell about
their project, the students' en
thusiasm glows. Almost 50 of
them have been taking turns
on the 1-5 p.m. shift each af
ternoon and on Saturdays.
The older children and the
mother also help with the
house, when they're not in
school or working.
Pat, one of the group lead
ers, said, "We try to fix things
like the mother wants. It's
more like we're all working to
gether, than a matter of us
working for her."
Now the mother is going to
have a new house, a house
which will have cheerfully
painted walls, a washing ma
chine, a large bathroom,
warm weather-proofing a
modern house.
Ward Mailliard of Washing
ton, D. C; Gary Boggs of Sea
ford, Del.; Byron McCoy of
New Bern, and John Ellis of
Greensboro are others heading
the project.
"We really appreciate them
letting us do it. We get as
much out of it as they do,"
Ward said.
Byron, who is governor of
Morrison, said, "Most students
live in such a tight society and
never see anything else. This
is a good education for all of
us.
When this house is complete,
with its aluminum siding neat
ly applied and its yard land
scaped, it may look like any
other. But somehow it seems
that it will look different, be
cause if personal attention is
what makes a house a home,
this one has a head start.

I Average Drinker Downs 3.4 Gallons 1
NEW YORK (UPD If you are an aver
:: age drinker, you may consume 17 bottles of
:: liquor in 1966.
:: This 3.4 gallons amounts to 290 drinks
: a year or less than one cocktail a day.
I;;: Statistics compiled by the Licensed Bev
:j: erage Industries shows you are consuming
: no more liquor than your father or grand
father did in 1934, the first year of Repeal,
g It was 3.4 gallons per drinker then, too.
: In 1934, the adult propaultion totaled 77.6
x million, of whom 17 million, or 22 per cent,
: were drinkers. In 1965, the estimated adult
x population was 116.5 million, of whom 83.3
: million of 71.5 per cent were drinkers,
x Dr. Harold A. Mulford cf the University
: of Iowa, made a study which showed a
sharp increase in the acceptance of social
drinking since the end of World War II.
His report, published by the Rutgers
Quarterly Journal of Alcoholic Studies,
showed that in 1946, an estimated 65 per
den carried by working moth
ers and the effects on their
health and home-life.
However, a harsh economic
reality has prevented any sub
stantial reform working wom
en provide needed labor for
the government and are a ma
jor wage-earner for their hus
bands. In a society where women
are a 54.4 per cent majority,
Russian women hold an unus
ual place. Three-fourths of all
physicians, two-thirds of all
economists and nearly half of
all factory workers in Russia
are female. The world's first
woman space explorer was a
Russian. And, Soviet women
have received about one-third
of all government awards and
medals, particularly that of
"Hero of Socialist Labor."
Each year about now, the
Kremlin newspaper and infor
mation agencies roll out with
these and other facts to show
show Communism has truly
made -women "equal'' to men.
The occasion is Internation
al Women's Day, a sort of So
viet version of Mother's Day,
celebrated each year on March
8, and including all women re
gardless of marital status.
Tass, the official news ag
ency, points out that the Su
preme Soviet, Russia's rubber
stamp parliament, includes
390 women, more than lithe
number of women elected to
the parliaments of all the cap
italist countries of the wofld
taken together."
All of this lends a more po
litical than sentimental atmos
phere to the Women's Day ob
servance. But the "emancipation" of

the Soviet woman has not
been without its problems.
While working in factories or
on farms, the women are still
expected to raise families, find
time after working hours to
shop for groceries, to cook,
wash clothes and fulfill other
obligations as a wife or moth
er. All work and no play has
bothered some Soviet commen
tators who have voiced con
cern in the past about the
women's crowded work sched
ule. "Housework occupies about
seven hours and twenty min
utes of her time, a second
working day!" said Kommun
ist, the party's chief theoreti
cal journal. "In truth, she has
no time left to satisfy her
spiritual needs."
The Kremlin has also be
come worried about the heavy
burden of domestic duties
borne by working wives and
mothers and the lack of mod
ern household conveniences to
ease their burden.
A study of this problem by
the Congressional Joint Eco
nomic Committee last year
noted that the burden is in
creased by the relative scarc
ity not only of such household
aids as vacuum cleaners and
washing machines, but of such
things as hot or even running
water and of refrigeration that
makes infrequent food shop
ping possible."
The high percentage of full
time working women, plus the
demands of professional life,
has discouraged women from
having more than one or two
children and contributed to a
21 per cent drop in the Soviet

cent of the adult population of the U. S.
drank occasionally. By 1958 the percentage S
had declined to 55. S
In 1963, the number of occasional drink
ers had risen to 72 per cent representing
80 million adults. A projection of these
these studies indicated that by 1965, the
percentage of consumers had increased to $
71.5 per cent or an estimated 83.3 million ij:
adult consumers.
By age, the study showed that the high
est number of drinkers 78 per cent were x
among people between 21 and 45. The per- :
centages decline in the upper age brackets,
betwen 46 and 55, where the percentage
drops to 66 per cent, and over 55 to 59
per cent. $:
On the basis of this study, it is expected
that the socially di inking adult population g
will increase to a total of about 100 mil-
lion by 1975. 3
birth rate since 1950.
There are other problems
too. Ill health among working
mothers and in-adequate chil
care facilities are two of the
most frequent concerns men
tioned in Russia.
The Kremlin also appears to
have recognized the need to
relieve the sheer physical tasks
expeted of women who have
been known to hold such jobs
as stevedore, construction
worker, coal miner, logger,
porter, truck and tractor driv
er. Some Soviet circles have ex
pressed dismay that the Rus
sian woman appears to be
valued more as a wage-earner
than an opinion-maker.
