Genesis House, a Chapel Hill based drug rehabilitation center, has taken the
first step toward completion of a two-and-a-half-year-old dream. After more than
30 months of financial dependence, the center has an opportunity to become self
sufficient, according to residential director John Kernodle.
Genesis House has gone into the stable business.
"You can get your horse into the pasture and hay category, the pasture, hay and
grain category or just about any combination you want, Kernodle said.
"We have stalls, private stalls, stalls with concrete floors and stalls with running
water, he added.
In addition to receiving room and board, your horse can also be trained. Or, if it's
you and not your horse that needs training, riding lessons are also available from the
House.
The stables are a major part of an overall self-reliance plan the Genesis House has
been working on with the aid of two graduate students in the MBA program in the
School of Business.
The project was made economically feasible when the residents of the House
decided to raise the feed for the horses. Other crops are also raised on the center's 1 58
acres.
And if your fear is that your horse will be lonely among the corn stalks, fear not.
Half of the pasture land is for cows.
"We don't plan to make any money on the cows, Kernodle said. "We'll just break
even with them. But even if we do just break even, it'll be a good thing because
sombody's learning how to raise cows.
Genesis House was started-in February of 1971 by Robert J. Senior, a local
pediatrician, after he noticed the citywide concern for drug users.

The Southern pine beetle, a familiar pest
throughout the state is continuing to kill pine
trees in this county and others across the
state, according to Orange County Ranger
Larry Allen.
A massive effort to control the insect,
undertaken last fall and winter, has
prevented more extensive damage, Allen
said.'
"The main way to control pine beetles is to
cut down the infected tree. By the time the
tree is discovered, it is for all practical
purposes dead anyway, even though it may
remain green for a few day like a
Christmas tree when it's cut."
A CTION seeks
more volunteers
Representatives of Action, the federal
agency which incorporates Peace Corps,
VISTA and several other volunteer
programs, will be on campus the week of
Sept. 10-14 recruiting for perspective
applicants. The recruiters will be at the
Carolina Union and the Y Court daily from 9
to 4:30 p.m. to answer questions about the
program.
Students with majors in education, math,
science, law, social sciences, health, business
and liberal arts are needed for programs in
49 slates and 60 countries.
Pine beetles kill a tree by tunneling
through it, thereby cutting off the flow of
nutrients from its roots.
"They usually hit mature trees that have
been weakened by floods, a hurricane or
lightning." Allen continued. "This before
they build up a big population. They can
multiply in that tree and. then attack a
healthy tree. If they have abig population
and move onto your trees in a two acre lot,
they're gone."
Last summer, beetles destroyed over
800,000 board feet of timber, or
approximately SI 20,000 worth of trees,
Allen said. This summer the largest number
of trees cut down in one area was 25.
"We know we can't liquidate the problem.
Pine beetles arc always present. It's when
they get large populati ons that they cause
trouble. Battle Park's a good example of
how they can spread like fire," Allen said.
The only preventative measures one can
take, according to Allen, are to keep trees
healthy or to cut the treeswhen they have
reached full maturity.
"Of course, there are aesthetic reasons for
not cutting a tree, so really there's not much
defense," Allen added.
Fall web worms are also becoming a
problem, he said. These worms form web
like nests in the forks of tree branches and
defoliate the trees.
"The really don't hurt the tree, though,"
Allen said, "because by the time they become
a problem, most of the nutrients are stored in
the roots and the leaves aren't needed. They
just look bad."
