PTA thrift shops' $200,000
By KATHERINE SCHULTZ
Stall Writer
The PTA thrift shops may mean low prices on clothes
and housewares to their customers, but they mean
everything from computers to field trips for area schools.
Profits from the two thrift shops, operated by the
Parents and Teachers Association, are distributed among
the Chapel HillCarrboro school system's nine schools.
Last year, the two stores, located on Jones Ferry Road
and at Kroger Plaza, made $200,419.
Elizabeth Politi, the manager of the shops, said the
community was largely responsible for the impressive
figure.
Items in the shops comes from donations from com
munity members, who can use the value of the donation
as a tax write-off, Politi said. "The response from the
public has been tremendous."
Politi said that the shops were staffed by several paid
employees but that much of the work was done by parents
who volunteer.
"The volunteers launder and mend clothes, repair
items, work in the shops and help with window displays,"
Politi said. "By volunteering they earn points for their
child's school, which is part of the basis for distributing
the money at the end of each year."
The money earned by the thrift shops is distributed
among the schools according to enrollment and the
number of hours parents have volunteered, Politi said.
Sixty percent of the formula is based on enrollment and 40
percent is based on volunteer hours.
700 U.S. Army
The Associated Press
FORT BRAGG A contingent of 700
U.S. Army soldiers among the Grenada
occupation force will return home today
to a welcoming ceremony and reunion
with their families, a military spokesman
said.
The reduction of U.S. troops on the
island they invaded last month is a sign
that tensions there are lessening. Al
though they still conduct anti-guerrilla
night patrols in the high country of
Grenada's interior, the soldiers say
they're also assuming roles of policemen,
administrators and mediators of domestic
disputes.
The returning 82nd Airborne Division
soldiers will arrive at Pope Air Force Base
near Fort Bragg at about noon today,
said Master Sgt. Gene Welbaum. "It's a
definite reduction of our presence on
Grenada," he said. "We aren't replacing
these troops."

"The PTA Thrift Shop Board allocates the money to
the schools, and then the individual PTAs decide how
they want to use the money," Politi said.
For the 1983-84 school year, Chapel Hill Senior High
School was allocated $40,000, according to Julie An
dresen, the school's PTA president.
"This money has been great because it has allowed us
to buy so many extras that the school-system budget could
not afford," said Andresen.
However, a problem with the success of the thrift shops
is the school system's dependence on the money for buy
ing essentials like supplies and textbooks, she said.
Andresen said that of the money allocated to the
school, $3,000 was used for supplementary books, $3,000
for an office computer, $1,000 for music-department
sheet music and $1,000 for math-department supplies.
"It's a matter of principle," said Andresen. "We don't
want the school system depending on our money $or
things they should buy, but we don't want the children to
be without these things either.
"We work with the teachers, students and the principal
to determine what the school needs most. We are not
obligated to buy these essentials, but if we don't, who
will? That is why we keep doing it."
Andresen said that every department at the school
benefited from the thrift shop money, as well as every
teacher, who each received $50 to use as a discretionary
fund for class activities.
"Besides giving money to each class teacher, we also
gave $3,000 to the foreign language department so a full
time person could be hired for the program," Andresen

The troops will be reunited with their

U.S. forces invaded Grenada on Oct.
25 with the stated aim of protecting
American civilians following a bloody
power struggle within the Cuban-backed
leftist government of Prime Minister
Maurice Bishop, who was killed.
President Reagan later accused Cuba
of plotting to establish bases on Grenada
to export leftist revolution to the island's
Caribbean neighbors and claimed the
Americans invaded "just in time." Cuba
has denied the accusation.
Members of the occupation force say
their combat role is largely over.
"It appears to get a little quieter every

day," said Col. Terry Scott of the 82nd
Airborne Division, ground commander
of the 2,000 combat troops here, as he
toured U.S. positions in Gouyave, Car
riacou and elsewhere on Sunday. "We
don't kid ourselves, there is still some
mopping up to be done."
Deep in the wet, lush jungle country
west of the capital, Capt. Mark' Rock of
Plantation, Fla., told Scott that the south
central section of Grenada appeared free
of Cubans or other resisters. But he said
"the potential is there" for people who
wanted to hide.
"The people in this small section are
not as friendly as they are in the rest of
the island," Rock said. "They are more
reserved, some bordering on unfriendly."
But the captain showed a petition pre

to the art department. Because we were able to give the
debate team that money, they were able to compete in
state competitions, and they have done very well."
Ephesus Elementary School received $23,168 for the
1983-84 school year.
Melinda Wilde, president of the Ephesus PTA, said
about $5,600 of the school's allocation would be spent on
three Apple He computers and printers, and another $3 ,000
would go to buy playground equipment for the fourth-,
fifth- and sixth-graders.
The remainder of the money will be going for audio
visual equipment, encyclopedias and field trips, Wilde
said.
"The thrift shop money has allowed us to take the
children to sites outside the county, where they have never
been," Wilde said. "We've also used some of the money
to buy extra class supplies and arts materials."
The first thrift shop opened on Franklin Street in 1954
and was run by the Chapel Hill Arts Guild. The money
raised was used to hire an art teacher and buy art supplies
for the public schools, according to Mary Bushnell, chair
man of the board of directors for the thrift shop.
Bushnell said the Arts Guild decided in 1955 to let the
PTA run the shop after it experienced problems with mer
chants recalling the rental space.
"They (the Arts Guild) decided that a larger group
needed to run it, so they could purchase a permanent loca
tion," Bushnell said.
The Franklin Street store closed in 1979 when the new
Carrboro store opened. A year later the Kroger Plaza
shop opened.
for the safety, peace and security of this
island."
Scott told a reporter accompanying
him that many residents of the island of
1 10,000 people "are not happy about the
pulling out of our combat troops. Some
of them are scared to death that condi
tions will go back to what they were
before, with thugs and hoodlums having
control."
On the out island of Carriacou, just off
the northeast coast, 2nd Lt. Robert
Scurlock of Charlotte, and a platoon of
rangers are camped out in a warehouse
used for meetings and dances by local
residents. The building sits directly across
from the clapboard city hall, but the real
governing and administrative power rests
with Scurlock.
"He's the lord mayor," said Scott.
The Americans have stopped young
hoodlums from beating up residents and
stealing chickens and pigs, he said.

Arafat's backers from several

The rebels, seeking to drive the

unilateral cease-fire. But Arafat said he
knew nothing about a truce, and that
his fighters were being besieged from
land and sea. Artillery fire and gunbat

Firing hundreds of shells and
rockets, the dissident Palestinians and
Syrians pushed forward from the

Tripoli, into the northern neighbor

NEW YORK An alleged stickup

prosecutors said.
Samuel Lockett, 33, claimed he was suf

In April, he had his insanity plea ac

four Brooklyn stores 18 times in December

But prosecutors, belatedly checking

CHARLOTTE Eighteen "very

Monday when part of an unfinished
hospital collapsed suddenly, sending
debris and people tumbling to the

Workers were pouring concrete atop
a steel roof over one wing of University
Memorial Hospital when it caved in
shortly after 9 a.m., said Al Pruitt,
spokesman for Charlotte Memorial
Hospital, which is building the new
satellite facility.
Two workers were under the roof
just before the collapse, but "somehow
they anticipated it would fall and
jumped clear. They were not injured,"
said Pruitt.
"It happened so quickly, I just went
on with it," said Rufus Mims, one of
the workers who escaped unhurt.
"We were very lucky nobody got
killed," said Mecklenburg County
Police Capt. M.A. Dawkins Jr.
Eight of the injured workers were
treated for cuts and bruises at Charlotte
Memorial and released. The others
were in stable condition and none was
expected to be admitted, Pruitt said.
