Martin believes North Carolina will be one of the five finalists for the project, Pittman said earlier this week. If so, regional support might give the state an edge, he said. Martin, who is the chairman of an education committee for the SGA, chaired a round-table discussion on training and retraining workers, Pittman said. The governor spent much of last week preparing to chair the first governors News Analysis ducting super collider project. The governors hope unified regional support will help attract the multi mUlion dollar project, Rotterman said.

Karen Rotterman, Martin's direc tor of communications, said Thurs day the governor is pleased with the present direction of the SGA. In the past, it (SGA) was like a mini-congress," Rotterman said, "but that isn't the case anymore because the states have more autonomy." The states now try to work with one another as a region without worrying so much about politics, Rotterman said. Martin regards the SGA convene tion as "a wonderful idea to bounce vote in resolMtioe9 governments to fill the voids left by cutbacks in federal programs, espe cially in the areas of health care and the environment, Penn said. A report from the Durham-based Southern Growth Policies Board emphasized the need for economic and educational programs in the South, Penn said. "TV A A Path to Recovery," a report by the Southern States Energy Board headed by Virginia Gov.
