Harkin. who has a deaf brother, is the chief Senate sponsor of a new civil rights law for the disabled. Harkin, who repeatedly accused rinton and Tsoneas ot being warmeo- over Republicans, congratulated his n- .Yvals and pledged in a wry parody of ' John Kennedy to campaign for who ever became the nominee. "I will pay any price, bear any bur ' den, learn to speak Greek, develop a Southern accent, or learn to wear a turtleneck," he said, "to ensure that a Democrat is elected president in 1992." Plant owners, manager indicted in Hamlet case t ROCKINGHAM The owner of Imperial Food Products Inc., his son and an employee were indicted Mon . day on 25 counts each of involuntary manslaughter in connection with the , .-.fire that killed 25 people last Sept. 3. Indicted by the Richmond County grand jury were owner, Emmett J. Roe; his son, Brad M. Roe; and plant man ager James N. Hair. The fire at the Imperial chicken pro . cessing plant in Hamlet, a community . 60 miles southwest of Fayetteville, also . injured 56 people. Federal officials said the plant had no fire alarm or sprinkler system and its . exits were unmarked and doors were locked. The grand jury rejected District At torney Carroll Lowder's request to in dict the plant's maintenance supervi sor, Kimlee B. Mangus. on the same charges. State Labor Commissioner John Brooks had recommended the district attorney seek homicide indictments against the poultry company officials. "The evidence is all about workplace safety " I nwder said when asked why . h nctpt far involuntary manslaughter charges. "That's what the evidence sup ports in my opinion. . The Associated Press ment at a specialized center?' But over all, the benetits outweign me cosis. Since 1984 the children have been placed together at the day care. During the first tew months ot integration, a study recorded all comments made to the special needs children by the others. Bryant said: "What they found was that all the recorded questions and state ments were pointing out the differences between each other. Kids learned to accept the special needs children by recognizing their differences." Bailey said there were no negative comments at all. "Most of the children asked 'Why can't she talk?' or 'Why can't she walk?'," he said. "There was somecuriosity about special equipment, but there was no teasing or rejection." Bryant added, "It would be interest ing to follow a long-term course of study asking how and if these children develop prejudices and what promotes this. Although integrating school-agechil-dren has been mandated by law since 1974, day-care integration wasn't ad dressed until 1986. Day cares are now required to serve special needs children in the least restrictive way possible. "There is a movement toward serv ing kids in a normal environment," Bryant said. "Of course, this is not pos sible for every child." Bailey said the center only admits children with mild to moderate needs, such as Down's Syndrome, cerebral palsy or mild developmental delays. Bryant said, "Research is still being done on the best way to serve severely handicapped children, and it is unclear what the best situation is." Bailey said he thought that the center could accommodate children with se vere handicaps, but that admitting one of these children would skew the results of the research. "We usually refer these families to other local programs which are more specialized," he said. While the day care is the most visible aspect of the FPG-CDC. other things are going on behind the doors of the center. Not only does the center provide child care, it serves as a place for re search in child development and as a training ground for UNC students. Founded in 1967. the FPG-CDC forms one branch of the University's Child Development Institute. FPG CDC studies the psychological and edu- Primaries cational areas of development. Doran said, "By working there, 1 have the opportunity to become up dated on the issues. I feel like, being in that environment, I am on the cutting edge of research." At the FPG-CDC, while UNC stu dents practice their skills and noted researchers evaluate important studies, young children are learning to become more tolerant and accepting of different backgrounds. from page 1 Campus Calendar of the state's GOP voters cast uncom mitted ballots, despite the fact that the president was the only Republican can didate in the race. Former Louisiana legislator David Duke, still haunted by his past associa tion with the Ku Klux Klan and other white supremacist groups, will appear on seven ballots in today s races. Bruce Buchanan said Duke may win close to 10 percent in some states but should not shake up the Republican ranks; Duke won about 7 percent of the vote in last Saturday's S.C. primary. "(Patrick) Buchanan has stolen so much of his thunder, but there is a group that still responds to (Duke's) racial message," Bruce Buchanan said.
