The trustees, approved a proposal to seek more than $1,293,000 in funding for the stadium. Dr. Lewis C. Dowdy, chancellor of A&T, said it is hoped that 1500,00 of the amount will be sought in a campaign from friends and corporations. The remaining $729,000, he said, would come from student lees. The new A&T dean of the School of Arts and Sciences is Dr. Frank White, who will succeed Dr. Arthur F. Jackson. Jackson stepped down from the post last year to return to teaching. White has been serving as acting dean since then. The higher fee structure will include slight increases in room and board, linen rental, student activities and for debt services. Dowdy said the proposed stadium, to seat 20,000 fans, would be constructed on the university’s present practice field on the campus. He said that a successful drive would mean that the new facility would be ready for use by next September. The new facility would be constructed of steel with aluminum seating and backs and owuld contain concession stands, locker rooms and an Aggie Booster and VIP clubroom. Dowdy said the univer sity will seek 1,000 individual or corporate contributions for the sta dium fund. Contributors of $500 or more will be given a lifetime pass for the stadium events. Dr. White is a native of Elizabeth City, N.C., and (holds the B.S. degree from Hampton Institute, and the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from New York University. He has done further study at the University of Pennsylvania, Syracuse University, and Carnegie Mellon University. Dr. White has taught at the University of North Caroline at Greensboro, Fort Valley State College, Shaw University, Jackson State College, Texas Col lege and Bishop College. He has also taught in several North Carolina High Schools. Dr. White’s wife, Mrs. Gladys White, is a reading teacher at A&T. The Whites have two daughters. In other action, the board of trustees named several new buildings. The new cafeteria was named for the late Dr. F. A. Williams, director of development, and the proposed physics- mathematics building will be named lor J. M. Marteena, former dean of the School of Engineering. East Hall and gymna sium was named for the late Martin Holt and the new women’s high rise dormitory was named for the late Mrs. Zoe P. Barbee, the area’s first black woman commission- The power plant was named for T. E. Neal, the African heritage house for Mrs. Mattye Reed, the athletic field house for the late Reginald Strickland and the maintenance build ing for the late Clyde DeHuguley. Jackson Continued from Page 1 tunities for all students who seek these opportunities in these colleges,” said Sampson Buie, a member of the planning committee. The Coalition was also active in efforts to secure the state’s proposed veter inary school for A&T and for improvements to the law school at North Carolina Central. A native of Greenville, S.C.* Jackson led demon strations for racial equality while a student at A&T. Following graduation, he moved to Chicago and became a valuable lieuten ant of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, heading King’s Operation Bread basket. In 1971 Jackson split with Breadbasket to form his own group, which is active in seeking economic gains for blacks. Buie said a number of other educational and political figures are ex pected to join Jackson in participating in the pro gram. Reservations for the banquet may be secured in the Office of Continuing Education at A&T or from members of the Coalition.

Who is Dena Warren, you are probably asking. Well, she’s the most delightful young lady that you’d ever want to meet. Born under the sign of Gemini, she is a very independent person who has a very good idea of who she is and where she wants to go. Dena, a freshman from Washington, D.C., sets a fine example for everyone on the campus, not that she trys to do that, but because its her nature. She is very supportive of college acti vities and always has a smile for those who meet her out on the lawn. “Dena Warren is the most strong willed and determined young woman that I know,” stated another freshman. “We tell her Dena, you can’t do this or wouldn’t it be easier for you if you did it this way.” You see, Dena is a victim of cerbral palsy. Nonethe less, she has conquered all fears of making it in the outside world. “There are more non handicapped people in this world titan there are handicapped and I may as well get out there and learn to function with them,” she says. When she applied to Bennett, the Admissions Office was very hesitant about accepting Dena because the college was not equipped to handle ex treme disabilities. How ever, after making contact with Dena and her sister. Continued on Page 6 Questions and Answers on How The IRS Checks Tax Returns for Errors What happens to your in come tax return after it is filed with the Internal Revenue Serv ice? The IRS checks for var ious types of errors. Following are the answers to several questions frequently asked by taxpayers on how the IRS checks income tax returns: Q. Is my tax return audited before a refund is sent to me? A. No, but the IRS does a preliminary check of your re turn for mathematical correct ness and completeness. The IRS also has an "Unallowable Items Program" to see if a re turn has a claim for items the tax laws clearly do not allow, or if all the forms needed to support amounts claimed are attached to the return. Q. Can the “Unallowable Items Program" delay my re fund? A. Normally, the program at most would only delay pay ment of part of your refund. When a refund is due, and a return contains an unallowable item, the IRS withholds only the portion of the refund affected by the unallowable, and a letter from the IRS service center is sent to the taxpayer explaining the diffi culty. The part of the refund that is not questioned is sent to the taxpayer after normal processing of the return. Q. What If I disagree with the IRS finding of an item as un allowable? A. When a taxpayer disa grees and provides information to show that the item is allow able, then the part of the re fund that has been withheld is released. If the taxpayer does n’t provide information to cause the IRS service center to reconsider its finding, then the matter is referred to the tax payer's IRS district office. Dis trict office employees will then arrange a meeting with the tax payer to resolve the matter, Q. other than failing to In clude a form with a tax return, what are some of the common unallowable items? A. Some taxpayers err and don’t deduct $100 from each single casualty loss they suffer on non-business property. (Pub lications 547, "Tax Informa tion on Disasters, Casualty Losses and Thefts," and 584, “Workbook for Determining Your Disaster Loss," provide helpful information and are available free of charge from the IRS.) Other taxpayers make a mistake by subtracting from their income the payments they’ve made on their life in surance or homeowner’s insur ance premiums. These personal expenses are not deductible. Still others deduct their entire medical and dental expenses, when they should deduct ex penses only to the extent they exceed 3 per cent of the ad justed gross income on line 15 of Form 1040. And some tax payers do not realize that they may include payments for med icines and drugs in their medi cal expenses only to the extent the costs exceed 1 per cent of adjusted gross income. Q. How does the IRS select returns for audit? A. The answer to this ques tion lies in the purpose of an audit—that is to make sure that the correct tax is paid, not a penny more or less. Conse quently, the IRS tries to iden tify tax returns most likely to have errors. Primarily, the IRS uses a computer program called DIF (Discriminant Func tion). DIF actually is a series of mathematical formulas that score various items on a return and how the items relate to each other. Normally, high DIF scores point to a high probabilty of error. IRS employees check returns selected by DIF to learn if local or other factors have created a high DIF score on a return that otherwise would not require an audit. Q. Is there anything I can do to avoid selection of my retum for audit? A. No, not absolutely. Both DIF processing and random sampling make it possible for any return to be audited. On occasion, audits result in re funds, rather than tax bills. Moreover, taxpayers who pre pare their returns carefully, and keep good records to back up the entries on their returns, needn’t worry too much about an audit.
