Those of you who know Brother Riddick realize he is going to start on time. lam sure there are others like your scribe who usually have to get a little help, I mean remember ing the password, but I still will go to the meeting. I only said that so you will not stay away from the meeting just because you don’t know the password. There are plenty of them who are in the same boat, especially in the men’s depart ment. There were forty-three per l sons in attendance at the meet- mg Sunday. Brother McGowan of 4 Durham led brief discussions on the State Education Dept., the Shrine and the extra collections and fees ac the State meeting. State vice president, A. A.

Among them were a rest home for the aged members, a strong educational program and a re creation cen'er with a swim ming pool and all the neces sary things to attract the young as well as the old. Twenty men and twenty-three ladies rep resented lodges from Chapel Hill, Durham, Henderson and Raleigh, We are concerned as to why Sanford has not been represented at the last tw s o meetings.

The desegregation of schools has certainly taken its toll on Black secondary principals in the two Carolinas. Out of some two hundred, a few years ago in the Tar Heel State, I don’t think you can count ten now. The same thing applies to the Pa’metto State. Most of the former Black principals of sec ondary schools were made as sistant principals and you should see their duties. Ac cording to the reports given your writer, they range from bus duties, including janitorial service and, of course, there are some who help with ad ministration when it comes to the Black students.

Show Plays Host As UNCF Kicks Off Drive In State The United Negro College Fund (UNCF) formally opened its 1970-'7l fund raising cam paign last week. The fund, composed of 36 predominately Negro Institu tions of higher education, with 6 of the institutions located in North Caiolina, officially open ed its campaign with a press conference at Shaw University, one of the member schools. Administrators of the six pri vate colleges and universities in North Carolina were present to launch the $400,000 Drive which will be u 'ed for operating expenses for member institu tions. Dr. Prezell Robinson, presi dent of St. Augustine’s College (also located in Raleigh) acted as spokesman for the six North Carolina institutions .‘Dr. Rob inson said for the first time in the history of the Annual Drive, UNCF in North Carolina is at tempting to have a cooperative effort under one umbrella. "The funds raised in this Drive are not slated for any kind of capital campaign,’ 1 he said "UNCF at tempts to designate an amount equaling 10 percent of each member institution’s current expenses, annually. Watts Hill, Jr. former chair man and now member of the N. C. State Board of Higher Ed ucation, chairman of the State Drive, said during the press conference that, ''These col leges and universities need our support for many special rea sons. Anyone who has worked in public higher education as much as I have in recent years know that students at radition ally black colleges, (public and private), have the greatest need for financial assistance if they are to have access to a college education. Endowment is mini mal and nonexistent at these colleges. Where the need is greatest, the resources have been least.’’ He added "Prob ably no group of colleges have done as much with so little as have the UNCF institutions.’’ Hill reminded those present that 85 percent of America’s black physicians and 3/4 of this country’s black PH.D.’S are alumni of the 36 UNCF colleges, an achievement without paral lel. He said UNCF colleges de serve the nations support be cause of their special com petence.

He is a freshman in college and I am just sick about this because ah my liopes and dreams have b. >■:. wrapped up in this hoy m i 1 have always told him I would make any possible sacrifice to see that he go through college. Now he says he will have to quit school and go to work to provide for his family. I im just heartsick about this. Johnny’s father died when lie was very young, and he and I have always been so very close: I will feel lost without him. We have never been separated. I was almost glad I could not af ford to let him go to college away from home because I would have missed him so.

I think tiiey really love each other, to ■. 1 have told him I would liewillinc to pay the expenses of the doc tor, and hospital, if he and his wife would live with me.

The Psychiatrist’s Corner By JAMES H. CARTER, M.D. Dorothea Dlx Hospital AI COHOI ISM The attraction of man to al cohol has existed throughout history. Countless fruits have produced, by countless techni ques, many forms of alchollc beverages. Always, too much B DR. CARTER of this good thing led to excesses and intoxication,| and the struggle within society for and against t! o use of alchol the use of al- ( cohol was wag ed. I Primitive so- cieties early identified intoxica tion with religious fervor. Dur ing intoxication, primative man felt that his mind was expand ed and he could then converse with his gods. Even as alcohol freed him from the bonds of his inner self and his outer reality, the transcendental state of in toxication caused a decreased capacity for battle and an In creased vulnerability to attack. Therefore, laws and limits had *o be controlled, giving us our first moral attitudes foi and against drinking.

C., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10. 1970 reaching a more complete un derstanding of alcoholism. The study of alcohol prob lems and alcoholism has been the concern of many Investi gators to include psychiatry. What is alcoholism? The terms "alcohol addiction, chronic al coholism, abnormal drinking, problem drinking or alchollc problems’', have all been used which, to me points out our lack of understanding about alchol- Ism. Many physicians use the de finition of the "World Health Organization’’ which states "Alcoholism is a behavioral disorder of long standing, as seen by repeated drinking of alcoholic beverages in excess of tiie community and to an ex tent that it interferes with the drinker's health or his social or economic function.’’ lam not totally happy with that defini tion because I have had patients who were clearly "Alcoholics’’ to argue the point that they were not alcoholics because they were able to "hold a job.” Ap parently they had seen or read that definition and were using the fact that they were em ployed as an excuse to continue drinking rattier than admit their problem. The use of alcohol has been an integral part of most societies during their re corded histories, and there Is no evidence to indicate that drinking alcohol will, in the foreseeable future disappear. My own definition of al coholism is that I see it real ly as a long standing disorder manifested by the undue pie occupation with alcohol and its use to the detriment of physi cal and mental health, by loss of control when drinking is be gun and by a self-destructive attitude in dealing with person al relationships and life situa tions. I wish to focus on pre occupation rather than on a mount or excess. Too often the emphasis on excessive use of alcohol is a means of self protection for our social sys tem that actually promotes al coholism. In this sense, the teetotaler who has never tast ed alcohol but who is constant ly uncomfortable In the pres ence of alcohol or others us ing it is preoccupied to a suf ficient degree to produce his own dysfunction and difference and could also be thought of as suffering an alcoholic problem. The self-destructive com ponent of this definition is quite important. Man is a social ani mal, and his ability to relate emotionally to others is a meas ure of his psychological de velopment. Furthermore, his ' We’ve come 0 long way... nil fjjl iV ! 5 JAN’7O form 3 I - | Banking has come a long way || since the horse and buggy. f§ But one thing at our bank has never changed.

When he re sponds behaviorally so that all efforts of progress are offset and the only key to life’s prob lems is in alcohol, I see his behavior as self-destructive. There is no single personali ty configuration in alcoholism but rather, as experience has shown, alcoholic problems may and do occur in any and all types of psychological disor ders. Os 80 million users of al cohol in this country, it is es timated that there are 5 mil lion alcoholic persons. Male alcoholics exceed females by 5 to 1. However, more women seek treatment than men. When ever people talk about alpoholic beverages, they are, in effect, talking about ethyl alcohol. Al though a large number of com pounds may be chemically de signated alcohols, ethyl alcohol is the common denominator of beverage alcohol, whether wine, Ko er. or whiskev. Ethyl alcohol in its pure state ts a colorless liquid with little odor but a strong stinging taste. The char acteristic alcohol breath comes from the odor of the aromatic oils resulting from alcohol and water mixture rather than from alcohol Itself. There are many treatments of alcoholism. That there are many forms of treatment does not mean that treatment is inef fective but merely indicates the wide diversity of problems that have to be dealt with in the treatment. Treatment has to be tailored to the needs and resources of the individual. Whatever the treatment made, the evidence indicates that the most Important factor is the re lationship of the patient with another person or group. Whether in a clinic, group, phy sician or Alcoholics Anonym ours, there must lie a positive tie between patient and treat ment setting. Too often the e valuation of alcoholism treat ment is based on the criterion that there must he permanent abstinence. Like in all long standing conditions, relapses are the rule rather than the ex ception. This fact which is often misunderstood, frustrates and infuriates therapists and creates in feelings of guilt, failure and hopelessness. Family adjustment, and oc cupational effectiveness along with a reduction of drinking behavior may be more effec tive than imposing total abstin ance on the patient, making him miserable and nonfunctioning. 11
