White Ex-Minister’s Wife Say sßlacksDeserveßeparations § TARHEEL V s ELKS ON THE *MOVF,^ A BY A. J. TURNER V N. C. Publicity Director It is interesting to note that the interest In the National Shrine, which is under contruc tion in Wlnton, is gaining mo mentum by the day. As we move around in the various states, we find that both the Brothers and Daughter Elks are very much keyed up over the fact that the National Shrine is now a reality. There is no doubt In my mind that with this program being under way, it will have a tendency to bring in a lot of new blood and also get back It he few deserters that we lost. I I think, if there was ever a lime that we needed to form a Bkolid front, it is now. Grand B;xalted Ruler Hobson R. Reyn olds and the lodge cannot do any more than we let them do, I mean by that, lie can give of time, his land and anything else he desires but he must have our support morally and fi nancially to do the job that lies atiead. I am saying tothe lodges and temples everywhere "let us do our duty in helping to build the Shrine."

Husband, Wife Leave Church; Claim They Couldn ? t Change It NEW YORK-The wife of a former Protestant minister, who is white, declared in a magazine article, released Thursday, that the Blacks have the “right” to demand money from churches for use by Black community. “For too long the Black man has contributed his sweat and tears to all of America’s white institutions, including the Church, and has received little in return,” Mrs. Floyd Marker of FI Sobrante, California, charg ed in the current issue of Redbook magazine. Mrs. Marker, whose husband left the ministry in 1968, said that he did so because of the racial prejudice he found among the majority of church mem bers. Mrs. Marker said that when she and her husband were criticized for working for fair housing and other equal rights she realized, "It is all right to talk in church about social problems, but for the Church to taking an active part Is solv ing them--that’s going too far.” She recalled in her Redbook article that she first became Involved in civil rights in 1950 in Reno, Nevada, when she wit nessed the racial injustice which existed there in hotels and restaurants. She continued her fight as her husband mov ed around from parish to par ish in Central California. The oreludice she found amone par ishioners made her realize whv the Black man has eone from “nonviolence to mili tancy,” she said.

GLORIA RIGOSBEE Dear Gloria; I started taking birth control pills a month ago, not knowing at that time that I was already pregnant. Os course, as soon as I realized I was going to have a baby, 1 stopped taking them. Now I am w-orried that the pills may have harmed the baby. Is this possible? Or could they cause me to lose the baby? My husband and I had not plan ned to have a baby just yet, but now that we are expecting, I don't want to have anything go wrong. Mrs. \V, Dear Mrs. \Y.: No, the birth control pills you took will not have any effect on the baby, nor w ill th.ey cause .a miscarriage. You did not men tion seeing a doctor since you discovered you are pregnant. If you have not yet been to the doctor, please do so--regular doctor visits during pregnancy are very important, both for your health and that of your baby. * * » Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: There are so many kinds of birth control pills now--but only different brands, but dif ferent strengths, I understand some pills are stronger dosages than others. How does a person decide which one she should take 0 P. R. Dear P. R.; A woman doesn’t decide which type of birth control pill she should take. This is one reason the pills are not available, ex cept by prescription. A woman needs to be examined by a doctor and interviewed by the doctor or a nurse or social worker before a decision is made as to whether or not she should take the pill at all, and if so, which of the many types of pills now available she should take. Birth control pills are a drug, and Just as with any oth er drug, even aspirin, there are a few women who should not take them. As I have said before in this column, only a doctor is qualified to decide whether or not you should take the pill and what brand and dosage is best for you. That is why you should never borrow pills from a friend or obtain them in any way other than by a doctor’s prescription. >4* * * Dear Mrs. Riggsbee; I hope you don’t mind getting a lette'r from a 12 year old girl. Some girlfriends and I have The Psychiatrist’s Corner By JAMES 11. CARTER, MIL Dorothea Dix Hospital 'THE SEXUAL DILEMMA* OF COLLEGE STUDENTS A few days ago, I was in vited to speak to a group of local college students on the subject of Sex, Courtship and Marriage. This article is a sequel to that event. A num ber of interesting quest ions m wr DR. CARTER were raised by the students to Include the causes of homo sexuality and in cest. Because of the magnitude of those issues, I feel special at tention should be devoted to each at a later date and .for the moment let us focus our attention on the ques tions raised concerning sexual morality and the apparent di lemma of the college students. The sexual code that guides many of today 's colleges stu dents is far different from that of only ten years ago. College physicians mat not all agree exactly on how the sexual prac tices have changed or whether the new sexual freedom is to he endorsed or rejected, but tiny all agree that there has been a qualitative change. Not only is sexual activity more openly dis cussed, but that the assump tions on which morality is based are themselves changing. The old deterrents of vene real disease, pregnancy, and fear of detection are gone; in stead of relying on negative controls or fear, we are com ing into a new time of positive control by personal commit ment and responsibility. It is upon this premise that across the country universities are permitting male and female stu dents to live in the same dormi tory facilities. Any society has to have some check or regulation on its sevn.ii behavior if it is not to be gravely affected by internal tensions. The absence of any controls on sexual behavior is advocated by some as being the solution to the Social conflict, personal misery and viclance. If sexual talxios and the emotional reactions as sociated with them could lie re moved, the argument goes, a world free of tension and guilt could be created. been talking about going swim ming when you have your peri od. One girl who goes to high school says the girls go in the pool whether they are “sick” or not. But some of us have been told by our mothers never to go in swimming at that time of the month. What is the right thing to do about this.’ S. 1, Dear S. T.: Os course I don’t mind i eceiv ing a letter from a 12 year old. I am delighted to hear from anyone who has a question con cerning reproduct ion or any matters relating to this general area. Nowaday, mos’ doctors, health teachers and physical education teachers agree that it is perfectly all right lor a girl to go swimming during her menstrual period, provided she wears a tampon or prevent the water from !>ecorr. ing con taminated. Swimming or bath ing in very cold water may stop the menstrual flow tem porarily, but indoor pools are generally heated. It is true that, in your moth er’s day, it was generally said that it would be harmful for a girl to go swimming or even shampoo her hair, but this is no longer the case. The normal, healthy girl should suffet no ill effects from swimming, no matter what time of month it is. And please, don’t refer tothe menstrual period as being “sick”. This is another “old fashioned’’ term which should no longer be used. Having men strual periods is a normal bodi ly function of a healthy female, not a “sickness!” * * * Dear Gloria; I w’ould like to have a copy of that free booklet you men tioned one time, about tests and treatments for people who want, to have a baby, but have not been able to. I can’t remem ber the name of it but hope you know which one 1 mean. b.s. Dear S. S.: The booklet you want is call ed “fertility Tests and Treat ments” and I am sending you a free copy in the mail today. This booklet, or a booklet which explains birth control methods, will be sent free of charge to anyone who requests one. Send your requests and your letters to: Mrs. Gloria Riggs bee, 214 Cameron Avenue, Cha pel Hill, N. C. 27514. THE CAROLINIAN RALEIGH, N, C., °DAY, OCTOBER 31, 1970 People who take this point of view are usually Ignorant of both history and psychology, because experience seems to show ihat whenever unrestrain ed sexual freedom has been tried it resulted in social chaos. However, the new climate of sexual freedom has a number of advantages over that of the pas l , particularly in the healthy elimination of much of the guilt, hypocris secrecy, and morbid fascination which have in the past clouded physical relation ships. There is no reason for the older generation to assume that standards are being aband oned ; ust because the issues are being openly discussed. It is not sexual behavior that determines character, but character that determines sexual behavior. The frankness with which this particular group of young adults discussed sex is without a doubt much more refreshing, natural, and appropriate to man’s basic nature than the tenseness, overrestraints, and artificial separation of physical and e motional love required by older standards. Most psychiatrist believe that this new freedom leads to greater emotional health, better ability to com municate with others, and de creased tension during the early months of marriage. Most college psychiatrists have come to the conclusion that the students who ignore sex ual standards are not more happy or effective than stu dents who observe those stand ards; they are, in fact, the ones most affected w ith depres sion, anxiety and the loss of self-esteem. Therefore it seems safe to say that although sexual restrictions can and do produce emotional disorders, complete sexual freedom pro duces .-ven more disabling con flicts. The essential task of college education, psychiatrist and administrators as well as faculty members-is to learn what freedom and what re straints are necessary and bow to set these up in the total context of college life. Finally, sexual relations will be satisfying or not depending on whether the total relation ship is satisfying. What, then is matun sexuality and how is it ittaii First of all, it is a respect for the sexual com ponent of the personality. It means an acceptance of sexual feelings and urges an appropri ate ps; chosoxual relation with We’ve come a long way. *.
