Students Demonstrate Teamwork In Innovative Technology Class Ten middle and high-school students have spent the month of July in an innovative program designed to introduce them to careers in technology and engineering. Working out of Enloe’s new engineering lab, the students have spent five hours a day working in electronics, robotics, computer aided design, computer graphics, aeronautics, and laser and fiber optic communications. The students each assembled a nine-inch color television, while lear ning about broadcasting and receiv ing principles. This project demonstrated teamwork, attention to detail, and complexity characteristic of careers in technology fields. Participants visited a summer pro gram in science and engineering at the NCSU School of Engineering and toured IBM, DuPont, and En vironmental Protection Agency facilities at the Research Triangle Park. They met with engineers at each facility. They also visited classes at Wake Technical Institute. The participants discussed prepara tion required to gain entry into technology careers. Eight middle-school and two high school students were selected for this program from students nominated by their counselors. The students were not selected on the basis of grades and achievement, but on the basis of potential and interest. The intent of the program is to motivate students to pursue careers in engineering and technology. The program was funded through vocational education funds from the State Department of Public Instruc tion and Wake County Schools. On Friday, July 28, from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m., students will be demonstrating their projects in the Enloe High School engineering lab, Room 124 W. Enloe High School, 128 WOHo 1 Coa*r*ct.

(AP i— James Brown may have hurt his chances for parole by having almost $40,600 in checks and cash in violation of state Department of Corrections regula tions, a spokesman said. "A violation of prison regulations could very well cost him some of the time he may have already built up," said department spokesman Francis X. Archibald. “That could affect the length of time he’ll serve on his sentence.” Brown, 56, of Beech Island, was moved last Wednesday to a higher security prison for violating the policy concerning the amount of cash inmates are allowed to possess, Ar chibald said. The spokesman said among the things the parole board considers are whether a prisoner has followed the rules while in jail. “Everyone knows the rules when they come in, and they're given a written book with them," Archibald said. The singer was found to have more than $40,000 in certified checks from a Georgia bank in his possession, and almost $600 in cash, Archibald said. Brown was moved last week from State Park Correctional Facility, a minimum-security institution, to Stevenson Correctional Institution, a TEACHERS WANTED! Applications are now being ac cepted for staff at “The Vital Link r Private School” Call 834-1025. medium-security facility, where he is locked in a cell by himself, Archibald said. Department regulations say no prisoner may have in excess of $50. That's to make sure that inmates can’t plan escapes or pay for other crimes or things of that nature,” Ar chibald said. Archibald said Brown would re main locked in a cell by himself while department officials investigate such things as where Brown got the money and why he had it. The spokesman said he didn’t know how long the in vestigation might take. Brown is serving a six-year sentence tor aggravated assault and failing to stop for police during a chase across the Georgia-South Carolina border on Sept. 26. His parole date is May 12, 1991. Brown, known as the “Godfather of Soul, had such hits as “Papa’s Got a Brand-New Bag,’’ and more recently, “I’m Heal’’ and “Living in America.” OIC Distributes Commodities In Wilson, Aug. 23 Wilson OIC announces the con tinued distribution of USDA surplus commodities, Aug. 23 and 24, from 8 a m to 5 p.m. During this distribution foods available will be butter, honey, peanut butter, egg mix, dry beans and canned pork.

Governor Lawrence Douglas Wilder of Virginia, speaking of his college experi ence. “We all knew who we were and where we needed to go, and what we needed to do to get there.” Wilder, the nation’s highest-rank ing Black elected state official, attributes that world-beating attitude to the inspiring role models he found at Virginia Union University, one of America’s Black colleges. In an atmosphere of high intellectual quality, young Douglas Wilder discovered what he calls, “the high possibility of the individual "And following in a tradition that has produced outstanding scholars, profes sionals and public servants, he went on to a brillant career as an attorney, state senator and civic activist. Is it any wonder that, though they enroll only 20% of Black college students, Black col leges produce 40% of Black college graduates? When you’re considering colleges, doesn’t it make sense to consider the ones that educated achievers like Lawrence Douglas Wilder? Attending one could lead to a great future. x America’s Black Colleges Are You Smart Enough To Go?
