Elon College's Daniele .......... ikes Life Of Teaching 

BY BOB HILES 
Dolly Nows Alomance 8ureeu 

ELON COLLEGE- People who lmow Dr. J. Earl Dante-
ley are hard-pressed to find a, dark side to the man with the 
bear-like handshake. 

He is a man of infinite jest, and inside his. 55-year-old body 
there purr the heart arid imagina&ion of a child, still full of mer-
riment and awe. 

For him, it's the secret of life. 
"I'm not sure I know how to teach yet," says the 33-y~ 

member of the Elon College faculty. "My teaching is always 
growing and changing. Unless a person constantly, gro~ an.d 
seeks he is saying either he has it made, or the situation IS 
hopeless." 

Hopeless is a word seemingly missing from Danieley's vo-
cabulary. 

"I'm bappy. I'm delighted with life. Right now I'm doing 
exactly what I want to do. If I had enough money that I 
wouldn't have to work another day, I'd still hope they'd let me 
teach chemistry at Elon Colleg!l." 

One Danieley colleague, Dr~ A.L. Hook, carne to Elon in 
1909 as a freshman. Today he works in the registrar's office. 

"There's always room for improvement," be says, "and J . 

.. 
.. My teaching is always growing and 

changing. Unless a person t•on!iltantl~· 1!. 
seeks he ,is saying eitht"r hf' has it made·. c 
the situation is hopeless. •• 
Dr. Earl j. Danieley .. 

ready to take a quiz I'll put them in the back of tbe room, and 
then check the answers while they watch. · 

"I believe In the mastery ap~. with every Jtud,ent It 
work, all the time. If I was lectunrJS I would be lucky to get to 
70 percent of tl}em. With this approach, a student can't hlde," 
he says. 

The study guide was jUJt one of the "new methods he looks 
for," says Varona Danieley. "He truly loves his teac:hing, and 
he's so proud of the students who succeed." 

Danieley also is proud of the small, liberal arts college. He 
is the personification of Elon College. 

''The movements of the 1~ and '701 were inevitable, jiv· 
en the pressures of those times," he says. "As colleges respond­
ed to those pressures, many lost emphasis on and the value of a 
liberal arts education. 

"I see college as not just preparing people for jobs or more 
education, but the means of laying the foundation for educatiJIII 
people. It's quite different from professional or technical educa· 
tion. 

"We in science need to educate those In humanities," be 
adds. "Many problema develop because we don't understand 
each other." 

According to Hook, one of Danieley's best qualities is giving 
students the desire for knowledge, and teaching them bow tD 
learn. Earl Danieley takes advantage of that. Anything new, he's 

ready to try. He's a sound thinker, others are motivated around 
him, and his philosophy of life is all right. I've always observed 
his method." 

Putting a label on that "method" isn't easy. D~eley is-the 
round peg that doesn't fit the square definition. Friends say _his 
immense vitality, and drive rome from his well:round~d lif~, 
split between teaching, the church, his garden, mcreasmg his 
knowledge and many other activities. 

Thomas Hamilton of the Elon College Church o( Christ. 
"There is a very hlllllanness about him," says Hamilton. 

His first class is at 9, but Danieley is always in his office by 
8. 

"Schools should search for methods to teach better," Dan-
ieley says. "We run into the problema of students who can per-
form math by rote, but they don't know why they're doing it. 
They do have some notion that it's more respectable to d.lvidl! 
the small number into the large one, but quantitative reaaonill(l 
is lacking. 

"Nobody writes more recommendations than him, and be's 
constantly baking pies to give to the neighbors." 

Danleley quit lecturing his classes a couple of years ago. 
That's when he discovered the true usefulness of television. 
Now he tapes the lectures and students only have to watch 
them if they need to. 

Danieley and his wife, Varona, may be the closest thing 
around to a real-life Ozzie and Harriet Nelson. They're just 
plumb nice folks. 

"There are so many little things that 12rl I)anieley does 
it would be impossible to keep track of them," says the Rev. 

Danieley seems to enjoy life so much he doesn't want to 
miss a moment. He says he gets about s~en hours of sleep a 
night. 

'Tm not one of the those real wide awake people in the 
morning," says his Wife, "but he is. He gets up at 6 a.m. ancl 
either works in the garden, rea~s or prepares for school." 

The madness in Danieley's method is not to escape being 
with the students. He taped the lectures so he could spend more 
time on one-to-one learning. 

"Another great concern is to develop programs that take 
the abilities of students into mind. It needs to be done in the 
context of the institution, not special and apart 

"I would rather see highly talented people remain in local 
high schools and be taught there. There is an obligation'to ~ "I wrote a study guide last year and every student moves 

through it at their own pace," he explains. "When someone is (See Varied: C,7, Col. 1)

f;ourt Challenge To Force Wards 
' 

In City Viewed As Unlikely To Win 
\ 

BY WILLIAM MAJtCH 
D•IIY News Staff Writer 

H the city of Greensboro continues to vote down 
a change from its at-large system of electing the city 
council to a ward system, will the federal courts force a 
ward system here anyway? 

This question bas arisen in the city because of a 
rash of court rulings within the last 10 years that city 
government elections systems, mostly In the Deep 
South, are unconstitutional and discriminate against mi· 
norities. 

The issue has been raised locally as weU. George 
Simkins, 'eader of local black political groups pushing 
for a ward system, says he hopes to start legal action to 

force a ward system here if a- corning referendum on 
the issue fails. · 

But at least two local attorneys who have re-
searched the issue said they do not think such a suit 
could be successful in Greensboro's case. 

"We just don't have the characteristics of .the cities 
where the courts have ruled that city government was 
unconstitutional," said Vance Barron, who researched 
the question, ae part of a civic group study project. 

".[n my opinion, from my research, I'd say the vot· 
ers here can make up Utelr minds without fear that the 
court will take matters out of their hands," Barron said.

CHRISTMAS 

Rebuttal Begins In Somers Tr~al 
BY BRENT HACKNEY 

DaUy News StaH Wrller 

SALISBURY - When former State Sen. Robert Vance 'so-
mers, on trial .here 'accused of plotting a murder of a former 
business associate, talked with one of the men who have ~t­
ted involvement in the plot, Somers suspected he was being 
ta}>(:d and was careful to deny any involvement in the plot. 

That was the testimony here Saturday of Concord attorney 
James C. Jolinson Jr., himself a former state !Jt)nator, who was 
j:a.lled to the stand as one of several rebuttal witnesses for the 
prosecution. 

Johnson told a Rowan Superior Court jury Somers once en-
touraged him to represent a c<Hlefendant who was charged in a 
ll!ot to kill Donald Reid Hankins of Salisbury. Johnson said he 
llltimately refused to act as counsel for the co-defendant, Salis­
bury adult bookstore operator Ronald Mothershead, despite So-
~· request that Johnson take the case and "work closely" 
.lrith Somers' own attorney, Allen Bailey of Charlotte. 

&liners a Republican lawyer who served two terms In the 
North CaroHna Senate, is accused of plotting an attempt to kill 
.Rankins. The prosecution is attempting to prove Somers wa~ted 
Hankins killed becau~ of a civil suit that Hankins has filed 
cbar~ing Somers had stbk!n business secrets from HaniUns and 

used that information to set up a competing business. 
It had been expected that the case would go to the jury 

Saturday, but the pr()Be(!ution's rebuttal witnesses spent most 
of the day on the stand, and the defense ~ expected to produce 
its own rebuttal ~en the trial resumes Monday morning. 

Mothershead and another co-defendant, Robert Wilbelm, 
have turned state's evidence under a promise of immunity from 
prosecution. Mothershead has testified that Somers hired him 
to arrange for the murder of Hankins and that he (Mothers· 
head) in turn hired Wilhelm to carry out the killing. 

Hankins' car was hit by a shotgun blast on the afternoon of 
June 20 as he was driving along a rural road east of Salisbury. 
Hankins was uninjured. 

Somers was indicted Sept. 21, on the basis of evidence sup-
plied law enforcement officers by Mothershead and Wilhelm. 

A few days after Somers was arrested, he talked with Wil-
helm in his Salisbury law office. At the time, Wilhelm ha4 a 
tape recorder concealed on his body which hlld been supplied 
by the State Bureau of Investigation. According to the tape rec-
ording of that meeti~ and an accompanying transcript, Somers 
never acknowledged mvolvement in the plot against Hankins.

J.D. Brewer Peeks Inside Wood Stove

Prisons Moving . . 

To Wood Stoves 
BY WINSTON CAVIN 

Dlllly News StaH Writer 

The state's prison system is building wood .stoves ,to cut down on heating 
oil costs this winter. But the Department of Correction is moving deliberately 
- and slowly - with the project because pf possible drawbacks. 

At a time when President Carter has asked the nation to redouble its ener-
gy conservation effort, it might seem odd that prison officials are not ~bing 
wholeheartedly into the use of wood stoves. 

But 'Custody-conscious prison officials explain that, while the program 
should get high priority, the idea is more complicated than it at first appears. 

The major drawback, which state officials want to study closely, is appre-
hension that inmates would be hard to supervise while gathering wood on a 
large· scale - or that logs could be used to smuggle contraband into prison. 

"We need to examine carefully the control features, the safety features, as 
well as whether there really is a savings (with wood)," said W.L. "Kip" Kautz.. 
ky, deputy director of prisons. "We want to make sure we're on the right track 
before we install full-blown or. this thing." 

"This thing" began nine months ago at the Alamance County Prison Unit, 
where a wood stove was installed in a cellblock. 

Maintenance Supervisor Kodell Loftis, foreman Otis Ore and Alamance 
inmate Irving Bullard designed and built the stove while Alamance Prison Su­
perintendent Larry Tingen arranged for free wood to be obtained from the 
state Transportation Department. 

Tingen declares the stove a great success. "We haven't been through a 
whole winter with it yet," he said, "but I can deflnttely say It's helping. We 
haven't even cut on tbe oil circulator in the dorm yet." 

Tingen said the prison unit used 3,000 fewer gallons of heating otllast win-
ter than during the previous one. But he cautioned that the previous winter 
was more severe, makina it harder to measure the act~&al benefit of the wood 
stove. 

"I'd say it was 1,500 to 2,000 gallons less oil becaUM of the wood stove," 
Tingen estimated. "This coming winter ought to tell the tale." 

The wood stove program is expanding, however cautiously. A. second stove 
has been added at Alamance, in the dining haU. "It's a wanner beat than the 
oil heater was, covers the whole place better," the superintendent said. "We 
have an inmate specifically assigned to taking care of the stove. He enjoys 
the job." 

Other wood stoves are being built for the minimum-custody units in Mc-
Leansville in eastern GuiUord Co(mty and in Winston-Salem. Another stove 
will ~ used experimenta1ly at the mediwn<astody Caswell County unit. 

Thus far the wocxt stove program is not bein& eJpanded beyond the North 
Piedtnont area, one of six prison districts ln the state. 

Tingen and others In the prison system are enthusiastic because th~ ~ 
sqprces for using wood stoves are rtadtly available:

N.C. Ahead State And Co nty Deaths And Funerals 
In Autism 
Treatment 

BY PAT ALSPAUGH 
Oaolly Ne.,. Staff Wri .. r 

North CaroliQa is leading the United 
States and possibly the world in services 
for the autistic, according to· an interna-
tional authority on autism. 

Dr. Eric Schopler,t director of Division 
TEACCH at the University of North Car-
olina, bas recently returned from Eu-
rope, where he visited existing services 
for the autistic. 

He discussed his findings in Europe 
before speaking Saturday at the annual 
meeting of the N.C. Society for Autistic 
Children at the Carolina Inn in Chapel 
Hill. 

He said in his prepared speech that 
the only thing he had brought back to 
tJ:y in North Carolina from his tour of 
Greece, Belgium and ·the Netherlands 
was a test devised by a Dutch professor. 

"Dr. Snidijer Oomen, who is working 
with an educatiQnal program centered 
around Groningen University in the 
north of the Netherlands, has developed 
a test for non-verbal children," said 
Schopler. ~·we are trying out the test 
here." 

In Greece, he said, people have a 
tendency to hide their autistic children 
in the home. "Tbis makes it hard for the 
professionals to deVelop a program. It is 
a very traditional country dominated by 
villages." · 

Belgium has a residential ;home for 
tbe autistic but Schopler ~aid it is "built 
like a prison with windows at the top of 
the walls. They have no idea how to deal 
with these children," he said. 

Belgium has sent one of its specialisf:s 
in autism, Theo .Peters, to North Caroli-
na's Western Carolina Center in Ashe-
ville to study its services. Plans are for 
Peterl to set up a similar service in his· 
rountry, Schopler said. . . 

Schopler noted that the important dif~ 
ferences in this state and the European 
countries he visited is the collaboration 
between the parents and the legislature. 
lp Europe, . he says, there is no ~uch 
C()llaboration. 

"North Carolina is right up on top in 
trying to develop programs for the autis-
tic and handicapped. The effort between 
the parents and state is strong," said 
Sthopler. 

He said the n'ewest area of concentra· 
ijon for the autistic in the state includes 
workshops and group homes for the ad· 
ults and adolescents and respite care for 
parents in order to avoid institutionaliza-
tion of the autistic. 

Schople, said it costs $2S,poo a y~ to 
care for one autistic chlld m an institu· 
tion in No~ Carolina. And this excludes 
auy kind of education of treatment. In 
New York the cost is $45,000 per child,. 
he said. 

Also speaking at the meeting were Dr. 
Sarah Morrow, state secretary of human 
resources; Mary Akerly and Frank War-
nm, both of the National Society for Au-
ijstic Children staff in Washington, D.C. 

Cited at the meeting for outstanding 
contributions to the state society were 
Sen. Ben Schwartz of FayetteVille and 
~· Ralph Scott of Alamance County. 

The meeting was held in conjunction 
with the proclamation by Gov. Jim Hunt 
that the first week in December be ob-
served as Autistic Chll(!ren's Week.

Group Vows To Help 
Accused Eden Officer 

Oaay News, Sun., Doc. 2, 1979 CJ 

1 From ~-l ~ 
the outcome of the .charges. 

More charges against others are ex· 
pected as a result of the SBI investiga-
tion. The district attorney for the 17th 
JudiQial District has said charges or bills 
of indictments for assorted alleged 
crimes will be drawn against two cur· 
rent Eden officers, three former Eden 
police officers, one former Rockingham 
County sheriff's deputy, one current 
sheriff's deputy and two private Eden 
citizens. 

Chaney and Moore are not members 
of the Eden Fraternal Order of Pollee, 
therefore are not being supported by the 
organization. NCFOP officials declined 
Saturday to say what support the order 
would give other police officers who 
may get charged with crimes. 

charges against Martin are "the damnd-
est thing I've seen in my life." He says 
the fraternal order plans to try to help 
officers who get charged with crimes 
while trying to perform their duties. 

"f, as president of the largest police 
organizatio~ in North Carolina, abhor 
any malicious p~:osecution of police offi· 
cers doing their best to perform what 
are at best difficult duties," he said. 

"It has gotten to a point of police offi-
cers fighting police officers," be said. 
"Sometimes we're our own worst ene-
my." 

While Kelly didn't call tbe SBI charge 
against Martin wrong, he indicated that 
was how he felt. "I don't see the SBI 
taking out a vendetta against him 
... . l'd better not say any more . . . . 
They're only human:'' 

A spokesman for the SBI could not be 
reached Saturday for comment. 

The fraternal order is a prgfessional 
police organization that local police offi-

Ward System Here Would RefleCt U.S. Trend Local school superintendents from 
across North Carolina will meet In 
Greensboro Tuesday through Thursday 
for their annual winter conference. 

Phillips. 
Others s~uled to address the grOUI) 

include Assistant Attorney General Ed-
ward M. Speas, Dr. Betty Siegel, deaD 
of the School of Education at Western 
Carolina University and Ruth Wat.kinl 
and Lloyd Isaacs from the North CaroU. 
na Association of Educators. 

In the 1950s and '60s; according to Svara and sever-
al other political scientists; the cJvil rights movement 
spurted a trend In the opposite direction. Emphasis on 
the rights of minority races and the poor has led to 
drives to Jive these people mor!! .representation in city 
govenunent. The chief way to do that has been through 
ward elections, which more nearly assure the poor and 
&lack neighborhoods election of one of their own to the 
council. · 

"So far, this trend hasn't really affected the statis· 
ties on kinds of city government," Svara says. "But 
some cities are swinging to it, and academic people and 
experts on city government are swinging to it." 

Svara, who himself favors "some kind of a modified 
ward system" for Greensboro, is one of a growing rna· 
jority of political scientists who tilt toward ward sys-
tems now. Even the National Municipal League, which 
lett the drive for at-large systems in the 1920s, has re­
~Y n!vised its model city <tarter to include the op-
tion of a ward system, Svara said. 

T1too cities close to home that have followed the 
trend to ward systems within the past decade are Char-
lotte and Raleigh. Both have moved from at-large sys-
tems to modified ward systems. G~boro is now the 
only large d ty in the state with an at-large system. 

ln general, Svara say•. the trend is occurring mostly 
in the South and the West, where most cities have at-
large systems. The large northern and Eastern cities 
nearly all have ward systems. 

Thad Beyle, a political scientist at UNC-Chapel Hill, 
summarizes the position of many academics in his field 
this way: "Ward politics got a bad name because of cor-
ruption. The at-large system allowed more reputable 
people to get elected. But it had the side effect of de-
creasing ethnic minority representation. 

" Now times have changed, and we're experiencing 
some of the ills of the at-large System. People are think-
ing that the big problem now is better representation." 

Better representation for blacks arid for non-af-
fluent neighborhoods has been the chief argument for a 
ward system in G~;eensboro. 

One dissenter from the trend is political science 
professor JDbn East of East Carolina University. "I'm 
something of a maverick, I suppose " he. says, "but I 
think there is a case to be made for the at-large system. 
I think people should remerpber the reasons they went 
tQ it in the first place." 

All the experts agree there are certain differing 
tendencies that can be detected in the two kinds of gov-
ernment. As Svam outlines them, they include: 

• Philosophy of government. At·large council 
members tend to act as ,trustees, acting on theif own 

opinions, whereas ward-elected council memt>ers tend 
to act as delegates, expressing the wishes of their con-
stituents. 

• Cost and services. At-large councils tend to pro-
vide lower levels of city services, and a lower cost of 
government. Ward-elected councils tend to provide 
more services, and correspondingly higher cost ol gov-
ernment. 

• Contact with citizens. Citizens tend to feel closer 
to ward-elected representatives, and to know more 
about them. 

e Quality of council members. At-large council 
members are more likely ,to be experienced in business, 
management or a professional field and be better edu­
cated. 

e Polley decisions. At-large councils are likely to 
act mainly on citywide concerns. Ward-elected councils 
serve neighborhood interests more often. 

e Council conduct. At-large councils are more 
unanimous and have Jess public discussion and debate. 
Opposing points of view are less likely to be aired. 
Ward-elected councils tend to be more argumentative 
and divisive. There is more vote-trading and compro-
mising. 

e Campaigns. At-large council candidates spend 
more to rurr for office, use more advertising and seek 
the endorsement of cityWide groups. They are more 
likely to win vQtes by name recognition, incumbency, 
race or other superficial characteristics. Ward candi-
dates run lower-cost campaigns with more personal con-
tact and less advertising. Neighborhood groups and 
volunteer workers are more important. 

• Voter turnout. In cities with at-large councils, 
voter turnout is higher in upper-class 'and white areas. 
Switching to a ward system tends to improve lower­
class and minority 1up!outs. 

Concerning this list of cluu'acteristics, Svilra emt>hll-
sizes two qualifications. "First of all, these are tenden-
cies, not hard and fast rules," he says. "You can find 
counter-examples evetywhere." And, he says, "When 
'there is a mix of at-large and ward-elected seats,. these 
tendencies are weakened. The tendepcies can be most 
clearly seen jn pure ward systems and pure at-large 
systems." · 

Several ,of the political scientists who favor ward 
systerns say a return to wards would not necessarily 
bring about a. return to the political or corrupt practices 
that were associated with them in the past. 

"The ills that led to ,those reforms in the early 
1920's have by and large gone away,\' says David Law-
rence of the North Carolina Institute of Government in 
Chapel Hill. · 

"I think .it would be difficult for that atmosphere to 
return," B~yle says. "It was a political atmosphere, in 
which goodies such as jobs and w,(!lfare were traded for 
votes. Now, things _like jobs and welfare are provided by 

Suit To Establish Wards 

Viewed As Unlikely To Win 
., From c,:.II 

' At least one other toeallawyer, Lindsay Davis, Who 
l)lade a separate, independent study also aS part of a 
tMc group project, reached the same conclusion. 

But Barron and another lawyer with expertise in 
lbe field, James M. Nabrit of the NAACP Legal De-
fense Fund in New York, added the law on the issue 
soon could be changed. The U.S. Supreme Court, which 
lias never ruled on a case of this type, is expected tQ 
ftJle soon on what could be a landmark case involving 
Mobile, Ala. 

For the time being, however, both Barrop and Pav-
b think Q1e city ls safe from legal action on the issue. 
their reason Ia that federal appeals courts have said 
~laintiffs in such cases have to prove the city govern-
ment system was deliberately adopted or used so as to 
.discriminate against minority groups. In Greensboro's 
'1!3se, they said, that seems unlikely. 

"It's not enough just to show discriminatory im· 
pact," Barron said. "You have to show intent," 
·· The "discriminatory impact,'' he said, usually in-
Cludes two things: proof that minotity neighborhoods · 
*eive fewer or lower-q~ty city services and proof 
:that minority races have been underrepresented on 
~ected city boards. 

"If you can ,prove those two things, you can use 
•at as circwnstantial evidence of intent to discrimi-

!:lfate,'! Barron said, "but it isn't enough by itself. Tliere 
!'ii a whole package of characteristics that are usually 
lombined with that to show intent to discriminate." j 

_ Tbe U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, the so-
looalled "Deep South Circuit" which serves an area from 
~orida to Texas, has heard more such cases than any 
:other federal court. Barron said the Fifth Circuit has 
4eveloped a "laundry list" of characteristics of city gov-

ernment eleCtions systems showing intent to discrimi· 
nate. ' 

That A8t includes: 
·• Rules against single-shot voting. Single-shot vot-

ing is often used by minority voters to elect a candidate 
who might not be able to attract citywide support. 
Greensboro allows' it. 

• Requirement for a majority vote for election. In 
Greensboro, a candidate need liave only a plurality, not 
a majority, to win a city council seat. 

e "Place" rules, or numbered council seats. In 
some places, city council candidates are requited to run 
for specific seats. Greensboro does not have such a rule. 

• Lack of an established state or local practice of 
at-large voting. Greensboro adopted its present at-large 
system In · 1921. 

e A history of official, legally sanctioned discrimi-
nation against a minority. "Just about every city in the 
South has a history of this, including Greensboro," Bar­
ron s~Pd. "But Greensboro is probably less extreme 
than cities where there have been successful suits." 

In cities where lawsuits hav_e successfully chal-
lenged city government elections systems, Barron said, 
plaintiffs usually showed several of these characteris-
tics, plus a history of few minority council seat holders 
and a history of few city services in minority neighbor-
hoods. Greensboro, with about a 29 percent black popu-
lation, has ~ history of very few black city co.uncil seat 
holders. 

In the Mobile case, a Fifth Circuit judge ruled the 
city's three-member governing commission with mem-
bers elected at large, rendered it impossible for blacks 
to be elected. He devised a ·nine-ward system for the 
city. The city has appealed to the U.S. Supn!me Court,

Svara, ibough an advocate of ward systems ltimself, 
concedes one difficulty such a system could have. 
Green voters, he says, are tinged with "Proposi.

The Bethel. AME Church, located at 200 Rega~ St., will be the site of a 3 p.m. interfaith 
and interracial rally sponsored bY Greensboro church leaders in the wake of the Nov. 3 
violence that claimed five lives. Sponsored by 15 ministers and clergy from several 
denominations, the religious service is expected to draw several hundred people. Minis-
ters in both black and white churches throughout the city have urged their congrega-
tions to attend. Rep. Henry Frye will be the keynote speaker, and Mayor Jim Melvin is 
slated to give the welooming address.

A&T Plans Space Experiments 
A&T State University will be one of the few colleges in the 

nation to put some experiments litetally into orbit in the 1980s, 
aboard a U.S. space agency shuttle flight 

And to.encourage A&T students to 4esign some appropriate 
experiments, the university is offering more than $2;500 in prize 
money. Tk~ money will be divided among students who design 
the best zero-gravity experiments 'in three categories: biology, 
chemistry and physics/engineering/technology. 

A&T ~s been particularly interested in the space shuttle 
prograf!l e'er since .alumn';!S Ronald E. McNair was chosen as 
one of tts 35 astronauts, said Stuart Ahrens, associate professor 
of physics. - ~cN~ir, a 1971 A~T gradllflte and one of only three 
black astronauts m the space shuttle program, is a hero to many 
A&T students, Ahrens· said. 

"We saw our students as having an unusual opportunity to 
identify with him," and therefore with the overall shuttle pro-
gram, Ahrens said Saturday after explaining the experiment 
contest to about 25 students. The university has agreed to pay 
$10,000 to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in 
exchange fOr tlie right to put a 10~pound payload, roughly two 
cubic feet id s~. aboard an orbiting shuttle flight in 1983 or 

1984. The payload can carry three experimen4, all of wbic~ wUl 
be designed and built by students, Ahrens ,said. 

NASA's first shuttle flights may begin! next sumtner, 
said. 

Examples of possible experiments, Ahrens said, are the 
fects of weightlessness, or zero-gravity, on the germination of 
seed 01' on the grpwth of a crystaL The effects of gra 
though not ,gravity itself, will be absent when the craft is o 
mg the earth, he said. 

Contest entries are due April 1, and winners will be 
nounced a month later. Undergraduate and graduate stud 
will compete separately. Prizes of $250, $100 an4 $50 wi 
awarded for the three best entries in each category. 

In a separate contest, $150 will be divided among the e 
best builders and fliers of commercially available models of 
NASA space shuttle. 

· The prize money will come from grants from private ciil-
panies helping A&T raise tile $10,000 needed to rent spac r

noting afternoon and evening activities 
such as street preaching in nearby com-
munities, youth meetings and organized 
talks on various subjects. 

His big church has many youth mem-
be~. "Belonging to the church is a vital 
part of life, not just an institution," he 
said. "The rapidly growing· membership 
has rights and has to closely follow lts 
responsibilities." 

Church life in Ghana is much different 
from here, with being a Christian calling 
for total commitment and giving up 
much in life, he said. "It's much differ-
ent from here," said. Quartey. "Being a 
Christian calls for total commitment. 
You don't worship idols any more." 

Christians in Ghana are involved in 
communal living and looking after each 
other, and the youngest and oldest mem-
bers of the churches and their families 
join in church activities.

Quartey was amazed at persons need-
ing appointments to see a pastor. That 
woQldn't happen in Ghatla, he said. "If 
you need a pastor or feel you need him, 
you call him at 5 o'clock in the morn-
ing,~· he said. "Ministers are into eVery 
facet of life in Ghana. Tbey can sign le-
gal papers, sf!rving as counselors, law-
yers, preachers, teachers and other areas 
of responsibility." 

Churches are outspoken in opposition 
to such thi'ngs as drinking alcoholic bev-
erages but have been unsuccessful in op-
posing Sunday soccer matches. "People 
kill each other over soccer," he said of 
the sport's popularity in his homeland. 

In comparing cities here and ln 
Ghana, he said, "There is a lot more se­
curity in our cities. You can walk from 
night until morning without fear. There 
is no indiscriminate shooting in cities, 
but some occurs elsewhere." · 

He said life is good in the United 
States in that commodities are available 
that are scarce or unknown in Ghana. 
But he said almost everyone in his 
homeland disapproves of homosexuals 
and pornography and "sexual immorali-
ty isn't nearly as rampant there" as in 
the United States. 

Ghana doesn't have as much juvenile 
delinquency as elsewhere because of the 
extended family, said Quartey. He said 
the extended family consists of the im­
mediate family, grandparents, aunts, un-
cles and others. 

, · .. All -who have the same name live in 
the same place. You. can tell where 
S<>meone is from by his name," he said. 
"It is bad to shame the name, the flllll\­
ly." 

Ghana's radio and TV programs are 
designed for education and religious pur-
poses. "T~e public has a great d~al to 
say about what is on TV," he said. 
" Broadcasters and station executives 
were raised in the church.~' 

Qwirtey is pastor of the largest church 
in Accra, a city of more than 800,000 re-

' 

sidents. He came to Greensboro to expe-
rience Thankllgivlns and said it 
compares to a post-barvest celebration 
in his IK!meland. 

He said the holiday observance .liter 
harvest in August and September is "a 
big family reunion after the harveat: We 
give thanks to God and our ancestOrs. It 
is a communion of the Uvlng and the 
dead." 

Community and family supervision is 
so much a fact of life ln Ghana that "you 
have to come of 8f!e, demonatrati.Q£ that 
you can care for yourself, beloce beine 
allowed to smoke." 

The closeness of church congregations 
and families is demonstrated even in 
death. Only members of a church'• ron-
gregation can be buried in its cemEtery, 
but an open plot is provided for others. 

Quartey will spend another roontb in 
the United States before returning to hls 
African homeland. "rve learne4 that 
ministers here have time for leiaure. 
programming it into their schedult!!l;' he 
said. "We usually take Monday as our 
day off in Ghana, but people keep com-
ing over." 

Grinning broadly, he said he hopes to 
find a way to program some leisure for 
himself when he returns home.

December is almost always too early to think about 
snow in North Carolina. 

There has been enough snow for a White Chris~ 
only five times in the last 48 years in Greensboro and 
Guilford County, and only four times in the last 18 years 
has the weather in the state's mountains bee! wintry 
epough for the skiers to go down the slopes this early in 
the year. 

Things have been different in the mountains this 
,year, and althou~ the National Weather Service com­
·puters don't- give the holidays much chance for snow 
down in th~ foothills, the ski slope operators were In 
good moods Saturday night after their first ~ng day· of 
the season. 

Grady Moretz at Appalachian Ski Mountain in 
Blowing Rock said Saturday night there were 200 ~ 
pie .swooping over ~ 18-to-24-inch base on his slopes 
dunng the day, and Just as dark was falling the snow-
making machines were being cranked up for their 
fourth straight night of operation. The same thing was 
going on at the Banner Elk slopes where Bob Ashe of 
Beech Mountain said "several hundred people" had 
turned out for the first day of the season. 

"lt'e looking pretty good," Ashe said. "The condi-
tions are very nice. We've got quite a bit of base down. 
There's been excellent snow-making weather for-- the 
last few days." 

Moretz gushed just as much. "It's been busy. We 
«ot open today," he,said. "Once in 18 years we've 
opened on Thanltsgivilfg and once on the Saturday after 
·Thanksgiving. This makes the second time for the flrst 
of December." 

If the weather holds the. way the weather service 
predicts it wiB, the ski slopes might have a little bit of 
)!;dural powder by the end of the weekend and unless 
there's another warming trend, the slope officials think 
lhey can make snow nearly every night this week. 

That, however, means only that it is cold, not that a 
winter of snow is coming in off the Plains and besides 
there are no snow-making machines in the 'wrute Christ: 
m~ b~ess. The best thing for people who want a 
White Christmas would be to move, either to the moun-
tains where the snow can be manufactured or to New 
England of Montana where there's seldom the need to 
manufacture snow. 

The last time snow or ice pellets fell on Christmas 
Day was in 1975, but lt amounted to only a trace. Last 
year, there was a trace of ice pellets recorded Chrisbnas . 
Eve, but it was gone before dark. 

There is just not much snow in North Carolina's 
Decembers. c:5f the five times there'• been Christmas 
Day snow, two snowfalls were so slight they could not 
be measured. There were almost three inches of snow 
on the ground on Dec. 25, 1947; a bit less than an inch, 
rae. 2!), 1962; ji!Jt f.tad more than an inch In 1sa

Witness: Somers Growth Is Pro lem For U.S. Farmers erma 
bomback 

Suspected Taping 
J Fro~ C·tj. 

Johnson said Saturday, however, that Somers told 
him he suspected he was being taped wben Wilhelm 
came to the office. Johnson said Somers told him Wil-
helm got a lecture on "good citizenshlp." 

When Somers approached him about representing 
Mo~ershead, Johnson said, "I said I didn't know if I 
would take the case, but if I did I would look after my 
client even if I had to hurt Somers." 

His conversation with Somers took place about a 
week after Somers had been indicted, Johnson said. Af­
ter hearing Mothershead's account of the shooting and 
the events leading up to it, Johnson said, he declined to 
represent Mothershead. 

Another rebuttal witness for the prosecu~on, SBI 
agent William C. Lane m, admitted during cross-exami-
nation Saturday that Mothershead was heard to say fn a 
taped conversation with Wilhelm- that Somers had 
"nothing to do" with the plot against Hankins. 

That tape was admitted into evid~e earlier in the 
week after the defense learned of its existence and 
asked Judge George M. Fountain to order prosecution 
attorneys to produce it. 

Wilhelm· has testified that Mothershead never told 
him of Somers' mvolvement. 

Somers testified earlier in the trial that Mothers-
head admitted to him that he was involved in the shoot-
ing but that Mothershead would not .tell him about his 
motive in the plot. 

The defense ended its case Saturday by putting up a 
parade of character witnesses for Somers. They includ-
ed fonner Republican Congressman Earl Ruth of Salis, 
bury. 

BY BILL HUMPHRIES 
NC~U Atrlcl#f~ral lllformltlon Servlc•s 

RALEIGH -In the years ahead, will u.s. farmers 
be able to increase their production to keep pace with 
the growing needs of an expanding population? 

The answer depends on a nwnber of factors, say 
scientists in the School of Agriculture and Life Sciences 
at North Carolina State University. · 

Although additional land can be brought into farm-
ing, there are limits to the extent to which this can be 
done, the scientists say. Generally, the most productive 
lands already are being used for agriculture. 

Weather is an ever-present factor in farm produc-
tion, of course. It can affect everything from the surviv-
al rate of baby pigs and the amount of milk produced 
per cow to per-acre yields of field crops and the quality 
of peaches harvested. 

Adapting crops to weather is being studied. Also, 
in the long run it's likely that wea1her mOdification has 
considerable potential for increased productivity in agri-
culture. 

Farmers must be able to control insects, diseases 
and other pests for efficient production of crops and 
livestock. Adequate supplies of pest control materials, 
along with the knowledge required for their proper use 
will be essential. ·- ' 

Fann production accounts for only about 3 ~cent 
of the nation's total energy needs - but it is a vital 3 
percent. Unless priorities are established so that farm­
ers are assured of energy they need when they need it, 
shortages of food, fiber and other conunodities could 
develop at times. 

To an increasing extent, capital ls an essential tool 
'in modem agricult~ vroduction. Nationwide, the cap-

' ita! could seriously cripple farm production. 

Housing Project Rent Refunds Due 
More than 12,000 families who lived in certain fed-

erally subsidized housing projects in North Carolina 
'may be eligible for refunds of up to $500 for illegal rent 
increases they ~aid four years ago, according to Denny 
Ray, executive.director of Legal Services of North Caro-
Ufta. 

The rent refunds are part of a $60 million nation-
,wide consumer class action settlement between the. U.S. 
Department of Housing and Urban Development and 
Legal SerVices lawyers who filed lawsuits in 1975 ori be-
half of an estimated 500,000 tenants in 5,000 affected 
housing projects. 

Ray said 76 of the 5,000 so-called Section 236 hous-
ing projects are located in North Carolina; 12 are locat-
ed in the northern Piedmont .region. 

A spokesman for Central Carolina Legal Services 
Jnc.; which will help eligible tenants process refund 
.claims, said persons ·who lived in the affected housing 
projects between Feb. 1; 1975, and Sept. 30, 1977; must 
_file elaims before next Jan. 3L 

_The Section 236 program was created by ttie 1968 
;Housing Act to provide apartments for families who 

earned too much to qualify for ·public housing but too 
little to be able to afford housing in the private market. 
The projects were able to charge low rents because 
HUD subsidized their mortgages. 

The lawsuits were filed in U:.S: Djstrict' Court in 
Washington after HUD refused to obey the law and pay 
for increased utility costs in the housing projects. -since 
the agency would not pay the bills, the project owners 
and managers increased rents to cover them. 

In 1977, while the la~suits were pending, Congress 
passed a second law, mandating HUD to make the pay-
ments from a special reserve fund_ 

In Greensboro, residents of Pineland Place, Glen-
side Drive and Tpnity Garden. housing units during the 
covered 32-month period may be eligible for the re-
funds. Other affected housing units in the region are; 
Randolph County, Breeze Hill and Coleridge Road; 
Davidson County, Club Apartments; Rockingham Coun-
ty, St. Paul Ltd. Methodist and Garden of Eden; Rowan 
County, Clancy Hills. .

etter educated, better trained, better in-

were the farmers of a generation ago. 

The IIID5l important factor contributing to long-
tenn g in farm productivity, according to U.S. De-
partmen Agriculture economists, will be technology. 

nology does not advance, tbe limit to prod-
wth will eventually be reached,'' say two 
omists in a recently published study. They 
· Lu and Leroy Quance. 

Whether or not limits to agricultural productivity 
growth extat, say the authors of the study, depends on 
whether llf.icultural scientists can continue to produce 
new tecJtntlogies that fanners-will adopt. 

The gmwth rate in U.S. farm productivity over the 
paat 50 yeas has averaged 1.5 percent a year, the USDA 
economista say. From 1939 to 1960 - a period of ex-
ploding fll!llf technology - productivity increased at a 
rate of 2 l*cent annually, but from 1960 to 1970 it fell 
back to O.t percent a year. 

Does *s mean ,that fanners are approaching the 
limits in' ~P yields' per acre and production of milk, 
eggs and • at per pound of fee4? 

Then'!! II no firm consensus qn the answer to this 
question. scienti.~ts at. North Carolina State 
say, two points are very clear:

promising are photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation and ge-

could lead to breakthroughs that would boost farm 
productivity at unprecedented rates.

V.aried Interests Keep Daniele 's Quest For Knowledge Alive 

.

valuable resource than the hi,ghly talen people in our col· 
leges ~d high schools." 

For Danieley, promoting education is more than a full-time 
job. After classes are done he usually has a couple of speeches 
lined up. Then there's church work where he combines rengion 
and education. He also sits on the board of trustees at East Car­
olina University, is a member of a bank board and hospital 
board in Burlington and holds a place oq the Republican execu-
.tive committee in Alamance County. 

"I've never really felt overworked," Danieley explains. "If 
I do feel tired I'll go into the garden and work. That refreshes 
and renews me and it's how I relax." · 

'fhe garden L! about the size of "the western half of Alam· 
ance County," his wife says. "I don't have a summer vaca~on 
because I'm so busy freezing and canning the things he grows. 
He even taught me to cook." 

Aha, there's the one weak link in Danleley's otherwise shin-
·ing armor - he makes a mess in the kitchen. 

"He opens up 'all the doors and drawers and makes a mess 
of the pots and pans," Varona says. "We tell him he gets 

Prisons Moving 

To Wood Stoves 

I From l:·ll 
e Pr(son officials say they have no trouble at ,all 

getting free wood from the transportation department. 
Highway crews are constantly clearing rights of way 

a!Jd embankments, usually leaving wood to rot. 
· · e Inmate labor is virtually unlimited. Inmates can 
be used to collect wood and stoke the fires. And, as was 
the case in Alamance, some are capable of welding and 
constructing the stoves. 

In addition, prison officials must be money-con-
scious because the Department of Correction traditional-
ly has had to exist on shoestring budgets. 

The Alamance wood stove project was warmly re-
ceived in Raleigh when Tingen publicly reported its 
money-saving virtues. Correction Secretary Amos Reed 
WJote a letter of commendation to the Alamance staff, 
saying that it was "in the highest traditions of state ser-
vice" and that. he was "much impressed." 

But since then, some prison workers have become 
puzzled that correction officials aren't pursuing wood 
stoves more vigorously. "It's so obvious that it's a good 
thing," said one, "that I'd really be pushing it if I was 

· paying the bills." 
. High~level correction decision-makers, however, 

.. ' keep coming back to the word "custody." 
~ · "Safety is a 'big issue," Kautzby said. "We have to 

. ; do it on a pilot basis and proceed very cautiously. There 
·: are very se,rious questions of going into the contraband 
-.. · problem." 

·.! ~ Kautzby ~plained- that in- moving wood into prisen 
~' yards, prisoners could try to smuggle in weapons, drugs 
• : or other banned materials. Also, sending prisoners into 
, wooded areas to gather logs could pose custody prob-

~ lems, especially if the prisoners are not classified as min-
.. • imum risks. 

Harold Lilly, 'chief of prisons lm the western half of' 
' ; the state, said the wood stove project should remain con-
. · fined to the North Piedmont district until it proves sue-
... cessful. He agreed with Kautzby that using medium- or 
r : maximum-security inmates to handle large amounts of 

. wood could be too risky. He pointed out that they are 

. giving it a try in one medium-security prison unit, Cas-
• • w:ell. · 

Correction officials vehemently deny any suggestion 
• that oil distributors are fighting the wood stove program. 

• Kautzby and Lilly said they have heard no complaints 
' from any oil jobbers and that a reduction in prison oil 
consumption wouldn' t hurt the jobbers, anyway. 

"If they don't sell the oil to us," said Lilly, " they'll 
sell it to somebody else." Kautzby said he couldn't mus-
ter any sympathy for an oil jobber who would discourage 
energy conservation for the sake of profit. 

Tingen said he hasn't heard any flak and doesn't be-
Jjeve any local or state oil interests are interfering with 
the wood stove project. "I haven't heard any gripes 
(from oil dealers)," -said Tingen. 

Large-scale use of wood stoves would mean a sharp 
drop in oil purchases, however, if the estimated oil sav-
ings at the Alamance unit are indicative. The state pris-
on system buys about 150,000 gallons of oil each month. 
At the current price of 80 cents or more per gallon, the 
state's ~ns are pouring at least $120,000 per month 
fnto oil. 

Black Col,eges' 
Needs Stressed 

Special To TIM DillY Newl 

. Need for continued enhancement of predominantly 
•black' colleges and" additional opportunities for students 
of those institutions was stressed at a daylong co~er­
ence Saturd~y on desegregation at A&T State Universi-
ty. 

"We 'Y'!nt to increase the opportWiity of blac~ to 
go to college and to do well, both m college and after 
they leave," said Guilford Rep. Henry E. Frye. "If they 

1get the education they need, then it is unimpOrtant 
:whether that p~cular college is predominantly white 
,n terms of students, or predominantly black, if other 
•things are equal." 

The conference was sponsored by the North Caroli~ -:na Alumni and Friends Coalition, a group representing 
~ithe alumni of the state's five black public universities. 

"Our goal is, I hope, real equality of opportunity," 
'said Frye, "at'&d our primary emphasis is on the stu· 
~-" 

An NMCP Legal Defense Fund official, Jean Fair· 
'fax, told the group there is a real danger that the black 

:.colleges will be enhanced but that the predominantly 
·~hite colleges, will be enhanced at a faster rate. 

"ln that case," she s.aid, "many o( the black col-
·~eges will be settling for improvement, rather than fpt 
~ncement." 

. Sbe said blacks should not be taken in by statistics 
8,1ioWU!g that 60 percent of blacks in college are studying . .at white institutions. "Seventy-eight percent of those 
hlack.s are enrolled in community colleges. This new 
~lack enrollment is in community colleges," she said. 

Dr. Cleon Thompson, a vice president of the Uni-
Nersity of North Carolina system, said the university is 
~mmitted to increasing the educational opportunities 
ior bla<:ks In the state, on both the undergraduate and 
"e graduate levels. 
. He cited as .progress 12 percent minority enroll-
rwnts in the medic~ schools of the University of Nt[th 
CArolina at Chapel l!ill and East Carolina Universlfy .

through with things so fut because he never puts anything 
away. But if he's going to do the cooking, I ~on't mind cleaning 
up." 

Danleley got his green thumb and cooking skills while 
growing up on a farm in northern Alamance County. He says hisj 
views and values are those of a farmer, and they show in allJ 
aspects of his life. 

"His concern for the individual i,s the motivating factor in 
anything he does,' ' says his wife. "He wants people treated fair-
ly, and to have as good a life as possible." 

"The quality of many experiences depends on how good 
you think they are," Danieley says. "Take the peach crop I had 
this year. It was the best ever, but I !mow 1 can d@ ti«!tter.' ' 

_ Peaches are only part of his farm in the city. There are! 
.5()' fruit trees, countless vegetables and 200 rose bushes. 

"The rose is the most elegant of flowers .. It is also a chal· 
lenge to grow," he says, his eyes lighting up with the' mere men· 
tion of an American Beauty. 

"There are illways new variations and something more to 
learn about roses," he continues. "No other flower gives you as 
much for your labor." 

Dnring his lifetime Danieley ha$ reaped much from his own 
labors. , 

He graduated from Elon in 1946 and was .rea<ly to teach

high school when opportunity knocked. He was quick to, answer 
and was offered a job at Elon College, teacl!lng chemistry. 

"The 'college job paid $2,000 for [\ine months," he recalls. 
"That's rjght much more than I was going to get at high school. 
That was a stimulating and exciting time. The men were com· 
ing back from war and the average age was above mine. They 
were highly motivated students." 

Danieley too was motivated and earned hls doctorate while 
studyipg part time and during summers at the University of 
North Carolina. In 1956 he and his wife went to Baltimore 
where he did post-doctoral work at Johns Hopkins University. 

That's wl:len he was called back to Elon ll second time. 
"We had been there about a year when George Colclough 

called lJle," Danieley says. "Colclough said, 'The board has 
elected a new president, you.' I said, 'You're crazy.' 

"When I .told my wife there was a little silence, and then 
she just said 'poor Earl.' It took about two weeks to decide, 
but in the end we f!!lt it 'was a challenge I had been called upon 
to undertake. I knew what the needs of the school were and 
I came back as one who belonged." 

In his 16 yearS at Elon's helm, Danieley made a number of 
changes. The most noticeable are the dozen buildings erected 
during his tenure. He is also given credit for stabilizing enroll· 
ment and finances. There is something about the man, about 
his manner. of speech, methods of argument and the sincerity in 

his voice that made church members and alumni want t.o do-
nate money. 

lte always has handled studenta on a per10nal buts, even 
during the anti-war protests of the Ia~ 1960s . 

"It was a sunny Sunday afternoon and the students must 
have felt they wefe a little derelict to their duty, so they 
marched on my hO~ Thm were about 100 of them. 

" When they got to the front walk the student preSident 
said, it wasn't really a yell, more Uke a stage Whisper, he iBid, 
'Don' t step on tbe grass.' Not one of them did. 

"He handed me a list or f,ievances, we thanked each other 
and they went on their way, ' says the ex-pmident. 

Danieley had replies typed and mlm~hed by 8 the 
next morning and they were passed to the 2,000 students on 
campus. Danieley's positions weren't exactly greeted with en· 
thusiasm, but as he tells it, that was the way it was going to'be. 

In 1973 he resigned for health reasons, citing a barl. 'back 
as the main culprit. Tbe constant travel and pres.sures o{ the 
president' s post are blamed for tbe back ptoblew. 

• He has continued his teaching, though, and says be plan$ to 
teach for the next 10 years, when " if my health permits I'U be 
busy with other ~ besides continued employment.'' 

That should give Hook time to fi1td a replacement.
