GREENSBORO DAILY NEWS SUNDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1979 City tate Obituaries Religion City & State News Section c 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 . .. ..

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) Ward Elections.

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.

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.

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: t (See Prisons: C-71 Col. 1) C 2 Greensboro Daity News, Sun., Doc. 2, 1979 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- ce~;s join primarily for social reasons, but it pursues other activities at times.

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, ; A Beltone Hearing Test: r------~---------------- You Get A Lot for No Money I I I I I I I I I I I 1 I ' I I 1 I I I Direct from our ¥f.OVes.

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 its payload, Ahrens said. About $6,000 already has been con uted by two out-of-state companies, he said. · Another meeting for those in'terested in entering either test will .be held at 7 p.m. Thursllay in the auditorium of A Barnes Hfill· Reynolds Scholarship Gets Gra t The Z.

"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.

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.

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.

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.

' C6 Greensboro Daily News, Sun., Dec. 2, 1979 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.

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.

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 Ea~y American Cedar Chests Your choice of 2 popular designs priced from ..•.

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. ~'UU! DELIVERY! EASY CREDIT TERMS AVAILABLE Smart Transitional lecli.ner erican Table Choice $44 EA.
