Judge halts City Council elections
last week when city officials
agreed die city should have
submitted election changes
made four years ago to the
U.S. Justice Department for
approval.
A panel of three federal
judges will be convened to see
if a permanent injunction
should be levied. The judges,
according to the order, would
determine if the election
changes made by the city are
subject to the Voting Rights
Act which requires submission
and approval of certain changes
before enforcement.
Once convened, the three
judge panel has a narrow scope
of inquiry, the order said. The
only issue for the court’s
decision is whether “a
Day designed to show students Paine cares

educational institutions
sometimes feel like "a
number.” They complain that

particular state enactment is
subject to the provisions of the
act.”
The act states that a covered
jurisdiction that wishes to
enact any “standard practice or
procedure with respect to
voting different from that in
force or effect on November 1,
1964” must seek preclearance
from the Attorney General or
the United States District
Court for the District of
Columbia.”
However determination of
whether the changes have the
effect of impairing the voting
rights or discrimination against
black voters will be left to the
Justice Department.
City Attorney Sam McGuire
said the city will go ahead and
such schools are impersonal
and uncaring.
To keep such problems from
its campus, Paine College is
submit changes to the Justice
Department for preclearance.
“But the thrust of our
contention is that we simply
do not agree with the
interpretation.”
McGuire said the city will
appeal an adverse ruling.
Bowen’s injunction against
the city resulted from suits
filed recently by lawyers John
H. Ruffin Jr. and Robert W.
Cullen on behalf of R-E.
Donaldson, Rances L. Lewis
and. the Rev. C.S. Hamilton,
and Roy V. Harris on behalf of
councilman B. L. Dent.
Dent’s suit was incorporated
into the one filed by Ruffin
and Cullen.
Dent filed suit against the
city for changing the method
having its third annual “I Care
For You Day.” Tuesday, Sept.
30, students will join faculty
and staff in a day of unusual
classes.
Special classes call for
special teachers. So, none of
the faculty will teach. Instead,
administrators and staff will
lead the sessions.
“1 Care For You Day” will
begin in the chapel at 8 a.m.
with a statement of purpose by
Dr. Julius Scott, President of
Paine College. A film, “Stress:
A Disease of our Times,” will
follow the president’s
statement.
From 8:30 a.m. until noon,
the entire campus will rotate
between four classes. The
subjects taught will be:
listening; developing self
awareness; improving family
relations; and problem solving.
Informal exchange will
continue as students, faculty
and staff enjoy a free lunch in
the college cafeteria at 12:30
p.m.
Recreational activities will
follow lunch. Games such as
backgammon and checkers will
be played in the campus
center. More adventuresome
Paineites can join outdoor
activities like the sack races or
volleyball.

of electing councilman from
plurality to majority vote
before Justice Department
approval was sought.
Dent is in a sense suing
himself since he is a member of
the city council.
The other suit seeks to oust
Mayor Lewis A. Newman and
city councilmen Henry A.
Wright, B.L. Dent and William
Calhoun who are serving the
third of three consecutive
terms in office.
Third year terms for council
members was also an election
change made in 1976 not
submitted to the Justice
Department for approval.
Bowen’s injunction gives
temporary relief based on facts
at a pre-trial hearing.
What parents should know
* Ww v
I am often puzzled by the
general appearance and attire
of students as I drive to school
each morning. Many boys and
girls go to school
empty-handed and dressed like
they are going to a picnic. It
seems carrying books to school
and bringing home materials to
study has become a thing of
the past. If the above scene
sounds familiar, there are some
things that you as parents can
do.
Many teachers differ in
philosophy regarding
homework and the frequency
and amount given varies from
school to school and teacher to
teacher. Some teachers feel
that children work hard in
school all day and should not
be required to work more at
home. Others give homework
matter of factly and sometimes
it has little resemblence to the
work done in school.
Homework should be given
as an extension or
reinforcement of work done in
school. Many school subjects
need constant practice in order
for students to reach
perfection. Reading, spelling
and math are subjects that can
be successfully improved and
tutored at home.
If your child comes home
consistently without
homework, you can make up
your own. I am not suggesting
that you take over the job of

Homework
Reinforcement
By Adrienne Perry
your children’s teachers. On
the other hand, there is much
you can do to reinforce their
teaching.
Some examples of things
that can be done in spelling
follow. Take a look at the
student’s notebook. Words that
are used often make good
spelling lists. Have the student
use the words in original
sentences. This is the first step
in getting the word into the
writer’s written vocabulary.
Mix up letters and have the
student unscramble them.
Make up sentences, leave out
the spelling word and have
students fill in the missing
word or sound.
Students who have difficulty
spelling need continuous
repetition. Words like beetle,
needle, nation, station with
similiar sounds should be
studied together.
Commercial games like
Junior Scrabble, Scrabble, and
Spill and Spell are excellent
sources for spelling practice
also. Discuss commercial
spellings like E-Z, donuts, Sac
N’ Save. Encourage the student
to do as much writing as
possible. Writing letters,
grocery lists, etc. Give needed
spelling practice in a realistic
setting.
Spelling is a skill that can be
improved with practice and can
provide hours of fun at the
same time. Have fun spelling!
The season kicks off Nov. 1,
2, with the drama “Ceremonies
In Dark Old Men”, a play
about a black family trying to
fight its way out of the ghetto.
The play was written by Lonne
Elder 111. J.C. Taylor, drama
director of Paine College, will
be the director.
The play “To Remind
America of Our Past, Present,
and Future - A Salute to Dr.
Martin Luther King” written
by Ellen Adams, has been
revised and partially retitled,
“To Remind America of Our
Past, Present and Future - A
Documentary on Black Life in
American” by Tyrone J.
Butler. The production consist
of drama, music and a modem
dance choreographed by Mary
Ann Crawford.
The play “The Mighty
Gents”, a dramatic
presentation about youths who
grew up in a street gang and
figured the only way to
succeed was through gang
activities to get a big score, will
be held April 1,2, 1981. The
play will be very informative to
parents who have children who
constantly are having run ins
with the law. The play shows
why the youths are a member
of a gang, and how their
environment played a major
role in the idea of being a part
of the gang.
All productions are
scheduled at Tubman Junior
High School 1740 Walton Way.
The Saturday performances
will be at 8:15 p.m. and
Sunday 7:30 p.m.
Season tickets are available
at the Augusta Mini Theatre
1061 Milledgeville Road or call
