FROM * the - PILL BOX k Father David C. Street t , AUGUSTA AREA PLANNED *' ? V ■ PARENTHOOD ASSOCIATION The Executive Director’s report for July by Raphael B. Levine, Ph.D., to the Metropolitan Atlanta Council for Health (MAC Health) is worth repeating here: “In a recent editorial in Science magazine, Philip Abelson commented on the fact that the public expects miracles of medicine and science. ‘Today medical scientists and physicians are particularly subject to pressures produced by unrealistic demands from the public. Failure to produce miracles is taken as proof of a refusal to be interested in meeting the public’s desires... Physicians find that many patients have unrealistic ideas of what doctors can do for them. Many people seem to think that they can carelessly expend physical resources in any way they wish and that the doctor can always cure them. Patients give no cooperation in the matter of exercise, diet, or abstinence from heavy smoking, and yet expect the doctor to make up for their neglect. They want a drug to substitute for self-control and their own efforts. That kind of miracle is not yet available, nor is it likely to be... Scientists, engineers, and physicians... can foster an improved climate... by persistently reminding the mass media and the public of the many limitations of science, technology, and medicine. We are neither witch doctors nor magicians.’ “This editorial struck a chord with me, since comprehensive health planning is expected, by some, to solve all our problems. Yet the best planners, the most knowledgeable committees, the most dedicated Council can only do as much as the rest of the public is willing to help in. This in no way relieves us of our responsibility for opening up new avenues toward achieving the community’s health objectives. But it does mean that we, too, must communicate in terms that are meaningful to everyone in the community. We must not promise more than we can deliver, but we should never permit the impression that health planning is less important or promising than it really is. We should not put up with unrealistic expectations and demands, but we should never say that a goal or objective is less realistic than it actually is. In short, we must walk the tightrope that reasonable men are walking in every portion of our national activities, and continue working the best way we are capable of, and spare no efforts to stimulate the rest of the community to join in, as partners for health.” “The mobile family planning and well baby clinic sponsored by Planned Parenthood and the Health Department will be at (see below) from (see below) today.” Oct. 20 9:00-4:30 Southside Terrace, 2051 Bolt Dr. Oct. 21 9:00-4:30 Sunset Homes, 1698 Linden St. Oct. 26 2:00-8:00 Christ Episcopal Church, 1904 Greene St. Oct. 27 9:00-4:30 Martinez United Methodist Church, 3614 Wash.

Former Supreme Seeks $8.7 Million ®± 9 ' Will former member of the Supremes Florence Ballard Chapman’s suit to the tune of $8.7 million to “rock” Motown be a HIT or a MISS? That question may be answered by Wayne Circuit Court Judge Benjamin D. Burdick this month when he will decide whether or not to dismiss an $8,700,000 Mrs. Chapman who charged that she was fired from the famed Supremes trio because of a conspiracy among her partners and managers. Last week Judge Burdick heard arguments calling for a dismissal of the case by the attorneys for Detroit’s Motown Record Corp., International Management Corp., two original members of the Supremes and two singers who later joined the group. They are being sued by Mrs. Chapman, who contends that early in 1967 there was a conspiracy to eject her from the singing trio. In 1960, Mrs. Chapman (then Florence Ballard) joined the group. She left the trio in 1968 and now claims that a release she signed with the group should be declared void. For consideration in signing the release, Mrs. Chapman received $160,000 and forfeited all rights to any subsequent incomes the Supremes, .Motown or International Managment would earn. Mrs. Chapman contends that the release was illegal since she was never told of the yearly income made by the Supremes and that Motown officers conspired with other members of the Supremes to oust her. Others named as defendants in the case are Diana Ross, and Mary Wilson, original members of the group; Berry Gordy Jr., president of Motown and International Management, Michael Rothkind, Motown vice-president, and Ralph Miss Louisa Mustin was named to the Board of Advisors. Allen F. Caldwell, Jr., reported on the annual banquet to be held on Thursday, 21 October in the French Room of the Richmond Hotel at 8:00 p.m., with Alan F. Guttmacher, M.D., president of Planned Parenthood/World Population as speaker of the evening. Mrs. C. Thomas Huggins will serve as chairman of the reception committee. Father David C. Streett, administrative director, was named ■to attend the annual convention of Planned Parenthood at the Jack Tar Hotel in San Francisco the week of 24 October where he will serve on the Religious Affairs committee.

Cindy Birdson and Jean Terrell are also named as legal. It took eight months to negotiate.” Miss Ballard’s lawyer, Gerald K. Dent, argued that his client has never known how much money the Supremes made as a group and still doesn’t. Dent argued that the release should be declared void because the Supremes made huge amounts of money and the $16,000 Miss Ballard received “is greatly disproportionate to those earnings.” Barris said that if Miss Ballard is unsatisfied with the $160,000 release money she was paid, she should sue the lawyer who negotiated the release with Motown. Dent says another lawsuit has been started against the lawyer, Leonard A. Baunn charging him with not adequately representing Miss Ballard’s interests. THE INNOCENT BLACK BABY by LeJeune H. Ellison A black baby does not know that he is black. He smiles at mama lovingly. And she smiles. But when he cries She knows that while he is young he will cry outwardly for relief of his discomfort. But she also knows that he will cry inwardly many many times in and for his Manhood. But now the inward tears are hers - She lifts him high. forces a strained smile, and comforts him. THANK YOU cl I would like to thank all I I of my many friends who | X supported me in my bid c I for a seat on Gty Council. X * Sincerely, e I Mallory K. Millender a four-year, state-supported arts and sciences college Augusta College’s first graduate degree programs were approved Tues, by the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia. The Master of Business Administration (M.8.A.) and the Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree proposals were given the go-ahead by members of the Board at the October meeting held in Atlanta. The M.B.A. degree program provides for concentrations in Management and in Health Services Administration and will go into effect fall 1972 The M.Ed. degree program will ' have concentration in Elementary Education and Special Education and will begin this summer. Dr. George A. Christenberry, AC president, said approval of both programs enhances significantly the college’s opportunity to be of further service to the Augusta Area community. Various surveys conducted by the college to determine the need for graduate study in the CSRA have consistently indicated a real demand for graduate study -- particularly in the fields of business and teacher education, he said. “Augusta College and the University System of Georgia are responding to a felt need by offering these programs to those residents of the CSRA who have indicated their sincere interest in pursuing graduate work at the college,” he said. Dr. J. Eugene Pierce, chairman of the Business Administration Dept., said the availability of a M.B.A. program of the stature which this one possesses will tend to be an “important drawing card” encouraging the location of new firms in the Augusta area. “Further, as regularly attested by local personnel managers, the availability of such management-science -oriented offerings will greatly improve their opportunity to recruit outstanding technical personnel for management positions.” Dr. Pierce anticipates approximately 100 students to enroll in the program next fall. Education Department Chairman Dr. James M. Dye said that graduate teacher education at AC is intended to increase the knowledge and experience of students who have demonstrated the competence and initiative necessary to continue their education beyond the baccalaureate level. A major objective is to increase the competence of teachers preparing for service in elementary and secondary schools. Dr. Dye noted the advantages of graduate teacher education at AC in view of the Georgia State Board of Education’s 1969 adopted policy which states that The Career Professional Certificate (DT-5) shall be the standard Georgia certificate and shall be issued on the completion of a master’s degree and three years of teaching experience. “Every indication is that all professional educators will be seeking to further advance teacher qualifications in the years ahead with the net result of a significant number of teachers seeking the master’s degree in order to attain the career professional certification.” The chairman said he expects “anywhere from 200 to 300 students” in the graduate program this summer. Mr. Richard L. James, executive vice president of The Chamber of Commerce of Greater Augusta, heralded the news as “fantastic.” “1 feel the business and education communities are really going to be excited about the programs and support them 100 per cent. Young businessmen and teachers will now be able to go ahead and get the master’s degree without having to leave the Augusta area,” he said.

After completion of the fourth year in an accredited hospital approved by Augusta College, the student would receive the B.S. degree in Medical Technology from Augusta College,” he said.
