A County Legislator Leads
Life Of Roses And Headaches

If you like prestige and don't
mind basket full of headaches
and problems then you might
enjoy being a member of the N.
-. General Assembly.
On the surface the hours and
pay are most attractive. Memb-
ers spend about five hours a
day, three days n week, in COM
HiNee and Assembly sessions. !
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day are the big work days. Fri
day Is the day for mass exodus
while Monday finds legislators
from the 100 counties in N. c.
flowing into the Capital City of
Raleigh to begin their work.
But when you scratch beneath
?" surface you gnd legislators
l,iSily engaged III legislative
cbcrcnccS from the time they
kick off their pajamas in the
morning until late at night.
Many observers nave joked a.
bout the excessive handshakinei
and back patting that is a natur-.
al part OF a politicians ordeal.
NO legislator worth his salt
would dare wrap his fingers a.
round a suitcase and chance.
missing a handshake with an.
important brother Senator or
Representative. Thus, the BELL
boys enjoy a rushing business on
Fridays and Mondays.
All is not roses in the life of
a legislator. He must not only
pay close attention to the needs
of the State when legislative ac-
ton is about TO be taken but he
also must be able to evaluate'
state legislation for the effect
II Right have on his home area
III often is the lifeblood of a
politician. One oversight could
be fatal when election time rolls
around and he seeks another
term.
If voters knew how much au-
thority was vested in legislators
they might pay more attention.
to their privilege of marking al
ballot. So long as il concerns
local legislation something co.
UNI Legislators are trying 10
get for their area only) il isl
generally agreed that any bill
introduced will be passed.
ITS a rare case when a Sem
ator has a local bill defeated and
the same holds true for the Re-
preventative" said one of the
legislators regarding the power
provided such men by the vot-
ers.
Youngsters who now dream of
bs Rs politicians and harbor de-
Sires TO serve in the North Car
olina General Assembly should
start saving their pennies.
The election itself requires
certain amount of money. Those
offering themselves for the cleo
tive posts find that beating the
bushes shaking hands of voters
is not only time consuming but
also rather expensive.
r expense doesn't end with
victory at the polls. Legislators
receive SIS per day plus eight
dollars per day for expenses.
This amount is based on 40
days. IT'S conceivable that the
legislator could get by on this
amount il he did nothing but at
tend meetings and stay in his
room. But few limit themselves
this closely.
The. headaches in general come
fro7D folks back home-the ones
you are serving.
This year the headaches were
abundant in the early stages of
the Assembly. Whiteville was
celebrating an ABC store ref
erendum and the issue was pass
ed from town board TO legisla-
dfs and back to the town board ,
like q hot potato. The legislators [
received many letters on the

yourself from now on. It is
becoming increasingly well
known that headaches are
the price some people pay for
over-average drive and &C.
complishment.
Whether it's histamine
headache. tension headache
or migraine. 1t seems that the
tense, ambitious and perfec-
tionistic are the usual VIC
tins.
II you haven't had head
aches. according TO some In.
vestigators. you are probably
phlegmatic and dull. Be-
sides, 1t is said that few pa.
tients In mental hospitals
complain Of headaches.
Personally, I don't think
the choice is yours or mine.
We are what we are-and
pay the price," said q head
ache patient the other day.
! suppose that Is true; but
only to some extent. I have
seen many drivers and
stress-ridden individuals"
who learned to accept q new
philosophy Of relaxation and
freedom from infiexibility--
and lost their headaches
without the help Of pain
killing and tension-reducing
drugs.
WHAT'S MEANT by iatro-
genie disease? Many pa.
tientS want TO know. Il
means disease caused by
doctors"
For example. q doctor may
mention Q harmless murmur
and for the rest Of his life
the patient worries about
heart disease. Or, the doctor
may raise his eyebrows and
say ''hmmm" while taking a
blood pressure reading and
the patient thinks his pres
sure must be going through
the roof"
I suggest to many doctors,
especially those beginning
practice, to be tactful in their
actions and remarks. There's
enough anxiety around with
out causing more.

by the time I get home
I've forgotten what my doc
tor has told me. :" I'm
too nervous when I'm in the
doctors ONCE to remember
what he said. -" II hate to
bother him on the telephone,
but I've simply got to know
Just how to take my medi-
cine"
THOUSANDS Of patients
who see their doctor today
will be saying something
similar when they get home
tonight. Sometimes forget
ting Is only . bother" at
other times 1t may be serious.
After Q medical meeting
the other night q doctor in
our group said: II can't UNI
derstand 1t. You sit down
with . patient and give him
careful directions. You ex-
plain his illness Is fully a.
you know how.
you tell him about his
diet and how to take his
medicine. Yet, he calls you
UP the next day and asks
you about the same things.
You'd think he never heard
about it at ALL"
I said that most patients
are frightened people when
they confront the doctor.
And an anxious person
dosen't make o good listener.
He IL more interested in what
Is on his mind-and what he
wants to tell the doctor
than listening to what the
doctor has TO say.
I have realized this for
years. I have tried to
overcome 1t by reinforcing
"worded" directions with
written directions. When the
patient forgets he can refer
to the direction slip.
Some patients like TO take
notes. That is good-but
there Is o possible source Of
misunderstanding and error.
Therefore. I believe that
the doctor should take q few
extra minutes latter he has
written his prescriptions) to
make notes for hts patient on
q separate sheet Of paper.
Patients are thankful when
doctors use the written word
to back up their oral direc-
tons.

REPORTER
Death Races Driver of the Year

The truck barreled east on,
66. Behind the cab. the big
tank Of gasoline swayed like
Q fat hula dancer. The driver
was q happy man. In three
days he would leave for
Washington. d. c. There.
Vice President Richard Nixon
would give him q gold medal
as the Nations Driver Of the
Year.
His name was Carl Grim.
He was 43. He was short and
bald and patient. Mr.. Grim
owned his home in Okmulgee,
Okla. He owned this 5-ton
truck, too. He was In love
with Stefiie, his wife. He had
two good daughters. and one
was about to make him q
grandpa for the first time.
A HAPPY MAN. The truck
was 2 miles west Of Bristow.
Okla. It was an International
with q Cummings engine. It
purred at him. Mr.. Grim
would deliver the 5000 gal
Ions Of highest gasoline and
drive back home. He had to
clean up and be ready for
that trip to Washington. The
Driver of the Year.
He hit the rise, went over
the top and the fields sped by.
Then Carl Grim frowned. He
saw q car coming toward him.
It was almost a mile away.
The car straddled the white
line.
There wouldn't be enough
room for the truck on the
right side. Grim knew. His
three right wheels would be
forced OF the shoulder. Well,
there were no other cars on
the road. Lots Of room. Be-
tween the Grim truck and
the oncoming car there was
nothing but a diner. q quar-
ter Of a mile ahead, and a
halfmoon parking lot on the
right side.
The truckdriver knew from
experience the driver Of that
other car would be on his
own side Of the road long

before they approached,
Grim had averaged $4,000
miles q year for ~ years.
It comes to 2 million miles.
He never had an accident
with his truck or with his
car. He was always ready
TO give the other man the
right Of way. Like now. But
there was no room.
The truck barreled on. The
other car raced toward 1t.
Carl Grim reached overhead
for the air-blast horn. He
gave a long mournful wall.
The car kept coming.
There was no place 70 60.
In the ditch? The tank Of
gasoline would pile on top
Of the cab. It was too late
to pull to q stop. The other
Car would hit him anyway.
The air horn blasted again.
Nothing happened. At the
last moment, he saw that he
was q little bit closer to the
parking area than the other
car. If only he could make
that parking section on the
right side. II only there was
room to swing in and stop
without wrecking everything.
HE HIT THE air blast
again and again and again.
The other car was still strad-
ding the white line. Carl
Grim whispered: God, please
get me out Of this"
He swung into the parking
area as the other car went
by in a snap Of wind. Grim
brought his truck to q snort
ing, gasping stop. He leaned
out and looked. The other
car was back on its own side
Of the road.
In Washington the Vice
President shook hands with
the man the American
Trucking Co. calls the safest
Of them all. The gold pin
had O diamond in 1t.
you must be very proud"

fortunate in having Tim keep
an eye on Marcia. We trust
her, but we think with the
way kids are today 1t doesn't
hurt to have o big brother
around looking out for q girl.
Tim says that kiss was the
lingering kind. Marcia is too
young for that kind Of thing.
It is true that Tim is some
times too critical and he likes
to tease. We try to get him
to stop teasing. Sometimes he
overdoes 1t. Marcia gets very
upset when he criticizes her.
But it doesn't hurt for her
to know the way boys her
age see her.
Tim has O lot Of love and
loyalty for his sister. She
should consider herself q
lucky girl to have him.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
We're with Marcia. A IT.
year-old brother is not a suit
able chaperone or adviser for
q 16-year-old girl. He may
have love and loyalty and
may mean well, but he is not
the best person to be the
overseer Of her conduct.
In the case Of the kiss, for
example, we think it more
than likely that 1t was staged
for Tins special benefit-as
a matter of spite and teasing.
II Marcia were really inter-
ested in that kiss she would
not give o public showing.
Certainly it was very i'm
proper conduct-but' 50 was
Tins public blow-up.
The L. AS must teach
their daughter to be guardian
Of her own conduct and rep
utation. It is unfair to at
tempt to saddle her with q
chaperone.
Marcia should stop making
q spectacle Of herself just to
annoy her brother.

Reaching for the moon
used to be pure poetic exag-
seration. until September II
when the Russians scored q
lunar bull's-eye with their
rocket. In view Of the flag
and other paraphernalia Of

mnay people suspected that
Moscow was about ready to
literally reach for q claim to
the moon.
But o vice president Of the
Soviet Academy Of Science
later said that the successful
Soviet rocket shot did not en-
tail any territorial claim.
Though treasured, most other
nations quickly asserted that
the almost attainable moon
should belong to the United
Nations. Non - Communist

This accords with the posi-

that some form Of interna-
