Minutes of the Meetinq_ (_Continued? March 5.?962
WILMINGTON COLLEGE - ( continued)
"Since 1947 ulilmington College has been maintained, operated and
equipped on funds derived from a 51 local tax 1evy, student tuition fee.s
and,more recently, payments from the State of North Carolina. The College
- has now grown to the point where it appears that these funds must be sup-
plemented.
Our projected growth during the next fiscal year is at least 100 students
In order to maintain our present high standards, this will necessitate?,?of
five additional instructors at an average salary of $5,000.00. 'I'he Southern
Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools is requiring employment of a
full-time librarian with graduate degree at an estimated salary of $5,000.00.
Expansion of our physical education program coupled with increased enrollment
3s necessitating relief for Mr. William Brooks by hiring a full-time Dean
of Students at an estimated salary of $5,000.00. ;;the hiring
It is considered imperative that kre raise faculty salaries to a point
where they are competitive at least with other community colleges in the
state. This involves expenditure of $12,000.00. Instructional supplies,
new laboratory equipment and an increased library book budget all combine to
bring our total need for new funds to approximately $50,040.00 next year.
Under the existing North Carolina law concerning Community Colleges
the State pays the College'$4.00 for each quarter hour credit earned by
students in courses which parallel those offered at our State.University,
There is,however, a yeneral limitation to the effect that the total sum paid
by the State shall not exceed the total sum raised locally.
During the present fiscal year the College will receive approximately
$86,883•76 under the 51 levy voted by the citizens of the County in 1947•
During the same period of time we will have earned approximately $96,81E4.00
in matching State funds. This means that $9,960.24 must go unclaimed.
The Board of Trusteescf WilningLon College, therefore, respectfully
petitions the Board of Commissioners of New Hanover County to cail an elect-
ion, at the time of the May primary, for the purpose of allowing the quali-
fied voters of Nevr Hanover County"to vote for or a.gainst 4n additional levy
of not more than 5e on'each $100.00 of assessed valuation for the operation,
equipment and maintenance of ldilmington College."
He Lhen requested Dr. William N. Randall, President of the college, to make any ex-
planatary remarks that he desired. He reported that it was the aspirations of the
Board, and he felt like the citizens of this County,likewise, wanted Y7ilmington College
developed into a four year educational institution. If this is true it is necessary
that preparations be made to this end. At present under the matching funds policy of
the State the college will lose approximately $9,000 this year because Lhe present tax
structure lacks that amount in providing sufficient funds to equal the State appropria-
tion. During the last quarter, there were 682 students which is the maximum number
that can be accepted without additional funds. Other members of the Board of Trustees
present reported that it had come to the point where Lhey would have to refuse to
accept students unless additional funds were available to pay for instruction. It
requires approximately five professors per hundred students. After discussing the
problem briefly, Ntr. Metts offered a motion that the Resolution be approved and that
the citizens of New Hanover County be allowed to vote in the May primary for an addi-
tional tax up to 51 per hundred valuation for Wilmington College. It was seconded
by Mr. Mayhan and unanimously adopted. .
6UAL NARRATIUE,:REPORT -
Mrs. Rebecca L. Hall, County Negro Home Economics Agent, presented her
annual narrative report with a copyfor each Commissioner. In it she has set forth
their goals, their problems and their accompiishments for the year. She stressed the
overall objective for the year was•to reach the non-club members and provide educational
information placing emphasis on adjustments to changina economic and social conditions.
The Chairman thanked her for a job well done and by common consent, the Board accepted
the report and ordered it filed for future reference.
ROAD IMPROVEMENT
Mr. Ralph W. Roper, representing the Roland-Grise Jr. High School P.T.A.,
explained that since the time Lake Avenue was constructed, new residences had been
built on either side of it and in addition the new Roland-Grise School is located on
it. Because of the additional pedestrian and vehicular traffic which has likewise
increased in volume, the road had become inadequate to safely accomodate the increased
traffic and needs to either be widened or have sidewallcs paved on either side for
the use of school children. It is the connecting link with the State Highway System
from U.S. #76 to N. C. #132..He presented the following petition from the Parent-Teacher
Association of the School:
WHEREAS, Lake Avenue, prior to the construction of Roland-Grise Jr. High
School, was designed, constructed and maintained to accomodate a few residences
and is a connecting link for North Carolina 132 and U. S. 76, a part of the
State Hiohway System; and
? WHEREAS, on the construction of Roland-Grise Jr. High School and construct-
ion of new residences and opening of new residences and openino of new housing
developments in and around Lake Avenue, it being a connecting link with the State
Highway 5ystem as aforesaid, there is pedestrian and vehicular traffic using said
Lake Avenue in volume substantially in excess of the amount of traffic normally
using a street of the character and location of Lake Avenue; and

Minutes of the Neeting
ROAD INPROVEMENT -
March 5, 1962 Continued -
WHEREAS, IT may reasonably be assumed, with further development of the aforesaid
Avenue and area, assignment of additional students to Roland-Grise Jr. High School, that
increased usage by pedestrians and vehicles will be made of the aforesaid portion
I of Lake Avenue and particvlarly in and around Roland-Grise .)r. High School.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Parent Teacher Association of Roland-
Grise Jr. High School:
(1) Thatthis association records itself as recognizing the urgent need for
necessary improvements on Lake Avenue between NC #132 and US #76.
(2) That the Board of Commissioners of New Hanover County is respectully re-
quested to;take such steps as may be necessary to have said highway widened and
improved.
(3) That a copy of this petition be presented to the Board of County Commiss-
ioners at its March 5 meeting and that a report on the action there taken be made
at the next regular meeting of this association.
After considering the Resolution, Mr. Mayhan offered a motion that it be approved by the
Board and referred to the State Highway Commission for study and whatever action was necess -,'-
ary to alleviate the problem. It was seconded by Nr. Broadhurst and unanimously approved.
SCHOOL BOND PROPOSAL -
The Consolidated Board of Education appeared before the Board with their Chair-'?_
man Mr. E. A. Laney, and their Superintendent, Dr. W. H. 4Jagoner as spokesmen. Mr. Laney
stated that he appeared in behalf of the Board for the purpose of giving information but
not to make a formal reqvest for a bond election. It is the intent of the Board to request
the Commissioners to allow the voters of New Hanover County to consider issuing bonds in
the amount of $3,950,000 to be used for school building construction over the next 5 year
period. They now contemplate building two schools for opening in September of 1963, two
to be opened in September 1964 and one to be opened in,September of 1965. Five hundred
thousand dollars ($500,0000 of the issue would be used for improving existing schools.
It is felt that the election could be held at the time of the Spring primary, May 26, 1962
without additional expenses to the taxpayers. Dr, ddagoner reported that the concern of
his staff was about the growth of the student body. He cited that over the past 10'years
it had averaged 420 additional pupils per year or a total of 4200 students over the period.
The policy of this County for new construction has ig nt?he past been based on the pressure
of student load and at present libraries, storerooms, auditoriumshave been pressed into
service to accomodate the ever present overload both in the classrooms and the buildings.
WELFARE QUARTERS -
The Chairman advised that he had employed Architect Herbert P. McKim to prepare l.-
preliminary drawings and specifications as authorized by the Board at their meeting on
December 18th. Mr. McKim reported that after investigation, he found the space now occup-
ied by the Department of Public Welfare totally inadequate for remodeling, in fact, there
was not sufficient space if the corridor was included. He has investigated the space on
the first floor of the Isaac Bear Building. and presented a preliminary drawing which he
believes wili meet the minimum facilities required by the present Public 4Jelfare Depart-
ment and estimates the remodeling can be done for approximately $11,250. He stated that
more elaborate quarters could be provided for an additional $8,000 which would include
lowering of the ceilings and refurbishing the offices with new walis and Iights. After
discussing.the problem briefly, Mr. Metts offered a motion that the Board approve remodel-
ing the Isaac Bear building at a cost not to exceed $11,250 provided the State wovld
agree to supply $6,500 during the current fiscal year and allocate the same amount over
and above the regular Budget next year and participate in operation of the building such
as heat, lights, water and janitorial service. It was seconded by Nr. Braak but before
a ballot was taken, Mr. Mayhan offered a substit,ute motion that the Welfare Department
be left where it is in the downstairs portion of-the Court House. It was seconded by Mr.
Broadhurst and when the ballot was taken on the substitute motion, Messrs. Broadhurst
and Nayhan voted for the substitute motion and Messrs. Sraak, Hall'and Nletts voted against
the motion. The Chairman declared the substitute motion defeated. He then called for a
ballot on the original motion and when the votes were taken, Messrs. Braak and Metts voted
for the motion and Messrs. Broadhurst and Nayhan voted against the motion. The Chairman
then declared his vote for the original motion and ruled it carried. (Chairman Hall and
Commissioner Braak will present the preliminary plans to Mr. R. Eugene Brown, Director
of Public Assistance on Wednesday, Narch 14, 1962.)

ALCOHOLIC REHABILITATION -
.. Nr. Ben J. MacDonald appeared before the Board and stated that he hnderstood
that an organization designated as the New Hanover County Council on Alcoholism had made
requests upon the Board for funds permitted under the General Statutes Chapter 1173,
HB 848 for the purpose of Alcoholic Education and Rehabilitation. He reminded the Board
that on July 5, 1960 he had made a request for consideration and again on July 28th
and that on August 7 a letter was received from the 4lrightsboro Church asking for the
same consideration. He emphasized that anything done to help an alcoholic remain sober
was worthy but that only one who had tread that uncertain path would be able to really
know some of the problems that face him after he has reached the bottom and is trying
to rebuild his shattered life. In having had considerable experience in dealing
with this sort of social problem, he said he had never found one who could read pamphlets
and literature about the evils of intemperate drinking and quit as a result. After one
has determined in himself to refrain and is willing to spend 8 weeks at institutions like
the Good Shepard Home and Hebron to bring himself to sobriety, it was necessary when he
returned to have sympathetic understanding friends. Like as not he had lost confidence
in himself, he was broke, had no job, and many times no home. In order for him to re-
build his self respect and take his place as a contributing member of society, he should
have the assvrance of a hot meal and a place to sleep while he is seeking a constructive
job. He recommended that the ABC Board set up a fund of $1500 to begin with for this
purpose to be administered by a Board who wouid see that it was not squandered but used
effectively. The Chairman explained that the Composite Board did not control this mat-
ter but it was under the jurisdiction of the ABC Board. He understands that it will be
necessary to have the approval of all the agencies participating in the ABC Store profits
before they can set aside the permissive funds for this purpose. The Commissioners,
after briefly considering the request, recommended that the two inLerested groups get
together and present a united front on this question.
THE COUNTY HOME -
Messrs. G. W. Dobo and Lt. Comdr. Gabriel Dobo presented themselves before the
Board in support of a Board oS Directors for the purpose of setting the 4policies at the
County Home. They stated that in their opinion an advisory board would only report the
conditions they found whereas a Board of Directors could direct the management and see
that the orders of the Commissioners were carried out. Mr. Francis C. Roth called atten-
tion to a letter from the Community Council endorsing a Board of Directors for the County
Home. The Chairman presented the followinr recommendations which had been made to him
by interested persons for establishing a Board of Advisors:

It was seconded by Mr. Braak and carried unanimously.

ment and rehabilitation. His stay at the County Home will be temporary. Upon motion of

Mr, Braak reported that last week, the termites swarmed out of the Juvenile
