The pair then took her money, 49 cents. The two boys then fled the scene.

Also, two young girls told officers Monday afternoon a man in an automobile had exposed himself to them while they were walking home to lunch from Ferndale Junior High Seiiool. The Gatewood Avenue residents told police that the man was approximately 38 years of age'and with reddish brown hair and long sideburns. A 13-year-old girl a Centennial Street resident told police Monday afternoon of an attack on her person while she was home from school because of illness. She told police that a male, approximately II years old, had entered her home, and that she went into the bathroom and locked the door. The youth then reportedly forced open the door and "rubbed against her." He later left the home.

Police Monday investigated an attempted break-in at Wright's clothing store which occurred some time over the past weekend. Officers said that entry into the Wright Building on N.

ON THE SCENE Family Life The work of the High Point Human Relations Commission will be outlined Thursday during a meeting of the Family Life Council of Greater High Point.

Reagan H. Weaver, director of the Human Relations Commission, will be guest ft Commission Seeks Share Of Federal Funds By GARNET BASS Enterprise Staff Writer The High Point Parks and Recreation Commission has made its second move toward obtaining federal funds which will be available Jan. 1 through the Community Development program. The commission authorized the department staff Monday to work with the com- mission's planning and development committee to formulate an extensive list of needs and priorities. To be eligible for the funds, the commission (and city) must provide a comprehensive plan for development over a minimum one-year period.

That plan must be followed by two-to three-year plans. CHILDREN (FROM PAGE 1C) almost every rhyme he makes ends with toes. Epperson predicts that Bamboo, only seven and- the youngest player, will steal the show. Still she praises the others. During one rehearsal, she said, the King successfully portrayed a multitude of emotions when he confronted Death.

And Black Circle is evil personified when he casts his spell, she said. Diction presented a problem at the. start, Epperson said, but it's "been a real success." Although the cast is not attempting Chinese accents, she said, "again" just didn't take the place of "again." The children have recently begun rehearsing with some props and settings and without their scripts. Between scenes, they gather around the director like a troup of professionals for comments, criticisms and suggestions. "They're not shy at all," Epperson said.

"I try'to get them to offer helpful suggestions about their own parts, but that's difficult because a child has no sense of self-criticism." Epperson has performed in and directed numerous plays, going to parks and recreation from a staff position at High Point College. But this is her first time working with children. She said she loves it. "I've found that if you treat children as children, you won't get anything out of them. If you think of them as people with handicaps, such as a short attention span, you'll get anything out of them." Director Marvin Keith said goals should be outlined, such as whether the commission wants one tennis court per 1,000 or 500 population, to provide a standard for measuring need.

The city has recently cpm- pleted a City Condition Statement, the first step in obtaining the funds. The statement describes the various city departments facilities, programs and their uses in detail. The commission also accepted for presentation to City Council a committee recommendation that $20 coupons be sold for sailboat launching at Oak Hollow Lake. For each launching, the regular fee of $2 weekdays and $3 weekends would be deducted from the coupons. The coupons, a form of prepayment, however, would not be required.

Launching fees could be paid with each visit. At a previous meeting, the commission voted to establish the north ramp across the lake from the marine office for sailboat launcing. Keith said an intercom system could be installed to allow regulation from the office. In other business: Keith reported that four holes, two through five at 'Oak Hollow golf course have cart paths paved. The commission voted to request paving of Elder Road near Allen Jay School and James Road by Oakview Park and School.

Staff metaber Bo Morgan reported yet he has been unable', to obtain petition signatures from more than 50 per cent of the landowners along the streets, a requirement for most paving. Keith reported on progress with the children's theater production, "The Imperial Nightingale." Free Transportation Slated For County's Poor Elderly By JIM HAWKINS Enterprise Staff Writer GREENSBORO A new service providing free transportation service to the county's elderly poor will begin early in 1975. The Guilford County Board of Commissioners Monday approved the program, which will be operated through the Department of Health. Three vehicles will be purchased and the three drivers and a dispatcher will be located at the health department's offices. Commissioners accepted the plan to use government- owned vehicles after hearing a number of residents stress that many of the elderly need assistance in their trips about the county and other places.

Earlier, commissioners had urged use of taxicabs for in-county trips as a means of providing more trips over more hours each day. However, they did not entirely give up the concept of use of taxicabs. Noting it is doubtful the three vehicles can meet the demand for service, Commission F. P. Bodenheimer suggested use of taxicabs for elderly persons who don't need assistance.

Marshall Abee, executive director of the Community Health Services Agency and spokesman for those seeking to establish the service, conceded the $35,701 budget could possibly include some funds for taxi services after County Attorney William Trevorrow said a careful study of federal regulations showed a combination is allowable if the county can contract the services. Supporting the need for escorts to assist those using the new transportation service, Pat Turnipseed of the High Point YWCA said the elderly need transportation in going 1 Concern for Details 1 Individual Needs We handle arrangements with the utmost care, giving full respect to the personal requests. HAIZLIP FUNERAL HOME, INC. 206 Fourth Siren High Point. 108 Chiirrh Slrrcl Thominvillr "J4 to the doctor, the bank, the food stamp offices and to the grocery store.

Others said escorts are needed to protect the elderly from overpayment for purchases and to get in and out of the minibuses which will be used and to handle minor emergencies. They stressed the taxi service would not provide the help needed. In other activities, commissioners authorized County Manager John Witherspoon to place 57 persons as temporary county employes at salaries of $2 per hour after learning that Internal Revenue Service personnel will not allow those assigned to the CHORE program to operate as individual private contractors. Witherspoon explained the 57 are engaged in a program which provides attendant care such as cooking and cleaning for some elderly persons under a program funded 75 per cent by the federal government. State officials initially directed these persons to become individual contractors, but the IRS designated them to be employes, so the county must deduct withholding and social security payments.

Commissioners adopted a secondary roads program for Guilford County for 1975. The program calls for improve-. ment of about 12 miles of roads at a cost of $609,900. Eleven roads will be involved in the program, which requires that property owners provide needed rights-of- way. They also approved a $12,970 contract with Thompson- Arthur Paving Co.

for paving of a lot near the new jail here for use by jury members. Completion of the lot will mean jury members will no longer have to walk from beyond the social service department, a distance from the courthouse. Commissioners agreed to ask the North Carolina Court of Appeals to continue holding court at Greensboro, a plan which allows cases originating in western North Carolina to be heard in Greensboro, thus reducing travel distance. Commission Chairman Robert Shaw appointed Commission Dale Montgomery of High Point to a full term as a member of the Guilford County Board of Health, Montgomery'will go off the Board of Commissioners Dec. 2 after having served 12 years.

Shaw also announced appointment of Lee Andrews to the Guilford Technical Institute board of trustees. He also named three to the Guilford County Planning Board Roy L. Daniel, Arthur E. Honeycutt and Robert F. Fomberc.

COUNCIL (FROM PAGE 1C) plaining customers. Culler's committee presumably will look into that part of the operation. He has stated also that the committee will ask for a demonstration of checking a meter for accuracy. One reason for the complaints, councilmen acknowledge, is the fact that the electrical rates have been going up steadily, a jump of about 50 per cent in two years.

The water- sewer rates also have been adjusted recently, resulting in higher "water and light" bills for nearly all of the city's approximately 21,000 customers. MAN ACCUSED (FROM PAGE 1C) tives, accompanied by Randolph County deputies, went to the apartment, where Parker was arrested. Mrs. Gray said this was the first time she had received a threatening telephone call. "I have received some threatening letters, but not such a telephone call until this," she said.

FEDERAL (FROM PAGE 1C) criminate against black neighborhoods in making revenue sharing funds available for city improvements. He admitted that some had been spent for the fire station project but that the Salem Street property was paid in part by reserve genera! revenue sharing funds. Most of the funds have been tied up in funding the sewer system, he said, and the rest is earning interest in the bank. Councilman Dalton Myers agreed with Mrs. Renwick to the extent that money should be spent by the city as long as the federal government is making it available, "Forty- eight per cent of the cities are not spending their revenue sharing money," he said, "and that's why Congress is thinking of discontinuing it." Myers said officials of the federal government cited the figures at a recent statewide meeting of city councilmen and city officials held in Aihevllle.

The cities that are receiving the money and it are profiting, he said. Johnson and Mrs. Robert Powell said many new improvements can be started once the Community Development Commission gets under way. The program will be funded from money allocated in the recently enacted federal Community Development Act. "It will be a program of total improvement," Mrs.

Powell said, indicating that citizens of low and moderate' incomes would be substantial beneficiaries.
