More motorists are buckling up RALEIGH (AP) North Carolinians appear to be buckling up in greater numbers since a law took effect Oct. 1 mandating restraints, officials say. "These people are voluntarily buckling up," said Capt. Richard Jenkins of the North Carolina Highway Patrol's Raleigh headquarters.

Jenkins said troopers issued 9,190. warning tickets in October, but number has declined from' 3,362 in the first week to 2,440 the second week, then 1,867 and 1,521 in the final week of October. "The first week we had about 60 some percent compliance," Jenkins said. "That was good, really good." Carol Nemitz, director of traffic records for the state Division of Motor Vehicles, said another 676 warning tickets were issued by local law enforcement officers. Don Reinfurt of the Highway Safety Research Center at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill said a September survey indicated about 26 percent of drivers were using seat belts.

He said that was probably more than were buckling up before the law was approved by the General Assembly in April. The law requires that drivers and front-seat passengers wear seat belts and that children under age 6 be restrained regardless of where they sit. Children under 3 must ride in child-restraint seats. Violators will receive warning tickets until Jan. 1, 1987.

After that, failure to obey the law will be a noncriminal infraction punishable by a $25 fine. NEW MUSEUM SETS ITS OPENING FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.

"The second is the arrival of the New South. The South itself is not the same.

A generation ago, there was almost no immigration into the South. The convention simply is not the homogenous body it used to be." Ms. Ammerman explored seven years of political strife within the denomination in a paper presented last month to the Society for the Scientific Study of Religion in Savannagh, Ga. The society includes about 1,400 sociologists, psychologists and other scholars. In that period, the convention has been the focus of an organized takeover attempt by people who want to put denominational control "firmly in the hands of fundamentalists with links to the new Christian Right," Ms.

Ammerman said. She said the re-election of the Rev. Charles Stanley as convention president and his appointments to major convention boards and agencies "tips the scales in the direction of long-term denominational control by fundamentalists." Stanley, pastor of First Baptist Church of Atlanta, won a second oneyear term at the convention's annual meeting in Dallas last June. But Baptist ministers in North Carolina say Ms. Ammerman's research pinpoints a factor in, but not the main cause of, Baptists' problems.
