THE BOARD OF SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS OF THE CITY OF INDIANAPOLIS 9-30-78-2T P.O. 46352 -- 1,1 i 1 Minority bankers to meet Oct. 17 The National Bankers Association, trade group for minor-ity-owned and operated banks, is holding its 51st annual convention in Los Angeles, on October 17-21, at the Century Plaza Hotel. Robert E. James, president of NBA, expects this year’s convention to be one of the most exciting and informative assemblies in NBA history. James points out that “during workshops and group meetings we will be able to explore a wide range of ideas and experiences. We will also address a number of pressing issues directly affecting minority banks. These issues demand our collective attention. “We have also-developed an excellent program for our members and visitors this year,’’ continues James. Among the keynote speakers are Bettye B. Anderson, Under Secretary of Treasury; Thomas Bradley, mayor of Los Angeles; William Clement, Jr., associate administrator. Small Business Administrati on; John G. Heimann, Comptroller of the Currency, and Henry S. Reuss, Chairman, House Banking Committee. Thomas K. Goines, recently named executive director of the National Bankers Association, feels that this year’s convention theme “Minority Banking: A Growth Industry" reflects the exciting activity happening within the banking industry. “NBA’s Bank Deposit Program is accelerating to an upbeat pace as a result of the responsiveness of the federal agencies and private corporations.' remarks Goines. Goines explains that the annual ^ convention serves several purposes. “First,” he says, “it provides a national forum for the exchange of ideas and information. Second, it is the capstone of NBA activitiea for the year. Every year achievements are highlighted and problems discussed and often resolved. And third, it gives us the opportunity to get together and enjoy each other’s fellowship.” Medicare deductible to increase WASHINGTON The nation's 27 million Medicare recipients will have to pay higher hospital fees from their own pockets next year ^before the government's insurance program for the elderly steps in to pay the rest. The standard base payment for Medicare patients entering hospitals will rise from $144 to $160 on Jan. 1, and increase of 11 per cent. There will be comparable fee increases for patients hospitalized with extended illnesses and those transferred to nursing homes. Administration officials said the fee increases in the Medicare program for the elderly are a direct result of unchecked inflation in the health care industry. Hale Champion, undersecretary of HEW, said the amount Medicare patients must pay before the government steps in has risen from $40 years ago to $144 this year with the new $16 increase yet to be felt. In addition, a patient hospitalized for more than 60 days soon will be required to pay $40 a day in room charges before Medicare takes over, a $4-a-day increase. And those remaining in the hospital more than 90 days will be required to pay $80 a day, up from $72. Medicare patients who are transferred from hospitals to nursing homes will be required to pay $20 for each day they stay in the nursing home after the first 20 days, s $2-a-day increase. SAMUIL MARTIN Graveside services for Samuel Sylvester Martin, 80-year-old retired plumber, were September 29 in New Crown Cemetery. Mr. Martin, 845 W. 26th, died September 25 at Wishard Memorial Hospital. Surviving are two daughters, Mrs. Ida Mae Bass and Mrs. Bertha Shiflet.

Putting Walls To Work

The largest single element in room decor are your walls. They are what you see first when you enter a room, and can be the dominating factor—drawing attention toward or away from the room’s architectural features and altering the illusion of size and shape. Before you decide whether to give them plain paint, molding trims, cloth or wallpaper coverings, you should decide on your goal by answering the following questions: 1. Is the room large or small? If one room opens into another, you may want to create an illusion of a unified whole by continuing your covering and trim colors into the adjoining area. Light-colored walls make a small room seem larger. Dark hues reduce the size of large areas, while a shirred fabric covering lends a feeling of luxury. Carried over the ceiling as well, fabric acts as an insulation and acoustical material. Sometimes a living room can seem almost too spacious. To bring ii together and make it look livable, try modular furniture divided into two seating areas: one at the end of the room and another near a focal point like a fireplace or big window. Unity can be achieved by covering the furniture (which you can make yourself) with dark-colored patterned sheets and by making Roman shades and plush pillows from the same sheets. Color-key the walls to the predominant hue in the material. For specific instructions on how to make modular furniture and other ideas for decorating with sheets and towels, send $1.50 for the magazine, “Patterns for Living,” Vol. II to Martex, P. O. Box 610 A A, West Point, GA 31822.

Rooms designed bv Alexandra Eames SHEETS CAN DECORATE EVERYTHING—furniture, windows, tables, folding screens, pillows, and even walls. 2. What will bo the

room’s use 9

First, decide whether it will be for TV watching and leisure activities, dining, lounging, or even a combination of these. Next, settle on the style: casual or elegant, frilly or businesslike, simple or ornate. If you’ve determined that the style will be elegant yet simple, you’ll probably choose subdued or muted colors in plain fabrics, but if the style you want is sophisticated modern, you may opt for trim, crisp geometric styles in bright colors. 3. Do you want the room to be warm and friendly, aloof and formal,

or rustic?

Color establishes the atmosphere of a room and its overall personality. Once you’ve decided on a general style and fabric patterns, choose your colors. Some cool colors, such as crisp blues and greens, are good for too-sunny rooms. Warm hues like orange, yellow and red are “sun” colors that cheer up a dull, cold room. Remember, wood and natural brick are colors, too. 4. Are there flaws on the walls to cover? Dark patterned sheets dis-

You can paste sheets onto flat surfaces like wallpaper, but, first, fill cracks with spackling compound and make sure all surfaces are clean and white or off-white if you’re using sheets. Those stapled on conceal unevenness and a poor condition effectively. Light-colored sheets pasted on tend to reveal them. The Martex magazine gives instructions for stapling, pasting and shirring sheets on

walls.

Deputy Mayor Slash heads 8 Accounts for Goldsmith’

Indianapolis Deputy Mayor Joseph A. Slash has announced the formation of an "Accountants for Steve Goldsmith Committee" to back the candidacy of Republican Steve Goldsmith for Marion County Prosecutor. Deputy Mayor Slash, who is a certified public accountant, announced that George S. Olive, Jr. will serve as co-chair-man of the Committee and that Eugene P. Fitzgerald will serve as Secretary. “One of the most important skills needed by a county prosecutor is the ability to manage a large staff with a big budget and an even bigger caseload," Olive said. “Steve Goldsmith is, by far, the most qualified candidate for Prosecu-

tor,” he added. Slash said Goldsmith has "The managerial ability needed to lead the fight against crime in the City and out in the County. Goldsmith has prom ised vigorous prosecution of all criminals and assita^ce for the victims of crime and witnesses to crimes. Steve has earned the reputation of being hard working, competent and honest and will make a great prosecutor,” Slash added. Goldsmith expressed his appreciation for the professional accountants’ support and said their endorsement “emphasizes our commitment to good government and honest prosecution through the involvement of talented and dedicated individuals."

The lawyer’s obligation: free assistance for poor

BUFFALO, N.Y.“Unless the legal profession ensures that no one in this country shall be denied legal assistance because of lack of resources, the government will make us do it,” “Thomas Ehrlich, president of the Legal Services Corporation told participants at last week’s Model Public Interest Law Conference at the State University of New * York, Buffalo Law School. The Legal Services Corporation is an independent, non-pro-fit organization established in 1974 and funded by Congress to provide legal assistance to the poor in civil matters. The Conference, sponsored by the American Bar Association Special Committee on Public Interest Practice, the Erie County Bar Association, and the SUNY, Buffalo Law School, is designed to inform lawyers, bar associations, business, government, and community leaders about the need for public interest law practice and possibilities for that practice. Ehrlich, former dean of Stanford Law School, called on the legal profession to develop standards of decent legal care for average citizens, and said that legal assistance will never be available to all who need it unless all lawyers provide a minimum amount of public service work free of charge. He explained that “every lawyer is part of the legal system with an obligation to help make the system work. It is a system that the residents of this country have no choice about. They must use it. They must live under the law..In return...the opportunity to use the legal system is an inherent right of citizenship. If political liberty means anything at all, it must mean that. "For the vast majority of people, this right...can only be realised if there is access to a lawyer. Lawyers are those

who make the legal system work. We have a monopoly on legal services,” Ehrlich said, “and with the monopoly comes an obligation to serve the public." LE0TA BECK Mrs. Leota Beck, 53-year-old retired domestic worker, died September 19 at St. Vincent Hospital.

BE ALERT FOR holes and other yard hazards that could tip you over. at the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute for making your mower as safe as it is practical. 1. Be alert at all times—for holes and other yard hazards, and for the safety of anyone passing by (especially when you’re backing up). 2. With a riding mower, cut 'up and down slopes to diminish the chance of tipping over. 3. Whenever you dismount from the mower, make sure the engine is off and has stopped completely. 4. Mowing should be a .solo act. A passenger could put you off balance—or distract you at a bad time. 5. Know your operator’s manual. You can forget important safety practices from year to year. With die help of these tips— and a little common sense— you can have the neatest (and safest) lawn in town.
