Despite EOA’s regulation about poiitica’ neutrality, two persons announced at the meet- ing that they are candidates for the Atlanta Board of Education and a third person advised those present to “begin political action to unseat certain board members.” The occasion was a meeting of the education sub- committee of EOA’s Citizens’ Central Advisory Committee Monday night at West Hunter Street Baptist Church.

Sharon is almost 13 years old and she lives in that area west of the Atlanta stadium called Mechanicsville. Life isn’t easy for most people , in Mechanicsville and it doesn’t seem possible that it could be remotely comfortable for Sharon and her family. There are about 20 of them — 16 children at last count — living in a three and a half room house. Her father, uned- ucated and untrained for any kind of work, -had a poor-paying job until recently but it fiz- zled out and according to the last report he was on the street looking again. None of this looks particularly jolly for a lit- tle girl but on top of that everybody took it for granted that Sharon was mentally retarded. Her efforts at talk were gibberish. She clearly didn’t understand what was said to her. The regular escape from an overcrowded and im- poverished home, public school was closed to her. Then Sharon found a friend. Mrs. Bernice Miller, mother of three and a former school traffic policewoman, visited Sharon’s home as a part of her job as an Eco- nomic Oppor ervice aide. The little girl's face attracted her. She could see something was wrong and, withthe seem- ingly boundless optimism of EOA workers, she a é up her mind to gef Sharon some expert elp. The first thing was a psychological test and then she took Sharon to the Butler Health Cen- ter for a physical examination and then, lo and behold, they found the trouble. “Sharon was not mentally retarded but prac: tically stone deaf.

Sharon has a lot of catching up to do and it isn’t going to be easy for a time. But things are looking up. She is getting special attention at the Milton Avenue School, where they con- centrate on work with iwretarded children. She has speech lessons, amamg others, and can now make herself understood better. “Sharon still lives at the crowded Mechan- icsville address,"” Mr. Downs wrote in his re- port. “But now nearly every day she is at the Sum-Mee (Summerville-Mechanicsville) Center participating in dancing, drawing and elemen- tary writing.

They asked Ine how I liked the Lion’s Head and The Abbey and I said, “Huh? What's that?” “You have to gel out and see more,” Carolyn told me firmly. ‘We're going to take you in hand,” And I made a resolution to get oul more and see more and went straight home, flushed with righteousness born of new resolve, changed to my jeans and straw hat and went blackberrying. He Tit i IN SPITE of what I say, I really enioy the quiet country pleasures. Blackberries are Teaching their peak around Sweet Apple settlement now and it would be terrible to be kiting off to Seven Flags or Some enticing new restaurant eating all manner of gorgeous food when the blackberries are hanging'there on the vine geiling over-ripe. Some people can pass up blackberries, I realize. There are those who are afraid of snakes and those who hate briars and even more who are turned back by chiggers. But I know of no pleasanter way to pass the hours of the sun's setting and twilight’s settling in than in a certain pasture down on Little River picking berries. The hay has been Freshly cut and the random strands Pe Gat OM & wee the mowers left have turned to gold. The summer stin has dried them and in the drying brought out that sweet July fragrance that’s like none other. In the oak trees on the hills the July flies saw away and down on the river bank frogs start their late evening symphony, punciuating it with an occasional soft, cooling “plop” into the water. A mockingbird sings from the beautiful big poplar in the center of the pasture and car- dinals make gentle night-com- ing-on murmurings in the al- ders by the stream. IT’S EASY to reach the lit ile berries and there are plenty of them but the big ones, the long blue black ones that look as fat and tempting as little sausages, hang way baci. in the briars. I always pause ™before reaching for one of them and then, following the example of my neighbor Doc, T stamp on the ground, rustle the bushes and sing lustily, “You can’t see snakes when it’s this thick,” says Doc, plunking a handful ef berries into his bucket with a tuneful sound. “I like to think the snakes can’t see me either.” ig aE IT’S THE PROPER attitude for a dedicated black-berrver and it makes for a musical outing. At one end of, the pas- ture Doc heists a tune about faithless lovers. At my end I sing my favorite, “I Don’t eS Want to Walk Without You, ort A Baby,” meaning just the op- Lit gf posite if any snakes are lis- tening and in between I hear a mumbled curse from some- body who was briar scratched and random slaps at mosqui- tos and horse flies, * % Da IT’S NOT Six Flags, nor yet going oul to dinner.
