oiiynuy, a commentary trom uwignt liiis, tne minorityspecial<br />
sarvive, Nat'f Ass'n of B'casters voep, is worth writing home about<br />
whoever you're from. It's too long for the full write hand treatment, but<br />
you must dig what we consider his pertinent points. For openers he said;<br />
Tk windows of opportunity for Black and i..inority particiaption in the<br />
communicationentertainment industries may be closing. In good faith<br />
they cannot blame the system for where we are, or not, unless we can<br />
ligitimately be satisfied that we have exhausted all means of preparing<br />
ourselves for the exercise of power and participation. In 84 Black<br />
America produced 300 State Legislators,<br />
of Congress, 250-Mayo- rs<br />
and more than 400,000 businesses. Black Americans spent more<br />
dollars in '83 than the gross national product of Canada or 140 other<br />
countries throughout thn world. In spite of this laudable progress, and<br />
apparent wnlth, Black Americans can lay claim to ownership of less<br />
than 1 of the prime vehicles of news, information and entertainment in<br />
the nation."<br />
Still write on line, Ellis pointed out that according to Topper Carew,<br />
who for the past 15 years has been one of our most successful Black<br />
ps 'Mm, less than 1, 0086, of TV network shows were produced by<br />
Black or other minorities. If that failed to grabl you, "how about the fact<br />
that everything yu view on network television is produced by no more<br />
than producers. He said that he is pained by the fact<br />
that there are not more than four Blacks with adequate production skills<br />
to take advantage of the opportunities that exist. The result is that<br />
while we perpetuate generations of star-craz- youngaters reaching for<br />
the fame of the Max Robinson and Billy Dee Williams, scores of voting<br />
whites are toiling in the shadows learning the !sss glamorous skills of<br />
scriptwriting, camera work and lighting. They are the Speilbergs, tie<br />
Lucases, the Jon Peteres and Michael Douglasses of the entainment<br />
industries whom many of us should be setting our sights to overcome.<br />
The windows of opportunity have widened to accept something new,<br />
different So let's stop vesting our energies screaming about how we<br />
hate the Jeffersons, Benson, Gimme A Break, Diff rent Strokes and Mr. T.<br />
The truth is we love them ail. Blacks and other minorities deplors the<br />
lad of balance in the images, the representation<br />
of our existance in this<br />
nation. The issue and the challenge before us are whether we will rise to<br />
the occasion to produce our own images and some of theirs also."<br />
THE WIRTE NEWS: - The ad-pa- ct hammered out by the<br />
NNPA's will gross Black media $50-milli- over the ar<br />
life of the Coors Beer agreement Chris Bennett the org's aggressive<br />
prez and Bill Garth, comm. ch'person, laid the Black Press cards on the<br />
negotiating fable. The other hands in the overall $325 million boycott<br />
settlement were from the NAACP, P.U.S.H. and CAL-PA- C. An $8.8 million<br />
copy schedule is designed to move through the system withi., a wk. to<br />
s. The accord came none too soon for Coors, where, according to<br />
reports, profits were down more than 50...Leola Edwards is in from<br />
<strong>Texas</strong> searching the diamond arenas for the best deal to dispose of the<br />
late Cathrine Basie's jewelry. The cash will be added to the estate of<br />
"Katie's surviving daughter, Diane. The same one being legally<br />
questioned by "Lee's" daughter, Pamela Jackson-Tedd- y Pendergrass'<br />
new single, the first since his almost fatal Rolls mishap, "You're My<br />
Choice Tonite" has pickedup sales like a bonfire after NBC-T- V banned the<br />
vidcllp 'caude of its alleged sexual connotationsJoe Williams however<br />
is getting nothing but ears for his latest, "Nothing' But The Blues." And<br />
no wondah the musical backdrop is that sharp with Ray Brown, Red<br />
Holloway, Jack McDuff, Phil Upchurch and Eddie Cleanhead Vinson.The<br />
NAACP is replacing the lideness of Abe Lincoln on its Life Membership<br />
Plaques with that of Roy Wilkins. If yuo've got an old one and would<br />
like to make thw switch<br />
it can be done for 49 bucks...Michael Jackson<br />
quietly private jetted into Philly at 11 p.m. the other sundown to have<br />
his tresses dressed at Asd and Aida Webster's Beauty Salon and didn't<br />
leave until almost<br />
passing of Lucille Murray, Beryl and Dick<br />
Campbell's sister, and w and "write" hand at the Sickle Cell of<br />
Greater NY, was a community shocker. She neither smoked or enjoyed<br />
any of those vices which are supposed to cause lung cancer. Just so you<br />
get that line above straight in your mind, Pamela Jackson is questioning<br />
the legality of the will naming the trustees of the Estate left to Diane<br />
Basie, not her.<br />
WRITE RELEVANT: When Willie Mays was asked whom did<br />
he think would capture the "Most Valuable IPiayef award in his, old<br />
league he put us on hold. Ryne Sandberc, Cubs, fny Gwynn, the Padres<br />
and Keith Hernandez, the f lets, are the Nat'l League MVP standouts-E-<br />
x<br />
Lite Heavyweight champ Mathdw Saad Muhammad is a school<br />
commuter. He takes acting lessons twin a wk. in the "Big Apple" and<br />
diction course the same amout of days in the "City of Br j'ly Love." He's<br />
gotta be serious about his acting career...The other press seemed write<br />
shocked that over half of the Vioso Music Awards selected by the 1500<br />
voters went to Black Artists. Of the 15 Michael Jackson got three and<br />
Hrbie Hancock received five. Quincy Jones was on eye leve. He piid a<br />
tribute to the late Count Basie and recieyed a special award. Tina turner<br />
was on the scene and as expected stopped the show cold with her usual<br />
hot performance.. When the Bro & Sis git big our news about them<br />
come? second printing so from the other media we dug that Ben Harney<br />
the handsome talent of "Dreamgirl and his Mrs. have named the new<br />
arrival Ben, Jr.Ibcny snould have headlined it "10 Rest<br />
Dressed Black Public Maie Figures." I know some dtioes around the<br />
corner who match threads better at less than half the cost of Assembly<br />
Speaker Brown's $1500 hand stiched Brionl Wondah who were the<br />
jwges. However as always the nag, especially the mm with clout In<br />

Ever wonder what those<br />
Latin names and abbreviations<br />
mean on the<br />
proscription your dootor<br />
hands you? You should<br />
know, if only to make sure<br />
that the pharmacist is<br />
following the doctor's instructions<br />
exactly.<br />
A proscription is, in effect,<br />
a logal document<br />
an order for a specific<br />
medication for a specific<br />
patient. The inscription<br />
describes the medication<br />
and the amount. (Always<br />
ask your physician to<br />
prescribe the generic,<br />
rather than the brand<br />
name, if possible it's<br />
cheaper.)<br />
The subscription is the<br />
doctor's instruction to the<br />
pharmacist as to how<br />
much of the medication to<br />
dispense. The doctor's in<br />
struction to the patient is<br />
the signature often, abbreviated<br />
to "Sig." or<br />
Label" such as "Take<br />
one tablet three times daily."<br />
It's important that<br />
be<br />
these instructions<br />
typed clearly, in case yu<br />
go to another doctor. He'll<br />
want to know exactly<br />
what medication you're<br />
taking, as some drugs<br />
cancel each other out, or<br />
react unfavorably together.<br />
Here are the Latin abbreviations,<br />
and their<br />
English meanings, that<br />
you should know:<br />
b.i.d. twice a day<br />
t.i.d. three a day<br />
q.i.d. four, a day<br />
