WASHINGTON--MAVERICK PRIEST--As a photographer takes aim, Rev. George A. Stallings preaches before an independent Catholic congregation Sunday morning at Howard University in Washington, against the wishes of his bishop, Cardinal James A. Hickey. According to church officials, Stalling's establishment of the Imani Temple is a major blow to Hickey, who earlier this year was accused of racism for closing three inner-city Catholic high schools. The move also puts Stallings on a collision course with the Roman Catholic Church.

About 45 members of the Safe Streets Campaign picket outside a Summit area home 08/30/1989. Safe Streeters believe the owner of the Exeter Arms Apartments lives in the Summit area house. A large group of neighbors suspect crack activity in the apartments. The owner has been contacted by Safe Street volunteers and staff in an attempt to assist the owner in resolving this problem, but his lack of cooperation made it necessary for the picketing.

School, Bates Vocational-Technical Institute - 15
Back of Photo:
Toni Hale, an auto mechanic student at Bates, the Voc School is a single parent of Tiffany Morris (5), was chosen the Automotive Dept. Bates student of the year last year, and after class she is a work study student and works in the school office as a secretary. She has been in the auto program for a year and a half, and is a good enough student that the instructor uses her to teach newer students to the class. One of the major problems in this trade is that the instructor said NO employer will give a trained woman mechanic a chance. But that doesn't deter Toni, she wants to specialize in Electrical problems and Tune-up work. Her instructor is trying to steer her into the Service Writers position, but she wants to be in the pits. She chose this profession because she got tired of guys ripping her off when she took her car in for repairs and the cost of getting it repaired. She is pleased with herself and the way the car runs after she gets through repairing it, she said it's a challenge. She said the course is not easy but you will never know you can do it until you try, that's why she did. She said she doesn't listen to the males in the class, and their egos,... In the photo she is making a mixture adjustment to a cars carburetor and checking the reading on the Sun Scope.

Soviet chess player Elena Akhmilovskaya and U.S. chess player John Donaldson came to live in Seattle after they were married Nov. 25, 1988. But Elena's seven-year-old daughter, Dana, had to remain behind in the Soviet Union. Elena told the Washington State Law and Justice Committee that she deeply misses her daughter, and that she and her husband have applied to Soviet authorities to allow Dana to come to the United States. A resolution asking that Dana be allowed to come to the USA was introduced into the State Senate.
