Sunday at the R.J.A. Community Center. The S.C. Coastal Council By BRUCE SMITH Associated Press Writer CHARLESTON, S.C. The South Carolina Coastal Council, besting 28 other states, has the nation's best coastal management agency, council officials announced Friday.

The council, established in 1977 to regulate development in the state's coastal counties, was selected as the best coastal program in the nation by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. "It is something we can all be proud of," said council chairman Wes Jones. "When you consider Hugo and you consider the introduction of the Beachfront Management Act, we have been tested as an agency." Council executive director Wayne Beam said the award was a tribute to those who have served on council and to the people of the state. "There is an innate conservation ethic among our people," he said. "The citizens of South Carolina should well share in this award." David McKinnie of NOAA's office of Coastal Resource Management said South Carolina has an innovative program.

What is being done in South Carolina is benefiting all this country's coastal resources," he said.

During its meeting, 1 the council reversed an earlier committee decision and allowed rebuilding of a waterfront pavilion that had been a traditional summertime gathering place for blacks. Four years ago, council gave William Wilder a permit to rebuild Mosquito Beach Pavilion over the marsh near Folly Beach. But before the work could be completed, Hurricane Hugo washed it away. Council rules discourage building over the water and a year ago, the permitting committee denied Wilder an extension on his permit. That decision was reversed Friday.

Attorney Ellison Smith, representing Wilder, said the original permit required tearing down the structure and rebuilding it on the site. The only difference now is that the storm took it down, he said. "The permit contemplated the building be torn down. God did it, not Bill Wilder," he said. The pavilion was built in 1953 at a time when blacks were not welcome at many coastal beaches.

It was formerly operated by Wilder's uncle but has not been used since 1984. By SUE POOLE Staff Writer State and local governments, public safety and emergency services and utility companies won't be forced by law to relocate radio frequencies, and that's good news for Santee Cooper and others who operate on the 2 gigahertz dial. The Federal Communications Commission ruled Thursday to preserve the frequency used by utilities like Santee Cooper. Had the FCC ruled otherwise, proposed changes would have cost Santee Cooper and its ratepayers an estimated $10 million to alter or reprogram the equipment. Local emergency agencies would not have been affected by passage of a law forcing abandonment by incumbent users depending on the 2 gigahertz spectrum.

Keitt Brandenburg, owner of a Bamberg County radio sales and services outlet, said, "It'll be a long time before a rural area uses the 2 gigahertz spectrum.

He was a standout basketball player at Beaufort Academy and received a scholarship to The Citadel. He is a black athlete at a school that uses Dixie as its fight song and waves a Confederate flag at virtually every celebratory occasion. In the context of Reilly's article, which takes racism at the institution to task as well as hazing, Jones could have been an endangered species during his freshman year.

"I didn't think (my freshman year) was that bad," Jones said. "It wasn't as bad as (Reilly's story) made it seem. I think a lot of stuff was blown out of proportion. "They never touched me or anything. It was more mental.

You just can't let it get to you." While Jones believes some of the stories are a bit blown out of proportion, he admits some things do get out of hand. "It can get pretty bad in barracks sometimes," he said. "A couple of people who are real hardgoing and get real involved in the military stuff can go to certain extremes. "You know hazing goes on here, but it's hard to really spot it because the freshmen are scared. They're scared that if they do tell, it'll keep going on and Athletes for the most part are only observers in the fourth-class system after their freshman year, Jones said.

The Rebel flags and singing of "Dixie" does go on and on. It's a haunting reminder of an era in the South supposedly gone by. Sometimes it bothers Jones to see the flag waved or hear "Dixie." A clear, blackand-white line of demarcation can still be found along The Long Gray Line. "Sometimes I feel like I fit in and everything, but sometimes I feel excluded," Jones said. "I've heard racial slurs not directed at me.

"Yeah, there's racism here, but it's didn't pass."

FCC Commissioner statement, "Our and I am very satisfied everywhere. The same as at any other college." Reilly's story ebbs through cuts and bruises administered to three former cadets by sophomore members of the school's training cadre allegedly out of control.

It is punctuated by haunting illustrations by Hendrick Drescher in strong red and black hues reminiscent of German impressionist Edward Much, known for the provocatively violent images created in paintings like "The The recollection of the former cadets, like the pictures, are disturbing, and Conroy says those former cadets told the truth. "I just finished a letter to the editor of Sports Illustrated," Conroy said from his San Francisco home. "They sent a fabulous reporter to The Citadel. (Reilly) is great writer and one who was entirely accurate. He completely corroborated my book "The Lords of Discipline," and I am grateful to him." If the Citadel is under the microscope now for the abuses within its 150-year-old fourth-class system, Conroy was perhaps the first to put it under the magnifying glass.

Fact and fiction first became intertwined at The Citadel when Conroy published "The Boo" and then "The Lords of Discipline" a book that did not win Conroy many fans among his fellow Citadel alumni. "I consider myself one of the most loyal of Citadel alumni. But I hate the brutality of the plebe system," Conroy said. "I have hated it from the first day until now. That's my only argument with The Citadel." Citadel alumni who gather now in defense of their alma mater are "closing the ranks" covering up as the national media once again rains on The Citadel's parade, he said.

The school, Conroy believes, is in serious jeopardy after this latest incident.

The skeletal remains of Norsaadah Husain were found by a deer hunter Wednesday in a wooded area near Oconee Nuclear Station. In the other case, Daisy Ruth Moore Snider, 42, was abducted from a high school track in November 1988. Her body also was found by a deer hunter about a mile from where Ms.

Husain's remains were found, Oconee County chief deputy James Singleton said. "The only reason we would have to believe that the cases are connected is the area (where) the a were found and that both were abducted from Pickens County," he said. "We're not saying at this point there's a connection." Ms. Husain, 30, a native of Malaysia, was last seen June 8 at a laundromat in the small Pickens County town. "This is a tragic ending for Norsaadah and her family," Pickens County Assistant Sheriff Tim Morgan said.

"But we have pursued (the case) aggressively and will continue to do Leg, shoulder, arm and rib bones and the skull were found in two different spots about 20 yards apart, with the body apparently ravaged by animals and decomposed by the hot weather since Ms. Husain disappeared, said acting Oconee County Coroner Becky Gerrard.

He said the fourth-class was out of control within its own ranks last year and has gotten this year only because of the fear of the media. "It's better this year because they're terrified of the press," "Like roaches, they run from the light." Conroy's own beat goes on or without the rest of the "Long Line."

"The upper classmen are stupid to do that kind of stuff," said. "If they are, they ought to run the hell out (of The Citadel) way." Fisher Price child safety seats recalled For The COLUMBIA The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced an urgent national recall of Fisher Price child car safety seats, according to the S.C.

Department of Health and Environmental Control. The recall of Fisher-Price Models 9100 and 9101 involves 472,00 with loose shoulder belts and 423,900 with faulty buckles, according to Kathleen Myrick, health education consultant with DHEC's Division of Children's Health. Myrick said installing a plastic cover supplied by the manufacturer on the connector bar will prevent the shoulder belts from becoming unfastened. On the buckles, the plastic laminate inside the buckle can crack and cause difficulty in latching. Myrick said the buckle should be replaced with a new part being supplied by the manufacturer.

Consumers who own FisherPrice Models 9100 and 9101 child safety seats manufactured between Feb. 8, 1991, and Jan. 24, 1992, should contact Fisher at 1-800-432-5437 to obtain a plastic cover for the connector bar. Owners of models manufactured between May 1, 1987, to Nov. 1, 1989, should call to obtain a new assembly.

Myrick said owners of defective seats should use an alternative child restraint while waiting for a remedy kit or continue using the Fisher-Price 9100 or 9101 if an alternative is not available. An unstrained child is much more likely to suffer serious injury in a crash than a properly restrained child. In Loving Memory Of Gussie R.
