Yeah, I knew Bobby Lee Hunter," Charles said. "He's a real good kid." Bobby Hunter, boxing champion to be featured in an ABC movie, will give a boxing exhibition at the Columbia Cor rectional Institution"Success Rally," according to Ron Hud son, rally chairman. "The other stars of the movie are expected also," Hudson added. With his educational advances at Manning, Charles received job advancements. "After the laundry job, I got a job as a clerk making $11.50 a month. The maximum an inmate earns is $21 a month," he explained. Charles was advanced quickly to this salary and put in charge of the inmates' library and news paper. Charles was released from Manning Correctional Institu tion in 1971. When he applied Most honorable Souti Russell House Cafete New Year. You be se to enlighten your Wes Eat on c from that to enter USC, he was denied enrollment, he said. Later he entered on 12 months' proba tion. "Money was my biggest prob lem," Charles said. His tuition and books were bought through a vocational rehabilitation fund under the Alston Wilkes Soci ety, an organization for helping inmates. With his father dead, Charles qualified for VA assistance and social security aid. "But I still needed a job," he said. He worked awhile as a janitor at a department store on Main Street and later as a bellboy in the Hotel Wade Ham pton. "They were the best jobs I could find. Some people you work with find out about your record and they hound you and hawk you until you're fired," he said. "It always cropped up and I'll admit I've got a temper." Charles is not working pre sently. Last month he married a USC psychology graduate. He has one of his five brothers liv ing with him. "I'm the only one to finish high school," Charles said. "All of my brothers have been in trouble and have records. Dave, he's 17 now, lives with me. He was once con victed of drug pushing. I'll kick his ass if he tries any of that here." After Charles started USC, am.s. Uiantenn. crowd' there were about 20 of his one time fellow inmates at the University. "They either quit school or got busted for selling drugs again," Charles said, explaining he is now the only one left in school. "Money was their biggest hassle. The major ity of the guys want a break and won't screw up if they got it. Look at me, I've been straight since I got out of Manning," he said smiling. "But it's hard gett ing away from that crowd. I'm always being approached by former associates and asked to help pull some jobs. Just last year my supposed best friend got me mixed up with a burg lary charge. I had three people to testify to my alibi that I was home studying with my girlfriend and a couple of others. But I was arrested and given a lie detector test three times. They finally let me go." Regarding the "Success Rally" program and its board members, Charles said, "I think if they screened the inmates real good, considered the time left on their sentence, the record of their stay-ln prison and evaluated their ability to do college work, they wouldn't make mistakes. The scholarships would help a lot. The majority of them would make it." d to humble p ad at uary 31 for Chinese :hop sticks and food s you there. Service.
