A Clemjson University professor believes he's come up with a way to give a chicken more of what nature should have. Professor James Act<>n and graduate student Bonnie Bowie have found three ways to bleach dark meat to the i 1 ui ciiickcii oreasisi The process could mean a revolutionary change in the industry because most people fancy light meat over dark. There's often a glut of dark meat on the market. And dark meat accounts for 45 percent of an edible chicken less the wings and neck. A lot of that is sold for pet food, so selling it for human consumption would bring a higher price. Acton, who hatched the idea, says the bleaching can be dnnp with hicnlfitr> acpnrhir ari/H anrl nf>rnvirld The bisulphite produces white meat, but it also generated a hint of sulphur taste, which probably would limit its marketability, Acton said. Ascorbic acid, which contains Vitamin C, also worked, but Acton said he likes peroxide better. "1 think the peroxide offers the greatest potential," he said. Atlanta woman recognizes assailant on television Associated Press ATLANTA ? A woman testified that while she was watching a Ku Klux Klan rally on television, she recognized a man who had beaten her and warned her against associating wim macks. Peggy Jo French I est i tied Monday in the U.S. District Court trial of four Klan members, including two accused of beating her in her Waco home in Nov. 1982. French testified that all but one of her attackers wore masks. She said she was able to identify the unmasked man as Mailon Wood after spotting him on a television news report of Paulding County Klan rally in Jan. 1983. i licit videotape was played 111 court. It showed a man dressed in a Klan robe apparently arguing with two black men. Two juries, one seated in front of the other, are hearing the proceedings in a large courtroom in Atlanta's federal building. One jury is hearing the case against three men - Wood, 54, and his brother, Wonford Wood, 57, of Mableton, and Kenneth Davis, 39, of Tallapoosa. Davis and the Wood brothers are charged with two counts of violating civil rights and housing rights in an attack on the home of a hl:l<*k' TalhmniAta mnn luli/'i ic rrmrriprf I r? y ivlillu Minmnn Mailon Wood and davis arc charged with two similar counts in the Waco attack. The other jury is hearing a perjury charge against William Deering, 47, of Bremen, who was convicted of state burglary charges in connection with one of the incidents. French, her son, Michael Roper, 21, and her daughter, Lori Roper, 17, have identified Mailon Wood as one of their attackers. French said the incident at her home occurred one to two weeks after a black co-worker and relatives of the coworker came to her home to lend her a pickup truck to move some garbage. She said they went out tor a six-pack of beer and were involved in an accident in which the truck overturned. Neighbors assisted French and the blacks to get back to her home, she said. One to two weeks later, she said, "at least four" men burst into her home, "demanded where the Negroes was at, and where the children was at." She said one of the men grabbed her son, then 19, and held a gun to his head while another grabbed her daughter, then 15, took the girl to a bedroom and began questioning her.
