Holloway said yesterday he won't run for office again in 1982 and will devote his retirement years to a new program he has organized to help minority youth. arrogance on buses and in class," he said. "We want to motivate them to become more assertive in a positive way.

"We have got to teach black youth that they can't be 'just as good' as the white youngsters," he said, "they've got to be better. This flies in the face of what we were saying in the 1960s that black is beautiful and somebody owes me something." The forum will invite 20 young people to a breakfast Nov. 10 at the Monday Club, 915 French where they will "be brought in direct contact with older black adults who can inform them there is no such thing as a free lunch," he said. He said he hopes that by sharing their experiences, the successful adults will encourage the younger people to try harder. "We want to take the 'I don't care attitude out of as many as we can by showing there is a good life for productive citizens," he said.

Holloway said the forum has met twice at "poor boys" lunches he paid for from his own legislative expense account. In the future he hopes to solicit private money for a small office and answering service. He said Saturday morning breakfasts will continue with a frequency dependent on the forum's finances, so he hopes the wider community will offer support. Holloway said "many black people have arrived at a level of success and an income bracket that allows them to live comfortably. All of them received help along the way from someone, in many cases, someone beyond their immediate family.

"So, now it's our turn," he said, "to turn around and offer a hand to see if we can pull someone an inch or two up along the ladder of life." The Wilmington Democrat, who, after 15 years in the state Senate, said he has "had enough" of politics, intends to work to motivate and encour-age minority youngsters. To fulfill his dream to form fact that it would not have been done if we hadn't taken this responsibility." He said he hopes the program will be "the benchmark of my having lived." At the first forum meeting last month, 30 professionals met at the Monday Club, a social organization, and heard Holloway outline his plan to provide positive role models for minority youth. "The enthusiasm," he said, "is terrific." He said the forum will work with Big Brothers and Big Sisters, as well fraternities, sororities, the YMCA, the Longshoremen's union and others. Noting that "most of the black leaders of the past were people with firm spiritual motivation," Holloway said the efforts of the forum are being "spearheaded by the ministers in the pulpits." Desegregation of schools in New Castle County brought a number of roblems for minority youth, Hol-oway said, "and we didn't want to see large numbers of them go down the drain because of their conduct, deportment and the stresses of a new situation. "The problem is with youngsters who are presenting themselves with SMtUMWictOf "Quality Carpet Owning" with our Truck' Mounted Stan Owning System.

Holloway By "not just an organization, but to start a movement," Holloway has gathered a group of prominent black clergymen, business leaders and educators in a forum on "Rights, Responsibility and Respect." They hope to offer advice and counseling to teen-agers. "We have a reservoir of professional talent in this community, people who could work with our youth and save many of them," he said.

Georges school announced yesterday. In June, after a seven-month probe by the attorney general's office and the Division of Social Services, Delaware denied the school a new license. L. Vincent Ramunno, the lawyer representing the school, said in a letter to the state that the decision to deny Au Clair a license was "arbitrary and capricious and is not supported by the facts nor the law." The letter to the state is the first step in an administrative appeal to the division of social services, which will be heard by a committee of representatives from the division and other child care agencies in Delaware. The school, home for 31 mentally or emotionally disturbed autistic children, has been in operation for eight years.

In a letter delivered Monday to Deputy Attorney General Matthew J. Lynch, Ramunno requested that investigators hand over their files on the school, "at least to let us know what the accusations are." In June, when the state first denied the license, the report concluded that Au Clair was understaffed and poorly managed, and that its staff intentionally and falsely exaggerated the services it offers. The report said the school used punishment repeatedly and without proper planning, monitoring and evaluation. Former Au Clair staff members alleged the punishment was at times violent and abusive. Kenneth M.

Mazik, the school's executive director, called the Delaware report the most unprofessional he had ever seen and argued that it was based on interviews with disgruntled employees. Parents of Au Clair students have supported Mazik and the school. They recently formed a committee to stop the state from closing the institution.
