During 7/72, the BPP Chapter continued efforts to raise an appeal bond for the three BPP members from High Point, N. C., who were convicted on assault charges an who are currently confined in the North Carolina State Prison. BPP member GARY LILLY complained that the chapter was not doing enough to arrange bond for his brother, BRADFORD LILLY, one of the “High Point 3.'" GARY LILLY has been operating independently of the chapter in an effort to raise an appeal bond for his brother. During 7/72, the BPP Chapter concentrated its efforts in soliciting food for a Survival Day Rally which was held-on 7/30/72 in the parking lot of a predominantly black public housing project in Winston-Salem, N. C. This Survival Day Rally was the most ambitious project undertaken by the North Carolina Chapter to date. Through personal and telephonic contact with local merchants, BPP members were able to assemble 1,000 bags of groceries and several hundred pairs of childrens tennis shoes which were given away at the rally on 7/30/72. It is noted that the Black Panther newspaper reported that the North Carolina rally was one of four held throughout the country during 7/72, which were patterned after the original rally sponsored by the BPP earlier in Oakland, calif. Following this rally, LARRY LITTLE, head of the BPP Chapter, issued a press release stating this rally was the first of many such rallies to be held by the BPP and his group was immediately starting to work on a similar rally to be held in 9/72.
