Campaigning was the order
of the day on Friday; reams of
literature listing qualifications
of candidates were passed out
to the delegates as they arrived
from far and near. Dozens of at
tractive potters decorated the
hotel lobbies, the elevators, and
the auditorium.
At the first general session

keynote address by State Presi
dent Steve Burns of East Meck
lenburg High School. This was
followed by campaign speeches
by the nine candidate* for state
offices and a talent program.
One of the highlights of the
convention was the annual Beta
Ball with the music of Bay Fink
house and his orcehatra from
8:00-11:00 Saturday evening.
This followed the banquet at
which the new state officers
were installed.
New officers who were elect
ed by the delegates attending
the convention were Buddy
Wester of Rockingham, presi
dent; Jerry Woods of Pittsboro,
vice-president; and Rindee
Hamrick of Crest High School,
Boiling Springs, secretary.

Ray, Becky Russell, Mickey Sea
ward and Johnny Stacy.
Dr. and Mrs. J. Frank Randall

Mrs. Randall commented, "Al
though we did not win the elec
tion, nominating Patty for vice
president was a valuable exper
ience for our members. Through
I their campaign activities, they
met and talked with many stu
dents whom they would not oth
erwise have met"
A high honor was paid to Mrs.
Randall, sponsor of the local
chapter, when she was chosen
sponsor-elect. She will serve as
state sponsor for the years 1986

John Ward, an employee of
the Blue Ridge Electric Mem
bership Corporation, and quali
fied first aid inatructor, has
been conducting first aid claases
at Bethel Hi* School for the
past two weeks. About 20 mem
bers have been enrolled from
Bethel and the Beaver Dam
community, this number includ
ing the future school bus driv
ers for the year 1963-84.
Mrs. Goldie C. Fletcher, Red
Cross secretary, feels that Mr.
Ward's volunteer services in
this field of training is going
to be beneficial both to the
Bethel School and to the com
munity. She expresses appreci
ation to him for his services
and to the Bethel School faculty
and the patrons for their coop
eration in promoting these
classes.
Mrs. Fletcher says it is the
purpose of the Red Cross to
continue the classes in this com
munity, and perhaps in other
communities, so that more
adults may be trained in first
aid practice*. It is also por
po*ed to follow up with home
nursing training for the women
of the county. This is described
as a very worthwhile program,
and it is hoped that volunteers
may be trained who may devote
some time to the hospital, blood
mobile, and other worthwhile
programs in the county.
About 250 insects in North
Carolina are pests, according
to George Jones, extension en
tomology specialist at North
Carolina State College.
