Mi Per Week Six Month JUI STATE CHAMPIONS We join with everyone in Madi-on concrratulatino- Coach J. C. Wallin and tin High School Wildcats on winning the State Class Baseball Championship. It is seldom that any high school brings as much fame for its area as the Wildcats have done. By win ning all playoff games is indeed a feat. Better still, to include three no-hit performances in state playoffs. Two no-hitters by diminutive Steve Davis and n no-hitter by muscular Charles Tolley. This is a rec ord never before accomplished and will porbably be an all-time high school record. The Wildcats had a well-balanced, well-coached team ... no mistake about it. To say this was the greatest team in the school's history Ls debatable but the record amassed by the Wildcats in the playoffs is certainly not to be equalled in many years to come if ever. Our hats are off to the State Champions. SAFE, SOUND INVESTMENT Although county schools are dismissed for the summer months, the responsibility of maintaining and protecting the schools remains. Our understanding is that the board ef educa tion has inserted into the budget an amount for the installation of fire and burglar alarm warning sys tems for county schools. Jerry T. Melton, manager, Asheville Office, National Fire and Burglar Sys tems, Inc., has also discussed the matter with our county commissioners. "I feel that they were favor ably impressed' with the decision of the Board of Ed ucation to insert the equipment into its budget," Mr. Melton says. The equipment will sound a loud siren which will be heard for a radius of one mile or more from the school in the event a burglar tries to break into the building as well as the same siren to summon as sistance in the event of a fire. Experience will show that the losses due to burglary and vandalism in the past will be virtually eliminated as the alarm offers 99.9 security and is of a tamper proof nature. Each year in this country over 100,000 men, women and children are disfigured and burned in home and school fires and we feel sure that the peo ple of Madison County will Wholeheartedly support the decision to protect their children from this haz ard as it gives protection for the most prize posses sion they own, the lives of their children. In many parts of the country similar equipment is being installed on a mandatory basis by the school systems and therefore Madison County's school sys tem should be congratulated in its installation de cision as thejy have seen fit to protect their school system although the equipment is not yet mandatory by law. If at all feasible, we hope the commissioners and the board of education will see that this added pro tection is in use when schools reopen later this year.
