The Vocational Work Shop at
Ellis Cross Roads started sp*
proximately four months ago for
mentally and physically han
dicapped people 16 yeers old or
older.
Mrs. Sarah Bray, director, la
responsible for the organization
of this work shop, after being
associated with a shop in Lex
ington, which is now well equip
ped and has (woven very suc
cessful. She learned that many
people in the Rowa&Bevie area
were also interested in the type
of training that she* could offer.
After only four months, the
workshop has acquired qualified
teachers from Rowan Tech,
some equipment and tools for
the classes.
GOOD EXAMPLE
Steve "B®ch" Click, son of
Mrs. Frances Wall Click, of
Cooleemee, ia a *****
of what nan be dons at Ellis
Croas Roads to help people feel
that they do belong in this big
world of ours. Butch had always
been in an Mated world of his
own, becuse he wasn't capable
of learning or being able to co
ordinate himself as other
chikferen Ua age.
He begged to quit school at
n very early age, which of
coarse, the law could not allow
until he became 16. At this time,
bocauae of his unhappiness and
always being at the bottom of
his class, his parents permitted
him to drop out of school.
Butch attended the workshop
in Lexington for a very short
time, but due to transportation
difficulty, could not remain
there. He has recently enrolled
in the newly organised shop at
Ellis Croas Roads and for the
first time in his life feels that
he ia accomplishing something.
After a trial period to
determine his capability, Butch
haa been placed in a class that
ia equipped with power seep and
other tools used in building and
repairing.
Continued on p«fD 16.

Journal Editor Gets Mad
No Supper For Hayden Benson!
Folks from Mocksville to Salisbury
are talking about last week's Journal
pot the paper, but all those pretty
fir Is in it.
If the paper was good for nothing
else, it certainly proved that Davie
County has some of the prettiest girls
in (he country.
First, there was Queen Vicki
Michael gracing the top of the front
page. Vicki, the frame coining quezn,
is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bob
Michael of Route 4, Mocks ville.
Down at the bottom of the page
was that good-looking cheerleader
Ann Stewart, who's so pretty she'd
turn a die-hard Catawba fan into a
Catamount any weekend.
Her picture almost got Hayden
Benson m trouble, too. Hayden and
I were looking over one of the first
Journals off the press. We got hung
up on the bottom part of the front
page so long that Marlene started
giving Hayden the bad eye and my
wife could sense something was wrong
all the way in Salisbury.
Ed Hoyie was griping because his
picture wasn't in the paper but we
paid him no mind. M was Mr. Hoyle
Parker Named
To Star Squad
John Parte, of Oootoemec,
who posted « 17-3 record at
Spertadburg taat season, has
bea named to fee AB-Esstern
Claas A baaebati learn in m
■■■ill Ml cowdartad by the
Toppe Chewing Company.
Parte, who was selected (ha
top pitcher in the Western
Gsrotiaas League, wffl receive
a liber trophy from Topps. Dan
Walton, who played with
Salisbmj two years ago, also
ssade the Al-Baatani team.
Walton was with Ashevißs dor
lag the past seaaoa.
Sr. who got Hayden off the hook with
Marlene. "Who's that girl on page
15?" he asked.
Now we don't want to make anyone
feel bad (there must've been 50 girls
on the page), but one of 'em sort
of readied out and grabbed you like
a movie star.
She turned out to be Vicki Hen
dricks, a freshman at West Carolina.
She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Robert Hendricks of Salisbury Street.
One more news tidbit and I'll shut
up. Ann Stewart's sister is married
to the brother of singer George
Hamilton IV and we hear they're liv
ing in Chapel Hill now. "If you think
Ann's tough," said Hayden, still drool
ing over her picture like a married
man shouldn't, "then you ought to
see her sister."
"And you," warned Marlene, "had
better shut up and turn the page or
you'll not get a bite of supper."
Meanwhile, if anyone's seen any
newspapers big or small that had
more pictures of beautiftil girls than
last week's Journal, we'd like to see
'em.
