Meeting the
Challenge . . .
Cooperatively!
Electricity is the highest
grade, most versatile ener
gy available We use it to
power motors, dnve pumps,
heat and provide light
Yet. despite its versatility,
electric energy has one
drawback It can't be
stored The simple fact is
electricity must be gen
erated when consumers de
mand it
That s why America's con
sumer-owned rural electric
systems have pleached
conservation for so many
years, asking people to
manage their use of power,
to use electricity more wise
ly and to use it at different
times of the day Your rural
electric cooperative must
have ready enough electrici
ty to meet the period of
highest demand If we can
reduce this peak ? if we
can even out demand ? it
means we all will benefit
We can help you find ways
to save energy and money,
ways to help us reduce
peak loads Give us a call
Well attack your energy
problems the way we met
the challenge of bringing
light to the countryside

Student Pilot At Age 16
Tom Langdon was ready to fly an
airplane by himself two years
before he could get his license to
drive a car.
Langdon, a junior at Hoke
County High School and son of Mr.
and Mrs. Glenn Langdon, couldn't
make his solo flight, either, at 14.
and had to wait till he was 16.
Then he did it -- on his 16th
birthday, last May 28. at the
Statesville Airport.
Since then he has made his first
solo flight away from an airport.
That was to Laurinburg and, by the
rules, after he had made the same
trip with an instructor.
His mother says he hopes to
make a career in aviation.
Performer Visits
West Hoke School
"That's my cousin!" shouts one
student. "I know him," yells
another. Still another voice, "He's
been here before; 1 saw him at
Pembroke. He was in that movie we
saw."
One after another the students
remarked about the handsome,
energetic and electrifying indivi
dual that appeared on stage after
being introduced by Mr. Earl
Oxendine, Federal Program Liai
son Officer.
As this well-known entertainer
talked of the importance of educa
tion, cautioned students to remain
in school and to heed the advice of
their teachers' the students, regard
less of race or culture, wanted to
reach out and touch this idol.
Anxiously and excitedly the girls
raised their hands, jumped up and
down, sighed "ooh" "ah-h-h" as
the personable performer asked for
a volunteer to join him on stage.
The students clapped and be
came totally involved as this proud
Lumbee Indian played his electric
guitar and sang songs of his
heritage. The songs he sang told
the story of a great people. A
people (though often stereotyped)
who have made great strides and
contributions to the growth and
development of our nation.
Willie Lowery, composer - musi
cian, represents these people --
proud and free. Born in Robeson
County, but resided in Baltimore,
Maryland for many years. Willie's
songs echoed the history of his
people as he sang a song in tribute
of Reverend Fuller D. Lowery, first
graduate of Croatan Normal School
(now known as Pembroke State
University). In addition, the melo
dious voice resounded, "Brown
Skin Child" and "Battle of Henry
Bear," two of the songs from the
outdoor drama "Strike At The
Wind" for which he wrote the
music.
Although Willie has developed
his own unique style, one can detect
a cross-section of Lionel Richie and
Kenny Rogers. One may say his
renditions of 'Three Times A
Lady" and "The Gambler" are just
examples of the songs which indi
cate his respect and admiration for
the eelebreties.
In fact, respect and admiration is
probably what inspires the nation
ally known entertainer, (who has
traveled through the United States
and Europe) to visit the schools as v
he did West Hoke during American
Indian Heritage Week. It is also
what prompted him to accept the
position of Director of Creative
Arts at the Center for Arts in
Pembroke -- a position in which he
is able to use his talents to promote
self-respect and personal dignity
among a people ? proud and free.
