Two cydo* for noi mol and imolt loadk WOODARD ELEC. SERVICE LAKE, SEA & RIVER ' BY GEORGE ROUMDS Everybody's ulking about outer space these days as the last of the frontiers. It's a costly safari and few of us will have die good fortune to take part in it. But there's a coreof adventurers who have turned to "inner space," and, with much smaller invest ments, have opened up a new frontier that average Joe's like you and I can explore. 1's talking about that other world beneath the water. Before the development os scuba equipment (scuba stands for self-contained under ^ater breathing apparatus) the underwater world was closed to all but a few- -Intrepid pearl divers, sponge divers, and "hard hat" deep-sea divers. Now it is quickly becoming the hobby of thousands around the world. The exotic mysteries of the sea are available to nearly all who are willing to plunk down $12 or so for a mask, flippers, and a snorkel or breathing tube. With this minimal equip ment you can paddle around on the surface and peer through you personal window into inner space. When thefancy strikes, you can plunge deeper into this other world for as long as you can hold your breath. You can short-cut the "look llne-and-sinker boys and fish with a speak, or you can be come a member of the fast growing clan of underwater photographers--a challenging and rewarding hobby. Once you ve tried your flippers on skin diving, you will unquestionably want to spend more time In this other world. Learning to scuba dive truly unlocks the door to Inner space. Once you've got the hang of It, you'll be able to drift weightless among the many wonders that exist only under the waves. Bui scum diving is some thing that must be learned properly. Let's face It. A man 60 or 70 feet under the water is just like a fish out of the water. He's in a foreign environment which has the ability of doing him in. For this reason, scuba diving is not for the untrianed. You can more than likely find proper training anywhere there's sufficient water to dive. The YMCA organizations have been giving excellent lessons in this sport for a good many years. As a matter of fact, most people who have taken up the sport have learned their lessons well, because die re ports of missing divers are very few and far between. Three basic safety rules: 1. Learn the rudiments from a qualified instructor; 2. Use only approved equipment; 3. Never dive alone. When I think of people getting their first taste of diving, 1 am reminded of the day about five years ago when my kid brother first donned mask, flippers and snorkel. It was on the Rhode Island shore, at a spot where I had done con siderable spear fishing. After a brief course in how to clear the mask and snorkel of water, he was on his own. He flipper about on the surface for a while, his face in the water as he scanned the bottom. Then he turned back to me, lifted his face out of the water and uttered one word that expresses what practically everyone feels on their first glimpse down into the sea? "Wow!" From that day on, we were in the water almost every day, rain or shine. To be sure, there are many spots where the water is too mucked up to see anything much when you dive. For folks in these areas , I suggest you stay topsides. Butifyoulive near a clear body of water, diving can add a whole new dimension to your life. You don't have to shell out a lot to enjoy it, either. While a boat isn t essential, it's a help. It can whisk you to unexplored waters easily and will serve as a base of operations. Two pieces of equipment you'll want onboard if you dive from your boat are a boarding ladder and a diver's flag. The ladder makes re boarding while wearing flippers a simple matter. The flag?a red flag with a diagonal white stripe?is to warn other boats in the area that there's a diver down below. A boat operator seeing this is required to stay clear, for obvious reasons. Diving canbeprofitable,too. Hobbyists have found there's some reward in salvagework, retrieving items lost over board, etc. There's also a group that dives in streams and rivers searching for gold. Then there's treasure hunting, a difficult but potentially profitable hobby. If you're really sold on diving, a number of firms specialize in under water work on a commercial basis. But there's plenty of per sonal reward in just diving for the sheer fun of it. It's one of the best ways to really get away from it all, short of shooting yourself into outer space.

BOB* SCOTT DEMOCRAT A Better opportunities for Edu cation ? Better opportunities for Jobs ? More and better Roads / Notice To Cherokee County Taxpayers Pay Your 1963 And Prior Taxes Now! Carlyle P. Matheson Tax Collector KITCHENS SUPPORTS DAN MOORE Dan Moore was named after his grandfather, Daniel K. Moore, who lived In the BRASSTOWN SECTION OF CLAY COUNTY FOR 31 YEARS. His grandfather owned part of the property where the John C. Campbell Folk School stands. This is the first chance in a 100 years to vote for a man from Western North Carolina for Governor and will probably be the last chance in our lifetime. Dan Moore is a man who worked his way through school by sweeping floors and firing furnaces. I have known him personally for years. As Sheriff of Clay County, I have held court when he was Solicitor and later Judge. He is a fine Christian gentleman who is fair minded and understands people. Western North Carolina carries its share of the State Tax load, yet the Pietknont section and Eastern section get most of our super highways. Clay County will never get industry until it gets roads. Dan Moore was reared in our mountains. He knows and understands our problem. If elected Governor, he will see that Western North Car olina - - -including Clay County ? - gets its fair share of roads, and that all State funds will be equally shared in our great State of North Carolina. Please Join Me In Voting For DAN K. MOORE. Let your vote have a meaning VOTE for DAN MOORE. I have known Dan Moore for a number of years as a man, lawyer. Judge, and public official with business experience and also known him to be a conscientious Christian gen tleman, well qualified in every respect to be our next Governor. He will serve all the State and will understand the needs of Western North Carolina. I feel sure that he will see that we get good equal treatment in roads and other things with the other people of our good State. Please join me in voting for him. GRAY SUPPORTS DAN MOORE V ? Dan Moore: a man you can trust] FOR integrity and independence in the governor's office. You can trust Dan Moore. His great-great-grandfather was the first white settler west of the Blue Ridge In North Carolina. Dan Moore is an able judge, lawyer, businessman and Democratic Party leader. He is NOT the hand-picked candidate of any political machine. FOR more efficient government, serv ing more people ? without an in crease in taxes. Dan Moore is a proven administrator who will LEAD ? not divide ? and produce RESULTS? not promises of economy. FOR genuine progress in public schools. Dan Moore was educated In public schools and at the Uni versity of North Carolina. He understands our educational needs, and has a positive program to improve the edu cation offered every child, whether average, gifted, or retarded. The UFE program can become a REALITY ? not a dream for years to come. FOR more jobs and payrolls. He Is the only candidate with any experience in indus trial management. His program for more industrial plants will create new jobs, more payrolls, and better job opportunities. FOR a new highway commission that is more interested in building highways than playing politics with your high way tax dollars. North Carolina's fine highway ' system is threatened with political tyranny unless the voters speak out against die political bosses now in control. FOR property rights of individual citlr zens as guaranteed by the U. S. Con stitution. He Is against the so-called Civil Rights Bill now before Congress. Vote for Dan Moore - the man you can trust - for governor. Pn?H falitlcet AH. By Friends of Don K. Moort In Cloy County ' - I
