Scholarship is endowed BOILING SPRINGS-The Rev. Robert W. and Elva S. Abrams of Boiling Springs have established an endowed scholarship fer the Christian Service Organization at Gardener-Webb College. The Robert Kelly and Essie Louise C. Spake Endowed Scholarship was established by the Abramses in memory of Mrs. Abrams' parents, who were of Casar. Mrs. Abrams was on of three Spake daughters to attend Gardner- Webb College. She completed two years at the junior college before earning a bachelor's degree at Appalachian State University. The Christian Service Organization scholarship gives preference to worthy and/or needy students who are sacred of church music majors. Mrs. Abrams says that her parents both loved music, particularly her mother. She recalls how her mother, even at age 95, would turn the pages of a hymn book and sing for hours. Mrs. Abrams also recalls the sacrifice her parents made to allow her to attend college. "I saw the need for other students to get help,” she says of the decision to endow a scholarship, "I realized that many people who want to go to college do not have a Service Organization. The benefits of a scholarship would continue to live on and on, Mrs. Abrams says, leaving a mark that says the couple "made a differ- ence." Mansfield to perform at Gaston Folk musician Bill Mansfield, who describes his down-home style as "unpretentious and dis- tinctly Southern," will be in con- cert at Gaston College on April 10. The banjo player/singer will pre- sent 2 free shows: at 11 am in the College cafeteria and at 7:30 pm in Myers Center Auditorium. Reservations may be made by call- _ ing 922-6254. Groups are wel- 1 come. ~ A Raleigh native, Mansfield has performed at folk festivals and in concerts across the Southeast, from Miami to the Blue Ridge Parkway. He has shared the stage with such greats as Wade Mainer, Doc Watson, The Red Clay Ramblers, and Snuffy Jenkins. His music has been included in several recording anthologies. In 1987, his first al- bum, Root Hog or Die, was re- leased to critical acclaim. "In America as a whole, and the South in particular, I see change taking place all around me at an ever-increasing rate,” said Mansfield. "Even the music on the radio changes all the time -- they have a new "Top 40" every week. This homemade music is more sta- ble. It helps me keep in touch with who I am. It reminds me of where I'm from." Mansfield's appearance at Gaston College is a Visiting Artist exchange between Kevin Ayesh - and Mansfield and is made possi- ble by the North Carolina Visiting Artist Program. HEAD START HEALTH FAIR-A seatbelt dummy entertained kids attending the Cleveland County Head Start Health Fair recent- ly but he's no dummy when he gives them information about the im- portance of buckling up to save lives.
