Page Six THE SALEMITE Thursday, October 16, Bicentennial Projects In 1967 the North Carolina Bi centennial (NCB) was created by the State Legislature to plan and develop programs for the celebra tion of the American Revolution in the State. Within the themes of Heritage, Horizons and Festivals, the NCB encourages the active in volvement of young people in the carrying out of bicentennial goals. Student Projects for the Bicen tennial Celebration offers post secondary education students the opportunity to create their own projects within the framework of the Festivals theme. This theme involves an expanded effort to make North Carolinians more aware of the traditions, the cul ture, the hospitality and the char acter of the State and its people through the arts, education, travel, exhibits, fairs, crafts and festi vals. This program is sponsored by the North Carolina Bicentennial, the National Bicentennial Intern ship Program and the North Carolina Internship Office. Student Bicentennial Projects should: —Be imaginative and feasible; —Meet a public need; —Be related to some aspect of North Carolina’s cultural heritage; —Be related to the Festivals ac tivities of the NCB; —Have local community support; and —Be sanctioned as learning. Projects can also demonstrate they will encourage secondary student populations to contribute to public needs and their own learning. Post-secondary students at senior colleges and universities in the state are eligible to apply. The application form is a de tailed six-page planning guide and it requires thoughtful considera tion and planning in completing. You are encouraged to seek as sistance from local bicentennial groups, interested community resi dents and college faculty members in developing your proposal. The NCIO staff is available to provide technical assistance if it is needed. They can be reached at (919) 829-5966.

"Don't forget! Ellery Queen solves another mystery tonight at 9 on Channel 12." WRA OUTING By Peggy Erickson The WRA outing to Linville Falls on October 4 was no big adventure. Instead, it was a day of quiet solitude and peace. We did not rough it in the wilderness; the refectory supplied us with the most essential item of civilized life — good food! (We thank them). And the only excitement of the day occurred when Donna Dismuke and Darcy Camp sighted a huge snake. Linville Falls is about two hours west of Winston-Salem. But it took us longer to get there be cause we rode on the Blueridge Parkway at our leisure. The twelve of us, including Mrs. Cashen and her “date”, the two foreign students, Barbre and Francien, Barbara Albury from the Bahamas and Barbara Boykin from Florida, neither of whom had ever seen mountains, and Ginger, Denise Frizzel’s dog, took off from Salem about 9:30 a.m. After ar riving at Linville we ate and then split into pairs and triplets to ex plore and hike. Several of us drove to Wiesmann’s View over looking the deep Linville gorge. The cool air felt exhilarating and the view of the mountains covered with different colors was awe some. Talking seemed to disturb the silence, so we did not do much of it. We met back at the cars at 4:30, exchanged stories, ate again, and then drove home. It had not been a strenuous, back breaking day. Perhaps, on our next outing, we will tackle a more rugged path. Whatever we do, please join us. It is a good way to spend a Saturday.
