- /Stmth Robeson Mustangs:
- * The Championship Season
'.'/?South Robeson High
:&Wril admit it: until I
got caught up in the champi
onship season of the South
Robeson Mustangs, I had
never been on the campus of
South Robeson High School.
1 am one of those who have
; hot forgotten the tradition
aiid feeling of neighborhood
schools. And I have had a
luted time shucking my seg
regated past My memories
are the Robeson County
Indian High School basket
hall tournaments, and Ran
dall Chavis curveballs, and
; Benson Locklear and Forace
; Oiendine fastballs. And Ho
? raice Hunt scooting about on
the baseball field and on the
basketball hardwood floor,
clunking in long distance
bombers. I remember the
fierceness of competition
between Fairgrove, Magno
lia, Pembroke and Prospect
no matter what the sport
season. As I recall it the
gyms and baseball seats
were always packed. And
Indian people rooted madly
for their home team.
Then came West Robeson,
East Robeson and South
Robeson. The remnants of
our determined effort to
oveifern double votfbg, and
other evils. In a way, many
of us felt betrayed. And
uiiics wvuiu never uc as uicjr
had been. All that was left
was the memories.
But the South Robeson
Mustangs, the charges of
coach Russell Stone, caught
my fancy. I was intrigued as
Jerome Hunt, Marlon Hunt,
the Quick boys and the rest
of the Mustangs began their
jaunt through this champion
ship season. I began to
follow them in the local
sports pages, and root for
them as they won one
impossible game after ano
ther. I began to note the
effusive nature of Marlon
Hunt, an 11th grader who
doubles at shortstop and
pitches with the heart of a
lion. And Jerome Hunt,
, unshakable in his determina
tion. I liked his demeanor,
I
(us fierceness as a wiii|*u
tor. I was won over.
And when Bessemer City
came to South Robeson "last
week to vy with them in a
three game series for the
N.C. 2A baseball high school
championship, I was swept
along by their exploits. I
decided to attend the games,
and I am glad I did.
Hie school is located a few
miles from Rowland, and
combined former Rowland
and Fairgrove High Schools
into the new entity a few
years ago. The school is
clean, and the grounds spa
cious and well kept
Hie series began last
Wednesday, and Jerome
Hunt pitched his heart out
only to come up short on a
2-1 score. But I was impres
sed by his determination,
and his high hard one.
Bessemer City continued
their winning ways, upping
their spotless record to 25-0.
Hie wanning pitcher was
Mark Toney, an imposing
curve bailer.
But South Robeson jump
ed on Bessemer City early
last Hiursday night scoring
two runs in the top of the
first and Marlon Hunt pit
ched a six-hitter as the
Mustangs prevailed 4-3.
Hi at set the stage for the
deciding.'game last Friday
night and the opposing
pitchers were the determin

imposing Mark Toney who
entered the game with a 15-0
record. Jt
It was a nail biting,
exciting game. And Jerome
Hunt, who was named most
valuable player, hung on for
a spine tingling 4-3 win and
the state 2A baseball cham
pionship for the South Robe
son Mustangs.
It was truly a champion
ship game and season, and
you can put me down
henceforth as a South Robe
son Mustang booster. And I
became a life long follower
of Jerome Hunt and Marlon
Hunt, and the rest of the
Mustangs. I wish them the
best, and compliment them
on their championship sea
son. Go Mustangs!

Keeping Cool
By Design
Tasteful interior design not only makes
your home attractive, it can help keep you
cool on hot days. Here are a few low-cost
suggestions for keeping cool in the sum
mer:
?Cover your sofa and chairs with light
colored sheets or slipcovers-dark
_ upholstery absorbs heat.
?Remove heavy drapes, and use only
blinds and shades on windows Keep
these coverings closed on sunny days,
especially on the sunny side of your
house. Solar screens and awnings on win
dows are additional heat blockers
?In rooms where you don't need to open
windows, keep storm windows closed,
too, in order to keep hot air outdoors.
?Open windows from both the bottom
and the top. In a multi-story house, open
windows on each floor to pull cool air in
side on the ground floor and push warm
air outside on the top floors.
?Provide good ventilation in your attic so
that air. which can reach 180 degrees
Farenheit on hot days, can escape. An ex
haust fan or turbine fan will help
?Choose light-colored shingles for your
roof if you live in a hot climate They
reflect more of the sun's heat than dark
shingles

Degree Tap Priority f or
Computer Whiz
His teachers say they've
never had a student quite
like him before.
They says he's quiet and
polite. Shy to a point.
And they say he's an
excellent student with an
exceptional background in
computers.
With enough background,
in fact, that he has already
passed proficiency exams in
four courses that will even
tually lead him to an associ
ate degree in business com
puter programming.
No on*., to Sarah Britt's
knowledge, has ever earned
that much eredit through
examination in the business
department, which she co
chairs.
Yet, no one with Randall
Peters' qualifications has
passed her way either.
ftiat's because Peteri
comes to Robeson Technical
College with a resume of
experience that is seldom
seen on the school ciirr'.is.
Although Peters has had a
significant amount of acade
mic training, getting a de
gree was not nearly as
important as getting th"
hands-on experience.
Until BO*. V
"Tvt done things a bit
backward." admits fVter*
who has been a computer
buff ever since a field trip to
I the computer center at th$
University of Califortiia a{
Los Angeles (UCLA) during
his junior year in high school
in San Pedro, Calif. ,?
Peters is a programmed
analyst in the data process
ing department at Southeas
tern General Hospital in
Lumberton. He's learned
about computers here and
there, at different schools, ait
different jobs, yet he has not
stayed in one place long
enough to be properly recog
nized by an educational
institution for work he has
completed.
He hopes that changes
sometime this year. He's
