Pumefl Swett High student to attend leadership seminar Dwayne Allen Locklear. ton of Milton and FYeda Lock!ear, has been selected to attend the annual Hugh 0'Brian Leadership Seminar. This program is available to outstanding sophomore students across the United States. The selection process is extremely rigid and limited to a small number of sophomore students. Dwayne lorklear was selected because he is an outstanding student at Puntell Swett High School. The philosophy of the program is simple. Bring together a select group of high school sophomores with demonstrated leadership qualities with a group of distinguished leaders in business ediwtuinn wive merit, and the professions. Through intense but informal discussions, they interact. The young people get a realistic look at what makes America great and a better understanding of our nation's role in the world community. This question-and-answer, give-and-take format helps to teach these sophomores, known as HORY Ambassa dors, to think for themselves. They learn that as individuals they are important-that their thoughts and actions can make a difference. HOBY motivates students by showing them that how to think can be just as important as what to think. ?n'y in Robeson P hiki lW?da> mv lt (he oily fur mm huildine ?u|>|>l iev Ve wmv dHi?|i ihl? hi# >?!> with gund driver* liron*e an (he foreman Udd the hnaanian m arnd mr wilh nw of ihr irueha.
