The co-ordinator began work July 16, 1973 and July, 1974 is fast approaching. In July, 1974 there were 60 pages of a proposal, a co ordinator and a 4-C Council which has already been working a year on the proposal. After much initial distress at locating suitable buildings for offices and centers the project began to take shape. In September staff were hired and centers opened. With a commitment to work closely with the community, the FIVE HAPPY FISHERMEN are pictured above displaying their catches Saturday morning at Cherokee Lake in Tennessee.

Bicentennial Committe Makes Plans For Future A monthly meeting of the Mars Hill Task Force of the Madison County Bi-Centennial Committee was held on June 11th in the Mars Hill Town Hall. Mrs. Richard Hoffman chaired the meeting. Dr. Evelyn Underwood reported on the difficulties in gaining tax exempt status for the committee. A brain storming session took place prompting much discussion of possibilities for paint up fix up projects as well as physical changes which are all ready taking place and how best to cope with these. A two hundred year old tree in the main block of the town may be lost to the new high way.

Initial instructive visits by the state day care con sultants allowed us to meet this requirements. All centers are now certified and in fact have received glowing reports from the day care consultants in regard to curriculum, arrangement of equipment and staff.

Moving beyond projects and techniques, the Horwitzes evoke the life of the mountain people. The camera has captured their faces and their environment; they reveal themselves in their accounts of their lives - sometimes humorous, often grim. The crafts-people and their work are presented in the context of the past, as they exist today, and with a view toward the future in the light of the current crafts revival.

The con sultant for School Food Ser vices has also visited and found that our centers were well within established guidelines for nutrition to qualify for School Food Ser vice reimbursement. Since, according to budget cuts, we would have lost the nutritionist, a special project request was sought from the state Department of Social Services to fund a nutritionist -food service supervisor for the county.

In May this co-ordinator Sale Director Counseling Center At The Counseling Center at Mars Hill College, which serves a student body of 1500, has a new director. He is Richard E. Sale, an alumnus of the school from its junior college days whose un dergraduate studies were completed in psychology and education at Baylor University. Although Mars Hill has had a Counseling Center for several years, drastic changes in its operation are an ticipated under the guidance of Sale, an experienced counselor and teacher. "We will establish a multiple purpose program," he explained, "which will be somewhat different from what has been offered in the past. Crisis counseling as well as vocational, academic, placement and personal counseling will be available along with a complete program of testing for students who want and need it." Sale received his master's degree this year from West Georgia College in CarroUton. For the past three years he has been teacher, counselor and chairman of the ' Behavioral Science ' Depart ment of Newnan High School in Newnan, Ga. In addition, he has served as associate executive director of the state YMCA of Georgia, an English teacher in the Tift, Ga., County High School, director of education and youth at the First Baptist Church of Tifton, Ga., and director of recreation and youth activities at Capitol View Baptist Church of Atlanta. A Richmond, Va., native, he has also studied at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, Springfield College in Massachusetts and Georgia State University in Atlanta. He is a member of the National Educational Association and has been active in the Kiwanis Club, being a director, vice president, and president-elect of the Newnan club. Sale is chairman of the Georgia Key Clubs, a high school service organization sponsored by Kiwanis, a Youth and Drug Counselor for County Law Enforcement as well as a certified professional director of the National Council of YMCA's. Located in the new $1.2 million Wren College Union, the Counseling Center will house a testing cernter, a library of graduate school catalogs and personal evaluation books, and several counseling offices. However, Sale commented, "I expect to do a great deal of counseling away from the office, under a tree, off campus, or wherever the need arises. I'm not necessarily an office-oriented person." 4-C Children Enjoy Trip To Asheville Zoo On Wednesday, Jim IS, the Madison County 4-C Project took aO three day cart centers . oa aa outing to the Asheville Zoo. . - i The children , left their respective centers about 1:4a and arrived at the Zoo about II a.m. After a morning snack the children toured the Zoo.
