Jim Hunt's I administration has devised "The I Governor's Showcase of Solar & Homes" to give the average North (Carolinian a chance to see solar energy at work. | The Showcase for this region will J feature the home of Claude and Annie Thomas located about one c mile from Red Springs along with i two homes in Fayetteville. one in [ Dublin and four others south of Whitevile toward Wilmington. I* For four days in February, the Thomas home will open to public inspection. The dates are February 20-21 and 27-28. The home will open from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturdays and I p.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Sundays. Directional signs will be erected to help in location. Jointly sponsored by the North Carolina Energy Division and the ^ state's Alternative Energy Corpora 'ion. the Showcase was set up to show the public that solar energv both active and passive applica tions?has come of ^ge. "One of our primary goals is to show people that solar homes don't have to be expensive or exotic." said John Manuel of the NC Energy Division. Solar is an energy source that almost any homeow ner can use in this day of soaring utility bills. Manuel continued: "The Thom as home is a fine example of what passive solar energy can accomp lish. 1.400 square feet built in a conventional manner for S48.500 with 12 months of heating and cooling for S 1 31 . JS. And that doesn't count the tax savings under the solar energy credits." The Governor's Showcase of Solar Homes has progressed across the state in the last few months, beginning in the far west. Some of the homes hae drawn curious homebuilders and potential homc buvers. But all have excited scores about the prospects of solar energy. for all interested Seni tww cwunni.

President Reagan an nounced his decision to continue peacetime Selective Service regis tration. With the removal of any linger ing doubts as to the future of the registration program, the President expressed confidence that young men of registration age will comply with the requirement. The requirement to register applies to U.S. citizens, and to aliens residing in the United States, born on or after January I. I960. Men born in l%0 and 19bl were scheduled to register during July 1980; men born in 19b2 were scheduled to register in January 1981; those born in 19b.l were scheduled to be registered through out 1981 as they reached age 18. Men born in 19f>4 should register within .10 days of their 18th birthday. They may register with Selective Service at any U.S. Post Office. Late registrations are being ac cepted. In announcing his decision, the President delcared a grace period during which late regis tration would be accepted without penalty. That grace period extends throughout February 28. 1982. During that period, anyone who uas scheduled to register previous ly. but has not yet done so. may register without fear of prosecution for late registration. The forms are available at all post offices. After February 28. and after identifying the names of those persons who registered during the grace period. Selective Service will carry out a program of full com pliance with the registration law. The Department of Justice, in coordination with the Selective Service system, will initiate ap propriate enforcement action. As one of several means of calling attention to the registration requirement, the Selective Service system is continuing to make available for public inspection, lists of registrants and their tentative local board assignments. This is in keeping with the intent of selective service that its procedures be open to the public. Most lists will be posted at county courthouses and city halls. The lists cover registration pro cessed through September 30, 1981, and include men born in I960, I9f>! . 1962, and 1963. Local board assignments are arranged by Zip Code based upon (he registrant's permanent address.
