Special Olympic Article Wins Upchurch May Award Editor's Note: The Beta Club at Upchurch Junior High School has begun publishing a monthly newspaper, the "Eagle Lookout. " Each month the best article is judg ed and submitted to The News Journal for publication as a reward to the writer and to en courage belter writing, good reporting and creative contribu tions. From the first edition Mary Emily McDonald and Kristel Barefoot were awarded the top honors for this article about Special Olympics for Special People: by Mary Emily McDoaald and Kristel Barefoot "Let me win But if I cannot win Let me be brave in the attempt." This is the motto that 120 athletes competing in the 1982-83 Special Olympics took. Each year Hoke County High School Stadium serves as the Olympic grounds for all excep tional people in the Hoke County school system to compete in the Special Olympics. This event was created and is sponsored by the Joseph P. Ken nedy, Jr. Foundation in Washington, D.C. They supply the medals, ribbons, shirts for the con testants and the events. Each class chooses a name for their teams to represent the school. Some schools have as many as three teams from their school. The classes practice daily a few weeks before the Olympics to "get in shape" for their event. The Olympics are always en joyable and memorable, and this year proved to be no different. The Olympics were held on April 14 this year, and the morning started off cold and gray. To start the Olympics, there was a Parade of Athletes. This parade consisted of the Athletes and the "celebrities" of the parade, who were: E.T., Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog. XH.

Other speakers were: Mr. McAllister, the Superintendent of Hoke County Schools, Rhenda Cameron and Dale Frye, a boxkick champion who recited the oath with the athletes. The flag was raised, the Na tional Anthem was sung, and the torch was lit. Then the athletes warmed up for the events. The competition began and one after another winners were an nounced over the microphone. The events continued until about noon and there was a break for lunch. After lunch the events con tinued on until 1:45. At this time the closing ceremonies, lowering the flag and extinguishing of the flame were held. The athletes got back on their buses and went back to school with their medals, ribbons and anticipa tions for next year's Olympics. Some of the winners will go on to the State Special Olympics and some even farther. Of course, there were some peo ple who didn't win a medal or a ribbon, but everybody won the satisfaction of competing, and the love of the spectators. Correction In the May 19 issue of The News-Journal, it was incorrectly stated that Gary Donnell Love, Red Springs was charged with driv ing under the influence. Love was actually charged with speeding and given a prayer for judgement by District Court Judge Joseph Dupree. We regret the error. Dorothy Bounds What a catch!
