' ' Coaches Warned N.C. Coastline BEAUFORT Morehead Citv.. A group of people interested in doing something for children during the summer got together here and formed again this year the Carteret County Summer School for Children. The program is unique in that it is not sponsored by any government or private education unit. It started as a parent movement and is still pretty much the same. '' Children had the opportunity to sign up for six three-hour sessions on either birds, insects, seashells, beginning or intermediate seashore life. A lot of the sessions were outside in the field looking around, seeing what the kids could find and why they found it where they did. Ecology. Teachers were volunteers with qualifications from their profession, hobby, or interests. They were paid a nominal salary. But one probably spoke for all, "it was a good excuse to get outside," The program was organized in the late 1950's by a group of Carteret parents, primarily scientifically-orients. It continued through the years until the late 10's when a federally funded marine science program came to the county and more or less took it over. When that program expired in 1971, concerned parents got together and said let's see if we do it again, according to Dr. Sandra Woods, program director. The program was not active last summer, but this summer 73 students were . enrolled. Dr. Woods was encouraged with the results and has big ideas for the future. She would like to see enrollment mushroom and emphasis expand into other areas, such as botany, and see the summer school have permanent classrooms and equipment. .

List Your Property With William F. Ainsley Realtor Hertford, N.C Dial 426-7659 Of Over Heating High school football practice begins around August 7 over ' most of the State. And with the heat and' humidity still at summer heights, high school football coaches and trainers are urged to be on the lookout for signs of heat illness in their players. ; : . 'With football practice starting at the height of summer temperatures," 'says Al Proctor, Coordinator of Sports Medicine for the Department of Public instruction, "it is essential to provide gradual conditioning to hot weather activity and to watch carefully for signs of lethargy, inattention, stupor, awkwardness, or unusual fatigue in players." Proctor notes that one of the most common heat illnesses is the heat stroke, which occurs when the body loses the ability to sweat. "We don't know all the causes of heat stroke," says Proctor, "but it is believed that lack of acclimation to extreme heat and humidity has as much to do with it as anything." - What can a coach do to protect his athletes from heat illnesses? "We are offering several suggestions to coaches across the State," says Proctor. "First, a coach should require a careful medical history and physical examination on each player before allowing him to practice. Workouts should be scheduled during the cooler morning and early evening hours and players should be acclimated to the heat by graduated practice schedules. Proctor adds that players should also have rest periods of 15 to 20 minutes during workouts of an hour or more. According to Proctor, the. clothing worn during practice can make a big difference. Schools should provide clothing that is white to reflect heat, and brief, loose, and comfortable to permit heat escape. Clothing should also be permeable to allow heat loss by sweat evaporation. ".
