"The Metric System”
has been selected as the
general topic for the an
nual program of the year
conducted In February by
the chapters of The Na-
tlonsU Secretaries Associa
tion (Internatlonsil).
Locally, the Splndlette
CSiapter of NSA has sched
uled Its metric program
for Tuesday night at 7 p. m.
at Gastonia's Holiday Inn.
According to Mary
Solomon, president-elect,
who Is secretary to Ralph
L. Young, Wlx Corpora
tion, the educational
meeting will feature Don
McGinnis, math-science
supervisor, Gaston County
School System as speaker.
Commenting on the
subject's Importance,
Beverly H. Hamby, CPS,
International President,
NSA, who is secretary to
Albert S. Golemon, FAIA,
Golemon and Rolfe Archi
tects, Houston, states:
"Whether gradual or
sudden, the conversion to a
new system such as the
changeover from U. S.
customary weights and
measures to decimal-
based metrics becomes the
professional secretary's
responsibility to leant and
master. Secretaries are
going to have to think
metric and write metric
fluently and accurately.
"Domestic use of the
metric system requires
basic adjustments In office
methods and procedures.
This Involves different
terminology for letter Jar-
gins, paper and envelope
sixes, and type faces. Even
that old familiar desk
standby, the three hole
punch, will be replaced by
a four hole punch."
