Now You'll Be Able To Tell Them Apart
Woods Twins Excel In School
For 12 years students and teach-
ers in the Kings Mountain District
Schools have been ‘seeing double.
After they graduate, Adrienne and
Angela Woods, identical twins, are
going off to college miles apart.
Adrienne has a $12,000 a year
renewable scholarship to attend
Dartmouth University in New
Hampshire to study economics.
Angela, a National Merit
Scholar, has a grant to study
English or history at William and
Mary College in Williamsburg, Va.
She has also received a $2,000 a
year scholarship from Dun and
Bradstreet and a $500 scholarship
from Delta Sigma Theta sorority.
She wants to be a corporate lawyer.
When Adrienne and Angela first
enrolled in Kindergarten at East
School the teachers and students
could not tell them apart and they
wore name tags for several years.
At Central School Angela started
wearing glasses. Ninth grade
brought an even bigger change.
Angela straightened her hair and
Adrienne kept the curly look.
Teachers continued to have a hard
time distinguishing between the
two girls because they dressed
alike. Adrienne finally showed
them how to tell the difference.
"I'm Adrienne, I don't wear glass-
eS
Going to college will mean a
new wardrobe for the girls, which
they are looking forward to.
"We've worn each other's clothes
all our lives and I'll have to have
some more winter clothes because
it will be cold in New Hampshire,"
said Adrienne.
It took their close friends several

look like triplets. Erica is graduat-
ing from St. Andrew's College this
year with major in biology. She
