Book A Trip To Africa Have you ever wanted to visit Africa? Have you ever dreamed of watching a herd of elephants in their natural habitat, or a herd of gi- raffes galloping across the grass lands? Do African children study the same things in school as American children, and what games to they play? This summer you can "Book a Trip to Africa" at Mauney Memorial Library, and read your way through this mysterious and fascinating continent on the other side of the world. The kick off program and regis- tration will be held Tuesday, June 12, at 10:30 a.m. Students from three years of age through junior high school and register for the Summer Reading Club at that time.

Pre-school children will receive credit for books read to them, and the parent will be respon- sible for keeping his log. Guest speaker will be Moses Neuman, from Nigeria, Africa. Neuman will talk about his country and share some of its folklore, customs and ideology. He will display some in- teresting art and carvings, as well as model the traditional costume of Nigeria.

Voc Ed Works With Drafting Drafting at Kings Mountain High School is a process in which all the information needed to create a prod- uct or structure is drawn on paper or a computer screen. The essential de- tails for building or manufacturing are communicated in pictures. Why use drafting? Because it is cheaper to make mistakes on paper or a computer screen than to cut and fit wood or metal. As industries continue to grow and become more cost conscious, the demand for drafting technicians will also in- crease. The Technical Drafting Program at Kings Mountain High School can prepare a student for a position as a drafting technician or as a base for further training as an architect. Engineers also have to gain knowl- edge in drafting and design. During the first year of drafting at KMHS, the students will gain a knowledge of basic drafting and will also get a brief preview of each option taught: mechanical and ar- chitectural training. In mechanical drafting the stu- dents learn skills required for the re- lated fields of mechanical drafting. Areas such as structural, machinery, casting, forging, and extrusion drawings will be studied. The stu- dent studies a wide variety of topics such as process piping, dimension- ing and tolerancing, product design, computer graphics, manufacturing processes, aerospace, and related mechanical design factors involving computer assisted drafting. Contractors, engineers, architects and building material manufacturers all have one thing in common--a need for architectural drafting. Instruction is given in various types of architectural working drawing, structural drawings, electrical, plumbing, air conditioning and pro- cess piping drawings and computer drafting. A basic understanding of build- ing construction, surveying and electricity is obtained in the course. Through the drafting program employment can be gained in ma- chine shops, manufacturing plants, contractors, architects or with an engineering firm. The students are invited to be- long to a professional student orga- nization. The Vocational Industrial Clubs of America is a national youth organization. The student gains self confidence by working with other students, increases knowledge and skills needed for employment and leadership abili- ties. Local, regional and state com- petition is held to give the student a chance to prove his knowledge. The winners from state advance to na- tional competition. Students partici- pating in the various skills competi- tion stand a better chance to gain employment. The class also partici- pates in local and community activi- ties. learning about different countries, we can foster a better understanding among the peoples of the world. The Summer Reading Club will continue for eight weeks with grad- ed classes, including pre-schoolers on Wednesday at 10:30 a.m., teens on Wednesday afternoons at 3 p.m., primaries on Thursdays at 10:30 a.m., and juniors on Thursday at 3 p.m. Prizes will be distributed © throughout the summer as incen- tives for reading. Many special activities have been planned for the summer. One of the most exciting activities will be the pen-pal exchange. We will have the names and addresses of some children in Africa, and student sin the Summer Reading Club will have an opportunity to write some- one in his own age in Africa and learn first hand about a foreign cul- ture and way of life. For the teens, we also have a lot of exciting things planned. In addi- tion to the classes son Wednesday afternoons, junior high students may also act as volunteers to assist in the classes of younger children, and perform other duties for the Summer Reading Club. A staff of volunteers is already busy with preparing materials for the summer and setting up displays. Puppetry will play an important part in the summer activities. They will be used in all classes, but the junior high class will make a set of animal puppets and put on a play at the party which will end the sum- mer program. They will also per- form at other locations, such as the Convalescent Center. The safari at the end of the sum- mer will be held August 7 at 3 p.m. At that time certificates and prizes will be awarded.
