Diving Course At KMHS A five-week PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) Open Water Scuba Course is being held at the Kings Mountain Community Center and at Neisler Natatorium on the campus of Kings Mountain High School. The course, which includes classroom and pool work, is held over a five-week period here, plus one weekend when students go to one of the Florida springs for their weekend certification dive. Students who participate in the course earn a lifetime certification allowing the diver to buy or rent equipment, have scuba tanks re- filled or participate in other classes to expand their experience and knowledge. Instructors say winter is an ex- cellent time to take scuba diving because other activities have slowed down. PADI certifies over 300,000 divers a year. PADI teaches recre- ational diving after which the divers can take advance courses such as open water diving and res- cue diving. Junior Varsity Plays At Shelby Thursday Kings Mountain High's junior varsity football team had an unex- pected open date last week and will resume its schedule tonight at 7 p-m. at Shelby. The Mountaineers; 5-1, were scheduled to host Burns last Thursday but the heavy rains forced cancellation. Therefore, the Mountaineers have completed their home sched- ule and will play their final two games on the road. The Mountaineers close out their sea- son next Thursday at East Rutherford. Kings Mountain is 2-0 against conference opponents while Shelby is 2-1 with its only loss to unde- feated East Rutherford. If the Mountaineers are success- ful in defeating Shelby tonight, they will battle East Rutherford for the mythical junior varsity champi- onship for the third year in a row. Kings Mountain's conference wins were over R-S Central and South Point. Their only loss was a non-conference game to Morganton Freedom.
