GW gets money BOILING SPRINGS- Gardner- Webb College's Program for the Blind is the recipient of a $3000 contribution by Southern Bell. * The contribution will make pos- sible the purchase of two new pieces of technology to assist visu- ally impaired students - a Braille 'n Speak and a Miniature Electronic Visual Aid. The Braille 'n Speak is a portable talking computer operated by commands entered in Braille on a seven-key Braille keyboard. The device, which costs approximately $900, can be used as a talking computer terminal, a Braille-to- print transcriber, a word processor or a talking calculator. Blind students will carry the Braille n' Speak to their classroom lectures and then transcribe notes for future study. The device will eliminate the time consuming pro- cess of audio recording of lectures, making note-taking much easier for the students. The Miniature Electronic Visual Aid (MEVA) provides a portable magnification system for visually impaired students who have some vision. The hand-held camera transmits a magnified image to a four-inch flat screen CRT monitor. The ME- VA with a price tag of about $2100, will allow students to read their own study materials rather than relying on the services of a personal reader. This gives the stu- dents more independence. COMPETE IN WORLD SERIES - Kings Mountain's 12-year-old girls softball all-star team competed in the World Series last week in Charlotte. Front row, left to right, coach Steve Belt, Kimberly Belt, Shannon Lenham, Amy Pearson, Bethany Jimison, Allene Barron, Rhea Herndon and John Herndon (bat boy). Back row, coach Gary Crisp, Summer Crisp, Riley Nolen, Aimee Carter, Cheryl "Fisher, Catie Brannon, Liza Falls and coach Bill Herndon. Dove season set The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission has set a mourning dove season that begins on Labor Day and includes a 70-day dove season for 1991-92. The Commission also approved a 12-bird daily bag limit and a pos- session limit of 24 birds. Season dates are Sept.. 2-Oct. 5, Nov. 25- 30, and Dec. 13-Jan. 11. The sea- son allows for hunting from half an hour before sunrise to sunset. State wildlife officers will strict- ly enforce state and federal baiting laws, but will not inspect any field at the landholders request to deter- mine whether it is baited for migra- tory game birds. First-time hunting license buyers are reminded they must complete a hunter education course sponsored by the Wildlife Commission before buying a hunting license. Hunter education became mandatory July 1. A person who wishes to buy a hunting license this year must pro- duce an old hunting license, sign a statement that he or she was previ- ously licensed, or show proof of certification in a hunter safety course.

One of his goals is to someday umpire a state tournament. He has » called numerous district events and hopes to be chosen as a member of the umpiring crew for the 1993 dis- trict Dixie Youth tournament which will be held here. Unlike most youth umpires, Anderson has training and holds certification. "Back in 1968 when Roy Pearson was the City Recreation Director, a team of instructors from Gardner-Webb College came down Natatorium. Fee is $10 per month for senior citizens and $15 for oth- ers. DANCE CLASSES - Tap, jazz and ballet classes begin in August at the Community Center. Registration is August 5 from 5-7 p.m. Penny Sanders Abes will be the instructor. ; SOCCER - Soccer registration will be held through August 9 at the Community Center.

"I attended all the classes and was certified to umpire baseball and softball. "I called some junior high base- ball games with the late Devoil Butcher," he went on. "He was a dear friend of mine and taught me a lot. He had a tremendous influ- ence on my career." Butcher, who came to Kings Mountain in the early 1960s to um- pire in the professional Western Carolinas League, lost his life in an automobile accident. While many prospective umpires may laugh at the $10 to $20 a game paid in the little leagues, Anderson says "you don't see me complaining." . But, of course, he wouldn't. He'd do it for nothing!
