Space-age Technology
Set For Georgia Schools
ATLANTA (PRN)
Spaceage technology is
coming to ‘selected Georgia
school systems for the first
time this fall.
Georgia is leading the
nation by starting a program
in which high school students
will receive instruction in their
industrial arts classes showing
the relationship of the
aerospace industry to the
various subject areas of the
industrial arts such as drafting
and design, power, electronics,
metals, graphic arts and
woods.
“One of the first space
snots had to be postponed,”
says Raymond S. Ginn Jr.,
consultant in industrial arts
education for the Georgia
Department of Education,
“because there was not a
diesel mechanic available to do
a repair job.
“If we are to do our job in
industrial arts education,
which is to interpert American
industry to the high school
student so that he can select
his proper job spot, then we
cannot afford to neglect any
area of American industry.
And that certainly goes for the
aerospace industry, which is
one of our biggest.”
The present program was

consultants to help prepare
the curriculum.
School systems which will
begin using the curriculum this
fall are: Bibb County, Bulloch

“Old-timers”
Will Play At
Atlanta Stadiun
The American League will
have three Hall of Earners and

Yankee teams, but the
National league will counter
with an “all .300 hitters”
outfield in the second annual
Old-Timers Game July 13th at
Atianta-Stadium.
The “American League
Old-Timers” play the

and Henry ‘Heinie’ Manush are
the members of Baseball’s Hall
of Fame who will play for the

his 20 years with the White
Sox, 1930-50.
Dickey was the Yankees’
power-hitting catcher for 16
years, hitting over .300 eleven
times between 1928 and 1943.
Manush finished his 17-year

SAVANNAH—FederaI officials will be in Savannah for two days, Monday and Tuesday,
Ju y 15 ’ 16, to interview men and women for highly specialized civilian work in South Vietnam.
These officials, from the Agency for International Development (A.1.D.), which is a branch
of the United States Department of State, are seeking professional and technical skills that
are in short supply even after filling many vacancies with personnel transferred from A.I D
missions around the world.
John Metelsky, Public Affairs officer of the Vietnam Bureau of A.I.D. said the Agency
seeds workers in the following categories: Assistant Area Development Officers, Refugee Relief
Officers, Nurse Education Advisors, Nurse Anesthetists, Auditors and Public Safety Advisors.
Metelsky said the salaries for the positions range from $6,500 to a top of $15,000, plus a
25 percent hardship pay bonus for work in South Vietnam itself, furnished quarters, medical
care, family allowances, and vacation and sick leave.
Candidates for these posts must be willing to be separated from their families for at least
IB months and may be assigned to possibly hazardous areas of South Vietnam. They will have
leave privileges every six months to visit their families.
"In spite of the dangers connected with these positions,” Metelsky said, “the need for civi
lian workers to take part in the nation-building program in Vietnam is as great as ever. There
is also a humanitarian need. A.I.D. medical terms are treating 295,000 patients a month in Viet
nam and have given more than 17,500,000 inoculations to protect the population against cholera
plague, malaria and smallpox.”
Pointing to the need for Assistant Area Development Officers, Refugee Relief Officers and
Public Safety Advisors, Metelsky said A.I.D. personnel have helped take care of millions of
refugees and persons displaced by the military activity. With the fighting continuing, Metel
sky said there is still a great need for this type of specialist.
He added that auditors are required to keep a constant check on the flow of AI D ma
terials and to take every precaution against their diversion in unauthorized channels

FEMININE FISHING FUN
When my wife, Barbara, advised me she wanted to learn how
to fish I greeted the news with a certain lack of enthusiasm. If
teaching her the art of angling was to be anything like teaching
her to drive — forget it. But two factors convinced me that I had
to try. First was the national trend toward increased participation
by women in man’s favorite outdoor sport. Today, nearly 30 per
cent of the 30 million fishing folks in the U.S. are ladies. Second,
Barbara declared that if she couldn’t share the thrill of a catch,
her kitchen would be closed to any delicious string of fish I
might bring home.
I learned a few things about exposing a neophyte to fishing
while taking my sons on their'early outings. The initial trip must
be comfortable and successful.
On a warm, sunny Saturday morning in May, Barbara and I
made the short drive from our home to nearby Sprout Lake in
Peekskill, New York. This quiet, sheltered pond, surrounded by
lush shade trees, held an abundant supply of panfish — yellow
perch, blue gill, crappie.
For Barbara, I selected an Abu-Matic 120 spincasting reel filled
with 8-lb. test Bonnyl, and a Conolon 2524 light action rod. Such
light, easy-to-use and easy-to-maintain tackle is largely responsible
for the tremendous influx of women to fishing.
For myself, I chose a Mitchell 408 fast retrieve spinning reel
with 6-lb test Bonnyl and a Conolon 2503 rod. This ultra-light
rig would turn those panfish in-
to respectable gamefish for me.
Barbara and I discussed the
operation of her tackle the
night before, and after a few
apprehensive casts she relaxed
and felt quite secure with her
pushbutton reel. So far. so
good. Next. I introduced her to
our bait — worms.
Being the mother of two boys
who have brought home for
"adoption" every species of
animal and insect that crossed
their paths. Barbara was not
disturbed by a face - to • face
meeting with a garden variety
worm. After one lesson she could bait a hook with the most
seasoned angler. All that remained now was to catch a fish.
Barbara began casting from shore, retrieving very slowly. Pan
fish are not rapid swimmers, and quick movements scare them.
King Neptune, or Izaak Walton, or both, must have been smiling
down at us that day. Within five minutes a small, but ambitious
yellow perch took the bait But he w r as no match for my deter
mined student.
Once she stopped jumping up and down, Barbara held the
perch in her hands and stared at it. "Fishing fever” had struck
again. She landed three more panfish before we called it a morn
ing. For the rest of the day. Barbara was on the phone recounting
to her friends every cast she made.
I had been so busy watching Barbara, I never picked up my
rod and reel. Still, it was one of the most rewarding outings in
memory. After all, how often do you develop a lifelong fishing
companion? &
Dick Wolff's useful and unique handbook, "Fishing Tackle ■
and Techniques," is now available to readers of this column ' r he
190 page book is a complete guide to the purchase use and
maintenance of every kind of rod, reel and line for' both salt -
and freshwater fishing. For your copy of "Fishing Tackle and

prove of little value or not
bolster the price of home
