PINEVHXE (ENS) Individualized instruction is me only-way a teacher can be sure that any student is receiving in the areas he needs.

With an average or above average student this individualization of instruction may be devised and implemented too much difficulty since these students are refining skills not developing them. However, how does one individualize instruction for a student has riot developed even the basic reading skills 'necessary to work i Recently a new approach to mis problem has been introduced by the National Reading Center under the Right to Read program. This approach involves the use of community volunteers who serve on a one-to-one basis with students needing help basic reading skills. By 1980 the Right to Read program hopes to have 200,000 volunteers across the United States involved in teaching reading to public school students the goal of eradicating alTilliteracy in people under 2i years of age. An experimental volunteer program has been started -in the basic reading course of-the English program at Pineville High School.

Recruited by asking students if they know-of any one interested in such ai program; four volunteers now working four days a.week with students having severe reading problems. The goal of the volunteers is to reading level of the students up to the level of materials that can be used on a elasswide Concerning the program, Charles Mulkey, a i instructor says, "I am very- pleased with the outcome of this program. Several students who have the program of looking only at part of the word came back to the regular class with this problem overcome. Many of my students have problems with phonics and this is where me volunteers have been par- ticularly helpful Despite the fact that phonics instructions are not included in aH the different materials the volunteers are using, students come back to class knowing me basics in phonics. I attribute this to the fact that when a weakness in phonics has become obvious the volunteer can immediately devise exercises to remedy it" Mrs.

Frieda Kelsay, a volunteer, commented, "I was shocked to learn, that children of this age could not read. Also, I am finding the work very rewarding." Other volunteers are. Miss Rita Taliaferro, Pam Stanley and Mrs. Eula Bowling. Program Presented By Mrs.

and Mrs. Milam purchased the orginal house from Reese N. Milam who had built the structure 'from logs cut and hewn on the property where it now stands. Grattori Milam was a former assessor and deputy sheriff and died in August, 1913. Following his death, the house was sold t6 the late James H.

Webb and Mrs. Addie Webb, who survives, and she then sold the house back to Mrs. Lovell 1969, keeping part of the original tract on which her home now stands. From 1969 until now, and with other projects under way, Mrs. Lovell had in 1 1 remodeled the old house, yet keeping the rooms, their arrangements in the house, the doors and windows as much as in the.

old house, but replacing them with modern storm windows. The major change is the front porch. The original house had a smaller porch, with another porch on top coming out of the second story of house. It was trimmed in witn new windows piacea in me same place as the original ones. The front door was redone, putting back in the two sidelights which had been removed.

The outside of the house is now aluminum siding, white and a metal roof, as much the same as the original one, has been installed. Inside, on the first floor, as you enter, there is a small "vestibule" or two-way entry which leads to the living room or to a bedroom. These rooms are the original pattern, with wallpaper and paneling placed over tiie surfaces which were not salvageable, however, much of the ceilings are still the narrow exposed boards of the original ceiling. Some of the rooms have been covered with ceiling tile, particularly the upstairs which had remained unfinished for so many years. A bathroom placed on one end of the old back porch is the only addition downstairs, and it 'did not change the original outside structure of the building.
