Sewing your own wedding gown can
save money and provide a gown (hat is
uniquely yours.
Start sewing for the wedding day as
early as possible and learn what con­
struction techniques are best for your
fabric. Working with special fabrics
will take more time and thought than
Traditional bridal fabrics include
sheet fabrics like organza, organdy,
voile, and chiffon, dull luster and slip­
per satins; and alencon, chantilly, and
Venetian laces.
For sheer fabrics, underline see-
through areas to make those parts of
the garment less transparent and more
durable. Be sure that the underlining
fabric is compatible in care and
sewability with the outer fabric.
When sewing sheer fabrics, take time
to sew perfect seams, seam finishes,
closures and hems as these details are
visible. French seams or self-bound
seams look finished and are small and
inconspicuous. Tissue paper otf one or
both sides of the seams will help the
sewing machine handle the fabric in
neat seams
Hand basting may be
necessary if the fabric is slippery.
For satin, remember that the shine
comes from smoothness.
A void
wrinkling, snagging, or puncturing it
with misplaced pins or stitches. A test
garment to check the fit o f the pattern
would be wise since altering a satin
garment is impossible.
Satin should be underlined to reduce
pull on the seams and prevent imprints
of seam allowances on the right side.
Cut out satin garments using the “ with
nap" layout on the pattern and keep
fine silk pins within the seam allowan
ces.
Be sure to mark the underlining
rather than the satin, and handle satin
as little as possible throughout the con­
struction. It is recommended to test
construction techniques on samples o f
the fabric before applying them to the
garment.
Laces require many special construe-
p re s e n ts
N A A B A V E can effectively bring many
problems to closure and provide an ex­
perimental and rational basis for in­
creasing Black participation at all
levels o f vocatio n al education,
especially in administration and leader­
ship positions.
Group topics at this conference
were; (1) “ The Critical Issues o f Con­
ceptualizing Legislating, and Im ­
plementing New Vocational Education
Programs Responsive to the Needs o f
Black Americans,” (2) “ Recruitment
and Retention o f Black Students in

The keynote speaker fo r the
N A A B A V E Conference was The
Honorable Shirley Chisholm, U .S .
House o f Representatives, Her topic
S A L E M - Each year more than
370,000 kids between the ages o f ten
and seventeen are treated in hospital
emergency rooms for ir.juries resulting
from skateboard accidents A t least 98
percent o f these injuries could be
•v o id e d by using basic safety
precautions, according to the U.S.
C onsum er Product Safety C o m ­
mission.
I f you’re one o f the twenty million
Americans who test their skills surfing
on concrete or are the parent o f a
skateboard acrobat, here are some
safety pointers from the Oregon Con­
sumer Services Division.
1. Buy a board at a reliable store;
beware o f cheap or used boards. Test
your weight and foot size on the board.
The deck should have a non-slip sur­
face. Ask the salesperson which wheel
fits your style. Get instructions on the
care o f your board and get the
manufacturer's address or guarantee
2. W ear full protective gear in­
cluding a helmet. Pad your clothes at
the knees, elbows and hips and either
buy special gloves or pad some gloves
or mittens. Wear good traction shoes.
Remember, you can achieve speeds up
to 50 m .p.h. on a skateboard.
3. Practice falling and rolling before
getting aboard a board.
T o fall
“ correctly,” get in a tuck position
(elbows in), roll on your hips or
shoulders and tuck your face under
vour arms. Never try to break your fall
with straight arms or knees. Wrists
shatter, so do elbows.
4. Check your board everytime you
skate. Be sure nuts and bolts are tight
and that no cracks are developing in
the board or wheels.
D on’t ride
someone else’» board.
5. W arm up with stretching exercises
and knee and back bends before taking
your first run. Stop skating and rest
when you become tired.
6. Avoid skateboarding in heavily
traveled streets or through intersec­
tions. Check your route for cracks and
debris before starting.
The Safety Commission reported 25
deaths from skateboard-related in­
juries from February, 1975 through
July, 1977. A ll the victims either fell
from the board and struck their heads
or were struck by cars while riding their
boards.
One-third o f all persons injured on
skateboards had been skating for less
than one week and one out o f three ac­
cidents occurred when skateboards
struck irregularities in the riding sur­
face. Only two percent o f all injuries
were attributed to the skateboard it­
self.

Unless you are a knowledgeable seam­
stress with several reference books on
sew ing with lace, stick to lace trims and
motifs that are easier to handle.
was: “ Critical Issues in Vocational
Education for Black Americans.” Ms.
Chisholm stated that basic skills are
essential for all students with special
needs and that basic skills need not be
academic!
A n o th e r
m a jo r
address
was
delivered by The Honorable Ernest
Green, U .S. Assistant Secretary of
Labor. Green stressed the necessity for
C E T A and Vocational Education to
work together for the benefit o f all
youth to help solve some o f the youth

Black educators discuss vocatioaal education
How Black Americans can help solve
some of the problems in vocational
education was one o f the issues
brought out at the “ First Annual Con­
ference o f the National Association for
the Advancement of Black Americans
in Vocational Education (N A A B A V E )
in Dallas. Texas, in early March o f this
year. More than 250 Black Americans
attended this conference from more
than thirty states
N A A B A V E was established less
than a year ago on the assumption that
there are problems idiosyncratic
and or unique to ethnic minority par­
ticipation. in general, and Black
American participation, particularly,
in vocational education.
The con­
ference director and N A A B A V E
President. Dr. N. Alan Sheppard, of
Virginia Polytechnic Institute and
State University , (presently on leave to
the Federal Council on Aging) states
that the belief is shared by many that
I n v it a t io n to B id
Temple Choir will also sing during the
revival, both Young People and Adult
Choirs.
Thursday night is special
youth night.
Evangelist preacher for the Revival
will be D r. Jesse L . Douglas, Pastor o f
Jamison Memorial C .M .E . Church o f
Kansas C ity, Missouri. D r. Douglas
has conducted the revival preaching
and singing in Portland for the past
three years. He is noted as one o f
America’ s greatest Gospel singers and
preachers. He has travelled throughout
the United States in Gospel Concerts,
conducted city-w ide revivals and
revivals for several denominational
churches in America. H e has records o f
his Preaching and Gospel singing cam­
paigns. D r. Douglas is a native of New
Orleans, Louisiana
He was guest
soloist at the C .M .E . Church General
Conference in Birmingham, Alabama
where he brought every one to their feet
with his powerful Gospel tinging.
Prior to the beginning of the revival
on Monday there will be a twelve hour
Prayer Vigil conducted at Allen Tem­
ple in preparation for the revival. The
Prayer Vigil will begin Saturday, June
17th at 7:00 p.m. and end on Sunday,
June 18th at 7:00 a.m. Pastor T .L .
Strayhand and members welcome the
public to all o f these services.
Sooth Africa
(Continued from Page 1 Column 4)
The struggle in South Africa is an
American struggle too. The forces that
perpetuate legalized racism in South
A fric a also perpetuate racism here.
Consider, for example, the economic
links. It is American computers. Ford.
G .M ., American Motors trucks and
heavy equipment, American oil com­
panies and tb e ir o il processing
machinery that make it possible for the
Vorster regime to carry on its odious
apartheid system. I f this country were
to apply pressure to these corporations
to withdraw their millions o f dollars in
investments and stop supplying the
governm ent
w ith
sophisticated
machinery, the system o f apartheid
would have to give in to the justifiable
demands o f the Blacks and thus defuse
the ever-ticking time bomb.
