Always Those Santa Letters

Santa Claus has a gigantic task each year in reading and answering letters from good boys and girls around the world. But the Jolly Old Man is faithful to his calling and always manages to get it done in time for his journey from the North Pole on Christmas Eve.

This year Saint Nick ran across some letters he found either amusing, unique or quite bold. He stopped off at the Dally Reflector office last week with an armload of the youthful compositions and asked if we might be Interested in telling other folks about them.

One letter carried a little boys drawing cl what he thought Santas workshop must look like. . . a bright colored igloo.

Dear Santa, the letter read. **I want Roodoph (a real roo-doph) (sic) for Christmas and cause I save my gun, my hoster and my guitar.

Shoppers In Record Numbers

Big Season For

Business, Buyers

By G. C. CHAPMAN Reflector Staff Writer If last years Oirislmas sear son provided greenvllle merchants with a banner sales period and it did this year should be even bigger.

The story seems to be the same every year, but still it bear repeating: sh(8K)er8 have turned out in record numbers this month to boost local business to new heights of .economic in-os-peiity.

Business gets better and better fOT (me simple reason, says Harold Creech, DlrecUm of the Chamber of Ocmunerce . Merchants Associaticm, and that ]s that the p<K>ulatlon just keeps growing and growing.

In Greenville this year, merchants are in general agreement that business Is booming better than ever. Creech, tol, agrees and notes: "From all that Ive heard, business In Greenville is very good. I think the addlticmal paridng which has been created downtown has also helped increase business. Christmas sbc^pers are hard to deter, however, and it takes more than a lack of parking space, bad weather, or what

have you to dampen their CSirlst-mas spirit.

Most stores throifitout the city

roup

were opoi for business until 9:(X) p. m. during the last week or so before the holiday, and the late hours seemed to draw shoppers by the hundreds.

The benefits of operating late hours those last few shopping days were twofold: it gave the consumer time for sh(^ing after working hours, and gave the merchants business In a much greater volume than the regulsu* (^>erating hours afforded.

How does the ix-esence cl East Carolina College affect local business? Opions agree that the 5,0(X)-plus students at ECO add a tremendous boost to the local economy, but merchants dlsagi^ as to its value during the Christ, mas rush.

Some businessmen opine that the colleges closing last week hurt business, while others say it did not.

One local merchaot, in the clothing business, estimates that about 60 percent of his total business comes from the college and local high schools. Yet he was not discouraged by the fact that students Irft for home last wetc.

Business hasnt fallen down, he notes, but if they ( the students) were here. It would be a lot better.

He is quick to point out that

his place of buskiess is doing better than ever. H it holds up like this, he said earlier this week, it will be the bert year we have every had.

At the same time, others lament the passing of the students from the local scene: Business is fine, (xie man noted, but it would be considerably better had the students remained. I couldnt stay in business without them.*

All in all, retailers agree that though business is good, It could be better. It could always bt better, gut they are not c(Hnpalln-ing about the tremendous voluma cl trade in the city this year.

(Christmas shopping season., aid businesses of all t3n?es. including food stores and restaurant proprietor stated succkit-ly, During the Christmas season the restaurant business thrives . . .there has definitdy been an Increase because of the Christmas season.

So shoppen are happy, mei^ chants are happy, children art happy, hi short, most everybody seems to be happy which Is Just as it should be at Christinas-time.

It may not be a white Christmas for Greenville folks t h i year, but it will have been one of the biggest in terms of money spent, in the history of the ci^.

W. T. Oartman. interim director of the local department, said his department planned gifts in the amoimt of $10 for each child. This varied, however, since older children might require mre money and the small Infants would not require as much.

Gifts included such things as ths less expensive transistor radios, watches, jackets for school wear and, of course, toys for the smaller children.

The toys and other gifts wer distributed on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.

Holiday Wedding Plans Fill Time For

If With Christmas in the air,

fivcral young ladies have been isy with other plans holiday eddkigs. The summer months 1 rht very well be the most

gjpular. but December runs a c-se second.

Toni Morin, whose marriage

Jesse McLawhorn took place mday, commented, We did especially plan to have a |bday wedding, but when the was set December turnad out to be the month that we ic^e.

tP'^cember is sort of a busy <n which to plan a wed-when you have Christmas

ard o^her activities to think about."

T^*ln keeping with the holiday eason, we used white poinset-tias for the ceremony, remarked Mrs. McLawhorn. r Lois Sermons and Reg g 1 e E^rton were also married Sunday in a traditional wedding using holiday colors and flowers. A bride can have such a beau-Hful wedding with seasonal eolias red and green. We chose December as the month for our wedding because it is a festive Jime and people are together, cur friends that attend college out-of-town and relatives are at iiome.

- fTTie pros for a December wedding are the summer is hot. spring and fall are too jret; therefore, we couldnt think

of a better time to get married . this is a convenient time for us than in December. You can Just and we are very pleased to be

able to have a holiday wed-dkig," she concluded.

take a chance on the weather, she continued.

Andrea Harris of Ayden who married Billy Norris Dec. 18 stated, We wanted to have a December wedding because it is a very speciid season and very sacred.

We used red and white colors, My attendants wore white dresses and carried bouquets of red roses.

Everybody says the holidays are rushed and busy, but to me getting married during this time was just fine.

Ginger Melton and Carolyn Tripp have set their wedding dates immediately fol 1 o w 1 n g Christmas Day. Ginger will wed Darrell Hurst on Dec. 26 in a ceremony to be held at her home.

I have bei rushed since I taught school until Dec. 22 and was still in the process of planning the wedding. This is an ideal time for us because we have time off from school and our friends and relatives will be at home.

Ginger teaches in Virginia and Darrell teaches at Staunton Military Academy.

Carolyn Tripp will wed Robert Benton Dec. 27 at the Memorial Baptist Church.

By having a holiday wedding, we could have been rushed but we have been planning the wedding since August and therrfore we have had plenty of time.

We are using seasonal colors including Christmas red, emerald green and white. The church decorations will be red and white poinscttias, remarked Carolyn.

Since I am teaching school.

After getitng the basic prop, the pear tree, you need:

Two turtledoves. Authentic European turtledoves can be had for $25 a pair. If your neighborhood bird Importer is fresh out, add $1,000-$1,500 for the cost of the trip to get them. ^

Three French hens. See 2. '

Pour colly birds. Historically, the term colly bird refers to the EurtHTean blackbird, so you can plrk these up along with the turtledoves and French hens, unless you want to take poetic license and setUe for plain old crow.

Five gold rings. You can lay out quite a pile for these, but you arent far along the list, so settle for the five-and-dime variety.

Six geese a-laying. On this item, timing is very important. Intermittent laying an egg here, an egg there has ruined this gift more than once.

Seven swans a-swimming. Black swans are $300 a pair, white ones $200. If you need a pool, add $2,000.

Eight maids a-mllklng. Now here you have a problem. There are few milkmaid rental agencies left. As for eight cows, those sell for $200 or so each.

Nine drummers drumming. The musicians union will provide these for $360 for three and a half hours.

Ten pipers piping. See 9.

CHAPTER 23

THE STARS shone, the flowers exuded their perfume, the dance band continued its insistent music, and Cecily was being kissed and was kissing in return. And then she remembered who she was and where she was and how mad the whole thing was, and she withdrew herself from Vincent Learys encircling arms.

I I have to go back. she stammered. People will be leaving now and I have to say good-by to them.

Vincent didnt follow her. and the moment stepped into the room, she was swept into the dance by a youth whose name she couldnt at the moment remember. The dance was short. Aime Doraine, commissioned by Eloie, came in to tell the musicians that it was time for their supper break.

With the cessation of the music. all the guests who had not eaten went into the dining room, w'hile others, usually in pairs, went to cool off on the galleries or down in the garden.

Seated at a small table alone, John and Louise waved inviting hands to Cecily. She sat down beside them.

Louise held out her left hand and let Cecily see the ring flashing. on the third finger.

We wanted you to be the first to know. I havent even told Mama yet.

They were both looking at her as if they expected her to be pleased, and Cecily did feel a release of tension. She had been expecting the blow to fall ever since Johns return and now that It had come, it was almost a relief to know the worst.

She managed to say the right things, to congratulate John on his good fortune and to wish them both all the happiness that their bright prospects promised.

Now you will have to drink to us. John said, as he went off to get glasses of champagne.

And did it really just happen, here at my party? Cecily asked Louise.

Yes no wonder I think Its the best party Ive ever been to. Of course, it wasnt entirely unexpected, but 1 wasnt really sure until John put the ring on my finger.

Neither was I. said John, returning. It seemed almost too good to be true.

Knowing Johns self - confidence and that he must have bought the ring in advance, Cecily didnt quite believe this. John would be certain of success before he asked a girl to marry him.

Now heres to ourselves! John raised his glass.

Cecily sipped her champagne. John said to Cecily, When are you and Si

We arent. Cecily spoke defensively. Then a suspicion crossed her mind. Did Simon tell you that we were engaged?

Si? You know he wouldnt unless it were true, but he did tell me that he was in love with | you, and everyone just thought that you and Si would marry one day.

I know, and Simon did have i a juvenile crush, but I think I hes over it now. Hes only a I year younger than you by the ' calendar, but in other ways, hes years younger.

Louise, more sensitive than John, was beginning to read be-I tween the lines of this cross i : talk. . I

1 Hes been dancing a lot with I little Patti O'Brien. she said.

And theyre having supper to-, ge^her over there.

Cecily looked and saw Pattis I dark head and Simons fair one. She could see that they were more interested in each other than the food.

Shall we tell Mama now? Louise asked.

No. v'ait until I take you home. John said firmly.

Shell be pleased. Cecily made it a statement, but it was really a question.

Oh yes. I know she will. For a while she wanted me to marry ] Randy, but when I told her how i much I dislike him and when

she saw for herself how Impossible he is by the way, where has he disappeared to?

He went home early, Cecily told her.

Hes been drowning his sorrows, I aippose. John spoke with contempt.

Louise kissed her ring and turned the diamond inside her hand. I dont want anywie else to know until weve told Mama.

The musicians were back. They all stood up. and there was Vincent beside her, asking for a dance. They danced in silence for a few minutes. Then Vincent spoke.

Im sorry. I shouldnt have done that. For a moment, I lost my head.

Its almost obligatory to kiss girls at dances, Cecily told him. It isnt even a misdemeanor and unless one loses ones heart as well as wies head, theres no harm done.

She knew that the words were provocative, but she was still a little crushed by her talk with Louise and John and she felt in a reckless mood.

I had already lost my heart several weeks ago in Saint Anthonys garden.

This was further than Cecily wanted things to go, so she said nothing. People were beginning to leave. The bridge players had left Eloie's library and were standing watching the dancers, making it evident that both Eloie and Octavia thought it time for the party to end. But to show that they were still young enough to dance. Aime Doraine entered the ballroom with Eloie. They were both as slender as reeds and somehow they managed to turn the music into waltz time.

There was a short bterval and then a final dance, and at last, Cecily, having been told by everyone what a marvelous time they had had and having watched the last car drive off, was able to look at her grandmother without showing the relief she felt at their departure.

It was a success, wamt Eloie spoke with satisfaction even while viewing the devastation in the dining room.

Yes. everyone had a g o o d time, Gran'mere. John and Louise wnll be a wonderful Washington hostess.

If he goes to Washington. . He will. All his life John has done what he wanted to do. Rosie was sweeping the ballroom floor: in the dining room. Philomene was helping Jason carry things out to the kitchen, where even Bcnjy had been dragged from sleep to help wash dishes.

Lets go up and get out of our clothes. Eloie said.

Cecily knew that meant a long chat. Eloie, who kept very irregular hours, never .seemed to think that other people wanted to sleep. Also. Cecily, knowing that her grandmother was well aware of her love for Jlpn. was afraid .'he would mention her riisanpointment. She might have known better: Eloie w-as too tactful to offer condolences, or advice.

Cecily undressed in her own room, hanging un the green dres.s that was to have been so irresi.'tihle and had been so useless. She removed th'' emerald necklace too old for her to wear, as Gran'mere had admitted. Pearls, not emeralds, were right for young girls.

Then, in gowm and slippers, she went to join her grandmother, who was also in gown

Though much of the ^ruclng was done with cedar and pine, and even some artifical materials. the result is a gaUy decorated College Union,

Its a traditional CU activity at the college. And this year several hundred students showed up for the annual Christmas De-OMBtional Party. It kept them busy for most of one evening.

Five student committees, guided by the director of CU activities, Cynthia Ann Mendenhall, and her assistant, Farleigh Hun-gerford, planned the par^ that produced these results:

Tidings Of Great Joy- - To All

LUKE 2: 1-20 ,

And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Au^istus, that all the world should be taxed.

(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenms was governor of Syria.)

And all went to be taxed, every one mto hs own city.

And Joseph also went iin from OnUioe. out of the city of Nazareth, *-*+0 unto the citv of David, which

iq= odiiled Bethlehem, (becan^^e he wa. of th" house and Unepo-o of David.)

'I'o he taxed with Marv his espoused beinT <^reat with ehild.

And so it was. that^ while thev were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

And she brought forth her firs+hnrn son, and wranned him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a mane-er: because there was no room for them in the inn.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them; and J:hey were sore afraid.

And the angel said unto them, Pear not: for. behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

A Day For The Middle-Aaec.

By HAL BOYLE

NEW YORK (AP) Clirtt-maa, they say. is for ' t h e young. f'/f

Why, bless our tired old way-' faring heart and steaming bifocal glasses, that simply is*

n t BO.

Christmas is for the fiddle-aged. The whole holiday is made up for them.

The truth about Christmas is that children are too small to know Its measure, old people are too tired, and that leaves the middle-aged to appreciate Its true treasure.

It isnt the child who needs Santa Claus. Reality is fresh and new to him, and the world is a garden of delight. He requires no fable when fact is a sweetdeyed meadow before him.

It Is the middle-aged person, .somewhat disillusioned by the ordinary, who has to believe in Santa Claus. It Is for him Christmas is necessary, to rescue him from the daily rut and refurbish his faith in the extraordinary.

Childhood needs no such rescue. Middle age can hardly do without It.

1 know many middle-ap e d people who all the year long wait with pathetic eagerness to shed the cloak of common-ness, to drop their distrust of humanity, and wear in season the spirit of Jesus Christ as a robust robe.

In particular I recall a middle-aged friend, now not too many years dead, who made of Christmas a nedessary event.

He himself went Into the marketplace and picked out the family Christmas tree. It had to fill a need for spaciousness in his life. It had to be green and wide-armed and

reach from the floor to a topping star that brushed the celling.

He lik(| an old - fashioned Christmas tree with modern touches. To his wife he allowed the purchase of ripe cranberries and the popping of the corn. If *he chose to help him laboriously thread the cranberries and the popcorn in red and white strands, that was up to her, too.

But when it came to decorating the tree he allowed no maternal or childish help. Alone, for hours, he wound the cranberry and popcorn ropes, adjusted the lights, covered every needle with gleam 1 n g tinsel, put bulbs and baubles here, wide-eyed angels there.

After It was all done, he would wipe the sweat from his brow and let the rest of the family admire his wonderwork.

That," hed announce with unashamed pride, is a Christmas tree!

Then hed invite his neighbors In to view It, and they always had to agree It was a realChristmas tree, invariably the best in the block.

The truth about Christmas is that middle-aged people give presents to children only as an excuse to have fun themselves, They dont mind expensive toys for others so long as they get a token present back for themselves.

They want to be generous once a year in a stingy world clamorous usually with usual urgencies and strident necessaries.

Yes, Christmas is an essential splendor for the fhlddle-aged. It Is their day to light a candle to their own hopes.

No Greater Gift Than That Gift Of Love alvin tatlob

^ A

The Christmas season is upon us, and hopefully the spirit of Christmas as well.

Through the holly and gay lights, tinsel and trimmings, bright packages and laden trees, there shines brighter the quiet brilliance of the Spirit of the season.

The packages, trees, ribbons and lights would mean little if they were not warmed by the glow of love that permeates the world at this season of th.e year. And those who will find the real warmth of this season will find it as they give to others in the manner of that first Christmas when there were no lights but the stars, no noise but the voices of angels, and no gifts save that one Great Gift of love.

These are the gifts that are not found in the stores or the catalogs. They are the gifts that cannot be measured in terms of money or budgets. They cant be wrapped in gay packages or stacked about a tree. They are found only in the hearts of those in whom the genuine spirit of Christmas glows.

They may be distributed as freely as one takes tirne to do so without diminishing the store.

What gift would please the lonely one at this season of the year? A visit, brief though it may be, sufficient to show that love and compassion still flicker in the hearts of men and reflect the spirit of the Christ Child.

And what of the stranger w^e meet on the way? A kind w^ord or the hand of fellowship in a fleeting moment to lighten his heart and drive home the spirit of the season.

For the little child in tattered clothes, if not a toy or a doll, a smile, a word, a pleasant wish that expresses the spiritual rather than the material meaning of the season.

These are the gifts that each of Us has in abundance. And each of us may give them if we but stir ourselves at this Christmas season. The joy they will bring to others will be matched only by the joy they bring to ourselves.

The Christ had only himself to give to the w-orld on that first Christmas In the lonely .stable in Bethlehem. How better can the spirit of Christmas be kept than by following His example?

Difficult Side Of S. Viet Nam

ooking Back From Afar

More than ten years ago Spyrldon Slderls traveled to California during summer vacation from his studies at N.C. State. He liked what he saw. He liked the West Coast so well, in fact, that he decided to go back after graduation from college.

And so Spyrldon Speedy his friends had long since nicknamed him bade h i s family goodby and became one of the thousands to settle in California every year. Soon he married and now he has three children.

California Is far'frOTn Greenville, of course; travel Is expensive and Speedy has been back only a few times since.

One time was last year. His mother died near Christmastime. Death had come rather soon after her Illness was discovered. Speedy was among her children four boys and a daughter, all of whom she had raised and seen through college who came home for the -funeral.

We didnt see much of Speedy during that sad visit. But just the other day we received a Christmas card and message from him. Something had impressed him during the fun-

Public /

eral.

He Wrote: "As the funeral procession was heading down the streets to the cemetery, the cars coming from opposite lanes pulled off the road and stopped; and In a few instances the drivers got out a n d those wearing hats uncovered. Maybe they knew Mom, but 1 doubt It.

"In thinking back later I realized that this is the customary thing to do, but to OTie who has been living In a 'different' ( or Is it indifferent?) area Where such is not the custom the Impact is tremendous.

"It made me feel sort of proud in a humble sort of way that I had grown up in this way.

"The south has its Imperfections (to some they are very numerous) but It can never be accused of being indifferent to people. But you have to get away and come back to see It.-.s.

Speedy closed by saying that this was not much of a Christmas message.

Maybe not. But somehow when we were searching for a Christmas column this struck us as Ideal. Speedy had merely illustrated the true message

By JAMES MARLOW

WASHINGTON (AP) The American problem In Viet Nam becomes more obvious the worse the situation gets. Its more than Just helping the people fight the ConuTHinlsts; its trying to get them to be willing to fight.

The American - supported war, despite the billions of dollars In military and economic help poured in there, is going down hill while the Communists, united undvr a dedicated and single purpose, are getting stronger.

The South Vietnamese through their own dissensions there are Buddhist, Catholic, military, political and student factions are doing as much to lose the fight as anything the Communists can do to them.

Over the weekend came the sixth upheaval in government over the past 13 months, starting with the coup that ended In the assassination of President Ngo Dinh Diem In November 1963.

This time a group of young army officers dissolved ths legislature and arrested some of its members, thus establishing glilitary instead of civilian control.

Thus, while the fact Iona struggle for control In Saigon, the Communists overrun the countryside and the American amba.ssador. Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, slides deeper Into frustration. Theres no end to this chaos In sight.

Taylor, in a private conversation with Lt. Gen. Nguyen Khauh, commander ia cieX o

the armed forces, warned that the United States didnt like the weekend development at all.

Khanh hit back with defiance to Washington although without American help its impossible to see how South Viet Nam can survive the Communist attack by solidly backing the young generals purge of the civilian government.

He warned against foreign Interventlwi In Vietnamese affairs and Indicated the purge would not be undone.

Washington faces this situa-Uon: If the United States should pull out of Viet Nam, almost certainly the country would be lost to communism. Eventually perhaps all Southeast Asia, which is under the shadow of Red China, would fall un d e r Communist rule.

If the United States continues help and American lives and wealth continue to be lost and the endless coups go on, chaos and the loss of Viet Nam seem inevitable.

Tuesday night after what must have been a lot of sober thought the United States warned South Viet Nam's military leaders that continued U. 8. support is based on existence oi a Saigon government "free of improper interference

This was In the traditional diplomatic language of vague-ness, It would mean an ultimtum that there would be a cutoff In U.S. aid if the military doe.H not leave the civilian government alone. But it didnt .say so.

Dear Editor.

This evening as I returned home from work I found my wife and two boys working together in the kitchen, and the boys were about as happy as Ive ever seen them (particularly at that time of day: 6:30 p.m.). It seems they were all excited about making some candy for "that nice policeman who stops cars for us. They were referring to the patrolman who works on Char 1 e s Street near Stratford subdivision as the children go to and from Elmhurst Elmen t a r y School.

As a parent and Greenville citizen I'd like to take this means to thank this particular patrolman for dokig h 1 s Job in such a manner that it adds Joy to my boys lives, as it also seems to do to many other kids in the neighborhood And it means a lot to my wife and me that our youngsters are obtaining at this early age respect, rather than resentment, for police officers and the law. We may try to

"teach this respect In the schoolrooms but Id bet this patrolman is teaching more respect for the law in the few minutes the kids cross the highway than will ever be taught in the classroom.

And at the expense of sounding a little corny, but nevertheless sincere, this patrolman has already given my youngsters a better and more lasting present than theyll get under the tree Christmas Day. ' They have learned the pure, simple Job of having friends and of makkig and giving something to these friends.

So will you kindly help me thank the proper patrolman? His services as well as those of the entire force are always appreciated even though we show our appreciation only occasionally.

Sincerely, Ralph H. Steele

(NOTE: Police Chief Guy C. Langston identified "t h e proper patrolman as officer T.L. Ramsey.)

of Christmas good will toward men.

The winds of change are sweeping the south these days. Speedy, but we find ourselves fervently hoping that such customs as this will never be among those which will disappear.

Strength For To(day

By EARL L. DOUGLASS FIDELITY

Fidelity is defined in the dictionary as "as faithful adherence to right, careful and exact observance of duty or discharge of applications. It is derived from a Latin word which means "faithful.

Employers over the years come to know that fidelity is something they cannot buy merely by raising wages and salaries. Some people are born faithful. Others achieve fidelity, and still others have fidelity thrust upon them by Irate bosses in adverse circumstances. But no matter how fidelity comes into being, it Is a quality without which business cannot be conducted, normal home life pursued, or International policies cOTicelved and put Into operation.

Life is at one and the same time very complex and very simple. Its complexity arises from the wide variety of forces which are constantly working in our hearts and in the world round about ua. It Is in the simplicity of life that we see the necessity for fidelity. It is one of those plain, necessary virtues without which marriage becomes a nightmare and the acUvities of business and experience of frustration which Increases as the years pass.

There Is nothing one needs to develop more in his own life than fidelity, for It is a simple virtue without which all others lose their meaning and potency. Happy is that person who demands fidelity of himself and others. Happy the person also who experiences a continual peace of heart because his life is characterized by consistent purpose.

Cause

By JOHN CHAMBERLAIN

If some of the Alrican states in the UN aren't careful, they will succeed in turning President Lyndon Johnson into a flaming conservative in foreign policy issues.

The latest idiocy manifested by the "get the United States group in the UN is to be found in a recent report of-a subcommittee of tbe Special Committee on Colonialism that flails away at the alleged sins of certain American mining companies with concessions in Southwest Africa. These companies are accused of supporting apartheid policies In that part of the world, and of grinding the faces of the natives to make a profit. The crowning insult Is the Committee on Colonialisms call on the American government to put an end to its support of the Republic ci South Africa, which has run Southwest Africa ever sbioe U took over that old German colony as a poet-World War I League of NAtions mandat d territory.

The subcommittee'a report was actually drafted by the Soviet Uni(ms UN delegation. What it etrikes at are the operations of international m> ponies which, as a condition of getting concessions to dredge for diamonds in the coastal waters of Southwest Africa or to drill for oil, are <tf nesaity compelled to observs tbs 1m bors laws imposed by ths South African government. These labor laws insist on uniform recruitment policies, snd Impose a strict control of Immigration from Angola and other places outside Southwest African territory. There are legal restrictions on tbe adviaee-ment of colored wotlters to more highly paid positions, and these. In effe<rt. keep Negro laborers from becoming sldU-ed workers.

The American companies that have evoked the dkQilfae-

ure of the Soviet - dominated sulxsommittee include the American Metal Climax Company, the Newmount Mining Corporation, the Tsumeb Corporation, the Etosha Petroleum Company), the Artnell Exploration as Eastern Trananisslon Company), the Artness Exploration Company, and the Marine Diamond Corporation (which Is run by Samuel Collins, an American oil man). What bums some of these companies up Is that they themselves d o b t agree with the South African governments Insistence that apartheid, or "separateness,' be applied In the training of workers. Harry Oppenhemer, the chairman of the Anglo-American Corporation, a British concern, has actually pointed out that low productivity resulting from segregated labor Is undesirable for effectlvi Industrialization.

Mr. Oppenheimer has said that "attempts to remedy this situation are, of course, made more difficult by the legislative color bars which are imposed on Industry fei South Africa. The Oppenheimer statement has been endorsed by the management (rf the U.S.-owned American Metal Climax Company in a company rw>rt that says: "It Is to be hoped that the governmental authorities will now be prepared to sponsor or permit substantial modernization of the standards and condltliwis ot employment and life of the African workers in the territory."

This sort of thing diarty ranges U.S. companies 08 the side of their own government In WashingtiHi, which doit not support the Republic of South Africa on the Issue of apartheid. As for the charge that the American companies grind the ^es of the poor In order to extract a profit from iouth-west African operatlcxis, this is beUef by the faot that three-quarters of tho local inoome taxes come from mining, flsh-hig, and other companka.

The attempt to etmatlao the U S. government and tha American companies In Southwest Africa as supporters of tpai^ theld Is only to be undefftood In the light of tbe Afro-Atlan drive In the UN to boobflrap the whole American wofld position.

By EI.MER ROESSNER

Promise of a potent new weapon in the struggle against world hunger recently was discovered in a mutant com gene called "opaque-2..

Opaque-2 has been known to scientists and researchers for at least three decades and has been used in a minor way as a tracer gene in developing hybrid corn. The opaque-2 kernel, lighter in color and more opaque than other kernels in an ar of corn, is easily recognized.

More Important than appearance, PurdUa University research recently discovered, Is the fact that opaque-2 has twice the lysine content of n o r m 11 com. And lysine 1 a key amino acid ill animal and human protein nutrition.

Com protein Is a highly <JOm-plex mixture of dozens of amino acids. Normal hybrid com cunialns about 9 per cent pro-tain. High protein com oontaina

about 12 per cent with some varieties going as high as IS per cent.

PROPORTIONS VARY

The trouble is that the nutritional value of protein depends on the amount and kinds of the various amino acids and their ratios to each other. Although opaque-2 com may not differ appreciably from normal com in its amount of protein. It has. reatarchers believe, probably twioa as much protein nutrltlofial value bactusa of It# high lyalne content.

All protfln comas from plants. Livestock does not manufacture protein, but converts plant protein into animal protein. In advanced countries, people obtain protski fr(Mn both plants and aoUnals. But in backward opuntiiel. the principal diet is low-protein cereal foods, only slightly supplemented by meat.

Tbe bigb protein in opaque-3

could help correct poor nutrition in two ways increasing the protein nourishment in cereal eaten and increasing meat production through improv e d protein feed for livestock. Countries with high standards of living would also benefit through Improved feed for livestock. THIRD ADVANTAGE

In addition to improved cereals and better livestock feed. opaque-2 may be significant for a third reason. It could prove to be a useful scientific tool for studying the Uttle-under-stood mechanism of protein synthetis and help achieve further advances towards optimum protein content and balance In vartou.x food.'(.

The Purdue University discovery of the. high-piotein nutritional value of opaque-2 com will not have an Immediate effect on the worlds diet. Five or more years will be required to build up adequate #t td

stocks of opaque-2 and op 2 crossbreeds. Feeding H With both animals and bu will be necessary to detei digestibility of the mutant and the extent of the nuti al improvement it providi /Generally speaking. quA a more significant fact< protein improvement quanUty.

Joy Spread At Hospital

By G. C. CHAPMAN Reflector Staff Wrher Nobody, but nobody fancies the idea of spending the holiday of the year Christmas in the hospital. But a lot of people Just cant help themselves.

At this moment, there are some 90 to 100 persons spending the holiday, like it or not. in Pitt Memorial Hospital. Men, women, and children from throughout the area are regret-ably confined to the four sterile walks of their rooms.

But it may not be so unpleasant as it might sound. Hospital officials hope not, at least. Every effort is being made to see to it that these people enjoy their holiday as much as possible, despite their confinement.

Aside from the usual holiday menu of turkey with all the trimmings. the hospitals patients have for more than a week now been entertained frequents church, school, and colleve choirs and choruses singing Christmas music.

Though these various groups have not been allowed in individual rooms or wards, they have been free to tour the hospitals corridors spreading Christmas cheer with songs of the seascm.

A hospital patient at Christmas time could easily, and understandably, become very depressed, especially if he or she were a youngster.

So, every effort is being made by staffers and nurses to generate Christmas spirit am(mg the ahutins. It isnt easy, but every little bit helps.

Decorations in the form of Christmas cards, sprays, floral arrangements are various other Christmas designs are seen in ooaalderable number.

On the front lawn of Pitt Memorial is a large. beauUfuUy-decorated Christmas tree ( 16

CHRISTA6AS IN THE HOSPITAL . . . doesn't have to be a lonely time for patients, and especially for these children who aid a group of high school students in decorating a Christmas Tree placed in the children's wing of Pitt Memorial. Such activities are typical of steps taken by hospital personnel to bring the Christmas spirit to the hospital.

Mrs. Douglas declined to poae for pictures.

By DAVE HARRISON NORTH CHATHAM. N.Y. (AP) Virginia 0Hanlon Douglas, whose childhood question has become nearly as much of the Christmas spirit as holly and mistletoe, celebrates her 75th Christmas this year the 67th since she asked the New York Sun Is there a Santa Claus?

That question undoubtedly has raised about as many times as 7-year-olds have be-

In her own statement on the report of the subcommittee Mrs. Tree said: Its ctmclusions constitute. . .undisguised propaganda attacks on the United States. . ."

Francis P. Church in his editorial reply.

Yes, \^ginia, there is a Santa Claus, the editorial said.

He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion

exist... Alas, how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa CHaus. It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. . . The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.

Virginia, now a silver-haired

widow with seven grandchildren and three great-grandchildren, lives with her only daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Temple, in this community about 15 miles south <rf Albfuiy.

She moved here in 1959 after teaching In the New York City school system for 48 years.

She said she was overwhelmed at the number of CHiristmas cards more than 1(X) she has received this year.

feet high) with a lighted star on t(9. The tree is visible for most

'patients through their windows.

The front lobby, though of little cheer to bed patients, greets visitors and staff members with all the warmth and good cheer of the season. The trees are donated by the Greenville Service League each year, and are decorated by league members and hospital personnel.

The Service League renders more than that one service toward making Christmas in Pitt Memorial more memorable, however: Christmas dinner trays will bear cards and designs pointing up the seasons presence: and each patients door Is decorated with cards or designs.

For the children, an extra bonus was given by students of J. H. Rose High School. The students last week decorated a CThristmas tree and took It to the hospital for placement in the childrens ward.

Of course, in transporting the tree, it had to be un-decorated, and much enjoyment was given those children who were able to help redecorate the green tree.

Many organizations, civic, social, and fraternal, contribute small toys and candy (for those permitted to indulge) to the young people.

Though Santa isnt able to per

sonally visit them there, gifts are always forthcoming from family and friends, aside from the deep pleasure a lonely child receives from just a visit by mom and pop.

Christmas at Pitt Memorial will not be a lonely one, then. The Christmas spirit is a big, big thing. It can penetrate the thickest walls and the lonllest rooms. . .as long as it gets the outside help so generously provided by countless individuals, organizations, friends, and just plain nice people who have pitched In to make Christmas, 1964, a better one for the sick.

If the United States felt it had to pall out, and thereafter South Viet Nam was lost, American prestige around the world would suffer heavy damage.

The Vietnamese military men are probably banking on that: the Idea that the United States, no matter how harsh It sounds, will be willing to endure repeated frustrations rather than admit defeat to the world by pulling out.

8Th Dilly Reflector, Greenville, N. C.thursdey, December 24, 1964Mental Health Ass'n Has

Christmas For Four Americans

Its Special Gift' Project In Chinese Cells

SANTA'S SIEICH? . . . Well the next best thing for the patients of state hospitals end schools for the mentally retarded. Pictured here is Mrs. M. P. Bally, executive director of the Pitt County Mental Health Afsociation, with her son as they prepare to make their last journey of the year wi th Christmas gifts from the PCMHA's annual *^Operation Santa Claus" Campaign.

The Pitt County Mental Health Association has been hard at work during the past months .so-Uclting gifts to aid in a statewide program that wdll provide approximately' 20.000 gifts for the patients in state hospitals and schools for mentally retarded children this Christmas.

Mrs. M. P. Baily. executive director of the PCMHA made trips to feoidsboro. Raleigh and Kinston last week and earlier this week delivering approximately 3.500 gifts and $150 in ca.sh to provide Christmas for these patients.

Gifts were caiTied to OBerry and Cherry HospitaLs in Goldsboro. Dorothea Dix Hospital In Raleigh nd the Caswell Training Center in Kinston. These trips climaxed a campaign that began early in September.

'Operation Santa Claus as the campaign has been dubbed, was held this year under the leadership of Mrs. K.B. Pace.

Every one of the 3.500 gifts has been donated to the PCMHA by church groups, business firms, civic clubs and individuals and include everything from cosmetics and articles of clothing to crayons and coloring books. One church had a love offering for gifts of money and other items at Thanksgiving for this cause. Other donors include a religious group at East Carolina College, professional clubs at various high schools in the county and students as well.

Those receiving the gifts ranged in age from six to 66 and are either patients in mental hospitals or are attending schools for mentally retarded children.

Mrs. Baily pointed out that the recipients of the gifts are those persons who cannot go home at Christmas either because they have no homes or because of their conditions.

Mrs. Baily called this years OperatlMi Santa Claus the biggest ever and expressed a hearty thanks to all who contributed so generously.

Bv JOHN CANTWELL HONG KONG (AP Four Americans will spend Qiristmas Day in their Chinese prison cells as they spend any other day. On Christmas night they will get their only reminder o the Yule-tide small Christmas puddings.

Their families were allowed by Uie Communist Chinese to Include the puddings in regular monthly packages from home. The packages, shipped through the Red Cross, also include cigarettes, vitamin pills and letters.

These Americans have been jailed on vague charges of es- ; pionage. Three of the four have been given little hope of ever spending Christmas in their homes again.

For all attempts by the U.S. government and relatives to obtain tlieir release have so far been rejected by the Chinese.

For Hugh F. Redmond Jr.. 45. of Yonkers, N.Y.. a former businessman in China who is serving a life term, this will be the 14th Christma.s in a Chinese Communist prison.

For John T. Downey. 34. of new Britain. Conn.. and Richard Fecteau. 37. of Lynn. Mass., former Army civilian employes.

It will be the 13th Christmas behind bars.

Downey is serving, a life term and Fecteau a 20-year sentence. With only seven .years left, Fecteau is the only one likely to see the United States again unless Peking has a change of heart.

The other American Is the Mo.st Rev, James E. Walsh, a Roman Catholic bishop of Cumberland, Md. He was sentenced in March 1960 to 20 years in jail.

The bishop. 73, has no illusions about his fate. When his brother visited him in jail in 1961. Bishop Walshs parting words were: **We will meet in heaven.

Bishop Walsh Is believed kept , in the hospital section of a Shanghai prison because of his age. In Cumberland, Md., his brother William said that in recent letters the bishop said his health is holding up very weH.

The others no doubt will follow the usual prison routine on Christmas clean the cells in the morning, take yard exercise later^ and spend the rest of their time i-eading and thinking.

PlanTraditional Holiday Menu

Guests at the Pitt Cotmty Home, and county and city Jails will all parake of grand Christ-ma-s fare on the big day. along with alrao.st everyone In the land.

At the County Home, for example. the menu consists of turkey, naturally, but with many appetizing side dishes. Giblct gravy, cranberry sauce, corn, ham. creamed potatoes, .string beans, biscuits, milk, sweet po-tatoe pie and coconut cake round out the Christmas dinner menu there.

Lots of turkey, cranbeiT.v sauce, and potatn pie are an integral part of Chn.stma.s celebration, and nobody, it seema, will be left out.

At the county jail the Christmas menu will consist of turkey with oyster stuffing, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, garden peas, snap beans, and cake; and the city jail will serve a complete turkey dinner from the cafe providing the meals on that day.

Actually Tried Ban Christmas

An AP Special Report

Bv GRANVILLE J. WATTS LONDON <AP) OUver Cromwell and his Puritans decided people were having too good a time. They actually banned Christmas in June 1647, Englands C3irlstmas came back with Criarles n, the merry monarch, but it was a quieter business - and still is.

Yet some Britons still go plain crazy over Christmas.

Every Christmas Day. ice permitting, swimmers plunge into the SeriDentine Lake in Londons Hyde Park for a 100-yard race.

The winner gets the Peter Pan CMp.

Down in Folkestone, another bunch of intrepid swimmers dive into the sea for a traditional Christmas dip.

Then, bristlmg with gooseplm-ples, they dash up the beach for a jolly cup of hot punch around a bonfire.

The rest (rf Britain Is raovstly Indoors. happily attacking mountains of food and oceans of grog.

Apart from the swimmers and a few carol singers, most Britons stay home for the two-day High .spot for Britons in lunch-holiday.

time Christmas Day.

Traditional fare Is turkey or chicken followed by Christmas pudding.

Whisky, sherry, beer and wine flow freely In many homes.

At teatime, if they can still face it. most Britons munch heavy fnilt cake.

For supper they try to polish off whats left of the turkey.

The day after Christmas --Boxing Day is normally spent recovering. Shops still arc closed, but its a traditional day for football and other sports matches.

Hectic Day For Minister's Wife

Christmas is a hectic season In anyones book, but for the wife of a small-town minister,: It reaches staggering propor-tiotia. With Mrs. Carl Fearing . Schulte of Cape Cod, Mass., the holiday begins with the Thanksgiving left-overs, and ends with the churchs New Years Eve candlelight service.

Right after Thanksgiving, the choir, in which Mrs. Schultz sings soprano, begins rehearsing^ Christmas music at weekly sessions. During the first week in December the annual two-day holiday bazaar is held, and Mrs. Schultz, as president of the afternoon ladies organization, will be very much involved.

Therell be booths to decorate and stock, and Mrs. Schultz will donate aprons, sweaters, and knickknacks she has made herself for the booths. Therell be a luncheon and buffet supper to supervise.

President of' the "evening ladies organization is Mrs. Schultz daugher Mrs. Robert Thomas, who will no doubt seek her mothers adviceas everyone doeson quantities of food to order and kinds of decorations to have for the groups festive functions. At Christmas. Mrs. Thomas three Uvtly children wlu tradltlonilly be given at least one swester and a pair of mittens knit by their grsnd-mother.

Over the 35 years that Dr. and Mrs. Schulte have been at the Federated Church, It has become customary for Mrs. Schultz to create remembrances for the elderly and lonely In the psrlsh, and this yeir is no exception. She is already won-derlnf if Mrs. Smith would like some Jellies.

The White Gift service on family nlfht Is held the second Sunday before Chrlstmas. Children bring toys of clothes wrapped In white paper, and

marked according to sex and age; the parents bring box suppers. When the guests have departed after supper and a Christmas movie, the Schultaes package the gifts, and send them to a city mission in Boston.

The following Sunday, the ; young people of the Pilgrim Pel- | lowship go caroling through the , neighborhood, and stop in at the parish house where Mrs. Schulte ; has hot chocolate and cookies : awaiting them.

By this time the more than j 4,000 Christmas cards which the minister and his wife design are in the mail. It remains to I sort all the cards coming in to | be sure no one has been left out. i The card, a long verse written I by the minister and edited by his wife, tells of the years activities of the church and the doings of the family. Sometimes

it is illusteated with a photograph of ihe life-sized nativity

scene in front of the church.

How does all this activity In i Ue church affect the familys ' Christmas? Mrs. Schultz re- i members when this season meant having to hire more | baby-sitters than usual, but. she I stys, "We took the children to | miny of the church functions, so ! 1 wis kept busy supervising i functions and two lovely youngsters." !

When the children were | small, "I tried to have as nor- ' I mal a Christmas for them as : I possible. she recalls. "We had i I our stockings in the morning.

' but 1 cant remember that our ; I Christmas dinner was any more | i elaborate than a big Sunday ' dinner for the four of us. We | had no time for family re- ; unions."

The constitution of Liberia Is modeled on that of the United d States.

The coming of Christmas signifies a festive spirit that reaches into many homes and takes form in gay decorations.

Christmas Activities Featured At Schools

CHRISTMAS ASSEMBLY ... at Greenville Junior High School was typical of the activities in schools throughout the cHy and county last week. Gifts of food and clothing were turned over to the Salvation Army for distribution to the needy, and Christmas music was provided. Principal Joseph Smith Is shown here addressing the student body.

By G. C. CHAPMAN ReHector Staff Writer

All schools in Pitt County and Greenville, including East Carolina College, shut their doors for the holidays last Friday. Before they did so, however, many student activities in keeping with the Mason were c<Miducted.\

Though the trend, especially in the high schools, during the past few y^rs, has been away from the traditional class party, most students find other ways of celebrating the season.

Students at J. H. Rose High School, for example, annually conduct an extensive clothing drive during the three weeks prior to schools closing.

The mountains of clothing, both new and used, of all kinds and descriptions brought in by the students are donated to the local unit of the Salvation Army which In tura distributes them to needy families In the area.

Bill Mosier, president of the Rose High Student Council, sayf

this years goal for the drive was 2.500 articles of clothing. The goal, he noted, was quickly exceeded.

Each class participates, and a $10 prize is awarded the class contributing the highest number of clothing articles, be Uiey shoes, stockings, shirts, pants, or what-have-you.

A Christmas tree is decorated by the students and placed in the foyer of the school. The tree, usually donated by the local Optimist Club, is then decorated by the students, who contribute various ornaments.

On the day school closes, the students take the tree to Pitt Memorial RoMtal where it is placed In the childrens ward.

Other schools throughout the county conduct similar drives for food and clothing. Uxys for the children, and gifts of money to Uiose who might have done without.

Students at OreenvOle Jua i o r ' High conducted a food drive this

year. Captain Earl Reagan of the Salvation Army attended ttie Christmas aas^tdy last Friday to accept the gtfts for di^bu-tion to the poor.

The usual parties in some of the lower grades were held, special assembly programs featuring Christmas music and song were conducted, decorations were put up in the various classrooms, and many schools conducted Christmas music programs at night.

All was not peaches and cream for students in the county unit, however. Though they too participated in drives and parties, a blue note was sounded during the week before school let out: midterm examinations were given.

The enthusiasm of youth for the holiday spirit was hard 1 y dampened though, for the students somehow found time to be kind to those less fortunate, ex-amhuitions notwithstanding.

The eeventh grade class of David Thrift of Greenville Junior High indulged In an activity of note this year: the class visited the Morehesd Planatorium in Chhpel Hill to attend a special program being held there on The Star of Bethlehem.

The program, which is currently being held several times daily until the first week in the new year, offers sdentifio explana

tions for what the star of the wise men may have really been.

Authorities in astronomy present various Uiem-ies and ideas as to what the star may have been, Imt single out none as fact rather than theory.

Principal Joseph Smith Jr., who attended with the class, noted that in closing the program, its narrators pointed out that they dont discount the, possibility of a true miracle.

Does anyone?

The holiday seasmi has been, and promises to be a fine one for the youth of the county and of Greenville If their outstanding work in keeping with the season can be taken as any indication.

Students at C. M. Eppes High School, an kistnictor noted, took time out the week before closing for a daily morning devotional XI keeping with the Christmas season.

FOOD FOR THE NEEDY

_____ , . was collected by students at Greenville Junior

High School and presented to Salvation Army representative Floyd Langley (second from right) last Friday. Aiding in the students' drive were, left to right, Charles Smith, Myra Garrett, and Steve Allen, all eighth-graders at the school.

Old-Fashion Yule For Dick Van Dyke

Mining is the chief industry of New Caledonia.

Storms Due Low Pressure Area

BAN FRANCISCO, rAP) Jtist what is the weather phe-mimena pouring floods and threats of more floods along tte West coast?

It all stems from a low ixee-sure area which had remained stationary since Sunday 750 miles off the Northern California coast.

Today, however, the Weather Bureau said the low pressure area had moved shoreward. A tapering off the heavy rains was forecast.

Masses of warm air from the sub-tropics of the Southwest Pacific keep moving up to this low pressure wall. These generate storms.

When the low presure wall moves, storms are spaced. Flood rivers have a chance to subside.

Instead, storm after storm has bounced off the area onto the U.S. West Coast.

By BOB THOMAS AP Movie-Televislon Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) Everyone talks about having an old-fashioned Christmas, but few ever do anything about it. Ex-ceiion: the Dick Van Dyke family.

For a guy who is as hep as any star in show business, Dick is a remarkably old-fashiaofd fellow. He believes in morality in movies, loyalty and the si^t of Christmas.

I think the wrong emphasis has been placed on Christmas, he said. Now there is entirely too much obligatory giving.

Christmas should be a time of giving to your family and close friends the people you love. Instead, youre compelled to give to your customers, your boss, your employees, etc.

Im sure Uie average business man hates to see Christmas cne around.

The Van Dyke Christmas starts with picking out a tree. Thats an all-family affair.

Everybody goes altmg to the lot to make the choice, Including the maid, Dick said. We look at every tree until we find the one that suits everyone. Then we bring It home and everyoie has a job to do in the decoration.

"The big kids (Chris, 14; Barry, IS) handle the breakable ornaments, the younger ones (Stacy, 10; Carrie, 3) take care of the less fragile things. Weve built up quite a collection of ornaments they have made; I mean like clay balls with glitter. We save them all.

Me, I take care of stringing the lights and hanging the angel on the top of the tree, which la usufJly a 12-footer.

The Van Dykes attend the early Christmas Eve service at their church, the Brentwood Presbyterian. When they come home, Dick reads the St. Luke version of Jesus Wrth from the big family Bible. The children hang up their stockings, and Dick and wife Margie exchange their gifts to each other. (Christmas morning Is for the kids.

"Weve got It fixed now so they will wait until 7 a.m., Dick remarked. "Everyone has to line up to enter the room at the same time. Each child goes to the place where he or she has been stacking his preMnts In the room. Then they start opening. All I have to do Is keep separating the wrapping paper.

Friends drop in during the day. and the family sits down to a dinner In the afternoon. We have a big ham, rather than turkey, which we have at Thanksgiving. said Dick. Nobodys hungry, anyway. Theres too much excitement for everyone.

According to Japanese legend, the empire was founded in 660 B. C._________

Bug Cagers Off To Good Year

With the pre<nuiBtmas games in the record bo(^. the East Carolina Pirates have a better record than last years opening mailc, and have high hopes of a winning season.

Last years team moved to a 3-5 record prior to the Christmas break. This year, the Bucs hold a 4-2 record, with a three game victory streak going. The streak matches (me set last year as the longest under Coach Wendell Carr, now in his second year leading Uie Bucs.

But one of the big reasons for the present mark is experience. Last year, there was <me senior, one Junior and three sophomores on the starting five. 'This year, there is one senior, three juniors and one soiAomore.

While the bench strength last year was nothing to write tumie about, this year (tffers at least two players wtm can step right in and help get the Job done, Danny Pasquarlello and Larry Phillips.

Phillips proved his worth by getting the last four points in the last game, against Richmcmd, for an 81-79 vicUnr for the Bucs, the first for a Carr-coached team against Southern Conference oi^Kisltion.

The Pirates are also doing bet. ter statistically.

The first annual American Legion AAU boxing tournament will be held January 4-6 at the Greensboro Coliseum. The tournament will be sponsored by the Henry K. Bustner Post No. 53.

Ross Strange, tournament director, said 20 boxing clubs have been contacted and have given good response. The tournament will be open to both open and novice classes with 10 weight divisions.

There will be over 40 trophies presented in 112. 119, 125, 132. 139, 147, 156, 165. 178 and heavyweight divisions.

This Is the first time since the late 1940s that boxing has returned to Greensboro. The last boxing tournament there was the old Piedmont Golden Gloves.

A promoter of this tournament stated that it was dropped because of lack of a place to hold it, but noted that with the Coliseum, the crowds can be accommodated, and he hoped that boxing would again become popular in the area again.

In scoring, the team has picked up almost five points a contest, while their opponmts are up only two-tenths of a point.

HOUSTON (AP) - The Houston Oilers have rearranged the chain ot command among their coaches, with Hugh (Bones) Taylor emerging as field manager.

He replaces Saxnmy Baugh, head coach until he decided last week the Job took up too much of his ranching time.

Baugh will stay on as back-fleld coach and former CMler head coach Lou Rymkus is expected to be named as an assistant.

The Oilers thus would set a record for former head coaches on one staff, since Rymkus was the first head coach of the American Football League team in 1960, until be was fired. Taylor is the fifth Oiler head coach since 1960.

Taylor, a native of Wynne, Ark., waa Baughs favorite receiver in eight years with the Washington Redskins.' The former ta was oalled m an assistant when Baugh to(^ over the New York Titans and again mien be took over the Oilers last summer.

Bucs, and bring a defeat.

The ability to take pressure does a lot for a team in its chances for victory, and the Bucs are sure to feel more of it this year. Coach C?arr feels, however. that the Bucs will be able to handle themselves better this year under pressure, and hold onto those wins they gave away last year under similar (drcum-stances.

Looking at the freshmen, who also have a 4-2 record, there is high hope for the future. Their two losses came to William 8i Mary and Duke. The William & Mary game was marked by cold shooting by the Baby Bucs, while in the Duke game, the seven point loss was due to defensive problems. (Dukes freshmen are currently undefeated).

Tex Everett is leading the Baby Bucs with a 19.5 average. Both Charlie Alford and Jimmy Cox are in dout^ figures, and Fred Campbell and Sammy Lilly. the other two starters, are not far gehind. Both had poor nights in individual contests, for a below par average.

With an Improvement In defense, the Bucs are expected to continue to roll along to victories as l(xig as the shoting holds up. R has been reported that Vic Bubas, head mentor of the I^e Blue Devils told frosh coach

Harold Ellen that with a good defensive game, the Baby Bucs would be one of the toughest teams around to beat, because of their fine shooting.

So at this point in the season, the future for the rest of the seasi. and for the next few years mx>ear5 to be bright.

Duke quarterback Scotty Glacken holds the Blue Devil single-game record of four touchdown passes. He did it last year in a 35-30 victory over Clemson.

third year that the party has been held for ECC studente in t h e Washington area."

Not all of the students have beai fortunate enough to escape the strain o homewwk.

One rather perturbed student. Wa>-ne Mumford <rf New Bern, commented, Between a thesis, a book report, and a term paper, I don't suppose Ill be spreading much Christmas joy this year."

My holiday's are out for me." mused another ECC co-ed, Judy Ervin of Seaboard. "Im living in the Home Management House this quarter and will be the cook when I get back. So I guess most of my holidays will be spent planning menus."

Other not so ambitious students plan to catch up on sleep and relaxation. .

Amiri the hustle, bustle, and Qurry of the Christihas activity, most of the ECC students find time to spend Christmas day St home. Tor some the Christmas vacationers, the holidays are a rare (gportnnity to be with their famUies.

ON CHRISTMAS DAY . . . This is the scene that the management of most of the local moloU expect this Christmas Day, as most tourist and commercial travelers will

be at home.

Local motels here In Greenville and in Farmvllle have not experienced the rush of the Christmas seas<xi that has been evident among other local business.

A recent survey of the motels here revealed that the managers are not expecting many guests during the Christmas season and especially on Christmas Day.

O. R. Batchelor, manager of the HoUday Inn here, explains that his business is commercial and that there are few tourist or salesmen on the road at Christmas. He did say however that he is expecting more business than last year.

December seems to bet he slow month for the motel business any where. Most local managers agree that as Christmas nears, tourist slow down and either stay at home for the holidays or visit with their families.

January TOings inventory time to merchants and salesmen find it hard to sell anything at this time of the year. For that reason there are few salesmen on the road.

Mrs. Robert Smith of aniths Motel In Greenville emphasized the point when she said that the management always infers free Christmas dinners to guests who are lodging there during the holidays.

She explained that this was a well known fact especially among her regular customers. Weve only had two or three to have dinner with us In 11 years." she added.

Mrs. Smith expects most of her Christmas guests to be parents visiting young married coupl e s who lack room tat tbelr apartment to put up guests. Cue bases this expectation on past ex

perience.

O. C, Noble, manager of Ken-land Motel echoed these views and says he expects things to be very slow during the holidays, adding that his business was always light during December.

The Towne House Motor Lodge manager E. Bruce Sloop says his business is running about normal for this time of year and he expects to be very slow on Christmas Day.

He did say. however, that he had had several guests just before Christmas who were both

salesmen and tourist.

Mrs. Dorothy Savage, manager of the Marlboro Inn in Parm-ville says her Christmas business will be limited to friends and family who are visiting Parmville residents who do not have adequate facilities to have such guests. She added that she didnt expect many of these.

She did say that she had placed poinsettas In each of the rooms I in the Inn and had Christmas I decorations on the doors. This is to offer a bit of Christmas at-' mosphere to possible guests._

^Civic Club PiojecW Aim At Year Round Help

By GARLAND WHITAKER Reflector Staff Writer

For the past several weeks. Civic Clubs in Greenville have been in a flurry preparing Christmas Cheer that will be felt in many ways throughout the Yule-tide season as well as through 1965.

The clubs have been busy with various projects that will finance several special Christmas p r o-grams and in several cases, perpetuate the clubs year-r o u n d program.

Kiwanis

The Greenville Kiwanis Clubs annual peahlit sale goes toward financing their year - round program that effects various segments of the society.

On the day following Thanksgiving Day, local Kiwanians began a door-to-door canvass selling one-pound bags of peanuts. This drive proved quite successful with what Chairman Ed Rawl

calls fabulous success. Rawl i said that hardly anyone turned down the chance to purch ase peanuts.

The Kiw'anians continued t h e sale by approaching local merchants. They asked these mer-ch^ts to buy peanuts to distribute to their employes as Christmas gifts.

In addition, each member j agrees to sell 20 bags of peanuts, i either buying them himself and j giving them as gifts or selling j them to his neighbors.

The overall program has prov- | ed very successful this year with ' the local club selling 7,000 pounds 1 of peanuts.

Raw'l said that this would mfean that the Kiwanis would have $1.- i 800 to $2,500 to help in their ' various prografh throughout the county.

An example of this program includes the mo-ithly support of the Speech and Hearing Patholo

gy Clinic held at the Pitt County Health Department during t h e year. '

The local Kiwanis also supports a Little League team during the summer as well as a pre-school ! kindergarten for under-privileged children.

Last year, Kiwanians bought 500 pairs of shoes through a City School System program. i They also participate in a free , milk program, through which they have purchased approxi- , mately 180 quarts of milk a week ^ during the past year.

Kiwanians help some needy individuals such as having young children fitted with glasses and have even paid the tuition of one local college girl.

Optimist

The Optimist Club of Greenville sells Christmas trees annually to carry out its slogan of Friend to the Boy.

This year the Optimist sold approximately 1,500 Christmas trees at Elm Street Park. Procedes will go toward supporting their Junior Rifle Club and their little League baseball team and other programs such as the annual Oratorical Contest which is held in the Spring.

Optimists also give financial support to the Boys Home at Lake Waccamaw and future plans call for the construction of an Optimist cottage theie.

The local Optimist help several needy boys in the county

I to go to a summer camp.

Jaycees

As a result of their annual light bulb sale, which is held j just before the Christmas sea-; son the Greenville Junior Chamber of Commerce turned over $591 to the Salvation Army to carry out the program of Christmas Cheer Baskets.

The Jaycees had their sale two weeks ago with a gross income of just under $1,400. All the profits in this sale went to the Salvation Army.

Lions Club The Greenville Lions Club distributed approximately 25 food baskets to indigent blind persons in the County this Christmas as part of their an

nual program. i Retarded Children, the Boya

In addition, they had a Christ-1 Home at Lake Waccamaw and

Best wishes fora Merry Christmas

By G.C. CHAPMAN Refiector Staff Writer

Available records indicate that first efforts to provide the streets of Greenville some form of cairistmas ornamentation were in 1930, or thereabouts.

Those efforts consisted of lights strung from pole to building or pole to pole across streets in the business distrt with little in the way of oiher decorations on poles or buildings.

The practice was continued, however, and through the efforts of the Greenville Merchants Association, was gradually expand. It has now developed into an annual, and much more attractive custom.

The idea of decorating citys business distrtot then became progressively more competitive, and in an effort to entice and interest people in the spirit oi Christmas, the Merchants Association each jrear tried to create new idea, thoughts, and tforts to improve these decorations.

Unfortunately, as the decora

tive ideas progressed and be-1 came more and more attra^ve, | it also became more and more difficult to deo)rate.

Leonard Bloxam of the Greenville Utilities Commission explains why:

The narrow streets. . .do not lend themselves to decorations. Outstanding side displays can be better exhibited on a wide street and wide streets usually require street lighting poles exactly opposite each other which again improve attachment problems.

New street lighUng. he con-tends, tends to deter from the color effect because the mercury lights have the charac-terisc of making ctdors cither show up in black or white.

Five Points further comvli-cates decorations in Greenville because of the lack of uniformity in the street pattern, he adds.

This year for the first time, the problems and pleasures of putting up the citys street dec-oratiwis was taken over by the

Utilities Commission.

With continued improvemento anticipated in the early part of 1965. and the expected renwv^ of high voltage circuits on Fifth Street, the UtiUties Commisston tried to develop the idea o uj^ tng temporary poles which c^d be removed after the decorations have been taken do^ra.

The holes in which these poles have been set wiU be covered with steel plates and the poles are to be stored for future use

All of the wood poles between Cotanche and Greene Streets, Bloxam says, will be removed and replaced with alumimum poles identical to those on Evans

Street. , w i

Decorations on the city s business streets were rented from a supply organization In California and were put up by the Utilities Commission.

Lighted angels atop green Christmas trees line the streets, and a red Christmas tree with blkiking lights sits atop the traf-

- t

fic light In the center of Five | Points. " ^

LlghU. adorned with various Christmas ornaments are stnmg across the streets, and all combine to lend a colorful. Chrlst-masy atmoAcre to the citys business section.

Decorations and Christmas trees in many erf the stores along the shopping strip on Evans Street comirfement Uie beauty of the Utilities Commissions efforts.

The lamps burning in this years decmraUcHU. Bloxam notes. are in watts the equivalent of tl energy consumed for Ught-Mg. cooking, and water heating in 20 large homes.

Power coDsuniption, therefore, is one of the problems which concerns (rfldals because during the Christmas season stores with their lighting and heating, extra lighting and decorations load the electric distribution system to the point that lighting of streets had to be carefully calculated to be sure of not complicating customer service.

Meetings were held in J u n e with suppliers of Christmas decorations to determine the best and most economical solutitm' to the problem. \

Plans were developed on paper covering the total layout and length of light strings, locations of additional poles and other changes for the installation.

When the lights are removed, the strings will each be identified as to position and locations in case the same pattern should be used again next year.

The Utilities Conunission undertook this obUgatlon. Bloxam said, with the hopes that they could contribute to the promotional efforts of the Commission and could in some small way use this as a means of extending Christmas wishes to its citizens.

Santa Had Best Beware These Days, Space Is Like Freeway

By HOWARD BENEDICT i CAPE KENNEDY, Fla. (AP) When Santa Claus makes his i chlmney-to-clmney goodwill | Journey Thursday night he may | find that space resembles a freeway at rush hour. i

He might be wise to equip his sleigh with control JeU or retro-rockets so he and his reindeer can maneuver through the jam of fast-moving satellites and space jufnk wrblted by man.

The latest count shows there are 297 man-made objects racing through space at altitudes from 100 miles to several million miles.

These are satellites, dead alive: burned out rocket

casings, and fragments of metal which have fallen off satellites or rockets. They are widely scattered and Santa should have little trouble .weaving around

them.

But hed better have his radar on the alert for a cluster of 202 small fragments which are orbiting close together. They are the fallout from a U.S. Transit navigation sateUite rocket which disintegrated in 1961.

If Santa doesnt want to become a pincushion, hed detour around the band of Project West Ford space needles. These are 400 million hair-thin copper wires, called dipoles, launched in 1962 in a communications experiment. They are about 2,000 miles up and form a continuous north-to-south belt around the earth about five miles wide and 25 miles thick.

The orbiting objects are what remain of more than 600 pieces of hardware excluding the needles and Transit debris shot into space by the United

States and Soviet Union since Sputnik 1 was launched Oct. 4, 1957.

Of the larger pieces still aloft, 259 belong to the United States, 38 to the U.S.S.R.

Thirty of the American satellites still are beeping signals transmitting weather pictures. communlcati(His signals, military information and a wealth of data on secrets of the universe. ___________

The Russians dont say how many of their satellites are operating. They do say that their Zond-2 is beeping alwig toward Mars -- as Is the U.S. Mariner 4.

The figures reflect the greater number of successful American space shots. Since the space age began, the United States has orbited 236 earth satellites, six solar satellites and hit the moon

Happy Time For Seven Orphans

How did she feel?

What did she want for Christmas?

A game. Crazy Clocks.

The seven girls are haK>y and gay, excited about Christinas.

Eleanor, 12, the oldest, summed it up:

Theres a lot of anticipation for Christmas. Everywie is so excited. I want mostly clothes. I^a, 11, wants clothes find a game, or something like that. Marie, 8, is wishing for a toy, Thimble City.

Janie, who was 7 Sunday, got a sewing set, color book and game for her birthday. For Christmas, her No. 1 choice is toy dishes.

Daily Reflector, Greenville, N. C.Thursday ,December 24, 1964A Christmas When 2 Little Strangers Visited

By JOHN G. DUNCAN

The first and truist story o Christmas was about the story the Bible tells of Jesus Christs birth at Bethlehem. Aside from this, the rest of them are but tissue paper, tinsel and ribjons. But they too have their purpose for they help to make the season bright.

They are mens contribution to the Christmas and are needful. And as all manmade things are, they too are temporal.

God knitted the iron and fiber of the tnAh of Christmas In Bethlehems stable long back. But each family has Its favorite tale and when Christmas comes, members of it often recall it as they gather together to oelebrate the day.

At our place we like to think back to two strangers we had qiend a Christmas past with

! us. They had been boarding with us for a maiUi or two when Christmas rolled around. They werent the ordinary run of boarders, they paid no rent, took up little space and didnt eat much.

So on this Chrisunas day we will no doubt remember back and Howdy spent a past of their short lives with us. And how they would perch on your shoulder and try to say a word or two in a language they alone understood.

For Rowdy and Howdy were two little squirrels you see.

When they first came to our home they were as naked as any young squirrel you have ever seen.

They were two little bits of ugliness, cold and frightened.

And quite hungry too for they hadnt eaten since their tree house had fallen that morning.

Howdy had a big cut on his head and we didnt think he would live long.

In fact both of them seemed destined to leave this world very soon.

They were cold to the touch and the warm milk squirted down their protesting little throats didnt seem to help much.

Their first night was spent in a small box and a 25 watt bulb was hung over the box to warm them.

The next morning we were surprised to find them still alive.

Once more they received a dash or two of warm milk.

They were shivering a bit when they were placed back under the light, but once the warmth from the bulb b 11 them they stretched out.

It was nip and tuck for awhile and then we realized

that their chance of returning to their wild world of trees wd wind as grown squirrels was a good possibility.

The one with the cut on his head was the most submissive of the two and seemed alwaj^ to be bobbing his head so we called him Howdy.

He drank his milk without too much fuss and never seemed to want much. Rowdy, the rough one drank greedily and did a lot (rf squirming.

So we thought be was well named. We watch closely each day for the appearance of hair to start sprouting on the naked tiny bodies and for the tight closed small eyes to open.

But these blind, uglings continued on and we began to wonder if what we had were two freeks of nature. We moved them from the shoe box to a big woo^ box with a wire door.

GIFTS FOR 03ERRY CENTER . . . The Mothers Club of Piemlng Street School prepared gilts for the OBerry Center in Goldsboro for distribution at Christmas. A check acoompanied the presents which the administration will use for the bejiefit of the children. Also, the mothers club has donated funds to Fleming Street School to be used to buy shoes lor children. Pictured are president Mable Godette, Helen Taft, Bezaline Harris, Mary Moore, Imma May,, Effie Reeves, Esther Laughinghouse, Alma Armwood and Magnolia Daniels. Other members were absent.

Another Christmas Without Hope At Home; Bob On Tour

The 25 watt bulb had grown weary of its perpetual warming caress and had to be retired in favor of a new one.

Their bellies had grown quite a bit and they were almost as wide as they were lOTg. In fact only their long raUike tails made the difference.

* Outdoor the fall had turned into winter and the winds blew loud and cold.

If the gray squirrel had any inborn notion of this change it wasnt apparent. They only snuggled closer together beneath the friendly product of General Electric and silently the fuzzy collected on their bodies.

Soon the young squirrels were gathering hair; strength and appetite at a rapid pace.

But still their eyes were closed. They began to crawl about and when you picked them up they would cling to your hand.

One December day about a week or so before Christmas a change took place.

When we picked them up one morning for their go at the milk filled eye dropper, we noticed a slight crack in their eyeUds.

At last nature had decided to give them a lo<* at the tight little world that they had dropped into via the falling of a tree.

Each day their eyes opened wider and wider and now they would climb up your pants leg and sit in your lap.

Soon Rowdy began to make It all the way up to your shoulder.

Howdy, was a little slow in getting up nerve to make it.

This small furry creature always gave you the feeling that he was looking up at you.

His head had grown to one Bide, but otherwise he was the same as his brother.

By the time the bulb had to

HOLLYWOOD (AP> Its our life, and Im used to it. I think a lot of people try to fight against the kind of life they have, and they end up making themselves miserable. Its much easier to accept the life you have, and enjoy it.

This was the philosophy of Dolores Hope as she faced another Christmas without her

husband, the ubiquitous Bob. | While he is entertaining American soldiers ki South Viet Nam, she will be spending Christmas Day at their home in North Hollywood.

! There will be no sighs, no re-I grets.

Our holiday has pretty much fallen into a routine, Mrs.

I Hope explained.

The routine is this; Before his

departure overseas. Bob spends a half-day selecting gifts of fruit to send to friends all over the United States. About 10 days before Christmas, he departs with his troupe. Mrs. Hope completes the shopping, has Christmas Eve dinner with the children. In recent years, eldest son Tony also has been on the trip with Bob.

The stay-at-home Hopes attend midnight Mass and in the morning open a few of their gifts. Then they have Christmas dinner with close friends.

Last year it was the Cros-bys, Mrs. Hope said. They wanted us to come up to their home at Burlingame this year, but it was too far for us.

Bob often calls home during his trips, but seldom on Christmas Day. Thats his busiest day; be does three or four shows in widely separated places, his wife explained. The time difference also makes it difficult.

He returns a few days after Christmas and then the celebration really begins. Assorted Hopes come out from Cleveland to join the festivities. Last year the crowd for dinner numbered 32, wy two of them non-Hopes. The family celebration continues until Epiphany, Jan. 6.

I asked Mrs. Hope if she didnt regret not having her husband home for Christmas sOTie years.

Not any more, she replied. I used to tmtU I went along on one of the tours. Since then Ive had no reservations as long as Bob is up to the trip.

Regrets? Not a one. God has been awfully good to us. Weve had a wonderful life.

LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) Christmas is the marriage season for the Peace Corps in Nigeria.

It is also a time for travel and such special projects as inspecting shrimp.

Five marriages were scheduled within a week of Christmas Day. Four united Peace Corps volunteers. The fifth joined a former corps member, Catherine Zastrow of Fort Thomas, Ky., and a Nigerian, Cement Onyemeukwe.

Most Nigerian schools close for at least a month of yuletide vacation. Since more than 500 of the 600 volunteers in the country are secondary school teachers, they have ample opportunity for Sightseeing and pa^es.

Wearing white safety helmets, the young Americans are a common sight this week buzzing over bush roads on their motor scooters.

In the corps Lagos headquarters Is a Christmas tree complete with dabs of imitation snow. The temperature is in the 80s and the tree is an evergreen bush from the front yard of the office.

We call it African pine. It has a proper name but ^nobody can remember it, said Dr. William G. Saltonstall. the corps director for Nigeria.

Beds are scarce in the nearby Peace Corps hostel as members pour into Lagos from posts in the bush. Volunteers are in more than 300 Nigerian communities.

Volunteers are expected to undertake a project either during the Christmas or end-of-term vacations. Most take these up after classes end for the year, but several were busy this week.

May your holiday be happy and your blessinga many.

be raised to the top of their , cages, their coats were almost complete.

Now they took to making strange sounds when they per^ ched on your shoulder.

Maybe they were trying to get something across to these strange creatures that were trees, givers of food and almost their entire w(^ld.

Christmas wasnt far now and we scanned to try them on solid food.

For in the mouths that gripped tightly the eyedroppers were growing a sharp set oft teeth. {

And so 00 Christmas day while we humans partook bf those things that human all around were eating, the gray squirrels were glvra half a pecan apiece.

We left them to their first encounter with the pecans and went downstairs. When we looked in on them again the bits of nut meat had disappeared. Howdy and Rowdy had made big step in the squirrel world.

And from Christmas day (m they chewed anything we put in their cage. In fact they began to chew the cage. By now they were too active for their box and we began to look forward to warm weather so we could set them free.

We let them out in the bathroom when there wasnt anything for them to diew on.

They climbed everything in sight. In particular the shower curtsdn caught their fancy.

They would sit on the bar and jump to your shoulder when you got close enough.

Goodbye

We learned that a young lady across town bad more room for them and as an added adducement two young female squirrels.

So we gave our two furry boarders away.

It seemed strange for awhile, their being gone, for we bad

grown attached to them remembering back and their young helplessness.

We went to visit them once and they remembered the the bands that once held and fed them.

S(xnetime later Howdy died and we never went back-to find out what became of Rowdy.

So as Christmas comes back again we oftien have a thought about the two little squirrels that lived awhile in our house.

And how cm a Christmas day they graduated from an eyedropper of milk to the solid chewy pecan and left behind them their babyhood forever.

And I guess that for many oi the Christmases to come we will think about Howdy and Rowdy the gray squirrels, and wcmder if there was any wisdom at all in taking them in fnn the wild.

Or is it better to leave them where you find them and let nature take care of her own in her own way no matter how harsh it seems.

But ^ at Christmas these thoughts about overlooking any creabBTe seem out of place.

For at this season somehow, all things draw together h|-mans and Gods othercreatures. just as they did long ago in a stable in Bethlehem.

Comets sufficiently bright to be seen without a telescope are rare.

4Christmas Is Transplanted Holiday In Formosa

By SAM MILLER Reflectar Staff Writer Christmas is s transplanted holiday in fsr - away Ponnosa. and tor the most part the holiday customs are unchanged, reports a Chinese student in the East Carolina College Scho<d of Music.

Miss Wti. Tsai-Hong, a Taiwanese piano major studying in this country, explained that in Christian families of China, observance ot the religious holiday follows a tsnoically Western vtr tern.

Children of non-Christian famine often exchange Christmas cards and usually take advantage of the opportunity to have fun at their own parties, she said.

However, **the custom ci exchanging gifts isnt so tmportant as in Europe and America. Instead of exchanging gifts, we exchange money.*

While Christmas U felt In Taiwan, it has none of the deep roots in tradition as does the celebration of Lunar New Year. Exchange <rf New Year Cards generally begins with the Gregorian New Year which has been officially recognised by the Nsr tionallst Chinese Oovemment.

But most of the people still observe the older Chinese New Year which this 3^ear falls near the end of January. At this time, businessmen try to have all their accounts balanced in order to begin the new year with no ^ebts.

Spirit of Newness The Chinese New Year is a day to rest, have fun. enjoy reunion and a feeling at newness that is reflected in new clothes and a newly cleaned honse. Through the time of long preparation there is an air of expectation when ham>y wlH be the children, busy will be businessmen, and busiest wiU be housewives.

Miss Wu explained that at home preparatiOD for the long festivities begins quite in advance (tf the holidays. An imp(H*-tant part of the preparaticxi is a thorovu;h housedeaning and shopping for new clotlMs for everyone In the family.

WhUe the house is being made spotless, doorway decorations (usually good luck symbols) get an annual^ change. In addition, food is prepared for the family reunion dinner on New Years Eve.

Included on the big reunico table are chicken, duck, poric and fish.

The dinner opens with toasts and best wishes for health and a Happy New Year to ^ elders. Several courses of the meal are served at one time.

Usually Chinese food is cut into small pieces, but for this time there are long-life green vegetables cut in longer than usual pieces.

Left Over Rice

We always be sure to have some rice left over usuafly some extra is deliberately co6k-ed so it can be carried into the new year. The Idea is to not use everything up In the old year.

The last course of main dishes is fish since the Chinese word for fish rhymes with the word for left over.

After the family dinner comes the highlight (rf festivities for children*ya,suel-<ihen. Parents present their children with money wrapped In bright red paper.

Children look forward to this moment because it Is a lot of money at one time for them. With the new moiiey for the new year, parents will usually say something Iflce: Now that you are a year older we hope you are wiser and will be good and will do things better than you did last year.

The money Is always u new as possible and is gotten from bsnks for this festival time.

On this night you can stay up late and drink an you Uke. There is family conversation around a portaUe earthenw are charcoal heater and you may chew oa watermelon seeds, peanuts and candies.

The only problem in waltinf up f(M* the new year is with the next day when you get up very early for the next part of the festivities.

New Year Callers

On the first of January we clean and cook as Uttle as possible." It is the custom tor the older people to wait in their homes for 3^ounger callers who

The callers will bring eome gifts to their hosts, and the gift is usually oranges which must be presented in even numbers. You may Iwing as many as 12. a lucky number.

If you want to bring aranethlng extra, you may also bring a cake and dried foods. With these gifts cotnes wishes for health, wealth and long Hie.

The town Is really popping with noises as children play with their new toys bought with the new money. Additimal noise comes from New Year Greetings from acquaintances, and everyone Is dressed in their new clothes and bats.

Dragon Dance Part of the celebration involves the traditional dragtm dance. The dragon needs at least two men, but may have three or four In It depending on size.

The dragon danoes are usually plasred before temples and in front of individual homes where families are expected to contribute money for'the ceremony.

Children set off their uoise-makers in various places to attract the dragon first to one direction and then In another. The danoe is accompanied with cymbals and Chinese gongs.

Temples are both busy and smokey. The smoke Is from Incense offered to various gods amOTg whom Is even a god for businessmen. Additional offerings Include meats, cakes, nuts and sweets.

EDITORS NOTEAn Associated Pross staffer decided to see what it wm like to be a department store Santa OausT Heres his report.

By STEPHENS BROENINO

BALTIMORE (AP) - A department store Santa CSaus wears a |100 suit, works out of the weather and makes extravagant promises for which he never will be called to account.

He sits on what can only be described aa a throne, admired by children and smiled on benignly old ladles.

But the work is not without Its hazards, as I discovered when I sat in for two hours in a downtown emporium for the regular Santa Claua.

As I dressed, the Santa supervisor quoted the price of the costume $100 for the red v^ vet suit, another $100 for the white whig and wbiskera and $22 for the black boots. ^ Try to remember yOTt*!# not only representing the atore, but to the children youre the irit of Christmas. the supervisor said. I said Id try.

Dont forget t ogive every one a balloon, he said.

The throne was surrounded by a squad of anxious children and impatient parents. Ho, bo. bo, I said bravdy. mounting the thnme, "Merry Christmas.

At that a boy broke ranks and pounoed on my lap. Im Randy, he said, pre-empting my first question.

Watcha gonna bring me for Christmas? he demanded. What would you like, I countered, trying to gain omtrol of the Interview.

Are you really Santa Claus? he asked. Ho, ho, ho. I said defensively. Cause if you IreT how come youre askin me what I want. Didnt you get my letter? he said.

During a lull, I noticed a small boy watching from a distance His clothes were patched and soiled. He was alone.

I encouraged him to eome nearer and finally coaxed him onto my knee. We established

that be was James and be was 7 years old. Well, James. X Bsld, what would you like Santa to bring for Chilstmaa.

A coat said James. A sensible choice, I thought. You like one like that? I said, pointinr to a rack of cblldrtna cl(^bes off to the right.

Herod, already troubled by the arrival and inquiries of the Wise Men, be-conie.s \sTathful when told of an ancient prophecy that the Kins: of the Jev^s will be bom in nearby Bethlehem.Matthew 2:1-6.

The Magi are sent for and questioned closely. Herod sends them on their way after*ordering their return. They find the Child, worship Him, and return. home by another route. Matthew 2:7-12.

When the Magi faU to return, Herod furiously sends soldiers to Bethlehem with orders to slay all male chUdren under age two. Warned by an angel, ths Holy Family flees to Bgyp^*" Matthew 2:13-18.

Upon Herods death, an angel appears to Joseph in Egypt telling him it is now safe to return to Israel. They settle down in Nazareth to live. Mat^ thew 2:19-23. golden TEXT: Isaiah 60:1.3.

THE

CmcnjMSTANCES SURROUNDING THE MEN AND THE INFANT JESUS

WISE

Scriptim^Matthmo f.

By R. H. RAMSEY

THE PARTICULAR event assigned to todays lesson must have occurred eome timo aft the visit of the shej^herds to the manger, for there is no indication that the Wise Men found the holy family in that humble plaoa, Perhaps they had been rlvea moro euitahle lodging Vbat time. nSw Wlso Men were of that of magi who devoted their Bves to the picrsuit of scientiflc truth and astronomy. Where lived, we do not know ex-uctly, but presumably they were Babylonians. While wo normally speak of the three "Wise ICen, there is no indication in llatthew's accoimt of the exact

unmber, only that three major gifts were presented to tbe CSulst Chad.

Msttfaew 2:2 fs a fasdnailng

ferae. Without preamble we find

these Wise Men have a knowledge that the King of the Jews has beoi bom and they have eeen a particular star which they called his.**

just five miles south of Jerusalem. He sent the Wise Men on their way with, orders to return and tell him of the Infant King so that he might also go and worship him.*

Once more on their journey, the Wise Men again found the star guiding them directly to Bethlehem and the house where the young child was. There la tremendous significance in the fact that these Wise Men, in. falling down to worship, did not worship the mother, nor the mother and chd; they worshipped him. In an the Scriptures there is no hint that any

O.J

bat the Three Persona of the Tttrdty should be worshipped.

Now the Wise Men presented their symbolic gifts: ftankln-cenae, the choicest of all odors, was offered to the Son of Ck>d; myiTh to the son of Mary, who, as a man, was subject to mortality; and gold to the Son of David, the King of Israel.

Once more, in Matthew 2:12-14, we find divine intervention in the life of the holy family.

they had read the ancient books of the Hebrews, and because all the Orient was expecting a Mes-E<ah, the Wise Men knew this star would lead them to the K'Tig for whom they searched.

Their inquiries in Jerusalem cennc to the attention of Herod, M ho was exceedingly suspicious of all who were even suppo.sed to be nval.s for his throne. Having little acquaintance with the Old Testament prophets, Herod called in men who knew the sacred writing.s well and put the Wise Mens questions to them. Turning to the book of Micah, they repeated his prophecy made 700 years previous (Micah 5:2).

If Herod Was troubled by the Wise Mens questions, he became doubly troubled'bn learning that, according to ancient prophecy, he who was to be King of the Jews would be born In the little towm of Bethlehem,

which he was warned of Herods coming vengeance and told to take the Child and His mother and escape to Eg>Tt, thera to stay until the angel returned with word it was again safe to live in Judea.

Herod, increasingly angry and suspicious regarding the birth, of the Babe in Bethlehem, and knowing, when the Wise Men failed to motives were under suspicion, sent soldiers to Bethlehem to slay all male children two years and under, thus fulfilling the prophecy of Jeremiah 31:15.

Eventually, evil Herod died and the angel summoned Joseph and Mary and the young Jesus to return to Judea, where they took up residence in the litUe, out-of-the-way tc^m of Nazareth, again fulfillingan Old Testament prophecy, this one from Isaiah 11:1.

The night was still.

All the sheep were lying on the hillside, occasionally looking to the sky where the twinkling stars could be seen dearly. AU that Is. except one young lamb.

The shepherds considered Dodo was their most troublesome charge. Several times a day, one of them had to hook his staff around Dodos neck and yank him back with the herd.

D<xlo didnt mean to be difficult. It was just that he always wnted to see what was over the next hill, and hed forget lambs werent supposed to stray.

Dodo had problems too. Getting along with the other sheep was very tiying at times. Because he was black and his curiosity got him Into so much trouble, the others tended to look down their noises at him. And If one started, they all followed.:

When this happened. Dodo woulii sigh and draw away. Sometimes hed decide to go ex-i ploring.

And thats how It came to be that Dodo went wandering on this peaceful night.

First, he gamboled to the top of the hill, being careful not to rouse the shepherds. When he reached it and looked out across the land, he was surprised at how sharply he could see every

thing.

There was a brilliant tar shining the brightw(t^ Dodo had ever seen. And it lit up tbe whole area below, almost as if it were daytime.

Then Dodo headed down the hill into the brightly lit area. He saw a Uttle village, crowded with people, and wondered why they were there.

He came to a place which seemed to be right underneath the bright star.

And when he looked around he saw a stable. There were two people, and several animals a cow, a donkey, and others. They were all looking down at something lying in a manger. Dodo couldnt see what it was, but he moved closer to find out.

Suddenly he sawthey wero all gazing down at a little baby. And Dodo looked too.

He felt so happy. He wanted to dance and run and play. Maybe, he thought, I should nra back and tell the other sheep about this so they can come and be happy too.

But then. Dodo decided not to. They probably wouldnt believe him. R would take something more powerful to convince them, thought Dodo. Maybe theyd all come later.

And 50 Dodo (luietly moved as close to the manger as he could get and, for the first time in his life lay down and Just watched.

Mrs. Mattie Wlndley, housemother, made the evergreen wreath that is being used on the front door of the house.

Chi Omega sisters hrid a house party that Indeed proved to be a busy time. The girls exchanged gifts among the sisterhood and decorated the Christmas tree. The bouse is decorated inside and out with traditional decor.

Brenda CTowell, president, commented, Since 1960. we have worked with Delta ffigma Pi members giving parties for underprivileged children highlighted wiUi visits from Santa Claus.

Among the items are Instant money packaged in a can and guaranteed non-caloric. The can warns that continued use of the contents may be habit-forming.

Other gift wrappings should be gathered up and thrown away promptly after presents are opened to iH^vent setting them afire with a cigarette or spark.

cic. Beatty, director of the Department of Public Worts, adding to Chief Jones safety tips, suggested that trash and paper frwn Christmas packages be tied into bundles and placed for pickup by the sanitation department.

Beatty said members of his department would be off Qiristmas Eve and CSirlstmas Day but would be back at work Saturday.

Were going to throw everything weve got on garbage and trash routes Saturday and Monday in an effort to try to catch up with the collections in two days, he explained.

He said that the department would handle Chirstmas trees and trash like we generally handle other items. and pick them up, as we come to them. But he added, tying trash in bundles would help speed up the collections, and said his department would appreciate the cooperation.
