Ford Intervenes In Grains Sale

By GENE CARI-SON

WASHINGTON (UPI) -Fearing a grain-drain that could push up food prices, President Ford intervened Saturday in the planned sale of scarce grains to the Soviet Union and persuaded the exporters to postpone the controversial sale.

The swift, overnight action delayed at least for the time being a deal which, in the view of economists, might have driven up farm and food prices and had a worldwide inflationary impact reminiscent of the massive Soviet grain purchases in 1972.

The National Farmers l^nion immediately condemned Fords action as an enforced embargo and "a flagrant breach of faith with the American farmer.

After an hour-long White House conference with executives of the Continental Grain Co and Cook Industries Inc.. Agriculture Secretary Earl Butz announced their very ienerous and patriotic agreement to delay the sale of 3.4 million tons of corn and wheat to the Soviets.

But he gave no details of the agreement, how long the delay would last, or whether the sale eventually would go through.

Weve asked for voluntary cooperation from the companies ;md I think it will be forthcoming. Butz said after morning conferences involving Ford, executives of the two

grain exporters, Butz, Treasury Secretary William E. Simon and other officials.

Butz said government law-vers assured the executives the sale could be stopped legally, if necessary, and the executives agreed to cooperate.

The prospective sale provoked controversial reaction as soon as it became known Friday night and Ford respond-(d with a demonstration of the so-called jawboning technique-putting the companies involved on the spot by publicizing the deal and calling a WTiite House conference to pressure for voluntary restraint.

Administration officials backed up the persuasion with a clear threat that, should it fail to work, he would consider

imposing export controls on the grain industry.

Concern over the prospective sale stemmed from the fact that drought and early autumn cold snaps have severely reduced expected yields of U.S. corn and feed grains, whose prices were already spiralling because of other economic pressures.

The heavily-criticized sale of 400 million bushels of grain to the Soviets in 1972, followed by poor harvests worldwide, had slashed U S. grain reserves and pushed U.S. domestic com prices to three times their 1972 level. In addition, the Agriculture Department estimated on Aug. .30 that this years U.S. corn crop would fall 12 per cent l>elow expectations because of bad weather.

In Washington, some people dont look where they are going. Others dont go where theyre looking.

Thats why things are in such a mess in Washington, North Carolinas senior U. S. Senator Sam Ervin told the audiance attending the flag raising ceremony officially opening Greenvilles bicentennial celebration Friday.

Sen. Ervin was the featured speaker at the 5:30 p.m. ceremony on the Town Common at the foot of Evans Street.

The Senator, who said he was glad to be here because the people of Greenville and Pitt County always treated me so fine, commended the people of Greenville for taking time out to celebrate the founding of the city, which he added, has grown to be one of the most progressive cities in North Carolina.

It is most fitting, he said, that the people of a community, state, the nation, pause for a time to consider their history.

History properly understood, the Senator commented, is a light unto our path.

Sen. Ervins talk centered around the theme Our Heritage as Americans; and emphazised that the greatness of the nation does not consist of its great wealth or the military might . . but our heritage . . . freedom.

According to the Senator, the heritage of freedom was brought to these shores by men and women who craved civil and religious freedom, the freedom denied to them by their lands or origin.

They came here, he said, because they craved freedom. Our freedom, according to Sen. Ervin, has four basic parts: political freedom; economic freedom; intellectual freedom and spiritual freedom.

'This freedom is insured he said, by our constitution, which divides power between the states

and the federal government, and which divides the power of the federal government between the Congress, the President and the Courts.

Our constitution, he explained, is a law for the people and rulers alike.

But, the statesman emphasised, eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.

I say to you today, we have got to recognize that the most solemn obligation the people of this nation have is to dedicate ourselves to the preservation of these four freedoms.

If we do not guard and defend them. Sen. Ervin emphazised; w'e will not be able to keep them.

Accept as your supreme obligation the protection of our heritage.

Following Sen. Ervins speech. Dr. Ralph Rives, president of the Pitt County Historical Society presided over the flag raising ceremony, during which five flags replicas of the five flags which have flown over the city during its existancewere raised to the top of new staffs on the town commons along-side a new flag, the banner of the City of Greenville.

The five historical flags included the British Colonial flag which flew over Greenville when it was founded; the Grand Union flag which was adopted by the Continential Confess in 1776; the Stars and Strips adopted as the national flag in 1777; the Battle Flag of the Confederacy, which flew over the city from 1861 to 1865; and the North Carolina State Flag.

Music for the opening flag-raising ceremony was furnished bv the Second Marine Aircraft Wing Band from Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station and the Rose High School Band. School choruses from North Pitt, Rose and Ayden-Grifton High Schools provided choral music.

A traditional 21 gun salute was performed by members of the 514th Military Police Company, a local National Guard unit.

The city launched a full week of Bicentennial activities on Friday with a noon civic luncheon at the Greenville Golf and Country Club.

A large gathering of civic leaders and officials attended the V.I.P. affair that was designated as the first official function of Greenvilles 200th birthday observance.

Dr. Leo Jenkins, Chancellor of East Carolina University, was generous in his tributes to the city for its role in fostering the continued growth and development of the university.

That East Carolina University is even located within the borders of Greenville today is due solely to the fact that Greenville wanted a collegiate institution more than any other Eastern North Carolina community, he said.

Jenkins explained that, When the Assembly decided early in

the century to establish a teacher training school in the East, it, in a sense, put the school up for grabs He said that the town which made the largest pledge of financial support for the proposed school was to have the institution located within its bounds. Larger cities in the East made (rffers of support for the school, the chancellor continued, but a state committee determined that the largest pledge of support had come from the City of Greenville.

Jenkins, who has served as the institutions president and chancellor since 1960, contended, This original aid was but the first small trickle of the large stream of support which has flowed out from this community to water and to nuture East Carolina University.

The effort to establish the educational facility here was not easy, he pointed out, as the "people who are fighting the medical school are the same ones who fought the teacher training school.

He cited the local media for its role in fighting to gain an educational institution here and for its continued support through the years.

The people of Greenville have been very generous to ECU. the official said, and 1 think that ECU has become the towns proudest possession.

New Storm?

MIAMI (UPI)A low pressure area which has shown some signs of strengthening into a tropical depression or storm has formed over the central Bahamas about 230 miles southeast of Miami, the National Hurricane Center said Saturday.

Right now the thing does not really have very much in the way of tropical storm charac-I teristics. said forecaster Elbert Hill. But were worried it may become * one. There are indications that it's going to strengthen some.

He said, There are any number of beautiful stories that could be told of how some of the citizens of Greenville have responded to meet the needs of the young men and women at their university.

Saying that ECU is now a senior citizen in town, Jenkins said the regard and affection which the people of Greenville have shown for East Carolina has met an equal response from the university." He added that for 67 of the 2(K) years of Greenvilles history, the university has been a proud citizen of this community.

The chancellor contended that ECU has shocked you at times, amazed you at times. In a humorous vein, he said the recent streaking incidents on campus served to bring the town and university people together. Ive never seen so many Greenville citizens on campus than during those streaking nights.

Noting that friction between towns and universities that is common in many university centers has been absent here. Jenkins said that local citizens have intermingled, understood, loved and cooperated with the university citizenry.

1 think It's wonderful that we are celebrating the citys 200th birthday. Jenkins said He said that a "society that will ignore its past does not have much of a future.

Opening remarks were offered Friday by Mayor Eugene West who urged all of the civic leaders to attend and participate in the upcoming bicentennial functions

Others taking part in the brief program were Dr Robert Holt, vice chancellor and dean at ECU, and president of the bicentennial committee, and Dr. Edwin Monroe, vice chancetfbr for Health Affairs at ECU who introduced Jenkins. ^

Dr Tom Williams, author of the bicentennial publication, "The Bicentennial Book: A Greenville Album, was Introduced to the civic leaders.

The kidnapers, holding the consulate for the eighth day with seven hostages, have withdrawn their demand for a $1 million ransom and said that their original request for freedom of 37 political prisoners can be negotiated to a lower number.

In an improvised press conference Friday night, police chief Gen. Rafael Guillermo Guzman said authorities would not negotiate with the kidnapers. It was the first time the government broke its official silence on the case.

The only possible solution is that the terrorists surrender, release their hostages safe and sound, and submit themselves to justice." Guzman said.

He said police would continue to i>ermit. however, "regular, small amounts of food and medicine."

"We suppose the kidnapers are not suicidal, and they must understand that the only uuarantee they have if they

persist in their stand is that they conserve the life of the hostages." he said.

Government authorities have cut off electricity, water, and normal telephone circuits to the building and restricted food shipments to one delivery daily.

Two persons in the building are known to be in poor condition Police said an unidentified guerrilla was wounded accidentally in the leg, and Venezuelan vice consul Waldemar Alvarado is suffering from an unspecified chronic affliction which requires continual medication.

Police allowed the U.S.. Spanish and Venezuelan ambassadors to deliver food, water and medicine to the consulate once a day. The food ration daily is one sandwich per person plus two cups of water.

Among the other hostages, in addition to Miss Hutchison, a 37-year-old information officer, and Alvarado, include the Venezuelan consul, a Spanish priest, and three Dominican employes of the consulate.

State AAUW Convention Held Here

Will Sink Cypriot Ship

GUERNSEY, Channel Islands (UPI) A drifting and crewless Cypriot freighter, crippled by fire and carrying 150 tons of dynamite, threatened navigation in the English Channel Saturday. The French navy said it would sink the vessel by aerial bombing.

An overnight fire which crippled the 450-ton Ammersee burned itself out Saturday morning but French naval authorities in Brest decided to send out planes to sink the ship because it endangered navigation.

Channel port authorities, fearing an explosion, ordered other vessels to stay away.

Dr. Campbell, Director of Public Affairs of the University of Nebraska, spoke at the Ramada Inn on the topic Which way to the future?

Before making her scheduled speech. Dr. Campbell said. Questions that we particularly wish, to raise are whether we are willing to sacrifice quality for life and shall we protect natural resources or exploit them?

I have seen at the AAUW international meeting in Tokyo this year, Dr. Dampbell continued, Tbat not only do we have a great difficulty un

derstanding cultures but also arranging relationships that allow diversity and unity with other nations.

In explaining the future plans of AAUW to help solve international difficulties Dr. Campbell said, We plan to become more active in an international federation to rejuvenate a general support of the United Nations.

We cannot sacrifice the responsibilities we have to make America a nation with quality. We must work even beyond our borders in the areas of economics, education, and social welfare, Dr. Campbell said.

Several sessions were held Saturday as part of the three-day long meeting, with a number of well known leaders in various fields taking part, including Mrs. Adelaide Stegman, South Atlantic Regional vice-president; Dr. Nancy Joyner,

GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) A delinquency petition charging a 13-year-oId boy with rape has been dismissed because of a century-old ruling that boys under age 15 are incapable of rape.

Judge Gordon Gentry dismissed the complaint, which had charged the youth with second degree rape. Conviction would have carried a mandatory life sentence.

In 1864 the North Carolina Supreme Court dismissed rape charges against a 14-year-old, citing i^ysical impotency in youths of that age.

Americans In Food Lines?

ASHEVILLE, N.C. (AP) Agriculture Commissioner Jim Graham predicts that Americans might have to stand in line for food unless enough natural gas is provided to manufacture fertilizer.

I dont want to panic but Ill tell it like it is. We might have to line up for food like we had to line up for gas, he said. You heard about the fertilizer shortage this past year...Well if they dont give us some natural gas, you aint seen nothing like what were going to have this winter.

Graham, who was in Asheville to dedicate an animal disease center Friday, said a fertilizer shortage would cut farm production and endanger the nations food supply.

He also expressed concern that inflation would drive many farmers out of business.

Edmisten Case Delayed

RALEIGH (AP)Settlement of Democratic attorney general candidate Rufus Edmistens tax problems is being delayed because of political considerations, Charles Smith, Edmistens campaign manager, said Friday.

After a Friday meeting between Edmistens representatives and an auditor in the state Revenue Department, both sides said the negotiations are continuing and no decisions have been reached.

May Increase Gas Tax

ASHEBORO, N.C. (AP)A predicted shortage in highway funds may require a one-or two-cent per gallon state gasoline tax increase, state Transportation Secretary Troy Doby said Friday.

He said the department may be short $48 million in the fiscal year beginning July 1,1975. He said increasing the states nine-cent gas tax would help make up the deficit.

If the department determines the increase is needed, the 1975 General Assembly may be asked to raise the tax or provide the funds in another way, Doby said.

In a news conference while attending a meeting of the state Transportation Board in Asheboro, Doby said inflation is the cause of the predicted deficit. He said there is a chance that the shortage wont devele^ or be as bad as anticipated now.

Doby also said the department is considering alternate methods of raising additional money such as higher license tag or drivers license fees. A final decision hasnt been made, he said.

Suggest Fixing Milk Prices

RALEIGH (AP)Fixing of retail and wholesale milk prices by the state Milk Commission was suggested Friday by representatives of dairy farmers.

The farmers asked a legislative study committee for statewide unifom retail and wholesale milk prices and told the committeeut would help improve the image of milk regulation.

V Colvard. manager of the North Carolina Milk Pro-

iideration, said retail and wholesale price controls are ed to establish new public confidence in regulation of the industry. The state Milk Commission has the authority to set those prices but hasnt used the power.

Also, Edwin Greble, a Rowan County dairy farmer, told the committee the state Farm Bureau may ask for an increase in the price of milk paid to farmers. The Milk Commission now requires farmers to be paid $10.62 per hundred pounds of milk and a $1 increase is being considered, he said.

A hundred pounds of milk is about im gallons. A $1 increase to farmers would raise retail prices about a nickel a half-gallon if wholesalers and retilers didnt increase their profits as well.

May Fight Ruling

RALEIGH (AP)Abbott Laboratories of Rocky Mount, N.C., one of the worlds four leading drug companies, is expected to decide next week whether to fight an adverse appeals court ruling

If the company decides to fight, the case would be taken to the U.S. Supreme Court

The company and five executives were charged in a 60-count criminal indictment last May in a case involving shipment of contaminated intravenous solutions. Federal health officials have said the solutions were responsible for at least 50 deaths and hundreds of blood poisoning cases throughout the country.

SAIGON (UPI) - Government troops dodging heavy Communist mortar fire struggled Saturday to hold an outpost that they recaptured after 82 days of fighting only 25 miles north of Saigon.

The Saigon command said its troops moved into the outpost after logistical problems forced the North Vietnamese to

withdraw and were immediately blasted by 67 rounds of

Communist mortar fire that killed one soldier.

The base was recaptured Friday at .3 p.m., command spokesman Lt. Col. Do Viet said. During those months of fighting, our forces suffered 100 either killed or wounded As of now. fighting is still going on 100 yards from the base.

The command .said the Saigon forces killed at least 60 North Vietnamese

Begins Property Tax Structure Study

RALEIGH (AP)A legislative committee studying North Carolinas property tax structure probably wont finish its work by its Dec. 1 deadline. Chairman Jim Long said Friday.

The committee was to begin hearings July 1, but didnt get started until Friday. It is scheduled to present recommendations to the governor and General Assembly by Dec. 1.

Of primary concern to the committee Friday was a circuit breaker system of easing the property tax load on low income groups. Such a system is used in about 30 states. It refunds property taxes once the bill goes beyond a certain percentage of the familys personal income.

The committee is looking for tax relief for the elderly and low income families and may recommend changes in the tax on mobile homes, motor vehicles. household furnishings and personal effects. It is also expected to develop a system of cooperative county-state property revaluation to replace the current system of hiring private firms for the job.

D.R. Holbrook, director of the. property tax division of the state Department of Revenue, told the committee that current property tax relief programs for low income families are eroding the tax bases bf many counties.

He said the programs have cut county revenues by 12 per cent since they were enacted in 1973. He also said the current system requires excessive ad-

ministrative effort and cost.

The circuit breaker system would give low income groups a tax break from the state and the counties together rather than from the counties alone.

Second on the committees priority list is the revaluation problem. State law requires counties to reassess property values every eight years.

Holbrook told the committee that private appraisal firms generally have given poor service. Also, he predicted most of those companies will be out of business in five years because of personnel problems and inflation.

He also said revaluation every eight years isnt frequent enough to ensure equitable taxation and urged an ongoing revaluation program.

HONOLULU (UPI) - Orientals made the strongest bid in Hawaii history for all of the states top offices in a primary election Saturday.

Hawaiis congressional incumbents up for re-election, all Americans of Japanese ancestry, faced certain victory in this Democratic stronghold, where nomination in the Democratic primary is often tantamount to election.

All of the attention focused on the hotly contested gubernatorial race were George Ariyoshi, the lieutenant governor who became acting chief executive a year ago, sought to become the first Japanese American elected governor of a state.

'The polls close at 6 p.m Hawaii time, midnight EDT.

The 48-year-old son of a sumo wrestler hoped to fulfill Hawaiis version of the American dream by a nomination in the primary, assuring victory in the general election Nov. 5.

An Ariyoshi victory would

make Hawaii tthe first state with Orientals holding all of the top offices. The gubernatorial victor will become the states first new governor in 12 years, the third since statehood.

The boyish looking Ariyoshi inherited the acting governors job when (Jov. John A. Burns was struck with cancer, and has emerged from the initial skepticism surrounding his leadership to a man almost everyone trusts.

But he faced a tough primary battle against Honolulu Mayor Frank F. Fasi, a Hartford, Conn., native with a flamboyant style, former Lieutenant CJover-nor Thomas P. Gill, the champion of the partys liberal cause, and state Senator David McQung.

Republican frontrunner Randolph Crossley was seen as having virtually no chance of toppling the Democratic nominee.

With only about 316,000 of the more than 800,000 persons living in Hawaii registered to

vote. Arjyoshi had "ktrong support fi^om Japanese Americans. the largest single ethnic group voting in the primary, while Fasi and Gill were strong among cucasians.

Although a U S Senate seat and two U.S. House seats are also up for grabs, the incumbents are considered unbeatable this year. Sen. Daniel K. Inouye, the two-term veteran who gained national popularity as a member of the Senate Watergate Committee, and Rep. Spark Matsunaga, seeking his seventh term, were both unopposed in the primary and considered sure winners in the general election.

Rep. Patsy T. Mink, running for a ^sixth term, faced only token opposition in the primary and general election. Hawaiis other senator is Republican Hiram Fong, of CTiinese ancestry, whose term is up in 1976.

Even the lieutenant governorship was considered sure to go to a Japanese American, former Judge Nelson Doi.

ECU Med School Plans

Temporarily Blocked

By The Associated Press A disagreement between planners and Pitt County Memorial Hospital officials has temporarily blocked expansion plans for the medical school at Elast Carolina University.

The problem is that hospital officials and planners have been unable to agree on a

teaching service at the hospital.

Hospital officials have balked at assigning 75 beds in the hospital to the medical teaching service. They said in a letter on the matter this week they would be willing to let the school have access to all 370 beds in the hospital as long as attending physicians and patients allowed it.

Fear Soybean Damage

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) North Carolina agriculture officials fear that the states late maturing soybean crop may have been damaged severely by the early frosL

About 20 per cent of the states 35 million bushel soybean crop was still in the fields when the record-lows struck earlier this week.

We cant say how much of it was damaged, because it takes three or four days to show up, said Curtis Tarleton of the North Carolina Department of Agriculture.

Dr. Christopher Fordham. dean of the University of North Carolina medical school, is in charge of planning expansion of the ECU medical program. He said earlier this week that the school must have a hospital teaching service to be accredited. V

Hospital officials said in their letter to the planners that their staff is confused as to what is needed Dr John Wooten, the hospitals chief of staff, said he believes the two sides will be able to settle the matter, and called the problem a technicality.

ECU has a one-year medical program and the planners have until Nov. 15 to submit an expansion proposal to the University of North Carolina board of governors.

Bicentennial Special Edition

Today The Reflector presents a special edition which commemorates the 200th anniversary of Greenvilles founding.

Six sections with 64 pages are included with the regular sections which make up the Sunday Daily Reflector.

Within the special sections readers will find what we feel are some fascinating articles prepared by our staff writers.

Many of the original documents that shaped the developing state of North Carolina are included in this edition.

Readers will find portions of original front pages of The Daily Reflector which reported world shaking events. They were reproduced, with some difficulty, from microfilm copies of the originals. We believe that they are of such interest in their original form that we reproduced them, blemishes, and all.

Many photc^raphs went into the special sections, some old and some taken by our photographers to illustrate stories. There is original art work done by some of the talented artists in the Greenville area.

We cant begin to thank everyone individually who has been so helpful to us in compiling the information and illustrations for this bicentennial edition. So we hope it will suffice here if we express our heartfelt thanks to all who contributed to this

THIS AFTERNOON

project.

We would urge our readers to prepare to spend considerable time with todays edition. In fact we feel, that the reading time can be spread over several days to get the most out of the edition. Then we would recommend saving it, for we believe it will be a welcome addition to anyones collection of Greenville and Pitt County information.

The Daily Reflector bicentennial edition has. been many months in preparation. We hope our readers find it enjoyable.

Tax Revision Is Often Talked, Seldom Done

Tax revision is oft talked about but seldom done, and it appears that chances of tax revision are slim prior to the Congressional recess for the November elections.

The tax revision bill is stalled in the House Ways and Means Committee at present. You can bet that the urgency for real tax reform will be less, following the election.

So it goes. Our tax structure is creaky and unfair in some cases, but little is done about it. Only talk.

Humor Protects Sanity

What Monitor?

Newsmen gathered for a press conference and were awaiting the usually late governor. Banter and chatter turned to the subject of an earlier news conference

about the ironclad gunship Monitor located off the coast of North Carolina recently. The Monitor sank during a storm over 100 years ago. during the Civil War.

TV Newsman Jack Satterfield had been out sick lately, and hearing the talk about the Monitor asked r WTiat about the Monitor Is there something new? She sank, columist Jack Aulis drawled without a grin.

As the high holy day for Jews. Yom Kippur, occurred recently, the story went around a governmental office about a caller who wanted to talk to a state official, who happens to be Jewish.

Im sorry, the receptionist told the caller. He is not in. This is Yom Kippur. Well, listen Yom. . .when he comes back, would you give him a message. . . came the other voice.

DOT

Under reorganization of state departments, the old State Highway and Public Works Commission signs disappeared from the sides of yellow highway trucks all across the state.

The familiar SH&PWC symbols were replaced by stick-on labels with the letters DOT; meaning Department of Transportation.

Up in western North Carolinas 14th division, this changeover took place about the time that incoming Republicans were firing a lot of veteran Democrats in the highway operation.

Sylva Newsman Jim Gray says he was talking to one such fired engineers wife when he noticed the DOT sign on a truck passing.

What does that mean?

Gray wondered out Democrats Out Temporarily. was the ready response.

50 Drive 55 A friend of Ted Harrison, state publicist recently fired at the Department of Transportation and now working at the Department of Hunian Resources, says he saw one of those 50 Drive 55 bumper stickers on a car upside recently, and it made more sense that way. Harrison, who swore off thinking up bumper sticker slogans after that fiasco, hasnt given up puns.

When somebody wondered aloud about his shifting jobs, but staying in government, while President Fords press secretary had left government work, Harrison figured, Thats a ter Horst of a different color.

The INSIDE REPORT

The Economic Deadlif

By ROW LAND EVANS and ROBERT NOVAK WASHINGTON-With time running out on a harassed President Ford as he nears his self-imposed Monday deadline for overdue economic proposals, he has solved neither of his twin problems: how economic policy will be made and what that policy shall be.

Contrary to public impression, Secretary of the "Treasury William Simon is not in chargeor even close to it. Simon is viewed from the Oval Office primarily as an economic spokesman. The Presidents right arm in coordinating economic policy is L. William Seidman, the longtime Ford insider who is nevi both to Washington and the infinite subleties of macro-economics.

Lacking both staff and policymaking machinery, Seidman this week is trying to turn an indigestible collection of economic options into a coherent program to be presented to Congress

by Mr. Ford next Monday. At this writing, there is neither consensus nor the beginnings of a program.

Thus, the eight weeks between Mr. Fords accession to the presidency and the conclusion of the economic summit have been squandered with few bisible results. At the conclusion of the summit, he had but ten days somehow to pull his makeshift policymaking apparatus together and force it to produce an anti-inflation program.

But the beauty of the self-imposed ten-day deadline is this: it compels the administration to flee from the economic never-never land which has encased the White House most of the last six years. It represents belated insistence by the Presidents closest political aides that government economists finally face up to the real world and propose something, even if that something is far from perfect.

Mr. Fords politicians and economists clashed last week in the final days before the summit conference. His economists had prepared for the President a conference-closing speech which did no more than acknowledge the existence of economic problems; his non-economist aides insisted onand gota substitute speech with meat on it: the ten-day pledge of action.

Moreover, counselor Robert Hartmann, the longtime Ford staffer who is unversed in economics but wise in the ways of Washington, insisted that a deadline had to be set for proposals or nothing would ever be proposed to the potential ruin of the Ford presidency. Actually, Hartmann originally wanted only a seven-day deadline.

Hartmann and counselor Jack Marsh, another old hand on Mr. Fords vice presidential staff, have pushed hard on the theme that Mr. Ford must hurry up on a program to maintain credibility with Congress and the public. This view is shared by the new White House staff coordinator, Donald Rumsfeld, like Hartmann and Marsh a veteran of Capitol Hill

They look to neophyte Seidman as the best hope to

Strength For Today

FROM NOWHERE 'TO SOMEWHERE

The passing of time fills us with a sense of the transitory nature of life. We pitch our tents somewhere today, and tomorrow we move on. Or, to change the figure, life is like a great stream coming out of the mysterious invisible and plunging into the dark and unknowable future. Life has about it a flow, a change, a transitory aspect that nothing can change.

Therefore, we must have something in our lives that gives us security and purpose

apply the lash to sluggish economists and bureaucrats for faithful execution of the Presidents wishes. But Seidman is viewed by skeptical economic experts as a Grand Rapids, Mich., millionair accountant experienced in neither economic policy nor Washington politics (a big man from the small town, sneers one veteran high-level bureaucrat).

Indeed, Seidman stumbled in the closing hours of the summit last Saturday when he publicly conceded that a new lOcent gasoline tax was one option considered by Mr. Forda costly political blunder five weeks before the election. Key Republicans in Congress angrily informed the White House that this had prematurely surfaced opposition and may have permanently ruined all chances for the gas tax, which ultimately may prove necessary both to raise revenue and conserve energy.

The gas tax was buried again by Monday, but policymaking was reduced to sheer chaos. High-level meetings pored over endless lists of options, trying to divide them into short-range, middle-range and long-range. For example, the Federal

Sunday Morning Notes

Hal Smith, a school counselor, passed on his observations on Greenville 200.

For what its worth department, he wrote. For the past few months Ive been noticing with interest the

signs and comments announcing the coming of the Greenville 200. At first, it was not clear what or who was the 200. Were we planning a stock-car race (as Daytona 500) of 200 miles on our nearly completed belt line, a go-

kart demonstration of 200 laps around Pitt Plaza, or 200 times around the Central Business District looking for a parking space? I even considered a possible division of the first families where a splinter group from the Social registers 400 wished to be twice as elite.

Public Forum

To the editor

This morning I was awakened by a couple of the kids who wait out in front of my house for the school bus. They told me that the dog catcher had just picked up my dog and childs dog in front of my house. I went to the pound and was told that the reason my dog was picked up was that he did not have a $6.00 city tag. I did not know that a city tag was required, nor did my vet ihform me of it. It seems many other people were also unaware of this, as the dog catcher proudly said that he had already picked up hundreds of dogs because they did not have city tags.

My first complaint is about my dog being picked up in the street right in front of my house. My dogs name and address is on the back of his rabies tag, and yet the dog 4 catchers did not come to my door to tell me I was at fault. The child whose dog was also picked up right before his eyes could not stop the dog catchers from picking up his dog. My second complaint is concerning the tag itself. If the new humane society wants all the dogs of Greenville registered, then they should ask all dog

owners to come to the pound and register their dogs instead of picking up dogs. 'Thirdly, and most important, why is it that I and at least several other hundred dog owners, did not know about the city tag? Fourthly, why does a city tag cost the exorbitant price of $6?

I offer the suggestion that the necessity of the city tag be made known to all citizens of Greenville, not just in the paper, but also at grocery stores. Post Offices, theatres and regularly visited public areas. If not publicized in that fashion, the city or pound should notify each citizen by mail. My second suggestion is that the tag not cost $6. It could not possibly cost $6 to produce that stupid, nonfunctioning tag. Thirdly, dogs with collars and a tag of some sort should not be picked up in his own neighborhood or on the ECU campus and hauled off to the pound. As far as I can tell, only unowned or sick dogs are un(ler the juristiction of the poind. Not healthy, obviously loved, obviously owned, obviously in-the-right-place dogs.

Riddle

Solvers

By ED ROGERS WASHINGTON (UPD - As if rain, snow, heat, gloom of night, snarling dogs and their snarling masters werent enough, mailmen have to puzzle now and then over a letter bearing an address that might confound a cryptographer.

A rural carrier at North Windham. Conn.. got a letter postmarked Texas with this for an address;

The White House on the hill that needs painting. A Small Tow'nd'next to a lot of small towns. Just past the bridge that goes over the little river. Right across the street from the house that was for sale the last time I was home. 06256.

The ZIP code got it to Connecticut instead of the dead letter office The carrier, who knew his territory, delivered the ltter at the proper address three days after it was mailed.

The Postal Service, which gets plenty of citizen complaints that the second half of its title is a misnomer, has happily compiled a dossier of recent successes in delivering obscurely addressed mail.

Some veteran mail sorters and carriers are prized for their uncanny ability to solve address riddles, and are known in the system as nixie clerks. a nickname of long-forgotten origin.

Dead letter offices have a crew of handpicked nixie clerks, whose job includes doing their best with piles of mail damaged in fires, plane crashes or other mishaps. But the cases cited in the dossier all were solved by resourceful regular sorters and carriers handling routine mail.

Consider this address on a letter that turned up in the post - office at Elk Horn, Iowa: 22 3 51531.

Variety Stores Had To Adjust

in the midst of this great universal flow. Writing to his fellow Ctiristians from the Bleak isle of Patmos, John told them that in a vision the Almighty had said to him: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. If the revelation had been made in English, it would have been: I am A and Z, the beginning and the end.

We have to believe in a God who is everything, everywhere, and is interested in everybody if we would have meaning and purpose to a life constantly in flux.

by Eitoha Doaglasi

By LEE MI'TGANG AP Business Writer NEW YORK (AP) - The last two decades havent been kind to that old familiar Main Street fixture, the five-and-dime store.

In the 60s, they faced sudden competition from the new discount stores and mounting consumer demand for a onestop shopping center with jrfenty of parking.

Now in the 70s, big general merchandisers like Woolworth, W.T. Grant and S.S. Kresge see property taxes soaring in downtown locations, making giant, high-volume outlets in shopping malls even more attractive.

'This combination of factors has forced national variety chains to alter radically, and often painfully, their basic merchandising philosophies, some of which, like

Wool worths, evolved over nearly a century.

Not that variety outlets have become unprofitable albatrosses in every case. But few national retailers seem interested in building them anymore.

We havent opened up a variety-type store in five years, a spokesman for W.T. Grant says. The national retailers have left that field to smaller regional concerns. The big companies are getting the hell out of it.

The name most synonymous with the five-and-dime concept, F.W. Woolworth, still had more than 1,600 variety outlets as of April 30, but that was 51 fewer than a year aga They anticipate another 50 to 60 closings in the current year.

Woolworth, like the other national giants, has been con

centrating its expansion programs on its 100,000 square f(X)t-plus Woolco, one-stop shopping centers located for the most part in suburban shopping malls. Woolco stores have grown in number from 192 in 1973 to 230, about 17 per cent of total Woolworth-owned stores and that percentage is growing.

S.S. Kresge, which once had 745 Green Front Kresge Stores of the fiveand-dime type in the mid-1930s, now has only 379 in the United States. They are in a holding pattern, a spokesman says, planning to maintain and modernize existing variety stores. But expansion energies will be spent on longer, one-stop K-Mart discount outlets which will soon outnumber smaller, variety outlets by about two-to-one.

About half of W.T. Grants

L-172 outlets fall under the smaller variety heading, a spokesman estimates, but that percentage is shrinking as the company builds mwe and more giant Grant City outlets.

These moves, which changing consumer demand and inflation have forced on retailers, continue to face the national chains with enor ntous challenges.

Kresge appears to have adjusted well. Over all sales were up about 19 per cent in the first half of 1974, while net iocome grew by about 14 per cent. Kresges relative health, compared with Woolworth and Grant, is in part due to its being the first to sense about 12 years ago the growing consumer demand for large, onestop discount centers in suburban locations.

A Dour View Of Defense

PRINCETON, N.J.At a time when inflation is the dominant concern of the American people, nearly half (44 per cent) of all persons interviewed in the latest'survey believe the U.S. is spending too much for defense find military purposes. About one person in eight, 12 per cent, says the amount being spent is too little, while32 per cent believe theamount is about right,

Both the Senate and House recently approved an $82.6 billion defense appropriations bill, the largest appropriations bill ever passed by Congress.

In the survey, persons with a college background and younger adults are found to be most in favor of a cut in spending. A majority of 55 per cent of college-trained persons think defense spending is excessive, while52 per cent of young adults (18 to 29) share this opinioa Some political differences are found, with Democrats and independents more likely than Republicans to favor a cut in defense spending.

Here is the question asked in the survey:

There is much discussion as to the amount of money the government in Washington should spend for national defense and military purposes. How do you feel about this? Do you think we are spending too little, too much, or about the right amount?

Here are the findings for the nation and key groups:

Dramatic Changes Noted Current survey evidence indicates that a dramatic change in public attitude on military spending has come about since 1960.

In April of that year, during a period of relative peace, only 18 per cent of Americans believed the U.S. to be spending too much for defense. Twenty-one per cent said too little, while 45 per cent thought the amount being spent was about right Still earlier, just before the outbreak of hostilities in Korea, more than six out of ten voters favored an increase in our outlay for national defense.

Prior to World War II, in the face of Hitlers growing power in Germany, the public expressed concern over the inadequacies of our defense program and called for greater expenditures for this program.

The results reported today are based on a total of 1,583 persons, 18 and older, who were interviewed in person by trained Gallup personnel working in more than 300 scientifically selected localities across the nation. Interviewing was conducted SepL 6-9.

a local high school athlete had broad-jumped 22 feet, 3 inched in the Drake Relays. The athlete proved to be the proper addressee.

Some letter writers evidently fry to test the skill of postal employes deliberately. Lawrence Guillery, a law student at Louisiana State University, addressed a letter simply Weetsie 70535. It was delivered promptly to his mother, Weetsie Guillory of Eunice, La., where the foreman of mails happens to be her husband, Murphy.

An envelope inscribed, To the Most Wonderful Husband in the World. obviously was not intended for mailing. A woman in Clinton. Md., apparently had written an affectionate note to give her husbanS on Cliristmas Day, but inadvertently mailed it with a batch of Christmas cards.

Postal employes noticed the handwriting in red and green ink matched that on the cards, so they returned the note using the return address on the cards

When a computer went berserk it printed out this address on an envelope:

In two days the letter was correctly delivered to Skip Johnson, an environmental writer for the Charleston (W Va.) Gazette. There are almost six columns of Johnsons in the (Charleston telephone book and were still wondering how the post office did it, the newspaper told its readers.

DISNEY WORLDThere once was a time, unlikely as this may seen, when I briefly owned a cow. Or vice versa. This was a real, live cow, with four legs, four faucets, and a belligerent look on her homely face. Her name was Tugboat Annie, and her game was kicking buckets.

Time tends to plaster over a checkered past I had not thought of Annie for nearly 30 years. But the memory of those baleful eyes and that bawling bullhorn voice came back a week ago, when I went with several hundred milk producers who had come to Disney World to drown their troubles in Grade A homogenized Scotch. I had one Annie. 'The dairy farmers have 10 million Annies, more or less, and they all spell trouble.

Alan Greenspan, the Presidents doctor of public relations, recently told a gathering of poor people that percentage wise, stockbrokers are suffering worse than any other group. Dr. Greenspan has not met the milkmen. All farmers have it rough. But some have it rougher than others. These days, if you are into milk, you are into misery.

Part of the problemthe least part, but the most painful partis a problem of public image. Say milk in Washinton, and the media boys begin to snort and roll their eyes. It isnt fair, but who says life is fair? My brothers of the press see the milk producers as a gang of wheeler dealer salesmen with quarts of cream to give away. A suspicion remains that back in 1971 the milkmen

were bent on bribing a president Campaign records suggest that they are out to butter up every guy in towa Even Peter Rodino, whose Newark constituents never have seen a cow, got a bucket of campaign cash.

Presumably, Rodino-n*tB on the cream list because his Judiciary Committee handles antitrust bills. The milkmen know all about antitrust bills. They are up to their udders in antitrust suits. These proceedings might be bearable if the industry were grazing in high clover, but the industry is down to crab grass and thistles.

Sen. Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin dug up some doleful statistics. Twenty years ago Wisconsin had 127,000 dairy farmers. Today there are fewer than 53,000. Eighty percent of the Wisconsin farm operators are over 45 and 38 percent are 55 or older. Over the past 19 months, 3,800 dairy farmers have gone out of business in Wisconsin alone. In the nation as a whole, the number of milk producing farms is expected to drop from 400,000 today to 200,000 by 1980.

The reasons are economic. In the past couple of years, dairymen have witnessed a 100 percent increase in fertilizer costs. The price of feed concentrates recently jumped 18 percent in a single month. Between 1948 and 1972 net farm income went up by 21 percent; farm wages went up by 400 percent.

These burdens too might be bearable if domestic demand were soaring also. Alas, the milk producers are plagued by imported com-

Some addresses are thousands of miles wide of the mark but still are delivered correctly, the Postal Service said. One letter addressed to Larry Lawcock had his name misspelled, the wrong street address and the wrong city. Only the ZIP code, 96910, was right.

It was addressed to Houston, Tex. Lawcock lived in Agana, Guam, but he got the letter anyway.

A man in Silver Spring, Md., received a letter from a friend in Switzerland who could not remember the address so he drew a map on the envelope with a question mark indicating the correct street. 'The Postal Service said it was delivered two days after it was postmarked.

No Unity Seems Likely For Any Ford Plan To Protect The Economy

Abuse of the freedom of speech ought to be repressed; but to whom are we to commit the power of doing it?Benjamin Franklin.

By GEORGE BRYANT, JR.

It is possible, of course, that President Ford can chart and follow a course which will keep the economy from fetching up on the rocks. But its going to take some real doing.

Whatever new game plan the President proposes during the coming week has got to win wide acceptance if it is to be effective. This is where the rub will come. Involved will be unwanted changes in the way we work, live and do business'.

'Theres no doo.bt the nation is fed up with constantly rising retail pricesthe end result of inflation This was the one concensus which emerged from the recent economic summit conferences.

Nevertheless, all this confusion and disorganization is preferable to the lassitude of the last eight weeks.

Here, too, the summits were revealing. The big special interest pleaders, which have tremendous in-fleuence in Washington, struck a business as usual stanceout to hold what they have and grab all they can. And whats more, some of these pleaders had down-the-line backing from key members of congress, especially from the Democratic side, which holds the power*

'The insistence on take and the lack of give during the summits did much to add to the increasing gloom about the future. It adds to the feeling that the Republican President will be unable to put his program over with the Democratic majority in Congress

Ford tests in Congress so far have shown him in a weak position. Nelson Rockefeller is slow to win approval as Vice President. 'The Senate has voted against Ford on Turkey. And where moneyjs involved. Congress has shown no sign of yielding.

Ford lost his bid for a three-month delay in raising government pay. 'True, this makes little direct impact on the inflation picture. But it could have set an example of restraintat least a token gesture.

And there was no hesitation to saddle the taxpayer with a bigger subsidy for the benefit of ocean shippers and labor. 'This came on a vote to require much more imported oil to be carried in American tankers. For this, the unions made hefty political contributions reportedly more than $600,000 divided among about one-third of the members of the House and Senate.

'This shows labors weight and means that any moves to weaken union power to drive up wages doesnt have much chance. It also mean that laboropposed changes in the tax laws to encourage investment will have rough going

Then, theres that little noticed move in the House Ways and Means Ck)mmittee

to build a new tax loophole for the exclusive benefit of Congressmen. 'They can now write off $3,000 of income as Washington living expense. 'The proposal would tie this to the cost of living index, retroactively. The result would be an immediate jump to $7,000 and automatic adjustments from now on. i

Ford anti-inflation proposals which require action by Congress will have to wait until after the November elections. It might be that while members of the ftouse and Senate are home campaigning they will get the word, come back to Washington and act. But it should be recalled that lame duck sessions are not remembered for what they have done.

This leaves a rather disappointing prospect of more months of drift, with only the brake on spending as an anti-inflation weapon. Meantime, prices will continue up, raising the odds on a real bust.

A glass of cold milk is the most wholesome natural food in the world, but to some doctors milk spells cholesterol, obesity, and the galloping botts. Between the Dutch and the botts are the bankers, hiking their interest rates. Every time the milkmen raise their price, they stand accused of exploiting little children.

I got rid of my Tugboat Annie, but the professional producers are stuck with theirs. They cant even give their herds away. Here in the fantasy realm of Disney World, these are hard realities to dispel. Unlike Annie, they seem to be here to stay.

The Walking Mall Plan Based On Old Principle

In Atlanta only suicidal maniacs and Lester Maddox jaywalk. But in Greenville everyone jaywalks. And no one seems to get hurt. The only jaywalking casualty that Ive witnessed was a woman who sprained her ankle when she ran too fast and fell off her platform shoes. However, jaywalking does frustrate the driverIve slammed on the brakes for jaywalkers so many times that I have a permanent impression of a steering wheel on my stomach.

The other day I was explaining to r?iy friend, Louise, why the city has decided to turn downtown Greenville into a walking mall. Realizing that the plannng theories behind this decision were too complex for me to adequately explain all by myself, I decided to take her on a jaywalking tour of the downtown.

(Xir first stop was Evans Street. 'There are basically two types of jaywalkers in Greenville, I explained in my most knowledgeable voice. "The first type is the Evans Street Jaywalker. As a general rule, the Evans Street Jaywalker is a nonstudent with a deep respect for the power of a car and a chicken at heart. 'Theres one now.

I pointed to a well-dressed business man crouched between two parked cars. His eyes were shifting back and

forth between the traffic and the policeman stationed on the corner. Finally, the policeman turned his head, the traffic subsided, and the businessman sprinted across the street like someone had dropped a hot spark plug down his pants.

Are you sure hes not a disguised terrorist? Louise asked. I bet he just planted a bomb in that shoe store.

I doubt it, I said. Hes the manager.

Our next stop was Cotan-che. We had to stop. Eight people were in conference in the middle of the road.

Guess what this is, 1 said to Louise.

Its a demonstration against the soap industry. she answered confidently Nope, I said. Its the second type of jaywalker, the Cotanche Street Stander. Now watch this.

I politely tooted my horn. No response

Louise turned to me and said. They probably cant hear youthey probably have wax buildup in their ars.

not so politely tooted my horn.

No response

Demonstrating my characteristic calm in frustrating situations. 1 leaned out the window and screamed. Get out of the road or Ill have you towed at your own expense!

The leader of the group

.sauntered up to the car He looked like he had bathed in Vitalis. His most distinctive feature was the green mold growing above his left ear.

Whats the matter with you chicks he asked.

In the first place 1 am not a chick. I snapped. In the second place, it distresses me that a whole generation raised on Captain Kangaroo doesnt know how to look both ways before crossing the street.

Well, we pedestrians have rights, too. he said.

1 told you that this was some kind of demonstration! Louise shouted triumphantly.

By ROBERT B. CULLEN

Associated Press Writer

RALEIGa N.C. (AP) A former key staffer on the Senate Watergate Committee is finding out how it feels to be on the receiving end of embarrassing political charges.

Rufus Edmisten. ex-deputy chief counsel for the committee, is currently the Democratic candidate for state attorney general in his native North Carolina.

He is also embroiled in a controversy over his failure to file North Carolina income tax returns for the past 10 years.

Edmisten, 33, is the moonfaced pipe smoker who sat

next to Sen. Sam J. Ervin during the Watergate hearings and was often seen on television conferring with Ervin in hushed tones.

When Ervin announced his decision to retire, Edmisten returned to North Carolina to seek office on his own. The attorney generals office fell vacant when the incumbent, Robert Morgan, won the Democratic nomination to succeed Ervin and resigned.

Edmisten, buoyed by the favorable exposure from his role in the Watergate hearings, won the nomination to succeed Morgan from the state party executive committee.

His opponent in the November election is Republican James Carsoa Carson was appointed by Gov. James E. Holshouser to fill Morgans position until the electioa 'The issue of Edmistens taxes arose during a campaign debate. A Carson campaign worker asked Edmisten whether he had filed North Carolina income tax returns during the 10 years he worked for Ervin.

Edmisten. startled, acknowledged that he had not During those ten years, he paid state income taxes to Virginia, because he maintained an apartment in the Washington suburb of

Alexandria, he said.

But during those 10 years, he said, he retained his legal and voting residence in North Carolina.

Carson immediately charged that Edmisten was guilty of criminal and civil violations for his failure to file a return. He said Edmisten would have been entitled to a credit for the taxes he paid to Virginia but the mere fact that he paid them did not excuse him from the obligation of all state residents to file a return.

Edmisten has since conceded that he may have made a technical mistake in failing to file. He has made a full disclosure of his financial

status and promised to pay whatever back taxes he might owe in North Carolina.

Edmisten has consistently noted that he had no intention of evading taxes and merely did not know about any requirement that he file a North Carolina return.

Apparently, he was not alone in his preconception. An Associated Press spot survey of congressional aides in the North Carolina delegation found many who maintained their legal residence in North Carolina but paid state income taxes in Virginia, Maryland,. or the District of Columbia.

Those aides who had sought the advice of tax experts when they took jobs in Washington, however, had filed North Carolina returns.

^e Republicans, meanwhile, are gleefully using the issue to tarnish Edmistens image as a Watergate crusader and question his qualification to be attorney general. ^ /

Holshouser, atj a news conference, smilpd and said he was willing'to give Edmisten the tenefit of the doubt and believe that his failure to file was the result of honest ignorance rather than wilful evasion of taxes.

Carson has pounded away at the theme that Edmistens

and the have tried to voicing their that the Republicans breached the confidentiality of the tax files and found out about Edmistens failure to file before they sprung the question on him in puUic.

But the Democrats have been unable to document those charges and Holshouser has refused to order an investigation into them.

Even if they were true, Holshouser said, there is nothing wrong with finding out whether an individual has filed income tax returns. Since Edmisten filed no returns, that is the only information that might have been available in Raleigh.

Edmisten publicly is saying that the voters will realize that his intentions were honorable and dismiss the incident from their minds.

But more than one knowL edgable Democrat, while refusing to be quoted, has conceded privately that the issue may hurt Edmisten enough to cost him the election.

Sacrifice, Austerity In Ford's Program

By MIKE FKINSII.BER

WASHINGTON (UPl) -President Ford is expected to put before Congress and the nation on Tuesday an inflation, energy and tax program which will probably mean some sacrafice and austerity for the vast majoritv of Americans.

After two months in office. Ford is under pressure from his own party to propose decisive action Secretary of State Henry A Kissinger is said to fear that continued drifting in the energy-economy crisis could threaten democracy in some countries of Western Europe.

Ford will spell out his proposals l>efore a joint session

ot longress at 4 p.m. EDT Tuesday.

While the President worked iver the weekend on what the \Miite House called a bite the bullet" program, the broad outlines of what he will propose emerge from a list of his goals.

His purposes are to curtail inflation, head off a recession, reverse the I'.S dependence on foreign oil. revive a depressed housing industry, bring interest rates down, stimulate the stock market, help power companies expand, shelter Ihe worst victims the jobless and the working jx>or-from inflations pains and keep the Republicans from taking a shellacking in

next months elections.

Some sort of big. broad and probably temporary tax increase appeared inevitablethe first general income tax increase since the Vietnam War.

Additional revenues are necessary to offset the losses arising from new tax incentives for business investment, while still decreasing federal borrowing so as to reduce pressure qp interest rates.

Some VNhite House advisers said a short term surtaxa i>ercentage increase on regular federal income taxesmight be sought for all tax payers with income over a specified level, perhaps. $15,000.

CBD Alleyway Work Begins On Monday

RED BLUFF. Calif. (AP) -Seventeen human skeletons, described as very old, have been uncovered in a trench-like grave on a ranch 20 miles south of here, police say.

Investigators said Friday the bones may be those of (Tiinese laborers who worked in the area in the late 1800s.

But officials said they would not attempt to pinpoint the age of the remains until the bones are analyzed by the anthropology department at the University of California at Davis.

A team of five Tehama County Sheriffs Department officers planned to return to the grave-site today and dig for more skeletons.

The mass grave is about one-half mile east of the Sacramento River in rolling hills between the communities of Los Molinas and Vina.

It is about six miles from the grave of a worker identified as

one of 26 victims in the 1971 mass murder case in which Juan D. Corona, a migrant labor contractor, was convicted.

But investigators said there were no similarities to that case and the skeletons found Friday were very old.

Deputy l^rry Pritchard said workers at the Romiano Ranch were leveling previously unused land on the ranch to plant alfalfa when they uncovered the first skeleton Friday.

Approximately four feet underground they started digging up bones. he said. They appeared to have been piled on top of one another. It looks like a continuous ditch or trenchlike deal stretching out 30 to 40 feet. he said.

Pritchard said the site is about three miles from Vina, now a tiny community of about 100 persons which in the late 1800s had a population of about 10.000 Chinese laborers.

Demo Hqs To Open

The Pitt County Democratic Headquarters will officially open on Tuesday at the southeast corner of Tenth and Evans Street.

Grand opening ceremonies are scheduled for 11 a.m.

Jack Lewis Jr. of Farmville said that the headquarters is being made available to every Democratic candidate in the county who is seeking office in the upcoming November election.

Lewis noted that Mrs. Robert Morgan, wife fo the Democratic aspirant to the U.S. Senate, will be on hand for the opening activities.

All Demo candidates are invited to participate on Tuesday, he added

Contract work is scheduled to begin Monday on the Central Business Districts alleyway-paving and landscaping project that wwill convert the uotown alleys into pedestrian walkways.

Joe Laney, executive director of the Redevelopment Commission, said that work on storm drains and gas and electrical distribution systems by the city and utilities comission is nearing completion and Carolina Telephone and Telegraph Co is putting its lines underground Laney said that the work will start in the section between Cotanche and Eva.os Sfeci and between Third and Fourth Street known as the northeast alley.

We will then move on to the one on the west side of Evans Street between Third and Fourth Street which is called the northwest alley." he noted Plans call for alleyways, which are envisioned as predominantly pedestrian facilities, to be covered with a six-inch concrete layer which will average about 12 feet in width through the entire length of the northeast section. The final surface will be of exposed aggregate, it was noted.

Laney reported that the pedestrain walkways will contain several brick planters that will be landscaped with trees and shrubs.

We are trying to work with the property owners in the area to dress up the backs o their buildings and hopefully add a few landscaping touches the

director explained. We are hoping that the backdoo'ts will be improved as secondary entrances Several have already completed major improvements to the rear of their stores, including adding convenient rear entrances, and they report increased customer usage of the back entrances. Laney added.

The commission hopes to have the northeast and northwest alleyways finished before Christmas and the remaining two alleys, on the west side of Evans between Fourth and Fifth (Southwest). and on the east side of Evans between Fourth and Fifth (Southeast), will be completed as soon as possible The weather will play a part in the progress of the work, Laney explained. None of the work will be in progress during the Christmas shopping season, he added

The official said that the Evans Street Mall plans fall right in with the work schedule on the alleys. The plans are moving ahead on a schedule which should see construction started in the spring of 1975 with completion aimed for July or August of 1975.

Laney said'that an important aspect of the mall construction is that Evans Street will be closed to all vehicle traffic during and after construction is completed He urged business owners to press their efforts to complete the rear entrance work on their stores since pedestrian traffic will be curtailed during the mall

work. He said that rear entrances will be especially important in offering customers an alternative route in entering stores.

Merchants have been encouraged to utilize a traditional or early American theme in undertaking improvements to the stores rear entrances.

We are doing everything we possible can but since we are using public funds, we can only improve public areas, Laney said The real success of the program is based on the cooperation and enthusiasm of the business community.

Highway Bids Fair Attendance

RALEIGH Bids on a project to four lane a portion of N.C. 30 will be opened at the regular monthly bid letting to be held on Oct. 22 by the North Carolina Department of Transportation.

The project includes 3.656 miles of four laning on N.C. 30 along the present alignment of N.C. 30 from the Eastern Greenville Bypass to approximately 84 feet east of secondary road 1524. The project will include grading, bituminous concrete binder and suface and culverts.

The growing popularity of four wheel drive vehicles as a means of getting to otherwise inaccessible places has given rise nationally to. the formation of clubs where owners and operators of such vehicles can get together to compare performance and the finer points of various vehicles in this class.

In Greenville, Michael (Mike) Hays and Robert Mooney are together making an effort to form a Greenville

Four Wheel Drive Qub.

We dont have a name yet. Mike said, Well choose one when we get a club organized. Mike, a native of Pittsburgh, Pa. has lived here five years and attended East Carolina University.

Basically, Mike said, we hope to promote this type of vehicle and teach the proper use of the four wheel drive, whether its used on road, off road or along the

beach.

Were interested in the environmental slant too, Mike added. For example, on the first get together 11 of us with four-wheel drives had last Sunday, we kept stopping to pick up trash and litter

Mike said that all four wheel clubs he had knowledge of make a point of leaving any area they get into in better shape than they found it. And thats going to be our aim here.

THE VERSATILITY. . .of four wheel drive vehicles is shown in this phota This vehicles have already negotiated the rough terrain. A

third is about to make it. front wheels off the ground, and a fourth pulls into position for the uphill leap.

Women Play A Major Role In Greenville 5 Bicentennial

By HELEN PARKS Although Greenville has no architectural wonders to display during its Bicentennial celebrations, it has something more important and more lasting and that is its womenactive, energetic and dedicated women across the community who have spent thousands of hours of their time to bring the Bicentennial to fruition Although most of their labors will go unrecognized, some sense of their efforts may be seen in the efforts of others

One good example is Lib Wilkerson. who started in early June to write a script capturing Greenville's history in a way that would be entertaining. Using research done by Edwin Wilkerson. her script covered the citys past from the Indian settlements in the early I700s to the present.

Mrs. Wilkerson enlisted the aid of Mary Vars in selecting appropriate music, and. this done, began to meet with teachers around the city to organize the school children and get them into rehearsal The result of Mrs

Wilkersons work, plus that of Mary Vars. the teachers and the mothers of the children will be a smoothly running pageant at Wright Auditorium Thursday, October 10 at 7:30 with 500 Community Chorus singing and dancing their way through the citys past.

One of the more visible women associated with the Bicentennial has been Betty Owens. Her mornings have been starting at 4 a.m. lately as she goes to early television tapings promoting the concerts and dances planned for the celebration. Appearing on all the local television shows at least once, and sometimes three or four times. Betty worries about making the public aware of all the events planned

She worries about peoples getting the impression that the ticketed events are just to make money. They cover the fees of the entertainers and help cover the expenses of'the free entertainments. Why. do you know it costs $500 just to get the lighting, etc. for the pageant^ I want people to know that their

Bicentennial is not designed to make money but just to break even. she said.

Perhaps the most active womens organization has been the Junior Womens Club. Many of its members have been working on an individual basis for the Bicentennial for several

months and the club itself is planning to do the decorating for the Costume Ball Friday. Oct. 11. at the National Guard Armory.

Its Art Department is gathering props, flowers and backdrops for an old Southern plantation effect, while Daine White makes plans for her nural to run across one complete wall.

The club also plans a float in the parade in which they have drawn from women both in the community and outside to show womens changing roles in Greenville and in American society

Featured on the float will to be Mrs. Elizabeth Savage, a prominent ECU graduate, and Lt. Judy Neuffer, Navy hurricane hunter, who regards her job as a Navy pilot as a challenge but not particularly a stroke for

womens rights. "I took at myself as a pilot trying to do what Ive been trained to do she said The club has already had a fashion show of historic costumes so that members could better get ideas for their Bicentennial dresses.

A woman whose part in the Bicentennial has been basic, complicated and often frustrating is Lucille Sumrell of the Greenville Recreation Department. Working with craft shops and craftsmen around the city, she has lined up scores of display and sale booths for the Bicentennial exhibition at the Kroger Building. She has covered the broad spectrum of craft work, has lined up demonstrations throughout the celebrations, has worked with the schools to get student work and art displays. Just one of Mrs. Sumrells projects has been to get paper bags decorated by elementary students so that sale items will go home in their

own works of art.

One of the women Mrs. Sumrell has brought into the craft demonstrations is Myra Sexauer Mrs. Sexauer has

set up a four harness floor loom, similar in constrction to the old-fashioned looms, and will weave an authentic colonial design called cups and saucers. She and ECU weaving students will demonstrate weaving processes from 1-4 p.m. and from 7-10 p.m. each day of the Bicentennial.

Nancy Whitlow. Womens Participation chairman, has tried to get the enthusiasm of all of Greenvilles women aroused that they might better support the Bicentennial. She has with the help of numerous other women, organized both a baking contest and a First Lady of Greenville contest. Feeling that costumes are helpful to get the proper spirits up. Nancy pored over catalogues to get costumes that looked good and werent too expensive to sell at Bicentennial Headquarters.

She drew patterns for bonnets, approached fabric shops to order old-fashioned patterns and fabrics, modeled costumes for the newspaper, for television and for book clubs. As a result of

/Vomen Play. .

(Continued from page A-8) her efforts, women all over Greenville have made or bought costumes for the Bicentennial and have found Grandmas old cake recipe to enter the baking contest.

Injecting serious notes into the citys celebration of its past, the League of Women Voters and the National Organization for Women have planned meetings on Ladies Day, Wednesday, Oct. 8. Working on their program throughout the summer the League has planned a two-hour meeting at Jarvis Memorial Church on "The Child of the Future is What He Studies Today; A Look at the Curricula of the Greenville District-Pitt County Schools.

The National Organization for Women is pointing to Greenvilles women and their achievements in a panel "rhen and Now: Pitt County Women Through 200 Years. This panel will be held at 8 p.m. in the Civil Court Room on the second floor of the Pitt County Court House. Both groups will have hospitality booths at the Kroger Building on alternate days.

The driving force behind all the planning for the Bicentennial has been Janice Buck. Her planning began early in June and she has put in eight to 12 hour days on coordinating efforts ever since. She has cajoled, pleaded and sometimes twisted arms, all the while maintaining a sense of humor. She has managed a huge volunteer force with a seeming minimum of effort.

I know I cant make everybody happy. I just want everyone to feel that this is his celebration and that he

Cat Atop Car Dug In Claws

YUBA CITY, Calif. (AP) -As Mrs. Shirley Cartosdelli, wife of Sutter County undersheriff Frank C. Cartosdelli, drove down Yuba City streets recently, she wondered why everyone was pointing to her car and waving something other than a hello. When she got to her shopping center she discovered the reason.

In the luggage rack atop the car was the family cat. It was his favorite napping spot, but he didnt count on taking a ride. It took 10 minutes to pry him loose.

CENTER

The Greenville 200 Pageant, scheduled for Thursday, October 10, at 7:30 in Wright Auditorium, is to be an evening of young entertainment combined with the educational viewpoint of a history of Greenville.

According to Lib Wilker-son, chairman of the Pageant committee, the pageant consists of a historical narration highlighted with music, dances, and con-stumes. The narration.

written by Mrs. Wilkerson and researched by Edwin Wilkerson, deals with Greenvilles history from the time this area was wilderness to the present. Jim Rees, of the ECU campus radio, will be the narrator.

This celebration of Greenvilles history will be supplemented by a musical program combining the youthful exuberance of Greenvilles fourth graders with the more seasoned

talents of the community Chorus.

We decided to design the pageant around the fourth grade in the Greenville schools because all the fourth graders study North Carolina history, Mrs. Wilkerson said. C^ty school, parochial school, and private schoolteachers in the Greenville area are including the pageant songs in their lesson plans.

Mrs. Wilkerson added that several historical periods will be accented by dances. Our three folk dances will be performed by other elementary grade levels. Second and third graders will do an Indian dance, and two dances will be performed by the fifth and sixth graders from the Third Street School and Wahl Coates. The students of Marie Wallace, Christina Williams, and Ramona Van Nortwick,

dancing teachers in Greenville, will also paricipate in the program. In preparation for this event.

Mrs. Wilkerson has been asisted by a large number of people. Steve Koch and Mary Vars helped Mrs. Wilkerson write the pageant and choose the music. Fifteen teachers have participated in organizing the pageant.

Fourth grade teachers

involved in the pageant are: Betty Boyd. Zenora Langley. Joanne Moore, Steve Koch Jim Rogers. Doug Adams, John Wooten. Barbette Pangani, Patsy Galloway, Annette Braxton, and Sister Mary Edmund. The physical education teachers are: Charles Crumpler, Gary Hess and Mary S. Hunley.

There is no admission charge for the Greenville 200 Pageant.

The performance will take place at 8:15 p.m. in the Recital Hall of the A. J Fletcher Music Building.

Dr. Hiss will be ac companied by Peter Takacs, pianist and faculty member of the ECU School of Music.

BARITONE CLYDE HISS. . .Director of the ECU School of Music Opera Theater and Faculty Teacher will be in concert this evening at 8:15 in the ReciUl Hall. There is no admission charge and the public is invited to attend.

Poulenc. Selections to be sung by Dr. Hiss are The Drum-Major. Prayer, Weylas Song and Farewell, all by Wolf set to the texts of Eduard Morike; four Wolf compositions to texts of Joseph EichendorffThe Musician. Silent Love. Magic of Night, and Sailors Farewell.

Duparc songs on the program are Invitation To The Journey. The Manor of Rosemonde, and Phidyle.

For selections by Poulence, Hiss has chosen seven calligrams set to music by the 20th century composer These are The Spy. Change. Toward The South, It Is Raining. Exiled Goodness, As Well As The I^usts. and Journey.

The recital will conclude with Poulencs Prologue to Les Mamelles de Tiresias. Hiss notes that this final number is a theme of a little one-act opera admonishing people to have more children. He further notes that although that theme is today inappropriate, he has included this number in his recital as it is one of Poulencs best pieces of music.

There is no admission charge for the Hiss recital and the public is invited to attend. _

Sergeant Dave Fulton Enjoys 12~String Guitar

By SGT. PEGGY CAULEY Some Cherry Point

Marines find enjoyment in idling away the hours lying in the sun, others find it in sports. Sergeant Joseph Dave Fulton, Marine Wing Headquarters Squadron (MWHS)-2 maintenance analyst, finds enjoyment in entertaining himself and others playing his 12-string guitar.

T^ie 23-year-old Tennessee * Marht^ started playing about 11 years ago. I started out on the bass fiddle, recalled Dave, At that time, I was a lot smaller than it was and had to stand on a chair to play it. Needless to say, I gave up on the bass fiddle.

After his short affair with the bass fiddle, Dave switched to the piano. My father was a professional pianist and helped me a lot. I became pretty efficient but thought Id like to try something else so I started playing the clarinet. That lasted about a year until I finally ended up on the guitar.

Cradling his guitar and picking out a tune, Dave talked about some of the reasons he started playing the guitar. It seemed to me that people liked listening to guitar music, especially girls. Theres something romantic about guitar music.

Entertaining at parties hasnt been the extent of Daves playing though. Ive played in several bands in Tennessee, South Carolina and niinois. While stationed in Japan, I played with a small band at a night club. We also made a few radio shows.

Gordon Lightfoot and Paul Simon are his favorite entertainers because, They play mostly easy listening music, and thats my specialty. When playing their music, I sometimes add a couple of my own notes just to make it different.

Since coming to Cherry Point in July 1974, Dave has played mainly for himself and friends. Dave isnt letting his talents go to waste though, hes looking for other musically inclined Marines to join him in a band. If theres anyone out there thats interested in getting a band together, give me a call, concluded Dave.

STARTS "THE CASTAWAY COWBOY" & B

FRIDAY! "THE ABSENT MINDED PROFESSOR" -

Tabar's "Imagery In Gold And Silver" Show

Prom Shoppard Memorial Library

By WILLIE MAE GIBBS Catherine Cookson, a novelist highly acclaimed for her vivid portraits of working-class life and for her historical fiction, has written two new books which will surely delight her hundreds of thousands of readers as much as her previously renowned books. One of them. THE MALLEN LOT, is the third volume of the Mallen trilogy. Readers who made the acquaintance of the Mallens brought only turmoil and grief to those whose lives they crossed. Yet, as THE MALLEN LOT begins, it appears that the curse which plagued the Mallens is no more. Harry Bensham is happily marri^ to the woman who once served as his childrens governess; his daughter is soon to be happily wed. Allowing this brief happiness, the Mallen curse threatens to continue into the third generation. Ben, the third child born to Barbara Mallen and Harrys son Dan, has both the Mallen streak in his hair and the Mallen temperament. Finding it impossible to love her moody, violent son, Barbara allows her passionate nature to ^ stray in a forbidden direction. And as the curse decreed, turmoil and grief befall all those whose lives the Mallens crossed.

In another book called OUR JOHN WILLIE, Ms. Cookson may ^ well have created her most memorable character to date. John Willie, deaf and dumb from birth, was saved from a flooded mine shaft by his brother Davy. The waters took their fathers life, however, leaving John Willie and Davy orphaned and penniless. Relying on his wit and resourcefulness, Davy manages to keep himself and his brother alive. Stealing an egg or a vegetable from Miss Peamarsh, the austere, eccentric lady surrounded by ruin and decay, was risky business. But to dare move into the deserted woodshed at the edge of her property was . a most dangerous undertaking. What happens to Davy and John ; Willie, and what happens to Miss Peamarsh when she finds the orphans living in her woodshed, demonstrate Catherine Cooksons unparalleled gift for storytelling.

Jean Plaidy, another historical novelist whose books are enjoyed by numerous readers, writes about love, lust, and the .supernatural in her latest novel, THE MURDER IN THE .TOWER. Among those playing out the drama in this story are ;the easygoing king, who had a fondness for clever and shrewd young men; Robert Carr, beloved by the king and by Frances; Sir Thomas Overby, a poet who worked for Robert behind the scenes; and the evil Frances, who was ready to destroy all who Tstood in her way. The action begins to unfold when Robert is Ichosen as the kings favorite. Unable to fill the posts the king 'wished to give him, Robert seeks the help of Sir Thomas Overby. 'Frances comes to court, determined to rid herself of an un-wanted husband, ensnare a lukewarm lover, and revenge herself on the man who stood between her and her desires. Thus a dangerous liason begins, and what follows is disaster.

Imagery In Gold and Silver is the apt name Scott Tabar has given to an exhibition of hand-crtfFted jewelry and miniature wall pieces going on view this afternoon at the Mushroom Gallery downtown Greenville in Georgetown Shopping Center. A reception for the artist is being held at the gallery from three to six this afternoon, with the public invited to attend.

Scotts exhibitionthere are 16 pieces, mostly of jewelry with a few miniature sculpted silver and bronze wall pieces, will undoubtedly be the smallest show in town this yearand it certainly is one of the loveliest that has been in these parts in a long time.

A Greenville resident until recent years, Scott is a graduate of East Carolina University. He later earned the MA and MFA degrees in jewelry design at Bowling Green University in Ohio.

For the past two or three years Scott has experimented in a wide variety of jewelry styles. This show represents his latest works, and the result is one of exquisite detail matched with excellence of craftsmanship.

Using silver as his basic metal, Scott adds precious stones, pearls, and washes of gold. Some pieces are fashioned from silver and bronze.

Forms from nature are suggestedas in a necklace of

BOOK

A GREENVILLE ALBUM

silver made of thin shell like shapes, and in Scotts Surreal Gouds, a series of four pieces... two pendants and two pins. 'The cloud forms are equally suggestive of burnished autumn leaves. Against the raised effect achieved by the repousse technique, Scott places spirals of silver wire that are particularly effective in creating surface contrasts. While resembling plant tendrils, there is also a kinship to Oriental calligraphy in these decorative additions.

A couple of rings are included in this collection. One is set with a large baroque pearl; the other with citrine and peridot stones. In these, the settings are a marvel of open and closed forms, rich in unusual details.

The miniature sculpted figures in boxes, which Scott calls wall pieces, are interesting. In a shallow self-contained metal box barely an inch deep and less than two inches wide, he has placed two seated silver figures in one half

of the box, with the other half a closed surface of silver and bronze. Despite their size, the tiny figures are strongly reminiscent of Henry Moores monumental sculptures.

Currently a teacher at the (Traft Center in Worcester, Mass., Scott previously taught at the Toledo Art Museum in Ohio. He has exhibited his work extensively, including prints, drawings and other media in addition to hand crafted jewelry. Scotts work is in the collections of numerous private collectors and in several institutional permanent collections.

This small show clearly demonstrates that Scott Tabar is well on the way to becoming a young jwelry craftsman with exceptional ability.

In addition to Scotts jewelry, the Mushroom is showing a small selection of quilts and old bedspreads in conjunction with the Greenville Bicentennial celebrations.

State then took advangtage of early third period Pirate mistakes to tie if up and then niove ahead.

The victory was the fifth straight for the Wolfpack. and it snapped a three-game winning streak by the Pirates. Still. Pirate fans could take heart in the fact that their team didnt get snowballed as it had the year l)efore by a team rated weaker. 57-8

Kenny Strayhorn got one touchdown for the Pirates, a one vard plunge, while quarterback Mike Weaver picked up another on a 16-yard keeper. The other went to halfback Bobby Myrick on a five-vard scramble late in the game State picked up their first score on a six-yard pass from Dave Buckey to Roland Hooks, while ACC career scoring leader Stan Fritts got the second, a 12-vard run. Hooks ran in the third

Jim Woody, who kicked both of his PAT attempts, broke the ECU career PAT record, with his 47th and 49th.

If there was a difference in the game, it was the passing attack. State picked up 153 yards, while the Bucs got only 36. ECU outrushed the Pack. 318-293

Mistakes also hurt the Bucs. who lost two fumbles and two pass interceptions.

While State pushed the ball just over midfield, to the 45 on the first series of the game, the Bucs came back to shock them on a 94-yard. 14-play drive to take the lead. 7-0.

On the first four plays, the Bucs picked up six yards a carry, with Myrick carrying twice. Weaver once and Schink once. Ken Strayhorn kicked out seven to the 30. but two passes there went incomplete. However, when the Pirates went back to punt. Gil Job was roughed, and East Carolina got a first down on the State 48.

OAKLAND (AP) - Paul Blair. Brooks Robinson and Bobby Grich hit home runs off Oakland ace Jim Catfish Hunter, powering the Baltimore Orioles to a 6-3 victory over the As in the opening game of the American League baseball playoffs Saturday.

Blair homered in the opening inning for the games first run and Robinson homered to lead off the fifth, with both drives virtually scraping the left field foul pole and barely clearing the 330-foot sign on the fence.

Grich hit a two-run, 350-foot drive to wrap up the Orioles four-run outburst in the fifth and knock 25-game winner Hunter out of the contest.

Grich also doubled with one out in the fourth and scored on a single by designated hitter Tommy Davis, breaking a 1-1 tie and sending Baltimore ahead to stay.

Left-hander Mike Cuellar, who won all seven of his decisions in the Orioles amazing stretch drive to the Eastern Division title, allowed seven hits over the first eight innings. But he gave up two more to pinch-hitters Jesus Alou and Claudell Washington opening the Oakland ninth and Ross Grimsley came on in relief.

Grimsley. who had a 3-0 record against the As in starting assignments this season, gave up a sacrifice fly by Bert Campaneris but retired three straight batters to finish the game.

Cuellar. 22-10 for the regular season, allowed only two extra-base hits, doubles by Bill North in the fifth which led to one of the As run and Washington in the ninth Campaneris had three of the hits off Cuellar and drove in all the Oakland runs.

By jumping ahead of baseballs defending World Cham

pions in the best-of-five playoffs. the Orioles posted a 10th consecutive victory, dating back to their hot September drive. 'They will pitch Dave McNallji, 16-10, against the As Ken Holtzman, 19-17, in a matchup of left-handers Sunday at the Oakland Coliseum.

The As. who lost 16 of their

final 30 regular-season games and scored more than five runs in only three of those games, scratched out a run in the third inning Saturday to tie the score at 1-1. with Campaneris singling to score North from second base.

Duke Railies To Top Purdue

By REESE HART Associated Press Writer

DURHAM. N. C. (AP)-Tail-back Tony Benjamin keyed a fourth-period touchdown drive as Duke came from behind and held on to defeat Purdue 16-14 Saturdav in an intersectional football game.

The Boilermakers, who upset Notre Dame last week, rolled from their 18 to the Duke 13 in the closing minutes but the Blue Devils held and Steve Schmidt failed on a 31-yard field goal attempt.

Duke then took possession and controlled the ball to post its third straight victory against one loss.

A crowd of 20,500 saw Purdue. which trailed 10-7 at the half, roll 86 yards for a touchdown in 20 plays with Mark Vi-tali scoring from the one on the second play of the fourth quarter.

Duke then swept 34 yards for the game-winning touchdown with Benjamin diving over from the one.

The Blue Devils had gone ahead .3-0 in the first quarter on a 24-yard field goal by David Malechek

Duke ran the margin to 10-0 in the second period on a 53-vard scoring drive with Ben

iamin diving over from the one.

Purdue capitalized on a break to score shortly before the halftime intermission. Duke punter Bob Grupp fumbled the snap and Fhjrdue took over on the Duke 29. Seven plays later Pete Gross scored from the one.

Benjamin gained 79 of Dukes 154 yards in .30 carries. Mark Dierking was the big offensive gun for Pursue, gaining 122 yards in 19 carries.

Purdue. 1-2-1 for the season, took the opening kickoff and drove from its 25 to Dukes 39. Dukes John Hill then stole the ball on the next play from Gross and ran 13 yards to Purdues 48. From there the Blue Devils drove to the seven and on fourth down Malechek put Duke out front with his 24-yard field goal.

Purdue had a total of 291 vards passing and rushing, compared to 183 for Duke.

was breaking toward third on the pitch.

Dick Green led off the As third by drawing a walk. North tried to sacrifice but Cuellar fielded the bunt and threw to second base for the forceout. North, the American Leagues stolen-base champion, swiped second and Campaneris singled to produce the tying run.

Grich doubled on a hard bouncer down the third base line with one out in the Orioles fourth. Davis hit Hunters next Ditch cleanly to left field for the single which broke the tie.

In the fifth. Robinson greeted Hunter with a line drive, a homer by a matter of inches.

Ellie Hendricks singled, was sacrificed to second by Mark Belanger, went to third on a passed ball and, after Rich Coggins struck out, scored on Blairs single.

Grich worked a 2-2 count off Hunter before connecting for the Orioles third homer, building their lead to 6-1.

John Blue Moon Odom relieved Hunter at that point, and he and Rollie Fingers shut out Baltimore the rest of the way.

Hunter. 25-12, threw 25 home runs balls during the regular season, most of them with the bases empty. He walked only 46 batters in 318 innings and walked none Saturday

North and Campaneris teamed up for a run in the fifth, cutting Baltimores lead to 6-2. North opened with a double into the left field corner and Campaneris singled to right to drive him home. But the As shortstop was then picked off first base by Cuellar to kill any further notions of a rally.

North was the first batter Grimsley faced in the ninth, with pinch-runner Manny Trillo on third and Washington on second.

PITTSBURGH (AP) Righthander Don Sutton, a 19-game winner who won his last nine decisions, tossed a four-hitter and led the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 3-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates in the first game of the best-of-five National League playoffs Saturday.

Ironically, in the game between baseballs strongest-hitting teams, the winning run came in on a bases-loaded walk by losing pitcher Jerry Reuss in the second inning.

The Eastern Diivision champion Pirates never caught up, their powerful bats muffled by Sutton, who collected the third shutout in the six-year history of the NL playoffs.

The Dodgers, who won the Western Division by four games over runner-up Cincinnati, took advantage of a wild streak by Reuss k) score the only run needed as they recorded their first victory of the year in Pittsburghs Three Rivers Stadium.

Catcher Joe Ferguson opened the second inning with the first hit of the game, a single to right. After Ron Cey fouled out. Bill Russell rifled a single to right and Ferguson raced to third, beating the throw from Richie Zisk.

Reuss, who won 16 games to lead the Pittsburgh staff, struck out Steve Yeager. But the sometimes-wild left-hander walked Sutton, a .184 hitter, on four pitches to load the bases.

Reuss threw a strike to Dave Lopes, then three balls before Lopes fouled one off. Lopes then walked, forcing in the winning run.

After that, it was all Sutton, the 6-foot-l pitcher from Clio, Alabama, who himself cant account for the peaks and valleys that marked his 19-9 season for the Dodgers.

Los Angeles added two runs in the ninth off Pirate relief ace

Dave Giusti. Sutton singled into center field and was forced out by Lopes. But after Bill Buckner popped out Jim Wynn, the Toy Cannon who hit 32 home runs this season, ripped a ground-rule double to right, scoring Lopes. Ferguson bounced a single through the middle, chasing home Wynn and making it 3-0.

Sutton won six of his first eight decisions and then could not get a victory for his next 14 starts spanning two months. But in his next 14 decisions, he won 13 and spearheaded the Dodgers battle to outlast the powerful Cincinnati club.

I cant explain my season, said Sutton before heading out to face the Pirates at the sundrenched Three Rivers Stadium. He disappointed a partisan crowd of 40,638, some 10,000 under capacity, as he handcuffed their proud Bucs.

Sutton had few problems during the Pirates long afternoon With two outs in the third, he walked Ed Kirkpatrick. Frank Taveras then grounded sharply toward third, the ball bouncing off Ceys glove to Russell, whose throw just missed getting the batter. Cey was charged with his first of two errors in the game.

The Dodger pitcher worked out o the jam when Wynn raced back and grabbed Reuss long drive against the shallow center field fence.

With two out in the fourth, Manny Sanguillea who batted in the run that clinched the East Division title for Pittsburgh, got the Pirates first hiL a slicing single to right. He was stranded, however, as Kirkpatrick lifted a feeble pop to first baseman Steve Garvey.

The Pirates, who won the NL East by 14 games over the St. Louis Cardinals, attempt to square the series Sunday when Los Angeles right-hander Andy Messersmith faces Pittsburgh lefthander Jim Rooker.

ATLANTA (AP)-Quarterback Rudy Allen connected on a 17-yard scoring pass to Jimmy Robinson with 37 seconds remaining Saturday, triggering Georgia Tech to a 28-24 college football victory over Virginia.

Allen took over the sputtering Tech offense in the second half and guided the Yellow .Jackets. 2-3. to three scoring drives. 'The iunior signal caller from Columbus took Tech on its final march after Scott Gardner had scored his second touchdown on a five-yard run with 4:17 left to play, putting Virginia. 1-3. ahead 24-21.

Tech. trailing 9-7 at the half, could only muster a 50-yard touchdown burst from freshman Adrian Rucker in the opening half. Virginia scored on a Ken Shelton fumble recovery of Gardners in the end zone and Joe Jenkins 27-yard field goal

The score went back and forth in the final half with Jim Murray scoring the first of his two touchdowns on a one-yard run midway in the third period before Gardner put the Cav aliers ahead on his six-yard scamper 45 seconds into the final period.

Allen, who keyed both of Techs second half scoring drives with kev runs, had a 17 varder in the first drive and a 20-yard burst in the next one which ^ Murray topf>ed with a two-yard run.

Allen engineered the winning drive of 80 yards in 11 plays by bitting split end John Steele twice for 13 yards with Pat Mo-riarity breaking loose for 12 yards and Rucker, who finished with 142 yards in 14 carries, springing loose for 11 and seven

vards in the late drive to victory The winning touchdown came on a strike to Robinson who darted from his split end iiosition to the middle of the end zone and made a startling catch while leaping high above Virginia defenders.

Gardner, the nations second leading passer, connected on 13 of 22 passes for 14 yards. He also rushed for 44 yards. Sophomore Joe Sroba was the workhorse for Virginia, rushing for 159 yards in .32 attempts.

Allen, noted as a passer who has seen little action in Techs Wishbone offense, passed only once before the winning drive and it was incomplete. However. Allen was perfect in the final minutes, connecting on three of three. He began the 80-vard winning drive by hitting Steele for eight yards before Pat Moriarity got the first down with a 12-yard run to Techs 40.

State Had Its Hands Full With East Carolina

RALEIGHEast Carolina fought to the bitter end Saturday but lost a heartbreaking, emotional game to N.C. State in a regionally televised game that saw the Pirates come closer to beating the Wolfpack as anybody has come yet One could look at the game and say that the tide turned on the interception by Eddie Pool

in the third quarter that stopf>ed a Pirate drive and set up the go-ahead TD. Or, maybe, the scene shifted on the fumble after Mike Weavers fantastic 50-plus yard run in the third period.

East Carolina played almost perfect ball in the first half but in the second, turnovers proved to be the difference Turnovers in the second half killed us. said

It was Clemsons first victory over Georgia since 1955 and gives the Tigers a 2-2 record, the.same as Georgias, OCain started for Clemson but was ineffective and was replaced at the helm in the second period His reliever, Mark Fellers, started the ball rolling Clemsons way but went out with an ankle injury in the third period with Oorgia ahead 17-14. When sophomore OCain came back in. he turned the tide He ran 39 yards up the middle for a touchdown and stretched his arms across the goal line for the points that eventually decided the outcome.

Allan Leavitt kicked a 42-yard field goal.

Oklahoma Rolls Past Deacons

By RON JENKIN.S NORMAN. Okla (AF) -

Halfback Joe Washington put on a dazzling display of open field running and quarterback .Steve Davis hurled two touchdown passes, helping second ranked Oklahoma crush a

young Wake Forest team 63-0 in an intersectional football game Saturday.

Washington slashed for 145 yards in 10 carries and scored fin a 65-yard scamper, leading the undefeated Sooners to their third straight victory. That moved Washington, a junior, ahead of Clendon Thomas as the fourth leading rusher in .Sooner history Washington gained all his vardage in the first half. The Sooners put in the ihird-ktring backfield after the half.

Oklahoma went 50 yards in seven plays on its first possession with halfback Grant Bur-get dashing in from the 18 for the score I^ter. Washington electrified the partisan Sooner crowd w hen he scooted around end for 65 yards and the second Oklahoma touchdown.

That was all the scoring in the first quarter, but the Sooners piled up 28 points in the second period to take a 42-0 lead at intermission 4n the second quarter outburst, Davis hit tight end Wayne Hoffman on a seven-yard scoring toss and combined w ith Tinker Owens on a 32-yard scoring effort Peacock scored on a 55-yard run and reserve halfback Bob Berg had a one-vard plunge for a touchdown.

Pat Dye. ECU coach. You cant give NCS the ball in that field position like we did and get away with it.

Dye praised his staff saying. Im real proud of our coaching staff and the job they did with the kids this week. The teams had the same ability but lacked in some areas. Our kids didnt lack anything in heart, they just dont quit as they showed last week (against Southern Illinois) and this week

Dye said he never gave up hope. 1 thought we would win until the very last play. I never gave up and I dont think they did either^ the team represented ECU very well. Im just as proud of them as if they had won, 40-0.

States Lou Holtz also had praise for the ECU team. East Carolina did an excellent job^ I said before the game that they had a fine team, but everyone thought we were trying to con them

I thought we were ready to play and I thought we played well but we played a very fine team. For a while; ECU played perfect ball; they had no p>enalties and kept the ball on the ground, moving it very well.

Dye said that it was not a victory in any way for the Pirates. Pointing to the players several of whom were crying after the game, he said, Look at these kids if you think this is .some kind of moral victory. You dont learn anything from a loss, vou learn from winning.

Now the Pirates will have to put this game behind them and get ready to open conference play as they travel to Furman to defend their Southern Conference title and begin their quest for a third championship.

By WOODY PEELE Reflector Sports Editor

Like the body of a reptile after its head has been removed, the Rose High School Rampants writhed Friday night, but the heart of their offense wasnt there as Goldsboro stunned them with a 12-6 defeat.

The Rampants, who had known for the week that quai^ terback Henry Trevathan wouldnt be on the field due to an injury in last weeks game, felt they could still move the ball behind Mike Ball.

But Friday morning, the worst came. Hard-running Doug Paschal was sidelined with the flu, and that was too much for the Rampants to bare.

From a team that could grind out over 300 yards in rushing, the Rampants became a team that nad to rely on the defense to produce a break for then>and that break never came.

Instead, Goldsboro took advantage of a few Rose mistakes to account for two touchdowns and claimed the victory.

The Rampants, except for their touchdown drive, which climaxed with Lindberg Morris going over from the two, could generate little offense. By the time it was over, they had run for only 65 yards.

For a change, the passing game was the high point of the game. Ball hit seven of 14 for 92 yards, with half of it coming on a last chance drive for the Rampants that failed.

Goldsboro got their first touchdown on a seven-yard pass from Will Winslow to Ron Frederick, while the other, the first play from scimmage in the second half, was a 69-yard scamper by Willie Coley.

The first Cougar touchdown

had been set up by a bad snap from center on a punt attempt.

Rose appeared to be generating a little offense the first time it got the ball, moving from their own 30 to the Cougar 39 before a hard tackle jarred the ball loose and Anthony Gilchrist recovered for Cold-sboro. (Goldsboro hit hard all nightusing a nine-man tine and constantly harrassing Rose in the backfield. Many times, they continued to wrestle the Rampant runner to the ground after the whistle, but only one flag was thrown alt evening, despite the protests of the Rampant coaching staff.)

Goldsboro came back after the fumble recovery to drive down the field themselves. But they got only to the 37 before the Rampant defense pulled itself together and forced a punt.

Rose, moving from the 23, got one first down at the 35, but were held solidly there for three plays. Macon Moye then went back to punt, but the ball sailed over his head, and he fell on it at the 10, where Goldsboro was awarded possession.

Calvin Todd hit into the line for no gain, and on the final play of the quarter, Coley went around the right side for three yards.

Then, on the first play of the second period, wide receiver Frederick ran a square out pattern in the end zone, taking the pass from Winslow for the score. The kick failed, however, and with 11:55 left in the half, the Cougars held a 6-0 lead.

After an exchange of punts. Rose got the ball, and thanks to two penalties against Goldsboro, got a first down at the Cougar 36. After Andrew Newton picked up two yards. Ball went to Curt

Maryland Stops Syracuse, 30-0

By TONY BAKER . .

Associated Press Writer SYRACUSE, N.Y (AP) -Wingback John Schultz ran for a pair of second half touchdowns and defense-minded Maryland coasted to a 31-0 college football victory over Syracuse Saturday.

Maryland, 2-2, marched 83 vards in 10 plays for its first touchdown midway in the first quarter. Tailback Louis Carter knifed over from the two for his 24th career touchdown.

Schultz made it 14-0 in the third quarter on his one-yard plunge, a roughing-the-asser penalty on a key third down gave Maryland a first down at the Syracuse 22.

Steve Mike-Mayer, whose brother Nick is the place kicker for the Atlanta Falcons, of the National Football League, made it 17-0 on his 19-yard field goal late in the third period.

Schultz scored his second touchdown early in the fourth quarter, nowling over from the one. Freshman quarterback Mark Manges, who replaced starter Bob Avellini late in the final period, ended the scoring with his 17-yard run ^

Syracuse. 1-4, had its best op portunity to score early in the second period with a first down

at the Maryland 12. But the Orangemen lost two yards in the next three plays and Bernie Ruoffs 31-yard fieldgoal attempt was wide to the right.

Syracuse, which failed to get inside the Maryland 33 in the second half, played without its leading rusher, tailback Ken Kinsey. The 5-foot-9, 179-pound .sophomore was sidelined with a pulled leg muscle._

Creech for 14 yards on a fine reception for a first down at the 20. But the Cougar defenders broke through the Rampant line on the next two plays to throw Rose for 12 yards in losses, and a third down pass failed.

Goldsboro came back after the punt to move the ball down to the Rose 47 before Mo^e picked off the ball and returned it 18 yards to the Cougar 43. Time ran out; however; before Rose could move it.

Amazinglyat the half. Rose had only 21 yards in total offense, and was minus three yards in rushing.

Goldsboro received the kickoff, and put the ball in play on the 31. On the first play from scrimmage, Coley went around right end after breaking two backfield tackles, and raced down the sidelines to go all the way for the score. A two-point pass try failed, and the Cougars led, 12-0 with 11:22 left in the quarter.

Rose got briefly fired up after that and came back for its only score. On the first play, from the 36, Ronald Randol{^ broke up the middle for 18 yards, and a 15-yard piling on penalty carried it to the Cougar 31. Morris hit through for 12 more yards, and Newton added five to the 14. Morris and Newton carried once more each for four yards apiece for a first down at the six. Randolph got three. Ball one. and then Morris cracked over from the two. Tim Toates, kicking for the injured Jeff Hagans, missed the PAT kick, and it stayed 12 6, with most of the period still to go.

Moye put Rose into good field position three plays later with his second interception, returning another 18 yards to the Cougar 43.

Creech made another good catch, this time for 14 yards down to the 30. He picked up another first down at the 19, and it looked like the Rampants were ready to pull their patented comeback act.

But a five-yard penalty for illegial proceedure set them back, and the Cougars broke through on the next three plays for a total of 16 yards in losses, driving Rose back to the 40, from where they punted.

Early in the final period, Morris broke away for 24 yards to the Rose 49 to again give the Rampants good field position, but they failed on fourth and seven at the Cougar 48, and h turned it cer.

Goldsboro drove to the Rose 23 before twice being hurled back to the 36 and kicking away.

Then, the Rampants tried once more, moving from the 11. Ball carried for a yard, then hit

Tommy Joe Payne for 11 yards.

CINCINNATI (AP) - At the end of the final game of the season Tuesday. Cincinnati Reds rookie first baseman Roger Freed ran to the mound to congratulate young Reds pitcher Rawly Eastwidtr

"You made the history hooks." Freed said.

Kastwick would rather no one had noticed or remembered that he had just given up what was Hank Aarons 733rd. and perhaps last, home run.

"I'm up here trying to prove myself." said the 23-year-old Fast wick "1 think I helped myself bv pitching in September with the Reds. I didn't want to

give up the home run. Im trying to make the club for next year

Eastwick and Freed were called up from the Reds farm team, the Indianapolis Indians of the American Association, in August when the Indians season ended

Freed was excited that he was around to see the Atlanta Braves sluggers homer. He reached out and grabbed Aarons hand as he rounded first base

"I got a piece of history, said Freed. "I was the first i>erson to shake hands with Aaron after he hit his last home run

Not Good In The NFL

By HAL BOCK AP Sports Writer It is written in the Good Book of Football Axioms that passing yardage does not necessarily touchdowns make.

Just ask the Dallas Cowboys. Item; Dallas quarterback Roger Staubach leads all National Football Conference passers with 725 yardsover 200 more than the next best total.

Item: Drew Pearson of Dallas is the leagues leading re

ceiver with 21 catches for 372 yards.

Item: The Cowboys have managed just 40 points in their first three games, losing two of those contests.

Dallas tries to turn things around as the National Football League season enters its fourth week Sunday. It wont be easy, because the Cowboys must face Minnesota, one of the NFLs three unbeaten and untied teams.

Multifunction Room Is Helpful

By DOROTHKA BROOKS

NEW YORK (UPI) - Although in American homes most rooms customarily have a function that makes them unique, doubling or tripling on This function can add to livability in event of a space squeeze.

The classic example of a multifunction room is the family mom which has gained w-de popularity in recent years. Usually it adjoins the kitchen or there are duplicate facilities and wet bar and soda fountain may share space.

At its best it is a room for all things a playroom for the youngsters and a workshop for mother during the day, perhaps containing a desk for household

accounts, facilities for laundry and sewing. Its a place for informal meals and entertaining by teen-agers or grownups. Its a spot where the family can gather round the fireplace or television set, watch home movies or slides, read or study or work on hobbies; it may even, with careful provision for privacy, double as guest room on occasion.

In the limited space of apartment, condominium or small home, however, such a family room seldom is possible. There are. however, a variety of possibilities for multipurpose use of rooms.

The master bedroom often can serve as a sitting room where parents can get away for ,quiet conversation, reading or TV watching A desk can make

it a good spot for letter writing or household accounts. In a good sized room, a little planning can create a nook for sewing or other hobby where work in progress need not be constantly interrupted.

Childrens bedrooms can serve for play and study all well, with proper furniture and decoration. The traditional bedroom sets" seldom work well for a multipurpwse room. Bunk, trundle or studio beds that free floor space and double as seating, combined with sectional furniture, offer the most possibilities. Built-ins, dividers and ingenuity will enable youngsters to share a room and still have the feeling of a room of my own

Teen-agers will appreciate a bedroom they can use for entertaining friends. Again, the traditional bedroom decor is not suitable There should be studio beds, provision for guest seating (even if on the floor), a table for games and snacks, space for television and record player, storage for books, records, clothing; a spot for hobby work and study with proper lighting and seating for study and at least one comfortable chair for reading .

A kitchen that includes separate dinette area may be organized also for small childrens play, as a reading or study corner. Usually, however, its best not to plan for sewing or hobby work in this area since the clutter will interfere with meals. Often, a small desk for household accounts and menu planning can be squeezed into a kitchen with a shelf above for cookbooks. Even a wall unit with a let-down desk shelf will be handy.

Space saving laundry appliances make it possible to fit these facilities into kitchen.

convertibility. is the separate dining room. Although life styles differ, in many homes the dining room may be used chiefly for Sunday dinner and special occasions. Again, proper attention to furnishings will

allow this room to serve its primary function but work also as a library or study, a recreation-music center.

Garden Clinic

N.C. State University Answers Timely Gardening Questions Q. My apples look nice and firm, but when I cut into them they have dry-rot spots inside. What is wrong? (T.U., Greensboro)

A. I would guess that your apples have corkspot. If the spots are just under the skin they are most likely caused by a calcium deficiency. If they are deep, the apples may have a boron deficiency. Adequate lime to give a pH of 6 to 6.5 plus a boron spray has reduced this problem in most orchards. (Melvin H. Kolbe. extension hortictdturist)

Q. We have a Hickory tree that bears a hefty crop of nuts that interfere with the mowing of our lawTi. Is there any way to prevent this? (G.H., Asheboro) A. Not as long as you keep the tree healthy Bearing fruit is as natural as breathing. Almost any tree you have in the yard drops undesirable leaves or fruit. Think of the persimmon tree, then be thankful for a healthy hickory. (Fred E Whitfield, extension forest resources sp>ecialist)

Q. How can I save my tomato plants from being killed by the

first frost this fall? (J.R., Albemarle)

A. Cover the plants with a protective material such as plastic, blankets or bed sheets. Make sure you cover the plants before the temperature drops below freezing. Use stakes or wires to keep the cover from touching the plants. Let the cover go all the way to the ground to conserve soil warmth, and keep the plants covered until the temperature is well above freezing. (A.A. Banadyga, extension horticulturist)

Q. How should we care for a red oleander which we brought from Florida last summer? (Mrs. W.T., Salemburg)

A. For the winter, take the plant inside to a sun room, bright basement or window of good sunlight. Reduce watering gradually until just enough is given plant to prevent bark shriveling Then water well when soil becomes dry to the touch. This is better than applying a bit of water every few days. Next summer, place the oleander outside in full sun. Give it plenty of water. When roots become crowded, repot. (Henry J. Smith, extension landscape horticulturist)

Vacation House & Tax Deferment

Among the benefits of being a homeowner are the unique tax advantages available. One of them to be wary of is the provision which allows you to defer paying income tax on any profit made from the sale of your home if you buy a more expensive one within a certain amount of time. It does not apply in all cases.

For example, if you sell a vacation home at $2,000 profit and promptly buy a much more expensive place, can you defer paying the income tax on the profit? The answer is nol

This tax break is<

available only when both the house sold and the house purchased serve as your principle residence. A vacation house doesn't qualify. However, if you owned the dwelling for more than six months before selling it, the $2,000 is a long-term capital gain. If not, it's a short-term capital gain, which is .usually taxed as ordinary income.

ON THE

HOUSE

By ANDY LANG AP .Newsfeatures

Buying a house entails a lot more than merely choosing one of a particular size and style.

This is especially important in the case of the elderly, who must find their housing satisfaction in factors that usually

are more vital than the number of rooms and baths, even though these are important.

All of know at least one retired couple who sold their old home, bought one in a new location and. after a year or two. were dissatisfied and perhaps made a second move.

Here's the Answer

By ANDY LANG AP .Newsfeatures Q. The drawers of the bureau in our bedroom stick every summer. They work perfectly in the winter. WTiy does this happen and what can we do about it to make the drawers work more smoothly during the summer**

A The drawers stick in the summer because of the generally high humidity in your area during that time WTien the heat in your house is turned on. the air becomes drier and the wood in the drawers shrinks. To correct the condition. wait until a dry day when the drawers are working properly. Take out the drawers and seal every part of them with shellac diluted 50 per cent with denatured alcohol. Give particular attention to areas which have no finish on them. Also, seal all wood portions of the frame which come in contact with the drawers, especially the sliding parts.

Fridayvacation day.

Q. Which give off more heat incandescent bulbs or fluorescent tubes'*

A The incandescents The fluorescents give more light per wattage but less heat

Q. -r- Is there any kind of varnish that resists alcohol spills'*

A. There are several kinds of warnishes and synthetics with such resistance. One has the nickname of bar" varnish and can be obtained in most specialty paint shops and some hardware stores and lumber yards.

Q One of the tiles on our bathroom wall has a big crack in it. I tried patching it but the repair looks worse than the crack did. Can a single tile be removed from the wall without damaging the others'* I think the tiles are ceramic.

A. Yes. it can be removed, but it must be done very carefully. Use a cold chisel to break the damaged tile AFTER you have scored the tile around its four edges in the grouted joints. Hit the chisel lightly with a hammer, doing it without haste. 'The idea is to break up the tile with dozens of blows rather than attempting to smash it with a few blows. You may have to shop around a bit to get a tile that will match the rest of the wall. When you do get it. have the dealer give you some cement that will hold the tile firmly as well as grouting compound. Scrape the old cement from the wall, apply the new to the back of the tile and press it in place. When it has set. use grout to refill the joints.

sometimes back to the former area. Rarely, if ever, has any such couple complained about the house per se Their reasons for not being satisfied were related to such things as location, climate, social and personal privacy, neighbors, accessibility to facilities and. in some cases, just plain loneliness In the latter case, the absence of loved relatives and friends played a part in this feeling.

It would be easy to assume that, considering such reasons, some pattern would be apparent on which to base wise decisions Surveys show otherwise People cant always predict accurately how they will react to unfamiliar situations Some of the elderly who did not wish to be located near children or other relatives (about 60 per cent in one survey) found later that they had moved too far away and that meetings were too infrequent to satisfy them. Others who believed it important to be near relatives wished later that they had followed their first impulses and moved to more desirable climatic locations hundreds of miles away.

Lucky indeed is the elderly couple who can forecast precisely which characteristics will be most important to them in retirement. Even luckier is the couple who can afford to hang on to their present home and perhaps lease it while they rent a house for a year in the area they have selected.

Conscientious real estate brokers can be of great help to those who want to settle in a region not familiar to them. As Stuart Davis, president of the Real Estate Board of Metropolitan St. Louis, puts it:

We are in the people business. not the house business. We dont sell houses; we find the right homes for people

Offshore Drilling Preparations Underway

By STAN BENJAMIN Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) The Interior Department is steadily continuing preparations to open the Atlantic Coast and the Gulf of Alaska to offshore oil drilling next year, provided environmental or legal obstacles dont foil its hopes.

Undersecretary John C. Whitaker says he told the Bureau of Land Management and the Geological Survey to prepare

a schedule for leasing in the Atlantic, the Gulf of Alaska, or alternately in the Gulf of Mexico, with the target of leasing 10 million acres in 1975.

Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., said an orderly development plan could not be prepared in one year and charged, The decision is premature and potentially disastrous if it is implemented fully.

Sen. Clifford P. Case, R-N.J., also said that any firm com-

Inflation Hits Language

mitment to lease areas of the Atlantic Ocean for offshore oil drilling at this time is premature.

But Whitaker said in an interview Friday there has been no decision on where to lease offshore in 1975.

The schedule he ordered, including specific lease-sale dates, may not actually be carried out, but is needed so the Interior Department can assign funds and manpower to prepare the environmental studies required, Whitaker said.

Whitaker noted that Interior cannot legally make offshore leasing decisions before com

pleting environmental studies and cannot lease in the Atlantic until the Supreme Court settles a jurisdictional dispute with the coastal states.

Meanwhile, U.S. hopes for driving down world oil prices by reducing demand received encouragement from Saudi Arabias oil minister. Sheik Ahmed Zaki Yamani.

Federal Energy Administrator John C. Sawhill appeared in a panel discussion^with Yamani on Friday and asked him whether the world oil price would go down if industrial nations cut demand.

I think if you do this, it will go

down, unless some of the major producers come down and cut drastically their production, Yamani replied.

Now, the major producers of the world who can do this ... number Saudi Arabia, and I can tell you right now we wont cut our production, Yamani added.

Yamani said Iran was the other major producer; Irans ambassador Ardesheir Zahedi, in the first row of the audience, quickly stated Iran, too, would refrain from cutting production to create artificial shortages and bolster high oil prices.

Yamani proposed during the discussion a meeting of seven or

Associated Press Writer

CENTRALIA, 111. (AP) - Inflation is devaluing the language as well as the dollar.

For/^iittance, when you want to poirt out a ridiculously low price you might say, Its dirt cheap. But dirts not so cheap anymore.

Illinois highway officials building Interstate 64 say they, paid 72 cents a cubic yard for dirt fill in 1972, $1.30 last year and $1.55 this month.

Chicken feed, another synonym for cheapness, has doubled in price in two years. A 100-pound sack, about as much as a chicken eats in its life, now costs $9.50. Thats $7 more than the purchase price of a chicken.

Then theres the American expression: Not worth a Continental.

Inflation spawned that one when the Continental Congress issued so much unsecured currency it wasnt worth the paper it was printed on.

But inflation has pushed the worth of a 1776 vintage Continental in good condition to $40, compared to about $15 two years ago.

The paper its printed on? Well, the paper you have in your hand, standard grade newsprint, costs about $11 a hundred weight. Fifteen months ago it was about $8.50.

If youre angry at something you might say: Its not worth the powder it takes to blow it up. Gunpowder prices have shot up 22 to 40 per cent, depending on grade, since last year. A pound will cost you $2.03, or 58 cents more than a year ago.

Finally, there is a phrase the colonists brought with them: Not worth a tinkers damn. Its hard to find a tinker anymore, but there does happen to

Ignores Conservation Pleas

Trends In The South

ATLANTA, Ga. (AP) The Southern Regional Council has announced formation of a task force to review development trends in the rural South.

George Esser Jr., executive director of the SRC, said the 18-month study will be financed by $265,000 in grants from three foundations Edna McConnel Clark, the Ford Foundation and the R(x:kefeller Brothers Fund.

Dr. Alexander Heard, chancellor of Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., and Dr. Vivian Henderson, president of Clark College in Atlanta, were named cochairmen of the task force.

The problem of Southern rural development presents without question the single greatest challenge to those who are genuinely concerned about the future of the South, Heard said.

SEC is a biracial research organization supported by grants from foundations and private citizens.

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. (AP) Mayor Raymond Weiland doesnt believe the Tennessee Valley Authority is running short of coal, so hes urging residents to ignore the agencys power conservation pleas.

As far as I am concerned, the City of Brentwood will not turn

off its street lights and will not reduce any other use of electricity, Weiland said Neither I as mayor of Brentwood, nor the federal government have the right to tell the citizens of Brentwood that they must eliminate their outdoor Christmas lighting this season, he said.

Fears Frost Toll

This weeks record-low temperatures and heavy frosts have taken their toll on Virginias soybean and peanut crops, agricultural scientists say.

They estimated Friday that crop yields could drop 10 to 30 per cent because of the frost.

An aerial survey of the major peanut-producing counties in southeastern Virginia found that about 8 per cent of the crop was dug and ready for combining when the frost hit.

Most of those peanuts will be

PEANUTS

graded at a lower quality and will bring lower prices, the scientists said.

The soybean loss may reach an estimated 300,000 bushels in Virginia. And the agricultural scientists say with soybean prices at about $9 a bushel, farmers stand to lose more than $2.5 million.

About 99 per cent of the flue-cured tobacco crop already has been harvested, so damage to that crop was termed insignificant by extension agents.

On the contrary, I urge all citizens to Brentw(X)d to celebrate Christmas more than ever before, hoping this will help our federal government return to morality.

The TVA, citing a growing shortage of coal for its generating plants, has urged cities, industry and individuals to cut their electricity useage by 20 per cent.

Several cities have already made plans to reduce street lighting, but Brentwood will not be one of them, Weiland said.

Brentwood is a Williamson County suburb of Nashville.

I believe this is merely a scheme for greatly increasing the cost of electricity and once the price has skyrocketed, as did gasoline, then the shortage will immediately disappear as did the gasoline shortage, the mayor said.

eight nations, including oil producers, consumers and underdeveloped countries, to prepare the agenda of a wider discussion of oil-related problems

Meanwhile, Sen. Henry M Jackson, D-Wash., proposed that the United States set a ceiling on oil imports to limit the transfer of its wealth to the oil-producing nations.

This will tell them loud and clear that imports will not be allowed to rise until prices comedown, Jackson told a Democratic fund-raising dinner in Manchester, N.H.

My brown corduroys, said my son.

Theyre dirty.

I know, but Dan is wearing his today. Wheres my shirt? The clean ones are in your closet.

I want the T-shirt I tie-dyed in art class.

Ive been dusting the piano with it.

Mom! Cmon, Im going to be late.

Why cant you wear a clean one?

Dan is going to wear his tie-dye.

Your hair looks funny. Cant you do something with that cowlick?

Ill see if Dan wears his ... if not. Ill take it off. Where are my shoes?

Where are they usually?

He thought a moment. In the bathroom, under the bed, on the porch, in the car, in my locker, the bike basket, the school bus, the hall closet, the playground, the drugstore, or Dans house. Wear your good ones. They got dust on them. You trying to make me look bad?

Did you brush your teeth*' No. Dans not brushing his If I were Dans mother. I lock him up on trash day for h own safety.

I think Dan looks neat. Wait a minute, let me take a look at you, I said. Whats that pink around your mouth? Kool-Ade.

I didnt know you had Kool-Ade for breakfast.

I didnt.

Out! I said, ordering him back to the bathroom.

Minutes later he stood proudly before me, the picture of poverty in a pair of wrinkley corduroys, a tacky T-shirt, hair that looked like an unmade bed, and a pair of gym shoes with so many knots I thought he was wearing macrame.

Do you have any idea how you look? I asked tiredly.

I knew youd be pleased. he said. Today we have our class pictures taken.

e 1974 by The Chicago Tribuna

DEAR ABBY: 1 am an older widower, financially comfortable and. perhaps unwisely, am deeply in love with a 44-year-old widow.

Recently she has been going haphazardly with a man she met by mail. It's "hap" for him because he never calls or writes to let her know in advance that hes coming. It's hazard for her because he has never given her an address or telephone number where he can be reached although she has asked repeatedly. Nor has he given her a single clue through which he could be traced or identified. He claims he lives in a certain city, but says he travels a lot and his address and phone number wouldnt help any.

He claims he owns a home worth from $90.000 to $100,000, but wants to sell it and buy a home with her. since he thinks she has $50,000. I'm afraid he's only after her money.

Id like your answer soon, no matter how you see it. 1 will let her read it. J. IN LAUDERDALE

DEAR J.: I see either a woman so naive that she shouldnt be out alone after dark, or one who is so blinded by infatuation that she cant read the handwriting on the wall.

I also see an older, financially comfortable widower who thinks he could win this lady were it not for the slippery salesman. The widowers strategy is to eliminate his competition by exposing him for the fraud he is, thus capturing the fair damsel.

I wish you luck, but dont get your hopes up. Love abhors logic.

DEAR ABBY: A man wrote in complaining that before a party, his wife will call her lady friends to ask whether they are wearing pants or a dress.

He said hed never heard of a MAN doing this.

Hes right. Ive never heard of a man calling up another man to ask him if he was wearing pants or a dress, have you?

LAURIE

DEAR LAURIE: Yes. But then people tell me things theyd never tell anyone else.

DEAR ABBY: How do you feel about forcing a man to retire when he reaches a certain age? CURIOUS

DEAR CURIOUS: I like the way a gentleman from Morganton, N.C., put it. He said: Im against mandatory retirement. It ought to be left to the individuals. It is a shame to assume that all fools are old fools. Ive found there are more young fools than old fools. Nature has a way of getting rid of old fools. (Thank you. Senator Sam Ervin.)

DEAR'ABBY: The person who wrote to you saying that big noses and flat bosoms are "in is out of her (or his) mind.

Since when is a well-developed nose more desirable than a well-developed bosom?

If a woman wants to look like Barbra Streisand, I might agree, but if she wants to please a man, the bosom has it over the nose any day.

When a man turns around to get a second look at a girl, you can be sure its not her NOSE hes looking at.

And who ever heard of a movie star getting silicone implants in her NOSE?

What do you suppose would happen to Playboy magazine if they showed nothing but pictures of girls with big noses?

I think Im fairly representative of the average guy, and for my part, if a gal is stacked, I wouldnt even notice her nose. COWBOY-HAMILTON. MONTANA

LONDON (AP) The mini is fini.

Britains gift to the world of womens fashions, the miniskirt. is finally gone after hovering near hip-level heights for the past ten years.

The last stitch in this hemline-dropping event was sewn by one of the biggest firms of chain stores in the country. C & A.

A spokesman for the company, which four years ago sold thousands of minis, each day. said: JJThere will be no more minis when present stocks have gone. They just dont sell nowadays

The firm was just about the last of the major holdouts. Most of the other big department stores and fashion chains had dropped the mini for longer lengths within the past two years, or more.

The mini was introduced in the early 1960b, largely by fashion designer Mary Quant. For the last three years, many designers have given up (or down) on the mini, although a lot of lean-legged gals kept them up

COLLEGE STATION, Tex. (UPI) Marilyn Brown, a consumer education specialist in the clothing and textiles at the Texas A&M University system says there are advantages to buying clothes for the family instead of sewing them.

The advantages to buying ready-made clothes are:

They can be seen in final form and are ready for immediate use.

Many fabrics in ready to wear garments are not available in piece goods.

Buying rather than making saves time.

Many notions and trimmings are available to the manufacturer but not to the home sewer.

More consumer information is available on ready to wear clothing than on bolts of fabrics.

Miss Brown said women who want to make their familys clothes should consider the following questions:

Can you plan and visualize the garment well enough to be satisfied when it is completed?

Do you have the necessary time to finish a quality garment?

Do you have the skill to make the garment as planned?

Do you have the necessary equipment?

Can you find the fabric and notions of the quality, color and textures desired?

Can you fit yourself properly'

Is your motivation sufficient to make yourself give up other activities in favor of this^

Fresh mushrooms need not be peeled. The skin is delicate and flavorsome.

For slicing, choose tomatoes that are well-formed. Avoid lopsided, angular or elongated ones. For dicing or chunking, the shape of the fruit is unimportant.

Recipes Okay, But Angels Are Banned

^AO PAULO (UPI) - An unofficial manual prepared by several Brazilian newspaper editors is currently circulating thfough newsrooms in Brazil to h;)p newsmen decide what will and will not get by the censors.

The list covers a wide range of .forbidden items, but basical-lythe censors prohibit publica-fio/i of news that in any way could be interpreted as critical of Brazils military regime, or dapiaging to the nations national security.

^me of the taboos include:

Criticism of the countrys ctnsorship system itself.

-Any news dealing with f^'lder Camara, archbishop of (Jinda and Recife and one of the most outspoken critics of itazils military rulers.

News of anti-Brazilian d[*monstrations abroad, such as tje one held last year during the Brazil Export Fair in li-ussels.

Reports describing the uj)rk of national security forces.

Reporting armed confrontations between police and t^rorists.

! Speculation concerning

llesponded to 42 Calls

During the month of Sep-t^ber, a total of 42 fire alarms were received by the 18 stations of the Pitt County Fire Depart njent, according to Pitt County Fjre Marshal Bobby Joyner. JThe 42 alarms covered a total of 3.S fires (there was one false alarm and seven cases of mutual ajd, where one department assists another).

Of the September tally, 12 were house fires; 10 were for buildings other than houses; efeht were automobile fires; and trtbre were four fires in the (JJegory of miscellaneous. jAn estimated $61,350 in jiueperty was lost in the fires, \h property valued at ap-pS>ximately $114,900 involved in tj^ fires.

J)f the 18 departments, Falkland was the busiest during September, answering a total of eBht alarms.

Z LOU PAY Augusta, Maine (Upd -

Ijf Department of Labor ^JJtistics shows that production lAHrkers in Maine earn less I An workers in other New pSgland states. The average hflirly wage in Maine is $3.41, cjjn pared with a high in f^necticut of $4.39.

subversive or terrorist activities or news of trials of subversives.

Reports of torture, hunger strikes, or descriptions of the prisons where political prisoners are held.

Stories dealing with racial or social discrimination.

Any sensational accounts of abandoned children or the kidnap of minors.

When the newspaper O Estado de Sao Paulo wants to publish a censored story, it will sometimes distribute a copy of the banned report to members of the foreign press, which is not censored.

Most Brazilian newspapers practice self-censorship. O Estado, however, is a strong critic of the military regimes suppression of the freedom of expression and refuses to subscribe to self-censorship. It forces the government to send two censors to its newsroom every night to read every word.

Stories cut out by the censors are always replaced by poetry or cooking recipes, even on the front page.

Recently the weekly newsmagazine Veja started a similar tactic by replacing censored stories with little pictures of angels. However, the censors found this to be offensive and ordered the practice discontinued.

/orld in Florida, a distance of ^056 miles.

Of course, the car rode a railroad train for 1,712 of those miles. And our family of five arrived in Florida rested after 15>/2 hours on a gently rocking train.

'The ride, aboard the two-year-old Auto-Train, cost us $273 each way. We estimated an unhurried highway trip would have required two nights in motels, six meals, gasoline, tolls and car wear at a cost of about $225.

Auto-Train, the first new common carrier formed in the United States in more than 50 years, had another idea, at least for people without air-conditioned cars, with three kids in the back seat and a short vacation. Auto-Train boards its East Coast passengers at Lorton, Va.. 15 miles south of Washington and just off 1-95, at 6 p.m. daily. They get off at Sanford, Fla., 37 miles north of Disney World at 9:30 a.m., the next day. And each day, one train leaves Florida for the trip north.

In the Midwest, a train leaves Louisville, Ky., at 3:30 p.m. and arrives in Sanford at 2:30 p.m. the next day, a 22-hour trip between times zones. 'The same train leaves Sanford the following day for Louisville. 'There is only one train operating on the Louisville-Sanford run.

The East Coast run started on Dec. 6, 1971, and the Midwest run last May 24.

Officials say ' success has been spelled out by profits, a long reservations list and the novelty of transporting a car.

The gas crisis increased interest in our service, says Richard J. Church, director of public relations.

TTie trains have carried 590,-000 passengers and 204,000 cars so far.

The firms last financial statement, issued April 30, shows that revenue for the previous 12 months was $21,600,000, up 52 per cent from the $14 million taken in during the first full year of operations.

Earnings in the first year were $804,000. That figure jumped to $1,568,000 in the second year. Stockholders found their investment earnings almost doubling too, from 56 cents per share to $1.05.

Since the trains make no stops en route, except for servicing and crew changes, the costs are standard.

On the Lorton-Sanford route, the base fare one way is $198 for an automobile and two occupants for the 856-mile ride. At Louisville, 988 miles from Sanford, the base fare is $225. Each additional passenger pays $25. And private sleeping compartments are extra, ranging from $45 for two people to $85 for five.

Except for liquor, soft drinks and giRs from a small shop, there are no other costs. 'The base fare includes dinner and breakfast, plus lunch on the Louisville run. Theres also a

A Consumers' Guide To Doctors Stirs Reaction

By WILLIAM C. WERTZ Associated Press Writer

SPRINGFIELD, 111. (AP) A consumers guide to doctors, complete with prices, stirred up a hornets nest of controversy here, but its publisher believes it is a useful tool which should be adopted elsewhere.

Patterned after a similar guide by consumer advocate Ralph Nader, the guide lists a doctors fees and office hours and tells where he was educated and whether he accepts Medicare patients.

It was just like stirring up a hornets nest. It was unbelievable, said Ron Sakolsky, who headed the project in this central Illinois city of 100,000.

The medical society has a vested interest in keeping consumers in the dark. They dont want consumers to be able to make easy comparisons of such things as fees, said Sakolsky, an assistant professor at Sangamon State University.

Naders Health Research Group prepared the first such guide in 1973 in Prince Georges County, Md. It was

designed to be a model for similar guides throughout the nation.

Robert McGarrah of Washington, D.C., who headed the Nader project, said in a telephone interview that the Springfield guide was the second one to be completed. McGarrah said about a dozen more are being prepared elsewhere in the country.

Anyone who has ever had to find a doctor knows how much trouble it is, McGarrah said. Sometimes the medical society has a referral bureau that will give you the names of a few doctors but they never say whether the doctor is any good or charges so much for a five-minute visit that youd be better off in a hospital emergency room.

The Springfield guide is available for free at bookstores and other shops. Sakolsky said that while the guide may not be able to give definitive advice on a physicans skill, it can provide some hints, like his hospital staff appointments.

Because of opposition from

Passengers have their choice of riding on the first pr second decks of glass-domed coaches. A typical train carries 160 automobiles and about 500 passengers at an average speed of 60 miles an hour. Top speed is 79 m.p.h.

Auto-Train Corp. president Eugene Kerik Garfield, 38. an attorney, was an assistant to the secretary of transportation in Washington when he saw a research report in 1968 that concluded an auto-ferry concept would be profitable.

Congress, which had authorized the $3-million, three-year study in 1965, determined that the plan should be pursued by private industry. Garfield left the transportation department in 1969, got financial backing from private investors and

formed the corporation.

First, he signed agreements with the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac line to lease their tracks for 15 years with a renewal option for 15 more years.

'Then he bought passenger coaches from the Atchison. Topeka and Santa Fe, the Western Pacific, the Seaboard Coast Line and the Union Pacific.

Next, he went to the Canadian National Railway for autocarriers and to General Electric Co. for new locomotives. Finally, he had terminal facilities built at l.,orton and Sanford.

Garfields corporation paid for its equipment through a public .sale of stock. 'The offering of 700,000 shares at $10 each was sold out in one day on July 15. 1971, and Garfield had $7 million.

Within 4'l months, he and his associates put the private railroad together.

the Sangamon County Medical Society, only 54 of Springfields 215 d.octors provided the requested information for the ^ guide, Sakolsky said. The other doctors were listed in the guide as being uncooperative.

'The medical society mailed its members an alert memo which said: It might be considered prudent NOT to approve the publishing of information requested.

Dr. Donald >Yurdin, the society president, said he sent out the alert not because were trying to hide anything, but we question whether its either ethical or legal for us to supply some of the information.

The Illinois Medical Practices Act, like similar laas in other states, prohibits physicians from advertising or soliciting for professional business except in professional and telephone directories. Such listings cannot contain fee information.

Sakolsky said his group plans to update the guide every year. He said he believes more and more doctors will participate.

STOCKHOLM <AP) - Some 40 American health educators went to Uppsala, Sweden, this past summer to study sex education, Swedish style, looking not for sin which is always there in the eye of the beholder but for advice on how to teach the controversial subject.

Sweden is one of the very few countries in the world where sex education is compulsory from the first grade when the child is 7 and up.

Q,7 Neither vulnerable, as South you hold:

What action do you take?

SMITHY SCHOOL XENIA, Ohio (UPI) - The Midwest Farrier School here is one of only seven schools in the nation where students leam to be blacksmiths.

*T was surprised to learn that the Swedes are not as uninhibited in sex matters as we were made to believe back home. said the Rev. William R. Grosh from University of Hawaii.

But it is true, though, that both the government and the people here seem to have more liberal ideas about sex than we. They dont fuss so much about it.

'The Rev. M. Grosh is Episcopalian campus minister at a community college in Hawaii and he teaches human sexuality with the bishops permission.

Steve Sloan from Paducah. Ky., graduate student at New York University (NYU). Was disappointed.

No beautiful Swedish blondes swarmed around me when 1 arrived. 'The image of Swedish Sin in the United States has proved wrong but the Swedes do seem more liberal in their attitudes towards sex. Theres not so much talk about it, he said.

The eight-week, 13-credit course, labeled the NYU graduate study of human sexuality, marriage and family life in Sweden, was located in this faraway corner of Europe because Sweden provides a particularly interesting laboratory since its industrial progress has developed all the illnesses of advanced societies, said NYU professor Dr. Marian Hamburg, director of the human sexuality program.

She conducted the first half of the course in Uppsala.

Sweden has pioneered in health care as well as programs of early sex education, she added.

Sex education has been taught in Swedish schools for more than 20 years and was made compulsory in 1956.

tion at the time said, as they do in the United States and elsewhere now, that it would encourage license and that young people would not marry as they could enjoy sex anyway. They maintained the new generation would not want to bother with children, and venereal diseases would spread like wildfire.

But the reality seems to be different. So far, there have been no signs of family life being destroyed in Sweden. In fact, the latest vogue among the youngsters is to have a real wedding. A study made at Stockholm University in 1967 showed that 80-85 per cent of the girls thought it right to have intercourse only if one was in love. Roughly half the boys asked agreed.

VD has undeniably increased, particularly gonorrhea, but that is a global phenomenon.

"The NYU students, however, this summer found out that the ambitious sex education programs do not always work out well. Teachers are frequently not adequately prepared to deliver such education despite the elaborate government instruction.

'The teacher is the key to a sensible sex education, said Ronald Moglia of Philadelphia, Pa., who himself trains teachers in health education.

But we have to know more about our own sexuality before teaching; we have discussed that at length here, sort of a group therapy, he added.

Deryck Calderwood, assistant professor at NYU, who was in charge of the latter part of the course in Uppsala, said that he thinks most parents in the United States would like their children to learn more about

sex and the children most certainly want to know more.

In 1970 he made a survey for his doctoral thesis asking 12,000 school children around the United States what questions they had about sex. 'The result was a flood of queries.

Which goes to show how wrong the parents and teachers were who said Not our kids, they wouldnt ask questions like that, said Elaine Smith, sex educator at a community college in Seattle, Wash.

'The Uppsala course, which due to its success will be repeated next summer, drew participants from all over the United State as NYU is one of the few American universities that now has a human sexuality program. Half of them were graduate students and half were professionals in the field, from school health workers to

dental technicians.

'They did not study sex education only. On their program were visits to hospitals, day care centers, a homosexual club homosexuality in Sweden is not illegal and Stockholm live shows which were not particularly exciting, as one of them put it.

Comparing Sweden with the United States in the field of sex education. Calderwood said:

Sweden is far more advanced legally. There are. for instance, no laws against behavior, such as homosexuality, but laws dont necessarily change peoples attitudes.

Bing Sings

There were several days last year when an uneasy nation listened to newscast closely, hofng to hear a report on the state of health of one of the most beloved of all entertainers, Bing Crosby, who lay seriously ill in a Los Angeles hospital. Well, recover he did, and now hes back with the same old easy-going style of performing thats been his trademark through his 40 year career. His many fans who agonized through his illness will, once again, have the opportunity to sit back and relax as they view his music-comedy special, Bing Crosby and His Friends, Wednesday evening, October 9, 9:00 to 10:00, on Channel 9-11, when Bing hosts pals Bob Hope, Pearl Bailey and Sandy Duncan.

In addition to original music written for the broadcast, a special se^ent will feature the four stars in a medley of some of the songs the chrismatic Crosby has made famous. The accent will be on song through the show, with production numbers and comical banter w(H*ked into the musical framewoiic.

During his legendary career, Crosby has introduced more than 800 songs, sold more than 300 million records, starred in more top money making films than any other performer, and won an Academy award for one of them. For a musical performer, selection of the right music pLays a large part in success, he says.

The spry, 70-year-old performer claims his most serious problem now is not filling his days, but finding sufficient time to do his own thing, noting that I go fishing a lot in Mexico, and I shoot, play golf, play tennis only doubles now, no more singles for this old frame.

I doubt if Ill ever make another movie, Crosby says.

Records

The prc^ram that has brought to television the tallest man, the richest cat, the worst driver and the fastest knitter among scores of other unusual champions, David Frost Presents the Guinness Book of World Records, will emphasize the newest record holders, those who might be able to claim the crown in their very special field of interest on the air, in its next production for the ABC Television Network.

Television is much more satisfying for a performer like me. It reaches more people at one time than will fn-obably see a film during its entire run. And, I like the togetherness with an audience that television offers.

Since his first long-ago meeting with Hope, on stage at the Capitol Theatre in New York, Crosby and the famed comedian have traveled many film Roads and into numerous radio and television studios tc^ether and have worked several times with Miss Bailey individually and in tandem.

Asked if there were going to be any more Road films in the future the last one was The Road to Hong Kong in 1962 Crosby said, Weve kicked around some ideas, but I dont think so, really.

Hope, however, in traditional Crosby-Hope banter, said, Id like to do another Road film before Crosby gets too old.

Before gaining national fame in her popular Funny Face comedy series. Miss Duncan, who considers being billed as a friend of Bing Crosby her highest accolade to date, won Tony nominations for her roles in Broadways Canterbury Tales and a revival (rf The Bov Friend.

SANDY DUNCAN, Bing Crosby. Pearl Bailey and Bob Hope (left to rigbt) join together for an hour of comedy and music on Bing Crosby and His

Friends. a special presentation Wednesday (Oct 9) at 9 p.m. on Channels 3N-9-11.

Has A Grandmother* Image

ELLEN CORBY

When I interviewed Ellen Corby, who plays Grandma Walton in the highly popular show, The Waltons, she was sporting a beautiful, round gold pin that was sent to me by one of my fans. She receives many letters and gifts from fans in all comers of the world who say I remind them of their grandmother, or how a grandmother should be.

It was this image she unconsciously exudes at won her the part on The Waltons. She had appeared in an earlier TV play by Earl Hamner, Appalachian Autumn, and, when casting began for the part of his grandmother, he contacted me. I didnt try out for the part Rather, I had reminded him of his grandmother. . . . theres a little sterness in my face. . . and he felt my qualities were similar to hers. She wore her hair back as I do, and she wore violets. If you remember, last year in a wed

ding sequence, I w(M'e violets. I asked if winning the Emmy was her proudest moment in her theatrical career.

No. She said emphatically. It Wasnt. Actually, I had a very proud moment when I won the Golden Globe Award this year, because, 26 years ago I won it for I Remember Mama. That was a very proud moment. Not the award itself, but because, in a way, it told me Id been a success and that Id had a successful career throughout the years. Miss Corby learned the business through her position as a script supervisor for 11 years, and credits these years to her long lasting career as an actress. I feel Im a little ahead (rf most actors in that I have an awareness and understanding of the people behind the scenes, and what theyre trying to accomplish.

What about Will Geer? .(Grandpa Walton)

She laughed and replied, Will Geer is everything theyre going to say he is. Hes a remai^ble man. . . a b<N*n ecologist. . . a free soul. . . he even sleeps outside every night!

Weve had no trouble with our characters at all. We talked it over at the beginning, and, at first, I consider him the ei^th child. Weve outgrown tniat, thank heavens!

The few scenes weve had in bed are humorous but real, because you cant get offended at people in their 70s. So, weve found that we can get by with many things that, if we were twenty years younger, could very well be offensive.

Ellen says the three boys who play her grandsons gravitate to her and, of the three, Jon Walms-ley the red - headed, freckle faced Jason, seems to be the closest to her Jon has no grandparents; I have no grand-(Continued on page 2)

Wall Street may never be the same. Not because of the sowon-trending stock market, but because Kojak was there.

During the series recent location trip to New York City, the Wall Street area, long symbolized by staid bankers and conservative businessmen, was used to film the Wall Street Gunslinger episode <rf Kojak, to be broadcast Sunday, Oct. 6, (8:30-9:30 p.m.) on Channel 9-11.

After the first caU for Action! by director Dick Donner, the worcl passed faster than a hot stock tip through the canyons of tall buildings that Telly Avalas and his Kojak cast were filming. Soon an avalanche of specators created a crowd problem.

It was scary, recalls Donner, Evei^time Telly appeared he was mobbed and shooting came to an abrupt halt I had to ask Telly to stay in his trailor until I needed him, for his own safety, and so that we could shoot the scenes with the other actors.

Later in the day, the crowds became even larger and more enthusiastic, to the point where Bert Armus, a New York Police Department detective and the series technical adviser, and several other stalwart males were pressed into service as a human wedge to get Savalas through the bystanders.

Although it was most gratifying, Savalas remarked, it was a little frightening. I was afraid somebody was going to get crushed in that mob. Luckily, nobody got hurt.

Savalas obliged as* many autograph seekers as possible. When scraps of paper were not available, the Wall Street workers produced, appropriately enough, paper money to be signed

I bet we put several thousand dollars out of circulation today, Savalas quipped.

Van Dyke In Mystery

Dick Van Dyke guest-stars as a soft spoken photographer who carries out a deadly plan to liberate himself from a domineering wife in Negative Reaction, a two-hour episode of NBC Television Networks Columbo, to be colorcast on the NBC Sunday Mystery Movie series October 6, 8:30 to 10 p.m., wi Channel 6-7. Peter Falk stars in the title role.

Wealthy, successful photographer Paul Galesko (Van Dyke) plots the slaying of his wife, Frances (guest star Antionette Bower), by carrying out a phony kidnap scheme. Galesko cleverly frames ex-convict Alvin Deschler (guest star Don Gordon), who becomes Geleskos second homicide victim. LL Columbo (Falk), disbelieving what appears to be an open - and - shut case against Deschler, pursues the investigation.

The guest cast includes Joanna Cameron as Galeskos assistant Lorna McGrath; David Sheiner as publisher Serge San Martin; Vito Scotti as wino Thomas Dolan; Joyce Van Patten as sister Mary Anita; Larry Storch as motor vehicles examiner Oscar Week ley.

directors and started a renewal of interest in the 1950s, comes to television on the ABC Television Network as The ABC Sunday Night Movie. October 6 (9:00-11:15 p.m.) on (Channel 3W-5-12.

Newsweek critic Paul Zimmerman said, The Last Picture Show is a masterpiece. It is not merely the best American movie (rf (the) year; it is the most impressive work by a young American director since Citizen Kane. The San Francisco Chronicles Paine Knickerbocker called it an irresistible picture, unreservedly recommended, and Vincent Canby in the New York Times called it an irresisble film. ... a tribute to the kind of straightforward narrative filmmaking that flourished in the Hollywo^ of the 1930s and 1940s.

Written by Larry McMurty and Bogdanovich from McMurtys novel, the film also stars Timothy Bottoms, Jeff Bri(lges, Cybill Shepherd in her first picture show, Ellen Burstyn, Eileen Brennan, Clu Gulager, Sam Bottoms and Sharon Taggart The st<^, which was filmed on location in Archer City, Texas, where McMurty grew up, is about growing up. Sonny (Timothy Bottoms) and Duane (Jeff Bridges) are high school seniors and inseparable buddies, discovering more about the

beauty and pain of approaching manhood than they are quite rady to handle, trusting in the wisdom and understanding of Sam the Lion (Ben Johnson), a former cowboy who owns the local movie theatre, for security and guidance.

Their romances become too complicated for their emotional readiness when Duane falls for Jacy Farrow (Cybill Shepherd), the prettiest, richest and most self centered girl in town, and Sonny becomes involved with Ruth Peeper (Cloris Leachman), the lonely wife of the towns football coach.

The films concentration is on several people in the small, sterile town, struggling to live full lives, where true growth seems impossible, and invisible bars seem to exist Critic Andrew Sarris found the picture to be one of the healthiest movies I have seen in ages a refreshing affirmation of the life force of our civilization.

Surely the lady wearing the smart pants suit and pearl earrings could not be Joy Adamson. Yet it was.

Those who had never met the Avorld-famous author looked forward to her first visit to the set in Kenya, East Africa, where filming is being done on NBC Television Networics new Bom Free series, colorcast on Monday evening, 8 to 9, on Channel 6-7.

The overriding impression one gets from reading her books is ^at Joy Adamson is a person of exceptional courage, fearless in the most hostile environment and evidently disinterested in the comforts of modem living.

Instead, the visitor looked as if she were on her way to a shooing expedition at a fashionable st(x*e. Moreover, she insisted on a moments time to apply eye shadow before posing for the photographer.

But when Joy spoke to Diana Muldaur and Gary Collins, who her and her game warden isband in the NBC-TV series, it was quite clear that she was the same strong woman who had written of her amazing adventures in the rugged Kenyan terrain. She gave the pair advice for dealing with their animal co-stars.

No matter how brilliant you are as an actor, you must woi^ with the instinctive feelings of the animals. Let them come to you. Let them make the first move. Then they accept you.

To win their affection, scratch behind their ears or on the neck. But avoid petting on top of the head.

100 Years In Show Business

The Wynns, actor Keenan Wynn and his son, writer-director Tracy Wynn, together with an assortment of other relatives, are looking forward to their own centennial in 1976 when they will celebrate their familys 100th anniversary in show business.

Keenan and Tracy marked another couple of firsts recently when 'Tracy made his directing debut with Hit Lady, the ABC Television Networks Tuesday Movie of the Week airing October 8 with his father in a cameo role.

Keenan says that Tracy had called Keenans agent asking, Do you think Dad would work for me for one dy? With fatherly pride, Keenan remarks: You can bet I said yes. Recalling the day, Keenan adds, We were out at Thousand Oaks (a Rustic area 20 miles from Hollywood) and I was playing a wealthy cattleman who was hosting a big Texas barbecue. It was the first shot of the day with Yvette Mimieux and 'Tracy calls out, Action . . . Dad! What an exciting feeling that was.

SURVIVORS Peter Graves (right) and Michael-James Wixted portray two survivors of a virus produced by an explosion of the sun which has decimated most of the worlds pi^uiation, in Where Have All the People Gone?, a drama to be colorcast on NBC World Premiere Movie Tuesday, October 8 on Channel 6-7.

The saga of the Wynns started with Keenans grandfather, Frank Keenan, who literally made his debut carrying a spear in MacBeth at the 'Tremont Street Opera House in Boston bacli in May, 1876.

His daughter Hilda, also an actress, met a rising young comic named Ed Wynn, who became famous in every branch of entertainment.

'Their son, Keenan Wynn, now 58, has been acting for 40 years and has no plans to stop.

He has two motion pictures soon to be released, He is My Brother and Nashville. In current release is Disneys Herbie Rides Again.

But, preferring to talk about Tracy rather than himself, Keenan went on to say 'Tracy writes from a camramans angle and asks, Remember the

last eight minutes in Miss Jane Pittman (for which 'Tracy won an Emmy Award)? Theres not one word spoken,

Wynn believes his is the first family of four gnerations in show business and adds, Ill bet one of these days well make it five.

Last"

But Not Least

The well-worn adage, last but not least, takes on special significance when applied to Peter DeAnda, star of Cutter, The CBS Late Show, to be colorcast Wednesday, Oct. 9, at 11:30 D.m., on Channel 9-11. The young black actor was the last of the 100 contenders who auditioned for the role of Chicago private detective Frank Cutter, and he captured it imeediately.

Peter, who was in California filming The New Centurians with George C. Scott, explains: I was on the set filming until ten oclock at night and then hurried over to Universal to read for the Cutter role. It was 11 p.m. and the first' stages of production were to begin the following morning in Chicago.

The part was his and he spent the next several weeks filming in Chicago, a city he admires for its physical layout and intellectual atmosphere.

Peter, whose real name is Pedro (his father was Mexican), is the middle child of nine youngsters (2 girls and 7 boys).

He became interested in acting at an early age and attended theater workshop classes at the Pittsburgh Playhouse in his home town of Pittsburgh, Pa. I learned just by watching, he recalls.

and that is a technique 1 still apply today. I watch first, then I get up and do. Though his family was close-knit, Peter, who describes himself as a loner, often wanted to be by himself. I often took refuge on the back porch or in the library, he says. An avid reader today, the actor says he is apt to pick up and begin reading anything in print that someone lays down near him.

A FAILURE?

Though Evel Knievels superstunt turned out a flop. . . artistically, that is, the TV audience for Evel Knievel: One Man, One Canyon, attracted a 70 percent greater audience than its closest competition.

Giant wind storms struck about 100 c(xnmunities from the Gulf of Mexico to the Canadian border cm April 3 of this year. One oi the hardest hit by the tornadoes and later a disaster area was Xenia, Ohio, a town of about 25,000 pe(^le just east of Dayton.

What happened to this middle American town and its citizens will be the subject of Tornado! 4:40 p.m., Xenia, Ohio, the first in a series of NBC News Specials scheduled in the 1974-75 season. It will be colorcast on the NBC Television Network Thurs. Oct. 10 ( 8:00 - 9:00 p.m.), on Channel 7. NBC News correspondent Floyd Kalber will be the reporter on the program.

The term disaster area is commonly used in the news business, says executive producer George Murray, but few of us have had a chance to learn what, in the long run, that term really means. It was our intention to find out not from government officials in Washington but from the people of Xenia, who have survived an incredible calamity and now face an uncertain future during the difficult period of rebuilding their town.

Murray reports it was probably the worst disaster of its kind to hit any community in this country, and says the bare statistics alone only give a hint of the massive power of the storm.

It created a path of destruction about one-half-mile wide and about 10 miles long, damaging 2,659 homes. Of these, 1,095 were totally destroyed, and 660 suffered major damage. Six of the citys nine schools were destroyed, and 150 of the towns business establishments simply disappeared. The truly amazing fact, Mr. Murray says, is that only 35 people lost their lives.

The program will begin with the actual storm, its immediate aftermath, and the massive clean-up that followed. Through pictures and interviews with people in the town, from the editor of the Xenia Gazette, to old folks, city (Oficiis and children, television viewers will leam what the town and life in it was like before the wind came, and what a sudden catastrophe of this kind does to the human heart

JODIE FOSTER, as Addie Pray, Is wheedling her partner. Moses Pray (series star Chris Connelly) to stop in the next small town so she can put through a call to the President of the United States by way of celebrating her birthday, in Birthday, on ABC-TVs Paper Moon, airing Oct 10 (8:30-9 p.m.) on channels 3W-5.An Unlikely Duo In Shoot-em-Up

Robert Mitchum and Academy Award winner George Kenn^ star as the Old Wests unlikeliest pair of allies in The Good Guys and the Bad Guys, which has its television premiere on The CBS Thursday Night Movies Thursday, October 10, 9 to 11 p.m., in color on Channel 3N-9-11.

Also appearing in roles in the film are David Carradine, Martin Balsam, Tina Louise, John Carradine and Lois Nettleton.

James Flagg, for the last 20 years the sheriff of Progress, has been overtaken by progress in the turn-of-the-century Western town. He is unwillingly ousted from office by the vote-hun^ mayor. For Progress, the timing is unfortunate, since a noticeably mean - looking pack of cowboys, headed by young Waco, has been seen near town.

Then John McKay, in his youth a notorious badman, meets Flagg, now free-lancing for the sake of civic duty, and the pair forms an honest alliance against the outlaws.

The Good Guys and the Bad Guys was produced and written by Ronald M. Cohen and Dennis Shyrack.

This Is How To Go Ape

The questions most asked about Planet of the Apes involve the make-up used to transform actors into living, breathing, speaking apesa miracle of movie-studio technology.

So to get some idea of what its like, imagine youve been cast in a guest role for an episode of Planet of the Apes, the new series based on the hit motion pictures, broadcast Fridays (8:00-9:00) on Channel 3N-9-11.

If youre to start work at 8:00 a.m., youll have to report to the studio at 5:00 a.m., since it takes a minimum of three hours to be made up. If you suffer from claustrophobia, dont apply for the job. Indeed, some professional actors cant take it.

Youll have your own make-up man. Each ape with a speaking role requires a make-up artist who is responsible for the initial application and subsequent touch-ups through the day.

Life masks have been made of dental stone, then sculptured in clay to reproduce the features of a gorilla, chimpanzee or orangutan, depending on the character being played.

A sp^ial formula of foam rubber is pumped into the cast and cooked for six yours. It emerges as a flexible T-shaped appliance, the top part reproducing the forehead, eye sockets ancinose, the bottom half the mouth, lips and jaw. These are air-brushed with a special coloring that will stretch with the rubber. Eye apertures are cleared and a breathing channel cut from the nose to the roof of the mouth. Teeth, made of harder rubber, are glued to the mouth opening. Ears are applied separately.

Once in the make-up chair, youll have special anatomical glue brushed on your face. The appliance is then fitted into place and attached. Brown make-up is applied so your skin will match the feather-thin edges of the ape face. Your teeth and lips will be darkened.

Special care is taken to fit and glue around the eyes and mouth, areas requiring the greatest flexibility and endurance. Each step takes from 15 to 20 minutes to ory. . .there are no shortcuts.

Once the face is attached, hairdressers apply individual hairs to your forehead and temples to blend into your ape wig. Hair attached to fine lace is gli^ to the backs of ypur hands, and each finger gets its individual quota of hair.

TTie make-up in place, youll need practice, at first looking into a mirror to see where the mouth opening is. Liquids are easier to handle than solids. You dont dare sneeze, and to insure this, you take nasal-drying compounds.

John Chancellor is host and narrat(^ for the Go show Saturday, October 12, in color on the NBC Television Network from 12:30 to 1:00 p.m., on Channel 6-7, explaining how a GO show is made. Mr. Chancellor is regular anchorman of NBC Nightly News.

While the tape cameras of the GO show were making a {Togram with racing driver Sam Posey at the mid-Ohio Grand Prix last Summer, a second team of cameramen and a production crew headed by Producer-Director J. Phillip Miller taped the making of that program.

Also using clips from many of the seasons other GO shows, Mr. Chancellor explains in words and illustrates with pictures how the final scenes were brought to the TV screen. The planning of the shows under executive producer George A. Heinemann is the start, and through the planning to the photographing, we see director Red Lewis and Cameraman A1 Camoin getting the Grand Prix on tape.

Clips from other GO programs included are from the shows on these subjects: white water canoeing, visit to Coney Island, under-water photography, karate class, visit toa rodeo, hot air ballooning and a visit to the San Diego Zoo.

This program was written by Rift Fournier.

The quality has always come through.

Traditional Army-Navy Game Loses TV Appeal

So low have the football fortunes of West Point and Anapolis fallen that for the first time since 1947, the Army-Navy game may not be seen on , television.

ABC-TV, which has carried the games for the last eight years, has not put the Nov. 30 game on its schedule, however, there is a possibility that it may bnecome the first part of a doubleheader on that day, as lead-in to the Notre Dame-USC game. Reason for dropping the game, is that ratings suffered badly during the second half of Navys runawayOpening Nov. 12

The Hallmark HaU of Fame will open its 24th consecutive TV season with the new production of Brief Encounter, starring Sophia Loren and Richard Burton, on the NBC Television Network Tuesday evening, Nov 12.

For its second special of the 1OT4-75 season, the award-winning series will present The Gathering Storm, starring Burton as Winston Churchill on Friday, Nov. 29.

Dates for other Hallmark Hall of Fame specials will be announced.

Brief Encounter, based on the play by Noel Coward, tells the bittersweet love story of two people, each married, who meet by chance and fall in love, knowing that their love is doomed. It was filmed in London and on location in Winchester and other locales in England.

The Gathering Storm will be a dramatization of the first volume of Sir Winston Churchills World War II memoris. Filming is underway at Chartwell, the Churchill estate in England.

win last year.

If the game isnt carried, the academies will be hurt in the pocketbook and even further in their recruiting of students. According to Navy athletic director, J. 0. Coppedge, also a member of the NCAA-TV committee, most of the money to support the schools 21-sports program comes from its slice of the 'TV pie. Also, he said, the TV coverage is the only national source we have of advertising our academy... it would be a severe blow to our entire program if it werent on.

Just how important it is for Navy to beat Army, or vice versa, varies, depending on who you speak to and when you speak to him. There is no doubt, though, that the Army-Navy game carries more emotional punch than any other series going.

What has to be underst^ to appreciate the Army-Navy game is that its not just an athletic contest, it is akin to an emotional experience.

For most of the out-of-shape husbands sitting in front of the tube, there will be a team playing with which he can identify. All those former soldiers and sailors, whose military stories grow sweeter with each year, were once a part of |he institution that will be part of the show.

average man cares little for the outcome. To him, Nebraska is someplace where wheat grows and Oklahoma is a state named after a musical.

But Army and Navy, thats different. Most of the adult population was at one time either a soldier or a sailor and now they have a piece of the action and can be part of whats happening.

In fact, that is exactly what the Army-Navy game is a happening. Perhaps the reasons cannot be put down in black and white, but the Army-Navy game is the presidential opener, osear night and the Miss America pageant.

It is simply, something superspecial. And to keep this superspecial happening continuing to happen, write to ABC Sports Department, 1330 Avenue of the Americas, New York, N. Y. 10019

Bengal Receiver Second To None

Issac Curtis is second to none as a wide receiver and has the potential to become a superstar. That appraisal comes from no less an authority than Paul Brown, who enters his 40th year of coaching this season.

The Bengals expect Curtis to help them win a lot of football games this season. Last year was his rookie season and he missed some of the early workouts with a pulled muscle. Despite these handicaps, his contributions were

si^ificant and a harbinger of things to come.

When Curtis got going, he made the NFLs all-rocikie team and caught nine touchdown passes, to rank fourth behind Harold Jackson of Los Angeles, Paul Warfield of Miami, and Ron Shanklin of Pittsburgh. . . . pretty exclusive company for a rookie.

Curtis has that super combination of sure hands and swift feet. He catches touchdown passes one-handed while makir^ an acrobatic leap. Once the ball is in his grip, he ignites his afterburners and his 9.3 speed usually lands him in the end zone.

Starting his second season as a professional, Curtis played a big role in the Bengals opening game victory. The sprinter with the glue-fingers caught five passes for 117 yards and a touchdown. In addition, he set up a touchdown that came moments before the end of the first half with a sensational catch of a 49-yard pass from Ken Anderson at the goal line.

Curtis, soft-spoken and a complete team player, was happy with his performance because it helped the whole team have a good day. The play right before the half got us going; it put us on the board, sort of broke the ice for us.

Curtis, who was instrumental in the Bengals late season drive for the AFC Central Division Championship, has what you might call quiet confidence.

I cant help it, this is just the way I am.

NAMATH EXCELS Joe WllUe Namath, pro footballs most outstanding quarterback, has gained more passing yards in a shorter time than anyone in pro football annals with the exception of

John Unitas despite his missing It games over two seasons. The Jets will meet the Miami Dolphins, Monday NighL October 7, at 9 p.m. on Channel 3-5-12.

Namath Is Professional

Joe Namath is a man surrounded by adjectives, often referred to as coImuI, anti -establishment, flamboyant, cool, humorous, dashing, sexy and^ independent for openers. Yet, he' is a professional quarterback who does his job as well as, if not better than, any man has ever at that position. He is, without a doubt, the best quarterback in the game today.

As a man doing his job and doing it well, Namath is unbelievable in his ability to set - up quickly and release amazin^y accurate passes. When throwing a football, Namath makes the impossible seem routine. If he has a flaw, it is in his belief that he can complete any pass he throws, and he will throw passes that other quarterbacks would never attempt. Some o( these may fall incomplete, some may land in enemy hands; but, it is his ability to complete most of them that makes Joe Namath a super-star.

On the field, Joe has the ability to radiate an air of confidence and control that ^elds him exceptional leadership qualities. He also possesses the talent to read defenses and react under pressure with a mastery that sets him apart from the vast majority of pr()fessional quarterbacks.

Top Actress Still Hard To Recognize

Joanna Miles, an Emmy-winning actress, has appeared in daytime serials, ^est starred in a dozen primetime television seri, co-starred in a major motion picture, and appeared in 12 plays in New York, both on and off Broadway. Yet she could stand on her head at Hollywood and Vine Streets and the tourists would probably only take notice of her as another Hollywood Oddball.

The trouble or advantage, as she considers it with being her type of actress is that Miss Miles so completely dominates a role with her characterization that audiences dont see the actress.

Miss Miles likes to bring a new character to life with each of her roles. This attribute, phis her lack of reluctance to play plain characters, may be another key to her anonymity.

Actresses shouldnt be afraid to play plain, she notes. Authors keep writing roles that require that approach, and I, for one, am always happy to play them. They really present more of an acting challenge, since audiences dont react as quicklv

to a seemingly colorless character. Therefore, you must work harder to bring the character alive.

I was f(tunate enough to be cast as the daughter, Laura, in the television special of Tennessee Williams The Glass Menagerie, Miss Miles cwi-tinues. Its a plum part thats been interpreted many different ways by many fine actresses, some yielding to the temptation to dress it up. Laura is written as a plain, troubled girl, and I played her that way, trying to bring out the depth of her character through her innocence and vulnerability.

Evidentally, Miss Miles did it right, because last May she received an Emmy for her performance. But, even as supporting actress of the year, she is still virtually unrecognized, as was indicated during filming of Aloha Means Goodbye on location in Hawaii.

Id like to do a television series, Miss Miles says, but I would still like to be able to do my marketing without being recognized.

KEWPIE COLLEC-nON Gavin MacLeod, who stars as Murray Slaughter on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, proudly displays part of his Kewpie Collection. An avid collector of the little Cherub, his

hobby has brought him in contact with many interesting people. The Mary Tyler Moore Show now in its fifth year, is telecast, Saturdays (9-9:30 p.m.) on Channel 9-11.

Gavin A DolhCollector

Gavin MacLeod, who plays the sad-faced newswriter (Murray Slaughter) on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, has a hobby thats almost unheard of. He is an avid collector of kewpie dolls. It all began about a year ago when he attended an antique show. Wandering aimlessly through the exhibits, he was brought to a virtual stand-still when his eyes beheld a collection of kewpie dolls. I had no intention of becoming a collector, he explains, but quickly found himself purchasing kewpies in all of their many forms.

The co-star of the highly - rated CBS-TV show says that he has discovered a sort of underground of kewpie collectors throughout the country whove now begun corresponding with him.

After his initial purchase. Mac Leod began to research the history of the little cherubic character and learned of its creation by a turn - of - the -century artist named Rose ONeill, who also happened to be the inspiration for the song Rose of Washin^on Square.

MacLeod was bom in Mount Kisco, N.Y., and, in recognition of his acting talent during his high school years, he wasJoe Explores Difference In Top Ballplayers

awarded a scholarship in drama at Ithaca College, Ithaca, N.Y., where he appeared in many stage and radio productions.

After military service in the Air Force, where his assignments included the writing, producing and directing of plays for the Special Services division, MacLeod worked for a time in New York City as an usher at the Radio City Music Hall. During this interim, he made the rounds

of agents and casting offices, landed parts in four off-Broadway plays, studied with Frank Corsaro, and eventually played seven months in the Broadway play, A Hatful of Rain.

He has appeared in 18 movies and in more than 250 television shows, including multiple appearances in Hawaii Five-0 and two seasons as a regular in McHales Navy.

Wnt to aak a fwnoua person quMtion? Smxl the queetion ee a peeiearti, to Aek." Family Weekly, 641 Lexington Awe., New York, N^ Y. 10022. We'll pay SS tor published questions. Sorry, wo can't answer others.

FOR BARBARA WALTERS Which has been your most memorable interview^ and which has had the most lasting effect on your personal life?Lillian Sheps, Reno, Nev.

It was one of the first I did when I began on the Today program. I intCTviewed deaf-blind poet Robert Smithdas,

who teaches those with similar handicaps at a training center and home in Brooklyn. Hes the first deaf-blind person to have earned a masters degree. We communicate by his putting his thumb on my ups. No celebrity, politician or leader I have ever interviewed moved me as much as that meeting with Robert Smithdas. More than his courage, I was imprest with his humor.

FOR MICHAEL DOUGLAS, star of The Streets of San Francisco

When were you first aware you were the son of a celebrity? Betty C,, lngsport, Tenn.

.\t six. We were visiting my father, who was making a film in Paris. There were other children on the plane, but when we got off, all the photographers made a mad rush toward me. They asked my dad to lift me up and kiss me, which he did. I remember being blinded by all those flashbulbs and asking my dad what the fimny lights were.

FOR MARY BACON, jockey

Fm 12. Please tell me what training 1 need to become a lady jockey like you.Cindy Love, Elmendmrf, Texas First, learn to ride at your local stable. When youre 16, go to the track and get a job walking or grooming horses. Your trainer will teach you to gallop horses. By this time youll know if you want to make riding your career (it takes from one to three years). Its funtill you break that first bone. And remember: Even though youre a man on the horse, be a lady when you're on your own two feet.

FOR ANN LANDERS

Ive heard that you and your twin sister, who does the Dear Abby column, havent spoken for years. If you do talk, do you ask each other for help on reader problems?Mrs. JJB., Buffalo, N.Y.

My twin sister Abigail Van Buren and I have a very good relationship, in spite of constant rumors to the contrary by people who love controversy. We do not counsel one another, however, and keep our work out of our social and family lives.

FOR CLAUDE AKINS, star of Movin On

Is it harder to play a bad guy than a good guy?-Dan Trent, Utica, N.Y.

No, its almost impossible to sneer badly. But try smihng for a photograph and youll get an idea how hard it is to act

the good guy!

FOR BILL HUDSON of the Hudson Brothers

Is Hudson your real name, or were you inspired by Rock

Hudson?R. Jeffries, Mansfield, CMiio

Hudson is our real name. We werent inspired by Rock, and only met him once, on the MGM lot, where we were introduced by my uncle Keenan Wyrm. The one who did inspire us was EKis Presley (I was six, and my brothers were four and two, when we saw him at a concert).

Why dont you and Aiuie Meara have your own TV show? Lariy Freund, Los Angeles, Calif.

Just give us the chance, and well break the speed record as we nm to accept! Unfortimately, we have not yet had an offer that we could not refuse. Weve made several pilots together, but they never made it to the series stage. Our dream is to do a variety talk show, and if that ever happens, Anne has given me her solemn promise that shell let me get one word in at some point during each show.

Absolutely. I was married right before my 14th birthday to .Mooney Lynn. Mooney is five years older than I am and was fresh out of the sendee when we met. He worked on farms and was a garage mechanic. He started me on my career by persuading the manager of a local club to hire me. Mooneys a better manager than he was a mechanic.

Frank Costello was said to have accumulated during his lifetime?Frances Scott, San Francisco, Calif.

The IRS would like to know the answer to that too!

The late Mafia boss had a passion for collecting gold watches and gold cuff linkshe had thousands of them.

MBrtMorWBgSEr

By Amy VaiiderbUt

Especially for Family WeeklyAmy on the Li^hi^ SSfle Bein Cmnniissloner of Etiquette

Recently, 1 received a letter a reader whose let-terhead announced him as Lucifer D. Satan. It read as follows:

Dear Miss Vanderbilt,

In the event that I will he taking a long trip to Heaven over the holidays, I will he faced with a problem. How do I address the King, saints and all of the other Heavenly heings? I do attain a different set of manners in my humble abode and am not familiar with the situation of life in Heaven. Could you please send me some helpful hints on how to act in the presence of the Heavenites?

Fashion is another problem. In light of the fact that you have much knowledge of current fashions, what is the latest fad in Heaven? I know that 1 will have to huy a whole new wardrobe, but I dont know what to huy. Please send me some information on fashions too. Thank you for your time and help.

His name was signed with red ink.

I dont know whether Mr. Satan is a put-on artist or simply some strange variety of kook. But the point is, etiquette, like the prune, can he funny. And, in the course of my career as an etiquette authority, I have been on the receiving end of a fair number of funny (either intentionally or unintentionally) stories.

A very funny question from a reader was once quoted in Family Weekly. It read as follows:

How do I address the King, saints and all of the other Heavenly beings?

Dear Miss Vanderbilt;

Im an unmarried mother, but thats not my problem. I dont know about correct table setting. Can you help me? A.B.

One is not bom with a sense of etiquette, of course, and some of the most embarrassing gaffs are made by childrenincluding (ru admit it!) my own.

Once I was traveling with my children in Denmark. We were invited to a tea given by a charming woman who had once been the premiere danseuse of the Danish Royal Ballet A royal princess was to be at the tea. I explained to my children that they were to be on their best behavior and that one does not direct questions to royalty except in the third personfor example, Would Your Royal Highness like to have a cookie? My middle son practiced this awkward circumlocution all afternoon. When we got to the tea, he looked around for the royal princess, but was told that the princess couldnt be there because of an accident My young son was then presented to a baroness. His disappoint

ment showed in his face. You mean youre just a baronessT' , he blurted.

1 do get some strange mail from abroad. This amusing letter came from England in response to a question of mine as to why people feel they must say, Please excuse me; I want to wash my hands, instead of expressing their more basic need quite frankly.

Dear Miss Vanderbilt:

1 want to tell you about an instance of false modesty that almost caused a respectable middle-aged married man to be picked up by the police. The man I refer to was visiting my apartment. When he arrived, he said something about hb car, held up his hands with a few grease marks on them, and asked where he could wash them. I directed him to the kitchen. He seemed a little surprised, but I thought nothing of it.

Soon afterward, we were shocked by the arrival of the police. A neighbor had called and rc(x>rted seeing a man in the dark just inside the iron

gate that leads to the back of the building. The neighbor didnt know if the man was a prowler, a Peeping Tom or an exhibitionistbut he certainly was not acting properly! It took us a while to put two and two together but when we did, we all had a good laugh (all, that is, except the disgruntled policemen).

Of course there are letters that come to me that I cant answer, even with the help of a big law firm, a friendly psychiatrist who helps me or other experts. Here is one:

1 have a friend whose sister goes by her first husbands name. She divorced him and was married twice afterward and then lived with a man for many years before he died. Now she goes to Florida with another man and goes by his name in Florida. Otherwise, she signs everything with her first husbands name. Is this legal? What name should she go by? It is hard to know how to introduce her. Also, she has taken another first name because she doesnt like her own. It is a mess. Her sister thinks it is wonderful that she is having such a- good time. I think it is terrible. Also, this person Im writing about drinks and smokes. Some letters from mothers are very delicate.

My daughter is now 12 years old and started maturing quite early. 1 started her shaving her legs and under her arms when she was about nine. I bought her an electric shaver to take care of herself

but sometimes she neglects to do so vtrfuntarily. Sometimes my husband tells her to go shave. Do you think it is proper for the father to tell a girl to go shave?

And here is one that really doesnt stump me, because 1 dont believe in old maids.

We are arguing over the age of an old maid. We say the age for an old maid is 25. They say 30. Please answer as it is important.

Or how about this one?

Dear Miss Vanderbilt,

When we purchased our home, the real estate agent showed us an area that he referred to as the butlers pantry. We are thinking of acquiring a butler and wonder how to install him in this pantry.

And a mother gets her syntax a little confused in this one:

My daughter is being married. As I paid much more than 1 fed like I can afford to buy the most beautiful gown, I would like for everyone to have the privilege to see it walk down the aisle. Please advise.

Perhaps the classic futmy question that I received is this: My husband and 1 are always arguing about which side be should walk on when we are out To settle the argument, please tell me the proper method of street walking.

And I cant end without this rather strange letter from a New Jersey man:

Dear Miss Vanderbilt,

Please inform me on )^r public affairs. wmm

Very truly yours, etc. UU

The Charisma Sweepstakes;

Streisand & MeQueen

Tqrior

This it how the movie makers themselves rank the superstars for their on-screen magnetism, together with an analysis of each stars magnetism by a leading film critic.

BffaraproictoiwnTl xubaranc* and wamidi.

Slava llcQuaan a mtartura of i and chana.

In the golden days of film making there was no doubt who the superstars were. Garbo, GaUe, Taylor, Harlow, Davis, Crawfordthose were the names that sent millions of fans streaming into theaters everywhere.

And today? Who among contemporary actresses and actors has the dynamic superstar charisma akin to the star qualities of the earlier moviemaking days? Times have changed. So have tastes.

The public has its favorites; the critics, theirs. Family Weekly asked the experts, the men who make movies, what they think. We polled a representative cross section of leading directors and producers for their knowledgeable choices, and their decisions came back loud and clear.

Barbra Streisand tops them all. Steve McQueen is a close second. But dont despair if you have other favor-^ ites. Some of them may be high on the list too.

Here b how the race for the top ten places in the supentar constellation finished. Our scoring system made allowances for ties, so that there are actually 12 stars in positions five through ten.

1. Barbra StrWsand

2. Steva McQuaan

3. Robart Radford

4. Marlon Brando

5. Paul Nawman, Al Pacino, Gaorga C. Scott

6. EHzabath Taylor, Dustin Hoffman

7. Uza Minnalli, Woody Allan

8. Glanda Jackson, Jana Fonda

9. Uv Ullmarm, Diana Ross 10. Cybill Shaphard

Others wbo won s lot of voting support from the film makers were Clint Eastwood, Ctiarlas Bronson, Burt RaynoMs, Ryan ONaal, Sidney PoKiar and Kkfc Douglas.

Precisely what do the performers who are judged to be top superstars have that appeals to the professionals who back their judgments despite all the risks inherent in filn^ making? What does the public see in them?

As a critic, I have been watching these performers in action, and each offers very special qualities.

BARBRA STREISAND-Hardly a beauty by conventional standards, Barbra projects such inner fire, exuberance and warmth that she grows beautiful because of her overall glow. Her singing talent is enormous, and when she acts, she becomes larger than life and establishes an intinuury. Audiences identify with her.

STEVE McQUEEN-A mixture of toughness and charm is Steves stock in trade. He is handsome, alternately hard and easygoing, and brings truth

fulness to a perfoimance. He can also act in unusual parts, as he demonstrated playing the demanding role of the tortured convict in PapUlon.

ROBERT BEDFORD - He has plain old-fashioned sex appeal,** and charm just oozes from him, whether hes playing a con man, politician or lover. Hes handsome, strong looking, knows how to deliver his lines and is aggravatingly photogenic. To top it off, hes a thorough acting pro.

MARLON BRANDO - Brando brings so much legend to each rt^ that he has the world going for him before his face even comes on a screen. Hes a solid actor who cut his teeth in the theater, a bit of a ham and a performer who can convey layers of sensitivity on screen, whether heavily made up and talking with an accent in The Godfather, or impassioned and erotic in The Last Tango in Paris. Brando is an original, and imitators cant begin to touch his talent

PAUL NEWMAN-Paul projects a personal manner that makes audiences feel as if they know him. Hes handsome, a skillful actor as well as an accomplished director, and be keeps in great shape so that one can barely notice any aging. Like McQueen, he is a master at projecting

both virility and boyish charm.

AL PACINO-The new leed of film actor is eiMtomized by AL There is a wild, unfettered aura about him. He is restless and electric, and he can play the kiixl of fiashy parts, like Serpico, being written for the screen today. His face is extraordinarily sensitive and expressive.

GEORGE C. 8C0TT-In a word, he has authority. Hie moment ymi see Scott on the screen, you feel you are in firm hands. If he is General Patton, you know hes in command. If hes fiTuqmg dtrifrfiins, you know hell have therk^ obeying. When hes with a woman, yoit know hell exert a power over her. He doesnt act the part. He the part Scott has the acting skills to know exactly what he is doing in creating such authority.

EUZABETH TAYLOR-The clock doesnt stand stiU, but Elizabeth remains beautiful. She has matured well, and is still superbly photogenic. She gives the public the glamour that many crave. No matter how corny the picture may be, or no matter what the quality of her particular performance, she always brings charisma to a film.

DUSTIN HOFFMAN-Dustin is a brilliant actor adio can handle more varied roles than the public has seen him do on ^reen. He strikes a sym-

TIm Experto Who CompiMd This List

Those who voted run the gamut from veteran directors and producers to newcomers. Ballots were cast by the following:

Woody Allen; David Brown; Francis Ford Coppola; Ossie Davis; Carl Foreman; Mike Frankovich; Robert Fryer; George Roy Hill; John Huston; Lamont Johnson; Sidney Lumet; Martin Ritt; Al Ruddy; Franklin Schaffner; Donald Siegel; Steven Spielberg; Joseph Strick; Robert Wise; Frank Yablans; Richard Zanuck.

Most members of our ail-etar cast of producers and directors wanted a secret ballot, and some who were asked thought it safer not to vote at all. It would only get me in trouble, said one leading film maker. Those who make movies are In the position of negotiating with performers. If they build up egos, they also build up salary and percentage demands. If they leave someone out of the top ten, they may make an enemy and earn refusal the next time they dangle an offer.

FAMILY WEEKLY, Octotwr 6, 1974

By WilliaM Wolf

Head the List

pathetic note for audiences. If he is in trouble, they want to console him. If he is after something, they want him to achieve it His performance as evidenced in The Graduate expressed the tone and attitude of a generation, and he is still going on the steam of that triumph.

LIZA MMNELU-Tbe legend of Judy Garland is imidicit in Liza, and the public feels this. But that alone would hardly be enou^. She has made stardom on ho* own, through hard work, talent and by proving that she can sing and dance up a storm and knock them in the aisles. She also projects a vulnerability reminiscent of her nmther. In an age when real musical-comedy stars are scarce, Liza livens up show business. She also has a yearning to act, and while she is less successful in drama than as an entertainer, her sincerity makes for truth in her characterizations.

WOODY ALLBI-Nobody eb? has Woodys ability to send out brain waves to his admirers. Woody conjures up something funny, and those who dig him are ready to laugh before theyve seen what hes up to. He abo b the eternal underdog conspired agaiiMrf by life, and be spins enjoyment by coming through it all, as was the case with sudi artists as Chaplin, Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd. Woodys genius lies in intellectual comedy, mixed with contemporary slapstick, and he b original enough to have won an enormous following despite the special quality of his material.

GLENDA JACKSON-She b one of the finest actresses working today. She can pby a wide assortment of parts, whether highly emotional and tragic, or li^tly comic as in A Touch of Class. In person she b on the plain side and unassuming. On screen she can be anyone. Solid acting experi

ence gives her the background that many stars lack.

JANE FONDA-The daughter of a famous father, Jane worked her way up to stardom by her own talent. She can be beautiful, exotic, tough, pathetic and funny. Her instincts for doing the unusual in a performance are uncanny, and she symbolizes for numy the need to be involved with life. Thats partly the result of her offscreen political activities, which turn some people on, others off.

UV ULLMANN-Not many foreign actresses get to be considered superstars in America, liv b one of the few, and she has achieved that position as a result of one fantastic performance after another in the films of Ingmar Bergman. Thus far she hasnt been able to triumph in English-speaking roles, which havent suited her. But her performances in Swedish have been such as to gain her recognition by her peers. SBie brilliantly conveys hairiness, agony, wtMry, frenzy virtually any emotion. She b abo beautiful in a wholesome way that carries its own brand of sex appeal.

DIANA ROSS-Many thought she couldnt act. Already a singing super-star, she played the late Billie Holiday with such fervor and feeling that she was acclaimed an instant film star. Diana brings intelligence to her acting, and she b a beautiful woman who photographs especially well.

CYBILL SHEPHERD-A successful fashion model, Cybills vbual qualities are her chief assets. Shes a am-temporary creature, made by publicity, good looks and effective guidance by her mentor, director Peter Bogdanovich. Her glossy look appeals to some audiences and seems too manufactured to others. Cybill achieved stardom quickly, largely through The Last Picture Show nm

and The Heartbreak Kid. lll

BEST OVERALL

Right-hander Luis TianI of the Boston Red Sox was voted tops in the American League in a dose race with Nofan Ryan of the California Angels. Righthander Andy MsiaowniHh of the Los Angeles Dodgers was an overwhelming choice for best in the National League.

Ironically, both Tiant and Messersmith came to their present clubs labeled questionable. After winning 21 games and posting a league-leading 1.60 earned-run average for Cleveland in 1968, Tiant faded to the minor leagues by 1971. He eventually recaptuitd his effectiveness and was brought back to the majors by the Red Sox, whose mainstay he has been for the past three years. Now 34 years old, the 5-11, 190-pound native of Havana, Cuba, is a master of deception. On the mound he rarely even looks at a' batter, but gazes skyward, all around him, to either side everywhere but straight ahead. Then, from behind a high leg kick and one or two head feints, he delivers a bewildering assortment of pitches.

Last August 23, Tiantson of another Luis Tiant who was a top pitcher in the Negro National League a quarter-cratury agobecame the first pitcher to reach the 20-victory mark in the majors this year. Number 20 was a sparkling six-hiL 3-0 shutout over the defending worid-champion Oakland As. Tiant also woo 20 for Boston in 1973.

A 6-1, 200-pound, 29-ycar-old from Toms River, N. J., John Alexander (Andy) Messersmith came to the Dodgers from the California Angels in a pre-1973 season trade. Andy won 20 games for the Angels in 1971, but the former pitching

star at the University of California never fulfilled all the promise that was expected of him in the American League.

With the Dodgers, however, Messersmith struck out the first six Philadelphia batters he faced in one of his first 1973 appearances and has gone on from

there. Combining a powerful fast ball and a change-up that is regarded as the best by far in the senior circuiL Andy has recorded low eamed-run averages and low hit yields in each of the last two seasons. He was the National Leagues starting pitcher in the 1974 All-Star Game.

BEST FAST BALL

No one today throws a ball as hard as Noten Ryan, the California Angels 27-ycar-old flame-throwing right-hander, and periiaps no one ever did. All the American League batters on our panel conceded that Ryan threw the fastest pitches they faced all year. In 1974 Ryan became the first major-league {Htcher to strike out more than 300 batters for three strai^t seasons. He fanned an American League record 19 Red Sox batters in one nine-inning game in August and followed that with a 19-strikeout performance in an 11-inning gam against Detroitwhich he lost, 1-0.

Despite a below-par 1974 season, Tom Seavor, a two-time Cy Young Award winner as the top pitcher in the National League, still drew the nod from the majority of our NL hitting panelists as the hardest thrower in the league. Seaver, 30, an eight-year veteran with the New York Mets, throws a rising fast ball that, in the words of Miko SctanidL the slugging third baseman of the Phillies, comes at you belt high and wiiKb up at your letters with plenty of smoke on it.

BEST CURVE BALL

Bort Btyteaon of the Minnesota Twins was a virtually unanimous choice among our panelists as the leagues top curve-baller. Rod Cmrmm, who has won four AL batting championships, says his Dutch-born teammate has the best breaking ball in the league. Its common knowledge. Carew says that Gaylord Perry of Cleveland throws the best curve ball among the of^xments be faces. But Blyleven, who won 20 games for Minnesota in 1973, was the choice of the rest of our panel. Jeff Burroughe, the strai^ng young outfield star of the Texas Rangers, says Bly-levens curve is hard and fast, with a quick break about three-quarters of the way down toward the plate.

best in the National League. This year, Messersmith has drawn most of the raves, but Dodger l^n Sutton has not been overlooked. According to our seven-man NL panel, the handsome nine-year NL veteran throws the best curve ball in the league.

Others whose curve balls were rated highly in the NL were Lynn McGlothen of the St. Louis Cardinals, Jerry Reuse of Pittsburgh and Jack Billingham of Cincinnati. But Suttons curve was the consensus choice. Richie Zisk of the Pirates says of the Dodger right-handers breaking delivery: You can practically hear it speaking to you. It's a quick one, and it bites.BEST CHANGE OF PACE

AadyMeMrenrifh throws a :hange of pace that is the icourge of the NL. It is his best Titch, according to the batters vbo face him. His fast ball is tery good too, says Ralph 3arr, Atlantas 1974 NL bating champion. But he sets up lis change-up with his fast ball, lie gets this change over all the ime, and he throws it with exactly the same motion as he loes his fast one. Messersmiths . :hange is pretty fast, too-about hree-quarters as fast as his reg-jlar fast ball.

In the American League, Sayford Perry, Luis Tiant and lohn Hiller, the classy left-landed relief specialist for the Detroit Tigers, were praised for heir change-ups. But overall, he nod went to Mike Cuellar, he Baltimore Oriole southpaw, or his deceptive change curve.

It goes up before it finally >reaks down over the plate, ays New York Yankee out-ieider Bobby Murcar, and 'uellar throws it with different peeds and different breaks. All f them are tough to hit.lEST MOVE TO RRST

left-handers.

Rod Carew cites Steve Busby, the young right-hander of the Kansas City Royals, who has pitched two no-hit games in his two-year major-league career, for his move to first. Busby is the only righty mentioned in this category by our AL panel.

One of the big stories this past season was Lou Brocks chase of the single-season record for stolen bases. This makes Brock a man to be listened to on the subject of pick-off artists. Brock mentions Don Qullstt of Cincinnati, Jim Barr of San Francisco and Wayne Twitch-

all of Philadelphia among those who tend to inhibit his all-out stealing style.

Overall, though, our NL panel selected the Phillies 23-year-old right-hander, Dick Ruthven, as their leagues most effective pitcher at holding men on base.

Our panel of top batters rated these four pitchers best in two additional categories:

American League Best move to first Bill Lee, Boston Red Sox left-hander Best fielder Jim KaaL Chicago White Sox left-handerNational League

Best move to first Dick Ruthven, Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Bestfleider Mike Marshall, Los Angeles DodgersBEST FELDER

Over the years, veteran Jim Kaal in the American League has dominated the fielding statistics. Kaat, a 36-year-old lefthander who spent nearly 15 seasons with Minnesota and was dealt to the Chicago White Sox late in the 73 campaign, draws the praise of our AL panelists. When he pitches, his team has an extra infielder in the lineup, says Baltimores Brooks Robinson, himself a master of defense. Kaat is excellent at getting off the mound to field bunts, covers first very well, and never seems to make a defensive mistake.

According to our experts, the best fielding pitcher in the NL is Mike Marshall of Los Angeles, who established new standards this season for appearances by a relief pitcher. A scholarly doctoral candidate at Michigan State, the mustachioed Marshall throws one of the most bafiBing screwballs in the game, which results in opposing batters rapping a lot of grounders to him or to members of the Dodger infield. Hes a terrific fielder, says Mike Schmidt. Thats just another way he has of beating you. He can start the pitcher-to-second-to-first double play as well as anybody, and hes quick off the mound to cover first. His pitching is tough enough, but he really works on his fielding.

BEST RIGHT-HANDER

Luis TIant of Bostcm edged Nolan Ryan in

the American League balloting, as he did in the ^best overall pitcher category. Btyhwran of Minnesota was the only other AL righthander mentioned, thou^ Baltimore's Palmar, who sat out much of 1974 with an ailing arm, drew praise for his past efforts, including four consecutive 2Q-victory seasons, 1970-73.

Los Angeles Meaaorsmith, also cited as the NLs best overall, was the choice as best righthander in that circuit. Messersmith's two Dodger teanunates on our panel, first baseman Slava Qarvay and center fielder Jim Wyrai, tabbed Tom Saavor of the Mets and Lynn McQlolhen of the Cardinals as the toughest righties the Dodgers faced this year.

BEST LEFT-HANDER

In the closest contest in any category, Vida Bkm of the Oakland As was named the AL's best left-hander over Bill Lae of Boston and Blues Oakland teammate, Kan HoHzman.

Though he hasnt dui^ated his sensational 24-8 season as a 22-year-old in 1971, Blue at 25 has become a more mature moundsman, our American League panelists point out. He may not be as fast as he was a couple of years ago, saywStobby Grich, the Orioles second baseman, but he still throws very hard, and he mixes up his pitches better than he did in the past

Stove Carlton of the Philadelf^ia Phillies was rated the top NL southpaw. He throws very hard and has an excellent curve and slider too, says Pittsburghs Richie Zisk. a top hitter

Here are the great hitters, seven from each league, who took part in Family Weeklys search for baseball's best pitchers of 1974:

to all fields. He sets up right-handed hitters like me with his slider. The last seven or eight feet down to the i^ate it moves a few inches in on your fists and makes it very tou^ to handle.

Other senior-circuit southpaws who drew special praise were Jon Mattock of the New

York Mets, Don Gultott of the Cindimati Reds and Jorry Rauss of the Pittsburg Pirates. I dont think Matlack is as good yet as hes going to be, says Steve Garvey of the Mets 24-year-old lefty. He has the ability to work in ti^t to the hitters. He needs to improve his confidence. Continued

Why you should buy a chain saw from

a company that cub it

with lumberjacks.

Homelite is the largest maker of professional chain saws in America. ,

Which is a great reason to buy their new homeowners saw.

Because it just makes sense that the company that can sati^ the demands of the professional logger can m^e a saw to meet the needs of the average homeowner.

And a perfect example of that is the new Homelite XL which sells for under SIOO.

The XL has a tough, lightweight engine which allows you to feel like a lumbeij2k without requiring that you be built like one. It also features an all-weather ignition system ^^ch

makes for fast starts. And automatic chain oiling. For S99.95, the new XL is really a g^t chain saw.

But then again, so is the Homelite XL Z which sells for SI 19.95. The big thing about the XL 2 is that it has two triers.

A trigger up front which lets you get right up on top of your work, where you need control.

And a second trigger in the rear to give you leverage for the big jobs.

The XL 2 also tips the scales at a light 7 A pounds.* It comes with a 12* guide bar. And ^ samePower Tip* sprocket nose that professional loggers use to boost their cutting power.

And right now, to really make a case for buying the XL Z we thrOw in a case, free. This carrycase regularly sells for S10.95 and can accommodate the chain saw plus all its accessories.

Of course, another benefit in buying a Homelite chain saw is that we have more dealers to serve you if something should go

wrong. More than 7,500 of t^m in the U.S. Ho

fomelites XL and XL Z Considering everything they come with, its hard to lieve what th

believe what they go for.

Sure, Ive heard it all. Id light up at a cocktail party. And somebody would remind me of what theyve read about smoking in the papers.

Well, 1 read the papers, too.

Ive heard all that stuff they say about high tar and nicotine. And Id be less than honest if 1 said it didnt make me concerned.

So I went the whole route. Tried one of those low tar cigarettes, and got as much flavor out of it as a toothpick.

But I kept trying. Guess I enjoycxl smoking too much.

Thats when 1 ran across'Vantage. And what do you know. It tasted like a cigarette.

Now Vantage wasnt the lowest intarand nicotine. It

didnt claim to be. Just the lowest tar and _ _

nicotine cigarette that still gave me the full n/aimxage

tobacco taste Id missed.

Maybe its the Vantage filter. Frankly I dont know, and 1 dont care.

I just know I can cut down on tarand nicotine. Without cutting out the flavor.

Now I dont have to make any excuses for smoking.

Reggie Jackson on LxiisTiant:

Hes the best right now. When he gets into a groove, hes tough to beat. But Jim Palmer of Baltimore, who missed a lot of the 1974 season, is as good as anybody when hes right. He has a great fast ball, great off-speed pitches and control.

A1 Krikie on Bert Blyleven:

Blylevens curve is real hard and sharp. He has good control with it, but the major feature of his curve is that he throws it harder than anyone else. It breaks very sharply about three-quarters of the way down lo the plate.

Bobby Murcer on Luis TIant:

He has every pitch there is. And hes a very smart pitcher. All the head motions he goes through on the mound arent done for effect. Every one of them has a meaning and can really confuse you if you pay too much attention to them.

Jeff Burroughs on Nolan Ryan:

I hate to face him, even though he throws mostly fast balls and Tm a fast-ball hitter. Hes quite a bit faster than anyone else. When hes right, you cant touch him. Among left-handers, Vida Blue is the toughest for me. Ive faced him since minor-league days, and Ive had trouble with him from the very first time.

Johnny Bench on Andy Messersmith:

He developed a lot more consistency with his change-up this year and became awfully tough to hit. He is able to throw his change all the time and get away with it because you cant anticipate it He throws his changing stuff with exactly the same motion and delivery as his fast ball.

Jim Wynn on Tom Seaver:

His effectiveness was down this year, but he still throws as hard as anyone in the league. The most impressive thing about his fast ball is that it rises as it comes in on you, until its abg^ letter-high. Its very tough to time properly. Lynn McGlothen of St; Louis, who came to the National League this year from the Boston Red Sox, throws a good fast ball and a hard curve. Hes going to be real tough in th4 next few years.

Ralph Garr on Steve Carlton:

Whenever Im up at the plate. Im just trying to make contact with the ball. Were a power-hitting team, and I try to set things up for the hmner hitters who follow me in the lineup. Carlton, with his hard slider, gives me trouble, and so does Tommy John of the Dodgers, who throws a good sinker.

Steve Garvey on Bob Gibson:

Hes still one of the toughest pitchers around, especially with men on base. I wasnt in the league during his real big years, so I didnt face him at his peak. But hes still very fast and very tough. Youll get your hits off

him, but you have to work hard to score. Hes an excellent fielder too. Very quick at getting off the mound on bunts and on covering first.Richie Zisk on Andy Messersmith:

He has the best overall stuff. His fast ball is good, his change-up is excellent, and he knows how to pitch. I was more effective against him in 1973 than I was this year. He comes right at you and challenges you. Be

cause hes on a staff that has several very good pitchers, he probably doesnt get as much credit as he should.Rod Carew on Nolan Ryan:

Hes the fastest in the league. But Jim Bibby of the Texas Rangers isnt too far behind, and Jim Palmer always has been one of the hardest throwers around.

College coaches see these high school stars as tomorrows football heroes on university campuses

THE RUTLEDGES OF ALABAMA; Proud Papa Jack with his two quartarbacfca, Jaff (lafi) of BkminOhama Banks High School, and Gary, who doas his quartarbacking at tha UnivarsHy of Alabama.

Football recruiters for colleges across the country may he wearing out the roads that lead to Birmingham, Ala., by the time the 1974 hi^ school season winds down. The football bird dogs have an uncommon interest in Alabamas biggest city this fall. The reason? Of the more than 300,000 residents of the Pittsburgh of the South, two are considered among the most prized high school senior prospects in the nation.

They are Jdff Rutlddge, the

quarterback at Banks High School, and Tony Nathan, a running back from Woodlawn

A quarterback who passed for 2,178 yards...

A running back sfbo scored 19 touchdowns...

A lineman who stands 6-6 and weighs 250...

Will one of them be tomorrows Heisman winner?

High School. Along with 28 other highly touted youngsters, Rutledge and Nathan drew raves from a panel of men representing seven of the finest university football programs in the U.S. Alabama, Maryland, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Southern California and Texas.

Jeff Rutledges family has known its share of athletic accomplishment. His father Jack

was a scholarship baseball player at the University of Alabama in the early 1950s and spent six seasons as an infielder in the Chicago Cubs farm system. Gary, the redheaded older brother of brown-haired Jeff, is the starting senior quarterback for the current University of Alabama football squad, and is considered an outstanding candidate for All-America honors this year. Last fall, in leading

the Crimson Tide to the Sugar Bowl, Gary paced the Southeastern Conference in completion percentage and was voted the conferences Back of the Year.

The Rutledge home in Birminghams South End is only two blocks away from Banks High, where Jeff has thrown for 2,178 yards and run for another 1,046 yards in leading his tefr to the state championship the past two years. Banks has won 25 and tied one without losing at all over that span.

With two University of Alabama products in the same household, many expect Jeff to Continu

sarily Alabama.

George White, who has coached both Gary and Jeff at Banks, thinks Jeff, his current field leader, has more physical ability than Gary did. Jeff is 6-2 and 190 pounds, and Gary is about the same height and 175 pounds. Jeff may grow

some more too.

For his part, Jeff hopes to enter professional sports someday, either in baseball or football. He batted .385 as a shortstop for the Banks baseball team last spring. He also averaged about 15 points per game as a forward on the basketball team, but plans to abandon basketball this year to concentrate on honing his other sports skills. I like both baseball and football, says the youngest Rutledge. And Fd like to stay with both

as long as I can before 1 have to make up my mind which one Fll concentrate on.

Right now, Jeff is concentrating on Friday evening, November 8. On that night, his Banks squad takes on Woodlawn High at Birminghams Legion Field in a ccmtest that could have a large bearing on the Alabama sUte title.

bamas top games, has a seating capacity of 72,000. The Banks-Woodlawn clash is expected to attract more than 20,000 fans-an astonishing number for high school football. But they may well be watching an astonishing contest that night. Last year, Banks beat Woodlawn 17-7, after Nathan, the ace ballcarrier from the school on the east side of Birmingham, reeled off a 68-yard touchdown run in the opening two minutes of the first quarter. Luckily, our defense held Nathan in check the rest of the way, recalls Banks Coach White. But there was no question that he was the best back we faced last year. Hes really something.

Tony scored 19 touchdowns in all in 1973, running from scrimmage and on kick returns. He scampered for more than 1,000 yards. Of the 6-2, 195-pounder from Woodlawn High, one member of our panel of college recruiters says, Hes just a big kid with great speed. Everybody wants him. Jerry Pettibone of the Oklahoma coaching staff points out that

RonnI* Smtth, Mg Baytown, Taxaa, taclda.

the Sooners rarely have looked to the state of Alabama as a supplier of football players. "But in Nathans case, we hope hell consider us carefully before he makes up his mind.

If Nathan isnt the best running-back prospect in the U.S., the only other candidate for that designation is Paul Rica of Lewisville, Texas. According to a Family Weekly recruiting panelist, Lewisville Hi^ about 50 miles northwest of Dallas, gained prominence in Texas prep-football circles only in the past two or three years. Rice, a 5-11, 195-pound lad, will see to it that the school continues to be highly regarded this fall. Paul has rushed for more than 1,000 yards in each of the past two years and has been clocked at 4.6 seconds for 40 yards. In one 1973 game. Rice picked up a whopping 328 yards on the ground all by himself.

A total of 12 running backs

were cited by our seven-man panel of experts, the heaviest representation at any position. The most prominent besides Rice and Nathan are 227-pound fullback Greg Bielko of Lakewood, Ohio; Ron Bonner of Westwood High in Mesa, Ariz.; Billy Sims, a lad from Hooks, Texas, near the Arkansas border, who sprints 40 yards in an eye-poping 4.5 seconds; and Merltey Crane of San Franciscos Galiieo High, the same school that turned out O. J. Simpson.

Top senior quarterbadts on the national scene, in addition to Jeff Rutledge, include Thomas Loll' of Jay High in San Antonio and Turk Schonerl of Servite High, a small Catholic school in Anaheim, Calif.

If you suffer from any of the nervous symptoms listed above, then you must understand at once that your nerves are not ill ... they have not deteriorated . . . they have not lost their true physical health In any way! What has happened to them instead is that they have simply becoM OVER-SENSITIZED .. .rubbed raw by too much otMside irritalion ... and are now ready to dischartee the emotional and physical symptoms of panic at even the slightest thing that goes wrong!

Thus, the depression . . . indecision . .. losa of cortftdei^ tl ^ <Hher emotional symptoms you feel are all caused by OVER-SENSITIZED nerves! And the churning stomach .. . palpitating heart ... never-ending headaches and all the other physical nervous-^mptoms you feel areagainall caused by OVER-SENSITiZED nerves!

QmM therefore the way to treat ALL these symptoms b NOT drugs . . NOT with shock . .. NOT with medical formulatiom or hc^ pitalizations at all! The way to treat these nerves is to change the poisonous-thoughts that are rubbing them raw!

And this IS done (as proven by this imematioiiaUy-famed physician on thousands of patients) in four simple steps!

*^Whenwe found out what AARPdoes for people over

S5,my wifs didt rrdnd

texngherag

After a friend of ours told us about the American Association of Retired Persons, I said to my wife, *Irma, Everybody's having fun but us. Lots of people out there are having a marvelous time and we're sitting home counting the years.'

So I picked myself right up and filled out an AARP coupon just Wee the one on this page. I uxtnt to teU you it was the best thing we ever did."

WHA*rS AARP?

AARP is the American Association of Retired Persons or as we like to think of ourselvesThe new social security. Non-profit. Non-partisan. An association of more than 6 million people. Anybody whos over 55 can belong:. And all it costs to be a member is $2 a year. Which is almost like bu3ringr a whole new life for a few cents a week. You can stay home and enjoy it. You can be rich. Poor. Healthy. Not so healthy. Its probably one of the few organizations in the world that offers you the opportunity to give so much of yourself, if you so desire and at the same time provides so many benefits and services. Simply because its one purpose is to help you continue to feel vital, important and involved in every part of life.

WHAT YOU GET

To begin with, you can continue your education. You can fill your leisure time with hundreds of new meaningful activities.

At home. Or outside. You can meet new people. Make your voice heard in government. Be assured of reasonable prices on medicines, travel, on many of the necessities of life including health insurance. Youll receive two fine publications written just for you. In other words, youre going to have fun again and find that life ismore than j ust a way to pass time.

/ DONT STOP LEARNING

AARPainstitute of Lifetime Learning offers a full program of education courses in music appreciation, psychology, creative writing, literature, government, and a variety of other subjects. There are home study courses or you can attend lectures at regional centers around the country.

BE REPRESENTED IN GOVERNMENT

AARPs legislative program represents your interest with state legislatures and Congress. Its 33-point program is a Bill of Rights for all older persons retired or not. We let you know whats happening. So that you can know about all of the legislation put through on your behalf, and what remains to be accomplished.

FEEL BETTER WITH HEALTH INSURANCE Medicare doesnt cover everything. So one of AARPs most important benefits is eligibility for supplementary Group Health Insurance Plans. They help you to pay for the best medical and surgical treatment, and include a Skilled Nursing Facility and Home-Nursing Care Plan. Youll feel better just having this kind of protection.

PHARMACY SERVICE Because of the buying power represented by more than 6 million AARP members, AARP makes it possible for you to get over-the-counter and prescription medicine and supplies at re^istic prices and have them delivered to your home, postage paid.

GO PLACES

Where would you like to travel? Around the world? Across the country ? The AARP recommended travel service can help you do it. You can choose from a wide variety of quality tours and cruises, ranging from luxury to economy, escorted by experienced tour directors. The world is there. All you have to do is go into it.

FEEL LIKE WORKING?

Just because youre retired doesnt mean you cant work.

Mature Temps, an AARP recommended service, may be able to help you supplement your retirement income with part-time or temporary employment There are offices in a number of major metropolitan areas across the country. J ust call. Their service is free.

Nicola Naylors life changed

the day she met a spirited horse named Storm Haven. Pretty blonde Nicola, almost totally bhnd since birth, is also a willful wisp of a woman. For some reason the combination of Nicola and Storm Haven was the right one. They struck up an immediate mutual understanding that has led them, as-toundingly, to show jumping, ribbons and silver trophies. How does a girl with tunnel vision in one eye and no sight in the other manage to guide her horse over a jumping course? Easily, is Nicolas reply. She walks the course with Storm Haven before the events and counts the strides between eadi fence. I memorize the turns and discover whether the obstade is a waD or a gate, she says. Her form over the fences is so good that judges are generally unaware of her problem.

MARY JOHNSTON Okimt paper boy

Next Saturday is International Newspaper Carrier Day, named in honor of more than a miUion newspaper carriers throughout the world. The vast percentage of newspaper carriers are boys, generally in the 12-14 age bracket. The paper boy in Coalgate, Okla., is not a Ixjy at all. She is a woman, Mary Johnston. She is 88, has been dehv-

ering new^apers for 34 years, and, according to the International Association of Newspaper Circulation Managers, Washington, D.C., is the nations oldest paper carrier. Daily, Coalgate residents see Mrs. Johnston striding briskly up and down the streets qf the small town delivering the Ada, Okla., Evening and Sunday News. Her route covers five miles, and she walks it six days a week, rain or shine. She admits she is occasionaDy tempted to give up her job. But she always reconsiders. Keeps me limbered up, she says. Im old, and if old people dont do something, they start to set. They wind up setting in wheelchairs. Not me!

Greenville's Bicentennial is more than a festive community celebration commemorating a historic point in time.

It's a time of taking stock, of looking back on the spectrum of social, economic and cultural factors that have shaped our community and the lives of all of us living in Greenville today.

Nostalgia for the past is undeniably a significant thread in any retrospective rememberance. Most of us entertain a strong sense of sentimentality in recalling past years; our own and the past of our ancestors.

Old customs and traditions: former fashion styles; legends (true or not) about "colorful" characters in our family trees; a long gone rugged pattern of lifethese are all interwoven in our heritage and are endowed with an enduring appeal that is regenerated in the minds of each succeeding generation.

In this Greenville Bicentennial edition of "The Daily Reflector," emphasis h/as been placed in articles, drawings and photographs that tell the history of local people, events, places and customs.

Highlights of significant national and world events have also been included to provide a background perspective to the local picture.

This special edition should serve to remind area citizens of the rich and varied heritage that has characterized Greenville's first 200 years.r-

Mostly Developed Since 1940Efficient Farming Began Late

By BI.AN( UK HARDKK Reflector Staff Writer

Most of the agriculture efficiency that we know today has been developed since 1940.

According to Ed Yancey, executive director of the Pitt County Agriculture Extension

!,> years but the harvester has only a driver. No other workers are needed in the field. Another breakthrough in tobacco was the bulk curing which initially started on farms in l%l-62. Tobacco is placed on racks for curing rather than

,Senice. only a few changes in ,looped on sticks and placed in farming were seen between 1600 barns for curing.

and 1900 The changes in farming that we know today started about 1900 and most of the changes occurred after 1940.

There were no major developments as far as machinery in tobacco until the automatic tobacco harvester was put into use in 1972, Yancey explained. A priming aide machine was used for about

Farmers today have bigger equipment. The equipment hasnt changed much except for the size. There are now four-row tractors and other farming implements, Yancey explained.

Also important in todays farming is the technology affecting farming as far as the use of chemicals. The use of

chemicals, which came about after World War II, has been as important to farming as hard technology (equipment) has been, Yancey stated.

Chemical control has made a change in the way people farm today. Yancey said. There are chemical controls for insects, disease and weeds. There are also growth regulators.

Almost equally important is the change in variety, such as hybrid seeds.

In more recent years we have had tremendous strides in varieties which have increased yields, bred resistance to insects into plants, and bred more desirable characteristics, Yancey said.

LARGEST .MO.NEY .MAKERS . . .Tobacco and corn are the two major crops produced in Pitt County. Other important income sources include

soybeans, horticulture crops, peanuts, hogs, eggs, forest products and beef and dairy cattle.

The changes in credit have been important, too.

Farm programs which have been credited in the past years have had a tremendous influence on agriculture, Yancey said. The new programs made money available for farmers to take advantage of technology that has been developed.

The land grant college system was established in 1862 and experiment stations were set up in 1887. Agricultural Extension Services were established in 1914, the agrucultural director stated.

The cooperative agricultural extension service was set up in 1914 to disseminate information obtained in research situations.

, There was a need to get this information out to the farmers the appointment of county agents made this possible. Information learned from research was brought to the farm level and to the home level by county agents, Yancey stated.

According to Yancey, the current farm policy followed by the national government has had a great impact on farming, such as the policy of offering trade incentives to other countries and the decision to have a tobacco program and the freight rate schedule.

Todays farmer has quite an advantage over the farmer of 200 years ago.

The early farmers had only hoes, rakes and a few other crude tools and their plows were heavy wooden ones that were hard to pull.

There was little or no crop rotation. The farmers raised the same crop on the same land year after year until the soil was drained of all plant food. They then left the land and went out to find new soil. Without terraces and hillside ditches, the soil washed away and gullies appeared.

At least 95 percent of the early settlers in North Carolina were engaged in farming. There was an abundance of land and little money.

Prior to 1730, the system of granting lands prevailed. After that, the customary way of acquiring land was by purchase. Prior to the Revolutionary War, land was selling for as high as 15 pounds sterling per 100 acres. The colonial household was

practically self-sufficient. In addition to raising their own food, the farmers made their clothing, shoes, major household articles and farming items such as harnesses and other essential articles. Usually what the farmer could not raise on his farm he and his family did without.

Today, as well as in colonial North Carolina, there were large and small landowners. The men who owned large tracts of land and tended the fields with servants were known as planters. 'Those who had small parcels of land and worked them themselves were called farmers.

About one family in 25 in North Carolina belonged to the class of planters and very few owned as much as 1,000 acres of land or as many as 50 slaves.

The small farmer in 1776 seldom owned more than 200 or 300 acres of land and the average per farm was 50 acres each.

Farming saw a change in 1850. The people of North Carolina earned more money and life began to improve for everyone.

Higher prices were paid for the crops and goods and trade was made easier due to improvements in transportation.

Between 1850 and 1860 the value of farm crops more than doubled. North Carolina was still a farming state. Ctorn, wheat, tobacco and cotton were increased in volume. The tobacco crop increased almost three times during this ten-year period.

Bright leaf tobacco was discovered in 1852 and this made a tremendous impact in the tobacco industry.

In 1860 North Carolina stood second among the southern states in the production of oats and rye, Yancey said. It was third in tobacco, rice, wheat and hogs; fifth in cotton and ninth in the true value of land, slaves and other property.

The chief crops in Pitt County today are tobacco, corn, soybeans, horticulture crops (mainly cucumbers) and peanuts. Other top income sources include hogs, eggs, forest products, beef cattle and dairy cattle.

Farmers began to improve farm life and methods about 1860. Several farm papers were printed asking farmers to use better seeds, to plow deeper and to use fertilizers.

North Carolina became a state of small farmers in 1860 with the mass of white people belonging

to the class of small farmer, tenant, slave overseers and such workingmen as carpenters, mill hands. blacksmiths, and workers in naval stores industry and fisheries.

With the invention of the cotton gin in 1793 cotton became a great money crop.

The price of a field hand in North Carolina rose from about $300 in 1804 to $800 in 1840 and $1,000 in 1860.

'The farm scene changed with the coming of the Civil War The people faced many hardships such as the lack of food, clothing

and other supplies that could not be grown or made on the farm.

The women were left to keep the farm going while the men went off to fight in the war.

Prices rose so high that few people could afford to buy the things they needed- Bacon rose from 33 cents per pound in 1852 to $7.50 per pound in 1865. Eggs rose from 35 cents a dozen to $5 a dozen; wheat from $3 to $50 a barrel; and flour from $18 to $500 a barrel.

After the civil war. the men returned home to find their (Cont on page 1-3)

AUTOMATIC PRIMER...Tony Hardee of Rt 3, Greenville, used an automatic tobacco primer to harvest his crop. This is the second year he has used this machine which will harvest about 3,000 pounds of tobacco in five to six hours. Only a driver is needed for the primer. Five other workers are employed by the Hardees to do the trucking and filling the bulk barns. 'The primer

has a belt or blade which breaks the tobacco from the stalk and a chain conveyor carries the leaves into a tobacco truck. This primer has been on the market since 1971, A few machines were placed on the market in 1971 and a few more in 1972. A total of 200 machines were made in 1973. Cost of the primer and three tobacco trucks is $16,000. (Reflector Photo By Blanch Hardee)

families without money and with little food. All that was left was the land.

A new life had to be started. Sharecropping came into existence after the Civil War.

A large majority of the free slaves remained on the farms and plantations and worked the land for share of the crop or for wages

Under the sharecropping system, the landowner would advance money for supplies until harvest and furnish the sharecroppers with homes, land, tools and stock.

North Carolina seemed to recover quickly from the war. Before 1880 cotton and other crops were larger than they were in 1860.

In return for the landowners support, the tenant had to pay a share of his crop to the landowner.

The number of North Carolina farms more than doubled from 1860 to 1880. They increased from 75,000 to 157,000 and the average size of farms dropped from 316 acres to 142 acres.

From 1860 to 1900 the production of cotton increased in the state more than threefold. Tobacco increased fourfold, to 128,000,000 pounds.

The high costs for the things the farmer needed and the little profit received kept the farmer from making money. It seemed he was always a year behind in paying his bills.

The Grange was organized in North Carolina in 1873. The Granges were interested in the improvement of farming methods, cooperative buying of farm equipment and supplies and generally, improvement in rural farm life.

After 1930, tobacco was king in North Carolina agriculture.

There was an increase in the number of farms in 1930 and an increase in the per acre yield and total production.

Farmers became more and more mechanized after 1930 and the number of farm animals increased, Yancey said. The number of farmers increased from 224,000 to 301,000.

In 1960, the state had 190,567 farms and the average size farm

VO A Project Located Here Due To Odd Chain Of Events

The story started when the VGA. in an effort to strengthen

REMINDER OF DAYS GONE BY , . . few mules are used in farm work today. They have been replaced by such modern inventions as the two-row and four-row tractors, tobacco harvesters

and combines and other machines that require human drivers. There is still a large number of mules in Pitt County but very few still play a role in the daily routine of getting farm chores done.

dropped from 101 acres in 1900 to 64.5 in 1930.

The average size farm rose to 67.7 acres in 1940, declined to 66.3 in 1950. but rose to 83.4 in 1960.

After 1939, tobacco brought in $125,000,000 and in 1963, income from tobacco was $547,000.000.

Much of the progress seen in agriculture after 1940 was the result of better methods of farming, the use of fertilizer, and the use of more and better machinery, Yancey said.

In 1940, the percentage of farms operated by tenants dropped to 44 per cent; to 42.6 percent in 1945 and to 30.4 percent in 1959.

During the 1920s, the farmers and manufacturers were producing more goods than the world could buy at good prices.

The New Deal Program* was passed by Congress in 1933 to help control production of cotton, tobacco and other cro^s. If the farmer wanted feder^f control, the government would limit the crop of each farmer and make money payments to help. This increased the demand

for the crops produced and the farmers were able to realize a larger profit.

Farmers received payment for limiting certain crops and for soil conservation.

Some of the greatest changes in agriculture between 1954 and 1964 were:

a decline in the number of farms;

an increase in the size of farms;

^n increase in the use of farm machinery and a decrease in the number of horses and mules;

large scale agriculture became important;

great increase in the value of farms, both per farm and per acre;

a rapid decline in the number and percentage of farm tenants;

a greater interest in scientific farming.

With the establishment of the Agricultural Conservation Program, the 1948 crop yields are estimated at 63 per cent more per acre than the 1927-36 average.

The improved farming practices encouraged under ACP played a substantial part in obtaining these increases. Other important factors included favorable weather conditions, improved .crops and varieties, widespread mechanization and progress in improved technique and methods of production.

The farms participating in the 1948 Agricultural Conservation Program in North Carolina included about 4,122,745 acres of cropland representing about 60 percent of the States total active cropland.

According to Carey Faulk of the Pitt County ASCS office, there were 2,735 farms in Pitt County in 1948 with tobacco allotments. Of this total, 32,298.9 acres of tobacco were planted and 31,513.6 acres were harvested.

The total production of tobacco in 1948 in Pitt County was 3,274,500 pounds with a per acre yield of 1,246 pounds. The alloted acres of tobacco per farm in Pitt was 11.8.

Currently, there are 2,487 farms in Pitt County. The

average size farm in cropland is 67 acres and the average^^obacco allotment is 9.75 acres.

The 1973 annual report of the ASCS office shows that the total pounds of tobacco marketed in Pitt County in 1973 was 45,109,990, as compared with 37,534,754 in ,1972.

A total of 1,049 farms transferred their tobacco allotment in 1973 as compared with 348 farms in 1966. The total number of pounds transferred in 1973 was 8,880,710, as compared with 2,363,840 pounds in 1966. Pitt County farms with tobacco allotments totaled 2,567 in 1973 with the basic allotment totaling 22,327.49 acres.

The peanut program is the third largest production adjustment program administered in Pitt County. Ilotas were approved in 1971 for the years 1972, 1973, and 1974, Faulk explained. The county allotment on peanuts for 1973 was 6,720 acres and the number of farms with peanut allotments totaled 837.

The county allotment on cotton was 4,230 acres with 1,335 farms participating. A total of 394 acres were planted during 1973 with 34 farms participating.

A total of 105,686 acres of feed grain were planted in 1973 with 1,942 farms participating.

Records show that in 1973 farmland totaled 386,000 acres in Pitt County and cropland was 166,240 acres.

the U.S. shortwave broadcasts to foreign listeners, decided to establish Baker East, a transmitter project, at Wilmington, and Baker West, a counterpart near Seattle, Wash

Actual work on the project was w'ell underway when McCarthys Government Operations Committee said it had found considerable evidence of Communist infiltration of those departments handling the program broadcasts. The committee concluded that poor planning, reckless disregard for taxpayers money, incompetence, stupidity or worse featured VGAs technical operation.

The investigations and charges had their effect and VGA was on shaky ground. Projects Baker East and Baker West were cancelled. The McCarthy Committee said $18 million had been saved by the cancellation

Six years later the House Appropriations subcommittee took a different view. The subcommittee, headed by Rep. John J. Rooney, New York Democrat, approved funds for a VGA project near Greenville.

Henry Loomis, director of the VGA, testified before the subcommittee that the cancellation had cost the taxpayers $2.5 million. He reported that land was bought for Baker East at $82 and acre and consequently sold for $44 jin acre; that $338-an-acre land bought for Baker West was sold for $167 and acre.

Cost of land at the Greenville sites was $183 per acre.

After three years of clearing land, three sites in a triangle around Greenville were ready for original Baker West site. Stations at Dixon and Delano. Calif., were undergoing a $10 million modernization.

The Voice of America broadcasts 740 hours per week, compared with 1,205 hours broadcast by Radio Moscow and 787 hours broadcast by the Red Chinese. Two of the sites, which

are about 2,800 acres apiece, are for transmitting while the third is a receiving station.

Folk Cures Of

A Bygone Era

(From North Carolina Folklore Journal. Vol. XXii, No. 3. Aug. 1974).

OLD FOLK REMEDIES FROM GREENE COUNTY By TONI SUGG When I was engaged in a field study of home remedies in Greene County, I talked with Mrs. Claude Small, age 75.

Hospital Care Began In 1920

ByCAROI.B TYFR Reflector Staff Writer The ne^^ Pitt Memorial Hospital now being built on Greenville's western outskirts will be Pitt Countys fourth hospital facility Pitt Community Hospital, opened in 1920. was the upper story of the building which now houses H I. Hodges Hardware Company on h'ast Fifth Street here

The first attempt to afford Pitt Countians a local hospital was made in 1910 when some private individuals formed a corporation called Pitt County Memorial Hospital. Inc Accordinu to Pitt Count> Coroner F,\V Harvey .Ir . who has a share of the stock bought by his father each share sold for $10 J.F Winslow was the

Corporation president and J.L.' Perkins was the secretary The hospital this group planned never came into being, but the Pitt Community Hospital also was a venture by private individuals. It was first owned by three local physicians. Dr. W I Wooten Sr.. Dr. K.B. Pace Sr.. and a Dr Dickinson, who later moved to W'ilson. Any doctor who came to town could practice there and buy in if he wished, though according to Dr. .lohn Wooten, who is Dr. W.I. Wootens son In 1923. the doctors obtained the white brick building on .lohnston Street here that now houses the Pitt County Department of Social Services. Their private hospital was operated until 1936,

A group of citizens formed a

non-profit organization in that year and rented the building from the doctors, naming it Pitt General Hospital. The doctors continued to have a private clinic on the first floor of the building, with Pitt General, except for administrative offices, being housed on the second floor.

By 1940, the non-profit group had bought the entire hospital and equipment. They then had 42 beds.

In 1942. Elizabeth City native. C.D. Ward, who had been a school teacher and principal in Pitt County for several years, was hired as Pitt Generals administrator. Over the years. Ward, who is now retired and living in Myrtle Beach, S.C., said 72 beds were allowed for by making private rooms into semi

private ones, semi-pnvates into wards, and a sunporch into several additional rooms.

When he became administrator, Ward said there were 19 doctors on the meidcal staff and approximately 70 employees in the hospital.

Plans were made in the 1940s for a new wing for Pitt General. However, in 1948 it was decided to ask the taxpayers for a bond issue that would provide $900,000 for a new hospital to be known as Pitt Memorial.

The bond issue passed and work began on a building that was finished in 1951. Located on a 17-and-one-half-acre site on the west side of Greenville on land donated by the family of Jesse Rountree Moye, the finished facility cost $1,400,000 including equipment. Money came from

the federal, state, and county governments and from the N.C. Medical Care Commission.

The hospital, which is still in use, was opened Feb. 8, 1951, with Mrs. Kenneth Dews of Winterville and her week-old son. Kenny, being the first patients to enter, moved over from Pitt General. There were then 30 doctors on the staff and 101 employees.

In 1958 Pitt voters approved a $675,000 bond issue to provide expansions at Pitt Memorial. The A-wing added increased bed capacity to 200, approximately what it is today, though beds in the halls and other crannies

have topped this supposed capacity somewhat.

The need for increased bed capacity, plus the need for more space in various departments and more sophisticated systems and equipment made the Board of Trustees decide only in this decade that for optimum patient care, a new facility was needed. Reasons given included population growth of the Greenville area, plus greatly increased numbers of patient referrals due to the specialized medical care that is being offered in Greenville now.

A $9 million bond issue was approved by Pitt voters in

November, 1972.

The hospital now being constructed on a 100-acre tract will have 315 private patient beds.

The buildings will be campus style in design and each will be one-story, with the exception of two three-story 150-bed circular patient care towers.

There will be nine operating rooms, nine radiographic rooms, and expanded and separate emergency and outpatient areas, as well as a connected rehabilitation unit.

Bids for the hospital were accepted Feb. 2 of this year at a cost of $15,900,000. Construction began Valentines Day. The

proposed completion time is the fall of 1976, with patients hopefully being admitted before the end of that year.

Jack Richardson is the present hospital administrator. He replaced Ward in 1971. The hospital is governed by 18 trustees appointed by the County Commissioners to represent all sections of the county.

There are now 85 doctors, 22 dentist and one physicians assistant on the staff, and the hospital has 630 employees. During the fiscal year which ended Sept. 30, there were 69,813 days of care given to 11,500 patients.

become a regional as well as a county medical facility. (Reflector Photo by Carol Tyer)

MGIST27.1771

Four provincial congresses were held in North Carolina in the years 1774-1776 The first of these, which met at New Bern. August 25. 1774. was called as a result of a Wilmington mass meeting, which had declared it highly expedient that a provincial congress indep)endent of the governor be held. Governor Martin had refused to call the Assembly in time to elect delegates to the Continental Congress. Hence it was deemed expedient to call a provincial congress for that purpose Thirty countries and six towns were represented in the first Provincial Congress by seventy-one delegates. John Harvev was chosen moderator The Congress remained in session only three days, but during that time it fully launched North Carolina into the revolutionary movement. It drew up a set of resolutions, which severely criticized the acts and policies of the British government, at the same time professing loyalty to the mother country

K.T. Futrell Set Pattern For PitFs Social Service

Bv( AROI.B. TYKR

Reflector Staff Writer

The welfare philosophy is that life is richer and happier for all when each person in a group contributes to the betterment of the lives of all in the group " It is the Biblical idea, 1 am my brother's keeper "

The man responsible for the directions of the Pitt County Social Services Department lived these idet^s. according to the present director. Miss Dorothy Bolton.

A Guilford Countian who had graduated from Guilford College. K T Futrell began work here Oct 1. 192H as the

superintendent of the Pitt County Welfare Department. He made Pitt County's needy people his concern and his career for the next 39 years There had been one temporary director before Futrell. but Marvin K Blount Sr.. then a voung attorney, had taken the job in July. 1919 with the understanding that it would be temporary, only until a full-time superintendent could be found A 1917 action by the General Assembly had provided for a Welfare Department in every county, with a full-time superintendent in all counties with more than 45.000 population. Prior to this since shortly after the turn of the century, the county schools superintendent had had the job of getting what help was available for dependent children and administering the county home program, as well There have been only three directors since Futrell. These are J.S. "Pete Grimes, now in the State Social Services Division of the Department of Human Resources; Ted Gart-man. now coordinator of Social Work Programs for the Department of Social Work and Corrections of the East Carolina University School of Allied Health and Social Professions; and Miss Bolton, present director

"Mr. Future"

Gartman remembers that Futrell w as known by most of his clients and friends as "Mr. Future." "His name must have

lieen difficult for some to say at first." Gartman mused, "but by the time I met him this is the name almost every used for him. 1 think he liked ithe hoped it connoted that he could, in some way. improve the futures of many of the Departments clients Even after Mr. Grimes and then 1 had served for some few years, wed have people come in and ask to see the new Mr Future upstairs.

Futrell and his secretary were Welfare for many years. Their office was located in the Blount Building on Third Street for some years and later was moved to the Pitt County Courthouse. It was moved into the building vacated by Pitt General Hospital when Pitt Memorial Hospital was opened in 1951. Here the Social Services Department remains.

Early Welfare Programs consisted almost entirely of Mothers Aid. not unlike the Aid to Dependent Children Program of today, with much less money involved "It was not a question of giving away money when 1 started." the late Mr. Futrell was quoted as saying. "All we had to give was service. State's Part The State Board of Public Welfare supervised all state charitable and penal institutions. It assisted counties in their public welfare programs, inspecting county jails, poorSpelling Test For Everybody

.All students who entered East Caorlina Teachers Training .School were given a test in spelling on the first Saturday of the Fall Term Those who spelled ninety out of a hundred familiar words in everyday use were excused from further work in spelling. Those who did not pass this test were required to take spelling for one term, or longer, if necessary A test was given at the end of each term

houses, and other penal and charitable institutions. And it administered benefit payments to the aged needy, the needy blind, and dependent children.

Prior to 1917, most welfare in this state has consisted of taking care of ones own and of immediate acquaintances, although there were state hospitals for the insane, blind, and deaf. There also was a site prison.

The first thought of the states having any part at all in the public welfare seems to have begun during the administration of Gov. John Morley Morehead. Largely through his efforts, the General Assembly voted in 1845 to start a school for the blind and deaf in Raleigh

In 1848, Miss Dorothea L. Dix of Massachusetts moved the legislature to action on establishing a place for the care of insane persons. She spent 10 weeks collecting information about the insane people of North Carolina. Then she wrote a statement to be presented to the legislators. In this "memorial, she described the shocking treatment received by more than a thousand North Carolinians classified as insane in private homes, county poorhouses. and jails.

The new state constitution, drafted during Reconstruction in 1868, gave the poor rights they had never had before. Provision was made for a Board of Charities and Public Welfare.

After 1900, the State enlarged and improved its institutions for the ipsane, blind, and deaf. Hospitals for crippled children, for cerebral palsy victims, and for tuberculosis patients were established. Also, institutions for the mentally retarded were started.

Now there are four schools for the mentally retardedCaswell Center in Kinston serves this area; four hospitals for the mentally illCherry Hospital in Goldsboro is where Pitt patients are sent; the North Carolina School for the Blind in Raleigh; the N.C. School for the Deaf in Wilson; and seven training juvenile corrections schools throughout the state including

Dobbs School for Girls in Kinston and Foiultain Schools in Rocky Mount; nine prisons, two prison farms and 63 prison camps.

Trend Toward Community

Humane treatment of persons who vary frrom the norm was the first step, and institutionalization seemed to be the answer in most instances. Now the trend is moving toward handling of persons with problems in the community. Many persons committed years ago to institutions have been brought back to their families and to society. Some are working and have become contributors to the states tax structure, instead of costing the state. Many having no families have been settled into family

care units where those caring for them are receiving help from the state, but at much less cost than institutionalization.

Private enterprise also has come into the picture. Mostly elderly and physically disabledYWCA Center Of Interest

The Young Womens Christian Association was the center of the religious interests of East Carolina Teachers College during the twenties

This association was organized in 1909. All students were urged to take an active part in that phase of the schools work.

Regular devotional meetings were held and several different courses in Bible and mission study were given.

More than fifty per cent of the students in 1920 enrolled in these classes

Every year this Association sent delegates to the Southern Student Conference, held at Blue Ridge, North Carolina, where methods were studied for the prosecution of the ensuing years work.

persons needing care other than in the home are kept in privately owned nursing homes. Pitt disestablished its County Home for the Aged in 1965.

"Rest homes, which care for Ihose not needing intensive nursing care are also available in this county.

General hospitals are also helping keep the patient in the community. For instance, many who once would have had to enter a state hospital for the mentally ill far from home are now placed under a physicians care in Pitt Memorial hospital, and an even more extensive psychiatric care unit is planned for the new Pitt Memorial hopefully to be completed in 1976.

North Carolina, just in recent years, had increased its services to the alcoholic. Although it has had a hospital for alcoholics at Butner for many years, only in the 1960s was the regional alcoholic rehabilitation center concept brought into being Financing of the ARC, one of which is the Walter B. Jones ARC in Greenville, is done largely because of a law introduced by now first District Congressman Walter B. Jones when he was a state senator. This law provided for a five-cent "price increase on every bottle of liquor sold in North Carolina.

New Deal Brought Money

"As he said, back when Mr. Futrell first started, there were few funds, Miss Bolton said, "and most of it came from the county itself. Services were limited.

REALTOR

Assistance as we know it today came into being with the Social Security Act of 1935, part of Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelts New Deal, Miss Bolton went on. Under this system, the aged needy, the needy blind, and dependent children received monthly payments from federal, state, and local funds,

In the first five years of the New Deal, North Carolinians received some $248,053,000 in federal aid.

The structure of the Welfare Department, which was renamed Social Services in 1967, has stayed basically the same as it was in New Deal days, though many services' and programs have come and gone. Miss Bolton said.

Pitt went from a Commodities food distribution program to a Food Stamp Program in 1969.

Only in January of this year was a major change madethe dispersal of funds for the aged the disabled, and the blind was moved from Social Services to the Social Security Commission. Services are still rendered to these people, but only the funds for the Medicaid and Medicare and the Aid to Dependent Children programs are now handled by Social Services, plus, of course, the Food Stamp Program.

When I came here in 1952, Miss Bolton said, "We had 12 people working at Social Services, including Mr. Futrell. Today there are 82 of us. There are many, many more people to serve, and we hope were improving all the time.

A Museum Of Medical History

ByCAROLTVER Reflector Staff Writer

BAILEYThe Country Doctor Museum here tells the medical history of Greenville and Pitt County, as well as of probably every other community in North Carolina.

Housed in a modest building that is two doctors offices put together, it holds memorabia of many men who offered their services to the sick and the injured in years past. Its a well-rounded display of the tools of the general practitioners who

sometimes had to act as surgeons, pharmacists, obstetricians, and in other related capacities.

According to Dr. Thomas C. Parramore, a medical historian and professor of history at Meredith College in Raleigh, the rural medical practitioner was a jack-of-all-medical-trades. He delivered babies, treated illnesses and injuries, pulled teeth, set bones, compounded remedies, nursed those who responded and comforted those who did not. All his

paraphenalia is to be seen in the Country Doctor Museum.

Its the dream child of Dr. Josephine E. Newell, a Bailey family physician, and of Dr. Gloria Flippin Graham, a Wilson dermatologist. Its located next to Dr. Newells home in Bailey.

The two doctors offices combined to make the museum building are those of Dr. Howard Franklin Freeman of Rock Ridge and of Dr. Cornelius Henry Brantly of Stanhope.

The museum was chartered March 13, 1967 and was

dedicated on a cold day in December, 1968.

Light Fixtures from Pitt County Perhaps the most interesting room in the museum is the Doctors office and examining room. In it are a roll-top desk, a swivel chair, and a telephone said to be the 42nd ever installed in the Carolinas. The light fixture in this room, and one in the apothecary shop were contributed by Mrs. Eloise Kinsaul of Farmville, who bought the home and office long occupied by Dr. David Morrill in Farmville.

In the office and examining room are displays of obstetrical instruments, a convertible operating table<hair (c. 1860), metal instrument trays, iron wash stands, a wooden leg with all the straps intact, a gout stool, and a caned wooden wheelchair.

The apothecary shop boasts beautiful wild cherry cabinets

from the first pharmacy Bailey. 'These hold numerous stock apothecary bottles, some still containing medicines, almost all retaining their original labels. Theres a pill-rolling machine, a label cabinet, and several mortars and pestles. In this room, also, is the extensive library of old medical books owned by the Museum.

An oil painting kept in this room is one of three of its type in the world. Painted by an unknown artist, it is entitled Christ the Apothecary of the Soul. Its a German work only recently purchased for the Museum.

A large room holds most of the museums displays. Here are found furniture and many pieces of equipment and instruments including blood-letting equipment, several amputation sets, and several old-fashioned stethescopes and vaporizers.

in and a pocket spittoon.

In the backyard of the house is a medicinal garden prepared by Miss Elizabeth Lawrence of Charlotte, a landscape architect, and patterned after the Botanic Garden in Padau, Italy, which is the oldest medicinal garden in

Europe. The N.C. Wild Flower Preservation Society Inc. acted as advisor and plant source. Here grow all kinds of herbs and other medicinal plants from foxglove, which is the source of digitalis, to sassafras. Its beautiful and a fragrant place to be

Later reports confirmed the accident and aubaequent alnking of the Titanic, but led to believe that through her wirelesa apparatus the had been able to summon assistance from neighterlng veaaela and that the transfer of paaaengera and crew had been speedy and safe. Still later dispatches sent broadcast by the United Press reported that the loss of human life pas the largest in the history of msrtae disaster, placing the figure of human toll at 1500. It is yet hoped that these numbers will prove Incorrect and that several j1* which answered the Tltanlcs aummona for help picked up a greater number of paasaengera and crews but that owing to the area covered it has not been possible to esUblish communication wlh all of them.

The Titanic, on her maiden voyage from Liverpool to New York had a safe passage until nearing the coasU of New Foundland where she met many Icebergs. An unusual number of these dreaded floating moun-taina having been already reported by other atearaera along the Atlantic ports. The coloaaal iceberg which atruck the Titanic at 2:i0 oclock Monday morning emerged some 225 feet from the water. Scarcely four houra after being atruck the Titanic sunk to the botom. Immediaeely after the accident all life boaU were manned and women and children lowered to them. Later these life boats were picked up by the Carpathia which waa j the first Bteamer to answer the frantic appeals for help sent out by the mlnoclty a<l^^iss of he Titanic.

John F. Kennedy Slain By Assassin *s Rie During Dallas Visit; Lyndon Johnson To Assume Mantle

DALLAS (AP)President John F. Kennedy, thirty- sixth president of the United States, was shot to death today by a hidden assassin armed with a high-powered rifle.

Kennedy, 46, lived about an hour after a sniper cut him down as his limousine left downtown Dallas.

Automatically, the mantl^ of the presidency fell to Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson, a native Texan who had been riding two cars behind the chief executive.

There was no immediate word on when Johnson would take the oath of office.

Kennedy died at Parkland Hospital where his bullet-pierced body had been taken in a frantic but futile effort to save his life.

Lying wounded at the same hospital was Gov. John Connally of Texas, who was cut down by the same fusillade that ended the life of the youngest man ever elected to the presidency. ^

Connally and his wife had been riding with the Prendeiit and Mrs. Kennedy.

The First Lady cradled her dying husbands bloodsmeared head in her arms as the presidential limousine raced to the hospitaL

Oh, no, she kept crying.

Connally slumped in his seat beside the

President.

Police ordered an unprecedented dragnet of the city, hunting for the assassin.

They believed the fatal shots were fired by a white man, about 30, slender of build, weighing about 165 pounds, and standing 5 feet 10 inches tall.

Shortly before Kennedys death became known, he was administered the last rites of the Roman Catholic Church. He had been the first Roman Catholic president in American history.

Even as two clergymen hovered over the fallen President in the hospital emergency room, doctors and nurses administered blood transfusions!

Kennedy died of a gunshot wound in the brain at approximately 1 p.m. CST according to an announcement by acting White House press secretary Malcolm Kilduff.

in anger, anguish and despair.

I knew then something tragic bad happened.

Yarborough had counted three rifle shots as the presidential limousine left downtown Dallas through a triple underpass. The shots were fired from above possibly from aie of the bridges or fnmi a nearby building.

One witness, television reporter Mai Couch, said he saw a gun nerge from an upper story of a warehouse commanding an unobstructed view of the presidential car.

Kennedy was the flrst presi-

dent to be assassi^ted since was shot in

The new President, Lyndon Johnson, and his wife left the hospital a half hour later. Newsmen had no opportunity to question them.

The horror of the assassination was mirrored in an eye-wltaess account by Sen. Ralph Yarborough, D-Tex., who had been riding three cars behind

Kennedy.

You could tell something awful and tragic had happened, the senator told newsmen before Kennedys death became known. His voice breaking and his eyes red-rimmed, Yarborough said;

I could see a Secret Service man in the Presidents car leaning on the car with his hands

LYNDON JOHNSON . . new Preaident

William McKinley 1901.

It was the first death of a president in office since Franklin D. Roosevelt died of a cerebral hemorrhage at Warm Springs, Ga.. in April 1945.

Roosevelt had been enjoying a vacation when he died. McKinley had been shaking hands at a reception at an expositicm in Buffalo, N.Y.

Kennedy and his wife had just passed the halfway point in a three-day speaking tour through Texas.

The President already had prepared a luncheon address for a Dallas audience before he died. In his prepared text, he assailed his ultraconservative critics.

Dallas is considered a center of conservative philosophy and finance.

Here, on Oct. 24, Adlai E. Stevenson was spat upon by one heckler and struck by another after making a United Nar tions Day address.

It was believed that Kenne days body would be moved shortly to Washington.

Traditionally, funeral services for presidents who die in office are held in the capital city.

Kilduff told newsmen that Gov. Connally. a Democrat, was wounded in the right chest in the same ambush that felled the President.

Connally was rushed into surgery for a two-hour nergency

operation.

Kennedy, 46, lived about 30 minutes after a sniper cut him down as his limousine left downtown Dallas. Newsmen said the shot that hit him was fired about 12:30 pm. (CST). A hospital announcement said he died at approximately 1 p.m. of a bullet wound in the head.

Asst, presidential press secretary Malcolm Kilduff said Johnson was not hit. The new President previously had been reported wounded.

Connally also was hit in the right wrist.

Though Mrs. Kennedy cried, Oh, No, in horror and despair after her husband was was shot, she did not collapse or give way to hysteria.

When he entered the hospital her clothing was covered with blood from her husbands wounds.

Lt. Erich Kaminski of the S> cret Service said the assasalnk weapon appeared to have been a high-powered Army or Japanese rifle of about .25 caliber. The rifle had a scope on it, be said.

The entire building where the sniper was located was evacuar tcd. People were working in the building at the time of the shooting.

Dallas inspector J. H. Sawyer said, Police found the remains of fried chicken and paper on the fifth floor. Apparently the persons had been there quite awhile.

After the fatal shots were fired at Kennedy, the stricken Presidents Secret Service driver raced away from the scene at top speedheading for the nearest hospital and trying to get the presidential party A of range of furUier gtmfire.

City Councflmen

Ask Action On NewsIsShodcTo

N.C. 43 Bypass Greenville People

City Councilmen yesterday asked the State Highway Commission to initiate action for

construction of an N.C. 43 bypass through and around Greenville.

The action was taken at a special council meeting.

In a letter adopted by the council the Highway Commission was asked that this project be given the highest possible priority for construction.

"The need for improved thoroughfare routing through and around Greenville has long keen recognized. the letter said.

No Trace Of U-2 Pilot

KEY WEST, Fla. ( A P ) Navy divers searched through waters of the Gulf of Mexico today trying to determine the fate of a U2 pilot, Capt. Joe G. Hyde Jr., whose high-flying jet plunged into the ocean northwest of Key West Wednesday.

Other Navy vessels and aircraft checked a wide area with a fading hope of finding him.

The U2s mission was secret. The Defense Department and Strategic Air Command said the reconnaissance plane probably crashed because of mechanical failure. When it went down, it was out of Cuban antiaircraft gun range, and the radar screen on which it was being traced apparently showed no other aircraft.

Shock, surprise and indignation The coimcll agreed in the letter was the reaction of Greenville

citizens this afternoon at the shooting of President John F. Kennedy and Texas Governor John Connally.

E. M. Foley summed up the reaction of most people when he said I have a feeling of indignation against anyone who disagrees with a man or his policies to this extreme. I dont think who evyr did it will receive any sympathy.

The council also agreed to pay contract costs or install curb and gutter sections along rights-of-way within the city limits, provided 52 feet width pavement is installed.

'The proposed N.C. 43 route would leave 264 a short distance

Frank Dail said he was very shocked. It is really a sad thing. The man who did it had no value of his own life.

U.S. Takes Cooler View Of Trade Prospects

BT DARDEN CHAMBLISS P Business New Writer

NEW YORK (APi - Americas buslne.s.smen are taking a new and colder look at Interaa-tuKial commerce prospects.

They speak of a drastic turnabout In the last few months.

The European Common Mar-| ket. many say. ha* turned sour.

So has the hope that trade Ues will produce a political Unlt^ States of Europe to stand solid against communism.

And now the Communists are holding out their own prospects of trade, gralu so far but maybe other gooda later.

Businessmen questioned dur-tag a cross-country tour to sample the nations business mood say they're not quite certain what to make of all this.

Says Robert Keith, executive vice president of the Pillsbury r . In MlnneaooUs: Well have

to be on our toes if we're to come out ahead.

Keith says the United SUtes moved it can to revive prospects for free world trade, at the same time making the most of any Communist offers.

These comments came on the eve of meetings to lay the | gioundwork for a new round of international tariff negotiations, made possible by' the U. S. Trade Expansion Act of 1962. They come also at a time when tariff disputes rage over several products, p.sprclally farm goods.

The mood In this country contrasts with talk a year ago. when excitement over the Com-j mon Market was high. Businessmen saw that slx-natlon union of France, Germany. Italy.

' Belgium, the Netherlands. Luxembourg as a beguiling market for American goods.

But early this year, France vetoed Britain's petition for entry. The other members quarreled on several issues. Levies against American poultry were raised and America readied tariff reprisals.

There* a trace of bitterness in some of the reactions heard now.

We paid millions of taxpay-i era dollar* to get these coun-; tries back on their feet, and then shut the door in our face,! says Gov. Carl Sanders of Georgia, a .state big in poultry production.

Preaident Thomas Moses of Inveatori, Dlverslfled Service* of MlnnewwUs said the Common Market Is just the old tariff union with a high-sounding name. They wlD have to be persuaded to let their tariffs down; they wont do It otherwise.

However, li the first step to

ward reviving trade a Dallas banker says:

We were expecting too much. Those countries arent going to abandon their nationalism overnight, especially not France, which hss just spent Seven years fighting a nationalistic war in Algeria.

President Lynn Townsend of Chrysler Corp. said: The Common Market will eventually come Into real being. I expect to see freer and freer tradei i The internationalization ot I commerce, both a.s to direct ex-j ports and to overseas plant, is, the predominant trend today, I be ssdd.

Others agree that American buslnees should continue in that direction, whether trade hits smooth sailing or rough. There was little support for a return to the blgb-tarlff thinking of the past.

VOA Built By Texas ^Giants

(From The Dally Reflector (Feb. 7. IM53)

By IIKNRY HOWARD Reflector Staff V\ riter

Two Texas giants combined brain and brawn to handle construction and installation of the $26 million Voice of America station built in a triangle surrounding Greenville Stature of the job required services of one of the nations largest construction firms and specialized technical know-how of an equally prominent electronics company Alpha of Texas. Inc., Dallas-based construction arm of huge ('ollins Radio, and Continental Electronics Systems. Inc., also a Dallas firm and subsidiary of

Ling-Temco-Vought. formed the major contractor.

Chartered for the job was a special corporation called Alpha-Continental Joint Venture. The companies were awarded the contract on a low-bid of $12,173.000.

Additions to the contract after the companies moved into the Greenville area in January of 1%1 boosted total contract price by about $f>00,000 There were 166 minor and major revisions during the two-year construction phase.

Unique features accompanied the joint venture corporation. The special corporation purchased several vehicles for use during the VOA project alone

After the bulk of the work was done, the corporation sold the cars and truckseach labeled Alpha-Continental.

Special checks and forms were printed bearing the name of the joint venture. Various other examples of specializing could be cited.

Hired Sub-Contractors Administrative duties constituted a considerable share of Alpha-Continental duties. In all. the corporation hired 24 subcontractors to handle specific parts of the work. Special jobs by "subs included well-drilling, tower-erection and other projects for specialists.

Clearance of the near-6,000 acres for the three-site radio

project was handled under a contract let separately by the government.

In the main, Alpha-Continental sent only specialized supervisory personnel to the Greenville area. These specialists sought out and hired workers such as laborers, carpenters, electricians and iron workers. Subcontractors, some of them from distant points, also hired the bulk of their work forces from the Tar Heel area.

The major contractors also brought with them a sizeable bankroll and patronized local vendors for many construction materials.

For example, the contractors purchased ready-mixed con

crete from local suppliers. For foundations and structural work on the three main buildings and for footings to support a total of 412 steel towers, the contractors needed about 36,000 cubic yards of concrete.

Business firms in Greenville which have figured into the two-year construction project include White Concrete, Quality Oil, White Chevrolet. Home Builders Supply and Sumrell Construction Co

With a considerable number of subcontractors at work, Alpha-Continental personnel on the site assumed the role of overall construction supervisors and directors.

They heard reports from

VGAs own supervisory staff and redirected notices for adjustments to the proper contractor or ironed out wrinkles themselves.

The focal point of Alphas mission in the venture was construction of the various heavy buildings and fixtures called for in specifications based on more than 1,400 different blueprints.

Continentals prime task in the project included installation of powerful transmitters its company built for the government during the 1950s. Its supervisory staff directed alignment processes for transmitters totaling at peak power 4.8 million watts. That wattage

tabs the Greenville station as one of the worlds most powerful radio broadcasting installations.

Construction of headquarters buildings, six of them, by the contractors began Dec. 10, 1960. 'The contract called for buildings at each site for VOA personnel.

Two buildings were erected at each site, one for Alpha-Continental and one for VOA. Both the contractors and the government staffers set up project headquarters at Site C, the receiving station north of Bell Arthur and just south of NC Highway 43

In the white frame headquarters building at Site C the contractors pursued administrative and supervisor

tasks involved in the spread-out project. Simultaneously, they directed construction of the receiver station and the two huge transmitter sitesSite two huge transmitter sitesSite A at Ueggetts Crossroads and Site B, 18 miles to the south at .Shelmerdine.

By Feb. 15. Alpha-Continental closed its offices, packed its gear remaining on site and headed back to Texas.

The special corporationits task completethen ceased to exist. In its wake were the most powerful link in VGAs worldwide broadcast chain, geared to send the Voice of America in 37 different languages to the corners of the earth.

VOICE OF AMERICA. . .a $26 million facUity was and 1962. It has been beaming broadcasts around the

The Daily Renector, Greenville. N.C.Sunday. October . H74-II-5Dentistry Was Once ^Torture ^

By CAROL B. TVER Reflector Staff Writer *

Dr. M. B. Massey remembers when dentistry was torture endured by the patient for a moment, so hed have relief from sustained pain. Tooth ache was commonvery common and pulling usually was the only remedy.

Im glad I didnt start practicing earlier than I did. Dr. Massey said. By 1925 there were some means of alleviating pain while you did the dental work, though there were no antibiotics that would have been useful in clearing up the abscesses we saw every day.

At Emory, we were probably one of the first classes taught about the nerves that go to each *area of the mouth and how to anesthetize each. I learned those charts upside down, backwards, and sideways, because 1 never could stand to hurt anybody.

A native of Princeton, Dr Massey had had two years of medical training when World War I drew him into the medical corps and took him to France. After I got back, I felt Id be an old man before I could become a doctor, so I decided to go into dentistry, since I could be finished by the time I was 26.

A Baseball Player

Dr. Masseys acquaintance with Greenville began during his college years. Friends remembered his fine ball playing on the regiments team and invited him here to play with the towns thriving professional baseball team. He made enough money each summer to pay for the following years schooling, he said. It was here he met Mrs. Massey, then Miss Gertrude Taft.

Before hed graduated from Emory University in Atlanta in 1925. he had made arrangements with Dr. Paul Fitzgerald to take over his practice here. When I walked into this office, he said, looking around the triangular-shaped space at the front of the State Bank Building at Five Points here. I thought, Goodness, itll be a long time till Im sixty. I wonder if Ill make it thal long.

Dr. Massey maintains his office and does limited work now, though hes been pretty much retired since he had cataract operations several years ago.

F'arlier Dentists Recalled

Besides Dr. Fitzgerald, who quit dentistry to give the insurance business a try. Dr. and Mrs. Massey recalled several other dentists who practiced here before Dr. Massey. Judge Dink James and Mrs. Luther Moore provided additional facts.

There was Dr. John G. James, Judge James grandfather. Dentistry was pretty poor business then, Judge James said, so he ran a hotel, also, located where The Dally Reflector office is now. Then later when his boys were older, the family ran a horse sales business, in addition to his grinding molars. In the warm months, hed pack up his forceps and his foot pedal-operated

grinding machine and travel to Hertford and Windsor and other towns in the area to ply his profession.

There was Dr. B. McKay Johnson, a very pleasant man, Judge James went on. And Dr. Alfred Schultz, a bachelor and a very friendly man who was the brother of Mrs. Luther Bowling. Dr. Robert L. Carr lived at the comer of Pitt and Fourth and was a nice fellow. Dr. Ebron P. Spence practiced a while, but later went into the floristry business full-time in Morehead City, after he lost his left hand in a hunting accident.

Dr. David Lillington James was the son of Dr. John G. James. He was a great one for participation in fraternal orders and for public speaking. An alumnus of the University of Pennsylvania, he was married to Margaret Star Cherry, daughter of Tillman Cherry, a prominent planter of the Civil War period

Would Pay If It Hurt

Doctors did quite a bit of dentistry back then, too, Dr. Massey said. He recalled a story Dr. Jenness Morrill of Falkland told at a Medical-Dental Society meeting many years ago.

I was on my way ot into the country to see a patient when I met this old man, Dr. Morrill said. '

Hey, Doc, he said, I was just coming to see you. Ive got a tooth thats killing me. Well, climb up in the buggy and let me see it, I said. Yep, that molar needs to come out, I said, but I hate to do it out here because I know its gonna hurt.

to sleep to eliminate pain. I especailly like to use this with children, because I just couldnt stand to hurt them.

the military.

Things changed for dentists after the New Deal, Dr. Massey said. People started going to the dentist because they coould afford to. Suddenly there were more patients than there were hours in the day and appointments came into being.

During World War II, Dr. Massey was also quite busy, as most dentisbiere away serving

When there began to be talk about general anesthesias being dangerous, he said he started letting first Dr. Tom Watson and then Dr. Frederick Harr, who took over Dr. Watsons office, do his anesthetizing. Theyd call and say the child would be under in about two minutes. Id grab my sterilized instruments and bound up the stairs several at a time to remove the offending tooth.

Dentists way back used copper

to fill teeth. Dr. Massey said, but he used amalgam like dentists do today, though he had to mix it himself in a mortar with a pestle. He also made his own novocaine for many years.

Long a champion golfer. Dr. Massey is quite physically fit even today and he remains active in Jariris Memorial United Methodist Church. He and Mrs. Massey have a daughter, Mrs. O. W. Dudley of Richmond, Va. and only recently lost a son, M. B. Massey Jr. They have five grandchildren.

TEETH CARVED FROM BONE . . . are shown by Dr. Massey. He made them as part of a dental project, having previously learned to make

them in soap and plaster and other materials before the bone ones were tackled.

DR. MASSEY . . . greets a patient in the office where he will have practiced 50 years next February. Its at the very

front of the State Bank Building here. (Reflector Photo By Carol B. Tyer)

Go ahead. Doc, the old fellow said. I cant wait till you get back to townits killin me.

Okay, Ill tell you what, I said. If it hurts when I pull it, you can pay me a dollar. If not, you wont have to pay me anything.

I pulled and I tugged, and I practically turned the bugg>' over getting that tooth out. When it was over, I puffed, Did it hurt?

Naw, sir. Doc, didnt hurt a bit, he said. I dont know how you did it. but it didnt hurt a bit.

Practicing . 1 remember one time, Dr. Massey recalled from his own practice, a man came in with a mouthful of bad teeth. (Teeth are so much better today than they used to be .) He had one that was really giving him a fit. I hadnt been practicing long, and Id been sitting around all day. (People didnt have money for extras like dental care back then, and only came to us in times of crisis.) I took all the time in the world and anesthetized that tooth just right ; then I popped it out. Oh. that feels so much better. Dr. Massey, he said. Theres another one over here. Id pulled four teeth before we were through, with him raving about how little it hurt and my getting a lot of good practice at anesthetizing.

Later I went off and studied general anesthesia. Then Id give nitrous oxide and put people

Early Rivalries In Athletics

BvCHIPI AMBKTH Reflector Sports Writer Since the turn of the century Greenvilles high school athletic programs have produced some outstanding teams in various sports and since the early twenties rarely have any Greenville teams failed to come up a winner Only in the last few years has Greenville fallen on hard times as far as winning or losing is concerned When basketball was just catching hold as a popular sport. Greenville High School's team posted a 9-3 season scoring a total of 350 points in their 12 games. They played teams from Red Oak. Washington. Elizabeth City. Wilson and Snow Hill. The Washington-Greenville rivalry-had its beginnings then and has continued fiercely since.

The girls team that year went 4-1 losing only to the Belhaven lassies by 22-14 In 1923. Greenville Highs football team won five of nine games and tied three times The basketball team had a good season also. 9-5. It suffered a 67-11 loss to Raleigh near the end of the year in the poorest showing of the year The athletic programs continued to grow through the 20s and into the 30's up until the Second Warld War when the numbers of boys dwindled and interests went elsewhere. After the war. high school athletics in Greenville grew at a more rapid rate than they had earlier.

When one looks at the history of athletics in the Greenville school system. one man has to be considered to have given more time to the development of sports that anyone. Boley Farley coached at GHS and later Rose High for close to 30 years directing football, basketball, golf, baseball and anything else they had When I came here (1935) we had representative teams in all; in fact we won some championships in football and basketball. I think we had the best teams right after the war After the war for about four or five years we had outstanding basketball teams and some real good football teams.

Actually that was one of the better periods as far as winning is concerned. Farley said. In the late forties

Farley had come to Greenville in 35 to play baseball. Greenville had a semi-pro type team for several years in the midthirties attracting players from as far away as Utah.

Rivalries formed during those years still are just as strong. When I came here, of course, the big rivalries were with Kinston and Washington. And this league they were in for many years, the 3-A league, it was. they were big rivals all over here.

For many years. Greenville won the basketball championship pretty regularly. Then Kinston came in and we had awful close years with them. I can recall for several years it was either Greenville or Kinston that won the basketball championship. That went on for a number of years.

Regan Coaching in 35 From 1935 to about 1950. said Farley, the Greenville teams dominated the basketball scene. I recall that after I came out of the Army, and I got out in . . . 1945. I came home in October and started coaching and we had a real good football team that year. Farleys team lost the first but won the next nine games.

' The 1946 team went 7-3-1 with players like Spooky Morgan. J.T. Williams and Jack Whichard. The 47 season was a turn-around as the team went 3-7 We had a dip in the 50s ... we had the ups and downs like most high school teams.

Farley estimates he coached basketball at least 20 years never having losing season. We were either in it. he said. Or we were right near the top. Only in the last ten years has the basketball program fallen off.

I remember one of the best football teams we had I believe was along 45 or 46 and some of the boys that played on that team are still living here. J. B. Kitrell lives here ... he played fullback; there were two Briley boys that played; Earl Kittrell played; J. T. Williams.

One of the best basketball teams GHS had was made up of Billy Batchelor. Jimmy Futrell, Billy Harrington. Williams, Ed Williams and Jack Whichard. That was about 1946 The football teams used aBOLEY FARLEY

single wing then and that formation was used for several years. We used double wing some but mostly single wing.

After the war. night football came on strong in Greenville enabling more people to come out to the games. Playing at night gave interest to it because people could come out and see it.

It used to be that high school teams played in the afternoon and thered be maybe 150 to 200 people. When they got to playing at night, they had pretty good crowds. When night ball started the high school first played at Guy Smith Stadium which was just about ten years old in 1947. Farley noted that with more people attending the games, there were higher gate receipts giving the program a boost.

Night football started about 1937 but did not catch on until after the war. The games were played on the field behind Third Street school and then later at Guy Smith. They had the athletic field back of it (Third St. School) and in fact thats where they played football and baseball too. ^

Ek]uipment was hard to come by. Players would swap helmets as the school could only afford enough to scrimmage in. With bigger crowds the added money enabled the school to increase its supply of equipment for all sports.

Rivalries Stronger

Farley said that in the earlier

years, the rivalries between Greenville and other schools were stronger. 1 believe that we had more natural rivalries back then. The thing is that the towns have gotten larger and there are more schools. It seems to me that back in those days you had. I wont say a better but it was a very keen rivalry.

You had towns like Washington close by and Kinston and they didnt have TV and a lot of things you have now. That was the big thing-high school athletics; a whole lot bigger then . . . more people, a bigger percentage of people were interested in it than they are now.

When other sports were introduced, such as swimming, golf and tennis it took some time to adjust to them but they eventually caught hold. Track was a sport that was introduced after the War years. Farleys teams had to go as far as Raleigh, Greensboro and High Point to find competition, being the only track team in the area. The high school had a track which helped the sport grow and other schools soon picked it up.

Wrestling teams had to go as , far as Norfolk, Va. for matches. Traveling long ways is still with us; the Rose swimmers quite frequently have to travel to Raleigh, Chapel Hill and Greensboro for matches. Greenville was the first team, said Farley, in Eastern North Carolina to have a wrestling team.

Things that helped not only the Greenville sports programs but other schools as well were development of better facilities, better playing fields and gymnasiums. Most every school now has better equipment and gyms and they are in a whole lot better shape to play in. Farley said.

When I came to Greenville in 1935, basketball was very poor; the coaching was poor. Of course anybody coached and they didnt know what they were doing and as a consequence, basketball didnt amount to much. But it came along fast.

When teams wanted to play basketball before there was a gym in Greenville, they would mark off a court in a warehouse. The rafters created a small problem shooting over but it was the best place available at the

time. When I came to Greenville. the old gym at the high school . . . was one of the best gymns in Eastern North Carolina. 35 or 36.

Another problem frequently encountered was a means of transportation. With few people having access to cars, the coaches had to recruit people or companies to carry a load of players to a game.

At first, Farley said, he was the only coach the high school had. Gradually, the system hired another, then two and now there are ) coaches for every sport and some sports have three or four coaches. All these things, equipment, facilities, coaching have improved not only in the high school but everywhere, in college too.

Until recently the college had little influence on high school athletics. The high school attracted the main interest but as athletics at East Carolina grew the scene shifted.

During the fifties, the high school continued its winning ways taking the conference championship in 1955. The football team was 6-2-1 that year. In 1958, Rose High was dedicated giving another big boost to the whole program. Golf had been introduced around 1953 and wrestling made its way into the Rose Annual The Tau in 57.

In 1960, the Phantons, as they were called, had a chance to claim the conference football crown but were turned back by Kinston. 13-7, ending their hopes after compiling a 7-4 record. In 1965 they lost to Tarboro in the finals of the Eastern CTiam-pionship game.

The baseball team took conference titles in 1969 and 1970 and last years football team went into the playoffs.

After a downswing during the sixties, the G. Rose High teams are slowly regaining their winning ways of the post war years. The teams and the style of play have come a long way since 1920 and that is very evident.

temporaries. Edited by Hugh Talmage Lefler, UNC Professor of History. University of North Carolina Press, 1948).

1831-1832 Many cruel and unusual punishments were inflicted on criminals h^entury or so ago. Some of the most prevalent were whipping, ducking, stocks and pillories, branding and cutting off ears. The idea of vengeance seems to have dominated the whole system of criminal procedure. About the second quarter of the nineteenth century many humanitarian rbforms were made in North Carolina and elsewhere in this country. The criminal code was ameliorated, though it was still far from humane. The following act illustrates the nature of punishments in use and the kind of reforms which were made.

Sectionalism

In Early N.C.

AN ACT TO ABOLISH THE PUNISHMENT OF CUTTING OFF EARS That it shall not be lawful hereafter to inflict the punishment of cutting off the ears, but the same is hereby abolished; any law or usage to the contrary notwithstanding: Provided, that in all cases where by the existing laws the cutting off an ear or ears is prescribed, or part of the prescribed punishment, the offender on conviction shall in lieu thereof be sentenced to receive one or more public whippings, not less than thirty-nine lashes on his bare back: And provided also, that this act shall not extend to the punishment of any perjury and subornation of perjury, committed upon the trial of any capital offence.Laws, 1931-32, Chap. XII, p. 10.

reason correctly, to calculate accurately and with a reasonable amount of speed, and power to express the work done in true and accurate statements.

(From North Carolina History Told By Contemporaries. Edited by Hugh Talmage Lefler, UNC Professor of History. University of North Carolina Press. 1948).

Sectionalism was apparent in North Carolina at an early date. When the state adopted the Constitution of 1776, most of its population lived in the East, and that section, dominated by the slaveholding aristocracy, controlled the government. In the nineteenth century there was a rapid expansion of population west of Raleigh. Accordingly western leaders began to clamor for constitutional changes which would give their section equitable power in the legislature.

DEBATE ON THE CONVENTION QUESTION IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.

DECEMBER 18.1821 What, Mr. M. asked, was the situation of things at the time when our present Constitution was formed? The Eastern part of the State was almost the only part which was inhabited. The West had but few settlers. But our lands are now rising in value, and our population is every day increasing, while the Eastern part of the State remains much the same. Take us, said he, poor as we are, and w here is the boasted superiority of the East? . . .

Mr. M. said, he had made a few calculations on this subject, which he would offer to the committee. . . .

The total amount of population (including slaves and free persons of colour) is 638,829. The whole Federal population of the State is 556,839. The Federal population of the 27 Western Counties is .305,015, which . . . entitles them to 102 members instead of 81, which they now send. The Federal population of the 34 Eastern Counties is 234,100. which entitles her to 78

members only, instead of 102. which she now sends. . . .

Go the the next principle of representation; that of free white population and taxation. The taxation of the whole State (exclusive of clerks and auctioneers) is $65,735.60 Taxes of the Western counties are $31.184.09; of the Eastern. $32.203.41; of Wake County, $2.348.07. Estimating $353 for each member of the Western counties will send 88; the Eastern 91; and Wake, 6.

Go to the next branch of the principle, that of free white population, to which the op-posers of these resolutions have the greatest objection, and the Western part of the State, will be entitled to 31 more members than she has at present, and the Eastern part to 34 less

For the total white population of the State is 419,200. The Western counties have 253,235, which . . . will give her 112 members. The Eastern counties have 154.014, which will give to them 68 members. The white population of Wake, being 11,951. gives to her 5 members.

Then compound the representation of the Federal population. free white population and taxation, and the Western counties are entitled to 101 members. 20 more than at present, and the Eastern counties will be entitled to 79 members. 23 less than at present. So that ... the West evidently labor under im^rtanl grievances. ^

Wealth fattens upon the necessity of poverty; it can bribe; it can corrupt; and whenever it shall* have a predominant weight in our government, we may bid farewell to the boasted freedom of our Republic, and ignominously submit to the yoke of Aristocratic Slavery. . . .

It will be to the East, if we are ever invaded. It may be expected your protection will not be found in your negroes; it will be found in yourselves, or in the strength of the West.Raleigh Register. February 1, 1822

Gorham Family Ties Go Back To 18th Century

The Daily Renector, Greenville. N.C.

Sunday. October 6. If7411-7

.ffT VfW-'

By ROSAME TROTMAN Reflector Womans Editor

Service to Pitt County and North Carolina were two of the outjijanding attributes of early settler. Col. James Gorham.

The genealogy of The Gorhams of North Carolina was printed in The New England Historical and Genealogical Register. In the compilation of this article much information has been derived from the records found in two family Bibles.

The first of these Bibles was the family Bible of Dr. John Churchill Gorham of Pitt County and the other was the family Bible of Maj. Augustus Marion Lewis, who married Sarah Matilda Gorham, daughter of Dr John Churchill Gorham.

The two Bibles are now in the possession of the Society of Mayflower Descendants in the State of North Carolina, having been presented by Mrs. Frances Jane Lewis Bassett, daughter of Mrs. Sarah Matilda Gorham Lewis.

A few other records have been found in another family Bible and a great amount of data has been secured from living members of the Gorham family. The destruction by fire of the public records of Pitt County prior to 1856 has made it impossible to present a complete

history of the early Gorham families of that part of the state.

The founder of the North Carolina branch iftf the New England Gorhams was Col. James Gorham, a great great great grandson of Capt. John and Desire Howland Gorham, from whom he was descended through James.

Pitt Countys Col. Gorham was baptized at Barnstable, Mass., on Aug. 4, 1745. By the 1751 will of his father, Capt. Issac Gorham. James, who was about eight years old, was to receive the family homestead in Barnstable, Mass., when he became of age, subject to the life interest of his mother, Mrs. Mary Cobb Gorham. The house in Barnstable was built about 1700.

Col. Gorhams first wife was Mary Baker of Massachusetts, who died before he migrated to North Carolina. His second marriage about 1792 was to Mrs. Sarah Davis McClure of North Carolina. Her father was James Davis of New Bern, who was known as the father of printing in North Carolina, having served 33 years as public printer there and having filled many Colonial, state and town offices during his life

In the Revolutionary War, James Gorham was active in North Carolina, both in military and in civil positions. In 1775, he

was chairman of the Committee of Safety of Pitt County and served on the committee for the relief of the town of Boston, Mass., and the committee appointed by Congress for the purchase of firearms. He was member of the Provincial Congress at New Bern and at Hillsboro.

In the same year Congress appointed him major and he served during the Revolutionary War, attaining the rank of colonel. He was a member of the Great Congress in Halifax County, in 1776, and participated in framing the constitution of the state. He was appointed to various other committees and from 1778-1782, he was a member of the North Carolina Legislature.

After the war. Col. Gorham engaged in the shipping business at New Bern, his vessels sailing between England, Nassau and the ports of North Carolina, especially Washington. He exported lumber and pine products and imported general merchandise. He built two ships of native material in eastern North Carolina and used them in his trade.

At the time of the troubles with France, in the administration of

President John Adams, some of his vessels were captured by French privateers.

Col. Gorham succeeded in acquiring considerable wealth and owned large tracts of land and a number of slaves.

In his will dated Dec. 24, 1804, Cel. Gorham directed That at the death of my mother now living in Barnstable, Mass., that my executors sell my property and there and apply the money to the use of my children. He named his wife, Sarah, and his children, John Churchill, Edwin. Penelope and Franklyn Gorham and his appointed executors were William Gorham and his son. Franklyn.

Col. Gorham and his wife are buried at Strawberry Hill, his old farm home on the Tar River.

Dr. Sellers Crisp of Greenville is the fifth generation of Col Gorham. Dr. Crisps father. Dr Sellers Mark Crisp was the son of Annie Gorham and Sellers Mark Crisp, who married in Edgecombe County May 27. 1891.

Mrs. Annie Gorham Crisp was the daughter of Josephine George Cherry and Henry Wise Gorham, Col. Gorhams grandson.

In addition to the first Dr.

Sellers Mark Crisp, other children of the Sellers and Annie Gorham Crisp include:

Mrs. Lillian Gorham Crisp Lawrence, who now lives in Falkland; Henry Gorham; Lucy Cherry Crisp of Falkland; Louis Samuel; George Bennet; and Richard Hodges of Greenville.

It was interesting to me to read from the register about the Gorhams of North Carolina when I considered names for my children, said Mrs. Sellers Crisp

I found Mary Louise among the names of the descendants of the Gorhams. 1 found the name Mary had appeared frequently as did the name Louise. Our eldest daughter is named Mary Ix)uise.

Other names I liked were Desire Howland, eldest daughter of John Howland, the Pilgrim, who came to New England in the Mayflower in 1620, and John Churchill Gorham, who was a Pitt County physician.

A pine chest purchased in Rocky Mount by Sellers aunt. Miss Lucy Cherry Crisp, was given to us several months ago. The chest, purchased before we were married, contains a secret compartment with papers about the Gorham family, she stated

A PINE CHEST. . .given to Dr. and Mrs. Sellers Crisp contained papers

concerning the Gorham family.

UNC Had Political

Problems

FOUNDING THE UNIVERSITY OF

NORTH CAROLINA . The University of North Carolina was the second state university to be chartered in the South and the first to open its doors to students. Its origin may be traced to section 41 of the State Constitution of 1776, which declared that all useful learning shall be duly encouraged, and promoted in one or more universities. Thirteen years elapsed before the legislature carried out this mandate. During the Revolution no serious effort was made to establish a university, and after the war political considerations caused delay. Most of the/Federalists were in favor of a university; most of the Anti-Federalists were opposed. In fact, the Anti-Federalist legislature of 1784 definitely refused to establish a university. 'The Federalists, led by William R. Davie, kept up the fight, and in 1789 the General Assembly enacted a measure chartering the University of North Carolina. This act, which was ratified December 11, was carried through by the same men who had just procured the ratification of the Federal Constitution. Anti-Federalists continued their opposition, attacking the new institution because of its efforts to give direction to the minds of students on political subjects, favorable to a high-toned aristocratic government.

'The first serious problem to confront the University was that of finance. The legislature had chartered the institution, but, had failed to make any appropriations for its support. Accordingly, the trustees had to depend on gifts, fees, arrears due the state, and escheated property. A number of donations were made by individuals, the largest being 20,000 acres by Benjamin Smith, 13,000 acres by Charles Gerrard, and $1,025 in cash by Thomas Person. Many smaller donations were made. Every person who subscribed ten pounds towards the University, to be paid within five years, was entitled to have one student educated at the University free from any expense of tuition Another problem was the location of the University. The charter provided for the fixing on and purchasing a healthy and convenient situation, which shall not be situate within five miles of the permanent seat of government, or any of the places of holding the courts of law or equity. After consideration of many places, a committee headed by WiUiam R. Davie, selected New Hq^ Chapel, now Chapel Hin, as the site for the

University. This place was twelve miles from Hillsboro. It was about the geographical center of the state, where the most important roads running north and south and east and west intersected. The name Chapel Hill is found in the report of the trustees, November, 1792, and a contemporary account gives the following description: The seat of the University is on the summit of a very high ridge. . . The ridge appears to commence about half a mile directly east of the building, where it rises abruptly several hundred feet. This peak is called Point Prospect. The flat country spreads out below the ocean, giving an immense hemisphere in which the eye seem lost in the extent of space.

The cornerstone of the Old East Building was laid in 1793, and the University was formally opened, January 15, 1795. The first student was Hinton James, of Wilmington, who appeared on the Hill February 12.

The trustees were given authority to appoint a president of the University, and professors and tutors, whom they may remove for misbehaviour, inability, or neglect of duty. They could make all such laws and regulations for the government of the University and preservation of order and good morals therein as are usually made by such seminaries, and as to them may appear necessary: Provided, the same are not contrary to the inalienable liberty of a citizen or to the laws of the State. The power of conferring degrees was given to the Faculty, but the trustees must concur.

No president was chosen for the University. Instead there was a presiding professor, who occupied the presidents house and who was responsible for all the teaching. He was called Professor of Humanity and received a salary of $300 a year and two-thirds of the tuition money. Dr. David Kerr was the first presiding professor. The number of students reached forty-one by the close of the first term, and during the second term they rose to nearly one hundred. So it became necessary to employ a tutor in Mathemacs. Charles Wilson Harris was chosen.

Dr. Joseph Caldwell, for some years a presiding professor, was the first president of the University of North Carolina, being chosen for that position in 1804.

In December, 1796, the Institution was divided into two branches. called The Preparatory School and "The Professorships of the University.'

They Shaped Past, Present And FutureThese Were Pitt County Builders

By CARL L. TVER R^nector SUff Writer

In compiling information for a special edition in honor of Greenvilles bicentennial one cannot overlook the people that have stood out over the vears who either aided in the development of Pitt County or made themselves known outside the county and North Carolina and shed a favorable light on their home grounds.

The brief biographical sketches presented here give an inkling of the type of individuals who have been associated with Greenville and Pitt County since the early days of this country. Their involvement in the formation of the state and country is apparent in these sketches.

The task of picking and choosing who should and shouldnt be included in this section was a major one, and no doubt, there are many others who could have been included.

\\. H. RAGSDALE

In the field of education in Pitt County, W.H. Ragsdale is often mentioned as a force that led to the upgrading of the Pitt County school system. in the early 1900s.

Born in 1855, Ragsdale graduated from Wake Forest College with distinction.

He taught for a short period in Scotland Neck, but soon came to Greenville to work with a private school.

WTiile working with the private school, he was elected Superintendent of Public Instruction in Pitt County. At that time the position was not a fulltime one.

He worked with both jobs until the Greenville Graded Schools were established in 1903. From then on he worked entirely with the county schools.

In 1899, 2,975 students were enrolled in the county school system, while in 1912, after Ragsdale took over the superintendents job, the enrollment had risen to 5,665

In 1899 the value of school property was $7,540, while in 1912 this figure had risen to 185,000

Ragsdale was involved in the shaping of the East Carolina Training School by offering advice based on his knowledge of public instruction.

One of his greatest goals was to upgrade the quality of the county teachers, and the East Carolina Training School was part of that goal.

WILLIAM BLOUNT

In 1786 when a part of Craven County was added to Pitt County. William Blount became a citizen of Pitt.

William Blount was a member of the House of Commons from Craven County in 1780; a member of the Continental Congress in 1782-83; member of the House of Commons in 1783-84; a member of the Continental Congress in 1786-87 and was appointed by Gov. Richard Caswell as his substitute to the convention at Philadelphia in 1787 that formed the federal constitution.

He was also a member of the state senate as a representative of Pitt County in 1788-89.

In 1790, President Washington appointed him Governor of the territory south of the Ohio territory when this land was organized. Upon the admission of Tennessee as a state, he was one of the first two U.S. Senators to represent that state.

He was expelled from the U S. Senate on Sept. 8, 1798 for alleged instigation of the Creek and Cherokee Indians to assist the British in conquering Spanish land near the U.S.; he was elected a member of the Tennessee Senate and made president of that body while the U5. Senate impeached him.

He died in Knoxville, Tenn., on March 10, 1810 at the age of 56.

RICHARD EVANS Richard Evans was responsible for introducing a bill in the 1771 Assembly which created the town of Martinborough, later known as Greenville.

The town of Martinborough was laid off on land owned by Evans He died in 1784 or 85

SALUE 8. COTTEN Of the many women who have established themselves in Pitt County as outstanding citizens, none was better known in the late 180QS and early 1900s than Sallie Southall Gotten, wife of Robert Randolph Gotten.

Today, older residents of Pitt County probably best remember \

Mrs. Cotten through their old homestead, known as Cot-tendale, located a few miles from the crossroads known as Bruce on Highway 43.

The women of Pitt County probably best remember Mrs. Cotten for her activities in womens organizations in the state and nation.

Bom in Laurenceville, Va.. she came to the Tar Heel State at an early age.

Educated at the Wesleyan Female College in Murfreesboro. she also attended the Greensboro Female College and became a teenage school teacher during the Civil War.

She met her future husband during the Civil War, and they were married when the war ended. Randolph Cotten started a mercantile business in Tar-boro.

Here their first child was bom, Agnes, the late Mrs. Julian Timberlake of Raleigh.

After starting his business in Tarboro, Cotten bought two plantations in Pitt County, South wood and Cottendale.

From Tarboro he moved the family to Southwood. Because of the need to work more with a business in Wilson, the Cotten family moved there, then settled in the community of Falkland, where still another business.was established.

Finally, they settled at Cottendale, where Mrs. Cotten raised her family until the children moved away and she began a career in womens organizations that would make her well known.

In 1908 when the youngest daughter moved from home, Mrs. Cotten had already published numerous poems and articles and one book, along with having been appointed as lady manager from North Carolina for the Chicago Worlds Fair.

She was also lady manager for the Atlanta and Charleston expositions and prior to the 150th exposition in Philadelphia, she was voted one of the North Carolinas four women outstanding in art, literature, music and civics.

Under her guidance, the Womens Federation was able to establish a state library commission and a beginning of traveling libraries.

She was selected in 1897 to represent North Carolina in a Congress of Mothers held in Washington, D.C.

She served on the Congress for 15 years and was the first corresponding secretary for the National Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teacher Association.

She has had the honor of having a liberty freighter named for her, and her son, a former captain in the Navy had a destroyer named after him.

Mrs. Cotten died in 1929, a year after the death of her husband, and she was buried in Greenville.

JAMES L. FLEMING

Credited with introducing the bill in the 1906 Legislature which established the East Carolina Training School is James Lawson Fleming.

In his early life he was a student of W.H. Ragsdale at the Greenville Academy who prepared him for Wake Forest College, where he received his degree.

After graduation from College he taught for a year then read law with the firm of Latham and Skinner of Greenville. He was admitted to the bar in 1892.

He was elected as mayor of Greenville soon after locating here and in 1904 began a term in the North Carolina Senate. He was re-elected in 1906.

Education was a major issue which Fleming engaged in while serving in the Assembly.

He agreed to introduce a bill in 1906 which would establish a training school in the eastern part of the state.

The fight to get the bill passed was a tough one, but due to Senator Flemings guidance it was approved in 1907.

'Two years later, one month after the first building of the school were completed, he was killed in an automobile accident, on Nov. 5, 1909.

JOHN SIMPSON

An early historical account of Pitt County would not be complete without some mention of the man responsible for the establishment of the county, John Simpson.

Simpson is credited with the introduction of a bill in the lower house of the General Assembly sometime after 1760 which severed a section of land from Beaufort County that was to be called Pitt County.

He came to Beaufort County after the middle of the 18th century with a colony of New Englanders and was commissioned a lieutenant in Capt. John Hardees company in the regiment of Col. Robert Palmer by Governor Dobbs in 1757.

He was elected to the lower house of the Assembly in 1760.

The residents of the section of Beaufort County later known as Pitt had petitioned the Assembly to set up a new county because of the vast size of Beaufort.

Simpson,' along with John Hardee, William Spier, George May and Isaac Buck were appointed commissioners of the new county and given the duties of erecting a courthouse, jail, pillory, stocks, etc.

These buildings were directed td be placed on a section of land owned by John Hardee, south of the Tar River near a house of worship known as Hardees Chapel.

This location was a few miles southeast of the present location of Greenville.

The patriots of North Carolina decided it was necessary for a convention to be held in New Bern on Aug. 25, 1774 independent of the existing royal government and Simpson and Eldward Salter were appointed to attend from Pitt County.

A second convention was held in 1775, but between these two meetings it was decided by the committee of safety of the county that supplies be collected and taken to Boston to aid the residents whose port was being blocked by the British. Simpson was appointed to a subcommittee of 24 to assist the vestry of St. Michaels Parish in Pitt to raise these supplies.

Simpson was among those attending the provincial congress of North Carolina at Hillsboro on Aug. 20, 1775. On Sept. 9, of that year he was placed in command of his old Pitt Regiment, of the N. C. Militia. He rose to the rank of brigadier-general and in 1782 was a member of the House of Commons.

He died on March 1,1788. He is buried on the southern side of the Tar River on the old Hardee place about five miles south of Greenville on the Washington highway.

GENERAL BRYAN GRIMES Bom on Nov. 2,1828 on a farm known as Grimesland was Bryan Grimes, the son of Bryan Grimes Sr. and Nancy Grist. Bryan Grimes Jr., was to become famous as a Confederate general.

He was educated at the Bingham School and the Univ. of North Carolina, graduating from UNC in 1848.

Soon after graduation his father gave him the farm known as Grimesland and he became a planter.

In 1860, he took a trip to Europe and returned to find the state debating secession.^ ^

traveled around the South after the bombardment of Fort Sumpter and returned to North Carolina to find himself a candidate for the state convention called by Gov. Ellis. As a member of the convention, he voted in favor of secession on May 20,1861 and a few days later resigned from the convention to accept an apointment as a major in the Fourth Regiment under Col. George B. Anderson, a West Point graduate.

He was the only officer to live through a battle on May 31, 1861 in Virginia out of a complement of 25 officers.

Grimes was promoted to the rank of colonel on June 19, 1862, and to brigadier general on June 5, 1864 with the date of rank being May 19 of that year.

He was associated with many Civil War battles, and three times had his horse shot out from under him.

While in Virginia Grimes was shocked to hear that Lee had surrendered and wanted to join General J. E. Johnston in North Carolina and continue to fight, but was persuaded not to do so by other Generals.

He lived in Raleigh in 1866 and -67 but returned to the Grimesland farm where he lived the life of a successful farmer until his death on August 14. 1880.

On that day he was returning from Washington, N.C. with the son of a friend and was assassinated from ambush as he crossed the Bear Creek. One shot cut a main artery and he died in a very short time.

A man was arrested for the murder, but was acquitted. The man later boasted of his deed and he was found hanging from the Washington bridge one morning in May 1888. He was lynched.

JOHN B. GRIMES

Often associated with the town of Grimesland in Pitt County is the family name of Grimes. One of the most distinguished members of the Grimes family was the son of the confederate General Bryan Grimes, John Bryan Grimes, bom in 1868.

John Bryan Grimes was bom in Raleigh but spent his life from infancy in Grimesland.

He is often associated with politics in Pitt County.

Grimes was educated in Raleigh and attended the Univ. of North Carolina. He was an aide-de-camp on the staff of Gov. Elias Carr with the rank of colonel.

Grimes has a long list of offices held associated with his accomplishments, and among them being a member of the State Board of Agriculture, president of the N.C. Tobacco Growers Association, and a member of the executive committee trustees of the Univ. of North Carolina.

He was elected to the office of Secretary of State in 1900 and was relected in 1904 and 1908.

HARRY SKINNER

Harry Skinner was bom on May 25, 1855 in Perquimans County.

He came from a family long associated with politics in North Carolina, dinner was educated in Kentucky, obtaining a law degree from the Univ. of Kentucky, graduating in 1875.

In August of that year he came to Greenville and was associated with another attorney, Maj. L. C. Latham.

He served as chairman of the county democratic executive committee for four years and the state executive committee for eight years.

Skinner served as a town commissioner for one year and was later appointed as an aide-de-camp to Governor Jarvis.

He was elected to the N.C. House of Representatives in 1890 supporting a platform on meeting reasonable demands of the farmers alliance.

He was also widely known as a political writer, having published articles on the farmers situation in the Progressive Farmer magazine.

One popular act introduced by Skinner in the Legislature was a bill prohibiting the dredging of oysters in Eastern North Carolina.

THOMAS J. JARVIS When the history of East Carolina University is written, it

would be difficult to compose without mention of Thomas Jordon Jarv^, better known as Governor Jarvis.

Born in Currituck County on January 18,1836, Jarvis entered Randolph-Macon College at the age of 19 and graduated in 1860.

At the beginning of the Civil War, Jarvis was teaching in Pasquotank County. He was commissioned a lieutenant of Company B, Eighth North Carolina Regiment in the Confederate army and was raised to the rank of captaih by the time the war ended.

After the war he opened a general merchandise store in Tyrrell County and read law in his spare time. In June 1867, he received his license to practice law.

That same year he was elected to the legislature from Tyrrell County, and in 1870 was selected as speaker of the house. He moved to Pitt County at the end of this legislature.

He was elected as a delegate from Pitt in 1875 to the Constitutional Convention.

In 1876 Jarvis was nominated as a candidate for lieutenant governor, while Zebulon B. Vance was running for governor. Both were elected. Jarvis advanced to the governors seat when Vance was elected to the U. S. Senate and served two years. He was elected to a full term in 1880.

During Jarvis term, funds for education were almost doubled.

Because of these extra funds the school term was lengthened, more schools were opened and teachers salaries were increased.

Other tasks undertaken during the Jarvis administration was the settling of the states debt, completion of the Western North Carolina railroad and construction of the Governors Mansion was begun. *

He was appointed by President Cleveland as U.S. Minister to Brazil after his term as governor expired and returned to Greenville four years later to practice law.

In 1894, Senator Vance died in office, and Jarvis was appointed to fill out his term by Governor Carr. He served less than a year at which time the Republican and Populist parties joined and elected candidates from their party.

He. along with William H. Ragsdale, wrote the bill which established the East Carolina Training School which was passed in 1907.

Jarvis died on June 17, 1915 and is buried in Cherry Hill Cemetery in Greenville.

ROBERT L. HUMBER Robert Lee Humber, bom in Greenville in 1898 and educated in the Winterville school system, is best known as an international lawyer.

bachelor of arts and law degree.

He served in the military during WWI as a second lieutenant and after the war entered Harvard where he received a graduate degree. He also attended New College in Oxford, England as a Rhodes Scholar, and the Univ. of Paris, doing research in the history of law.

He attained the reputation in Paris as an international lawyer and became a counselor for an American oil company, later being promoted to the position of chief executive officer in France for the company.

He returned to Greenville after Hitler invaded Paris, leaving Europe only 55 hours prior to the invasion.

Humber formally began a campaign for a world government on Dec. 28, 1940 that would prevent another world war.

On that day 39 friends met with him on Smith Island, in

Core Sound and presented to them his theory for world peace.

He read to them a resolution that presented his beliefs in the area of attaining world peace, this resolution was later passed by the North Carolina legislature and over half of the legislatures of the 48 states.

His crusade for world peace took him outside of the United States seeking support.

He represented the Southern Council on International Relations at the San Francisco conference which established the United Nations charter

Humber is also considered a main personality in the effort that led to the establishment of the Museum of Art in North Carolina.

Through his efforts $1 million worth of art was donated to the state through the Kress Foundation.

He died on Nov. 10, 1970 and is buried in Greenville.

Apollo whipped around the dark side of the moon for the first time at 1:13 p m. EDT and fired a six minute rocket blast that dropped it Into the desireu 70 by 194 mile high orbit

A tense, silent 35 minutes elapsed between the time that Keil A. .Armstrong, Edwin E Buzz .Aldrin and Michael Collins first disappeared behind

the moon and the time the;^ emerged to confirm they had attained orbit.

It was like perfect! enthused Armstrong.

A later check showed, however. that a minor leak had developed in one of the two nitrogen tanks used to control pneumatically the engine's fuel valves. Ground controllers called the problem insigifnicanl at this time. and pointed out there was backup system aboard.

' The 38-minute lung television show began on the spaceships second swing around the moon, and the shots clearly showed the large craters dotting the barren, brownish-gray surface.

The Sea of Fertility doesnt seem very fertile to me,

volunteered Collins, but added*

That sounds better for our purpo.ses than the Sea of Crises. ,

Amen to tliat. replied ground controller Bruce .Mc-Candless.

The television shots showed the puzzling nlles" that run along the lunar surface and which some scientists think may be dried up river betfs Others believe they were carved by volcanic activity.

Aldrin's scientific bent began showing up as he repwted:

In one of the larger craters on the back side, 1 noticed a small dark speck on the outer wall and I put the binoculars on it and I was able to .see an area maybe a quarter of a mile in diameter with a fairly fresh

looking dark colored pit. That

.seemed to be in contrast to all the other little craters that you see on the walls of other craters. It was quite remarkable

Concluding the spfcl.-uul.ir telecast, Collins signed off by saying: *As the moon sinks slowly in the west. Apollo II bids good day to you .

First indication the spaceship had attained lunar orbit came at 1:48 p.m. EDT in telemetry signals received at the Madrid. Spain, tracking station rather than through voice communication.

Ill-*The Daily Reflector, Greenville. N.C.Sunday, October 8, 174Land Annexations Mark Growth

By TOM BAINES Reflector Staff Writer

Land annexation through the years of Greenvilles development has served not only to increase the size of the corporate limits but to swell the population.

Created as Martinborough by an act of the N.C. General Assembly, the forerunner of present day Greenville actually began its existence on a 100-acre tract of land on the south side of Tar River, according to a volume of "The State Records of North Carolina.

The Assembly, meeting in New Bern in 1771, directed through official act that the property, owned by Richard F.vans and upon his consent in court, be laid out for a town and sectioned into half-acre lots by five appointed commissioners who were authorized to sell the parcels through a public drawing.

When Evans died before his official consent was secured, his widow, Susanna Evans, consented to the provisions of the 1771 act and documented her action as legal heir to the property by having the indenture registered on July 30, 772 with the Pitt County Register of Deeds.

In 1774, the original charter of 1771 was amended to recognize and approve the consent of Susanna Evans as fulfilling the provisions of the 1771 document The 1774 amendment also' validated all deeds executed by the commissioners since 1771 as they had proceeded with their duties without the formal consent of Evans to sell his property.

Martinborough became the county seat under the 1774 amendment.

Action of the citizens of Pitt County in seeking to have the name of Martinborough changed resulted in the state General Assembly passing an act on Jan. 6,1787 changing the name of the settlement to Greensville in honor of General Nathaniel Greene, Revolutionary War hero

The section of the amendment dealing with the name change was almost obscure as it was tacked on to the end of the legislation chartering the establishing the Pitt Academy.

The growth of Greensville, which later became known as Greenville with the accepted change in spelling through the years, was no doubt aided by the establishment and operation of a ferry at the present Greene Street bridge site in 1787. The ferry, authorized through an act of the l>egislature, opened an avenue of trade to the north of the city that had not been convenient in earlier years with the lack of accessibility.

Greenville was not recorded in the official census as an incorporated town until 1860 when the population was given as 828. The first U.S. census in 1790,

however, listed Pitt County with 8,275 residents while the state population totaled 393,751 and the national figure was set at 3,929,214

The countys population from 1800 to 1860 reflected slight, but steady, increases in all but one instance and Greenville apparently had comparable population growth. In 1800, Pitt had 9,084 while in 1810, the figure was 9,169, 10,001 in 1820, 12,093 in 1830,11,806 in 1840,13,397 in 1850, and 16,440 in 1860.

Population in Greenville fluctuated from the initial 1860 census and dropped to 601 persons in 1870. In 1870, Greenville was listed as the only incorporated town in Pitt County. Bethel was incorporated in 1873.

A series of corporate limit changes as recorded in the Session Laws of the General Assembly indicate that as the city took in new territory, the urban expansion as well as migration also reflected substantial increases in population.

Although details of annexations during the 1800s are sketchy, it is apparent that as trade and commercial improvements were made, aided greatly by the first bridge across the Tar River during the 1820s, the size of the town grew to new prominence. The 1830 chartering of a Female Academy signaled a profound interest in education.

The exact corporate boundaries of Greenville are depicted in the 1899 records of the General Assembly which defined the town limits as beginning on the Tar River where the branch on the east side of the town, empties into said river, and thence running up said branch to the point where it crosses the old road leading from Greenville to Greenes old mill pond; thence southwardly along the west side of said road to a point where 12th Street extended eastwardly would intersect said road; thence westwardly along north side of 12th Street to the western limit of the right-of-way of the Scotland Neck and Kinston branch of the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad; thence northwardly along the western limit of the said right-of-way to the northwestern side of Broad Street; thence along the northwestern side of said street to the line of E.A. Moyes land; thence with said Moyes line to the old plank road; thence a northeasterly course to the southwestern corner of the college property; thence along the western line of the college property to its northwestern comer; thence a straight line to the southeastern comer of the lands of R.J. Cobb and R.L. Davis, on the Greenville and Farmville road; thence north with their eastern line to Tar River; and thence down the river to the beginning.

Population in Greenville in 1880 was listed in the census as

British Traveler

Had Some F avorable Views

(From North Carolina History Told By Contemporaries. Edited by Hugh Talmage Lefler, UNC Professor of History. University of North Carolina Press, 1948).

Francis Hall, a British officer, arrived in the United States in March, 1816, and traveled through the northern and southern states. Except for his denunciation of the spirit of speculation in all professions of life and his strong condemnation of slavery, his views of the American people were favorable. He gives an interesting description of Raleigh, and its vicinity. The following extract is taken from his Travels in Canada and the United States in I8I6 and 1817 (Boston, 1818).

.Raleigh is the capital of North Carolina, and seems a clean little country town. At one end of the principal, or rather, only street stands the Governors brick-house, and at the other the senate. or court-house, surrounded by a grass plot neatly laid out. The houses' are small, and built of scantling.^ Some of them have their foundations of the takous granite of the ledge, which is the only stone in the country. The total want of} limestooe. and scarcity of brickj earth, render it extremely difficult and expenrive, to give

buildings any degree of stability. The stage stops half a day at Raleigh, which enabled me to have a minings quail shooting with two gentlemen, one of whom had fallen in love with my pointer, on my alighting at the tavern; and if any conclusion can be drawn from two chance specimens, society at Raleigh is by no means in a pitiable condition . . .

At Fayetteville the road again crosses the granite ledge, and traverses a desolate tract of swamp and sandy-pine woods in Georgetown. In all this distance, Lumberton is the only clump of houses to which courtesy can apply the name of a village: the Uvera here is kept by a general of militia, who seemed, indeed, to have more of the spirit of the soldier than o the landlord, for he declined Uking payment for the refreshment he very civilly prepared for me. A tract of, country like the above can have little variety of scenery; the heavy dreariness of the pine-' barrens was, however,* sometimes relieved by the verdue of the swamps, which were covered with bright, evergreens, through which the road frequently ran for some distance, as through a park shrubbery.Allen Nevins, American Social History as Recorded by British Travelers, p. 103.

912, up from the 601 in 1P70, while the 1890 figure reflected still greater increases with 1,937 persons. Greenville began the 20th century with a population of 2,565 as the town continued its urban expansion.

From the beginning, the physical growth of Greenville was dictated and restricted by its geographical setting on the southern banks of the Tar River and town expansion from the original 100 acres was mostly to the south, east and west until modem times. The area immediately north of the river, by its swampy nature, discouraged urbanization.

Railroad development, particularly the completion of the Coast Line ^ Railroad from 5k;otIand Neck to Greenville in 1889 and the Washington-Greenville-Raleigh section of the Norfolk-Southern Railway in 1907, and the initiation of tobacco market warehousing was instrumental in shaping the growth of Greenville

When the new century dawned. several tobacco warehouses were already in operation on the western edge of the city along the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad on both sides of the Dickinson Avenue, known at that time as the Plank Road. Development west of the tracks was limited to minor residential growth.

Also in 1907, with the establishment of East Carolina Teachers Training School, the city experienced one of the strongest impulses for growth that a small, rural farming center could expect. Located on the eastern edge of the city on roughly 100 acres of land between E. Fifth Street and Green Mill Run, the new educational facility planted its roots for a long stay.

The college induced residential growth to the north and southwest of the campus but served to draw the line temporarily on expansion and development east of the educational complex.

In the early decades of the 1900s, industrial and wholesale growth, intensified along the railroad and Dickinson Avenue-S. Evans Street boundaries and tended to lower the quality of the western residential sections.

A 1933 map of Greenville reflected general corporate expansion in every direction but north as the river continued to form the northern boundary. Generally, the city limits reached to just east of Meade Street on the east, to the Norfolk-Southern Railroad on the south, and followed a staggered path on the west that included sections of Dickinson Avenue, Spruce Street, Raleigh Avenue, Hudson Street, and W. Fifth Street, and intersected the blocks between Nash and Cadillac Streets from Ward to the River.

Immediately following World War II, Greenville began a pattern of suburbanization that generally followed the . north-south axis of the city although growth was evident in all directions to some extent.

Population advances were sharp from 1900 to 1910 as the city gained from 2,565 to 4,101. The 1910 to 1920 period saw a climb to 5,772 while the next ten years reflected a substantial increase to 9,194. In 1940, the local population was listed as 12,674.

Annexations and changes in the corporate limits took place regularly, although many extensions involved only a squaring up of city limit lines or annexing small parcels of land.

In 1947, after a petition was presented by citizens living in the Flemings Crossroads or Meadowbrook area north of the River requesting annexation, the board of aldermen conducted the required public hearings and voted to bring the northern area into the city limits.

In 1950, the city had 3,167 acres of land within the corporate limits. Included to the north was the airport property, the Greene Street area out to the vicinity of the Pactolus Highway, and Meadowbrook. The eastern boundary reached out along Third, Fourth and Fifth Streets to an area just east of Greenwood Cemetery. The southern city limit extended down to the area presently known as Kearney Park west of Evans Street and the western limit followed the present Memorial Drive northward to the River and along the river to the airport vicinity.

A series of land additions during the 1950s increased the size of Greenville by some 697 acres and from 1960 to 1964, the city annexed 1,250 more acres.

As the city gained acreage, population figures also grew. In 1950, the census listed the local population as 16,724 and the figure increased to 22,860 in 1960.

On Nov. 19, 1965, the City Council approved the annexation of some 1,450 acres as the size of the city was increased by roughly 30 per cent. Prior to the council action, the city limits had included 4,400 acres. Population in the newly annexed area was estimated at 1,534.

The annexation action brought in several islands or land areas which had been surrounded by the city limits. East Carolinas athletic park and the colleges acreage west of Charles Street was also included which finally brought all of the college property into the city limits. In addition, Pitt Plaza and West End shopping complexes were brought in.

The last major annexation occurred in November of 1971 when the City Council took in 1,026 acres. Annexed areas included a 226 acre resHential tract adjoining the Pitt fairgrounds and a swampy tract along N.C. 11 bordering the Tar River; portions of

Meadowbrook, including a residential area north of Mumford Road; a 50-acre tract (Blount property) between Greenville Boulevard and Evans Street extended; a 33-acre section north of Greenville Boulevard; a 417-acre tract

between Hooker Road and the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad and extending acorss Greenville Boulevard, including the property of WNCT-TV; the 206-acre Brown Farm north of First Street along the Tar River; and two areas totaling 27.2 acres on the southside of Red Banks Road.

The first property annexed under the new Satellite Annexation Law, which permits a municipality to take in property that is not contiguous to the city limits, was the Lake Ellsworth Subdivision (205

acres) north of U.S. 264 Business and received City Council approval on Aug. 9, 1974.

(Currently, according to the office of the City Planner, Greenville has some 13 square miles of land area or over 8,300 acres.

Population figures for Greenville in 1970 were 29,063, a significant increase over the 22,860 in 1960. Estimates for 1974 by the Chamber of Commerce placed the population for Greenville at approximately 30,000.

An interesting aspect of the

population statistics for

Greenville involves the inclusion of college students in the overall tabulation. Census figures for years prior to 1950 did not reflect the number of college students living here unless they were natives of the city.

In 1950, there were 1,179 college students living here in addition to the 15,545 residents listed as non-collegiate. The 1960 census figure of 22,860 for Greenville included 2,729 students while the 29,063 figure for 1970 included roughly 7,000 college students.

The county population has also been affected by the college as the 1950 Pitt census figure of 63,789 included 1,226 college students, the 1960 figure of 69,942 h

included 2,839, and the 72,000 j

listed in 1970 included 8,000 college students.

College enrollment has been projected to expand at a fast pace during the 1970s with an enrollment of some 12,000 by 1980. At that rate, figured in comparison with the citys growth rate. Greenville would have a population of approximately 42,000 by 1980.

Since 1915, Roses has continued to grow and provide steady employment for thousands of people in North Carolina and the entire Southeastern United States.

The beginning of Roses large scale growth came with the decision to move into shopping centers.

This trend started back in 1947.

The First Roses store was established in Downtown Greenville on July 16, 1938. The store was expanded in 1960. Today Roses maintains a modern 45,000 sq. ft. store at Pitt Plaza Shopping Center, in which over 25,000 items are available, and a modern fully-equipped cafeteria.

Roses Pitt Plaza Store employs over 80 people from the Greenville area and works two shifts a day to keep the doors open to the buying public.

With the awareness that a company is only as good as its people, Roses takes pride giving recognition to its employees

for their hard work in making their growth possible.

And Because of the Wonderful People of Greenville and Eastern Carolina, we look forward with hope and confidence knowing that here we will all share fully in the progress to come. We are proud to be a part of such a progressive city and its people.

lll--The Dally R^nector. Greenville. N.C.Sunday. October 6. 1974Urban Renewal A Historic Step

By TOM BAINKS Reflector Staff Writer

Rede\*elopment and urban renewal were insignificant terms in the early days of Greenvilles history but now. some 200 <^vears later, both programs are playing a part in preserving it.

Greenville citizens were divided in 1%1 over the issues of urban renewal and public housing and a referendum narrowly passed endorsing the citys first renewal effort in the Shore Drive area north of First Street

Proponents of the slum clearance program contended that renewal of the area through careful planning was essential in fostering growth and ridding the city of its oldest and most severe slum district

Those who opposed the federally-assisted project argued that, amont other evils, it was wrong for the city to force citizens who lived in the Shore Drive area to give up their homes through condemnation and compel them to involuntarily move from the only place many of them had ever known.

Others argued that local government would be hindered by a dependency on the federal government in seeking planning funds, financing and leadership decisions involving urban renewal

Public housing became a factor here in the Shore Drive issue when it became apparent that many of the families who would be moved out of the area would be in need of help in obtaining another place in which to live.

Local planners envisioned a restoration of the citys Town Common and although an element of history went down with each dilapidated dwelling, the preservation of the original section along the river was a gesture for history.

In the original 1771 act that authorized the establishment of a town known as Martinborough on the southern banks of the Tar River, provisions called for a property owner, Richard Evans, to give his consent in court to have some 100 acres of his land laid out for a town.

Evans died before the provisions of the act were

fulfilled but his wife Susanna gave authorization for use of the land in July of 1772. An amendment to the original charter was secured in 1774 validating the consent of Susanna Evans as well as all deeds for property issued from the date of the 1771 act

The amendment also provided that the courthouse, prison, stocks and pillory be moved from Hardees Chapel to Mar-finborough and that the town become the county seat

The description of the 100 acres of land utilized as the original town site, according to a document filed and the Pitt County Register of Deeds, indicated that the site was more or less being in Pitt County on the south side of Tarr River bank, at the upper end of a plantation at the mouth of a branch running south ten degrees east. IJ.'i poles thence south 80 degrees west to a branch. Thence down the branch to the river, thence up the river to the first station, being the bound and limits of the town to be erected and laid off.

Lots were sold by the appointed commissioners and apparently those just south of the river, being very close to the flood plain, were too low to be marketable. Development never took place below a reasonable level towards the river bank

It was apparently the custom in those days to set aside a common grazing area for livestock and an open area for gatherings and no doubt, such a place was designated for Martinborough. However, there is no documentation that supports the theor>- that the area between First Street and the river was ever officially designated for grazing or open space purposes and called the Town Common Actually, any publicly owned tract that is utlized as a city park can be termed a town common.

At any rate, the area along the river was and is historically significant in that it was included in the original 100 acres of land.

Restoration of the Shore Drive area following the purchase of property by the Redevelopment Commission began with a razing of the slum district and the 67-

acre tract, containing some 236 substandard residential dwellings, took on a new look. Unfortunately, the clearing process also meant the removal of many of the stately oaks that had shaded the river banks for years and years and years.

Sentiment toward use of the land as a riverside park grew as urban renewal began in the 1960s and plans were envisioned for a municipal building on the site, as well as commercial structures, a restaurant and motor hotel.

Adoption of the term. Town Common, for the riverside area apparently involved a general acceptance that the site would be an ideal public park location and use of the term in recent years has increased.

The Redevelopment Commission completed one of its major objectives in the Shore Drive Urban Renewal Plan when, after constructing the Tar River bulkhead and grading the area, a deed was delivered to the city in March of 1974 conveying over 18 acres for development as a park.

The city is now in the process of completing some $130,000 in improvements in the area now accepted as the Town Common. The improvements include general landscaping, walkways and installation of lights along the walkways.

Joe Laney, current executive director of the Redevelopment Commission, noted that, in addition to the 18-acre park. $1.500,000 of new private construction has been completed, another $675.000 of new office and institutional buildings- are now under construction, and some $2 million in new construction will commence in 1974. including a $1,500,000 regional banking facility

This project along justifies the citys commitment to the Community Development Program. Laney asserted, since it has generated over $3 million in new construction and will produce an estimated $30.000 tax return to the city annually. This increased tax revenue will repay the citys share of the program within ten years.

Laney noted that prior to renewal, the entire Shore Drive area produced $3,000 annually, which was not enough to even

cover the cost of necessary city services to the neighborhood.

Indeed, the restoration of the area along the river gives the city a park that will be available for use by all Greenville citizens and whether the intended use in 1771 involved public meeting space or pasture or not. somehow it does not seem to matter.

Since the Shore Drive Project, the Redevelopment Commission has virtually completed the Newtown Urban Renewal Area, an 18-acre project designed to clear 157 substandard structures in a delapidated neighborhood. Today, with only final grading and landscaping of the area remaining to be completed, there are 78 units of new public housing occupied on the site.

Laney commented. It is interesting to note than even in this project, where the land use is primarily for public housing, the Housing Authority payment in lieu of taxes will produce twice the revenue for the city than the tax return of the neighborhood prior to renewal.

Another important project underway by the commission in the Central Business District renewal program. The executive director explained that the objective of this 72-acre effort is to completely modernize the downtown, provide adequate parking, beautify the area, and improve traffic flow. Pedestrian and vehicular traffic will be separated by a two-block pedestrian mall and development of a pedestrian walkway system.

This $8,000,000 project is approximately 50 per cent complete, Laney reported, and construction of the mall is scheduled to begin in early 1975.

He said that the commission is completing the first year in the Southside Urban Renewal Area. The 180-acre rehabilitation effort includes some very delapidated home, it was pointed out. with 83 per cent or 222 residential structures sub-stand^d. A large number of the homes, however, can be economically renovated, he explained, asserting that renovation will be the major thrust in this project.

An important aspect of this plan will be to encourage investment by private developers for construction of modest homes designed for the low income working family, Laney continued. With high interest rates and current construction costs, this will be a challenge, but the Redevelopment Commission feels that through cooperation and coordination with local builders and Savings and Loan Institutions, the dream of 100 homes for low income families will be realized.

The $7.500,000 public housing program here involved .531 units under management of the Housing Authority and 122 units under development.

These housing units fill a dire need for truly deserving low income families, he said. For instance, 40 per cent are occupied by elderly, widows, and disabled, and another 40 per cent of the residents are full time working families who receive no public assistance. The only alternative for these families and individuals is delapidated slum housing.

Citing Greenvilles progress in the area of Federal Community-Development Programs, Laney pointed out that although the city ranks 15th in the state in population, it is seventh in the amount of urban renewal programs funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development with over $12.000,000 in federal grant reservations for over 300 acres of renewal area.

The city also ranks seventh in the state in the amount of community development revenue sharing funds under the new Housing and Urban Development Act of 1974.

As Greenville looks to the future, we see a successful transition from slum clearance, which was necessary in the past, to a positive effort towards renovation and conservation to restore and preserve our existing neighborhood to prevent them from deteriorating into the slums of the future, Laney added

Maybe we are in a better position to shape and guide our future than our ancestors. Time again will tell.

Between 1770 and 1776, the quilted petticoats were favored.

Made of dainty colored materials, the petticoats were filled with a layer of cotton and finished with quilt-like stitches, often designed to form a pleasing border on the edge.

Old records tell of the gaiety and interest in styles that continued in New York, Philadelphia, and Boston even with the approach of the Revolutionary War. After the days of war, the English and French dressed soberly while the mood of Americans reflected exorbitance. Receiving the attention of national leaders, the people were asked to show restraint in the matters of ex-travagent dress.

At the turn of the century, Americans became interested in Paris stylestight trousers, high boots, and short waisted coats. Cloth capes and shawls, along with silk, cloth and kid shoes attracted the women. In 1804, one of the greatest changes in womens clothes became popularthe French empire, which remained stylish until

1820. Women then began tiring of the empire style and dresses began to stand out in front. 'The 1830 costume scene included the bell skirt and the poke bonnet.

As the 1860s drew to a close, there was a dramatic change in the fashion silhouette. The crinolinethe dominant feature of the mode for nearly 20 years slipped round to the back, diminished and then disappeared altogether. The mass of material in back was bunched up into a bustle and reinforced by a pad of horsehair. 'The bustle became the typical outline of the early 1870s.

The sewing machine-perfected during the previous decadewas so inexpensive that almost every middle class home possessedone. The womens magazines not only gave directions for home dressmaking but also issued paper patterns.

In the last quarter of the 19th century, the bicycle made an important influence on womens clothes. The long trailing

dresses were not comfortable or safe for riding the women were compelled to wear either a short, divided skirt or to adopt the knickerbockers of the male cyclist. 'This represented a real revolution in feminine dress women wore breeches at last.

A new change in silhouette occurred early in 1912, according to James Laver, who wrote One Hundred Years of Fashion. The straight effect of the skirt was modified by looping it up here and there or by wearing a kind of tunic over it. Lace tunics were fashionable even for day wear.

For the first time in civilized history, women began to expose their legsin 1935. Skirts shrank to knee length, causing a tremendous uproar. A reversal occurred in 1930 when skirts became long agin. The emphasis throughout the thirties was on slim hips and backless dresses In 1939, skirts of day dresses suddenly became ^bort again, reaching just below the knee.

A young Paris designer.

Christian Dior, launched the New Look in 1947the skirt was long and wide at the hem. Shoulders were narrow and roundedthere were little pads on the hips to make them look larger.

The A-line design was again introduced in the 1950s along with mid-calf skirt lengths, bobby socks and no cuff, continental pants.

Skirts were short again, by the mid-sixties, they were very shortshorter than they had been in 1927. The mini skirt had arrived and now the emphasis was no longer on the calf but on the thigh.

A study of the silhouette of fashion brings both fashion and history to life. Fashion is related to world eventspast and presentin three major areas: fashion is related to social, economic and technoligical events; many current fashions are adapted from historic forms of dress; and forms of dress generally conform to the needs and environment of the society,

commented Dr. Moore.

Continuing she said, Economic forces determine how much people will have to spend on clothing, what and how much clothing will be produced and what prices will be charged. Technological development contributes new fabric, fibers, finishes, coloring processes, production and distribution methods which also affect types and amount of clothing available.

The environmental factors that influence forms of dress include climate, codes of modesty, religious or cultural dictates. Clothing forms are also influenced by the need for protection, for self expression and for status.

Today, an observer walking behind a young man and a young woman might well find it difficult to decide which is which.

So, you see, as James Laver states. Fashion is never arbitrary; it always means something, concluded Dr. Moore,

Blackbeard

Encounter

(From North Carolina Folklore Journal. Vol. XXil. No. 1 Aug. 1974).

By WlLBl R C. ORMOND

A tradition in our family says that one of our great-great-grandparents had an encounter with the notorious Blackbeard. My great-grandmother was a Laughinghouse. and this tradition come through her to us However, the late Dr. (Triarles OHagan Laughinghouse of Greenville Pitt County also knew of the tradition. Many years ago my mother. Ada Hardee Ormond, and I went to Oriental to visit Captain Joe Laughinghouse because we had heard that he knew of the legend. He verified the following story of how our ancestor met the pirate Blackbeard face to face. 1 am writing it just as I heard it. give or take a few possible lapses of memory and maybe a few inaccuracies

Our early ancestor Laughinghouse. soon after coming to this country, built his cabin of drifting clapboards and live oak posts, locating it on a sand dune on the banks of Bath

Oeek where he lived alone. On this creek Blackbeard entered and departed from the harbor in the town of Bath on his pirating trips to the high seas.

There are numerous stories about how Blackbeard brought into Bath the loot he had taken from ships of many nations, carting it form the dock through a tunnel which led to the basement of the palace of Governor Eden for safekeeping. It was to be delivered later to the King of England, who protected Blackbeard in his piracy. Blackbeard, it was rumored, fell

desperately in love with the beautiful daughter of Governor Elden. but he was outwitted by her as he attempted to take her as his wife. But thats another story.

Blackbeard was famous for his swordsmanship. When he attacked a vessel, he came alongside and climbed aboard, leading his stalwart men with his sword in his hand. Many were the men who fell at a blow of his sword. His reputation of delivering death blows with his weapon was known along the coasts of Virginia and North Carolina.

It was after a long voyage at sea that Blackbeard and his crew spied Grandpas small cabin among the trees. They had not seen it before and decided to go ashore and investigate. Leaving the anchored vessel. Blackbeard approached the cabin with Israel Hands, his right-hand man. and number of other sailors I'll knock on the door and enter. Blackbeard told them, while you all stand close by the door If you hear me yell, you ruch in and protect me.

Blackbeard knocked. The d(X)r opened. Grandpa asked Blackbeard to come in He did. shutting the door behind him. After courteous introductions, they sat on the rough bench talking about the ocean and also the settlements in the new land.

Finally Blackbeard spoke of swordsmanship and suggested they cut swords. Grandpa agreed, removing his sword from its sheath on the wall He took his stance. The pirate stood before him with drawn sword. They made the initial thrusts at each other and retreated They

There is no city of the East which has developed as rapidly as has Greenville as a shopping center. The city is worthy of the distinction it has attained of being East Carolinas Shopping Center with 202 retail stores carrying all lines of merchandise, with retail sales totaling $6,724,000; forty wholesale establishments, doing a business of $33,779,000.

This was the report to the citizens of Greenville on the progress of their city merchants and businesses back in 1942. But the history of Greenvilles merchants goes back a few years further.

Businesses ranged from plumbing and heating services, general merchandise and cotton, to insurance and furniture. As it is now, Greenville was a leading city for the marketing of tobacco, and the city was well-equipped to handle the influx of farmers bringing their crop in for buyers to eye The Centar Brick Warehouse was one of the towns more prominent warehouses. They then held the distinction of selling more tobacco direct from the producers hands of any warehouse on the Greenville market. Back in 1914, an average days sales would bring in the amount of $24.55 per hundred pounds of tobaccoa figure which has quadrupled in the 0 years since

Other tobacco firms included Munfords Warehouse, then the largest in the state, and Gentry and Gorman Warehouse between Ninth and Tenth Streets

Though it was not exactly the hub of the business area. Greenvilles merchants had a variety of services and stores to offer the public, whether they were from Greenville and Pitt County, or they were from other areas of the state, and had access to the goods supplied to the area. York. Perkins and Co. was said to be one of the larger and more prosperous stores in Greenville. It sold everything inrMing general merchandise from shoes and notions to ladies and mens furnishing goods. V E. Staton was anoth- merchant who was said to have the best interest of the city at heart.

Industry had a beginning in

Greenville. The John Flanagan Buggy Company made just what the name impliesbuggies. It also manufactured carriages and phaetons, vehicles with no side panels and four wheels. It was horse drawn. The original building was wooden, and was in the block between Fourth and Third Streets facing Cotanche They later moved into their brick edifice in 1913. The building was tom down in 1%7.

Before any mention of energy crises, fuel shortages, and daylight savings time. Greenville had an abundance of ice and coal dealers Already, ice was becoming a popular item with citizens, and the Greenville Ice and Coal company was already serving the community in its needs to keep warm, or cool off.

Furniture companies abounded in the town, with four companies serving the area, and one of the companies doubling as an .undertaking establishment. Candies were sold in certain places, catering to the kiddies, and the Busy Bee Cafe and Lunch Room, which claimed their prices were very reasonable, was for adults. There were few restaurants in the city, but there were a number of places in town for those who wanted to cook for themselves Four supermarkets served Greenville back in 1914

North Carolina was making rapid growth in agriculture and industry in the early part of the twentieth century, and Greenville was in the center of the progress Greenville is especially prosperous at the present time, and the building operations just completed and underway amount to more than one million dollars.Stalin Funeral

advanced with other thrusts, quickly guarding themselves from serious cuts. Both feinted blows After many defense motions Granpa cut at Blackboards throat, snipping off the top buttom of his coat without touching the challenger.

At this masterful stoke Blackbeard yelled. Help. Israel. Come here quick!

Israel rushed in with drawn sword followed by his men, ready to end Grandpas life. Blackbeard realizing he was not cut. cried out. Stay your swords! Here is a good swordsman. 1 am not hurt. He could have cut my throat as easily as he clipped off the button. Pick it up and hand it to me. The men obeyed his orders, put their swords away, and went outside.

Speaking to Grandpa. Blackbeard said, Rarely do 1 find a man who is as skillful with a sword as you. Sir. You have my admiration. I need all the good men 1 can find who can handle the sword like you. You are one of the very best I have ever seen. Will you join me and my crew?

But I came to this land to make my home, Grandpa said. I plan to marry and live near this settlement along this creek. I must refuse your offer.

With that Blackbeard expressed his regrets, and he and his men returned to their ship, hoisted their Jolly Roger, and sailed away with the skull and crossbones blowing in the breeze.

WTiom Grandpa married and who started a line of desc-nedants who brought this story down to us are one of the lapses in the tradition.

TOPSAILS W HITE HILLS.

ELLSIVE PIRATE LAIR

By RIGIITON McCALLlM

(From North Carolina h'olklore Journal, Vol XXIL No. 3. Aug. 1974).

Topsail Island has long been considered Blackbeards favorite base on the North Carolina coast. Fishermen around Hampstead will tell you that his pirate city at the White Hills numbered over 2,000 villains, and that Blackbeard actually gave the island its name. The inlet at the south end of the beach was deep enough to allow sailing ships safe entrance and treacherous enough to deter captains navigating in strange waters. Thus Blackbeard could sail into the sound behind the heavily wooded island, allowing only the tip of his sails to show out at sea. In minutes, he could drop the sails and send sailors scurrying up the mainmasts to tie branches on their tops. From the ocean, bewildered pursuers saw only gracefully swaying trees. Legend has it that Blackbeard was so successful with this ruse that he began referring to the hideout as Topsail Island.

For generations, commercial fishermen from the mainland told of sighting strange predawn lights moving through the underbrush on the island. As their stories unfolded at the fish houses, nobody laughed; but in full daylight, some of the eerie quality of their experience was lost

Several times, treasure hunters set out to find his pirate lair. These groups actually uncovered wooden chests buried deep in the white dunes on the sound side of Topsail. The chests were so old and rotten that all attempts failed to raise them intact. As their content fell away from the rotted wood and back into the watery holes, it was swallowed up in the soupy interior of the island. No concrete proof of a pirate city was successfully discovered in the sand, but it was during this period that local residents began to hear a highpitched, echoing laughter. It was heard by fishermen out at sea as well as islanders.

A few weeks after the treasure hunters gave up. no more laughter was heard Some folks said it was only the wind. Others knew that Blackbeard just enjoyed keeping his secret

Mrs McCallum (24 Warwick Place. Asheville 28804) writes: I was raised on Topsail Island and left in 1954 just as it was becoming a resort. We shared the island with a few families, the county prison farm, and the Hickory Hunt Qub As children, we helped the commercial fishermen clean their nets when they came in from sea, and they entertained us with wonderful tales.

A COLD DAY . .. This picture of a frozen Tar River was made on a very Cold day, possibly during the late 1940s or early 1950s from the Seaboard Coast Line railroad crossing just West of the Greene Street highway bridge. But local

residents may remember a similar scene on January 34,1966 when the river froze after a three-day period of below-freezing temperatures. The temperature on the morning of January 31 stood at 11 degrees.

Gander-Pulling SportBeguiling The Hours

(From North Carolina

History Told By Con

temporaries. Edited by Hugh Talmage Lefler, UNC Professor of History. University of North Carolina Press, 1948).

The following highly-colored, satirical account of a gander pulling well illustrates the amusements with which early North Carolinians beguiled away the hours. The employment of horses in the sport, the liberal use of whiskey to sustain flagging spirits, and the almost universal betting on the outcome lent to this amusement something of the tone of King Arthurs tournaments, mixed with the crudeness and sensual pleasure of rural sport.

teacups The ardour of joy springs up, and soon is lighted in every face The target is fixed and many a bullet winged with invisible and unerring speed evices the skill of the marksman, and sends his name on a shout of triumph to the skies. At length the, rumour is abroad that the business of the day is prepared, and the hour of trial arrived, when champions, ponies and wagerers are to hold themselves in readiness, while all spectators, gentlement. simpletons and raggamuffins are warned to enjoy the dodging, the gobbling and pulling of the great gander of the day. They flock in crowds to the appointed scene. On high you behold suspended by the Kbels from the

flexible bough of some enigh-boring tree, or from some elastick pole, the grand object on which all eyes are fixedA gander venerable for age, the sinews of whose neck hardened by years, are to contend in force with the sinews of many an arm that is the boast of its owner in the doughty field. In such a contest the chief hope of this prime enblem of all the geese and ganders on the plain above which he hangs, must be found in the armour of soap with which his limber neck is overlaid. On another side is raised to view the richly glittering hat which is to crown the head of him, who shall carry away the head of the father of goslings. The signal is given and the candidates appear

in the lists with their proud and prancing ponies. Away they fly in successive career to the destined prize, the high object of their aspiring hopes, while the hearts of the multitude whose due bills are at stake, but espacially the hearts of those fond damsels whose muscular and sinewy lovers are to vindicate their prowess, beat high with expectation. A centinel is stationed to urge the lingering nag from the reeking victim. The rider rises forward in his might, to seize the squalling prize; the noble gander waves his easy neck, and laughs in triumph at the disappointed grasp.

Another follows and is still succeeded till at length a

resolute spirit determined on success lays hold with vigorous gripe, and lies sprawling on the ground. His successor sees his fate, but still more firm to his purpose hangs dangling in the air. 'The air is rent with peals of applause, but it remains for one of greater power of muscles and weight of flesh and bone, to accomplish the glorious victory; he is found at last, and clinging to his beast with a force that almost stops him in mid career, he bears off in triumph and with the inmost exultation of his mistresses heart the (ganders head). Thomas Hendersons Letter-Book. 1810-1811. Manuscript in possession of the North Carolina Hisotrical Commission.

Another of our games which is more especially worthy of attention than the rest is that of gander pulling This consists in hanging an old tough gander by the heels, rubbing his neck well with grease and soap, then riding under him with speed, seizing him by the neck as you pass and endeavoring to pull his head off. The amusement consists in the frequent failures of the rider to lay hold on the long necked animal, and the danger he is in of being pulled from his horse, while he endeavors to pull off the poor animals head. I cannot help recommending this as a most delightful amusement to all lovers of fun. It is one of the games which are assigned to F^aster The arrival of this period is for some weeks anticipated with rapture, by all bruisers either at fist or grog, all heavy bottomed well balanced riders, all women who want a holiday, and who have a curiosity to see the world, and particularly by all buxome young lasses, who wish to see the weight and prowess of their sweethearts tried in open field In short all sporters, blackguards, mongrels and negroes take warning to collect their shillings and pence, that they may have wherewithal to buy whiskey, be generous to their companions, grow conspicuous by rattling their chink, or at least by showing that sort which is of the colour and consistency of ground leaf tobacco. Then shall all overseers and enterprisers, have an opportunity to recount their exploits in beating up negro-quarters on a patrol night, in gouging a champion who was stout-hearted enough to attack them. or in shouting, quizzing, or chuckling at a gentleman traveller on a tobacco rolling They shall then be able to prove their alertness in beating the earth with the body of a wrestler, by lifting & tossing him with a crotch lock or a cross buttock

The future of Greenville and Eastern Carolina is assured, we believe, because of the numerous new industries and businesses which are showing a steady progress toward the building of a great industrial area.

But these are only material things, great in themselves but topped by something else; the character of our region and its people, something that we ourselves are very much aware of, that soon reveals itself to strangers, to newcomers, a friendliness, a respect

for high principles.

Love For Craftsmanship Grows

By ROSALIE TROTMAN Reflector Womans Editor

What is old and what is an-tiuqe? When one is four years old and always looking up, old is the big kids and antique is mom and dad. Never again will the definition be so clear.

A young country sees antique where an old country sees only old. This view of things was brought home clearly to an American shopping in Korea. A large single candlestick of crystal brass with the movable butterfly reflector was decided upon by the American who then inquired if it was an antique. The Korean sadly shook his head and replied. Noit can not be more than 200 years old."

A young couple sees only old where antique should be. Far too often this is the view from the plunder roombe it grandmas attic, grandpa's basement or mothers spare room. As the young leave, the family homeplace is broken up and they carelessly wave aside family pieces as old junk only at a later date to wistfully think of the antiques they gave away.

With bicentennials being celebrated apd American lore sharedmore and more love of fine wood, beauty of craftsmanship and respect of history is spreading over the country. The view from the plunder room often is that of ones heritage.

With this in mind, a visit was made to the home of Mrs. Nina Harris Redditt. Although not an antique collector, her home on Cotanche Street is furnished throughout with family pieces.

In Mrs. Redditts kitchen there is a dropleaf table which once belonged to her great-aunt, Elmily Moore Hyman. When the two leaves are in the down position, the table top is about the size of an ironing board. And this table was used for ironing in the kitchen (irons were heated on the stove) and it still bears faint bum marks. The wood is weathered from being on the open porch which connected the kitchen to the Moores house.

Also in the kitchen is Mrs. Isabelle Barnhill Moores press. The press, an unpainted, unstained rough pinewood cupboard, was in Mrs. Redditts great-grandmothers dirt floor kitchen. Through the years it acquired a coat of white paint and a collection of Jugtown pottery.

Once most homes had their seldom used T)est rooms which were called parlors. In the center of this room there was usually a round table on a pedestal, as opposed to legs, which was covered by a white lace tablecloth. There were three standard items on a center tablean oil lamp with shade,, the family Bible and the family, album. Mrs. Redditt took her-great-aunt Jackie Joyners* center table out of the attic and put it in her kitchen. Here she' shares her breakfast with the birds and squirrels on the window ledge just a window screen away.

In the dining room there is another dropleaf table, a gate leg table for dining, a sideboard with its wine cabinet (with its bottle of homemade wine dated 1894) and a mahogany comer cupboard. (Mahogany comer cupboards were for the company

rooms such as the dining room or parlor. They became much in demand after the Revolution when fine china and other such imports arrived.)

Mrs. Redditt has another comer cupboard in the hall but this onelike the press in the kitchen was pine and unpainted. The pine unpainted cupboards were kitchen cabinets and made to hold ordinary ware such as pewterwhere as the rich and often ornate mahogany cupboards in the company rooms were for fine china and rare pieces. Mrs. Belle Hearne Harris. Mrs. Redditts mother saw the latter cupboard tossed out on a woodpile She bought it for a cord of firewood to save it unfortunately the two top doors on the cupboard had already been used for firewood

Mrs. Moores preserving kettle with its six molds were taken from the kitchen to a place of honor in the dining room. One of Mrs. Redditts daughters saw a Robert Douglas Hunter still life which featured a similar kettle. Struck by the coincidence. the daughter bought the picture -to hang over the preserving kettle. So it was back to the attic where she found an old jug to exactly duplicate "tile still life on the chest below the picture With a couple of lemon and grapefruit candles and a dried flower, the reflection was complete.

Also saved from attic oblivion is a fire carrierbefore the days of matches this covered scoop was a common convenience in old houses where each room had its fireplace. Neighbors often borrowed a hunk of fire. On the living room mantel there are two pierced tin lanterns. Although called Paul Revere lanterns.

America might be celebrating a little later if he had used them to signal with, for they give off very little light!

The four posted canopied bed in one of the bedrooms was from Colonel Meshs plantation down on the coast. It has a very high bed frame so there is a set of 19th century bed steps beside the bed for assistance in getting in and out. As opposed to open frame steps, these are the box type. There are three step becomes a lid which covers a chamberpot (the original indoor plumbing).

Underneath this bed is the trundle bed which Isabelle Barnhill brought with her when she married Spencer Moore. One of their 12 children raised with that trundle bed was Mack Moore, an MIA of the Civil War. Another was Charlotte Elizabeth Moore, who married Benjamine Howell Heame when the Civil War was over. The youngest son of John and Pennetta Robinson Heame, Ben joined the (hn-federate army at the age of 16, taking the place of his oldest brother Orlando in order that he could stay with their newly widowed mother to run the farm. The trundle bed is a low bed frame with cross ropes over which featherbeds were placed for children to sleep upon. The tnuidle slides out of sight under the big bed when not in use.

In another bedroom there is a matching pair of single beds which were handmade on the Randolph plantation (John and Lucy Ebron Randolph) next door to the Heame place out by the Old Blue Banks. Two interesting facts concerning the beds are two used ropes looped over hand-carved knobs for slats and springs and their size.

STILL LIFE SCENE. . .in dining room features a picture by Robert Douglas Hunter in addition to a family preserving kettle with its six molds.

Although not youth beds, they only measure 5 feet 11 Inches headboard to footboard. Old clotheslike wedding dresses with 18 inch waist lines and size two shoes and old beds three to four inches shorter than standard size new mattresses really make one aware of the size changes in what is average in a century.

In the sunroom there is a desk which was made in Greenville by Lewis, Bonds (Cabinet. The slant top desk is dated July 26, 1815. It came from the estate <rf Benjamin Heames sister, Mrs. Arthur Forbes.

The other desk in that room was brought to Greenville by the Methodist preacher Reverend Bienne. He was also a fertilizer dealer having the fertilizer shipped to Greenville from Norfolk on the big wheel boat the Shiloah. This desk and a safe in the back of Smiths general store was his office.

Old letters and bits of paper help to close generation gaps. A good source of these are the old trunks, hope chests, wooden boxes, hi-boys,. low chest <rf drawers, and chests-on-chests which sometimes are rediscovered by family members in attics, basements and tobacco bams.

One such paper, found in a walnut paneled, leather inset desk box that belonged to the Harris family, was a certificate of security issued to one D. G.

Sadlen of Lake Landing, county of Hyde, sUte of N. Carolina by the Maryland Live Stock Mutual Aid Society of Baltimore City,

Maryland. It Is the entrance fee (insurance) for a bay gelding covering four years (19th of Aug. 1882 at 12 oclock noon,

CAROLINA SALES CORPORATION

It was way back in December m*. that Carolina Kelvinator Corporation, Inc. opened its doors in Greenville, North Carolina for the purpose of wholesale distribution of Kelvinator electric refrigerators in 34 eastern North Carolina counties. The beginning was small with a staff of 4 and first year's sales of $194,0S9.(K> evolving to the present corporation of 12 employees and annual sales exceeding $11 million.

In 1930, the original distribution area was expanded to include 54 North Caroline counties and 34 counties in South Carolina. Recognizing the trend toward the use of home appliances, the management began expanding the number of products sold in order to provide a more complete distribution service to the dealer network. Accordingly, to permit better applicability, the company name was changed to Carolina Sales Corporation on January 1, 1935.

Every business has its important decision points or crisis, and in this respect Carolina Sales Corporation is no exception. The war years severely limited the operational capabilities of the Company, but with tenacity and loyal dedication of its personnel, it weathered this period without an operating loss.

The second critical time came on Saturday night, February 3, I9SL when fire completely destroyed the General Offices at Greenville, leaving only the records contained in the safe. Although this was a severe blow, the management recognized the need to continue its same standard of services to its dealers, so, on the following Monday morning at9:00 a.m., the Company opened its oMices in the Proctor Hotel, and continued business without serious interruption. This amazing and almost impossible achievement is indicative of this Company's ability to

meet and overcome disaster.

The tremendous success of Caroline Sales Corporation can be traced to one maivJames T. Little, Sr., Founder and present Board Chairman. "Icy," as he is known to his many friends, established and operated his Company based on the fundamental principle that a distributor should be e service organization. Adherence to this principle has been the key factor in the ever-increasing sales volume and has influenced the Company's ability to obtain and retain valuable franchises.

As a serivce organization, Carolina Sales is dedicated toward providing quality products with attending knowledge and sales training and assistance, replacement parts availability, finance plans and facilihes, and sales promotion and advertising assistance. The full and complete coordination and dedication of these functions has

been and continues to be the primary purpose of this Company.

Mr Little has been indeed fortunate In having a son who has evidenced the same principles, dedication and drive as his father. Jim Little, Jr. has "grown up" with the Company. A 1959 graduate of the University of North Carolina, Jim spent a brief time with the US Army before becoming actively engaged in the Company's affairs.

In 1948, he became the acting General Manager, a capacity in which his training and dedication to the tenets of his father began paying oH as he fully evidenced his ability by expanding sales significantly and increasing operating profits. Jim was elected Executive Vice President and General Manager in early 1949, a position he held until March It, 1971, when he moved up to the position of President. Mis father was, at the same time, elected Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

With increased product lines and enlarged sales terrHory, so came the need tor expanded management. The Company now has four major sales divlsiom with attendant supportive functions, such as personnel, accounting,

parts, service, and shipping.

The original of these salekHmits it the Appliance Division, which it responsible for the sales and distribution of domestically manufacturedhomeappliancetand home entertainment products. The sales territory of this division covers the eastern half of North and Sooth Carolina. As this division reaches the end of its 44th year, it stands out as the oldest distributor of Kelvinator appliances in the world. Other brand names handled by this division include Sylvania, Ouo-Therm, and Litton Microwave Ovens.

In 1934, the management felt the need for diversification and saw an opportunity in the heavy equipment field, and thus began the Commercial Division, which is responsible for the sale of commercial and home heating and air conditioning equipment, commercial refrigeration equipment, and related industrial supplies and parts in eastern North Carolina. Major brands are Trane, Nolin and Ouo-Therm.

A further diversification in 1954 resulted in the third sales unit, that being the Marine Divisioa which sells and distributes marine accessories and supplies for use of pleasure boats. The sales area of this division includes ell of North and South Carolina and a part of Virginia.

The newest of these units is the International Division, begun in 1944, which handles imported items throughout North and South Carolina. These products includes home end portable electronic products, such as Sony, Craig, Capehart, and Lear Jet.

Each of these divisions is separately staffed by a Division Manager, field salesmen, and order and shipping personnel.

Pepsi Cola Bottling

\THE STORY OF PEPSI

In th summtr of 1898, Caleb Bradham, a young New Bern, North Carolina pharmacist, began to experiment with cola beans U> formulate a new soft drink to sell at his drug store's fountain. He concocted a blend of sugar, vanilla, rare oils, spices and the cola nut, among other ingredients. Doc Bradham called It Pepsi-Cola, and registered this trademark in 1903 when he formed his own company.

In 1904 he was bottlinga hazardous venture in those dayshis new drink, and by 1907, there were 40 franchises, primarily in the Carolinas and Virginia.

By World War I, 300 bottlers were operating in 24 states. After the war, misfortune struck. The war-time ceiling on sugar prces was lifted and prices of this vital ingredient skyrocketed. In anticipation of even higher prices, Bradham bought heavily as a hedge. He guessed wrong. Sugar prices plummeted and for the next fifteen years Pepsi-Cola's fortunes waned. At one point in the early 1930's only two bottlers were left. In 1931, Loft, Inc., a northern chain of candy stores, acquired an 80 percent interest in the newly formed Pepsi Cola Company.

Although court battles for control of the company still lay ahead, Pepsi-Cola began to move out of its dark ages in 1934 by selling 12-ounces of its drink for the same nickel that customers

were accustomed to paying for six-and-a-half ounces. Later, to promote this bargain, the world's first radio advertising jingle was aired: "Pepsi-Cola hits the spot. Twelve full ounces. That's a lot ... "

The company entered a new era. "Twice as much for a nickel" was to give way to slogans geared to a time of growing prosperity : "Be Sociable, Have a Pepsi"; "The Light Refreshment" and in the I960's, with young people targeted as the key consumers, "Now It's Pepsi for Those Who Think Young"; and "Come Alive, You're in the Pepsi Generation," a slogan that was to add a new phrase to the language. "Taste that Beats the Others Cold," "You've Got a Lot to Live, Pepsi's Got a Lot to Give," and Diet Pepsi's Girlwatchers campaign became national popular favorites. In 1974, "Join the Pepsi People, Peelin' Free" is the new slogan.

As the advertising thrust of Pepsi-Cola was changed, the product itself was changed to reflect the times. It was made less sweet to appeal more to the newly style-conscious American consumer. In 1958, new retail outlets, such as super markets, became the major sources of Pepsi-Cola sales. Overseas business had already increased to the point where in 1954, Pepsi-Cola International, Ltd., was organized as a wholly-owned subsidiary, with new plants being opened at the rate of almost 30 a year throughout most of the world.

A Season For Hog-Killings

^By JKRRY RAYNOR Reflector Sunday Editor As Greenville celebrates its 200th anniversary in the month of October 1974. the division between urban and rural ways of life are much more sharply drawn than in any previous period

Even as late as the early post-World War II years, most rural activities around Greenville involved a sizeable portion of the towns citizensmany were in fact still farmers at heart living within the confines of a growing town

Until the recent advent of mechanized farming in the Greenville area, farm work in past years was characterized by ommunal efforts in several tasks that required more people than was available for the day-by-day round of family work on the farm.

It was only natural that people should instill a touch of the festive to make the occasions ones* of fun as well as achievement Without going back to the distant past, we can consider a few of the more important rural get togethers prevalent in the 20th century at least until the late 1940s. when the entire pattern of rural life in eastern North Carolina began to change drastically from patterns that had been slowly established over many decades.

Quilting Bees Strictly for the ladies was the needles and thread art of making quilts. A long, tedious process requiring many hours of work, women soon discovered time passed more quickly and that it was much more fun quilting in groups.

Before the days of diverting soap operas, and in years when most women were restricted to the home, what better way to keep up with real life dramatic episodes in the lives of neighbors than to compare accounts around the quilting frame Warm coverings for cold winter nights did get completed, often being items adding a dash of color and beauty to the plain interior of a majority of 18th and 19th century local homes.

W ood Cuttings For men, one of the get togethers exchanged between several neighboring households was annual wood cuttings. In late autumn when crops were harvested and before the hard cold of winter set in. ideal conditions existed for the purpose of laying in a plentiful supi^y of woodfor kitchen range, fireplaces, wood heaters and tobacco barn furnaces Ths host farmer prided himself on having handy a good supply of warming spirits to combat the bite of frost. Men arrived early, bringing axes, crosscut saws, home made mauls made of tough dogwood and metal wedges. Most had their overall pockets stocked with a full days supply of plugs of chewing tobacco or cans of favorite snuff.

After a warming nip, the task ' of felling, sawing and splitting trees began in earnest. Without the restraining influence of women folk, the mens banter would veer toward bawdy humor, aided by occasional swigs from the handy bottles of spirits

There were other bottles too, ones of kerosene to sprinkle on saws to combat the stickiness of resin from pines and sap from tough gum trees.

Theres been many a tall tale told about mix-ups of bottles, of spirits being sprinkled on saws and men unsuspectingly swigging down pints of kerosene Despite the element of ruralMarines Used Local Airport

(Editors note: The following item was taken from the Sept. 15, 1943 edition of 'The Dally Reflector.)

Work on the city-county airport near this city under direction of the CAA is (N-ogressing on schedule and barring unforseen bad weather or other difficulties, may- be completed even before the contract deadline of Oct. 5. The construction work is being done by Blythe Brothers Company of Charlotte.

As soon as the work is completed and passed by the CAA officials the field will be turned over to the Navy Department for use by the Marines as an auxiliary field of Cherry Point and New Rir air bases.

ribaldry, wood cuttings were basically serious affairs, with men being fully aware of the dangers of tree cutting. At the end of a long day of work, the host farmer looked with pride and relief on fresh split pine, stacked in four sided formations that resembled a piled-up rail fence. Four and five foot logs, smaller ones left unsplit, larger ones split into wedges, were piled up. and would later be carried by mule and wagon to the house for fireplaces and to tobacco barns to be restacked there

For young boys, few things could exceed the pleasure of acceptance into the circle of manly woodcutters Though not usually permitted to partake in the ritual of swigging Spirits, there was satisfaction enough in being offered a cup of coffee and the added pleasure of smelling the delightful fragrance of new cut wood.

Still another form of community efforts with quasientertainment overtures was the annual ritual of hog-killing. Like wood-cutting, it was a winter time get together, when the preservative qualities of cold weather made easier the task of preparing a years supply of pork.

In a very scattered localities in eastern North Clarolina, this old-fashioned manner of putting up meat is still carried on; however, a big majority of farmers now take live hogs to professionals who do all the dirty work and deliver back neatly wrapped and labeled bundles ready for putting in the freezer.

It would be safe to wager theres many among our readership (and not necessarily .senior citizens) who .remember playing the role of messenger boy. riding a mule from farm house to farm house with the invitation Papa wants you to come to his hog-killing tomorrow morning

Hopefully, the selected day would reveal brilliant stars and the crunch of frosted ground underfoot as neighbors began arriving before dawn, greeting each other in the welcome warmth of a farm kitchen. Gups of strong coffee with chicory were poured and distributed While women chatted and helped prepare a hearty breakfast, the men worked outside.

Dancing flames from big fires heating water under wash pots and metal drums cast shadows almost Satanic around the dark figures of men moving to and fro under still dark skies in the early morning hours of winter.

Women and children tried to avoid hearing the death squeal of hogs destined for the smokehouse. Husky men and teenagers doused newly killed hogs into vats of steaming water, then scraped off the bristles in long deft strokes, revealing rough textured, pinkish-white skin beneath. Somehow, or at least my recollections are gratefully such, fathers and older sons always managed to complete these more gruesome steps before the pale winter sun revealed the slaughter in all its vividness

Breakfast over, men, women and children pitched in to do their share in transforming whole carcasses hanging upside down from poles to what would eventually be appetizing products for the dinner table.

What child watching has not been mesmerized by the unbelievable revelation of blue-glazed intestines, dark ruby livers and hearts cascading into metal bugs beneath carcasses, landing with a resounding glutinous slurp as the final moist filaments were severed from the hogs interiors.Pennies Became Scarce In 43

(Editors note: The following item was taken from the Sept. 28, 1943 edition of llie Daily Reflector.)

Pennies, looked upon by so many as almost worthless coins except for the purpose of paying nuisance taxes and the like, are sorely needed in this community and persons who have quantities of them on hand are urged to get them into the banks or turn them over to stores in order that they might get into circulation.

This process completed, women took over, working with acquired skill, teaching timid young farm wives the fine art of cleaning and recleaning the long unraveled skeins of intestines that were to end up as a prized southern delicacy, chitterlings; with outer tissues saved aside for sausage casings.

As the day wore on, the neighborhoods most gifted meat cutters quartered and carved hams and shoulders, fatback and pieces suitable for smoking as bacon, backbone and spareribs.

Prized excess fat, trimmed and cut into small cubes, went into washpots to be boiled, and then further rendered in presses to be collected into tins as pure lard. The dried, crispy residue of rendering, cracklings, were good for eating unadorned or better yet for mixing with water ground meal to make crackling bread.

Few things can quite match the steamy aroma permeating the air at hog killing time; a powerful fragrance concocted of pungent odors of blood and freshly killed meat, of sweetish bubbling hot fat and bittersweet smell of burning wood.

By the time the late afternoon sun cast long shadows across stubble filled winter fields, hog killing activities would reach the concluding stages. While men carried meat into the smokehouse, packing it down in barrells, big ceramic crocks and heavy wooden boxes filled with a brine solution of salt and water, tired farm women scrubbed and cleaned tubs and tables.

There was not money payment involved for the long day of hard work. Instead, neighbors lugged home bundles of freshies, a word commonly used for gifts of sausage, livers, or other parts of the processed hogs they chose as token payment for their share of the work

Pea-Poppings Actually a gathering of people held for the purpose of shelling out seed peanuts for spring planting, this community event is better known by the term pea poppings.

More festive in character than wood cuttings or hog killings, pea poppins usually took place between Thanksgiving and Christmas, after peanuts had dried sufficiently to permit easy shelling As a rule, neighbors divided themselves into two groups at the house of the host. Young courting couples gathered in the parlor; married couples and children occupied the kitchen and dining room areas. Not surprisingly, the courting couples spent more time playing parlor games than in shelling a respectable quantity of peanuts. Before everybody got too tired, the hostess farmwife busied herself for the climax of the evening, setting out ingredients for candy making. When everything was in readiness, young and old alike joined in the fun of pulling taffy and making big pans of peanut brittle.

This rural social custom, like so many others, fell by the wayside with introduction of more efficient methods of securing seed peanuts for the coming year.

Tobacco Harvesting Around Greenville and throughout eastern North Carolina, putting in tobacco has traditionally been the term used to describe tobacco harvesting.

Until a couple of decades ago, labor and economic factors dictated a pooling of neighborhood resources to get tobacco harvested Even larger farm families seldom had enough hands or work age laboreres within their own family to harvest a tobacco crop without the help of neighr bors.

Since the tobacco harvest season falls in the long summer day, beginning hours were earlysome farmers prided themselves on a 4 a.m. start, taking out sticks of cured tobacco from the barn to leave it empty for the days coming harvest of green leaves.

Unlike other collective activities conducted in rural areas, farm children played a prominent role in assisting. School was out, and children as young as ten could do their part, usually handing bundles of tobacco to loopers.

While the women cleaned up behind breakfast and got food in readiness for lunch, the men went to the tobacco fleld to begin breaking leaves from the stalk.

Farm boys traditionally were assigend the most glamorous task in tibacco harvesting, that

of transporting loads of tobacco leaves from the field to the barn. Called trucking, the person with this job was known as the trucker. Tobacco trucks in reality are long, narrow flat-bed wooden affairs with small, metal rimmed wooden wheels. Six, more often eight holes along the sides of the truck are utilized for placing upright pegs or wooden sticks topped by a sharpened nail. A long curtain, usually of burlap bags sewn together, was wrapped around the pegs and was secured by spiking the curtain on the projecting nails. This served to form a container where breakers placed armloads of leaves until the truck was filled.

A truck was pulled bt a single mule. It wa^ a matter of pride to the young trucker that he could display dazzling skill in not letting the top heavy load overturn.

Again, tradition dictated that usually the loopers were women. Loopers is the name given to persons string-tying bundles of four or five leaves to the stick, which in turn was held in place on a simple wooden device known as the horse. Most loopers were assigned two handers, persons who took leaves from the truck and passed them on to the loopers.

Although a cooperative venture, the festive element became much more pronounced when the days work was finished and night fell. The first night after harvest, fires in the furnaces of barns were stoked carefully to keep temperatures low so that the green tobacco could dry out before the temperature was raised to curing levelscalled going up.

For the three to four nights needed to cure a barn of tobacco, tobacco barns were social centers for rural neighborhoods. 'The farmer or his sons took turns in staying at the barn to keep the two long brick furnaces stoked with just the right amount of wood to maintain even temperatures.

This task, though demanding periodic attention, left plenty of time for card games, checkers, or telling tall tales.

Each neighborhood seemed to have at least one accomplished chronicler of ghost tales who could be depended on to hold a gathering of young, children spellbound.

Young people did much of their summer courting by the flickering light of furnace fires. In the final years of wood<uring before most farmers switched to oil. portable battery operated radios were popular. In the heyday of radio in the late 30s and during the 40s, strains of music from broadcasts of The Grand Ole Opry, the Hit Parade and other music programs could be heard from almost any bam shelter during the tobacco harvest season. More likely than not, someone in the neighborhood was an accomplisheo harmonica or guitar player.

Night gatherings of neighbors under tobacco barn shelters also meant long card games for the men, with the ladies bringing fruits and vegetables to prepare for canning. Children amused themselves by darting in and out of the shadows, playing hide-and-seek or some other popular childrens game.

Todays Scene Today, farmers cure tobacco by automatic oil curers, except for a rare farmer here and there who still holds out for the old' method.

Television viewing has replaced radio and home-made music for rural entertainment in most instancesat least the younger generation of guitar players have turned to electronic rock music in place of folk songs and the nfusic of Stephen Collins Foster played by their fathers and grandfathers.

Activities covered here are but the most important of any number of community activities that involved the gathering together of several farm families for the practical purpose of pooling labor and equipment.

TTie element of festivity was a neighborly bonus that provided pleasure, but never became more important than the goal of getting work done.

Few rural families today would willingly exchange modern amenities for less convenient, if more picturesque, ways of living.

Nonetheless, looking back does bring the comfortable glow of remembrance with moments of enjoyment lingering pleasantly among recollections of gruelling hours of hard work.

A Member Of Original Faculty

Editor's note: The following article is reprinted from the May 19. 1958 edition of The Daily Reflector Miss Kate Watkins Lewis died on Aug. 10.1971 at the age of 92

Ry EVERETTE PARKER Reflector Staff W rlter Theyre just too progressive for me. I cant keep up with them anymore. ^

So said Miss Kate Watkins Lewis as she leaned back in her rocking chair She was speaking about East Carolina College and its rapid growth during the past decade

Miss Lewis who resides at 205 .Summit Street is the last living member of the original faculty of the College She has seen many changes since the school opened here in 1909 on the outskirts of town where cotton once grew.

Why 1 can remember when I could look out of my classroom \Jtindow in the Austin Building and see all the way down to the river." she said Back in those days there were no houses on this side of to^ii beyond the

business district.

Times have really changed, havent they?

Miss Lewis, who will be 80 years old in October, came here as an art teacher in the Greenville city schools a year before the College opened its doors. The following year she joined the faculty of the East Carolina Teachers Training School, teaching art three days a week.

1 used to teach at the College and then teach three days in the city schools. she explained. For two years she taught this six-day schedule before becoming a fulltime member of the college faculty

The original members of the faculty were W .H Ragsdale. C. W Wilson and Herbert E. Austin, Miss Mamie E. Jenkins. Miss Maria D. Graham. Miss Sallie Joyner Davis. Miss Birdie McKinney. Mrs. Jennie M. Ogden, Miss Fannie Bishop and Miss l^ewis. One by one they died leaving Miss Lewis alone to celebrate the colleges 50th anniversary

College's Early Days Reminiscing about the early days of her teaching at the local College. Miss Lewis recalled that the original campus consisted of three buildings. West I'iormitory (now Wilson), East Dormitory (now Ragsdale) and the Administration Building (now Austin) where all the classes were taught and offices were maintained Oh yes. she stated, there were other buildings but they were not very large. She explained there was a laundry, a Post Office. Dining Hall and powerhouse. The infirmary was located in the building now known as Mamie E. Jenkins .Alumni Hall.

Miss Lewis recalled that 19 hoys and 159 girls were enrolled at the college the first year. The boys stayed in the East Dorm and the girls in the West Dorm At that time there were no wings on the East Dorm because there was more than enough room to accommodate the men.

Finally, she said, the school progressed enough to have

another dorm and Fleming was built for girls. About that time World War I came along and most of the men went away to fight. Then all the dorms were converted for use by the women students and the remaining men had to room in town, according to Miss I>ewis.

The college was originally founded to train teachers for schools in North Carolina. Miss Lewis noted. Along about that time there were only a few qualified teachers and something had to be done to raise the educational standards.

The only requirements for one class set up by Robert H. Wright, who was first President at the College, was the student be 17 years of age and state that he or she was going to teach the next school year. This class was maintained for several years until the number of teachers in the state grew to meet the needs of its schools.

Miss Lewis noted that the situation was so bad at one time that manv teachers had no

training at all in their profession. Thank God that has all changed now, she stated.

Retired In 1948

Miss Lewis retired as an active teacher on the East Carolina College faculty in 1946. Since that time she has been busy, as she put it keeping house, at home on Summitt Street which she moved into in 1941.

Ive been following the goings on over there since I left, she said. But Ill tell you theyre just too progressive for me now!

A native of Middleton, North Carolina. Miss Lewis graduated from Peace College in Raleigh in 1896. Following her graduation she studied at the University of North Carolina and the l^niversity of Virginia. While at the Virginia school she became interested in public school art.

Later she graduated from the Snow-Froedich Art School in Chicago and the Boothbay Harbor School of Art in Maine.

She taught grade school in Goldsboro for three years and in Henderson for two years before coming here as an art teacher in the city schools system. Before coming here Miss Lewis said she had received two letters in reference to an art teaching job, one from here and other from Rocky Mount. She said she debated for a long time before accepting the Greenville job.

Guess I was divinely guided, she commented.

When asked what she would do if she had her life to live over she said, Why I would teach of course!

I got a lot of satisfaction from teaching. she added. I loved the profession and especially working with youngsters.

I am proud of the profession and just as proud of East Carolina College. They have come a long way since those early days when I used to take Sunday afternoon strolls around the campus before the first three

buildings were completed. Miss Lewis will be 80 years old

. .and 1 am sure there is in October. I am proud to tell it more progress to come. too. she said.

Fitt Health Dept. Has Grown

By CARL L. TVER Reflector Staff Writer

From a small staff made up of only a health superintendent to a staff of three in the 1930s to the the present staff of over 50, Pitt Countys Health Department has grown into an adequate health service organization.

Springing from the State Health Department which was established in 1877, the county department is an official governmental public agency charged with the responsibility of administering health laws and regulations directed toward the protection and improvement of the health of the citizens of Pitt County.

Pitt Countys department was established sometime in 1917, the exact date is not known because records have not been maintained by the state or county departments on the initial development of the facility.

The primary concern of the department in its early years was the enforcement of state public health laws regarding sanitation, and the establishment of programs to aid expectant mothers, their offspring and young children. Venereal diseases were also attacked by the department in its early development stages.

Pitt Countys department was established in 1917 according to the State Departments records library. Some mention of the department was made in the minutes of the May 14, 1917 meeting of the county commissioner when the assistant health officer asked the commissioners for a sum, equal to that offered by the state, to correct physical defects in school children.

In 1936 the State Health Bulletin made note of the opening of a maternity and infancy care clinic in Greenville in

the month of October

From this point until the early 1950s there is little record of the programs undertaken by the local department, however, it is known that the primary concern was the enforcement of sanitation laws, care for infants, children and expectant mothers and the control of venereal diseases.

From 1950 to 1960, the development of specific programs to tackle health problems expanded and a number of problem health areas were brought under control.

However, along with tackling these problems one of the primary functions of the department was, as it is today, the education of the population on health matters more so than a treatment program.

By 1949 every county in the state had a local health department. Pitt Countys department operated on a

budget of $58,195 in 1950, while the 1974-75 budget is $691,656.90, supporting a staff, when at maximum strength, of 59 persons.

Three major health problems were tackled in the early part of 1953. tuberculosis, the control of rabies and the sanitation of milk production facilities.

Mobile vans went throughout the county beginning in March of 1953 offering free x-rays to the citizens. Today active TB cases are infrequent, while the treatment of persons infected with the inactive germ is a major program still maintained.

Also in March of 1953 a rabies vaccination program was organized and a rabies control officer went throughout the county, as is done today, vaccinating animals.

The year 1955 saw the beginning of a massive polio vaccination program which eventually brought the disease^Shipping Tobacco to the 4 Points of the GlobeHappy 200th^ Anniversary To GreenvillePACKERS EXPORTERSBUYERS

under control. After a slow response by the public, the death of several youths in the county within a short period of time in early 1956 caused a large number of citizens to descend on the health clinics for their immunizations.

Also in 1956, after much discussion, a bond issue was passed which allowed the fluoridation of the various community water systems, a major step forward in dental care.

In 1%1, a tetanus toxoid vaccination drive was started, and later in the 60s a family planning program.

All of the services described are still maintained today, along with expanded facilities, such as the latest Environmental Health division.

The present Health Depart

ment is composed of three divisions. Administrative, Environmental Health and Personal Health. The Environmental Health Division provides protection and monitoring in the area of sanitation, soil and water protection, food and drink monitoring and protection, as well as rodent and insect control.

The Personal Health Division provides preventive clinical services for mothers, infants and children, immunizations, family planning services,

tuberculosis and venereal disease control programs. It is also active in school health programs and supervises a limited home visiting program in collaboration with the East

SCS District Formed In 1942

By Bi.ANCHK llARDKK Heflector Staff Writer

Conservation practices and assistance have been offered to the people of Pitt County since May 12, 1942, when the Coastal Plain Soil and Water Conservation District was organized The Pitt Soil and Water Conservation District was one of

four districts formed on Nov. 15, 1%3, when the Coastal Plain district was divided into individual county districts.

According to Roy Beck, district conservationist, the local district is chartered as a governmental subdivision of the State of North Carolina, and is charged with the responsibility of developing and carrying out a program of soil and water

JOHN LAWSON S ACCOUNT OF ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL CONDITIONS IN THE COLONY John Lawson, explorer, surveyor, historian, and cofounder of New Bern, came to America in 1700. On December 28 of that year he set out on a thousand mile travel through the Indian country into North Carolina. A large part of his journey was along the Catawba path. He probably followed this trail as far as the present town of Hillsboro. Then he turned to the southeast and followed the Neuse for more than a hundred miles, probably passing near the present site of Goldsboro. He crossed the Contentnea near Grifton and the Tar at Greenville, and then proceeded to the English settlement on the Pampticough River. In September, 1711, he was captured by the Indians and burned at the stake in the Indian town of Catechna, near the present town of Snow Hill, in Greene county. De Graffenried, wlio had been taken captive at the same time, was freed by the Indians.

l>awsons A New Voyage to Carolina, published in London in 1709, consisted of three parts: (1) Journal of a thousand miles travel; (2) Description of North Carolina; (3) An Account of the Indians of North Carolina.

The Chriftian Natives of Carolina are a ftraight, clean-limbd People; the Children being feldom or never troubled with Rickets, or those other Diftempers, that the Europeans are vifited withal. . . . The Vicinity of the Sun makes Impreffion on the Men. who labour out of doors, or ufe the Water. As for thofe Women, that do not expofe themselves to the Weather, they are often very fair, and generally as well featurd, as you fhall fee any where, and have very brisk charming Eyes, which fets them off to Advantage. They marry very young; fome at Thirteen or Fourteen; and She that ftays till Twenty is reckond a ftale Maid; which is a very indifferent Character in that warm Country. The Women are very fruitful, moft Houses being full of Little Ones. It has been ob-fervd that Women long marryd and without Children, in other Places, have removd to (arolina and become joyful Mothers . .. Many of the Women are very handy in Canoes, and will manage them with great Dexterity and Skill, which they become accuftomed to in this watry Country. They are ready to help their Husbands in any fervile Work.'as Planting when the Seafon of the Weather requires Expedition; Pride feldom banifhing good Housewifry. The Girls are not bred up to the Wlieel, and Sewing only; but the Dairy and the

Affairs of the House they very well acquined withal; . . . The Children of both Sexes are very docile, and learn anything with a great deal of Eafe and Method . . The young Men are commonly of a bafhful, fober Behavior; few proving Prodigals, to confume what the Induftry of their Parents has left them, but commonly improve it.

conservation in Pitt County.

The Pitt County district is governed by a five-man board of supervisors, elected in a nonpartisan election beginning this year. Serving as superivsors currently are: Robert G. Little, chairman; F. Curtis Martin, vice president; Ralph C. Tucker, secretary-treasurer; Truman W. Haddock and Moses W. Moye.

Supervisors who have served since the district was formed include Arch Glanagan, Oscar Speight, Hugh Winslow, Brantley Speight, Louis Lane and W.C. House.

Prior to 1965, the conservation district included only rural areas. During the year 1965, the boundaries were changed to include corporated towns, government-owned lands and thickly-built areas.

The objectives of SCS include: land-use planning; collection

One Building Had ManyUses

and disposal of solid waste; flood plain zoning; recreation program for the county; erosion control, forestry program; reclamation of surface mines; watershed projects; improvement of water quality; wildlife improvements; control of pollution; mosquito control; and the protection of r^re and endangered species.

According to SCS records, CJeorge Washington and Thomas Jefferson talked about conservation measures. They discusses erosion control, adding muck to road areas, hillside ditching and contouring, Beck said.

In 1928, the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued a bulletin entitled Soil ErosionA National Menace by Hugh H. Bennett and W.R. Chapline. The bulletin gave a comprehensive appraisal of erosion problems throughout the nation.

During December of 1928, Congress adopted the Buchanan Amendment to the Agricultural Appropriations Bill and launched a nationwide program to save Americas agricultural land from slow impovershiment

Between the years of 1935 and 1941, Civilian Conservation Corps crews were assigned to erosion-control work to help with the job of establishing soil conservation demonstrations.

The SCS district law was developed in 1936 and North Carolina adopted it in 1937 and named the organization the Soil and Water Conservation Districts of North Carolina. The first SCS district in the nation was established in North Carolina in Anson County.

Some work accomplishments listed by the Pitt Soil and Water Conservation District for the past year include; 46 new cooperators; 53 conservation

plans; 79 special soil inventories and evaluations; 48 units of government were assisted; two groups were assisted in site selection for public facilities; 49,595 feet of drainage was installed; 75 acres of woodland site preparation and tree planting; 55,750 feet of access road; 12,500 acres of cover cropping; 450 acres of new contour farming; and 7,000 feet of diversion.

Other projects for the year included: 35,000 feet of field borders; 30 structures for water control; eight acres of grassed waterway; 205,787 feet of drains (tile and tubing); land adequately treated included 3,910 feet; wildlife upland management totaled 1,566 feet; and streambank protection totaled 12,700 feet

Pitt County Soil and Water Conservation District has three full-time employees. In addition to Beck, workers include

Charles Whitaker, soil conservationist, and Elmer Bland, SCS technician.

District employees paid by the Pitt County Commissioners include; Mrs. Ruth Smith, district office manager; Lonnie Faulkner and Charles Laucher, district technicians.

One of the most recent projects of the Pitt Soil and Water Conservation District has been participation in the Resource Conservation and Development Projecta federally-assisted local program for the development and wise use of natural resources in the five-county region.

The local organization also adds in conservation education in the area schools. Con

servation booklets are given each year to all elementary school children in the county. A land judging contest is held each year by the Future Farmers of

America. An outdoor classroom was established in a county school where emphasis was placed on campus beautification and a nature trail was established.

Also, beginning this year, the Pitt Soil and Water Conservation District reviews mobile home park plans and housing subdivision plats for drainage and erosion control needs before they are passed on by the Pitt County Planning Board, Beck said.

Other agencies which contribute to the success of the Pitt Soil and Water District include: the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service; Agricultural Extension Service; Pitt County Health department; North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission; the Office of Water and Air Resources; and the Farmers Home Administration

. . . And as for feveral Productions of other Countries, much in the fame Latitude, we. may expect, with good Management, they will become familiar to us, as Wine, Oil, Fruit. Silk, and other profitable Commodities, such as Drugs, Dyes. he. And at present, the Curious may have a large Field to fatisfy and divert themfelves in, as Collections of ftrange, .Beasts, Birds, Insects, Reptiles, Shells, Fifhes, Minerals, Herbs, Flowers, Plants, Shurbs, intricate Roots, Gums, Tears, Rozins, Dyes and Stones, with several other that yield Satisfaction and Profit to those whose Inclinations tend that Way. . . .

The Fishing-Trade in Carolina might be carried on to great Advantage confidering how many Sorts of excellent Fifh our Sound and Rivers afford, which cure very well with Salt, as has been experienced by fome fmall Quantities, which have been fent abroad and yielded a good Price.

.. .Great Plenty is generally the Ruin of Industry. Thus our Merchants are not many, nor have thofe few there be, applyd themselves to the European Trade. The Planter fits contended at home, whilft his Oxen thrive and grow fat, and his Stocks daily increase; the fatted Porklets and Poultry are easily raifd to his Table, and his Orchard affords him Liquor, fo that he eats and drinks away the Cares of the world, and defires no greater Happinefs than that which he daily enjoys. Whereas, not only the European, but also the Indian-Trade, we might be carried on to a great Profit, becaufe we lie as fairly for the Body of Indians as any fet-tlement in English-America; ...

One great advantage of North-Carollna is. That we are not a Frontier, and near the Enemy, which proves very chargeable and troublefome in a time of War, to those Colonies that are fo fea ted. Another great Advantage comes from its being near Virginia, where we come often to a good Market. John Lawson. A New Voyage to Carolina, pp. 84-88.

Gasoline Price War In 1961

(Editors note: The following items were taken from the Nov. 27. 1961 edition of The Dally Reflector.)

Sharply competitive gasoline merchandising held local retail prices for regular gasoline at below 20 cents per gallon today Major company outlets had 19.9 cents-per-gallon signs posted Independents were selling regular grade gasoline for 18 9 cents Greenville area distributors expressed themselves as uncertain when the price decline would end. All local jobbers contacted indicated the price is -state-wide though low prices vary with the particular areas of the state.

Newspapers Part Of Local History

By TOM BAINES Reflector Staff Writer

While radio and television in Pitt County is a relatively recent innovation, the written media here dates back to the early 1880s when the countys first newspaper was founded

And although The Gazette, founded in Greenville in the 1830s by John Brown, failed to make a go of it in the small, rural community of only a few hundred. Printer Brown had (toured the foundation for later newspaper development in Pitt County.

E^rly accounts concerning the Gazette indicate that the town was not large enough at the time to support a newspaper venture. The Gazette apparently ceased publication after only a short period of time

As Greenville grew in size and population sufficient enough to encourage and merit another newspaper. The Express was established in 1877 by L. Thomas and Company. The paper operated until Dec. 31. 1881 under the direction of Thomas. Julian R. Whichard and David Jordan Whichard. At 16. David Whichard became the youngest newspaper editor in the state.

On Jan. 26, 1882. Julian and David Whichard published the first edition of their own weekly. The Eastern Reflector which served the area until the beginning of World War I when it was absorbed by The Daily Reflector.

In 1885, Julian Whichard, the older of the two Whichard brothers, had moved out of the county to pursue another newspaper venture and David Whichard became publisher and owner of the weekly newspaper.

Whichard began publication of The Daily Reflector, on a trial basis, on Dec. 10. 1894, with a small, four page edition.

The publisher said in an editorial in that first edition that enlargement of the newspaper and success of the venture would rest entirely with the people, hoping that everyone will look upon it as his paper, and take such pride in establishing a daily paper here as to extend a helping hand

The Reflector was first located in a wooden structure on Pitt Street between Second and Third Streets. Since that first location, the newspaper has published in buildings near Five Points, and on the comer of Third and Evans Streets The Reflector moved into new quarters at its current location on Cotanche Street in 1956 and has since expanded the overall plant

David Jordan Whichard served as editor and publisher of

The Daily Reflector until 1919 when his son, David Julian N^'hichard. purchased the paper David Julian Whichard had assumed management of the paper in 1913 when his father was named postmaster of Greenville and with the purchase of the publication in July of 1919. he became editor and publisher. Whichard is currently chairman of the board of The Daily Reflector while his sons. David Jordan and John S l\hichard, are co-publishers.

In addition to The Reflector, the county also had other newspapers in the 1890's although they lasted only a short time. Ray M Busier published The Home Visitor in Winterville and The Grifton Star was published by Hugh Lancaster. Andrew Joyner began publishing The Index, a weekly in 1894 and the paper was purchased by Henry T. King in 1895. King changed the name of the paper to Kings Weekly.

In the early 1900s King published a daily newspaper, the Dollar Daily, for a brief period before it folded.

As the 1900s progressed, a series of journals appeared in Pitt County and although few existed for more than a couple of years, they all had an impact on Pitt journalism

The Greenville News was founded in 1917 by a stock company directed by Jim Mayo, publisher of the Washington Daily News, J. C. Lanier and E. G. Flanagan of Greenville. John A. Park, publisher of the Raleigh Times, bought, the Greenville News in 1920 and it became the Greenville Morning News. The morning publication was discontinued in 1922.

Joe Fisher, who had been employed by the Greenville News, opened The Pitt County Record shortly after publication of The News ceased and he operated the paper for a brief time before it folded. The paper was later reopened by Joe Burgess and published in Ayden for a short time.

Another newspaper called The Greenville News appeared here in 1928 with Henry W. Renfrew of Renfrew Printing Co. guiding the operation of the semiweekly. Charles F. Carroll became the editor of the paper around 1929 as the name of the paper was changed to the Greenville News Leader. The life of the News Leader was also short as publication ceased early in the 1930s

W. E. Hooks of Ayden revived the pap>er just before 1936 and he soon sold the journal to J. A. Staton of Ayden who later changed it to a morning daily. Ownership changed once again w'hen David W. Mosier obtained

.Newspaper Was Named

By I).J. WHICHARD. JR

Chairman of The Board The Daily Reflector, Inc.

rrom I he Daily Reflector June 29. 19.56)

Many times we have been asked where this newspaper got the name Reflector and whether it was original or copied from some other newspaper We have no proof of the answer. but a check of the very few newspapers in the country today by that name reveals that none of them had come into existence at the time The Reflector started It is highly possible that the name like the pepers motto was the brainchild of one of the group of young men who gathered in my grandmothers schoolhouse on that night in January 1882 to get* out the first issue of Greenvilles newest and at that moment only newspaper. The Greenville Express, published by one L Thomas had voluntarily gone out of business with the close of the year 1891 My father the late David Jordan Whichard age 19, and his brother the late Julian R Whichard, a rew years older, who had worked Ml the Express for about three ,rears, procured some of the equipment from the closed lewspaper and carted it around o their mothers schoolhouse to to into the printing business for hemselves

We do not recall the named of all those present as passed down to us from our forebears, but we do remember the late Robert L. Humber, father of Dr Robert Lee Humber of this city, was said to have performed the task of helping move and errect the machinery and was on hand to put it into operation for the first issue

About the time the front page of this memorable edition was ready for the hand press someone in the group remarked that the newspaper should have a fitting motto After a brief discussion, the late A L Blow, fathenof Mrs I^ottie Butner and Mrs W M .Scales, of this city, came up with Truth in Preference To Fiction Those present were said to have readily agreed that such a motto would be a good one for the new paper to live up to so the wording was placed on the front page immediately below the masthead and has continued throughout all these years to occupy that position

Whether the name Reflector likewise came about from a roundtable discussion among the group present that night or whether it had been decided upon prior to that night we do not knoi^ There may be a reference to the origin of name in the early files of the paper but so far we have not been able to locate it

controlling interest in the paper 1 H. Morris assumed the editorship of the paper when Mosier entered service during World War II and the operation continued until August of 1944.

The Greenville Gazette, backed by investors from Fayetteville and Richmond. Va.. published its first edition in Greenville on March 21,1968 as a Thursday morning weekly. Published by CPM Publishing Co.. from offices at 515 Dickinson Avenue. The newspaper changed to a Saturday publishing date in May of 1968 and published its final edition on Aug. 10, 1968.

Greenville was not the only town in Pitt County that inspred the development of journalism. The Farmville Enterprise was founded in 1910 by John T. Thorne and G. A. Jones. Stockholders in the Enterprise were A C. Monk. W. A. Pollard and Co., and R. L. Davis and Brothers

G. A. Alex Rouse, manager of the Snow Hill Publishing Co., accepted the position as editor and manager of the weekly in June of 1911 and soon acquired the assets and liabilities of The Enterprise from stock holders Rouse Formed the Rouse Printery which published the paper. J. B. Hockaday joined the Enterprise in 1947 and has since become editor, a position he now holds.

In 1912. Ayden got its initial taste of local newspapering as The Ayden Dispatch began publication as a weekly under the guidance of Walter Buck

A fire in 1913 destroyed the plant in which the Dispatch was published and operations were resumed in the plant of the Ayden Free Will Baptist Printing Co

John C. Andrews purchased The Dispatch from W'. E. Hooks in 1917 and served as owner and editor of the business for more than 30 years. During Andrews tenure as owner. The Dispatch changed from a twice weekly publication to a weekly edition. When Andrews died, his wife. Mrs. J. C. Andrews of Ayden and their children, John C. Jr. and Margaret, assumed ownership of the paper and Andrews Printing Co

The Ayden Printing Co. purchased the paper in 955 with Charles Deal serving as manager and editor. The Rev. Floyd Cherry of Greenville bought The Dispatch around 1957 and operated the paper approximately one year before J. Russell Wooten of Ayden bought out The Dispatch in 1958. Wooten liquidated the paper, selling the stock and equipment, and began publication of the Ayden News Leader in February 1962. The weekly paper has been in operation since that time.

In 1959. C. G. Simmons Sr. of Kinston founded the Ayden Tribune and the weekly has been published continuously since that time. The Tribune is printed in Grifton

Simmons also founded the Grifton Times and published the first edition of the paper on Aug. 14. 1953 The weekly was printed initially in Kinston but the operation was soon moved to new offices in Grifton where it has been published up until the present time.

Bethel has also had an impact on Pitt journalism The Bethel Post, published by Bob Lewis, began its circulation in 1951 but the paper ceased operations in 1954.

In 1965, Bethel again had a newspaper as Julius Creech of Tarboro initiated publication of the Bethel Herald. Printed in Tarboro by Tarboro Printing Co.. The herald has continued to serve the tri-county area of Pitt, Martin and Edgecombe Coun-

Greenville and Pitt County gained its first television station in December of 1953 when a group of area citizens with stock in Carolina Broadcasting System initiated the operation of WNCT-TV, Channel 9.

Roy H Park bought the station in March of l%2 and the broadcasting firm has operated the local station continuously since that time >

^ WUNK-TV. part of the Educational Television System of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, began transmitting on May 1,1972 from its new Channel 25 site near Farmville. The station, one of eight main transmitting sites on the UNC network, serves as a control point for broadcasts over the eastern part of the state.

In 1963. Roy Park bought WGTC from Greenville Radio Co and soon changed the stations call letters to WNCT-AM W'NCT-FM went on the air in December of 1963 as Park expanded the scope of the local broadcasting facility.

WNCT-TV was the first television station to open east of Raleigh and WNCT-FM gave the east its first FM station.

In October of 1948. according to the FCC in Washington, D. C., Radio Station WOOW was licensed to operate in Greenville. Buford Broadcasting Co. filed the application. In May of 1966. Danny Jacobson purchased the station from Charles Springer and he has continued to operate the broadcasting facility. Today. WOOW is the only radio station in the area with a window-front control room and is the only downtown radio station in Greenville.

WBTC-Radio went on the air in Farmville in December of 1959 under the direction of Jim Mayo. Carl Venters bought the business in July of 1960 and changed the call letters to WFAG. In 1972, Venters left Farmville and joined Durham Life Broadcasting in Raleigh with WPTF and WQDR Venters sold the controlling interest in Farmville Broadcasting Co. to Gene Gray in July of 1974 and Gray has since been elected president and general manager.

Farmville Broadcasting entered a new venture in March of 1974 when WRQU-FM-Stereo went on the air in Farmville.

The Fox brothers of Oxford put WKTB-Radio on the air here in 1963. The call letters were changed to WTXY in 1964 and the station operated as WPXY until it went off to the air near the end of May of this year

Greenville Broadcasting Co., headed by Ralph Gardner, president and general manager, purchased the license formerly held by W'PXY and began broadcasting on June 16 as a new station under the call letters WGNL

City Govm^t Structure Changes

From the year of Greenvilles pact required Evans to give his

charteringand at least two schools of thought contest the actual dateto the present time, city government has undergone constant growth and change, both in structure and in function.

But it is ironic that in weighing the burdens of the governing body in its infant stage with the present system, it appears that our early commissioners were faced with the heaviest task.

In 1771, during a November session of the state General Assembly in New Bern, an act

consent to the use of his land for the tow'n of Martinborough and that consent was not given in court prior to his death.

Others argue that with the 1774 amendment that authorized Evans widow to consent to the lot dispersement as directed under the 1771 pact, the early charter was valid.

The amendment further directed that five commissioners. which in 1774 included three of the original members and two replacements.

was passed calling for a town to have the court, prison and stocks

be laid out on a 100-acre tract owned by Richard Evans, on the south bank of the Tar River in Pitt County.

The charter directed that upon the consent of Evans in court, five local men who were appointed commissioners would have the authority to lay out the property into half-acre lots in establishing Martinborough in the name of Governor Josiah Martin.

The five commissioners were also vested with the power to sell the lots ot local citizens on behald of Evans.

Provisions were enacted for the continued succession of the

moved from the residence of John Hardee some three miles east to Martinborough.

Colonial law provided for the election of five commissioners on the first Thursdya in May of 1775 and thereafter annually, as a section of the 1774 amendment.

The election process was organized to provide that the five men with the greatest number of suffrages be commissioners for the coming year with the power and authority to remove nuisances, keep the streets of the town in repair, and make orders in governing Martinborough.

the province, or were found incompetent, the remaining members of the board would elect replacements.

With Evans dying before his consent was given in court, an amendment was passed to the original act in 1774 giving authority to his widow, Susannah Evans, as legal heir, to consent to the provisions of the act of 1771. The commissioners

On Jan. 6, 1787, the original charter was again amended to change the name of the town from Martinborough to Greensville. in honor of Revolusitonary War General Nathaniel Greene, hero of the Battle of Guilford Courthouse.

Some contend today that the town charter providing that the

municipal affairs of Greenville, since called with the change of spelling through the years, be run by a mayor and six coun-cilmen, known as the Board of Councilmen.

The amendment stipulated that the three voting wards of the town elect two councilmen each, on the first Monday in May, 1883 and each year following, for one year terms. The councilmen were given the authority under the charter to elect replacements in the event vacancies occurred.

The act further provided that the six councilmen elect from outside the board a mayor to serve for one year. 'The mayor, it was noted, would preside at board meetings but would not vote unless a tie vote developed among the councilmen.

Provision for the election of a mayor pro tempore from among the ranks of the councilmen was also included, as was the election of a treasurer from within' the governing body. A clerk and policemen from outside the board were elected by the councilmen, according to the amendment.

The board of councilmen was given the power in 1883 to fix the salaries of all officers elected by the board, including the mayor whose salary was directed not to be less than $50 or more than $100 annually.

The board of commissioners form of town government was ushered out with the consolidation of the 1883 amendment but officials in office at the time of the act were directed to remain in office until the council elections, occurring on the first Monday in May as under previous acts.

Powers of the board of councilmen were expanded under the new law to include the authority to provide water by digging and keeping in repair wells, provide for repairing and

cleaning the streets, regulate the market, take all proper means to prevent and extinguish fires, make regulations to cause the due observance of Sunday. . and execute,ordinances.

The mayor was also given the power and authorities, within the town limits, of justice of the peace and could cause to be arrested and detained criminals who fly to the town from other states for counties. . . He was also empowered within the same limits as a judicial officer all the power, jurisdiction and authority of a justice of the peace. . .

An election for ratification of the act of 1883 was also directed for the second Monday in April in Greenville.

In February of 1889, the towns charter was amended to include a fourth ward and to provide for the election of councilmen from each ward. Under the terms of the amendemnt, the first and fourth wards were authorized to elect one councilman each while the second and third wards elected two councilmen each.

Further growth and expansion of the local government took place in 1899 when the General Assembly passed an act of amendment and consolidation of the towns charter directing that the affairs of Greenville be managed by a mayor and eight aldermen.

In acting to change from the councilman form of government, the Assembly stipulated that the aldermen be chosen annually on the first Monday in June of each year. The board of aldermen was directed to choose from outside their ranks a mayor and tax collector, and also a treasurer from among their number.

In addition, the amet^ment created an additional ward for voting purposes and provided for the election of one alderman each from the first and fifth wards, and two aldermen each

Midwives Played Big Role In Local Lives

By CAROL B. TVER Reflector SUff Writer Many a Pitt County child grew up thinking little brothers and sisters came in the midwives little black bags.

Births came oftener to most families than they do now, and most were at home. Prior to 1920 there was no hospital in Pitt County. A female relative or a friend sometimes attended the woman giving birth, or a granny woman or midwife was called if there was one available. Only in emergencies were physicians called to attend deliveries.

Mrs. Bessie Ward Harris, who lives on Rt. 5. Greenville was a midwife for 34 years, retiring only about two years ago. Of course, she was one of the later midwives, beginning work only

in the late 1930s. Hers was an era when there were hospitals and doctors more readily available than in earlier years and when some people dijd have money for the births of their children. 1 helped the poor people, mainly, she said.

During her career as a licensed midwife associated with the Pitt County Health Department, she caught more than 1,000 babies, she believes, though she had lost count. She has book after book, of records of the babies she delivered during later years when the Health Department began requiring that she keep records.

Called By Dreams

Mrs Harris was living in the Lizzie community of Greene County and had three children of

her own when she began to feel that she should be a midwife. I dreamt three times about being a midwife, she said, so I felt like God was calling me to do this. I started working with Dr. W.M. Willis from Farmville. Mrs. Cora Moye was working with him at the time, and I worked with her a while before she retired.

Youre a good midwife, Bessie, Dr. Willis told me. Youre quick on your feet and you know how to go on and do things. He gave me a note to take to the Health Department, recommending me to be a midwife. The nurse there gave me a book to study and told me to get the supplies Id need. I studied and I got the things and I went back. They asked me a lot of questions and I answered them all all right, I guess, because they gave me my license and said, Go to work. People are begging for you.

I didnt miss many weeks and never a month from then till I retired delivering some babies. The mothers had to have their cards from the Health Department, and the family would call me when labor started. Id get in my car and go. You know, in all those nights I drove these Pitt County roads, in rain and snow and what-have-you, I never once had any troublenever even a flat tire. Id say, Lord, you called me for this job, so get me there safely, and when I got there. Id say. Thank yoj^ Jesus.

Natural Childbirth Mrs. Harris used the same faith in divine guidance and protection in dealing with each delivery. A midwife couldnt give anything for pain, she said. All I could do was try to reassure the mothers and rub their stomachs to sooth them a little. I knew the pain was for a purpose, but Id ask the Lord to help each one stand it, and try to help her relax as much as possible, so she wouldnt tire herself out for the final pushing.

I always asked (^, she said, to tell me when I should stop depending on myself to deliver a baby safely and call a doctor. He always did and a doctor never failed to come when I called. I never lost a mother. A few of my babies have been born dead, but Ive never felt any of them died because of

from the second, third and fourth wards.

The powers of the board of alermen were expanded to include a broader area of the city governing stnicture.

The mayor, under the new provision, presided at board meetings but did not vote unless a tie developed. The president pro tern served in the absence of the mayor and in the absence of both the mayor and president pro tern, any member of the board was authorized to preside.

A 1905 amendment to the charter authorized the board of aldermen to consolidate the office of the tax collector, tax list-taker, and clerk of the board and to elect one person to fill the office.

A further amendment in the succession of changes in the Greenville charter took place in 1909 and provided for the election of the mayor at the same time and in the same manner as that of the aldermen for a two-year term. 'The annual salary of the mayor was revised under the act to be not less than $300 or more than $900.

City government continued its developments in the early 1900s and for the first time, by action of the General Assembly in March of 1921, a primary election wsa specified in the town charter for the purpose of selecting mayoral and alder-manic candidates. Date for the primary was set for the first Monday in May of each year.

A significant act of amendment and consolidation of the town charter further redefined the local government in 1929 and in addition to extending the c(Hp<ate limits and realigning the five wards, fixed the salary of the mayor, including the

recreation and playground activities for the city. The amount was increased in 1949 to a figure not exceeding $12,000 as the city charter stated that, A municipal recreation commission is hereby created for the city.

The city charter, as amended to 1949, provided for, on the first Monday in May of each year, a non-partisan election for the piurpose of selecting a mayor and members of the board of aldermen.

The charter stated that all such qualified voters shall be entitled to vote for the candidates for mayor and their ballots shall be deposited by the register and poll holders in one poll box upon which there shall be plainly marked the words, For Mayor; but the candidates for aldermen from the

respective wards shall be voted for only by the qualified voters of the respective wards as

registered. . .

In May of 1953, the city

ushered in a different concept and local citizens elected five members to the New City Council. The citys board of aldermen concluded its final session of business on May 1 in preparation for turning over the city government to the new

coundil on May 6.

Under provisions of the new Council-Manager system, the five persons elected to the City Council (W.L. Whedbee, S. Eugene West. A.C. Ruffin, C.W. Harvey, and John A. Collins Sr.) selected a mayor from among their ranks. Whedbee, who led the balloting for the council seats, was unanimously selected by them for a two-year term as mayor.

In 1939, the official name of the town was changed, as a municipal corporation, to be known as the City of Greenville.

A ninth alderman was added to the board by charter amendment in 1941 as the fifth ward was authorized to elect two aldermen.

An annual appropriation from revenues derived from profits of the municipal power plant and from sources other than taxation not exceeding $5,500 was approved in 1947 to be used towards a supervised system of

Council appointed a manager to work with the board and serve as the principal administrative officer for all city departments. The city manager was also charged with the function of preparing and submitting the annual budget.

Prior to the May election of 1953, the General Assembly passed in April and act amending a chapter of the Public-Local Laws of 1941 pertaining to the Greenville Utilities Commission. 'The amendment stated that, Upon the organization of the City Government of the City

of Greenville following the election to be held in May 1953... the Greenville Utilities Commission shall legally continue to operate under the supervision and management of the city council in the same manner, to the same extent and for the same purposes as it is now under the present mayor and aldermen form of government. . .except that the city manager.. shall at all times be a full member of the Utilities Commission. . .

Mayoral salary was set by action of the 1957 Assembly not to exceed $1,800 annually while the council was authorized to set its own salary at a figure not exceeding $600 per year for each member.

The amendment further stipulated that municipal elections be held on Tuesday following the first Monday in May, in odd-numbered years. All candidates for local offices were elected at large.

A special municipal election in December of 1958 changed the method by which the citys mayor was chosen. Voters adopted a new system calling for the mayor to be elected by popular vote rather than chosen from among the members of the council. In May of 1959, S. Eugene West was elected mayor by popular vote.

Pay increases for the governmental officials were authorized in April of 1969 with the mayors salary raised from $1,800 to $3,000 and the pro terns annual pay set at $1,500. Council salaries were set at $1,200 per year. All of the figures are currently in effect for the city officials.

The 1970 City Council adopted an ordinance amending the city charter to increase the size of future councils from four members and a mayor to six councilmen and a mayor.

The new six-member slate was elected for the first time in May of 1971 with West returning to office after a two-year absence as mayor and joining councilmen Percy Cox, Johnnie Edwards, Dr. Frank Fuller, Clarence Gray. Jerry Sutherland, and John Taylor The election of Gray and Taylor also marked the first time that a black had been named to a seat on the city government since the turn of the century. Mrs. Mildred McGrath fell only a few

votes short in her attempt to become the first female member of the councU but she was later selected to serve when a vacancy occurred on the board.

In October of 1973, West was elected to his Seventh term as Greenville mayor and Cox, Fuller, Gray, and Mrs. McGrath were reelected along with former councilman John Howard and new member Joe Taft Jr.

The 1973 election saw the increase of long-standing filing fees of $1 for mayor and council candidates to $50 for mayor and $25 for council aspirants.

A glance back thorugh the years of local government shows that during the aldermanic period, apparently only one woman, Mrs. J.L. Hassell, served on the board. She was appointed to the board in 1933 to fill an unexpired term and after serving out that term, she was reelected for additional tenures in 1934 and 1935.

D.M. aark apparently served the greatest number of terms as mayor since 1900 as he was elected to eight successive tenures (from 1919 through 1926) as mayor. The citys present mayor, Eugene West, is serving his seventh term, although they have not been successive.

Lester D. Page was the last mayor to serve under the Board of Aldermen system of government and he was joined by 1952 board members J.S. Jenkins, R.L. Elks, R E. Howell, Heber

B. Tripp. C.B. Mayo, George Pugh, R.E.. Rogers, Robert L, Smith, and Jimmy Wells.

The first edition of the Eastern Reflector, published here on Jan 26,1882, listed the town mayor as

C.M. Bernard and local commissioners as J.T. Baker, H. Hooker, T.R. Cherry, J.D. Cobb, and Austin Flood.

Todays system of government, although different from that of the period of the 1700s in most ways and remarkably similar in others, shares the same basic goal that colonial agencies subscribed to; effective and representative government.

Greenvilles government has changed and developed constantly since the towns chartering. It is a safe bet to assume that history 200 years from now will reflect continued growth in the function of local government.

anything I did wrong.

Not all the deliveries were easy, you understand. Some of my mothers had some long labors, though Id never let any go over 24 hours in labor, or 12 hours in hard labor before Id get them to the hospital. Ive caught four breech babies, and five sets of twins, and some 12-pounders that really gave their mamas a hard time.

When Mrs. Harris started work, she was supposed to make $5 per case. When she retired, the charge was $30 per case. If Id got that, I would have done all right, she said, but so many of my people just couldnt afford to pay me. Theyd promise and some would pay up and sometimes Id go out and try to do a little collecting in the fall, but it didnt do much good.

I never had anybody indicted, though. Some midwives did, I hear, but I just couldnt. If somebody had had me or one of my children up in court, I know how bad I would have felt. So I couldnt hurt anyone else that way.

Besides, the Lord has always taken care of me. Nodding toward the kitchen of her tiny tenant home, she declared, Ive never known a hungry day. Some Paid for Themselves

And, do you know, there have been a few children that have come to me and said, I want to pay you for myself.? I found out my mama couldnt pay you when I was bom, so let me pay you now.

Mrs. Harris and her husband, John, had four children, but she has reared many, many more than four.

In 1851, Calvin H. Wiley published the North Carolina Reader, from which the following extract is taken. According to Weldon N. Edwards, the object of the reader was to sow in the young minds of North Carolina the seeds of a true, healthy, and vigorous North Carolina in spirit; and that it may effect its end, it is designed for universal use in the state, to go, with the Bible and the Almanac, into every home.

Wiley believed that most of the school books then in use were overloaded with rules and instructions; that the scholars were bewildered and fatigued with them; that a few simple rules, with good teachers, would be sufficient.

Bicentennial Edition

1774-1071Two Centuries Of Music In Greenville

By JERRY RAYNOR

In this Greenville Bicentennial year of 1974 when music ranging from local offerings of country music to imported full length operas fill our homes, our offices, the places where we shop, and even the cars we drive, its not easy to pause and to realize that the phenomena of instant music is not yet two generations old.

Today our senses are serenaded at every turn, morning, noon and night. To be entertained with the sounds of music, its necessary only to twist a knob, insert a cassette, flip a record, or insert a coin to have music, music, music. There are times when even the most ardent music lover feels theres no escaping the constant flood of melody.

For most of Greenvilles 200 years, music, whatever the listeners preference, was much harder to come by. The range of music was far more limited too. Frequently, it was a case of sing or play it yourself if music was what you wanted.

Singing On The Common Although printed accounts seem not to exist showing the peoples specific preferences back in the days when the Town Common was the in gathering place along the Tar, we can assume, with a fair degree of accuracy, that songs popular in the Carolina colony and in other American colonies were those most often sung and played by courting couples strolling among the cows and chickens; or by children playing along the river bank.

In the late 18th century, Scottish and British airs and songs were dominant in the American musical repertoire. Two of the big hits of the 1770s and 1780s were Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes and" Auld Lang Syne.

Early Favorites

Other pre-1800 favorites in little Greenville and throughout the colonies was the Irish song, Wearing of the Green and the lilting song that posed the question, O! Dear! What Can The Matter Be?

Early anti-tobacco people had a ready made musical propaganda ditty in the popular Tobaccos But An Indian Weed. There was also Robin Adair and a song of homely _ comfort, When The Sheep Are In The Fauld.

Except for two of the songs mentioned above, the others are still relatively well known today. Until recent years, many of the fine old songs of the 18th, 19th and early 20th century were passed from generation to generation through parlor singing around the piano or pump organ, at community gatherings, and above all, in weekly programs in the auditoriums of public schools.

Progressive education tactics have eliminated time blocks in the educational curriculum for this purpose. As a result, the songs so much a part of community living for a time span of 150 years are not as much a part of the musical heritage of Greenville children as they once were. It must be added, however, that children in Greenville are now receiving a-far wider spectrum in music training than ever before.

Musical Contacts As Greenville slowly spread out into what is now downtown Cotanche, Evans and First Street area, travelers coming in from more populous New Bern and>Norfolk, and river sailors arriving on barges would certainly have brought in new hit songs written in far away Edinburgh, London, Boston and Philadelphia and introduced them to Greenville residents.

Songs that captured the public fancy in the first quarter of the 19th century still numj^red a significant import of melodies from the mother country; songs like "The Blue Bell of Scotland and 'Hiomas Moores beloved poem set to music, Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms.

Its easy to imagine a husky young river tar waiting for his barge to be loaded with casks of pitch. He would gladly have volunteered his services to teach a local gingham clad lass the newest smash hit of England and the continent, Tis The Last Rose of Summer, which was set to music in 1813. I

The first quarter of the 19th century also gave birth to two memorable songsThe Star Spangled Banner of 1814 and in 1828, a song that swept the entire English-speaking world, Home, Sweet Home.

As the years passed into the 18306 and 1840s, its likely the pace of arrival of new popular music in Greenville accelerated, just as the number of songs reflecting purely American experiences began to surpass popular imports in importance.

A number of patriotic songs made their debut in the decades of the 1830s and 1840s. America was introduced in 1832, and within a couple of years had spread to the wild frontiers of the mighty Mississippi. In 1843, the rousing, Columbia, The Gem of the Ocean showed the new nations pride in its growing power.

New Hymns

Long dependent on England J for its church music, American i hymns began to appear, a parallel development to the rapid growth of churches.

Greenville congregations on Sunday mornings walked the short distance to their local churches, or if out-of-towners, tied up horses and buggies outside the churches. One can picture the men and women on hot summer Sunday mornings fanning themselves with palm or paper fans, learning the words and music to new hymns such as My Faith Looks Up To Thee, Rock of Ages, Jesus, Lover' Of My Soul, and Just As I Am, Without One Plea. The jubilant Christmas song, Joy To The World was also a newcomer in this period.

. . .ItS very likely many new songs found their way into Greenville in the 18th and 19th centuries by the river boat lads serenading the local lassies at the boat

landing in Greenville. Artist Hank Wilhite has imagined such a scene, with a young man playing a banjo.

Dance Music It would be good to have a record of local talent gifted in playing the fiddle or banjo. In the absence of such information, it can reasonably be assumed there were local men or women (or both) who could pick a mean banjo or fiddle the lively notes of two dance favorites of the second quarter of the 19th century, Zip Coon (now better known as Turkey In The Straw) and Ching A Ring Chaw.

At least one song of that period paid passing recognition to the strange doings of women in making themselves pretty Com Cobs Twist Your Hair. This quarter century period was not without its quota of lovely tunes from the British Isles. Annie Laurie and Flow Gently Sweet Afton, both written in 1838, were being sung by Americans everywhere in the 1840s.

Stephen Foster At the close of the first half of the 19th century, Greenville-people joined the nation in the delight of discovering the music of a young composer who was to become a major American talent. It was in 1848 that Foster_ published two of his early works, Oh! Susanna and Old Uncle Ned.

This ill-fated genius so close to the spirit of the singing South poured his heart out in a succession of beautiful melodies in the 1850s and on into the 1860s.

If it were possible to go back and walk the dirt streets of Greenville in those years, chances are wed hear the tinkle of piano keys from front parlors in such classic Foster songs as Old Folks At Home, My Old. Kentucky Home, Jeannie With The Light Brown Hair, Old Black Joe, De Camp-town Races, and Beautiful Dreamer. Perhaps the entire family would be gathered around the piano, singing the expressive words of these beloved songs.

The Third Quarter The years between 1850 and 1875 were ones in which GreenvWe music lovers learned more new hymns, sang war songs, continued to take to their hearts melodies from the mother country, and heard new Christmas songs.

It was also a time in which local people expanded their musical 'fare with European keyboard compositions suitable for displaying virtuosity on the piano.

Hymns composed in this period are still standards in many Protestant hymnals Fairest Lord Jesus, Nearer, My God To Thee, Abide With Me, Holy, Holy, Holy, Were Marching to Zion, In The Sweet By and By, and the rousing strains of Onward, Christian Soldiers.

The woman who was to pen the words to a large number of church hymns, Mrs. Fanny J. Crosby, first broke on the scene in the 1870s with Pass Me Not, O Gentle Savior and Rescue The Perishing.

This was perhaps the richest period ever known in America for the outpour of Christmas music. Beginning in 1850 with It Came Upon The Midnight Clear and ending with the translation from German into English of Silent Night in 1871, there were Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (1855), We Three Kings of Orient Are (1863), and O. Little Town of Bethlehem (1868).

To this group can be added perennial favorite among' children, Jingle Bells, which dates from the pre-Civil War year of 1857.

Piano Music

Ladies and young piano students in Greenville (and we like to think some of the men tried their hand at it too), joined musical circles in America who . found a new avenue of pleasure in tuneful, relatively light pieces that were ideal for the piano Mendelssohns On Wings of Song, and Rubinsteins Melody in F in the 1840s; and in the 1850s and 1860s Von Suppes Poet and Peasant Overture, The Blue Danube, and Wine, Women and Song. Could it be that last named composition was considered daring in 1869? For piano and singing there was Brahms timeless and beloved Lullaby written in 1868.

Some of the loveliest European songs of the 19th century found a receptive spot in the singing habits of music loving Americans. From Italy there was Santa Lucia, and from Spain, La Paloma. About the same time, the British Isles contributed the poetic words and haunting melody of How C!an I Leave Thee?

Note of Vigor Popular American music of the third quarter of the 19th century often conveyed a strong note of vigor. A number of the tunes of the day were made to order for the foot stomping, skirt swirling dances in vogue. Fid-dlerf set the pace for.these infectious pieces of music. There was TTie Arkansas Traveler in 1851; Listen To The Mocking Bird, 1855, and in 1869, Uttle Brown Jug.

More in the romantic vein were enduring favorites such as Sweet Geneveive, When You and I Were Young Maggie, Molly Darling, and Silver Threads Among the Gold.

Greenville children undoubtedly took quickly to Where, O Wher^ Has My Little Dog Gone? just as a more recent young generation delighted in How Much Is That Doggie In The Window?

Civil War Music

American popular music in the days of the Civil War mirrored the intensity of emotions that surfaced in those tragic days of the countrys history.

A nationally popular forerunner to the war songs was the 1861 composition, John Browns Body. Also, before battle lines were inexorably drawn, Daniel Decatur penned his' descriptive words to In Dixies Land, more often called simply Dixie. A couple of years later the inimitable Julia Ward Howe penned the words to her fiery hymn of war and glory, The Battle Hymn of the public,

From evidence available in talking to old timers here who remember people living in Greenville as young people in the Civil War days, people here in the 1860s decided that singable music was stimulating regardless of the source. So it was not long before the, militantly religious cries of glory, glory, hallelujah could be heard in the streets of Greenvilleand Mrs. Howe be hanged. (A similar parallel took place 85 years later when Allied troops in World War II latched onto the haunting melody Lili Marlene and made it theirs too. Such is the power of music).

But war is not all militant fervor and triumphant passages, even musically. Anxieties and heartbreak found their way into songs more realistically touching on the truth of suffering in songs like Just Before the Battle, Mother, Tenting On The Old Camp Ground, and Dear Mother, Ill Ck>me Home tq Die.

Homesickness among troops found vent in Do They Miss Me At Home? and one of the musical legacies of the Civil War is the lilting The Girl I Left Behind Me. This song has been adopted by every generation of military men since, with countless parodies not printable in this article.

As the war years wore on, hope was'exprnsed in the 1863 marching song When Johnny Comes Marching Home. On the home front, in 1864, Americans

were musically admonished to Work For The Night Is Coming.

Renewed Cheer

In Greenville, as in all America, when the nightmare of a battling, divided America was over, new hopes and attitudes and a renewed sense of cheerfulness began to be manifest in the songs people sang.

In the late 1870s two of the nations big hits were the rollicking Oh! Dem (^Iden Slippers and the novel musical question: Where Was Moses When The Lights Went Out? A" couple of years later, people were singing about The Five Cent Shave and Maggie, The Cows Are In The (3om.

In the same year, 1883, that Greenville folks learned the words to a hymn that has become a funeral standard, God Be With You Til We Meet Again, they were also learning to make harmony in a new national cree, the barbershop quartet, in another hit song of the year, There Is A Tavern In The Town.

Careful. Lads

The 1870s and 1880s were bumper years for a genre of songs that saw its full flowering in the 1890s; songs that voice concern about lads going' astrayand sometimes papa too. This group included such gems as Where Is My Wan-dring Boy Tonight? Dont Go Out Tonight, Boy, and Just Tell Them That You Saw Me.

By the time 1890 arrived, Greenvilles local talent were able to purchase nickel and dime copies of sheet music to hits of that gay decadegay, that is, mixed with tearful melodramatic themes in songs like Shes Only A Bird In A Gilded Cage, My Mother Was A Lady, The Picture That Is Turned Toward The Wall, and Break 'The News To Mother,

Three Decades

American songs of the 80s, 90s and early years of the 20th century more and more exemplified the diverse musical influences of a nation that had opened its arms to millions of newcomers. The nation, as we know it today, was taking shape, and was entering the full swing of the industrial age.

Greenville, though small, had reached a respectable age by the turn of the century. Local people traveled and came back home humming catchy melodies heard in big city music halls. This brilliant era is represented by songs of romance, of adventure, of a new pride in America, and an unending fascination on the subject of girls

A highlight listing of popular songs of these three decades include hits like Ta-ra-ra boom de-re, After The Ball, Shine On Harvest Moon, The Sidewalks of New York, Let Me Call You Sweetheart, and Put Your Arms Around Me, Honey.

Two of the most sung about girls were Ida, Sweet As Apple Cider and Sweet Adeline.

Travel in the new contraptions calfed horseless carriages brought forth In My Merry Oldsmobile, while the more lowly two-wheeler had its praise in A Bicycle Built For Two. Railroad buffs were gladdened by Casey Jones.

In 1906, at the half-way point between the Spanish American War and World War I, the Navy was honored with Anchors Aweigh. and the American flag was celebrated in Youre A Grand Old Flag.

Even in the first decade of the 20th century, Americans were developing the hostalgia bit with a musical look back to preautomobile days in Put On Your Old Gray Bonnet.

New Music

At the same time, Americas musical pulse was invigorated with the growing public acceptance of new sounds in music, those of ragtime and the blues. Alexanders Ragtime Band in 1911 and St. Louis Blues in 1914 were songs expressive of music derivatives from American Negroes.

Romantic, melodic ballads continued to be popular favorites, with Moonlight Bay, Oh! You Beautiful Doll, When Irish Eyes Are Smiling, Theres A Long, Long Trail, By 'The Beautiful Sea, and Missouri Waltz sweeping the nation in the four year period of 1912 through 1915.

Foreseeing the dangers of Yanks being caught up in Europes great war, protesters in 1915 were singing I Didnt Raise My Boy To Be A Soldier, while a lighter vein was noted in a novelty hit, Yacka Hula Hickey Dula, and young people danced to Ballin The Jack.

World War I

When the war to end all wars eventually involved Americans, and young men in Greenville volunteered or were drafted, tunesmiths in America turned their efforts to coining songs expressing a gamut of public sentiments.

Over There became a slogan of promise to our embattled Allies; the doughboys viewpoint was best stated in

Oh! How I Hate To Get Up In The Morning, and the yearning of everyone was summed up in Keep 'The Home Fires Burning.

Both the men over there and the girls back home made For Me And My Gal, K-K-K Katy, and Smiles into hit songs remembered in association with World War I days.

'The 19208

Back home in Greenville, former doughboys and their wives and sweethearts sang and danced to the top tunes of 1919 and the early 20sIm Forever Blowing Bubbles, Avalon, Ill Be With You In Apple Blossom Time, The Sheik of Araby, That Old Gang of Mine, and Tea For Two. Those were the days when radio and the victrola first made new songs familiar in a matter of days and weeks, and singers and bands became national celebrities.

'The music flowed on and on in ever increasing number of songs, and Greenville people were especially fond of singing two Carolina songs, Carolina In 'The Morning, in 1922 and six years later, Carolina Moon.

Among the memorable hits of the 1920s are hardy favorites like Moonlight and Roses, Rio Rita, Blue Skies, Mountain Greenery, My Blue Heaven, Romana, Shortnin Bread Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, and Stardust.

The 1930s

Americans have a knack of expressing themselves in their music, and the sobering shock of the great depression that followed the exhiliration of the flapper decade gave vent to what one critic has described as pop music editorials.

Many of GreenvUles residents today remember the 1932 song Brother Can You Spare A Dime? The plaintiff Stormy Weather, though basically a lament for problems of love, became associated with bad times, as did the novelty tune, Whos Afraid Of '1^6 Big Bad Wolf.

Bad times or not, the people kept singing. The Peanut Vender, Santa Claus Is Coming To Town, Easter Parade, Wagon Wheels, Orchids In The Moonlight, Over The Rainbow, South of The Border, Beer Barrell Polka. and a new Dixie song, Is It True What They Say About Dixie? all date back to the 30s.

About the time that juke boxes first were installed in Greenville, a danceable melody, The Music GJoes Round and Round described the wonders of music for a nickel. An old childrens games song was dressed up to become A-Tisket, A-Tasket, and children had their own song in Playmates.

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the World War I Armistice, Americans were given their most recent acquisition to patriotic music, God Bless America.

The 1940s

Young people in Greenville in the early 40s, armed with radio, sheet music and records were able to keep abreast of everything new in popular music. 'The decade opened on a happy tuneful note in the hit song You Are My Sunshine.

Tangy rhythms from south of the border added a touch of musical spice in Frenesi, Green Eyes, Maria Elena, Yours, Brazil and Besame Mucho in the early 40s. Americas preoccupation with exotic melodies could not, however, hide the threat of a new global war, and in 1941 the Yanks took to heart a popular song from the mother country, Bluebirds Over The White Cliffs of Dover. 1941 was also the year Americans first heard the perennial favorite, White CTiristmas.

Within weeks after the Japanese attacked the Territory of Hawaii, tunesmiths rushed to turn out such now forgotten songs as Lets Remember Pearl Harbor and Theres A Star Spangled Banner Waving Somewhere.

Dance Tunes and War Songs

Once more, the pattern of 20 years earlier was repeated as Greenyille young men responded to greetings or joined up with the Navy, Army, Marines or the fledgling Army Air Force. This time, the numbers were much greater.

The old adage that man must sing was given validity in the dark days of World War II. Military men, their parents and wives and girl friends found consolation and entertainment in musicdance music and songs of romance, songs about GIs and just plain songs.

Boys home on leave or pass in Greenville and military men from nearby training bases in eastern North Carolina made the USO at the comer of West Third and Greene Streets their home away from home, fox-trotting and jitterbugging to Chattanooga CTioo-C:hoo, Elmers Tune, Jingle, Jangle, Jingle, One Dozen Roses, Jersey Bounce, Boogie-Woogie, Deep In TTie Heart of Texas, and a long list of other fabulous dance tunes of the 40s.

Many a wartime romance blossomed in tune to I Dont Want To Walk Without You Baby, Dearly Beloved, Who Wouldnt Love You, Sleepy Lagoon, People WU1_ Say Were In Love, Youll Never Know, and *Youd Be So Nice To Come Home To.

Songs of the war years of the 40s relating to military men were plentiful, yet few conveyed the militancy of war songs of earlier years. A few, Praise The Lord and Pass The Ammunition and Coming In On A Wing and A Prayer for example, were directly related to wartime experiences. Some were light-heartedDont Sit Under The Apple Tree, Theyre Either Too Young Or Too OW; and some expreeaed a promise to be trueNo Love, No Nothing, Ill Walk Alone and Shoo, Shoo, Baby are examples.

Among the most descriptive' were This Is 'The Army Mr. Jones and Bell Bottom Trousers.

New Directions

For a short time after World War II, popular songs in the traditional sense of the word continued to dominate the musical scene in America. Big hits of the late 40s came from stage shows, movies, records and to a lesser extent, from the big swing bands. There was To Each His Own, The Old Lamplighter, Some Enchanted Evening, Maybe Youll Be There, Sentimental Journey, Nature Boy, and Ballerina.

A scattering of comic songs caught the public fancy, Feudin and Fightin, Too Fat Polka. and Rag Mop.

But changes were clearly discernible, the distinction between what had long been considered two types of American music, i.e., popular and country, became less clear cut as songs of country origin moved into the popular field to make their marksongs such as Tennessee Waltz, Any Time, Cold, Cold Heart, and Your Cheatin Heart.

At the half-way point of the 20th century, television had become a significant fnfluence in the musical tastes of America. Although there were hit songs in the 50s and 60s in the standard sense of the wordBallad of Davy Crockett, Mack The Knife. Downtown, Never On Sunday. Hello, Dolly, Moon River, etc. the trend has moved toward a musical menu of great diversitycountry hits, rock hits, music utilizing electronic techniques.

Today

Its not within the purview of this article to attempt to analyze the direction American music may take in the immediate future. Here in Greenville, just as it is evei^^where in the USA, theres such a welter of musk available, that a popular number can come and go More one has much of an opportunity to become familiar witt) it.

Whatever the musical future of America might be, theres always on tap a vast heritage of fine old favorites from the peat 200 years to remember, to cherish, and beat of all, to sing.

Records Date Back To 1762Land Deeds Tell Pitt Story

By BLANCHE HARDEE Reflector Staff Writer

Deeds involving real estate situated within the boundaries of Pitt County date back as early as 1762. according to the General Indexes to Real Estate Conveyances kept in the register of deeds office of the Pitt County Court House.

Pitt County was formed from Beaufort County about 1760 and was named after William Pitt. Earl of Chatham.

Most of what is now Pitt County was part of the Granville District. The Granville District was a vast tract of land which was about 60 miles wide and bordered on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and on the west by the Pacific Ocean.

The Earl of Granville received the property from the King of England in 1728 but the land to be included in the Granville Grant was not chosen until 1744.

The land was tended by tenants with land agents seeing that the rent was paid and that the Earl of Granville received his portion of the rent money.

However, this method proved to be unsatisfactory. The land agents cheated both the tenants and the Earl of Granville.

In 1782 an act of the Assembly confiscated the large estate of Granville and the property wat. purchased by several colonial settlers

Louis Duval was the first man to patent land in the Pitt County area in 1714. Robert Williams purchased land from Otters Creek and Tysons Creek extending several thousand acres in 1723 from the Earl of Granville. Records also show that Capt. John Speir settled in the Red Banks area of Pitt County about 1725.

There are 99 entries in the Real Estate Conveyance Book concerning land purchased from the Earl of Granville.

Some of the early settlers who purchased land from the Earl of Granville and the amount of land they bought include: 'Thomas 'Travis. Aug. 6. 1761. 285 acres; John Chalcraff. Aug. 6. 1761, 320 acres; John Shannon. Aug. 6. 1761. 220 acres; Caleb Wallis, Oct. 16. 1761, 700 acres; Aug. 7. 1761, Caleb Wallis, 400 additional acres;

Abraham Tyson, Aug. 6, 1761, 700 acres; Joshua 'Tucker, Oct. 16. 1761, 77 acres; Samuel Stokes. June 26. 1762. 411 and one-half acres; and John Williams, June 6,1761. 685 acres

Persons who purchased land from the Earl of Granville but whose deeds were not clear as to the amount of land included on the deeds were: William

Braddy, John Meeks, William Crisp, David Williams, John Wooten, Archibald Adams. William Lanier, John Washington. Richard Allen, James Deloach. James Bonner, Abraham 'Tyson, Henry Ellias, Richard Barrow, Thomas Moore. John Mayo, 'Thomas Pugh, Will Baldree, and William Stafford.

One of the deeds between the Earl of Granville and Samuel Stokes follows;

. . between the right

honorable John Earl Granville, viscount in the kingdom of Great Britain and Samuel Stokes of Pitt County in the province of North Carolina, planter, for the sum of 10 shillings sterling money to John Earl Granville paid by Samuel Stokes for all that parcel of vacant land situated and lying and being in the parish of St. Michaels in the county of Pitt, south side of Tarr River, beginning at a white oak on the aforesaid Stokes line on the left side of Harris Branch, running down the branch N. 40 poles to a red oak to the Richard Stones line; down this line west 120 poles to a pine; thence N. 120 poles along said Stones other

line to a white oak to 'Tysons Creek; thence up the creek N. 75 poles west 50 poles to a red oak on said creek N. 60 poles to a hickory w. 72 poles on Richard Williams line. . .containing all four hundred and eleven and one half acres of land all of which is located within these prmises. All trees, water courses and the privilege of hunting, fishing hawking and fowling in and upon said premises and all mines and minerals whatsoever therein to be found, excepting and always reserving out of this present grant unto the king, most excellent majesty, one fourth part of all such gold and silver mines to be found on premises and always reserving unto John Earl Granville half part of the remaining three fourths of all such gold and silver mines to have and to hold the said tract of land and Samuel Stokes and his heirs forever yeilding and paying therefore yearly rent or sum of 16 shillings and five pence, three farthings, upon the 25th day of March and the 29th day of September in every year by even and equal portions and to be paid at the court house of the said county of Pitt unto the said earl or his heirs.

Other early deeds included the sale of 135 acres of land in the Mill Creek area to Michael Oldshoe by Edward Williams on Feb. 20, 1763; deed between James Mayo and Henry Jackson on Jan. 16,1772 for 55 pounds for certain tract of land about 75 acres located on north side of Tar River; Benjamin Randall sold James Lochart 280 acres of land located on the south side of the Tar River for 100 pounds on March 23. 1773.

Daniel Wilson bought 250 acres of land from William 'Travis on Jan. 14, 1775, for the sum of 13 pounds 10 shillings.

One important deed shows an Act of Assembly passed at New Bern on Nov. 19, 1771 which

(Editors note: The following article is reprinted from the May 14, 1958 edition of The Daily Reflector Haywood Dail died on Feb 2. 1959 at the age of 81.)

By JIMMY ELLIS Reflector Staff Writer East Carolina College is generally accepted these days as one of Greenvilles most outstanding assets Any efforts to take the college away from the town would be bitterly resisted. More than that, such efforts would be fought, tooth-and-nail, right down to the last breath of most Greenville residents.

'The college has come to mean that much.

There was a time, however, when one man stood between the college being here, or in another Eastern North Carolina town. He won his fight, obviously; and he also lived to tell about, which is a bit more surprising Fifty-one years ago, that man. Haywood Dail of Greenville, went on a paper diet for a day to guarantee passage of a bond issue to support location of the college here Dail was poll-holder for the election in Greenville, and be chewed up enough negative ballots to enable proponents of the issue to swing the vote by a 300 majority He di(int actually eat the ballots, but he chewed them sufficiently to disfigure the negative markings Dail discarded the pocketful of paper wads after the polls closed It was all illegal, of course, but Dail still believes it was completely necessary to get the college here Im not sorry I did it, he says, because if I hadnt, the issue wouldnt have carried. It was a long time before I said anything about it to anyone, but Ill be damned if Im ashamed of it.

The manner in which the college has grown has had much to do with any conscience-easing Dail may have found necessary through the years. 'The idea that it would grow had little to dO with Dails original action, however.

None of us had any idea that the college would grow as it has None of us had that much vision." the 80-year-old farmer says. We just thought it would be worth a great deal to Eastern North,Carolina; if it takes vision to thifik that way about athing.

One Man Swung College Election

then I guess we had that much vision.

Vision or not, Dail did precisely what he had promised Governor 'Thomas J. Jarvis: he swung the election.

The Governor (actually. Jarvis was a former Governor of North Carolina at the time) was afraid the issue wouldnt pass if it was presented for a vote. Nobody around here was against the college, as such, but they didnt care much about paying the taxes which would have been put on to pay for the bonds.

(iovemor Jarvis told a group of us that he would rather not put it to a vote if it was going to lose, and if he had made the decision right then we would never have had the election. He said it would be like butting your head against a brick wall.

I told him then, CJovernor, if you want that election. Ill get it. Just make sure the ballots are small, with nothing more than for bond issue and against bond issue printed on them. He got the small ballots and we carried the election.

'The issue provided $50,000 from the county and $50,000 from the town Dail recalls that there -was only a small vote in the county and that the late Dr. Charles OH Laughinghouse worked hard to get rural residents to approve the idea.

In Greenville, there was considerable opposition to the idea of adding new taxes to pay for the bondsand the proposition of a bond issue was offered only after other methods had failed After Jim Fleming (the late James L. Fleming, Pitt Onintys State Senator) got his bill through the Legislature, and the (legislature adjourned, several towns in Eastern North Carolina went to work to get the college, Dail says We tried to form a plan whereby we would get money from private donations, but we found we couldnt do that.

Times were hard then, and we couldnt get a site, either, so we settled on the idea of a bond issue 'Thats what we got. After Dail tucked the bond issue away, proponents of the college-for-Greenville were loaded for bear. And they needed every ounce of shot they could get to throw before the State Board of Education, Dail says.'

Local folks didnt care anything at all about paying extra taxes to retire the bonds.

but the State Board didnt care anything about setting up a new teacher-training school, either. The old-line education people were afraid a new school would take something away from the State Normal School at Greensboro (now the Womans College of the University of North Carolina). They didnt want to do anything that might hurt the established institutions.

I think the State Board was surprised by the reception the idea of an East Carolina Teacher Training School got. I believe they thought that the first appropriation of $25,000 would kill the ideayou couldnt do anything with $25,000but they were fooled.

Greenvilles and Pitts offer of $100,000, less the purchase price of a 43-acre site, was picked as best among eight made for location of the college, but it had some attractive opposition Seven other towns were bidding for the college, with the bids ranging from $25,000 cash and 33 acres of land to $95,000 cash and 200 acres of land.

'The choice of a site was made at a meeting in early July, 1907 Greenville won when one member of the board switched his vote in the afternoon session of an all-day meeting.

Judge Francis Winston. lieutenant governor, was the man who switched his vote and gave us the college, Dail says

There is no actual record of how individual members of the board voted, but old newspaper accounts say the final balloting by Board of Education members gave Greenville four votes and Kinston two, the necessary majority for Greenville.

Actually, I think we were smart in handling our offer to the State Board, Dail says, because we >held onto our money until we knew we were going to get the school. 'The State Board wasnt obligated to use the local funds for supporting initial costs of the college, and we wanted to be sure we could do just that

When the board made its choice, we had 43 acres of land Governor Jarvis had bought from Sheriff Bill Harrington at $200 an acre. 'That left us with a little more than $90,000, and we built six buildings with that and had some left over I know because I made the brick for the first buildings myself and hauled

else knew where to take them, because the town limits stopped at the foot of the Fifth Street hill and I had to cut a road through the woods and across the creek to get the wagon through.

Dail never was a student at the college, he, in a sense, put in Greenville, but he has close ties with it. Two of his sisters, Minnie Best Dail and Virginia Dail, were the third and fourth students to enroll there.

Everybodys proud of the college now, but there was a time when there was bitter opposition to the idea of paying to get it here,'DaiI says. I still believe if I hadnt stood at that ballot box all day and let nobody else tough a ticket we wouldt have carried the bond issue.

It would be a pitiful thing for Greenville if the college was lifted up an carried away.

Im not sorry I did it.

During the years of 1889 and 1919 indentures of apprenticeship were required to be registered. Occasional miscellaneous materials are also registered in the early books, such as official bonds or public proclamations.

At first, all types of in-stnunents were recorded in one series as they were taken to the court house for registration. However, as the quantity and variety of the instruments increased, during the 1870s and 1880s, separate volumes for different types of documents were used.

Other types of material which were registered during the 1700s and early 1800s include;

An agreement made on April 24, 1774, between I.O. Pollard and Ashly Bynum stating that Pollard would rent Bynum one house, crop land on his farm and agree to furnish farming utensils for the crops and cotton seed and corn to be planted. Pollard also agreed to furnish peas to plant and to furnish goods and supplies to enable Bynum to cultivate said crop and not to exceed $120.

Bynum agreed to plant about half of his crop in cotton and half of his crop in corn and to house the crop and pay his rent. One half of the cotton and two thirds of the com, two thirds of the fodder would belong to Pollard. Bynum also agreed to pay for all the cotton seed and a portion of all he made on his farm in said years. He agreed to put up 8(K) new rails on the fence and to feed Pollards stock during the year. He promised to give Pollard a lien on his entire crop.

Views Of Federal Constitution

north CAROIJNA'8 attitude toward

THE FEDERAI.

< ONSTITUTION. 1788-178

In the period during and following the American Kevolution. North Carolina displayed a strong feeling of individualism. The people were jealous of their rights and sensitive to any encroachments hy the central government. Going into effect in 1781, the Articles of Confederation proved to be generally unpopular Ihroughout the United States, and in North Carolina much criticism and many amendments were offered. When the delegates were sent to the Philadelphia Convention (the Constitutional Convention^ in the summer of 1787, there was a feeling in the state that the Articles would be revised. Instead of this, however, an entirely new (institution was drawn up, and North Carolina was asked to give its approval to the new frame of government.

From the very first there was bitter opposition to the Constitution, based upon the allegations that it endowed the central government with too much power. This opposition found most of its strength in the back country, while eastern counties, for the greater part, fought for the ratification of the Constitution. In the election of delegates to the state convention feeling ran so high that it culminated in a small riot in Edenton, in the course of which the courthouse was thrown into darkness and many Federalist heads were clubbed. Judge James Iredell and Colonel William R. Davie threw the weight of their prestige and popularity behind the fight for ratification, but the shrewd Willie Jones led he opposition and in the Hillsboro Convention defeated the Constitution by a vote of 184 to 83. In spite of this action, however, the instrument became effective in 1789 with the launching of the new government . Fearing that she would be subjected to economic pressure. North Carolina, in the autumn of 1789, voted at the Fayetteville Convention to come under the federal roof.

JAME8 IRADELL8 DEFEN8E OF THE CON8TITUTION Edenton November 12.1787 We, the Grand Jury for the district of Edenton, considering the present as a very important crisis in the affairs of America, and being deeply sensible of the necessity of a firm and lasting, union among the Americani States, to ensure the common safety and liberty of all, hope it! will not be deemed presuming in us, that we take this occasion to express our sentiments on the subject of the new Constitution, proposed by the late respectable Convention. We believe that none can be so ignorant as not to know, and we hope few are so unfeeling as not to regret, the disordered and distracted state in which the affairs of the Union have been for a long time past. No sooner was the danger of a common enemy removed, than the States immediately detached themselves from the general concerns of the whole, as if our future fate was out of the power of fortune. The consequence has been, our public debts unpaid, the treaty of peace unfulfilled on both sides, our commerce at the very verge A)f ruin, and all private industry at a stand, for want of a united, vigorous government. Quotas demanded which we can never pay, and Congress preserving merely the shadow of authority, without possessing one substantial property of power. These evils dictated the necessity of change, and the same happy expedient of an union of counsels which formed the confederation, was adopted to remedy its defects. Experience had pointed these out, and we believe it would be difficult to draw together in any country, a body of abler men than those appointed on this important occasion. They are not only able men, but entitled to the highest confidence which can be bestowed by any people upon illustrious and successful leaders; and the same patriotism of character which formerly distinguished so many of them in the most trying scenes, was visible in the anxious and deep attention they

employed on this momentous subject. A work coming from such men, after such long deliberation, is entitled to the utmost respect, expecially as all the States assembled were unanimous, a circumstance that strongly shows the purity of th^ intentions, their sense of the absolute necessity that a new constitution should be immediately formed, and that little subordinate attentions to local interests ought to give way to the great object of the general good. There is nothing we hold in greater disdain, nor is there any thing more inconsistent wldi common prudence, as well as the most ordinary share of puMic spirit, than that we should cavil about trifles when our all is at stake; that we should slight the present favorable opportunity, which may be the <mly one we may ever enjoy, to establish a free and energetic government, when we now lie at the mercy of the most inconsiderable enemy, and have a union in nothing but in name. Wa admire in the new (Constitution a proper jealousy oi liberty mixed* with a due regard to the* necessity of a strong authoritative government. Such a one is as requisite for a confederated, as for a single government, since it would not be more ridiculous or futile for our own Assembly to depend for a sanction to its laws on a unanimous concurrence for all the counties of the State, than for' Congress to depend for any necessary exertion <rf power on the unanimous concurrence of all the States in the Union. One weak, corrupted, or unprincipled State might in such a case destroy the whole. This evil, the effect of which we have already felt, is, in our opinion, happily remedied by the constitution proposed, with an advantageous addition of a popular representative of the people at large, accompanied with useful checks to guard against the possible abuses. It is also a part of the constitution, that we observe with particular pleasure, that nine States may at any time make alterations, so that any changes which experience may point out can be

made without the danger of such calamities as are incident upon

The various attempts that were made to divide us during the

Have Always Won RecognitionSchools Part Of Heritage

By TOM FOREMAN. JR.

Reflector Staff Writer

Greenvilles City Schools have been through many problems and crises in its 71-year history, but it has remained one of the finest school systems in the state of North Carolina, turning out its fair share of scholars, and always receiving recognition for athletic and academic excellence.

Recoded histories date back as far as 1903, but the first Greenville school goes back as far as 1786, These records were kept by one man responsible for a great deal of the history in the Greenville School System for over 40 yearsMr. J. H. Rose

Rose served as a temporary record keeper in the school system, and at some of the boards meetings. But when he became superintendent in 1923, he initiated many of the programs that are now in effect not only in the city, but all over the state and nation as well

Ancestors of the Greenville High School date back to 1786. within just a dozen years of the Bicentennial Year. It was known then as the Pitt Academy. Its leaders included some of the states most prominent men. Greenville got its own school in 1814, known as the Greenville Academy. This school was later followed by the Old Male Academy. According to records, the school languished until it was taken over by Professor W.H. Ragsdale, who gave the school new life and activity. The Old Male Academy began in 1840.

Nothing much happened to the Greenville school idea until 1903, when the North Carolina Legislature passed an act authorizing the citizens of the city of Greenville to hold an election in the spring of that year to find out whether the people wanted to vote $10,000 for school construction and maintenance. The election was held and the issue passed overwhelmingly.

Records of the Greenville City School system date as far back as 1903, when the Board had a president instead of a chairman. The president was former governor of the state Thomas J. Jarvis. Under him served six more persons, including M.A. Allen, G.E. Harris, R.J. Cobb,

J R. Moore, and J.L. Little.

The board was a makeshift committee, set up by electoral methods, with three of the members of the committee designated to set up a code of taws by which the schools could maintain themselves The committee was also given the task of finding a site for the first school in the Greenville school district.

A site for the school was finally chosen on May 29, 1903, on the old Greenville Academy Grounds. Land was purchased for the school for $2,500. But before the actual purchase was made, the committee turned dowm the offer. Nevertheless, architects were contracted from as far west as Charlotte in order to come up with a design for the school. A New Bern architect. H.W. Simpson, was selected to design the first public school in Greenville.

Not until August were texts and furniture purchased for installation in the school. In order to pay for the material, a motion was passed from the committee, to the Board of Aldermen for a request of a tax of 30 cents per $100 valuation, and 90 cents on each poll. Despite the lack of a building, the school board forged on, setting October 5 as opening date, a far cry from the August and early September openings many schools now have in effect. Evidently, the motion went through the Board of Aldermen without much of a fight.

Teachers in the early days of the system were elected to their respective posts instead of being appointed as by the board of today. Their salaries ranged from $35 to $45 per month, with the superintendent making approximately $1,200 a year. W. B. Dove was the superintendent in 1904. But due to the shortages of teachers. Dove as well as some of the members of the board, also had to serve as teachers as well.

The school was finally constructed, and the students finally got in. though there was the ever-present problem of overcrowding in the classroom. The board then hired another teacher in order to alleviate the situation. On January 14, 1929,

the Greenville Graded School was destroyed by fire, causing an estimated $45,000 damage to the structure, making It virtually a total loss. Two years earlier, another intermediate school was destroyed by fre, making it necessary to start construction on two new schools for the city. But the board faced problems in building new school facilities.

In previous years, the school system had borrowed money from a local Greenville bank in order to pay off its debts. Despite these loans, the system was still over $2,000 in the hole. Also, the school was really never completed due to a heating problem, therefore making for cold conditions within the old building. The graded school also faced health problems due to the lack of heating. Diptheria broke out in the citys school children holding up educational processes. Later, a plan of vaccination was suggested for the city schools, with none of the children to be excluded. None of the children who did not receive vaccination were to be accepted.

Bids were taken in 1922 for new schools, the first being Eppes High School. The bids were taken in August 1923, and a Wilmington firms offer was accepted in October of the same year. Another site for the West Greenville Elementary School, now known as Agnes Fullilove School, was proposed in August of 1924. Possibilities also existed for the construction of a new junior high school as well as expansion of the present high school facility.

The state government handed the system a serious setback in' 1927 when it ruled that it could not appropriate the funds necessary to build a school within the city. Therefore, the city proposed a bond issue to the citizens of Greenville on September 1, 1927. On November 5, the bond issued passed.

By far, however. Rose had the greatest influence on the Greenville City Schools of any man to date. He assumed the role of city superintendent in 1923, with a brief stop in 1925 in order to study at Columbia University in New York City so he could, as the minutes of one

meeting put it, be better qualified for the job.

Under the leadership of Rose,' Greenvilles schools were kept at their utmost peak of efficiency and service. He recommended that the schools start adding Latin and French to their curriculum, that physical education also be added, and that lunchroom areas be built for students. Rose also asked that some methods be devised for Keeping the Kids on campus, since the high school was then on the fringe of the downtown area. Rose was worried that the meals the students were getting downtown were not nutrition-filled for the welfare of the students.

Rose also initiated the practice of physical examination in incoming students in 1929, with the hope of starting Home Economics in the school system later.

In the administration of J.H. Rose, known to his friends as June, construction of new classrooms proceeded at a steady rate. The old C.M. Eppes High School was built in 1929, with the west wing of the school being added in 1931, and the east wing, which' bordered Nash Street, was erected in 1939. C.M. Eppes was enlarged again in 1947 and 1948 with the addition of laboratories and a masonary area. The old Wahl-Coates -School was constructed in 1929 with additions made in 1931.

'The activity center at West Greenville was built along with the school building in 1950. Elmhurst Elementary was built in 1954, with 14 acres allocated for further construction for another elementary school. The school that was to bear the name of Rose was finished in September. 1957, two years after the contract was let for the building. The era of construction ended temporarily when the physical education plant at C.M. Eppes was constructed, also in 1957.

Rose said he didnt believe in pampering children; he believed in working them hard. He stressed the basic fundamentals of educationreading, writing and arithmetic. But his own personal involvements did not stop at education, for he headed many civic organizations in the

city as well as the state. He was commander of the N.C. American Legion, and was also director of the Civil Defense for North Carolina. Also, Rose helped devise a method for aircraft warnings in Eastern North Carolina, and served on the Governors Commission on Employment of the Physically Handicapped.

In the closing years of the administration of Rose, the city achieved one of its more noble accomplishments. It was reported that over six of every ten Greenville high school graduates continue their education into college. Counting the number of those who went to junior colleges or to nursing schools, the total number of those continuing their education reached a whopping 85 per cent. It was noted in one paper as a remarkable rate of movement of young people.

Rose died on March 27, 1972 after serving the Greenville City Schools as its superintendent for 48 years. Many honors were bestowed upon Rose, but the greatest honor in his life perhaps was the new high school which

was named in his honor in 1957. It was a fitting idea for a man who had so devotedly served education in the city for most of his life.

There had been two high schools serving black and whites for over 30 years in the city, but in 1969, the two schools, C.M. Eppes and J. H. Rose merged into one school. What should have been a scene of togetherness and harmony turned into an ugly situation of violence and protest. School officials had to close the school for nearly a week as students exchanged blows in a hallway during the lunchtime period. After a talk to the students by newly-named superintendent C.C. Cleetwood in which he described the outbreak of violence as a great deal of restlessness. The fight apparently stemmed from the election of a white girl as homecoming queen.

Schools closed for a brief time as board members and parents combined their efforts in order to get at the root of the problem.

Buffet Begins Ladies Day

Ladies Day will begin with a luncheon buffet and entertainment at the Greenville Country Club from 12 till 2 p.m., Wednesday. October 9. The luncheon is open to the public.

Entertainment will be

provided by Harriet Woodcock as she performs The Story of the Trapp Family Singers.

Following the entertainment the diners will be invited to tour the Charles White home. 425 Longmeadow Road, from 2 till 3:30 p.m Refreshments will be served on the patio. This portion of the afternoon is open to all those having purchased tickets to the luncheon.

Additional information may be given by Mrs. Charles Kavanaugh, 758-40%.

The problem may have been more accurately capsulated by Gene Causby, assistant director of Human Relations Division in Raleigh:

We find ourselves involved in changes, big changes, little changes. Lets remember that any change creates concern .. .

(The Students)... should not be so eager to get upset. Take time to think, reflect. You young people have a tremendous opportunity and a great responsibility. Take advantage of it.

With these words, blacks and whites forged ahead into two more years of learning togetherand two more years of sporadic violence. Outside influences, including a murder in West Greenville in December, 1972, caused senseless outbreaks through the two years following initial desegregation. But after those years of growing and learning each others ideas and styles, Rose High experienced only one minor episode of trouble for the school year 1973-74.

The Greenville school system has also turned out, in addition to many scholastic achievers, its share of athletes in all three major sports. Most notable among the many was Earl Thompson, a slick, sleek guard that shattered many scoring records at C.M. Eppes High School, and gained All-America status his senior year, as well as further recognition at East Carolina University. Mike Harrington also gained All-American recognition as a high school basketball player in addition to being a fine receiver on Rose Highs football team.

Most recent and most prominent in the minds of Greenville citizens is A1 Hunter. Starting with his bullish style of running in junior high, his athletic prowess was just beginning to blossom. He dazzled teammates and opponents with his power and his speed in high school, and along with his running mate Reggie Perkins, Hunter gained over 1200 yards

rushing his senior year and helped reverse an anemic 2-8 ballclub to a most successful 7-3 powerhouse. Hunter then made his mark on the track, burning times of 9.3 seconds in the 100-yard dash and running the second leg of the 880-reIay in amazing times.

After high school. Hunter continued his career at the University of Notre Dame, where he continued to impress many with his skills. The biggest thrill occurred on New Years Eve of 1973 when he returned a kickoff 93 yards against the University of Alabama in the Sugar Bowl, aiding the Irish in its efforts towards winning a national championship.

Jim Brewington, presently a coach at Rose High School, played briefly for the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League, and with the Oakland Raiders of the old American Football League. He had played both basketball and football at C.M. Eppes, and starred in football in college.

While Lefty Driesell was leading Davidson College towards national prominence in basketball, he recruited Roses Rodney Knowles. While Knowles played at Davidson, the Wildcats amassed a 60-win, 24-loss record. Knowles stands fifth on the all-time Davidson scoring list, with a total of 1,344 points.

Others in the list of many athletes and coaches in Greenville include: Howard Hodges, John W. Maye, George Maye, Willie Tucker, Percy Daniels, Dr. Charles Cherry, Mike Aldridge, and Jerry Clark.

Through construction, fires, violence, and champions, the Greenville City Schools have weathered many storms in order to reach the place of todaya position of excellence among many other systems in the state. The system serves nearly 5,000 , children in the city which has increased over ten-fold since the city school system started in 1903

Old Apple-Peeler Is Still Useful Utensil

REUABLE HOUSEWIFE HELPER... of past years, this simpic, noiseless, motorless kitchen device won a cherished spot in the hearts of many homemakers. Commonly called an apple peeler, it can be put to use with equal ease for peeling potatoes, turnips.

pears or other fruits and vegetables of a similar size and texture. This example is owned by Mrs. Ruel Turner of Oak City. < Reflector Photo by Jerry Raynor.

By JERRY RAYNOR Reflector Staff Writer One kitchen device that Mrs. Ruel Turner of Oak City says '*has really seen a lot of constant use" in her home is something that at first glance would not seem to belong to a kitchen Made of four notched gear wheels, a handle, an extension holder, a pointed holder and a tension spring, and a sturdy clamp, the apple peeler is simply but beautifully fashioned. The novice would surely think its a piece of equipment designed for a mans tool shop It works anywhere; thats part of the beauty of it. Mrs Turner said. I can clamp it on a kitchen counter, take it outside to a work table where I can work in the shade, or even fasten it to the edge of a doorstep*"

The apple peeler, Mrs. Turner said, does a good job on anything you want peeled Potatoes, turnips, pears, just about anything After all the use

(Editors note: The following item was taken from the September 8, 1947 edition of The Daily Reflector.)

Flood waters receded today from streets and highways in Eastern North Carolina after a cloudburst Saturday night in which a record-breaking fall of 9.74 inches was recortied here The torrents drove streams out of their banks and washed out portions of Highway 264 between here and Washington and resulted in flooding of homes and businesses here and in Washington.

Ive given it. it still peels thin and clean."

The apple peeler has been in her possession since the early 1960s. I found it along with the other old pieces in the storage room of our hardware store, she explained. (Mrs Turner and her former husband, the late Mr. J(^ny Cherry, purchased the old Woolard Hardware Store in W'illiamston and operated it together until Mr. Cherrys

death a few years ago.)

That was an exciting day for me. she said I was supposed to be helping downstairs, but found these old things upstairs, .iohnny called out, wanting to know if I planned to spend all day rummaging upstairs. But he was pleased too when he saw what I had found, some old ornamental string holders, carpenters laths and a number of

other old fashioned home and trade implements no longer being made There were three or four of the apple peelers in one box, all in excellent condition. These had evidently been overlooked for vears. We put most of these things on sale, and she concluded, this is the only thing from that group that I still keep .So its not only a big help in my kitchen, its a souvenir as well.

Politics Was Riotous Business In The Past

(From North Carolina

History Told By Con

temporaries. Edited by Hugh Talmage Lefler, UNC Professor of History. University of North Carolina Press, 1948).

The whole number of voters was three hundred and seventy-two. at sunset on Saturday the Poll was closed and the sheriff proceeded to call out the tickets; two hundred and eight-two tickets were called out. the hindmost in number on the Poll of the Antifederalists had one hundred and fifty-five votes, the foremost in number of the Federalists had only one hundred and twenty one. and the tickets coming out fast in favor of the Antifederalists, the other party seemed fully convinced they should lose their election and appeared to be much exasperated at the same, especially Colonel B. Sbappard, who with sundry others cast out many aspersions and very degrading and abusive language to the other candidates, which was not returned by any of the

candidates, or any person on their part with so much as one provoking word. At length Colonel A Sheppard went upon the bench and where the sheriffs, inspectors, and clerks were attending their business, and swore he would beat one of the inspectors who had been peaceable and diligently attending to his business, and having a number of clubs ready prepared, the persons holding the candles were suddenly knocked or pulled down and all the candles in the Court House were instantly put out; many blows with clubs were heard to pass (but it being dark they did the most damage to the Federalists). The Antifederal candidates being unapprized of such a violent assault, and expecting better treatment, from men who would wish to wear the character of gentlemen, were in no posture of defense, and finding their lives in danger, thought it most advisable to retire privately in the dark, but one of them (to wit) Isaac

Groom was overtaken in the street, by a party of their men consisting of twelve or fifteen with clubs, who fell on him and much abused him, in so much that he was driven to the neceSsity of mounting his horse and riding for his life; the sheriff also related that in the time of the riot on the Court House he received a blow by a club and that the ticket box was violently taken away.Norfolk and Portsmouth Journa, April 30, 1788.

The Charter Was AmendedAdmirers Of General Greene

By TOM RAINES Reflector Staff Writer

When a town was finally established in 1771 on the southern banks of the Tar River after an earlier attempt had failed, it was chartered under the name of Martinboroufth.

Chartering of the first town in Pitt County by the North Carolina General Assembly took place during the governorship of Josiah Martin, the fifth and last Royal governor who fled in 1775 after independence was gained from the British.

Martin arrived in New Bern

from New York on Aug. 11, 1771 and took the oath of office as governor the following day. As efforts to have a town chartered intensified by Pitts representatives in the Assembly, the decision to choose the name of Martinborough as a compliment to the governor was apparently made in order to aid passage of the bill.

Such action, if compromise was indeed the reason for the choice of Martin as basis for the town name, accomplished its goal as the governor passed the charter, citing the towns location as a likely place for

trade and accepting the use of his name as a compliment.

In a number of instances prior to passage of the charto- as Martinborough, Pitts representatives had introduced legislation calling for a town to be established but, accOTding to documents contained in The Colonial Records of North Carolina, blank spaces often took the place of proposed names for the town.

Such reasoning as to the choice of the name of Martinborough rather than some other designation that might

have been more suitable apparently is not documented but it seems the urgency of the people of Pitt County felt in having a town erected may have justified the choice of names.

When the provisions of the charter of 1771, which directed that the consent of Richard Evans be given in open court in order for his land to be used, were not met since Evans died soon after the original chartering, an amendment was secured in 1774 which authorized Evans widow, Susanna Evans, to consent to the use of the 100

acres of land.

Commissioners appointed by the General Assemy in 1771 to lay out the town and sell lots had proceeded with their duties and therefore the amendment of 1774 also validated titles furnished since 1771 to purchasers oS the half-acre lots.

The amendment also provided that Martinborough become the county seat, with court conducted at the home of John Lessly until a courthouse could be built.

New found and hard fought independence from British rule was realized in the Revolutionary War victory and Pitt County citizens no doubt regretted the choice of Josiah

Martins name as it reminded of Royal dominance and colonialism.

Efforts of the citizens of the county, therefore, led to the securing of an amendment to the charter of 1771 changing the name of the town from Martinborough to Greenesville in a gesture of pride and independence and in recognition of the Revolutionary War victory of Gen. Nathaniel Greene at the Battle of Guilford Court-House. Greene, a Rhode Island native, led a force of 4,400 men against the organized veterans of Lord Cornwallis and dealt him a defeat that was generally regarded as a major factor in leading to Cornwallis later

defeat at Yorktown,

Again, it is difficult to find documentation explaining exactly why the name of Greene was chosen in seeking a change but it is apparent that Pitt County residents wanted nothing, including the name of their town, to remind them of colonial hardships and British domination.

It is interesting to note that the legislation that dealt with the changing of the name to Greenesville was actually a concluding paragraph of an act that established Pitt Academy. The act containing both important measures was passed Jan. 6. 1787.

The spelling, of the name.

Greenesville, as recorded by the Assembly, has undergone changes that, through years of refinement and gradual acceptability, has led to the current spelling of Greenville. Some records refer to the town as Greensville but those in more modem times adopt the recent spelling. Martinstorough also withstood several spelling interpretations.

Martin died in London in 1786. Ironically, it was the year the act was introduced to change the name of the town to

Greenesville. Greene, who returned to his home state of Rhode Island soon after the war ended and then moved to Georgia, also died in 1786.

(Editors note: The following items were taken from the May 8. 1942 tKlition of The Daily Reflector.

Allied and Japanese warships fought to the death today in a mammoth five-<lay old battle in the Coral Sea. northeast of Australia, in which American. British and Australian gunners have already sunk or crippled at least 13 warships United Nations headquarters announced that nine Japanese warships were sunk, including an aircraft carrier, two cruisers, two destroyers and four gunboats

The long Japanese delay in eporting the names of Imerican prisoners taken in the arly states of the war suggested [)day that months may elapse efore those captured or killed in le Phillippines will be known.

On The Stage And Aboard ShowboatEntertainers Came To Town

By JERRY RAYNOR Reflector Swday Editor Public entertainment in Greenville during the first three decades of the 20th century was a potpourri of diverse popular acts bringing the best of those years to the stages of Greenville.

Singers, actors, groups and shows well known at the time appeared here, sometimes for only a couple of performances, sometimes for a weeks run.

Three local residents have reached back into their memories of past years to provide a bicentennial update of Greenville entertainment David J. Whichard, Jr., Chairman of the Board of Directors of The Daily Reflector; Charles White, owner of Whites Stores and Thomas Foreman, &.. retired employee of North Carolina National Bank and currently a member of the Greenville Recreation Commission, talked about former entertainment in Greenville.

All three have one thing in common a manifest enthusiasm for show business and the people in it. E^ch spoke about favorite shows and personalities remembered.

Floating Theater One of the first forms of popular entertainment in Greenville in the early days of the 20th century was a traveling river showboat.

The old Showboat, Whichard recalled, was very popular in Greenville. 1 dont know when it first started coming here, but it was making regular visits before my time Even as late as 1915 and 1916 it came at regular intervals to Greenville, docking at the end of Washington Street on the Tar River.

The editor explained that the Showboat was a fairly large affair, with an auditorium that could seat a couple of hundred people. There was also, he added, dressing rooms and sleeping rooms for the cast on the boat.

Basically, he said, the showboat was a barge, towed by a gasoline or steam engine boat. When the showboat docked at Washington Street, stage hands would throw out planks to connect the boat with the shore for customers to come aboard. Three of the hit shows that Whichard remembers seeing are East Lynn, "The Face On The Barroom Floor, and Sis Hopkins.

Actually, Whichard said, Sis Hopkins was one of those plays that was changed from time to time and is known under various names, but Sis Hopkins is the best known version

Opera Houses In the early part of the 20th century, Greenville had two places of entertainment commonly called opera houses. One was the Old Masonic Temple; the other the Perkins Opera House. Although not full time opera houses in the pattern we think of today, both fulfilled the role of providing staging and seating for an enthusiastic local audience.

The old Masonic Temple burned in 1909 when the courthouse burned, Whichard related. The masonic Temple was unusual in that it had offices on the first floor, the main part of the theater on the second, and the theater balcony on the third floor

Whichard was just a boy when the old opera house burned.

The Fall Of Corregidor

(Editors note: The following items were taken from the May 6. 1942 edition of The Daily Reflector.)

A message from Lieut. Gen Jonathan M. Wainwright, commander of the American forces on Cwregidor, expressing his determination to remain with his men until the end was published in Australia today.

I have been with my men from the start and if captured wUl share their loss, he said

We have been through so much together that my conscience would not let me leave before the fnal curtain. he said

Americans shaken by the, loas of Bataan should not feel that the fall of the Manila bay forts is a double tragedy, but rather an exemplication of the grimneas of our spirit when we suy to the end with the >ob to be

Two productions there I especially remember, Whichard said, were The Klansmen and The Traitor. Both of these plays were written by a North Carolina man. Thomas Dixon. They had a big success on stage.

One thing that impressed Whichard strongly is the way the stage hands would get the horses used on stage in The Klansman from the ground level to the third floor.

There were wooden stairs outside the building, he said, going all the way to the third floor. Stage hands first nailed wooden cleats to the edge of each step to keep the horses from slipping or losing their footing. Then theyd blindfold the horses and lead them up step by step. We kids always gathered to watch, and it was a marvel to me that the horses never fell.

Perkins Opera The concreted parking lot behind Blount Harvey on East Fourth and Washington Streets is the site of the now demolished Perkins Opera House.

The Perkins Opera House also had an unusual arrangement. Whichard said. The first floor of the building housed a horse stable. The auditorium was on the second floor.

Whichard explained that the Perkins establishment was used for both local musical and drama productions and for dances The seats were the folding kind that could be removed any time a dance was scheduled.

Those were the years of the waltz, the two step and then the fox-trot. Later came the Big-Apple. which is something of a remake of square dancing and the Virginia Reel.

He said the pre-World War I years and the years that followed were not noted for-interest in square dancing. That has made a comeback in much more recent years. By the time the Black Bottom. the Cliarleston and other dances of the flapper decade became popular. Whichard added, the old Perkins Opera House was no longer used for dancing.

Whites Theater Whichard and White both recalled people and shows that came to the stage of Whites Theater, which opened in 1912. Now the Park Movie Theater, the only part of the original building left are the outer walls. 'Die stage, dressing rooms and all the backdrop scenery were removed in renovations made in the early 1970s Im sure. White said, there are many people in Greenville who remember with fondness the piano playing of Miss Annie Freeman. She was from Norfolk and was a regular accompanist for many of the shows.

One show that came a number of times and one that people always looked forward to was the Mutt and Jeff Show, \\hite added There were many shows, revues and groups that came here that were popular with the entire, family. Both men mentioned a form of intermission entertainment that never ceased to be an audience favorite. White players changed scenery and touched up their make-up. a soloist, male or female, would lead the audience in singing In those years, the sing-along was called illustrated song singing. This was done by means of lantern slides that projected the words of popular songs on a screen-like device

done.

Snowed In By 1927 Blizzard

(Editors note- 'The following item was taken from the March 2. 1927 edition of The Daily Reflector.)

Greenville is today in the midst of what is described by older residents as one of the worst blizzards since back in the 90s. Shortly after the noon hour the snow had reached an average depth of more than a foot and the flakes continued to fly thick and fast

Because of the weather the city schools were closed and business in general is at a. standstill Traffic movement was almost impossible and automobiles stuck deep in the snow were abandoned by the drivers

hung between the parted curtains. Young and old alike joined in with the song leader in singing vmes of old favorites.

Operas sad Plays TVvo operas staged at Whites that drew a fine response ftom Greenville audiences, Whichard recalled, were "Verdis II Trovatore and Balfes Bohemian Girl. Both of these operas were staged by the touring section of the Boston English Opera (Company, which was a leading company in taking opera on the road in those days. (Michael W. Balfes comk opera, Bohnian Girl, was for many decades a tremendously successful musical both in the U.S. and in Europe. Premiered in Lmidon in IMS, Balfes opera was based on Vemoy St. Georges ballet, "The Gypsy. Alfred Bunn provided the lyrics. Three of the operas hit songs are still heard occasionally I Dreamt I Dwelled In Marbled Halls, Then Youll Remember, and The Heart Bowed Down.) The touring stock companies that came to Greenville, Whichard said, ran their shows for two or three days, and some played as long as a week. Whichard sp<Ae with praise of Jeanne E^agles portrayal of the lead role in the stage version of Somerset Maughams famous story. Rain. Miss Elagles was an understudy at that time for Elsie Ferguson, he said. After the play had had a successful run, the original company split into two traveling companies to take the play on the road. Jeanne took the cast that came south and Elsie heacied the western tour.

Two other favorites of the early 20th century decades that made big hits in Greenville at Whites Theater was an operetta Blossom Time, and a variety show, Polly of The Circus. Polly, Whichard said, was great fun for everybody. The company had trained horses and ponies on stage! It was a colorful production.

TTiCTes one thing Id like to say, Whichard concludes his reminiscences, Greenville had the finest in shows of all types popular at that time. Mr. Sam White got the best entertainment available for Greenville. Hiere was little he didnt manage to bring here. He booked hundreds of top shows before the movies came and took the (dace of live shows.

Black Entertainment To a great extent, popular entertainment in the 1920s and 1930s in Greenville was a segregated affair.

The Colonial Theater on Albemarle Street, Thomas Foreman. Sr. said, featured traveling minstrel shows, vaudeville and revues with casts made up mostly of blacks for the black audience in town.

As manager of the Colonial theater for a number of years, young Foreman was in contact with the stream of performers locally and nationally known that appeared on the Colonial stage.

We had some great stars, some of the real all-time performers, Foreman said. People like Bessie Smith and Adelaide Hall. We also had Tim McCoy and WUd BiU Hickok. The Colonial 'Theater closed for a couple of years during the depression, but reopened as the Plaza Theater.

We had a mixture of movies and live acts for a number of years, Foreman said. By the late 1930s movies had become the predominant thing, but occasionally we still had a live show. As late as 1947, he added, we had a fine revue from New York, the Brown Skin Models.

Teat Shows During the same years that revues and vaudeville were playing inside the Colonial 'nieater, a nearby open space was the scene of numerous tent shows. <

'These shows, Foreman said, 'Svere set up in an qpen space in the Albemarie-Pamlico Streets area.

Several of the big name tent shows had all-Negro casts, as many as 50 in a' troupe. Others included a few white performers.

Some of the tent shows that came the years I remember best, that is from 19M on, Foreman said, were Milt Tolbert, the Florida Blossoms and Silas Green from New Orleans.

Even before I was connected with the Colonial Theater, I remember the excitement when these shows arrived. Moat of the time, theyd pull in on the railroad siding along Diddaaon Avenue.

Their arrival was always

marked by a parade, he smiled. I suppose that was to promote themselves. The parades would be down Dickinson to Five Points, where the musicians assembled to give a short free concert.

According to Foreman, the coming of World War II was the beginning of the end for tent shows.

Dance Bands

Yet anotim popular form of entertainment for Greenvilles Negro population in the 20s and 30s was dance bands that came in periodically. Foreman added that dance bands were also popular with the white population, and mentioned the Buy Lombardo band as one that appeared during the heydey of big bands.

At the Gorman Warehouse, Foreman said, Wed have aB black bands. Most of these were arranged by local promoters, the Cherry Brothers and Henry W. Payton. We had, for examine, bands like the Carolina Stom-pers from Wilson, Abe Dunn of Kinston, and the Capital Gty Aces of Raleigh.

These were held in warehouses,, Foreman said. In those days, some of the tobacco wardMHJses had space underneath whoe farmers could stable their mules, and rooms situated around a balcony above the warehouse floor where farmers could spend the night.

I recall seeing people bring their children and let them sleep on old bundles of burlap or sacl of fertilizer against the wall, or any place they could find.

People would come in aB clean and dressed up, Foreman said, but by the time the dance was over, everybody was dusty and dirty. I think pe<^le really

enjoyed it, however.

Some natkmaUy known bands also made occasional appearances in the warehouse dances.

I recaB the Ike Dixon band of BaltinKMW and the famous Earl Hines Band being booked in Greenville, Foreman said.

Coaty Festival Leaving the subject of professional entsrtainment. Foreman wistfully talked about one of the flnest shows of aB for Pitt County children. It used to be the custom, he explained, when I was a school boy, to have aB the school chUdren of

Pitt County and the city schools ssasmWf In Greenville on May Day.

TWed be a Mg parade, though the only musk was usuaBy that of a single drum. nilB would be followed by a field day of aB sorts of events sack raeos, pole climbs, aid many

other things that children thoroughly enjoyed.

I know, he concluded, we cant bring back minstrel shows and vaudeviBe, but I would love to see the schools bring back the May Day festivities. I believe the kids would enjoy it as much as we did then.

BACK IN 1912...the members of the Dixie Fashion Plate Minstrels gathered for this phoU^raph while appearing in Garrington, North Dakota. The Dixie Fashion Plate Minstrel Show was one of many

bringing enterUinment to GrecnvUle In the early years of the 20th century. (Photograph courtesy Mrs. 'Thomas Foreman, Sr.)

Region South Of Virginia Deeded To Robert Heath

The Dailv Reflector, Greenville. N.C.Sunday, October f, If74V*ll *

(From North Carolina

History Told By Con

temporaries. Edited by Hugh Talmage Lefler, UNC Professor of History. University of North Carolina Press, 1948).

The region south of Virginia between 31 and 36 degrees north latitude was granted to Sir Robert Heath in 1629. He made no serious efforts to settle his grant, however. Meanwhile traders and settlers continued to come from Virginia into the Carolina country, and by 1660 certain English courtiers were beginning to take notice of this mWement. In that year, Charles II was restored to the throne of England, and within a few years this merrie monarch granted Carolina to eight of the most prominent men in England. Soon after the proprietary grant was made, the Heath claimants protested, maintaining that they had the prior rights to this territory. The dispute was referred to the Privy Council, which was dominated by certain of the Proprietors. Accordingly, an order in council of August 22, 1663, declared the Heath patent void for non-use. Claims under it continued to be urged until 1768, when the descendants of Daniel C^xe, of New Jersey, to whom the patent had been transferred in 1696, received from the Crown a grant of 100,(K)0 acres of land in New York in satisfaction of their claim.

The names of most of the eight Proprietors have been preserved in the names of counties, towns, rivers, sounds, and otherwise.

Education Saw Small BeginningsBy 1855y 99 School Houses

By STli ART SAVAGE Reflector Staff Writer

More money is spent on education public tax support for the Pitt County and City of Greenville public school systems in the county today than on any other government service to the people.

But it has not always been this way. Education in Pitt had a very small beginning.

In the same year that

?lreenville was founded in 786 when the General Assembly authorized the movement of the county court house, jail, and stocks from Martinsboro to create a new county seat the legislature also authorized the establishment of Pitt Academy.

Greenville Academy was started some years later, in 1814, then in 1830 Greenville Female Academy was chartered. The following year, 1831. two other schools were founded Clemmons Academy and Contentnea Academy, then in 1932 Jordan Plain Academy began operations.

By 1855. there were 99 school houses in the county, serving some 8,700 students. The 86 teachers had an average salary of S27.14 per month. And the school term was only 98 days long

In 1856, a total of $1,289.40 was received by the county from state school funds.

In comparison, there are now-some 11,500 students attending school in the county. The 600 teachers in the system receive from about $8,000 to $12,500 per year in salary and the state this year will provide about $6.88 million with which to help fund the county school operation.

A report by the Superintendent of Common Schools of North Carolina in 1858 listed 37 schools in the county, with attendance set at 668 males and 474 females.

The school term was then 3 and four-sevenths months long.

An 1869 report by the state school superintendent showed 31 school houses in the county, with public school money totaling $2,725.50 and 5,451 students between the ages of six and 21-years old

Another report some years later listed 10 private schools and academies in the county during 1873-1874.

Also in 1873, the Superintendent of Public Instruction for the state approved eight white male and 19 white female teachers for the county as well as six colored teachers, three male and three female.

In 1879, the State Department of Agriculture, in its Handbook of North Carolina reported 26 white and 30 colored schools in Pitt.

In 1883, Josephus Lathem became the first full time superintendent of county schools and he attempted to consolidate the small one-room school houses that dotted the county.

Some five years later, the General Assembly passed legislation establishing a three-man board to handle school business and the first county Board of Education was established, with S. M. Jones, Amos G. Cox and W.F. Harding its first members. And William Ragsdale was elected by the board as county superintendent. Ragsdale was the fifth superintendent of schools for the county.

In 1890, according to county historian-author Henry T. King, educational opportunities were good, with single-room frame buildings used for school houses and home made desks and benches. There were also glass windows and blackboards then.

Bethel, in 1902, became the first town in the county to vote in

favor of a special tax and established a graded school staffed by five teachers and with an eight-month school term instead of the normal three-month long school year.

That same year a professional teachers organization the Pitt County Teachers Association was formed.

Then a year later, in 1903, Greenville residents voted a special tax and two graded schools were opened in the couhty seat in November of that year . . . one for black students as well as one for white. Greenville had six teachers and one superintendent.

This same year the residents of Ayden voted a special school tax on themselves and a school was opened there.

By 1911, according to author King, school houses in the county were ... modem, with many of them being approved by the state. They are furnished with patent desks having maps and pictures on their walls, are well lighted and heated and have valuable libraries.

The music rooms, he continued, are even better equipped and have oil stoves and upright pianos.

In 1800, the average school term was 73 days. By 1912, the average term ran from 101 to 160 days. And as the school term increased, other progress was made.

In 1905-1906 there were 80 schools in the county, 69 of them one-teacher schools. Progress was made, and by 1917-1918 there were 80 rural white schools in Pitt, with only 39 of them being one-teacher facilities as well as three public schools in Greenville (with 23 teachers).

By 1920 consolidation had cut the number of schools in the county to 70, with only 31 one-teacher units.

A comparison of student populations shows that in 1908-1909, the white student population of the county totaled 5,875 while only 5,221 were enrolled in school. For the same period, colored student population was 5,152 with only 3,220 students attending.

For the school year 1917-1918, the white student population of the county amounted to 6,843 with 5,157 attending school as compared with the black student population of 5,557 of which 4,028 were enrolled in school.

Looking back again to 1911, King noted that nearly every town had a white graded school and many white districts in the county employed more than one teacher. That year there were 132 white teachers and 57 black teachers in the county.

Although some consolidation had been taking place in the county, the first consolidation as the standard policy of the Pitt County system occurred about 1916 when the Bell Arthur school was constructed. When that community in Western Pitt County was being laid out between 1907 and 1911, seven acres of land were set aside for a school building and funding of that school was accomplished by charging $6 per person paying poll tax. Prior to that time consolidation had been more of a matter of necessity. Now it was being carried out to provide a higher quality education and better facilities.

Two other consolidated schools opened that same year included the Bethel Primary and Grifton Elementary facilities.

Also in 1916, Pitt had 221 teachers and a 100-day school term and the superintendent of schools had an annual salary of $1,825.

Congletons General Store Prices Were

Nothing Like Todays

We Are Headquarters!

By ROSALIE TROTMAN Reflector Womans Editor

Bargain pricesone arithmetic book, 36 cents, a trunk for $3.50, a pair of shoes selling for $1.50, a suit at $9.50 and three yards of homespun costing eight cents.

Tbese prices were taken from ledger sheets of J. S. Congleton and Co., a general store operated in Greenville from 1881 until 1893.

According to research conducted by Dr. Joseph Congleton of Greenville, his grandfathers store was located in the vicinity of Fourth and Evans Street, next door to JaiSis and Co.

In a compiled review of the industries of Greenville, John S. Congleton and Co. was listed as occupying a two-story brick building 30 by 80 feet in extent, adapted and arranged in every way to expedite transactions.

A warehouse, 40 by 65 feet in the rear of the store, was used for storing duplicate and heavy stock. The store was engaged in general merchandising and sold everything used for the feeding or clothing of man or beast.

Groceries, dry goods, clothing, hats and caps, hardware and saddlery items were also sold by the store. J.S. Congleton and Co. was known for its heavy trade in

shoes and was the only firm here that sent buyers to Boston in spring and fall for purchasing. The store stocked school books used in the schools of this section.

Their stock was valued at $18,000 to $20,000 and their annual trade amounted to $75,000.

The printed review stated that four employees assisted the proprietors and that two drays were kept busy in the season.

My grandfathers store was started in 1881 and continued in business until the cotton panic in 1893. My father. J. W. Congleton has related that his father purchased $3,000 in shoes which was a Greenville novelty and that all the towns people visited the store to see that display of shoes. stated Dr. Congleton.

Grandfather started clerking in a store at age 15 and before he went into business for himself, he was the highest paid clerk in Greenville, receiving $50 a month, stated Dr. Congleton.

After he sold his business, grandfather was a traveling shoe company representative.

"Coming back to Greenville, he worked for J. B. Cherry, J.R. and J.G. Moye and then Blount Harvey. He retired roughly in his late 70s.

He was bom in Greenville on

March 1, 1855, on Third Street and died in 1937, added Dr. Congleton.

An editorial printed in The Eastern Reflector on April 19, 1882. listed other Greenville businesses, T.R. Cherry and Co., J. B. Hibbs, Alfred Forbes. Richard Williams and Son, B.S. Sheppard, C.A. White, Marcellus Moore and E.B. Moore as carrying a complete stock of general merchandise. Groceries and provisions were sold by D. Lichtenstein and Co., H. Sheppard and Co., James Long and Brown and Wilson.

Other stores dealt in dry goods, clothing, hardware, agricultural implements, light groceries, bakery and candy manufactory, wholesale groceries, drugs and medicines, jewelers, millinery and ladies fancy goods, liquors, boots and shoes and two carriage factories.

During this period of 1879-86, a building program was being conducted and 18 new brick stores were built. In my opinion, my grandfathers store was typical and representative of economic prosperity in Greenville in the 1880s.

In the 1880s, Greenville was rapidly becoming a little commercial supply town that

Pitt School Houses...

(Continued from Page Vl-2) large step toward consolidation came the following year in 1917 when the first school bus was placed in operation.

That first bus known at that time by various names, including motor truck, school automobile truck, and school truck was purchased and placed in operation at Falkland. That was the second school bus in the state.

It traveled a six-mile route gathering children attending the Falkland School.

That same year the Pitt County Training School in Grimesland was opened.

The 1920s saw much progress toward consolidation. Former superintendent D. H. Conley (superintendent from July 1. 1932 until 1965) said of Robert Fitzgerald who headed the county sch(X)l system from 1921 until Conley took over in 1932. ..J>e did a remarkable job of consolidation. He wanted to build schools in every township, so there would be a high school as well as an elementary school in every township. This meant sweeping away many smaller schools for consolidation.

Included among consolidated schools constructed during the 1920s were the Winterville Academy in 1921, Falkland Elementary in 1922, Farmville Junior High in 1924, the Stokes-Pactolus Grammar in 1927, Ayden Grammer in 1929 and the (Tiicod Elementary in 1929.

By 1932during the depression years, there were 78 schools in the county with an enrollment of 9,846 and a teaching staff of 298.

Conley said of those years, ...it looked as if it was almost impossible to operate. The thing that got schools going again was the beginning of state support in 1933.

A major construction program began after the worst of the depression years and during the period of 1936-1938, major improvements included con

struction of new high schools in Bethel and Grimesland, the addition of eight classrooms and an auditorium at Chic(xl, four classnx)ms and a new high school in Winterville, a new black school at Bethel as well as a six-room building at the Farmville black school and a four-room building at the Winterville black school.

lilis was the last major sch<x)l construction period for the next 13 years, due primarily to World War II.

In 1949, with funding from the state, through the passage of a bond issue and surplus state funds, the county improved schools at Belvoir Grammar, Bethel Union, Grifton Black, Grimesland, W. H. Robinson, Grifton Negro, Grimesland Elementary, Bethel primary, Stokes Elementary, as well as G. R. Whitfield, North Fountain and Pactolus Elementary.

The improvements included construction of additional classrooms as well as some offices and gyms and cafeterias.

Then again, in 1952, the (General Assembly voted funds for school construction and the money Pitt received from the state helped make the 1950s progressive years for Pitt schools, for the quality of education improved as did the facilities. Teachers were being paid higher salaries and new ideas were being tested.

In 1954, the United States Supreme Ck>urt ruled that all public schools were to be desegregated. However, like most other areas of the nation, no real effort to desegregate the schools was made until the 1960s when federal court orders forced action by the local school administration.

'The year 1964 saw the passage of another state bond issue for schools. That same year the county system consisted of 25 schools with 514 teachers

With funds from the 1964 state bond program and money from bonds voted by county residents

in 1966, further new construction was accomplished.

On June 30, 1965, Conley retired as superintendentafter 33 years of service with the school system, first as a teacher, then principal and finally superintendentand the current Superintendent, Arthur S. Alford took over as the new leader of the school system.

Five years after Alford took over as superintendant, the new North Pitt High Schoolone of four new consolidated high schools in the countywas opened, replacing the high schools at Belvoir-Falkland, Stokes-Pactolus, Bethel and Bethel Union.

Then in 1971 the other three consolidated high schools D. H. Conley, Ayden-Grifton and Farmville Central were opened thus closing old schools at Grimesland, Chicod, Winterville, Ayden, and Farmville.

This was true consolidation.

And with the opening of the new schools, new courses, such as journalism, art, Spanish and occupational programs, could be offered.

The consolidation also allowed the old buildings to be converted to elementary school facilities, which, in turn, allowed the countys primary and grammar grades to be organized into a unitary system.

Today, the school system is a large and modem one.

Some 11,500 students were enrolled during the 1973-1974 school year, with enrollment in the four high sch<x>ls ranging from 840 students at Ayden-Grifton to 1,112 at Farmville Central.

And the 1973-1974 budget-which provided funds for the operation of the 22 schools in the countytotaled some $1.01 million for current expenses and $535,400 in capital outlay funds.

. FARMVILLE BLACK SCHOOL . . . This 17-rooM. 17-(cacher Iwifcliag served FarmvUle MacKs daiiag the ins-lf school year. The

enrollment of the school was reported then at 764, with an average attendance of 573.

catered to the prosperous farmers of that period, Dr. Congleton continued.

In reviewing newspaper articles and comments appearing in The Eastern Reflector, Greenville was obviously searching for an identity as a market center in the east. It was a period of optimism and economic excess, which I think my grandfathers business also represented. For' example, in terms of financing, eight per cent interest was charged on mortgages, h added.

Information printed in Harry Skinner and Companys ad in* "The Eastern Reflector on May 11, 1887, stated, A special branch of our business will be to furnish cash at reasonable rates to farmers to cultivate and harvest their crops in sums of $100 to $2,000 with approved security.

Stores available to the 20th century shoppers include large supermarkets, clothing stores for men, women and children, department and appliance stores, jewelry stores and novelty shops.

Bucket Brigades Came First

By STUARTSAVAGE RenectorSUffWrUer

It is said that Benjamin FranWin organised the first fire department in America, in Philadelphia.

No one may actually know, but early fire departments consisted of a group of men equipped with a ladder, leather buckets and helmets. They were the bucket brigade . . the men who ran to the scene of a fire and passed buckets of water from man to man to be thrown on the blaze by hand.

So it was in Greenville in the late 1800s.

When the cry of fire was heard in the streets, the Rough and Ready firemen grabbed their buckets and ladder and ran. Speed was important, because if the bucket brigade didnt respond before the fire got oyt of hand, the building would be lost.

The early-day firefighters got

their waterby bucketfrom near-by hand pumps, a ditch, well, cisterns under the streets or even from the river.

Those Rough and Ready firemen were 12 blacks who banded together to fight fire. Each one bought his own bucket and their ladder was Rough and Ready made.

Until 18%, they were the only firemen in townand even today. the Greenville Fire Department has its Rough and Ready firemen, a motivated group of 12 black volunteers.

There were only about 10 fire departments in the state in 18%. Firefighting units in nearby Washington and New Bern were among the first to be organized.

In May of 18%, the town of Greenville took on the job of sponsoring a fire department and a new department, including the dozen Rough and Ready firemen, plus a company of 24 white volunteers was organized.

The newly organized fire department applied for a charter in January of 1897 and it was received June 17 of the same year. The volunteers then became the Hope Fire Company.

The first recorded meeting of the Hope Fire Company was held in the mayors office on June 8, 18%. Secretary A. B. Ellington recorded the minutes of the meeting in long-hand, reporting that Hope Fire Company Foreman F. M. Hodges presided at the meeting.

A committee was formed to ask the towns governing board for lanterns, one nozzle and a length of suction hose for the engine. And the company treasurer was instructed to buy two rubber suits for the pipemen (now called hoseman) who would handle the nozzle at the fire scene.

Greenvilles first fire engine, apparently purchased in the early- to mid-1890s was a steam

pumper pulled by the firemen themselves.

During a drill on July 20,18%, the engine was pulled to the river to test its suction hose. The leather hose leaked and reports say only a trickle of water reached the pump. The engine was then pulled back to the fire house and a committee was formed to tell the town council of the problems and to request a replacement for the hose.

On September 28 another drill was held and this time the old hose worked and the engine reportedly performed well.

Then in December, a committee was appointed to meet with the town council and request 200 feet of new fire hose and an alarm bell to call firemen together for a fire.

In 1899 the town council ordered a horse and harness to pull the municipal fire engine, and in 1906 the town was asked to begin using a whistle rather than the

bell as a fire alarm at night.

In February 1914, the fire company bought a pool table for $75 and just over a year later, in March 1915 the minutes of the meeting show that one Hope Fire Company member was fined $2 for not fighting a fire a short time before.

As time went by, things changed in the firefighting business.

Beginning in 1910, when the fire alarm sounded, a new hose wagon carrying the old steamer, would race down the street being pulled by galloping horses, Pat and Dan.

Then in 1916, the town bought its first fire truck and the old steamer with its plume of smoke and galloping horses was gone.

The steamer ended up on the banks of the Tar River pumping water into the towns supply when the river level was low.

Pat and Dan were retired to ignominious duty as pullers of the citys garbage collection wagon.

Another fire truck was bought in 1922, and the old fire bell gave way to an electric alarm system.

As fire trucks became more streamlined and faster, firemen became better trained.

Some people referred to the old-time firemen as the wrecking crew. What was not burned up, they said, was torn up, or flooded with water.

But training and modern equipment have changed the picture.

George W. Gardner, Greenvilles first paid fire chief, was hired as a truck driver in 1923.

We had a cistern ... it has since been filled with dirt... at the intersection of Fourth and Evans Streets, Gardner said in a 1969 interview, before his death.

In that same interview, the man who headed the GreenviUe Department until he retired in 1963, said, Remember, as you look back ... that since 1928 a continuous training program with training manuals has been going on.

When Gardner was hired by the fire department, he received $25 per month.

Gardner was joined by another paid fireman in 1926, Jasper L. Jones who retired as chief of the department in 1968, and in 1929 by Berry Sumrell who stayed with the department as assistant chief until his retirement in 1%9.

Greenvilles current fire chief Ray Smith the third paid chief in the citys history remembers his early association with the department.

When I was eight, I hung around the fire station (then

located on the South side of East Fifth Street mid-way between Cotanche and Evans StreeU) so much they made me their mascot. he said.

He ran errands for the three paid firemen Gardner, Jones and Sumrell and would sleep on the fire hoses coiled on the back of the truck to make sure he would not be left behind if an alarm was sounded when he could give his parents who lived next door to the station the slip. In fact, he finally moved into the station and never returned to his home.

Smith, who became chief following the retirement of Jones in 1968, joined the department in 1942.

Ed Foley, former chief Jones father-in-law was a volunteer fireman in Greenville in 1922. He

And the use of modem trucks, self-contained breathing apparatus. high pressure fog (which smothers confined fires with steam, more quickly than a straight stream of water can cool a blaze and put it out) and better protective clothing allow the modern firefighter to more quickly extinguish fires and with much less damage from water

secretary of the North Carolina State Firemens Association which was organized in 1887.

The Farmville Fire Department, organized in 1938, was the second department to be organized in the county.

As the years went by, better equipment was developed for fire fighting and more departments were organized throughout Pitt, both municipal departments, serving such communities as Ayden. Win-terville. Grifton and Bethel; and rural volunteer fire companies such as Staton-House and Eastern Pines, to serve rural residents

Today, there are some 18 fire departments throughout the county (not including Greenville) serving rural areas with 40 modern trucks.

The rural department boom started in the 1950s but really received a boost when, in 1963, the county hired its first fulltime fire marshal to oversee operations of the nu-al fire companies.

And in 1968, a 24-hour answering system, coupled with a county-wide fire alarm system resulted in faster reporting of fires and a quicker response time by fire units.

The radio-alarm system now links the countys fire trucks, fire stations and fire marshals office so that the departments operate like a unified city department with sub-stations^, each helping the other on large fires.

Historically firefighters have been thought of as men. But with

FUNERAL CEREMONIES 1775

In the early days of North Carolina history, funerals were public affairs. They were among the most important social functions. Private burials were illegal, and every planters was required to set apart a Burial .Place & fence the same for the interring of all such Christian Persons whether Bond or Free*^ that shall die on their (his) Plantations. but nobody could be buried until at least Three or

Four of the Neighbors (had been called) to view the Corpse. Considerable publicity was given to the burial of the dead. Invitations were sent to relatives 'and friends. 'There was much eating and drinking. Seven gallons of whiskey were drunk at the funeral in Mecklenburg County in 1767, at the expense of the estate.

In her charming Journal of a Lady of Quality, Miss Janet Schaw gives an interesting account of the funeral of Jean Corbin at Point Pleasant, near Wilmington, in 1775. Mrs. Corbin was the widow of James

Innes and of Francis Corbin, and she was buried between her two husbands in a manner suitable to her fortune.

Everybody of fashion both from the town and round the country were invited, but the Solemnity was greatly hurt by a set of Volunteers, who, I though , must have fallen from the moon ; above a hundred of whom (of both sexes) arrived in canoes, just as the clergyman was going to begin the service, and made such a noise, it was hardly to be heard. A hogshead of rum and broth and vast quantities of

pork, beef and com-bread were set forth for the entertainment of these gentry. But as they observed the tables already covered for the guests, after the funeral, they took care to be first back from it, and before any one got to the hall, were placed at the tables, and those that had not room to sit carried off the dishes to another room, so that an elegant entertainment that had been provided went for nothing. At last they got into their canoes, and I saw them row thro the creeks, and suppose they have little spots of ground up the woods, which afford them corn

and pork, and that on such occasions they flock down like crows to a carrion.

'They were no sooner gone than the Negroes assembled to perform their part of the funeral rites, which they did by running, jumping, crying and various exercises. 'They are a noble troop, the best in all the country;

Dear Fellow Citizen:

Pitt Technical Institute has just completed its first ten years of service to the people of Pitt County and Eastern North Carolina. Although this first decade has not been free of growing pains, Pitt Tech has made significant strides toward fulfilling its designated purposes.

PTI began the fall quarter of 1964 with 96 students enrolled in nine curriculum programs. In 1974, this number has grown to a curriculum enrollment of over 1050 in 24 programs.

Yet, the full impact of our Institute cannot be adequately assessed solely in terms of enrollments, programs, and graduates. Pitt Tech, for example, has provided training to strengthen all law enforcement, fire protection and emergency rescue departments in Pitt County. The school's masonry class alone has bricked over 35 churches and fire departments in the county.

During the past four years, nearly 500 adults have completed high school through our programs and scores of others have learned to read and write.

As one of PTI's major roles is the preparation of an adequate work force for business and industry, and constant upgrading of personnel for these firms, much time has been directed toward these ends. Some $200, 000 has been invested by PTI in new industry training programs.

Another interesting effect of Pitt Tech has been its sheer economic impact upon Pitt County. In fiscal year 1972-73, for example, Pitt Tech received $144, 000 in-county funds. Research has shown that the return on this local investment (through institutional, staff and student expenditures in the county) totaled over $3,188, 000. This benefit, plus the benefits of the institution's services would appear to justify its continued existence.

PTI has expanded so rapidly in recent years that its facilities have failed to keep pace with expanded enrollments and services. Currently, both facilities on the main campus are seriously overcrowded and several curricula are having to be taught in temporary, off-campus quarters. Some progress is being made to expand the facilities, but much more is needed. If such expansion can be realized. Pitt Technical Institute can look forward to a second decade of service which will equal or surpass the first decade, and Jt is toward this end that we shall direct our talents and energies.

Access To Pitt Or Greenvie Never Good

Roads Were Always Problem

B> STl'ARTSAVAr.K Keflector Staff Writer

Modern-day Pitt County residents complain that there are no super highways connecting the East with Piedmont North Carolina no four-lane roads leading from the Greenville area to the centers of commerce in the central and western parts of the state or to Northern markets or to the South

The lack of these big highways. "they say. has prevented the East, and especially the Pitt County-Greenville area from developing its full potential.

So it has been from the beginning of history (although some local natives feel that this might not be such a bad thing because they seem to like the rural atmosphere of Greenville-past rather than see an industrialized and polluted Greenville-future)

Access to the Eastern countiesto Pitt and to Greenville has never been good, and those modern-day complaintants just don't remember how bad things were in the 1700s and 1800s TYansportation in Pitt County has taken varied forms, from Indian foot paths and horse trails, to riverboat and railroad traffic and plank roads.

When DeSota. the Spanish explorer came to the mountains of what is now North Carolina in 1540some 200 years before Pitt County was formed and a half-century before settlers landed on Roanoke Island^je found only Indian trails, just as did the later immigrants to Roanoke Island that founded what is now known as the Lost Colony.

Waterways in the East became the white mans roads The sounds and the rivers of the coastal region were used as highways to move people and goods from place to place. Moving over the water was easier than moving through the dense forests on the poor trails of the early days of colonization.

And little was done to build roads until the need for improved land transportation routes increased as plantations began to expand into areas lacking water connections Those first roads were established when the people of an area got together and simply cut back the bush to widen foot trails and relied on the sun to keep the Toad dry Later, corduroy roads or log roads, made by laying logs lengthwise along the trail and crossing them with small cuttings and sometimes adding sandy soil for surfacing were used to help make marshy parts of trails passable. These types of roads were still in use when the state formed its road system decades later, in 1921 A 1770 map of Pitt County shows some roads, the first such map to indicate more than just foot trails or waterways were available for travelers Greenville came into being in 1786 when the General Assembly authorized the movement of the court house, jail and stocks from Martinboro to create a new county seat. A year later* in 1787 a free ferry was established across the Tar River at Greenville, to aid travelers in crossing Some dirt roads turned to wood in 1850. That year six plank

roads were chartered in North Carolina One of those was a Greenville-to-Raleigh trail that was completed to Wilson in 1853, following generally the route of the present-day I.S 264 Some .30 years before, in the 1820s the free ferry across the river at Greenville was discontinued and wooden bridge constructed to take its place.

The legislation chartering the Greenville-to-Raleigh Plank Road also provided for penalties for persons failing to pay the toll fee .According to the law. an> "white person traveling on the road shall pay a fine of $5 unless the proper tolls" had been paid. Slaves" the law indicated, should be punished with not more than 25 lashes" for their failure to pay proper tolls while using the plank highway These plank roads cost about $1.500 per mile, and were eight feet wide In 1908 the wooden bridge avross the Tar at Greenville was replaced with a steel one costing $50.000. That same year a steel bridge was built across Big Contentnea Creek at Grifton.

By 1920. the county had six improved" roads. They were listed as the New Bern, the Kinston, the Old Plank Road, the Stantonburg. and the River Road (running directly through Greenville) and the Tarboro roads.

There were several miles of paved streets in Greenville then, and the Kinston and Plank Roads were being surfaced. Until 1921. when the legislature set up 10 per cent of the states 55.000 miles of roads as a central State responsibility, all roads had been under local governmental control.

The next great step in road development came in 1931 when the State took over maintenance of all roads.

But it wasnt until Gov. W. Kerr Scotts term in office, when a $200 million bond issue was passed by the voters of the state, .hat motorists were taken out of he mud (and Pitt voters cast 2.379 ballots for the new paved farm-to-market system and 2.421 against).

Thus did the Indian trails and Colonial stage routes and the plank roads become the concrete and asphalt highways of today.

The improvements in roads over the years spelled the end of rail passenger service and even the end of some railroads. . the same way the coming of the railroads and the improvements in the roads themselves spelled the end for the steamboat.

Prior to the advent of the steamboat, river traffic in the 1700s consisted of flats or raftlike boats, designed primarily to carry goods such as salt for packing pork. tar. bees wax. pitch turpentine and other products of Pitt County to outside markets. From about 1720, when the "flats started to be used in number, until the coming of the first steamboats about 1830, the traffic on the Tar was practically all one-way-outgoing.

The Tar was Pitt Countys "road to the sea . the only commercial link with the outside world for many years.. .until the days after the Civil War when the railroads finally took over.

With the coming of the riverboat Anidas, which pulled

u.wuitire

into Tarboro on October 27, 1849 for the first timepulling four flatsreal two-way river traffic began.

Although the Anidas was the first steamer to be permantly assigned to the Tar River, the Virginia Transport Co., in 1834, assigned two boats to the river run for a time.. .the 70-ton North Carolina and the 120-ton Petersburg.

River traffic stopped during the Civil War, but began again in 1869. And in 1884 the Tar River Transportation Co. was organized and put the Edg^omb on the river.

The Beta, a 60-ton craft began service in 1887. The R.L. Mayers II, a 200-foot long craft also plied the waters of the Tar.

Showboats visited Greenville as early as 1894. And the James Adams Floating Theater, built in Washington, N.C. in 1913, docked at the foot of what is now Evans Street to bring entertainment to the Pitt County area.

Greenvilles steamboat landing was at the foot of Side Street (done away with when Greenvilles urban renewal program created the Town Commons along the river). The Old Dominion Steamboat Co. and the Gyde Lines had docks and warehouses there.

The Tar, not wide enough for side-wheelers, saw primarily stern-wheelers and screw propeller driven craft.

Such boats as the Cotton Plant, the Tar, Post Boy, the Governor Morehead, the Shiloh and the Greenville maintained scheduled service as late as 1919, although the steamboat traffic on the river began to fade at the turn of the century.

The Greenville scheduled runs from Tarboro to Greenville and Washington on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and made the return trip up river on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.

The riverboats stopped not only at Tarboro and Greenville, but visited landings in Pitt County with names such as Bensborough, Red Banks, Cherry Landing, Summit Hill, Strawberry Hill, Yankee Hall, and Grimes Landing.

The advance of rail service brought an end to the river steamers, however.

One last effort to keep river traffic alive was made, though. In 1936. the Army Corps of Engineers gave a favorable report to a plan to dredge the river and work was conducted to provide a 12 to 14 foot deep channel 100 feet wide up the Tar to Hardees Creek Landing, known more recently as the Port Terminal.

On October 12, 1940, a boat load of sugar was docked at the new port.

Again warWorld War II

brought an end to shipping on the Tar. The river traffic never prospered after that. And the last freight boat used the Tar in 1950.

The first railroads in North Carolina were completed in 1840the 86-miles Raleigh and Gastonia Railroad (from

Raleigh to Gastonia), and the 161-miles long Wilmington and Weldon Railroad.

Then in 1882 Bethel received rail service when a branch line of the Raleigh and Albemarle Railroad was completed

On April 1, 1890, tracks of the Wilmington and Weldon

Railroad (also known as the Spotland Neck and Kinston linelater to become the Atlantic Coast Line or the current Seaboard Coast Line Railroad) reached Greenville. Six months later the railroad reached Kinston and regular service to Pitt County began.

Two years later, in 1892, the Washington Branch Line completed tracks between Washington and Parmelee and began service to Pactolus, Whichards Station and Stokes in Pitt, bringing life to those areas of the county. The first train (Contd on VI-10)

SHORTLY AFTER WORLD WAR II FORD MOTOR COMPANY DECIDED TO MAKE A BIG CHANGE. AT THAT TIME ALL FORDS, LINCOLNS, AND MERCURYS WERE SOLD AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP. THE CHANGE TO BE MADE WAS TO SELL FORDS AT ONE DEAL'ERSHIP AND LINCOLNS AND MERCURYS AT ANOTHER. IN 1947, MR. T.l. WAGNER OF FLANAGAN BUGGY COMPANY, THE FORD DEALER IN GREENVILLE, OBTAINED THE FRANCHISE OF THE LINCOLN AND MERCURY AUTOMOBILES.

In the fall of 1947, Mr. T. I. Wagner and Mr. Owen Marshbum formed the corporation of Wagner-Marshburn Motors, Inc. In May of 194t, the dealership opened in the building on Dickinson Avenue with 1^.a introduction of the 1949 automobiles.

In October, 194, Mr. Marshburn sold his interest in the business to Mr. J.E. Waldrop. At that time the dealership was named Wagner-Waldrop Motors, Inc.

Remembering The Way It Was

Bv BI.ANTHK HARDKK Rrnrctor SUff Writer

Two Pactolus residents sisters Miss Pattie and Miss Sidney Davenportremember hoM things used to be in Pitt County around the turn of the century. before modern technologv and specialization created the hustle-bustle world we live in today

Miss Pattie is 89 years old and still drives her car. Miss Sidney is 92.

I think the world would be better off if we never had automobiles. . even though 1 like cars," Miss Pattie said

The sisters, reflecting on how things used to be before cars. remember how life in the 1890s was centered around the river.

"There was a steamboat, the R.L. Myers, that used to run from Washington to Greenville if they could get there. The Tar River wasnt very deep then,"

Miss Sidney recalls. This was about 1890.

At this time, goods were shipped from the landing at Yankee Hall at Pactolus. The boat brought such items as shoes, clothing, food and necessary supplies.

The boat would blow its whistle so many times for each of the merchants when it arrived at the landing. Miss Sidney explained. They blew the whistle before the warehouse w as built so the merchants could pick up their goods before it rained on them.

Then a warehouse was built so the goods could be stored on the river until the merchants could pick them up Mail also came by boat.

All the communities in the area, including Grimesland. .Stokes and Bethel, got their mail from Yankee Hall.

They used to ship tar from

made its run in late spring of that year.

Then in February of 1897 the East Carolina Railroad began service out of Tarboro in Edgecombe County on a wooden tram road Later that year, in September, the short road changed to steel rails and the beginning of the rail expansion for that line was under way.

By 1901, the East Carolina line had reached Farmville, then was extended to Maury and Hookerton. That small line served to spur the growth of the Western portion of the county including Farmville, Fountain and the surrounding areas it served.

Initially a freight line, passenger service was soon added, and the frst passengers to Farmville were delivered August 1, 1901. Improved roads in the coming years, however, brou^t an end to passenger service on that line in 1927 and by 1935 traffic was such that the growing Atlantic Coast Line system took over its operations.

The last steam engine on the East Carolina tracks made its run in April 1957 and the last

train to move down the companys rails, before the East Carolina Railroad was dissolved, made its journey in November 1965.

I The Raleigh and East Carolina 'Railroad was formed in 1903 (later called the Raleigh and Pamlico Sound Railroad) to estaUish a line between Raleigh and Chocowinity, wdiere it would intersect with the Norfolk and Southern line.

Renamed the Norfolk and Southern, the tracks through Greenville and Pitt County were completed in 1907, serving the area with both freight and passenger service.

llie Atlantic Coast Line, which merged with Seaboard Air Line Railroad in 1967 to form the Seaboard Coast Line, served Greenville and other towns along its North-South route with four passenger trains daily.

In 1916-1917 the fare on the ACL from Greenville to Win-terville was 15 cents, one-way. To Ayden. passengers had to pay 25-cents and the fare to Kinston was 62-cents. Passenger traffic on the line was discontinued in 1941.

Yankee Hall, too.

There used to be a large tar bed at Yankee Hall, Miss Sidney said. It is gone now. It has disappered because the blacks used to cut the tar in strips to start their fires with.

The Davenports remember another boat that used to bring supplies and fertilizer to Pactolus from Norfolk, Va. The boat was called ^iloh.

Their father, James R. Davenport, owned a blacksmith shop that made buggies and coffins, a cotton gin and a farm as well as his general st(%.

Papa would go to Baltimore and New York to buy material for dresses for us. He would buy the boys clothing, too. Mama always had the material made into pretty dresses for us, Miss Pattie said. Shoe salesmen would come around and we would buy our shoes from them.

There were five brothers and two sisters in the family. The only living brother is Arthur. He went to the University of Maryland and became a dentist. He practiced in Baltimore until his retirement a few years back. He had lived in Greenville since February.

, Both women have lived in Pactolus all their lives.

Much of the furniture that is in their house is what their mother had as a bride. The house is more than 100 years old.

Miss Pattie was 14 years old when she went to college and Miss Sidney was 16. They both graduated from Womans College in Greensboro with teaching degrees.

Miss Sidney taught school some but Miss Pattie never did.

Women didnt get out in public then. Miss Pattie said. * The two got their early education from attending a private school that their father and two other merchants established. They hired a private teacher for nine children.

I^ter a larger school, three rooms, was built and more children were able to attend classes

Mother always told us there was an academy in Pactolus prior to her coming here, Miss Sidney said. Mothers homeplace was located where the Burroughs-Wellcome Plant is now.

Miss Sidney also remembers a

grist mill which was located in Pactolus.

"The miller would grind meal for everyone in the area, Miss Sidney said. "A part of the millers home is still standing.

"Local boys would use the mill pond for swimming and the area churches used the pond for baptismal services, Miss SidbMy said.

There were several cotton gins also.

Entertainment in those days included dancing, skating, horseback riding, and picnics.

"Mother used to tell us of tournaments where rings would be placed up and men on horseback would try to throw their lances through as many rings as possible, Miss Sidney said. *lhe boy who got the most rings was given the honor nf crowning the queen of his choice. All the boys worked hard to have their girl named queoi.

There were also house parties and boat rides at night.

We had dances and picnics at Yankee Hall. There was a pavilion and men playing stringed instruments pro\ided music for couples to dance by..

The picnics at the river became so popular they had to he discontinued, Miss Sidney said. The crowd was so large . . . people came from far and near to enjoy the food and music.

The two women also

remember many church parties that were held at Yankee Hall. Many churches from the GreenvUle area would go to the river for food and fellowship.

"I remember when Yankee Hall was a great place for recreation, Miss Pattie said. "There were stores and cellars there. All the business was at Yankee Hall.

In the early 1900s, there were five or six doctors in Pactolus, according to the Davenports.

We didnt have a dentist here. Miss Sidney explained. We had to go to Greenville to visit the dentist.

After the doctors had left Pactolus, the Davenports remember Dr. Dave Taylor coming to Pactolus on the train for short office hours.

Dr. Taylor would come and spend a few hours here seeing patients, Miss Sidney said. Then he would catch the train back to Washington.

The two sisters remember

coming to Greenville in the early 1900s to do shopping.

A man who lived on our fathers farm would drive us into town. Sometimes mama would drive the buggy herself, Miss Pattie explained. We would spend all ^y just shopping and browsing around.

With the coming of the railroad, we would go shopping in Washington. We could catch the train that morning, spend few hours Upping and ride the train back home that same day, Miss Sidney recalls.

Mama said Greenville was a good size town during the Civil War, Miss Pattie said. In the early 1900s Greenville had muddy streets. I remember driving through Greenvilles main street and the mud came up the the axle of the buggy.

We used to have to ford the stream to go to Greenville, Miss Sidney said. That was before the bridge was built. We had to hold our feet up to keep from getting them wet.

The Edenton Tea Party

(From North Carolina

History Told By Con

temporaries. Edited by Hugh Talmage Lefler, UNC Professor of History. University of North Carolina Press, 1948).

There father showed a great deal of interest in politics.

We always had to fix dinner and entertain candidates during their campaign stops in Pactolus, Miss Sidney noted. Papa worked hard on campaigns. He nver ran for political office himself but was always working for the other fellow.

Papa carried on so much business that he didnt have time to run for a pohtical office.

They remember meeting congressmen, lawy^ and other people on their way from Washington to Greenville by train. The train always stopped in Pactolus

THE EDENTON TEA PARTY.

On October 25, 1774, fifty-one Edenton ladies held a meeting and declared that they could not be indifferent to whatever affected the peace and happiness of the country. The |MX)vincial deputies of North Carolina had already resolved not to drink any more tea, or wear any more British cloth. The Edenton ladies, anxious to give proof of their patriotism, entered into the following association and discontinued use of East India tea. Miss Janet Schaw, who was traveling in North Carolina at the time, wrote, Tbe Ladies have burnt their tea in a solemn procession, but they had delayed, however, till the sacrifice was not very considerate, as I do not think any one offered above a quarter of a pound. (Journal of a Scotch Lady of Quality, p. 155.)

As we cannot be indifferent on any occasion that appears nearly to affect the peace and happiness of our country, and as it has been thought necessary, for the public good, to enter into several particular resolves by a meeting of members deputed from the whole province, it is a duty which we owe, not only to our near and dear connections, who have concurred in them, but to ourselves, who are essentially interested in their welfare, to do everything, as far as lies in our power, to testify our sincere adherence to the same; and we do therefore accordingly subscribe this paper as a witness of our fixed intention and solemn determination to do so:S.

A Change In Dating Customs

By ROSALIE TROTMAN Reflector Womap*! Editor Courting couples of 200 hun-red years ago might ivell have een accused of sparking, a olonial term equal to the resent day necking.

The later during the evening tiat a couple stayed up, the reater need of wood for the [replace. More wood led to more parks, the significance of which ras understood by knowing eighbors.

Transportation aiid roads rere primitive during the olonial era and the prospects of inding eligible mates was often imited. Thusly, courtship often nvolved young boys and girls rho lived near each other and rhoae families were known to ach other.

Proving that the problems of availability were present, riore so than today, could be een by matrimonial ads which rere sometimes printed in the ewspapers.

The planters of North Carolina njoyed fox hunting, horse acing, cock fighting, canoeing, ards, chess, billiards, dice and ther games. Despite the roads,, he planters traveled a lot, isually on horseback, to attend eligious meetings, militia nusters, court sessions and ther public meetings.

Dancing was the most enjoyed imusement of the planters. Ausic was furnished by a slave laying the fiddle while the lanters and their ladies and riends danced the Virginia reel, ninuet and square danced. Occasional house parties and set suppers were held by the ilanters and guests included ither planters and their amilies. Weddings didnt play in important role socially as hey did in later years, but good imes were held and festivities night last as long as a week. The larvesting of wheat, corn buckings, house raisings, the uilding of barns, quilting tarties and other gatherings ombined work and play.

These early j)lanters enjoyed ompany and thought that en-ertaining travelers was a social luty because there were few nns and taverns. There were ew ways of hearing news from he other colonies which was in urn provided by the travelers. Tiese sojourners were made welcome, indeed, and the lousekeeper set a fine table ising the best silver, china, linen ind the most tempting food. Stories of North Carolina lospitality were quick to spread o other regions.

The different social classes vere often in each others ;ompany at inns, churches, nilitia musters, court sessions ind other public gatherings.

'The wives of fanners par-icipated in quilting parties and

spinning matches. The farm men congregated at inns, stores, gristmills and blacksmith shops where they exchanged stories. In addition they enjoyed log rollings, shooting matches and pitching horse shoes in contests. Swimming and paddling canoes were enjoyed by both boys and girls.

With the forthcoming Revolutionary War, Americans begin their preparations for battle^n 1774, the Continental Congress requested the people to give up all expensive games and entertainment in the interest of economy and morale. The Wilmington Safety Committee followed Congress suggestion by calling off all card playing, horse racing, billiards and dancing, stating that the English Parliament would be convinced of our intentions if we gave up enjoyable pasttimes...

The yeoman class of small farmers and workers, even though life was hard and money scarce, sometimes enjoyed recreation in the forms of hunting and fishing, going to church, attending camp meetings, going to weddings, parties, shooting matches and at political meets. The younger men participated in wrestling, foot races, target shooting, and gander pulling. The women had their sewing and quilting parties.

Living in town offered more amusementsvisiting, gossip, strolling through the streets or meeting at the taverns, grog shop, store, and church.

Parental approval was a must before courting could start and was necessary before a couple could marry. Colonial court documents show that detailed contracts were frequently made for the purpose of specifying the fihancial terms and property rights of the couple to be married.

The early American family was a self-sufficient, extremely cooperative, rural, agricultural unit which operated with a materialistic and practical setting. Its internal organization was largely based on two principles, familism and patriarchial authoritarianism. The most important values in marriage were staying married, producing children and continuing to exist in spirit of merciless natural forces that made existence difficult, said Dr. Miriam Moore, dean of the School of Home Economics, E:ast Carolina University.

In those days, a man needed a wife and children. 'They were economic assets. It was said that a good catch for a young bachelor before the industrial revolution was the healthy widow with six children, for he would have suddenly acquired 14 hands to help him, she added.

For the woman, too, there was a satisfaction in a stable marriage relationriiip and in working hard to make the marriage stable. A womans very existence depended upon her husband and her emotional satisfaction came from serving him and seeing to it that he had cleaner shirts and better food than the neighboring husbands, Dr. Moore stated.

Ancient and stale were used to describe the status of young women who were not married by the time they reached their 20s.

Historians have pointed out that no particular marriage ritual existed in the early colonial era. The home of the bride was the usual scene of a marriage ceremony. However by the 18th century, weddings were the time for revelry and festivness. Gifts were presented to the couple, drinking and dancing were enjoyed, muskets were fired and jokes such as bride stealing were the order of the day.

The colonial habit of keeping a diary has provided some written

records of courtship.

Prior to the age of the automobile, young men wanted a driving horse to be used for special occasions such as calling on his girl.

The automobile has enlarged the dating area of young men so that today one may drive 100 miles and back to visit a girl in no more time than it took grandfather to drive 10 miles with a horse. 'The airplane is still a faster means of travel to and from dates or just taking a girl out for a ride.
