to assure an enjoyable meal.
These eighth graders are going
to be very self conscious, knowing
that everybody at the High school
is looking them over and sizing
them up. That’s the penalty of
growing up, or should we say one
of the many penalties.
Of course, the worse is yet to
come, if you can call it that. Next
September, when these students
come back to our campus and en
roll as freshmen, they wilt feel
like peasants mingling with royal
ty. If they don’t feel that way,
some upper classman will try to
put them in this frame of mind.
Even high and mighty Seniors
were once freshmen, however, and
what next year’s freshmen have to
endure was endured by the Seniors
themselves a few short years ago.
The track team is all excited
about its meet with Camp Le-
jeune High of the Seashore Con
ference today, and even more so
about the Northeastern Conference
meet in Greenville on Wednesday.
And the Pop Concert on May 14
is just around the corner.
Cash Still Needed
For Cancer Battle
Recent days have been busy ones
for workers in the fund-raising
Cancer Crusade. Bearing much of
the load, but ably assisted by oth
ers, have been the local chairman,
Burke Taylor, and Mrs. Frank
Wade, executive secretary.
Any doubts that New Bernians
might have about the value of re
search and- enlightenment in fight
ing the dread disease can be erased
with this simple statement of fact.
In 1918 only three cancer victims
in 30 were saved. Today, 10 out of
30 cancer victims in America re
cover.
There’s still much to be done,
and it takes money to do it. Your
contribution is vitally needed.
Although science has not yet
found the final answer to the can
cer problem, the American Cancer
Society says that intensive re
search has procedures and more
powerful and more effective radia
tion which have resulted in a
higher cure rate.

Rose Revue to Be
Talent Display in
Shape of Bouquet
All is bustle and stir at the Mar
garet Rose Dance Studio on Spen
cer Avenue these days.
Shiny satins, sparkling nets
yards and yards of lace and rib
bons, along with colorful flowers,
are being made into beautiful cos
tumes for the 12th annual revue—
appropriately titled “One Dozen
Roses.” The show comes off May
8, at the New Bern High school
auditorium.
Little boys and girls, age 4 and
5, are merrily practicing their
dance, which opens the entertain
ing one-night performance. Larger
boys and girls up to 16 years of
age are polishing their tap, toe and
acrobatic routines.
Posters have been placed down
town, and ticket sales have been
brisk. - Staged in three acts this
year, the revue will be shorter and
faster moving, with plenty of zip.
With the garden setting, the
show will cover a calendar of
events occurring during the win
ter, spring and summer seasons.
Providing the prologue will be the
pre-school class consisting of Nell
Humienny, Patricia Moore, Stanley
Humienny, Tommy Moore, Ann Ca-
ton, Lucinda Kellum, Jimmy Cay-
ton, Nancy Williams and Christine
Novak. The boys are gardeners
and the girls are beautiful spring
daffodils.
Garden Club Urges
Clean-Up Activity
Cities, like houses, can use a
good cleaning when spring arrives.
Feeling thusly, the New Bern Gar
den club has been prevailing on
residents to tidy up the community
during its Clean Up, Paint Up, Fix
Up campaign this week.
Dame Nature doesn’t belong to
the Garden club, but she got the
campaign off to a good start with
weather that was ideal for spruc
ing things up.
Of course, for those who couldn’t
be bothered it was also ideal weath
er for a shady spot and a book or
a snooze.
Self-conquest is the greatest of
victories.—Plato.

Perfect Record Is
Not Likely to Be
Spoiled by Couple
Come what may, there’s very lit
tle likelihood that Harry Vatz and
his wife will ever get a divorce.
To begin with, they’ve been hap
pily married for 23 years. But
something else makes the union
doubly solid. You see, the man who
maried them. Rabbi Sam Freedman
of Wilmington, has never had so
much as a single parting of the
ways among the couples he has
joined in matrimony.
“We wouldn’t want to spoil that
record,” Mrs. Vatz commented last
weekend, when the State’s Jewish
groups were holding their annual
conventions here. Harry readily
agreed.
Incidentally, Rabbi Freedman
Was one of the many leaders at
tending the sessions.
Jaws Large Enough
To Catch Football
Football is a year-round sport
for Inkie, a 105-pound weimaraner
owned by A. D. Laughinghouse, op
erator of the CCC service station
here.
Just a year and a half old, the
big dog wants no part of chasing
sticks or rubber balls. Instead, she
catches a regulation size football
in her giant jaws.
She and Laughinghouse have
quite a time of it, down at his
Reelbboro home. Inkie is still ask
ing for more tossing, long after A.
D. throws in the towel.
There are very few welmaraners
in this area, although Emily Craw
ford has one of the handsome
canines. President Eisenhower is
a weimaraner fan, too. His dog is.

SCIENTISTS SEEK CURE
More than 1,000 top-flight scien
tists in 127 hospitals, universities,
and laboratories throughout the
United States are working under
research grants from the Ameri
can Cancer Society, seeking new
cures for cancer. Working with
them are some 3,000 younger men
